Siheyuan: Walking the Path of Qin Huairu

Then everyone sang together again, with Teacher Xu directing. The others followed Teacher Xu's rhythm, singing at the top of their lungs, singing with passion and high morale, pushing the atmosphere in the tavern to a climax.

It has to be said that humans are social animals. There is no one who doesn't like the hustle and bustle. Even the calmest people will be infected and brought into the rhythm in such occasions.

After the chorus ended, someone shouted, "Manager Xu, why don't you sing a song too?" Everyone started to cheer and asked her to sing a song.

Xu Huizhen likes singing, and she couldn't help but want to try it out. She found a song from the period in her memory, "China, China, the bright red sun never sets," and sang it.

China, China, magnificent mountains and rivers

The Yangtze River is surging, Kunlun Mountains are towering

……

China, China, the bright red sun never sets

Xu Huizhen's voice is like mountain stream, clear and moving. She is full of emotion, generous and natural, and her hands are clapping to the rhythm. Everyone can't help but clap along with her. Suddenly the atmosphere becomes lively again.

After the song was sung, everyone cheered. Teacher Xu asked, "Manager Xu, what song is this? How come I have never heard of it before?"

Xu Huizhen blinked her big eyes and asked, "Have you never heard of it?" Everyone said they hadn't heard of it. It's over. Just thinking that this is a red song of the era, it should have been released quite early, but she didn't know the specific year. Is this going to cause trouble? Others are easy to fool, and Teacher Xu Hesheng is well-informed.

She had no choice but to say, "I heard someone singing this song when I was in my hometown. The name of the song is 'China, the bright red sun never sets.'" She couldn't say that she made it up herself. What if the original author had already created it and it just hadn't been widely circulated? Wouldn't that be even more troublesome?

Teacher Xu said thoughtfully: "So that's why we haven't heard it before. But the lyrics of this song are very inspiring." Everyone nodded, with an expression of sudden enlightenment. Pian Ye said with interest: "This song is really good. Can Manager Xu teach us when you have time?"

Xu Huizhen said: "No problem, as long as everyone wants to learn, I will teach them."

After she finished speaking, she patted her frightened heart. She was a little reckless today and almost exposed her fox tail. It seems that she should think twice before doing anything in the future and not make the same mistake again.

Speaking of singing, although she was tone-deaf in her previous life, she loved listening to songs and could sing a lot of songs. Songs of the times, patriotic songs, songs about national unity, and songs about flowers and brocade, there were too many of them. Publishing songs was also a way to make money!

After three seconds of excitement, she suddenly became discouraged. Thinking carefully, if her actions were too powerful, she would be classified as a member of the stinking ninth category or the black fifth category when the movement came. There were opportunities and minefields everywhere! Xu Hui really felt like an old lady with bound feet. She would stumble three times with every step she took.

Life is so twisted. How could the time-travelling god send himself back to the 1950s? Not only do I have poor food, but I am also mentally constrained.

Even if I have earth-shattering abilities and a brilliant way to make money, I have no platform to display them. Even if I travel back to the 1970s, it would be fine. If I persisted for a few years, there would be reform and opening up. Alas, who can I complain to?

At night, just as Xu Huizhen lay down to sleep, the system's mechanical voice sounded again: "Ding Dong, the host rescued the injured old lady today, which is a kind of helping others and upholding justice. The system rewards 50 kilograms of pork, 200 kilograms of rice, and 200 kilograms of cornmeal. The prizes have been stored in the emergency space, please check them."

After hearing this, Xu Huizhen jumped up from the bed, and with a thought, she entered the space. Wow, there were 20 bags of food neatly stacked in the warehouse, and red and white fresh pork was placed in a bamboo basket. The system is really awesome, there are rewards for doing good things, this surprise came too suddenly, people are not prepared.

Since she was here, she took a look at the vegetable garden and picked the ripe cucumbers and tomatoes and stored them in the space first. After a period of verification, the space has the function of keeping fresh. For example, after the frozen seafood was put in last time, it has been in a frozen state, and the food in the kitchen will not rot or deteriorate. Everything in the warehouse remains the same, and this function provides her with a lot of convenience.

After returning to bed, Xu Huizhen secretly made up her mind to do more good deeds and uphold justice in the future so that she could live a good life with enough food and clothing.

Also, I have to bring some things to see Mrs. Wen tomorrow. All these rewards from the system are due to the old lady's injury. As the saying goes: When you drink water, don't forget the well digger. People should know how to be grateful.

The next morning, Xu Huizhen carried her child, one pound of meat, five pounds of rice, and five pounds of cornmeal, and walked to the old lady's house. Don't blame her for being stingy. Giving so many things is a lot these days. Food is in limited supply, and if you bring too much, people won't dare to take it.

According to the address Cai Quanwu gave her, she pushed the door and entered the courtyard. This was a quadrangle courtyard with three main rooms and two side rooms. There were three side rooms on each side, plus three back rooms. The courtyard was also very spacious. At first glance, the architectural style and decoration were more high-end and grand than Xu Huizhen's courtyard.

Xu Huizhen shouted loudly, "Excuse me, is this Mrs. Wen's house?"

Mrs. Wen's voice came from the room: "Who's here? Come in if you have something to say. I have difficulty walking."

Xu Huizhen said, "Aunt, I'm Xu Huizhen from the tavern. I came to see if anyone needs help." Then she walked into the main room.

Mrs. Wen came out of the inner room with a cane. Xu Huizhen looked at Mrs. Wen in front of her. She looked to be in her forties or even fifties. In this era, fifty was considered an old woman. Although her face was covered with the vicissitudes of time, it was not difficult to see that she must have been a beauty when she was young. Nonsense, how could a woman who could marry a capitalist be Zhu Bajie's second aunt?

Xu Huizhen stepped forward to support Mrs. Wen and said, "Aunt, your leg is injured, please sit on the bed. I was afraid that you couldn't go out to buy food, so I brought you some rice to make porridge. I also brought you a pound of pork to nourish your body."

Mrs. Wen held Xu Huizhen's hand, tears welling up in her eyes. Since her husband died and her two sons went abroad, she has been alone and few people care about her. However, many people have their eyes on her house.

After they sat down, Mrs. Wen said, "Thank you so much for yesterday, otherwise I don't know what I would do."

Xu Huizhen: "Neighbors, we should help each other. I didn't know you before, but I heard about your situation yesterday. I was afraid that no one would take care of you at home, so I came here! You probably also heard about my situation. Now I am alone with a child. We can be considered to be in the same boat."

These words brought the two closer together.
