Siheyuan: I am a trader in both worlds!

Chapter 78 What a great article!
"Look down on you? You can see through all this?"

clap clap clap!
He slapped her three times in a row, which was extremely insulting.

Bai Ling continued.

"With your IQ, it's not easy!"

"Bai Ling, you."

Ximen Lang started to speak incoherently for a while.

Bai Ling asked regarding the previous question.

"Who on earth told you that Teacher Yan's monthly salary is 27 yuan?"

"Of course, this is what Old Yan told me himself!"

"Do you believe what he said?"

He accidentally silenced Ximen Lang again.

Bai Ling and Ximen Lang explained.

"Let's not even mention that Teacher Yan had already been teaching for several years before liberation. Even after liberation, from liberation to now, it's been at least six years, right?"

"Of course there is. It's already past October."

"Yes, six years, and during this special period when intellectuals were extremely scarce. He's really a pig. After raising him for so long, he should have gained weight, right?"

"And you said he was living in poverty. Do you know how much that orchid of his could sell for?"

"How many?"

"A pot of orchids costs ten yuan! How many matchboxes would someone else have to paste to make up for his ten yuan? Not to mention, he did all the hard work for you." (Third Aunt said this herself: ten yuan a pot.)
"So, according to you, this Teacher Yan is very rich?"

There was something wrong with Ximen Lang's voice when he spoke.

Bai Ling said with interest.

"Why, are you planning to rob the rich and give to the poor?"

You know what, Ximen Lang actually has this idea now.

"I'll kill all the four-eyed guys first, then kill all these bastard neighbors, and finally I'll take over this place."

Halfway through his speech, Ximen Lang couldn't continue.

Yes, how could someone who couldn't bear to watch a chicken being killed say such cruel words in front of others?
Besides, it all came down to his own stupidity. After reading so many fan fictions that said the Third Uncle only had such a low salary, he actually believed it!
You have no doubt about it, who can you blame?

Not to mention, there were other reasons why Yan Bugui told everyone that he only earned 27 yuan.

I thought of the Third Uncle’s hardship, which was neither serious nor trivial, but extremely troublesome.

Ximen Lang asked Bai Ling.

"Bai Ling, is Teacher Yan's family background not good?"

It turned out that nothing could be hidden from Ximen Lang, who relied on the fact that he had already known the details of everyone in the courtyard for generations.

Bai Ling replied.

"You can't say it's bad, right? It's just not very mainstream."

"How to say?"

"From his personal conversation and his cousin's work, you should be able to tell that his family used to have a solid foundation."

"Of course, they can't reach the level of capitalists, but a small business owner can't escape it."

In fact, Bai Ling didn't understand why Yan Bugui was so cautious. It was just a matter of determining a component, and he didn't really do anything to him. Why was he so nervous?

"Yeah, why are you so nervous? It's so confusing."

Of course, Ximen Lang couldn't be stupid enough to tell Bai Ling what would happen next.

I just sighed silently in my heart.

"Scholars these days really shouldn't be underestimated."

After laughing, Ximen Lang directly turned the topic to the deaf old lady he had always been curious about.

"Hey, Bai Ling, what do you think of the deaf old lady in our hospital?" Ximen Lang was really curious about this mysterious deaf old lady.

The reason is simple: the identities assigned to her by the fan community are simply too many and too outrageous.

Some said that she was a remnant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, some said that she was from the bald side, and some even gave her the identity of Yoshiko Kawashima!
The relationship with Yi Zhonghai, the main force of the retirement group, is even more complicated.

Some wrote that they were aunt and niece, some wrote that they were mother and son, and some wrote that they were master and servant.

Or, simply put, they are superiors and subordinates who are lurking around to cause sabotage.

Yi Zhonghai was on guard duty and the deaf old lady was sending the message.

The most outrageous thing is that they directly describe their relationship as an eye-catching patron-guest relationship!

This guy shocked Ximen Lang. He washed his eyes several times before he could digest this information with difficulty.

Then, Ximen Lang was troubled by these fan works.

The key is that if you don't think carefully and just follow the author's ideas, you will really think that what they write makes some sense.

In addition, as mentioned earlier, the fledgling Ximen Lang had no problem with eyesight at all.

He had lived in the courtyard for so many days, but he still couldn't figure out what was going on.

So he came to Bai Ling to seek answers.

As for Bai Ling, who had only been working for a few years, she was actually a little unsure about the shrewd and cunning deaf old lady.

But it doesn’t matter. Even if she’s not sure, there’s still Lao Luo and Director Wang.

So, there was no difficulty at all.

However, in just a few days, the deaf old lady was thoroughly investigated.

Her true identity was certainly not an enemy spy, not even as outrageous as Yoshiko Kawashima.

So who is she?
To sum it up in one sentence
"A concubine kept outside by a wealthy family."

Yes, if you really count it, she is not even a concubine.

As for the rumor circulating online that the entire courtyard house was used by a wealthy family to support her.
Are you kidding me?
Such a big house?

Feed her?

Don't talk nonsense.

It was just that she was old and faded, and when they ran away they were too lazy to take the trouble to take her with them. They just let her act like a servant, helping to look after the house.

But when this person left, he went to Taiwan.

The house naturally fell into her name.

Until a few years ago, such a large house was too spacious and unpopular.

It just so happened that the street office was also vigorously calling on and encouraging each household to rent out their idle houses to solve some of the housing shortage problems. The street office would also give certain rewards depending on the situation.

Then, the deaf old lady made the best decision in her life.

Except for the main house in the backyard which she had never lived in, she donated all the rooms nearby.

After that, she was managed by the street office for the rest of her life.

Seeing that the deaf old lady who was talked about so much on the Internet was actually so ordinary, Ximen Lang said with regret.

"I prepared a great article specifically for her. What a pity."

After being questioned by Bai Ling for a long time, Ximen Lang finally took out this magnificent article and read it.

"There is a deaf old lady in Nanluoguxiang, she is seventy-four years old. She is gentle and kind, and highly respected. She is respectfully called "the chief ancestor" in the courtyard.

The old ancestor loved delicious food, so his neighbors gave him theirs. He loved fine clothes, so his neighbors gathered cloth to sew for him and showed him respect. He doted on Sun Yuzhu, so much so that the neighbors retreated when they saw him, not daring to say anything. It's said that when the old ancestor was young, he wove shoes to give to the Red Army. Even though the army hadn't entered the city, he still gave them the shoes, which shows how great his kindness was.

As the ancestor grew older, his prestige grew. From the octogenarian to the child, anyone holding a cane could strike him. The elderly, the weak, and the sick trembled in fear at the sound of the cane, and dared not avoid the cane's attack. The ancestor was truly worthy of his name.

As the old and the new take over, we never forget our roots. This place is truly fortunate to have such an ancestor in this new world, so I wrote this article in praise of him. May our ancestors live forever!
