Old Movies of the Republic of China(8)

Hearing the stranger's visit, Li Liuli was stunned, then turned to ask the housekeeper: "What is the origin of this person?"

This is not about asking her what her profession is, but where she comes from.

The housekeeper whispered: "Her father works in the government, and she has met the old man several times."

It also means that we have only met each other, but have never had any in-depth interactions. It is a bit strange to have such a relationship.

Li Liuli frowned, she didn't come early or late, but it was time for her family to go abroad. What did this mean? Could it be her confidante who was being provoked outside. There was a slight smile on her face.

After collecting it, he asked: "How old is this reporter Xu?"

Lin Yutong paused while holding the tea cup and immediately understood what Li Liuli was thinking. She pretended not to understand anything and just held the cup in her hand in a daze.

The housekeeper's heart skipped a beat. He had never thought about this before. So he glanced at Lin Yutong from the corner of his eye, as if he thought it was inconvenient to say that there was an outsider here. But in the end he whispered: "She looks like she is in her twenties."

,very young."

As for temperament, let alone her. Being able to work as a reporter and a professional woman means she is a trendy figure.

The expression on Li Liuli's face became even calmer, and he just nodded: "Since you're here, let's call you in. You're a guest here."

The housekeeper wiped the sweat from his head and then turned around and went out. Lin Yutong stood up to say goodbye. A guest came to visit someone else's house and it was not appropriate for him to stay. No matter who Xu Lihua came for, she looked like she didn't know what she was doing.

, just do your own thing. Then he said: "Then I will go back first. There is still some time before I leave, and there is still a chance to meet."

Li Liuli pulled Lin Yutong, "I originally wanted to talk to you. It seems that I can only find another opportunity."

"Then another day. I'll come over another day and we can talk slowly." Lin Yutong agreed casually.

The two of them came out of the main hall hand in hand, and happened to come face to face with Xu Lihua.

"Is Dr. Lin leaving?" Xu Lihua said with a smile, "In fact, half of the reason why I took the liberty to come here this time is to ask Mrs. Chen to introduce you to me. I want to get acquainted with such a brilliant doctor like you. I have made a plan.

It’s not a day anymore.”

Lin Yutong seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then suddenly said: "Oh...I remember, you are the reporter."

Li Liuli raised his eyebrows. It didn't look like a mistress came to the door. He couldn't help but look at Lin Yutong doubtfully: "Do you know each other?"

Lin Yutong hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I met her once before I was in a hurry. You may not know that this Miss Xu is a woman like no other. She is a field reporter who dares to brave the flames of war to go to the front line for interviews."

"Really?" Li Liuli couldn't help but look at Miss Xu again, "It's really disrespectful."

Xu Lihua waved her hands repeatedly: "Thank you for your praise! Compared with Dr. Lin's skillful hands and benevolence, I, the one who uses the pen, is really nothing."

Lin Yutong smiled: "Let's stop complimenting each other." He waved to Li Liuli and said, "You have distinguished guests, so I won't disturb you." He nodded to Xu Lihua, "Then I'll take the first step."

"Doctor Lin!" Xu Lihua stretched out her hand to grab Lin Yutong's arm. She thought she would be sure to pull it, but she didn't expect that her hand even touched her clothes, but she couldn't grab anything. She was stunned for a moment, but her arm was still stretched out.

He tried to block Lin Yutong's way, "Doctor Lin, what I just said was not a polite word. I really want to ask Mrs. Chen to introduce us to the two of us. Since we met by chance, it is also our fate. Please give me some advice."

How about I give you a favor and stay half an hour longer?"

His posture was so low, and he was in the Chen family in front of the master. It was impossible not to give him this face.

However, Li Liuli felt that Xu Lihua was too forceful in her actions. Why did she want to borrow the Chen family's face? Her actions were too unethical.

The three of them returned to the living room again in different moods.

Xu Lihua obviously felt that Li Liuli's attitude towards her was not as good as before, but that didn't matter. The Chen family was just a bridge, and it was good to maintain a good relationship, but it didn't matter if there was no way to win the favor of his family.

She first politely told Li Liuli her first reason for coming this time: "I heard that your government is going... to go abroad. I have some things that I would like to ask you to send to me. I also have many teachers and friends in the United States.

, they still have some status and energy in the United States. I have to trouble Mrs. Chen."

The implication is that although I asked you to run errands, I also indirectly introduced you to connections and did not cause your Chen family to suffer.

A trace of disdain flashed through Li Liuli's heart. She was in China, but that didn't mean she didn't know what was going on outside. Friendships and connections. In the United States, if you have money, you have connections. If you don't have money, no one will recognize who you are. It's just that all of this has to go.

, the other party's father is in the government department, she feels that it is not worthwhile to offend someone, what should she do if someone tampered with her behind her at this time. Besides, many servants who are attached to the Chen family cannot leave this time, and they have to stay in

Living here, she won't offend others easily. She just smiled reservedly: "Oh! So that's what happened. It's not worth anything. We have to thank Reporter Xu."

Xu Lihua was very satisfied with Li Liuli's reaction, and then she talked about the second thing. She looked at Lin Yutong, "This second thing is to get to know Dr. Lin. I was in a hurry before, and I didn't know how to find Dr. Lin."

, by chance, I found out that Dr. Lin and Mrs. Chen had a close friendship. So I shamelessly approached him."

Lin Yutong always had a smile on her face, but at this moment, she was completely sure that this reporter Xu Lihua came for her. He even deliberately wanted to get close to her. What does the Chen family mean by helping carry things?

Excuse. In order to find a glorious reason to know yourself and get close to yourself.

So, does this mean that the relationship between this female reporter and the Blue Clothes Club may not be so simple?

Lin Yutong knew what he was thinking, and his face became serious: "You are so anxious to find me? Why? Is there a patient at home?"

The look on Xu Lihua's face froze slightly. Why did this person talk like this?

Li Liuli felt relieved, and didn't care about Xu Lihua's attitude just now. There was a patient in the family, and if she was eager to have a relationship, it was okay, it was human nature.

Seeing that Xu Lihua was silent, Lin Yutong explained to Li Liuli in a low voice: "Those who are in a hurry to find a doctor are the patients' family members. But I didn't expect that they would find you here..."

Before she could finish her words, Xu Lihua said quickly: "Dr. Lin misunderstood, not because of the patient. It was... the newspaper. The newspaper wanted to make an appointment with Dr. Lin about infectious diseases. The general public should know more common sense..."

I found this reason...

Lin Yutong looked at Xu Lihua in astonishment: "This matter? Are you still so anxious?" After speaking, he smiled at Li Liuli, "Reporter Xu is really dedicated."

Xu Lihua smiled sheepishly: "The main reason is... I heard what Dr. Lin said last time, and it seemed that I had some misunderstandings about our newspaper. So, I am afraid that you will refuse if I rashly ask for a manuscript."

It seems that this explanation is quite reasonable. China has been a society based on personal relationships since ancient times. There are rules and regulations that cannot be followed. I just think that human relationships are easier to talk about.

Lin Yutong smiled. She had no intention of agreeing, let alone having an unclear relationship with them. So she said with some embarrassment: "I have a manuscript about disease prevention and control, and I have already planned to find a publisher to publish it. If your newspaper really has it,

If you wish to publish it, you can excerpt it from the book." But I will never write a manuscript for them. Once this thing is related, it will be unclear.

Xu Lihua didn't expect to get such an answer. It would be better to say that a friend or a friend's family member is sick. This way, she has many contacts. This is also a ghost. This woman looks kind and talks with a smile, but

She was not as easy-going as she seemed at all. On the contrary, she felt that this woman was really difficult to deal with and not easy to deal with at all.

After saying a few more words, Lin Yutong looked at the watch on his wrist, "It's been half an hour. I really have to go."

Li Liuli had never seen Lin Yutong reject someone so far away from thousands of miles ago. This really didn't save anyone's face at all. Just now, when people said they would stay for half an hour, it was just a polite word. But after half an hour, she

Not only did she leave immediately, but she also pointed out the time. This was obviously a refusal to have a close relationship with this person. After understanding the meaning, she stood up and said, "I'll take you out." After saying that, she nodded to Xu Lihua: "Xu Lihua

Reporter, please sit down for a moment while I come and go."

The two walked out of the door. Li Liuli looked around and then asked Lin Yutong: "Why don't you want to see this person so much?"

Lin Yutong couldn't say that this might really be a spy with a special mission. He could only smile and said: "Because his parents are prettier than me and their auras are not harmonious. It doesn't look pleasing to the eye, okay?"

"Okay! Why not?" Li Liuli smiled, "I don't feel comfortable with this person's words. He is too strong."

Because there was Xu Lihua waiting in the living room, the two of them didn't delay much outside the door. Lin Yutong got into the car sent by the Chen family, waved to Li Liuli, and the car started.

It's not good to live in an alley because cars can't get in.

Get off the car at the street corner and walk slowly in. When she meets Grandma Liu who is working in a tea house across from her shop, she stops Lin Yutong: "...the shop has been ruined by someone else. That old Yangtou's nephew doesn't know how to do it at all."

It's a business. You have to be careful that he can't pay the rent."

He is talking about Xiao Yang who is renting his own shop now.

Lin Yutong glanced at the shop and saw Xiao Yang leaning outside the shop, just around the corner. He didn't stare at the shop much, but seemed to stare more in the direction of his own door.

At this moment, Lin Yutong looked at him, but he was turning his face to look into the alley. He did not realize that Lin Yutong was not far away and was discussing him with someone.

Seeing Grandma Liu pointing at Xiao Yang, she smiled and said, "You can make money if you have your own way of doing business."

Grandma Liu curled her lips: "That's right, young people have a lot of wisdom nowadays."

Lin Yutong said goodbye to Grandma Liu and then walked towards her home. Seeing that Xiao Yang still didn't turn around, she walked over with a smile and said, "Xiao Yang!"

Xiao Yang was startled, and turned around to see Lin Yutong, with a slightly uncomfortable look on his face.

"Landlady." Xiao Yang called out dryly.

Lin Yutong pretended not to see anything, but said enthusiastically: "Have you fallen in love with a girl? Look at her greedy look. Just being greedy is useless, you have to do a good business and be able to support your family, good girl

There’s a queue waiting for you to choose.”

Xiao Yang smiled naively, then scratched his head, as if he had really peeked at the girl just now.

While the two were talking, a man appeared from the other side of the corner and coughed uncomfortably.

I know this person, Lin Yutong, who lives across the street from her house. She is a woman, everyone calls her Sister Chun. She looks like she is in her twenties, and she rents a room on the second floor across from the door. The window of that room is the same as that of Lin Yutong and Fourth Master’s room.

That's right. This person comes back at two or three o'clock every night. Lin Yutong will naturally know when her light is on. Sister Chun seems to be a dancer. Because she works at night, she doesn't meet many. It's been such a long time since she moved here.

I have met him a few times, but never so directly face to face.

"Is Mrs. Yin going out?" Sister Chun asked, but her eyes looked at Xiao Yang.

Lin Yutong responded with his mouth, but his eyes were observing the reactions of the two people. Looking at Sister Chun like this, it was obvious that she heard her conversation with Xiao Yang, misunderstood Xiao Yang, and thought that the person Xiao Yang was silently paying attention to was her. Lin Yutong smiled inwardly.

, looked at Sister Chun, and saw that it was not a very hot day, but she was only wearing a short-sleeved light purple cheongsam, revealing her plump white arms. The slits of the cheongsam were above the knees, and her feet were slit.

On top is a pair of white shallow leather shoes. They look extremely modern, but upon closer inspection, you can see that the economic conditions are not as good as they look. There are creases on the cheongsam, and it doesn't fit her well. If I guessed correctly, this should

I got them from a used clothes stall or a pawn shop. The leather shoes on my feet have some peeling on the uppers, and the position of the heels can be easily seen. I have asked a shoe repairman to repair them many times. The last thing is the stockings, which are now

Only a few people can afford these stockings, which can be called luxury goods. The imported stockings are very thin and are called glass stockings. Lin Yutong has never bought them herself and does not know the specific price. But she has seen domestic ones in department stores.
