It was a sunny day. Liu Yanran brought the four Lin Feng brothers to the Friendship Store. She was going to buy some new clothes for them and Xiao Yunduo. The store was bustling with people. While Liu Yanran was selecting clothes, she chatted with the children, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.
At this moment, a foreigner suddenly came over, speaking fluent French. The waiters were confused and had no idea what he was saying. They could only communicate with him awkwardly in English, but it seemed that both sides were not on the same channel at all, and the scene was very awkward.
At this time, the foreign friend had begun to become a little anxious. Liu Yanran learned from his words that he had lost his daughter and was very worried about his child.
Seeing this scene, Liu Yanran felt a strong sense of responsibility. Without hesitation, she stepped forward and spoke to the foreigner in fluent French: "Comment puis-je vous aider?" (How can I help you?)
The foreigner hurriedly said, "I'm worried about my daughter, and I'm lost. I'm worried about her."
The friend excitedly grabbed Liu Yanran's hand and said, "Someone can speak French! That's great, we can find my daughter!"
Liu Yanran looked at the person who was speaking and found a gentle woman who was looking at them anxiously. So, she asked in fluent French, "Madam, what does your daughter look like? What kind of clothes is she wearing?"
When the lady heard that Liu Yanran could speak perfect French, she immediately described her daughter's appearance. After listening, Liu Yanran turned to the waiter at the Friendship Store and said, "Could you please broadcast it on the radio and see if anyone has seen this lady's daughter?"
The waiters nodded and hurried to the broadcast room to announce the search for the girl. Considering the language barrier, Liu Yanran decided to wait with her friend. Less than ten minutes later, the gentle woman reappeared, accompanied by a little girl who looked like a Barbie doll.
The foreign friend looked at Liu Yanran gratefully. "Thank you so much! I'm going back home soon. Could you recommend some meaningful souvenirs for me to bring back?"
It turned out that this foreigner came to China with her husband for cultural exchange. Since she was about to return home, she brought her daughter out to buy some souvenirs.
Liu Yanran smiled and introduced the exquisite Suzhou embroidery and the comfort of old Beijing cloth shoes to her foreign friend, who listened with great interest and often exclaimed in admiration. He was also attracted by other traditional Chinese handicrafts and bought many of them.
The foreign friend expressed gratitude to Liu Yanran, "Thank you, Ma'am. I love these gifts. They are all treasures of Chinese culture. I will definitely bring them back to my country and share Chinese culture and art with my family and friends."
Hearing this, Liu Yanran was overjoyed. She smiled and replied, "You're welcome. This is what I should do. I'm also very proud that you have learned about and fallen in love with traditional Chinese culture. I hope our cultural exchanges can become more frequent and benefit more people."
The foreign friends smiled and nodded in agreement. Then they said goodbye to each other and left.
After parting with their foreign friends, Liu Yanran continued shopping with her four children: Lin Feng, Lin Yu, Lin Lei, and Lin Dian. As they walked, Lin Feng couldn't help but ask, "Sister, what did that foreigner just say? It's so strange, I've never heard that before."
Liu Yanran patiently explained, "That's French, the language of another country. If you're interested, you can learn more about it later."
Lin Feng nodded thoughtfully, then asked, "Sister, how come you can speak this language? Have you learned it?"
Liu Yanran smiled and replied, "Yes, I studied French for a while, so I can understand and communicate in a simple way. Besides, learning different languages is also a way to increase knowledge and help us better understand the world."
After hearing this, Lin Feng's eyes sparkled with longing. He said seriously, "Wow, then I must also study foreign languages well so that I can communicate with foreigners like my sister in the future!"
Liu Yanran touched Lin Feng's head and encouraged him, "Okay, as long as you are willing to study hard, you can do it. But now, let's go buy clothes first and see if there are any styles that suit you." After that, Liu Yanran took them to the children's clothing area.
Lin Feng felt as if he had met a kind-hearted God. Not only was his sister's health cured, he and his brother also had a place to live, and his sister even sent them to school.
Lin Feng didn't choose any clothes in the children's clothing section. Although he wanted to wear new clothes, his sister's money didn't come from the wind. "Sister, our clothes can still be worn. Don't waste this money."
When Liu Yanran heard Lin Feng's words, her heart softened. She squatted down, looked at Lin Feng and said gently, "Xiaofeng, how can this be called a waste? You are growing up and need clothes that fit you well. Besides, I also hope that you can dress beautifully."
