When Lao Zhou heard this, he shook his head and said, "Don't learn from him. People like him are too ignorant to commit many sins and won't get far."
"Go and invite the Lin family to come to our house for dinner."
Chen Wu got two pounds of meat and went back to show off to Xu Yin: "What do you want to do with this meat?"
"Braised." Xu Yin said.
Chen Wu looked at the red ginseng water in the pot: "Why are you boiling so much?"
"Lu Ye's health is not good, so he needs some warming up." Xu Yin said, "I'm going to go to the county town to buy a thermos and get him a special one for holding red ginseng water."

"If you learn, you will also be virtuous. At the very least, you won't marry a widow."
She didn't think studying was that useful, she just wanted to contradict Feng Fangpi.
