"I'm your Cantonese teacher Lu Sinian, and today is our first lesson."
Lu Sinian suppressed his smile and pretended to be serious.
Su Xiaoli chuckled, "Brother, why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken?"
Hearing her chuckle, Lu Sinian's expression became more serious. He hummed a little, but he was obviously trying hard to hold back his laughter.
Lu Sinian even brought the official dictionary "Yueyun" from the Northern Song Dynasty and the "Yueyin Dictionary" published by Guangdong Province.
"These two books, one is the ancient Cantonese, which is used on TV and radio, and the dictionary is the modern Cantonese, which we use in daily conversation."
Lu Sinian knew that Su Xiaoli had a talent for learning languages, otherwise how could she have defeated Xiangli by just self-studying Mandarin.
The reason I told Su Xiaoli in advance this time was to prevent her from being confused at the beginning.
"The pronunciation is different?" Su Xiaoli was surprised. She didn't expect Cantonese to be so complicated.
Lu Sinian nodded, "There are some minor differences."
"What should I do if I encounter something different?"
"Listen to me. My opinion is the final word." Lu Sinian said concisely.
——Listen to me. Don’t be my sister, be my lover.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Lu Sinian suddenly realized that he had only been in Hong Kong for two days, but he had become a lot greedier.
My heart was stung.
I want more from Xiaoli, I want to hold her hand, I want to hug her tightly, I want... the willow branches of spring forever.
With her around, I won't always yearn for eternal night, and won't be drowned by the vortex of darkness.
A hint of forbearance appeared in Lu Sinian's eyes again.
Watching her silhouette in silence...
Su Xiaoli lowered her head and flipped through two books, and did not notice the changes in the light and darkness in Lu Sinian's eyes.
After hearing what Lu Sinian said, Su Xiaoli was speechless.
She let out a small laugh.
Okay, okay, I’ll just laugh.
I'll just watch you show off quietly.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. Where should we start?" She continued to flip through the book and asked with a smile.
——Xiao Li said to listen to me.
Perhaps because this sentence hit the mark, the forbearance in Lu Sinian's eyes was instantly shattered.
Peace of mind and joy returned again.
A relaxed smile appeared on his face, and he spoke softly, "Let's start with the initial consonants..."
The teaching style of "Teacher Lu" is surprisingly unhurried, humorous, and talk show-like.
One-on-one teaching is certainly better than sitting in a classroom of dozens of people and groping in the dark.
Su Xiaoli was originally not very clear about the pronunciation and words, but after Teacher Lu’s explanation, she suddenly understood them.
——So this is what the Cantonese lyrics are about.
Su Xiaoli was enlightened by the "famous teacher" and learned very quickly.
Three hours passed in a flash as the two taught and learned, and before they knew it, it was almost midnight.
“Study hard and speak in Cantonese at group meetings in the future to scare them.” Teacher Lu summarized the results of tonight.
"I just hope I can have a fluent conversation with Zheng Bo in Cantonese." Su Xiaoli said with a smile.
"As for me, you can talk to me in Cantonese. With more practice, you will definitely learn it quickly." Lu Sinian said softly.
"Well, then we both should try to speak Cantonese from now on." Su Xiaoli packed up her notes for tonight.
She strongly agrees with the idea of having more conversations with native speakers.
"Student Su Xiaoli, it's time for the exam." Lu Sinian said with a serious face.
Su Xiaoli reflexively sat up straight and pricked up her ears.
Lu Sinian said one word in Cantonese: "lau4 sing1."
"lau4 sing1?" Su Xiaoli tilted her head and answered uncertainly: "Meteor?"
Lu Sinian's eyes showed admiration, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, "The newspaper said there will be one tonight."
Su Xiaoli's eyes suddenly lit up.
Light well terrace.
On the terrace at midnight, the heat is gone and only the refreshing sea breeze blows on your face.
The sky suddenly lit up, and then an arc of light swept across the dark sky, coming suddenly and leaving quickly.
A shooting star.
"There are often more meteors seen in the second half of the night than in the first half." Lu Sinian murmured as he looked at the sky.
"Well, do you watch it often?"
"before."
"The stars move and the sky changes, so fleeting." Su Xiaoli's eyes never left the sky, and suddenly she was excited: "Another one!"
Lu Sinian looked at her with a smile.
He thought carefully about whether he had ever had a happier moment than the present one.
I thought about it several times.
No.
The stars are shining tonight.
The next day was the weekend, the research center was closed, and the study plan was suspended for a day.
Lu Sinian accompanied Su Xiaoli to buy a camera. She picked a C domestic Canon, which was small and convenient. It didn't take up much space in the bag and she could take pictures as long as she had film.
In order to become familiar with Cantonese as quickly as possible, Su Xiaoli asked Lu Sinian to communicate with her only in Cantonese, unless she really couldn't understand it at all.
Lu Sinian naturally agreed with a smile.
Su Xiaoli tried to speak in her half-baked Cantonese, word by word: "Does Lu's and... Jiakang from Country C... have any cooperation?"
Lu Sinian was stunned for a moment, then asked in Cantonese: "What kind of cooperation?"
"Medical devices...contrast imaging...and...high-precision detection..." Su Xiaoli said seriously.
Because it was a professional term, her Cantonese became more and more stiff and difficult to pronounce.
Lu Sinian didn't expect that he would end up talking about work when he took her shopping. He couldn't help but laugh, "Sure, I'll arrange it when I get back."
Su Xiaoli smiled and nodded.
"Come with me somewhere now." Lu Sinian invited.
"where?"
"You'll find out when you get there."
It turned out to be Wong Tai Sin Temple.
As we all know, Wong Tai Sin Temple is very popular and famous, and the maximum number of incense sticks burned at a time is nine.
"Why... come here?"
"Wong Tai Sin is also known as the Red Pine Fairy. He is widely known for practicing medicine and saving lives." Lu Sinian winked at her.
Su Xiaoli thought that although she could never pick up a scalpel again in this life, she could still get close to "practicing medicine" when it comes to the medical device business.
You have to worship this immortal senior with sincerity.
"It is said that Wong Tai Sin will answer any prayer," and the fortune sticks are especially effective." Lu Sinian became serious.
Su Xiaoli laughed: "Do you still believe this?"
Lu Sinian nodded and said, "I didn't believe it at first, but the fortune really came true, and I came here to fulfill my wish.
Because you can only get one lot at a time, you can't be too greedy, because one lot can only explain a certain fortune in a year.
Therefore, you must repay your last wish before you can ask for the next one. "
Su Xiaoli raised her eyebrows slightly, with interest in her eyes.
"Wong Tai Sin Temple provides free medical care and medicine, most of which are provided by the Lu family," he added.
Su Xiaoli smiled and nodded.
The gate of Wong Tai Sin Temple is like a market, and guests come in like clouds.
No matter if it is a human, a ghost or a god, as long as you ask for it, it will happen naturally.
I think it’s the same principle as doing business.
Meet customer needs and realize customer wishes.
If there is a temple or a business that is deserted, don't blame others first, but observe yourself.
You should first seek it from the situation, and if it fails, look for the reasons within yourself, not others.
Su Xiaoli thought as she bowed.
Lu Sinian was still praying sincerely. After the prayer, he wanted to donate money and ask for a new lottery ticket, which obviously took a little longer.
