Chapter 171 Classical Garden



Yin Zhu has never slept so well.

This time, Yin Zhu didn't have any nightmares; to be precise, she slept soundly without any dreams and slept until she naturally woke up.

Perhaps because she had slept so comfortably, when Yin Zhu opened her eyes, she was still in a daze, staring at the ceiling and wondering who she was, where she was, and what she needed to do.

As the alarm clock rang, and after glancing at the notes on her phone, Yin Zhu's memories gradually returned.

It seems like she was out of her mind for a little longer this time than yesterday.

After carefully putting away the rules booklet for the elderly, Yin Zhu went to the bathroom to wash up. She looked at her face intently in the mirror: Her wrinkles seemed a bit more pronounced? Three or four strands of her hair had turned white, but not as dramatically as An Zhi had described…

Come to think of it, I should have had black hair before, right?

Yin Zhu always felt that white hair looked better, and she hesitated about her own judgment.

The phone wouldn't show details like hair color, but Yin Zhu had another way. Opening her photo album, Yin Zhu quickly flipped through it and found a picture of herself with black hair. The woman in the photo looked to be in her twenties, and the wrinkles on her face were much lighter than they are now.

"That's right, that's what I look like."

Yin Zhu fully regained her senses and felt a bit scared of her previous state. She was glad that she had kept photos and notes after entering the nursing home, otherwise it would have been a real problem.

As usual, Yin Zhu went to have breakfast. She noticed that the old man who had bothered her before was trying to point fingers at others again. Unexpectedly, she met her match, and the old man actually managed to get his way. The old man got happier and happier as he talked, and sat down next to her and started nagging.

Yin Zhu was just passing the time while eating, and the charity canteen was a bit noisy, so she didn't actually hear what he said clearly.

However, Yin Zhu noticed that the person being pointed at seemed angry. Suddenly, she stood up, grabbed the old man by the neck, and lifted him up. The old man, grabbed by one hand, clearly panicked, and his voice grew louder: "Don't get agitated!"

The woman he was pointing at was a hot-tempered middle-aged woman. Although she was only pretending to be gentle, she was now as fierce as a raging flood.

Considering the rules mentioned trying to prevent elderly people from fighting, Yin Zhu moved closer and found that some colleagues had already arrived. At this moment, her colleague was using her silver tongue to persuade the two people. If that eloquence were on Earth, she would definitely be a top mediator on some mediation program.

"...Although you were choked, the other party didn't intend to kill you. Aunt Tao, don't worry, I'll persuade him."

Yin Zhu watched in utter disbelief.

Is this considered saturation management? Since she had nothing else to do and time was of the essence, Yin Zhu decided to go directly to Granny Yan, hoping she would stop with the riddles.

After dinner, Yin Zhu strolled around the nursing home and came across a lush green sports field.

Grandma Yan is here.

Yin Zhu was very satisfied with herself: it seems she hadn't chosen the wrong place.

However, because she was completely focused on her surroundings, Granny Yan didn't pay any attention to Yin Zhu first, which gave Yin Zhu time to observe her surroundings.

There is a fairly wide cobblestone path here, with dense greenery on both sides. So dense that even if someone suddenly jumped out from the greenery around the cobblestone path, Yin Zhu would just think it was perfectly reasonable.

Yin Zhu is not a botany major, so she cannot fully recognize the green plants around her.

Considering that the environments on different planets may differ, it's only natural that plants completely different from those on Earth could grow there, so there's no need to waste time on it. Therefore, Yin Zhu gave up on identifying the plant species and went directly to Granny Yan to make her presence known: "Did you want me to bring this over?"

What Yin Zhu was holding was the book of rules that the old man had to follow in Sin City.

Grandma Yan, who was being disturbed, was somewhat surprised. She squinted at Yin Zhu's face and looked at it again and again. She took the rulebook and looked at it for a while before slowly nodding: "Yes... but who are you?"

“I saw you in the cafeteria yesterday.”

Yin Zhu began to gesture, trying her best to help Granny Yan recover her memory: "At that time, I walked up behind you and stood there for a while, and then you started talking to me..."

Did I tell you my name?

Grandma Yan asked again.

Yin Zhu remembered this and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, your name is Yan..." What came after that? Yin Zhu couldn't help but frown.

Since the two had only met once, Yin Zhu focused only on the surname and did not remember the other person's full name. She only vaguely remembered that it was a very proper name, unlike Hong Xigua and the others' nicknames, which sounded like jokes.

It's precisely because it's so serious that it's not memorable!

Grandma Yan could tell that she couldn't answer, but she didn't mind too much. It was just a test after all: "Yan Zihan."

After a pause, she asked Yin Zhu, "Don't you want to know something?"

Shaking her head, Yin Zhu hadn't forgotten her business, so she declined Grandma Yan's offer to continue the conversation: "I'm here to work, you can go ahead and do your activities."

Finding the conspicuous young man among the elderly, Yin Zhu walked over in a few steps: "Colleague, let's hand over the duties."

Although she was young, the woman looked to be in her thirties, with very noticeable wrinkles around her eyes, though her eyes shone with a sharp light. Unlike her colleagues at the activity center who would avoid her, she still reached out her hand to keep Yin Zhu away and whispered, "Okay, thank you for your hard work from now on."

The woman turned and walked away, faster and faster, until she even took off running.
