Chapter 61

61

In fact, Zhu Yushen is a person who likes quiet. Since teaching at Huangzhen Middle School, he has spent two Spring Festivals here. In the past, he would go to town during this time with his single colleagues who did not go home. But he did not adapt to the town.

He didn't like the scene where a person expanded several times in a short period of time; he didn't like to listen to those inflated words of men and women that made him vomit. The crowded ice rink and the short-term glitz of the ballroom overwhelmed him.

He was at a loss. So this year's Spring Festival, after he returned from the second grade of junior high school, he basically spent it in the school's single dormitory.

From the winter vacation until a few days before the start of school, it was rare to see a person in the Huangzhen Middle School building. The huge teaching building, the single dormitory area where every household was locked, the gray canteen, everything

They all briefly bid farewell to the lively scenes on weekdays, and there was no life at all. Zhu Yushen lived here alone and felt that his whole body was filled with chills. This kind of life lasted until a day or two before the start of school.

Zhu Yu thought deeply that those ambitious hermits in ancient times hid in the mountains and isolated themselves from the world before they became successful. Their courage to conquer mountains and rivers must be supported by a firm belief. The courage to conquer mountains and rivers and conquer lonely people is like

Use it in rivers and lakes, use it in temples, it must be extremely powerful.

In this lonely environment, Zhu Yushen spent his days reading classics and writing. He had a passion for literature like first love and a will like religion. Over a period of time, he has accumulated a large number of works. Among them, the length of a novel

and words account for the majority, and also include some articles written in modernist techniques.

Zhu Yushen secretly felt that he should be considered a "literary youth". But like many such unknown people, he is still a down-and-out literary youth who is looked down upon by others. He doesn't care about this at the moment, he just

I want to use the pen and ink in my hand to pour out the barriers in my heart, create an artistic conception, put myself in it, and enjoy happiness in it. Also, I want to fight back against the concealment and deception in traditional culture.

Zhu Yushen has not watched TV for a long time, although the computer in his room has broadband and can watch TV online. I remember when I was a child, the Murakami people liked to gather at a certain house in the evening to watch the Huangmei opera "The Girl with a Horse". The appearance and gentleness of the heroine Hong Suzhen in the play,

It almost touches the softest part of people's hearts. Her actions of disguising herself as a man, winning the first prize in the exam, and saving her boyfriend are even more touching.

After reading a lot of books, Zhu Yushen felt that traditional dramas such as "The Girl with a Horse" and old-themed film and television dramas filmed in the new era have deliberately created a colorful and romantic world. The people there are almost indifferent to the world, which makes her

People can't stop. It seems that behind every down-and-out man there is a beautiful, virtuous, and powerful woman who encourages him and supports him, thereby allowing him to succeed. Then he will marry her and live happily ever after.

happy life.

In fact, how can you believe this? Zhu Yushen read in Lu Xun's article: After the prisoner was killed, the poor people at the execution ground immediately rushed up and snatched the clothes of the deceased. In Mao Dun's work, he wrote: The poor in order not to be hungry

If you want to die, you can only pawn your cotton-padded jacket to exchange for some food, but you will still freeze to death or starve to death. It just prolongs the time. In Shen Congwen's writing, the simple and beautiful love stories in the countryside are the patent of rich men.

Don't talk about poor young men.

When Zhu Yushen saw these plots, he had a great resonance in his heart. Just imagine that only today, decades after the reform and opening up, the Chinese people have the conditions for a greatly enriched material life. In ancient times and in the early and mid-century of the last century, productivity was extremely low.

Struggles are frequent and materials are extremely scarce. The general public is struggling with hunger. How can it be like the scenes seen in dramas and TV?

Zhu Yushen once achieved top results in his studies, and loved literature and writing. He was considered an ambitious young man. Later, he published a number of works and continued to write. With an open-minded literary sentiment, he was considered a young man of letters.

Zhu Yushen thought that he was no worse than the male protagonists in dramas and movies in all aspects, but he couldn't wait for the love and encouragement from even half a girl. Almost all the girls he came into contact with in the past came to break his heart.

After learning from the pain, Zhu Yushen felt that this was mainly because he was born in a humble family. If the family conditions were superior, it would be different. Because then there would be no need to worry. If you have talent, it would be the icing on the cake. Now, Zhu Yushen is sober: Disciple from a poor family

Don't be fooled by those fictitious beautiful stories, otherwise your life will be ruined.

However, when he goes out on the street, he can still see boys of all sizes gathered in billiard rooms, Internet cafes, ice rinks and other places after the New Year. These young and Dangerous boys who are too miserable to go out to work after graduating from middle school spend all day in

They are gangsters on the street. Their outfits, their dyed or Afro hairstyles, and their carefree style have become a unique landscape in the town. And this team is still growing. They can express themselves in their conversations.

The bullshit goes to the sky. In their subconscious, they feel that one day there will always be a woman as beautiful as a vixen and more capable to save them, so that they don't have to worry about anything.

This is certainly a deception and misdirection in traditional love stories and modern soap operas. Among these old and young men, there are constantly those who are still unmarried after their thirties, leading to lifelong loneliness. This situation is enough to prove that they long to embrace a vixen-like beauty.

It's a wishful thinking. But the scene of leisurely waiting for the beauty to arrive is still being staged one after another. Zhu Yushen shouted: Wake up, brothers like me who come from poor families and are messing around. If you don't work hard, you will be in doom!

Whenever Zhu Yushen had this thought in his heart, he didn't want to watch TV programs anymore. Then, he also felt a little anxious in his heart. After the New Year, he was one year older. In a few years, he will also celebrate the new year.

He was already in his thirties. Unfortunately, he was still alone, living in a single dormitory. He thought: How great would it be if a girl was willing to be the hostess of his single-room two-story house in his town? What could she be?

What kind of girl?

After Zhu Yushen had this thought, he immediately thought of the house in his town. Years ago, the school paid each teacher the previous month's salary in advance. Zhu Yushen took a look and saw that there was some money in his account. Now,

The prices of everything and labor wages are rising rapidly, so the house must be renovated as soon as possible.

After being introduced, Zhu Yushen had already contacted a decoration master and planned to finish the first floor first. Seeing that there were still a few days before school started, he suddenly had an idea and thought that he should start work first. He immediately went out and got in the car.

, prepare to go to the decoration materials store in town to look at the materials. Then calculate the prices and see how much you can do with your current money.

While riding through the Xin Street between the school and the town, Zhu Yushen saw that many houses that had been stopped a year ago had been started. However, there were still some shops on the street that had not yet opened, and the same was true on the old streets. Zhu Yushen was riding

As the car was moving forward, someone on the right unexpectedly called him. When he stopped and took a look, it turned out to be Xia Youli, the politics teacher. Teacher Xia was standing in front of the sewing shop owned by his wife, smoking. Xia Heidan and Zhu Yushen had a good relationship.

, he also has a passionate interest in literature and history. Zhu Yushen locked his bicycle on the street and came to the door of the sewing shop, and Hei Dan let him in.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhu Yushen saw Xia Youli's beautiful wife Hu Yuqin and a strange girl cleaning the house. Zhu Yushen stepped forward and said hello. Hu Yuqin stopped what he was doing and said with a smile: "Teacher Zhu is just going out on the street.

! We just came back from our hometown today. When we left a year ago, the store wasn’t cleaned up much. You see, it’s quite messy.”

Zhu Yu responded deeply, but his eyes glanced at the strange girl who was packing clothes. He remembered that the one who fucked here was an ugly woman before, so why did she change her now?

Seeing Zhu Yushen's look, Hu Yuqin felt a little unhappy and said, "Don't you know her? I came here in the second half of last year and have been working for several months."

Zhu Yushen said: "I remember it was not her who worked in your store before. I haven't been to your store for a long time."

At this time, Xia Youli took out two bottles of liquor from his bag, played with them and said, "Brother Zhu is going to my house for dinner tonight, and we'll get drunk before resting."

Hu Yuqin also smiled and said: "Yushen, you can come to our house for dinner tonight. We have brought some dishes from our hometown. You can make breakfast later." Then she turned sideways and said to the girl: "Aiyu, you are here today.

Let’s go over for dinner tonight.”

The girl said "Yeah". Then, she turned around and stared straight at Zhu Yushen.

Zhu Yushen saw that she had applied a lot of makeup on her face, and her long eyelashes were fake. Her profile was relatively good, and she had a devilish figure. Zhu Yushen thought to himself: If this Aiyu took off her disguise, she would be just an ordinary-looking person.

.Her appearance is not comparable to that of her boss lady.

Zhu Yu was very happy when he saw that Aiyu would also go to Xia Youli's house for a banquet in the evening. He inevitably said some compliments and thanked his employer. After that, he rode to the decoration and building materials store.

After going in and looking at the materials for a long time, Zhu Yushen was quite satisfied with the price of the materials. He was going to ask the decoration master how much he had to buy first. The master told him on the phone to transport the tiles, white cement, etc. home first. But because of the decoration matter with him,

The current construction schedules overlapped and it would take a while. Zhu Yushen thought to himself, then he would use his bicycle to transport some materials back every day.

In the evening, Zhu Yushen freshened up and came to Xia Youli's house carrying some gifts and pastries for the children. After entering, he found Hu Yuqin cooking in the kitchen. After sitting down on the sofa in the living room with Xia Youli, Zhu Yushen found that the coffee table was full of

Essays and literary magazines are also Xia Youli's spiritual food. In the room opposite, there seems to be an old woman playing with her seven or eight-year-old son.

Xia Heidan offered Zhu Yushen a cup of tea and said, "Brother Zhu is full of knowledge and keeps writing. May I ask if there are any masterpieces coming out recently? How about letting me take a look?"

Zhu Yushen wanted to laugh a little. He hadn't seen him for many days and was still a little uncomfortable hearing him talk like this at Xia Youli's house. He didn't know how to answer in ancient times.

Hearing the voices, the old lady and the child came out of the room. Xia Youli usually left the child with his mother in the countryside to attend kindergarten, so Zhu Yushen rarely saw his mother. As soon as Xia's mother left the room, Zhu Yushen stood up

, asked auntie how she was.

Xia's mother narrowed her eyes with satisfaction and asked her son, "Is this the Xiao Zhu you often mentioned to me?"
