Chapter 129: Confused Life
Chapter 129 "Dragon and Phoenix Tribulation" confused life
Chen Long, who fell asleep in a daze, was woken up early in the morning by the two children.
After Chen Long got up and cleaned up the old clothes and sheets on the ground, he washed the pot and boiled the water, and boiled a handful of noodles. Beat two eggs and boil them, and it's the start of the day.
Two bowls and two pots each filled all the egg noodles, two children and two adults, one for each of the four people, and ate it quickly while it was hot.
So the soldiers walked out of the residence in two ways, and when they were leaving, the fifth sister wanted to ask Chen Long about coming back to sleep so late last night, but Chen Long didn't answer her. He really didn't want her to know about his unfortunate experience and the difficult predicament he was now very poor, so as not to affect her studies and internships.
Outside the small house, after saying goodbye to the two children, the fifth sister went back to work in the company's outpatient department.
And Chen Longbang took the schoolbags of the two children, and walked to the school by the hands of the children one after the other.
On the way, I met Li Jianzhong's grandfather again.
Li Jianzhong is used to getting up early. Especially in the past few days, after school in the afternoon, after teasing Chen Long's two children a few times, his heart is much happier and more comfortable. It seems to go back to the feeling of bringing grandchildren back in the day.
This morning, he walked along the way to school, watching every little child who went to school. Looking forward to meeting Chen Long's two children, I didn't expect to meet them now.
Chen Long and the two children happily greeted the old man.
Of course, Li Jianzhong happily accompanied the children, talking and laughing and walking to the school together.
What a warm and harmonious picture of sending children to school, unaware pedestrians on the road, really think that the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren accompany their children to school together!
When he was about to arrive at school, Li Jianzhong even made a request to Chen Long, saying that he hoped that he could come and pick up the two children in the morning and afternoon......
However, he was politely declined by Chen Long.
Twice in a row, he helped take care of the child at the school gate, gave the child fruit to eat, and generously paid for the child to eat with him...... Li Jianzhong's generosity and kindness had already deeply moved Long Chen.
After all, I have never gotten or experienced the so-called father's love since I was a child. Therefore, in this big provincial city, he suddenly won the love of strangers like his parents, which made Chen Long deeply feel the warmth of great love in the world. In such a difficult and difficult life, he felt the positive energy of the world and gained the motivation to live. It seems that I see more hope ahead of life......
Chen Long understood the old man's heart, good intentions, thoughts and wishes. However, after all, how can strangers who are not relatives or relatives be embarrassed to accept in vain, and how can others care for and help them too much? Love cannot be accepted and abused casually, and proper distance may be the best!
Without Chen Long's consent, Li Jianzhong proposed that he hoped to come to the school often in the future, or go to his residence, and pick up and drop off the children with him. Or, I hope to play with my two children more, especially in the company community...... After all, he really likes these two children too much, and says that he has a special indescribable feeling for these two children......
Of course, Chen Long happily agreed to this request. Similarly, the two children and Chen Long himself also slowly developed a special sense of respect for him......
After sending the children to school, Chen Long hurried back to the company's security department to report and go to Zhang Yujun's office to accept his security work arrangement.
Since the thief arrest incident when he first came in, Zhang Yujun has always taken care of Chen Long's work arrangement. He was given a better relaxed duty post. In addition to seeing that he was a "related household figure" specially recommended by Li Feng, it was more because of the incident that happened, Chen Long helped him, so he was taken care of by his work...... Chen Long can also vaguely feel and experience these.
However, Chen Long did not take advantage of being lazy at work because of this, but worked harder to do his job well. He understands that only in this way can he not make his colleagues jealous and hateful, and can he build a good relationship with his colleagues.
Today, Zhang Yujun arranged for Chen Long to freely patrol and inspect the group company and residential quarters. This kind of work is the least stressful and the most relaxing.
However, in the same patrol work, other colleagues basically have electric vehicles. Driving an electric car to work on patrol is, of course, fast and convenient. As for himself, he walked slowly and patrolled, much slower.
During the day, there are a lot of people coming and going in the company, especially in the residential complex. However, the light angle during the day is very good, and the patrol work is much better than the patrol at night, but it is relatively noisy and noisy compared to the night. If it's at night, there is less pedestrian activity and it's much quieter, which is very suitable for thinking about life.
But in today's inspection work, in terms of mood, Chen Long has always been nervous, always thinking about his current grim life situation......
In fact, during the entire sleeping time when he came back last night, Chen Long couldn't sleep well, and the reality of poverty haunted him. The dozens of yuan in his trouser pocket are all his current net worth, how will he live without money?
Last night's bad luck still makes him regret it immensely. I wanted to go out to earn some living expenses, but I couldn't earn the money, and I was beaten and lost my shoeshine tools, not to mention the loss of my shoeshine tools, and I also lost a lot of money miserably! Moreover, it alarmed the person he respected the most in his heart, and he personally went to deal with the compensation...... His face was really completely lost, and he was completely lost.
However, no matter what, things that don't want to happen and shouldn't have happened have already happened. It is useless to pat your chest and regret it, because you still have to go on with your daily work and life, you have to live a normal life, and your normal living expenses are even more indispensable! It's just that what should we do in these days when you have no money? The cruel reality is just in front of you! Life is so miserable, there is too much helplessness, and too much self-indulgence......
While walking and inspecting his work, Chen Long was thinking about all kinds of things and problems in his mind, especially thinking about the way out of his current life......
The day's seemingly boring work, accompanied by his nerve-wracking mental struggle, soon arrived at the end of the afternoon. I thought that when I got off work, I had to pick up my children from school again, and then I had to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and come back to cook......
Thinking of this, Chen Long subconsciously touched the only dozens of yuan left in his trouser pocket with his hand, and planned in his heart to wait for the vegetable market to buy something?
By the time I cooked breakfast this morning, the few noodles I had left had been cooked. The rice is gone, and there is basically nothing to eat in the small house...... However, the two growing children are hungry almost all the time, wishing they can eat all kinds of food, just like the eagles that open their mouths and scream, waiting to be fed and nursed all the time......
In fact, he already knows how much change there is in his trouser pocket, and today, he doesn't know how many times he touched it with his hands. Now, he simply took it out again and counted it one by one: 56.8 yuan!
56.8 yuan, that's all the belongings!
What can I buy with this money, and how long can I survive?
The price of goods is so high now, this change is not enough to buy a better piece of meat! This little ticket may not be opened to see and be willing to pick up this little ticket if it falls on the ground!
Looking at the old gross bills, Chen Long had mixed feelings in his heart, so he continued to count them again and again in a boring way, for fear that he would count them wrong, or rather, he wished that this handful of gross tickets would suddenly become a hundred yuan bill...... In that case, it will be enough for living expenses for a while, and many problems can be solved!
Haha, it's really an extremely ridiculous and unrealistic fantasy!
It was time to get off work, so Long Chen folded all the gross tickets again, put them in his trouser pocket, and rushed back to the security department to take over the shift......
After all the work was handed over clearly, he hurried back to the small house, hurriedly changed into security uniforms, and rushed to the school to pick up the children......
Today, Chen Long rushed to pick up the children from school, but it was relatively early. When they arrived at the school gate, the children were happily carrying their school bags and coming out of the school one after another, and many parents were waiting outside the school gate to claim their children to take them back.
Chen Long thought that he could arrive early today to pick up the child, avoid Li Jianzhong's grandfather, and no longer bother him to let him spend money to buy food for the child. However, when he arrived, he saw him standing not far from the door, waiting there with a bag of fruit in his hand. It's like picking up your own children, staring at every child who comes out of it......
Seeing the old man from afar, Long Chen began to feel shocked and speechless about his persistent pursuit of spirit, but more of a respect for him!
Soon, Tingting took Xiao Binbin's hand, carried a small schoolbag, and followed other children out of the door.
Xiao Binbin recognized the old man standing not far from the door at a glance, so he shook off his sister's hand holding him, ran over and hugged the old man's leg, and rushed to open the bag of fruit that the old man was carrying......
Xiao Tingting also ran over when she saw it, competing with her younger brother for the fruit in the old grandfather's bag......
It's really a rebirth, a second ripeness. After a few days of getting along, the children remember to recognize this old man!
Li Jianzhong's bag contains the best apples that are selected and washed from home. After the two children snatched it from the bag, they immediately put it in their mouths and took a big bite to eat, and it seemed that they were really hungry......
Li Jianzhong teased and watched the two cute children bite into the apple, with a smile on his face, very proudly satisfied......
What a beautiful and touching picture!
Chen Long stood on the sidewalk in the distance, looking at the scene in front of him from a distance, his heart was already indescribably moved, and tears welled up in his eyes unconsciously......
Chen Long stood and looked at it for a while, raised his hand to wipe his eyes, flashed the children who came out, and walked forward.
When the clever little Bin Bin saw his father coming to pick them up, he immediately ran towards him while eating the apple in his mouth. Then he reached out to him and took a bite of the apple in his little hand, and said to him:
"Dad, this is grandpa's apple, it's delicious, you can take a bite too." ”
"Well, if it's delicious, keep it for yourself. Chen Long didn't bite into the apple that the child stretched out.
"No, Dad, you can take a bite, it's really crispy and sweet!"
Xiao Binbin said, and insisted on stuffing the apple in his hand into his mouth, forcing him to bite and taste it.
"Okay, I'll take a bite. Unable to resist the child's request, Chen Long had to take a small bite.
Sure enough, the crisp, sweet and delicious apples made him enjoy eating them in his mouth.
"Grandpa gave you apples to eat, Xiao Binbin, did you say thank you to him?" Chen Long taught the child while eating......
At this time, Xiao Tingting was also biting and eating an apple, and at the same time took the old man's hand and walked to Chen Long's side.
Li Jianzhong said to him with a smile on his face: "You came to pick up the child early today, I was planning, if you are late, I will take the child to buy food for them first." ”
Hearing what the old man said, Long Chen hurriedly declined: "No, no need, old man, I really thank you very much for your kindness to the child." Wait a minute, I'll go to the vegetable market with my kids to buy groceries and go back to cook. ”
"Hehe, no need. Or, like yesterday, we will go to eat the same meal together as yesterday?" Li Jianzhong asked Chen Long for advice.
"No, old man, thank you for your kindness, I really don't need it. Chen Long still insisted on politely declining.
"No, Dad, I still have to eat the same meal as yesterday! I want to eat! I want to eat here with Grandpa, and I won't go back!" the clever little Bin Bin suddenly shook himself up......
