Zhang Yunqi is not very familiar with Jiangchuan City, after being admitted to the provincial secondary school in his last life, he jumped directly from the col of Yunxi Village to the provincial capital Lijin City, where he studied and worked, married a wife and had children, and every time he went back to his hometown to visit his parents, he would pass by Jiangchuan City.

In order to better run the marketing handheld machine, he made a special trip to the book city to buy a local map, and then marked the place he wanted to go with a red pen, and got up early every morning to run along the road map one by one, when the sun was big, he took the bus, and when the weather was cool, he rode the 28 bars that were about to drop the chain at any time, shuttling through the streets and alleys of Jiangchuan City.

In a few days, Zhang Yunqi ran all over the convenience stores near the major middle schools in Jiangchuan City, and most of the store owners were relatively easy to talk to, even if the two sides couldn't talk, but the business was not benevolent and righteous, and when he met a few unreasonable bosses, he would also try his best to win the order with a smiling face, but even so, he still encountered several experiences of being blasted out like flies.

That feeling must be uncomfortable, but Zhang Yunqi is used to it, after all, life is not a novel, life is just a slap in the face one after another, telling you: you are not the protagonist, you are not irreplaceable, no one is used to you protecting you, if you don't act well, there are thousands of people behind you waiting to take your place, you can only live better than others if you work harder than others.

Life is the same, career is the same, love is the same, people who don't work hard don't deserve miracles.

It's sad, but that's the reality.

One day, Zhang Yunqi met an old man who collected garbage on the road, it was also an accident, the old man's tricycle and his bicycle scratched, and there was nothing wrong with both parties, but when he was about to leave, he saw a big brother on the tricycle, he immediately got out of the car again, turned out the big brother from the tricycle, and said to the old man: "How much is this thing?"

The old man who collected the garbage was a little inexplicable: "This big brother is bad, he can't use it at all, I picked it up in the trash can." ”

Zhang Yunqi said: "How much do you say?"

"Five... Five pieces!"

Zhang Yunqi stuffed five yuan to him, and left with the big brother.

Back in the dormitory, he cleaned up the mud and oil stains on it, and immediately turned it into a semi-new product, although it was bad, but he didn't need to be practical, and he was particular about style.

Since then, every time he comes to the door, Zhang Yunqi has tied his big brother to his waist, intentionally or unintentionally, those bosses have seen it, and they no longer speak with dirty words, and their attitude is no longer arrogant, of course, Zhang Yunqi has never been bombarded again.

What is this called?

Every afternoon, Ji Ling would come to Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School.

Sometimes she and Zhang Yunqi play badminton, and sometimes they hang out on campus.

On the last day of the National Day, Zhang Yunqi thought that he would have classes tomorrow, so he ran a few more convenience stores, he went out early in the morning to get back at eight o'clock in the evening, and he was tired of being a fool, and when he returned to school, he thought that Ji Ling would not come tonight, but when he walked not far from the boys' dormitory, he suddenly heard Ji Ling's voice: "Lao Tie, here." ”

Zhang Yunqi turned his head to look, and Ji Ling was lying on the railing and beckoned to him.

Ji Ling wore a navy blue jeans, a black knitted sweater, and a black baseball cap buttoned on her head, revealing a delicate little face and a few fine bangs, the wind blew, and the camphor leaves behind her made a noise.

Zhang Yunqi walked over and said, "Isn't it cold standing here?"

Ji Ling stuffed a glass of juice to Zhang Yunqi: "Then you still made me wait so long." ”

Zhang Yunqi smiled: "I'm very busy today, have you had dinner?"

"Nope. ”

"What do you want to eat?"

"I'm going to have a big meal!" Ji Ling squinted and smiled.

"It's not a problem to eat anything, you don't lack money. "If you have such confidence, Zhang Yunqi has said this time in his two lives.

"Yo yo yo, local tyrant. ”

"I can't talk about it, but it's absolutely no problem to invite me to eat and drink spicy food. ”

"Then let's eat and drink spicy food. ”

Ji Ling turned around and walked in front, Zhang Yunqi followed behind her, and the two walked through the campus together, it was already late at night, and there was only the sound of knowing in the campus, which was exceptionally quiet, the street lights were lit on both sides of the road, the light was very warm, Ji Ling was holding the juice in his hand, and his steps were as light as a deer.

Leaving the school, the two came to the street, on both sides of the row of small restaurants, most of them have eaten several Zhang Yunqi, the taste is not very good, he remembered the last time Wang Xiaokai had a birthday dinner in the drunken Xiangnan restaurant, although the price is expensive, but the taste is not bad, especially the spicy lobster and tea oil Chunjiang fish, the two signature dishes, are very delicious, he knows that Ji Ling likes to eat fish, and said: "How about we go to drunk Xiangnan?" ”

Ji Ling ignored Zhang Yunqi, and directly took his hand and trotted to a rice dumpling shop behind the city's No. 1 Middle School, the rice dumpling shop is not big, about 20 square meters, not much decoration, quite simple, the boss is a gray-haired grandmother, her face is wrinkled, when she saw Ji Ling, her eyes showed a kind smile: "Little girl, bring a friend to eat rice dumplings." ”

Ji Ling said "um" and said, "Grandma, I want two rice dumplings, and he wants to put a lot of chili peppers in his soup, but mine won't put it." ”

The old grandmother smiled and said yes, and turned around to cook rice dumplings for them.

Zhang Yunqi and Ji Ling found a place to sit down, Ji Ling looked at him and said, "Why is it that after a National Day, it feels like you are dark again?"

Zhang Yunqi said with a smile: "There's no way, I run outside every day, can I not get a tan." ”

Although Zhang Yunqi never said that he was selling Tetris handhelds, Ji Ling naturally knew in his heart: "You are tired every day, right?"

Zhang Yunqi said: "It's okay to be tired, but sometimes I feel a little unhappy in my heart, because I am always not understood." Of course, most of the time I don't think it's anything. ”

Ji Ling said: "It's normal, I don't understand what you do, but I think it's okay, everyone's thoughts are different, everyone hates to be misunderstood by others, but the way to really make yourself strong is not to echo others and make others happy, but to draw help from life." Lao Tie, as long as you like it, then do it. ”

Zhang Yunqi looked at Ji Ling with a smile, his heart was warm, this girl who has played since she was a child and grew up is the one who understands him best after all, he said: "Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years." Philosophers! ”

"That is, if you are unhappy in the future, you have to tell me about it, and even more so if you are happy. Ji Ling squinted his eyes and smiled, then reached out and scratched his hair in a mess.

Chatting, soon two rice dumplings came up, steaming in a thick heat, Ji Ling handed a pair of chopsticks to Zhang Yunqi and said, "Eat, eat, I often eat here after school, it tastes good." ”

Zhang Yunqi was hungry for a long time, and he ate with chopsticks, he ate quickly, and after eating, he leaned back on the chair and looked at Ji Ling.

Ji Ling eats very slowly, she doesn't like to talk when she eats, the light on the wall falls, and her long eyelashes leave two shadows on her little face.
