The reason why some people don't care about anything is because they never get what they want. The heart has long been trained into a copper wall and an iron heart.

There are two sides to everything in the world, there is never a shortage of good people, and there is never a shortage of bad people, and there may even be so many that it is impossible to predict......

At the end of August, I will go to teach, in order to better teach students, Tongzi such as this time mainly practice hard pen and brush calligraphy at home. Thinking that she might also teach painting, she also practiced Chinese painting more.

Thinking of it before, Chen Xi said that her skin was not good, and Tong Ziru said that she wanted to bring her some mask and never gave it to her, Tong Ziru contacted her to see when she had time to come out to meet.

They made an appointment on Sunday afternoon, and when they met, Tong Ziru brought her a gift. Chen Xi was overjoyed, she couldn't put it down with this small bottle of mask, "I heard that this royal bee venom mask is expensive, and it sells for hundreds of yuan in China, thank you so much for giving me this, how much money I will transfer to you, if it is not enough, I will pay you my salary next time." ”

She pressed Chen Xi's action to hold the phone, "No, this is what I sent you, don't shirk or give me money if you send it." ”

"Okay. Chen Xi smiled happily and withdrew his hand again.

"Aren't you going to go home next, are you going to work in Linxi all the time?"

"It depends on the situation, the main thing is that I am still going to graduate school, and I don't want to quit my job here, if I don't get admitted next year, I will come back. ”

"Yes, yes. ”

Chen Xi's eyes rolled, and she thought of a good idea, she hugged Tong Ziru's waist again, and her little eyes were a little treacherous. She pretended to be mysterious and asked, "Ziru, are you not going back to New Zealand for the summer vacation?"

"Well, I won't go back yet. ”

"That's a good dare!" she shook a few words excitedly, "Let's go back to the Northeast together, you look at our hometown, stay in my house for a few days!

"Why? It's bothering your family, isn't it?

"Oh, it's okay, we Northeast people are enthusiastic and bold, and it's too late for my family to be happy when you go! If you're worried about the travel expenses, I'll pay for you, what?"

Tong Ziru shook his hand, "No, no, I'm not worried about the lack of travel expenses." If you find it convenient at home, then I will go back with you. ”

"A hundred conveniences! Then you go back and clean up in the next few days. I'm going to go back for a week on July 22nd. ”

"Good. ”

......

12 days later, Tong Ziru and her took the high-speed train to Shenyang.

The 7-hour drive is not a long time, and the two of them chatted and watched a movie in the car, and soon arrived.

Along the way, Tong Ziru listened to Chen Xi tell the story of her family.

Chen Xi's family is just an ordinary salaryman in Shenyang County, and she has an older brother who has already started a family. The life of the family is very warm, even if it is not rich, there is a mother who has been taking medicine for a long time, and there is an elderly grandmother and grandfather, and the family is happy every day. In their family, there is no mother-in-law and daughter-in-law problem from ancient times to the present, although the mother's heart is not very good, but she is still very diligent and takes care of her grandmother who suffers from Alzheimer's disease. Grandma has always treated Chen Xi's mother as her own daughter, and now she is confused and often pronounces her mother's name.

Chen Xi's parents also love Chen Xi very much, when she was in school, she often sent clothes and food to Chen Xi, afraid that she would be reluctant to spend money, Chen Xi has never quarreled with her parents since she was a child, even if Chen Xi did not do well in the exam when she was a child, her father would only encourage her, "A failure is nothing, even if my daughter is the last in the exam, we believe that you must have worked hard, as long as you are happy." When Chen Xi went to high school, she wanted to study art, and it also took a lot of money to buy paints and go to art classes, so her brother knew that he was afraid that she would be reluctant, so he gave her the money he saved from his part-time job to enroll in classes and let her learn what she liked.

Tong Ziru felt very envious when she heard it, and she said with emotion: "Growing up in such a harmonious family, I must be very happy to have the love of my parents." ”

Chen Xi smiled from ear to ear, "Yes, so I'm very satisfied, I don't envy those rich people, maybe their happiness is only money, I still like the happiness of being cared for by my family." ”

Tong Ziru couldn't help lying on the table, she closed her eyes, imagining the scene of Chen Xi's family falling in love with each other, thinking about it, she felt very loving, but she felt a trace of indescribable sentimentality in her heart.

Chen Xi approached her and touched her hair and whispered: "I think you are not bad, the family conditions are very good, you yourself are so good, your parents must be very proud to have a daughter like you!"

Is she really proud, since she was a child, she wanted to "please" her mother with excellent grades, and every time her mother ignored it, or said, "Don't be complacent, why don't you skip a grade to Harvard!"

"Yes, we are all very happy, we are favored by God!" she replied to Chen Xi with such a sentence against her will.

"I'll go back and take you to try our special rice pot wrapped meat and pork stewed vermicelli, my mother's cooking is much more authentic than the Northeast cuisine in the canteen!"

Tong Ziru then looked at his mobile phone, there were no calls and messages, and another month had passed, and his mother still ignored it as always.

Tong Zi is like closing his eyes and pretending to sleep, putting his mobile phone aside and not talking anymore.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the train finally arrived, and at eight o'clock in the evening, they returned home, just in time for dinner.

As soon as he entered the door, Tong Ziru greeted Chen Xi's family, Chen Xi's family was all there today, and the two old men looked very kind, and their hair was gray. When I saw them coming, I brought them dishes and chopsticks.

Chen Xi's parents are also in their 50s, Chen Xi's father is quite tall, his temples have turned white, and his hair is already "Mediterranean," the corners of his eyes are full of crow's feet, and his smile makes people feel very gentle and comfortable.

Chen Xi's mother looks quite temperamental, Chen Xi inherited her mother's eyes that squinted into a crescent moon when she smiled and her snow-white skin, her mother has a melon seed face, there is no trace of blood on her face, and the overall appearance feels very delicate. Her hands don't seem to be the same age as her, the hands that have held her feel big and thick, the blood vessels on her hands are clearly visible, and the palms of her hands are calloused, and it seems that she has done a lot of heavy work.

The child brought with him the bottle of New Zealand Manuka honey and the famous cookie that had not been opened. The price of these two items in New Zealand is very high, especially honey has medicinal properties, and many people buy them overseas. This is a loss that has not been dismantled from home before, and it is just right to give it to Chen Xi's family. Chen Xi's family is curious about this mixed-race girl and likes her, and they like the gifts she sends.

After eating, Tong Ziru wanted to help Chen Xi's mother wash the dishes, but her mother said that she would not let her do anything, and asked her to go back to the back room to play with Chen Xi.

So, Tong Ziru and Chen Xi were sitting in the bedroom, Chen Xi was playing games, Tong Ziru didn't bother her when she was busy, she looked at Chen Xi's house, her home was built on the third floor of the county, and her room was on the east side of the second floor. This bedroom is a bit bigger than the room rented by Tong Ziru in Linxi.

Chen Xi's room is set in dark blue, which is also in line with her spicy and unrestrained personality, her room is very neat, there are not many clutter, and there are no plush toys for girls to play with, most of them are books, and there are a few anime posters on the wall.

Chen Xi felt a little tired after playing three games, and when she saw that Tong Ziru had nothing to do, she chatted with her.

"Words are like ah, I rarely listen to you talk about the past, I'm more upright, what do you say, you've been a loner since you were a child, don't you like to make friends?"

Tong Ziru looked at her and responded lightly, "Well, I'm more introverted, and I only made friends with you when I went to college." ”

When it comes to the word friend, this should be a distant thing.

She concealed that tragic past, which can be said to be one thing that she hated in her life, so that she no longer dared to trust anyone casually, and turned her heart into a heart of stone.

It was when she was 8 years old and in the second grade, and Tong Ziru was not completely introverted at that time, and she liked to take the initiative to meet new people. On the first day of school, a pair of twin siblings were transferred to the class.

This pair of brothers and sisters are very eye-catching, the elder brother is sunny and lovely, the younger sister is gentle and beautiful, and they have met many children soon after they came.

One day when Tong Ziru was about to be late for school, they met Tong Ziru and saw her running in a hurry, both brother and sister were riding bicycles, so the girl offered to ask her brother to give her a ride.

Because of this, they became friends, and coincidentally, they were neighbors with Tong Ziru.

The simple child Ziru thought that they would become good friends for life, but the good times did not last long, and two months later rumors spread in the school, and there were children in the Tong Ziru class who scolded her in front of her for being a wild child without a father, and said that she was an illegitimate child. Some people even said that she was bullied by her stepfather.

In the face of these vicious words, Tong Ziru was very sad, she tried her best to explain, but no one believed her.

Later, she overheard that it was the brother and sister who did it, the elder brother used his mobile phone to secretly record the conversation between Tong Ling and Tong Ziru's father arguing, and the younger sister added oil and vinegar to the side and said something out of nothing.

Tong Ziru's anger was ignited, and she rushed in, first kicking his unsuspecting brother in the back, knocking him down, and then grabbing her sister's braids. She shouted, "Why are you doing this to me, you are so vicious!"

The girl also had to pull Tong Ziru's hair, but fortunately, Tong Ziru was tall, and she couldn't hold it. The brother got up and put Tong Ziru on the corner of the table with the other classmates, and the brother kicked her legs and arms, talking dirty, and Tong Ziru's arms and legs immediately bled out. It took a few minutes for the teacher to come and pull them away.

The brother and sister later gave the reason for doing bad things because they didn't like Tong Ziru, and it was Tong Ziru who pestered them, so they tried to get rid of her.

Tong Ziru spat in their faces, left the next sentence "It's disgusting," and ran out.

After that, Tong Ziru transferred to another school and left, Tong Ling was not easy to mess with, she found the other party's parents and asked for compensation for medical expenses, after two communications, in the end they also compensated, and this matter ended. But a lingering shadow was buried in Tong Ziru's heart. If you think about it, it may be that they were willing to get close to her because they thought she was studying well, and then they learned to catch up with her and learned about her background, so they had disgusted thoughts.

Since then, Tong Ziru no longer trusts others, and she has become an indifferent and arrogant character.
