"Why don't you come by bike? Don't you have a car at home?"

Zhao Hong couldn't believe it, what age is this, who can still have a bicycle in their house?

"Huh...... , Yes, there is, that is, the children have to ride to school, and they have to go home to eat at noon, which can not only eat better, but also save a few dollars. ”

The old man talked about the child, and there seemed to be a little more brilliance in the exhaustion on his face. His eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, and he looked happy.

"Your kid is in high school, you're an old man, aren't you?"

Zhao Hong looked at this old man as if he was about sixty years old, and he was really surprised to have such a young child.

"No, my kid is only in junior high school, and they all complain that I got married and had children late. ”

The old man didn't seem to care much, maybe he had already experienced such a thing a long time ago!

"Why did you go to junior high school? Then it's too late for you to get married and have children, right?"

This made Zhao Hong feel surprised for a while, the old man should be sixty when he looked at it, how could he still have such a young child?

"In the past, the family was poor and couldn't afford to marry a daughter-in-law, didn't I meet my son and mother later, I was an old bachelor who couldn't afford to marry a daughter-in-law, she was a little widow without a man, I was a little bit of income in the field, she was a daughter with a small oil bottle.

It's also to help each other get by, she sees that I am good to her children, and I have a person who knows cold and hot from now on. Besides, it's still much better for two people to live together than alone, I help make her land, her clothes and meals are made by her, and the children can still take a hand when they are older, and they can make do with it. ”

The old man looks like you are rare and weird, and he said it very lightly.

"I don't look like an uncle who can't get married! I turned out to be looking for a little daughter-in-law......!

Zhao Hong said to the old man a little ridiculously. At the beginning, when they chatted, Zhao Hong thought that the old man should be a humorless person, but after talking too much, he realized that who would lack that bit of humor with more life experience?

If you see too much, you may be able to see it, otherwise there are so many unsatisfactory things in life, and no one can be haunted by it all the time, right?

If you see more poor people, you will naturally know that you are not the most miserable people; when you see more rich people, you may know that their lives are not exactly the same as you imagined; when you see more people who are struggling with illness, you may no longer complain, why do I always have nothing? Because when you know that there is nothing, it is often the healthiest and most energetic years for you to live.

When you are old, you can also sit in the warmth of your home, sip a cup of tea, and reminisce about the ups and downs of the struggle.

Of course, it would be even more beautiful if you could have a her (him) and accompany you to reminisce together.

Without further ado, Zhao Hong and the old man's chat continued, and after eating the food given by Zhao Hong, although the old man was reluctant to give him back the money for buying tobacco, he handed over a pipe made by himself without hesitation.

"It's made at home, don't dislike it if it's ugly, but it's definitely no problem to use. ”

The old man said very boldly.

"Huh...... It's been a long time since I've seen this thing, and it's made of wood!

Zhao Hong looked at the wooden pipe in his hand and asked with some curiosity, this thing has not been seen for him for at least more than 20 years, especially it is made of wood.

It's not delicate, but it's very flavorful, with a woody scent.

"Jujube wood is an old craft. I learned it from people many years ago, hehe...... It turned out that I was making it for my own use, but then someone asked for more, and I tried to buy it. ”

……

After chatting for a while, Zhao Hong was about to continue shopping, but at this time, Lao Tian looked at the time and took the initiative to remind, "It's not early, shouldn't we go back, after all, you still have activities to participate in at night!"

Zhao Hong didn't go back a little reluctantly until this time, slowly, watching and reminiscing while walking, such a comfortable getaway is life!

Every day, calculating the success or failure of gains and losses, and the unpredictable hearts of people who can't figure it out are indeed very tired and annoying, but who has what to do?

If you want to live, you have to make a living, you need to fight.

"If you don't work hard today, you have to work hard to find a job tomorrow. ”

Many companies are already shouting such slogans, who can disagree? Who dares to disagree?

Being laid off is just a matter of minutes, all kinds of reasons, only you can't think of it, and there is nothing he can't find.

There can even be no reason!

Yes, there's just no reason!

With the spread of the economic crisis, coupled with the growing number of college graduates every year, and countless so-called "new citizens"!

To put it nicely, you can call it "new citizens", but to put it practically, it is just some people who are no longer able to survive in the countryside and go out to earn a living, people who have no insurance, and no future to make a living in the city.

This phenomenon in other countries has been described in some books: "This is a long-distance movement of sheep eating people, and countless bankrupt peasants, or unemployed peasants, were forced from agricultural producers to the cities, providing a large number of cheap labor for industrialization......"

And how is this not the case at home?

It's just that the term has become a new one. And the so-called "new" is nothing more than that if you don't have a house in the local area, then you need to buy a house, work hard for the prosperity of the city, and then return all your income, and even your own and your children's expected income in the future.

With the arrival of dusk time in the county, many street lights gradually lit up on the streets that were not too wide, and the stars in the sky gradually began to appear.

Skies without sunset mean it should be nice weather again tomorrow!

"Lao Zhao, I'm back. ”

Just walked into the lobby of the hotel, Lao Wang immediately greeted him and greeted him eagerly.

"Lao Wang, did you come here early?"

Zhao Hong said with a smile.

"Hey, after the meeting and dinner, I came over immediately, I made a call at home, there is something to do tonight, I should go back late. ”

Lao Wang explained.

"Oh, it's a leave of absence, that's good! My sister-in-law manages it very well. ”

"Huh...... Besides, don't you still have children at home who need to be taken care of?

I took a leave of absence, so she needed to study with the children in the evening, and of course she didn't have to wait for me to come home in the evening. ”

"Huh...... , understood, understood!"

"Huh...... Ballroom activity for a while?"

"Reminisce about those days?"

"Just a workout!"

"Just for health?"

"Huh...... , just because of health!"

"Don't you need to be happy?"

"Huh...... , happiness is by the way. ”

"Why do I feel a little bit unnatural?"

"I will know, but I can only understand but not speak, I am all civilized people......!

"Oh, they're all civilized people......?

……

The two guys who were entertaining together back then have found a good feeling back then, but they always make Lao Tian on the side look a little shameless?

"Well, maybe it's a delusion!"

Lao Tian muttered quietly on the side.
