(7) Ideals are like torches

Wen Zhu stayed at home for almost a month, and he was a little bored. I feel like I'm fine, I'm at home and the shadows are wandering all day, eating, sleeping, eating, watching TV, and flipping through books.

The cicadas outside the window are not lonely, and they have been singing for Wenzhu, because they have been holding back underground for several years, and they have been singing for a season, and Wenzhu does not care about them.

When I was a child, the cicada was still a living toy of Wenzhu, the big one was called the cicada, the small one was called the grub, and the male and female did not sing.

With a long bamboo pole top glued to the sticky, Wen Zhu used flour and tendons, taking advantage of its unpreparedness, quick attack, seven or eight times out of ten success. Or install a small net bag on the top of a long bamboo pole or something like that, the key is to be fast, accurate, and ruthless.

It is always a pleasure to catch a cicada, Wenzhu sometimes shows off to his companions, afraid that it will fly, fold half of its wings, or tie its legs with a thin thread, grab the other end of the line, and let it fly around, but it can't fly out of control, and there is the pleasure of "Sun Monkey can't escape from the palm of the Buddha's hand".

Sometimes, if you are not careful, you don't grasp the other end of the line, and the cicadas fly out, most of them still stumble on the branches and starve to death.

"Praying mantis catching cicadas" has seen, the cicadas are crying happily, the praying mantis is waiting behind, silently approaching, only listening to the rapid "chirp" sound is gone, attracting not a female cicada, but a killer mantis. The yellow finch never reappeared, a little regrettable.

Parents always go out early and return late for a lunch break, saying that it is cool and easy to work at both ends. Avoiding the sun at noon, poisoning people from heat stroke.

There is always endless work, hoeing, watering, insect control, fertilization, pruning, busy, and I can't persuade you. Because of the good service, the saplings of the Wenzhu family are always neat and in shape than others, and the selling price is naturally higher.

On rainy days, rubbing grass ropes at home comes in handy when walking trees. Even if I'm not working, I'll want to do something to do and tidy up the corners of my house.

Wen Zhu sometimes liners his hands, such as watering and the like, his parents look at his clumsy appearance, but they dislike it, which makes Wen Zhu panic and feel like a waste person. In fact, it was the parents who felt sorry for Wenzhu and didn't want him to tan under the scorching sun.

Wen Zhu sometimes goes to Dong Mei's shop to sit down, and when he sees the three of them busy and leisurely, he always feels redundant and goes less.

Dong Mei hopes that Wen Zhu will accompany her every day, and with her beloved, she feels that she has endless energy. The walking posture is also much lighter, and the song in his mouth is constantly humming.

The skin of a woman moisturized by love became smoother and smoother, and the two apprentices were envious, and they always asked the master what was the secret recipe? Dong Mei always said: "You are still young, you will know when the time comes." "The smoothness of the skin is related to age? The two apprentices felt more and more mysterious, and they couldn't ask why, but the master became happier and happier.

Liu Chengbang has been so busy smoking lately, renovating his house at home, and has no time to pay attention to Wenzhu. However, Wenzhu helped him for a few days, taking care of the entry and exit of building materials.

His younger brother Wenhui is studying in Wuxi, and he will not have a summer vacation until a few days.

The playmates in the village when they were young were also busy with their own business, and they were very polite when they met, and they left after a few words. You can't turn back time, and rustiness is inevitable.

In the evening, Wenzhu often takes a bath in the Wendong River and swims back and forth for one or two. The river is still the same river, and there is always no childhood joy. Looking at the sunset in the west, the sky was dyed red. Wen Zhu thought: It's not a problem to stay at home like this, it's better to go to work early.

Originally, he went to work in August, so Wenzhu made a phone call to the unit and asked: Can you go ahead of time? The unit said okay, Wenzhu seemed to be encouraged, and suddenly became a useful person, how excited Moti was, one could earn money to support himself, and the other was to reduce the burden on his parents. Three people earn money, and it should be easy for Wenhui to go to school alone. Parents don't need to get up early in the morning and stay quiet.

This is not the case, parents are not necessarily more idle than before, they are just as busy, and perhaps the heart of hard work is much more relieved than before. People like parents don't ask for rest unless they have to.

Wen Zhu was busy and ready to go to work. Wen Wenzhu was about to go to work, Cheng Bang put down what he was doing, and asked Dong Mei to go to the "Good Again" restaurant to congratulate Wenzhu for going to work.

After two years of development, the snack bar is much bigger than before, and there are elegant seats upstairs.

Cheng Bang was familiar with the boss, so he chose a private seat upstairs, and the three of them chatted while eating. "You're in such a hurry to go to work, there's gold waiting for you to grab it, why don't you stay at home with us?" Cheng Bang said with a big sip of cold beer.

"I also want to, you are all busy, I am like a wasted person, and my heart is unbalanced. It's a matter of time before you go to work, go one day earlier and get used to it one day earlier. Wenzhu said.

Dong Mei glanced at Wenzhu, no wonder Wenzhu came less later, because she ignored Wenzhu, and her happiness begged him. People who have nothing to do always have more things in their hearts than others, why don't you see it. "Wenzhu, it's me who is not good, patronizing my own business, indifferent to you, don't take it to heart. ”

"Mei, how can I go to my heart, this has nothing to do with you, it's just that I have nothing to do, I am bored, and I am afraid of getting sick. It's a good thing to go to work now, it's been three years since you all debuted, and I can't wait. Wen Zhu made a look of eagerness to try, and seeing Wen Zhu playing treasure, Dong Mei smiled.

"Because of the livelihood, idle people want to go to work, and busy people can't rest if they want to, I understand Wenzhu's feelings. Cheng Bang raised his glass.

"Long live understanding!" Wen Zhu touched Cheng Bang, and the two drank it all. I don't leave half a drop, I'm afraid that I will choke on goldfish.

"Why do you want to go to work in the city? Isn't it nice to be in the country? Like me, free and easy. If you drink too much and talk straight, don't be surprised, brother. Cheng Bang said from the bottom of his heart, he is an unrestrained person.

"Let's two brothers, who is with whom. It's not that the city is better than the countryside, the world in the city is always bigger, and what I learn has to be practiced, and I will decide the rest of my life after three or five years. "College students are mixed in the countryside, and the material is not too big. Wen Zhu didn't say anything, for fear that Cheng Bang would feel uncomfortable listening to it.

"No matter whether people are noble or poor, they have their own dignity, and whether they are the Son of Heaven or Buyi, they have their own growth tracks. In the beginning, don't worry too much about more money and less money. Apply what you have learned, accumulate slowly, accumulate steadily, and then realize your self-worth in life. Dong Mei has tasted the distress of learning uselessly, and said from the bottom of her heart.

"Ame who knows me. Wen Zhu glanced at Dong Mei gratefully, drank it all, and repaid Dong Mei's confidant's words.

"It's gold that always shines. "The icing on the cake is that Cheng Bang is very good at it. "Wenzhu, think about when we were in junior high school, we buried ourselves in martial arts books, and we wanted to be a hero, punishing evil and promoting good. Looking up, it is past the morning of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, so let's be a policeman, and I can also serve the people. Who knows that the police are more difficult to do than heroes, they need academic qualifications, physical fitness, and relationships. In the end, I became a freelancer, uninhibited, and comfortable.

"By the way, Wenzhu, Dong Mei talk about your ideals, speak freely, and maybe have a witness to each other in many years. If you have a goal, you have to struggle, and you can't be lazy. ”

"Our parents gave us bodies, our teachers taught us knowledge, and Jin Yong gave us chivalry. When I was a child, a lollipop could satisfy my wishes, a little older a martial arts book could be exciting for several evenings, and a trip to the city was a great honor in life, because we were the sons of farmers. The goal is small, but it is often achieved, and it is not troubled. We are as simple as the grass on the side of the road, but we are as persistent as the stream in front of the door, and we never give up the pursuit of life. My goal in life is to become a scholar-style millionaire from scratch. Wen Zhu was very excited about Cheng Bang's proposal, and what he said was quite sensational.

"Be a rich man with both talent and wealth. Haha, others can't scold 'stinky old nine' because you have wealth, and they can't scold 'dirt buns' because you are talented. It's just that millions are too few, 'millions are not rich, tens of millions are just starting', and hundreds of millions are more courageous. Cheng Bang's laughter was very penetrating, and he looked full of ambition, as if the world had stepped under his feet.

"'If you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world'. I can't eat enough, and most of my ideals are colorful soap bubbles. If you have more money, you won't always have the right thing. With millions, you can do a lot of things, at least worry-free about food and clothing. It can help some out-of-school children in mountainous areas to fulfill their dreams of learning and going to the city.

"Our 'world' is small, their 'world' is even smaller, and it can be said that they have no other way out except to study. You can always see some of our shadows in them. If you have hundreds of millions, do more charity, and it won't be in vain that you read so many martial arts books. "Wen Zhu always thinks more than others.

"Yes, people live not only for themselves, we connect the previous and the next, many people's eyes focus on us, we only do better, in order to live up to those expectations. After the career is successful, it is necessary to repay the society. The progress of society is due to the positive power of each individual. Cheng Bang continued to climb up the pole of Wenzhu.

"Don't care about lofty ideals, you will be hungry, and the ideals after food and clothing will be more realistic. Seeing Dong Mei say this, Wen Zhu and Cheng Bang ate several mouthfuls of food in a row to comfort their stomachs.

Perhaps the beggar's wish is a rich meal, and what you have is not called an ideal, but a reality, and the ideal will rise with the realization of the boat.

Life is endless, Wen Zhu thinks this is probably the truth.

"Chengbang, your blueprint has already been there, why don't you say it and listen to it, is it amazing, and you have to fight with a certain emperor. There was a hint of counterattack in Wenzhu's ridicule.

Cheng Bang was stunned for a moment, and then woke up: "The first emperor can't fight, so he can only raise a glass to the moon: nostalgia." Fight with today's people, cheers to whom: don't get drunk. I want to set up a landscape engineering company that is the only one in this land and marry a woman who is not inferior to Dong Mei. ”

When it comes to the establishment of a large company, the voice is louder, and when it comes to not inferior, it is obviously much smaller, and I feel that I am wrong, or afraid that others will notice something, unlike Chengbang's style.

"'Not inferior to me'? Chengbang, what do you mean? What kind of boundary do you marry and follow me? What about being inferior to me? Women are men's playthings, and there is a standard, isn't it? It's ridiculous. "Dong Mei launched a rush, and God has to give three points. Cheng Bang is not God, and he doesn't tell anything, he just bows his head and drinks, thinking that if he says too much, he will lose, which is absolutely true.

Wen Zhu saw Cheng Bang's thoughts, and didn't point it out, but said: "Cheng Bang, you can't catch up with the great cause of the first emperor, but Liu Bang's image is far from you, in fact, you are a combination of Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, your mind is as developed as your limbs, and your career will be successful." has a successful career, and is a handsome guy, with Wutong, he is not afraid of not having a phoenix to stay. Just don't learn from your ancestors, marry Lu Pheasant or something. It's best to be complementary, you're stronger, and you're just looking for Yu Ji and the like. ”

Cheng Bang seized the opportunity, like a person who escaped in the water, finally grabbed a lifebuoy, escaped from the embarrassing whirlpool, and was very interested in the question of complementarity: "Wenzhu, do you mean that friends are looking for like-minded people, lovers are looking for complementary ones, and the inner and outer angles of a triangle are complementary?"

Life is philosophy, and sometimes geometry.

Wen Zhu laughed at him: "Isn't it? A complementary lover can make life more lubricated and less prone to conflict. You are strong, she is strong, who will bow your head first? You are speechless, she is speechless, what is the breath of life at home? As the old saying goes, 'a piece of steamed bread and a piece of cake' is set up. You are outside the Lord, she is in the Lord, you publicize her subtlety, you lose everything and she is in order, such a family is harmonious, and the husband and wife live happily. The premise is that the two are good by nature. ”

"Incisive. Setting a standard for me to choose a mate saves me a lot of trouble. One plus one is not necessarily greater than two, and the best is not necessarily your own. Whether the shoes fit or not is only known when the feet are worn. Cheng Bang was thoughtful, and what he said was very philosophical, like fireworks dispersing in the air.

Wen Zhu knew that Cheng Bang's mind would not go in the direction of Dong Mei.

"What are you talking about, it's messy, is it a trick? Or is it unconventional! Can it be simpler, it feels like it's foggy and ethereal?" Dong Mei couldn't hear the outside of the words, and shouted loudly.

"Eat grains, don't think about heavenly things, just want to achieve something in the world. By the way, Dong Mei, tell me about your dreams?" Cheng Bang had let go of the entanglement in his heart.

"I don't have any ideals, it's just that I have a husband and children, a healthy family, and a rich economy. Dong Mei said as she glanced at Wenzhu gently.

When Wen Zhu received Dong Mei's touching glance, the whole person was crisp, and his heart seemed to fly out of his chest, and he didn't dare to move in the storm of happiness, for fear that if he lost his happiness in a flash, he would come to naught. Wen Zhu hated to go to the civil affairs department immediately to get the certificate, but unfortunately the door was closed at night.

"The more ordinary things are, the more real they are, the more profound things are, the more false they are, most people in life like profound things, and they seem to be profound, but in fact, they want to lose face and lose their pockets. Wen Zhu appreciates Dong Mei's blandness is true.

Cheng Bang didn't eat this set, thinking that Dong Mei was deep and too shallow, like perfunctory, but he couldn't force her to say anything, so he could only seize the emotional glance of the two of them and make an article: "The moonlight outside the window is so delicate, and I have one more indoors." Affectionately burns the air, I should go back with the wind, light bulb, you go out!"

For Chengbang's improvisation, Wenzhu and Dong Mei were accustomed to it, and the two walked to the window. The streetlamps guarded the town in the moonlight, and the crescent moon left the willows, and the moonlight poured in like mercury. The stars in the depths of the sky illuminate whose future.
