Chapter 54: Cruelty and Bitterness in the City

The bustling big city has made countless people yearn for reverie, and some people have crossed thousands of miles and left their hometowns to break in alone. However, the strictness of the rules of survival has also led to many people suffering heavy losses, and finally being eliminated and returning home.

There are only a few people who are truly successful!

Those who are inside the walls think of the outside of the walls, and those who are outside the walls think of the walls!

Man is a strange creature, often blinded by desires, and how can life be satisfied?

Two years after being separated from the electrician, Mo Wei walked a long way, and his footprints were all over the corners and alleys of the city.

After work, the night curtain is completely drawn, and there should be brilliant neon lights everywhere, but here there is none.

A dark and deep alley, only a few households are lit with faint lights, Mo Wei sits on the stone steps on both sides of the road, his mood is particularly depressed, how difficult it is to be in a big city, and the reality of society over the years He has a deep experience, often can only sigh and stop, continue to invest in the heavy life.

Not far from where Mo Wei sat was a privately run courier station, which was also a small company, and this is where he works now.

Fortunately, he grew up in this big city and has long since adapted to the living environment here, including the cruel rules of survival.

And others are not as lucky as him, in the past few years when Mo Wei has been running around, he has lacked contact with people, most of them are foreigners, and their ages are different, there are guys who have just turned eighteen years old, and middle-aged uncles who are still working hard in their thirties.

They all came to this big city alone or a few fellow villagers, and before they arrived, they were full of expectations and longings, and when they really set foot here and experienced the cruel status quo, they lost all illusions.

Some people have strong adaptability, from luxury to thrift, diligence and thrift, return to their hometown after a few years of hard work, marry a beautiful wife and have children, and live a small life. Although some people have jobs and earn a lot of money every day, they don't know how to cherish them diligently and thriftily, and when they are finally eliminated, they can't even afford a ticket to return to their hometown.

The big city is like a stage, people stand under the stage, full of expectations in their hearts, hoping that one day they can climb on it, and then show their style, but they don't know that the cruel status quo of the superior and inferior is often hit very badly.

Mo Wei is not a peaceful person, especially when it comes to his own heart, he is often willing to follow, so that he can feel comfortable and for a meaningful thing.

His heart told him to experience life, so he did, but he also suffered a lot of blows, and eventually this thought was worn out by time.

This is a good idea, but the impact is not encouraging. In order to meet this inner need, he has been busy in the past few years, shuttling in various fields and industries, his knowledge has increased a lot, and his social experience has also come out, but the money cannot be accumulated, and he has been scattering outward.

Just before working in the express delivery industry, his pockets were empty, his money was completely gone, and he could no longer support the needs of life, and even pulled down his face to ask for help from his playmate Dongzi, who he hadn't seen for several years.

"Brother Mo, I'm so happy to see you!" Dongzi was very enthusiastic, and his words were very kind, and then he greeted him a few times, and the smile on his fat face remained undiminished.

Dongzi is a 98-year-old teenager, four years younger than Mo You, chubby, with oblique and long bangs, just like a killing Matt image, when Mo Wu saw him again, he was very surprised, almost didn't recognize him, in addition to being as fat as when he was a child, he completely changed.

In fact, the relationship between him and Dongzi is not very familiar, and when they first came to SH, the two said a few words because of their close family background, and they left a good impression on each other.

Mo Yu's arrival reminded Dongzi of his innocent childhood, he was very happy, and he also extended a helping hand.

Dongzi is young, still underage, but has long since abandoned school, so as to enter the society, Mo Wei lived with him for a month, can see him riding a bicycle, going out at dawn and returning in the dark, which makes him quite touched, but also completely dispelled the slightest thought in his heart that wants to experience life.

"Dongdong, let's go, brother invites you to dinner. It was dark, Dongzi rushed back to the dormitory, and Mo Wei said with a smile.

Dongzi was surprised, and said, "You are already very unsatisfactory, so you still have the money to invite me to dinner?"

The two went to the roadside stall in the alley by moonlight and ordered a few stir-fried vegetables and a plate of peanuts, plus a case of beer.

"You order so much, can you drink it?"

"If you can't drink it and then retreat, is it possible that our brother can't solve this beer even if he can't solve it?"

"That's it. ”

Then the two burst into laughter.

An hour passed, the two of them roared loudly, fighting wine there, no one let anyone, don't worry about running outside all these years, it is inevitable that this kind of scene is indispensable, and the amount of alcohol is also rising all the way, Dongzi has just entered the society, naturally he can't fight, and in the end people are a little drunk.

At this time, Mo Wei opened his mouth and said, "Dongdong, I'll leave tomorrow, it's been a long time and it's over, thank you very much for your hospitality during this time." ”

"Be polite to me two, no trouble, no trouble. Dongzi shook his head and shook his finger at it, suddenly stood up, and shouted, "What?

"Yes, I have contacted one of my uncles and he has arranged for me to work as soon as I get there. ”

"Well, come, I toast you and wish you all the best. Dongzi was a little disappointed at first, but after a while, he thought about it, and raised a glass to congratulate Mo Wu.

"Dongdong, listen to my brother's advice, you are still young, if you still have the opportunity to continue going to school, then don't hesitate, understand? "Mo Wei knows that Dongzi insisted on giving up school by himself, which is very undeserved, as his good buddy, he should be persuaded and persuaded.

"Thank you, Brother Mo, I'll think about it. ”

The next day, Dongzi got up early in the morning to go to work as usual, and Mo Wei also got up at this point, and before leaving, the two waved goodbye.

"Brother, goodbye!" Mo Wei patted him on the shoulder.

"Hmm. Dongzi said in a low voice, a little reluctant.

......

The road is very long, Mo Yu dragged the burden all the way forward, accompanied by the roar of the car and the words of passers-by, it seemed very noisy, the scenery along the way was also renewed, the roots of the ears were finally cleaned a lot, Mo Yu stopped in front of an intermediary company.

How could any uncle introduce him to work? Those were all lies he made up in order not to bother Dongzi again!

Even so, Mo Wei is also prepared. Just a few days ago, he successfully borrowed 800 yuan from his classmate Mouse, 300 invited Dongzi to eat last night, and found an intermediary to introduce the job for 500, and kept the remaining 100 for himself.

......

Returning to reality, Mo Wei sat on the stone steps on both sides of the road, remembering the past, his heart was full of bitterness, and his tears were mixed with a little touch, which made him gasp until now.

There is also guilt coiling in his heart, the main thing is that he owes too much to people, and his friends are always helping him, but he can't reciprocate it, and these aids are not enough for a meal, he thinks so.

The next day, Mo Wei got up early, as usual, put the courier in the basket, and then carried out a day's work and shuttled between the cities.

This express delivery profession, including food and housing, did not worry about earning more than 10,000 yuan for three months, and was quite tired, and finally chose to dismiss.

The most important thing is that no matter how far he goes, how many jobs he changes, he can't get rid of the loneliness of being alone, and his heart is full of exhaustion.
