Chapter 2
Qin Gang on the shore of the lake was a little dizzy, slowly digesting all this. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
The mysterious white bird that disappeared in one fell swoop made him take it for granted that it was a hallucination that appeared after a near-death experience of life and death.
In short, it feels good to survive the catastrophe and save the day, and it feels like something good is about to happen to him.
The fame is in vain again, and there is no fishing boat, this only tool for making a living, farming, I don't like it, the most important thing is that he is so poor that he has no land, and the landlord in the village is unwilling to rent land to him, because he has no "experience", in fact, he is not at ease with Qin Gang's ability to do things.
These heavy livelihood burdens no longer seem to be burdens, and now Qin Gang seems to have put these burdens down psychologically, moving forward lightly, and the rising sun in front of him is shining on the road ahead.
Walking briskly as he prepared to return to his cabin, he heard the crackling sound of firecrackers along the way.
"Oops, today is the annual ancestor worship day, this is a big day, this big occasion has to go hard. Forget it, I've already been counted as a person who has died once, and there's nothing else I can't see. Qin Gang looked at his embarrassed appearance, his clothes were still wet, and his hair was unkempt, and he thought very old-fashionedly.
Qin Gang often makes a fool of himself, but he is far from being used to making a fool of himself.
I don't want to meet acquaintances to see me so ridiculous, but who in the village is not an acquaintance.
Now inside and outside the ancestral hall in the village, there are busy figures everywhere, some are blowing suona, which is a harsh sound, some are slaughtering livestock, screaming for hundreds of miles, and some are tearing money and burning paper, planting incense and burning candles, and so on.
A lively and cheerful scene.
Seeing such a lively scene, Qin Gang didn't like it, not that he didn't like the excitement, but on a crowded occasion, he couldn't help but have a bad taste in his fellow villagers who knowingly asked if he was in high school;
There is no news from Wang Coal Po, don't be discouraged if you can't marry a daughter-in-law, everything will be fine, and so on.
Even the real lack of fun in it made him extremely embarrassed.
He is a loser, Qin Gang actually agrees with this point of view more than others, but he can't stand the fact that someone comes to remind him "kindly" all the time.
But this is the only way home, gritting his teeth, Qin Gang almost ran away as if running home.
On the one hand, he said to himself that this time he could finally deal with these problems calmly.
But it's strange that this dignity doesn't attract the attention of others.
It's a bit of a self-deception, and it's probably a feeling that everyone has.
This kind of luck has to cover up a bit of the psychology of stealing the bell, it's just a matter of more and less.
"This isn't a showman, I didn't come back last night, didn't I go to find a good match. Neighbor Li Dahan smiled, if Qin Gang really had a good relationship, he would not come to ridicule Qin Gang, he would drool and say, flowers are inserted in cow dung.
"Xiucai, have you been in high school, aren't you full of confidence in ****?" Mrs. Wang, who obviously has a good memory, nagged and asked again, and she had asked this question ten times in total.
"Qin Gang, you didn't go fishing yesterday, looking at you like this, it seems that you fell into the water. A middle-aged man scraping a hare, the only one in the village who was still willing to call him by his name, asked.
He is a good hunter in the village, and arguably the only one who still looks up to him.
It was still discovered, and it was discovered by a group of fellow villagers, and at first I thought that something good was happening, why was it so declining, and I met a group of people at once.
Of course, he is not the only one who has come out of the village in the village, and several others have been named on the gold list again and have gone to other places to become officials, only Qin Gang, an "older" candidate, is still rushing to take the exam.
In fact, how to say that nineteen years old can be regarded as an old age, because Qin Gang also had a glorious time before, he was a talent in the examination at the age of ten, and he even took the exam later, but he failed in the exam, and the future was unpopular with everyone, and the name of the prodigy in childhood was too strong.
only made the people in the same village think that he was an "older candidate"
Xiucai is, of course, a title with a bit of ridicule.
"Uncle Li, not only that, but the ship also sank. "Qin Gang is not dead, his mentality is much more relaxed, and he is still a little entangled at the beginning, and there is nothing wrong with it later, and he can't care too much about what others think of him.
He could only think that the fact that they repeated these unpleasant questions was just a harlequin to make up for the monotony of life, but unfortunately he himself was the harlequin in their eyes.
"The boat is gone, it's a bit troublesome, or you can learn to hunt with me in the future. After saying this, the other villagers looked at the famous hunter with a look of admiration.
The person who was called Uncle Li by Qin Gang leaked a satisfied expression at this moment, as if he enjoyed the respect that others had for him.
"But ......" Of course Qin Gang is willing, this middle-aged man's hunting skills are very good, and force is what Qin Gang is very eager for, because force can make people strong, and only after being strong can they have self-confidence.
Being strong can enhance self-confidence, and being confident can be even stronger.
Now he believes more in the front of the sentence, and years later, he recognizes the latter part of the sentence more.
Just as he was about to finish saying the word "can", the middle-aged man quickly diverted the topic again.
"Qin Gang, seeing that you are still hesitant, seeing that you have not made up your mind yet, you should concentrate on testing your fame. Originally, after worshipping the ancestors, I was going to go up the mountain to hunt, and I will first hunt you to see and see, but I heard that there are grizzly bears at the foot of the West Mountain, and you are not familiar with the situation of the mountains and forests, and you may encounter danger, so I will take you when I hunt in the group next time. ”
After "Uncle Li" finished speaking, he fled and left.
"Alas, it seems that I am really too Muna, this Uncle Li in his mouth is not the first time to propose, just when he was about to agree, he diverted the topic, looked at it left and right, and clearly borrowed me to increase some prestige in the village, and he was naïve to take it seriously. This is not the first time, nor will it be the last. Alas, people always learn and don't learn their lessons. ”
But this is really the last time.
Qin Gang also hurried back, and he had to come over when the time came, everyone in the village must participate in this kind of activity, and if he didn't go, he would be asking for trouble.
Otherwise, Qin just now didn't like to participate in this kind of ceremony of kneeling and kowtowing.
This time, I didn't have to be embarrassed to meet acquaintances.
Back in the deserted and dilapidated courtyard, a large plane tree swayed in the wind at the door.
After changing into clean clothes that had been patched many times, he walked nervously to the ancestral hall, a crowded place always made him uncomfortable, more precisely, he didn't like a crowded place, but the feeling of being ignored and ignored.
Oh, who would like that.
Loneliness is not terrible, but loneliness in the bustle is the deep suffering.
I saw that the rice in the field of Mrs. Wang's house outside had already sprouted.
Because he had no land, he had to make a living by fishing, which was also the reason why Qin Gang's status in the village was underground, and farming was always better than fishing.
Therefore, every time he passed by a field that was a symbol of wealth and a field that could be passed down from generation to generation, he would inevitably look at it more often.
Although Keyi walked slowly, he still came to that lively place, and many people were busy. Qin Gang deliberately walked slowly, so that as soon as he came, he could only "rub the rice" and experience less embarrassing moments.
Oh no, it should go a little slower.
Finding a remote corner, Qin Gang sat alone in an inconspicuous position, feeling at a loss. Fortunately, no one came to "ask" about fame and marriage, but they were also comfortable.
Finally, it's time to get down to business.
A majestic old man walked out slowly, and a breathless cough sounded, and the noisy sound in the field immediately disappeared, and there was no sound.
Everyone had an expression of adoration on their faces, including Qin Gang, who thought that this patriarch was indeed a person with great ability and respect.
This village where Qin Gang lives is called Qinjia Village, a very wealthy village, with more than ten people who are capable and famous. There are several others who have already learned and excelled. Nearby villages, and even families with girls in the county town, are willing to marry their daughters.
However, more than 40 years ago, it was also very poor, and it was these people who did not even get a show of talent and fame many times who gathered the people in the village, opened mountains and built roads, collectively hunted, and pioneered mountains, so now this Qin village is the richest village in the whole county. Everyone respected him.
However, while Qin Gang admired this patriarch, he also thought that it was too rigid and rigid, a typical example of education under the book of sages, emphasizing etiquette and kinship, and attaching great importance to this kind of ancestor worship ceremony, everyone surnamed Qin must be present, and if there is no convincing reason to be absent, it will hardly be able to gain a foothold here in the future.
As long as he gives the order, the whole village listens to him.
And Qin Gang didn't like this kind of ritual, because he didn't like to "kowtow", kowtowing like a puppet to his ancestors who didn't even know their names for more than ten generations.
That looks stupid.
But Qin Gang doesn't like mavericks.
So at the ceremony, he still followed the other villagers, reluctantly kowtowing, with a complicated look of disdain and helplessness on his face, and these were all seen by the mysterious young man.
After reciting a prayer that was not lengthy, there was finally no such thing as a dead man.
is about to transfer to the living, find a remote location, you can have a big meal, for this link, he quite likes.
It's always nice and peaceful to have a big meal.
Tranquility and tranquility don't last long.
"Qin Gang, I sat down so early, and I was still active in grabbing the stool, Xiucai. The neighbor's big man said disgustingly.
Hearing this, Qin Gang, who often encounters this kind of person and this kind of thing, did not run away because of this truth.
Although it is true that he did not help with some chores, he is also justified in the fact that the fish on this table were all caught when his own fishing boat was not yet broken.
Even if he makes a part, he is definitely the top in the village, Qin Gang thought about it very casually, and he was even more at ease.
The reason why he is so "generous" is that he wants to gag some people's mouths and not want to be ridiculed on the occasion of this party, which is a small wish and a reasonable demand, but it can't be realized.
In life, there are always some people who take pleasure in ridiculing and ridiculing losers who think they are inferior to them.
It's not that these people are vicious, it's that those people are often good-hearted people. I don't know what hurt others, and sometimes words hurt more than the flesh.
This is another neighbor who ridiculed Qin Gang, he has a happy family, lives a wealthy life, and treats people kindly, of course, those who he thinks deserve his equal treatment.
Qin Gang replied casually, in fact, he looked down on Qin Gang, how could Qin Gang look down on him.
Finally busy, people began to serve the table one after another, but unfortunately Qin Gang was the only one at this table, because no one wanted to share the table with the recognized loser in this village.
The other tables in the back were full, and only then did someone reluctantly sit under Qin Gang's table, and complained without any scruples. Rao is Qin Gang's cheek and soul are already very strong in resisting blows, and he is also in a very uncomfortable mood at this time.
On the contrary, the big man next door, who often made fun of Qin Gang, sat next to Qin Gang very early and smiled kindly. At that moment, this big man next door felt really heaven and earth.
People are really complicated.
