072. This is life
Although the story told by Wang Zihan is only a case, this story tells a fact: the poor do not necessarily understand happiness, and the rich do not necessarily understand happiness. Whether we understand happiness or not www.biquge.info in fact, it is not how we live today, how we live tomorrow, the key is to see if we know how to cherish everything we have now.
The Sichuan couple understands, so although they have to work until late at night every day, compared with those rich people who don't go to the dance hall or drink and chat when it's dark, they may have nothing in this city, and even the slightly borrowed room is very damp and dark, but they help each other all the way, eat in the same pot, share salt and no salt, and live a sweet and beautiful life, which is happiness.
The men and women who go to the bar as soon as it gets dark or soak in the bar are an even more obvious sight, and when they have enough of jumping or getting drunk, they forget about their husbands or wives and run away to have sex with other men and women. In their opinion, this is happiness, but as far as society as a whole is concerned, their behavior is simply immoral, no different from animals. Or to put it more bluntly, they are a bunch of rich beasts living in the city.
It is precisely because of the existence of these beasts that the city surrounded by reinforced concrete has changed its taste, and the original simple people have become well-dressed beasts who are deceitful and powerful. Cities surrounded by reinforced concrete have planted the seeds of all kinds of evil, and from this they have spawned all kinds of criminal behaviors, such as drug abuse, such as fraud, such as robbery, and so on. So today, it is difficult to find a simple spiritual existence in the city, and even if there is, it is dusty.
Although the story told by Wang Zihan is just a story, the content of this story is something that is difficult for a great philosopher to study thoroughly. Life is originally simple, but people in our society make it complicated. Simplicity is life, and there is no need to look at everything too mysteriously.
It's just like us, we all have eyes, nose, ears and mouth, but because of the different styles and colors of clothes we wear, because of the different ornaments on our necks, ears, hands and feet, and because of the different colors of our hair and the different cosmetics such as fat and gouache applied to our faces, even for twin brothers or sisters, they have become completely different people. It can be said that the faster the society develops and the more it is packaged, the farther away people will be from their true nature.
If you walk down the street, if you are without makeup, some people will say, "Why is that person so old!" But when you put on makeup and put on fashionable and trendy clothes again, people's eyes will light up and say in unison, "Who is that, dressed so beautifully?" In the past, when one person complimented another, it was common to say, "Ouch, you're so good-looking." Now one person praises another person, and the most common thing he says is, where did you buy this dress, so beautiful. You see, people in the past liked to praise people directly, but now people like to praise clothes.
Clothes aren't people, you might say. In fact, there is nothing wrong with today's people praising people, because praising clothes is more intelligent and more knowledgeable than directly praising people, you think, if someone sees you and says that you are so rich, your clothes are all brands, how awkward and embarrassing you say!
People who get your praise are naturally happy. If we are all like this, then we are all happy, and this is the positive energy we advocate. No matter what kind of problems you encounter, please believe that there is no obstacle that cannot be crossed, there is no mountain that cannot be climbed, and everything will slowly become the past in the smoke that rises and rises. What has passed is the years, and what has passed is the youth. Youth passes, your face grows old, as long as you don't cheat life, you are happy.
Leo Tolstoy, the great man of Russia, said that happy families are the same, and unhappy families have their own misfortunes. When Tang Tang said this, Cao Zijian and Lao Ban saw at the same time that there were tears flashing in the corners of Tang Tang's eyes. The reason why she cried was because she was so envious of the simple and unpretentious Sichuan couple in front of her, the two of them were dressed very ordinary, and they didn't wear any accessories, but they loved each other like this, without the deception and disguise of the city, everything was so natural and simple.
It's like the four seasons of the year, spring, summer, autumn and winter, obviously very, no need to disguise, but spring is coming, no one needs to say, you will also see the traces of spring from the changes of flowers and plants, summer is like this, autumn is like this, winter is also like this. Just like the Sichuan couple that Tang Tang saw at this moment. Wang Zihan, He Zhou and Han Leilei didn't speak, just quietly looked at Tang Tang who let the tears flow, Lao Ban and Cao Zijian didn't have so much emotion, at this moment, wine was enough.
The old class had already drunk two second brothers, and Cao Zijian had a smaller amount of wine, and he also drank more than one. The old class said to the man, "Brother, there is another one." The man stood up with a grin, tilted his head and asked Cao Zijian if he wanted another one. Cao Zijian looked at the remaining half bottle of wine in the bottle and said that he would drink it.
Wang Zihan also drank most of the wine, He Zhou barely drank much, at most less than five yuan, Tang Tang was about to drink to the bottom, so she first used tears to express the sequelae of the girl's drinking, that is, crying. Boys like to howl when they are drunk, and girls cry when they are high, which is a different expression of the lifestyle of men and women.
The woman still looked at everyone with a smile and did not speak. It can be seen that she should have been quite beautiful when she was young, because although she has stepped into the ranks of middle-aged people, her waist is also long, her face is also dough, and the corners of her eyes are wrinkled, but her words and deeds, every smile and smile still can't hide the elegance and charm of the year. Wang Zihan raised the wine glass and walked towards her, and said sweetly to the eldest sister, "Come, let's have a drink." The simple words immediately aroused the woman's interest, she didn't think about it, she took the wine bottle handed to her by Wang Zihan, raised her neck and swallowed it, took a piece of paper and wiped her lips, and said, "It's so spicy!"
"This wine tastes spicy. Wang Zihan's style of speaking and doing things is somewhat like the spicy woman in "Dragon Gate Inn". The woman looked at her and said, "You are so beautiful, you look like the person in the painting." Wang Zihan had never heard anyone praise himself so much, so he couldn't help but smile happily and said: "You look better, you have a round face, crooked eyes, and you like it when you look at it." "It's fake to look better, but it's true to be likeable.
A girl's heart is sometimes really elusive, but when she says she likes it, she expresses her anger, and when she is really angry, she expresses her liking. The so-called needle in a woman's heart, it's true. Listening to his woman chatting with a group of young girls about women, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of the man's eyebrows.
So, when Cao Zijian and Lao Ban persuaded him to have a bottle too, he smiled shyly and joined the drinking camp. So, three men and four women drank together for a while, and then they drank their own again, and the atmosphere was so lively and happy.
Drinking and drinking, the topic of the woman came, from the words of her tongue getting shorter, Wang Zihan, Han Leilei and Tang Tang heard it, the woman in front of her named Cuihua, her hometown is Guizhou, her husband is from Sichuan, her surname is Tan, her nickname is Tan Sanwa, and her scientific name is Tan Sibing, and Tan Si is the same generation as Tan Si who shouted happily "I laugh at the sky".
The wine was crisp, the barbecue was fragrant, and the conversation was mixed in, and the night passed slowly. No one would believe that a group of young college students would have such a deep and thorough chat with a couple who set up a barbecue stall. In fact, they should also talk, because people are actually equal to each other, whether you are in a high position or have a lot of money, you are at most a person, not more than others.
You have to know that even if you have an extra organ, it only means that you are disabled. Otherwise, you are nothing. If you insist that you are taller than others or a level higher than others, then you are finished, because whether you are tall or not, whether you are superior or not, it is not up to you to decide, it depends on what others say. That's life.
Life is a bar, people are just a grain of sand, when the rolling water smooths the edges and corners, life, has gradually grown old. So, young people always like to fantasize, middle-aged people always like to enjoy, and old people always like to add memories. Just like at this moment, Wang Zihan, Han Leilei, Tang Tang, Lao Ban and Cao Zijian are immersed in the past of the couple's love for each other, and slowly taste the wonderful bits and pieces of their lives. And the couple themselves, in each other's eyes, slowly enjoy this rare time in front of them. Only when they are husband and wife are together, although they are also beautiful, but there seems to be something missing in them,—— only youth can make up for the shortcomings of life! This is also the reason why many old people like to listen to the young people put things on their faces.
"When you get married, start a family, and have children, you will know what life is like, what we are talking about today is just the bits and pieces of our marriage for more than 20 years, as for the true taste, only wait for you to taste it slowly. Because of the drinking, the shy man is no longer shy, and he doesn't stammer, but his face is more ruddy, "In my life, I thank my wife from the bottom of my heart, she turned me into a real man, if it weren't for her, maybe I was still playing single, and I could only hold the pillow at night and think about women......"
A loud slap brought out a string of laughing scoldings from the woman: "Knifed, what are you talking about, there are still several girls here! If you dare to chew the root of your tongue again, I will knock out your full teeth, see if you dare to chew around!"
