117. Farewell
"If you like a star, can you feel that life is not boring?"
How boring are these children now, so that they can look for the content of life from others?
"Real life is just boring, usually just class, eating, sleeping...... Go shopping or go home on weekends, but I'll go with you! I eat noodles that really help my physical and mental health! I eat every day like a little sun, and you won't be bored when you look at her! I watched the Cut I ate during the exam week last semester, and I can learn a little bit every night!"
I'm not bored when I look at it......
Chi Chi stared at that sentence for a few seconds, and then looked at his thin arms and legs.
She has always known that there is a "generation gap" between herself and those "peers", but she never expected that this is not only a generation gap, but also a difference between species. She looks at others like a child, and others see her basking in the sun?
Youbaobao: "Huh, Huahua, you're here at Mr. Egg, I'll eat it again, Mr. Egg, I've recently released a few videos of eating ALL, if you're bored, just take a look! Mr. Egg, you're still bored to eat so many delicious things every day, so let's look at your Weibo pictures in the middle of the night, ah, in fact, we can only eat dirt, what can we do?"
Six eggs a day finally turned into eggs: "I just feel like every day is the same as any other day, even if I only spin around one day, it doesn't seem to be a big deal." ”
Yu Bubble: "Chase dramas!Chase novels and updates!Play games!I always think about what you will eat the next day, and I have the motivation to live another dayW('0')W"
Six eggs a day finally turned into eggs: "What about work? Isn't there anything you always want to do? Watching yourself get better and better at those things gives you a great sense of satisfaction." ”
Bubbles: "Give me a clip video!"
It shouldn't be like this......
Leaning on the pillow behind him, Chi Chi looked at the mobile phone in his hand, not knowing what to say for a while.
She used to be old, but she never gave up her exploration and study of acting, she was once sick and broken, but she also felt that something was burning in her body, and those fires never stopped, burning for a full sixty years - in the memory she now remembers, the most vivid and brilliant scene is still in the county town to see the people of the Provincial Repertory Troupe performing, those performances opened the door to a new world for her, let her know that there are people in this world who can live in such a beautiful way, play different roles, and describe different lives.
The girl looked up and saw through the glass cabinet the TV in the room outside.
Today's children have grown up watching these performances since they were young, so it can be said that they are used to it...... 's dedication to acting naturally doesn't have such a strong longing as she did back then.
That's how acting is, but what about the rest?
Hua Xiaohua: "Seven eggs, your tone tonight seems to be the director of teaching, speaking of the director of education, I wanted to be a doctor in elementary school, and I also bought a toy needle or something, but when I was about to take the college entrance examination, there were a lot of medical troubles, and I didn't want to be a doctor." ”
"I learned video editing when I was a sophomore in high school, and I also thought about learning editing in college, but my family didn't agree, so I studied education management and am now a teacher." ”
Speaking of the "dream" of the past, Hua Xiaohua and Youbao's tone were a little embarrassed, it turned out that they also had a time when they simply wanted to do something, but they didn't know when, these things were gone. Even if it's gone, it's just a sigh, there is no dream, they can live, people's lives have all kinds of wonderful, maybe the future career, maybe the future family, will give them the motivation to work hard.
"Sometimes I think about it, people, you are really a social animal, you are needed, your dreams are needed...... That's you, that's your dream. If a person can persist in success without someone else's 'need' to dream, such a person is indeed admirable, but I will never be ashamed that I did not do it. The high development of society is to allow people with different ideas, different classes, and different ideas to live in a society and find their own place. ”
A high level of social development?
Chi Chi felt that Yo Bubble's words still made sense.
Saving zài is reasonable, the prince's saving zài is reasonable, what I have to do is to figure out how to interpret her character, not to criticize and condemn this character.
You Bubbles finally said: "It may be that this environment doesn't require people to have too many 'dreams', so there are fewer people with dreams." ”
Looking at the sentence that appeared on the screen of his mobile phone, Chi Chi had mixed feelings for a while.
People don't have dreams, and actor Tong Guò acts just to create dreams for people, so in their eyes, they are a "sun".
That night, the young actress had a rare dream.
In the dream, she was in a wheelchair, and a little boy of twelve or thirteen years old stood next to her.
"I hope that when I grow up, I can be filial to my grandmother, take care of my parents, and take care of my sister. ”
After saying this, the boy slowly began to grow up, his body gradually lengthened, and the contours of his facial features changed, only the firm eyes did not change.
"I don't know what you need, I don't know what I can do for you, and I'm even confused when it comes to you. ”
She was still sitting, but the boy had grown into a full-grown man, with a long body and handsome features.
"You never have problems, no difficulties, no negative feelings, you make me feel like you don't need me, you don't need a voice, you don't need anyone...... But I don't even know how to face you...... When I was a child, I always thought that when I grew up, you would not have to work so hard, but when I really grew up, you still sheltered us like a mountain, and you would not fall when the mountain collapsed...... Then why do I have to be obsessed with growing up all these years?"
"Perhaps, Jinyin and I are just a sustenance that you can't pursue your dreams and talk more than nothing, you are too strong, a little bit of strength is enough to convey to us through your teachings, it is enough to make you appear extremely wise and loving, but we are your grandson and granddaughter, we want to support you, we want to share the burden on your shoulders that we cannot see...... Aren't the ones who help each other and support each other?"
"We may not be ...... by your needs"
In the faint morning light, Chi Chi opened his eyes suddenly.
Prince, in her self-perception, she is also not needed by the world, and the reason why she doesn't need others, or even the flow of time, is precisely because others don't need her.
"How do you become a person who is not needed by society?"
With this question, Chi Chi started running at four o'clock in the morning, and she wanted to empty her brain so that she could become Chen Fengchu instead of a prince during her working hours.
As for the dream that belonged to the past, it was heavily pressed in her heart.
After several twists and turns, Chen Fengchu finally allowed Guan Jincheng to return to the capital from Western Xinjiang.
He pretended to be "a dying will of a girl who traveled together" to present evidence that Guan Jincheng was framed.
The Queen Mother ordered Prince Gong to investigate the case thoroughly, and Chen Fengchu's praise for his meritorious service in offering dishes was also ignored intentionally or unintentionally.
"It's good to have a life left, and it's superfluous to think about anything else. One chef said, "Those who dare to sue the emperor are still alive, for a hundred years...... What's more, you still made this show at Lafayette's birthday banquet. ”
Even if he didn't receive any awards, the whole Jinlou was still like a cloud because of Chen Fengchu, Chen Fengchu's "Five Immortals Offering Longevity" was praised by people who had seen it, and the dignitaries wanted to taste this good dish that even the Queen Mother was full of.
It was also at this time that Chen Fengchu made a decision.
"You're leaving?"
A few years have passed, and the young shopkeeper of the Jinlou has grown a mustache, at this time he raised his hand and touched the corner of his lips.
"It just so happened that the contract with the Jinlou had also arrived, and my master officially let me become an apprentice before returning to his hometown, and he should still have a long experience to further progress in cooking. ”
Because the young cook was famous and rewarded, the black-brown shorts on his body were completely gone, and a dark blue robe was worn on his body, which made him still thin and thin, but his posture was high, and his face was clean.
"Even if you want to leave, you have to wait for that Guan Ju person to come back before leaving, you almost lost your life for him, he always should kowtow to you. ”
"I was only entrusted and loyal to others. ”
Chen Fengchu had a faint smile on his face, he had always been laughed at by a few naughty apprentices over the years, and he looked more feminine than smiling. Now he smiled, and the well-informed shopkeeper was a little dumbfounded.
After returning from the palace, there is something different about Chef Chen Feng, some of the chefs say that he has returned from the catastrophe and matured, and some say that he has been hiding in his heart for many years and is finally relieved.
But the shopkeeper knows that those reasons are all and they are not.
"You've been ...... all these years It's all for him......"
Chen Fengchu raised his eyes sharply and looked at the shopkeeper for a moment.
"When you asked me about Dengwengu, I guessed ......" The shopkeeper smiled bitterly, he is not one of those chefs whose eyes are thicker than the tail of a cow, after so many years of getting along, it is impossible for him to be unaware of some things.
"You're wrong. ”
Chen Fengchu lowered his eyes again, and there was some relief in those eyes that no one could look at. The feelings outside of relief are too complicated and indescribable, like the intersection of countless undercurrents, and she can't tell them apart herself.
"I'm not for him, I'm ......"
Those life and death are miserable, those things in the world are bloody and tearful...... Those days and nights in the kitchen with knives and fire, all appeared in his eyes at this moment, who is he?
Who went through that qiē and then stood here?
It's Chen Fengchu.
He is Chen Fengchu.
"It's just for myself, if I say it's for others to get to where I am now, it's obviously belittled myself. ”
Chen Fengchu said lightly, and turned away under the complicated gaze of the shopkeeper.
From the back, no one can tell that "he" is a woman.
Ten miles away from the capital, there is a ten-mile pavilion, it has always been a visitor who witnesses the joys and sorrows, whether it is a tourist in the sea or a white-clothed showman, they are all here to tell each other's feelings, express their hearts, and then cherish each other, the end of the world is separated.
Today's weather is excellent, and from a distance, Guan Jincheng saw the Shili Pavilion.
"Shili Pavilion, we only have ten miles left from Beijing. ”
The years of wind and sand have made him black and thin, and he is also old, and his hands are full of calluses, coarse, and with frost cracks that did not fully heal last winter.
His expression was not as gentle and arrogant as Wen Xin remembered, but more like a middle-aged servant, with unconscious sorrow.
After learning the news of the pardon and returning to Beijing, his classmates in the court immediately sent people who could be used around him to pick him up in the western Xinjiang.
Along the way, Guan Jincheng asked the same question countless times.
"Rehabilitate that person for me, did you ever say that he knew a woman named Wen Xin?"
The man, surnamed Chen, was a cook, and said that there was a flood on the road to Beijing, and a woman rescued him and gave him the evidence before he died. ”
"Alas...... No, it won't. ”
Guan Jincheng said firmly again.
"Wen Xin, he must still be alive. ”
He believed that Wen Xin was alive and well, and he also hoped that others would believe the same as him.
The man said no more, and continued on the dusty road in his carriage.
On the hillside opposite Shili Pavilion, Chen Fengchu watched Guan Jincheng sit in a carriage without a carport and look around, the distance between the two of them was once very close, and then gradually became farther away.
If you haven't met, you don't know that the lovesickness has entered the bones, Chen Fengchu's face slowly showed an expression that belonged to Wen Xin, looking at the man who saved her life, taught her to read and learn calligraphy, and once occupied her whole world, she kept looking at him with admiration.
She thought about looking at each other.
She thought about cutting candles and talking at night.
She thought about each other becoming a part of each other's lives, never separating, and growing old together.
As long as she beckons now, shouts, and acknowledges that she is Wenxin, those beliefs that have supported her in countless hardships can become reality.
In the end, she watched the carriage move slowly and did not make any movements.
Chen Fengchu's eyes were filled with tears, she slowly closed her eyes, and slowly opened them, her eyelids seemed to be burdened with great weight, just like her decision, so heavy that it was almost difficult for her to breathe.
Then she turned around, turned her back to the direction of the capital, and walked towards her own place, where the footsteps of the man became lighter and faster.
