Chapter 14: Angry Youth
Tomorrow is the Spring Festival, and it is clear that the whole city is empty, except for the airport and the station.
This is the first time that Ah Jiu has felt it with his heart, and there is a real sense of the Spring Festival. When he was first in Oolong Courtyard, the meaning of the Spring Festival was that he could make dumplings to eat, and when he went down the mountain to perform tasks, he, like Wang Siming now, had no time and was not in the mood to go to the Spring Festival. After coming to Korea, the Spring Festival became a lonely festival. The lights of thousands of homes, drinking alone, have become the silhouette of his Spring Festival for three consecutive years. Because on this day, whether it is Park Chanrong or Krystal, he has to be with his family, and he, this lonely ghost without a family, can only drink wine, buy some meat to improve the food, like a little match girl, look at the lights of other people's houses, and imagine what kind of warm Spring Festival they lived.
But this year is different, this year has changed too much, this year he has a lover, a family, and a little life to be born in this world. lost two masters, and found his mother, who had not yet known each other...... A lonely ghost has become a man's son, a man's father, a man's husband, and several people's boyfriends.
It's as if suddenly a robot has the feeling of life, as if a person who has lost everything, a person who has been moldy all his life, suddenly starts to get lucky one day, and all the things he has lost come back in one go.
Happiness is a bit unreal.
IU went to her house tonight because of her long-term acquaintance with 'Aunt Li', in fact, this is an invitation from 'Aunt Li', because tomorrow we are going to make dumplings together for the New Year, so Aunt Li has to prepare a lot of ingredients tonight. She specially called and told her that she didn't need to prepare anything, she had everything covered, and she only needed to tell as many people as she could. Ah Jiu was not polite to her, truthfully told the number of people, and really didn't buy any ingredients, only bought drinks and wine, when he came back from Incheon Airport with Xuefu in the evening, he bought some fireworks near the Han River A.D. by the way, and after eating at night, he dismantled the fireworks in the small garden, poured out gunpowder and made a few 'two kicks', which is also a helpless move, South Korea has very strict control over fireworks, and 'two kicks' can be used as explosives to this extent, and they can't be bought at all.
He tinkered until about half past ten in the evening, and he made twenty 'two kicks', and it is estimated that no one else will put this thing, although twenty is not much, but it is almost enough.
IU wasn't at home and her room was vacant. Shiv had her own guest room, Jessica slept in the upstairs master bedroom, and IU's vacated room was naturally a 'little couple' sleeping together. Ah Jiu tinkered with the 'two kicks', and no one could help, so they all went to bed early, and Krystal also took a shower early and lay down, leaning back against the bedside and holding an iPad to watch a documentary about China. Ah Jiu took a shower, wiped his hair and came over, and took a look, the name of the documentary is called 'Super China', and you know that it must be mainly touted by looking at the name, South Korea has changed almost every year because of its economic dependence in recent years, from the top to the general public. From looking down to treating equally, and then to the current trend of kneeling and licking, it has been less than five years.
This does not mean that Koreans are shameless...... It's all for survival, because of the geographical relationship, South Korea has been pursuing the national policy of 'big things' for thousands of years, referred to as the wall grass, who is strong and who is mixed. No one is born to like this, but if you don't, you can't survive, and there's nothing wrong with it. After all, as long as the people are happy, the answer sheet of the ruler can be considered qualified, and as for the shameless one, it does not matter at all.
It's true that a lot of Koreans care about this kind of thing, but for Krystal, it seems strange that she cares about this kind of thing. Krystal is not a native of Korean, she was born in the United States, although she also has Korean national identity, but that was obtained later, to be precise, she is a so-called 'banana person', the body of a yellow American, the second generation of immigrants, and the sense of identity of the country is not strong. Because they have a universal identity paradox, logically, they want to identify with their parents' country as their motherland, but emotionally, they were born in a country after immigration, and they are naturally closer to this country. Therefore, people who have difficulty in making decisions regard themselves as a 'neutral person' or an 'international person', and they do not have such a strong sense of belonging to the country, and they almost never have the idea of fighting for which country, they are more concerned about themselves and their families, and the other parts are not very important.
Krystal has always been such a child, she values her family more than anything else, but she hardly mentions the country or anything. She likes American culture, and she doesn't reject Korean food, what is good and what she likes, and she will not distinguish between which country this thing is.
That's actually no problem, at least Ah Jiu thinks so. He also had a period of angry youth, but then he thought about it, and the angry youth was actually a very **** thing, because most of the angry youth, except for the 'anger', actually couldn't do anything. They can't go to war, their will is not as firm as they say, and even most of them are duplicitous, talking about the country and the nation, put down the keyboard and go to Japan to lick people's toilet seats, if the war starts, it is possible that the first one will be a traitor. Historical experience has long proved that only 'anger' is useless, with 'anger' as the driving force, really work hard, strengthen yourself, and then strengthen the country, this is what a young person should do, otherwise he can only become a keyboard warrior, and keyboard warriors cannot save the world.
Ah Jiu gently grabbed Krystal's shoulder, kissed her on the cheek, and asked, "Why do you suddenly care about this thing?"
"I want to know what your hometown is like...... Krystal rewinds the video a little back: "This is the introduction of the 'Shaolin Temple', do you live here?"
Seeing the plaque of Shaolin Temple, Ah Jiu pouted reflexively, as a member of the Oolong Temple, who can afford Shaolin Temple: "How to say this, the mountain is a mountain, but the temple is not a temple." Is Shaolin Temple Kung Fu...... That's it, in fact, you can't blame Master Zu, how can the disciple rely on the master if he is not good. The kung fu of our Oolong Courtyard is practiced from the outside, from the outside to the inside, and then from the inside to the outside. Shaolin's kung fu is the opposite of ours, and their real advanced kung fu starts with internal strength. So when they were young, they couldn't beat us who practiced external skills, and when they became successful in their internal skills and began to practice external skills, our internal skills also rose, and they still couldn't beat us. By the time they are almost finished, they are all seventy or eighty years old, and they can't fight anymore, and they still can't beat us...... But if they can live to be 100 years old, they can almost be better than us if they practice well...... But this generation was in vain and did not exceed our hopes. ”
Krystal looked at Ah Jiu, and saw that his face was full of expressions, and couldn't help asking: "Shaolin Temple is very famous, I have heard of it, what is Oolong Temple, I have never heard of it, why are you so confident." ”
"Because of me," Ah Jiu said unashamedly: "If I can live to be 100 years old, I will definitely dominate the martial arts, but ...... I probably won't live to be a hundred years old. ”
"Why?"
"Because of you," Ah Jiu looked at Krystal and said, "I have practiced martial arts, there is no problem in living to be a hundred years old, you have not practiced martial arts, and it is too late to practice now, it is estimated that you will not live to be a hundred years old, if you die, I will definitely follow you, they still have a chance." ”
"Nonsense, who wants you to die with you. Krystal gave Ah Jiu a blank look, put the iPad down, reached out to turn off the lamp, and snuggled into his arms.
"If I die, no one cares about you, you don't know how happy you are. ”
Ah Jiu gently stroked Krystal's hair and said, "You are wrong about this, you will definitely not be happy." ”
Krystal was a little surprised, looked up at him, and said, "Why?"
"It's interesting to have a wife to take care of this kind of thing, if you don't have a wife...... How can being single be called getting into flowers, that's called free love. ”
"Oh?" Krystal suddenly dragged out his voice, and his little hand slowly moved towards Ah Jiu's waist, "So, do you admit that you are messing with flowers and grass again?"
"Uh......" Ah Jiu knew that he was speechless, gave up struggling and justifying, looked at Krystal with his eyes, and said, "Wife, can you pinch lightly?"
"Can't!" Krystal snorted, pinched Ah Jiu's waist, and twisted it hard.
Ah Jiu snorted in pain, annoyed and angry, turned over and pressed Krystal under him, his waist stiffened, and Krystal also snorted.
The bed creaked for a long time...... Long......
