Those are all cities that have been eroded by 918 one after another, but fortunately, they are finally barely able to stand up after being weathered again and again. The kind old man drew two large circles on the south side, and some of the people got rich first. And the people of the north did not fall behind, and they also marched forward step by step with similar steps. The high-rise building fell down not long after it was built, and the factory stepped down soon after it became rich, perhaps because the pace of footsteps was too fast, and some people were destined to be out of reach. Just like a giant more than two meters tall can still walk upright, but who can be sure if he will be down in the next second.

The vehicles coming and going on the highway are driving at a fast speed, and no one can care about the speed of dozens of miles to think that there can be such a loess road on the side of the road, and even the sweeping aunt has given up this corner. So much so that Wu Fan has to get up early every morning to clean up the ground in front of the door, although the security door of this broken restaurant is already rusty, but this façade work still needs to be done. Of course, I will also help Aunt Zhou next door clean up, as for whether anyone knows whether the cleaning aunt will be moved, it doesn't matter.

There is an even more inconspicuous small sewing shop next to Wang's restaurant, and it is so inconspicuous that Boss Wang's restaurant still hangs a large plastic cloth signboard of "Wang's Restaurant", but this sewing shop does not even have a signboard. It doesn't hinder anything, firstly, no one comes to check, and secondly, this sewing shop is usually the old folks in front of the street and behind the street can come to cheer up, and it doesn't matter what kind of signboard is hung or not. The person who opened this shop is a forty or fifty-year-old **, and everyone who has lived for a long time only knows her surname Zhou, and as for the name, even Aunt Zhou herself has forgotten. Aunt Zhou's life is not good, her husband has been dead for more than ten years, not to mention, and left a brat with a handle for Aunt Zhou to take alone, I didn't expect this child to grow up and be a worryless goods, I thought that the child would be able to relax when he grew up, but I didn't expect that the guy with his father's surname Xia didn't do his job all day long, and he didn't have any serious work and couldn't see him for three days. There was no way, in order to eat, Aunt Zhou set up another sewing shop in this small place, barely making a living. No matter how small the house is, it is also a home, but Aunt Zhou's cottage does not have a brand, and there is not even a running water pipe, and it is a problem to use water every day. So Aunt Zhou borrowed water from several nearby shops every day, until Wu Fan came to Wang's restaurant, and after knowing Zhou Damiang's difficulties, she took the initiative to take on the job of carrying water for Zhou Damiang.

When Wu Fan walked to the door of the sewing shop with water, Aunt Zhou was still busy with needlework in the house, and only raised her forehead slightly when she heard the sound of two buckets of water hitting the ground.

"Ah, Wu Fan is here, I'm embarrassed to let you run all day long. Sit down and have a drink. Aunt Zhou hurriedly pressed Wu Fan on the chair, and ran over to pour Wu Fan a glass of boiling water.

Wu Fan took the water cup, put it aside and said, "It's okay, auntie, it's just two buckets of water and it doesn't take much effort, not to mention that I can come to you to drink saliva and rest for a while, I should be lazy for a while, you say no." ”

"Isn't it up to you to toss around all day, trouble. Haha, my aunt also liked to be lazy when I was young, and your uncle was still there at that time, so you didn't have to do any hard work to eat. Not now, your uncle is also lazy, go first by yourself, and leave me a mess, otherwise you won't have to run around all day long, Xiao Wu. You can't learn from your uncle who left early, a man flicked his sleeves so irresponsibly and left alone, leaving us orphans and widows, hey. ”

Wu Fan pursed his lips a little embarrassed, he didn't know what to say, so he had to change the topic and said, "Auntie, why don't you find someone to install tap water?" ”

"Why haven't you ever been, I used to look for it all the time, or you said that there was no water all day long, but it was useless to look for it, this side pushed that side, that side pushed again, and no one gave it to it. Later, I knew that they wouldn't care about us little people, and if I went again, I would change a few smiling faces, and no one would be able to do anything. ”

"Yes, we are ordinary people, and we don't expect people to care about us. Auntie, has your son come back these days? ”

"Back, back is back, I just can't stay for a while and then leave. I don't even have a serious job all day long, I know how much I'm worried about being a mother, and I don't know how much I am worried about being a mother, and I haven't disciplined my children well. ”

"Bah, auntie, you didn't say that about yourself, don't say these frustrating words just after the New Year. It's a big deal to talk about him for you when I meet him one day, don't worry, they all say that children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, don't worry about children and grandchildren, since the children have grown up, let them fly by themselves. ”

Although Wu Fan said this, he did not agree with the approach of Aunt Zhou's son Xia Jie. Humanity is: parents are here, don't travel far, there must be a way to travel. But Aunt Zhou didn't listen to what she said for more than 20 years, and she didn't even have a few words and no friendship, so she couldn't even talk about it. It can be seen that if the child does something wrong, it may be their father and mother who will be punished the most. Just like Wu Fan heard some time ago that there was an old lady begging on the street for months, and her unfilial son was lying peacefully on two sofa chairs in the Internet café on the next street, leisurely watching TV programs. The old lady always thought that the child was going out to make a lot of money, and she was afraid that her son would not recognize the road when he came back, so she looked forward to it in front of the street. But I didn't expect that what I was waiting for was just a self-deceptive joke.

Wu Fan only has a salary of 1,000 yuan a month, but Wu Fan doesn't care, since the environment is already like this, maybe adaptation is the only solution. Or if you have greater extravagant hopes, you can only find out that you are not self-conscious after a long time of fantasizing, and all you get is disappointment. Except for the busy food in the store, the rest of the free time is still a lot, so Wu Fan will always spend the remaining meager salary on ordering some newspapers or going to the Shengjing Flower, Bird and Fish Market to pour a few yellowed old books back so that he can read them in his spare time.

Whenever Wu Fan returned to the store with a few dilapidated old books, Lao Guo would say a few words to Wu Fan: "Ah, the talented man has bought books and come back." No, Xiao Wu, you said that you don't take the college entrance examination, what can you read if you buy this and that? ”

What can be read? Wu Fan thought about it carefully, but he didn't come up with a meridian. The ancients studied for fame and fortune, and a certain official and a half-job. Either you want to be prosperous and rich, but a thousand a month is much worse than the so-called return to the hometown, no matter what the reason is, it doesn't seem to be realistic. In fact, Wu Fan didn't know why he wanted to read, at first the master let him read, and then he got used to reading and reading. Wu Fan still remembers watching the only small broken TV in the store a few days ago, and a reporter interviewed all over the street: "What's the best book you've read in the past year?" "It's the best one, maybe many people haven't even read it. In fact, there is no utilitarian interest in reading for Wu Fan, he just thinks that there are many people who read in this world, but there are more people who don't read, maybe there is no shortage of him who doesn't read but still reads.

Of course, Wu Fan still felt that there were many poor people and many rich people in these years. It is estimated that which one has more and which one has less is most likely out of the way. Princes and generals, would you rather have a kind? Who should be so cruel to themselves? At least the so-called salary of 1,000 a month, or more, could not satisfy this young man who had just started to enter society, and he wanted a lot of it, so much that even he didn't know it very well. However, there is still a long way to go, take one step at a time to see how not to fall, dark clouds will inevitably sometimes cover the sun, but as long as we stick to faith, happiness will eventually come to us.

"I can't read anything, but I can't lose myself, otherwise I will be idle in the store like you, and I will soon get moldy."

The boss came over and flipped through the pages: "Tsk, there are all kinds of books." Ay! I like this book, so borrow it for me first. ”

Wu Fan looked up and looked indignant, as if he had been robbed of his little daughter-in-law, it turned out that the boss was holding a book of "**Mei" bound by graphic and text lines.

"Hey! I got that book from an old man at a great price, and I let you take it before I even read it! I'm going to sue the proprietress to go! ”

At this time, the boss turned around and pretended to be a stereotypical appearance of teaching and educating people, and whispered to Wu Fan: "Shhh! Why is the young man so unbreathable, isn't it just a book, I'm here to save it for you, you said that this book is in your case if Xiu'er sees it, how bad it is, isn't it? Besides, your boss is here to read books and learn more advanced knowledge to make up for some of your own shortcomings, you are different, what if a little kid goes crazy! You have to keep in mind my kindness. As he spoke, he stroked his beard like Guan Gong, and the fat man Guo Shoufu on the side couldn't stand it.

Of course, he also ate Wu Fan's eyes a few times, and suddenly patted his head after learning that he was boring: "Look at my memory, your boss asked me to pick up Huzi back, I'll go first, and if I don't go, I'll be late!" After saying that, he took the book in his hand and walked out.

Yes, the book is not visible for the time being, and I have to make a cameo appearance as a tutor for a while in the evening.
