Chapter 15: Dreams

"Lift up a little more, and go a little more to the left!"

This is a morning in the summer said that in June, the green peaks of the green peaks, the clear clouds and green velvet, the heavy and verdant peaks of the snake mountain reflect the glow of the east sky, the brilliant clouds are reflected on the sparkling water surface of the river estuary, the high-rise buildings on both sides of the river are stacked, the river wheels are compared, the blue shadow of the river is across the sky, a bridge is flying, the cool air is filled with the fragrance of flowers and plants, as far as the eye can see, the empty water is clear and fresh, and the river is like a wonderful picture with particularly bright colors and particularly clear composition.

In the past half a month, Du Ruo has been working in the city in a decent manner, and the work of the Literary Association is also easy, looking at documents, changing drafts, writing materials, and then a cup of tea, a cigarette, and a newspaper, and leisurely for a long time. However, I was tired, and I felt good in the first few days, and I had a great sense of accomplishment in Jiugao and in the sky. The old fellows who have not seen each other for many years have come to the door looking for their names and surnames, the old colleagues who have never been in contact with each other have come to visit their relatives and friends, and the old classmates who have gone to the sea like mud cows have also visited the old places as guests. In fact, if you don't enter the city, you don't know the hardships in the city, and if you don't sit in the organs, you don't know the hierarchy of the organs. Cheng Tian smiled on his face, good words were held in his throat, he smiled at people, and opened his mouth with seven sweetness, but an invisible wall still stood between him and his colleagues, a shadowless mountain was still between him and the leader, and the moment of inferiority, self-discouragement, and self-shame was like a heavy millstone pressing on him. Just clamp your tail and work hard for the years, just grit your teeth and work hard, who called his ancestors who didn't wear official uniforms, there are no big trees to enjoy the shade, peers don't have abacus to play, there is no fertile soil to nourish, and he was a rustic hillbilly in the first half of his life. However, he fought at night, searched all the dry intestines, and threw the materials he wrote on the table without looking at them, saying that he was not serious about doing things, perfunctory, and getting by, and being a monk for a day and hitting the clock for a day; He said tremblingly, people were tired and sweating, and the report he spelled out, the leader didn't listen to it and casually said haha, but said that he was irresponsible, didn't say it in person, talked nonsense behind his back, didn't say it at the meeting, and said it nonsense after the meeting, only let it go freely in his mind; The leader turned a blind eye and criticized him for being arrogant and arrogant, and sat in the back row of the meeting; Usually respectful, only chattering, with fart and stomach pain, the leader listens to it, but accuses him of not working with the leader with one heart and one mind, and he is good to be in the limelight; I finally seized an opportunity to accompany a guest, eat at the same table with the leader, dare not say a word, dare not drink more wine, dare not eat a little more food, the leader is still commanding, take it for granted, he is noisy, does not know self-love, and a little bit of board eyes are all on the mouth. A colleague in the office can't get together in one place. The old man can't stammer, people don't talk to him, they don't do anything with him, let his teacher shout as sweet as honey, bend his waist like it, he is still a little unsatisfactory and cold-faced, and he doesn't talk speculatively and walks away; Middle-aged friends can't make friends, people's mouths are like big people elongated the tone, and when he moves his legs, it is like an official eunuch refusing people thousands of miles away, he rushes to open the door for others, and people don't bother to glance at him, he rushes to talk to others, and people snort ignoringly for a long time. When the female colleague saw him take a detour, it was like seeing stinky dog poop and she couldn't avoid it; When the little colleague saw him walking with his face up, he also ignored him as if he had seen a scarecrow. And the most laughable thing is that on that business trip to Henan, he bought dozens of catties of Henan specialty spiced peanuts on a whim. When he carried it to the office in a hurry, he sincerely said that everyone would divide it, but everyone said in unison that they couldn't bear it, and they shook their heads and refused without raising their buttocks. So much so that later when I went to work, I sat in the office like a bronze statue, and walked on the road after work. A little bit of the glory of working in the city is gone, and a little joy of success is gone. If it is not my country, its heart will be different; People are not harmonious, and their words are terrible. Could it be that he recruited into the agency as a talent, posed a threat to the leader's position, and challenged the leader's authority, so he picked a bone in the egg and gave him small shoes to wear all the time; Could it be that he, as a promising young man, is in the way of someone's official road and whose financial resources he has dug up, so that he is trampled under the feet of a turtle like this, and he is afraid that he will not be able to grow gossip lines on his backbone. Take a step back and open the sky, let the three points spend the full moon, and be called around in the office building with such a jealous face, and the people are unharmoniously at the bottom of the society to live and steal peace, a little ambition is slowly eroded in the documents and reports year after year, and a blood is consumed cleanly in the sea of Wenshan and Hui. It is better to stick to the nobility in the depths of the heart, protect the dignity of human beings, make up your mind to return to the mountains, raise your favorite hope again in the picturesque mountains and rivers, and run towards his most brilliant dream in the humanistic environment of the mountains.

Du Ruo remembered that it was a night when the clouds were light and the river was thin, and the raindrops were sparse, and he went to the Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles with Ren Yan for the first time to visit a well-known old painter in China. Along the way, Ren Yanxu nagged him to pay attention to this and that, to be humble and studious, and to listen and not speak like a primary school student. Walking to the dormitory of the Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles on the edge of East Lake, Ren Yan was endlessly worried about this and that, worried that Du Ruo was a countryman, and people would not want to teach him at all, worried that he was a small citizen, and he would not be able to do anything if he was not thoughtful. When he finally climbed up to the seventh floor with his teeth twisted his mouth, Ren Yan took great pains to describe him, and Zuo complained that he didn't listen to her and didn't get a haircut when he came, and he was reluctant to buy even a decent suit; The right blames the personal image and does not pay attention to the shirt that is too old to be old and the tie is stammered. It wasn't until Du Ruo patiently cleaned up and looked at her face with a smile that Ren Yan rang the doorbell with great difficulty.

"Oh, Brother Du, it's really you, the golden-winged bird flew out of the ravine!" When the door opened, an old man in casual clothes with bald white sideburns widened with a smile.

"Ouch, isn't this Lao Litou, you're not a cultural relics dealer, when did you become a famous painter?" Du Ruo looked surprised, strode into the house, the worries along the way came to naught, and the person was also freed from the state of self-discouragement and timidity, and put the gift by the door.

"Come, come in, classmate Ren, Brother Du is my friend in Xiangbei Farm, sleep in a bunk, carry a basket of stones, hit a drill hole, survive most of the year, I really owe him, otherwise my old bones would have been lost in that mountain long ago!" Lao Li Tou welcomed Ren Yan into the house warmly and thoughtfully, and happily sat on the sofa with Du Ruo, who was looking around the room, "The dog can't change the surname of eating, or this hanger's virtue, tell me, how did you get over the past two years, did your daughter-in-law get married, and your son looks good, why don't you come to the city to see me!" ”

"Alas, what daughter-in-law, just as you said: husband and wife are birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes. I married someone else a long time ago, and my son doesn't know if he has my surname or not, but I'm afraid that I will learn from you in this life, be a bachelor for a lifetime, and be a widower for a lifetime! Du Ruo pursed his lips wildly and uninhibitedly, took the cold coffee handed over by Lao Li Tou with a big grin, and drank it all with his neck up.

"What's wrong with beating a single, I'm not just single for the rest of my life, and I've read all the books to the cow's asshole, and I haven't understood it after walking around Xiangbei Farm. Those who eat orange grapefruit are sweet when they eat it, and fragrant when they smell it; Those with thorns in the trees are few and thorny, and they are stinging when they are full. Moreover, women are like garments, the old does not go, and the new does not come. I heard that classmate Ren is also single, you still have a story of wind and snow in the past, the surname Suo is good and the two are good, forget it under one roof, and you can save yourself from going to the mountains to ask for a cup of happy wine in the future! Lao Li smiled playfully, not looking at Du Ruo's increasingly embarrassed face, while picking up the coffee pot and pouring a cup full.

"Teacher Li, look at what you said, how can I have this blessing, I can climb this family, he is a pig's head, he can't understand the world, he is just a dog's brain, he can't know human feelings. It's rare for you to be so familiar, so I won't bother to speak, and I hope you will give him more advice, and ask him to be an elm pimple that does not sprout, knowing that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky, chewing the buns that others have chewed, and walking the road that others have walked, it is bound to have no vitality! Ren Yan blushed slightly, sat down on the other end of the sofa in a proper manner, and stared at Lao Litou's face with two eyes full of enthusiasm.

"Where to say, it's too out-of-the-box! Not to mention that you still call me a teacher, just with my friendship with Brother Du, I should also look at the soil without looking at the face of the people, and show you the way and pass on the scriptures! Lao Li Tou put away the smile on his face, and solemnly pointed to the room full of magnificent decorations and cabinets full of antique calligraphy and paintings, and stared at Du Ruo with smug eyes, "Look at the greedy look that your kid just entered the door, at first glance, he is a commodity who has not been in the elegant hall, and he is still struggling for a living, and there is not a desk in the burrow?" Classmate Ren may also have a family's wealth in the clothes she wears. You kid is an embroidered pillow straw heart, guarding Baoshan begging for food, I told you two years ago, after I was released from prison, the city came to me, helped me copy a few paintings, and earned some money to make a good living in the city. You kid treat my kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, and my words as the east wind shoots a horse's ear. A few days ago, classmate Ren sent your paintings, I look at them so familiarly, take a closer look, it's really your paintings, otherwise I have time to receive literary and artistic young people like you? Isn't it full of food! I'm here to be grateful, thank you for taking care of me at that time! But your kid hasn't made much progress in painting in the past two years, full of paper nerds, isn't he not much interested in painting, doing physical work, look at this five big and three thick all over his body, and his fingers are stretched out and he doesn't look like a literati! It's still that comment, the foundation is solid, the creativity is insufficient, and if you want to draw a famous name, there is still a long way to go. How about it, go with me and cooperate well, don't let the cultural relics dealers say so ugly, money is not reluctant, no money is really despised! If you are willing, I have two ancient paintings now, take them back and have a good look, and when you come out, I will give you Wu Shi 10,000 yuan, so that you can enjoy life well, be a master, and not let your classmates work hard for you! ”

"What kind of painting is so valuable, the paintings of Li Keran, the eight masters of the contemporary art world, are not so valuable! We have also sold paintings before, and it is a few thousand yuan, this is a good thing, the teacher is willing to introduce it to us, and I thank Du Ruo on my behalf! Ren Yan's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly stood up, and the words that came out of her mouth were full of joy for a moment.

"You don't count, if you want this kid to nod, I know he's a bull, and he has a lot of rules and regulations in his head! Ziyun Shi said that the big truth is a basket, and maybe I will say that I am harming him later, I am not happy that the good guy didn't do it, but the wicked man became the first one! Lao Li waved his hand, stopping Ren Yan's gesture and about to say something, but his eyes were staring at Du Ruo like torches.

"You're the drowned ghost in the City God Temple, and you can't forget to drag me into the water! Okay, listen to you, I'll help you copy a few ancient paintings, you know I need money now, my stubborn woman is still suffering in the mountains, and my son can't keep it up and call others dad! With the money, I will go back to the mountains to help them reopen the Shu embroidery shop and pawn the house back! Teacher Ren also needs money, so he mortgaged his house to help people pay off his debts, and he still lives in a railway shantytown! In order for them to have a good life, I am willing to go to prison again, and the whole purpose of my life is to make them happy! Besides, if you just dig into the cracks and resell it, it is estimated that it will be difficult to get the "Tasting Certificate" of the appraisal expert, and you will not be able to break the law! Du Ruo stood up, put the coffee cup that he had drunk for a long time on the coffee table, and followed Lao Li Tou towards the study.

"Come and see, these are two Tang Yin's "East Fence Chrysanthemum Picture" and "Luoxia Lonely Bird Picture" Lao Li Tou humbly took out two ancient paintings wrapped in silk from the bookcase, and slowly spread them out on the desk, "Tang Yin is commonly known as Tang Bohu, self-named Liuru layman, the master of the Peach Blossom Nunnery, the famous poetry and painting of the Ming Dynasty, the painter, the poem and Zhu Yunming, Wen Zhengming, Xu Zhenqing and called the four great talents of Jiangnan, and the name of the painting and Shen Zhou, Wen Zhengming, Qiu Ying and called the four families of Wumen. His people are cynical and romantic, which is from his "Song of the Peach Blossom Temple": Peach Blossom Nunnery in the Peach Blossom Dock, Peach Blossom Fairy under the Peach Blossom Nunnery. The peach blossom fairy planted peach trees and picked peach blossoms for wine money. Visible in general. His paintings are beyond the vulgar and elegant, which is also confirmed from his two "East Fence Chrysanthemum Pictures" and "Luoxia Lonely Crane Picture", which is really a surname of the spirit of the language, with a calm pen to reach, Si is the supreme product. And the last poem he left on his deathbed: Born in the sun, there is an end, and what does it matter if you die and return to the underworld. The yang and the earth are similar, only when they drift in a foreign land. It also made him sparse and open-minded, and his surname was known as Chixian County and Shenzhou. For hundreds of years, exquisite and not grinding, Luoyang paper is expensive, literati are flocking to it, and the people who hide it are the best collection of rich people and idlers in all dynasties. Go back and figure it out, experience his brushwork and freehand with your heart, and copy it out as soon as possible, which will be of great benefit to the improvement of your painting skills. Lao Li Tou gently rolled up the painting, carefully placed it in the brocade box, and tied it with a long satchel, and then handed it to Du Ruo with a solemn expression.

"Ouch, Lao Li Tou, I can't imagine that you are stinky with copper coins, full of business experience, and there is such knowledge in your stomach, it seems that calling you Lao Li Tou is disrespectful, you have to call Li Lao or Professor Li, call you a cultural relics dealer, and you don't know Mount Tai. It seems that there is really a providence in the dark, and the fortune teller said that I will hand over the red luck this year, and I will get the help of nobles, so it should be on your old man. I also hope that you don't remember the villain, and look at the past, really pull the brothers! Du Ruo took the satchel with both hands, looked at the old Li Tou, who seemed very knowledgeable and versatile at the moment, and the words of sincere admiration sounded in his heart.

"You kid, don't talk nonsense, I have a condition to help you, we are still poor and meet misers, and no one will touch anyone's light. In the final analysis, you are a kid and a child to teach, the book is not in vain, the work is not in vain, the foundation is solid, and the brain is bright, otherwise this pie-in-the-sky good thing will not find you. Copy these two paintings as soon as possible, the benefits that should be given to you, not a penny will be less for you, otherwise you will not be able to talk about everything! Lao Li interrupted Du Ruo's words with a pleasant face, turned around and took out a few books from the bookcase and stuffed them into Du Ruo's hands, "Take it back and take a good look, this is the "Compilation of Masterpieces on Painting in the Past Dynasties" that cannot be bought on the market, you must remember that the water of rivers is not the water of one source; The fur of a thousand yi, not the white of a fox. It is necessary to learn more, to learn more, to learn from everything, to learn from everything, to melt the ancient and modern in one furnace, to run through China and foreign countries in one, on the basis of both criticism and inheritance, to create, to carry out discarding. Since ancient times, the only way to inherit, develop, and expand is to take the law from the top, and only get it; Take the law in the middle, only get the following. You kid have to comprehend with your heart, be diligent in practice, don't spoil these books! ”

"Mr. Li, thank you! This is really the awakening soup that the stars drink, and the medicine that the moon eats, but there is still a question to ask you, you said that he has been painting for so many years, and the paintings he painted have also won awards on and off the road, why is he still a little-known little painter, and the paintings he painted have been obliterated for a long time? Ren Yan took the satchel, inadvertently looked at the painting on the desk that was sent to Du Ruo a few days ago, was thrown aside inconspicuously, and asked with a raised face without touching it.

"What's this, the time has not yet arrived, not everyone can be young, it is impossible to suck up the water of the Xijiang River in one mouth, and the road to success is not achieved overnight, everything is expensive in persistence, persistence, do not give up easily, dreams and reality are one step closer, and at the same time, we must pay attention to the time, place, and people. There is an existing example in the history of modern art to tell you, Qi Baishi has never met most of his life, the loess is about to be buried in the neck, forced by life, at the age of 55, he also entered Beijing for the second time to sell paintings, at that time his family was poor, the situation was difficult, it is good to say that he borrowed to live in the suburbs of Beijing Fayuan Temple, often with baked white potatoes to satisfy hunger. At that time, he also boasted that he had learned from China and the West, through the present and the ancient, and had won the essence of Chinese painting, but his paintings wanted to enter the most famous Rong Bao Zhai in the capital at that time to sell them, so he had to beg to sell his paintings in the south paper shop of Liulichang, although the paintings were half cheaper than the works of similar painters, but still few people cared about them, and few customers visited. It wasn't until one day that the great painter Chen Shi happened to see Qi Baishi's paintings in Liulichang, and he came to work from time to time, and he got rid of the sea of misfortune, and he lived a dignified life like a person. Since then, Chen Shi has done his best to help each other, and even sent the paintings of his mentor Wu Changshuo to Qi Baishi to figure out, Qi Baishi also lived up to his kindness, through the integration, and forgot to sleep and eat on the composition, artistic conception, brushwork, and ink use of each of Wu Changshuo's paintings, carefully studied, and repeatedly copied, and finally swept away the old style that had plagued him for a long time, got rid of the shackles of similarity, created a 'transcendent interest', and tasted the supreme law of 'painting is between the similar and the dissimilar'. During the period, I couldn't help but write a poem: Qingteng Snow is far away, and Wu Lao is talented in his old age. I want Jiuquan to be a lackey, and the three families will come under the wheel. Qi Baishi's speed of change and progress made Chen Shizeng excited, and after seeing Qi Baishi's poems, he couldn't sleep at night, and waved his pen to give a poem: One is not as good as three autumns, and the three gods and dogs are self-rewarding, and I want to take advantage of it to ride the wind and be ashamed of my Chinese snow. Soon, Chen Shi brought Qi Baishi's paintings to the exhibition, which caused a huge sensation, and some of his works were selected for the Paris Art Exhibition, so that Qi Baishi's value rose sharply, and his reputation was greatly enhanced, and he grew from a folk painter to a famous painter. ”

"So, he still hasn't come to the time, although he has shown his face and become famous in the art world, he is still far from a famous name in the real sense?" Ren Yan sighed gloomily, and a wisp of confusion took the opportunity to drill into her mind, as if the ideological consciousness that had supported her actions for several months was confused, and the psychological foundation that maintained her belief began to collapse, and a trace of disappointment appeared on her face inadvertently.

"Isn't this Confucius's door to sell articles, and he can't do it himself! He can't even pick up other people's heels, I'm still groping in the dark, and I've just finished the first step of the long march! At best, he is still in the pathfinding stage, and it is not known how long the red flag will last! In fact, a famous person in the true sense must first have lofty aspirations, and must cherish the lofty ideal of 'establishing a heart for heaven and earth, establishing a life for the people, continuing to learn for the saints, and opening peace for all generations', and implement this lofty ideal into doing things and being a man. It is necessary to have the great wisdom and great character of 'self-cultivation, governing the country, and leveling the world', and truly do it worthy of the sky, worthy of others, worthy of the heart, not pessimistic in the face of difficulties, unwavering in the face of temptation, and not lost in the complex environment. Seeing the vividness of the rhyme, in the calm of the law, seeing the gods outside the rules, even within the reach of their talents, the curiosity without losing its truth, and the flashy but not falling into the truth, so that the end of the later school into the energy sect of the style, worship of the double value, with irreplaceable aesthetics and historiography. Wang Guowei, a master of Chinese culture, once used Song words in his "Words of the World" to describe the three realms of ancient and modern great careers and university scholars, and the three realms of life and education: the first realm 'Last night, the west wind withered the green trees, went up to the tall building alone, and looked at the end of the world. It symbolizes the doubts, hesitations and pain when beginners are just getting started, facing the vast sea of learning and having no way to learn; The second realm, 'the belt gradually widens, and he will not regret it, and he will make people haggard for Yi. It symbolizes the diligence, perseverance and tenacity of scholars who take diligence as the path when climbing the book mountain and work hard when they are boating to learn the sea; The third realm' looked for him thousands of times, and suddenly looked back, but the person was there, and the lights were dim. It symbolizes the joy, joy and joy of a scholar who has experienced countless failures and failures, and who has perfected his studies and achieved them naturally, and who is able to realize the true meaning of what he has learned. To put it bluntly, this is still a question of tireless practice and never tired of learning, and the so-called tireless practice is to have the spirit of Hemingway's "I will accompany you to death" in "The Old Man and the Sea". Ambition is there, the spirit is also there, in the mountains of books and the sea of learning to climb and swim for most of the life, this is not enough, as much as the letter is better than no book, but also in social practice to increase the true knowledge and talent, but also to go deep into life, deep into nature, sitting in the ivory tower can not produce a painter, sitting in the room can not paint excellent works. A Lushan, for thousands of years, the singers are continuous, and the singers are endless. Su Shi said in "The West Forest Wall": Looking at it horizontally, it is a peak on the side of the ridge, and the height is different from far and near. I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain. This is the reflection of the thoughts and feelings touched by ordinary real life in the author's mind, so that the author can see a fascinating side from the usual ordinary things. Why? Different aesthetic angles will bring different aesthetic objects, different personal emotions of aesthetes, and different environmental characteristics of aesthetic objects. This is the important surname of deep life, nature is not only the storehouse of human clothing, but also the primitive art museum of human beings. The image of nature has the ability to move people's hearts, has a rich connotation of infecting people, and is related to all social existences. Guo Xi clearly explained in "Landscape Training": "The clouds of mountains and rivers are different from each other: spring is harmonious, summer is lush, autumn is thin, and winter is bleak. …… The smoke of mountains and rivers is different at four times: the spring mountains are light and smiling, the summer mountains are green and dripping, the autumn mountains are clear and clean like makeup, and the winter mountains are surging and sleeping. …… The mountain looks like this up close, it looks like it looks like it from a few miles away, it looks like it looks like The front of the mountain is like this, the side is like this, and the back is like this, and the so-called mountain shape is also like this. This is the shape of a mountain and dozens of hundreds of mountains, do you know? The mountains look like this in spring and summer, and the autumn and winter look like this, and the so-called scenery of the four seasons is different. The mountains look like this, the twilight looks like this, and the clouds and sunshine look like this, and the so-called difference between the morning and twilight metamorphosis is also. This is the attitude of one mountain and dozens of hundreds of mountains, can it be investigated? The smoke and clouds of the spring mountain are continuous, the summer mountain Jiamu breeds the people Tantan, the autumn mountains are bright and clean, and the winter mountains are dark and gloomy. ......' In "The Elegance of the Forest and Springs", Guo Xi said: "The mountain has three distances, and it is said to be high and lofty from the bottom of the mountain to its peak." From the front of the mountain to the back of the mountain, it is said to be far-reaching. Looking at the distant mountains from the near mountains, it is said to be flat and far. The color of the high and far is clear, the color of the far-reaching is obscure, and the color of the flat and far is bright and dark. The lofty momentum is abrupt, the far-reaching meaning overlaps, and the flat and distant meaning melts. If the painter could not go deep into life, if he could not capture the image of nature for a moment, and capture the slightest changes in every movement, would he still be able to paint a picture with beauty and beauty? Tolstoy wrote in "On Art" that a student of painting in old Russia said: 'If you change a little, you will change everything', and the painter Priolov replied: 'Art begins at this point!' Isn't this also in line with Guo Xi's 'distance theory', 'multi-faceted theory' and 'natural beauty theory'! Nature creates man, man-made nature, man carves a small world for himself from the vast world, and this small world is plastered with your own image. The more in-depth and extensive your understanding of nature is, the more you will be able to exaggerate and choose art, the more you will be able to reveal the 'interest' of natural images in many aspects, the more you will be able to create a place to express its relationship with social life, and the more you will be able to create a 'second nature' of artistic transformation. This is what Guo Xi said: 'If you want to take away its creation, you should not be good, you should be diligent, and you should be more than full of food, and your experience will be listed in your chest. 'Let's think about it, boy, don't get a little bit of success and get scared, retreat when you encounter a little setback, you are still young, the road ahead is still long, don't sit in the office in the city at a young age, where to come and go, pack up the backpack, put on straw sandals, go to the Daba Mountain thousand-mile railway line to sketch, Bashan Chushui has always been a literati and ink writer, maybe a few years later, you will also draw a brilliant picture of Bashan Chushui, not the same in the history of the name, on the bamboo silk ink ? ”

"Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years. I am really a bird in the mountains, closed eyes and ears, a frog at the bottom of the well, lonely and unheard. To borrow an ancient saying, I want to express my heart: the clouds and mountains are green, the rivers are turbulent, the wind of the gentleman, the mountains are high and the waters are long. Thank you, come back in a few days! Du Ruo thanked Lao Li for his resignation, pulled up Ren Yan, who had been sighing for a while, and walked out of the door with a push.

Du Ruo stood on the street of Yiyuan Road in Hankou, and saw that the eaves were printed with the bronzing signboard of the Bashu Painting and Calligraphy Society, and hung on the lintel upright. After repeated bargaining, Ren Yan finally bought the house he sold back, and today is the reopening of the Calligraphy and Painting Society. Looking at Ren Yan wearing flowers and butterflies busy among the people, watching Ren Yan's parents go upstairs and downstairs like old birds. Du Ruo only felt a wisp of joy that had done his best to jump up his eyebrows, and a sense of relief of repaying his kindness and affection poured into his heart, no matter how hard and tired he was, he couldn't drag down his beloved relatives and friends who cared for him, and no matter how dangerous and difficult it was, he had to make the people who cared for him live a good life. Otherwise, no matter how promising he is, he is just a self-righteous clay-footed giant, no matter how glorious he is, he is just a self-righteous silver pewter spearhead, he wants to open up a new world of civilization and development in the environment around him that is poor and discriminated against, and he wants to create a new life of wealth and honor in a life that is often insulted and damaged!

Du Ruo remembered that it was a morning when the lotus fragrance was sent far away and the lotus rain was clear. The breeze in Jiangcheng was blowing, the white mist was thick, and the dawn gilded a golden edge on the dark velvety clouds in the eastern sky. Du Ruo came to Ren Yan's house in the railway shantytown early, and it was Sunday, a gathering of relatives and friends, and a day for the children who had started a family to go home to reunite with their parents. Du Ruo just pushed open the door of the house, and there was a cry of Xiao Ruoxu, it turned out that the kindergarten had assigned homework, and asked the children to read and write at home according to the picture, and wrote two pages of grandfather, grandmother, grandfather, and grandmother's words, and wrote it silently on Monday school, and wore a big red tweed if it was written well. Xiao Ruoxu got up early and lay on the chair, crookedly finished writing a page of grandfather and grandmother's words, and just wrote grandfather and grandmother on the second page, but Ren Yan squinted at it, and came to a sentence coldly, "Just write grandpa and grandma, your grandfather and grandmother died early, what are you doing with it?" Xiao Ruo put down the pencil with a snap, straightened his chest and leaned up on his little face, and his face suddenly sank like a piece of purple pig liver, "Mom lied, grandpa and grandma live in Hankou, it's my mother who doesn't let them come to see me!" Ren Yan scolded happily and slapped him with his hand, "Little bastard, you can learn to be tough at a young age, and it's almost the same as being dead if you're not dead!" Xiao Ruo was beaten for no reason, tears crackled down, and he pouted his lips in protest, "Mom is a bad guy, I told a lie and beat someone, I won't play with you anymore, I'm angry with you!" ”

"Whoever is upset and pouts his mouth can hang an oil bottle, and early in the morning, he howls high and low, and cries dry tears!" Before Du Ruo's words fell, Xiao Ruoxu ran over with a smoke, and there were two tears on his pink face.

"Dad, Mom lied and beat people, I have grandpa and grandma, they didn't die!" Du Ruo waved his arms to pick up Ruoxu, and stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears on his face for him, "Ruoxu is right, a good child must tell the truth, a mother is not a good child, tell lies, grandpa said it last time, I saw Ruoxu the next day, and I want to tell Ruoxu the story of the black cat sheriff!" ”

"Ah, I said I had a grandfather, and my grandfather liked me, right, Dad?" Ruoxu screamed with joy, stabbed and broke off the ground, picked up a large pile of desserts that Du Ruo bought, and lay on the chair again, eating with eyebrows and eyes, while muttering to himself and writing homework.

"What the hell is this crazy? The brain is gnawed by a pig, and such things are said to children! Du Ruo walked to the kitchen, looked at Ren Yan's busy figure, couldn't help but pick up the mop, moved Ruoxu and the chairs to the door of the house, and dragged the floor all over the house.

"You ask him, today I want grandpa and grandfather, tomorrow I want grandma and grandmother, and if it makes people laugh in their hearts, I will pestle him with a finger, and he will cry and wipe his tears, and he can't shut up if he doesn't win, how did he get this temper when he grows up!" Ren Yan snorted angrily, hurriedly unbuttoned her apron, threw the torn packaging box in the garbage basket, and picked up the mop to drag Du Ruo to the ground.

"It's not that you closed the dark room, the kindergarten children, which is not grandpa, grandma, or grandpa and grandma to pick up and drop off! I look at it and my eyes are hot, or go to your parents' house today to walk around, it's not a matter of not interacting with each other like this, and the face is not good-looking, besides, there are only unfilial children in the world, there are no unvirtuous parents, don't care about the past, now we are not also people with status, status, and a little money, when you go, lower your posture and prepare more gifts, I don't believe it, your parents will not receive you, and you won't hit the smiling person! After Du Ruo finished mopping the ground, Ren Yan took the mop, washed it in the pool, wrung it out, and then picked up the towel and grabbed Du Ruo's body to dodge left and right, and had to wipe off the full amount of sweat for him, "You can accompany me to see my parents, of course I can't ask for it, do you think I don't want to, isn't this forced to do this, who is not raised by his parents, it just so happens that after the house was bought, the calligraphy and painting shop opened, and I also want to ask them to help take care of the store, but I can't get used to the face of my brother and daughter-in-law, which is faster than the monkey's ass, The mouth can tell the dead toad to pee, that temper that God doesn't like and doesn't love is more uncomfortable than killing you, let's say okay first, if you are angry and break your face, don't be angry with me when you turn around! ”

"Where do you say, I'm just such a crisp surname, and I'm not a boiling water bottle, so I'll blow it up when I touch it!" After Du Ruo finished sweating with his surname, Ren Yan picked up the comb again, said that he should pay attention to his image when he went out, and walked to the dresser with his arm, ignoring the uncertain look on his face, and combed his hair stiffly, "Okay, don't be so sluggish, it's okay to find trouble, you go and change your clothes, put on the new clothes you just bought, and put on the platinum jewelry, I haven't been home for a year or two, like a lonely swallow floating outside, and now I have to return to the nest, I have to have a new atmosphere!" ”

"You're crazy, it's not a year's holiday, I still want to press the bottom of the box for a few more days, and wear it when the painting shop opens, and then how many years, I'm used to it, and I'm used to wearing the railway uniform, and I really look awkward and uncomfortable when I wear this bells and whistles!" Du Ruo looked in the mirror, and was fiddled with Ren Yan's hairstyle for a while, and that hairstyle for a while, and there was a bunch of fire in his heart, and he couldn't stand or sit in his heart, and finally suppressed the fire and combed it, Du Ruo hurriedly flashed to the side, shook his head as much as he could, and his face was full of annoyance for a while, "Let me say, you just can't help Adou, you can't see the good intentions of others; The queen who does not go to the Tao cannot listen to the heartfelt words of others. Isn't what people want to live for food, fish, cars, houses, and labor? The ancients also said: Wealth does not return to the hometown, such as a night trip in brocade. A few years ago, you suffered with me, you didn't eat it, you didn't wear it, you didn't play it, you didn't take advantage of the fact that you made some money now, you didn't take advantage of the warmth of your purse to paste gold on your face, and you still picked and searched like this, and you had to press the bottom of the box when you bought one or two clothes, you really can't say it! ”

"Okay, it's up to you, follow your feelings, be a foil, live a lady's addiction, anyway, even if I make steel, I can't resist you! If you are older, it is the husband who sings and the wife who repay you; To put it mildly, it is repentance and rehabilitation, and it owes you. I see that you are embarrassed to treat me here as a hotel, come and leave as you want, treat me as a scarecrow, and throw me away if you want to coax me! Ren Yan sat in front of the dresser, took out the platinum jewelry that had been treasured for a long time, stared at the mirror with both eyes, put it on and took it off, took it off and put it on for a long time. When it was over, he rummaged through the cabinets to find clothes for Ruoxu, and it was not good to take out this one, and it was not good to turn it out, and he tossed it for more than half an hour.

"Are you hurrying up, sloppy women toss endlessly, there is no time, and you have to go to the street to buy gifts!" Du Ruo was suddenly resentful, opened the door of the house with a cold face, and spit out the irrepressible reproachful words, "I can't tell the weight at all, I have to prick my ears and eyes when I get on the sedan chair, do you really think that the old man will treat you with seven dishes and eight plates, the water splashed out by the married daughter, and I haven't walked for so many years, I have a good face when I go, and I will burn high incense when I go, don't eat closed-door soup, if you just enter the door and have eaten, how can you fall to the bottom!" Hurry up, I'll wait for you at the mouth of the alley with Ruoxu, I'm annoying, it's so wordy to go out, it's not high, it's not low! ”

By the time the family came to the old house on Hankou Yiyuan Road with a large bag of gifts, it was already late in the morning. Ren Yan's parents, who were picking vegetables in the alley, were surprised and surprised after a moment of misunderstanding, and their old faces bloomed for a while, and their eyes smiled into a line. Ren Yan's mother ran over in three or two steps, with hazy tears in her eyes, and grabbed her body, "Ouch, isn't this my little friend, I haven't seen it for a long time, I've grown so tall, I've been thinking about my heart and liver baby all my dreams!" Ren Yan's father stepped forward quickly, took the gift with both hands, and said excitedly with a choked voice, "Come on, I'm here, I saw so many things outside, Master Du, they are not outsiders, please sit in the house!" ”

Du Ruo stepped into the door, and saw that the area in the alley was not large, but there were two or three families living in it, the low and cramped entrance of the building was dark, and the incandescent bulbs had to be lit in broad daylight, and the kitchen was built at the junction of the corridor, the whole alley was not ventilated, and the room was filled with a very strong smell of oil smoke.

Ren Yan's face turned pale, and a little embarrassed and helpless expression condensed on his face. Ren Yan's parents also changed their demeanor greatly, and they looked at each other like a tiger, and they couldn't help but be stunned. Ren Yan opened her satchel in a hurry, took out a wad of money and stuffed it into her mother's hand, deliberately rushed to the door, and said loudly, "Mom, brother, aren't they at home, I heard someone say a few days ago that they want to buy an electronic piano with their niece, but they don't have the money, so they came to the unit to find me. ”

"Oh, my sister is back, we looked for you a few days ago, I heard that you bought the house on the opposite street again, and you want to continue to open a store, this is really the view of the river from the Yellow Crane Tower, happy and happy!" Before Ren Yan could finish speaking, the closed door on the left opened with a bang, and Ren Yan's younger brother's family walked out. Ren Yan's brother and daughter-in-law smiled even more, for fear of falling behind, she quickened her pace, grabbed Ren Yan's mother in three or five steps, reached out to take the money, and put it in her pocket without blushing, "Sister is really anxious, your niece wants to buy an electronic piano, crying and crying when she sees the sky, your brother worker, the efficiency in the factory is not good, our hospital is contracted out, I was laid off at two ends in three days, where to get these thousands of yuan, I also worried people to death, I quarreled several times for this, and almost even got into a fight, or sister, Listen to the sound and send the money, I really beat your mouth until I convinced you in my heart, if it weren't for a family, who would take care of us so sincerely! Then the dog shook his butt and offered courtesy, squeezed out a few smiles affectionately on his face, and stretched out his hands to Ruoxu, "Ruoxu, is it okay for your aunt to take you to play, go to Zhongshan Park with your sister to see elephants and ride horses?" ”

Who knew that Ruoxu turned his head and hid in his grandmother's arms, hating to hide his whole body in it, and his tone was as decisive as the hail of the cold winter wax moon and smashed people, "No, I won't go, you are a scolding old witch, you scold me for being a wild seed, and scold my mother for stealing people!" Grandma, I'm not a wild seed, my mother didn't steal, my father was kind to me, he bought me a lot of food, and he also bought a variant King Kong, and said that he would send me to a noble school and buy a video game console! ”

The family's complexion changed sharply, and they were in an embarrassing predicament, and a suffocating taste of humiliation filled the room. Ren Yan's father held Ruoxu in his left hand and his granddaughter in his right hand with a desolate face, and walked out of the house quickly with one foot high and one foot low; Ren Yan's mother lifted her apron with a sad face, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes with and without a pair; Ren Yan was stunned there with embarrassment, pinching the corners of her clothes without leaving or staying; Ren Yan's brother-in-law blushed and turned white for a while, and walked timidly in front of Ren Yan with her tiptoes, "Sister, you have a lot of adults, don't worry about being like a little sister." My sister is an old crow's mouth with an abscess, and she can't say a good word; The conscience grows up to the back, and the dog doesn't lick what he does. From now on, you will be my own sister, and the family will live in harmony with you. If my little sister doesn't know what to do like this again, you will slap my mouth and tell me to go to hell after I die, sister, I'm sorry! ”

Ren Yan's eyes were red, and a thousand feelings of pain welled up in her heart, and she couldn't help but sigh bitterly, "Where do you say, you are also a rectum, and you have no intention of saying too much, how can I account for you, for so many years, I haven't gone home, my parents have to be taken care of by you, it's too late for me to thank you, don't say these bad things, the family has a good meal at noon, your brother Du specially asked me to buy two bottles of Wuliang liquid, and I am ready to get drunk with you!" ”

Du Ruo had mixed feelings, her heart was as hot as a pot of soup, and finally her wish to reconcile Ren Yan's family was achieved, so that she no longer had to face the bitter ups and downs of life alone, and no longer had to be helplessly wrapped in the autistic cicada clothes to make a miserable life, and in the future, she could share her joys and sorrows with her family like a normal person, and she could often go home to see in her spare time, so that Ruoxu could grow up happily in a family world, so that she could heal the wounds of her soul in the joy of family. After all, it is not easy for orphans and widows to live in today's materialistic society, and it is even more difficult for orphans and widows who do not get the warmth of family affection to live today.

Du Ruo was full of emotion for a while, sighing about the cold state of the world and sighing about the warmth of human affection accumulated in his throat, and couldn't help but quietly pull Ren Yan's younger brother, who was still bowing his head and making a sound, and walked out of the house.

"Brother Du, I'm sorry, it's all because I'm useless, I can't control my daughter-in-law, and I can say the words of stabbing people in the tip of people's hearts like this!" Brother Ren Yan honestly shrunk his neck, his eyes looked into the distance in a trance, and he gently knocked the ground with the heel of his shoe in great shame.

"I can't say that, our brother is not an outsider, I know that you are loyal, surnamed introverted, usually don't like to talk much, say that you live tightly, smoke a 1 yuan red gold dragon cigarette, drink a 1 yuan 3 jiao 5 cents of small Yellow Crane Tower wine, but also look at the face of your brother and daughter-in-law." Du Ruo stretched his eyebrows, his smiling eyes were full of sincere and sincere affection, and he took out a large pile of money from his pocket, "This is 10,000 yuan, you use it, three friends and four friends pretend to be face, five relatives and six relatives should be rewarded, and then help your sister more, and when our calligraphy and painting club in the mountains is reopened, you can also go to the store to help, after all, a family, who doesn't want to live a better life!" ”

"I can't help it, I can't help it, I know your affairs in my family, if you can take care of my sister so wholeheartedly, our whole family will feel your great virtue, and then I don't know how to use your money like this, where do you tell me to put my face!" Ren Yan's younger brother waved his hands again and again as if he had been stung by a worm, his legs trembled uncontrollably, and his eyes were still shining with a layer of tears of excitement.

"See the outside, money is something outside the body, my flowers are flowers, and your flowers are not flowers!" Du Ruo stuffed the money into his hand with a solemn face, and patted him on the shoulder affectionately, "I want to say that I am most grateful to your sister in my life, and I just want her to live well, to be respected, loved, and respected in today's society, and to enjoy the happiness of life at a relatively high level." Without your sister, I wouldn't be able to walk the road of painting, let alone be transferred to the city, your sister is the goddess of lanterns in my mind, and the guiding light on the road of my life! Although she took a little detour when she was young, in order to go back to the city to ask someone to lead her nose, and in order to live a good life, she was deceived again, but people are not sages, who can be without fault, mistakes can be changed, and good is great! Over the years, she has been miserable and has been alone for a long time, which shows that she is a strong woman with tears and not flicking; When I was in a disaster, she was able to sell her house to pay off her friend's debts, which shows that she is a virtuous woman with affection and righteousness! But although the safflower is good, she also needs the support of green leaves, no matter how strong she is, no matter how virtuous she is, she also needs the care and love of the people around her, so she will not be like a candle burning at both ends, burning her life prematurely! We can't let her be like a duckweed with severed roots, lost at the bottom of society and ignored! People are animals with feelings, and emotions are generated in your interactions. It stands to reason that my path with your sister came to an end when I was in the mountains, but your sister didn't dislike me, and always treated me as a human being when I was not a ghost or a ghost, and I was the first thing I thought of when I had difficulties. In the future, when I returned to the city, I went up and down to the relationship and dig the way, so that I could go to a higher level in art, and I asked for favors and recommendations from inside and outside the province. I am a hard-hearted heart, and I was also melted by your sister's fiery heart, and the poem said: Vote for me with papaya, repay it with Qiongju, repay the bandits, and always think it is good. So whatever I do for your sister is right, it can be taken to the sun to bask in the sun, and the reason why Ruoxu calls my dad is also for him to grow up. Therefore, my relationship with your sister is innocent, and our interaction is heavenly, and we are together for a common ideal. The reason why I want to tell you this is so that you can get to know your sister again, and truly reintegrate her into your life as a family, so that she will no longer live in isolation like a lonely swallow, and no longer fend for herself like a broken candle. I see that your residence is not spacious, a family of three is crammed into such a small room, it is inconvenient to have a guest or a friend, if you want, you can ask the old man to move to your sister's place. First, if you take care of each other, you can help your sister; Second, you can live in bright spots, and your quality of life will also improve a lot. I'm going to the mountains in a few days, and I still have a lot of things to do in the mountains, and I may not be able to return to the city for a while. Think about it, don't be so shrunken and shrunken as a man, raise your head when you should raise your head, and hold your chest up when you should hold your chest up, I want to be reasonable, and you are willing, just do what I say! ”

Late at night, Jiangcheng gradually disappeared in a huge black curtain, the buzzing voices of the street market for a day gradually subsided, the colorful neon on the street that had flashed all night gradually extinguished, only one after another street lamps on the empty street were still shining faintly, and the gusts of night wind swept by with a rustling sound, and the scene of the streets and alleys was bleak and silent.

Du Ruo yawned and sent off the last group of guests, cleaned up the confetti of the ribbons all over the room, and saw Ruoxu curled up on the sofa and fell asleep. Du Ruo lightly picked up the bed he put on the bedroom on the second floor, then picked up the somewhat shabby canvas bag, took the clothes that Ren Yan had washed for him two days ago, went downstairs to open the door, and said softly to Ren Yan I am leaving, come back in a few days, and I will walk out of the house. However, Ren Yan suddenly hugged his waist from behind, pressed his face tightly against his back, and said nothing to let him out of the house.

"Why bother, isn't it okay, take care of your business, and I'll go back to the mountains!" Du Ruo turned around, and hesitantly stroked Ren Yan's shoulders with both hands, but his feet couldn't move as if they were filled with lead, "Today, the store has also opened, and the ceremony has been held, your parents will move in with you in a few days, what else can't be put down!" I haven't been back to the mountain for almost two years, and I'm thinking about my son in my sleep, and I don't know what the little guy looks like. ”

"Don't think I don't know, if you walk out of this door today, maybe when you will be able to come back!" Ren Yan raised her head, the tears that flowed from her eyes instantly soaked most of her cheeks, and her voice was intermittent, as if it took a lot of effort to squeeze it out of her throat.

"How can it be, I'll come back when I go, I'm not honored to return to my hometown, how long can I stay, only such an infatuated woman like you still take me seriously, for fear that I will suffer a loss, who else in this world will remember me? You also know that the roots of our calligraphy and painting shop are in the mountains, and if we can't open in the mountains, we can't open this shop, and a rootless tree can't grow into a towering tree, and how far can a source of water flow out? Besides, they are all people who have suffered for me, and I can live in peace now, but they are not out of the sea of suffering, and if I don't reach out to help them at this time, I can't say it in my conscience! You let go, don't look like this, aren't you usually quite free and easy, when did you become such a mother-in-law! Du Ruo sighed, the dilemma of wanting her support but also fearing her misunderstanding grew, and for a while her heart was like a sharp stone headache, and her tone unconsciously became very gentle and intimate, while reaching out to wipe the tears on her face.

"You are a pretext, you are treating me as a fool to say this, what calculations you have in your heart, what you are reading, I know it clearly, you just don't want to be with me, you think I'm dirty, I think I'm leprosy, I'm afraid that I will tarnish your reputation in the future, so I am so anxious to build a nest for me, and bring my family together, so that I will no longer drag you down in the future, and walk your Yangguan Road without hindrance, so that I can go back to the mountains for a family reunion!" Ren Yan held her head high, her face was as pale as clotted fat in her sorrow, but her eyebrows gradually transformed into a look of half grief and half disdain.

"Look at what this is talking about, isn't this a shot with a shadow, and a stick with a stick without a shadow! I didn't stop working hard for you, but I couldn't hear a good word; I don't even blink an eye to spend money for you, and I can't see a good face for a while. What kind of person am I, you still don't know, guilty of arranging me so indiscriminately, and giving me a trumped-up charge for nothing! Du Ruo was stunned, and suddenly felt a melancholy and irritable mood coming to him, and he couldn't help but have a layer of white frost on his face in the disappointment that could not be eliminated by the misunderstanding.

"Who are you, do you need me to choreograph? I got into the water and didn't want to get my feet wet; I eat fish, but I don't want to get fishy, how can there be such a good thing in the world! Marriage is like a pair of shoes, which will fit after a long time, and the husband and wife living together are the result of mutual accommodation and habits. Why can't I tolerate you in the city, why can't I tie you, you have a honey jar on your mouth, and a hornet needle in your heart, no matter how good I am to you, I owe you, I will take out my heart for you to eat, and I will say fishy. It's a person who knows how to look forward, and Mo can't get out of the shadows of the past. It is a person who thinks about the 'five sons' (tickets, houses, cars, seats, and sons), asks for the 'five blessings' (eating, drinking, playing, fun, and luxury), and plays the 'five flavors' (money, power, potential, pie, and talent). You are good, where to fall, where to die, carrying a monument of shame for a lifetime, you don't go to the bright avenue in the city, you don't want to put the bright future in the city, you don't want to put the bright future in the city, you belong to the horse, run faster than a rabbit, you have to go to the mountains to suffer two stubbles, suffer two stubbles, and spend a lifetime in an environment where ghosts can't stay in the mountains. Are you elm head can't open the mind, or the scale hook heart can't turn, don't think that you are a fox's tail is tightly hidden, and the date in the monkey's mouth is chewed cleanly. But don't forget, people are doing it, and the sky is watching; The body has a shape, and the ground has a shadow. You can't forget the yellow-faced woman with all your heart, and you are counting on her to change her mind, is this moral, this benevolence! Offering other people's wives as Guanyin and breaking up other people's families, is this what people do, is it a manly man! If you make a little money, you have to send it back to her, and if you have a little fun, you have to write a letter to her, do you still have me in your heart, treat me as a person! Rather demolish ten temples than a marriage, isn't it the way of Confucius and Mencius that you often hang in your mouth; I'd rather be burdened by people than by others, isn't it the feudal spit you often say in your mouth, how can you forget it all when it comes to the end! I am thinner than spring ice, my body is cheaper than autumn leaves, and my mouth is bleeding, and you can't listen to it; We are different from the clouds and mud, the turbidity is the same as Jingwei, and the words are all light, but it is also in vain! Ren Yan had tears in her eyes, tears on her face, and she cried with bitterness and humiliation, and her deep tone overflowed in the silent night, and it seemed extremely desolate for a while.

"This is getting farther and farther, a bubble of is all buckled on my head, I can't talk to you anymore, and I can't think of a piece, you always put powder on your own face, smear other people's faces, and use small belly chicken intestines to save people's stomachs. Who are you worthy of speaking like this, how different from a white-eyed wolf, isn't the conscience all lost! Du Ruo's eyes widened with grievance, the look of not being trusted and not being understood for a long time on his face was gone, and his thoughts were as if something cold and incomparably cold had disturbed his mind, and he couldn't help but twist his brows in disgust, and his words fell sharply, "You don't repay your kindness, you hide your heart, and money worship has dirty your thoughts." Red Lotus is kind to you, in such a difficult situation as you, you were kicked out of the house like a beggar, it was Red Lotus who did not remember the old evils, and gave hundreds of thousands of dollars to help you build a house in the city, so that you could have a nest. Little evil Pizun you are a teacher, what have you done before and after the saddle, asking for ways everywhere, looking for relationships to help you do business, now people don't know the north and south, the body doesn't know the east and the west, and the marriage has also been blown, and you are still single, you don't even ask. Then there is your disregard for the facts, the reversal of right and wrong, and the defilement of your soul by individualism. Honglian married someone against her will, and she married someone else to protect my son, you keep saying that she is someone else's wife, yes, I admit that she is someone else's wife in law, but did I say that I wanted to break up her marriage, did I say that I wanted to reunite with her? You're not talking nonsense with your eyes open, shamelessly calling me like you're on the same footing. Then there's the hedonistic remnants of your mind, which you don't know what to do. I received your affection, felt your kindness, bought your house back, the gold house is coquettishly supplied, the household appliances in the house are readily available, magnificently placed, the estrangement between parents and brothers has also been smoothed, you don't even say a word of gratitude, don't give me a good face, who am I, ex-husband? Poor, we haven't even been in love, and only a fool like me can do such a thing. I want to go back to the mountains to see my son, isn't this human nature, you just block it horizontally, your mouth hurts and doesn't forgive people, what hurts people the most, what you say to say, what is the most embarrassing thing to do. I said that I will never abandon you in this life, so that you can live the rest of your life happily, but I always have freedom in life, I can't turn my back on the principles of life, when I am a cow, I have to change a handful of grass to eat, and I have to be a horse for a while! Zi said: People have no faith, and they don't know what they can do. Mencius said: Those who are sincere are also the way of heaven; Those who think sincerely are also the way of people. Behold them suffering in the mountains, and I have the power but do not help them; Watching them live in dire straits, I watched from the other side and stood by! Am I still human, I still have the face to mix in this world, and why don't I become a beast in a human skin? The grace of a meal should be repaid by a daughter; A drop of love should be remembered for life. Without the Red Lotus helping me in every way when I was notorious, I don't know what the scene was in my life; Without the Red Lotus helping me when I was destitute, I don't know if I would be able to stand here today. Besides, what am I doing in the city, looking ahead and backward at work, and taking the blame at every turn; Off-duty people are unfamiliar and unaccompanied. I can't paint anymore, I can't read anymore, and even Lao Li Tou said that my career is in the mountains! What have I worked hard all my life for, not just to paint and be famous; What did I get from suffering from sin for most of my life, not thinking that I would get ahead in the future! You don't have to make up for ghosts, you put on a little daughter-in-law at every turn, today I have to go when I break the sky, I can use the acting in armor and masks, and I haven't fallen to the point where someone cares about a fart! ”

"Dad, don't go! I'm going to sleep with you, and tomorrow the teacher wants you to have a parent-teacher conference! Upstairs, Ruoxu suddenly appeared barefoot at the top of the stairs, crying with his mouth wide open with tears streaming down his face, while rubbing his sleepy eyes in a daze.

Du Ruo was taken aback, seeing that Ruoxu didn't realize that he just cried and wiped his tears, and was about to fall down the stairs after walking half a step. Du Ruo was shocked, and flew upstairs in Ren Yan's panicked screams, picked up the crying Ruoxu, and paced up in the corridor half comforting and half coaxing. Ren Yan also ran upstairs in fright, looking at the tears that seemed to be asleep, and there were still a few tears hanging on his face.

"You go to sleep, I'll send him to kindergarten tomorrow morning, if you wake up early and don't see me, I'm afraid that I'll make trouble again!" Du Ruo's mouth coaxed Ruoxu continuously, and saw that Ren Yan's face was full of frightened expressions, and the scoundrel who had just sprinkled herself like a tigress was gone, and she couldn't help but sigh with pity, and the gentle mood that had been dispersed for a long time returned to her heart.

"What can I do about this, if I grow up day by day, I can't do without you day by day, we don't have a fate, I can't quarrel with each other, I'm really tired, it's not sweet to go to Mizhou, or ask for his surname to explain it to him, it's good to stop his thoughts, otherwise I'll always haunt you, when will it be a head?" Ren Yan stood by the door dejectedly, the whole figure was overwhelmed by the heart-wrenching grievances and devouring melancholy, and a layer of regret gathered between her eyebrows.

"This can't work, he's still young, he can't stand this blow!" Du Ruo gasped, restrained the feelings of chagrin and resentment, and said from the bottom of his heart, "He is still happy, although he was born in a single-parent family and owes his father's love, but his early education is not delayed at all, and the food, use, and play are not bad at all, my son doesn't know where to play in the mud, compared with him, not one in the sky, one in the ground!" ”

"Or I'll go to the mountains with you, beg for the red lotus, explain the benefits and stakes clearly, take my son back, and go to kindergarten in the city, I will definitely take care of you like a mother, and I won't let you have a little bit of a snack or a little hurry, I am a companion in Ruoxu, and I am also dead," Ren Yan was heart-warmed, and the hope of turning around occupied her mind, and the sorrow and despair that had been dormant dissipated one after another, and the emotional rift that had been tormenting her was also bridged, and she couldn't help but look up with enthusiasm, stared at his eyes with a wistful expression, "Although I can see you every day now, I feel that your heart is getting farther and farther away from me, I persuaded you with good intentions, and I was belittled by this doctrine and that doctrine of your head and face, am I a person who doesn't know the world!" I just want you to leave room for things to do, don't force yourself to a dead end, and be counted by the reason you mentioned in your ear, am I a person who doesn't understand human feelings! I'm a woman, I want a man to love me, I want to live at home, and I just can't hold your heart! ”

"Okay, don't say it! It's almost dawn, you take the bed quilt, I will sleep on the sofa with Ruoxu, you also hurry up and sleep, if you have anything to say, wait until I come back from the mountains! Du Ruo turned sideways in annoyance, hugged Ruoxu and lay down on the sofa, and opened his mouth to yawn while sleepy.

"In the mountains, in the mountains, when you come back from the mountains, the daylilies are cold, I persuade you left and right, but I can't persuade you, so to say that I can't move you, you have the ability, don't enter this house when you come back!" Ren Yan angrily slammed over the quilt, closed the door with a bang, and left Du Ruo curled up on the sofa physically and mentally, reflecting the faint twilight on the dark canopy outside the window, and the room showed a fragmented light and shadow, which seemed extremely dark and unbearable for a while.
