Chapter 11: What is Freedom?

Hearing the gunshots, the crowd at the door immediately panicked, and for a while those who ran out and went in and in were crowded and trampled on people, shouting and crying endlessly.

Liao Wanyu stood behind the counter and looked at the crowd in front of her as if she was stupid, and she didn't know how to react for a while, Xie Yuru called her twice, saw her look like this, took off her suit to cover her head and body, and pulled her to the back door of the theater.

He brought a female companion to this place for a long time, and he was much more familiar with Liao Wanyu, who had only been at work for a few days.

Pulling the collar of the suit in her hand, Liao Wanyu stumbled behind Xie Yuru, her wrist was grabbed by Xie Tangru, as if she was afraid that if her strength was light, she would be scattered by the crowd.

The two of them ran to the back door of the basement of the theater without stopping, which looked no different from usual, but Xie Yuru still stopped a moment before pushing the door open.

He asked Liao Wanyu to stand behind, and he looked out from the narrow dirty glass window with his feet, and finally walked out with Liao Wanyu.

The two ran out of the two streets in one go, and Xie Yuru gasped and waved his hand, signaling that he couldn't run.

He let go of Liao Wanyu's hand, took out a gilded and treasured flat cigarette case from his trouser pocket, lit it, and sat on the curb without any image to smoke, and looked back at Liao Wanyu, who was panting in front of him, and suddenly stood up again, "Are you injured?" ”

The Liao family is a businessman, and the most important thing is harmony, not to mention that Liao Wanyu has never seen such a scene today, or has never heard of it. She followed behind Xie Yuru in shock, and finally stopped running for her life at this moment, her mind was still blank, where did she know if she was injured.

Xie Yuru took the coat off her, and turned her around twice, and finally found a soda bottle cap in her hand, presumably it was the one who forgot to throw away the bottle when she opened the bottle for the guest, and then because she pinched it too hard when she ran, the edge of the bottle cap cut her palm and fell to the ground.

The pain brought her back to reality, and Liao Wanyu dropped the bottle cap at her feet and gently blew the wound twice, "Thank you." My clothes are soiled by me, and I will return them to you when I wash them. ”

She didn't look up when she spoke, and her voice sounded muffled, Xie Tang thought that she was scared and cried, and didn't expose her.

"Let's go, let's take a look at it first."

Of course, the theater can't go back, and there is still a younger brother at home who has not healed from his injuries, and she is not willing to go back, Xie Tang didn't ask her if she had a place to go, and he didn't plan to leave her alone, which really made Liao Wanyu breathe a sigh of relief.

beckoning to call a rickshaw, Xie Yuru took care of himself and went up first, Liao Wanyu looked at him leisurely and reported the address with the driver, hesitated for a moment, and sat down next to him.

There are two or three-story Western-style small buildings near Mingxiacuo, and most of them live in courtesans and dancing girls, Xie Yuru bought a small building here, Liao Wanyu felt that the function was self-evident.

Liao Wanyu despised it in her heart, but she couldn't help but fantasize about what kind of woman she was raised by him, how could she think of the place, and when she saw it, there was only a housekeeper and a cook's grandmother and a janitor and a gardener's grandfather living in the building, and the two were an old couple.

When the grandma saw Xie Yuru coming back, she couldn't stop smiling in her eyebrows, and when she saw Liao Wanyu behind him, she suddenly pulled Xie Yuru aside with her eyebrows, and the two muttered for a while, Liao Wanyu didn't know what they were talking about at first, and suddenly saw Grandma hit Xie Yuru's arm lightly, and then her voice was also high.

"It doesn't matter, what's the matter? Is it okay to bring it here? ”

Xie Yuru said "ouch" helplessly, pretending to be going to die of pain, "It's okay to bring it!" Can you bring it back if you have a relationship? Don't entangle me, look at her, turn around and die of excessive blood loss in our house, it really doesn't matter. ”

It will be Grandma's turn to "ouch", she left Xie Yuru and hurriedly walked to Liao Wanyu's side, saw the wound in her palm, said to let her sit, turned around and ran to get the medicine box.

Although she had a bad impression of Xie Yuru, she did receive his favor for today's events, so when Grandma cleaned and bandaged her wounds, she kept thinking about how to say thank you.

"What do you call a girl?" The movements on Grandma's hands were very light, and iodine was applied to Liao Wanyu's hands, which did not hurt much.

Liao Wanyu smiled at her, "Grandma, my surname is Liao." ”

"Miss Liao......" Grandma's hand wrapped in gauze paused, "Are you almost married to the eldest young master's Miss Liao?" ”

Liao Wanyu wanted to say no, but ...... She smiled awkwardly and nodded silently, kind of admitted.

"It's dawning!"

Xie Yuru changed his clothes and went downstairs again, and Liao Wanyu, who was frightened as soon as he made a sound, was startled, and glanced at him angrily.

"You still look at me, if I hadn't met you, how could I be so unlucky, running so far and exhausting me."

Liao Wanyu felt that this person was really strange, she didn't see him afraid of being shot and killed, how could she just run away and complain so much.

"It's right that the eldest brother didn't marry you, I don't think you look like you're a good guy."

At this moment, Grandma had already bandaged Liao Wanyu's hand, and while she was packing up the medicine box, she counted Xie Yuru, "There are no rules, let your father hear you being beaten again." ”

Xie Tang collapsed on the sofa with a hippie smile, and a pair of straight long legs were folded on the coffee table table, swaying and swaying, very leisurely.

He made a flying kiss to Grandma, "Be careful liver, I won't be beaten if you don't tell him!" ”

Liao Wanyu heard him tell Grandma to be careful, the corners of her mouth curled slightly, but she quickly suppressed her smile again, "I said that I will not marry into your Xie family, and neither auspiciousness nor bad luck will harm you." If you want to say unlucky, I think you are unlucky, and there is no good thing when I meet you. ”

She looked at the white cloth strip in her hand, and then looked at Xie Yuru's indecent appearance, stood up and bowed to him, "Thank you today, I'll leave first." ”

"Hey!" Xie Yuru listened to her words and sat up straight and looked at her, he wanted to argue with her, but then when he saw the injury on her hand, he suddenly didn't want to see her in general, "Where are you going?" ”

"My brother is still at home."

Xie Yuru thought she was going back to the theater at first, but she was worried for a while, but she heard her say that she was going home, so she waved her hand, "Let's go, let's go, no one will leave you to eat." ”

###

In the evening, Chen Bingyi held two books in his arms and knocked on the door of Liao Wanyu's house.

"It's just water, okay?"

Chen Bingyi has been to Liao Wanyu's house many times before, and he has everything he needs for soda and snacks, compared with today's living standards, he is afraid that their sisters and brothers will not be able to adapt to it.

"Yes. Abba heard about you, and was afraid that you would be bored, so I asked me to bring you two books, thinking that you would be okay to pass the time. ”

Flipping through two pages, Liao Wanyu found that one of them was the original English reading book. Her English is not the worst in the class, but it is by no means the best, and it is okay to cope with the exam, and she is afraid that it will be difficult to read the original documents.

Liao Wanyu shook her head a little ashamedly, "I don't speak English that well, I'm afraid I don't know many words." ”

Chen Bingyi was waiting for this sentence, he pretended not to care and waved his hand, "Don't be modest, I heard Abba say that your foreign language is the best." Besides, even if it really won't, it's nothing. My Abba said that you can not go to school, but you cannot stop studying. If you don't understand, write it down, and we'll discuss it when we have a chance. ”

Of course, Liao Wanyu also understands that reading is good, if it weren't for the current environment, she would need to worry about everything else every day in addition to reading, writing, playing the piano, and painting.

was told by Chen Bingyi like this, of course, she was a little moved.

"That's too much trouble for you, you have to take classes during the day, and it's too hard to come here at night to teach me."

Joke! This can be something that Chen Bingyi can't wait for, where will he dislike hard work.

"I'm not afraid of hard work, what are you afraid of. George Bernard Shaw once said that the best people in the world are actively looking for the environment they want. If they can't find it, they create one. So don't let yourself go just because circumstances have changed. As long as you are willing to learn, of course I am willing to teach you. ”

Chen Bingyi's tone was passionate when he said the back, and his eyes burst with hope, and he leaned the stool forward, "My husband said that everyone has to go through pain and trouble, and they must always reflect on these pain and troubles, so that they can firmly move forward and keep moving towards their destination." ”

I don't know which gentleman Chen Bingyi is talking about. Liao Wanyu thought in her heart, aren't she and her brother worried enough? If what they are experiencing now is a necessary annoyance, then what is their destination?

Thinking of her younger brother who was finishing eating in the kitchen, Liao Wanyu felt unprecedented confusion.

"Does everyone have a purpose?"

"Destination ......" Chen Bingyi pondered for a while, "It stands to reason that everyone's destination is death, but what life looks like at every step before death is different for everyone." So in my opinion, this difference is the destination of everyone when they are alive. ”

"And what's your destination?" Liao Wanyu asked curiously.

"Me?" Chen Bingyi listened to her question with a solemn expression, and said without thinking: "Freedom! My destination is freedom. ”

"Aren't we free if we haven't been arrested?" Liao Wanyu really couldn't think of what Chen Bingyi meant by freedom.

"Of course not!"

Chen Bingyi was a little excited, and Liao Xi, who was eating in the kitchen with a loud voice, came out to look at him.

"Everyone is not free. Some people are bound by their families, some are bound by themselves. Don't think that we are free now, most people are just numb to the habit of oppression! ”

Liao Wanyu looked at him as if she didn't understand, "Then how do you fight for freedom?" ”

Chen Bingyi suddenly leaned forward, Liao Wanyu reflexively dodged back, and heard him lower his voice and say: "Revolution, only revolution can make us free." ”

The sudden knock on the door startled Chen Bingyi, he stared at the door nervously, Liao Wanyu really didn't understand what he was nervous about, and stood up to open the door.

There are very few people who know this place, who is the one who came to the door at this time?
