On a train to Jiangzhou Province, a young boy who looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old with a big burden was selling yellow paper talismans in his hand all the way.

His name is Tang Brick, the brick of stuffy brick.

"Sixty-six yuan a piece, keep safe, don't miss the opportunity, lose it again!" Tang Brick said, walked up to a few young people, and asked, "Is there anything you want to buy?" ”

"Pretending to be a ghost, what age is it, and you still cheat money in such a dirty way." A young man with glasses said disdainfully.

Tang Brick smiled, didn't sell them any more, and continued to move forward.

One by one, they asked, but no one wanted to buy such an expensive paper talisman. This is a scientific society, and although sixty-six yuan is not a lot of money, not everyone wants to be deceived like this.

When this carriage was almost at the end, a little girl suddenly grabbed Tang Brick: "Big brother, I'll buy one." ”

Tang Brick looked down at the little girl, then squatted down with a smile and asked, "Who asked you to buy it?" ”

"It's Daddy." The little girl replied.

A voice came from the side: "When I was your age, I also thought of a lot of attractive gimmicks, but then I found out that it was unrealistic. You are still young, the road should be slow, walk steadily. ”

Tang Brick turned his head and saw a middle-aged man sitting next to him, with a look on his face.

Obviously, this is out of memories of the past, so I will give a little money.

Tang Brick didn't care, reached out and took out a paper talisman, folded it carefully into the shape of a paper crane, and put it in the palm of the little girl's hand. After thinking about it, he put the gloves around the little girl's neck on them again, and said with a smile: "You have to put them on, otherwise the paper crane will fly away." ”

The little girl nodded, her face was well-behaved and cute.

Tang Brick straightened up and said to the middle-aged man, "She is in the water today, be careful." ”

The middle-aged man sighed, but there was a hint of anger on his face. The truth has been explained to you, why can't you understand it?

Tang Brick saw what he meant, smiled, and then turned around and walked towards the next carriage. As the train moved, he could still be heard peddling paper notes.

Many people in the carriage were dismissive of him, he looked pretty good, why didn't he learn well at a young age? Do you really think someone else is a fool?

And the middle-aged man who "charred" sixty-six yuan has also become the object of ridicule from everyone. There's nowhere to spend money, isn't it? Give it to this liar might as well give it to me.

The middle-aged man doesn't care, his career is quite successful, and he doesn't lack this money. It's just that when I saw Tang Brick's focused sales, I couldn't help but think of the scene of my hard work back then.

On the aisle of the carriage, a young man holding a bucket of noodles walked slowly, for fear that the hot instant noodles would be sprinkled on others. However, no matter how careful you are, there will eventually be places where you don't notice, and you can't help but trip over a package that someone put on the ground.

He sighed, the bucket in his hand immediately tilted, just boiled, at least there was hot water above 90 degrees, mixed with instant noodles and sprinkled directly.

Standing next to him was the little girl who had bought the paper talisman. The instant noodle water was poured on her hand. The middle-aged man's leg was also burned, he jumped up, didn't care about his thighs, hurriedly slapped the girl's hand, and asked anxiously, "How is it?" Did you get burned? ”

"No, I'm wearing gloves." The little girl smiled and raised her hand.

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that this glove was specially put on for his daughter when the young man was selling paper talismans. He also said that he had to wear it well, otherwise the paper crane would fly away.

If you don't wear gloves, such hot water will definitely burn your young hands.

"She's in the water today, be careful." These nine words sounded again in the middle-aged man's heart.

Everyone around was counting down that young man, why was he so careless. Although the young man was unintentional, he also knew that he was wrong, and apologized in a panic. The middle-aged man who was just holding his daughter tightly ignored it, and only subconsciously looked at the next carriage.

Is this a coincidence?

At this time, Tang Brick had already walked through several carriages, and he was almost at the end of the car. However, not a single note was sold.

Just as he was sighing, an old voice came from beside him: "Child, can this paper talisman really keep you safe?" ”

Tang Brick turned his head and saw that it was an old man about seventy or eighty years old. He looked old, his expression was a little haggard, and there was an indelible sadness in the depths of his eyes.

"Yes." Tang Brick nodded: "But I'm afraid it won't have much effect on what you hope." ”

The old man was slightly stunned and asked, "Do you know what effect I want?" ”

Before Tang Brick could speak, the young girl sitting next to the old man frowned: "Grandpa, this look is a lie, how can you still believe this." ”

The old man was silent for a few seconds, and finally took out a hundred-yuan bill from his pocket and handed it over: "Give me one." ”

"Grandpa!" The girl shouted, and when she saw Tang Brick reaching out for the money, she immediately widened her eyes: "I said what's the matter with you, seeing that my grandfather wants to bully him when he is old, do you know who I am?" ”

Tang Brick was stunned and said, "You don't even know who you are, how do I know?" ”

A few people next to him burst out laughing, and the girl turned red with anger: "I'm a policeman, don't force me to arrest you!" ”

She looked to be in her early twenties, dressed in civilian clothes, and had a sharp tone, but she did look a bit like a policeman. It's just that the overly beautiful face, and the body that props up the T-shirt to the point where it is about to explode, really reduces this deterrent effect a little.

Tang Brick didn't care about the identity of the other party, he smiled, took the money, and then handed the paper talisman to the old man, saying: "Things in the world, nine times out of ten, there is not much I can do." When you are older, you should slow down when you leave the station and let the young people get on the bus first. ”

"What are you talking about?" The girl was even more angry, shouldn't the old man get in the car first? Do you understand the rules?

Tang Brick took out the change from his pocket, put it on the coffee table, and then turned around and walked to the back of the car and squatted down. Seeing him carefully sorting out the money in his pocket, the girl was even more unhappy: "Grandpa, I told you that this is a liar, how can you still be fooled!" ”

The old man sighed and said, "Even if you are a liar, you are begging for a living." Be more tolerant of others, and you will be happier. What's more, there is no way out of your grandmother's illness, and I want to seize all hope. ”

Hearing him mention her grandmother, the girl didn't speak again. She already understood that her grandfather didn't understand, but just hoped to get a little luck, even if it was so illusory.

Soon, the train pulled into Jiangzhou Station.

Tang Brick got off the train with a big burden on his back, then took out a map from his pocket, identified the direction a little, and walked towards his destination.

At this time, a middle-aged man held his daughter in his arms, walking all the way, looking around all the way. He wanted to see the young man selling paper talismans again, and wanted to ask him if what had just happened was a coincidence, or if he had really foreseen it.

As the largest railway station in the entire Jiangzhou province, the flow of people here is amazing. Not to mention a young man who doesn't pay much attention to his face, even if he is an acquaintance, it is difficult to find it here.

The middle-aged man sighed, looked at his daughter who was holding the paper crane tightly, and said, "Keep it well, stay away from the water today, you know?" ”

The little girl nodded very obediently and responded: "Hmm! ”

On the other side, the young girl had already helped the old man to the outside of the station.

After waving to stop a taxi, the young girl opened the door and asked the old man to take it in. But the old man somehow shook his head slightly and said, "You go in first." ”

"Grandpa, you really believe him, that's a liar!" The girl said dissatisfiedly, but the old man insisted on this, and she had no choice but to sit in with a pout.

However, as soon as she got up, the taxi suddenly rushed forward, and the girl was caught off guard and hit her head on the anti-theft railing.

She groaned, clutched her head and shouted, "What are you doing!" ”

The taxi driver hurriedly explained: "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, there seems to be a problem with the brakes, and it suddenly failed, so the car went down." ”

"If the brakes don't work, you dare to come out and run a taxi?" The girl's eyes widened: "Believe it or not, I'll arrest you and go back to the police station for the New Year!" ”

The taxi driver was also very innocent, and he would have expected this kind of brake failure emergency, so he had to apologize non-stop, and help call another taxi, and pay the fare in advance.
