Chapter 155: Baptism

When Zhang Jie entered the house, he heard the reprimand of the old man outside, as well as the crying of the old lady, and the sound of the wooden stick hitting his body was very dull. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info But the more like this, the more gloomy Zhang Jie's heart becomes, and the harder he beats, which proves that the old man has a deeper headache, and he will naturally have to forgive him later.

In this way, even if he leaves, they will still let him in.

Wang in the back room was sitting on the bed with his back to the door, so Zhang Jie couldn't see her expression, walked into the back room, stood in front of Wang, and stood quietly like this. I heard the chickens and dogs jumping in the yard, but I was more and more disappointed in my heart.

"Mother, let's go, let's leave this home, don't worry, mother, I have the ability to take care of you, I will let you live well, even if you leave here, I will let you live a life of fine clothes and food!"

Standing in front of the Wang family, Zhang Jie said softly.

"If you run away from home, people will talk about the backbone of our mother."

Still without much expression, the Wang family, who lowered his head, sighed: "My mother doesn't want to see you embarrassed in this matter!" ”

"Mother, do you know why I work so hard to study?"

Zhang Jie didn't answer, but asked softly, seeing Wang's inquiring gaze towards him, Zhang Jie, who looked calm, said:

"It's not for anything to get admitted to the top prize, and I don't think about anything to glorify my ancestors, I don't have that much understanding as a child. At that time! Purely because I think my mother likes to see me reading like this. I thought that if I could study, my mother would be very happy. That's why I'm trying my best to snatch back the readership from the third uncle's house. In this way, he gave up almost all his playtime and studied day and night. Because I think my mother likes to see me read, then I read it carefully. ”

After Zhang Jie finished speaking, Wang's expression was a little stunned, this was the first time she heard these words from Zhang Jie's mouth, and for a while, she didn't know what it was like in her heart.

Gently taking Wang's hand, Zhang Jie continued:

"Originally, in my heart, it would be good to be a free rich urn. But since my mother likes to see me wearing the official uniform of the court lord, then I must wear it. Even if I give everything I have, I have to wear it for my mother. ”

"So, everything I do is for my mother, it's all for seeing the smile on my mother's face, if the smile on your face is gone, then everything I do is meaningless."

"In my heart, the whole world is a game, I can give up anything, as long as my mother is happy, even if it is like eating whole grains and porridge before. I am willing to give up my future, even my life. But I can't give up my mother's smile, my mother is my world, my everything, I am willing to do everything for my mother, anything. ”

"So, that person makes my mother unhappy, although I can't do anything to him, but we can avoid him, out of sight and out of mind, it's always okay."

Seeing the seriousness on the face of the boy in front of him, Wang, who turned around, gently hugged him into his arms, and then hugged him tightly. Stroking the boy's hair, Wang Shi said softly with a relieved smile on his face:

"Silly child, no matter what your mother thinks in her heart, he is your father after all, and you are his biological flesh and blood after all. It's useless if you don't admit it. If he wants to come back, let him come back, his mother doesn't blame him anymore, this is his home after all. He wants to come back, how can we stop him? Don't think about it, my mother is not so fragile. ”

While he was talking, Wang got up and went outside.

It didn't take long for the quarrels outside, and the noise had already dissipated? Then came the sound of a large crowd carrying things.

There were a lot of things in the six wagons, and all kinds of things filled the yard, but fortunately, the weather was getting cooler now, otherwise those perishable things of pork and mutton would have suffered.

A large group of children in the yard surrounded a large cart of messy things, so lively, the little aunt Chen Li, Liu Die'er and several girls all looked around the car of silk and satin, and they were also happy.

The old man, the old lady and the third uncle were talking intimate words around the man, and the uncle and uncle were busy carrying the goods. The third aunt and the little aunt pulled the wooden-looking Wang family to the side and said something.

The whole world seemed to be filled with laughter.

Zhang Jie in the room looked at it through the gap in the window, and he found that no matter what, he couldn't fit into the outside world. It's as if the window in front of me has cut me off from the outside world.

In the end, the family can put their minds on themselves, it must be the little aunt, although Chen Li is entangled around a cart of silk satin, but the little aunt's eyes are not on those silk satins at all, but glance at her door from time to time.

Zhang Jie can see worry, anxiety, and distress in her eyes.

However, when Zhang Jie saw the third aunt and the little aunt pushing Wang to the man's side, and saw the complicated look on Wang's face, Zhang Jie didn't want to look at it anymore.

Closing the last slit in the window, he walked a few steps to the outhouse, and then slammed the door shut.

In this way, Zhang Jie locked himself in his own world, and locked the disturbances outside in another world.

The loud noise of the door made everyone outside stunned, as if at this time they had only then thought that there was a young man who was silently resisting all this.

Seven years ago, when I first came to this world, at that time, I was helpless, after all, in that world, although I was just a most ordinary person, but I had a very happy home, suddenly lost everything, and then came to a completely unfamiliar environment, how many people can experience the loneliness in their hearts?

Slowly pull yourself out of the darkness, slowly wake yourself up from despair, slowly change yourself from helplessness, let your empty mind become warm again, let yourself regain your self-confidence, and most importantly, let yourself rediscover the meaning of life, all of this is Wang's.

An equally ordinary, not very beautiful, a little weak-minded, and doesn't like to quarrel with others, but, she puts all her thoughts on herself.

Therefore, at that time, I felt that in this strange world, this woman was the only pillar and the only belief in my heart. As long as she can be happy, she can give everything.

Anyway, there is nothing in this world that is worth cherishing except for her, as long as she can be happy, even if she disappears, it is nothing!

At that time, I thought like this, or rather, I have always thought like this, if she is not happy, she wants to reluctantly reunite with a man who once abandoned her for her future, then, what is this reluctance for?

There was no answer, after locking the door, Zhang Jie sat down at the desk, took out a small package from the bottom of the desk, as if holding some rare treasure, opened it carefully and carefully, and when he saw a pair of small shoes the size of a palm that had faded in the package, a small paper bag, and a few broken silver pieces, Zhang Jie was so stunned.

Seven years of cold window, what are you doing? Have you fulfilled your promise? Did it make Wang's face full of laughter?

If you don't have an answer and no one gives you any hints, you can just rummage through the answers yourself.

rummaged through a large pile of books on the desk, and after turning over the thin family name, Zhang Jie opened it carefully.

"Zhao Qian, Sun Li, Zhou Wu Zheng Wang!

Feng Chen Wei, Jiang Shen Han Yang!

……”

This is the first article he came into contact with, and it is this family name that officially opened his own path to study, Zhang Jie can even clearly remember that on the morning of seven years ago, he and Zhang Hao endorsed the scene in front of the third uncle, at that time, the third uncle with a small wooden stick in his hand looked proud, and the two children who shook their heads were full of seriousness.

Why go to all the trouble to grab that one place?

Yes, it's because I always feel that as long as I can enter the school, the Wang family doesn't have to be bullied like that.

When I opened the three-character scripture, a slightly yellowed note appeared in front of me, and when I opened it gently, the word 'anger control' jumped on the paper.

These are the two words that the old master gave himself in the school, his mind flowed, he quickly rummaged through the books, and finally found another note in a copy of "Mencius".

"Meditation!"

This is the second piece of advice given to him by the old master, putting the two notes in front of him, looking at the old master's vigorous and powerful handwriting on them, Zhang Jie's expression gradually fell into a trance.

Sunrise and sunset, another day in the blink of an eye!

By the time the sun had set, the noise in the courtyard had already fallen, and the noise and bustle outside had already receded.

There was a lunch box at the door of the room, with two delicate side dishes in it, and even a pot of wine next to it, but the door was never opened, so no one moved the tempting side dishes.

The hall was lit with oil lamps, and the family sat together, and it should be a happy thing to reunite a family that had been separated for several years, but now, even if the family was talking, it seemed a little absent-minded.

The sun sets and the sun rises, when the night is gone, the morning with a little cold dew comes again, and the middle-aged man gets up early in the morning, alone, in front of the closed door, silent for a long time, but speechless.

At noon, Zhang Youyou, who was staggering when he walked, struggled to carry a small food box in his hand, and the little girl with pigtails on her head touched the sweat on her face, and after glancing into the hall, she saw that the family was cheering herself up, so Zhang Youyou, who had the courage to say in a milky voice:

"Second brother, Yoyo...... Yoyo will bring you rice. ”

"Second brother, open the door ......"

If in the past, Zhang Youyou walked up to the door with such a milky voice, the second brother would have come out and hugged her in his arms, and then kissed her little face, and rode a big horse on his neck, but today, he shouted twice in a row, and the closed door never moved, and Zhang Youyou, who felt that the second brother no longer hurt him, cried and went to find his mother.

When the sun set again in the west, the old man strolled to the door, and the old man who sighed softly only said, "If you open the door, grandpa will drive that bastard away!" ”

There was no sound in the house, as quiet as ever.

After standing at the door for half an hour, and after making sure that the sound of books turning in the room came from the room, the old man who sighed fiercely had no choice but to leave.

On the morning of the third day, the middle-aged man came to the door again, knocked lightly on the door, and did not expect the door to open, and the man with a slight hint of relief in his voice said in a deep voice:

"I know you don't have my father in your heart, I can see it from your eyes, I don't blame you, I can't blame you, since you were born, our father and son haven't met a few times, you shouldn't have me in your heart, you hate me, blame me, I don't care."

"Originally, according to my thoughts, you should be an ordinary child, just like Zhang Yan of your third uncle's family, in the school for two years, or go to the county to learn the craft, or follow your uncle to work in the field, I never thought that you would come to this point, in my plan, five years later, I will be completely in charge of the entire Li family, at that time, I will return to my hometown, at that time you are eighteen, at that time, it is the time for me to do my duty as a father, and even have already thought about it, When the time comes, take the two of you to the county seat, and ask for a few pretty daughters-in-law for your boy, and when the time comes, your boy promises to call me dad obediently. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Lang suddenly smiled, slightly self-deprecating, but his eyes revealed this strong sense of pride, took a deep breath, and Zhang Lang, who straightened the stick again, said with relief:

"Since your kid has a great future, it doesn't matter if you have my father or not, everything is your own hard work, even if I am your father, I don't have the right to point fingers, because, I haven't fulfilled that obligation, you don't want to see me, come out and drive me away, a manly man, do it right, sit upright, and lock yourself in the house like a girl?"

"Let's go, you're on your own!"

When he turned to leave, the hint of relief at the corner of his mouth inevitably turned into bitterness, and in the end, he still didn't have a good word with him.

"Endure what ordinary people can't bear, it's a real man, boy, you're still far behind!"

Leaving such a sentence, on the morning of the third day, the man named Zhang Lang left like this.

Seeing that the eldest son, who had been separated for many years, left like this, the old lady in the hall wiped her tears again, but the old man only glanced at the back of the man leaving, but turned his gaze to the closed door.

That's a person who will soar to the sky in the future, but he can't sink because of such a blow.

The family originally thought that when the middle-aged man left, the dead knot in the young man's heart would melt, and the young man would naturally come out at that time, but they never thought that from morning to noon, the door still did not open.

Wang, who has not entered the house for three days, came to the door of the room, and then sat down gently, and then nagged to himself alone for a long time, starting from the young man's croaking to the ground, when talking about the young man's childhood when he was a child, even now, Wang's face will be a little helpless, talking about the joy of the young man when he was admitted to the show, and talking about the dreamlike dream after the young man became a master.

From noon to evening, but the door never opened.

And it wasn't until this moment that the family suddenly realized that the dead knot in the young man's heart didn't seem to be just Zhang Lang.

On the fourth day, in the end, the old man with crutches came to the door, and when he came to the door, he scolded him bitterly, and even smashed the door with the crutches in his hand, and finally the old master's crutches were smashed in half, but the door was still tightly closed.

The angry old master was finally carried back by the family, and at this moment, Zhang Xia, who had already cried into tears, threw herself at the door and begged, just begging the young man to go out for a meal, even if it was good to say a word.

However, even in the desperate crying of the little aunt, the door was still not opened.

On the night of the fourth day, the entire Zhang family was already shrouded in a dark cloud, and the old lady at this moment no longer cared about her departed eldest son, but began to cry that she might send a white-haired person to a black-haired person, and crying that her poor eldest grandson might not be able to think about it.

Late at night, when no one was paying attention, a slender figure slowly came to the closed door, facing the closed door, the girl with a slightly unconfident face sat down gently, as if she was afraid that people would find themselves here, the girl seemed to be very cautious and glanced at the hall, it was dark, and no one could notice her, and the girl was slightly relieved.

As low as possible in her voice, the girl even doubted whether the people in the room could hear herself, but the girl who had been suppressed in her heart for too long still slowly spoke:

"Originally, I was just an outsider, and I was not qualified to speak, but I just wanted to say something, otherwise, I felt depressed and uncomfortable."

Now that she has opened the chatterbox, Liu Die'er slowly calmed down, sighed slightly, and said softly:

"I'm an outsider, I haven't been in your house for a few days, I'll tell you how I feel these days, I'm stupid, I don't know why you're like this, just faint what I see, I always feel that you seem to have misunderstood something, you locked yourself in the house, it's nothing more than feeling sorry for your mother, I'm afraid that your mother will be uncomfortable when she sees that person, but you didn't see your mother two days ago when she was looking at that person, her eyes were bright and scary, I have never seen your mother's eyes like that, flashing and flashing, like, like, I don't understand it anyway, but ah, the look is certainly not sad. ”

Saying this to herself, Liu Die'er suddenly heard a slight noise in the room, and was startled, but when she listened carefully, she couldn't hear anything, and patted her heart slightly, Liu Die'er continued:

"I think it, everyone has their own way of living, just like me, when you and your uncle came to my house, when you told my father and mother that as long as I marry your uncle, and then help my brother see the disease, let my two younger brothers go to school, my father and mother almost pushed me out of the house, as if I was afraid that you would not want me, and when I came back from the carriage with you, in fact, I was sad, and I always felt that my father and mother could push me out of the house without caring for my brother, but fortunately, I met your familyIf it's a bad person, the rest of my life may be very miserable! ”

"That's it, a few dozen taels of silver, my biological father and mother can ignore my life or death, who should I blame? Who to hate? I don't know, anyway, I don't think I should hate my parents, it's not easy for them, in order to treat my brother, they have nothing, what's the use of me blaming them? So, sad, happy, it's not just you who are experiencing it, everyone is experiencing their own sad happiness, how do you know that the unhappiness at this moment is not to prepare for more happiness in the future? ”

"In this world, you are not the only one who suffers, and there is no shortage of you, so ah, let's stand up happily, don't be for others, just for yourself, be happy!"

'Squeak! ’

Just like that, suddenly, the door opened, and the young man with a smile on his face looked at the stunned girl at the door, and suddenly smiled: "If you don't want to, you don't have to marry my uncle, your two younger brothers can still take classes in the school, you can find a Ruyi Langjun again, and find your own happiness again!" ”

"No need!" Liu Die'er, who suddenly got up from the ground, blushed, waved her hands indiscriminately, and said eagerly: "I think this is my happiness." ”

"Yes!" Nodding, the young man stepped out of the room, and then the young man shouted at the hall, "Mother, little aunt, I am hungry!" ”

"Hey......"

Immediately, there was a noise in the hall, which seemed to be too rushed, mixed with the sound of tables, chairs and benches colliding!

Wang, who was the first to rush out of the house, saw the young man standing in the courtyard, and was overjoyed that he didn't know what to do, and his lips trembled, and he rushed towards the kitchen while touching his tears.

Maybe it was too anxious, the little aunt fell when she rushed out of the door, but she didn't care at all, and the little aunt who got up in a hurry threw herself directly into the arms of the young man, as if she had experienced life and death, and the little aunt who hugged the young man tightly was crying.

The whole family rushed out, and after seeing the young man with a smile on his face, the third uncle on the side shook his head and scolded with a smile: "If you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing!" ”

But he didn't want the old man to reprimand with a straight face: "What crazy words! Xiaojie is enlightened! Break the barrier in his heart and go to the next level, just around the corner! ”

Looking at the little aunt who was crying in his arms, Zhang Jie said calmly: "Okay, okay, happy event, crying can become a funeral!" ”

Seeing that the little aunt was still crying, while no one was paying attention, Zhang Jie pinched her **** hard, and then in the exclamation of the little aunt, Zhang Jie went to the kitchen quickly.

Looking at the young man with a smile on his face in a daze, at this moment, Zhang Xia felt that her little nephew suddenly became different.

It seems that I have become a lot more confident!
