People who are always actioners rarely stop, and people who are always paralyzed are rarely sober. People who have been running in a mode or format for a long time often think that format is themselves. Jongri feels as if his life doesn't belong to him, most of the time he moves from scene to scene like a guest actor, and only when he loses his temper does he become the protagonist of life.

In the quiet room, Zhong Li was alone, squinting and smoking, his elbows on his knees, and his bare feet on the broken coffee table. Looking around the shop, the leg of the stool was crooked, and his father broke it back; The mahogany chair that I bought seven or eight years ago knocked off a ridge and left it there to be used; The four handles of the counter fell off, after all, it had been used for more than ten years; The porcelain tiles on the ground were worn out, loosened, and cracked...... There was an old and dilapidated smell everywhere in this house, and as the male owner of this house, this was the smell he exuded.

All the old and dilapidated scenes all point to the end. This is the case with this shop, so is their marriage, and so is his own life.

No matter whether his father scolded or complained, Zhong Li always put his hands in his pockets without moving. When he heard that his daughter-in-law was going to divorce, he was so anxious that he quietly wiped his tears and sighed while busy closing. After finishing the work in the shop and settling down to study, the old man swept a bicycle and went straight to Peking University Hospital to see his mother.

At this moment, Zhong Li is so quiet. Since Xiaotang left, he smoked eleven cigarettes, and then lit twelve of them. The coffee table in front of him had a lot of sharp glass edges like knives, which might scratch Xuecheng's hands, and as a father, he should have dealt with it, but he didn't do anything. He should do a lot of things now, there were many things he shouldn't do, and he knew what he should do and what he shouldn't do in the future, but he didn't have the strength and willingness to do it. He was like a combination machine, pinched and manipulated, he was very conscious and numb.

When Jong-noon arrives at the hospital, he calls Hyosung, who has recently been injured and looking for a job, so tired that he turns off his phone as soon as he goes to bed; Zhong Neng called Xiaotang, but Xiaotang prevaricated once and never dared to answer the phone again; The old man called Gui Ying again, Gui Ying was drinking with the customer, and he didn't have time to answer at all. The old man was so anxious that he thought that they would divorce when he quarreled, hoping that divorce would solve the family crisis, but it was really at the moment of divorce that he realized that divorce was just an expansion of the crisis or a permanent shelf, and it was definitely not a rescue plan.

I don't know how the parties and the two children think and how to accept it, just the old man, a peripheral person in the family, hears the divorce, like thunder hitting the brain. When I think of my son, who will be beaten as a bachelor in the future, my grandson who will leave him to live with his mother in the future, who is so old that he is paralyzed in bed and taken care of by Chung-ri, and who will marry for the second time in the future, he will have to report to others to apply for a grandson...... The sad Zhong Neng has a black face and wanders around the hospital like a lost ant.

In his heart, Zhong Neng got through the phone call of the old guy Brother Jianguo and told him what happened one by one.

"Aren't the stars good? How can there be such a thing as surgery! When the old horse heard this, he was very surprised.

"Huh?" Zhong Neng Zhangji couldn't figure it out.

"Oh you! It must be the star, her sister Tang Tang's baby lied to you! She felt that her sister was beaten a little badly, and deliberately scared and scared Zhong Li! You're here, she's not going to follow you! Anyway, on Saturdays and weekends, I watched Yingying go to the stars to see her and help her find a job! Last night, she also found two jobs, what is helping people in a hot pot restaurant for one hundred and fifteen a night! The old horse's tone was high-pitched, and his words were convincing.

"Oh! That's got to be ...... Tang Tang deceives people! Zhong Neng can be regarded as having a heart, but the tears are flowing quietly.

"Yes, it's not me, your son Zhongli is really not like words! The stars didn't make any mistakes, you started so hard! Yingying and the two cried several times for this - they were scared! Even if this matter is left in the village, you have nothing to talk about, you have to give it to others......" Lao Ma held up the phone at the other end, indignant.

"Yes, yes, yes...... Yes, yes......" Zhong Neng couldn't refute a word, only holding the phone with one hand and quietly wiping his tears and wiping his nose with the other.

When the old horse heard that the voice on the other end of the phone was not quite right-his breath was a little heavy, his voice was a little trembling, and he knew that he was weak, but he must be sad, and he was no longer interesting, so he comforted him a few words and took the initiative to hang the antelope. Zhong Neng was relieved at this time, rode his bicycle back, saw that his son had nothing, and was busy taking care of his grandson to sleep. Ming children have to get up early to go to school, and they have to get up early to make money, how can they have spare time to toss again?

On Wednesday morning, Lao Ma got up at six o'clock as usual, and after two pots of cigarettes, he went to tear up the old yellow calendar. Today is the 11th day of September in the solar calendar, the 13th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, and the ugly day of the month of Bingxu in the year of Gengzi......

"Nothing is appropriate! Don't take anything else! Nothing is appropriate! Such a bad thing! Lao Ma muttered in his mouth, although he is not superstitious about the yellow calendar, but the four words "everything is not suitable" are really ugly and terrible. When Tsai Tsai left, he reminded Tsai Tsai to ride his bike and come back early, and when Gui Ying left, Lao Ma also reminded Gui Ying to drive back early. Thinking about it carefully, the Huang Li family has everything that is inappropriate, since everything is not suitable for the family, then whose family is unlucky can only depend on the mood of the master! Thinking about it like this, my mood is a little better.

At half past seven, Zhiyuan asked Yangyang to get up, and in the process, while cleaning up the child, he explained to his father-in-law what to do in the morning from shouting Yangyang to get up to sending Yangyang to school. Before leaving, Lao Ma went to the bathroom, and when he pushed the door, he saw a yellow stinky thing coiled on the inside of the toilet - he must have been confused and forgot to flush the toilet. Lao Ma just wanted to call her over on the spot as usual, but he was pressed for time, stretched out his finger and pressed the button to flush it away, leaving a smug and restrained smile on his face after washing.

After coming out of the bathroom, Lao Ma pulled Yangyang with his schoolbag in his left hand, and carried Zhiyuan's sorted garbage in his right hand, and went out in a hurry. Zhiyuan sent the old man to the ladder, closed the door and returned home. I sat on the couch for a moment, and then at the desk. Remembering that Hyosung is a double job, he was so ashamed that he didn't sleep last night. From now until around the Mid-Autumn Festival, the father-in-law sent the child to school, and the father-in-law bought him breakfast, the task was reversed, but He Zhiyuan was idle and restless.

I worked hard all night last night, did a night of ideological work for myself, and decided to get up this morning and turn on the computer to make a resume. I looked at a few recruitment websites, but I really didn't know which position to search for in the search box.

Clerk? The company wouldn't want such an old clerk! Copywriting? No human resource will need a plan with no experience; Going to the library or bookstore as a book guide? I'm afraid the store won't want a forty-five-year-old middle-aged man like him! Going to a private kindergarten as a teacher? Forget it, one ripple is enough for him to stand it! Going to a private school or junior high school to become a teacher? Out of a big pit and into the same pit - why bother!

What can I do? He Zhiyuan pondered for a long time, and finally closed the recruitment website and closed the antelope. The older a person gets, the less type of occupation he can accept or can accept him; The higher a person's education, the narrower the industry he is engaged in; The more identity tags a person attaches to him, the more freedom he has to practice. The years are really more and more mean and ruthless to people.

"Stay to buy gold and silver, let you go!"

"It's not hard to get my gold and silver, and it's your name!"

"Mention my prestige and scare your heart!"

"I can't be so daring, yours!"

"Listen, we are the ones who fought Jiangzhou two years ago, then cast themselves into Liangshan, and worshiped with Song Jiang Daizong - the black whirlwind Li Kui is us!"

"Chirp! It's all fake! Wow yes! Even Li Kui will come out fake! ”

……

At eleven o'clock in the morning, the old horse who was listening to the play was proud of the front Zhiyuan gave him a special software to listen to the Qin dialect in his mobile phone, where he could hear all kinds of beautiful but partial Qin dialect famous songs, these two old horses could listen to the ears, and they went to the balcony to listen to the play whenever they had time.

Suddenly, the phone rang, it was the people calling, Lao Ma was a little surprised, holding the phone and roaring with a smile. Unconsciously, the old horse's smiling face stiffened, and then his stiff face turned black and red, and his mouth was slightly open, his eyes were slightly wide, and his body was straight and straight. Then the old horse began to sigh and pat his legs, and the old man stood up and paced back and forth in the house, opening his mouth as he went.

It's no wonder that I was crazy in the morning, and sure enough, everything was not appropriate - there was something big. The old horse stood on the balcony with his hands crossed for a long time, and then went to the house to change his clothes. took out his most formal white shirt, boss pants, cowhide belt, and black leather shoes from the box, and after changing clothes, he arranged his hair and put on his hat, took the leather package and put on his mobile phone, and then went to the kitchen to say hello to Zhiyuan.

As soon as Zhiyuan heard that the matter was urgent and important, he hurriedly asked, "Dad, do you want me to drive you?" ”

"No, no, no! You are busy with your own business, I don't know how long I will stay there, and you may have to pick up the baby from school in the afternoon! ”

"The meal is ready in no time! You eat two bites before you go! ”

"Don't eat it, don't eat it!" The old horse waved his hand, turned around and left in a hurry, and Zhiyuan sent it up the ladder.

After the old horse left, Zhiyuan looked at the messy kitchen - pots and pans, rags and brushes, chopping boards, garlic large storage kettles and seasoning jars...... Originally, I wanted to prepare two dishes, but the dishes were cut, and when the onions, garlic and ginger were ready, the vegetables were stir-fried, and the rice began. Now the old man is gone, and he is the only one left. One person eats a meal and stir-fries two dishes, then washes the dishes and brushes the pot, collects the food basket, the whole plate, washes the rags, and mops the floor...... Originally, eating was a very simple thing, but it took him an hour and a half before and after this meal.

Zhiyuan took off his apron, closed the kitchen door, and left the messy stove behind him for the night. He took a sip of water and went out to eat with ease, and it was more convenient to eat any meal outside than at home. After eating, he went to the supermarket and wanted to buy chopsticks, but the chopsticks at home were old and few, so it was time to buy new ones. After paying the money, Zhiyuan came out of the south entrance of the supermarket, and when he went out, he saw a sign at the south gate, which read:

Recruit. One logistics supervisor, experience is preferred, salary is negotiable; There are three supermarket shopping guides, including two meals, under the age of 50, and the salary is negotiable; One person in the cooked food area can make simple pasta, and the salary is negotiable; One person in the bakery, experience is preferred, and the salary is negotiable......

Zhiyuan had no intention of applying, but unconsciously read the recruitment content one by one, and unconsciously matched several positions that he was suitable for. It's true that the work of the supermarket is not big enough, but it is also serious work. If a person like himself, who has never left school, wants to go out, he should really try to be as bold as Bao Xiaoxing, starting with a nearby job that he can handle. If he cowers and fears wolves and tigers, I'm afraid he won't even be able to leave the house in his life.

Lao Ma got out of the district and got into a taxi, got into the car to report the address, and forty minutes after arriving at the place, the people's daughter-in-law was already waiting outside the district to pick him up. The two old men met, arm to arm together, the people couldn't help but blush before they could speak, the old horse was shocked, and asked him directly: "What the hell is going on?" ”

"Oops! It's a long story! After the two elders sat down, the daughter-in-law of the people went to make tea, and the people gasped weakly: "You don't know, it's not because of his son!" His son had a big business in his early years, and he opened a company and bought a sports car and a villa, and he speculated in stocks in 2015...... Listen to my son lose such a number in one go—twenty million! ”

"Babble!" The old horse closed his mouth in amazement.

At that time, his son's company collapsed all of a sudden, and it closed down the next year! Later, people often came to the house to play tricks and threats, and his son sold more of what he could sell at home, and there was a lawsuit for this! Later, I don't know why, it should be the end of the account. Since the year before last, his son began to invest, open stores, and set up factories, but he couldn't do anything, and he was cheated of millions of dollars. And then ...... Let's start gambling! Gambling in Shenzhen, gambling in Dongguan, gambling in Macau...... I don't know how much I owe! ”

The people were short of breath, and after a pause, the old horse took advantage of the time to ask, "That...... Is it forced to be forced into debt? ”

"No, no, no! Listen to me! That son doesn't gamble, he has been gambling all the time, he lost all his money in his early years, and the family sold some things, and his daughter-in-law and grandson have already left, and they don't want to live! Since the end of last year, the two of them have lived together! He persuaded him to go out and find a job, but his son didn't listen, and often went out to gamble for half a month or a month, and when he came back, he still had marks on his face! ”

"Oops! My old man! ”

"In the past, he had two nannies, but this year it was his old man who cooked for his son! I borrowed the money from me! Look pitiful! Ay! Min wiped away a line of tears and continued to open his mouth to breathe: "He doesn't like to talk for a long time because of this, I've seen him laugh once in the past few years - the time you came!" He doesn't like to see me anymore, if it weren't for the times when I was seriously ill, we wouldn't be able to see each other, and I wouldn't be able to talk about these things in the hospital bed......"

"Now...... Is it because there is no money to pay the bill or is it ......," the old horse asked.

"Hey, his son gambled, gambled so much that he staked the house out! Now the two of them live in his house or outside—who knows, he doesn't! For his son, his hair has turned gray in the past few years, and he is lame and lame! Ay...... He still had a few words of complaint when he mentioned his son before, but the last few times he has almost stopped being his son, not only is he not his son, but he can't even speak! My baby Junjie looks depressed, and it's more serious, we don't know what depression is! Anyway, he has obviously been different for most of the past six months, and I am also worried, but I am not alive or dead now......" The people cried again, and the daughter-in-law came to deliver tea for fear that he would cry badly, so he shouted a few words before stopping his tears.

"What about the rest? If no one does it, I'll do it for him! The old horse glared at his face, and his heart was strained.

"People have children! That's not what he called me! Let me inform a few people, including you! It should have been settled before leaving, intentionally or unintentionally! ”

"Oh, sir! It's a torturous city in this city! The old horse patted his thigh helplessly.

"It's clean when you're gone! I look at him like that, and I'm scared! ”

"It's his son...... Gas poisoning? The old horse asked with a squint.

"I asked, and he said 'gas poisoning'!" The people have been nodding frequently, and there is something in the words.

"Uh......" The two old men looked at each other, flashing in the cloud, and many words were self-explanatory.

"It's obvious!" The people suddenly pressed their throats and patted Lao Ma's wrist and leaned over: "He is very cautious, how can it be that the doors and windows are closed tightly in the white thirty degrees, and the gas in the house is still on to the maximum at three o'clock in the afternoon?" Some time ago, he didn't go out, and he didn't go out for more than two months in a row, and he didn't go out for anything! He cried for this—afraid that he would be ruined! This time, before he left, he specifically instructed his son to go out! Are you coincidental? I'm with you, he doesn't want to live in front of me this year, he can go back and forth ten times! Minwan shook his palms.

"Actually, I think he can be physically!"

The people fiercely said: "He's in good health!" No problem! People are so much better than me! I've never heard of him hurt this or that! ”
