November 22, Friday.

After lunch, He Zhiyuan went back to the rental house to look for a job, Gui Ying was annoyed that he tossed back and forth for some reason - he came to the house to cook at home, and left on time after eating. Finally, he took a vacation by himself, and in the afternoon the couple could have sat together to talk about their recent work and children, but he didn't stay much. The old man next door squinted and listened to Qin's play, Gui Ying got up at ten o'clock in the morning, and went to bed at two o'clock at the moment. It's really boring, everyone else is at work, and I can't go anywhere on a big vacation, and women are tossing and turning in bed, which is boring.

Suddenly, the phone rang, and Gui Ying got up suddenly.

"Hey! Sister Ma! Are you free in the afternoon? The person on the other end of the line asked leisurely.

"What's wrong? Drinking again? ”

"No, no, no! Why are you all drinking in your head? Hmph...... I'm looking at the house here in Longhua in the afternoon, are you free? It looks like it's near your neighborhood. ”

"Which property? The newly opened Heyuan Residence or the Eight Pearls? ”

"Oh, one is the three-room of Heyuanju, one is Fengyasong on the Longhua side, and the other is Chengyuan in Hongshan. There are four or five sets in total, I looked at the VR pictures one by one, and I felt that it was not bad, and I thought that I would have nothing to do today. How's that, a piece? ”

"Good! Heyuan Ju is very close to our Jinhua blessed land - a few hundred meters, I walked there for a few minutes! Oops my god...... I finally found a chance to go out for a ride, I slept from last night until 10 o'clock in the morning, and if you don't call me at noon, I will have to go back to sleep! People go to school and go to work, this little holiday is really boring, and the grass grows idle! Gui Ying complained while lying in bed.

"That's okay, I'll go to Heyuanju in forty minutes, let's see you at the gate of Heyuanju."

"Okay, hang up."

After Gui Ying finished speaking, she lifted the quilt and got out of bed, and began to wash her face, brush her teeth, change her clothes and makeup. The old horse, who was lying on the rocking chair in the afternoon, saw her coming and going, going in and out, and knew that she was too idle to go out, but the old man was too lazy to ask, so he turned around and went to sleep. I have a personal thing to worry about, Gui Ying is busy playing during the holidays, Zhiyuan is in a hurry to find a job outside, Tsai Zai is going to school and leaving school regularly, Lao Ma is just thinking about getting up at half past three to wash his face and go out to pick up Yangyang.

In other words, who is the caller? How could a phone call summon Gui Ying away lightly.

That's right, this time it's Wang Fuyi again.

Wang Fuyi has been prosperous recently, the factory's orders are scheduled for next year, the company's performance has also grown rapidly, and the only investment he thinks of with cash in his hand is to buy a house. What better business in China than buying a house? The factory works diligently and fearfully all year round, and there is no house doubling to make money quickly. In 2005, he pooled his money to buy a house of 8,000 yuan per square meter in the urban area, and now it has risen to 120,000 square meters. When I married my ex-wife, I bought a big one, and on Xili's side, I bought it for less than 30,000 yuan, and now it is more than 70,000 yuan. I bought a set in Bao'an the year before last, and now it has risen to 80,000 for more than 30,000 yuan. Although this year's Anke Exhibition is a bit sluggish, his business is not depressed, but he has used the platform of this exhibition and the contacts accumulated in the past to attract several big business. After making money, of course, I thought about buying a house for the first time.

Does Wang Fuyi have to buy it in Longhua? Not necessarily. He just wanted to ask Gui Ying out of this pretense, take a look at it, and secretly promote himself by contacting and communicating again and again, so that Gui Ying's understanding of himself from a leader and a friend to a deeper level, and quickly elevate the relationship between the two from a friend who has been moving around frequently recently to another level. The intersection between the two of them is nothing but the exhibition, saying that the iron should be struck while it is hot, he does not want to miss this capable, bold and funny, lovely Sister Ma, he wants to increase his horsepower to create that suitable time to show his heart.

"Hey! Is it Mr. He Zhiyuan? ”

At two o'clock in the afternoon, an interview-style voice came from Zhiyuan's phone, and the man was so surprised that he closed the door and answered the noise.

"Yes, yes, yes."

"Hello, I am a staff member of Tiancheng Training Institution, we saw your resume on the website and think your qualifications are very good. Now we have a job here, I don't know if you are interested. ”

"What job?" He Zhiyuan asked while holding the receiver of his mobile phone.

"Our training institution does not specifically provide language training for small classes, but we have three students here who want to make up for high school Chinese, mainly in classical Chinese and ancient poetry, I don't know if you have this idea."

"Yes." Men have a sense of desperation.

"That's right, these three students are not in the same place, and if you decide to make up the lesson, you need to go to the door to make up for it. The home address is in three places, and each person has six make-up lessons per week, and the cost of the lesson is subject to interview, because we also need to evaluate your teaching style and so on in person. ”

"Those three students...... In Longhua? ”

"It's all in Longhua, and our training center is also in Longhua. One of them was in Qinghu and two were near Shangtang. ”

"Near Shangtang...... Are you a student at Shenzhen No. 2 High School? The man frowned.

"Yes, a sophomore at Shenzhen No. 2 High School."

"Oh!" He Zhiyuan's heart sank.

"Are you free tomorrow? We'll talk in person tomorrow when we have time. ”

"No need, I want to find another job, thank you, hang up!" After speaking, He Zhiyuan took the initiative to hang up.

Shenzhen No. 2 High School is the school where he used to work and teach, and if the news of him making up classes outside the No. 2 High School spreads to the No. 2 High School, how should his former colleagues and students view him? Between money and decency, the arrogant always prefer the latter. The man sighed softly and collapsed on the bed in a daze. God played a little joke on him, but he couldn't laugh at all.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Nanshan Hualian Building, Mojia Smart Home, Lin Guolong, the financial director of the branch, and Ren Sixuan, a newly arrived financial expert, had just returned from a business trip in Guangzhou and brought some special products to the colleagues in the office. So everyone gathered in one place, eating afternoon tea and chatting.

"Hey! I bought 10 movie tickets in a group, and the average price was only 10 yuan, how about inviting everyone to watch a movie on the weekend? Tang Zheng finished eating the pastry and raised his hands and asked everyone.

"Yes! Recently released a science fiction film "For the Dignity of Mankind", the rating is good! Mai Yiyijiao, who was wearing pigtails, said dribblingly.

"Let's watch it together, it's more lively to watch comedies!" Lu Na proposed.

"Can I bring my family with me? My son looks at his phone every day at home, so he might as well call him out to watch a movie. He Cuiying, the department manager, asked while eating.

"Yes, you can! The time for movie tickets is 3 o'clock in the afternoon, how about we have a meal together at noon? I'm looking for a good restaurant for everyone to rub in! Tang Zheng saw that the department manager responded, it should be done, so he further proposed a dinner.

"Yes!" He Cuiying and Sister He nodded.

"Can I bring my boyfriend then?" Mai Yiyi raised her hand and asked.

"Yes!" Tang Zheng made a bold gesture, then turned his head to look at Bao Xiaotang and asked, "I'll order the number of people, Xiaotang, are you going?" ”

"Uh...... I have something to do over the weekend and can't go. ”

"Are you dating your boyfriend?" Tang Zheng inquired with a smile.

"Oh no, make an appointment with my two sisters for dinner and beauty." Bao Xiaotang told the truth.

"Tsk! That's nice. Are you going, Ringo? The disappointed Tang Zheng turned to ask the director Lin Guolong.

failed again, went around in a big circle, couldn't circle the beauty, and the cashier supervisor Tang Zheng suddenly felt empty, and his diligence was in vain.

"Good! So when it comes to the rights and interests of the majority and the rights and interests of the minority, there is a philosophical reflection for your reference, which is called the tram problem. This is a philosophical question, and I invite you to follow me on a spaceship called 'Interdisciplinary' to experience this very famous thought experiment in an immersive way. Say...... A tram gets out of control, it's driving at high speed on a track, and if it doesn't do anything and doesn't interfere, it will hit and kill five people in front of the track. Suppose you happen to be standing on the side of the track at this time, and you have a trigger at hand, and if you pull this trigger, the tram will turn to another track next to it, and there is a person standing on that track, and he will inevitably be hit by the tram. So, the question is will you pull the wrench, or not? ”

After a long silence, Professor Yu Zhejun of Southwest University of Political Science and Law continued his explanation.

"There are many versions of this ideological dilemma, and the version I just talked about is the number of five people and one person, but in fact, this situation abounds in real life, but I don't know it. For example, the old father has an inheritance, whether he will leave it to the eldest son who has no skills and no money to raise the child, or to the younger son who knows how to manage money, is diligent and kind. Again, there's a fixed amount of money, and whether the municipality uses it for seniority subsidies or unemployment benefits or poverty alleviation – see no, there's inequality in ability or value. Another example is the demolition of houses, whether we formulate a regulation that makes a small number of nail households give up their personal interests, that is, the clause that the minority obeys the majority, which I just mentioned, or respect the equality of everyone, if I don't want to demolish it, you can't demolish it. For example, if a leader, scientist or important person needs an organ transplant, and there is a death row prisoner in the prison who happens to be a match, and you have the right to decide, what should you do? Another example is that there is a fire in a certain building, and the firefighters go to the rescue, and he can only choose a room to pry the door into at the same time, so is it to save the family with many people or the family that lives alone? Is it to save a child or an adult? Is it to save a group of students in the training class or to give priority to rescuing a certain big leader or a big star? If you're the head of the fire brigade, how do you plan this rescue? Also, if a railway company wants to build a high-speed rail track to pass through Zhang San's door, Zhang San is unwilling and sues the railway company in court! Students, if you were a justice, how would you decide this case – do you insist that everyone is equal and assert the rights of the minority, or do you think about the interests of the majority in the interests of the community? This is a reflection question, and I hope that students will give me your answers or ideas about the tram problem in the next class, at least 2,000 words. Na...... That's all for this jurisprudence lesson, and there are five minutes left for the end of the lesson, so I'll summarize what we've talked about in this lesson......"

At half past seven in the evening, Zhong Xuemei was in class, and when she forgot herself, she felt coldly that someone was looking at her behind her, and when she looked back, it was her senior brother Chen Luo.

"Huh? How did you get in here? Pretty smiled back.

"The classroom door is open!" Chen Luo pointed outward, and then playfully flicked Xuemei's ponytail.

"Where are my classmates......" Xuemei reminded in an embarrassed whisper.

"What are you afraid of! Who doesn't know if the two of us are close! Chen Luo shook his shoulders and smiled evilly.

Xuemei lowered her head to store the stationery, pretending not to hear it, and ignored it.

"The bell rings after class, the next class is an elective, don't you go to it, how about we go to the movies?" Chen Luo proposed.

"Uh......" Xuemei lowered her head and pouted, and was flipping through the corner of the book to think, when suddenly her roommate Guan Yingying came over and greeted her senior brother with a smile: "Senior brother, don't you have classes at night?" ”

"Nope! I finished my electives early. ”

"Do you have any love words and little secrets! Am I inconvenient to say! Guan Yingying smiled all over her face, looking at Xuemei's hesitant appearance and deliberately teasing the two.

"No! Yingying, don't talk nonsense! Xuemei tugged at Guan Yingying's clothes and blushed.

"I invited her to watch a movie, and she was thinking! Are you free? If you don't go together, she will definitely go if you want to go! Chen Luo asked Guan Yingying for help.

"Really? Am I that important? Guan Yingying pointed to herself and asked the two with a flattered smile.

"If you want to go, I'll go." In order to avoid suspicion and not to embarrass the two, Zhong Xuemei pulled in her roommate.

"Really? What's wrong with you two? Do you have to find a light bulb? Kwan Ying Ying teased.

"What are you talking about!" Zhong Xuemei patted Guan Yingying's arm.

So, the three of them went to the theater to watch a movie without embarrassment. Chen Luo saw the beauty left and right, and he was in a hurry to buy drinks and popcorn, and he was so busy that he was overjoyed. When sending the two back to the dormitory at night, Ben had a few jokes, a few things, and a few feelings to confide in Xuemei, but Xuemei had to let Guan Yingying wait for her, and finally the young man's love words were forced back.

At half past five in the afternoon, He Zhiyuan came back with a lot of dishes, and in order to let the family have a reunion meal, he specially called or sent a message to his father-in-law, wife and son to tell them not to eat out. At six o'clock, the old and the young came back first, and the old horse found snacks for the hungry Yangyang to fill his stomach; At seven o'clock, the boy came back with a heavy school bag, and the school ended early on Friday.

Approaching six o'clock, Wang Fuyi took Ma Guiying to see the last house, and in order to express his gratitude, he specially found a hotel in the surrounding shopping malls, Ma Guiying refused many times, but Fuyi's car had already driven to the door of the hotel. A shop on the left is a chain of Sichuan cuisine, and Fu Yi pointed to the people queuing at the door and frowned.

"I originally wanted to invite you to eat Sichuan food, look at it, there are too many people! Why don't we go to eat Western food next door! There are few people over there. After speaking, Fu Yi pointed to the Western restaurant next door. In fact, this Western restaurant is the target dining place that Wang Fuyi found in advance, and the Sichuan cuisine next door unfortunately became his trick.

"Eat whichever side is fast!"

Women are helpless, it is normal for them to do business and accompany customers or friends in the industry to eat, and it seems very narrow to always use the elderly and children as an excuse. There was no way, knowing that Zhiyuan was cooking at home, she didn't dare to call Zhiyuan, so she had to dial the old man's phone, saying that her friend insisted on inviting her to dinner, and she couldn't push it off and ate outside.

"Far away, Yingying said she was eating out and just called me." The old horse came to the kitchen door with the phone and relayed.

"With whom?" Zhiyuan couldn't help but inquire.

"She said they were friends." The old horse turned around and was about to leave, when Zhiyuan shouted behind him.

"Dad asked Yangyang to eat less, and I will finish the fried rice with the last dish."

"Oh good!"

At half past seven, the family finally had dinner. a plate of beef with spiced sauce, the old man's favorite food; a plate of braised fish, which Yang Yang loves to eat; cold celery, peanuts and walnuts to nourish his son's body; There is also a plate of fried spinach and a pot of barley and yam porridge, which are made for Gui Ying to eat. In the kitchen, I was dizzy and sweating profusely, but I waited for the empty phone call that my wife didn't eat, and no one could help but feel lost.

"You're busy looking for a job now, you don't have to do so much, tired!" Lao Ma said to Zhiyuan while eating a big bite, pointing to the table full of dishes.

"Since the Yingying meeting, our family hasn't had dinner together for more than half a month." Zhiyuan gave Yangyang a pickled dish.

"That's right. People in the village don't feel that they lack anything when they eat together every day, and it is rare for people in the city to eat a family meal like a festival! Tsk...... Tell me about her, she originally said that she would eat at home with a good piece, but when she came to her, she tossed around, and she was unstable day by day. I said that I slept until ten o'clock in the morning when I sent the baby to school, and I didn't know how to pick up the baby from school in the afternoon. Lao Ma had already seen the loss and unhappiness on his son-in-law's face, and deliberately criticized Gui Ying in public.

"Leave me alone, I'll turn the sky upside down! My mom has been busy for so long, can't she take two days off? My college entrance examination is coming to an end, and I don't want to live at home at all, so I travel abroad with my classmates! After the boy finished speaking, he picked the meat in his mouth and ate it.

"You yourself have money and love to go wherever you want, and Africa will also be successful! Don't take your mother's money! Is it interesting to take other people's money in style? ”

"Grandpa, you're so disappointed!" The boy squinted.

When several people were arguing, the door opened, and Gui Ying came back with her butt twisted and sleeves full.

"Oh, I'm eating! I thought you'd run out! Gui Ying walked to the table and glanced at everyone, but Du Zhiyuan didn't raise his eyes to look at her.

"You've been drinking?" The old horse leaned over and asked seriously and disgustedly.

"Nope! People ordered red wine, but I didn't drink it, don't believe you smell it? Gui Ying leaned over an arm for the old man to smell, and the old man turned his face away and glanced at him.

"You don't smell it, little girl! Did you smell your mother's drinking? Gui Ying held Yangyang in her arms and sat on Yangyang's chair by herself.

"Nope." Yang Yang seriously pouted his little nose and sniffed for a long time, and then replied.

"I'll go! Boy, do you know the smell of wine? Gui Ying raised her chin in some surprise and asked.

"Hmm." The little man nodded, amusing the adults.

Gui Ying fed Yangyang a few bites, and suddenly opened the conversation and said, "Dear, do you know how much the house next door and Yuanju cost per square meter?" ”

Knowing that Gui Ying was saying to herself, Zhiyuan glanced at her and did not answer.

"One hundred thousand?" Tsai Zai rushed to answer.

"No, more than eighty thousand! Do you know how much is the house price per square meter in our Jinhua blessed land? ”

"One hundred thousand?" The boy replied with little confidence.

"Don't tell your child about that." Zhiyuan interjected coldly.

"It's public! I don't say, doesn't he have eyes? Which of the few stores at the door did not post the latest house prices in our community at the door? ”

"How much?" Tsai Tsai was curious.

"One hundred thousand upwards! Our Jinhua blessed land is now more expensive around, because there are primary and secondary school degrees, and the housing prices are standing out! Gui Ying's face was elegant.

Seeing that no one responded, the woman herself continued: "Honey, talk to you! I have an idea. Today I went out with my friend to see the house, and ran to three places - Longhua's Feng Ya Song, 70,000 square meters; The Chengyuan of Red Mountain is less than 80,000 flat; There is also the Heyuan residence next door to us. The houses in these three places are very good, especially the ones in Hongshan, the three-bedroom apartment is particularly large, the transportation is convenient, and the surrounding big shopping malls are next to each other, and! Municipal libraries and concert halls are being built there, and you can count how many libraries in Longhua District have reached the municipal level! That's it! ”

"So what?" Zhiyuan asked calmly.

"So...... So have you ever thought about it...... We can change to a big house! Sell this set of 100,000 yuan in Jinhua blessed land, and buy a larger, three-bedroom and two-living room, and in the future, the big (father) can also come out of a small room to live alone! Now this set has been sold for more than 9 million, and the Chengyuan of Hongshan has basically been decorated in full, and we will not suffer a loss, and there will be hundreds of thousands left! It's also a school district house over there, and the public welfare is much more than here, and there are no big parks, green spaces, and reservoirs at the municipal level? Seventy years of unification of property rights, we have been living here for ten years, and if the family moves in, we can live for more than ten years! When the time comes, you will decorate according to your wishes, and decorate it into that Chinese style, high-end, elegant, and high-grade...... "Ma Guiying's eyes are shining, and her mouth is full of lotus flowers.

"Oops! Your abacus is bright! What are you going to do, don't use my name, I'll go back to Tun in two days, what kind of small house will you give me! I'm living very well with Zai Tsai now, and the two of you can't sleep and can still chat. "As a villager, Lao Ma doesn't like turmoil very much.

"Mom, you mean it's all right for us to move in, don't you?" Tsai asked with a monkey holding a bowl.

"yes!" Ma Guiying replied loudly, turned her head to look at Zhiyuan, Zhiyuan was silent, and chewed meat silently. Obviously, at this time, the woman who got into the money forgot to consider whether the house could be sold, whether the selling price was as she wanted, whether the intermediaries on both sides were satisfactory, the transfer of Yangyang, the living area of Chengyuan, the adaptation of the family and many other practical issues.

"Then why not move?" The teenager asked.

"How's it going?" Ma Guiying asked Zhiyuan with her thighs shaking, so anxious that spit came out of her mouth.

"You saw the house in Red Hill for yourself?" Zhiyuan asked calmly.

"Yes! I saw it with my own eyes! I watched it in the afternoon, or why would I tell you this! Gui Ying was a little excited.

"What do your friends say about the house over there?"

"He liked it very much, and he said he wanted to buy it! We'll be able to move in together then, and the neighborhood will have a baby! Gui Ying's whole person seemed to be floating in the air, and the words she said seemed to come from the sky.

"Which friend? Is it credible? Are you sure he didn't fool you into letting you buy a house? "He Zhiyuan is interlocking.

"I'm sure! It's my former manager, you've seen it, the one who sent me back in the car accident that day, and he's very reliable! ”

As soon as these words came out, the old horse chuckled in his heart, his body was motionless, and his eyes quickly glanced at his son-in-law, and the old man instantly understood Zhiyuan's thoughts. He Zhiyuan put down the chopsticks and bowl, clasped his hands to his chest, looked directly at the dishes on the plate, and stood still with a straight face. That confused Gui Ying and shocked the boy, I don't know how my father could have such a complicated and crazy expression.

"How's that? If you think it's feasible, take Tsai and Da to see the house tomorrow. Gui Ying couldn't wait, as if a big business was in front of her - if she didn't grab it, she couldn't do it, and it seemed like she had an extra 800,000 cash thrown on her head out of thin air - she couldn't pick it up.

He Zhiyuan stood up with drooping eyelids, took off his apron, turned to stare at Gui Ying and said, "I have something to do tomorrow, you can wash the dishes yourself, don't let the big or the boy wash the dishes for you." After saying that, he went straight to change his shoes and went out.

This left so quickly that Gui Ying looked stupid, looking at the hallway of the entrance, her eyebrows were furrowed, and her lips were not together. After a while, I took a breath of cold air, and my five organs swelled.

"I buy something to shake my face, I give him an idea to find a job, and I am here to discuss something! There's something wrong, just leave every day, what do you mean! What the hell does it mean? If you are not happy, slam the door and leave! Gui Ying looked at the back of Zhiyuan leaving inexplicably, and was furious for a while, not caring that her children were still in front of her.

Lao Ma knew that Gui Ying had a rough temperament and couldn't say it clearly, so he could only remind: "Oops...... You do anything, talk to him! ”

"Aren't I talking to him?" The woman slapped the table hysterically and cried unsuspectingly.

"I mean...... You put your mind on the house, don't go out with your friends all the time. The old horse rubbed his chopsticks and looked at Gui Ying, his eyes flickering a little.

"I've been working for more than 20 days in one go, and now I'm taking a total of four days off, so I can't even go shopping with my friends! If I didn't put my mind on my family, I would be so desperate to make money! Gui Ying slapped the table and spatted her mouth.

"What are you shouting! You don't know how to spend more time with the baby when you're on vacation, what are you doing when you go out with others! The old horse also opened his voice.

"How can I accompany her to school?"

"Does she go to school twenty-four hours a day? You work overtime and the baby talks to you every day, you go to be chic on your own during the holidays, and his father cooks for two hours, cooking porridge and boiling medicine for you, what are you doing? What kind of table is it, scare the baby to death! After speaking, Lao Ma stretched out his hands and hugged the crying Yang Yang out of Gui Ying's arms.

The little man cried and chirped, and the tears could not be stopped one by one; Gui Ying had tears in her eyes, she was extremely aggrieved, and she bit her lip and went back to her room.

After the air was quiet, Tsai Zi sighed, looked at all this and was confused, and asked Grandpa in a low voice.

"What's wrong?"

"Not much, let's eat yours." The old horse clumsily wiped his tears and mouth.

Originally, a good family had a reunion dinner, but after being so angry in vain, Lao Ma frowned and felt unhappy. Gui Ying has the ability, brains, and guts, but she is emotionally stupid and simple, and she can't see the fame and the doorway, if she pokes the window paper and says it bluntly, it will make Gui Ying thunderous and angry, and she doesn't know what ridiculous things to do for her innocence. Lao Ma also blamed his son-in-law for not speaking openly and doing things happily, he couldn't change his tone to express his concerns, and he couldn't solve them internally between the husband and wife, which made the family jump and feel uncomfortable. This kind of thing that can't be explained and can't find evidence is the most annoying. Old Ma didn't want to make the two of them suspicious of him, let alone muddy the water, so he simply kept his mouth shut.

The woman next door was crying alone under the covers. The most unbearable thing for a temperamental person is grievance, just as He Zhiyuan's soft personality can't stand jealousy the most. In order to make money, she worked tirelessly day and night, but she was disliked by those closest to her, and her kindness was repeatedly regarded as a deliberate provocation. A woman is not afraid of quarrels and fights, for fear that he will ignore her, for fear that he will throw off the trap called marriage or husband and wife. Afraid of anything, Zhiyuan's absence, dodging, and indifference made Gui Ying feel like he had lost his soul, afraid of the east and the west, and very unconfident, and his own anger pushed him even further.

After taking care of Yangyang and falling asleep at nine o'clock, Lao Ma quietly went to the kitchen to wash dishes, and Tsai helped take out the garbage and mop the floor on the side. Originally, I made an appointment to call Gu Shuyu tonight, but it turned out that it was already ten o'clock when I was busy. After ten o'clock, seeing his grandfather smoking in the rocking chair, Tsai quietly closed the door and chatted with Gu Shuyu.
