There is always something in the world that science can't explain, and in just a few steps the ship can be started.

When the old woman got off the boat, she also said: "You are lucky, today is the birthday of King Jizo Bodhisattva, otherwise the boat will probably capsize." ”

Well, today is the thirtieth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar.

My mother believed in that very much, and said that the best thing to do is to believe in Buddhism and Taoism. I was deeply affected by it, and I have not yet reached the point where I have been refreshed by the events on the ship.

A series of things made me can't wait to leave my hometown as soon as possible, but fortunately, the summer vacation is over.

A long absence is better than a newlywed, this is the truest saying. Not seeing each other for two months must be too affectionate, and rightfully so.

It can also be applied to family affection, of course the word newlywed is inappropriate, I am talking about feelings.

But it doesn't apply to friendships, which still need to be connected from time to time. It is often said that real brothers don't need to be in constant contact, just need to meet, a look, and a hug are enough. , illusory superficial effort.

I met a junior high school classmate on the bus, and I had a very good relationship in junior high school, and they were inseparable when they ate and slept.

We have also done a lot of dirty things together. For example, help the other person go to the women's toilet and ask for paper towels. Another example is to go to the girls' dormitory in the middle of the night to steal underwear and underwear, and when the red flag is raised on the flagpole. I forgot to come down, and the scene of the next day can be imagined.

But when they met again after many years, they seemed so rusty, and they could see that the other party was trying to find a topic, but in the end it was still an awkward chat.

College classmates are different, at the beginning, the three views have been preliminarily determined, there is good communication knowledge, and people who are realistic will be regarded as a passerby.

I didn't like going to school, especially the dormitory, because the other three people in the dormitory had a habit of playing with fruit.

There were thirty-seven people in the class, just four of us boys, and the rest were all girls. Logically speaking, I should be happy, but I am not happy at all.

Zhang Yue knows that there are many girls in my class, including our department. So I often check my phone, and the inspection is very detailed.

In fact, she doesn't have to be so suspicious, I often joke: I can't even satisfy you, how can I have the strength to find someone else.

The biggest reason is that there is a course in human sketching.

In my freshman year, there was a course in human sketching to refine the basics of painting, and at the beginning, I asked the old man to be a model for 50 yuan. At first, we longed for this kind of thing like human sketching. Knowing that the painting of men will wear a pair of underwear and women who do not exist is the object of our yearning.

But when you go to draw an old woman, you're really drunk.

It's a bit blasphemous to the elderly, and it's not easy to draw. Body sketches and head sketches are better drawn by fat people than thin ones, and young people are better drawn than old people.

With fewer folds and fewer dark sides, there are fewer transitions.

In fact, the real reason is that we want to draw girls, and girls probably want to draw boys.

Later, the head of the teaching finally opened up, and it was replaced by a boy and a girl. The class fee also increased, because the average number of boys and girls was one hundred times, and one yuan could buy eight fried buns at that time.

Later, some girls in the class said that it was better to give money to outsiders than to give it to their own class, because there were several models in front of them who were students from other departments.

There are a lot of girls in the class, so I often draw girls, and I was very interested at first, but then I started to skip class and didn't want to draw.

Aesthetic fatigue is suitable to describe many things, and our four boys often nag: "Why can't the course be finished, and I want to be a monk if I continue to paint." "To be honest, at the beginning, my body often reacted, but then I didn't react at all, and sometimes I didn't even react to Zhang Yue, and I was worried that my sexual orientation had changed.

There are many male students in the chemical engineering department, and some of them are even full of boys, and they envy us. But we also have our own sufferings, whether it is basketball or football, we can't form a team, whether it's competitive games or online games, there are always few people, and of course the hard work is always done by boys.

School life is boring, but fortunately, life in urban villages is getting more and more lively, and more and more high school buddies come here to rent houses. Such as Wang Dian, Xiao Wen, etc., there are also some female classmates.

Studying in junior year is intense and boring. I learned animation design, and I also know some advertising design software. Watching Wang Dian open his own shop to sell jewelry, Xiao Wen has already begun to go to work and wait for the impact of others, and I can't be idle.

However, the animation market was too small at that time, and my own design software skills were too poor to find it. So starting with the work of advertising design, it still doesn't work.

Zhang Yue said: "Some of my classmates said that there is a training institution in the capital, and it takes more than half a year to study more than four years of university. ”

I asked, "It's not good to take leave for half a year, let alone what about you if I go for half a year?" Aren't you afraid to live here alone? ”

"Get out of the house, I'll go to the school to live." She said this in a low voice. After more than two years of living together, I have long been accustomed to each other's lives, and I think she resisted me in her heart.

Besides, where do you put the stuff in this room? It's definitely not okay to put a friend there, and it's estimated that it's gone.

In the past few years of renting a house, I have always moved several times, and things must have moved more than once.

In the end, we came to a conclusion, don't learn animation 3D software, anyway, there is no market for the time being. Go to the advanced course in advertising for a month, and there is exactly only one month of course.

I discussed it with my family, and at first they were against it, because I had never been out of the province, let alone alone. There are several relatives in the capital who are doing business, and the parents only agree after greeting them.

The head of the department is a young postdoc and a young woman who likes to dress up, and the four of us in the dormitory have invited her to a few late-night snacks. After some communication, she agreed.

In this way, it was decided to go north after the National Day holiday.

The one I am most worried about is Zhang Yue, her dormitory is the same as mine, the other three are all natives of the provincial capital, and they will go home on weekends. She must go back to renting a house to live, but Zhang Yue is afraid of renting a house alone, because there are thieves.

In the end, she discussed with Tian Li's girlfriend Lu Sha, and asked her to accompany Zhang Yue on Shuangxiu, or Zhang Yue invited her classmates to accompany her.

It was already very cool in the morning in the capital in October, and I didn't look for relatives to pick me up, but found a high school brother who was interning here, He Wen.

I was very touched that I arrived at seven in the morning and he arrived at half past six. He lives in Jimen Bridge, which is still a little far from the West Railway Station.

He Wen took me to eat a bowl of beef noodles at the West Railway Station, 28 yuan. I go, the capital is the capital, a bowl of beef noodles, two thin slices of beef, and a small cabbage are twenty-eight.

Then he sent me to Xipingzhuang, accompanied me to sign up for daily necessities, and was busy until I had dinner and drank wine in the afternoon. And said that he would come to me on Sunday and take me around the capital, and when he accompanied me to sign up, he knew that I only had a day off on Sunday.

The training institution's teaching building is behind a villa complex, while the dormitories are five kilometres away from the teaching building.

There was only one bus passing by, and the interval was quite long, which made me experience high school life for a long time.

I get up at six o'clock every day, wash up and buy something to eat in a hurry, and eat while walking on the road. At noon, there are no restaurants nearby, so you can only make noodles, or you can go back to the dormitory to eat.

There are many restaurants near the dormitory, including Sichuan and Hunan cuisine. It's just that the dishes that come out are not spicy at all, and they are told to fry them spicy, but the result is still not spicy.

When I go back and go back to eat what I don't like, I'd rather eat instant noodles.

Behind the first floor of the school building is a pavilion with tables for people to sit and eat and smoke. Next to the pavilion is a high metal mesh fence, and on one side of the fence is a cluster of villas.

The people who eat in the pavilion are instant noodle brothers, and I am also my brother. I don't know what their hearts are like, but I'm a person who doesn't like instant noodles in the first place.

There are a few leashed dogs on the other side of the fence, Golden Retriever, Rottweiler, Erha, Labrador, etc. Their bowls are almost all steamed meat, or pure lean meat. Anyway, I didn't see dog food, and I don't know if there was such a thing as dog food at that time.

I eat instant noodles every day, but the dog's meal is lean meat, and he still doesn't eat it, isn't it annoying?

I have to say that the gap between the rich and the poor in society is quite large, even now, maybe someone has a savings of millions at home and thinks it is good, and people are superior. But in the eyes of the real rich, he is still a poor man.

The class was very interesting, ranging from fourteen or fifteen years old to people in their sixties, and the question-and-answer computer teaching was conducted.

It's also quite interesting in the bedroom, there are eight people in the upper and lower bunks, and there are people from almost all directions.

I thought that northerners were not afraid of the cold, and southerners were not afraid of the heat. As a result, at night, I saw people from the Northeast wearing jackets and Yunnan people wearing short sleeves, and my three views were confused.

A week later, after getting acquainted, I realized that the guy from Yunnan didn't bring thick clothes when he came.

Not everyone eats instant noodles at noon, and most southerners still like to eat rice, so many people still go back to the dormitory to eat an hour and a half after school at noon.

Me too, instant noodles have to eat after two meals.

On the way, I was stopped by four middle-aged men, which scared me. One of them said he had no money to eat, so he asked me to get some money to buy food.

His uncle, this kind of person is also common in WH, sometimes I will give, but these few look like they don't give or let go. I asked how much I needed to eat.

"At least two or three hundred? We still have to buy tickets to go back to our hometown. ”

Isn't this Nima just forcing money?

"No, I still eat instant noodles every day." Although I was a little panicked, I still had to answer hard.

If you want to leave, they stop you, but it's still the same sentence "okay, okay".

At this time, two Northeast alumni who often play guitar together in the dormitory next to them passed by: "Yu Xi, what's the matter, let's go, let's eat." "Pull me and go.

The four people didn't stop again, and the two were about 1.9 meters, they didn't dare.

This training school is close to the Fifth Ring Road, which was not as good then as it is now. Many outsiders like to beg for money in the suburbs, and the two Northeast brothers once fought with the begging for money.

One of the Northeast buddies gave me a small dagger with a knife holster and said, "I've sent you, next time I encounter a knife and leave, they don't dare to stop me." ”

I was not polite, accepted it, and invited him to a restaurant for a meal in the evening.

This incident once again refreshed my three views. What we think is a good place is not necessarily beautiful, and what we think is often not what we think.

Of course, civilization is progressing, and many things are progressing with it. I don't think that kind of thing will happen in Xipingzhuang now, I thought.
