Chapter 25: Self-Resignation
After the storm, the courtyard was calm, Wang Xing was so angry that he sat in the courtyard and smoked non-stop, anger and sadness covered his whole distorted face, he took a puff of cigarette and sighed. Lu Jiazhen's low sobs overflowed the rue wall of the courtyard, sliding down into the wind-blown rice waves, and were submerged. Wang Xingxi's daughter Wang Mei stood aside and scratched her fingers as if nothing happened.
"How? Brothers! Do you have to get swords to meet each other to count? Wang Xinghai, who had just persuaded Wang Ping to leave, tried his best to cooperate with Wang Xingxi's emotions and asked him.
"Brother, tell me. How did I give birth to such a brute with five thunders in the sky? My old joy is also well-known in the village, and I am not sorry for anyone! How could you encounter such a retribution? The pale blue smoke from Wang Xingxi's mouth showed the anger he was trying to suppress.
"What kind of person you are, do you need to say! The big guys have eyes. When there's something good, you don't think about the big guy before you think about yourself. ”
"Crying... Cry... Cry your mother's head, you know how to fucking cry all day. If you hadn't been protecting your calves since you were a child, this beast would have been able to fight against Lao Tzu today! Wang Xing was angry and hateful, and shouted at Lu Jiazhen, who was sitting on the side with unkempt hair and sobbing.
"You old thing will blame me," Lu Jiazhen's sobbing voice turned into a cry.
"Don't blame anyone, you don't give birth to this beast to come against me!"
"He's not your flesh and blood!" Lu Jiazhen seemed to be disgusted and said softly.
"Damn, you're going against the grain. That brute was taught by you stinky, and it's just a virtue. I can't clean up that brute, I can't clean you up? Wang Xingxi swept his sleeveless arm and was about to rush up.
"I said Lao Xi, your temper can't be changed! Brother and sister have been beaten less by you in this life! What child doesn't talk to adults, no matter how pure and kind a donkey is, there are times when he makes a mistake, let alone a person! The child is still young, and there are some things to tell him, if the tree is not supported, it will not be straight, and people will not be able to teach it. Wang Xinghai grabbed Wang Xingxi and said.
"That beast is a child, and he's about to become my father. Look at his bird-like appearance, he can talk to you well! That's it! That's it! It's a business, it's a business! I have also seen through it, since ancient times, I have been selling Yetian without feeling distressed, and it is also my destiny to meet a loser" Wang Xingxi sighed like a deflated ball.
"How can my father and son have a hurdle that they can't get rid of, and they can't get rid of their sorrows. Since ancient times, he has fought tiger brothers and father-son soldiers. Father and son are always father and son, this is a fact that no one can change. ”
"That's it! Don't talk about it, brother, it's all anger if you talk too much! I really envy you for having a good boy, so obedient, and knowing filial piety to you. If he can catch up with one-tenth of the fourth child, I will burn high incense. ”
"Our junior has been quite obedient since he was a child."
Wang Xingxi smoked to try to calm his anger and hatred. The series of things caused by the quarrel between him and Wang Ping are just internal conflicts within the family, no matter how they are, they are also biological, but they are good in the pot, and they are rotten in the pot. No matter how good someone else's child is, it has nothing to do with him, no matter how envious he is, it has no other effect than to compare envy and hatred. "Give you a bamboo pole and you will climb up the pole, it's really shameless." Wang Xingxi scolded in his heart while thinking.
"I said why did you come here, come and see my jokes!" Wang Xingxi changed his words.
"Tell me where it is, how can I see your jokes. I'm here to look for Lime, and I didn't expect to meet you guys. ”
"What lime are you looking for?"
"Oh! Didn't Xiao Si bring a girlfriend home from the city! The child may have a good family condition, and he has never seen such a toilet in the countryside, and he is afraid of dirt and smell. It's not a little four, let me come over and find some lime to sprinkle it! Wang Xinghai was still immersed in the words that praised Wang En just now, and he didn't hear Wang Xingxi's words.
"I have it in the pocket of the coal shed behind the yard, go get it yourself!"
"Oh! Then I'll get some, don't be angry. I have already asked Wang Ping to find Xiao Si, and after a while, I asked Xiao Si to talk to him well, and they young people can talk. ”
"Hurry up and get it! I want to be quiet for a while. ”
Wang Xinghai stepped into the backyard, pulled out a clinker bag that was kneaded in the brick crack of the coal shed, filled it with some lime and left. Before going out, he also told Wang Mei, who was standing on the side very indifferently, "Xiaomei, persuade your dad more!" Don't be angry."
A new round of calm was restored to the courtyard, like a picture after the war: the lonely crow stood on a wooden stake and mourned the corpses all over the field, and the aftermath of the war was everywhere, filling the mountains and blurring the remnant sun. What remains of the battlefield after the war is the heartache and heartbreak of the living relatives for the deceased, and this fierce silence makes the living roar, scream, frenzy, restlessness, disappointment, and despair. No one wants to face such a scene, no one wants to be in such a terrifying silence. The same goes for the crow standing on a burnt stake.
Wang Ping did not come to Wang En's house, and usually he would go to the school dormitory when he ran away from home. Nestled in the room for weeks without going out, cigarette butts and mineral water bottles were all over the floor, and there was almost nowhere to put your feet. The computer desk is stacked with boxes of leftover instant noodles. The dark space blocked by the curtains was mixed with the sour smell of sweat from the bedding, the smell of burnt cigarette butts, the oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and spicy smell of the instant noodle seasoning package, the smell of bad breath and feet hovering in the house exhaled by Wang Ping's mouth, and the smell of silica gel volatilized by the computer main chassis. When Wang Ping was in school, he was obsessed with reading martial arts novels, fighting at night with lights in the middle of the night, and blowing horns in the quilt. After work, he was obsessed with playing online games, and his obsession reached the point of forgetting to sleep and eating, and his six relatives did not recognize him. Since he was obsessed with online games, his family, love, and human affection were all looking for in online games, and his work only guaranteed his material conditions, and he spent most of his time in online games, and he hated his job. When you only think of your job as a simple cash machine, which will always make you go crazy with it and punch and kick him all the time, work without emotion is short-lived after all. Once upon a time, Wang Ping was expelled from school for being late and absent from work many times, and Wang Xingxi was ashamed to ask for mercy everywhere with an old face. In recent years, the contradiction between Wang Ping and Wang Xingxi has intensified, and he knows that if he is fired again, Wang Xingxi may not plead for him again, so keeping his job has become the last bottom line for him to do whatever he wants, and he also feels that this is the biggest concession he has made to this job he doesn't like.
