Chapter 37: Twenty Years Ago
"Let me remember the contents of my dreams? May I? Fang Zhong looked at the master with some confusion and asked.
Master nodded and said, "Basically, it's okay, only if you remember the content of the dream, can you fundamentally solve your confusion." But before that, you have to tell me about the past that you don't want to think about the last time, only in this way can you get rid of the nightmare! I think you probably have a past that has been suppressed in your heart for a long time, and you don't want to mention it to outsiders, just because you feel that this incident has a great impact on you, and it even begins to occupy the darkest side of your heart......"
"Does the Master think I'm insane? No, it's not like that, you don't understand at all, she came to me, it's her, it must be her...... After all these years, she still won't forgive me! Fang Zhong was a little sensitive to Master's words, and the more he spoke, the more excited he became, and he was a little incoherent.
"Who the hell is she?" Master asked sharply.
At this time, I think Fang Zhong probably couldn't help but say it, he was very scared, and it was not difficult to see from his expression that this incident had a great impact on him. Fang Zhong paused for a short moment, and then began to talk to us about what happened twenty years ago.
Twenty years ago, Fang Zhong was only a sixteen-year-old child, and when other people's children carried schoolbags and went to school happily, he could only look at them. He also wants to have his own beautiful schoolbag like other children, and like other children, he happily goes to school with his friends every morning, but he can't afford the expensive tuition, and he doesn't even have his own daily living expenses. But Fang Zhong knew that he couldn't waste his youth like this, he wanted to break into the big city, but he also knew clearly that the city was no better than the countryside, and it was not okay to survive in the city if he didn't know how to read! So Fang Zhong thought of a way, that is, to go to the school to eavesdrop on the teacher's lectures, and he could learn something somewhat, although he was sixteen years old, as long as he was diligent, he should be able to know a few words.
After making up his mind, Fang Zhong waited at the entrance of the village early in the morning, he wanted to wait for the students in the village to leave, he would quietly follow, this matter could not be known to anyone, because once someone knew, it would definitely spread out, and the school would definitely take measures to prevent him from eavesdropping. After waiting for more than an hour, the students almost left, only Li Ran, who was known as the "talented girl" in the village, had not yet come, Fang Zhong wanted to wait for Li Ran to leave, and then he quietly followed, but he didn't expect to wait for Li Ran, but waited for Wu Xinyi, who was one year younger than him, Wu Xinyi is Wu Zhiyuan's daughter, Mr. Wu has no children under his knees, and when he was middle-aged, he accidentally picked up a daughter who was about two years old, that is, Wu Xinyi.
Now Wu Xinyi is fifteen years old, she is slim and well-loved, but there is only one flaw, that is, she doesn't know how to read. It's just that Mr. Wu's family is poor and can't afford to pay for his daughter's books and miscellaneous expenses. Wu Xinyi is also sensible and understands her father's difficulties, although she also wants to study, but she knows that it is just a luxury, she never shows it in front of her father, and she is even more filial to her father.
At that time, if you didn't know how to read, you would be criticized, after all, the people in the village were relatively poor, and even if a certain family was relatively wealthy, it was only enough for the children to finish primary school in the countryside, and it was obviously impossible to go to the city for further study. Rural people are simple and right, but they also gossip, women and people like to get together to talk about things and shortcomings, which is nothing more than to discuss whose children have good grades and will definitely be able to do great things in the future, and whose family recruited thieves a few days ago. This is normal, but unfortunately, recently, those women and Taoist families actually got together to talk about Wu Xinyi, saying that she was illiterate, and she was afraid that she could only live in this poor countryside in this life. Wu Xinyi heard this, although she didn't show it, but she felt very uncomfortable, a beautiful girl like her, who doesn't want to marry a rich man, fly on the branch and become a phoenix.
Wu Xinyi felt that this matter was very important to her, either learning to read and write, or staying at home honestly and waiting to get married. After thinking about it, she felt that she should still do something, and it was boring to stay at home all day, so she had the idea of going to school and eavesdropping on the teacher's lectures. It was such a coincidence that Fang Zhong had not had much contact with Wu Xinyi in normal times, and he never thought that this chance encounter would make the two get married.
Speaking of this, Fang Zhong sighed vigorously, he said, if it weren't for Wu Xinyi, maybe Li Ran wouldn't have died. If it weren't for Li Ran, Wu Xinyi might not have married him. I don't know if this marriage is destined by God, or if everything is just an accident. In short, after she married Wu Xinyi, decades have passed, and his family's living conditions are becoming more and more embarrassing, the old couple sulk every now and then, and even the money for their daughter's education is borrowed from everywhere. And the two have been married for decades, and they only gave birth to Fang Jing's daughter, but I didn't expect that my daughter was only eighteen years old, and it happened again!
Fang Zhong saw Wu Xinyi coming over unhurriedly, he was very curious, how could this girl, who usually doesn't go out of the door and don't step out of the second door, come out alone today, and she looks still sullen. Fang Zhong would take the initiative to say hello when he saw his elders on weekdays, and the good habits he had developed over the years made him very cheerful, and the people in the village also liked him and were willing to help him, because of this, he was able to survive all year round with the help of the villagers. Fang Zhong walked over hesitantly and said hello to Wu Xinyi: "Hey, where are you going?"
"Ignore me, annoying!" Unexpectedly, Wu Xinyi's attitude was very indifferent, she ignored Fang Zhong and walked straight past him.
Fang Zhong, who had eaten the closed door, smiled helplessly, and waited for Wu Xinyi to walk away before he followed.
Finally arrived at the school in the neighboring village, it was the first time Fang Zhong saw the school, the high wall, the red gate, there were two bonsai in front of the door, and the sound of children reading happily came from the classroom. There was no one guarding the door, and now it was the time of class, and there was no one in the playground, so Fang Zhong tiptoed in and ran in like a thief. He bent over to the window of one of the classrooms, crouched down under the wall, and began to listen.
"At the beginning of human beings, nature is good and ......" A childish voice came from the classroom. When Fang Zhong heard this, this was clearly some seven or eight-year-old children, and he thought to himself, he was already sixteen years old, and he couldn't learn children's things! But when I think about it, I can't even understand children's things now, so how can I learn more advanced! Thinking of this, he continued to crouch at the base of the wall and listened carefully. It didn't take long for him to memorize a lot of content, seeing that it was almost time for school to end, Fang Zhong planned to evacuate and continue to listen in the afternoon, when he inadvertently turned his head, but saw Wu Xinyi's figure.
