Wen Xiaoni looked at me with some horror: "Jiaolong, your gloomy expression makes me scared......"

I smiled and looked at her, "What are you afraid of, I'm just protecting myself." ”

I didn't think I was out of line with this, Xu Linlin and Tong Anqi were not friends at all, let alone that. I'm not the common enemy of the two of them, I can only be regarded as a thorn in Tong Anqi's side if I die, but maybe Tong Anqi is Xu Linlin's thorn in the flesh, after all, to blackmail Xu Linlin is Tong Anqi, there are a lot of twists and turns.

To put it simply, Tong Anqi regards me as a rival in love, but Xu Linlin doesn't, what she likes is just fame and fortune, maybe she has thought about Zhuo Jing, but she is definitely a smart person, and she will never plant it a second time, from this point of view, it is the biggest difference between her and Tong Anqi. Because she can see it openly, and she understands it.

Aside from Zhuo Jing's point, Xu Linlin's displeasure with me is just a simple disdain, but she doesn't dare to offend me too much about her mother's affairs, the reason why she will help Angel come up with ideas is that one is to be coerced, and the other is that we were really discordant when we were children, plus some small quarrels and other things later are not on the stage for small hatreds and small grudges, and we have nothing to do with each other if we have no chance. It's not a big deal to have the opportunity to step on someone you haven't dealt with all along.

But now the situation has completely changed, I touched Xu Linlin's bottom line with Tong Anqi's name, and the two of them will naturally tear up on the phone for a while, I think Xu Linlin must also have Tong Anqi's recording in her hand, and she will also turn around and protect and threaten Tong Anqi by herself. After all, Tong Anqi wants to marry Zhuo Jing. But she followed Xu Linlin to discuss how to harm me, this kind of thing, it will be ugly if Tong Anqi is exposed.

Therefore, the two of them come and go, and the final result must be a stalemate, what I want to see is infighting, although the two of them have each other's handles to prevent them from fighting to the death, and I don't bother to watch the excitement of the two of them, just to make myself less troublesome. Live a little bit of a stop.

Wen Xiaoni didn't say much, she was going to throw away the mobile phone card, and by the way, she packed up her things and prepared to go back to her hometown with me and my grandfather tomorrow for the New Year, I didn't respond, but looked at Wen Xiaoni's back when she left, leaning lazily on the head of the bed, thinking about the expression she had just looked at me, and fell into deep thought.

Actually, I firmly believe that everyone has a little devil living in their hearts, the difference is that you are controlled by it or you control it.

Throughout the ages, people need to resist the most temptations, because people have seven emotions, six desires and eight bitterness, and no matter how similar people are, there will be slight gaps in thinking, some people are greedy for money, some people are lustful, some people are lazy, some people are happy, and so on, collectively referred to as **.

It's just that those who are controlled by the little devils in their hearts will magnify the ugliness of these human beings, and the ones who can control the demons by the self are what we often call the bottom line, and people with a bottom line will self-suppress their own inferior nature brought out from birth, and we will also use this to distinguish between simple good and evil.

When I was eighteen years old to pick up Xian'er, I was confused and ignorant of the future, I was just eager to be quite a big gentleman, but I didn't know much about the meaning of Mr. Big, I went to my grandmother's grave every day, and then carried a book, when I had nothing to do, I turned two pages, in my impression grandma basically didn't read, an old lady in the countryside, where would there be that leisure to read books, most of the books at home were thrown at home after I went to school, but there are also some very old covers about feng shui knowledge and some Buddhist scriptures, One of the "Prajnaparamita Heart Sutras" seems to have been turned over many times by my grandmother, some of it is old, I looked at it, the number of words is not much, but it can be understood, and then I know that many of the principles about good and evil that my grandmother taught me were comprehended here.

But to my surprise, I accidentally turned out a copy of the Tao Te Ching, grandma with a pencil and marked on it no desire, no action, no desire, that is, do not have the delusion and desire of non-separation, non-action, is to conform to nature, back to the basics, everything has no greed, the world is naturally stable and peaceful.

I was very surprised, I didn't expect my grandmother to instill in me the truth of Buddhism and Taoism in a silent way, taking the strengths of the two families, just to tell me the most simple truth of life. Sub-pit leading.

Don't be too greedy for money, don't be too impetuous when doing things, you are giving, you will always reap, I should be practicing the Tao, but grandma taught me to treat others with a Buddha heart.

But I'm not a saint, grandma wants to protect me, at the same time, I'm afraid that I will hurt others, therefore, she thinks the best way is to change my life, want me to be quiet, not to be affected by seven emotions, six desires and eight suffering, grandma also knows me very well, knowing that I will not use my identity as a gentleman to do bad things under her teaching, make crooked wealth, the only thing she didn't expect and didn't understand is that life is a circle, she let me bypass the way I should have walked, but one day, I will walk back, but when I walk back again, she is no longer there, So, everything spiraled out of control.

I can do it without harming others, but I can't stop others from harming me, so what to do, I can only face it calmly in my own way, in fact, it seems to be a different path, but it will end up together.

There are countless books left by the ancients and sages, I can only control the demons in my heart, but I can't make there be no demons in my heart, because people, life, too contradictory, the division between right and wrong is sometimes too vague, maybe I Ma Jiaolong will not get the Tao in the end, and I will not sublimate into an immortal after death, because I am too ordinary and vulgar, I can't let go of too many things, just for Zhuo Jing's love, I can't let go, but I don't care about those, I have no intention of becoming a god, I just hope that my life can get what I want, hold the hand of the son, and grow old with the son.

The ringtone of the mobile phone that I remembered pulled back my wandering nerves, picked it up and looked at it, it was my dad, shook his head, and left those thoughts pouring out of his head, as long as he didn't lose his heart, some things actually couldn't think too much.

Pick up your phone, "Hey, Dad." ”

"Jojo, is the cold getting better?"

"Well, it's much better."

I responded softly, and there was still a thick nasal voice in my voice, but there were some things I thought I had done right, such as giving Anton's shop to my dad to manage, not to mention whether I made money or not, the important thing is that the father-daughter relationship between me and him has been greatly improved, and my dad will occasionally call me, although we are a little cramped to each other and don't know what to say, just ask, how is the body, be careful of heat stroke when it's hot, remember to add clothes when it's cold, and besides, dad is no longer drunk, and can talk to me kindlyKnowing that I care about my current situation, I am very content.

In my grandfather's words, this is also what my grandma wants to see the most, family harmony, so that everything can be prosperous.

"When will I drive back tomorrow?"

"I'll be home at about one or two o'clock......"

"Oh, I asked someone to buy back the authentic local pork leg from the countryside, the meat is fragrant, specially bought for you, your mother has been preparing since the day before yesterday, saying that you want to make sixteen dishes, you are now a capable person, these relatives in the family know that you want to come back for the New Year to join in the fun, but you can rest assured, I have refused, I want to spend the New Year with our own family, your aunt, Angel and I and your mother and your grandfather, I am afraid of you after the people, this year is very tired, the New Year, so good to relax and relax the spirit."

I tugged at the corners of my mouth, "Dad, don't let my mother be too lucky, don't cook so many dishes on Chinese New Year's Eve, you can't eat it." ”

"It's okay, it should be, our family hasn't been lively for a long time, I used to think about Xiaobao, this year my attention has also shifted, and now I have put it down, our family should also be lively and lively for a New Year, you say yes."

I smiled, "Hmm. ”

"Qiaoqiao, don't worry, I've finished teaching her on your aunt's side, and Anqi, I will never allow them to say something useless at the dinner table, this time, we will be happy, ah."

It's false to say that my heart is not warm, this is my father, no matter how weak my feelings are, it is also my father.

"Come back early, Jojo, Dad...... I miss you a lot. ”

"Hmmm......"

"Your mother misses you too, always talking about you, I know that the red underwear you bought for you in your natal year is good-looking, and the red socks and red belt are all ready for you, just take it out and take a look at it if you have nothing to do, and say that you can be prosperous at the age of twenty-four, you will definitely like it, Qiaoqiao, bring your grandfather back early."

"Okay."

Put down the phone, I pulled the tissue and wiped the corners of my eyes, sometimes I will be inexplicably energetic, I don't know what's wrong, is this a good thing, everyone is finally and Meimei, no longer quarrelling, how good.

'Bell bell bell'

The phone rang again, I took a deep breath and picked it up to take a look, this time it was a strange number.

"Hey, hello."

"Qiaoqiao, it's me, I'm your Uncle Zhuo."

Uncle Zhuo? My brain was sluggish, and I held it for a second or two before I felt like I was powering up, "Oh, hello Uncle Zhuo! ”

"Are you busy now, I didn't bother you, are you going back to Anton now?"

"No, I'll be back tomorrow."

"Oh, that's good, it's convenient to come out and meet......"
