All the way to the east
On that day, without a hint or a trace worth pondering, Zhou Wen's Fa Xiaowang came to Shanghai to work, and then came to the school to find Zhou Wen with a face full of vicissitudes, as if he had aged dozens of years overnight.
"Brother Wen, how are you doing?" Wang Lai looked at Zhou Wen shyly.
Zhou Wen looked at the dusty boy in front of him, and his mouth was indescribably bitter. He really couldn't imagine that the immature baby had become the mature man in front of him.
"Wang, why did you come to Shanghai?" Zhou Wen touched this junior who was a head shorter than him.
"Brother Wen, I'm ......" Wang Lai lowered his head, half-smiled and half-silently said the vicissitudes of the restaurant.
That night, Wang Lai came home with his schoolbag as before, and when he opened the door, he suddenly noticed a noise in the house, and when he was about to run out to call someone, he suddenly heard his father's voice.
So he peeked through the crack in the door, and saw his father and another strange woman making love naked on the table. Wang Lai's face was immediately hot, but he was actually very angry in his heart. But the fear in his heart still prevailed, and he was about to slip out, but he bumped into his mother head-on.
"Don't you kid have eyes? Running around blindly! Wang Lai's mother scolded for a word or two, and then walked into the house.
"Mom, don't go!" Before the king could finish speaking, the door of his house opened.
Of course, the next scene was fully watched by Wang Lai's mother, saying that it was too late and that was fast, but unfortunately Wang Lai's mother's illness recurred, so Wang Lai looked at his mother like crazy like two naked people in front of him and bit it, and the three of them fought like crazy.
And I don't know if it's because of a weak heart, Wang Lai's father, as a strong man, is always at a disadvantage.
Often in times of misfortune, death comes so suddenly.
Wang Lai's mother who had a relapse of mental illness didn't know where to pick up a kitchen knife, and cut Wang Lai's father like she usually chopped ribs, and later was quietly taken away by death due to ineffective rescue. When the king saw all this outside the door, his heart was completely dead.
He couldn't even shout "Dad" at that time, and his crotch was wet at that time.
Wang Lai was just stunned and motionless, or he had fainted with fright.
To this day, he will never forget the sight of his father's eyes wide open and a pool of blood.
Later, when the police came, Wang Lai's mother was taken into a mental hospital, and his father's funeral was only his relatives and neighbors who helped take care of it, and the other relatives did not come because they were afraid that Wang Laima, who might come suddenly.
In one day, many joys and sorrows were staged in turn, and Wang Lai never understood that the original family that was so complete would be so broken when it was torn apart.
At that time, Wang Lai thought that all this was an illusion, and knelt in front of his father's portrait for three days and three nights and dared to admit that it was true, until he slapped himself a few times and found that it hurt terribly, so he howled and cried, crying heartbreakingly, crying darkly.
Later, he really didn't have the strength to cry, and his throat burst at that moment, and until now he is still that broken throat, as terrifying as a smoke voice. Of course, it was at that time that he understood that everything should be on his own.
He was only twelve years old at the time, just like the men who went out to work in the town, carrying a blue and white nylon bag, with a few pitiful clothes, and even his junior high school uniform, he walked out of Lotus Town, all the way to the east, he heard the adults say that the east can make money, he didn't expect to be able to make money at that time, but maybe he felt that the people in the town were going in that direction, and they didn't feel lonely.
He slept in the open all the way, in parks, on bridges, and even on the streets. He also found a job as a waiter in a restaurant, but because of his naivety at that time, he got into trouble with the boss because of the boss's fraud, and in the end, not only did he not get his salary, but even his luggage was thrown into the stinking ditch. So he had to walk down the road penniless, not even with his luggage. However, after experiencing so much cruelty, he is no longer as confused as he was at the beginning, crying alone in the night, maybe his mentality has become better, so he walked on the dock with a smile on his face.
That night, he fell asleep on the dock with his back against the stone pier and his feet together. When he woke up in the early morning of the next day, he found that the water by the river had overflowed his instep, so he jumped up from the water with a bang, "Damn, I was scared to death!" "It seems that I still have palpitations.
Wang Lai walked awkwardly from the small Lotus Town to the east, the shoes on his face became more and more tattered, and the wind and frost on his face became heavier and heavier, but it seemed that only the pace was still firmly walking eastward. It seems that the monk who came from the Tang Dynasty in the East and went to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, Wang Lai wanted to go east, as if that was his paradise. But it seems to be his hunch, when he walked to the area of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, he met many adults in the town, and they received Wang Lai like a guest of honor.
Later, some villagers even looked for jobs for Wang Lai, and almost introduced their daughters-in-law. Because they all sympathized with the child in front of them, perhaps out of sympathy.
Wang Lai originally wanted to go east, but when he heard from the adults that he had reached the easternmost point, he gave up and settled down after listening to the arrangement of an adult.
Later, when I was having dinner with adults, I heard that Zhou Wen was studying in Shanghai University, so I ran over to find his Brother Wenwen. Perhaps, the whole world can speak, and it is Brother Wenwen.
"Come, king, you have suffered." After hearing this, the corners of Zhou Wen's eyes couldn't help but get wet.
"Oh, it's okay, tell me about college life, I didn't even go to high school." After Wang finished speaking, he pulled Zhou Wen to the school.
Zhou Wen wiped away his tears, and then happily pulled Wang Lai to tour his beautiful campus.
"Wang, let's make a little red (campus bus, similar to a sightseeing bus, because it is painted with red paint, so it is called Xiaohong by students)!"
"Okay!"
In this way, the two of them began to laugh when they were reunited after a long absence. Zhou Wen's mood at that time was mixed. But he vowed to entertain the guest from afar.
Because he came from afar, he is really wrapped in the memories of his hometown, as well as the scenery along the way, giving people the taste of missing.
"Wow, it's good to go to college!" Wang Lai looked at this ivory tower-like campus with envy on his face, and his reluctant eyes kept rolling.
"Then you come to college!" Zhou Wen patted Wang Lai on the shoulder.
"I don't have that courage anymore, hey," Wang Lai sighed.
Seeing this, Zhou Wen didn't continue to speak, was silent for a while, and then said to the king: "Shall we go and eat Mao Cai?" I invite you! ”
"Okay!" Wang Lai also looked happy.
But when it was time to settle the bill, Wang Lai argued with Zhou Wen, because Wang Lai insisted on him to give money.
"You are a college student, what money do you have, I invite you!"
"Come, didn't you say yes, I'll invite you to dinner?"
………
Later, Zhou Wen really couldn't resist the stubborn Wang Lai, so he was pressed on the table, and then Wang Lai ran over to settle the account.
Zhou Wen once thought that Shunzi was gone, so the friendship also died.
Unexpectedly, Wang Lai, a former little child, became his New Year's friend.
It's just that this friend of his, a hundred times a thousand times stronger than him. Because Wang Lai came from licking blood from the complexity of society, there was almost nothing left to break him.
"Later, my mother sobered up a year later, and asked me to go back from time to time, and she has been urging me for the past few years!" Wang Lai said, holding a ham.
"Did she come out then?" Zhou Wen asked.
"She didn't want to come out, but the police said she was cured and forced her out of the mental hospital." And when the king said this, his face did not change.
"Maybe she's lonely... Do you dare to go back? Zhou Wen said cautiously.
"I'm going to go back to take care of her as soon as I make enough money, after all, she's still my mother." Wang Lai paused, and said with a straight face.
"What are you going to do when you go back, we don't make money in that town." Zhou Wen said worriedly.
"Hehe, I'm going to go back to raising pigs!" The king laughed.
"I'll go, don't be funny!" Zhou Wen thought that Wang Lai was joking at that time, but he didn't expect that Wang Lai would really go back to raise pigs later, raise pigs all over the mountains, and become a small local tycoon.
After Zhou Wen said goodbye to Wang Lai later, he suddenly became a little sad, on the one hand, it was for Wang Lai, and on the other hand, Wang Lai's arrival was like a trigger, which reminded Zhou Wen of a lot of memories about Lotus Town. Those good times gave Zhou Wen a drunken contemplation.
Zhou Wen walked alone on the street, and unconsciously came to the door of a café, and suddenly there was a familiar sound of the piano from inside, as if he had heard it somewhere, but it was a little different from before.
Zhou Wen wanted to figure it out, just like walking inside a bar, there were noisy people inside, but the sound of the piano was still so loud, but maybe Zhou Wen was the only one in the whole bar who paid attention to the sound of the piano, so he felt that the sound was a little loud.
He still walked towards the place where the piano sounded, and what he saw at a glance was ......
Pick clean, pick clean!
How could I have met you here!
How could I meet you here!
How could I still meet you!
Your appearance hasn't changed, and your eyes are still as charming as they are.
The music at your fingertips is still like flowing water, playing the most beautiful sound in the world.
"Caijie!" Zhou Wen smiled and greeted the girl in front of him who was immersed in music.
"Zhou Wen..."Cai Jie raised her head and saw the boy she hadn't seen for a long time.
At this moment, neither of them had any more words, nor did they want to say more. Perhaps only the names of each other can make these two lonely souls embrace the warmest moment.
At that moment, they forgot the reason for their separation, just to reunite and continue to outline the reason for continuing.
