After Lin Xu returned home, he unexpectedly saw that there were many people gathered in the living room at home, so he naturally came to his father Lin Lang to write Spring Festival couplets. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info people who come to write Spring Festival couplets every year always have to last until Chinese New Year's Eve.

Although it is said to be "twenty-nine, the post is upside down", some people may have something to do, so they often delay until the thirtieth day to come to Lin Lang to write, and then go back to catch up with the pasting before dark. Every year, more or less, there are always one or two things that are delayed and late.

Of course, there are also those who come early, some bring paper before twenty-five, or twenty-five. However, usually when there are the most people, they are still concentrated in the three days of the twenty-sixth, twenty-seventh, and twenty-eighth, and by the twenty-nineth, there are many fewer people.

Seeing that there were still many people in the family, Lin Xu couldn't help frowning slightly and sighing. When he was young, he really couldn't figure out why his father wrote Spring Festival couplets for free every year. Not to mention the hard work, but also to pay some ink and tea. Every few days before the Chinese New Year, it always makes him annoying to stay at home. People come and go, noisy and noisy, and smoke fills the hall.

People who love to be lively may like this environment very much, and only think that the more people there are, the better the more lively they are. But for a person like Lin Xu who loves to be quiet and alone, this kind of environment can only make him bored and incompatible with it. I remember when he was young, he lost his temper with his parents and complained about it. But because he was still young at the time, his parents just coaxed him and didn't explain much.

Later, he gradually got used to it, and also learned to try not to stay at home these days, and to hide outside quietly. And it wasn't until he entered junior high school, getting older and learning more knowledge, that he gradually understood his father's intention in doing this in the past two years.

My father wrote Spring Festival couplets for free, and he also worked hard to compensate for some writing ink and tea for hospitality, which is obviously selling favors.

Lin Lang is the accountant of the village, and he is also a village cadre. But in this kind of small village, especially Guancun, where almost all the people in the village have the surname Guan, and all families are more or less related to each other, it is really a village of a clan, and the people in the village actually don't take the village cadres too seriously. Don't look at the branch secretary and village head, sometimes when you encounter something, the village people don't reason with you, so they will talk about your relatives by seniority, and some don't look at the young, but the seniority is big, and they are still the elders of the branch secretary and the village head, but this tells them what to do.

It's completely public, the villagers say that you don't show affection, it's not good to be too selfish, and some policies issued by the top are also not allowed to be selfish and must be implemented. Therefore, the cadres in the village do not rely on the power in their hands many times, but rely on the relationship and affection of the people in the village. To put it bluntly, it depends on whether people give you this face.

Lin Lang's position in the village committee is not high, and he is still a foreigner in Guancun, so it is more difficult than others to do something. So he is always kind to people everywhere in the village and makes friends with people. This is a free way to write Spring Festival couplets to the villagers every year, which is a means to make good friends with the villagers and sell favors. He has been an accountant for more than ten years, and he is respected in the village and has a good reputation, so it can be said that it has a lot to do with this.

In fact, not only Lin Lang, but Lin Xu's grandfather and great-grandfather have been like this for generations. Of course, they don't rely on writing Spring Festival couplets, they have their own practices. The methods are different, but the purpose is the same. As a migrant household and a unique family in the village, it naturally takes a lot of effort to not be excluded by people with the same surname in the village. And their efforts are obviously very effective, and to this day, their Lin family has not only taken firm roots in Guancun, but also has a considerable status in the village.

But when it came to Lin Xu, it was different. Not only did he not inherit the fine tradition of three generations, but he also completely lost one by one, almost the other way around. doesn't say anything about making friends with people, he basically doesn't make friends with people at all. Although by now, their Lin family has completely gained a firm foothold in Guancun, and there is no need to look up to the snorts of most of the villagers, but the fine traditions that have always been maintained should still be maintained. And Lin Xu's way of getting along with people is completely abnormal, just for his personal future, he has to change. Therefore, the family reminded him from time to time and taught him to have more contact with people and talk more. How to behave with others, courtesy, and so on.

But although Lin Xu listened to it in his ears, and when he listened to it, he looked like he was being taught, but after that, he still did what he wanted, and there was not much change. In fact, most of the truths that his family told him, he also understood in his heart. Even what many family members didn't talk about, he could find and understand through his own observations. But he just didn't want to do it.

For this village that grew up and raised him, Lin Xu actually didn't like it very much in his heart. He doesn't like the way the villagers get along, he doesn't like the villagers always greeting people with a smile and asking "have you eaten", he doesn't like that when they meet with the same surname, they always love to rank their relatives and call each other this and that, he doesn't like the faint exclusion and isolation of his classmates when he first went to school, and he doesn't like his father to write Spring Festival couplets for free year after year in order to befriend these villagers, and he doesn't like .........

He really didn't like this village.

He had always had a thought in his heart that he had never told anyone, that is, one day, he would have to leave the village, and then take his parents and family with him, and never have to come back. Since then, he has forgotten that this is his hometown.

He thought that his great-grandfather and his grandfather's generation were thinking about how to gain a firm foothold in this village, take root, and settle down and become Guancun people. Therefore, everywhere is thinking about how to integrate into this village, be kind to others, and make good friends. The father's approach looks no different from theirs.

But Lin Xu thought that maybe his father also wanted to get out of this village when he was young. If his father had been admitted to college that year, he thought that his father might have made a change. It's a pity that reality slowed down his father's footsteps and pulled him back to this village, and then he had to continue to follow the old path of his father and grandfather.

Lin Xu didn't want to do this, all he had been thinking about was to go out and get out of here. No matter what difficulties and obstacles he encounters, he will never give up halfway. One day, he will definitely leave and never come back.

Listening to the noisy voices in the living room and looking at the smoke wafting out of the open window through the curtain, Lin Xu didn't want to go in at all. He turned around and went up to the roof of the bungalow again, and then walked straight to the side adjacent to the small temple.

As soon as he stepped on the brick fence, he was lucky enough to see the foothold below, and jumped directly from the roof of the bungalow and fell into the temple.
