Chapter 44: Witnessing Indifference
Today, Yang Rui's parents were really happy, and they went out with a grin.
They were already happy to know that the score had been admitted, but they were still a little unsteady when they didn't know that they had been admitted and didn't receive the letter. Now that the admission letter of Fukagawa University is finally final, his parents are naturally happier than Yang Rui.
Yang Guoming, the father who once comforted Yang Rui and said that he couldn't be admitted to a vocational school in college, now happily said that he was a crow's mouth with a counterproductive effect. For them, it is already a very good and honorable thing for their son to be admitted to university, and they do not expect him to be admitted to the top few universities in China. On the contrary, the city's universities have no sense of distance, either physically or psychologically.
Seeing his parents so happy, Yang Rui was also in a good mood, and he decided to go to Shenzhen University to play first and understand the environment first.
Changing to the bus and coming to the gate of Shenda, Yang Rui became excited, and said secretly in his heart: Beautiful Sister Bei Zhen, I'm coming! Countless college beauties, I'm here! can't be popular with thousands of girls, Lao Tzu vows not to graduate!
With a hint of silver, Yang Rui walked into the campus of Shenzhen University, of course, he didn't visit the buildings, his eyes were mainly on searching for college girls, to see if it was a beautiful woman like a cloud or a group of dinosaurs. Of course, he is not afraid of Tang Yuling's "good wishes", the only girl he knows is a beauty, and the only girl he knows who is newly admitted to Shenzhen University is also a beauty, judging from this odds, it must be a beautiful woman.
It's still a holiday, and there are still some students in the school, but it's not many, and it's completely free, and there aren't many girls that Yang Rui can see. This is also his observation, and after walking inside, he came to the conclusion that there are 12 out of 10 beauties, 35 dinosaurs in groups, and more than half of the average! The best beauty, not seen.
This makes Yang Rui feel a little sorry, but think about it, how can the stunning beauties stay in the school during the holidays? After the start of school, there will naturally be more beauties and more stunning colors! What's more, there are new students like me.
After coming out of Shenzhen University, Yang Rui was used to riding a bicycle, and it took a lot of time to walk, and he felt a little tired. He came to the opposite side, ready to find a sweet water shop to rest.
There's a small restaurant called "Youfu", which, judging from the door, seems to sell wontons (wontons) and sweet soup.
"Boss, one wonton, one more sugar water."
The owner of the shop is a man in his forties, "What do you want?" ”
Yang Rui looked at it and ordered one casually: "Date horseshoe." ”
"Okay."
The boss quickly brought a bowl of candied date horseshoe syrup from the freezer and gave him a wonton.
The store is not very big, Yang Rui is sitting at the door, he is drinking sugar water, and he unexpectedly sees a familiar figure.
Not far outside is a bus stop, bustling with people coming and going, there are newsstands, there are small vendors, and the best place to sit is an old man who shines shoes.
This old man Yang Rui has known him since he was a child, although he doesn't know where he lives, but he often scrubs around his house, it seems that his name is Hao Xiaotong, and everyone calls him Old Man Hao. I heard my mother say that it was a veteran soldier from the time of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, who was injured on the battlefield and could not have children, so he had no children, and when he was old, he had to earn a living by himself. I don't know if the political axe doesn't have a pension, or it's not enough, and I can't do anything when I'm old, but I just shine my shoes all year round.
Yang Rui saw that Hao Xiaotong's position was good, and his business was also good. A lot of people who go out have dirty shoes, and they are impatient waiting for the car, and they don't mind spending a dollar to shine his shoes.
Yang Rui recognized Old Man Hao, but the old man didn't recognize him, and he didn't have much chance to let the old man scrub before. When his wonton came up, he was eating and thinking about whether to take care of Old Man Hao's business later. -- A man like this would rather be self-sufficient, and the best you can do to him is to make him work in exchange for what he gets.
Before Yang Rui finished eating, two chengguan on motorcycles came from afar. The stall holders were all on guard, their things were all on the tricycles, whispered hello, and they all pedaled the tricycles to the nearest alley.
When the two chengguan came to the bus stop, they spat on the back of the hawker fleeing in the wilderness, with a look of disdain and obvious pride. It costs only a few hundred yuan to catch one, and when there are many people, they enjoy this kind of prestige that makes others flee when they hear the wind.
Old man Hao is seventy or eighty, even if he has time to pack up his shoeshine tools, he doesn't have the strength to run. What's more, there was another person who was shining shoes, and he could only continue to shine his shoes silently, speeding up.
"Old man! Shine your shoes and go to other places, you can't set up stalls here, which will affect the city's appearance! In front of the old man Hao, a city manager reprimanded him with disgust.
The old man who can't even run can not win, naturally has no oil and water, and for this kind of person, the city managers are too lazy to catch it. Withhold his stuff? It's not worth a few dollars, and no one will come to redeem it; If the person who touched him accidentally fell, he might have carried his back, and he would be in trouble.
"Hear me! Hurry up! Don't shine your shoes here! The chengguan pulled his face and shouted, for such an old man, he could only rush.
Old man Hao had a wrinkled old face, and he smiled bitterly: "Okay, I'll leave after wiping this......"
The man had already rubbed almost, and the last few strokes would be fine.
The chengguan was on the side, and the customer was also a little unnatural, and when he saw the bus he was waiting for coming, his eyes lit up, and he immediately said: "I won't delay you to clean up, I won't wipe it!" ”
As he spoke, he walked away, turned around and walked briskly into the bus he was going to sit in.
"Don't be here! The old immortal has no consciousness at all, and he still comes out to affect the city's appearance when he is seventy or eighty. The chengguan muttered and left with another chengguan.
Old man Hao saw that the customer took the opportunity to leave like this, stingy with a dollar, and he smiled bitterly with a shoeshine cloth.
The people at the bus stop were still bustling, getting on the bus, getting off, and waiting for the bus, and no one looked at Old Man Hao.
Yang Rui looked very depressed, and saw that the veterans of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, for the sake of a dollar of labor income, did not say anything, and had to bow their heads to the indifference of reality, which made him a little excited.
And that customer made Yang Rui angry! He can accept the grandfather level Hao Lao Man to shine the shoes of young people, and the opportunity to work is still respect for Hao Lao Man, which is different from the concept of help and charity. But even the income of such an old man's labor, which is only half of the starting price of the bus, has to be relied on and not given, it can only be said that he is shameless!
