A bowl of drinks for money is really not expensive, although this opening means that acquaintances take care of it, but Zhang Sijiu does not have any psychological burden, and accepts the money with peace of mind.

Such calmness attracted Zhou Shi to take another look.

Zhang Sijiu smiled back with a proper smile.

Zhou and Yang Yuanding still had to go to meet with Yang County Ling and his party, so they didn't stay long, drank the water, and left.

Zhang Sijiu wanted to see the stall, so she even declined Yang Yuanding's invitation to watch the god worship ceremony.

In fact, under the big willow tree, Zhang Sijiu can also see the situation from a distance, and he has no myopic eyes, so he can see it clearly.

The ritual attracted people from the neighborhood to watch.

Even many people in the county came to see the excitement: after all, a small county town rarely has big things happening, so such excitement is rare. Idle is also idle, take a look, you can blow the cow with friends for a long time after tea and dinner.

Therefore, today's ferry here can be said to be three layers inside and three layers outside.

Zhang Sijiu saw it in his eyes and regretted it in his heart: the preparation is still not enough! At this time, you should sell some small snacks or something, those with children, but the main consumer!

It's just that if the opportunity is missed, it is missed, and she quickly left it behind.

The ritual of sacrificing to the gods is actually not complicated, the most important thing is that Yang County Ling personally recites the written prayers, and then burns incense and kowtows to worship heaven and earth, and the river god.

Not only did they prepare a pig's head, a whole chicken, and an entire duck, but also prepared a fresh big rooster, cut off their necks on the spot, and threw them into the river water as a sacrifice to the river god.

Then a group of people watched as the chicken, which was not yet dead, struggled in the river for a long time, and finally fluttered and sank.

The expression is also extraordinarily solemn.

Even many elderly people knelt down and chanted words in their mouths.

Zhang Sijiu looked at it, felt novel, and also felt creepy.

At this moment, Zhang Sijiu was extremely clear about what kind of social environment she came to.

She pursed her lips and looked at them for a moment, then withdrew her gaze.

And the reaction similar to Zhang Sijiu was Yang Yuanding.

Yang Yuanding stared at the place where the chicken sank, and there was a trace of confusion on his face.

However, everyone else paid attention to the ritual of sacrificing to the gods, so only Yang Yuanzhang noticed the strangeness of his younger brother.

Yang Yuanzhang gently covered Yang Yuanding's eyes with his hand, not letting him look at the river again, and said more quietly and gently: "Don't look, don't think, calm down, don't be afraid." It's all right. My mom and dad and I were here. ”

Losing his vision all of a sudden, Yang Yuanding was still stunned for a moment, blinked his eyes, and couldn't react very well.

However, after hearing Yang Yuanzhang's words, his originally somewhat dazed heart was slowly moistened by that little warmth, and his mind gradually became clearer.

Knowing that Yang Yuanzhang probably misunderstood, Yang Yuanding didn't explain, just lowered his head and said in a muffled voice: "I want to go to Si Jiu." ”

The scene just now had too much impact on him, and he had a lot of thoughts and wanted to find someone to share it with.

And in the world, there is obviously no more suitable person than Zhang Sijiu.

Yang Yuanzhang responded, and then went to talk to Zhou, and took Yang Yuanding to the big willow tree.

Yang Yuanding didn't want Yang Yuanzhang to be there, so he pushed him: "Big brother doesn't have to follow." I've recovered. Drink a sip and I'll go to you in a moment. ”

So Yang Yuanzhang looked at Yang Yuanding for two seconds, then nodded, and really stopped.

Yang Yuanding didn't dare to look at Yang Yuanzhang, lowered his head, and rushed to Zhang Sijiu's side in three steps and two steps.

Yang Yuanzhang didn't stand still and wait, only stood for about three or four seconds, and then he turned around and returned to Zhou and Yang Xianling.

Yang Yuanding's matter is like a small wave, which seems to be churning, but it is actually inconspicuous, and few people have noticed it at all.

However, Yang Yuanding suddenly came over, still looking like this, and Zhang Sijiu guessed why at once.

She scooped a bowl of water to Yang Yuanding, and said slowly: "What are you afraid of?" If you don't say it, I don't say it, no one knows. Moreover, your father and brother love you and will not do anything to you. ”

Yang Yuanding was about to say a thousand words, but he choked up: ...... Well, it's uncomfortable.

Zhang Sijiu looked at him like that, but was amused, "You don't need to think about it so much." What others think and do has never been to do with us. We just have to think about what we want to do. ”

No matter what the era, not everyone is the same, is it?

Yang Yuanding scratched his head, feeling like he was about to explode. But it seems that the words that I didn't say were meaningless to say at this time, but it seemed hypocritical.

In the end, he only held back one sentence: "It's a little scary to think about it." And the people and environment here are really ...... The gap is too big. ”

There had never been a moment when he had realized so clearly that he didn't belong here.

Zhang Sijiu looked at Yang Yuanding quietly, and only asked three questions: "Then can you still go back?" If you can't go back, are you going to die? Or just eat and wait for death? ”

Yang Yuanding choked up instantly: "That must not be able to die." It's not okay to eat and wait to die—"

He was concerned: "Maybe you don't believe it, I'm also a scholar." I was inspired to do something big! ”

"It's the same everywhere." Zhang Sijiu's words were concise: "If I change places, I can still treat diseases and save people." If you change places, you can still do a great job. ”

Yang Yuanding was stunned, and suddenly felt as if he had found the wrong person to confide in: "Don't you feel like me?" Aren't you a little dazed and unaccustomed? ”

Zhang Sijiu looked at Yang Yuanding's eyes and sighed faintly: "If you want to think about life, it is recommended that you change each meal to coarse grain porridge, and don't eat any meat and oil and water to try." ”

But if you have this kind of leisure to think about life and ponder things that have no meaning, it is purely that life is too comfortable.

In addition to real depression, most people's so-called depression is entirely due to the fact that life is too comfortable, so that a lot of leisure is born.

People are idle, and their hearts are idle.

When you get busy, many problems can actually be solved.

This is the sincere advice given by Dr. Zhang.

Yang Yuanding had completely lost his temper, he looked at Zhang Sijiu dejectedly, "The joys and sorrows of human beings are not the same. ”

Zhang Sijiu's face was expressionless: "Unless our wealth can be connected, our joys and sorrows will never be connected." ”

Yang Yuanding: ...... Nothing to refute?

He drank the water in one go, put down the bowl, and rolled up his sleeves: "Forget it, I'll help you work." You're right, if you find something to do, you won't have time to think about it. I can't go back anyway, so it's useless to think about it. ”

When he said this, he didn't realize that he had a sense of tragedy and grandeur of resignation.

Zhang Sijiu squinted at Yang Yuanding: I'm afraid that this kid still thought it was a game before, and he didn't accept it from the bottom of his heart?
