Rebirth and daily cultivation

On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, at 8:30 in the morning, the winter sunshine filled the river dam.

Zhang Ruyun wiped his motorcycle at the door again. He dipped a rag in warm water and wiped it little by little, very seriously. However, when he thought of his girlfriend who was drifting away, the sadness on his face could not be concealed.

The little cotton-padded jacket Tongtong whispered to Jiang Ning, "He seems to be about to cry."

Jiang Ning held a porcelain bowl with candied dates and rice porridge in his hand. He took a sip and said, "A man doesn't cry, but he's just not sad yet."

The corners of Zhang Ruyun's mouth twitched, and he looked away from him.

He was dissatisfied: 'I have a girlfriend who I hold hands with every day. What do you, Jiang Ning, have? You are with Xue Yuantong every day. What can she, a little girl, do for you? ’

Yes, Zhang Ruyun has a girlfriend.

Chu Chu, who was dressed in a plain down jacket, walked out of the house. She held two large homemade steamed buns in her hands. The buns were very white, but they pale in comparison to Xue Chuchu's white and pink hands.

"Eat some steamed buns, don't just drink porridge." Xue Chuchu said.

Jiang Ning said: "The porridge you cook is indeed delicious. There is a lot of rice soup to quench your thirst."

Xue Chuchu just smiled lightly after hearing this. Jiang Ning is always like this. Although she rarely works, she always praises her and praises her. She clearly sees clearly, but every time she hears it, she still feels happy from the bottom of her heart. .

Probably because of her childhood environment, she lacked a sense of recognition.

Jiang Ning took a bite of the bun and looked sideways at Zhang Ruyun.

Xue Yuantong said in his heart: "Huh, stinky Jiang Ning is so childish." ’

Zhang Ruyun was numb.

"Hey, I'm meeting my girlfriend for dinner today, let her treat me!" Zhang Ruyun suddenly said.

The damn desire to win made him take out his mobile phone and make a WeChat call to his girlfriend.

The call was answered quickly.

Zhang Ruyun's voice became gentle in an instant, and he asked caringly: "Ayue, have you gotten up?"

A girl's voice came from the receiver: "Brother Yun, you're up, where are you?"

Zhang Ruyun immediately turned on the speakerphone and called Jiang Ning and the others as if to show off.

As a result, while chatting, Ah Yue said that her blind date gave her a gold bracelet.

Zhang Ruyun's expression suddenly changed.

When he was young, he was both pure and possessive about love. He was flammable and angry. Zhang Ruyun's voice suddenly rose: "Ah Yue, I really don't understand. He gave you a gift, why did you accept it?"

Ah Yue: "I don't know. When he gave it, it was a handbag. I opened the bag and found out that it was Chow Tai Fook's bracelet."

Zhang Ruyun: "It's not a question of whether it's a bag or not. If you don't like it, why should you accept other people's gifts?"

"Why are you like this?"

"If it were me, I would refuse any gift."

He was extremely excited and kept using sharp words to accuse Ah Yue of his mistakes.

Ah Yue couldn't bear what she said, and aroused her sense of resistance: "If you don't answer, does that mean I can't answer? Why should I be the same as you? Why should I stand in your perspective? I think it's fine. What comes and goes , no problem!”

Zhang Ruyun's cell phone was shaking, as if he was ill: "Do you know what it means to accept a gift? What?"

Xue Yuantong, who was watching the show, whispered to Jiang Ning: "You can't accept gifts randomly. The corrupt leaders don't dare to take things without doing anything."

Jiang Ning gave her a thumbs up.

Xue Yuantong crossed her arms, huh, she understood this truth a long time ago. When Jiang Ning first moved here, he would ride with her on the way to school, but she wouldn't pay attention to him at all, because that would be a debt of gratitude.

She is always cool and never bothers others.

Just now…

The young couple had a fierce quarrel, and Ah Yue added fuel to the fire: "My mother even asked me to go have a meal with him today."

Zhang Ruyun almost exploded: "A man and a woman, do you think it's appropriate for you to go out to eat?"

Ah Yue: "I'm not you. I won't cross the line. Just go. He and I are just friends."

After saying this, Ah Yue hung up the WeChat call.

When Zhang Ruyun called again, he could no longer get through.

He looked at the phone and murmured: "Why? Why does a person become so fast?"

I remember that we met and knew each other in school. At that time, Ah Yue was very simple. Although her life was very simple, they could work together. As a distinguished member of the student union, Zhang Ruyun would always take her to work part-time together and imagine a bright future together.

But now, why is it that the family just introduced a blind date, and why are they completely different from now on?

His rules, which were as heavy as a rock, turned out to be as light as water for Ah Yue.

The truth is ever-changing.

Zhang Ruyun laughed miserably and laughed at himself: "Couples are not as good as friends, haha, what can I do?"

Jiang Ning ate steamed buns and drank porridge, and said, "If you pretend not to know, the three of you will be in peace."

Zhang Ruyun was devastated and heartbroken: "But how can I pretend not to know?"

Xue Yuantong made a suggestion: "Then you also become friends with her and ask her if you can go to dinner too."

Zhang Ruyun's silence was deafening.

Xue Chuchu cursed: "It's a good move to stop losses and buy shares in time." ’

…

Nine o'clock in the morning.

Jiang Ning was still playing at the door. He sat on the small bench and played chess with Xue Yuantong.

Near the chessboard, Dongdong put on mature clothes and looked like an adult. He stood on the ground, looking to the west, watching for safety.

Jiang Ning said: "Dongdong, you have been promoted and have a salary increase. As the vice president of the strawberry greenhouse, you will work hard in the future!"

Xue Yuantong said: "The future is promising."

Dongdong grinned and showed a kind smile.

Dongdong was not promoted for no reason. One of the reasons was that Xue Yuantong boasted in the group last night, and Tang Jing told Huang Yuzhu.

Huang Yuzhu was really desperate. He realized that his brother, who was neglected by discipline, had completely gone astray. If he was not corrected, he would be completely finished in the future.

After consulting Xue Yuantong, he found that Heba could not only work and study, but also had a respected teacher!

It can not only exercise and cultivate one's character, but also have a teacher to teach and learn, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.

Huang Yuzhu did not hesitate for too long and made up his mind to send his brother to Heba for further study.

And this morning was the day when Huang Yuzhu sent his brother here.

The second reason was that Jiang Ning asked Dongdong to work, and the children who were originally bullied by Dongdong had something to rely on. At first, they were just supervisors, but later they began to beat and scold Dongdong and bully Dongdong, and they turned into evil dragons.

The education of children is really interesting... But Jiang Ning thought about it, isn't the world of adults the same?

Time passed by minute by minute.

The roar of a motorcycle broke into the territory of the river dam.

Jiang Ning had just finished playing chess. Facing his friend who often ate with him in his previous life, he stood up and greeted: "Yuzhu, you are here."

Huang Yuzhu got off the motorcycle and said honestly: "Have you eaten?"

At the same time, a man who looked more than 40 years old and more honest smiled at Jiang Ning and humbly took out a cigarette and handed it to him.

Jiang Ning waved his hand and said hello uncle.

Then, Huang Guan took a half-grown child and brought him to Jiang Ning: "This is my son, Xingxing, come and say hello."

The little boy raised his face, with no expression, and said nothing.

"Look at this child." Huang Guan frowned.

Jiang Ning didn't mind: "The child is still young."

He waved and called Dongdong over, "Introduce him a job."

Dongdong was a veteran worker in the strawberry garden after all, and he said, "Working in our strawberry garden, you get three meals a day, and every meal has meat!"

He shook his strong arms, "I'm only 9 years old this year!"

When he said this, Huang Guan and Huang Yuzhu, father and son, took a breath of cold air, looking at Dongdong, who looked like a calf, and asked, "You tell me, he's only nine years old?"

"Not only can you eat, you can also eat strawberries. You know strawberries, greenhouse strawberries, dozens of yuan a pound!" Dongdong introduced passionately.

As a rough man who does hard labor, Huang Guan knows that strawberries are expensive in winter, and his family is reluctant to buy them.

'Such a young child, not only can he eat, but he can also eat strawberries, Xingxing will definitely like it, and the place is remote, and there is no Internet cafe. 'Huang Guan thought more and more about it.

Jiang Ning coughed lightly.

Dongdong immediately said: "Not only can I work and eat well, but I can also learn from Teacher Qian!"

At this time, Teacher Qian, who looked like a decent person next door, walked out of the door. He stood in the morning sun in the east, radiant with brilliance, and chanted a poem: "Last night the Big Dipper returned to the north, and today the year started in the east. I am old enough to be an official, but I still worry about farming without salary."

Xue Yuantong praised: "Good poem, good poem, good poem!"

It was obviously a sincere compliment, but Teacher Qian felt that she was being weird. This girl has become sinister!

When Huang Guan saw Teacher Qian's style of a cultured person, he was immediately excited. He could work and be supervised by a teacher. Perfect!

Look at this nine-year-old boy in front of him. He is just like an adult, so mature and good at dealing with people!

Huang Guan immediately urged his son to work hard.

In fact, there is still a salary for working in the strawberry garden. Dongdong's salary is 150 yuan. Jiang Ning works very hard as an intermediary, so he took 149 yuan, and Dongdong got 1 yuan a day.

For a newbie like Xingxing, Jiang Ning set the price at 80 yuan, and he took 79.5 yuan, leaving 50 cents as a salary increase for Dongdong to be promoted to deputy general manager of the greenhouse, so Xingxing only had zero yuan.

But it's not good to just do this, it will make Dongdong degenerate.

Xue Yuantong proposed a competition mechanism. She will randomly visit customers and judge who has the best work attitude through the customers' good reviews, and who will be promoted to general manager first.

However, it has not been implemented yet, and Xingxing needs to become a formal employee.

Huang Guan and Huang Yuzhu entrusted Xingxing to Dongdong with one click and left the river dam excitedly.

...

Dongdong kept his disguise, and he looked at the little boy Xingxing.

In the past, Dongdong had many subordinates, but they were all makeshift teams, and Xingxing in front of him was a truly certified formal employee.

"Hey, kid, you're cool?" Dongdong greeted.

Xingxing was young, but he could deceive his family. He hung out in Internet cafes every day. He had seen many gangsters. He felt that Dongdong was easy to talk to. He was not afraid of such people.

"Well, Xiaodong, can you play CF?" Xingxing asked.

Dongdong was puzzled: "What is CF?"

Xingxing sneered secretly. He didn't even know CF. He was really a bumpkin from a poor village.

He swept the river dam and ordered: "Take me to the strawberry garden to play. I haven't eaten strawberries for a long time."

Dongdong smiled: "Your work attitude is very proactive. I like it!"

Dongdong didn't forget to say hello to King Jiang Ning: "I'm leaving!"

Jiang Ning nodded: "Well, remember, you two are working voluntarily."

Xingxing left, and Dongdong caught up and asked: "Don't you say hello to him, otherwise he will embarrass you!"

Xingxing looked down: "Why should I say hello to him? Who is he?"

Dongdong: "If you don't please him, the consequences will be serious!"

Although Xingxing is young, he surfs the Internet every day and has his own worldview. He brainwashed Dongdong in reverse: "Then I will definitely be happy when he dies."

'If Jiang Ning dies...' Dongdong had the idea of ​​treason in his mind, and then he suppressed the bold idea in his heart, fearing that he would anger the king.

Dongdong shook his head: "Work hard, there will be many benefits in the future!"

Xingxing looked at this stupid Dongdong and saw through him. He thought to himself that when he was working later, he would trick the stupid fat man to work while he ate strawberries next to him.

In the past, in the class, Xingxing often played the fat man around.

Teacher Qian looked at Xingxing's figure walking away, and he said: "This kid will not have any future."

Zhang Ruyun's sadness healed a lot, and he was surprised: "Teacher, how did you see that?"

Teacher Qian glanced at him and said: "Ruyun, I'm here to teach you today!"

"To see if a boy has a future, first look at his parents. Have you seen his father? He rides a motorcycle, looks honest, and dares not speak straight. How can such a child have a future? What awaits him is a mortgage that he can't pay off for a lifetime. After working for a lifetime, if you can find a wife and live in peace, it is a blessing from your ancestors. "

Zhang Ruyun: "How can you be considered promising?"

Teacher Qian looked to the west and said: "The two children who often came to the farmhouse some time ago must have officials in their families. They must be promising."

Zhang Ruyun wondered: "After all, isn't it just to see the parents?"

Teacher Qian repeated as a matter of course: "Isn't it just to see the parents?"

Thirty years ago, wasn't he full of passion, but in the end he had to retire as an ordinary teacher?

...

Ten o'clock in the morning.

Aunt Gu rode her electric bike home. Recently, the work of Changqingye was very easy. After finishing the morning wave, Aunt Gu's work was over and she could spend more time with her daughter.

Xue Yuantong went to meet her immediately.

Aunt Gu looked at her little daughter and felt like when she lived in the village. Every time she went home from the market, her daughter would always come to greet her and ask her what delicious food she bought today.

As soon as Aunt Gu's electric bike stopped, Xue Yuantong looked into the basket, looking and searching, very excited.

Aunt Gu actually liked it very much. If every time she came home, her daughter just said "oh" and was cold and lonely, that would be bad.

Sometimes people don't just live alone, sometimes being needed by others is also a meaning of existence.

However, seeing her daughter's useless and greedy appearance, Aunt Gu taught her a lesson: "No, take off your shoes and go in to dig."
