I really don't want to be a teacher

Hearing the voice, the young man recovered from his stupefaction, and then smiled,

He looked at the old man, then at the bottle of water in his hand, unscrewed the cap, drank the water in the bottle in one gulp, and handed the empty bottle to the old man.

"Give……"

After finishing speaking, when the old man took it, the young man turned around and walked out of the park with the mobile phone in his hand. His pace became faster and faster, and the young man gradually started running and quickly disappeared into the park.

The old man took the bottle, unscrewed the cap, shook off the remaining water in the bottle, threw it into a woven bag, turned his head again, and looked at Lian Ge.

……

Watching the young man disappear from sight, Lian Ge turned his gaze, looked at the gaze of the old man in front of him, smiled slightly, and handed over the empty bottle in his hand.

"Thank you."

The old man took the empty bottle, threw it into a woven bag, and continued walking along the path in the park towards the distance.

……

Around the bench, there was silence again,

Only the sound of the breeze disturbing the shaded branches and leaves of the park rings from time to time,

"Squeak... squeak."

On the armrest of the bench, the little white mouse who had finished finishing the Roujiamo had grease stains on its forelimbs, stood upright, looked at Lian Ge, and yelled twice,

"I don't want to eat any more." Smiling, Lian Ge waved at the little white mouse,

In an instant, the oil stains on the mouse disappeared, and the plastic bag left on the armrest seemed to be blown into the trash can not far from the bench by a gust of wind.

The little white mouse turned its head, then jumped from the armrest, along Lian Ge's arm, onto the shoulder again, and squatted as before.

Glancing at the little white mouse, Lian Ge smiled slightly,

Looking back, Lian Ge took out the book from the system as before, and flipped through the pages.

……

The sound of gently turning the pages of the book is mixed with the sound of the breeze disturbing the branches and leaves. In front of the bench and on the park path, sparse pedestrians pass by from time to time.

The sun, which was just overhead, was gradually slanting westward and was blocked by clouds.

Several old people who were playing chess in the shade of the park before, after eating something at the food stalls in the small square, also walked outside the shade of the trees,

Just beside the shady tree, separated by several old people who had been playing chess before, sat down on the roadside sill, groped, took out a piece of red paper from their pockets, spread it flat in front of them, and returned it from there. The bushes found a few stones from below, and pressed the edge of the red paper to prevent it from being blown away by the gusts of wind.

I saw that on the few pieces of red paper that were not far apart, there were some black characters written on each of them: "Resolve divination and fortune-telling, look at marriage and horoscopes, and spread Fengshui to see the day..."

There are some nuances in the content of each red paper, but they are generally the same.

Yinde passed some old ladies from the park from time to time, stomping their feet and squatting down from time to time.

It's just that the few old people who are not far away still seem to be obsessed with the previous chess game. Whenever passers-by walk away, they argue about the previous chess game.

"...Then the last sentence is that you old man Ding is cheating, you have no regrets when you make a move, and you still regret the move. Seeing that there is no move left, you tell me to start over."

"Fart, did you say that you regretted three times in one game of chess, and you also said that I was cheating. Don't afford to lose in a game of chess."

"Old Chen, you have nothing to say about that round, but mine was wronged..."

"You are wronged, you are wronged, you are wronged...you are still wronged by your stinky chess basket."

"What kind of stinky chess basket, if you didn't command blindly beside me, would I have lost that game?"

……

Beside the lawn, listening to the voices clearly heard from the other side of the park path, and then looking at the red paper pressed by stones in front of these people,

Looking away, Lian Ge smiled and continued to flip the pages in his hand.

And at the same time as the old people sitting by the road were arguing, another person stood in front of the red paper of one of the old people,

……

"...Blame me for directing blindly. If it weren't for me directing you, your round would have been gone long ago. Don't listen to me directing blindly, right..."

As he was talking, he felt the change in the light beside him. The old man turned around and looked at the person standing in front of his 'booth'.

"...Girl, do you want to..."

"Can you tell fortunes here?"

"Yes, yes, yes," the old man became interested, "Marriage, career, study, horoscope, Feng Shui, whatever, what do you want to count, big girl?"

"Fortune-telling, I want to tell my fate..."

"...Here, what is fortune-telling, marriage or career?" The old man looked at the people in front of the booth and asked again,

"Forget it... how long is my life?"

……

Next to the path in the park, on a bench, listening to the female voice from the opposite side of the path, Lian Ge paused for a moment while turning the pages of the book,

Turning his gaze, he glanced across the path,

Standing in front of the booth was a woman, with black boots on her feet, a leather-like hip skirt and thick black stockings on her lower body, but her legs were slightly bloated, and the clothes that highlighted her figure made her legs look like It's a little ugly, the upper body is wearing a yellow coat, the face is heavily makeup, the foundation is thick, but it can't cover the wrinkles around the eyes,

This is a very dusty woman who looks to be about 40 years old. At this moment, she is half-turning her body, looking at the old man behind the red paper, her eyes are numb,

"……this……"

Listening to the woman's words and seeing the woman's appearance, the old man hesitated,

"...This old man is a half-baked man, he can't count such things, can he, old man Ding?" Seeing this, another old man at the side immediately chimed in,

"Yes, yes, sorry, sorry..." The old man in front of the woman responded instantly,

"He can't count, what about you?" The woman turned her head and looked at another old man,

"I don't think so," another old man shook his head resolutely, and then showed a hesitant expression on his face, "But... Miss, some things should be taken lightly, don't you think?"

"Look out? Hehe... Look out..."

The woman moved her steps and walked away in front of a few pieces of red paper, with a smile on her face, but her eyes were still as numb as before.

Chapter 231

Moving around, the woman murmured the words of the old man, smiling as if hearing something funny.

The old people behind the red paper looked at this strange woman, looked at each other, and said nothing.

The woman turned around from the red paper, her smile disappeared on her heavily made-up face, her eyes were numb, her expression was dull, she turned her head slowly, looking at the road in front of her, as if she was considering where to go.

The woman's eyes rested on the bench across the road again, she dragged her steps, and walked towards the bench step by step,

……

Stepping on black boots, the woman walked to the bench, paused, and glanced at Lian Ge sitting on the bench, the woman moved her steps again, and walked around the bench.

Walking to the back of the bench, the woman sat limply on the bench as if she had lost all her strength.

Leaning on the back of the chair, the woman raised her head, looking at the children playing in the lawn and the couple cuddling together, her expression was still dull and silent.

……

"You said, is there really retribution in this world?"

The woman looked into the distance, her expression unchanged, she was talking to herself, or she was talking to Lian Ge.

Hearing the sound, Lian Ge paused, turned his gaze, and glanced at the woman sitting behind the bench,

The woman's eyes were staring into the distance, and her eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, like dead ashes, with no brilliance to be seen.

His face was pale and dull with heavy foundation.

Looking away, Lian Ge didn't say much, and turned a page of the book again.

And the woman didn't seem to want to hear the answer, so she continued talking on her own,

"...you know what, I'm going to die... ho ho... I'm going to die."

Woman looks into the distance with a smile on her face and mouth saying,

Smiling and laughing, the smile on the woman's face disappeared again, and she fell silent.

Leaning against the back of the bench, he stared blankly into the distance.

……

And at this moment, the old man who was carrying the woven bag and the drink bottle came back again,

Holding a woven bag in one hand, and wiping the sweat off his face with the other, the old man stood by the road, turning his gaze, looking at the benches by the lawn, as if he wanted to find an empty bench to rest.

He paused for a moment on the bench where Lian Ge was sitting, the old man hesitated, still clutching the woven bag, hunched over, and walked over.

Walking to the side of the bench, the old man put the woven bag containing the beverage bottle a little farther away, and patted the ashes on his body before approaching.

Looking at the woman sitting behind the bench, and then at Lian Ge sitting in front of the bench, he hesitated for a while, the old man looked at Lian Ge,

"...Brother, I don't know if there is anyone sitting here. If there is someone..." The old man looked at Lian Ge and asked,

"There is no one to sit, the old man can do what he wants." Lian Ge glanced at the old man, shook his head and said.

"Thank you..." The old man nodded and said, then turned around and carefully sat down on the edge of the bench, close to the armrest.

"The weather is really hot..." the old man wiped his sweat and said,

"It's pretty hot."

Lian Ge responded, then turned his gaze to the woman behind the bench, who was still staring blankly into the distance.

The old man couldn't help turning around, and glanced at the woman sitting behind the bench,

"...Miss, something is on your mind. Is there something wrong at home?" The old man looked at the woman and asked aloud.

"Home? Ho ho, home..."

The woman twitched and laughed when she heard the sound.

"Can't you see? I'm a bitch, a whore! It's a pair of broken shoes. Does a bitch have a home?"

The woman smiled, as if she was about to burst into tears,

"...I'm still an old man with a broken shoe who is sick. Do you want to sleep with me, 80 yuan is enough!" The woman laughed wildly,

The old man looked at the woman, listened to the woman's words, first froze for a while, then fell into silence,

"...Girl, I have lived at such an old age, and I have seen a lot of things. If there is anything, you can tell me."

Looking at the woman, the old man said aloud.

Hearing the sound, the woman's laughter gradually subsided, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared. She turned her head, glanced at the old man, and fell into silence.

There was a sudden silence around the bench.

……

"...More than 20 years ago, I still had a family. I lived in a small mountain valley with only a few families around. There was a boy next door who was two years older than me,"

The woman turned her head back, slumped on the back of the chair, looked into the distance, her eyes were still blank,

"...I have liked him since I was a child, but my parents disagreed, saying that his family was poor and he was not a good person. When I was only eighteen or nineteen years old, they arranged a blind date for me early on, and wanted me to marry a man from the next village. A family... that day, he told me that he was going out to earn money, and when he came back to marry me, he asked me to wait for him, and I agreed. City.

I'm at home, dragging on, no matter what my parents say, I don't agree, waiting for him there..."

Saying that, the woman laughed, a little sadly,

"You said... At that time, I was too stupid..."

"...From, when he was 20 years old, he came back... That night, he told me that he would take me away, leave the small mountain, go to the big city where he worked, and live together there...

He told me that we could get married there and have a child, and then he would be in charge of the work, and I would stay at home with the child.At the beginning, we can rent a house first, then save some money and buy a small house...

I agreed, and the next night, I followed him with my luggage and left the house... When I was leaving, I was still spotted by my father. My father chased him after him, but he didn't catch up.

He yelled towards the mountain and told me that if he regretted it in the future, don’t come back, and he would pretend that he never gave birth to a daughter like me... At that time, I was thinking, I will never regret it in my life. "

"...I followed him and walked more than a dozen miles of mountain roads. When I arrived at the town, I took a car from the town, arrived at the county seat, and took a train from the county seat... At that time, it was the first time I had traveled so far. Everything is very novel, I feel that the buildings in the city are so tall and there are so many people...

After taking the train for two days, he and I arrived in Chang'an. When we first arrived, I thought this city was very prosperous and beautiful. I was immediately fascinated by this city..."

Looking into the distance, the woman's eyes were still as numb as dead ashes, and her expression didn't change much.
