In the autumn of 2021, at Qingda University in Chongqing, the south, an ordinary young man was holding a mobile phone in his hand, drinking milk tea and playing mobile games, comfortably squandering the good time that belongs to college students. In this age group, in fact, almost 80% of college students are like this. Their understanding of college life is almost to show off, get a diploma, and preferably a girl! It's a pity that happy time always passes quickly, and Li Yu himself didn't expect that this kind of happy and idle time would soon leave him.

Just over a year ago, Li Yu, who came from an ordinary family background, relied on his own efforts and a lot of make-up lessons to get admitted to Qingda University in Chongqing with a barely adequate score. The reason why Li Yu himself was admitted here is It was because one of his game netizens was also in this city. They met on an online game when they were in the third year of junior high school, and they hit it off immediately. The two chatted very well in Qiuqiu, and they also cooperated very well in the game. , and this good friend is a native of Chongqing, and always shows off to Li Yu how attractive their Sichuan and Chongqing girls are! So, with the encouragement of their good gay friends, the two of them made an appointment to take the Qingda University exam together, and then meet gay! Fortunately, the two of them finally got together in this university through hard work. Sadly, the two bastards entered this school only after their grades barely met the standards, so they had no advantage in choosing a major... In the end, they reluctantly chose to study in the mining major in the name of being miners. , and became a veritable bastard...

Li Yu's good gay friend's name is Wang Qingyang. Because Wang Qingyang loves to eat and is lazy and has a good family background, he looks a little rich. Li Yu also nicknamed him Wang Fat. In fact, Li Yu gave him face by calling him Wang Fat, because the way Wang Qingyang walked out of the dormitory without cleaning up his appearance, 99% of people would probably say "fat nerd"! Li Yu is several months older than Wang Pang, so Wang Pang will also call Li Yu Lao Li. From then on, the two of them started making jokes in school, hanging out in class and in the dormitory when there was no class, happily enjoying the university life every day. Until one day a few months later, Li Yu received a phone call from home, and all this peace was completely broken...

Li Yu’s mother: “Xiao Yu, how are you doing at school? Are you keeping up with your studies?” Li Yu: “Oh, Mom, why did you call me suddenly? There are no classes this afternoon. You are playing games with your friends, how about I call you back later?" Li Yu's mother: "You little bastard, how do you know how to play all day long? I used to just go to Internet cafes to play at home all day long, but now I go to college. No one cares anymore, right? Are you letting yourself go? How many times has my mother said, we are just an ordinary family. You have to study hard and find a way out by finding a job in a big company in the future! The mining major you studied is actually not bad. In the future, after graduation, I will have the opportunity to work in a company like petrochemicals. If I work hard and become a full-time employee, I can at least become a blue-collar worker. Xiaoyu, I heard from my mother that our family is really trying its best to provide you with a university. Can you? You really have to work hard!" Li Yu: "Oh, I know, Mom! You haven't said enough at home! You say this every time! I will work hard myself! By the way, Mom, can you make an advance? Month's living expenses! I have something to do this month and I want to use some money in advance! Hehe!" Li Yu's mother: "Why do you want money? Didn't I just transfer 1500 yuan to you for living expenses in the past two weeks? Where did the money go? ? Don’t do those illegal things! I tell you!” At this point, Li Yu’s mother’s tone was choked with sobs. Li Yu has been very careful since he was a child. This abnormal behavior of his mother suddenly made him He was caught by Li Yu. So Li Yu immediately said: "Mom! I didn't spend it randomly. I didn't use up the 1500 yuan before. I kept 500 yuan for dinner and saved the remaining 1000 yuan. I made the advance because I wanted to change to a laptop. I The laptop I’m using now is a bit too heavy, and I want to change it to a thinner one that I can take with me to the classroom. But, Mom! Tell me honestly, did something happen at home?” Li Yu’s mother: “Hey , Xiaoyu, please save some money. Just use the computer. Mom really can't help you change it, and mom's salary has not been paid yet. Hey... Xiaoyu, you have grown up. You should think more about your family, and don’t want what others have. We are not a wealthy family.” Li Yu: “Mom, tell me honestly! Did something happen at home? It doesn’t matter if I don’t want the computer. I originally planned to slowly save some money to buy it, but there were recent online activities and discounts, so I thought about whether I could save some money in advance and grit my teeth to replace it." Li Yu's mother: "Hey, Xiao Yu, your dad, hey... Your father was speculating in stocks with his colleagues at work, and even used some kind of leverage. Now all the money has been lost, and he still has more than 30 yuan. He has to pay it back before September 9 to close the position. Mom doesn’t even want it. I know what to do. Now my family is planning to temporarily mortgage the house to the bank to see if I can get some loan to get through this. Hey..." Hearing this, Li Yu clearly heard his mother's words on the phone. With Ruowu's sobs, Li Yu took a deep breath when he heard the changes that had happened at home... With such a big thing happening at home, it was still unclear whether he could continue in college. Li Yu slapped his forehead hard, and then organized his words and said: "Mom, I know about the family affairs. I am just a student now and can't do much. I still have 30 yuan here. This is my I saved it to buy a laptop. I will call you now and start from next month. You don’t need to pay me for living expenses anymore. I will find a part-time job and try my best to subsidize living expenses by myself. I’m sorry, Mom. I can think of nothing. , that's all." Li Yu's mother: "Xiao Yu, you don't need to give me money, just keep your money for yourself. The house at home is a mortgage, and it won't be sold immediately. We won't be homeless. Don’t worry, our family has tightened our belts in the past few years and lived a little harder. Your dad and I will work hard to pay off all the debts. Your living expenses will be less in the future. Mom will I can only give you 3100 yuan a month. You can save some money for yourself. Okay, mom has gone to work and died. If you go out of town, you should take good care of yourself. Eat on time, play less computer games, and study more!" "Beep beep beep" the phone was hung up as my mother was nagging...

Li Yu's mood was very complicated at this time. He turned off the computer and sat there quietly. He silently picked up the cigarette beside him, lit it, took a big puff, and murmured to himself. Said: "Oh, Yuxi... It seems that I will have to smoke Double Happiness in the future..." Wang Fat, who was next door, saw Li Yu turning off the computer and sitting there smoking silently. He immediately picked up the game and came over to click on it. Genyan asked: "Old Li, what's going on? Why did he suddenly become nirvana?" Li Yu smiled bitterly and said: "Hey... Fatty Wang, you don't understand~ You don't understand~" Wang Qingyang was suddenly confused by Li Yu Confused.

That night, Li Yu couldn't sleep. He was thinking that society is such a reality. It has never been that easy for the lower class to improve. By working a job, it is already good to live a normal life. If you want to find some way to make more money through speculation, then It's just too difficult. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Oh, the stock market?" This is just a stage for capital to exploit us, the people at the bottom... At this moment, Li Yu wants to make himself stronger. He feels extremely, why Some people are born with a life of fine clothing and fine food. As for him, although his family is ordinary, he is still happy. Why don't those rich people even let small families like theirs go? And suck it all up! At this moment, Li Yu, thinking of this, his face became uncontrollably ferocious...

In the next few days, Li Yu stayed in the dormitory and did not go to class. He was in a bad mood and his mental state was also very poor. He kept thinking about how he could help his family. He is a young man in his early 20s, and in this society, he is like a small boat, insignificant. All he could do was pray silently, praying for God's mercy to allow his family to overcome this hurdle. He dared not do anything. Because he understands that at this moment he is still too weak and it would be a disservice if he didn't help. He can't do anything. "Haha, can't you do anything? Can't you change anything? Haha..." At this time, he thought of his father and his mother again. His father was always very strict with him, but he loved him very much in his heart. , In fact, Li Yu knew that his father had been exposed to some basic investment and stock things a few years ago. My parents are both employees of the company. If I can rely on working part-time to support myself through college, it is already pretty good. If one day I don't live up to my expectations and can't find a particularly good job, I will probably go back to my hometown in the small county, ask the old man to look around, and arrange a job for Li Yu with an income of 3000-4000, and then arrange a blind date. If you just live a small life, your life will be over. My father's investment is actually for himself. Li Yu knew very well that his father wanted to take advantage of the rapid development of technology in recent years and invest in stocks for a few years, which would coincide with my graduation from college. If you work in a big city and find a wife, you don't have to go back to our small county town. My father wants me to take root in a big city, so he works hard to find ways to make some money so that I can pay a down payment to buy a house in a big city. Li Yu's mother also knew and understood all this. But if you want to make some money, it’s not that easy.

As Li Yu thought about it, the corners of his eyes became uncontrollably moist. At this time, Wang Qingyang suddenly walked in from outside the door. "Old Li, what's wrong with you? You don't go to class, you stay in the dormitory all day, and you don't play games." "Oh! Why are your eyes red and you're crying? Are you broken up?" "I haven't seen you either. Who are you dating?" Li Yu wiped his eyes gently, and then said to Wang Fat: "Fat man, something happened at home. I can't help. I'm in a bad mood recently, so I don't want to do anything. , I just want to mess around." "I really want to do something to help my family, but I'm just an ordinary scumbag, nothing." Wang Qingyang stared at the scheming gangster who usually dominated the game with him. Chang, he was so stunned that he didn't come back to his senses. Wang Pang has never seen Li Yu show such an expression. In the game, Li Yu is thoughtful, brave, strategic, and extremely confident. In school, Li Yu is lively and cheerful. In class, he also talks and laughs with many girls. Today, Wang Qingyang opened his eyes and saw a depressed Li Yu. For a moment, Fatty Wang didn't know how to comfort Comrade Li. "I think, Lao Li, you don't need to put too much pressure on yourself. After all, we are all students. We don't have the ability to get involved in family affairs. All we can do is to do our part well. , I usually pray more for your family, but if it doesn’t work, go to Longfa Temple to pray for peace and success for your family. We are only half-grown children, so that’s all..." Suddenly, Li Yu stood up fiercely. His eyes were looking straight at Wang Qingyang. "Fat man! You're right! It's not that we can't do anything. In addition to doing our own thing! We can also pray for our family! Although it's a bit metaphysical, but sincerity is spiritual! I pray for my family every once in a while Once in a while, the family will slowly get better. No matter how bad it is, let alone making the family rich and powerful, it would be great to at least stop having troubles at home!" Wang Qingyang touched his head and said, "Although I don't know what happened to your family. But you want to pray for your family. Fatty, I will accompany you. Who made me your best friend? I also hope that you can cheer up as soon as possible and become the lively and cheerful old Li!" "Thank you, Fatty! I will arrange the canteen tonight. !" "I'm so stingy! I've been comforting you for a long time, so you invited me to eat in the cafeteria..." "Oh, this is not a family accident, and I don't have much capital, hehe..."

In this way, Li Yu's life gradually returned to normal. He went to class and after class every day, played games in the dormitory, played with the girls in the class, and became a normal college student. However, he also has another hobby in his life, which is holidays. On the 15th day of the lunar month, he likes to go to some temples to offer incense and pray for his family and parents. Wang Qingyang did not break his promise and accompanied Lao Li every time. Slowly, there was a rumor in the class. Li Yu and Wang Qingyang have a hobby, that is, on weekends or holidays, they like to go to various temples everywhere. It can be said that they just sew temples together and worship. It is simply feudal superstition! Even the counselor had talked to the two of them several times, but after learning the real reason for Li Yu, the counselor could not say anything more. He could only point out silently that as long as it does not affect your studies and other students, you are welcome outside the school. The school doesn't care about your life.

In this way, the second semester of 21 has come. This is also the end of Li Yu's sophomore year, and he will soon enter his junior year. During his sophomore year, one day, Wang Qingyang rushed into the dormitory like a headless fly and said loudly to Li Yu: "Old Li! I found a good place!!" Li Yu looked at him like he was an idiot. Looking at Wang Qingyang, he asked slowly: "What? Did you find the secret treasury that the Kuomintang failed to open when they retreated from Yucheng during the Republic of China?" Wang Qingyang took a few breaths before replying calmly: "You have something in your head. ? There is such a place, and I still call you? I guarantee that I will dig it all by myself... Hahahaha..." "Come on, I won't talk to you anymore, didn't I go back to the countryside recently? My aunt used to be Those who live in Chongqing City only return to the countryside dozens of kilometers away from Chongqing City when they are older. I heard my aunt say that their place belongs to the end of the Jialing River, and all the water in the river flows through this village. It has outstanding people and a good place, so I came back. Spend your old age in the village." "I heard that my aunt and her friends have a very old river temple near the river. I heard the old lady at the entrance of the village say that it is very spiritual. It's just that the city of Chongqing has been built more and more in recent years. The better, and this area belongs to the lower reaches of the Jialing River, with some scattered villages, and the government has not developed it. There used to be many ancient temples in the lower reaches, but because of the sparse population, they have gradually lost their incense. There is no way, there are fewer people coming, and the village People have gone to the city, and slowly, these historical relics have gone with the wind." Speaking of this, Wang Qingyang looked at Li Yu with a wink and said: "How about it, Lao Li! This weekend, our brother Do you two want to go on an adventure trip to the lower reaches of the Jialing River? I'll go find my mom to get the car, and we'll drive there!"

After a year of praying for blessings in various places, Li Yu also visited many Buddhist temples and temples, and his personal character has also been somewhat sublimated. After all, he also knows that this is just a little bit of his own sustenance. He is not too superstitious, but just finds some inner comfort and hopes that his family will be stable.

"Yes! Let's go on the weekend." "Okay! I'll call my mother and tell her to borrow the BMW for the weekend!" Li Yu looked at the obscene smile on Fatty Wang's face and couldn't help but shake his head.
