My 26-year-old female tenant: Gufan on the Island

Chapter 43: Absurdity is a beautiful color

Le Yao had already taken off her down jacket, but I was embarrassed to take it from her because she looked a little thin without the down jacket. The thinner she looked, the more I felt guilty...

At this time, the boy's father came back again. He had a military coat in his hand. He handed it to me and said, "Wear this one, it's just been washed..."

Le Yao and I looked at him together...

It was at this time that the train entered a tunnel. The sound of wind resistance and the friction of wheels and rails were gathered by the tunnel and suddenly turned into a roar, which made it almost impossible for us to talk.

The boy's father simply gave me his coat, then turned and left. The tunnel was very long, and it took a full minute before he returned to his previous state.

I went to the bathroom and took off the clothes stained by the soup, then returned to my seat and said to Le Yao, "It's really just been washed. It smells like washing powder."

Le Yao seemed a little absent-minded, and after a while he replied: "You have to return it to others after you get off the train."

"Wear your clothes until you get off the train. I'm too embarrassed to keep them on."

"Is there anything else you're embarrassed about?"

"The whole city of Zhengzhou is still providing heat... I'm afraid you'll be cold, eldest sister!"

Le Yao just looked at me, and after a moment, she lowered her voice and said to me: "I always thought that whim was a cool emotion... But now it seems that it's not cool at all..."

"It would be cool to do everything based on whim... But the reality is that these decisions made on whim usually end up with a messy result..."

"You want to tell me that you can never look at the process and results separately, right?"

"Yes, life is like this, and so are feelings."

After saying this, I felt Le Yao's feeling of loss, and I was also disappointed, because while you are looking forward to the good things, there always seem to be some unintelligible things that happen at the wrong time...

I didn't want this feeling of disappointment to continue to spread, so I suddenly smiled and said to Le Yao: "But why do we have to do everything well?... We are human beings, not set. With good procedures, people should be turbulent and full of uncertainty..."

Le Yao didn't realize that I would give such comfort after complaining, so she was stunned for a while before replying: "If you say that, we can be more turbulent..."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know how much money you brought with you when you went out this time... Anyway, I have no money... No, to be precise, I can treat you to a bucket of instant noodles after you get off the train, and the rest It’s up to you.”

I was stunned for a while, my face sank, and I said, "I want to throw you off the train right now!"

……

Because we took the green train, it was already the morning of the next day when we arrived in Zhengzhou; Le Yao and I had breakfast near the train station, and then wandered around for a while. While wandering, I went from inside to Besides, I bought a set of clothes.

This set of clothes made the finances of both of us even tighter. She didn't lie to me, so the money she had was negligible. However, because I spent too much money during the Chinese New Year, my salary was only over 800 yuan.

More than 800 yuan doesn't mean we can't survive, but we are traveling now and we have to spend money on everything. I even think that after arriving in Luoyang, based on this more than 800 yuan, we can spend a day comfortably , are all luxuries.

So, this decision made on a whim began to become unhappy again. This time, Le Yao actually complained before me: "The total cost is only more than 800 yuan, but I still want to go to Longmen Grottoes. Just two tickets to Longmen Grottoes will cost 200 yuan..."

"You can stand at the entrance of Longmen Grottoes and watch their promotional videos."

"It's so boring!"

After a short pause, she seemed to have an idea, and then said: "Robben hasn't paid the two of us yesterday's salary yet? ... How about you call him and ask for it."

"You abandoned the person halfway and you still have the nerve to call and ask for salary?"

"Don't you have many friends? Why don't you borrow some from other friends?"

"The New Year is not over yet, so I went to ask someone to borrow money. Do I still want to be decent?..." I lit a cigarette, took a puff, and squinted my eyes again and said, "I'm not the only one who comes out to play. Regarding human matters, let me give you a tip... The New Year is not over yet. You call your parents and ask them for New Year's money... This is no better than running to ask someone to borrow money. It is more legitimate. too much."

I thought she would find an excuse to evade, but this time she was silent...

"If you really feel sorry for your parents, you shouldn't spend money so lavishly... Moreover, you are also an adult, and you should have the awareness to make money... Just like me, although I don't have any plan to spend money , but I know how to find a job to support myself.”

"Laugh at fifty steps and laugh at a hundred steps, is that interesting?"

I choked on Le Yao's words, so I took another puff of cigarette, and after a while I said: "Unfortunately, two identical people got mixed up together, and they were still in a completely unfamiliar city... Although It can be predicted that today will be a sunny day, but my mood is like a lonely boat, drifting in the water..."

"Why do we have to use the word "mixed" when we are together?"

"If I don't make progress and you have no future, you're just messing around..."

"Without me, you would still be a bastard... In addition to going to work every day, you go to the bar."

"It's just a way for me to let off steam."

"Can't this be a way for me to vent my emotions?"

I realized that I couldn't speak to her, so I fell silent again; at this time, she said to me: "Just mess around, just like you said... Life should be turbulent and full of uncertainty... …At the very least, when we get old, we won’t feel sad when we recall our young selves because it’s like a set program… To put it more bluntly, if life is a picture, then Absurdity can also be a very beautiful color.”

I thought about it, nodded and replied, "Yes, absurdity can also be a beautiful color."

"Then can you continue to be so ridiculous with me?"

"If I could stay as young as I am now, of course."

"Then I will be your elixir."

I finally turned around and looked at her, and she did it again, holding my arm and swinging it, and said: "It's up to you... When we get to Luoyang, let's stand at the entrance of the Longmen Grottoes scenic spot and watch their promotional videos. …”

Being in Zhengzhou, where the fog has not completely dissipated, I couldn't imagine the scene happening in another city, but at this moment, looking at her through the fog, I seemed to see that she would never age.

Yes, for such a lively and quirky woman, how could she age?

But my mind is deep, and I will most likely age. One day, I will no longer be ridiculous. By that time, I may no longer be able to keep up with her rhythm. Of course, I will feel a little indebted, because in the end, In the end, I broke my promise.

……

In a daze, my cell phone vibrated; even after I came back to my senses, it took me a moment to answer the call from my landlord, Lao Li.

There was nothing else to talk about between us, so before he could say anything, I said, "I've already paid you the rent!"

"It's not about paying the rent... There's just something I want to discuss with you... Before, didn't I tell you that a girl studying abroad wanted to buy my house..."

I immediately became alarmed and interrupted him, saying: "Buying or selling does not break the lease. I will tell you the ugly story first. If you dare to sell the house during the lease period..."

Lao Li also interrupted me: "No, no... I was asked to go to the house and take some photos for her to see... No, you are still renting the house... Of course I have to call I'm calling to ask for your opinion... If I really want to sell it, I'll tell you in advance that you should be compensated... Otherwise, you can continue to rent with the next landlord... I won't kick you out. "

"That's pretty much it."

"Then I'll go in and take pictures..."

"Shoot, don't touch my stuff, that's all."

"Then it will definitely not move... By the way, have you cleaned this house? Don't look back and make it a mess. It doesn't look good."

"When have you ever seen me mess up the house?... I just hate that I don't have any money. Otherwise, I would buy it with you to save you from bothering me every two days."

Lao Li laughed dryly twice and then hung up the phone. But I don’t feel that way in my heart, because I really feel Lao Li’s eagerness to sell the house; if I decide to stay in Suzhou, there will come a day when I need to find a new house, adapt to it, and live again...
