born to ashes

Wei Linze and Han Huai haven't seen each other for about half a year. When we meet again, Wei Linze hasn't changed much, but Han Huai has changed a lot, his hair has grown, and a little tangle is tied up in the back. He is unshaven, more like a artist.

It's like coming back from a refugee.

"Didn't you claim that you were going to search for film materials all over the world? The great director, before leaving, Yiyi said goodbye for several days, saying that it would be five or six years before he came back, and he said it was sensational, so why did you come back now? Already?" Wei Linze took a sip of his wine and teased Han Huai.

The great director Han Huai, who was full of passionate dreams, drank a glass of wine, "Can you be more tactful in your words, I don't want to lose face!"

Wei Linze looked at him quietly.

"Okay, let me tell you, I came back with a story!"

"Not very interested in your story."

Han Huai's throat was almost blocked by Wei Linze's words, "I just said it!"

Wei Linze ignored him, Han Huai spread his hands and spoke by himself.

"When I first arrived in Haicheng, I met a girl. She was a traveler. She said that a girl who loves to travel is like this. She has a hot personality and rough skin. She can't settle down, and she can't live those years. Quiet thing. We walked together for a while, and she told me a lot of stories on her travels. One night, we had a drink in a bar, and I was instantly enlightened. All cities and all the poor mountains and rivers are the same. Yes, going everywhere is actually a tasteless thing that sounds very romantic, it is an excuse for myself to relax. Then, after dawn, the girl continued to move forward, and I came back. "

Wei Linze didn't speak, but looked at him with a strange expression, and after a while he held his chin and said, "Okay, to be honest, why did you come back?"

Han Huaisheng has nothing to love, "Well, I have no money, and I can't even afford the bus ticket." He drooped his face, "The story of that girl is true, but there is one thing I didn't say, she is a rich second generation, Girls who love to travel have to have money."

Wei Linze laughed, "Your dream of a peerless movie was killed in the cradle because of this?"

Han Huai quickly changed the topic, "I almost forgot today's business."

"What's the business? You chose the place here. The business is not to have fun?" Wei Linze gave him a blank look.

"Please forgive me. I don't dare to be in front of you when I am having fun. I still have the video from the university. You have reason and grounds to call this kind of socialism that is not in line with socialism. The behavioral criticism of the core values ​​is bloody, and the little girl who opposed the party was made to cry by you. To be honest, I still watch Purify the Mind several times until now."

"Don't take it out of context. That topic is clearly about AIDS."

Han Huai spread his hands, "I took it out of context, so I am in a prosperous age and have serious business in mind."

"You're trying to hide it. If you want to talk about things, you can go to coffee shops and teahouses. What are you doing in the prosperous age? If you want me to say that you are a dog, you can't change your food..."

"Stop!" Before Wei Linze finished speaking, Han Huai stopped him with his hand, "Pay attention to your identity, you are now a great engineer of human souls, and you can always say that shit is bad."

"It's alright, the two of us can make our debut as a cross talk group if we go on like this, so hurry up and get down to business."

After saying this, Wei Linze glanced at the bar, and then smiled while holding the wine glass. Han Huai was still hesitating to organize the language of the business, seeing his smile, it was strange, "What are you laughing at?" Woolen cloth."

"It's nothing, I saw an acquaintance." Wei Linze said, "Talk about yourself."

"Let me say it first. I said this to spread the word and let you know. Don't be angry."

Wei Linze thought it was funny, "You know I'm going to be angry, so what are you talking about?"

"I'm just spreading rumors..." Han Huai still seemed a little aggrieved, "Do you still remember Xiao Jingkun? He came to me a few days ago and said that he was tricked in his school's Ph. ..."

Wei Linze stared at him with a smile, which made Han Huai's heart tremble and he couldn't continue.

"You said this matter, the only way to understand it so that I don't break up with you is that you write me a letter and ask me to talk to a few old professors I know, so as to trip Master Xiao." Wei Linze picked up the wine glass and took a sip of the wine.

"You... It's been so long, remember? Don't forgive him?"

Han Huai has always known that although Wei Linze looks gentle and doesn't care about anything, it's all because he doesn't care. When it comes to the things he cares about, he is so hard-hearted that he only accepts his own deadly principles. Let him try things he doesn't want to do.However, he really didn't expect that he would take Xiao Jingkun's matter to heart.

Wei Linze laughed, "Old Han, how long have we known each other?"

"Nine years?" Han Huai said uncertainly.

"I'm doing pretty well now, but you should know that it's all down to luck. Back then, Qin Jingkun tricked me into being expelled from the university. If I wasn't lucky enough to be directly referred by Mr. Liu to graduate school, I would Now I must go back to my hometown to farm, why should I forgive him?" Wei Linze spoke without emotion, just like the debates in college back then, calmly and well-founded, not at all impatient.

"You said, if I don't trip him up in this matter, then I will become a Virgin Mary?" Wei Linze still had a gentle face.

Han Huai also laughed, he was confused about this matter, and it was a pleasure to let Wei Linze say this, he corrected Wei Linze with a smile, "Holy Father."

"Hmph," Wei Linze snorted softly, "next time, you don't need to ask me for instructions on this kind of thing, you go directly to make trouble, make him miserable, and then tell me to watch the fun."

Wei Linze still had the same temper as before, even the sarcasm was convincing, Han Huai pursed his lips silently, and said along with him: "Okay, who doesn't understand the principle of beating a dog in the water."

The two drank all night in Shengshi, and it was already six o'clock in the morning when Wei Linze returned home.At this point, when the old professor in this building went out to practice Tai Chi, he met two people in the corridor and asked, "Xiao Wei, why are you up so early?"

Teacher Xiao Wei was also embarrassed to say that he had been up all night, so he could only nod in agreement.

When he reached the fourth floor, he clearly saw a person standing at the door of his house, holding a key crookedly and opening the lock with the key, the first floor smelled like alcohol.He looked up uncertainly, and it was indeed 401, his home.

Looks like a drunk who's gone to the wrong place.

He patted the drunk on the shoulder, "You have gone to the wrong place, this is my home."

The drunk turned his head, and Wei Linze saw clearly who it was. Where in life do we never meet again? He met that ponytail who loves to throw flying eyes again.

"Nonsense, it's obviously my house, I put all the keys in!"

Wei Linze glanced at the key helplessly, thinking, there's no reason to talk to a drunk, so he pushed Josh aside, "Can I drive for you?" Otherwise, he wouldn't even think about going home.

The drunk Josh was like a mentally retarded man. He stood beside him and nodded dumbly. Wei Linze opened the door with his own key and stepped in, trying to keep Josh out, but Josh reacted too quickly. , blocked the door with his hands all at once, and forced his way in.

After entering the door, Josh spotted the sofa and jumped in.

Wei Linze looked at him helplessly, this guy must have walked the wrong corridor, and he has never met him here before.

He had to go to class in the afternoon, so he ignored Josh, went back to his room, set an alarm clock for one o'clock, and fell asleep with his head covered.

In the afternoon class, the students were all groggy. Wei Linze had been speaking on the podium for less than half an hour, and fell asleep at the bottom, and a large group of students in the back row lowered their heads and pressed their phones.

Nowadays, college students are lazy, especially in this kind of humanities majors. Students don't buy young teachers. Wei Linze thought a little bit aggrievedly. Kill these young lecturers with a stick.

He cleared his throat, "How about finding a classmate to get up and answer the question."

At this time, the students who were playing with mobile phones in the rows behind raised their heads and looked at the PPT in horror. Wei Linze remembered a sentence, and sat up in shock in the dying net.The students gave full play to the sense of solidarity among each other, and asked each other where the teacher said, and the sleeping students immediately raised their heads. The expressions on their faces were first blank, then panic, and they looked at the podium in a daze. .

Wei Linze suddenly felt that it was quite fun, and he was in a good mood instantly.

"Forget it, let me talk."

The expressions of the students returned to normal, and then they lowered their heads and continued playing with their phones.

Wei Linze secretly laughed for a while, why was he so honest when he was in college, he always listened to lectures honestly.

After class, Qiao Wang leaned in front of the podium with a small notebook, and politely asked other students to ask first, but he was at the end of the queue.Students who listen carefully to the class can still realize the value of Teacher Wei.

After Qiao Wang asked the question, he smiled at Wei Linze, "Teacher, I'm Qiao Wang."

"I remember you." Wei Linze said.

"Teacher, I should be in charge of "The Wave" in the future. Please leave me a contact information so that I can contact you."

Wei Linze's first impression of Qiao Wang was that this student was very tactful, and he didn't like to meet such people, but he didn't expect him to take over the thankless job of "The Wave", and suddenly he had a good impression of him.

"I'll leave you my WeChat."

After Wei Linze returned home, when he opened the door, he was greeted with a strong smell of alcohol. Only then did he remember that he forgot to open the window for ventilation before leaving.He quickly opened the windows, and the air was a little fresher.

Josh was still lying on the sofa and sound asleep, but it was quite quiet.

Wei Linze poured a glass of water and put it next to him, and went into the kitchen to make dinner by himself.

Josh was completely awakened by the smell of rice.After waking up, he first stabilized the headache that rushed to the top, and then he recovered and realized that this was not his home.what happened?

At this time, Wei Linze was coming out of the kitchen with the dishes. Seeing Josh sitting on the sofa with a bewildered expression, he couldn't help but think of the bewildered students in class, their expressions were exactly the same.

"You're awake."

Josh blinked twice, he clearly remembered that he had gone home, "This...what's the situation?"

Wei Linze put the dishes on the dining table, "Obviously, you went to the wrong place, which unit do you live in?"

"Going wrong?" Josh couldn't believe that such a stupid thing would happen to him, "Isn't this Unit 14, Building 2?"

"You live here? Why haven't I seen you before?"

It's strange to have seen it, Josh thought to himself, his work and rest schedule is so weird, can he meet the teachers in this building? "I live in 301."

"This is the fourth floor."

It turned out to be the wrong floor.

Wei Linze served the rice, and asked politely among neighbors, "Do you want to have dinner together?"

Josh didn't mean to be polite at all. Looking at the plate of tomatoes on the dining table, he nodded, "Okay."

Wei Linze poured him a glass of water and another bowl of rice.

Josh picked up a chopstick of an egg and put it in his mouth, and immediately regretted his impoliteness, so it's better to be more polite.

He took a mouthful of rice, "Mr. Wei, has the price of salt increased recently?"

As the simplest dish, tomato and eggs can be made like this, which is really not easy.

Wei Linze didn't understand, and thought that his dear neighbor was really discussing people's livelihood issues with him. He usually didn't pay much attention to these, and said, "I didn't pay attention."

It wasn't until he took a bite of the dish that he realized what Josh meant. It turned out that there was too little salt.He doesn't know how to cook, and he can fry tomatoes and green peppers, which can be eaten before frying, but he still doesn't want to admit that he can't cook, so he can only pretend at this time Sophistry quibbles, "Eating less salt is good for your health."

Josh seemed to have seen through everything a long time ago and didn't say a word. Fortunately, he didn't have high requirements for food. In short, the meal ended in a fairly harmonious atmosphere.

Wei Linze learned his lesson, he didn't politely ask him to drink tea and eat some fruit, and sent him off in a personable manner.

Josh went home and packed up, and was about to go to Shengshi, when Zheng Fei's phone urging came, he answered it, but it was not Zheng Fei over there.

"Brother Josh, I'm Daxu, Brother Fei told you not to come to the prosperous world today."

"Aren't you going? I only went back yesterday for the first day. Why is Manager Zheng so crazy?"

"No, that..." Da Xu stammered on the phone.

"What is that, where is Zheng Fei? Let him pick it up."

"Well... Mr. Wei has returned to the country and is looking for you. Brother Fei has gone to deal with him."

"Damn it?" Josh almost couldn't stand still, "Didn't you say it will take a few days, why is it so fast?"

"Brother Fei is also confused, don't come here today, Brother Fei should be able to withstand it, but it will be hard to say after that, he will inevitably go to you."

Josh lost his temper, "He's messing with me, I'm afraid he's doing something and I don't owe him anything!"

After yelling, he hung up the phone with a snap.

The lingering Wei asked him.

This kind of person is really cheap. When he foolishly backed him before, people didn't treat him as a human being. Now that he finally stopped backing him, he came around again.What is this called?

Damn it, he's still a hot guy no matter what, isn't it Mr. Wei's stuff, pick up the torn things and put them back together?It doesn't make sense.If you can't pick it up, you can't fight it.

It's just right that you don't have to go to the prosperous age.

Josh had a good night's sleep, and got up at six o'clock in the morning to go out for morning exercises with a few old professors upstairs. When he came back, he bought tea eggs and soy milk fritters from the small stall outside.The days of normal people are quite enjoyable.

He gnawed on fried dough sticks and walked upstairs, when he bumped into Wei Linze who was going downstairs, Wei Linze said hello, "Why haven't I seen you before?"

Josh spread his hands, he was still in prosperity at this point before, "I haven't seen you before."

With a lot of free time, Josh himself was a little curious, so he simply cleaned up the house thoroughly, and it was already noon after packing the garbage.When I was going downstairs to throw out the trash, I happened to see Wei Linze coming back with a bag of lunch. It was really a fate that couldn't be stopped. I have lived here for several years and I haven't seen him once. Now it's good, I see him several times a day.

Looking at the rice in Wei Linze's hand, Josh suddenly sympathized with him, it's really miserable for people who can't cook.

"Come to my house for lunch today." Josh and Wei Linze went upstairs together, saying as they walked.

"No need, I'm going to buy food." Wei Linze politely refused.

"Yesterday you said that eating too much salt is unhealthy, but the things bought outside are healthy? High oil, high salt, and high calories. Come on, didn't I have a meal at your house yesterday?"

"You didn't take revenge on me because yesterday's food was not salty, did you?" Wei Linze smiled.

"Do I look so narrow-minded?"

Wei Linze nodded.

Just walking to the third floor, Josh didn't bother to talk nonsense, so he opened the door and pushed Wei Linze in.

Josh's family and Wei Linze think very differently.The inside is quite clean, but the furniture is in the style of the last century, and the TV is still a big-headed color TV.There is a red leather sofa in the middle of the living room, which looks out of place with the old wooden furniture around. Josh poured him a glass of water, pointed to the sofa and said, "Sit here for a while, and I'll cook something later."

Wei Linze looked at the table on the other side, there was already a piece of Mushu meat and a bowl of rice, it was amazing that the meat could be fried.

After a while, Josh brought out another scrambled egg with tomatoes and put it on the table. He waved to Wei Linze, "Let you try real scrambled eggs with tomatoes."

Wei Linze felt that Josh didn't look like the kind of person who could cook. After he took a bite of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, he couldn't believe it. Although he didn't want to admit it, he was really a human being.

Comrade Josh bit his chopsticks triumphantly: "How about it, are you starting to doubt life?"

"A little bit." Wei Linze said truthfully.

Josh's mouth was almost grinning up to the ears, and he took a few mouthfuls of rice into his mouth, "Eat more, eat more, and doubt life later."

Wei Linze ignored him, just ate, and said after eating, "Your cooking is really delicious."

After finishing speaking, he added: "It's the people I know who cook and cook delicious food."

Josh was taken aback when Wei Linze praised him so much.To be honest, he has heard many people praise him for his good looks, he has also heard others praise him for his good figure, his ability to dress up, and all kinds of compliments in order to achieve a certain purpose, but he has never heard of him being as straightforward as Wei Linze. A very sincere compliment.

It turns out that this is what it feels like to be praised, Josh suddenly had such an idea.

Sure enough, people who praise others when they disagree with each other are cute, who doesn't want to be praised by others?

"Come to my house for dinner more in the future, welcome." Josh was praised like a fool.

"Josh." Wei Linze walked to the door and called him suddenly.

Josh glanced at him and asked, "What's wrong?" After saying this, he realized, how did this guy know my name!

"How do you know my name?"

Wei Linze ignored him, and said to himself: "Your name is really stupid, really..."

"The person with the silliest name I know."

Josh: "You fucking know me!"

"It's just that you are special. I only know you as a special person." Wei Linze said.

Josh had just benefited a little bit, and Wei Linze added, "Everyone else is quite normal."

Oh!

"I still don't welcome you to come and eat." Josh shut Wei Linze out of the door.Sensational but three seconds.

Even so, at noon the next day, Josh ran upstairs and knocked on Wei Linze's door, "Go down and eat."

Wei Linze, who was still holding a book in his hand, followed him downstairs in a daze, only to find that the book was still in his hand after entering the door. As if to show off his cooking skills, Josh set up a large table with all kinds of dishes.

Wei Linze was stunned, and suddenly said: "You are not a cook, are you?"

Josh can't wait to take back all the words he said yesterday. If he can't speak, Wei Linze ranks second and no one deserves the title of number one. "It's you who are praising me, okay?"

"Are you really not a cook?"

"Yes, yes, I am a cook."

Wei Linze casually put the book aside, "There are so many dishes, even if they are delicious, the two of us can't finish them."

Josh served him rice, "Then call Zhang Zhihe from the clinic downstairs to eat together."

"Okay." Wei Linze smiled, "Doctor Zhang's name is Zhang Zhihe."

Josh opened the window and yelled downstairs, "Zhang Zhihe, come and eat!"

"Wait!" came a shout from below.

It turned out to be called like this, he thought it was calling or going downstairs to call.

No wonder I always felt that Zhang Zhi was familiar with this name, so it turned out that they used to communicate like this before.

Only at this time did Wei Linze know who the "Zhang Zhihe who went home to eat" who was passed down as the legend of Zhucheng University's family college was.

When Zhang Zhihe came up, he saw Wei Linze and was taken aback. Wei Linze stood up with a smile and shook hands with him, "Doctor Zhang, hello."

"Hello, Mr. Wei...?"

Zhang Zhihe stammered.

Looking at the dry atmosphere, Josh coughed helplessly, "What's so embarrassing for you two to ask, can you relax and have a meal?"

Zhang Zhihe laughed, which was embarrassing enough, "Just call me Zhihe, that's what Josh calls me."

"You fart, I obviously call you Zhang Tiedan." Josh set the table and chopsticks, and replied to Zhang Zhihe.

Wei Linze also smiled: "My full name is Wei Linze, you can call me whatever you like."

Wei Linze didn't talk a lot when eating, but Josh and Zhang Zhi talked to you, like a special cross talk show, and the meal was lively.

When the three of them were halfway through eating, Josh slapped his thigh and almost forgot about his family's unlucky Er Gazi.He carried Ergazi to the dining table and fed it a small yellow croaker.

Wei Linze took a look, "Do you have a cat?"

"It's called Ergazi." After Josh finished speaking, he picked up Ergazi and waved at Wei Linze, "Ergazi, this is your father Wei."

Er Gazi looked indifferent.

Zhang Zhihe said, "Er Gazi is just a big tsundere, usually he doesn't have much sense of presence."

Josh bared his teeth at Er Gazi, "Aww!"

Sure enough, Ergazi didn't even lift his eyelids, and concentrated on eating his little yellow croaker.

Josh pouted, "Well, that's good, cats and humans who hate each other."

After sending the two Cengfan away, Josh looked at the books that were thrown aside, and suddenly understood why those manuscripts came into his hands, a familiar fate.

So, the relationship between him and Wei Linze is not fate, not God's will, it's clearly a matter of throwing things away and meeting up and picking things up.

"All Tang Poems"

Wei Linze really sees everything, huh? Josh was also idle when he was idle, he took it in his hand and looked at it.

Er Gazi was lying next to him, and the years were quiet.

"Er Gazi, why can't you be more lively?"
