Emerald Grapefruit

The weather in November is cool but not cold, which is a good time for barbecue.Yu Wenyou still had to prepare lessons, and You Hexuan handled the ingredients alone, chopping and marinating what needed to be done.I also dug out two autumn pears from the refrigerator and stewed a casserole of rock sugar pears. Unfortunately, there were no red dates, otherwise both the color and the taste would be better.The mountains are different from the tranquility of the city. You Hexuan enjoys this moment of relaxation, and even simple housework becomes joyful.

By seven o'clock in the evening, it was completely dark.You Hexuan brought Bingtangxueli broken fire to the backyard to cool down, and at the same time lit a charcoal fire, then turned to ask the person at the desk in the house: "It's not done yet?"

Yu Wenyou stretched out his hand and closed the textbook: "Okay! I'll get some materials left over at the weekend, or I'll forget it myself." He said three steps and two steps to the side of the barbecue pit, "I'm starving to death! No?"

You Hexuan took a bowl of pear soup and handed it over: "Drink some soup first, does your throat feel uncomfortable?"

Yu Wenyou smiled: "Fortunately, it's good to get used to it. I learned how to pronounce it when I was in school. Otherwise, after a day, my voice will be useless."

"We still need to take care of it. Don't be careless just because you are young." You Hexuan said while flipping the ingredients skillfully, "There are many occupational diseases for being a teacher. Although you must all have social security, the pain cannot be solved by money. "

There was a lot of concern in the words, Yu Wenyou would not answer it.Seeing that he was silent, You Hexuan asked again: "Is it distressing for you to come to the mountains to support education?"

Yu Wenyou was depressed, why does everyone ask this question?I had no choice but to explain patiently: "There is no one in my house."

You Hexuan froze for a moment: "Is there no one?"

Yu Wenyou hesitated for a while before saying: "I have an uncle who I haven't contacted for a long time." He lowered his head and smiled, "It's nothing, I've grown up, so I feel more comfortable this way."

"Same," You Hexuan twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled, "My father died early, and my mother ran away, so I don't know if I'm alive or not. It doesn't matter if I live or not, she thinks I'm dead anyway."

For a while, both of them fell into silence.The suffering of orphans lies not only in the precarious survival pressure, but also in waiting for a good life after finally getting through it, only to find that life is more difficult than before-the endless loneliness invades every cell.No one cares about your well-being, no one cares about your happiness and anger, and even with empty deposits, you can't buy something for the people you care about, because the people you care about are gone.

You Hexuan rubbed Yu Wenyou's hair: "It will be fine to start a family and start a business by myself in the future."

"I'm not married!" Yu Wenyou replied decisively.

"Why?" You Hexuan asked suspiciously, "Isn't it lively when you get married early and have children and grandchildren?"

"I don't want to, I don't like it." Yu Wenyou didn't want to explain the real reason, so he asked You Hexuan; "What about you? How many children do you have?"

You Hexuan raised his forehead: "How can people like us make a living? I haven't gone to college like you. After typing a few words, I came out to run the world. I just slowed down a little in the past two years and got some money. Fengli Come and go in the rain, which woman is willing to follow? Now there are a few, all of them come for money. I want to find someone to live in peace, and it doesn’t mean that I am not allowed to use my money. If they exchange their hearts, I will give everything I don't hesitate to do anything; but if you use scheming to deceive, and your heart is only for money and not for me, then you will go as far as you can. Our business is complicated... It's complicated... It's better for you here, everything is fine Pure and pure."

Yu Wenyou snorted, "I've read too many articles by Xiao Qingqing." He glanced at the village, "The day before yesterday, there was a commotion in the village. Men and women's issues!"

You Hexuan raised his eyebrows: "Abusive, treacherous?"

"What else can there be? Make it into a pot of porridge. I also chopped a pig and two chickens to death. Why bother? What kind of enmity do animals have with them? Otherwise, we would have no pork to eat today."

You Hexuan laughed: "Why is there no chicken? By the way, your freezer is full of things, and they gave them all?"

"It's not a gift, it's all here. Sometimes leftovers are also put here. There are not many refrigerators in the whole village, so it's most convenient to put them here. My place is public property, so I don't take advantage of it. occupy."

You Hexuan rolled his eyes: "Isn't it your sponsorship?"

Yu Wenyou smiled: "It doesn't bother me, whatever you want. Fortunately, the kitchen is in front, and they want to use my refrigerator. I just need to close the living room and let them go. They know I'm busy, so they are embarrassed quarrel with me."

"You have such a good temper!" After saying this, the dullness just now basically dissipated.You Hexuan said, "Tomorrow weekend, why don't we go play in the county?"

Yu Wenyou shook his head: "Noisy."

"What's the noise? What's the fun of you nesting here every day? Have you ever eaten steak? It's not very good in the county. Let's eat it alive first, and I'll take you to the city to eat it later."

Where is it all?Yu Wenyou didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You don't get paid for nothing, what do you want from me?"

"Yes!" You Hexuan said as he handed a piece of roasted pork to Yu Wenyou, "Please eat more."

……

"Just kidding," You Hexuan said again, "it's nothing, pandas and camels are also..., we just got together. Meeting is fate, I treat you as a little brother, you don't dislike me as a brother, so don't refuse me to give Your gadgets. They are worth nothing, so it’s rare to hit it off."

"I don't have anything. If you give me those, you deserve it." Yu Wenyou is not a child. He knows that making friends requires giving to each other. What can he give to others?

"There is a house! You are quiet here, I like it. Of course, I can live in a farmhouse. The main reason is that the really quiet place is not developed enough and the accommodation is inconvenient. I live in someone else's house. The couple quarreled with chickens and dogs. I don't know if they are here for vacation. It’s still a shame! You are so comfortable here, the original wooden floor, the original wooden furniture, fresh and elegant, well-maintained, not worse than a good resort. I have the money to repair a house, but I haven’t arrived yet The level of sending someone to take care of it for me. Look, isn’t it right?”

Since You Hexuan donated a large sum of equipment, materials and stationery, Yu Wenyou did not intend to let him spend the night in the open air.Not to mention sleeping in the living room, even if someone owns the bed, he can go to the living room and lay the floor by himself!When he was a child, he ran an elementary school in the village, and his eyes turned green watching the children playing with those things on other people's TV.His childhood was filled with all sorts of gaps, and now it's nice to see someone filling those gaps for his students.In my heart, I feel that You Hexuan is a very good person who has already owed a lot of favors, so talking about eating steak is too much.After a few contacts, I also found that You Hexuan didn't like dry goods very much, and there are only those that can be sold here.Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh, if only You Hexuan was a foodie like Zhuo Daonan.

You Hexuan handed over another half of corn and said, "What are you thinking about?"

"It's nothing." Yu Wenyou smiled and shook his head, "Do you want to climb the mountain tomorrow? I'll accompany you."

"Okay, it's a pity that I dare not pick mushrooms, otherwise I will come back to make soup. The ones I pick myself will taste better." You Hexuan said, "By the way, we are also friends. Next time you meet, don't call me Mr. You. Just call me Hexuan, I'm older than you, it's not bad to call me Big Brother You."

"Uh... well..."

"What's your nickname? Wenyou?"

Yu Wenyou was taken aback, as if no one had ever called him that!Good literary rush.Quickly said: "You can call me grapefruit."

"Yuzi?" You Hexuan laughed loudly, "Why did you come up with a nickname for a girl?"

Yu Wenyou rolled his eyes: "No! When I was born, my father happened to be on vacation and bought a big, fragrant and sweet grapefruit, so my mother called it that way. It just so happened that the name should get up early, and it sounds like a set."

"Very cute!" You Hexuan said seriously, "Really!"

"..."

"You were chubby when you were young, right? Now you're skinny."

"Who knows," Yu Wenyou said, "I haven't saved any photos of my childhood. When my mother took me back to her hometown, there was a lot of chaos. There are many things that I can't take care of."

You Hexuan asked again: "Are there no grandparents?"

"Yes," Yu Wenyou smiled wryly, "I remember it, but my father's brothers, grandparents and grandparents have no jobs, and they all rely on their uncles to live. In the countryside, no one has extra money to support me. My father's brothers They all wanted to fight for my dad's pension, but of course my mom wouldn't take it out, and it was a big fight. My uncle even detained me and forced my mom to pay the money. Later, my dad's colleagues found out, and a few of them went over and scared me They said, an uncle? Or a brother? They stole me out of the firewood house. But I couldn’t stay there anymore, and my mother didn’t have a job, so she took me back to my hometown. Grandpa and grandma couldn’t have children in the early years. My mother was very old when I was born, and my uncle was even older when I was born. Anyway, when my mother took me home, both old people had passed away." Yu Wenyou took a long breath and said thoroughly, "I Mom, she was poor, and she was a housewife when my dad was here. Although my dad was away on business for a long time, he always had money, and he could send money to his uncle to study. After my dad died, she came back to her hometown and found out that the house was almost empty. It collapsed. The pension was used to repair the house, and there was not much left. There was no ability to survive, and the life was too miserable, and I was hanged with a rope."

Yu Wenyou sometimes wonders if his dislike of women is directly related to his mother?He hates vulnerability, hates escape.Even if you leave him and run away.As long as he is alive, there is always a glimmer of hope left for him.He was hanged with just a rope, leaving behind a 16-year-old younger brother and a son under the age of 8.The end result can only be that the 16-year-old brother drops out of school to raise the 8-year-old who should have been raised by her.It's not that he doesn't understand his uncle. What is conscience when one is afraid of poverty, one is poor, one is crazy about poverty?When dragging his 8-year-old nephew to starve to death, who told him his conscience?During the rebellious period of youth, they suffered setbacks like heaven and earth, and only a few remained unchanged.But being able to understand my uncle's psychological process does not mean supporting my uncle's choice.In fact, there are still many roads to go, many of which look thorny, but as long as they are crossed, they will be the Yangguan Avenue.But he chose the most inappropriate and narrow path.From this point of view, even though they were both in a difficult childhood, the thoughts of the nephew and uncle are fundamentally different, and it is only a matter of time before they part ways.In fact, they only want each other to live a better life...

The comfortable wind blows the valley, and the warm fire shines on the two of them. It is indeed a good environment to talk about your thoughts.Yu Wenyou was full of melancholy, and became silent.You Hexuan patted his arm, and said softly: "It's over, just live well in the future."

Yu Wenyou took a deep breath, let it out slowly, and paused for a while before saying: "I will. Isn't it going well now? It will get better and better in the future." No matter how hard it is, there are fathers who are fighting at the forefront. what?No matter how difficult it is, can it be more difficult than losing your life?Tonight is just a temporary weakness, eat a full meal and sleep, and tomorrow will be a hero again!As for the sadness, let the wind blowing in the distant rainforest take it away!He still has to pick up the integrity that his uncle threw away bit by bit!
