I really don't want to be a teacher

"...Hey, anyway, I can move my back. Xiaoyi sit down..."

"... Let's go, let's go..."

The family passed by Lian Ge,

Lian Ge walked by, and then walked forward.

……

"...Brother, where are we going today?"

"...Go and buy some clothes for you. Look how long you haven't changed your clothes. My brother is back now, can I buy some new clothes for you?"

"... Really? Then I want to buy a few more, I want three..."

"……Row."

……

"...Mm...Mr. Lian, you are back..."

"...Mr. Lian, you are back. I'm sorry, Mr. Lian, my brother has only been able to speak for a while, and his words are not smooth."

……

"...Listen, it seems that the village is going to sing an opera tonight... Changbanpo."

"...Dad, when I grow up, I also want to be a firefighter..."

"...Second brother, go to the boss's house and give a shout. Our family will have a reunion dinner at noon."

"Mom, let's make tofu and tamales at night. Grandpa likes it, and so do I."

Listen and watch.

A little silent, Lian Ge's eyes were a little lost,

go again.

Pass through the road in the village, and then pass a few houses,

Towards the village, the old house is approaching.

The number of residents on the side of the road gradually decreased, and the surrounding area followed suit and became quieter again.

……

"...The drawing is really good."

There are some weeds on both sides of the road, but the road is relatively wide and flat due to being stepped on.

Next to this somewhat quiet road, there is a drawing board, and a young man sits in front of the drawing board,

Facing the outside of the road, there are stretches of paddy fields growing some seasonal crops, and mountains and forests in the distance. Holding a pen, it seems to be writing about life.

A couple, arm in arm, passed by the side of the road, stopped behind the sketcher, waited for the young man to stop writing, and then said aloud in admiration,

The young man who sketched turned around, looked at the couple with a smile on his face,

"Sister Chen, are you going out?"

"Take you, Sister Chen, to sit down for the obstetric examination."

The man responded, supported his wife, and then looked back at his wife.

The woman's belly is a little swollen, and she has been pregnant for some time.

"...Sister Chen, how about I draw a picture for you."

"Okay. But you have to hurry up a little bit, your sister Chen can't stand for long now."

The woman smiled and agreed.

……

Looking at the people on the side of the road, Lian Ge slowed down a bit,

He paused for a moment, then turned his gaze away,

Move your feet and pass by these people,

When they saw Lian Ge, they greeted Lian Ge happily,

Lian Ge just nodded and didn't respond much.

Just listen to the voices,

Turning his gaze again, he looked at the old house not far away.

walk forward.

……

"...Mr. Lian, we are going to sing Changbanpo again tonight. It is in the open space at the entrance of the village. If you have time, you must come and see it."

Lian Ge walked not far from the gate of the old house, and then stopped.

Look at the courtyard door.

The courtyard door was wide open.

Outside the courtyard gate, an older man stood,

The old man still had some facial makeup on his face, and he was talking to another person by the door with a smile.

Another person by the door came out of the yard, an old man with gray hair,

The old man stood by the door, and after listening to the old opera singer's words, he turned his head and looked at Lian Ge on this side.

Looking back, in response to the old man's words,

"If I have time, I'll come over and take a look. If you don't have time, you can sing it yourself. It's the same. There are so many people in the village watching it, and I'm not the only one missing."

"...Success. Then, Mr. Lian, I'll go there first."

Smiling, the old man nodded again, turned around again, and walked towards the village.

Walking to Lian Ge's side, he paused again,

"... Mr. Lian, you are back."

The old man looked at Lian Ge, and said aloud with some joy.

Lian Ge looked at the old man, just nodded, and didn't say anything more.

Then he moved his foot away, walked towards the courtyard gate, and walked over.

The old man stood up again, turned around and looked around, and walked into the village again.

move your feet,

Lian Ge walked to the open gate, looked at the old man standing by the gate,

The old man standing by the door stomped his feet again, turned his head again, and looked at Lian Ge,

Looking at Lian Ge, the old man gradually showed some smiles on his face, smiling slightly,

"Would you like a glass of water?"

The old man asked Lian Ge with a slight smile.

Listening, Lian Ge couldn't help showing some smiles on his face,

"That's annoying."

Lian Ge is very familiar with this old man's face,

It's just that it's different from those acquaintances in the village. The old man's face is that of himself who doesn't know how old he is.

Smiling, Lian Ge looked at the old man and responded aloud,

Just turning around a bit, Lian Ge looked towards the village behind him again, the smile on his face faded a bit, his eyes were a little lost,

In the village, there were still people coming and going, and the voices were mixed with the breeze from time to time, and it was still lively.

Pausing his gaze, Lian Ge turned around again.

The old man was still smiling slightly, and moved a little away from the courtyard door.

Lian Ge moved his foot away again and walked into the yard.

……

In the courtyard, the layout of the real old house is basically the same.

Lian Ge walked into the courtyard without closing the courtyard door.

The old man followed, walked into the house, poured a glass of water, and handed it to Lian Ge.

"How is it here?"

The old man stood in front of Lian Ge, smiled and asked aloud.

Lian Ge stretched out his hand and took the glass of water. There was some mist lingering on the glass.

Looking at the old man again, he paused for a while, a little silent,

"Very lively."

After a pause, Lian Ge turned his gaze a little more,

Standing in this courtyard, the gaze seems to have crossed the courtyard wall, looking at the familiar figures and scenes in the distant village.

Listening to Lian Ge's words, the old man smiled more,

"Here, Huo Siguo found it. When they got to the girl in the white dress, they would go out for a walk in their spare time. They would go to the old Yangtou house in the village to eat pea curds. They often took pictures, and the pictures of the two of them were no longer there. With just that one, they will be married soon."

The old man smiled slightly and said to Lian Ge,

Amidst the voice, the old man's body gradually began to dissipate,

In other words, the old man himself does not exist.

"Xiaodie has grown up, her brother often comes back to visit her, and every time he takes her to buy some clothes..."

The figure of the old man gradually dissipated, and the voice sounded, and the voice gradually became younger.

Lian Ge turned around again, watching the figure gradually dissipate, the faded old man, listening to some voices ringing in his ears,

"...Ruirui still likes to eat apples, and she won't forget that her father likes to eat pears."

"...The old lady who was looking for an oiled paper umbrella always asks her wife to bring an umbrella every time she goes out. This oiled paper umbrella is not so precious, because her wife is still there."

The words of the old man resounded, the figure gradually dissipated, and the voice of the words gradually faded away and subsided.

Lian Ge stood in the yard holding the cup of water that was still overflowing with mist, watching the figure of the old man in front of him disappear.

He paused his eyes for a long time, and also paused some movements, but stood in this yard, a little silent.

In the yard, it was a little quiet.

……

It was a long time again.

In the yard, it was still quiet.

Holding the cup of steaming water, Lian Ge made another move,

A little silent, Lian Ge turned around, from the next room,

I took a stool out and sat in the yard,

Looking in front of me, looking into the distance,

I don't know what to think about, a little silent, and my eyes are a little lost.

The cup of hot water in his hand has been overflowing with steam, and it doesn't seem to be cold.

In the yard, there are more and more cases.

Outside the yard, in the village, it seemed that it was becoming more and more lively.

……

Overhead, the sun gradually climbed into the sky, and then gradually slanted towards the west.

Sitting on the stool in the yard, Lian Ge didn't get up, but just looked in front of him, looked into the distance, and listened to some voices coming from his ears with the breeze.
