At home, Zhang Yuanchao slumped on the sofa and stared directly at the TV. While eating breakfast, he talked to his son about buying an escape ticket. He originally wanted to give his son a surprise. Zhang Weiguo's great-grandson did not need to be afraid of the terrifying Trisolarans. Starvation will not force you to join the war.

When Zhang Weiguo learned the news while having breakfast, he argued with Zhang Yuanchao and told his face that he had been cheated.

"Father, how much did you spend on the ferry ticket?"

Zhang Weiguo was so angry that veins popped out on his forehead, like a green dragon crawling in the sky.But he was not only angry at his father for spending money to buy a fake ticket, but also hated the scammers. During this special period, all kinds of ghosts and snakes came out. This was taking advantage of the situation. Sooner or later, these people would be pulled out and tried. .

"It didn't cost much. I put my pension into it. Xiao Shi saw that I was not easy to give a discount. I only spent 40 to buy a ferry ticket that others could buy for at least 100 million. I discussed this matter with him. All afternoon, I felt that he was a real person and not a liar. In the end, he couldn't stand my pestering and sold me at a discount because I was pitiful. Xiao Shi is really a good person." There was no lack of sigh in his tone.

He added: "There are not many good guys like this in this era." He looked at Zhang Weiguo with a trace of pride and pride in his eyes.

It seems to be saying that I bought a boat ticket that others couldn't buy for 100 million, but I bought it for 40, just like a child asking for credit for catching a frog in the field, hoping to be recognized by his family.

He did not wait for the blessings of his family, but the icy cold wind or the ruthless heavy rain.

"How can you buy an escape ticket? Didn't we watch the news together? Didn't it also report that many scammers have recently deceived people under the guise of escapeism?" Zhang Weiguo's voice was thick, powerful and low, as if he was suppressing Own.

Zhang Yuanchao said that he was his father and he should not have vented his anger on him. This was all the fault of a liar who should be cut to pieces.After all, he is old, and it is normal for him to be cheated. But even though I had talked about it with him and told him not to buy the ferry ticket, he still secretly bought it behind my back.

There was like a Mount Fuji about to erupt in his heart, covered with the ice and snow of his reason.

"Didn't I tell you that there are many liars in the news? Why do you still want to buy a boat ticket?"

"Xiao Shitan and I talked about this matter all afternoon. I have observed that he is a well-spoken person and his analysis of the current international situation is very thorough. He is not much different from the experts in the news. I also asked someone to inquire about his relationship. , his father used to be the captain of the police force, his situation is really relevant, how could he lie to me, a bad old man?"

Zhang Yuanchao heard that Zhang Weiguo's tone was not good and quickly explained that it was indeed his fault, and he should not have agreed to his son and secretly bought the ferry ticket alone.But for the sake of future generations and the continuation of the bloodline, these are all worth it.

He had already expected to face such a son when he returned home. Instead of losing his temper directly at him, he should have told him to educate him well.

"you......"

Zhang Weiguo stretched out his hand and pointed directly at his father's old face. He was so angry at his father's words that he couldn't help but feel angry. Tears welled up in his eyes.

"Suck..." A sound of sniffling came from the silent room, which was particularly harsh.

He raised his head and sniffed, trying not to let the tears fall. "Give me his phone number! I want to talk to him."

Zhang Yuanchao panicked. His son was a veteran. He usually bleeds without complaining about pain, but now he actually raised his head and sniffed.

He couldn't bear to give Xiao Shi's phone number to his son and asked him to refund the ticket. This was the result of a whole afternoon of drooling, not to mention asking an old friend to find out about Xiao Shi's background and the good cigarettes and wine he spent. Reluctant to drink.

"I deleted the phone number. I bought the ferry tickets, why do I still keep the phone number?"

Zhang Weiguo didn't believe this. This was his father's excuse. How could his father not leave a phone number for such a big deal? Didn't he say that he had someone check the background of the liar?I can only wait for my father to calm down first. It's time to go to work. I can't let my personal problems affect my work. I have to be responsible for the safety of the hospital. The newly arrived Xiao Lin and Xiao Mo also need to take care of me.

"Okay, let's talk later. It's getting late. I'll go to work first."

Zhang Weiguo took two eggs, put on his hat and went out, leaving his uneasy father at home.

Zhang Yuanchao was thinking about it at home, feeling increasingly uncomfortable and wanted to find someone to talk to.

He thought of his neighbor Yang Jiwen, who also lived on the eighth floor. He was a retired middle school teacher. He also said that as people get older, they become more like children. Only by learning more useful things to pass the boring time can such old age be happy.He also accused himself of not caring about national affairs and current news.

The idea of ​​buying my own boat ticket came from watching expert news on TV. I had no hope that humans could defeat the Trisolarans, and I felt a growing sense of crisis in my heart.

Yes, just go find Yang Jiwen.

"Ding dong..."

Suddenly the doorbell rang, and Zhang Yuanchao discovered that the person he was looking for was Yang Jiwen. He seemed to have just come back from a morning stroll outside, looking relaxed.

When Zhang Yuanchao saw him, it was like a shipwreck at sea seeing land, or like a miserable people seeking Marlon Brando.

Holding his hands tightly and not letting go, it was like grasping the light in life, which is called hope.

"I walked around the community and couldn't find you. I didn't see anyone. I didn't expect you to be at home. This is really rare. Don't you go for morning jogs in the community on weekdays? I also found your wife at the vegetable market." Yang Jiwen said.

"Something happened at home today. I had a quarrel with my son. I'm not in the mood to go for a morning run."

"Hey, why are you arguing? Give your son a break. We are all retirees, so we should look back. There will be many happy days ahead. Today is your first day of retirement. Do you have any plans?"

Yang Jiwen saw that Zhang Yuanchao had no reaction, and then said: "If you don't, just follow me. It's nothing to be bored at home. I went upstairs and found it was empty, no one, like a cemetery. Let's go to the senior citizen activity center on the first floor of the community. , take you to see the world and understand the happy life of retirees."

Seeing that Zhang Yuanchao still had no reaction, he asked again: "What happened? I just retired and haven't adapted to working. I have a lot of things to do in the future! You won't have much fun when your son brings your grandson to you, so you can have some fun now." , add some happy colors to your life drawing board."

"It's not about retirement..."

"what is that?"

"About the world structure, humans and aliens..."

"Haha...return to the world structure, aliens. Haven't you never cared about these things? Why are you paying attention now?"

"Yeah, I never paid attention to these before..."

Yang Jiwen suddenly realized something was wrong, and remembered the person Lao Zhang had asked him to check recently.

"You...you wouldn't have bought a boat ticket!!"

"Yes, I can't just watch my descendants suffer and remain indifferent!!"
