Life is more than just living

Liu Jiaxin went to the kitchen with Chen Xu and asked in surprise: "You don't have that intention for Zhang Yong, right?" Chen Xu ignored her and washed the dishes. After cleaning up the kitchen, Chen Xu returned to the cabin where he lived. Liu Jiaxin hurriedly followed. She didn't want to let Chen Xu go and continued the topic just now. Chen Xu looked at Liu Jiaxin and smiled helplessly. If gossip was a course, then Liu Jiaxin would undoubtedly be excellent.

Liu Jiaxin asked reluctantly: "Is there a story between you and Zhang Yong? To be honest, I am telling the truth. I used to admire Brother Xiaoyong when I was in junior high school and high school. He was cool and cool at that time, a bit like a character in a Hong Kong and Taiwan TV series. It's a pity that he didn't like me, and he didn't want to talk to me when I talked to him. But I could tell, he liked you at that time, right?" Chen Xu didn't want to answer this question. Liu Jiaxin stared at Chen Xu, not missing her every expression, "I guessed it right, right? I knew it was like this. I was quite jealous of you at that time. Hey, you said there was something wrong with my memory, Or has he lost his temper after being in jail? I used to think he was cool and cool, but looking at him now, doesn’t he feel like he’s just a lost dog?”

Chen Xu frowned. Liu Jiaxin's mouth was really unpleasant, and she kept saying, "I heard my grandma say that Zhang Yong beat Wang Yu so hard a few years ago, maybe it was because of you! Not to mention, he was very brave. He's so heroic, standing up for the woman he likes, it's so handsome just thinking about it!" Chen Xu really doesn't like the current Liu Jiaxin, but after going to work, he has come into contact with all kinds of people, and now he can deal with such people.

Chen Xu interrupted Liu Jiaxin, "Okay, don't make endless guesses there. Don't you know Brother Xiaoyong? He has a bit of a hero complex. Wang Yu always bullied me in the past. Brother Xiaoyong is Lu. Yell at the injustice." Obviously, Liu Jiaxin didn't want to stop gossiping, so she asked again, "Did you really break up with your boyfriend?" Chen Xu nodded, "His family disagreed." Liu Jiaxin said thoughtfully : "I think there's something wrong. That stinky woman Meng Xiangyu seems to be trying to steal your boyfriend. He was very close to your boyfriend's mother at that time." Chen Xu sighed softly. He's celebrating the New Year. This Liu Jiaxin The scenery is really a good one. I have to admit that although Liu Jiaxin is not lovable, she is not stupid. Chen Xu doesn't like this topic either. So she took the initiative to divert Liu Jiaxin's attention. She asked Liu Jiaxin if she had a boyfriend? Are you busy with studies? What are your plans after graduation? Once interrupted, Liu Jiaxin stopped gossiping endlessly, and instead talked freely about her employment ideas.

When it was almost noon, Grandma Liu took Liu Jiaxin back. Chen Xu breathed a sigh of relief and could finally feel a little cleaner. The arrival of Liu Jiaxin allowed Chen Xu to fully understand the meaning of the word "noisy". Chen Xu thought, people are really weird sometimes. In the past, Grandma and Grandma Liu were very good neighbors, but then Grandma's situation changed and she went to pick up garbage to make a living, and Grandma Liu gradually drifted away from her. So much so that they no longer interacted with each other, but now the two have become good sisters who talk about everything. The same goes for Chen Xu and Liu Jiaxin. After Liu Jiaxin changed from Jiaxin's sister that Chen Xu admired to someone who often bullied her, they later became superficial friends. As for Zhang Yong, he was once an older brother whom he relied on and trusted, but later bullied him. Chen Xu never thought that one day she would be relieved to help Zhang Yong introduce jobs and give him food.

Then Chen Xu thought about the policeman who came this morning. The police is a noble profession that fights crime and protects people's lives and property. But from what Zhang Yong said, he felt accustomed to being tortured to extract confessions. What does that mean? Chen Xu recalled this man's appearance and felt that this man was not a vicious-looking person. As a man who had been a policeman for many years, he should have caught many real criminals. This was an act that could be regarded as a hero. But for a person who was beaten into prison because of torture to extract a confession, such a policeman is simply a devil. So he is a good person? Bad guy? It's hard to define. Sometimes, the world is not black and white.

However, often having rights, possessing material things, mastering more knowledge and gaining insights, seems to have priority and initiative, thinking that one is qualified, can dominate others, despise others, and even influence the fate of others. After so many years, Chen Xu no longer wants to shout about fairness or unfairness. He can only continue to improve himself and gradually get rid of the fate of being bullied, despised, and dominated.

Since breakfast was late, grandma meant that two meals would be enough. There was a lot left over from yesterday's meal. Chen Xu made two new dishes and heated up the leftover dishes from yesterday. It was another sumptuous meal. When they were about to eat, grandma suddenly said to Chen Xu: "Xu, there is something I want to discuss with you." Chen Xu looked up at grandma and waited for the next step. Grandma mustered up her courage and said, "This is what happened. I have been thinking about it these past two days. Xiaoyong next door has been in prison for more than ten years. I did something wrong. Now I think about what I have done in my life. The two most unethical things are not treating you well, and suing Xiaoyong. In fact, what is a bad person? What is a good person? A bad person cannot do bad things all his life, and a good person cannot do good things all his life." Chen Xu looked at grandma in surprise. He didn't expect that grandma, an uneducated person, would have such a consciousness. I heard grandma continue to say: "Xiaoyong has been in there for more than ten years. Now that he has come out, it is not easy to do anything. During the Chinese New Year, there is nothing serious to eat in his cold room. I thought about our meals for a while. Okay, let’s ask him to come and have dinner with us to celebrate the New Year! From now on, we can’t control him as much as he likes, but today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so don’t let him be miserable alone!” Chen Xu nodded, Said: "Okay! Grandma, please go over and ask him to come for dinner! As a big girl, I always go in and out of his yard, and it's not good for the neighbors to see me. Besides, I haven't sorry for him, so it's up to you to do this favor."

Chen Xu prepared the rice, set out the bowls and chopsticks, and served the dishes. Grandma went to the house next door to ask Zhang Yong to come for dinner. I don’t know what grandma said in the past. After a while, Zhang Yong came over with grandma. The three of them sat down to eat, and grandma kept helping Zhang Yong pick up the food. With Zhang Yong here, there wasn't much food left on the table. After the meal, he helped Chen Xu clear away the dishes. Chen Xu poured him a cup of tea. The few of them sat there chatting for a while without watching TV. When it was getting dark, Zhang Yong said he was going to the hospital, and grandma grabbed a handful of peanuts and melon seeds from the plate and stuffed them into Zhang Yong's pocket. When Zhang Yong left, grandma said: "You can leave the key. I will go there early to help you light the fire tomorrow morning, so that you will not be cold when you come back to sleep." Zhang Yong happily handed over the key to grandma.

Early the next morning, grandma went over early to help Zhang Yong light the fire. Seeing that the two people interacted well, Chen Xu told his grandma that he was going to visit Liu Jingsheng's family. She took out her mobile phone and checked online and bought the ticket when she saw it. That afternoon, Chen Xu rushed to her ideal home.
