[Hanwu Huowei Modern] The Story of Han University

There is no greatness without simplicity, goodness, and truth. --Leo Tolstoy

In the second year after Wei Wei's death, Wei Junru found a job.It is not a state-owned enterprise, nor is it a state-owned or collective worker. It is an art school, a contract worker, with half a day off every week, and the job content is to manage students. It needs to live in the school every day, and the salary is 18 yuan per month.Unlike people who stare at the status of state-owned collectives and other approvals, Junru cherishes this job very much. It is impossible for a person with her status and family background to be assigned to a state-owned collective. With such a stable job, she Very satisfied.She would be the first to get up every day, and after cleaning up, she would open the doors of all classrooms so that early risers could enter the classroom for self-study.She is the eldest sister of the family. She has supported the family's burden since she was a child. She has a generous nature and does not remember mistakes. Both students and teachers like her, and she gradually stands out. She is the first school advanced worker among the contract workers.

Director Liu, who is in charge of student affairs, is Principal Cao's daughter-in-law, named Liu Pingyang, and Wei Junru has a very good personal relationship with her.Pingyang always said, Jun Ru has a really good temper, unlike me, I have a hot temper, and I have to speak up when I meet someone who is unhappy.Jun Ru just lowered her head and smiled, a person like her has no reason to be unhappy.

In the autumn of this year, Wei Zifu was admitted to this technical secondary school as he wished, and studied vocal music.Wei Zifu is born with a good voice, known as a lark, and his timbre is also very beautiful.Later, when the Internet was developed, she did not often appear on stage, but there were still high-rise buildings in the first community "What should I do without your voice in my next life-Wei Zifu Special Building".Wei Zifu's personality is gentler than Junru's. She never gets angry, and when encountering particularly unpleasant things, she just frowns and smiles.

In order to make up for living expenses, and to make money and make connections so that Wei Shaoer can return to the city earlier, Wei Zifu would go to the dance hall introduced by Liu Pingyang to sing every night.I don’t have a fixed income. If I sing well, I will get flowers from guests. Each bouquet of flowers in the dance hall sells for ten yuan. At the end, I hand over the received flowers to the backstage. Each bouquet is exchanged for three yuan. One bouquet lasts for one night. To be sold several times.

Anyone who is a little familiar with Wei Qing can feel that he is alienated from women. He rarely takes the initiative to talk to women or find women to cooperate in projects, and he doesn't know how to maintain an intimate relationship with women for a long time, so that he has never been in love. Shun, almost turned into a leftover man... Pingyang once criticized and educated him countless times with heartache, and once wanted to hold a meeting with Liu Jiawei's family, but it failed.

Because the younger brother Liu Che, who cared a lot about his subordinates, persuaded her, "Do you think you have any intimacy with women after being abused by your stepmother for so many years when you were young? Okay, the project over there is just halfway, don't criticize him for anything!"

Although Ping Yang retorted angrily, "You were also oppressed by women when you were young, why don't you feel disgusted?"

Liu Che immediately revealed his true colors and said, "Why don't you feel disgusted? Isn't this a persistent retaliation?"

Pingyang smiled and sighed, but she gave up, even giving up private criticism and education alone, she knew it.

Wei Qing was taken home by Pingyang and Zifu.That year, the art school just participated in the national activity of sending literature and art to the countryside, Pingyang led a performance, and Wei Zifu's solo program was the finale.When they arrived in a county town, after the performance was over, Wei Zifu came to her and said that one of his younger brothers was in a nearby mining area. The eldest sister Wei Junru specially asked him to go and see.

It's less than three o'clock in the afternoon, and I have to take the train to the next place at six o'clock tomorrow morning.This place is very remote. Ping Yang remembers that she was watching on the stage. The audience was swarthy, with black faces, black hands, black necks, and gray-black clothes. With their mouths slightly open, they were amazed at the bright actors on the stage. face and lips.It was impossible for Wei Zifu to go out alone, so she found a small four-wheel cart to pull equipment, and brought four or five young men from the regiment into the mining area.

According to the old address given by Wei Junru, they inquired and found Zheng's house. It turned out to be a small shop with the door closed. They called a few times into the yard, but no one answered.A few people were waiting at the door of the store. Those who came back from the show secretly watched them from afar, but no one dared to come over. Pingyang specially ordered the young men brought here to have a vicious look.

After waiting for more than half an hour, no one came back, and there was no movement in the yard. Some people were clamoring to go back for dinner. Wei Zifu begged everyone, saying that he hadn't seen his younger brother for years, could he wait any longer.Pingyang was so hungry that he panicked, but he didn't leave.Whenever Pingyang thinks about it, she doesn’t understand why she didn’t leave at that time, and she didn’t even have the idea of ​​leaving. She was raised pampered, and that was the first time she knew what it was like to be hungry. After that, she never went hungry again. The only feeling I can remember is flustered. I don’t know if it’s because I’m hungry or because I’m flustered.

Unable to bear the panic, Pingyang ran to knock on the door of a nearby shop. It was a repair shop. The shop was messy. There were clocks, flashlights, shoes, washbasins, lunch boxes on the table...a young man was tinkering with an umbrella.

"Excuse me, is there a restaurant near here?"

The young man tinkering with umbrellas raised his head and smiled warmly, "No. There are only these two shops nearby, why don't you wait for the small shop to come back and buy some food?"

"There are several of us, and we want to eat something hot."

The young man nodded and looked at his watch, "It's time for dinner, or you can eat at my place, it won't do much good."

Pingyang went out to discuss with a few people, and everyone cheered and agreed, thanking the owner of the repair shop.

Following the owner of the repair shop into the yard, everyone was busy with their hands and feet, and it was ready in a while. The dishes were potatoes, eggplants, scrambled eggs, rice and steamed buns, which were extremely rich in the mining area at that time.The owner of the repair shop served rice for everyone, and sent a large bowl of food to the house before returning to eat steamed buns by himself.The rice is freshly made, and the steamed buns are left over from the morning.From the time Ping Yang entered the courtyard, he could hear the old man coughing intermittently in that room.She had a good impression of this young man, so she called him.

"It's my father. There is something wrong here." The young man pointed to his head. "A college student in the Republic of China was originally an engineer in a mining area. Later, he started exercising and had another accident. He couldn't turn around. I was afraid that there would be too many people. He was afraid." , so I didn’t let him out.” After speaking, she smiled apologetically.

Pingyang thought for a while and said, "It's always bad to have a cough. There is an expert in Chang'an Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine who is very good. You can bring him to Chang'an for treatment when you have time. Just ask me." He took a business card from his bag .

"Everyone who works in the mine is like this. It's an old problem. You really have a heart." After finishing speaking, the young man carefully put away his business card...

Several people chatted for a while, there was noise in the yard next door, and at some point, a child came back.Seeing him carrying the heavy bucket, Pingyang poured water into the bucket in a hurry.The young man blew a whistle, and the boy looked back at them and came over.

Pingyang is conceited that he has seen many beauties in his life, there are men and women, some are cold or charming, gentle or masculine, some can make a country and city, some can smile a thousand gold, some can hide a beauty in a golden house, and some can dominate the world. Moon shame flowers, and so on.But when it comes to the eyes alone, no one can compare to this person, they are clear and bright, even if they don't speak, the radiance of those black pupils is extraordinary, which makes people love it very much.

"Haven't you eaten yet? Here you go, eat quickly." The young man walked to the fence and handed over a steamed bun.The child nodded and said in a low voice, "I came back with water, is your family short of drinking water?"

"No shortage, hurry up and eat."

The child took a bite of the steamed bun, and chewed it deliciously without having to eat any vegetables.Just after eating half a steamed bun, I heard voices from the small shop in front of me.

"Mom, I'm so happy today, that show is really good!"

"Yes! The dumplings in the restaurant are also delicious!"

"What's wrong, can mother do it well?"

The child ran into a small shed in the backyard when he heard the sound, and ran back in a hurry. Just as he raised the bucket to pour water, there was the sound of the lock being unlocked. The back door of the small shop opened, and a fat woman walked in. .

"Sao. Bihuo, why did you just come back with water?! Have you washed the clothes yet?!" A loud voice came over, and Pingyang saw that the child was visibly shaking with fright, so he took a step back. , You just did such a little work?! What did you do this afternoon? Did you want to steal something from the shop again? If you don’t look at it and don’t work, you know you’re lazy. Didn’t I give you a good face in the past two days?! If you don’t hit you if the skin is tight, you can’t do it!” The woman went to the wall and touched a wooden stick. Although the child was very frightened, he didn’t dare to hide. He just said in a low voice, "I fell down on the way back." The woman would not listen to his explanation, so she picked up a stick and beat him cracklingly, cursing while beating.

There were more than ten people in the courtyard of the two houses, but no one went up to persuade them. After a long time, the old man in the house staggered out, leaned on the door frame and cursed at the courtyard next door, "It's not human, beast! Animals are worse than beasts! You know how to protect the cub! Why do you always beat him when he’s so young?! Not as good as pigs and dogs! Not as good as pigs and dogs!” The owner of the repair shop hurried forward, helped the old man back to the house, but the old man kept cursing in the house.

His cursing didn't have any effect, but the woman intensified her beating and cursing, "Why do you have an old lunatic backing you up? Do you know who you eat and drink? You eat and drink and don't work! You This beast is worse than a plaything!"

After a long commotion, a lazily voice of a boy came from the small shop and said, "Mom, stop beating, let him wash my school uniform quickly, and I have to go to school tomorrow." The woman was probably tired from beating. , pushed the child's chest with a stick, and signaled him to wash his clothes. Seeing that he started to press the water, he propped the stick against the corner of the wall, patted his clothes and went back to the house.

The group of people in Pingyang were too shocked to speak, and it took a long time for Zifu to ask tremblingly, "Has she always treated him like this?" The young man nodded, "That child was born by her man with another woman, without a registered permanent residence. It’s fine if you beat him to death here.” Zifu covered his face with his hands and began to cry.

Wei Zifu originally brought 1000 yuan and food stamps here, and wanted to thank the Zheng family for raising his younger brother for nearly ten years, but at this time he had no idea at all, and now she just wanted to take him away.Seeing her crying so hard, Liu Pingyang brought a few young men into Zheng's house. The woman refused to let her take them away, saying that it was not easy for her to raise this child. No one was wronged.Seeing how shameless she was, Wei Zifu didn't cry any more. He wanted to take his younger brother away no matter what.That was the only time Pingyang saw Wei Zifu getting tough, and he couldn't see what the woman of the Zheng family was doing, so he chatted all over the place to scare the Zheng family, and the Zheng family also saw that they were people on the stage during the day , I didn't know the details, and I didn't dare to offend. I saw a few young men following me, and I couldn't grab them, so I agreed, but I wanted 500 yuan as compensation.

I had never seen such a shameless person in Pingyang, so I was furious at that time, and I gave 100 yuan, and if I wanted to do it or not, I would rob him.The Zheng family had no choice but to come down.

When Wei Zifu went to the backyard to take Wei Qing away, he was still washing clothes. He was too young when he left home, and he no longer remembered what his sister looked like. Wei Zifu told him softly, "Ah Qing, I am you." Third Sister Wei Zifu, I’ll take you home.” He just looked up at Wei Zifu lightly, and when Wei Zifu was about to reach out to pull him, he hurriedly wiped his hands on his clothes, Wei Zifu felt distressed Terrified, she pulled him over, hugged him and cried.

That night Wei Qing was taken away from Zheng's house by Wei Zifu, with no luggage, and the only souvenirs were the two books and half a steamed bun carefully hidden in the sheep pen.Wei Zifu took it over and looked at it. It was a Chinese and math textbook for the second semester of the third grade, and it was terrible.Pingyang looked at the bedding in the sheepfold and felt uncomfortable. She was someone who had never seen a hard life, and she kept yelling on the way that she should not give the Zheng family 100 yuan.

Wei Zifu wanted to leave some money for the repair shop next door. After all, he ate his food and he still took care of his younger brother. The young man refused to accept anything. He said that it was right for Wei Qing's sister to come to eat. Going to the city to see a doctor would bother Pingyang, so the two parties thanked each other for a long time, and finally separated.

Wei Qing also said goodbye to the old man who had been coughing.

Wei Qing, who has always been slightly afraid of women, is not so alienated from all women, especially Wei Zifu.
