Subversion of Rebirth

What is life for?

Many people struggle all their lives to keep their clothes warm and their stomachs full.

Lin Xiao believes that life is first of all an attitude.

A person without a goal spends his whole life in a daze for three meals, living a life of starvation but not rich, and keeps walking in place.This is a way of life for most people...

Those with goals work hard to achieve their goals, step forward step by step, and constantly encourage themselves to forge ahead towards higher and farther goals.It sounds very idealistic, and few people can do it.But those who can do it must be outstanding successful people.

Lin Xiao belonged to the first type of person in his previous life, and in this life he is trying to be the second type of person.

So Lin Xiao insisted on practicing handwriting every day, hard pen calligraphy and brush calligraphy.

Brushes, paper and ink were not cheap at this time, so Lin Xiao discussed with the fourth uncle who worked in the village committee and asked him to bring back the old newspapers that were not used in their office. Use old newspapers to practice calligraphy.

When he came to his aunt's house, Lin Xiao couldn't bring the old newspapers, so he practiced hard-tipped calligraphy for a while. As for the brush calligraphy, he had to see if there was any waste paper in his aunt's house.

If there are no conditions, he will create the conditions by himself, practice and work hard bit by bit.

Lin Xiao really likes the sense of steadfastness that no matter how hard you sow, no matter how much you reap, this is something that the impetuous self in her previous life rarely felt.

Cousins ​​Yi and Cousin Qiang, who live in the same room, admire Lin Xiao, who is only four years old, for being able to sit down at the table and concentrate on practicing calligraphy every day.

My cousins ​​are already in junior high school, and the two of them couldn't help feeling a little ashamed when they saw that their handwriting was not as correct and beautiful as Lin Xiao's.

At this time, Lin Xiao would laugh: "The ruler is short, and the inch is long. My cousin is good at cooking and taking care of housework, and my cousin is good at badminton. These are things that Xiao Xiao can't compare to. It's nothing bad. Sorry..."

The cousin touched Lin Xiao's head, and sighed: "Xiao Xiao is only four years old, and she speaks so old-fashioned. When you grow up, won't you be a little old man?"

Lin Xiao decided to ignore her cousin's ridicule.

Cousin Qiang was very impressed by Lin Xiao's words: "Xiao Xiao is right, as long as we make full use of our strengths. By the way, tomorrow Saturday, I will invite my classmates to ride a bicycle to play badminton, and Xiao Xiao will come with us. No? Cousin will take you to eat delicious ice cream."

"Okay." Lin Xiao planned to take this opportunity to go out and have a look at the town.

The cousin pouted: "I plan to take Xiao Xiao to play with my classmates, and introduce such a cute and cute Xiao Xiao to the classmates." By the way, she showed off how tough this little cousin is, and couldn't help but write a beautiful poem, He will also hold a book in his hands and chew on it with great fascination, and he can recite Tang poems and Song Ci casually.It really made her junior high school students who have studied for so many years feel ashamed.

The corner of Lin Xiao's mouth twitched: "Thank you cousin, but I would rather go out to exercise with my cousin." It is not a pleasant thing for him to be surrounded by a bunch of girls and play like a rare animal.

"Hey, Xiao Xiao is a boy, so he should play with us boys!" Cousin Qiang expressed his determination to pull Lin Xiao into the boys' camp.

"Tch~ What's so fun about sweating under the sun, I'll go shopping with my classmates tomorrow." The cousin curled her lips and said dissatisfiedly, "I'll take Xiaoxiao to swim in the lake on Sunday, don't argue with me! "

"I know~"

... Dare to love his cousins ​​and cousins ​​as a toy?

The next morning, Lin Xiao sat on the back seat of his cousin's bicycle, dangling a pair of calves from side to side, looking at what the town looked like in the late 80s.

At this time, high-rise buildings have not yet been erected, and even the famous government building is still a relatively dilapidated office building, which is completely different from the magnificent office building that rose later.However, the buildings at this time were generally like this, and the buildings in the residential area were even older.

However, it is these old buildings that give people a sense of long history. The neighbors in the old residential area help each other, borrow vinegar and salt, help take care of the children, and what delicious things are there at home Divide up with neighbors.The relationship between the residents of the building is very harmonious and harmonious.

On the other hand, in some brand-new real estate developments in the later generations, the incidents of fighting and scolding between residents, high-rise users throwing objects from high altitudes, littering, etc. frequently occurred.

Whenever thinking of this, Lin Xiao can only shake his head and sigh. While the social economy is developing rapidly, the construction of spiritual civilization seems to be lagging behind a lot, and even regressing.Many people measure things by profit, and they will not do things that are not beneficial to them, and most people become utilitarian.The relationship between people is also stiff and dry because of the word interest.Are these also the price that must be paid for economic development?

With a squeak, Cousin Qiang put his feet on the ground and stopped the bicycle. He didn't expect that the four-year-old cousin behind him was thinking about such profound issues as economic development and spiritual civilization, and he just pointed at the building in front of him triumphantly. asked:

"Xiao Xiao, this is the school we go to, isn't it beautiful?"

Lin Xiao, who came back to his senses, looked up at the relatively new gate of the school, and nodded, "Beautiful." Compared with other buildings, this school is relatively new and has relatively high floors.

Cousin Qiang took Lin Xiao to the security guard at the gate, and waved to greet the security guard: "Uncle Security Guard, good morning!"

"Yo, Xiaoqiang~ you're here today too?" Uncle Security stood at the door and smiled when he saw Cousin Qiang.

Pfft, Xiaoqiang...

At this time, Stephen Chow's classic movie has not yet been staged, and the meaning of Xiaoqiang = cockroach has not been widely spread.So Lin Xiao had a hard time holding back his laughter.

The person who was being teased still chatted with Uncle Security without knowing it: "Yes, I came to play badminton today. I have already borrowed the court and racket from the physical education teacher in advance. By the way, this is my cousin Xiaoxiao."

Lin Xiao poked his head out from the back seat of the car to say hello: "Hello, Uncle Security~"

"Hey, this little boy is so handsome." Uncle Security narrowed his eyes with a smile, looked left and right to see if there was no one else, took out a candy from his pocket and handed it to Lin Xiao, "Come on, uncle will give you some candy~ "

"Thank you uncle~" Very good, I have one more candy accumulated.

Lin Xiao took the candy, thanked him politely, put it in his pocket, waved goodbye to Uncle Security, forced his cousin to continue to drive him around the campus.

As soon as he entered the school gate, there was a wide and lush school road. Lin Xiao sat in the back seat and looked up at the intertwined shady branches and leaves on both sides of the school road, breathing the fresh air in his nose, feeling extremely comfortable and relaxed.

At the end of the school road is the main teaching building of my cousin and the others. Today is Saturday, and the teaching building is quiet without a trace of people, but the get out of class bell still rings on time in the quiet campus.You can imagine how lively the campus will be when the get out of class is over at this time.

Strong cousin's bicycle bypasses the teaching building, and puts the bicycle near the sports field next to the teaching building.There is a 400-meter runway, two basketball courts, and two badminton courts on the playground.

From a distance, Lin Xiao saw several figures standing on the badminton and playing.

"Ah Qiang~ this way~" A tall and thin boy saw Cousin Qiang approaching sharply and waved his hands from afar.

Cousin Qiang also waved back, pulling Lin Xiao and running over quickly.

"Hey, Ah Qiang, why did you bring your child here?" The tall and thin boy came over and looked at Lin Xiao curiously.

Cousin Qiang punched the boy: "Go! What is my child? I have a child at a young age? This is my cousin Xiao Xiao. Xiao Xiao, this is my classmate A Jing, you call him Brother Jing That's it."

"Brother Jing is good~" is still a must-have greeting.

"Aqiang, are you here?" At this time, the other side of the field also stopped, and a clear female voice came over.

Lin Xiao looked around and saw a tall girl in a pink sportswear just finished a badminton sparring match.She came to the sidelines and picked up a towel to wipe off her sweat. Her face was flushed after exercising. Her facial features were already pretty, but now she looks even more beautiful and charming.

I don't know if it was Lin Xiao's illusion. Cousin Qiang held his hand tightly, his body stiffened for a moment, and then he greeted him: "Xiaoyan, are you here too? I, I heard that you might come over, I didn't expect You really came today, hehe..."

Looking at the cousin who was a bit at a loss and incoherent, Lin Xiao covered her eyes with her small hands: Can you be so nervous, cousin?Anyone with a discerning eye can see that you have a crush on this beautiful girl.

"Ah! What a cute little brother, Ah Qiang, is this your child?" The girl named Xiaoyan discovered Lin Xiao's existence and asked with glowing eyes.

"Yes, yes, this is my cousin Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao, this is sister Xiaoyan." The cousin continued to speak incoherently.

Brother Ah Jing rolled his eyes and muttered in a low voice: What he said was right, but what I said was wrong.

"Hello, sister~" Lin Xiao was also very speechless to his cousin's reaction.

"Xiao Xiao, there are biscuits in my sister's bag. Come and chat with my sister while eating. I just finished a game and I'm just tired. You two can take care of yourself." After finishing speaking, Xiaoyan pulled Xiaoyan Xiao came to sit on the bench on the sidelines.

Seeing Xiaoyan walking away, Ah Jing looked at Cousin Qiang with contempt: "I seriously doubt that you brought your cousin here today to strike up a conversation with Xiaoyan."

Not to mention Ah Jing, Lin Xiao thought so too.He remembered that his cousin said yesterday that playing badminton is a boy's sport, why did a girl come out suddenly today?Moreover, his cousin behaved so abnormally that he had to doubt his cousin's motive for bringing him here.

Cousin Qiang coughed: "It's nothing, I just thought Xiao Xiao would be bored staying at home, so I brought him out to play here." His tone was a little guilty.

If Lin Xiao was present and heard these words, he would definitely not be stingy with his white eyes and contempt.

Lin Xiao is dealing with the enthusiasm of the beautiful girls.

"Xiao Xiao, do you want some biscuits? This is strawberry-flavored~" Xiaoyan took out a bag of biscuits from her bag and coaxed.

Lin Xiao twitched: Actually, he doesn't like sweets very much.But adults like to stuff him with candy, sweet biscuits and the like.These are relatively rare snacks in the countryside. He usually accumulates candies for his elder brothers at home, and Xiao Shu for them to eat.

As for sweet biscuits and the like that can't be kept for a long time, he just eats a little bit deliberately, and generally doesn't eat more.

"Thank you, sister." Xiao Xiao took a biscuit, held it in both hands, and gnawed it while watching the people's game on the field.

The small appearance is as cute as a hamster holding sunflower seeds and slowly nibbling on it, with that white and ruddy little face, coupled with those big wet eyes, and the delicate way of eating.

Ahh~ so cute~

Xiaoyan's eyes glowed: "Xiao Xiao, you are just like my hamster!" They are as cute.

Lin Xiao was thoughtful: "Hamster?" He remembered that at this time, the pet hamster had not spread widely in China.If a family can afford hamsters at this time, the general family background is not ordinary.

"Hmm! Small, with big black eyes, very cute!" Xiaoyan thought that Lin Xiao didn't know what a hamster was, so she patted his head while explaining.

Woohoo~ The hair is soft and feels so good~

Lin Xiao was speechless again. It was okay to be a girl in his previous life, but in this life he was praised so much as a boy. Should he be happy or depressed?

"Xiao Xiao is Ah Qiang's cousin. I don't think he took you out to play before?"

"Well, my family is in X County, which is far away from here. Recently, I came to my cousin's house with my mother to live for a while."

At this moment, a strange voice came in: "County X? Isn't that the backcountry? Who brought this country bumpkin here?"

The two turned their heads and found that it was the boy who was fighting with Xiaoyan just now who was talking.That guy was pretty handsome, but the contempt in his eyes and the harsh line on his lips ruined his good looks.

Lin Xiao frowned. Sure enough, there are people like this everywhere. They are always complacent about their urban hukou, and despise and ridicule rural people.

Xiaoyan was not happy anymore, and stared at the boy standing aside: "Fan Youzhi, Xiaoxiao and I are chatting, what are you talking about? Also, the teacher told us that all people are created equal, and we should not look down on country people If there were no farmers who would farm for you, where would you get the rice and vegetables to eat?" No matter how well-bred Ren Xiaoyan was, she was so annoyed by the boy's words that she couldn't help calling out the boy's full name.

Besides, although Xiao Xiao's clothes are a bit plain, but her conversation and manner are good, and she is so delicate and well-behaved, especially the conspicuous Guanyin mole between her eyebrows makes him even more cute. How can Fan Youzhi discriminate against country people so much?

Pfft...Fan Youzhi, childish...God knows how his parents came up with such a cute name...

Since everyone claimed to be childish, Lin Xiao graciously didn't care about them.

"Xiaoxiao, what are you laughing at?" Xiaoyan found that Xiaoxiao was not angry, but laughed instead, and asked curiously.

Well, it's impolite to laugh at someone's name.But since the other party was rude first, Lin Xiao had nothing to be polite about.

He whispered something next to Xiaoyan's ear, and then Xiaoyan also burst out laughing, the silver bell-like laughter set off her flowery smile even more brilliantly.

"Hehe...Fan Youzhi, you're naive..." Why didn't she find this funny title before?How did Xiaoxiao's little head spin so fast?

The classmate named Fan Youzhi was stunned by Xiaoyan's smile at first, and it took him a long time to realize that they were joking about his name, and his complexion turned green and pale all of a sudden, very exciting.

At this time, Cousin Qiang also noticed something was wrong here, and hurried over: "What's wrong? What happened?"

The arrival of Cousin Qiang made the embarrassing Fan Tongxi find an outlet: "Yo, it turned out to be Qiangzi from the second class. You brought this little bumpkin in? When did our school allow these outsiders to come in? I'll go back and let Dad My mother complained to the school, saying that the school actually allowed some dubious outsiders to come in and harass the school order!"

Fan Youzhi's radical words offended everyone present, and the atmosphere froze all of a sudden.

"Student Fan, what is your definition of an outsider? If you say that, do your parents also count as an outsider?" Cousin Qiang was the first to attack Fan Youzhi when he saw that Fan Youzhi said that about his cousin.

"How can my parents be counted? They are my parents and relatives!" Fan Youzhi knew that he had spoken impulsively just now, and he regretted the moment he finished speaking, but he couldn't help but start to refute when he heard what Cousin Qiang said.

"Oh? Is that so? I remember that you brought your little cousin into school to play last week. Does that mean that you are also a member of the harassing school order?" Xiaoyan was also irritated by Fan Youzhi's words. asked coldly.

Hearing Xiaoyan's pressing questions, Fan Youzhi lost his momentum, and said stubbornly: "Well, what about that? My cousin is from the city, and this kid is from the country. God knows if he will put some dirty things or something bring them to school?"

"Ahem..." Xiaoxiao said at this time, "Brother Fan Youzhi, first, I insist on taking a bath every day, and my mother made the clothes for me specially. Although it is not as good-looking as yours, I firmly believe that I am better than now You still need to be clean, at least I don’t have sweat all over my body.”

Hearing this, Xiaoyan couldn't help but burst out laughing.And Fan Youzhi's complexion began to turn blue.

"Second, grandpa ** carried out the policy of encircling the cities from the countryside. Relying on the millet and padded jackets of the peasant uncles, the uncles of the Red Army won the victory of the revolution and the new China today. Brother Fan Youzhi, you say that, things from the countryside It’s all dirty words, so what did the uncles of the Red Army rely on to eat to replenish their physical strength and participate in the battle? Without the support of the peasant uncles back then, how could you have a happy life now? Brother Fan, did your family never have Did I teach you—you can't forget your roots?" Lin Xiao's crisp childish voice was clear, and the words landed soundly, and Fan Youzhi, who spoke with clear eyes and unhurried tone, couldn't refute.

"Third, about the difference between me and your cousin you mentioned. I think that apart from the innate conditions of gender and age that we can't change, things like household registration and identity are artificially added by you to satisfy you. What I think is just the vanity of city people. If you insist that this is a kind of distinction, then I can only express no opinion on your quality. In addition, Brother Fan, the clothes you wear and the food you eat in your mouth, Which one is not from the hard work of the peasant uncles from the countryside? If all the things from the countryside are dirty, then brother, shouldn’t you spit out all the clothes you are wearing and everything you have eaten in your mouth?”

What Lin Xiao said was so wonderful that Xiaoyan couldn't help but applaud him.

"Cousin, I think we'd better go, lest people say that we disturbed the order of the school." Facing this kind of person, even the best mood will turn bad.He would rather go back to accompany his mother, and practice calligraphy is better than here.

At this time Xiaoyan also said: "Wait, I'm not in the mood to play today. Xiaoxiao and Aqiang, do you want to go to my house to play?" It's rare to meet such a cute little brother, how can he let him go so easily Walk?

Cousin Qiang was stunned by the good news. Lin Xiao tugged at his hand before he realized it: "Ah? Good, good!" Being invited by a beautiful woman, and having the opportunity to get close to him, he certainly wished for it.

Hehe, bringing Xiao Xiao here today is indeed a wise move!When he comes back on Monday, he has the capital to show off to everyone. The other boys in the grade will definitely be jealous!

"Wait, Xiaoyan, didn't you promise me to go to the movies with me today after playing ball?" Lin Xiao questioned Fan Youzhi's face, which could only be described as pig liver.Now that he listened to Xiaoyan's words, he began to draw closer to the bottom of the pot.

Xiaoyan glanced at him, and said: "Thanks to someone, I'm not in any mood today. Xiao Xiao, Ah Qiang, let's go. My sister has a lot of delicious candy at home, as well as beautiful comic books Oh~Of course, if you want to exercise, my house actually has a badminton court, a swimming pool, and a table tennis room~" If you want to exercise, there are facilities at home, but she was invited by her classmates today to exercise with them Just an exchange of feelings.

Shame, it seems that Xiaoyan's family background is not generally good, even has a private swimming pool.

After finishing speaking, she packed up her things, took Xiao Xiao's hand, called Cousin Qiang, left Fan Youzhi with an ugly face, and left in a cool manner.

He said hello to Brother Jing, and Cousin Qiang followed in awe under the envious eyes of all the boys.

Lin Xiao's black line, cousin, can't you restrain your expression a little bit?I'm so sorry...
