On Rickshaw Pullers and Lecturers

When Chen Goudan met Mr. Zhou, it was not a rainy or snowy day, but an ordinary sunny day. He was wiping his sweat on the edge of the intersection, watching the comings and goings timidly. crowd.

As for Chen Goudan, people are as cheap as their names. There are six males in the family of nine, and he is the sixth child. He gritted his teeth and took his nickname as his real name. When he became an adult, the family land was allotted, so his father meaningfully called him aside, gave him a little money for going to the city, and sent him away; Fortunately, not long after entering the city, he met some folks who kindly introduced him to a place to pull carts and found a way to make a living.

It’s not that long. Not long ago, he became a rickshaw driver in the streets of this city. Maybe he changed places, so his shyness grew. Seeing those guests coming Walking back and forth, he was actually too timid to ask a question.

When the relatives saw him like this, they sighed, and only asked him to wait a few more days to see, if not, they would probably go to the wharf to do the hard work and have a meal.

Today is probably the last day...Chen Goudan knocked on the handlebar in silence. A person like him really can't do anything like what Lao Wu said?

"go?"

It's hard to believe that there are more cart pullers, but the scholar in front of him actually chooses someone with a low life like him who is not enthusiastic.

"Ah... ah, um, um, um, um!" The first order these days, Chen Goudan was willing to go all out, and frantically wiped the floor inside with a clean handkerchief, then shyly stepped aside.

"You, you, please..."

"It's all right, I saw that there was no one here, so I came over to give it a try. It turned out that it was a cart puller, why didn't you take the initiative to yell at me?"

This scholar really looks good when he smiles, his two dimples are shining under the sun, and his eyes are bent, what a beauty!Chen Goudan, who had never read any books, praised him from the bottom of his heart. He used all the words he knew, but he still couldn't describe this great benefactor.

"Ah...well, yes yes yes..."

He nodded, and seemed to know a thing or two, so he stopped asking, paid some deposit, and just sat in quietly.

In Chen Goudan's ear, he said that the place he was going to was going forward, then turning left into Jining Middle School after Huijiang Road.

"Mister, is that, that person, that person?"

On the way, Chen Goudan asked boldly. He didn't think about the answer from the people behind him. He just said casually. He heard from his relatives that the cart pullers are talkative, they can talk a lot about everything, and there are many regular customers. , so most of the car pullers in this city have regular customers.

He originally thought that he would also be in vain, after all, he never thought that this matter would be suitable for a person like him.

When I was young, because I was too silent, my father took me to see the doctor. The barefoot doctor said that I probably had some kind of bug in my mouth, and I had to eat ashes. It was better to eat something that had just been extinguished in the stove. All right; then he ate a stomach full of ashes, but luckily he managed to survive.I also know that people should talk more, preferably with a bunch of sweet words. The fifth child in front of him was originally at the back, but his mother was very happy when he coaxed him to tell his father about the bedside wind, which gave him an extra piece of land. When it comes to him, it's gone.

But he still doesn't speak if he doesn't speak, and now he has to speak in order to survive.

Fortunately, his guest was really, really... Chen Goudan's face, which had been blown red by the wind, turned red again.

So lovely!real.

"Jining Middle School? No, I teach there, but I don't live there."

The voice was gentle and gentle, even better than the voice of a flower in the village that his fifth brother said had the best temper - Chen Goudan, who had automatically added filters, did not accept any rebuttals.

"Ah... sir..."

He stammered, but there was no delay in the movement of his feet, which made Zhou Long sitting behind him feel good.

"Zhou Long, my surname is Zhou, my name is Long, you can call me Mr. Zhou, maybe we will meet often in the future."

Like spring rain, like willows blowing on the face, it really stirred the mind of this ignorant Chen Goudan.

"Yes... yes yes yes, Zhou, Mr. Zhou!"

The voice he shouted was not stuttering, unexpectedly calm, just like Zhou Long saw this driver for the first time - his first impression of him was that he was calm, he didn't bend over the top of Mount Tai, and didn't change his expression when the sky fell That—now, come to think of it, might be too honest.

"I don't know what your name is?"

Zhou Long lifted his bag up and stared at the back of the coachman's head, only seeing his short braided hair fluttering in the wind.

"Surname, first name?"

Although he hadn't seen the coachman's appearance, he almost immediately remembered that after he approached, the man's blushing face exuded an invisible charm on his dark skin.

No matter what kind of person, born in this world, has its own personal beauty.

"I... I, my name is low, I'm afraid it will spoil your ears, Mr. Zhou... Well, that, my, my surname is Chen...Chen..."

Chen Goudan said his name in a low voice. It was the first time he realized that his name was so awkward and so bad. It was really loud. He felt that he insulted the ears of the man behind him.

But Zhou Long just smiled lightly and said, "Chen Goudan, it's a very common name, don't have to be so inferior. Goodbye, see you later."

Chen Goudan looked up, and it turned out that the road had come to an end, and the four big characters of Jining Middle School were shining on the signboard.This long journey went by so fast. He watched Mr. Zhou get out of the car and handed him the remaining money; he took it carefully and took a bite of the ocean, which was harder than his teeth. hard!Biting his heart to blossom.

"Haha."

Zhou Long chuckled, patted him on the shoulder, then turned and walked towards the school.

And Chen Goudan looked at his back, which was as tall and straight as the green pine next to him, gritted his teeth, and suddenly called out to him, "Sir, wait!".

Zhou Long stopped, turned around suspiciously, and was distracted by the sudden stuffing of Dayang in his hand.

"you--"

I saw that Chen Goudan exerted all his strength, looked him in the eyes, turned around, picked up his rickshaw and ran, running fast, like a thief.

Obviously, it's just a refund.

Zhou Long smiled and shook his head.

Next time, give it back to him.

So he turned around and continued walking towards the school, putting the ocean into his pocket.

This day is just an ordinary day, just a sunny day.
