Zero-sum game

Mo Rui sat under the steps and yawned, looking bored at the staff coming and going.

Seeing Zhou Xingchuan come out after changing his clothes, someone came up to fix his microphone, and then he stood up and said, "Be careful with Ding Yiqiang these days, he is in a bad mood, don't hit the gun."

Zhou Xingchuan didn't know why, and asked, "What happened to him?"

Mo Rui looked around and said in a low voice, "Sister Jinzhu got the inside news that her son was arrested for committing a crime, and now the victim's parents plan to sue. Ding Yiqiang tried his best to suppress the news, but it must be the case when it comes out. It's been two days, it won't be long."

"Criminal crime?" Zhou Xingchuan asked, "What happened to his son?"

Mo Rui whispered something in his ear, Zhou Xingchuan frowned, "I see."

When the filming started, Ding Yiqiang could see that he was in a bad mood, and he didn't say much.

Another talkative Song Tongtong, after being photographed smoking last time, was praised by his former teammates for black material. It really caused a lot of blood and blood. Recently, he also kept a low-key personality and became a good girl under the camera.

To be honest, Zhou Xingchuan actually felt that his ears were much cleaner.

In summer, the weather is hot and there are many mosquitoes. After shooting the sleeping scene for 10 minutes in the house used for shooting, everyone hid in their nanny cars or RVs and slept.

Zhou Xingchuan walked behind, took his mobile phone after going out, and called Wu Shuyu first.

"Hello?" Wu Shuyu's voice came amidst the roar of something unknown.

"How about the thing I asked you to help with yesterday?" Zhou Xingchuan asked.

"I haven't found it yet, so anxious?" Wu Shuyu shouted at the top of his voice.

Zhou Xingchuan looked up at the dark mountains at night, "Well, it's hot."

"I didn't realize that you were so enthusiastic about public welfare before," Wu Shuyu said, "Don't talk about it, I'm going to start work."

According to his father's instructions, Wu Shuyu went to work as a workshop director in his own factory.I don’t know why this incident aroused his enthusiasm. He is very active at work every day.

Shen Yan was reading a book under the light, and moths were attracted to them, and they slammed into the window glass outside the house.

There is only one small fan running in the room. Although it is small, it has enough horsepower, which is enough for him alone.

The elderly phone placed by the table vibrated twice, and he knew that Zhou Xingchuan had sent another text message.

It was really scary that the phone rang suddenly, Shen Yan turned it off after some research, otherwise Zhou Xingchuan would be annoying if he always sent text messages.

"Tomorrow we have a day off

You don't have to go to class on Saturday

Can I find you?"

Shen Yan stared at these three lines for a while, but still didn't reply. He turned off the desk lamp, lay down on the bed and closed his eyes.

The chirping of insects and frogs outside the window never stopped, and he couldn't actually fall asleep.

No matter what he said or thought, after meeting Zhou Xingchuan again, his life in Xiaohe Village, which was as stable as the deep sea, changed completely.

Those things in the past that were originally buried in the deep sea have also been dug out, and they are painful like an old disease.

In fact, he didn't intend to give up his studies at first, but he had nowhere to go. After he was discharged from the hospital, he had very little money left, and he had to pay rent and daily expenses.

He originally wanted to continue the online part-time job, but the parents over there probably heard some rumors and politely declined his request.

The speed at which his injured leg healed was like an ant climbing a tall building, his body could not move, and his emotions seemed to be stuffed in that damp room, moldy little by little.

He walked out of that room after a long time. It was the counselor who informed him that he had taken sick leave for too long.

He thought that after a period of time, other people's eyes on him would decrease, but sitting in the last row of the classroom, he couldn't ignore the stares deliberately turned from the front row, and he couldn't ignore the whispers behind him while walking on the school road.

He didn't want to go out more and more, because even if no one noticed him on the road, he still felt that people around him were using him as a talking point.He felt that he was not suitable for living in the sun, and he felt that he was being spied on and had nowhere to hide.

Finally, after not answering the tutor's calls for countless times, the college sent him a repetition notice, because he didn't meet the number of classes for all the classes this semester, and he couldn't take the final exam.

He finally left that damp room, dropped out of school for himself, and then returned home with the remaining money. He still took the long-distance train, and there was instant noodles in his hair when he got off the train. taste.

He glanced at his mother from a distance through the glass, and learned from Uncle Wu that his mother already knew what happened at school, and she sighed and sighed in the middle of the night, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

So he left.

The sky and the earth are both equally big and vast, but why can't they seem to find a place for him?

But this can't be blamed on anyone, if you want to blame, you can only blame yourself, he is self-satisfied and self-sufficient.

"It's night, but there is a sun, making the night as bright as day..." Shen Yan lay on the bed and remembered the sentence in the book just now.

Where does the sun come from in the real night, there is only endless darkness.

Unsurprisingly, the next day was sunny again, and there was no class on weekends, but Shen Yan still got up early.

His breakfast is a plate of crispy radish pickled by himself and a small bowl of porridge. Every time he uses the smallest pot, it is difficult to get just enough for one person. This time, he cooked too much. He plans to save it for another meal at noon .

After breakfast, the sun hadn't fully risen yet, so he stretched his muscles a few times, thinking about chopping the unfinished firewood behind the house today.

The only big thing in his hut is the gas water heater for bathing. The gas water heater has to go to another village at a time, and he has to carry it up and down the mountain, so he must save it.

Daily cooking and boiling water are done in the most primitive way like other residents in the village - burning firewood.In addition to himself at lunch, he has to cook meals and dishes for the children. From time to time, he has to cook a la carte for the children who can only eat sweet potatoes and rice balls. There is often not enough firewood.

Thinking of this, he recalled how he met Zhou Xingchuan in the town the day before yesterday.

Knowing that Zhou Xingchuan bought him a refrigerator and planned to ship it back to him, he immediately dragged someone to return the refrigerator.

The boss saw that the refrigerator was about to be returned less than half an hour after it had been sold, and the boss was not happy, but Shen Yan insisted on the refund, and he still reluctantly refunded the money, and even deducted 20 yuan to move it on the truck and had to move it down again. labor costs.

It's not that he doesn't want to admit it, it's that he really doesn't need this kind of big guy who consumes electricity 24 hours a day. He doesn't have anything to put in the refrigerator, and the school's electrical system is really fragile. He really can't guarantee anything. Sometimes things go wrong.

In the final analysis, it still needs to be completely remodeled, but it can only be thought about.Children from the three surrounding villages all go to school here, and Xiaohe Village has the best conditions, while the other two villages are unimaginably poor.

Because of poverty, the age of education is uneven. At that time, some children came to the first grade when they were nine years old. Shen Yan asked that he had two younger brothers and sisters in his family. The younger brother could go to school logically when he was seven years old, so he followed the children. Go home.

It was only when I arrived that I realized that the house was bare and there was only one grandma who was blind, and the nine-year-old child had to step on a stool to cook on the big stove and take care of the older and the younger.Later, Shen Yan left 200 yuan for the child, and when he came back after walking the five-mile mountain road, he felt that his whole body was exhausted from heart to body.

When I first arrived, some students often disappeared after three days of class. When I asked, they went to help the family herd cattle and hoe the fields. He wore out the soles of his shoes and came to work, but there was no way. Only after asking did he find out that his mother had run away and his father Imprisoned, the child does not herd cattle or plow the land, and will not even have food in the coming year.

Later classes were extremely difficult, and it was not easy to get ten people in the class to attend the class. Moreover, because I hadn't studied well, I didn't understand the meaning of class and study at all.

Homework books were folded into paper airplanes, stationery boxes were torn apart, and older people would ask why there are no game consoles for the donated materials?Why no toy cars?

Shen Yan only felt exhausted physically and mentally, and could only teach the children who were willing to learn as well as possible.

A few months later, a child who went out of Xiaohe Village actually ranked in the top ten of the grade in the town's junior high school.

In a small village where most of the children can’t finish the nine-year compulsory education, there are people who can get such good grades in the town’s junior high school and get poverty subsidies from the Education Bureau, and the school even rewards them. This is unheard of. The family praised the child as a Wenqu star who has gone down to earth, and dragged Shen Yan to the house to treat him to dinner. Everyone said that Teacher Shen taught well, and that their child could earn a lot of money by going to college in the future.

In fact, the child is willing to learn, but he lacks the correct guidance. As long as Shen Yan teaches him, he can understand the knowledge he doesn't understand over and over again.

The things he learned in elementary school were not difficult in the first place, and Shen Yan had been making up for him for a few months. He never slacked off at all, and it was normal for him to get good grades in the exam.

Thanks to this incident, everyone's ideas began to change. The head of Xiaohe Village brought back his eldest daughter who didn't like going to school from the electronics factory and forced her to go to a vocational high school.A few leaders in the village who have the right to speak, held a meeting with people from several villages, educating parents to let their children go to school, and only going to school can change the poor life.

Later, with the help of poverty alleviation projects, many children’s homes have improved a lot, and those who can go to school come to school. Everyone donated money and the town allocated funds to repair the school, and the school finally got on the right track.

However, it was precisely because of these things that Shen Yan was so busy that he had no time to think about his own affairs.Compared with himself, these children who walk barefoot on the mountain road every day are really facing the torrent of life and need someone to help them cross the river.

More importantly, he found a place where he deserves to exist.
