Chapter 42 Laziness(1/2)

Xu Rong didn't stay at classmate Xiao Zhang's house for long. When he stopped feeling dizzy, he immediately packed up his things and set off for the Magic City.

Tong Zirong has become famous again, and he must seize his current leisure.

As a half-time colleague, Xu Rong can understand Tong Zirong's mood very well. If he is unable to make movies for ten or twenty years, he will not hesitate to practice while his body is still strong even if he has a chance, even if he doesn't have much money.

.

Xiao Zhang, wrapped in a thick down jacket, stood side by side with Xu Rong at the gate of the community, waiting for a taxi. He held one hand across Xu Rong's and put it in the pocket of his coat.

The two of them were chatting about the possibility of staying in school. Xiao Zhang raised his head and asked: "Teacher Xu, is it strange that couples don't quarrel?"

Xu Rong asked in confusion: "Why do you ask this suddenly?"

Classmate Xiao Zhang said: "Yesterday my cousin asked me if you would comfort me when we quarreled. Then I told her that we had never quarreled, and then she said that not quarreling is the most dangerous thing."

Xu Rong smiled and said: "What kind of truth is this? Don't listen to her nonsense."

Her cousin was already married, so her situation was naturally different from theirs. Moreover, he estimated that with Xiao Zhang's little mind, he could stand up to her several times if they really quarreled.

How easy is it to evaluate B’s lines!

By chance, a tall woman wearing a brown fur coat, a turtleneck sweater, leather shorts, and white silk boots walked by on the opposite side of the road. Under her hat, she could see her curly brown hair.

Xu Rongduo glanced at it twice. He was quite puzzled. Is it really not cold?

Classmate Xiao Zhang also saw it, and her mouth bulged because she found that the other person's flesh was very smart and always grew where it should grow. After waiting for a while, the person walked away, and she squeezed Xu with her crossed hands.

He touched the back of Rong's hand and asked in a low voice: "Teacher Xu, do you think I'm young?"

"I don't mind it." 2

Classmate Xiao Zhang’s eyes widened: “Then you mean I’m young?”

Xu Rong was startled for a moment, remembering what she had said before, she slowly turned her head and said, angrily and with a smile: "Xiao Zhang, you are too harsh in finding trouble."

"You said I'm looking for trouble?" Xiao Zhang's eyes widened even more, and he almost blurted out, "You're impatient, you're actually impatient with me?!"

Xu Rong rubbed his forehead speechlessly and said with a wry smile: "Where did you see all this? Your mind doesn't usually move so fast."

"What do you mean? What do you mean?" Xiao Zhang got excited and said angrily, "Are you beating around the bush and calling me stupid?!"

Xu Rong knew that classmate Xiao Zhang was acting, and said with a smile: "I was wrong, I was wrong, don't listen to your cousin's nonsense, she is deceiving you."

Classmate Xiao Zhang, however, kept holding on and said, "You are right, how could you be wrong?"

"Why is it right? It's just wrong!"

"Then tell me." Classmate Xiao Zhang asked almost without thinking, squeezing his neck, "Where did you go wrong?"

"I...I'm not wrong at all, right?" Xu Rong was a little confused by classmate Xiao Zhang. He really never thought that one day he would be confused by classmate Xiao Zhang. At the same time, he secretly made up his mind that if there was a quarrel in the future,

You must stay calm, because if you are not calm at all, you may not be able to quarrel with her.

When classmate Xiao Zhang quarreled, his thinking and logic were several times more rigorous than usual.

"You just think I'm young!" Xiao Zhang made this conclusion extremely "angrily", then "hum" and turned his head to the side, showing that he was very angry.

After waiting for a while, she caught a glimpse of Teacher Xu staring at her. She couldn't hold it any longer, but she still frowned and squinted: "Teacher Xu, don't you know how to coax me?"

Xu Rong smiled, turned her head upright, and said, "Because you are so cute when you are angry. I want to watch you for a while."

Classmate Xiao Zhang opened her mouth. She still wanted to fight back, but she couldn't hold it any longer and suddenly she laughed like a goose.

"Oh, Teacher Xu, what are you doing? If you don't want it, you will be seen... ugh..."

After saying goodbye to classmate Xiao Zhang, he flew back to the Magic City. Xu Rong originally planned to study with Tong Zirong until the end of January and then go home directly. However, seeing that the system was about to reach 100 experience points, he had to stay for five more days. He was not sure about Tong Zirong either.

Are you still free after the New Year?

In just over a month, he took away nearly 700,000 yuan.

After all, you have to pay back the training fees you owed back then. It’s just that you were very poor at that time, and you didn’t have to worry about wearing shoes when you were barefoot. You didn’t have to pay a big price to take risks, but now it’s like

It's different now. Standing under the spotlight, his every move is watched and he has to avoid taking risks as much as possible.

After careful calculation, it seemed like a waste of money, but seeing the system's comprehensive evaluation rising from B+ to A-, he didn't feel that the 700,000 spent was unjust.

In normal filming, even with a crew like "The Ming Dynasty", he might not be able to accumulate so many experience points if he stays for three months.

If the money is gone, you can make it again. If one day this village is buried in the loess, I am afraid this store will never be found again.

In early February, amidst the uproar over the "Xu Men" scandal, Xu Rong returned to her hometown with two overstuffed suitcases.

One of the suitcases contains his usual clothes and daily necessities, and the other contains several new sets of clothes bought for his grandfather.

He went home several times recently, and each time he left some money for the old man, but the old man was always reluctant to spend it, and he no longer planned to give the money, so he simply bought it himself.

Entering the village, grandpa was sitting at the entrance of the village chatting with people about the mountains. Similar situations had been common in Xu Rong since he was a child, especially at noon, when about seventy or eighty people, each holding a bowl, went to the street, squatting or sitting,

By the time the chat is over, it’s almost time to prepare for the next meal.

After another round of watching and a few packs of cigarettes, Xu Rong entered the house.

"Why are you so thin?" In addition to the inconvenience in my legs and feet, my grandfather's body and bones are still as strong as before. He probably has no worries. In addition, he does not have to pay public food and his living conditions have improved. His face is rosier than before.

Quite a bit.

After entering the house, Xu Rong threw aside the luggage containing his clothes, opened another suitcase, and said: "I needed it for filming, so I lost weight after a lot of effort. I was busy during this period, so I didn't gain weight."

.”

He first took out a velvet leather jacket from his suitcase and said, "Master, let's try this to see if it fits."

My grandfather had a leather jacket in the early years, but he wore it for so long that the leather became too rotten to wear anymore. But even so, it managed to last for a few more years.

When he was thinking about buying clothes for his grandfather, this was the first thing he thought of.

Grandpa scolded him with a straight face and said, "Why are you spending this money? It's not like we don't have any clothes at home."

But seeing Xu Rongguang smiling and not saying anything else, he had no choice but to smile and stretch out his arms, asking Xu Rong to put them on for him, while saying, "Didn't it cost a lot of money?"

"Hey, it's a coincidence." Xu Rong said nonchalantly, "When I came back, I happened to see someone selling this at a street stall on the roadside. He asked me for one hundred and twenty, and I got him a half-sky price, fifty

Got it for 1 yuan.”

He was afraid that the old man would feel distressed, so he didn't dare to tell the truth. If he told the old man that he spent several thousand yuan just to buy a coat, the old man would probably not be able to sleep for half the night.

The old man touched his skin. He knew in his heart that Xu Rong was playing tricks on him, but he just smiled.

"There are also leather cotton trousers, they are also fifty. I collected them together. These two pieces cost only one hundred together. How about it, Master, do you think I did not make a loss in buying them?"

"You."

The old man didn't try on the trousers, but only wore a leather coat, sitting on a small bench, and said: "How do you think? I always read on the news that you are running around all day long, like a rabbit without a nest."

"It's all good." Xu Rong poured a glass of water, held the teacup and sat across from his grandfather, "It's not very busy. I can rest for about half a year."

"That's good."

Xu Rong sipped his saliva and said, "Master, I have something to discuss with you."

The old man smiled and touched his leather coat, raised his head and asked, "What's the matter?"

"That's right, Master, I bought a house in the capital, the kind with a yard. I'll be able to come down after the Chinese New Year. When the decoration is completed, will you move to the capital with me?"

The reason why he insisted on buying Bieye was because the old man had bad legs and feet and it was inconvenient to go up and down stairs, so he bought a house with a yard.

After hearing this, the old man immediately waved his hand and said, "I ran out there when I was young. All the people who worked in the mines settled there. I couldn't get used to it, so I came back."

Xu Rong asked in confusion: "Why?"

"It's like a quail. It lives in a cage and can't flutter. It's really boring. I can't go to the capital. I don't know anyone. If you're not at home, I don't even have anyone to talk to."

He said slowly, "Besides, after eating at home, sit at the door and talk to the neighbors. Besides, we have a vegetable garden in the west. I will go there to take a look and plant some vegetables when I have free time. Why don't I go there?"

Is the capital being nourished like a quail in a cage?"

After hearing the old man's words, Xu Rong felt most of the excitement in his heart disappear in an instant. He had originally planned to take the old man over after the house was down and decorated for a while.

Seeing that the expression on his face had dropped a lot, the old man smiled gently and said: "It turns out that when your second master renovated the house, I was actually not very happy. I have lived here for decades and I can't live in the new place.

I'm used to it, but the house is so dilapidated, and many of the beams are rotten. If I don't build new ones, they might be buried by me one day, so I didn't stop it."

The old man shook his shoulders, straightened his leather jacket, and said, "What do you think? I know that the news says that you work hard and that you are a lunatic. I know that you are afraid of poverty and only think about what you want."

We can make a lot of money, but we and I are just doing well right now, so if you buy this big color TV, you will be the first one in our village, and we will win."

Xu Rong nodded and said: "Yes."

The old man looked at his still unhappy expression, laughed twice, and said: "Look, why have you been running away for several years and you still haven't escaped? No matter what we say, it doesn't matter to you. If you deal with people, if they don't

Agree happily, even if you clearly disagree, but after all, you can't just follow other people's temper in everything. Don't be soft-hearted when you should force others. If you want to climb up, you will inevitably step on others.

If you don't mind your shoulders, just come back to farming honestly."

Xu Rong thought for a while and stopped worrying. Grandpa was right. He didn't spend much time at home all year round. The old man went away and was all alone with no one to talk to. I'm afraid he really didn't want to talk to him.

Talk about quails in a cage.

After thinking about it, he smiled and said: "Then what if I force you?"

The old man's face was wrinkled and he said, "I can't kill you."

"Haha, I'll just tell you."
