Chapter 42 Laziness(2/2)

The old man remembered something again and said, "Your second master's uncle has been here five or six times this year. After the New Year is over, you can go over and have a look and say New Year's greetings."

Seeing that Xu Rong remained silent, the old man sighed and said, "You guys have to be more generous. I haven't had any contact with you for ten or twenty years. What a big deal. I came here with my head down. Now that we're on board,

Just take the lead and do things honestly, no matter what the purpose is, no one can guarantee that someone will help you."

"I understand, it's not like I can't swallow this breath, otherwise I wouldn't take Xu Xing with me."

The old man smiled and nodded, and said: "You said you can swallow your breath, I believe you, but you still have to learn, you have to learn how to break your teeth and swallow them with blood. When you are alive, you will inevitably encounter situations where you have to swallow your teeth with blood."

When you swallow, let me remind you, if you really encounter something like this, tighten your mouth, don't say anything, and just wait and see." 1

When Xu Rong heard what his grandfather said was true, he smiled and said: "Master, if you hadn't been injured back then, would I have been a third-generation official?"

The old man smiled and waved his hand, and said: "Haha, what an official! With your father's background, he had no chance of becoming an official. If I hadn't realized that the situation was wrong and paid someone to become a soldier, let alone

If you take up the public job, you will be criticized and beaten to death." 1

"You were born late. That's because you didn't see it. When the knife was used to sew people in the street, your second grandfather was so frightened that he lay on the roof for three days and three nights and didn't dare to come down."

Xu Rong heard the old man say that the fourth generation of his ancestors was not innocent. His great-grandfather was a landlord, which was not bad. The key was that his second great-grandfather joined the National Army and never went to the battlefield. He only engaged in business that oppressed the people.

When it comes to him, he was born in the new era and grew up under the red flag. If he really wants to talk about it, it simply goes against his ancestors.

Xu Rong really didn't expect that he would become a celebrity in his hometown without knowing it. Since arriving home, there have been many things going on, especially as the New Year approaches, when weddings and funerals happen, he is asked to be the emcee or host, and the school opens a branch.

, he was invited to cut the ribbon, and the most ridiculous thing was that the chicken farm was opened, and he was also invited to deliver a speech.

He rejected it without even thinking about it, and just accepted the task of cutting the ribbon for the school. The head teacher and principal of the high school all came to the house, and he really couldn't shirk it.

A few years ago, he dropped out of school and went out to work. His class teacher helped him keep his student status. Even if the other party didn't come, he would still have to come to visit with gifts after the Chinese New Year.

On New Year's Eve, I attended another high school reunion.

It was almost the same as when he was a student. At that time, he was just busy studying and didn't talk much. He didn't talk much at class reunions. He just listened to his classmates chatting about their own interesting things.

Adhering to the consistent philosophy of never showing off.

Even though most of the topics in the audience were focused on him, he always felt a little out of place while sitting there. Although he was also a student, the topics they talked about were mostly games, school, majors, etc.

At the party, he also met a female classmate whom he had a crush on for three years in high school. In the past three years, he had barely spoken to her.

It still looks beautiful now.

He also saw a different emotion in the other person's eyes. Teacher Niu once said that the effects of force are mutual, and the same should be true for certain emotions.

After all, he is quite handsome.

But since we have missed each other, it means that we are not destined to be together, so we can just move forward. As for the memories of each other, they are only used as condiments in those difficult days.

He already has a classmate, Xiao Zhang, who has been acting like a monster recently, and he likes it too. There is no need to seek temporary happiness and cause unnecessary regrets.

Before the Chinese New Year, he made another trip to Long Province and went to his second grandfather's house to pay New Year greetings and stayed for two days.

He also understood that in the absence of blood ties, the reason why the two parties moved around was, firstly, to maintain the existence of the grandfather himself, and secondly, out of pure profit needs. Maybe it would be better if they moved around more in the future.

However, when he went to Long Province, he made classmate Zhang very angry because he took photos of beef noodles, hand-caught mutton, etc. one by one and sent them to classmate Zhang.

As for Xiao Zhang, he could only look at the photo and swallow the rice and rice with tears.

Seven or eight days after the New Year's Eve, Xu Rong packed his luggage again and went straight to the Magic City.

The changes in his hometown where he had lived for seventeen years touched him more deeply. He understood the root causes of these changes very well. The more so, the more he felt that he could not slack off.

Just like grandpa said.

He was afraid of poverty.
