Da Song a knife

Chapter 49
A bowl of drinks for a price is really not expensive. Although this opening meant that an acquaintance would take care of it, Zhang Sijiu didn't have any psychological burden, so he accepted the money with peace of mind.

Such calmness made Zhou couldn't help but take another look.

Zhang Sijiu returned a decent smile.

The Zhou family and Yang Yuanding had to go to reunite with County Magistrate Yang and his party, so they didn't stay any longer. After drinking the water, they left.

Zhang Sijiu wanted to see the stall, so he even declined Yang Yuanding's invitation to watch the sacrifice ceremony.

In fact, under the big willow tree, Zhang Sijiu could see the situation there from a distance, and he didn't have short-sighted eyes, so he could see clearly.

The ritual of offering sacrifices to the gods attracted all the people nearby to watch.

Even many people in the county town came to watch the excitement: After all, in a small county town, there are very few major events happening, so such excitement is rare.Idle is also idle, just take a look, and you can play bullshit with friends for a long time after gossip.

Therefore, here at the ferry today, it can be said that there are three floors inside and three floors outside.

Zhang Sijiu saw it in his eyes, and regretted it in his heart: the preparation is still not enough!At this time, we should sell some snacks or something. Those with children are the main consumers!
It's just that a missed opportunity is a missed opportunity, and she quickly left it behind.

The ritual of worshiping the gods is actually not complicated. The most important thing is that County Magistrate Yang personally reads the written prayers, and then burns incense and kowtows to worship the gods of heaven, earth and rivers.

Not only did they prepare a pig's head, a whole chicken, and a whole duck, but they also prepared a fresh big rooster, whose neck was cut off on the spot, and thrown into the river as a sacrifice to the river god.

Then a group of people watched the still-dead chicken struggle for a while in the river, and finally sank with a thump.

His expression was extraordinarily solemn.

Even many elderly people knelt down and muttered words.

Looking at Zhang Sijiu, he found it both novel and creepy.

At this moment, Zhang Sijiu realized very clearly what kind of social environment she had come into.

She pursed her lips and watched for a while, then looked away.

The one who reacted similarly to Zhang Sijiu was Yang Yuanding.

Yang Yuanding stared at the place where the chicken sank, with a hint of bewilderment on his face.

However, everyone else was paying attention to the ritual of offering sacrifices to the gods, so only Yang Yuanzhang noticed the strangeness of his younger brother.

Yang Yuanzhang gently covered Yang Yuanding's eyes with his hands, not letting him look at the river again, and said calmly and gently, "Don't look, don't think about it, calm down, don't be afraid. It's all right now. My parents and I are here."

Losing his vision all of a sudden, Yang Yuanding was stunned for a moment, blinked his eyes, and didn't quite react.

But after hearing Yang Yuanzhang's words, his originally somewhat dazed heart was slowly nourished by the warmth, and his mind gradually cleared up.

Knowing that Yang Yuanzhang probably misunderstood, Yang Yuanding didn't explain, but just lowered his head and said in a muffled voice, "I want to find Si Jiu."

The scene just now had a great impact on him. He had a lot of thoughts and wanted to share them with someone.

In the world, there is obviously no more suitable person than Zhang Sijiu.

Yang Yuanzhang responded, then went to talk to Mrs. Zhou, and took Yang Yuanding under the big willow tree.

Yang Yuanding didn't want Yang Yuanzhang to be here, so he pushed him: "Brother, you don't need to follow. I've recovered. Drink some water, and I'll look for you in a while."

So Yang Yuanzhang looked at Yang Yuanding for two seconds, then nodded, and stopped.

Yang Yuanding didn't dare to look at Yang Yuanzhang, lowered his head, and rushed to Zhang Sijiu's side in three steps at a time.

Yang Yuanzhang didn't stand there waiting either. He only stood there for about three or four seconds before turning around and returning to Zhou and County Magistrate Yang.

The matter of Yang Yuanding was like a small wave, which seemed to churn a bit, but it was actually inconspicuous, and few people noticed it at all.

However, Yang Yuanding came over suddenly, still looking like this, and Zhang Sijiu guessed why immediately.

She scooped up a bowl of water for Yang Yuanding, and said slowly, "What are you afraid of? You don't tell me, I don't tell you, no one will know. Besides, your parents and elder brother love you, so they won't do anything to you."

Yang Yuanding was about to say a thousand words, but he choked up immediately: ... Well, it's hard to hold back.

Zhang Sijiu looked at him like that, but was amused instead, "There is no need to think so much. What others think and do has never mattered to us. We only need to think about it, and we can do what we want."

No matter which era, not everyone is the same, is it?

Yang Yuanding scratched his head, feeling like he was going to explode.But it seems that the things I didn't say are meaningless now, and it seems hypocritical.

In the end, he only choked out a sentence: "Thinking about it, I'm a little bit scared. And the people and the environment here are really...the gap is too big."

There was never a moment when he realized so clearly that he did not belong here.

Zhang Sijiu looked at Yang Yuanding quietly, and only asked three questions: "Then can you go back? If you can't go back, are you going to die? Or just eat and die?"

Yang Yuanding choked up for a moment: "It is definitely not possible to die. It is also not acceptable to eat and wait to die—"

He felt sorry for him: "Maybe you don't believe me, but I am also a top student. I used to be motivated to do a great job!"

"It's the same wherever you change." Zhang Sijiu said succinctly: "If I change places, I can still cure diseases and save lives. If you change places, you can still do great things."

Yang Yuanding was startled, and suddenly felt that he had found the wrong person to confide in: "Don't you feel like me? Don't you feel a little bit lost and unaccustomed?"

Zhang Sijiu met Yang Yuanding's eyes, and sighed faintly: "If you want to think about life, I suggest that you replace every meal with coarse grain porridge, and try not to eat any meat or oil."

Anyone who has this kind of leisurely thinking about life and thinking about things that don't make much sense is simply living too comfortably.

Except for real depression, most people's so-called depression is entirely because they live too comfortably, so that they have a lot of leisure.

People make troubles when they are idle, and other things happen when the mind is idle.

When you get busy, many problems can actually be solved.

This is the sincere suggestion given by Dr. Zhang.

Yang Yuanding had completely lost his temper. He looked at Zhang Sijiu dejectedly, "The joys and sorrows of human beings are not connected."

Zhang Sijiu was expressionless: "Unless our wealth can be connected, our joys and sorrows can never be connected."

Yang Yuanding: ...There is nothing to refute?

He drank the water in one gulp, put down the bowl, and rolled up his sleeves: "Forget it, I'll help you with the work. You're right, find something to do, and you won't have time to think about it. I can't go back anyway, I want to It's no use either."

When he said this, he didn't even realize that he had a tragic sense of resignation.

Zhang Sijiu looked sideways at Yang Yuanding: Didn't this kid think it was just a joke before and didn't accept it from the bottom of his heart?
　See you tomorrow~
