Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 598 Damao is confused
Granny Jinhua's yard was unusually lively. After school, He Yushui was extremely excited when she saw Xiaohei. The two little girls brought Xiaobai and Xiaohei to the yard and also got a few chicks. Suddenly, the yard became a zoo.

Wang Wenyuan moved out a chair and sat at the door of the main room, smoking and watching them play. Mother Feng was cooking in the kitchen, and she would occasionally stick her head out and shout at them, for she was afraid that the two little girls would play the chicken to death.

Just as he was watching the two little girls teasing Xiaobai and Xiaohei, the door creaked open and a head poked in. Wang Wenyuan happened to see Xu Damao pushing the door in with a smile on his face.

"Why? I haven't seen you here for a long time?" Wang Wenyuan asked.

Xu Damao was attracted by Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai when he walked into the yard, and answered casually: "He was beaten and stayed in the hospital for three days."

Wang Wenyuan looked at Xu Damao in surprise and said, "You don't look like you've been beaten. Where were you beaten?"

"I" Xu Damao was about to say, but he closed his mouth again. Wang Wenyuan saw that it was too embarrassing to say, so he didn't ask any more. Xu Damao played with the two little girls for a while, stood up, and said, "Brother Yuan, do you have time? I want to ask you something. Let's go to your courtyard to talk."

Wang Wenyuan had nothing to do, so he said, "Okay, let's go." Then he stood up and took Xu Damao to the next yard.

After the two sat down in the main hall, Wang Wenyuan lit a cigarette. Xu Damao got anxious and said, "Well, Brother Yuan, I smoke too."

Wang Wenyuan handed him a cigarette and a lighter. Xu Damao lit one skillfully. Wang Wenyuan asked, "What's the matter? Why is it so difficult to explain?"

"Brother Yuan, I'm in the third year of junior high school now. My dad wants me to go to a technical secondary school. You see, I'm not cut out for studying. I thought about not studying in the second half of the year and directly learning projection technology from my dad, but my dad wouldn't agree and forced me to go to school. What do you think I should do?" Xu Damao said all at once.

Wang Wenyuan looked at him and asked, "How old are you?"

Xu Damao took a puff of his cigarette and said, "I'm fifteen this year, and I'll be sixteen soon."

Wang Wenyuan smoked and thought for a while, then said, "Actually, I quite agree with your idea, but you have to finish junior high school first before considering becoming your father's apprentice. How about this, is your father at home?"

Xu Damao shook his head and said, "No, he's in the countryside showing movies. He won't be back until the day after tomorrow."

Wang Wenyuan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll treat your dad to dinner the day after tomorrow night, right here. I'll have something to ask your dad, and I'll talk about your story while I'm at it, is that okay with you?"

Xu Damao said with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Yuanzi, I feel relieved now. I will go see my two sisters."

After Xu Damao resolved his worries, he thought about going out to play. After all, he was still a child, and was a child who was brought up by the Xu couple, so he really felt a little carefree.

Wang Wenyuan did not go over again. He just sat in the main room drinking tea and waiting for dinner.

Wang Wenyuan woke up from his sleep when Mama Hua came to call him for dinner. He had fallen asleep on the recliner in a daze. When he arrived at the restaurant, he saw that the two children and Grandma Jinhua had already started eating, but Xu Damao was missing. After asking, he found out that Mama Feng had asked him to stay for dinner, but Xu Damao insisted on going home to eat. Wang Wenyuan thought more of Xu Damao, thinking that he was sensible now. In the past, he didn't need you to tell him to go to the table directly.

During the meal, Wang Wenyuan told Feng's mother that he would invite Xu Damao and his son to dinner the next night, and asked her to buy the food in advance. Feng's mother nodded and agreed. The next day, Wang Wenyuan took the little girl to Master Tie's place, but he was empty-handed. Master Tie and his son were at work and were not at home. Wang Wenyuan did not stay long, and took the little girl around the street. Unknowingly, they came to the overpass. Wang Wenyuan sighed, feeling that he had already regarded the overpass as his home, and he habitually ran here when he had nothing to do.

The little girl was very excited and looked around. There were many markets here. After two years of silence, when Wang Wenyuan appeared here again, the place had regained its former bustle. Several markets were crowded with people. The Xianlong Market was like this, with people setting up stalls on the street, telling crosstalk, singing drums, and performing magic tricks. The little girl sat on the handlebars of Wang Wenyuan's bike, holding a candied haws in her left hand, and just looked around.

Wang Wenyuan was just walking by. He had no plan to buy anything here. He just wanted to look at the people here. It seemed that there were not many familiar people here. Since his brothers had withdrawn from this area, he rarely came here.

After visiting several markets, Wang Wenyuan saw the familiar old guys wrestling in the engineering market. He just watched them from afar without getting close. Seeing that they were still living a comfortable life, he felt at ease. After all, Jiao San was still on the battlefield, and if he went there, he would definitely not be able to get away for a while.

After a year of rest and recuperation, Wang Wenyuan found that people's state of mind has really changed. Before liberation, everyone lived in fear, and even familiar people were approached with caution. Looking at these people now, their smiles are really from the heart. He also felt the changes in this society and the progress of the people.

After walking for a long time, Wang Wenyuan obviously felt that his sister was a little tired, so he took her back to Maoer Hutong. When they got home, only Granny Jinhua and Mother Feng were at home. Wang Wenyuan asked, "Mother Feng, where is Mother Hua?"

Mother Feng said, "Your Aunt Wang called her away and said she wanted to introduce her to a job. It seemed to be a job in the street office."

Wang Wenyuan said as he poured water: "It's time to go out and experience the outside world. It's a bit boring to stay at home all the time. It's annoying after a long time."

Granny Jinhua was lying in the rocking chair and asked, "Why, did you get anything today?"

"Well, I went back to the overpass today and took a walk around. It feels really different. There is a thriving scene everywhere," said Wang Wenyuan.

"That's right. Your Aunt Wang has come to me many times. I know everything she said. Now it's the people who are in charge. This is not the time for any bully or powerful person to control the lives of us ordinary people." Granny Jinhua said with a smile.

Wang Wenyuan looked at his grandmother helplessly and said, "Grandma, you don't have to say this to me. After all, I am also a member of the cadre school. I know the current situation very well."

Granny Jinhua smiled and said, "I'm afraid that your master has led you astray. Your lazy personality is exactly the same as his. I'm afraid that you will always be in this state of being aggressive towards others."

Wang Wenyuan smiled and said, "That can't be helped. I cultivate Taoism. What can I do? You should consider training the remaining grandchildren. This is the only way I can live my life. I will just go with the flow."

Granny Jinhua looked at Wang Wenyuan and realized that she couldn't persuade her grandson, so she sighed and said, "Don't be so willful in your life and work. Don't let your temper take you by the wayside. You are here to live in the secular world, not to cultivate the Way."

Although Wang Wenyuan was very filial to his grandmother, he didn't want to talk to her about Taoism, which she didn't understand, so he quickly stopped talking and said, "I know, I follow the rules very well, and I haven't done anything out of line. I follow the rules and regulations."

"I hope so. You should be more restrained and not be like before." Granny Jinhua said helplessly.

Wang Wenyuan didn't want to argue with his grandmother on this issue anymore, so he found an excuse and returned to his yard, where he smoked a cigarette and drank tea, thinking about treating everyone to dinner tomorrow.
