Chapter 182 The Frog at the Bottom of the Well
Chapter 182 The Frog at the Bottom of the Well
Tang Duoduo's mood gradually calmed down.
But her shoulders were still twitching, and she sobbed every now and then.
He Yuan took tissues from the car, took a few, and handed them to Tang Duoduo.
After Tang Duoduo took the tissue, she lowered her head and wiped her face.
He Yuan just looked at her like that.
It wasn't until Tang Duoduo finished wiping his face that He Yuan said, "Is it better now?"
"En." Tang Duoduo made a nasal sound.
Perhaps because of crying just now, Tang Duoduo's nasal voice was a bit vague.
Her face was still a little stained, and the tears left streaks on her fair cheeks.
The two small eyes are red, like a little rabbit, obviously very wronged in his heart, but his face has a stubborn look, which makes people feel funny and sad at the same time.
All in all, except for the time when Elder Tang left, this was the second time He Yuan saw Tang Duoduo shed tears.
"Say it, it's better to say it." He Yuan sighed and flicked the cigarette ash in his hand.
Tang Duoduo crumpled the paper into a ball, held it in his palm, and said in a low voice, "You really don't want me, do you?"
When she said this, her thin shoulders were still trembling.
He Yuan couldn't see her expression, but from her voice, he could feel her nervousness, not pressing, and... panic.
As a person with the same highly sensitive personality, He Yuan knew very well how much courage it took Tang Duoduo to say this.If it were him, he would rather be hypocritical to death than open his mouth.
Therefore, He Yuan stared at Tang Duoduo with serious eyes, and said slowly and heavily, "No."
Tang Duoduo raised her head and looked into He Yuan's eyes, as if confirming something.
He Yuan just looked directly into her eyes and remained motionless until Tang Duoduo was defeated first.
Tang Duoduo quickly averted her eyes, turned her head to look out of the window, and wiped her cheek with the back of her hand.Her expression was a little flustered, and two blushes flashed across her delicate and fair face.
She took two deep breaths and said, "Since this is the case, there is no need to change schools or move. I think the current life is very good..."
"Duo Duo." He Yuan interrupted her, "Do you still remember, what is the thing that your grandpa can't let go of?"
"I know, but I don't think there is any need to make any changes. I've been studying hard now, and I can understand those things. It won't be long before I..." Tang Duoduo wanted to explain, but He Yuan didn't stop her, Just quietly watching from the sidelines.
Gradually, Tang Duoduo's voice became smaller and smaller, but she still tried to argue: "I don't think it's really necessary. I'm working hard now. It won't be long before I can improve my grades."
After Tang Duoduo finished speaking, He Yuan said, "Duoduo, do you think that the only thing your grandfather wants to see is your grades?"
This time, he didn't give Tang Duoduo a chance to speak, as if he was talking to himself.
"If you just want you to live and improve your academic performance, really, Dodo, he doesn't need to entrust you to me. He only needs to entrust you to your relatives, using him as the last point of his father Face, beg them to let you continue to go to school. Believe me, although it may not make you live a good life, it can at least let you grow up safely. But, is this really what he wants?"
"Duoduo, your grandfather hopes that you will have a stable growth environment. She hopes that you can grow up healthy and happy like other children." He Yuan said, staring at Tang Duoduo.
Tang Duoduo was silent.
She bit her lower lip and put her hands on her lap, fingers interlaced.
"I also came from my student days, and I know what's in it. Really, I'm not afraid to hit you. When I first knew Mr. Tang's wish, I was desperate. Because learning this kind of thing is a steady and steady task. , a step-by-step thing. Even for those geniuses, without nearly nine years of education, it is almost impossible to rely on their own efforts to get a good score in the exam."
"Okay, even if you work hard enough and are smart enough, the college entrance examination never depends on whether you work hard or not. In addition to your own efforts, it also depends on others. If others perform well, your The chance is small, on the contrary, if others do not perform well, your chance will be great.”
"The scariest thing in this world is not that other people are smarter than you. It's that people who are smarter than you work harder than you; people who work harder than you know how to find a way. You won't be given a chance to overtake at all."
"Duoduo, reality is not a fairy tale. Not everyone is a rabbit in the tortoise and the hare. Those who are really smart will not stop, stand there, and wait for you to surpass them."
"So, do you really think that with your current state and your current living environment, you can really put your whole body and mind into your studies to improve your academic performance and allow yourself to be admitted to university smoothly? "
Tang Duoduo wanted to open his mouth several times.
But every time I just opened my mouth, but didn't say anything.
Seeing this, He Yuan smiled and said, "Besides, Dodo, do you really think that just being admitted to university will satisfy you?"
Tang Duoduo tilted her head when she heard the words, with a puzzled expression on her face.
He Yuan didn't look at her either. He held a cigarette in his left hand and looked ahead. His vision was a little blurry, and he didn't know what to recall.
"I don't know, have you ever heard the story of the frog in the well?"
"When I heard this story when I was a child, I thought it was satirizing the frog, saying that it was self-sufficient, watching the sky from a well, and very arrogant. When I grew up, I realized that this story is actually a very sad one. .”
"Why is the frog at the bottom of the well? Because it was born at the bottom of the well. It was born there, grew there, and saw there. It is not like a white swan. It has the whole sky when it is born. For it For me, that well is its home and the whole world.”
"As for the white swan, it knows how big the world is from the very beginning. And it is very lucky, very lucky, because it is a swan, it is born with wings and can soar in the sky. Therefore, it knows that the world is big. No matter how big it is, it also has the ability to explore how big this world is, because...it can fly."
"As for the frog, it's just a frog. Do you want it to climb out of the deep well with its short legs, and then use its two legs to measure the size of the world? That's really hard for it. After all, we all know that flying with wings is faster than walking with two legs."
"Moreover, swans are inherently stronger than frogs. For swans, because they can fly, as long as they don't kill themselves, then most of the situations in this world will not cause harm to it. On the contrary, frogs will be miserable. Too much, it has many natural enemies, and its enemies are almost everywhere outside, such as snakes, weasels, cats, dogs, and even people-roasted frogs are very delicious, I remember it used to be delicious on the street Over there, there are many frog sellers, and in summer, the streets are full of the smell of roasted frogs.”
"But, do you dare to brazenly roast a swan?"
"As long as someone takes a picture of you and posts it on Weibo, it won't take long before you will be human fleshed out, scolded by netizens, and even called by law enforcement agencies to drink a few cups of tea in the police station. If you're unlucky, you can drink it for years."
"So, you see, the world is so unfair."
"When others laugh at the frog for its short-sightedness and looking at the sky from a well, does anyone consider that it is because of its birth and living environment that it can only choose such a way of life."
"After all, although the well is a bit small, it's better than being swallowed by snakes, grabbed by owls, teased by stray cats, roasted and eaten by humans..."
"Although this way of living is aggrieved, it is better to live than to die. The first instinct of a creature is to survive first. There is a saying that 'poor is not enough for three generations', which makes sense, because the third generation is poor. I can't afford to raise children anymore, I can't even raise offspring, how can I talk about the fourth generation, the fifth generation..."
"But, Duoduo." When He Yuan said this, he paused and looked at Tang Duoduo.
"Not everyone is willing to be a frog. Many people enjoy it because they can only be frogs. After all, not everyone has the opportunity to meet the right person and be able to pull themselves out of the deep well. However, you have to fight anyway, are you willing to be a frog hiding at the bottom of a well all your life, are you willing to stay in this small city all your life?"
"Duoduo, tell me, do you like BJ?" He Yuan stared into Tang Duoduo's eyes.
When he said this, his heart was heavy.
Amidst the heaviness, there seemed to be a trace of flame.
He Yuan was talking about that frog, but he was actually that frog himself.
Before university, He Yuan told everyone that he likes a leisurely life, likes to stay in a small city, has a small house of his own, and will stay in the county town for the rest of his life, and will not go anywhere...
It's all bullshit!
Does he not want to go out?
He dare not go out!
Just like the frog in the fairy tale.
How did He Yuan go out, why did he go out?
At that time, he didn’t have any pocket money on him. Until college, he saved 2000 yuan from his part-time job. It happened that Brother Qi was joking in the group and invited everyone to play in BJ. He Yuan was cruel and had a private chat with Brother Qi Once, it means that you want to go to BJ.
At that time, the Internet was still relatively pure, and He Yuan and his circle were relatively small, with only a dozen people. Everyone had known each other for four or five years. Although they had never met each other, they knew each other well.What's more, He Yuan felt that he was a big man and had no money, so there was nothing he could lie to.
In addition, at that time, he made money in his hands, and his heart was also beaten.
He wanted to go to the outside world as his mother said.
So, He Yuan chatted with Seventh Brother for a while, including what to bring to BJ, toiletries, bedding and so on.Seventh brother said no, why take so much, I will buy it when I get to BJ.
He Yuan thought about it too. It was the first time he went out, he didn't know anything, he didn't know anything, and it was really inconvenient to carry so many big and small bags.
Then He Yuan asked again, how much would it cost to rent a house if he went there.
Seventh brother said no, and went to live with him directly, which would save a little room fee.
When He Yuan heard this, he felt a little embarrassed. After all, he went there and asked someone to pick him up and take care of himself. It was already a trouble to others. If he lived with someone else, it would be inconvenient. It really bothered them too much.
But at that time, He Yuan really didn't have any money and couldn't pretend to be grand, so he could only make a decision in his heart. After arriving there, he should find a house as soon as possible, even if it was a basement, he would be able to live there.I heard that the house in the basement is relatively cheap, only a few hundred yuan a month, and I only spend one summer vacation there, two months, with the little money on my body, plus the income from part-time jobs, it should be enough.
When he was about to go to BJ, He Yuan didn't know how to buy a ticket, so he asked Xiaolan for advice.As a result, Xiaolan was also studying in Chengdu at the time, so she said that she was going back to her hometown during the summer vacation, so she helped He Yuan buy the ticket, and didn't even confiscate the money, saying that she would give it to her after He Yuan returned home.
Originally, He Yuan had no money at that time. Although the fare was not much, for He Yuan at that time, it could solve many problems—at least he could buy a quilt and a set of toiletries.
Although he was embarrassed, at that time, he could only accept it with a cheeky face.
To be honest, He Yuan has been to many places now.
But he will never forget the fear and apprehension he felt when he first went to BJ.
He Yuan doesn't know how to buy train tickets, doesn't know how to take the subway, and he doesn't even dare to go into a big shopping mall. He has never been in such a big shopping mall before. You can buy whatever you want at the convenience store on the corner of the street. If you go to the mall, you should spend a lot of money.In the end, Seventh Brother told him that it was not like this. There were discounts in big shopping malls, which were even cheaper than convenience stores on the street.
Really.
At that time, He Yuan was a special Xiaobai.
Even now, when he looks back at the past, he can't bear to look directly at him.
But, it was that time.
He Yuan, a frog who lived in the well since he was a child, finally jumped out of the well.
He finally saw the vast world outside like a white swan.
Perhaps from the perspective of the white swan, what the frog He Yuan saw was only the things it was tired of seeing every day.But for He Yuan, it was indeed a completely new and strange world that he had never seen before.
It wasn't until that time that He Yuan knew what he really wanted.
Tang Duoduo's current situation is exactly the same as that of He Yuan.
Because she has never seen the outside world, she feels that she can endure a mediocre life.
However, He Yuan didn't want that.
It is precisely because of going through this stage that He Yuan knows better that once Tang Duoduo grows up and sees the colorful world outside, she will definitely regret it.
It's like regretting when I was a child, why I didn't study hard and get admitted to a better university; after working, I regretted why I didn't keep my eyes open and chose a better major, but I could only get a farmer's salary; Years later, I regretted why I didn't work hard at the beginning, and succeeded in becoming a manager; I regretted why I didn't buy a house at the beginning, and regretted...
He Yuan has already regretted it.
He didn't want Tang Duoduo to regret it in the future.
"I..." Tang Duoduo opened his mouth with a confused expression, "I, I don't know."
There is something, 4K, and another 2K... Let's make up for it when I have a chance.
