Still, Wait For Me

After school this afternoon, Xu Tiansheng walked home on the 11th.

At first, he thought he had misremembered the bike, looked in the garage for half a day, and finally remembered, he went to Iwata last weekend and didn't even ride the bike to school.

No wonder Dad said at noon, "Why don't you wait for yourself to come home?"

Xu Tinsheng came home, Mom had already cooked dinner, was playing egg hot rice wine, and Dad sat at the table with tea and chatted with the guests.

The Guest is not really a Guest, it's the neighbor's child Wang Jinfang.

Wang Jinfang was the only teacher in Daluo Village Elementary School at the time, Wu teacher picked it up. The family dialect 1 “Fang” refers to 1 “ten thousand”. In that year, ten thousand is still a lot of money. In accordance with the principle that boys are more expensive than girls, his sister's name is Wang Kaqian. The two names were very well recognized by the villagers at the time, but they were not the favorites of the teacher Wu, who named the children of the majority of the villages. He said that the meaning of the two names was good enough, but the cultural connotation was insufficient.

Teacher Wu's two most proud names were given to a couple of brothers in the village. His brother's name was Li Jingjia. That was the name used by the Empress Nantang, and his brother's name was Li Jingliang.

At that time, nobody in the village knew what the word "from good” meant, or a girl who came back to Guangdong for a few years to work broke the story. He said to Li Jianliang: “We are the same! ”

Xu Tinsheng thanked his father for not having named Mr. Wu at the time, although his name seemed quite straightforward.

“Mom and Dad, I'm back. ”

“Going in, huh? Stay for dinner later. ”

“Where's Autumn? ”

Xu Tiansheng tried to act natural and normal and greeted each other.

“Your sister's doing her homework. Go get her.” Mama said.

Xu Tiansheng knocked on her sister Xu Qiuyi's door and nobody cared.

“Homework… must have fallen asleep again. ”

Xu Tinsheng's stomach defamed him. When he opened the door, his sister actually slept perfectly on the table. She laughed in her dream and revealed two large bars. My sister is the kind of amazing person, she has been sleepy and greedy since childhood, she has a good deviance and better grades, she would have been a happy little girl forever if it hadn't been for an accident at home.

It was the dilemma of the family that forced her to learn early on to understand, be diligent and economical, be independent and strong.

Sometimes you love someone and wish he/she didn't have to be so knowledgeable, provided you have the ability to care for her/him.

“Autumn, for the rest of my life, I will do everything I can to make you never have to be too knowledgeable and always be a vaguely cute little girl.” Xu Tiansheng said softly.

“Well... brother, what did you say?” My sister woke up confused and asked.

“Ah... nothing, Mom asked me to order you to eat, hold on tight, or you'll get beat up again. ”

Xu Tiansheng panicked and rushed out to speak with his father and Wang Fang.

Wang Jinfang is the same age as Xu Tingsheng. He was his playmate when he was a child. In short, he was the one who had done a lot of stealing chicken and touching dogs and picking dates and picking out bad luck. Everyone had such a person as a child.

In the memory of Xu Tingsheng's previous life, Wang Jinfang did not continue to go to school after graduating from junior high school, raised pigs at home farm for two years, and then suddenly sold the pig farm for military service. Unfortunately, when the soldiers reached this stage, there was no good way out. Wang entered the army and did not return home. He found a job as a security guard in the city.

When they met again in their previous lives, Wang Jinfang was married and had a two-year-old child.

He came back to hide from the debt.

Wang Jinfang married his wife, discharged from the military, married, the wife and children all lived with him. Wife and children, grandparents, parents, and a brother, they didn't do anything, pointing to Wang Jinfang's wage life. Wang Jinfang couldn't help it, so he handled a bunch of credit cards, spent his life swiping cards, and finally didn't go on. Twenty-two cards together, he owed more than 400,000.

Xu Tingsheng had just graduated, gave him 2,000 yuan for emergency treatment, and then no longer knew what happened to him. However, by chance, he heard from his mother that he had been evicted from his home by his parents and had no idea where he was going.

“Now it's time, Wang Jinfang should be about to join the army.” Xu Tiansheng thought.

Wang Jinfang came to talk to Xu Da about going to the army. Wang Jinfang wanted to hear Xu Da's opinion. He saw the dining time and Mommy gave him a glass of chopsticks. He was not welcome anymore. He sat down for dinner.

Xu Da poured wine to himself and Wang Jinfang, and looked at Xu Tiansheng, "You can drink after the exam. ”

With regard to Wang Jinfang's enlistment, Xu's father judged by the views of his whole life, naturally raised his hands in favor of it. This alcoholic beverage is somewhat meant to serve him well.

Wang Jinfang and Xu Da had a sip of wine and hesitated for a while to say: “I went to ask about the enlistment the other day. The people inside said to me that there are not many places. If you really want to go, take 20,000 yuan first. I just wanted to ask Uncle Xu, what do you think? ”

Xu Daddy shrugged for a moment: "Is it about money...? ”

Wang Jinfang shook his head hastily: “No, I have saved a little money for two years. It's not enough. I intend to sell the pig farm. It should be enough. ”

“Turns out this is the process of Wang Jinfang selling pig farm for soldiers, I wonder why I didn't participate in this conversation in my previous life... didn't I come home that week? ”

Xu Tinsheng thought about it and interjected: "Why don't you have a pig?... Well, our teacher says it's not a good way out now. If we don't have this pig farm and don't have to spend that $20,000, I think it would be nice to go to work out, but now... why don't we keep raising pigs? ”

Wang Jinfang shook his head: “On the one hand, I still want to be a soldier. Anyway, it's finally a way out. Besides, the pig farm can't be done. The price of pork dropped all the time as soon as the SARS came. There were 30,000 people out here last month. I hesitated and now it's 16,000. ”

Xu Tingsheng searched his memory. During the 2003 Series, the price of pork did reach the bottom of a valley. Many breeders could not withstand the pressure, either to sell or to slaughter, or to bury it, causing a sharp drop in the amount of pig stock in that year, but the wave of low tide actually quickly passed. After the truly worst months of the Series, people's fears of the Series disappeared quickly in remote counties like Libei County, and the price of pork began to rebound rapidly, nearly double the market price before the Series.

At the end of that year, due to the emergence of avian influenza, chicken ducks and other poultry meat temporarily withdrew from the daily diet of the population, objectively pushing the price of pork up yet another wave.

Thinking about it, Xu Tinsheng said: “I heard that the SARS may be over soon. So let's say, if there are fewer pig farmers, isn't the price of pork going up after the CARICOM? ”

Wang Jinfang and Xu Da both looked at Xu Tiansheng with some surprise. Xu Da was curious: “What do you mean? ”

Xu Tiansheng thought about it and said: “I mean, instead of just continuing to raise, it would be better to take this wave of price reduction to buy some more at a lower price, and expand the scale of farming, so that after CAS, we might be able to make a small fortune. ”

Xu Da hesitated for a moment and said to Wang Jinfang: “Jinfang, what do you think of what the courtier said? ”

Wang Jinfang scratched his head and laughed: “I don't know, just watch everyone sell, I'll sell with them. ”

Xu Tiansheng was in a bit of a hurry, and said hastily: “Then go back and remember to think about it. Don't make a decision in a hurry. I think this is a very likely situation. ”

Wang Jinfang nodded and didn't say much.

Daddy Xu didn't say much.

After Wang Jinfang left, his mother and sister also went to watch TV. There were only two fathers and sons left at the dinner table. Xu Da hesitated for a moment and poured Xu Tiansheng a small half glass of rice wine.

Xu Tiansheng picked up the glass and touched Dad. “Dad, what do you think will happen when you go in? ”

Xu Da chuckled: “The way in is different from yours. He is actually more like the idea of our generation. After trying it once, it is difficult to have the courage to take risks again. It is safer to be a soldier than you said. ”

Xu Tinsheng heard what Xu Da meant. He ostensibly said Wang Jinfang. Why didn't he try to talk about himself?

“Dad, I think you're actually very young. I don't know how to say this, but... there's still a lot to be done.” Xu Tiansheng said with a smile.

“Bullshit has a lot of work to do.” Xu Da's laughter has always been very refreshing. That's the mark of his angry youth. At this moment Xu Da said with a laugh: “All I need now is for you and your sister to be healthy and read well. This family will depend on you in the future... I have no idea.” Speaking of the second half, Xu's bright smile on his face has been replaced by a helpless look.

Xu Tiansheng looked at it and suddenly said positively: “But you don't want to, a man who dares to come out and run the factory at the age of 18, I don't believe you will for the rest of your life. ”

Xu Daddy was silent.

Xu Tinsheng continued: “Dad, I don't feel comfortable either. I still like the old you, big bowl of wine, laughing out loud. Mom said that you were that temperamental when you were young. I invited all the female workers from the three nearby factories to see the movie in the waving room and deliberately sent my movie ticket next to my mom... you were so stylish at the time. ”

“How do you use words? You're still in college. Is that what it's called? It's called... technology. If it wasn't for chasing your mother, I'd be embarrassed. Do you think I'd want to invite so many people to the movies?!” Once again, Xu Da slapped the gardener as he wished, of course it was just a gentle slap on his head.

“Okay, technology… Anyway, I've been thinking for two years that you can't stay in the field. With a chance, a fortune, you can start all over again. ”

Xu Da obviously had some moves, and he shrugged for a moment. “It's not that easy. Our family has so much money now. I was thinking about giving you and your sister to go to school. Don't say it's not enough for me to run the factory again. It's just enough. I can't take this risk. ”

Xu Tingsheng hastily asked: "Dad, can you tell me how much money we have now? ”

Xu Da looked at his son in confusion and let loose his mouth. “More than 30,000. What do you think you can do? ”

In 2003, 30,000 yuan, not much to say, not much to say, Xu Tiansheng shrugged for a moment, said: “Dad, don't limit your thinking to running a factory, 30,000 yuan is not enough to run a factory, you can do a lot of other business, what exactly, how to do it. After my college entrance exam, my father and son will discuss it. Anyway, I want you to get your confidence and your strength back. ”

Xu Daddy thought about it and nodded with a smile: "Then wait for you to graduate. ”

Hearing Dad say this, Xu Tiansheng was in a great mood. He touched Xu Da with a glass of wine and drank it dry. “Here's to you, Daddy... come back and kill all four sides. ”

Xu Daddy laughed softly, raised his glass quickly and drank it all.

……

Xu Tinsheng did not know how touched the father was by this conversation, let alone whether or not the father made up his mind. His idea was simple. If the father still had that strength and decided to come back to life, he would come up with an idea for his father and feel comfortable being a pusher behind the scenes and a rich second generation.

As the saying goes, the son Moruo Father, in fact, why can't the son taste the father? Xu Tiansheng knows that the father's ability is actually very strong, at least stronger than himself in previous life, but he just lacks the temper.

So... what if the father finally retreated? This was also thought by the court students, through their own efforts, to make Dad feel comfortable and nurturing his life.

……

The next day Xu Tiansheng did not see Wang Jinfang.

On the third day, Sunday, Xu Tiansheng slept until noon. When he woke up, Wang entered the house. Xu Tiansheng climbed up without dressing properly.

Wang Jinfang came to bid farewell, and he decided to sell the pig farm for military service.

“You don't think about it anymore? I assure you, the SARS will soon pass.” Xu Tiansheng was in a hurry and used the word "guarantee”.

Wang Jinfang laughed: “I have collected all the money from the pig farm and have also spent it. The soldier's affairs have almost been settled... So, Uncle Xu, Tiansheng, I will leave first. I will be discharged from the army and come back to see you later. ”

Wang Jinfang is gone.

Xu Tiansheng waved with some confusion.

He did not change Wang Fangfang's choice of selling pig farms for military service, nor did he know whether Wang Fangfang's fate would be the same as in previous life.

He's just a little messy.

Even if he's lucky to be reborn, predicting the future, some people, some things, are irreversible.
