Chapter 342 The Helplessness of Little People

Lu Mingfei did it with one wave. This time he no longer swept it aside. It seemed that it was done.

Chu Zihang looked at this couplet and noticed the difference at first glance. It was obviously different from the previous scraps. It was beautiful, but the sharpness that hit him was gone. It didn't disappear, but merged into one. In a blink of an eye, it is no longer blindly sharp, and there is an end to the indomitable progress. There are leaps and detours, just like the majestic mountains between heaven and earth, there are also rivers and streams. Not only is the sky and sea vast, but also the mustard seeds and morning dew have universe.

Chu Zihang was deep in thought, but Lu Mingfei spoke up at this moment.

"Don't worry, everyone has their own way. Seniors just need to continue to follow their own path, and the future will have its own scenery."

Chu Zihang stopped looking at the couplet and glanced at Lu Mingfei.

The road observer looked like he had gained a lot.

A way to nourish your mind?

Lu Mingfei chose calligraphy as a way to rest his mind. Chu Zihang has no worries about this yet. His sleepless method is not yet complete. There is still a long way to go. Chu Zihang has not fallen asleep in the past six months. , only he himself knew the feeling, others only saw that the everlasting golden eyes of the President of the Heart Society were no longer bright, and looked dim, with some bloodshot eyes.

The dim golden eyes were proof that he was gradually mastering the dragon's blood. As for the bloodshot eyes, it was pure fatigue, a fatigue that Chu Zihang's mixed bloodline and martial arts cultivation could not eliminate.

This road was not going to be easy, he knew that from the beginning.

Lu Mingfei did not move for a long time. He was still immersed in the previous artistic conception. It is strange to say that there are so many coincidental opportunities in this world, and they are so without any reason. The problem that he has been thinking about for a long time is just one. The solution was easily solved after just one breakfast, and the mystery is so mysterious that no one can explain it clearly.

In the past, his calligraphy was good, but he was too general. This is not a shortcoming. Kyushu martial arts has a lot of idealism. People who accept death and march forward on the same road are not without great achievers, but everything can be achieved. There is a premise, that is whether it is suitable or not, and if you follow an unsuitable path, no matter how hard you accept death, your achievements will still be mediocre in the end.

Generals and battlefield killings are the ways of Yama. Yama is him, but he is not just Yama. The difference can be said to be a slight difference, but a thousand miles away.

This couplet is a beginning. Based on Yama's spiritual thoughts, he will take his own path. Combined with Kaitian Zhuang, the road Mingfei can foresee. This road will be very big and difficult.

They say everything is difficult at the beginning, but more than that, is it easier to keep going than to choose? not necessarily.

Lu Mingfei added ink again and began to write a word.

While the feeling is still there, write more. A household needs Spring Festival couplets on both the front and back doors. If there are more, the senior's family won't need them, so they can be given away.

Can't waste it.

This writing took me an entire morning.

When Su Xiaoyan yawned and pushed open the door, her open mouth did not close for a long time. The beautiful marble floor was covered with Spring Festival couplets with red background and black characters. They were neatly arranged, and there was not even an open space the size of a palm. Su Xiaoyan, who was so frightened that she lost all sleep, looked around again. There were things everywhere on the coffee table. They were bright red and festive, but also a little weird in the festive atmosphere. It was like a bride in an Oriental horror, with a red hijab and a flower wedding. Clothes, when the suona blows brightly, you see all the white paper money floating down from the sky.

Su Xiaoyan rubbed her arms.

It happened that her Zihang was walking out holding a pair of Spring Festival couplets, and the two of them met each other. Chu Zihang paused for a moment. Su Xiaoyan couldn't tell from her son's handsome face what he was thinking, and the two just remained silent.

"You're back."

"Well, I'm back."

Chu Zihang nodded.

"I'll take care of it right away. It'll be fine soon."

Su Xiaoyan wanted to say "Mom, help you", but how could a good kid like Chu Zihang, who made his parents, teachers, and elders feel so worried, allow that kind of thing to happen? Before Su Xiaoyan took action, Chu Zihang had already The room was tidied up like a storm, and the Spring Festival couplets disappeared quickly, almost in the blink of an eye.

The three of them had lunch together. Lu Mingfei was very embarrassed. After all, they were at someone else's house. It was too shameful to end up like this. In order to apologize, Lu Mingfei took the initiative to cook and cooked up a table of delicious dishes. Compared with Chu Zihang's exquisite dishes that are like works of art, Lu Mingfei's craftsmanship seems to be much rougher. He seems to have scratched out all the "delicacy" in his dictionary, and then added "wildness" to it. The words "efficiency" and "large quantity and adequate management".

It is said that Chinese food is about color, flavor and flavor. There is nothing "colorful" about Lu Mingfei's dish. Most people may hesitate to even take off their chopsticks, but Chu Zihang and Su Xiaoyan are different. The former doesn't care, while the latter is a son. Don't care what else she has to care about.

It has to be said that Su Xiaoyan may have some problems as a mother, but her love for Chu Zihang is no less than any mother in the world.

After tasting it, it was surprisingly good. Su Xiaoyan raised her eyebrows in surprise.

"I really can't tell."

Indeed, these dishes may not look very good, but they taste really good. This is also a craft that Lu Mingfei is proud of. I think back then, the little emperor repeatedly found excuses to rely on him and settled in. After taking a bite of Lu Mingfei's food, they were still planning to open a restaurant if there was a chance in the future. Lu Mingfei would take off his bronze mask and serve as both a waiter and a chef. Probably no one would have thought of it, and he would be so powerful in the martial arts world. How interesting it is for Yama to be a waiter here.

It's strange. She obviously can't compare to Chu Zihang's craftsmanship, but this time Su Xiaoyan ate an extra bowl of rice. All thoughts of keeping in shape were forgotten, and she chatted with Lu Mingfei while eating. , this son's classmate is really good, he is likeable just by looking at him, Chu Zihang occasionally says a few words, but in fact this child only has facial paralysis, and he talks a lot.

Thinking of this, Su Xiaoyan was still a little melancholy. If Zihang could talk and laugh, he would definitely have a girlfriend early in the morning. She sighed again, it would be great if Zihang brought a girl home someday. She might not be able to sleep at night. Can wake up with a smile.

In the afternoon, Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang went to a park to give away extra Spring Festival couplets.

Nearby is Ziyang Street, and in the opposite direction is Laojing Alley. I chose this place because of the large flow of people and because it is familiar.

They set up a table and put up Spring Festival couplets. Chu Zihang looked back expressionlessly, while Lu Mingfei was in the front soliciting customers. Oh no, he was giving them away.

It’s almost New Year’s Eve, and everyone needs Spring Festival couplets. Some banks will give them to you, and some neighborhood committees and street offices will also take them. But you can’t get too many free ones. The first man took one away with a smile and left a message. After "This word is so handsome", more and more people came here because of his admiration, and soon there was a long queue in front of the table.

"Hold it."

"Thanks."

Lu Mingfei heard a familiar voice.

When he looked up, he saw a stout man wearing a hat, sunglasses and a scarf, all wrapped up tightly.

He nodded to Lu Mingfei, turned around and left in a hurry.

Lu Mingfei wrote a lot of Spring Festival couplets at noon, and they continued to distribute them until the evening, and finally they were almost finished.

Pedestrians were returning home in twos and threes. Lu Mingfei was clearing the table when a man quietly walked over not far away. He stopped moving about ten meters away and just lingered there, the light of his cigarette butt flickering.

Lu Mingfei glanced in that direction, said hello to Chu Zihang, put his bag on his back, and ran over.

"uncle."

The wandering man was stunned and almost dropped the cigarette butt between his fingers.

The person standing in line to receive Spring Festival couplets in the afternoon, the one in front of me, was Lu Mingfei's uncle.

His face was a little stiff, his lips moved, and his eyes avoided looking at Lu Mingfei.

"Um……"

He said quietly.

The uncle and nephew were walking in the park.

In the afternoon, my aunt heard from neighbors in the community that someone was sending Spring Festival couplets here. My aunt remembered it immediately, and when she got home, she brought her uncle over to pick it up. Their precious son still had to study hard to study abroad, although this boy The keyboard and mouse in the room have been beeping all day, but my aunt also said that her son is called relaxing and combining work and rest. Do you understand? Why, I can’t stand it. I can’t stand looking for a genius from your family. Lu Mingfei is promising. Now that you are studying abroad, you will look down on my Narusawa, right?

Facing his wife's violent storm, the uncle could only run away. He smoked two cigarettes in the corridor and stomped out.

But when I arrived at the place, my uncle was stunned. The person sending Spring Festival couplets over there was his genius nephew who suddenly had an enlightenment. He is not studying abroad, so why is he here?

At that time, the uncle wanted to rush over and ask Lu Mingfei what was going on, but when he thought of the man at home, all his strength suddenly drained. He thought for a while, put on a hat, sunglasses and a mask, and went up fully armed.

As for where he got this outfit, it can only be said that he had this need. After all, he often looks for some high imitation watches and wallets. It would be ruined if his uncle who prides himself on being a decent person is recognized by an acquaintance, so he carries the equipment with him. , mainly sunglasses and masks, and other items such as hats and scarves, which are usually worn on the body.

After taking the Spring Festival couplets home, he took advantage of the opportunity to buy cooking oil and sneaked out again to find Lu Mingfei.

In the tone of an elder, he cared about Lu Mingfei's study and life abroad, and told him to work. After a long silence, the uncle smoked a cigarette and took out a stack of red bills from his arms.

"I have kept a notebook to record all the living expenses your father has given you over the years. Your aunt and I used a lot of them in the past few years. There is nothing to say. It's my fault as an uncle."

"I'll talk to your aunt later. This hole needs to be filled for you. Mingfei, what are your plans after college? Do you want to stay outside or come back? I heard that the cost of living there is very high. I'd like to use whatever you want to eat. Don’t wrong yourself.”

"Also, you're not young anymore. Please take it easy and bring a girlfriend home some time. Girls are very valuable now. Let's find a solution together for house gifts and so on."

He thought casually. Compared to the grand proposition of the principal's fate and future, his uncle's focus was really small. Perhaps he had never thought about the value of life and the rise and fall of civilization. Marrying and having children, and then helping the children Once you get married and have children, your life will be complete.

Lu Mingfei smiled stupidly. He was actually not very good at handling the situation in front of him, such as concern from relatives. If his aunt was acting like that, he would not even blink an eye, but uncle... Lu Ming Fei really doesn't know what to do.

Lu Mingfei confiscated the stack of money, but his uncle didn't take the money either. When Lu Mingfei took out a bundle of cash from his bag, his uncle's expression changed. He was heartbroken, fearing that the child Mingfei would be alone outside. I've learned so badly, where did you get all this money? I heard that things are very chaotic abroad...

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he still felt hatred from the bottom of his heart. His uncle trembled with his lips and almost wanted to give Lu Mingfei a few slaps with his belt.

Thanks to Lu Mingfei's persuasive talk and proof, his uncle was able to believe that these scholarships were actually from a good source.

"Scholarship."

The uncle sighed with emotion, his eyes were very complicated. Mingfei had really changed. He not only went to a foreign university, but also received so many scholarships. He was a completely different person from before. But the uncle was no stranger. He was vaguely here. The child can see the shadow of his father in his body. Look at Lu Mingfei now, he looks so confident and sunny, he really looks like his brother.

He has very complicated feelings towards Lu Mingfei's father. There is admiration, but underneath this admiration, there is also... jealousy.

Why are you so good and I can't do it?

At the same time, there is low self-esteem.

But no matter how many emotions he had, they gradually faded away almost ten years after the person concerned disappeared. Now when the uncle thinks of his brother, Lu Mingfei's father, he only remembers the man's handsome smile in the sun, so dazzling.

Lu Mingfei did not give money to his uncle for no reason. Now he has no shortage of money to spend, but this is not a reason to waste it. He has not forgotten the tens of thousands his uncle gave him through Han Ye half a year ago. Speaking of which, In fact, the uncle probably wants to work hard to be a good uncle, but he is not a hero, he is just an ordinary person, so ordinary that he has exhausted his strength in daily life.

The uncle finally confiscated it, and Lu Mingfei could tell that he was really angry. How should I put it, it felt amazing.

In the past, he always felt that he was alone and lonely. However, after school, he would hang out with his classmates until they were picked up one by one by their family members. Finally, he was left alone, stepping on the shadow and drooping his head. It seemed true. It was bad, but the fact that he had so many classmates walking together after school, didn't it just prove that he was not alone?

Maybe my uncle has wanted to be a competent uncle before, but he has a family, a wife and children, and his energy is always limited. Many times a person fails to do it. It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he can't do it. This is the most helpless thing. place, Lu Mingfei thought of his nervous smile in Stephen Chow's movies. Maybe this is the sadness of a little person.

"Is that your classmate?"

"Yes, he is a senior, a very good person."

They walked back.

"Shall we have New Year's Eve dinner at home?"

Uncle said cautiously.

"No."

Lu Mingfei gave some reasons, but the most fundamental one was that he didn't mention it. The uncle and nephew knew it well, so why didn't he go back to eat? It would be embarrassing for everyone when he went back. It is difficult for an upright official to stop household chores, and the same goes for Yama.

"That's it."

said the uncle, with a mixture of regret and relief.
