Knight of the Blue Lagoon (The Past of Tao v)

35. Day 4 (continued) (The Past of Tao i)

~

Daozhi never spoke. When his grandparents were tired of scolding and had nothing more to scold, he turned to his mother again. She didn't say anything more. She knew her daughter and knew some Daozhi. At this time, she remained silent. Daozhi's eyes seemed to give her a chance, hope, maybe the only thing left, hope that she could say something, even if it was a little bit of emotional truth.

In fact, it's not that my mother doesn't accept Daozhi, but that she can't accept this nondescript relationship in her heart. After so many years, she will sometimes think of Daozhi. Ever since Tang Jiahui came home during the last vacation, she had a full memory of Daozhi and fantasized about it. With Daozhi, this is the relationship that she has truly recognized in her heart for a long time. At least mentally, she has never thought that it is her daughter and Daozhi.

Grandpa and grandma are an older group of people. The mediocrity of the previous generation gave them a so-called"clean" family background at that time. This status allowed them to get a job without worries at the time. However, they took this society for granted. It should be a morning's work at their feet, a cup of tea, a newspaper and a few trips to the toilet, routine and carefree. They hope that their descendants will also receive preferential treatment from the system and superior opportunities through their family status. They mistakenly believe that such status is a manifestation of ability and a kind of wealth that can be passed down. How pedantic and stubborn their thoughts are, and they don't want to make progress, but if the country wants to develop and society needs to progress, a cup of tea and a newspaper cannot promote scientific and technological innovation and cannot create output value. People realized the problem and quietly began to change again. During the change, some people were happy and some were worried. Those who were loyal to the iron rice bowl mentality lost their advantage, and most of them revealed their ancestors' true colors. Their lives gradually I became helpless and began to blame everyone. They did not realize that the development of society requires real talent, and this talent can be passed down in the family. Families that have been prosperous for a long time in history must have their excellent things, moral character, knowledge, and ability, through education and hard study. , obtained through hard work and hard work. The short-lived changes of the times can only affect a family for a while, and a once-splendid family will be brilliant again.

The excellence of a family cannot be given by a certain era, but depends on spiritual inheritance.

Their stubbornness attributes the helplessness caused by incompetence to the outside of the family, and they always look for external reasons for their children's troubles. Today, this external reason is Tao Zhi.

Their thoughts have been deeply ingrained. Daozhi understands this very well, so he does not defend himself at all, because the people sitting opposite are different from the students sitting between the desks. Now it seems that they are hopelessly prejudiced and stubborn. , this is caused by the level difference in understanding. It can no longer be upgraded and can only be eliminated. This is why Daozhi likes to teach in schools.

The food had been served for a long time, and Tang Jiahui was standing outside alone. She went to buy a pack of cigarettes for her grandpa, and started smoking unknowingly. This was her first time smoking, and she wanted to smoke.

Li Xiuyan was about to go back to school when she suddenly saw Tang Jiahui standing alone on the street with her head lowered and smoking. In her eyes, Tang Jiahui was a girl who should not have such bad habits. She keenly felt that Daozhi must be nearby. From Tang Jiahui From the expression on her face, Li Xiuyan judged that there was probably something going on between them, and the opportunity had come.

"Why smoke alone? What about Tao?"Li Xiuyan walked over with a slightly probing tone.

Tang Jiahui didn't notice Li Xiuyan's arrival. Before she could cover up her anxious expression, she immediately turned away from the restaurant, as if to block something. This action exposed what was happening in the restaurant. , and from Tang Jiahui's expression and behavior, Li Xiuyan concluded that Daozhi must be inside

"Are you not alone yet?"Tang Jiahui tried to cover it up with rhetorical questions.

When she saw Tang Jiahui, Li Xiuyan pushed away the boy who was following her. She didn't have time to argue about this. What she cared about at the moment was the restaurant, so she walked directly into the restaurant, but was stopped by Tang Jiahui.

"Why is it that the restaurant is yours and you can’t go there to eat?"

"not now."Tang Jiahui panicked.

Li Xiuyan rushed inside, but Tang Jiahui couldn't stop her and had to follow in. They walked to the door of the private room together, stopped for a while, and heard pleading:

"Please, please let Huihui go and don’t hurt her again.……"

Hearing that a group of people were besieging Daozhi, Li Xiuyan suddenly opened the door

"It's disgusting for you to say such things. I feel disgusted when I hear them. Let's go."Li Xiuyan couldn't stand it anymore and said rudely, then she pulled up Daozhi.

"In addition to our Huihui, you are also with this girl."Grandma became excited again.

"Hum, we are not clear yet, but I can’t think clearly."Li Xiuyan couldn't stand their appearance and retorted mercilessly.

"Who are you?"Mother

"I am a student of Daozhi, Daozhi is my teacher, and he is the lover of my dreams."Li Xiuyan's unabashed answer left her mother speechless.

"You are so shameless. Girls nowadays have no sense of shame at all."Grandma was so angry at this woman, thinking that this must be the girl that Director Lai was talking about.

"It seems that the older you get, the less clear your mind becomes."Li Xiuyan replied not to be outdone.

"Beautiful."Daozhi shouted before Li Xiuyan stopped.

"You go."Mother begged.

Daozhi stood up, stared at Tang Jiahui and took a step back. Tang Jiahui wanted to leave with Daozhi, but she backed down under the stern eyes of her grandparents and mother. The grandparents and mother inside, and the ones behind Li Xiuyan, as well as Director Lai of the department, intertwined to form a complex situation. The choices she had to make in the face of this complex situation exceeded Tang Jiahui's age, her life experience, her wisdom, and even her Determination and courage overwhelmed her, and she could only remain silent. Silence meant she chose to retreat. After all, the man in front of her had only appeared in her world for a year or two, and the relatives around her had been with her since she was born. She could not do it for this. A man who gave up giving birth to her and raising her. Looking at Dao Zhi's expectant eyes, Tang Jiahui could only look away. Tang Jiahui could feel the disappointment in Dao Zhi's eyes, the sadness in his heart when he turned around, and the desolation when he left.

"If we are leaving like this, at least give us a guarantee that we will never look for Huihui again."Grandma had no intention of letting him go so easily. She walked out of the door and was stopped again.

Dao Zhi ignored it. The group of people in front of him, Dao Zhi understood that they would never understand him. This was the case twenty years ago. Twenty years ago It's still like this, nothing has changed. Now that things have come to this, of course I won't look for Jiahui again. Daozhi is not so shameless yet.

"Tao?"Grandpa shouted with an emphasis, just like back then.

Conan Doyle once said that there is nothing new in this world, they are all tricks that have been played before. People always repeat what happened in the past over and over again. things, experiencing the pain of the past over and over again, the sadness over and over again, and complaining every time that God is unfair, because everyone is not willing to reflect, and they don't read books. They only look forward and look at money.

"Grandpa, grandma."Tang Jiahui shouted, she felt it was a bit too much.

Everyone's eyes stayed on Daozhi. Daozhi looked at Tang Jiahui and said,"I will not look for Tang Jiahui again.""

"Don't send any messages either."Grandma.

Daozhi left without answering.

Li Xiuyan followed him out of the door, and then suddenly came back. She said to Tang Jiahui in an imposing manner:"Daozhi is really ruined by being with you. You can't appreciate him at all."

"You are going too far, being so unrelenting."After they left, Tang Jiahui suddenly felt a sense of loss in her heart.

"Your grandpa was a Red Guard, and his grandpa was……"grandmother

"Why are you bringing this up?"Grandpa immediately gave grandma a look and stopped the topic.

"In short, he is an unlucky person to our family and will not bring you good luck. Our family can no longer withstand his troubles. He started falling in love when he was in middle school. He didn't concentrate on his studies, skipped classes, got into fights, and gambled... You are too different in age, you are still young, and this person is very complicated, which makes us feel Anxious, we are all doing this for your own good, fearing that you will be deceived and follow your mother's old path, and you will be the one who suffers in the end. You should study hard, go abroad, and bring glory to our family... The grandson of your grandfather's comrade is about the same age as you. Now I am studying abroad. When I come back from the holidays, you guys will have more contact.……"Grandma started preaching again

"You and he are not on the same level, and you will not be happy."Mother.
