Chapter 39 Difficulties
There is a saying that when a man sheds tears, he doesn’t shed them easily because he just wants to be sad before they reach the point of sadness.
This sentence is absolutely correct.
On this day, Ning Weimin witnessed a thick and strong old man with his own eyes.
How did I throw away my dignity in public and shed tears of grievance in an alley where pedestrians were busy and passers-by continued.
Bian Jiangong definitely didn't want to cry.
But the problem is that it’s hard to control yourself!
It was precisely because he tried so hard not to cry and his face was so ugly that Ning Weimin misunderstood that he was going to get angry.
While Bian Jiangong's lips were trembling sharply, the pain in his heart overwhelmed him before he could hold on for a while.
In an instant, he was as weak as a child.
He squatted on the ground and tried to hide his head.
The tears in his heart were like blood being released by a knife, and he couldn't hold it back even if he wanted to.
Eventually it became a whirlwind.
To be honest, Ning Weimin was shocked at first when he saw this scene, and even thought it was a bit ridiculous.
But soon, he stopped laughing, and even his eyes began to turn red.
Why?
He couldn't explain it himself, maybe it was because crying like this was so contagious.
Although Bian Jiangong's cry was very low, the trembling in his eyes that was suppressed in his throat was more touching.
Perhaps it’s also because some of men’s emotions are common.
Bian Jiangong's tears reminded Ning Weimin of the time when he was memorizing Chinese characters.
I remembered that when he was a child in his previous life, he was pushed to the ground and beaten by a group of children, insulted, and spat on...
I remembered that when I first entered the society in my previous life, I encountered obstacles in finding a job and was looked down upon...
< br>I remembered that when I was running a stall in my previous life, I stood in the strong wind for a day while eating cold steamed buns, and was caught and fined...
I remembered my first big business of over 100,000 yuan. , I thought that I would definitely not run away with the handle in my hand, but I was deceived by someone I trusted...
So, when Bian Jiangong squatting on the ground attracted the curious eyes of passers-by.
Ning Weimin not only showed a fierce look in his eyes to show a warning, in case someone who wanted to do something bad would come around again, but he also took the initiative to come over to comfort Bian Jiangong.
"Brother Bian, what's going on with you? How about we change places to have a nice chat? Look at the people coming and going, it doesn't look good..."
Bian Jiangong shook his head and had no other response.
But the crying began to shrink as much as possible, and gradually turned into choked sobs.
Ning Weimin extended the invitation again.
"Let's go. It's better to meet by chance. It's lunch time. Let's find a place to have a drink."
"No, no," Bian Jiangong rubbed his red eyes with his hands and pushed away Ning Weimin came to help his arm and stood up from the ground.
"Wei Min, I'm not blaming you, I've made you laugh today. I'm not a ungrateful person either. I know your feelings and understand. In fact, I'm just a little depressed, so just leave me alone. , Just leave me alone for a while. It’s okay, I’ll cry happily, cry happily..."
After that, he lowered his head and left.
How could Ning Weimin let him leave like this?
He knew in his heart that if Bian Jianfeng cried like this, it was obviously not just a murder caused by a sip of beer, but he must have encountered real difficulties.
Whether it was because of the relationship with the neighbors in the street or the sympathy between men, he couldn't leave Bian Jiangong alone like this.
So in the end, he dragged Bian Jiangong around a corner and into a braised pork restaurant in Ertiao, Langfang.
I asked for a bottle of Erguotou and two bowls of stewed stewed pork, and I ate and chatted while doing my best.
Let me make it clear, Ning Weimin is not stingy by ordering something like this.
Because this shop doesn't sell anything else except braised and simmered food.
They came here based on reality. There really is no other place to go.
This is a bustling city center and is crowded everywhere.
That is to say, it is no longer in season to eat this thing, so that you can have a seat.
Isn’t it just for the convenience of talking? It’s enough to be close and quiet, and the rest doesn’t matter.
Not to mention, wine is really a good thing, and it has a great effect on people's desire to talk.
After Bian Jiangong drank a tael of wine, he was no longer afraid of poverty. The grievances in his heart poured out like beans from a bamboo tube and were placed in front of Ning Weimin.
Talk specifically about today's matter. In fact, all Bian Jiangong's troubles can be attributed to his return to the city.
Logically speaking, it is indeed a good thing to finally come back after suffering hardships outside for several years. But when you come back, you can't just apply for a new household registration and it will be a happy ending.
Because this is not like the past, but people come back for the New Year and the holidays, and the more people there are, the more lively it is.
You can make do with whatever you want. When the fun is over, people will leave.
Bian Jiangong will not leave at all this time, which brings more practical problems to his family that need to be solved.
If nothing else, people these days have many brothers and sisters in their families.
Bian Jiangong is no exception. He has both a sister and a brother.
The eldest sister, Bian Aihong, has already married and moved out, while the elder brother, Bian Jianjun, has a girlfriend but has not yet married.
Right now, we are at the stage where the man and woman have almost finished talking and are preparing for the marriage.
But this not only requires money, but also a house.
Aunt Bian has no job and Uncle Bian is retired. Together, the couple only earns less than fifty yuan a month. It is not easy to save some money on weekdays.
In order to arrange Bian Jianjun’s marriage, in addition to using his eldest son’s salary and the couple’s savings.
I'm afraid I have to rely on the help of my eldest daughter, Bian Aihong, to deal with it.
The family above the house is barely coping.
The old couple lived in one room, and the remaining room had to be cleared out to be used as a wedding room for the eldest son.
But it won’t be possible for the second son to come back.
He is a young man who has no job, can eat better than anyone else, and has all the necessary clothing.
Not to mention the extra daily expenses, the wedding room also has to be thought of separately.
All the previous preparations and arrangements were in vain, and the eldest son’s National Day wedding planned for this year had to be put on hold.
For this reason, the entire Bian family has mixed feelings.
Everyone has his own unique taste in his heart.
As parents, the palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, so the old couple must have a bowl of water to eat.
Never lose the small one for the sake of the big one.
But what does the old man expect after working hard all his life?
Don’t you just hope that your children will start a family and start a career soon?
The key has to be solved one by one. The eldest son cannot get married, let alone the younger son.
How to coordinate the affairs of the two sons one by one has become a big stone that weighs heavily on the old man's heart.
Bian Jianjun was even more speechless.
His job is to burn boilers in a bathhouse. His salary is low and his remuneration is poor. It would not be nice to talk about it.
After so many years, we finally got a girlfriend
The other party is also older and anxious to get married, so she doesn’t choose much.
As soon as my brother came back, this matter was put on hold.
The woman will definitely not be happy about it. If this matter is not handled well, she will blow out the light and pull out the wax.
But he also feels really sorry for his younger brother who has been suffering away from home for a long time. Brothers are like brothers.
He would never do anything to drive his younger brother away in order to find a wife for himself.
This is called a dilemma.
And Bian Jiangong himself, who is the core of the conflict, sees all this and feels pain in his heart.
He never dreamed that he would be thinking about going home day and night.
I finally came back, but I became a burden to my family and caused trouble to all my relatives.
If he had known this, he might as well have stayed in Inner Mongolia and let his horses go.
So he is very diligent at home and rushes to do all the work.
But even so, I still feel that I am a superfluous person in the family and a freeloader.
As a result, he couldn't just sit back and wait for work to be assigned, and his heart was as noisy as a burning fire every day.
Let alone a formal job, as long as there is a temporary worker.
Whether it’s picking up manure or sweeping the streets, he’s willing to do it.
Not for anything else, just to pay for food for my family.
This is the pain in his heart, the difficulty at the moment.
