Chapter 201 Protecting Hope

Cao Yu was right when he thought about it. He had been alone outside for so many years and was alone. He must have been bullied a lot because he had no one to rely on! So he didn't dare to make a mistake and nodded quickly.

Said: Uncle, you are right! It will definitely not be easy for a person to go out and struggle in the wind and rain, with no one to rely on. If there is someone to protect you, it will be much more practical!

The uncle waved his hands, shook his head and said with emotion: Hey, don’t imitate me! I have lived most of my life in vain, just like me with a body missing arms and legs. I don’t know what happened. I’m just so confused.

Already.

Cao Yu couldn't answer this, and the uncle looked helplessly silent. Then he changed the subject and said: But if this person wants to live a better life, he has to think better, don't you think so?

Cao Yu nodded quickly and said, "Yes, yes, yes, you must think about it!"

The uncle laughed and said: Young man, at my age, what else can’t I think about? God has taken away a lot of things that belong to me, but he has left a lot for me, right?

!

Cao Yu didn't understand what he said, so he had to choose silence again. The uncle smiled and said: At least this life is left to me, and he also gave me this bowl of rice to eat. Let me tell you what I mean, this bowl

No matter how terrible the food is, it’s still better than having nothing to eat at all!

Cao Yu had known for a long time that this old man was very open-minded, but he didn’t expect that he would be so open-minded! It’s right when you think about it! Now this old man is not making less money, at least not much worse than the one who works, but how can he say this?

What? That’s too immoral! So I just responded with a grin.

Seeing that his smile was worse than crying, the uncle quickly comforted him with a smile: Do you think it's a bit miserable when you look at me now? But let me tell you, I thought I was a respectable person in our place back then.

Do you believe it?!

Cao Yu didn't want to hear what he said about sadness. What this man was most afraid of was being with another man and talking to each other! In addition, he had talked to those newspaper sellers many times in the past few days, and he knew that these people were here.

My hometown is pretty good.

So he quickly followed his words and flattered him: I believe it, I believe it. Those who dare to leave their hometown and come out to seek life like you are not ordinary people! I think your life now must be better than before but not as good as below. I guess it can be regarded as the same at home.

That’s passable, right?

As he spoke, he winked at him slyly. The uncle was very happy to be praised by him. He didn't expect that this young man knew his situation very well. This guy must not be a good person. He never thought about it.

It would be very satisfying to be able to ask for something from him and be envied by him!

So he laughed at himself very proudly and said: Hey, I don't have any other extravagant hopes now, just so-so, let's do it!

As he said that, his eyes darkened and he sighed: I brought this bearish look on myself. It's all because I was too young, had a big heart, and thought too much. I just wanted to make a name for myself, but guess what happened?

In the end, I found out that the joy was not in vain?! I didn’t get anything, and I still lost half my life.

As soon as Cao Yu heard this, he understood that he was not born with missing arms and legs. He must also be a person who licked blood from the edge of a knife! He immediately pretended to be in awe, nodded with emotion and said: Uncle, you

This seems to be a senior too! There must be a lot of stories here, right?

The uncle ignored his teasing and continued: Hey, don't mention it! It can't be said that I haven't gained anything over the years. At least I have learned a lot of things. For example, I can't be too strong in anything.

, any word that is related to "strong" must be carefully weighed. Using strong, being strong, and trying to show off your strength will not have any good results. In the end, it will most likely end up harming others and yourself!

Seeing that he was standing aside silently, as if listening carefully, the uncle continued: God is still fair. All the things that I wanted but didn't get in those years have been given to me now!

, even if it is exchanged for this cheap life! It’s not a loss!

When Cao Yu heard this, he couldn't help but look at the old man in front of him again. It seemed that he had experienced a lot! That body that was about to fall apart made him feel very sad, and he couldn't help but feel a pity for each other.

Coming up, I couldn't help but look at the uncle with some sympathy and asked curiously: Uncle, what exactly happened here? What did you desperately want back then?

The uncle glanced at him with disdain and said: Money! Apart from money, what else in this world is worth risking your life for?!

What? Did I hear it correctly? It turns out that you are also of the same mind!

Cao Yu became emotional as soon as he heard this, and blurted out with gleaming eyes. This uncle really doesn't want to eat my pig feed! Looking at his frail body, can you imagine that he was once a man who wanted money even if he didn't want his life?! No!

The Jiangyang thief must be a desperado full of crimes! If she knew this, I wonder what she would think! Cao Yu immediately got a bad taste and began to think about how to let her know!

The uncle looked at his joking expression, which changed into something very rich, and continued without paying attention: Only money in this world is the most real to you, and only it will not betray you! In front of it, there are no such things as high and low.

Son, no matter how good you are, it will never dislike you! No matter where you go, as long as you have it, you will feel confident!

Otherwise, this man's topics are very monotonous, either women or money! Cao Yu suddenly had a common topic with him, and quickly echoed: What you said is absolutely right, as long as you don't spend it, it will be worth it.

I will always follow you without giving up! If a person has money, he will have everything! Who will show you any favors again?!

The uncle also had a golden light in his eyes, and he continued hopefully: I worked so hard back then and got nothing, but now I have money, I want a house, I want land, I have a lot of wives and children!

After hearing this, Cao Yu wanted to laugh like a barbell in his heart! This old guy is really just a money thief! How great it would be for her to hear that! He gloated and wanted to fly, and immediately turned to the salesman.

I looked over at the popsicle place, hoping that she would come over quickly and listen, so that I could see clearly the true face of Lushan Mountain!

The old man saw that his face was full of pride, and he was obviously a little distracted. He quickly changed the topic and continued: Hey, do you think that this old man like me is too money-obsessed? You don't know anything else except money?

When Cao Yu heard what he said, he quickly withdrew his gaze and said with an embarrassed smile: No, no, I know you have suffered a lot from having no money, and the warmth and warmth of people's hearts are not all based on this money.

above!

The old man looked at him with satisfaction, nodded and said: You are a young man who is knowledgeable! How can you do it without money in this world? Why should you rely on yourself? It is difficult for a rich man, but it is difficult for a man without money! Why don't you rely on money? You are all counting on others.

Come to help you, what a good thing!

Cao Yu had long understood and knew that this uncle was also a bachelor! Now after hearing what he said, he quickly said with cunning: I know you don’t believe in those evil things! Then why did you just say that it was all a reward from God?

Don’t you want to look at those people’s faces?! Everyone is rewarded by God. Whether it’s more or less depends on God. No one should show mercy to anyone, and no one owes anyone else’s food, right?

!

The old man nodded and said: That's right! Everyone is eating the bowl of rice rewarded by God, but God just gave it to you without saying why! If he is willing to reward the meal so easily, then there will be no end to the meal that day.

It’s about time there were beggars like me! If God is willing to give me a bowl of rice so easily, then he shouldn’t have to wait until I’m like this before I can give him a bowl of rice!

Cao Yu didn't expect that this bachelor could still have thoughts. How unwilling was he? Looking at his sad look, he was speechless for a moment, and then listened to him continue to say quietly: You know you have to wait until God rewards you.

How difficult is it to get a mouthful of rice?! Who do you know who would willingly eat this rewarded mouthful of rice?

Cao Yu stared at him in silence, listening to him continue to complain: If you hadn't done that, you wouldn't have been able to catch the meal even if God dropped it! Everyone hopes that a big cake will fall from the sky.

It insists on hitting you on the head, but you have to go up and catch it without letting it hit you to death. How difficult! It’s not as easy as you think!

Cao Yu couldn't help imagining with him, thinking of him dragging his broken body to the sky and trying to catch up, just like the defeated flower that had been damaged by the wind and rain, struggling to welcome the sun. Yes, it was the defeated flower,

Instead of withered grass. Even if the broken flowers that have experienced wind and rain cannot bloom again in the sunshine, their seeds are still there, and their vigorous vitality is gestated in these seeds of hope.

The uncle's gray eyes were full of desire. It was a desire for life, a desire that refused to die, and a desire that people could see at a glance through his broken body.

.Life is so precious. In front of it, any hypocritical nobility seems worthless. If money can bring people hope of living, would you still think it is shameful?

Money is not dirty, and loving money itself is not shameful. Therefore, there is nothing shameful about everyone living for money. What is shameful is what is the reason why everyone can only live for money!

After all, besides money, there are too many other things in this world. And those so-called other things have actually existed in the world for a long time, and they are the things that really exist. In contrast, money is exactly what people get from magic.

The illusion brought by it. Now using magic money to dominate the real world is probably a chaos that only this magical realism can have?!

Did you see? Only people of the same sex can have such in-depth and honest communication! There is only true love between people of the opposite sex. I’m talking about the kind of true love. Don’t think too much about it!

Therefore, love is sometimes no different from begging. Without some ups and downs, you won’t be able to feel whether it is a failure or a true love. Otherwise, this happiness cannot come too suddenly, and the hot love will disappear suddenly.

If you hit me on the head, not everyone can handle it!

Seeing that his expression was solemn and silent, the uncle continued: This is not over yet. When you finally catch it after all the hard work, you will stuff it into your mouth without even thinking about it.

If this person is hungry and impatient, he will not bother to chew it, and just swallow it whole. Later, if you smack it again, what will it feel like? I'm afraid you can't even explain it yourself, right?

Of course Cao Yu knew what this begged meal was like. He had never eaten pork and never seen a pig run away?! He had no choice but to shake his head and said with a bitter smile: "You don't care what it is?"

Taste? If it can fill your stomach, then it’s good!

The uncle looked at him and said quietly: "You can ignore the taste. Although I can't say how full I am now, I am definitely hungry. But when you look back, you will see how difficult it is to eat this meal. This is what you think."

Do you want it? Anyway, if I could choose, I would definitely not eat this bowl of rice!

Cao Yu sighed sympathetically: Who would want to eat this bowl of rice? Isn't there nothing we can do about it?!

Unexpectedly, the uncle said stubbornly and coldly: I don't think there is anything wrong with this. It is all a gift from God. It is good to have money. You can buy a house and land, and you can even buy a wife!

Cao Yu was confused when he heard this, and quickly said doubtfully: I don't understand what you are saying. Since there is nothing wrong with this, why are you complaining? Now you have everything you need, don't you?

What else is wrong with this?

The uncle said sadly: Hey, don’t you understand this? This thing is still the same as before, but this person is no longer what he used to be.

Cao Yu looked at the old man with a blank expression and said doubtfully: I don't understand, are you saying that you are old?

The uncle looked at him with a dull expression, and suddenly said with a hollow look in his eyes: Hey, it's a pity that she is not there in these good days...

Cao Yu seemed to understand what the old man was regretting, but he didn't expect that he was also a lover! He couldn't help but grinned and said slyly: Ah? Who is she? An old lover?

Cao Yu saw the corner of his eye twitching as if he was admitting, and couldn't help laughing and said: So you are also a temperamental person! Are you still thinking about that old lover? Isn't your current wife good?

The uncle glared at him resentfully and said coldly: What do you know! How can it be the same? Even the best wife is bought!

Unexpectedly, the old man in front of him actually hid his true feelings under his indifferent appearance! Cao Yu is now just a young man who is full and the whole family is not hungry. This kind of confidence that he has never seen in the world makes him feel very good.

He is strong enough to cope with all this, so he doesn't need others to help him or worry about him, so naturally he won't think too much about others.

Cao Yu still has no personal experience of the coldness of this world. At most, he can only have a general idea! He knows that it must be very difficult for this uncle to live by begging, but he can never imagine what kind of hardship it is.

What kind of thing? Who can you ask to think about what this bitterly cold night feels like? Who can imagine it?

What is misery? Anything that falls on someone else is not called misery!

You can only rely on imagining the feeling of the sun shining on your body to keep warm. If you haven’t experienced it firsthand, you must have never imagined it! The combination of hope and despair waiting for the dawn will fly through your mind, accompanied by your body.

The little remaining warmth slowly, slowly passed by with the endless night...
