: Calmness in Gain, Calmness in Loss

Xu Damao received a call from northern Shaanxi. Tian Runye's voice sounded a little timid.

"Hey, is this Jichun City? I want to find Teacher Xu who came to your place from Sijiu City."

Xu Damao: "Teacher Xu doesn't have one, but my brother does have one. I wonder if you need it, little Runye?"

"Ah, you haven't contacted me for a long time."

"Aren't I busy? I just came back from hunting in the forest and snowfields two days ago."

"I also made a special trip to kill some mink for you, and I will have someone make a scarf and send it to you some other day."

"It will look great with your little face. You can wear it for me when the time comes."

"Um."

The two talked on the phone for a long time, and finally decided on the New Year's Eve. Tian Runye came to Sijiu City to celebrate the New Year.

Anyway, Xu Damao doesn’t bite him when he has too many lice, and he doesn’t have to worry about his debts.

What's more, even if she didn't tell her about her relationship with Tian Runye, the women in her family wouldn't believe it.

After Tian Runye's experience during this period of time, she still has very important arrangements for her in the future. It would be good for them to get to know each other in advance this year.

After Xu Damao hung up the phone, he went downstairs and sat down in front of the fireplace.

Hao Hongmei made a cup of tea and brought it over, then leaned against him and said.

"When I went upstairs just now, I heard you talking on the phone, and you seemed to have mentioned Teacher Tian Runye."

"Well, she is responsible for the school affairs first, and some daily work reports are necessary."

Hao Hongmei: "Principal Xu, when you return to Sijiu City in a while, you won't leave me here, right?"

Xu Damao: "It depends on what you want. If you want to stay here, I can arrange a job for you."

"If you follow me back to Sijiu City, I'm afraid you'll have to rest for a while, unless you still want to work in an instant noodle factory."

Hao Hongmei: "Of course I am willing to follow you. If there is no job, there will be no job. You are not willing to starve me anyway."

While the two people were talking, the dog in the yard barked, and then there was a knock on the door.

Hao Hongmei got up and opened the door, and soon she came in with Hao Dongmei carrying a lot of things.

They are all items with local characteristics. Even if you take them back to Sijiu City and give them away, they will still be unique.

"What are you doing?"

"Teacher Xu, you blame me for being too talkative for telling my mother about your recent plans to visit Sijiucheng."

"It's not convenient for my parents to come here, so they asked me to bring you some local specialties for your family to try when they return to Sijiu City."

"Your town is too polite. If I had known, I wouldn't have let you go back to those prey yesterday."

"Go back and thank your parents for me. When I set a date, I will make a special trip to treat them to dinner."

The two people sat down and talked a lot of nonsense. People like them rely on nonsense to find a lot of things.

Whether you can understand it or not is your problem, but what kind of family raises what kind of person?

Hao Dongmei is still a little far away from Lou Xiao'e and Zhou Xiaobai these days, but she is much more decent than ordinary people.

Either she received some guidance when she came, or the existing atmosphere suppressed her performance.

After chatting for a while, Hao Hongmei went to the yard to add firewood to the ground dragon.

Hao Dongmei's expression became a little unnatural, she glanced at the door and said.

"Teacher Xu, I seemed to have a dream when I stayed here the night before yesterday?"

Xu Damao frowned, picked up the tea cup, took a sip, put it down and said.

"The ancients said: All living beings are suffering, and we can only overcome it by ourselves. God's will is impermanent, so let nature take its course."

"Dreaming is hard to control. I also had a ridiculous dream recently."

"But I told myself that if it's a nightmare, let it disappear with the sun."

"If it's a sweet dream, just think of it as adding a little spice to your short life."

"We are the new members of society. Don't take everything too seriously. I wonder what kind of dream you have, Dongmei?"

Hao Dongmei stared at Xu Damao without blinking, and then said something.

"It should be considered a sweet dream, but what should I do if I still want to dream like that?"

"After all, Teacher Xu, you just said that life is short, and it is necessary to add a little spice to yourself."

Xu Damao...

"If you want to have sweet dreams, you must first have a quiet environment without being disturbed."

"I also need a good attitude to gain my luck, lose my life, be calm when gaining, and be calm when losing. Without these, I can't stand it."

The meaning of Xu Damao's words has been made very clear, and Hao Dongmei certainly understands the meaning.

It's okay to have a sweet dream, but first of all, his life cannot be disturbed, otherwise don't blame him for being ruthless.

You also need to have a good attitude, don't get angry because you can't get an appointment, and don't be too clingy.

If an ordinary person said this, Hao Dongmei would go up and slap him twice.

But Xu Damao's words are particularly weighty, and they are true.

Life at home has just settled down not long ago, and my parents are in high positions.

A little bit of wind and rain in their home may bring bad hidden dangers, so what?

Hao Dongmei was holding a teacup over there but did not drink. After a while, she spoke.

"Can I visit Teacher Xu's study and experience the quiet and scholarly atmosphere?"

Xu Damao: "I welcome this very much. There are many books in my room, and it is not convenient to carry them back and forth."

"You can see what kind of books you like, and I'll give them to you."

The two of them went to Xu Damao's room upstairs one after another. She was looking through the books stacked in the room.

After Xu Damao turned on the recorder and played a song called Yunshui Zen, he made a cup of tea and placed it next to her.

The sound from the tape recorder came slowly, like flowing water, overflowing the entire room.

The water mist on the tea cup rises, making the whole room quiet, warm, and cozy, making people forget to leave.

Hao Hongmei sent this woman, whose name was only one word different from hers, away with a smile on her face, looking very polite.

But if you look carefully at her eyes, you will find that there are four big words "no more than that" written all over them.

When she came back from adding firewood to Earth Dragon, there was no one in the living room on the first floor.

Could it be that Principal Xu's small class has started again, although I can't attend the class in person.

But her yearning for learning was always ready, so she gently came to the door of Xu Damao's room on the second floor.

I pressed my ear tightly against the door and eavesdropped. Maybe it was because the door panel was blocking the sound, and the sound coming from inside was a bit muffled.

However, this was refreshing enough, and it also increased Hao Hongmei's knowledge.

It's just that the study time is too short. This class hasn't been in for a long time, so I keep asking for leave from the teacher.

After Hao Hongmei returned to her parents' house, her mother had been waiting for her in the living room.

"Dongmei, what's wrong with your legs?"
