Although he drank a lot, after returning to the hotel, he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
Those who came to toast Shen Lin and drink with Shen Lin appeared in his mind one after another.
The clearest feeling he had at this time was that his old friend was doing better than he imagined.
For a time, many thoughts kept emerging in his mind.
If... if I stay and create a career with Shen Lin, will the sky be brighter for me from now on...
These thoughts filled his heart with a lot of pride, but when he thought about the students in his school and his abilities, he finally shook his head.
So early the next morning, he said goodbye to Shen Lin and prepared to go back to teaching.
Shen Lin did not persuade Gu Hongde to make this choice. Everyone has his or her own ambitions. When Gu Hongde needed help, he would help without hesitation.
But when his partner made a choice of his own path, Shen Lin was not prepared to forcefully oppose it.
After having a simple breakfast with Gu Hongde, Shen Lin smiled and said: "Hongde, I still have some work here, so I won't accompany you."
"I'll ask Nariko to take you back."
"I can just take the shuttle bus. It's quite convenient to take the bus here." Gu Hongde scratched his head and quickly declined.
Shen Lin waved his hand and said, "Aren't you here to buy solar garden lights? How can you take them away when you take the shuttle bus back?"
"Anyway, Chengzi has nothing to do. It's just a good time for him to follow you back for a spin."
While talking, Shen Lin patted Gu Hongde on the shoulder and said, "Come over and play with me when you're fine."
Gu Hongde felt warm in his heart when he saw Shen Lin getting into the car and speeding away.
Secretly sighing in his heart, Shen Lin has really demonstrated his high emotional intelligence in such a way as a person. He clearly sent Chengzi to take him home on a special trip. He was afraid that he would have a psychological burden, but he said it so simply, but it was just to help Chengzi. Take a walk around the countryside.
Nariko was already waiting for Gu Hongde. Nariko, who was driving a small truck, said with a smile: "Brother, in order to deliver the goods to you, I can only drive you back today."
Looking at the small truck, Gu Hongde said: "Isn't this very good? This car is very good."
"Of course this car is good." Chengzi said this, patted Gu Hongde and said: "You kid, remember it. You should run more when you have nothing to do in the future."
"Brother Shen said, we friends can't keep in touch with each other less just because we grow up, don't you think so?"
Listening to Chengzi's instructions with a smile, Gu Hongde solemnly said: "What Shen Lin said is so right. He was in such a hurry when he left just now that I forgot to tell him."
"Just say that I welcome him to come and play with us."
When Chengzi heard what Gu Hongde said, he laughed and said: "Okay, I will definitely convey your words to you after I go back."
The pickup truck drove quite steadily, and Nariko didn't drive too fast, but before lunch, we arrived outside Gujia Village, where Gu Hongde lived.
It is close to mountains and the roads are not very easy to walk. Especially the last five miles of mountain road, it is impossible for cars to pass.
Looking at the winding mountain road, Nariko glanced at Gu Hongde's yellow rubber shoes again, and a feeling of emotion arose in her heart.
"Brother, I'm not telling you. Brother Shen invites you to come to MiKe with him. I think you should agree."
"At the very least, working at MiKe Electronics is much better than working here."
"If you don't want anything else, at least think about your wife and children. As a man, don't you work so hard just to give your wife and children a good living condition? Take a look, the environment here... "Ningzi's words were full of advice.
Gu Hongde took out a cigarette and lit it, and said with a touch of emotion in his words: "Ningzi, I thought about what you said last night."
"To be honest, I tossed and turned all night and didn't get much sleep."
"With Shen Lin here, it will be easy for me to leave. For me personally, it will be a step to the sky. Living conditions will be improved in all aspects, but... our school is almost falling apart."
"Children in school will be out of school."
"I'm not the kind of person who doesn't know what's good and what's good. It's just that... I just feel a little reluctant to think about these student kids without their whereabouts!"
After Gu Hongde said these words, the corners of his eyes turned red. At this time, he was speaking from his heart.
He also wanted to live a good life, but he just couldn't bear it.
Looking at his skinny childhood friend, Naruko felt a little moved in his heart. No, no, not only moved, but in his heart, he was in awe of Gu Hongde's original intention and belief.
He knew that it would be difficult for him to devote himself to education for the children in the mountains like Gu Hongde. This was a great cause that would benefit the future generations, but he was still prepared to do his part to help his old classmates. .
"Brother, call someone. We can't get rid of the things in this car just by ourselves."
Gu Hongde looked at the closed door of the van, waved his hand and said: "Although the solar garden light is a bit heavy, there are six or seven of us, so the two of us should be able to carry it back."
"Wait a minute and I'll memorize more. You can just take two."
"Ma Gan'er, you nerdy guy, if it's really just a solar garden light, can Brother Shen let me drive a car like this over here? Stop nagging and call for help quickly. Get some cars over, otherwise , I can’t pull it away at all.”
When Nariko said this, he took a picture of the carriage and said, "It's all full!"
Looking at the high compartment of the small truck, Gu Hongde didn't know what to say. He felt a wave of heat in his heart and his eyes were almost wet! Shen Lin, Shen Lin!
Although Nariko only said four words, they were full of meaning, and he knew very clearly.
"Okay, you wait here, I'll call someone."
In the village, Gu Hongde's prestige was quite high. In just over twenty minutes, twenty or thirty people followed him, pulling a trailer.
They looked at Chengzi's pickup truck, their faces full of curiosity.
"Oh, is this a truck? Why is it still closed? Doesn't this...doesn't it take up space? It's going to take a lot less stuff!"
"Isn't that right? Brother Hongde, please tell this man that his car is not good!"
"You have to at least remove the top of the car, so it can hold more."
Listening to these discussions, Chengzi felt helpless. He never thought that his small box truck would be said to be useless.
"Everyone, please help us get the things. They are all delicate things. Please be careful." As Nariko spoke, he opened the carriage.
The moment Nariko opened the carriage, Gu Hongde saw that there were forty or fifty solar garden lights piled up in the carriage.
Although these garden lights were not too expensive, only thirty yuan each, but Shen Lin gave them so many at once, which still made him excited.
"Please be careful, these are solar garden lights. If they are damaged, they will not work."
Following Gu Hongde's instructions, the few young men who came to carry it carefully picked up the garden lamp, as if they were holding their precious treasures.
Nariko looked at them and said with a smile: "Everyone, relax. Our garden lamps are not so valuable. As long as they don't fall, it will be fine."
Although Nariko said this, everyone was still cautious.
After finishing the energy-saving lamps, Gu Hongde saw that there were many things in the carriage. For example, he saw a box with a pattern that showed a TV set; another box that turned out to be an exquisite schoolbag, and a He couldn't recognize the box-like thing, and...
Looking at these mountains of things, Gu Hongde didn't know what to say.
"Nariko, please don't uninstall the TV. We rarely have electricity here, so leaving it here is a waste."
Gu Hongde saw Nariko unloading the TV and said quickly.
Nariko smiled and said: "This is teaching equipment for the school, you can keep it."
"Besides, don't worry about electricity. Brother Shen has prepared a large solar battery for you. Haha, it's a little troublesome, but it can still be used."
Gu Hongde was once again moved by Shen Lin's attentiveness and generosity. He stepped forward and patted Chengzi on the shoulder, took Chengzi's hand and shook it vigorously.
"Don't say anything, just move over and we'll install them all today."
