Chapter 61: The Collapsing Town

Maybe because of the morning, there were only two or three tables of people scattered in the hot pot restaurant.

After Zhang Haidong ordered the dishes, he quietly made a drink and drank it while sitting at his seat.

The store is fully heated, which dissipates all the coldness brought by the body.

A long time has passed.

As people were arriving one after another, Liu Shan finally walked into the hotpot restaurant wearing fancy casual clothes.

"Brother Dong, you've become handsome again! It's really been a three-day separation recently, so you should be impressed!"

As soon as he entered the door, Liu Shan joked with a smile.

Then he rubbed his hands and shook off the cold air from his body before sitting down and putting his coat on the back of the chair.

Seeing Liu Shan's gaudy outfit, Zhang Haidong felt uncomfortable in his heart. He didn't look like a married person, but more like one of those free and easy single aristocrats.

"You really know how to talk. How about your favorite spicy rabbit head hot pot? Please be satisfied."

Zhang Haidong pushed a drink over first.

"Spicy rabbit head hot pot? It's exactly what I like, Brother Dong. I haven't had this for a long time."

Liu Shan happily took a sip of the drink and said, "Then what are you waiting for? I'm still a little cold, so hurry up and start the pot."

"Waiter, fire is on."



Take the meat slices out of the steaming hot pot, and then dip them in the base. The pores on your whole body instantly relax, and a refreshing and refreshing breath spreads all over your body.

Comfortable!

There is nothing more beautiful than this in winter!

The two of them picked up the wine glasses in their hands and clinked them. A sip of strong wine went into their throats, which even warmed their throats.

Zhang Haidong spoke slowly: "You seem to be very fashionable recently."

Liu Shan was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "That's right. Marriage has restricted me for so many years. Isn't this a chance to liberate my nature? Look, I'm wearing this patchwork casual outfit, am I going to go back to it all at once?

In your twenties?"

Zhang Haidong smiled and did not answer.

After taking another bite, he said: "It doesn't matter if you liberate your nature. But you know very well that Bai Yourong only wants to waste his energy and quarrel with you. It's been almost a month since she returned to her parents' home, and you haven't even thought about picking her up.

What? After liberating one’s nature, one can abandon the family? Or after liberating one’s nature, one’s family must also be liberated?”

I don’t know if the words were a bit harsh, but Liu Shan was silent for a while.

After being stunned for more than ten seconds, he slowly spoke: "Actually, I feel clear in my heart, Brother Dong. It's just that I may have suppressed it for too long, which makes me feel an inexplicable fear of this kind of married life.

"

As he said this, Liu Shan seemed to be in a bad mood, so he picked up the wine glass and took another sip.

"I hate this kind of life of counting food, rice, oil and salt every day, so once I let go, I cherish this kind of time, even if it is just one minute and one second. I am too lazy to pick up the mother and son."

I don't know if it was the effect of alcohol or the emotional strings touched, but Liu Shan's eye circles were a little red.

Hearing what he said, Zhang Haidong felt a flash of guilt in his heart.

After getting married, who doesn’t live a life with daily necessities of firewood, rice, oil and salt?

Marriage is like a small city. Once you enter, you have to circle around the family in this besieged city and constantly repeat those trivial things.

Around my wife, around my children, around the kitchen...

This is a kind of pressure, but also a kind of responsibility and happiness.

If I hadn't borrowed so much money from him for no reason, I think he would have lived a very happy life with daily necessities.

Thinking of this, Zhang Haidong quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, Shan. I shouldn't have borrowed so much money from you for no reason, causing you stress at home and causing disputes. But don't worry, I will help you in the next year."

, I will definitely be able to repay all the money I lent you."

Hearing this, Liu Shan was startled: "She told you that the reason why we got divorced was because I lent you money?"

Looking at Zhang Haidong's complicated and guilty eyes, Liu Shan sighed and said: "Brother Dong, how can it be that the breakdown of love in marriage is due to one or two simple reasons? It is the long-term accumulation and suppression, and the accumulated conflicts have exploded.

That’s all.”

"Nothing to do with you!"

As Liu Shan spoke, he picked up his wine glass and touched it heavily with Zhang Haidong.

At this time, the originally bustling sound in the hot pot restaurant suddenly turned into a harsh noise in Zhang Haidong's ears, making him irritable.

I have always warned myself not to look at the world with the mindset of a teenager.

But when something serious happens, I always use this simple mind to look for ideas, and then try to understand it all.

The final result proves that in many cases this kind of thinking cannot solve any problems at all.

Bai Yourong and Liu Shan did not divorce simply because they lent money to them.

But there were some unstable factors in their marriage.

Only by resolving this unstable factor can their marriage get back on track.

He picked up the drink in the cup and drank it in one gulp. It seemed that some of the alcohol smell on his body had dissipated. Zhang Haidong then said: "Then can you tell me, from your first love to now, you two have such a deep relationship that you even have children.

!Why do we still quarrel and get divorced? What exactly is the depression you are talking about?"

Liu Shan happily picked up the rabbit head and took a bite. Refreshing sweat flowed down his forehead.

While wiping his sweat, he said: "Suppression comes from many aspects, and I can't explain them all. The biggest one is her desire for control."

It seems that the alcohol in her body has taken effect, making Liu Shan a little excited: "I also know that she is very hard at home. In addition to cooking and washing clothes, she also has to be pregnant for ten months and then take care of the baby. So I After I get home from get off work, I will definitely help her with housework. Washing clothes, washing dishes, cooking... I will do all the things that I can do, just to relieve her of some burden. Besides, the old man does not need to wait for her now. , when one day the old lady is old and needs someone to take care of her, I will also help her without any hesitation."

"But what about her? It seems that after taking control of some aspects, these things become natural. The desire for control that comes easily, not only instructs me in housework, but also controls me in everything in life and work.

.I went to the wine shop with the leader of the company to discuss business, and she called me and yelled at me not to go home after drinking. I lent money to my best friend, and she thought that the family was being emptied, and I didn’t care about her and her at all.

My child... I bought my parents a sweater worth 300 yuan, and she would buy her parents a sweater worth 1,000 yuan..."

After saying this, Liu Shan let out a long sigh: "There are countless others like this. I really can't stand the depression anymore."

"One more go!"

Liu Shan's eyes turned red, he picked up the cup and touched it with Zhang Haidong again.

"Brother Dong, you also know how I chased her back then! Braving the hail, I ran three miles alone, returned to my house, took an umbrella and sent it to her school. Because her family asked her to stop raining before leaving.

I feel so bad when I go back! When she fell and lost blood, I went to the hospital alone to guard her. I could have given her my life if she had lost her blood! When I was in college, I worked a part-time job and could save 300 yuan a month.

Money. As long as she said a word, I got on the train and ran for more than two thousand kilometers, just to give her a cup of warm milk tea at the door when she was out of school..."

As he spoke, Liu Shan's tears flowed out: "Everyone said that she has big breasts, but she has big breasts...what's the use of just having big breasts!"

"Our love has changed! We can't go back to the past!"

A man in his thirties broke down at this moment and lay on the table crying.

Zhang Haidong's thoughts were even more chaotic for a moment, as if a soy sauce bottle had been knocked over in his mind.

He didn't know how to comfort Liu Shan.

The collapse of an adult occurs in an instant.

This is not the passion of youth, but an occasional emotional outburst that will then calm down.

This is a real breakdown.

The kind of collapse you feel when you are powerless in the face of real life!

There is a small city in everyone's heart, and that small city contains your happiness, your worries, and even your youth...

But one day, when that small city could no longer withstand those storms and was destroyed, that small private world ceased to exist. Only a walking, soulless body was left.

Zhang Haidong understands Liu Shan's current state very well.

It's not like he's getting fancy or thinking about cheating.

His behavior was a forced counterattack, not against Bai Yourong's mother and son, but against the adult world.

Yes, if you live like this, you will also get bored.

There is a reason why those seeds grow from being planted to towering trees.

At that time, I thought things were too simple.

Du Jing did not suppress Liu Shan like Bai Yourong did, nor did she put any pressure on herself...

But what about the future?

Will this be the case in the future?

Something no one can guarantee.

Zhang Haidong didn't want to know, nor did he want to think too much.

"Waiter, here's another bottle of white. Instead of Rose Fen, let's have a bottle of Yellow Fen!" He waved.

He didn't go to comfort Liu Shan and let him have some quiet time first.

After the small world collapses, it is extremely difficult to rebuild it. At least I can't help at all.



Huang Gaifen's temperature was a full 53 degrees. Zhang Haidong didn't say much. He filled a glass and drank it with Liu Shan.

Dimly, he seemed to remember the love he talked about in high school, the most memorable article he had ever read, and he even recited all the best parts of it.

"You will regret it whether you get married or not. The cat in the alley is free, but has no destination. The dog in the wall has a destination, but will have to bow his head throughout his life. In this question of life, no matter what choice you make, there will be regrets!"

I just forgot who the author was.

When I look back at it now, what I wrote is not the bloody reality!
