I didn’t sleep well on my first night in Donghai. In the past, in the village, no matter it was day or night, it was so quiet that I could hear the sound of wind and insects. At night in Donghai, the air was always filled with inexplicable noise. It was not yet dawn, and the building
Then the sound of footsteps, voices and various other sounds could be heard.
I got up and came to the window. There were already many people walking in a hurry in the alley downstairs. People were coming and going in the breakfast restaurant opposite. The steamed buns in the steamer were steaming. Many people were holding bags in one hand and food in the other.
Okay. In the vegetable market not far away, the vendors have already laid out various ingredients. Many old men and women are carrying baskets to select inside, and the sound of bargaining can be heard from time to time.
Taking a deep breath, the air was filled with an indescribable smell, far less clean and sweet than the air in the mountains.
I got into a good posture and played the old magic gun's "Tai Chi Tour" once. I exhaled a breath of turbid air and felt refreshed.
I took out the Four Treasures of the Study from my bag, sat on the sofa, and started doing homework that I had been doing for more than ten years. Holding my brush, I suddenly thought of three sentences in the middle of the main hall of Mazui Village, 'One step for each stage, one place for each scene'
, all the way to the sky', I have never understood the meaning of these three sentences before. After experiencing what I have seen and heard in the past two days, I feel that it makes sense. Get rid of distracting thoughts, write like a dragon entering the sea, and devote yourself to that one
In the stroke of a pen, my grandfather once said, "A monk sat in meditation and became a Buddha. I am a layman, and I only practice calligraphy for peace of mind." When he was in the mountains, as an excellent hunter, Lu Shanmin was a very patient person, and his heart was always calm.
, I never thought that there would be an uneasy day. When I came to the deep steel forest of the East China Sea, I realized that my grandfather had indeed had the foresight to let me practice calligraphy since I was a child.
"Hey", when Zhang Li and Huang Mei walked to the living room and saw the scene in front of them, they were stunned on the spot. A man wearing gray cloth and rubber shoes was writing with a brush in his hand, and he was still writing...
With his upright posture and solemn expression, this picture is too inconsistent.
When the two of them took a closer look, they were even more surprised. Although they didn't know any calligraphy, they were still college graduates from regular universities, and they could still tell the quality of calligraphy in general.
Huang Mei clicked her tongue and exclaimed, "A mountain man who came out of a ravine can actually write such good calligraphy. It's really hard to tell what a person looks like."
Lu Shanmin smiled and said, "I practiced with my grandpa when I was a child. Grandpa said that my calligraphy lacks a trace of real soul and is far from good."
In addition to being attracted by the words themselves, Zhang Li was also shocked by the content. She silently recited, "One step at a time, one stage at a time, one step at a time, one step at a time." These three sentences imply a profound philosophy of life.
She looked at the mountain people in disbelief, feeling more and more unable to see through this person. Is he really just a mountain man who came out of the mountains? If not, his clothes, his surprised expression when he saw those high-rise buildings,
All proved that he was indeed a mountain man who had never seen the world. If so, she could not believe that a mountain man could write such good handwriting, let alone write such a profound sentence.
.
Seeing the incredulous expression on Zhang Li's face, Lu Shanmin said calmly: "Grandpa wrote this sentence, but I actually don't quite understand what it means."
Zhang Li snorted, and the confusion on her face lessened a bit: "You can continue practicing your calligraphy. Huang Mei and I are going to buy groceries."
Zhang Li only cooked a pot of porridge for breakfast and bought a few steamed buns.
Except for Lu Shanmin, all three of them ate with little interest.
"Hey, life is so hard these days." Chen Kun took a bite of the steamed bun, his face full of melancholy.
Zhang Li rolled her eyes at him and said, "Let's just eat now. None of us have jobs yet. If we don't save money, we won't have anything to eat next month."
Chen Kun put down his chopsticks and said, "When I make a lot of money, I'll treat you to a five-star hotel for a feast."
Huang Mei pursed her lips and said, "I'm bragging again. Let's wait until you find a job first."
"I'm afraid that I won't be able to find a job because of my intelligence. Many bosses are vying for me. I've already submitted several resumes online, and I'll be treating you to delicacies in a few days."
Zhang Li ignored Chen Kun's rhetoric and turned to ask Lu Shanmin, "Shanmin, we have all submitted some resumes online. After dinner, we are going to the Baihui District Talent Market. There is a job fair there today. What are your plans."
"
Lu Shanmin took a sip of porridge and said, "I plan to go out for a walk first."
"The East China Sea is so big. Wherever you go, don't get lost." Chen Kun said with contempt.
Zhang Li glared at Chen Kun and continued to say to Lu Shanmin: "How about you tell me your situation carefully, and I will also make a resume for you and post it online. It is better than running around like a headless fly."
Lu Shanmin frowned, "What is your resume?"
When the three of them heard this, they all looked at the mountain people in surprise. Could it be that this kid was really a person who came out of the primitive forest.
Lu Shanmin touched his face and asked in confusion, "Is there something on my face?"
Zhang Li smiled bitterly and said, "A resume is your study and work experience, what are your hobbies and specialties, etc."
Lu Shanmin exclaimed as if he suddenly realized something, "I graduated from Mazui Village Primary School and have no work experience. My specialty is that I am the best hunter in our village besides the big blackhead."
Chen Kun smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Look, I'm right, right? He is our dragster. Can someone like him find a job in the East China Sea?"
Huang Mei also looked at Lu Shanmin helplessly, "I say mountain people, people like you shouldn't come out of the mountains. I think you should go back after spending two days in the East China Sea to see the world. This is not the place you should come to.
"
Before leaving the mountain, Lu Shanmin knew that it was impossible to live well in the East China Sea due to his situation, and he never thought about how well he could live in the East China Sea. The purpose of coming to the East China Sea was to see the outside world, but Lu Shanmin thought that he would find a good life in the East China Sea.
There shouldn't be any problem with eating. After listening to what Chen Kun and Huang Mei said, it seems that it would be difficult for people like me to find food in the East China Sea.
Seeing a flash of disappointment on Lu Shanmin's face, Zhang Li quickly said: "Mountain people, don't listen to their nonsense. Now that you're here, you can't give up easily. As long as you study hard and work hard, you will definitely get better and better."
"Let's do this. I'll make a resume based on your situation first, and then you can think of a solution on your own. Not all jobs require college students to do it."
Lu Shanmin nodded, "Thank you."
"You have helped us, and you are a fellow countryman. You are welcome. Do you have a mobile phone? I can make a resume for you, and it will also make it easier for us to contact you in the future."
Lu Shanmin shook his head.
Zhang Li nodded. Originally it was just a casual question. In fact, it has been discovered in the past two days that Lu Shanmin does not have mobile phones. Nowadays, many people in rural areas have mobile phones. I wonder how remote the mountain village where Lu Shanmin is is, without even a mobile phone.
"Okay, let me leave my mobile phone number first. If there is an interview notice, I will tell you."
"Thank you, can I go with you to the talent market you mentioned?"
Zhang Li smiled apologetically, "Today is a special session for college graduates, but you don't have to worry. The talent market will regularly hold special recruitment sessions for different types of job seekers. Maybe there will be a job suitable for you in the next session."
Lu Shanmin knew that Zhang Li was just comforting him, so he smiled and nodded, "You guys go quickly, I'll go around for a while and get familiar with the surrounding environment."
