Chapter 355 Shangxiang

   “Some people wake up every day thinking that I’m going to resign, but the shift is still going on and off every day.

  Some people can’t live anymore, thinking about divorce every day, but don’t have the courage to take action, so that they can’t explain to their daughter why his father hugged that aunt in the office—

And in this small mountain village, some lazy people use the subsidy to improve their food, and continue their current life, as usual, without starving to death; but to get rich, they have to plant, breed, and take the risk of labor and sowing but not necessarily gaining— "

   Teacher Wang said in that letter: "Not all persistence is meaningful, and not all giving up is failure."

  Jiang Yang read the letter at the time, and felt that Mr. Wang was also a person with a story.

  Uncle Wang and him share the same illness, and there are a lot of things to say, but they can’t be said in person, or using instant messaging such as chat software, so there are still constant correspondence.

  Because Jiang Yang was ugly, Uncle Wang and the others wanted to say some words of comfort to each other, so the following letters were all written by Uncle Wang himself.

  Jiang Yang never read their letter again.

  But today, Uncle Wang thinks that Jiang Yang must take a look.

  The letter suddenly mentioned the popular science book that Jiang Yang sent over.

  That book is quite good, and the universe is written very romantically.

  Ms. Wang already knew that this book was chosen by a young man. After all, the handwriting of the letter is different.

  In the previous letter of "persistence and giving up" to unravel Uncle Wang, Teacher Wang has already thanked Jiang Yang for his book.

   But that thank you, although it came from the heart, was just a very ordinary thank you.

  It's a little different this time.

"I have been teaching here for more than 30 years. Some students dropped out of school early and stayed at home; I also sent batches of students out of the mountain, some worked, some went to school, some came back, and some never came back. Among the students, the most promising ones are civil servants, and some of my students in Kyoto are engaged in scientific research, some have become celebrities, some have studied abroad for business, and some have become officials—

  Some time ago, I was thinking, I have worked here for so many years, what is the meaning of it other than seeking peace of mind? Even if I spend my whole life, I can't change the fate of these children. What they call a change in life is nothing but a change in society.

  Until one night in late summer and early autumn, after the students had dinner, they made an appointment to come to school to play.

  They looked up at the night sky, and suddenly a classmate suggested that they take the book you gave out of the classroom, and then, they followed the pictures in the book and looked for galaxies in the starry sky. I suddenly felt that, apart from being sorry for my family, this life was worth it. "

  Uncle Wang saw that Jiang Yang had read the letter, and asked Jiang Yang, "Did you see anything?"

   "See it."

  Jiang Yang nodded, "Praise the book I chose."

  How could the exaggeration be left blank? It made Jiang Yang's heart itch. He seemed to understand, but he didn't seem to understand. It reminded Jiang Yang of a story, the same sci-fi story about the universe and rural teachers, which once gave Jiang Yang the ambition to become a teacher when he grows up.

"this one?"

  Uncle Wang asked Jiang Yang to take a closer look. This is another lifetime, meaning, and retrospect. "It reads like an account of the funeral?"

"Have it?"

  Jiang Yang thinks it's okay.

  Uncle Wang said: "He entrusted me in the letter to put incense in front of his mother's portrait."

  Going to burn incense for no reason—

  Jiang Yang took out the letter and read it again: "Why didn't I see it?"

"Oh, there is another letter." Uncle Wang took it out. There was a PS in this letter, and Teacher Wang wrote it. He was not around when his mother died, and he never had a chance to put incense on his mother. I asked Uncle Wang to help. a favor.

  The letter gave the address of Teacher Wang's younger sister.

  Jiang Yang said: "This is really a bit similar."

   Are you sick?

  Uncle Wang thought it was possible, so he asked Jiang Yang to write a letter to the postman to ask, Jiang Yang: "Why can't you make a phone call?"

  Although I didn't leave a phone number, it shouldn't be difficult to check.

  Uncle Wang: "Hi, I forgot."

   Jumping from writing letters to mobile phones all of a sudden, I am really not used to it.

  He asked Jiang Yang to check, and when Jiang Yang just took out his mobile phone, he suddenly asked, "Why didn't you just call the village?"

Then-

  The two searched and finally found it. Just as Jiang Yang was about to call, Uncle Wang waved his hand: "Forget it."

   Calling now, I don't know what to say.

   Let’s go to the incense sticks first.

  Uncle Wang stood up and asked Jiang Yang if he was okay today. If he was okay, they would go and see according to the address on the letter.

  Jiang Yang said: "No."

The two of them took the subway. The address was quite remote. It was quite far away in Xicheng. After getting off the subway, they took the bus for a while. On the bus, Jiang Yang saw rows of chimneys, and Some dilapidated factory buildings.

  Uncle Wang told Jiang Yang that this used to be a steel factory, and later the steel factory was relocated. Some places have not yet had time to plan and develop, or have already been planned, but construction has not started for a long time, so they are deserted.

  The address is between the barren, new buildings and low bungalows.

  After getting off the bus, they inquired along the way—

   It’s also easy to inquire, because there are many apartments here, many tenants live there, and there are also some fly restaurants, so although it is remote, there are many people, and many people know the address.

   After reaching an alley, they asked an aunt who was basking in the sun by the roadside.

  Uncle Wang said Teacher Wang's name.

   "Oh, the one who cheated on her and killed her daughter." The aunt pointed in the direction.

  Jiang Yang wanted to speak, but he didn't say anything after all.

   Cheating is real.

   But according to Wang Zheng's words, Wang Zheng's death was purely accidental, a car rushed towards them, Wang Zheng was startled, and Wang Zheng probably was too.

   It can only be said that sometimes things are so coincidental.

  Wang Zheng found out that her father was having an affair, and had an accident when she went out to play the next day.

  They found Teacher Wang's younger sister's house.

   Their house has been renovated, with a small supermarket below and an apartment above.

   When Uncle Wang went in to inquire, the female owner of the supermarket: "Who? I don't know!"

   When Jiang Yang went in to inquire, the female owner of the supermarket said, "My mother-in-law is surnamed Wang. Wait a minute. I'll ask for you."

   She picked up the phone.

  Jiang Yang turned his head and spread his hands helplessly at Uncle Wang, "No way."

  Uncle Wang rolled his eyes and lowered his voice: "If you have the ability, let my son come. The dream lover of young, middle-aged and old women is not bragging."

  Jiang Yang: "No, I'm still single."

  Uncle Wang: …

  The female boss called her husband. After reporting the name of Mr. Wang, the person on the other side seemed to say his identity, and the female boss suddenly realized: "Oh, that's the one—"

  She turned her head away and lowered her voice, "The uncle who cheated and killed your daughter?"

   When she said this, she looked at Old Man Wang, "Okay, okay, I understand."

  The female boss hung up the phone, "It's my mother-in-law, you—"

  Uncle Wang: "Mr. Wang's friend, help him put incense on his parents."

  The female boss looked at Uncle Wang suspiciously, but she still led them upstairs. The apartment was still paid by credit card. After the female boss opened the door, she followed Jiang Yang one step behind, saying that the family had cut off contact with Mr. Wang long ago, that is, when his parents died without notifying him.

   Teacher Wang never came back.

   This popped up out of the blue, and I really don't know who it is after thinking about it.
