Chapter 18 1928 Honest Man - My Neighbor

If you include me, a retired sergeant, there are already six people living in this courtyard.Wherever there are two women, there will be little peace in that small world; where there are three soldiers, the place will be full of murderous spirits all day long.Here, we have twice as much as the vice master, and women belong to the vice master's wife, so it's very lively.And, among other things, I forgot to count those people—because I never know how many people live in those two rooms—these are my brothers who are talented in music and have little rest every day except playing and singing Brother Zi is also a law student at Peking University.

This is assigned by God (let me imitate a Christian who said this sentence), and put the love and excitement in one place so that everyone can live in a noisy atmosphere. If this is God's opinion, I agree.Because some people are born with a gong or a drum, and they will develop serious problems soon after they rest. Bowls, Dangdang gongs and other various things can be coordinated to complete a set.However, why do I have to be caught in this set of "sounders"?Maybe it's me, a retired sergeant, who still retains the appearance of a corporal who can deal with all the noise in action, so I stay here to enjoy it!I am surprised that I am poor, so I can't try to leave this place no matter what.Because of some debts, I was glued to this apartment, and because of the bustle the apartment gave me, it made me restless day and night, and I became a person who is good at anger.I am also surprised that in Beijing, since there are so many apartment hotels, there are often half-empty houses, and there are not many closed doors because there is no guest. Why is this place like a ruined temple, but it is like a market? Moved again?This is luck, indeed, this should really be said about luck.I thought that either the shopkeeper's luck was particularly good, or my luck was particularly bad, and one of the two must be one of the two to have such a natural coincidence.

The apartments near the university area where college students lived were full of deputy masters, and most of them brought a deputy master's wife, just as the authorities deliberately armed the vicinity of the university so that students could honestly shut the door and study. Perhaps in this way, it is true that the students are too scared to go out casually.However, because of this, there is really no need to read the book.On the one hand, guarding against the misunderstanding of the same vice master as elbows touching elbows, on the other hand, he came to receive the ear blessing of yelling, scolding, and sobbing. If you want to study, you will not be free.All of a sudden, all the students living in the apartment near the university disappeared, and countless deputy masters came back again. This is also something that is not easy for me to understand.

In a state of occupation and victory, education can only be completely destroyed and torn to pieces by the vice master.Small personal losses, of course, are even more insignificant. Although I should also thank the owner of my apartment, he has not changed his behavior for many years, and can always make a resident unable to stay for a long time with his unfriendly face. Even the three guys seem to be helpful in this work of eviction Quite a few——but, one went and the other came, the luck is so good, there is nothing to say! During the day, I dare not go out into the big yard, lest people might suspect that I have some bad intentions for his wife, so I just sit by the window in the room and read my "Book of Interpretations".But you want to nirvana~ In the south room, someone beat all the magic weapons in the north room and made strange noises.Among all the silk, bamboo, gold and stone, there is also the slogan; the slogan is always inseparable from the "Dingjun Mountain" of the Ma School, with the first drum and the second drum, and if the beating is insufficient, it will start again.

Put down the book and just listen.But soon, "Dingjun Mountain" ended again, and changed to "Dazhengqin" solo. After the "Dazheng Qin" is played, there is an erhu, and after the erhu is played, there is a flute, and there is a flute besides the flute... From these annoying chattering, I have seen the reincarnation of hell, and I have learned about various scenes of hell.I'm a living person, not relying on a blue-faced red-haired kid, not relying on a bull's head and a horse's face-just relying on these few geniuses to lead the way with his thrilling music, I swam through hell once.

Except for my escape from this apartment, every day I have to lead them through the mountains and rivers of all kinds of troubles.But I cannot be like a prodigal son who walks the dusty sun and the cholera-ridden avenue all day, and the library is closed when I go to the library.And I have to survive, I have to use my failed pen to write the novels I can write, and send them to various places, asking for a small reward, so that my landlord will not evict me.How can I write articles even if I can’t meditate while reading a book in a place like this juggling field?A thousand characters, in the so-called market for my stuff, at least I should allocate time to write a thousand characters every day, and at the end of the month, someone will give me food to eat. In this case, there is no way to write a hundred characters wrote.

If you want to lie on the bed and sleep without doing anything, the music and the singing will bother you and disturb you with the caring attitude that they are afraid that you will suffer from sleep and food, you have to listen to it anyway.He seemed to know that I was not deaf.Plug your ear holes, plug it, even if you don’t see or hear the action, this low-key invisible whip is still beating my soul painfully! I don't understand what kind of world this world is. God has allocated it to me, and I even feel sorry for my daydreaming in a lonely life! "There are two Dazheng Qins, no need to guess, they are from the village of Dashuai." When a friend came to my residence and heard the sound of string songs, he said enviously that there must be two Qins.But after listening to my complaint, he frowned and smiled.

"If you really want to listen to music, then let's switch places?" I said. "But I owe more debts, I'm afraid it won't be easy." My friend obviously wanted to blame his shopkeeper for the trouble in the debt, saying that it might not be possible to change the residence, but I could see it clearly.In fact, my friend was afraid that Dazheng Qin would not let me go.This friend is Mr. Yeping who is very good at composing poems. Sometimes, there is one person in each room, playing the piano as a famous song in the game, and the time is getting longer. It seems that no one is willing to make anyone more energetic than himself. The credit can only be divided equally in the end.Thinking about them, there is probably the resentment hidden in the heart. For the sake of dignity and strength, they will not be able to scold each other, otherwise it will not be the right time for sleep and the sound of the super-plucked piano!

At night, there should always be a little rest. People indulge in it, and for the sake of musical instruments that can make sounds, rest is also a common need.Yes, as I wished, and as the instrument wished, this sacred work was dropped. After the lights are turned on, depending on the interest, sometimes you can get quiet at one o'clock or two o'clock. Thank God, these good neighbors, he and that friend came to invite him to go somewhere else, take the piano and play it in another place for all blessed people to listen to! However, when the weather comes at night, there is a cool wind to blow away the heat of the day and new autumn, and there are still stars in the moonless season. The yard is more suitable for chatting than playing and singing, so respectable Mr. With their elbows exposed, they occupied a considerable amount of territory in the yard, and the discussions began.

I can learn a lot from this, and I am blessed to be able to listen to an officer who looks like a major insulting all kinds of mothers in his authentic Fengtian dialect.I am surprised that a soldier can find so many fresh and exquisite terms in terms of sexual desire, which is better than an artist who expresses emotions in words. It seems to be scolding through a dictionary, and it seems to be reciting a very familiar grammar. I don’t understand. How did his wife feel after hearing this.And what kind of emotion did the other deputy master's wife feel when she heard it. Will I sleep in bed or sit at my desk and do my day's work?Apart from sprinting on paper and recording some swear words for my neighbor, the deputy, which can be used by people who study ethnology in the future, I can't do it by writing a doggerel. This is like a military camp.Just like the military camp in the past I dreamed, after a victorious battle, the first assembly gathered to display the treasures they had looted, and with a throat full of pride and joy, they greeted the innocent people in the same team. Call each other casually.

Only sleep and lie down to listen! From a life of not being able to work or sleep peacefully, I have never felt more troubled about my poverty than I have ever had in my life.To get out of the circle, all I need is forty yuan more than my usual monthly income, or a little less.But for a mere forty yuan, there is no chance of finding me if I pledge my body to someone else.It is thirty yuan, twenty yuan, and there is nowhere to borrow it.The days are still long, and the sins I deserve, I am afraid that I will never be able to be saved if I can bear it. one A gust of wind and a shower of rain can sweep away all the flies and gnats in the room without a trace.In the world, there is no storm that can blow all the music in our yard far away, and there is no wind that can blow me out of this apartment. well!In the old days, after twelve o'clock, these sons of God, tired, put down everything, put down the plectrum of the harp, the right to speak, joy and anger—all fell asleep.I can ask our master, leave a lamp, and do all that I should do at one o'clock when nothing happens.When I'm done I go to bed, sleep gives us real equality, and I forget about it during the day. This happiness has now been canceled again. The reason is that someone wants to play cards.This reason is not contrary to human life and law students love music. If the words carved on one side of the bone were not full of insulting marks, I dare to conclude that they used some insulting words to win or lose the bet.Using nouns like Grandma Sao as a bargaining chip, it seems that everyone at the table has adopted them.Alas, this also comes with the obligation of an outsider to listen. Amid mutual insults, they suddenly heard a breakup.The people seem to have all stood up, and they heard the sound of the table being moved, one of them oppressed the opponent with that heavy tone, and the other comforted them. He punched him from one side, but from the other side, suddenly, a teacup flew up and landed on the man's head, blood was about to flow, didn't he have to send someone to call for a doctor temporarily?Even if it can be persuaded temporarily, in the middle of the night or just before dawn, one of them who has suffered a disadvantage will quietly get out of bed, grab a knife, stick it in the belly of the sleeping person, and slip away by himself. News heard in the newspaper? ... At the table, I can still imagine the weaker self-contained air.The one who wants to take revenge at dawn with a knife must be this person. I am so worried about this war.I figured that there would always be murders in this yard tomorrow morning even if there were no murders.On the one hand, I am grateful for the quarrel, because the end of the fight is always very fast.As long as the two parties are persuaded to calm down, most of them will be able to remember the meaning that time bestows on people. The so-called "Lu Zhonglian" should be able to understand the efficacy of sleep to explain hatred. The delicate operation performed on a husband to appease his anger will be completely nirvana by around two or three o'clock at the most. It sounded like a vice-lord had been dragged away to the west room by another person, and the weaker man was being murmured by his wife.At the same time, the table was moving, and the four legs of the chair made strange noises as they dragged on the brick floor.Another person was pouring the tea from the teapot into the cup, or this was the lady's way of persuading his lover to calm down. There was no bloodshed as I expected. Although there is no guarantee that the tragedy will happen in the morning, but the time has come to end the aftermath. My heart is to put down a heavy hammer. I think after a while, we can all close our eyes. up. But there was something more unexpected. It wasn't long before I heard that the west room had passed the north room twice.After another three minutes, the person who used the force had already heard the proposal to touch the wind again.The card, which fell on the ground, has almost been picked up, of course, on the vermilion lacquered square table, each of the four put out a hand and put it together there! Although I still heard their mutual apologies, and the wives from the sidelines helped explain the misunderstanding with a smile, I still have the omen of tomorrow in my heart.At first, I thought that as long as these people change their "chips", I will always have the hope of sleeping.By this time, it was unsuccessful again.There are very few scoldings. From the sound of shuffling the cards for a long time and the heavy sound of a card being thrown down, we can understand the bad feelings in everyone's heart, but it still exists.The second time I played, I was worried that there would be two murders. I don't know when before four o'clock I was released by the noise and still fell asleep. When I woke up, the law student's flute first surprised me, the second was the sun on the window, and the third was the sound of the Beifang card. "There's nothing new under the sun," and I'll have to take on all the burdens of yesterday until I move out when I get rich. June 1927
