Chapter 38 Thirty-seven, all beings are suffering

When Chen Jianxia was woken up by the phone call from the hotel, he felt as if he was stuck in quicksand and couldn't get up no matter what.Fortunately, Li Ran taught her how to use the hotel's morning call service, otherwise she would have to be late with her weak PHS alarm clock. Why is the bed so comfortable? Why can't even the more comfortable bed wake up?Chen Jianxia stretched her waist, feeling that her whole body had been treated with a disease of wealth, and there was no pain in any part of her body. I must not be used to going back to the dormitory tonight, it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

After washing, she picked up her schoolbag and opened the door. She ran back to the room with a few steps, and hit the soft bed with a back dive, and bounced. Goodbye.She touched the quilt and couldn't help laughing. Even Li Ran couldn't tell about such a shameful move. Li Ran explained everything yesterday, and she called a taxi by herself.While waiting for the bus, I saw Xia looking up at the towering buildings behind me, thinking, one day I will fly around too, busy and sophisticated, and I will use Shangri-La as a transit point for rest.Most definitely. The city center in the morning rush hour is a bit congested, and the cars stop and go in the outer lane near the sidewalk. Jian Xia accidentally glanced out the window and saw his mother passing by with Xiaowei.

In an instant, it was like a basin of cold water being poured from head to toe, and a hot water bottle was cooling the heart. The taxi's glass is not covered with film, so it can be seen clearly from the outside. Fortunately, Xia's mother didn't notice her.Chen Jianxia sat down desperately, put her school uniform on her head and pretended to be asleep.But the car was stuck at the intersection, waiting for the red light with the mother and son, Jian Xia stared at them through the gap in his clothes, after a long half a minute, the two turned the corner while talking. Jian Xia finally came back to life.

She stared blankly outside for the second half of the journey, and the school uniform was never taken off her head. She dared to be so bold yesterday because she was sure that her mother would not care about her, and would not call her at night to ask her about her health.But what if Yu Dan also knew about the leak in the dormitory last night?Will you ask her?Will you not believe her?Will you call her mother? Chen Jianxia bit her lip and calculated closely.All those romantic and charming thoughts of last night have disappeared. The taxi is parked at the alley of the school itself, where there are few people and not conspicuous.Jian Xia paid the fare, and saw Yu Sisi as soon as she opened the door.

"Don't you live in a dormitory? Where did you come from?" Yu Sisi really hit the nail on the head. See Xia Xiaoxiao: "Yesterday there was a water leak in the dormitory, and the dormitory teacher asked me to go back to my own house. My family has moved to the provincial capital." The last sentence, coupled with a confident smile, successfully diverted Yu Sisi's attention, she turned and left with a contemptuous smile of "this is also worth showing off". But it also blocked Jianxia's own way.She wanted to call her mother, and lied that it was too late last night and didn't want to disturb her brother's rest, so she went to stay at the Railway Bureau Hotel by herself.

Seeing Xia standing there thinking for a long time, she still thought that Yu Dan needed to take preventive measures, so she called to talk about the railway bureau hotel, and her mother was busy seeing her younger brother off, but complained that she was too timid and didn't say anything . Now I just pray that Yu Dan and Yu Sisi will not confess to each other. Trembling all morning, Yu Dan didn't seem to have received any news about the water pipes in the dormitory.Li Ran sent her a text message when she was queuing up for exercises between classes, there were only two words, look up.

Jian Xia looked up and saw a lone figure on the roof of the teaching building, leaning on the railing and blatantly escaping the exercise between classes. You can feel the heat of his gaze from afar.With so many people, how did he know which little black spot she was?Or did he not know at all? Seeing Xia laughing, the episode in the morning was completely forgotten. She was too happy. After finishing the exercise, Chu Tiankuo called the class committee members together, went back to the teaching building ahead of schedule, and went straight to Yu Dan's office for a meeting.Seeing Xia standing at the end of the crowd, listening to Yu Dan announce the school's opinion on how to deal with group fights in the basketball game.

"Compared to fighting, I don't want to see everyone put their minds in wrong places. I understand that you are for the honor of the class, but impulsiveness is impulsive. What should I do if I hurt my bones? Should I suspend school? Chu Tiankuo, this time you It's too remiss." Chu Tiankuo's voice was very sincere: "I'm sorry, it's all my responsibility." No wonder.Jian Xia secretly smiled in his heart.Whenever she realizes that only she understands Chu Tiankuo's duplicity, she will feel a little proud. Yu Dan didn't blame Chu Tiankuo too much, and continued in a gentle tone: "Our class and the second class are both suspended. After preparing for so long, getting such a result is already a lesson enough, so I won't say anything more. I heard from Yu Sisi that the school is still investigating the second class who is mixed with other classes to make trouble, and it is very easy to investigate, and will not let it go easily."

Seeing Xia's heart skipping a beat and staring at the back of Yu Sisi's head, she couldn't help frowning.Then she comforted herself, Li Ran's family is so rich, didn't they say that as long as he is willing, he can even enter top classes like class one and class two?It's a big deal to warn one by one, it's not the first time for him. Thinking of this, she took out her mobile phone, stood in the last row and secretly sent a text message to Li Ran. "There is nothing left. I think we should hold another class meeting. Chu Tiankuo and Sisi will organize it together, so that everyone can reflect on the lessons learned this time. Unity is a good thing, but collectivism can't lose your mind. Go back Let's go to class," everyone responded and prepared to leave, when Yu Dan suddenly remembered something, "By the way, Chen Jianxia?"

When Chen Jianxia panicked, the phone fell to the ground, and the plastic body couldn't help falling. Every time it hit the ground, the battery board would fall out, and this time was no exception. Fortunately, there were several rows of people blocking the front, so she buried her head and quickly picked up all the parts, before assembling them, she put them into her pockets. "What are you doing?" Yu Dan's tone was very dissatisfied. "I knocked something off," Chen Jianxia tried to make her voice sound upright, and she did it - now she saw that Yu Dan was still angry, and her guilty conscience turned pale, "What's the matter, Teacher Yu? I'm listening. .”

The voice was light, sincere and frank, even Chu Tiankuo was a little surprised when he heard it. Yu Dan frowned very quickly, and didn't pursue it: "You stay here, the dormitory teacher told me that the leak in your dormitory will not be repaired for a while, and you can't live in it for two days. It doesn't matter to Zheng Jiashu, your accommodation is good. Solve it. How did you live yesterday?" Yu Sisi laughed, and interjected softly: "Jian Xia said that her family moved to the provincial capital." What, do you think I'm making up nonsense?Seeing Xia glance at Yu Sisi, she didn't realize how sharp her eyes were. "Yes. My younger brother is studying in the provincial capital and has just settled down. My mother also said that she would come to the school on Monday to say hello to you." All of a sudden, Yu Dan's attempt to ask for her mother's phone number was blocked. Chen Jianxia quickly made up her mind: Today is Thursday, she will go home to stay for four consecutive days starting from today, and by next Monday, no one can remember exactly how many days the dormitory has been leaking. Jian Xia left the office with everyone.She almost bumped into Yu Sisi when she passed the door, she stepped back half a step, and smiled brightly at Yu Sisi: "You go first." you.Yu Sisi lowered her face and left quickly.It was Chu Tiankuo who walked last, staring at her for a long time, seeing Xia finally couldn't help asking, what's wrong? "No, I just think you've changed a bit." Jian Xia blinked and looked at Chu Tiankuo, but Chu Tiankuo tilted his head to look at the portrait of the chemist hanging in the corridor. "For the better or for the worse?" Chu Tiankuo rolled his eyes and thought for a while: "I think it has changed for the better." Jian Xia smiled really heartily this time: "That's good." While waiting for the bus after school, Jian Xia talked with Li Ran on the phone and told him everything that happened that day. Li Ran agreed and told her to be careful. The house my mother rented was two bedrooms and one living room. Jian Xia and her mother lived in the second bedroom, and my younger brother lived in the master bedroom by himself.Seeing that Xia was quite critical, her mother felt that she had many problems: "What's the matter with the master bedroom and the second bedroom? The beds are all the same size. Your younger brother wants to study, so of course he has to live in a big room." Anyway, I didn't want to come back. Seeing Xia Fu complaining, I stopped arguing and started talking about asking my mother to visit Yu Dan. "Teacher knows that you are here as a permanent resident. I want to see you. There is nothing special. I just said that you planned to go on Monday. It's not rude." Jian Xia hugged her mother's arm, said it easily, and smiled. It's so pleasing, just like a female Li Ran. If I had been so submissive when I asked my mother for a backgammon repeater, instead of being firm, would the result be different? Mom pinched her cheek with a smile, and then ordered: "Keep your voice down, your brother can't hear the noise while doing homework, and you don't understand him." Jian Xia's smile froze.Then when she was reviewing for the senior high school entrance examination, her younger brother turned on the TV so loudly in the living room and laughed along, so what?No matter how easy it is, I can't get a repeater, so what is she thinking. But these troubles are not worth helping my younger brother with homework.Xiaowei is not smart, but he has a strong sense of vanity. When he sees Xia talking about everything, he says that he already knows it, but when he does a question, he is dumbfounded. He is impatient when explaining to him. The siblings inevitably quarrel. On the one hand, he thought she was impatient, so angry that Chen Jianxia only stayed for two days, and rushed back to the dormitory on Saturday morning with big bags and small bags. She didn't tell Li Ran that she had regained her freedom. Instead, she spent these two days studying hard, studying until midnight every day. I work hard for you too.Jian Xia bit the ass of the automatic pencil, thinking about the position of the auxiliary line, and thinking about Li Ran. Li Ran still asked her in the text message, do I count as your boyfriend? Chen Jianxia didn't answer, but silently made plans to take care of both. It might be tough, but she won't give anyone the chance to accuse her of not doing her job properly. Winter has come quietly, another year. Jian Xia dug out Li Ran's scarf from the box and wrapped it round and round. November was a world of ice and snow, and more and more time was spent trapped indoors with heating, and the conflict between Chen Jianxia and Yu Sisi at the same table became more and more intense. If there is really any big problem that can be solved, let it be.Between the two of them is a thin sewing thread, densely packed with small knots that cannot be untied or straightened; it is a grain of sand that has not had time to be poured out of a shoe during the long march, and it is a closed cell A mosquito in the well that cannot be caught but is always buzzing around the ears is a barrier that girls all over the world cannot escape from; the toad in the well raises its head, and a small thin cloud covers the entire sky. Little things happen every day: you spilled my water glass and wet my pencil case; you spilled my water glass again and wet my notebook; you spilled my water glass again... The smaller the matter, the more it hurts internally, because looking at it alone, none of it is worth getting angry at, and if you take it seriously, you will be ruined. "Then buy a water bottle with a lid," Li Ran didn't understand, "Why do you keep using a glass?" "I bought it! Sometimes you can't stay bored after receiving hot water. Occasionally, she didn't have time to cover it after taking a sip. When she got up to go to the toilet, she always made such a big movement. She shook the table and spilled me again, and she yelled loudly." Say I’m sorry, she was super enthusiastic to help me find tissues, everyone thought she was just reckless—whatever recklessness, once or twice, trembling every time, did she have Parkinson’s? When she found the tissues, I would lose all my notebooks!” Seeing that Xia's eyebrows were erected and she was about to go on attacking again, Li Ran held her back and put his index finger on his lips to signal her to keep silent. There were approaching footsteps and voices. Li Ran accompanied Chen Jianxia to skip physical education class, and the two sat together in the stairwell on the top floor of the administrative area.During self-study in the afternoon, this area becomes a treasure of pure geomantic omen. Many people are tired of the foul air in the classroom and are willing to read books or chat in the stairwell, but they did not expect that someone would check here in the morning.Jian Xia pulled Li Ran's sleeve in a panic, and asked him with his eyes, what should I do? Fortunately, the footsteps stopped downstairs. But the voice almost made Jian Xia lose his temper - it was Yu Dan. Li Ran patted her on the back reassuringly, motioning her to listen carefully. "Can't wait for me to get off work?" Yu Dan's voice was a little excited, even if it could be suppressed, it could be clearly heard. "It's inconvenient for me to always answer the phone at school. If I hang up, it means I have something to do. I keep calling over and over again. What does Mom mean? Is there something so urgent that I can't wait for a moment? You also complained to you over and over again." Hit, are you trying to force me to stay in school?" At the end, I was crying. "How long have we been married? Eight years? How can I be sorry for your family? What did your family have when we got married? Did I care about it? Yes, your mother is looking forward to a grandson. What age is this? Ask yourself Colleagues around, it's ridiculous!" Jian Xia slowly lowered his shoulders.It turned out that such a story happened to Yu Dan again. Yu Dan is still different from her mother.Her mother herself was looking forward to a son, and happily conceived a second child. "Seeing that there are only half a year left before the third year of senior high school, the students I am leading this year have achieved results. It is impossible for me to prepare for pregnancy at this time. What should I do when I am in the third year of high school? Let me hand over the top class I brought to others? I passed the college entrance examination to Tsinghua University Who is on the top of Peking University? You keep saying that you understand me, you and your mother are messing around together, why do you understand me?" Yu Dan hung up the phone, and cried on the floor below Jian Xia's feet. After crying, he finally calmed down after blowing his nose a few times.Jian Xia listened solemnly to the sound of footsteps gradually disappearing. "It's not easy for anyone." After a while, Jian Xia sighed softly. "Yes, all living beings suffer," Li Ran also lamented, "Birth, old age, sickness, death, resentment and hatred, separation of love... separation of love... what are the other two?" The atmosphere became more relaxed, and Jian Xia smiled: "Can't you show off? Forgot?" "……can not remember." "There are also things you don't know, which is great." Li Ran snorted.Jian Xia turned to look at him seriously: "Then why do you suffer?" "Let's talk about your troubles first." Li Ran asked her back. "A lot," Jian Xia pointed her finger, not shy, "study is getting more and more difficult, Yu Dan stares at me like a thief and looks down on me, has no friends, Yu Sisi fights against me every day, parents are biased, pressure Big……" Unknowingly, she has been able to reveal the undercurrent in her heart so easily. For Li Ran, she never had a mask. "I've answered you. It's your turn. Do you have any troubles? Birth, old age, sickness and death? It's not even a question. The meeting of resentment and hatred, separation of love..." Jian Xia asked. "I remembered what the last two are!" Li Ran patted his forehead, "One is called Unable to Ask, and the other is called Wuyun Sheng." "……what?" "My grandfather told me," Li Ran stared at the cross window glass on the opposite wall, "the five aggregates are the root of all suffering in the future, the five aggregates and six senses, sensuality, and sensuality are all obsession and pursuit of life. If there is pursuit, there will be suffering, and there is no one who is not suffering in life.” Jian Xia was fascinated by what he heard, even though she knew about Li Ran, she only knew a little about it. "Then what to do?" she asked. Li Ran smiled: "It's simple, if you become a monk, sex is emptiness." "Go away, nonsense, you go to become a monk!" "How could I become a monk? What if I become a monk—" He said, approaching suddenly, and lightly pecked her lips, seeing Xia blushing quickly. "Rogue!" She jumped down a few steps and turned to glaring at him. Both of them kept secret about their first kiss in the hotel that day, and they didn't have any intimate behavior until just now. First kiss... Seeing Xia thinking of this, she suddenly looked at the old fritter in front of her very suspiciously. Naturally, it was her first kiss. What about him? "Hey, let me ask you," she tried her best to look indifferent, but subconsciously touched her lips with her fingers, "You...is this the first time you kiss someone?" Li Ran was silent for a long time, then said softly, "No." Seeing Xia was stunned. However, Li Ran slowly showed a bright and wicked smile. "That was the second time just now."
