I really don't want to be a teacher

The middle-aged woman didn't speak, just stretched out her hand, took out nine yuan from her trousers pocket, put it on the table, and gave some money.

Turning around again, the middle-aged woman walked out of the noodle shop and walked away along the road.

Looking up, watching the middle-aged woman drift away, the owner of the noodle shop lowered his head, looked at the crumpled invitation card in his hand, and the noodle money on the table,

Beside, holding the owner of the noodle shop, the old man in Taoist robe watched the middle-aged woman leave, seemed relieved, let go of the hand holding the noodle shop owner, then turned his head, looked at the noodle shop owner,

"...Old Xu, I know that you also have good intentions. But if you don't think about yourself, you still have to think about your son and daughter-in-law. It's not like you don't know...what the situation is, no matter what it is. You It's better not to touch that bad luck on your son's big day."

The old man in Taoist robe looked at the owner of the noodle shop, and said something again.

The owner of the noodle shop lowered his head, looked at the crumpled invitation card in his hand, and the noodle money on the table, a little silent,

Just sighed again,

"thanks……"

Nodding his head, he thanked the old man in Taoist robes.

The owner of the noodle shop put the crumpled invitation back into his apron pocket.

The old man in Taoist robe shook his head, looked towards the noodle shop again, and walked back to the place where he sat before.

"...Lao Xu, what Lao Yu said is also reasonable. No matter what, it's not good if something happens on your son's happy day..."

Beside, the old couple who were sitting by the back kitchen door and turned their heads towards this side also spoke to the noodle shop owner.

"... just thinking that it's all from the neighbors, and it's the fault of the sinners..."

The owner of the noodle shop said again,

The old couple was also a little silent.

Lowering his head, the owner of the noodle shop stood up again,

Still walking closer to the table, he reached out and picked up the nine yuan in front of him, holding it in his hand,

Then he picked up the bowl and side dishes, cleaned up the dishes on the table, and walked towards the back kitchen.

……

Turning his gaze, he looked outside the noodle shop, where the middle-aged woman was walking away,

Lian Ge turned his gaze back to the owner of the noodle shop who was walking towards the back kitchen.

In the hands of the noodle shop owner, the side dish that was served to the middle-aged woman earlier was already a bit cold.

That middle-aged woman has never touched a dish of chopsticks.

After taking a look, Lian Ge withdrew his gaze,

Then eat the noodles casually, listening to some sounds in the ears.

In the noodle restaurant, it seemed to be quieter than before.

The old couple, the owner of the noodle shop, and the old man in Taoist robes were silent for a while,

Only then did some voices resound in the noodle shop.

"...That...is quite sinful."

"...It's the fate of a widow. Anyone who gets close to her will have trouble after a long time... It's also a crime, I don't know, what evil did I do in my previous life..."

The old couple turned their heads back one after another, said a few more words, and sighed.

"...Old Yu, she is really lonely, so who can't she get closer to?"

The old lady among the old couple turned her head and asked aloud to the old man in Taoist robes.

"...No matter what it is, it's better to stay away..."

The old man in Taoist robe responded aloud, shook his head again, and said nothing more.

"...Let's not talk about this, let's eat... After eating, we will go to the vegetable market."

"...Don't wait a while, the daughters have brought the little ancestor back, and we haven't bought any food yet."

"……it is good."

The old couple turned their heads back again, then ate their noodles and said some short words.

……

"Boss, settle the bill."

Listening to the voices ringing in his ears, Lian Ge took another bite of the dishes on the table,

Putting down the chopsticks, stood up again, and said something to the owner of the noodle shop who was still in the back kitchen.

"...Hey, here we come."

The owner of the noodle shop came out of the back kitchen again, and walked up to Lian Ge in response.

"...a total of 12 yuan."

The owner of the noodle shop looked at the table and said something again.

Lian Ge took out a banknote from his pocket and handed it to the owner of the noodle shop.

"...Here, here is your zero."

The owner of the noodle shop took the money, found the change, and handed it to Lian Ge, then felt in the pocket of his apron with his other hand,

Take out a brand new invitation card,

"...Young man, my son will get married in a few days. Come and have a drink, young man."

Smiling, the owner of the noodle shop said aloud, and handed over the invitation.

"Thank you, the owner. I'm just passing by, so I won't go to the wedding banquet."

After thanking him, Lian Ge took the change, casually stuffed it into his pocket, and with a smile on his face, he said aloud,

"Let's just wish your son and daughter-in-law a happy marriage for a hundred years."

After saying something aloud, Lian Ge turned around again and walked towards the outside of the noodle restaurant.

"Thank you, thank you, I will lend you a good word, young man."

The owner of the noodle shop withdrew the hand that handed out the invitation, and thanked him with a smile.

Seeing Lian Ge walk away, he put the invitation card back in his apron pocket and picked up the dishes on the table.

……

Moving his feet, he walked out of the noodle shop.

Along the road, Lian Ge looked towards the street again,

Not far from the street, the old men who were playing chess were still sitting or standing around the shade of the tree, shouting something,

There were also a few old men standing around, watching the chess game, turned their eyes and looked towards the side of the road a little farther away.

Glancing at those old men playing chess, following the gazes of those old men, Lian Ge looked to that side,

Next to the roadside, a little farther away, a figure was walking towards the gate of an old community on the side of the road.

Chapter 948 Gram

That figure was the middle-aged woman from the previous noodle restaurant.

The middle-aged woman lowered her head, hunched her waist, and her slightly messy hair hung down, covering half of her face.

He was wearing black trousers on his lower body, a long-sleeved singlet on his upper body, and was carrying a bag in his hand.

Walking forward, gradually leaving the road, and gradually approaching the gate of the community on the far side of the road.

……

"Let's go."

Glancing at the middle-aged woman, Lian Ge moved his feet away and walked along the road towards the gate of the community a little further away.

On the shoulder, the little white mouse also stood with its forelimbs, looking towards that side.

"...It's also a crime. When I was young, I had no father and no mother. Now that I am this old, I still have no children. Just such a person..."

Walking past the shade of the tree, next to the old men playing chess, Lian Ge listened to the voices of words ringing in his ears with the gusts of breeze.

Under the shade of the roadside tree, the old man standing there who was watching people playing chess raised his head, looked at the middle-aged woman on the side of the road a little further away, sighed, and said aloud.

"...Lao Yang, what are you talking about?"

In front of the talking old man, the old man playing chess listened to the words, raised his head, and looked around.

The old man who was talking raised his chin, and pointed to the middle-aged woman who had already walked to the gate of the community with his chin.

"...That is the life of a widow, and there is nothing I can do about it. The life is too hard, and her mother let her kill her when she was born, followed by her father, her grandma, and her grandfather. Before she was born, this The family is full of peace and harmony. After having her, from top to bottom, they died cleanly... It's just that after so many years, some unbelievers, get closer to her. Things, it's good to die..."

An old man who was sitting opposite and playing chess turned his head to look around, then turned around and said,

"...You said that this evil sect is not an evil sect, and you don't know what evil you did in your previous life to suffer this kind of crime in this life."

While talking, the old man who was playing chess shook his head,

"...Listen, there was a husband who gave her orders before, saying that she is a lone star and evil star, who will overwhelm everyone around her."

Another old man next to him spoke up.

"...No matter what it is, it's better to stay away from this situation. It's bad luck if you get involved."

"... Listen, she seems to have been married before, why didn't she hear anything after that?"

An old man asked again.

"... Hey, things are going to happen if you get closer, so the married ones can still be safe?"

"...After a few years of marriage, I died. I went to help catch fish in the weir and pond. The water was drained, and there was only a little water left there. I fell, and I guess I fell and passed out. , buried his head in the water, and drowned like that. There were several people in the weir pond at the time, but no one saw them. The fish, by the time I looked at it, had already died of breath."

"... Will! Let's not say a few words about this kind of thing."

Sitting, the old man who played chess moved his chess, shook his head, and said something aloud.

The old men next to each other fell silent, and didn't continue talking.

"...Hey, old Lu, you are fucking deceitful... Did you change the pawns again while I wasn't paying attention?"

"...Fuck you, why did you change the game? If you can't afford to lose, you can't afford to lose. There are so many eyes watching..."

Under the shade of the tree, several old men who were playing chess surrounded the chess game again, making a noise.

Passing by the old men playing chess, Lian Ge listened to the voices in his ear,

Along the road, I moved my feet forward, and looked at the middle-aged woman a little further away,

Lian Ge approached the gate of the community, and the middle-aged woman also walked into the gate of the community.

……

This is a somewhat old neighborhood.

The gate of the community is rusted and painted, and the shiny iron door has been held all year round. The hinge on the upper half of the door next to the wall is already a little crumbling.

Open inward.

Through the open iron gate, there is no guard at the gate.

Just a few women, the old lady dragged an old bamboo chair to rest behind the door, chatting some gossip.

"... Mrs. Chen, you are enjoying the blessings now, and your grandson is grown up. You don't need to take care of him, and your son knows how to be filial to you... The clothes and materials don't look cheap..."

"... Hey, my grandson is grown up, and I can live for a few more years..."

"...Don't say that, you look like..."

Walking to the gate of the community, Lian Ge turned his gaze, looked inside the gate of the community, and then at the middle-aged woman who walked into the community not far away,

The woman still bowed her head, hunched her waist, and walked towards the community with her things.

Beside, sitting next to the gate of the community, a few women were talking while resting from the cold, the old lady saw the middle-aged woman,

They stopped talking one after another, turned their heads to look at the middle-aged woman, and turned around again, as if their backs were turned away from the middle-aged woman.

I didn't look at the middle-aged woman, and no one spoke.
