1979 The Life of Idle Fish

Chapter 13 "The mountains are far away and the road is far away"

Since hearing what happened to the Zhang family, Luo Tao has been feeling uneasy for several days.

As a human being in my second life, I also lived a sixty-year-old life. In my previous life, I had been busy with money, and family ties, love, and friendship seemed to have disappeared later.

Money is a good thing, but it is also a life-threatening talisman.

How many people can look away, and how many are willing to let it go?

The Way of the Sages has been understood by many people since ancient times, including a few of us. We talk a lot but do little. This means that few people understand it.

I am not here to persuade people to do good things or to build bridges and roads. I am not a good man or good person. I am willing to do what I can do to my own ability. That's fine.

As the saying goes: "You can't do anything without money."

Luo Tao was reborn again, which was a blessing from heaven.I will no longer be busy with money in this life, as long as I am one step ahead of the times.

I started collecting antiques again for show-off purposes in the future, and also because I missed the old man Luo Jing. No matter what the purpose is, it doesn’t matter as long as it’s not a career, (referring to selling) it’s a love and hobby.

Luo Tao sat in front of the writing desk, picking up a pen and wanting to write something, but he didn't move.

He was thinking that if he really wrote it, would it really change anything?

He hesitated, turned the pen in his hand, and recalled his days as an educated youth, and the poor and backward farm in his mind;
The group of passionate young people; the excited chants on the threshing floor.

Some are selfless, some are cunning, some are asking for help, some are watching with cold eyes, laughing in front of others and crying after hearing them.

The more I thought about it, the more my heart surged, and I wrote a few words "The mountains are far away and the road is far away".

I wrote nearly [-] words in one morning, and my wife Su Guilan didn't stop writing even when she called for dinner at noon.

The spring of literary thoughts surges, and the words are like the water of the Yellow River rushing, and the water of the Yangtze River is mighty.

Books are spiritual food, and those who create this food are hungry.

It doesn't matter what I write. It can be said that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, making my heart feel cold in the dull summer.

Even though I ate late, I was still hungry. I only stopped writing until my wrist became sore and ached, and my handwriting became increasingly sloppy.

I looked at the love watch, oh!It was only around seven o'clock, and I secretly cursed my hands for not living up to expectations. I was really disappointed, and I lamented why I didn't have a pair of unicorn arms.

When I left the study, I saw Su Guilan and Luo Shaoyi talking about something.

Seeing Luo Tao coming out, Su Guilan hurriedly asked: "What's the matter, it's like being possessed by a demon, lying there writing without eating.

Hurry, I've heated the rice for you twice, if it doesn't come out, I'm going to dump it and make it again."

Father Luo Shaoyi was also full of concern and didn't say a word. Maybe he understood what his son was doing.

Luo Tao hugged Su Guilan and said, "If you always want to do it, just do it to me, your son."

Su Guilan smiled and cursed: "I think I should starve you a few times, and you won't be so poor."

While the two were talking, dad Luo Shaoyi had already brought the rice. The white rice was topped with two large pieces of meat, two poached eggs, and a plate of small green vegetables. What a luxury!
Without further ado, let’s get started.

I guess he ate quickly, and he was joking with Su Guilan and the others in the middle, saying he ate slowly because the meat didn't taste good yet.

After eating, Luo Tao quickly washed the dishes, asked his parents to go back to the house and rest early, and told them to write something in the next few days.

As time went by, I squeezed out time from get off work every day to write. Fortunately, I was busy for more than two weeks and finally managed to write more than 15 words, which I had to delete, edit and repair three times.

He also gave himself a pen name: Fisherman.

After revising and correcting it, I read it for two more days, just because I was afraid that I would be blindly confident and not be able to discover some minor problems.

This is really valuable, and Hongye must learn from it and strive to be more than just words but no actions.

I would like to ask weakly, is there anyone searching for who wrote "The Mountain is Far Away and the Road Is Far"?
In order to save you some traffic, read this book.

Let me reveal a mystery to you. The first mystery in this book lies in the mystery.

The real name of "Mountains Are Away and Roads Are Away" is "Life", and it is Mr. Lu Yao's masterpiece. Copying this book can be regarded as a memory of him!
Why did it take so long to copy and write? Is it because of hydrology?

Ah!Of course this is not the case, and it cannot be admitted that it is. It is just a borrowed frame, and the rest needs to be created by oneself.

Write about a strong Qiaozhen and a Qiaozhen who welcomes reform.

Gao Jialin is a very contradictory person, I don't know how to make him more selfish!

After watching this movie in my previous life, I really liked watching the two scenes of "Breaking at the Bridge" and "Qiaozhen Going to the City to Find Gao Jialin".It depicts the humbleness of this woman in life and her wishful thinking towards love, making Luo Tao seem to see the pity somewhere in that era.

Gao Jialin is not a bad person, but he is sorry for Qiaozhen's infatuation.

Okay, let’s not talk about it anymore, the times are like this, just do it and cherish it.

After everything is ready, it’s time to submit the manuscript. I don’t know if I am strict at this time and whether I can pass the manuscript.

What if you didn’t know that you were submitting your article to “Harvest” before you submitted it?Or "People's Literature".

I rode to the post office and finally mailed "Harvest". I didn't change the place where I copied the book.

As soon as I walked out of the door, I slapped my forehead. I almost forgot all this.

I went back and asked Sister Stamp again. It was easy to remember her name.

"Sister, do you still have a full page of Great Wall stamps?"

The stamp sister smiled and said: "How could the new ones be gone? I will get you as many as you want."

"Oh, just get one edition. I want to ask you something, do you still have the stamps from the past?"

The stamp lady looked at Luo Tao and said, "You are collecting stamps!"

Luo Tao: "Yes! I like this thing."

The stamp sister said speechlessly: "Why didn't you come earlier if you like it? I just remembered to buy last year's one. Why did the one I bought last year not taste good? It has to be stored for a year to get the flavor."

Aren’t I busy with this chatter?Besides, the one I want most hasn’t been born yet?

Luo Tao smiled and said: "There are so many things to do, I didn't think about it at the moment."

Sister Stamp was too lazy to say anything. After searching for a while, she looked up and asked Luo Tao: "Do you want last year's galloping horse?"

"Just want one set. If you have any, bring me a set."

"Okay, this year's golden roosters and camellias are all in stock."

Luo Tao took it over and looked at it. It was not bad. It would not be worth much in future generations. Just buy it to express your feelings.

I also hold it in mind to brag to others in the future, whether I have it or not, I will still have it if you have it.Ha ha!Just thinking about it makes me happy.

"How much is the total amount?"

She quoted the price without looking at it: "The galloping horse and camellia are two yuan and thirty-eight cents, the golden rooster is fifty-seven cents, and the Great Wall is eighty-four cents, a total of six yuan and seventeen cents."

Look at the business ability of the eldest sister. She knows the price without even looking at it.There is no ambiguity in the mouth, and the price is delivered to your ears clearly and brightly.

Luo Tao asked again: "Are there any stamp albums for sale?"

Sister Stamps was no longer calm: "You're so excited to have sex. If you weren't so old, I wouldn't be able to sell you."

Let's talk about the stamp album properly?Why are we talking about age? This aunt is really unpleasant to talk to. Why do you think you are so old?I just praised you for doing well in business, but you just don’t know how to chat.

Feeling guilty, he touched his face, is he that old?

The stamp sister took another stamp album to the side and said, "A total of eight yuan."

Luo Tao didn't feel awkward anymore. It would be better to end it as soon as possible.After a while, I still don’t know if this eldest sister has any other outrageous and heartbreaking remarks.

"Excuse me, please take a look at the money."

"Well, that's right"

call!Finally, I don’t have to look at that face that I love and hate at the same time.

The eldest sister should be lucky to have met this older Luo Tao, otherwise...hehe, you all know.

Waiting for good news.
