Chapter 46
After Ye Shuang finished updating his novel today, he found one or two more comments. Fortunately, they were not bad reviews. He had no confidence in the novel he wrote, but when he saw the good reviews in the comment area, his mood suddenly improved a lot.
A kind word warms the three winters, while a bad word hurts the six months of winter.
Even if it is just an insignificant good comment, it can warm the author for a whole day.
"Go out and see that little thing." Ye Shuang turned off the computer, then took his mobile phone and car keys to go to the pet hospital.
The pet hospital is in the village in the city. There is a lot of traffic in this area. Only a few people are locals. Most of them are migrant workers who rent houses here. Maybe it will be difficult to buy a house in the city even if you work hard all your life. The money earned in the first half of your life is destined to go to the hospital in the second half of your life.
"Bang!" Just as Ye Shuang was driving through the crowd, a tricycle suddenly appeared on the right side, and it seemed to collide with the car body in a bumpy ride.
Ye Shuang was stunned for a moment, then frowned slightly and got off the car.
The driver of the tricycle was a gray-haired old woman, about eighty years old, with wrinkles on her face like knife cuts. She was hunched over at this time, and her two wrinkled palms were clasped together helplessly. Seeing Ye Shuang getting off the car, she smiled awkwardly at this time, as if to please, "Kid, I hit your car..."
Ye Shuang glanced at the car and found a long scratch.
"Old man, where are your family members?" Ye Shuang asked.
The old woman heard this and grinned, "My son is in the hospital..."
She felt in her pocket and finally took out a white plastic bag with scattered banknotes. After counting all the red coins from it, her voice was a little hoarse, "I'm so sorry, your car is so beautiful."
Looking at the three hundred yuan held by the old man's calloused fingers, Ye Shuang shook his head, "No, old man, take it back, and be more careful next time."
"No, no, no."
"Okay, don't say it." Ye Shuang pushed the money back and said, "It's okay, I can fix the small scratches myself, old man, you go back, pay attention to safety."
The old woman rubbed her hands and could only say gratefully, "Thank you, kid, you are a kind person."
"It's okay." Ye Shuang glanced at the foam boxes piled on the tricycle next to him, and saw the old man struggling to climb up and pedal the tricycle away, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Who is not trying to live?
At the age of 80, you still come out to ride a tricycle to make money. Why are there so-called successful people on the Internet who say that you are poor and that you didn't get a raise because you didn't work hard enough?
The saddest thing in this world is not the so-called helplessness, but the limited vision - no matter how hard you try, there is always a barrier that cannot be broken through, and in the end, you can only improve your current predicament.
Ye Shuang still remembers that a billionaire in the Hong Kong area once said that people are poor because they are lazy and unwilling to learn, but when he participated in the program and really experienced a day as a sanitation worker, he found that he couldn't stop at all. Working hard for a day was only enough to barely meet the needs of eating, let alone learning.
There are always so-called "successful people" who have stepped on dog shit and turned over, saying that all achievements are due to their own efforts, but they don't know that luck is the most important factor.
Not long after, Ye Shuang drove to the pet hospital and saw the kitten.
The orange rural cat huddled in the corner of the cage, looking very timid.
"It has passed the critical period and will be discharged in a few days." The pet doctor said on the side.
"Thank you, doctor." Ye Shuang nodded.
Before leaving, Ye Shuang paid another treatment fee. He roughly calculated that the money spent on this kitten, including the surgery and subsequent hospitalization expenses, was nearly 10,000 yuan.
"You are lucky to have met a kind-hearted god." Ye Shuang sighed. If it were him, he would not spend such a large sum of money to save the kitten.
But he would not teach Bai Yuyou this. After all, everyone has their own choices... With Ye Shuang's current adult thinking, he considers more realistic things, but if he were still in middle school, he might also help the kitten with all his money when he saw such a situation.
"Meow?"
After seeing that the cat was out of danger, Ye Shuang also left the pet hospital and went to the 4S shop to repair the car.
After all this trouble, it was already evening when he returned home.
Ye Shuang bought the ingredients and cooked soup in the kitchen early to prepare for dinner.
After dinner, Bai Yuyou and the others came back soon.
"Hey, hello, brother." What Ye Shuang didn't expect was that Tang Keke also came back. At this time, she scratched her head shyly, "Yuyou pulled me up and said that I should have dinner together."
Tang Keke refused at the time, but when she thought of the food Ye Shuang cooked and the big pot stewed by her mother at home, the comparison suddenly became really delicious.
"I would have made more soup if I had known." Ye Shuang smiled.
"Do you need to deal with the ingredients? Let me help!"
Tang Keke put down her bag and immediately came over to help cook in her slippers, and Bai Yuyou followed closely.
The kitchen, which was not big to begin with, became crowded with two more people.
"No need, go to the sofa to rest." Ye Shuang looked at the Dharma Protectors on the left and right and shook his head.
"It's okay. I'll wash the vegetables, Yuyou will cut the vegetables, and my brother will cook. It's not tiring to work with men and women." Tang Keke showed a cat-like expression, "Two women and one man, double the efficiency."
Ye Shuang only felt a strange smell after hearing this, but didn't say anything.
With the addition of Tang Keke, the kitchen became a little more noisy, but there was a more homely atmosphere.
Ye Shuang, who was sandwiched between the two girls, suddenly felt that this was not bad.
After the food was placed on the table, Ye Shuang just sat down and casually asked about the grades of the two people, "How are your grades in school?"
"Ah this..." Tang Keke scratched her head a little embarrassedly, and even Bai Yuyou looked aside a little guilty, with her beautiful eyes wandering.
"Very bad?" Ye Shuang asked while picking up food for the two people.
"I remember that although Yinshan College does not require the college entrance examination, you still need to take an exam to enter the fourth grade of the college, right? If you fail, you will be held back for a year. If you are held back twice, you will be asked to drop out."
Tang Keke suddenly became depressed, and her voice was choked with sobs. "Oh, that's right."
"It seems that your grades are worse than I thought. If that's the case, I will tutor you later." Ye Shuang also said at this time.
"Could it be that your grades were very good before, brother?" Tang Keke's eyes lit up, and Bai Yuyou also looked over with a little curiosity.
"It should be okay. Although I have forgotten some knowledge points now... but there should be no problem tutoring you." Ye Shuang nodded.
"After all, I was the city champion that year."
Tang Keke, Bai Yuyou: "Ah?"
