atypical rebirth

Meng Zheng originally wanted to go to Feizhuo to research the Buddhist scriptures, but the cat grass that had been planted for more than 20 days had not grown yet.Feizhuo was in a hurry, and circled around Mengzheng, tangling about the cat grass all the time.

In fact, Meng Zheng had a bad premonition, but in order not to hurt the child, he kept procrastinating.Seeing that the child couldn't wait anymore, he found a shovel and turned up the soil in the hand-made flowerpot.Who would have thought that the hole at the bottom of the flower pot was blocked, two thirds of the soil was soaked in water, and the seeds had obviously been soaked!

Although cat grass germinates very well, dogtail grass is especially unlucky, but the premise is not to soak it!

"Strange... According to the watering frequency I said, the seeds will not be soaked!" Although Meng Zheng has never raised flowers and plants, he has helped his parents grow vegetables.As an adult with both racial talent and related experience, he doesn't believe he can grow cat grass like this!

However, because this was what Shen Feizhuo wanted to plant, Meng Zheng gave him the main task of planting, such as watering, and let Shen Feizhuo do it himself.Sometimes Meng Zheng is a bit busy, so he can't take care of it.

"Shen Duqing, did you secretly water it behind my back?" Meng Zheng looked at Shen Duqing suspiciously.

"I didn't!" Shen Duqing looked at Shen Feizhuo suspiciously, "Feizhuo, how did you water it?"

Shen Feizhuo said cutely: "Water a little in the morning and a little more in the evening."

Meng Zheng: "..."

Meng Zheng did always see Shen Feizhuo running to the balcony to chat with cat grass, but he never thought that Shen Feizhuo would also be watered while chatting.Watering a lot in the morning and evening, the cat grass was watered to death by Shen Feizhuo!

Shen Feizhuo continued to say cutely: "When I water, if the water overflows, I will take it to the bathroom and pour a little." That's right.

The water was overflowing... Meng Zheng twitched the corners of his mouth and asked, "Feizhuo, why do you water so diligently? My brother clearly told you that you only need to water when the soil on the surface is a little dry." .”

Shen Feizhuo frowned and asked, "But, if you water more, won't the seeds grow faster?"

"Why do you think so?"

"That's what you say every time you persuade me to eat." Shen Feizhuo said confidently.He ran up to Shen Duqing and imitated Shen Duqing's tone: "Feizhuo, eat more, you can grow taller. Drink more, you can grow stronger. We can grow taller and stronger by eating and drinking milk. How many brothers are there?" Can you grow taller and stronger by drinking a little water?"

Oh, this kind of child is still Shen Feizhuo's younger brother.

"Poor parents in the world, I really want it to germinate." Shen Feizhuo imitated adults and sighed.A mouthful of pure natural black pot was thrown to the adults in this way.It's justified, it's simply irrefutable.

Shen Duqing knelt down and rubbed his younger brother's face.You little brat, what kind of parental heart do you know!

Meng Zheng took the opportunity to explain to Shen Feizhuo the principle of haste but waste: "Although we will persuade you to eat a little more, we are also persuading you to eat within your ability, so why don't we let you eat a meal?" Did you drop a rice cooker? Surely not? If you really eat that much, your stomach will definitely be broken. And you watered the seeds too much, which has exceeded its tolerance. Very It takes time for a seed to grow, you have to be patient and wait for it to slowly break through the soil instead of watering it vigorously..."

"Can that seed still germinate?"

Looking at the innocent eyes of the child, Meng Zheng hesitated.He wondered if he should deceive Shen Feizhuo and replace it with other seeds so as not to make the child sad.But Shen Duqing shook his head at him, and Meng Zheng chose to tell the truth: "Unfortunately, it can't be done. They were damaged by you watering them, and they can no longer germinate."

Shen Feizhuo didn't cry, but was very disappointed.

Meng Zheng led Shen Feizhuo to the bottom of the building, dug a shallow pit in the flower bed, and buried the soaked seeds together with the moist soil.That night, Meng Zhengdu was reasoning with Shen Feizhuo, and he was always paying attention to Shen Feizhuo's mood, so he forgot about Shen Duqing's purchase of Buddhist scriptures.

When Meng Zheng came back to his senses and remembered the Buddhist scriptures again, he found that Shen Duqing had formed the habit of flipping through the Buddhist scriptures every day before going to bed.Meng Zheng calculated that Shen Duqing was in the second stage of middle school.Many teenagers like to develop some unique hobbies in the second period to show their uniqueness.

Could it be that Shen Duqing's hobby is being a monk?

This is not impossible.

Shen Duqing is a very smart child with a high IQ.Meng Zheng jumped the grade with him, but his family knew his family affairs, and Meng Zheng knew what was going on with him. He regarded himself as a hardworking player, but he thought Shen Duqing was an absolutely talented player.In his heart, his evaluation of Shen Duqing was higher than his own.

Meng Zheng thought about the news he saw before he was reborn. The graduate students from the mathematics and physics departments of the top domestic universities are all smart people, but every year there will always be a few well-educated students who choose to become monks.

Their IQs are too high, and they can't help thinking about the origin of life and the universe, so they are attracted by religion.

Fearing that Shen Duqing really wanted to become a monk, Meng Zheng cooked a pot of braised pork on weekends.Seeing the two brothers of the Shen family eating one piece after another, Meng Zheng tentatively said to Shen Duqing: "When you become a monk, you won't be able to eat meat..."

"This is not absolute. Northern Buddhism forbids meat, but Southern Buddhism is also primitive Buddhism. They have a tradition of begging for alms. They eat whatever they can, and they don't pick meat, so they can't stop meat." Shen Duqing said.

It's only been a few days. I didn't expect Shen Duqing to understand Buddhist culture so clearly!

Meng Zheng asked worriedly, "You don't plan to become a monk, do you?"

Shen Duqing was amused by Meng Zheng's appearance of "fearing that the child would go astray", and said, "Ah! You misunderstood, I, I am indeed reading Buddhist scriptures recently, but I just...just want to cultivate my body and mind."

"Then don't cultivate too much."

"Afraid that I will become a monk? No, monks cannot marry, but I still want to find a lover to marry."

Meng Zheng: "..."

Children nowadays, put the word "marriage" on their mouths when they open their mouths and shut their mouths, and ask you adults if you are afraid.Before his rebirth, Meng Zheng, a man in science and engineering who had never had a serious relationship for 26 years, silently shut his mouth.

For people with plans like Meng Zheng and Shen Duqing, time always flies by.In a blink of an eye, I passed the high school entrance examination.The senior high school entrance examination needs to be divided into examination rooms, and the two of them are lucky, the test center is in our school, and there is no need to rush to other places to adapt to the test center.But before Meng Zheng was reborn, the Longshan Junior High School he attended was not a test center, and he had to go to the town for the test. They went to the town together to stay for two nights.In such a comparison, this time it is really much more convenient.

The elders of Meng's family didn't know whether they had confidence in their own child or Mr. Xu's family. The child was about to take the high school entrance examination, but they didn't even come to the city to see it.Of course, it may also be because they feel that at such an important stage as the senior high school entrance examination, it is better for them not to change their children's life rashly, so they hold back.It was not until the end of the senior high school entrance examination that Meng's mother and Grandma Meng brought Meng's father to the city.

Meng Duo is studying in the first day of junior high school, and the first day of junior high school has not yet had a holiday, so she didn't come.

The Meng family came to the city this time to look at the house.It’s not that they will be able to buy the house right away, but that they have the willingness to buy, want to know the price, look at the house, etc., which can be regarded as a preliminary preparation for buying a house.Because they planned to stay in the city for a week, they wanted to find a relatively cheap guest house to live in.

But Teacher Xu insisted on stopping them and didn't let them stay in a hotel.

Teacher Xu said that the house where Shen Duqing and Meng Zheng live now has three bedrooms in total, and the largest bedroom is set aside for Grandma Meng to sleep in.The bedroom where Meng Zheng lived was vacated for Father Meng and Mother Meng.Meng Zheng ran to squeeze with brothers Shen Duqing and Shen Feizhuo, and everyone was able to stay.Where is the need for the elders of the Meng family to live in a guest house!Because of the friendship between Meng Zheng and Shen Duqing, the two families have a good impression of each other, since this is the case, there is really no need to engage in those hypocritical politeness.

So it's settled.

On the first day when the Meng parents came, Mr. Xu booked a private room in a cheap restaurant near their home, and the two families sat together for a meal.The elders of the two families frequently contacted the children behind their backs on the phone.Teacher Xu called Meng's family at least once a month, talked to Meng Zheng's parents, and let them know about Meng Zheng's situation at school.

Because of this, even though this was the first time the two families met, the atmosphere became warmer as they chatted.

The cultural level of the two elders is not at the same level, but the Xu family is not noble, and the Meng family is not vulgar.Grandma Meng and Grandma Shen actually had a good chat, and Mama Meng and Zhou Peili also had a good chat.Teacher Xu, Grandpa Shen and Dad Meng were left. Teacher Xu filled up the beer for everyone, and the three of them drank it in one gulp.

Teacher Xu also looked at Meng Zheng and Shen Duqing and asked, "Do you two want to come?"

"Don't drink alcohol to the children, they are still young!" Zhou Beili patted her husband.

"It's not too young! The high school entrance exam is over. Beer is not intoxicating, why don't you have some?" Teacher Xu urged.

Meng Zheng handed the cup from the matching tableware to Teacher Xu: "Mr. Xu, can you pour me some?"

"Cheer up! Full top full top!" Teacher Xu continued to encourage his eldest nephew, "Would you like Duqing?"

Shen Duqing didn't intend to drink at first, but when he saw that Meng Zheng had drunk it, he suddenly felt a little moved, so he handed the cup to Teacher Xu.He took a sip of his beer and immediately frowned.It's bitter and astringent, it's really hard to drink.

Shen Duqing looked around. Apart from beer, there was also rice wine brought by Meng's father on the table.

When Meng Zheng finished drinking the beer in the glass, Shen Duqing quickly poured rice wine for him, and poured himself another glass.Well, the rice wine is still delicious, the alcohol content is not high, and the smell is particularly fragrant, sweet to the mouth.

By the time Dad Meng noticed the two of them, the two children had already had several glasses of rice wine.

"It's broken, it's broken! This rice wine is specially brought to Lao Xu. I heard that Lao Xu can drink, so I added some white wine into it when brewing." Meng's father said that it was broken, but in fact the whole He smiled heartlessly, "I don't feel it when I drink it, and the taste is not spicy, but it has a lot of stamina. Adults can get drunk!"

Sure enough, Shen Duqing's face gradually turned red, and a drunken look appeared on his face.

Meng Zheng still looked sober, but looked at everyone in the room with eyes full of fatherly love, including his own parents.He thought to himself, it was the second anniversary of their rebirth. When they were first reborn, the face towels they used were full of holes. Two years later, they were going to buy a house in the city.

Missed the lottery?Then miss it.

No golden thighs?Then try your best.

Two years have passed, and even he himself has been in the provincial newspaper!

Meng Zheng chuckled like a little drunk who was half-drunk.He looked at his father with loving eyes, then at his mother, and then at his grandma.In fact, the most important change does not lie in the improvement of the family's economic conditions, but in the different spirits of the elders.

In the memory of Meng Zheng before his rebirth, his parents bent over a little bit because of the burden of life.But now, each of them straightened their backs.They are no longer cramped, and there is no trace of sorrow on their faces.

Looking at it, Meng Zheng's eyes suddenly turned red, and all kinds of feelings came out of his heart.

"Hey, why did you start crying? Are you drunk?" Teacher Xu asked.

"No, I'm not crying, I'm not drunk, I'm happy." Meng Zheng said hastily.He is really happy.

--------

On the way home after dinner, Meng Zheng asked Teacher Xu and Father Meng to support Shen Duqing.He himself does not want help.As a steady adult, he was not drunk at all, and he could walk steadily on the road by himself.

Everyone looked at him rather speechlessly.

What a stable adult, mature, reliable, and decent, but with sexy curves.
