【Double Xun】Know what is like

The interaction between people is all about the luck of the situation. When luck is good, everything is peaceful, and everyone lives in their own world. When luck is bad, they have to get together in panic.

This is the case with Xun You and Xun Yu.

The people on the farm were divided into several groups, the group who came first were the seniors, and those who had just arrived, such as their eighth team, were the newcomers.Although they are all scholars, those who came first have already been stained with the impetuousness of collectivism, and those who came later are still a little unfamiliar.Therefore, the seniors love to get together to make jokes about the newcomers. There are meat and vegetables, elegant and vulgar, which is the only fun in the boring time.But these jokes are rarely made on Xun Yu, probably because of his alienated and friendly smile that makes others restrained.

As Xun Yu's roommate, Xun You also gained some fame, so they often hid aside and chatted, trying to keep a distance from people outside the eighth team.

During this time, the two got to know each other a lot.

Xun You's grandparents and fathers were all businessmen. He became popular in the early days. After a few years of good life, he was sent to the United States to study. His wife met in the United States.The two have similar family backgrounds, and they soon agreed to get married. Now they have two children, the eldest is 12 years old, and the youngest is only five years old.

Compared with Xun You, Xun Yu's ancestors are much more glorious. He once had an ancestor who was in power, so his descendants never withered.In the generation of Xun Yu's great-grandfather, there were still people who were officials in the court. Later, they moved to Kunming and asked General Cai to take care of them to avoid the limelight.Xun Yu studied at a temporary university in Kunming. For some reason, he did not return to Beijing with the army, nor did he get married, but his family found a local teaching position for him.

All in all, without this farce, the two of them would never meet in this life anyway.

It has been more than two months since Xun You spied Captain Zhao’s misbehavior last time. During these two months, he stayed with Xun Yu every day to complete the task. .The days in early winter are really short, and it gets dark to the bones after four o'clock in the afternoon, and they are the only ones working on the bare land.Xun You rushed to him to help him level the soil, then picked up the two people's hoes and said, "Let's go, it's finally the last day."

After the winter, the weather has become more and more bad, and several frail old people have fallen ill. The farm is afraid that something bigger will happen, so it decides to resume work in the spring of next year.

"Thank you for your hard work..." Xun Yu took his hoe and said to him.

At the end of every day, he would say this sentence to Xun You.Xun Yu was never willing to bother others before, but he was indeed ill.Tasks are accumulative. If you can’t finish today, leave it until the next day. If things go on like this, let alone leave the farm with positive performance, he may even die here for life.After a fierce ideological struggle, he decided to accept Xun You's help and give Xun You part of his meals.

The two of them silently maintained a relationship of mutual help and mutual assistance, and there was little communication other than that.When many people are working together, they seldom talk, and when they are resting, pickpockets and strong men gag, they also seldom talk, but whenever the crowd is scattered, only the two of them are together, Xun Yu always wants to have a few words with him talk.

Those who have never been to the grassy beach in the northwest can hardly imagine her desolation and magnificence. The twilight in late autumn there is really exactly the same as that written in the poem. Falling beside them all day long.Sometimes Xun Yu ran a few steps towards it, and he would feel that he and Xun You were forced to become resolute Kuafu, always chasing the sun, but never knowing what the end of the sunset is.There are other communes and villages around the farm. Whenever they do nothing in the barren sunset, there will always be wisps of cooking smoke rising from the village, glowing with a warm and drunken color.

That day when they were walking back to the mountain at sunset, Xun Yu suddenly said in a low voice: "Although it is hard work, there are also moments of joy."

This is not very appropriate, because it is an extra burden for Xun You to stay and work for him, Xun You thought about it and then hurriedly said: "I didn't mean that, I just said..."

"I also feel very happy," Xun You smiled and took his words: "Really, sometimes it is really quiet and scary, but sometimes when you think about it, it might be a kind of tempering. When you just went to record your work points, you He seemed to want to talk to me, but he didn't say anything later, why?"

"It's just a little nonsense."

Xun You pushed a piece of dead grass from his head for him, still smiling like that: "I have already fallen into such a situation, everything that doesn't matter is a big deal, just tell me, I'll listen."

When life is flattened, apart from life and death, everything is a big deal, that's what Xun You thought at that moment.

"I just want to tell you that the village over there seems to be grilling fish." Xun Yu lowered his head embarrassedly: "I can smell the aroma of grilled fish."

An inexplicable and quiet happiness slowly lingered between the two of them, and Xun You felt very happy, as if he could smell the burnt aroma of grilled fish in the air.In addition, for the first time, he found that Xun Yu was fresh and lovely, more lively and lovely than what he could see with his eyes, and even more vivid and lovely than what he had quietly figured out in his heart in the past.

After returning to the dormitory that night, Professor Feng came to inform them that the packages sent by their families had arrived and they had to go to Captain Zhao's office to pick them up.Xun You put down the coarse-grain steamed bun and wiped his mouth, and asked Xun Yu if he would go, Xun Yu shook his head: "No one will send me anything, you go."

The family members' packages are life-saving straws for the farm owners, and most of them are food and clothing, because money and food stamps are not needed on the farm.Xun You's wife sent him an unusually large package, which contained a total of seven or eight winter coats and sweaters, several packages of dry fried noodles, and scattered milk powder and biscuits.When opening the coat, a letter fell out. Xun You sat beside the bed with the letter, thinking about it for a long time but did not open it.

The strong man and the pickpocket knew that he had brought a big package, so they all ran to want something to eat. They sat on Xun Yu's bed, thinking about waiting for him to finish reading the letter before reaching out.Xun You made up his mind and finally tore open the letter. Inside were two separate pieces of paper, one was letter paper, and the other was the divorce document approved by the unit.Xun Yousong hung his hands loosely, and the two pieces of paper were blown to the ground by the wind that came through the crack of the door.

The three quickly picked up the letter and read it. After reading it, the pickpocket and the strong man left without saying a word. Xun Yu folded the letter, put it back in the envelope, and handed it back to him.Xun You only felt a bad breath in his chest, and the anger and fear of an uncertain future left him speechless.Standing beside him, Xun Yu bent down and asked, "Are you okay?"

Xun You opened his eyes and wept. He didn't eat a few mouthfuls of his dinner. The ups and downs this time and again caused hazy black shadows to appear in front of his eyes.Xun Yu stroked his hair and side face, then simply squatted down and stuffed the steamed bun into his hand: "It will be much better to eat something."

Tears splashed down on the muddy ground splashed with dust and stars, and then dizzy into small mudflats.Xun You slowly broke the steamed bun in half, and then slowly stuffed it into his mouth, filling his mouth to the brim.
