The Era of Hard Work

The sky was overwhelmed by dark clouds, with no stars to be seen, and the air was so stuffy that one could hardly breathe.

Lu Dong was also sitting on the low wall, and found a box of beer cans on the other side. He immediately took out a can and opened it, bumped it against Du Xiaobing, and took a sip with his head up.

Du Xiaobing drank nearly half of it in one breath, as if he wanted to blow the whole can, Lu Dong quickly stopped him.

Drink slowly. Lu Dong pointed to his watch, It's only past seven o'clock.

Du Xiaobing wiped his mouth and looked at the watch on Lu Dong's wrist: Song Na has a couple watch with the same style? Lu Dong, I envy you so much! Why can't I meet a girl as good as Song Na?

Thinking of Song Na, Lu Dong's tone was unconsciously soft: You will definitely meet better ones in the future.

Du Xiaobing shook his head: Am I stupid? Before Lu Dong could answer, he said, We are friends, good brothers, don't talk about those nonsense!

You have persuaded me many times, I can hear it! Du Xiaobing is not heartless: But I think that sincerity is what makes gold and stone.

By the stairs, Song Na quietly followed because of worry, and secretly raised her head to take a look.

Du Xiaobing's words continued: Song Na can warm your rock and make your wood sprout, why can't Ning Xue and I do it? So, I have been working hard and never giving up. Ning Xue can be my girlfriend.

Song Na took a look, listened to a few words, and calmed down. It's better for men to talk to men about this kind of thing, so I better not get involved.

She walked lightly and went downstairs quietly.

Du Xiaobing's words came out like a cannonball: I pursue Ning Xue, and Ning Xue has never let go. I think it is a test, because I am not doing well enough! She said that she will give me an answer when she graduates, that's good! I will wait until she graduates !

Lu Dong didn't speak, knowing that Lao Du had to speak out his full stomach, so that he could have a better time.

This afternoon, Ning Xue asked me to meet, I am very happy. Du Xiaobing laughed at himself: I thought I could finally walk on the road holding hands like you and Song Na, and I could bring Ning Xue over and formally introduce her to you. You know each other.

He said in a low voice, The result? Do you know what I was waiting for? Ha...Ning Xue told me, Du Xiaobing, you are a good person, and you can find better ones in the future. Then, she fell in love with that disgusting man's Santana 2000, leave with someone!

I'm rough! I think he's a good person! No, I'm not a good person, I'm a fool!

Du Xiaobing drank the remaining half can of beer in one go, and smashed the can on the ground.

Lu Dong gave Du Xiaobing another can of beer, then clinked glasses with Du Xiaobing, while thinking about how to comfort Lao Du

In this regard, his understanding is really limited.

Among other things, listening to Lao Du vomit his depression will help.

Du Xiaobing took a sip of beer and said, Ning Xue said that she only treats me as an older brother, and will treat me as a brother and sister in the future...

Hearing this, Lu Dong almost choked on his lungs with a sip of beer, and asked, Do you want your godbrother to take care of your godsister?

The old Du sitting here is no longer the Du Xiaobing who didn't have much social experience last year. Lu Dong's reminder brought a wry smile on his face: When I heard it at the time, I felt something was wrong.

Having said that, Lu Dong was straightforward: Old Du, have you never told Ning Xue about your family's situation in detail?

Du Xiaobing was surprised at first: I'm chasing her, what are you talking about my family?

Lu Dong asked again: Where is your competitor?

Du Xiaobing thought about it carefully: What's the matter with Ning Xue, he always picks up the car, and often brags...

Lu Dong held up the soda can to him, and the two drank together.

While drinking beer, Du Xiaobing was thinking, and the past scenes flashed in his mind like a movie playback.

People always have to suffer a lot of beatings before they can see something clearly and gradually become mature.

Du Xiaobing was neither stupid nor stupid, but was dazzled by the beauty of the goddess.

Lu Dong simply said: Old Du, it's not easy to be a good brother. Is it the most basic thing to be on call?

A few days ago, Du Xiaobing would never listen to these words,

Today's thunderbolt from the blue sky made Du Xiaobing more or less sober.

Brother? Sister? Lao Du took a sip of beer, feeling bitter like never before: If you can't be a boyfriend and girlfriend, become a brother and sister?

Lu Dongxin said, this Ning Xue is really not ordinary, you have chosen another man, and you still don't let Lao Du go, it is obvious that you will continue to squeeze Lao Du with the way of brother and sister.

The elder brother buys things for the younger sister and provides various conveniences, should he?

Du Xiaobing took another sip of beer, the more he drank, the clearer his head became: Lu Dong, am I stupid?

Lu Dong also took a sip of beer: Before the prince finds the princess, he will always meet many witches.

That's reasonable. Du Xiaobing first agreed, and then retorted: No! Why did you meet Song Na when you first fell in love?

Lu Dong smiled: I'm lucky.

Du Xiaobing snorted coldly: Stupid people have stupid luck.

Lu Dong patted him on the shoulder: Is it much better now? Is it not so uncomfortable?

Du Xiaobing sighed: How much better.

Lu Dong was thinking about it just now, and held it back for a long time, and finally choked out a few words: Old Du, let's face the reality! Since Ning Xue didn't choose you, then say goodbye to her completely, and put an end to the past. Let’s start again! We can’t let it go just because she’s gone, don’t you still have our good friends? You can’t just throw away a whole forest just because of Ning Xue…”

Du Xiaobing said: If Song Na listens to what you say about trees and forests, she will definitely kick you!

Lu Dong subconsciously glanced at the stairs, and said, This is a metaphor! He added, Old Du, you have friends and a career, and it is her loss to give up on you!

Du Xiaobing drank the remaining beer in the can and said, It's just a little uncomfortable, I'm not reconciled.

Lu Dong said: I'll give you an idea. Undoubtedly, what he said was a bad idea: Find an opportunity, tell someone about our store's revenue and your family's situation, I promise...

Ning Xue didn't understand the situation of Lao Du's family at all.

Don't! Du Xiaobing shook his head straight: It's easy to talk and let it go, let me keep the last good thoughts.

Lu Dong looked up at the dark sky: Old Du, once you figure it out, don't be stupid again.

Du Xiaobing stood up, maybe it was because of today's blow that cleared his head, maybe he saw Ning Xue's true purpose, or maybe it was a lesson that a man must learn to mature, he vowed: I will entangle Ning Xue again. I don't know, the sky is thundering!

Seeing that Lao Du seemed to have really come out, Lu Dong was also happy for him.

Suddenly, a bright light shone in the sky.

Click——

The thunder seemed to explode above the head, making people's ears and heads buzzing.

Lu Dong looked at Du Xiaobing, and Du Xiaobing looked at Lu Dong.

bang——

There was another thunder.

Lu Dongxin said, is this a thunderstorm?

Standing on the roof of a building during a thunderstorm, wouldn't it be a human-shaped lightning rod?

Lu Dong picked up the beer box and shouted, Let's go, Old Du!

Du Xiaobing looked up at the sky.

Lu Dong quickly slapped him: Be careful, it's really a thunderbolt!

Du Xiaobing hurriedly followed him downstairs, explaining as he walked: I'm telling the truth, God is too ungrateful...

Before he could finish his sentence, the explosion sounded again.

Du Xiaobing was helpless: Lu Dong, you have to trust me!

Lu Dong turned around and said, I believe you, can't you? Let's go quickly, don't call me Thunder.

Du Xiaobing followed behind Lu Dong and said, Lightning strike? You still don't believe me.

As soon as the two of them got down the fire escape stairs, pea-sized raindrops slammed down, and the raindrops soon turned into rain lines. When they entered Burger King through the back door, it was raining heavily at Quannan at night.

The Qingzhao area, which has been dry for nearly half a year, finally ushered in the heaviest rain since 1999.

Thunder, rain, ringing non-stop.

Du Xiaobing was still saying to Lu Dong: Thunderstorms have nothing to do with me, God can control the sky and the earth.

I understand! I understand! Lu Dong said solemnly: It's just that some masters are going through the catastrophe, and it has nothing to do with you, Old Du.

It rained heavily this time, and the rainy season in the Taito region has arrived.

Thinking of the reinforced embankment, Lu Dong is not worried about the Qingzhao River flooding. Even if there is another flood, Lujia Village can hold on.

There are few people repairing the embankment in the upper reaches.

There is no way, there are not many villages that can afford the maintenance cost.

Some villages are far richer than Lujia Village, but they are not as popular as Lujia Village.

There is no unified plan above, and it is useless for ordinary people to think of a way. Lu Dong is not a saint, and the first thing he thinks about is Lujia Village.

Song Na was helping at the cash register, while Lu Dong and Du Xiaobing moved a stool and sat by the back door of the kitchen to watch the rain outside.

It has to be said that the quality of the various projects of Xuefu Wenyuan is good. It rained heavily for nearly half an hour, and there is basically no water in the community.

Lu Dong thought of the neighborhood where he lived, it rained heavily and flooded, and it rained for a little longer, and the outer walls were still cloudy.

As for the underground garage, don't mention it, it's a water curtain hole when it rains.

It is said that with the development of technology in the times, the quality of housing should get better and better.

But in many houses he has seen, the quality of new houses is generally not as good as that of old houses.

After nearly an hour of heavy rain, it finally became lighter. Du Xiaobing went back to the Institute of Physical Education, ready to take a nap to relieve his worries.

Song Na came over after a while and asked, Is Lao Du okay?

Lu Dong said, It's all right.

Song Na looked at the rain that was still falling outside, and said, Call home later, live in the community at night, don't go back. It just rained heavily, and the bridge hole under the expressway probably has a lot of water. deep.

Lu Dong thought for a while and said, That's fine, the broken bridge will be flooded when it rains.

After getting off work in the evening, Lu Dong first looked for an umbrella to send Song Na back to school, and then went back to the Wenyuan of the Xuefu from the north gate. Living in this place is better than wading into the bridge hole.

If one is not done well, the motorcycle will be flooded and stalled, and then we will have to drive the eleventh road.

In the few days before the summer vacation, Lu Dong specially observed Du Xiaobing. Anyway, from the surface, it seemed that Lao Du was not greatly affected.

Burger restaurants and mala tang restaurants have been booming until the summer vacation, before falling back.
