Gradually, Gu Yizhen couldn't see ye Xiaoan's back and stopped a taxi on the street. The driver put out his head and smiled with a simple and honest smile. A short layer of stubble appeared on his dark skin chin.
"Where are you going, sir?" the driver opened the front passenger's door for him. Gu Yizhen responded politely and sat in the back seat.
"Go to Gu's group." Gu Yizhen frowned, rolled the window and breathed the air outside. The smell of bad cigarettes filled the car, choking Gu Yizhen with a headache.
"OK." the driver happily agreed. He took out his mobile phone and called in a dialect Gu Yizhen couldn't understand. He vaguely heard that it was his wife who contacted him. Both of them spoke their hometown dialect, which made Gu Yizhen very big.
Gu Yizhen always drives by himself when he goes out, or there is a specially assigned person to pick him up. He has never taken a taxi by himself. As a famous young man in H City, how can he be confused with ordinary people? He has never experienced the market life of small people.
But since he met Ye Xiaoan, Gu Yizhen has also seen the roadside stalls he has never eaten, taxis he has never taken and tube buildings he has never lived in. All these gave him the feeling of being dirty, messy and poor. He can't believe that a simple woman like Ye Xiaoan survived in such a dilapidated environment.
H city is a city with highly developed handicraft industry. The original large factories were moved to the surrounding areas decades ago. Although the air is not fresh, it is much better than that in a taxi.
At the same time, H city is also a city with serious polarization between the rich and the poor. The rich are very rich and the poor are very poor, such as Gu Yizhen and Su Han. There are people from two worlds living in this city, but the same thing is that they are all flesh and blood people. Big people have big people's troubles, and small people also have little people's happiness.
This has always been the case around the world. Where there is survival, there is death, and where there is peace, there is war. Everything has two sides. Whether it is good or bad, we can only accept it when we are unable to change it.
But Gu Yizhen knows that life is dead and people are alive. We can change and create with our own hands. For example, it is never the wisest choice to sit and wait for death, such as ye Xiaoan and Su Han.
Coincidentally, Gu Yizhen's mobile phone rang at this time. It was Luo Hongyu who called and explained the matter in a few words. In short, he wanted him to go home. This is not what Luo Hongyu usually looks like. Something must have happened.
Gu Yizhen's first reaction was that there was something wrong with the old man's body. Gu Shaohua was already in poor health. He was old and had just finished the operation. This successive blow could not be accepted by anyone.
Gu Yizhen originally wanted to go back to the company and severely suppressed Xiao. Now he can only put his business away and go home as soon as possible. Since Gu Shaohua came back from the gate of hell, his family is the most important for Gu Yizhen. Xiao has a lot of opportunities in the future.
"Ah Zhen, no matter where you are, come back right now." Luo Hongyu's language is urgent and sounds very nervous. Gu Yizhen feels bad, like something big has happened.
"OK, mom, I'll be right back." Gu Yizhen hung up the phone. He wanted to go back to the Imperial Hotel and pick up the car directly, but that would waste a lot of time. Just think about it.
"Master, don't go to Gu Shi, go to No. 88 Jinjiang road." Gu Yizhen leaned forward and said to the driver.
"Sir, take a turn ahead and you'll be there soon. If you want to go to Jinjiang Road, you'll have to go back." the taxi master looks very embarrassed. After all, it's so hot that no one wants to toss about.
"Gujinjiang Road, you don't have to worry about the price. Just open your mouth. Please drive faster, I'm in a hurry." Gu Yi's face was expressionless and his tone was indisputable.
"OK." the driver happily agreed, turned around at the nearest intersection, stepped on the accelerator, "whoosh" ran out and sped on the road as fast as possible.
The car overtakes left and right on the road, the tail swings back and forth, and the scenery on both sides is blurred. Gu Yizhen firmly remembers the seat belt. The master looks very old. Unexpectedly, he is still so careless. With some driving skills, Gu Yizhen's heart beats in the car.
Gu Yizhen said: "master, you can be a little slower. I'm in a hurry, but safety first, you don't have to worry." Gu Yizhen stared at the road ahead, for fear that the car with short eyes would rush out.
"Hey, sir, don't worry. I've been in this business for more than ten years. It's all right. To tell you the truth, I've driven all kinds of cars. I used to drive oil tanks in G City, which is a flammable and explosive car. Later, because the gold owner ran away and didn't give me his salary, I changed my business and became a taxi driver.
Where is my speed? I watched the car race in Wulong county last year. Ouch, it was so fast that I couldn't see a shadow when I stepped on the accelerator. I can't compare with others. They are professional. But you can rest assured that there will be no problem with my driving skills.
It's not easy to do anything in this world. People eat people. It's not easy for us men to have wives and children to support at home. There are many people like me. I've worked hard to earn 180 yuan more. Set up a stall to buy something, worry about urban management, open a taxi, and have to hide from the traffic police. I can't help it. I have too much burden on my shoulders. "
Gu Yizhen didn't speak. The man's words attracted his attention. He had never thought about these problems before. He thought everyone was the same. Although life was not so good, it wasn't so bad. It turned out that there were really some people in the world who were living a difficult life.
Shifu looked at Gu Yizhen through the rear-view mirror. The man dressed up very well and didn't want to be an ordinary person. Seeing that Gu Yizhen didn't speak, he said, "but I'm still good. I've seen many people worse than me. I've eaten last meal but haven't had next meal. I'm covered with patches and have no family. Alas, it's also pathetic!
You look like a rich man. Hello, rich man. Money is a good thing. Who doesn't fight for money every day? What can't you buy when you have money? Power and status. You don't have to worry about making a living all day.
However, too much money is not a good thing. Rich people also have troubles, and their brothers are clear about accounting! There are too many examples of the opposite purpose of money! Money and no money can't do. In short, living is a sin for this person, and dying? And reluctant. This is life! Do you think so? "
Gu Yizhen smiled awkwardly and didn't speak. Gu Yizhen didn't pretend to be cold. He just didn't know how to go on. After all, he didn't experience such a life. Without practice, he had no right to speak.
The driver made seven turns and eight turns. He took a Road Gu Yizhen had never known. For a moment, Gu Yizhen suspected that he was robbed, but he did save a lot of time all the way down.
"Sir, it's No. 88 ahead. Counting the people who went to Gushi before, it's 83 yuan in total. Wipe a change and charge you 80. This area is a villa area. If you don't let taxis in, you'll be wronged. You have to go by yourself." the driver smiled and scratched his head.
In other words, the driver's efficiency is really high. It usually takes more than 40 minutes. He arrived in less than half an hour. Speaking Kung Fu, the front is the ancient house.
"OK." Gu Yizhen turned out his wallet, took out a 100 yuan bill and handed it to him. He took his mobile phone and got out of the car. He lightly threw down a sentence: "don't look for it."
Gu Yizhen's temperament is really similar to Gu Yining. He even does things in the same way. He really regards money as dirt. However, the ancient family does have that capital. There is more than one luxury car with millions of dollars. Is there still a taxi fee of 100 yuan?
After getting out of the car, Gu Yizhen still had to walk for a while to get home. He deliberately didn't say the specific address of the Gu family mansion, but only said a general location, in order to be afraid that some people had ulterior motives and made a temporary intention. This is what the upper class needs to worry about. There are many good people and many bad people in this world.
As soon as Gu Yizhen got to the door, he saw housekeeper Li pacing back and forth at the door. His expression was very dignified. When he stepped into the ancient house, the yard was deserted. Where did the usually busy people go? Gu Yizhen had a bad hunch and hurried in.
"Young master, you're back. Both the master and the lady are dying of anxiety." housekeeper Li greeted him, patted his thigh and made a hurried gesture in front of Gu Yizhen.
"Uncle Li, don't worry. What's the matter? Take your time. Is it my father's illness again?" Gu Yizhen held housekeeper Li and walked in as they said.
"Oh, this time it's not the master, it's the lady. When the lady came home, she shut herself in the room and refused to come out. Just now, the lady saw her take a lot of medicine in. She couldn't stop it. The master and lady were still persuading. They were all worried to death." housekeeper Li was so worried that tears rolled in her eyes.
After hearing what housekeeper Li said, Gu Yizhen roughly understood what had happened: "it's nonsense. This girl is too much. Are my father and my mother in there? Uncle Li, don't worry. Go and be busy. It's okay."
Gu Yizhen strides straight to the second floor. Gu Shaohua and Luo Hongyu are waiting at the door of Gu Yining's room. Zhang's mother is also there. The door is closed. No matter how Gu Shaohua calls Gu Yining, she refuses to open the door.
"Dad, mom, how could this happen?" Gu Yi took away Zhang's mother and asked breathlessly.
"Ah Zhen, you've come back. Please persuade your sister. What can I do?" Luo Hongyu leaned against Gu Shaohua, and his tears kept flowing. Gu Yizhen looked at Gu Shaohua, and the old man was sweating.
"Ning Ning, Ning Ning, are you inside? Ning Ning? Gu Yining! Did you hear me? I'm the big brother!" Gu Yizhen kept knocking on Gu Yining's door, and there was no response.
"Ning Ning, I know you're inside. What are you doing? You open the door and your parents are outside the door. Let's say something face to face. Don't be the same. Listen to your brother!"
Gu Yizhen hurried back to comfort Luo Hongyu and Gu Shaohua: "Dad, mom, what's going on? Isn't it still good when he came back from Dihao? Why did it suddenly become like this?"
"I don't know what's going on. The girl was fine when she was in the car. It was like this as soon as she got home. Your mother and I ignored her and locked ourselves in the house when we came back. Gu Shaohua covered his chest and gasped heavily.
