It is difficult to change what you have brought from your bones. Although Huang Mei and Chen Kun were a lot more polite along the way, the disdain seeping from their bones is still faintly visible. Lu Shanmin didn't think there was anything wrong. He himself was a villager in the mountains and a migrant worker who had never seen the world, and the other party was a college student who was favored by heaven. These were all facts and there was nothing to argue with.
Zhang Li thanked Lu Shanmin from the bottom of her heart. In fact, she didn’t feel any different from Lu Shanmin in her heart. Except for the diploma in her bag, they were both single and had nothing. Enter the East China Sea. Later, when I arrived in the East China Sea, I was in a foreign land and everyone was a fellow villager, which gave me a sense of intimacy. From the previous chat, she already knew that Lu Shanmin, like the three of her, was leaving his hometown for the East China Sea for the first time.
"Mountain people, what are your plans to go to the East China Sea?"
Lu Shanmin shook his head. He had no idea where the East China Sea was or what kind of place it was. "I have no plans yet."
Chen Kun smiled and said, "I said you are really bold. You come out of the mountains and you don't know anything yet you dare to go to the East China Sea alone."
Lu Shanmin looked at the scenery passing by quickly outside the window and said calmly, "I don't know anything, so I don't dare to make any plans."
Zhang Li asked worriedly, "Shanmin, are you in the East China Sea?" Don’t you know any relatives or friends?”
Lu Shanmin shook his head, “No.”
Zhang Li frowned slightly. What kind of place was the East China Sea? No one was traveling together, she didn’t have any relatives or friends in the East China Sea, and she had never been out of the mountains. She didn’t understand how Lu Shanmin’s family could be so relieved. Let him out.
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Li said to Lu Shanmin, "Shanmin, Chen Kun has a cousin who has worked in Donghai for several years. We asked her to rent a house in Donghai. If you don't mind, you can first Live with us."
Huang Mei rolled her eyes, looked at Chen Kun and said with a smile, "I will share a room with Zhang Li, and you will share a room with the mountain people."
Chen Kun frowned slightly, feeling a little reluctant, but after all, someone had just found the lost wallet for the three of them, and he was too embarrassed to refuse directly. Considering that the rent in Donghai is so expensive, it wouldn't be a bad thing to have one more person to share the rent. Then he smiled and said to Lu Shanmin, "The East China Sea is not like the countryside. If you are unfamiliar with the place, you will encounter a lot of troubles. You can live with us for the time being, and we can take care of each other."
Lu Shanmin did not refuse. When he knew nothing about the way forward, it was better to have someone with him than to be alone. When hunting in the mountains in the past, villagers would not go alone into unfamiliar mountains and would often invite people who were familiar with the environment to go with them.
It was Chen Kun and the other three who talked along the way. Except for Zhang Li who occasionally asked Lu Shanmin something, Lu Shanmin was more of a listener. It's not that he doesn't want to talk to them, it's just that Lu Shanmin can't get a word in. Lu Shanmin really doesn't understand what they're saying.
The train traveled for two days and twoAt night, we finally arrived at the East China Sea. A group of four people walked out of the train station. Lu Shanmin was shocked. There were rows of high-rise buildings. A huge LCD screen hung on the outer wall of the building. It was many times bigger than the movie screen in the village. Various advertisements on the screen were colorful and overwhelming. The roads were also larger than those in the town. The road was four or five times wider, and cars of various styles and colors were flowing continuously. I had only seen this scene in movies shown in the village before, but seeing it with my own eyes now, I was so shocked that I couldn't help but hold my breath.
Not only Lu Shanmin, but also Zhang Li and the other three were stunned on the spot. The three of them had already been fully prepared for the prosperity of the East China Sea, but when they were alone in it, they still felt that they had not anticipated enough. Compared with the East China Sea, the city where they went to college before could only be regarded as a small county town at best. Chen Kun's blood boiled and he shouted "I'm coming to the East China Sea", while Huang Mei stared closely at the women wearing fashionable clothes and carrying famous brand bags, with a look of envy on her face. After Zhang Li was shocked, a trace of sadness appeared on her face. Does such a prosperous city really have its own place?
With different moods, the four of them got into a taxi, and Chen Kun reported an address to the driver in Mandarin.
"Is this your first time in Donghai?" the taxi driver asked in half-baked Mandarin.
"Yes, master, the East China Sea is so beautiful," Huang Mei said with excitement.
The taxi driver underestimated the country bumpkin in Donghai dialect.
Although Lu Shanmin couldn't understand what he said, his expression and tone were exactly the same as Chen Kun's treatment of him when he first got on the train. For the first time, Lu Shanmin felt that even the proud college students would sometimes be looked down upon.
Chen Kun was restless with excitement. He chattered non-stop along the way and kept pointing his hand out the window. "Did you see it? Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Hummer. Look, that's the Range Rover 50t Peak Genesis Edition. Shao." It’s two to three million. This is my favorite. ”
Lu Shanmin clicked his tongue. For a mountain villager, it’s not enough. Never heard of so much money. When I was in the village, if anyone had a savings of 10,000 yuan, they were probably very rich. It costs millions to buy a car, so how rich you are.
Chen Kun and Huang Mei couldn't stop chatting. They were so excited that they began to imagine the beautiful life in Donghai in the future, as if those luxury cars and high-rise buildings belonged to their homes.
The taxi driver curled his lips. He had seen too many outsiders like this over the years. They were ambitious at the beginning, but in the end, except for a very few who could get ahead, most of them lived worse than dogs.
"We're here," the taxi driver said impatiently, interrupting Chen Kun and Huang Mei's beautiful thoughts.
When it was time to check out, everyone took a breath.
"Eighty yuan, how long have we been gone? Aren't you cheating me?" Chen Kun said angrily.
The taxi driver glanced at Chen Kun disdainfully, "This is the East China Sea, not your hometown's countryside.”
Although Chen Kun is a college student, his hometown is also from the countryside. He usually hates people saying that he is from the countryside at school. Just when he was about to get angry, Zhang Li grabbed Chen Kun and handed the money to the taxi. Driver.
Chen Kun stamped his feet in anger and yelled at the taxi driver, "One day, I will make you kneel on the ground and look up to me. ”
Lu Shanmin was not very angry. Not only was he a rural person, but he was also a mountain person that even rural people looked down upon. This was an indisputable fact, and he didn’t think it was that embarrassing. He just thought a little bit. I don’t understand, Confucius said that the world is the same as the Great Dao. How can the people in the city not even read the Analects?
It is something that is brought from the heart. It's hard to change. Although Huang Mei and Chen Kun were a lot more polite along the way, the disdain seeping from their bones was still faintly visible. Lu Shanmin didn't feel anything was wrong. He was a mountain villager and a farmer who had never seen the world. Work, and the other party is a proud college student. This is a fact. There is nothing to argue with.
Zhang Li thanked Lu Shanmin from the bottom of her heart. In fact, she didn't feel it in her heart. What's the difference between them and Lu Shanmin? Except for the diploma in their bag, they all went to the East China Sea alone with nothing. When they arrived in the East China Sea, they were in a foreign land and everyone was a fellow villager, which gave them a sense of intimacy from the previous chat. , she already knew that Lu Shanmin, like the three of them, was leaving his hometown for the East China Sea for the first time.
"Shanmin, what are your plans for going to the East China Sea?"
Lu Shanmin shook his head. , I don’t know where the East China Sea is or what kind of place it is. “There is no plan yet. "
Chen Kun smiled and said, "I said you are really bold. You come out of the mountains and dare to go to the East China Sea alone without knowing anything. "
Lu Shanmin looked at the scenery passing by quickly outside the window and said calmly, "I don't know anything, so I don't dare to make any plans." "
Zhang Li asked worriedly, "Shanmin, don't you have any relatives or friends you know in the East China Sea?"
Lu Shanmin shook his head, "No."
Zhang Li frowned slightly. What kind of place was the East China Sea? No one was traveling together, she didn’t have any relatives or friends in the East China Sea, and she had never been out of the mountains. She didn’t understand why Lu Shanmin’s family was so relieved to let him go. Come out.
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Li said to Lu Shanmin, "Shanmin, Chen Kun has a cousin who has worked in Donghai for several years. We asked her to rent a house in Donghai. If you don't mind, You can live with us first.
Huang Mei rolled her eyes, looked at Chen Kun and said with a smile, "Zhang Li and I live in a room, and you live in a room with the mountain people." ”
Chen Kun frowned slightly, feeling a little reluctant, but after all, they had just found the lost wallets for the three of them, and he was too embarrassed to refuse directly. Thinking that the rent in Donghai is so expensive, one more person Sharing the rent is not a bad thing. He then smiled and said to Lu Shanmin, "Don't compare with me in the East China Sea."In the countryside, if you are not familiar with the place, you will encounter a lot of troubles. You can live with us temporarily and take care of each other."
Lu Shanmin did not refuse. Under certain circumstances, it is better to have someone with you than to go alone. In the past, when hunting in the mountains, villagers would not venture into unfamiliar mountains alone, and would often invite people who were familiar with the environment to go with them.
Chen Kun and the other three were talking on the way. Except for Zhang Li who occasionally asked Lu Shanmin something, Lu Shanmin was more of a listener. It wasn't that he didn't want to talk to them, but it was because Lu Shanmin couldn't get in the conversation. Lu Shanmin really didn't understand.
The train traveled for two days and two nights, and finally arrived at Donghai. When the group of four walked out of the train station, Lu Shanmin was shocked. There were rows of high-rise buildings with huge LCD screens hanging on the outer walls. It’s countless times bigger than the screen used to show movies in the village, and the various advertisements on the screen are colorful and overwhelming; the road is also four or five times wider than the roads in the town, and cars of various styles and colors are flowing continuously. This kind of scene used to be only seen in the village. I had seen it in the movie and saw it with my own eyes.
Not only Lu Shanmin, but also Zhang Li and the others were stunned on the spot. The three of them had already had a full understanding of the prosperity of the East China Sea. Mentally prepared, but when he was alone in it, he still felt that his prediction was not enough. Compared with Donghai, the city where he went to college could only be regarded as a small county town at best. Chen Kun's blood boiled and he shouted "I'm coming to Donghai," while Huang Mei watched closely. Looking at the women wearing fashionable clothes and carrying designer bags, their faces were filled with envy. After Zhang Li was shocked, a trace of sadness appeared on her face. Does such a prosperous city really have its own place?
With different moods, the four of them got into a taxi, and Chen Kun reported an address to the driver in Mandarin.
"This is your first time in Donghai. "The taxi driver asked in half-baked Mandarin.
"Yes, Master, Donghai is so beautiful," Huang Mei said slightly excitedly.
The taxi driver underestimated in Donghai dialect Called a country bumpkin.
Although Lu Shanmin didn't understand what he said, his expression and tone were exactly the same as when Chen Kun had just gotten on the train. Lu Shanmin felt for the first time. Even proud college students will sometimes be looked down upon.
Chen Kun was so excited that he chattered non-stop, pointing his hand out the window, "See, Mercedes, BMW, and Hummer, look." , that is the Range Rover 50t Peak Genesis Edition, which costs at least two to three million. This is my true love. Wow, there's also a Lamborghini. ”
Lu Shanmin clicked his tongue, two to three million. For a mountain villager, he had never heard of such a large amount of money. When he was in the village, who would have had ten thousand yuan? If you have a deposit, you are probably a very wealthy person. If you want to buy a car, you must be rich.
Chen Kun and Huang Mei couldn't stop talking, they were so excited. Start thinking aboutAfterwards, they lived a good life in Donghai, as if those luxury cars and high-rise buildings belonged to their family.
The taxi driver curled his lips. He had seen too many outsiders like this over the years. They were ambitious at the beginning, but in the end, except for a very few who could get ahead, most of them lived worse than dogs.

The taxi driver glanced at Chen Kun disdainfully, "This is the East China Sea, not your hometown in the countryside."
Although Chen Kun is a college student, he is also from a rural area in his hometown. He usually goes to school What he hates most is that he is from the countryside. Just as he was about to get angry, Zhang Li grabbed Chen Kun and handed the money to the taxi driver.
Chen Kun was so angry that he stamped his feet and yelled at the taxi driver, "One day, I will make you kneel on the ground and look up at me."
Lu Shanmin was not very angry. I am not only a rural person, but also a mountain person that even rural people look down on. This is an indisputable fact, and I don't feel that it is embarrassing. I just don’t understand. Confucius said that the journey of the great road is the same as the world is for the common good. How can people in the city not even read the Analects of Confucius? How can they not even understand the principle that all people are created equal?
