Rebirth: A Life Without Regrets
Time flies, and suddenly it's December, the weather is also getting colder.
Changfu, due to its extremely special geographical location, has a beautiful landscape with clear mountains and rivers, pleasant climate, warm winters and cool summers, long sunshine hours, and rarely experiences frost, even in winter there is still a warm sun that makes people feel very comfortable.
As 1985 drew to a close, Leng Bingxue had been in elementary school for over three months. During these three months, due to the previous fight with the army brat, Leng Bingxue's reputation grew even louder. Not only did the school reduce bullying behavior, but also the street thugs kept their distance from the elementary school, fearing that they would accidentally run into Leng Bingxue and get beaten up, not to mention being caught by the police station and punished.
The small black room in the police station is not a pleasant place, the police officers are all dark and sinister, using various methods to torment you, either "Su Qin's back sword" or "flying together", if not, they'll come up with "electric roasted suckling pig"... anyway, they won't stop until they've tormented you enough, and in the end, they'll still ask your family to bring money to bail you out. Where is that kind of money easily earned? The little money you've worked hard for all year isn't even enough to pay.
Since the incident, the Suqi Town Police Station has arranged police patrols near the elementary school, with two police officers on duty from the time students go to school until they are dismissed, under the name of maintaining campus order and protecting student safety, but everyone knows what's going on.
It is said that everyone is equal, but in reality, some people will indeed be superior to ordinary people due to their enjoyment of various privileges. This is incomparable, no matter how society develops or progresses.
However, parents are indeed very satisfied with this. Regardless of the original intention, after all, the safety of children has been guaranteed, unlike before when some hooligans often intercepted and extorted money from children on their way to and from school, and even robbed them openly. Those who refused were beaten up badly. Due to the small amount of money involved, the children did not suffer much injury, so the police station did not file a case. When parents went to confront them, the hooligans became even more arrogant, thinking that they had nothing to fear. Parents felt helpless in this situation.
Now, this situation has naturally improved greatly.
In response to the police station's initiative, everyone was very appreciative, and some parents even went so far as to present a banner of thanks to the police station. The district and township governments also commended their convenient behavior for the people, and the Suqi Police Station became an advanced unit in the annual system evaluation for the first time, which made everyone happy.
In the past three months, there have been several small tests. Leng Bing Xue naturally took first place in the entire grade with an absolute advantage of double hundreds, leaving everyone except Xie Chang Qing and Li Zhi Xiong in awe, exclaiming: "Geniuses are indeed different from ordinary people." Later, as the number of times they were left speechless increased, they gradually became numb, as if it would be abnormal for Leng Bing Xue not to take first place. To the point where when everyone asked each other about the results, they would often ask: "Who took second place this time?" Because the first place was a given, without any dispute, and everyone knew this in their hearts.
The entire Class 1 of Grade 2 was infected with Leng Binghan's abnormal grades, and the learning atmosphere suddenly improved a lot. Everyone rushed to catch up, aiming not to let Leng Binghan fall too far behind. This change made Teacher Li Zhi Xiong overjoyed, even laughing out loud in his sleep.
In such a good situation, there are still people who are unhappy.
The first is that Wen Xin's own little brother Xiao Han is getting more and more formidable, while she herself is falling far behind. No matter how hard she tries, her grades are only hovering around tenth place. Xiao Han doesn't even want to play with her anymore, instead often chatting and laughing with his deskmate Chen Ting. This makes her feel very upset, as if someone had snatched away her beloved doll.
The second person who was not happy was Chen Ting. Before Leng Bing Xue arrived, she had always been the first in class, but now she could only fight for second place forever, because the first place was really too far away. She couldn't understand it at all. Others might not know about it, but as his deskmate, she was very clear that Leng Bing Xue had never seriously listened to classes or done homework, and yet he still managed to get the first place in exams? If it weren't for him being able to easily help her solve some difficult problems, Chen Ting would even suspect that the teacher gave him the answers every time.
The third thing that made him unhappy was the coldness of his life in elementary school, which was both boring and helpless. Every day, he was either organizing this or memorizing that. There was also one thing that had been weighing on his mind, and that was the disaster triggered by the torrential rain in July next year as recorded in his past life memories.
Calculating the time, if this life doesn't have too much of a butterfly effect due to one's own rebirth, then there is only more than half a year left to solve this problem, how can it be solved?
The district is exhausted and out of food, even if Dad is fully aware of it, a clever woman can't cook without rice. Ask Grandpa for help? But how to say it? Grandpa has been very inclined towards Su Qi for more than a year, with various policies and allocations, giving a lot, it's not impossible to ask him again, but how can we always do this? There are still so many places in the city watching.
In such a situation, how can he still have the mind to deal with those little girls' ridiculous thoughts?
Besides, although those little girls are now older than him, his mental age, accumulated from past lives to the present, is already thirty or forty years old; how could he have any thoughts about a **-year-old little girl?
That day, he still didn't notice the warmth behind him as he ran, alone with his head down thinking about things on his way home. Suddenly, he heard a commotion beside his ear, and the students behind him, including many adults, rushed forward in a hurry, quickly surrounding the front, as if something had happened.
Leng Bing Han dislikes watching excitement, always thinking that this is a bad habit of Chinese people since ancient times. Only boring people would go to watch excitement, and it seems that they can only balance their minds by comparing themselves to others who have encountered trouble. As a result, traffic is also blocked, and things are delayed. With that time, it's better to do something for yourself.
But he had no choice, the road home was blocked by everyone and it was impossible to get through, so he could only squeeze past desperately.
Fortunately, everyone knew him and didn't make things difficult for him. They all made way for him as much as possible, so he quickly squeezed inside and saw the situation in the circle.
It's actually very simple, it's just a story about government soldiers catching thieves. Several police officers were pressing two young men to the ground, scolding and cursing as they took out handcuffs, wanting to cuff them behind their backs.
One of the young men was very honest, seemed to have resigned himself to his fate, and didn't resist much, so they were easily handcuffed. The other one, however, resisted with all his might, was pressed down by three policemen, and still kept struggling, shouting: "Let me go, let me see my mom for the last time, let me go!"
His strength was not small, and several police officers were having a hard time trying to handcuff him. At this moment, the police officer who had already handcuffed another person lifted that person up, with two police officers escorting him, while another one, seemingly the leader, walked over and kicked that person's face fiercely, causing blood to suddenly gush out of that person's head, frightening the surrounding students into cries of surprise.
The police officer didn't seem to think so, and cursed: "Zhu Jianjun, you son of a bitch, stop crying here, your mother was already driven to death by you. If you don't behave, I'll beat you to death." Then he scolded the other police officers: "Haven't you eaten? A few big men can't handle one person, did you use up all your energy on women last night?"
The last sentence caused the adults around to burst into laughter, and some men even showed a somewhat lewd expression. The students didn't understand but also followed suit and laughed, which made the police officers feel embarrassed, and they finally managed to handcuff Zhu Jianjun with great effort.
After being handcuffed, Zhu Jianjun seemed to have given up all hope and stopped struggling. He just kept shouting: "Please, I beg of you, let me go back and see my mother one last time. You can do whatever you want with me afterwards, cut me into pieces if you like. Please."
No one paid attention to him, although some people in the crowd sympathized with him, but only in their hearts, without saying anything. At that time, the police were still relatively honest and upright, and had a good reputation among the ordinary people. The police badge on his hat and the police flower on his collar represented the national authority, and everyone believed that the police only arrested bad people.
As they dragged away Zhu Jianjun and another person with blood all over their heads, the crowd of onlookers also gradually dispersed, leaving only Leng Bingxue lost in thought.
Zhu Jianjun is a person who was known in his past life and was quite extraordinary.
Zhu Jianjun lost his father at the age of 6 and was raised by his mother alone. In fact, the Zhu family in Suqiu is still a big family, with five brothers under Zhu De's father. Zhu Deyu, Zhu Jianjun's father, was the eldest son who took good care of his younger brothers, and the relationship between uncles and aunts was very good.
However, since Zhu De's death, his younger brothers rarely came to their house and even occupied the house left by Zhu De for his wife and children, saying that this house was an ancestral property. After Zhu De's death, their elder sister would eventually remarry, and the Zhu family's ancestral property could not be cheapened by outsiders.
Zhu De's wife was a kind-hearted peasant woman who didn't know how to fight back, so she had no choice but to take her young son Zhu Jianjun and move out of the house, setting up a thatched hut on the edge of the field, where she worked hard to raise her son.
Due to economic reasons, Zhu Jianjun dropped out of school after finishing elementary school and returned home to help with household chores and farm work, being very filial and sensible.
After several years, life was getting better and better, but unfortunately, disaster struck again. Due to long-term overwork and poor nutrition, Zhu Jianjun's mother fell seriously ill and could no longer get out of bed. Zhu Jianjun worked tirelessly inside and outside the home without complaint, but he still didn't have enough money to treat his mother's illness.
In order to raise money for his mother's illness, he repeatedly humbled himself and went to beg a few uncles for loans. However, not only did he fail to borrow the money, but he also suffered verbal abuse from his aunts. He endured the scolding with great difficulty, thinking that as long as he could borrow the money and take his mother to see a doctor, even if it meant suffering ten times more humiliation, he would be able to bear it.
But what's even more excessive is that this aunt cursed all the way to the back, still unable to scold Zhu Jianjun away, and actually accused Zhu Jianjun's mother of having an affair with a man, making Zhu DeGui wear a green hat, and Zhu Jianjun was not a child of the Zhu family, but a wild seed.
Such vicious insults finally made Zhu Jianjun's pent-up anger erupt. He could accept any insult to himself, no matter how ugly it was, but such slander and injury to his beloved mother, damaging her innocence, was something he absolutely couldn't tolerate. As he recalled the scene of several uncles ruthlessly occupying their house when he was a child, forcibly driving him and his mother away, he could no longer hold back, rushing forward to severely teach this vicious third aunt a lesson.
It was originally just a dispute between relatives, and Zhu Jianjun didn't take it seriously. Who knew that Zhu San Shu had opened a small shop, was good at communicating with people from all walks of life, and had good relationships with various departments? He also thought he was someone important. Now his wife had been beaten by his nephew, how could he let it go easily? So he took some good cigarettes and wine, found the director of the Central Hospital, sent his wife to the hospital, and after the hospital issued a diagnosis of minor injury, he went to the police station to report the case. The police chief saw that Zhu San Shu was usually quite smooth, and this time he had brought many things, including the hospital's proof, which fully complied with the procedure, so naturally they immediately filed the case and sent people to arrest Zhu Jianjun.
Zhu Jianjun received the news and after entrusting his mother to a good friend, he went into hiding. The police who were trying to catch him were left grasping at thin air.
Who would have thought that today a good friend came in a hurry and said that his mother was seriously ill, already beyond cure, and wanted him to go back and see her for the last time.
Zhu Jianjun was shocked and lost his composure, he didn't even care that the police were arresting him, he rushed home in a hurry, but unexpectedly ran into the police here, not only was he caught red-handed, but also dragged his good friend down with him.
In his previous life, Zhu Jianjun did not see his mother's last face because he was sentenced to two years' imprisonment for intentional injury. The aftermath of his mother was still handled by the neighbors and the government together.
A year and a half later, Zhu Jianjun was released from prison ahead of schedule. The first thing he did was to sit in front of his parents' graves for a whole day, then thanked the neighbors who had helped him and handled his mother's funeral, and left alone, with no one knowing where he went. It wasn't until ten years later that Zhu Jianjun returned to his hometown, driving a small sedan, accompanied by his beautiful wife, and rebuilt his parents' graves. He also hosted a three-day banquet in the town to thank all the villagers except for his uncle's family.
At that time, such behavior seemed very childish and somewhat like a nouveau riche showing off. But everyone had to admit that Zhu Jianjun really made it big. He drove a luxury car that even the town mayor couldn't afford, wore famous brands, and took out stacks of money.
Several years later, Leng Bingxue learned through other channels that after Zhu Jianjun left his hometown, he went to Nanquan to make a living. At that time, Nanquan was developing very rapidly, and there were many opportunities. Zhu Jianjun could endure hardship, was willing to work hard, had been a security guard, worked as a waiter in a restaurant, sold goods on the street, and gradually accumulated wealth. Due to his honest and trustworthy business practices, kind treatment of others, and unique vision, he gradually became wealthy. Later, he boldly mortgaged all his property and invested it in real estate in Tianya Province. As one of the early entrants, he made a huge profit, increasing his assets tenfold. After that, he withdrew from the bubble economy and invested in large supermarkets. Before 2000, his personal assets had already reached 600 million yuan.
His experience can be written into a motivational story of starting from scratch and becoming successful through hard work.
Such a person, with his filial piety and temperament, should be helped out by himself. Moreover, such a figure can create a career from scratch, although there are specific historical reasons that cannot be completely replicated, it can also explain his talent and ability. If he is taken in as his own, can't he let himself start his grand plan faster?
Her mind was racing with cold calculation, her thoughts becoming clearer and more exciting by the minute, completely disregarding Wen Xin who was standing beside her, pouting, making her feel ignored and very unhappy.
