"The meal is ready, come over and eat." Xiang Wan prepared the meal.

Su Xing went out of the house and went to the kitchen. There were five or six dishes on the stove.

"It's so rich and delicious. Your cooking skills are good." Su Xing brought two plates of food and put them on the dining table.

"I wasn't very good at cooking at home. I learned it later when I went to university." Xiang Wan also came out with two plates of food, "You sit down and I'll do it."

Su Xing took a can of beer from the refrigerator and another bottle of drink.

Xiang Wan had already brought out all the food and handed the chopsticks to Su Xing: "Have a taste and see how this braised pork is? It seems like there is a little too much sugar and not much salt."

"Why do you need to put so much salt in braised pork? There should be a little more sugar in braised pork." Su Xing picked up a piece of leaner braised pork and took a bite, "Well, it's very good."

"Just eat if you like." Xiang Wan smiled and nodded, "Do you drink beer?"

"Of course you have to drink some beer to celebrate such a sumptuous meal." Su Xing opened the beer, "If you have drinks, drink them yourself. I won't open them for you."

"Can you pour me some beer? I also want to have a taste." Xiang Wan asked.

Su Xing nodded and poured half a glass of beer for Xiang Wan.

"You drink it first. If you think this tastes good, there's still one in the refrigerator. I'll get you a bottle later." He hadn't woken up much. "People who have just started drinking beer will not be used to it. It smells like swill. It tastes like swill."

Weird."

It was hot outside, the air conditioner was on in the room, the temperature was moderate, I had cold beer and a sumptuous dinner, and it was very pleasant.

Xiang Wan took a sip of beer, frowned, squinted his eyes, and quickly put down the cup in his hand.

"It tastes really bad." Xiang Wan felt a little uncomfortable, as if she was being tortured. "Why would anyone drink such a horrible thing?"

"Wine is like life. Most people like a life with no difficulties and a smooth sailing. But a life full of hardships and difficulties actually has a different flavor if you experience it carefully." Su Xing said, "The more you drink the wine, the more flavorful it becomes.

."

"Is it really as magical as you said?" Xiang Wan picked up the cup and took another sip.

I drank a little hastily and choked to tears.

"If you don't like it, stop drinking. Eat more food and just drink drinks." Su Xing said with a smile.

"That's not possible. How can I drink a drink? I usually drink drinks. Today is a rare day. I have to celebrate and drink." Xiang Wan stood up and said, "I'll go to the refrigerator and get another can of wine."

"Is that okay?" Su Xing asked, "I don't see you drinking at normal gatherings, so don't get drunk after just one can of beer."

"It's just a bottle of beer. This bottle of beer is only more than 300 ml. How can you get drunk?" Xiang Wan took a can of beer out of the refrigerator and looked at it. "The alcohol concentration is not high, only 15%.

You underestimate me too much."

Two people, two bottles of beer, five or six dishes, eating, chatting and drinking.

"How did you and Tong Wangjun meet? I heard that she transferred to the place where you live, so you got to know each other?" After drinking more than half the bottle of wine, Xiang Wan blushed and started talking more.

She looks a bit funny like this. Normally, when she is awake, Xiang Wan, Yang Yixin, Chen Wei and others will get together occasionally. However, Xiang Wan has never drank alcohol. He drinks all the time and is relatively introverted at the dinner table.

Not so many, let alone asking Su Xing such personal questions.

"That's right, Tong Wangjun and I met when we were in high school. To be precise, it was during the summer vacation of the third year of junior high school. Just after finishing the high school entrance examination, she went to the village to play with her friends. She met me on the road and we got to know each other after that." Su Xing nodded,

"Later, she went to the city senior high school to study, and I was also admitted to the city senior high school. After going back and forth, I gradually became familiar with her."

"The acquaintance between you two feels so romantic. It would be great if I could also have such feelings." Xiang Wan was very envious.

"Relationships are actually a bit elusive. Everyone's life is their own. There is no need to envy others. If you just compare blindly and think that other people's lives are so good or so satisfactory, why are your own lives so miserable?

, you will find that your life is not getting better, but getting worse. But if you think about it differently, instead of comparing yourself, you can look for bright spots and warm moments in your life, and you will find that you were originally struggling.

Life is actually full of warmth," Su Xing said.

"How could it be? What you said is too simple. If you work in the countryside every day, the money you earn all year round is not as much as what people in the city make in a month. How can you find warmth in such a life?" Xiang Wan said,

"Just like my family, my father left home long ago

My mother was the only one who raised my sister and me. Although she didn’t starve to death, she couldn’t even afford the school fees. How could we find warmth and happiness in such a life? I saw her doing it for me.

It's been so hard with my sister, but some of it is just heartache."

"You can also solve the tuition problem by yourself. You can use your summer vacation to do part-time jobs or pick up garbage. Nowadays, many schools offer loans for tuition fees. After you graduate from college, interest will not be charged in the first few years, and you can repay it slowly."

Su Xing said, "It is true that life without money is difficult, but if you only think about this kind of life and it is not what you want, and this kind of life is very difficult, then

You can't discover anything in these years of embarrassment, and it feels like your life has been in vain. On the contrary, if you can treat this period of embarrassment as a temper, as a seasoning in the ups and downs of life, will you be able to get through it?

Be happier? Human beings, after all, isn’t life just for the pursuit of happiness? But in fact, there is no definite meaning of happiness, you can decide it by yourself.”

Xiang Wan was silent for a while, then raised his head: "What you said makes sense, but I feel a little..."

After hesitating for a long time, Xiang Wan didn't say anything.

"Do you feel like your back hurts when you stand and talk?" Su Xing said for her, "Maybe, life is your own, no matter how good others live, no matter how much you envy other people's lives, others will not help you at all. On the contrary, some

Sometimes it is as sweet as sugar, but you can taste happiness from it, and you are the one who benefits. In short, it is the state of mind.

The problem is, when people with a good mentality encounter difficulties, they will only think that this difficulty is a challenge and can help themselves grow. But when people with a bad mentality encounter difficulties, they will think why God is always targeting them and why there is no good person in the world.

There are bad people everywhere, why is my life so miserable and the lives of others so good?"
