Time and space on Earth No. x, in a rental house. Hearing the sound, Tang Xiaosheng turned around and saw Yue'er sitting on the bed, holding a book in her hand, titled "The Meaning of Madness: Nietzsche's Philosophy of Superman". "Brother Tang, were you dreaming when you were sleeping?" Yue'er put down the book in her hand, with a sly look in her big watery eyes, and asked curiously, "You have been talking in your sleep just now." "Talking in your sleep?" Tang Xiaosheng His heart tightened slightly and he was half-convinced, "Did I talk in my sleep?" "Yes." "What did I talk in my sleep?" Tang Xiaosheng asked. "I don't know." Yue'er shook her head, "When you talk in your sleep, your speech is unclear and you don't know what you are talking about. Brother Tang, what did you dream about?" He stretched his arms on the sofa, Tang Xiaosheng sat up and said: "I had a nightmare." "Nightmare? What nightmare?" "I dreamed about you." "Why is it a nightmare to dream about me? It should be a sweet dream." Yue'er rolled her eyes twice and asked curiously. , "Brother Tang, in your dream, which name did I use? Yue'er, Chen Yameng, or Yang Ziwen?" Tang Xiaosheng blurted out: "Of course it's Chen Yameng." Hearing this, Yue'er's mouth twitched slightly. Pouting, he seemed dissatisfied: "How could it be Chen Yameng? My name is Yang Ziwen, you should be dreaming about Yang Ziwen." Tang Xiaosheng said: "I only found out last night that your name is Yang Ziwen, and Yang Ziwen and I know each other. It¡¯s less than a day, and Chen Yameng has known me for more than five years. How could I not dream about Chen Yameng?¡± Yue¡¯er bit her pink lower lip. Asked: "Then will Brother Tang dream of Yang Ziwen in the future?" "It depends on your performance." Tang Xiaosheng said seriously, "If you are gentle, virtuous, considerate, and leave a good impression on me , I may still dream about Yang Ziwen. But if you are too wild and willful, then I am afraid I will not dream about you." Yue'er asked curiously: "How can you be gentle, virtuous, and considerate? " Tang Xiaosheng stood up from the sofa and said, "A gentle and virtuous girl should be more polite. Don't be unreasonable. You have been staying here all night. After breakfast, you have to go home. "Can you do it?" Yue'er asked, "What about Brother Tang?" "Nonsense, of course I will go to work at the construction site." "Okay. Take a shower. Go out for breakfast later and then go home." Yue'er thought for a while and nodded reluctantly: "Okay." After that. Put the "The Meaning of Madness: Nietzsche's Philosophy of Superman" in your hand on the bed, get off the bed, put on your shoes, and then follow Tang Xiaosheng to the bathroom, ready to wash up. After entering the bathroom, Yue'er immediately picked up a white toothbrush placed on the windowsill and prepared to brush her teeth without even thinking about it. But just as she squeezed the toothpaste onto the toothbrush, Tang Xiaosheng had already snatched the toothbrush away and said, "This toothbrush belongs to me, you can't use it." Yue'er raised her eyebrows slightly: "Why can't I? We didn't when we were kids Have you always shared the same toothbrush?" Tang Xiaosheng said: "It was different when I was a child, but now." "What's the difference?" Yue'er seemed unconvinced. Tang Xiaosheng asked back: "When you were a child, you often bathed with your butt naked in front of me. Would you like to take a bath now?" "" Yue'er. With a curl of her little mouth, Yue'er asked resentfully: "Then how do I brush my teeth?" "Use your own fingers to brush." ??Tang Xiaosheng said, "Who asked you to spend the night at my place? I sent you home last night. , you just don¡¯t go back, this is your punishment.¡± Yue¡¯er raised her right hand, looked at her fingers, and complained, ¡°How can you brush your teeth with your fingers?¡± ¡°Who said you can¡¯t brush your teeth with your fingers? Look." Tang Xiaosheng picked up the toothpaste, squeezed out a small inch of toothpaste on his finger, then used his finger as a toothbrush, put it into his mouth and started brushing his teeth. Seeing this, Yue'er's face immediately revealed a smile. Without thinking too much, she squeezed a small piece of toothpaste onto her right index finger, and then imitated Tang Xiaosheng's movements and began to brush the toothbrush with her fingers. So, in the bathroom, I saw a man and a woman brushing their teeth in a strange way. While brushing her teeth, Yue'er remembered something and suddenly asked: "Brother Tang, why is there a book "The Meaning of Madness: Nietzsche's Philosophy of Superman" in your room? Do you also like Nietzsche's philosophy?" Tang Xiaosheng clarified : "This book does not belong to me, but to that bit actor. Wasn't there a bit actor who lived in this rental house before? Most of the books in the rental house belong to him, and he didn't take them with him when he moved., so I got a bargain. " "oh. Yue'er suddenly understood and said, "But you have also read these books, right?" I found many of your pen-written annotations on the pages of "The Meaning of Madness: Nietzsche's Philosophy of the Superman". " Tang Xiaosheng frowned slightly: "How do you know those annotations were written by me? " "of course I know. Yue'er said with a bit of pride, "Brother Tang's calligraphy of dog crawling is exactly the same as when he was a child. It hasn't changed at all. I recognized it at a glance." " "" Tang Xiaosheng was a little speechless. He didn't expect that his handwriting left such a deep impression on Yue'er. Eight years later, she still remembered it. "Brother Tang, what do you think the 'Superman' mentioned in Nietzsche's philosophy refers to? what? "At this time, Yue'er asked curiously, "I see that you have written a lot of notes in the book. You seem to be very knowledgeable about Superman philosophy. " After coughing, Tang Xiaosheng said: "The 'Superman' philosophy is actually very simple, just take moving bricks as an example. You can earn 20 yuan by moving one truckload of bricks. If you move 3 trucks of bricks in a day, you can earn 60 yuan. If you can move 5 trucks of bricks in a day, you can earn 100 yuan. If you can move 10 trucks of bricks in a day, you are a 'superman'. A person who does what others cannot do is a superman. " Yue'er chuckled and asked, "Brother Tang, are you Superman? " "certainly. "Tang Xiaosheng said, "I still hold the record of moving 12 carts of bricks a day on the construction site, and it has been a full year and a half. This record has never been broken. " "real or fake? Yue'er didn't know much about moving bricks because she had never seen such a thing when she was in the United States. She asked curiously, "Is it difficult to move 12 cars of bricks a day?" " "It's not very difficult, as long as you work hard for 20 hours, you can basically do it. "Tang Xiaosheng turned on the faucet, rinsed his mouth, then wiped the corners of his mouth with a towel, and then said, "Okay, little rich woman. Move quickly. It's almost seven o'clock and we are in a hurry. " "oh. " After washing up, Yue'er returned to the room and briefly combed her hair a few times with Tang Xiaosheng's comb. After dressing up, the two left the rental house. After walking more than a hundred meters, they came to a nearby breakfast room Eat at a small shop. Normally, Tang Xiaosheng¡¯s breakfast would be a cup of soy milk and two steamed buns, but today his breakfast was upgraded to a bottle of milk and four large meat buns bought by Yue¡¯er. This little girl kept saying that Tang Xiaosheng was too thin and should eat more meat. After breakfast, Tang Xiaosheng originally decided to send Yue'er back to Tianhu Hotel, but Yue'er politely refused. "Brother Tang, I can do it myself." Go back, you don¡¯t have to send me away. Yue'er said, "It's already past seven o'clock. You should go directly to the construction site to avoid being late." " "Is it really okay for you to go back by yourself? " "No problem at all. Yue'er said, "I'll take a rental car back. The taxi can take me directly to the door of Tianhu Hotel. I'm sure everything will be fine. You don't have to worry." Brother Tang, you go to work, I'll go back to the hotel by myself. " After the discussion, Yue'er stopped a taxi, said hello to Tang Xiaosheng, and left quickly. After Yue'er's taxi disappeared from sight, Tang Xiaosheng took back his thoughts and headed towards the bus. After arriving at the construction site, Tang Xiaosheng¡¯s task this morning was to press steel bars from eight o¡¯clock in the morning to noon. After resting for an hour, he continued to press steel bars in the afternoon. At about two o'clock in the afternoon, two carts of bricks came to the construction site. Tang Xiaosheng pulled the iron cart and started to move bricks again. Tang Xiaosheng's work today was not much different from usual. The only thing was. The difference is that many workers came to ask about Yue'er. Last night, seven or eight workers saw Tang Xiaosheng and Yue'er playing in the construction site. At that time, Yue'er even admitted that she was Tang Xiaosheng's. Girlfriend, this incident shocked these workers and felt incredible. So, when they arrived at the construction site today, they asked Tang Xiaosheng, wanting to know the whole story. Tang Xiaosheng told the truth that he and Yue'er were together in the orphanage. After hearing about the experience of growing up, almost all the workers did not believe Tang Xiaosheng¡¯s words. They all felt that if Yue¡¯er had really gone to the United States for eight years, Tang Xiaosheng should have been forgotten long ago. Even if they had not forgotten, It was impossible to go back to China to find Tang Xiaosheng. Seven or eight workers all felt that Tang Xiaosheng was lying and believed that there was something hidden in it. In fact, even Tang Xiaosheng himself was not sure. I believe that he originally thought that he and Yue'er would never interact again. After all, the two were just playmates when they were children. After all, they had been separated for eight years. After all, they were thousands of kilometers apart, one in the United States and the other in the United States. In -country. When Yue'er suddenly appeared last night, Tang Xiaosheng always suspected that he was dreaming, because everything was completely beyond his expectation. However, no matter how hard you believe it, Yue'er finally appeared. "Xiao Tang! Your girlfriend is here!" At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Tang Xiaosheng was moving bricks in the construction site under the scorching sun. His co-worker Lao Wang came over and said with a smile, "Xiao Tang, stop moving, you The fairy-like girlfriend is here." Tang Xiaosheng straightened up, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and asked puzzledly: "What?" Lao Wang raised his right hand, pointed to the location under the wall on the east side of the construction site, and said: " Did you see it, your girlfriend?" Tang Xiaosheng looked in the direction he pointed and saw a young woman, about twenty years old, standing in a shady place under the wall. She was wearing white casual clothes. Wearing a purple hat on his head and holding a bottle of mineral water in his hand, he was standing quietly under the wall, with a pair of big eyes looking around, seeming to be looking for something. Seeing this, Tang Xiaosheng recognized that the girl wearing a purple hat was Yue'er. "Why did this little girl come to the construction site again?" With this question, Tang Xiaosheng put down the iron cart carrying bricks. Then quickly walked towards the wall on the east side of the construction site. "Yue'er!" "Huh?" Upon hearing the voice, Yue'er immediately turned her head. When she saw Tang Xiaosheng, her eyes suddenly lit up and she shouted with joy, "Brother Tang!" Tang Xiaosheng walked up to Yue'er and asked "Why are you coming to the construction site again?" "It's so boring to stay in the hotel, so I came to see you, hehe." Yue'er raised her little hand and handed over the mineral water. said. "Brother Tang, drink water." "I'm not thirsty." Tang Xiaosheng said, "If nothing happens, you can go back to the hotel. This is a construction site, not a park. If you have nothing to do, don't come here and wander around. It's so hot today, so be careful. "Heat stroke." Yue'er said, "I won't have heat stroke. It's quite cool to stand here. It's so boring to stay in the hotel." Tang Xiaosheng reminded, "I don't have time to accompany you." You, I still have to move bricks." Yue'er said, "Yes, I know. Brother Tang, go ahead and do your work. Don't worry about me." Tang Xiaosheng wanted to persuade her to leave, but this little girl is a bit stubborn. There was no use trying to persuade her, she just didn't want to leave. In desperation, Tang Xiaosheng had no choice but to warn: "Stay here, don't run around. If you are thirsty, drink water, remember?" Yue'er nodded. After explaining the matter, Tang Xiaosheng turned away and walked back to the construction site to continue moving bricks. Today there were only two trucks of bricks, one less than yesterday. The workload was not too heavy. After fighting for more than two hours, Tang Xiaosheng finished moving two carts of bricks at 6:30 in the evening. After moving the bricks, his task for the day was completed and he could get off work. After packing up his dirty clothes, Tang Xiaosheng turned around and walked towards the east wall of the construction site. Until this moment, Yue'er still stayed under the wall. She watched the whole process of Tang Xiaosheng moving bricks. "Yue'er, you can go." When he walked to the wall, Tang Xiaosheng was about to take Yue'er away. However, when he walked to Yue'er, he found that her watery eyes were slightly red and her eyes were already moist. , and there were crystal tears in the corners of his eyes. Seeing this, Tang Xiaosheng frowned slightly, wondering in his heart, and asked with concern: "Yue'er, what's wrong? Why are you crying? What happened?" Yue'er wiped the corners of her eyes with her small hand and shook her head gently: " I'm fine." Tang Xiaosheng said, "You're crying, are you okay? Tell me, what happened?" Yue'er pursed her lips, her soft eyes falling on Tang Xiaosheng's sweaty face. With a look of pity on his face, he asked seriously: "Brother Tang, is your job very hard?" Tang Xiaosheng was stunned for a moment, a little puzzled: "It's okay, what's wrong?" Yue'er Qiong's nose was slightly sour. , said: "It must be very hard. You have to move so many bricks one by one, and the weather is so hot. I saw the sweat sliding down your face and dripping on the ground" As he spoke, Yue The child suddenly choked up, his eyes turned red, tears fell from the corners of his eyes again, and he sobbed softly. Tang Xiaosheng was stunned. Only then did he understand why Yue'er was crying. He smiled faintly and said comfortingly: "Fool, you have to work when you go to work. Who doesn't work hard? Do you think everyone can be like you? Want to be a little rich woman?" Yue'er looked at Tang Xiaosheng's dark arms and calloused palms, her jade nose turned red, "But Brother Tang was very hard, he had been moving bricks all afternoon, and his clothes were soaked with sweat. Transparent"¡" He wiped the corners of his eyes, controlled his emotions, and then said, "Brother Tang, are you hungry? Shall we go to eat?" " Tang Xiaosheng nodded. So, just like last night, Yue'er took Tang Xiaosheng's hand and left the construction site together, and went to Sister Fang's restaurant. After arriving at the restaurant, Tang Xiaosheng directly ordered beef soup and lobster, and prepared for the big meal Eat a meal. He didn't usually say this extravagantly, but he had to do it tonight. If he didn't eat these, Yue'er would definitely buy them for him. Therefore, Tang Xiaosheng mainly ate them. This little girl saw Tang Xiaosheng moving bricks at the construction site this afternoon. She didn't really know what moving bricks meant until now. She finally knew why Tang Xiaosheng looked so thin. She even felt that Tang Xiaosheng should make up for it. He always advised Tang Xiaosheng to eat more meat. In order to deal with this girl, Tang Xiaosheng brought 500 yuan with him when he went out in the morning. He was finally able to have a big meal at the restaurant with his own money tonight. Eat more lobster. Yue'er peeled off a lobster and put it in Tang Xiaosheng's bowl. She seemed to be very distressed and said, "You must be very tired after a long day, right?" " Tang Xiaosheng smiled faintly and said, "It's just two carts of bricks, what's the point? " "How can you not be tired? Yue'er said, "I feel the weather is so hot even when I stand under the shade of the trees on the wall. You must be many times more tired than me moving bricks under the scorching sun." Brother Tang, do you have to do so much work every day? " Tang Xiaosheng said: "No, sometimes more. Sometimes less. "I joked. "However, this is a normal job. You are very strange. Many people work this way. Not as miserable as you say. Don't judge a man's belly by a woman's heart. Yue'er's willow eyebrows curved. She asked, "Brother Tang, how long have you been working at the construction site?" " "More than two years." " "Two years? So long? Yue'er's slender eyebrows tightened slightly, and a trace of uneasiness flashed across her pretty face. She pursed her lips and asked softly, "Brother Tang, why don't you change your job?" " "This job is very good, why should I change it? "Tang Xiaosheng asked back. "What's so good about this job? Yue'er said in confusion, "I move bricks every day and do heavy physical work. How can my body bear it?" Even if an American bodybuilder lifts bricks every day, he might not be able to stand it. It's quite dangerous to move such bricks. What if you are accidentally hit by a brick? Also, your hands have calluses. In winter, the skin may crack and it will definitely be very painful. " Tang Xiaosheng said: "How can it be so exaggerated? You little brat, don¡¯t make any guesses. Moving bricks is a very good job. How many people in China rely on it to survive. It has made an indelible contribution to building a well-off society. " "But you can't move bricks forever, right? Yue'er said seriously while peeling the shrimps, "Brother Tang, you are so capable, you can definitely find something else to do, a different job." " Tang Xiaosheng followed her words: "What kind of job should I change? " Yue'er thought for a while and asked, "Brother Tang, what is your dream? " "dream? Tang Xiaosheng asked, "What is a dream?" Yue'er said: "That's your wish. It's something worth pursuing throughout your life." For example, be a painter, a musician, a scientist, an architect, etc. " Tang Xiaosheng smiled and said: "These things you are talking about are too high-end and I can't reach them. " "Nope. Brother Tang, I remember you were very smart when you were a child. Nothing could stump you. As long as you work hard, you will definitely do well. Yue'er said confidently, her eyebrows arched, and she asked with concern, "Brother Tang, what is your dream?" Just tell me and I'll analyze it for you. " Tang Xiaosheng took a bite of lobster and said, "I don't have any dreams. " "Impossible, how can people not have dreams? Yue'er's squeamish face sank and she said angrily, "Brother Tang, do you not trust me and are you unwilling to tell me your dream?" " Seeing the resentful look on her face, Tang Xiaosheng said: "I do have a dream now, but it will definitely not come true. " Yue'er said: "No, it can definitely be realized. Just tell me. " Tang Xiaosheng said: "It's better not to say anything. What if once you tell your dream, it doesn't come true? Wouldn't it turn into a joke? Yue'er's chest puffed up and she encouraged, "Brother Tang, I think you will be fine. You have to have confidence in yourself." " "Of course I have confidence in myself, I just don't have confidence in you. " "Don't have confidence in me? Yue'er was puzzled, "Is your dream related to me?" " "yes. "TangThe teacher said, "If you are not willing to cooperate, my dream will not come true." Yue'er thought for a while and said, "Brother Tang, tell me, I will definitely cooperate!" "Really?" "Yeah." " What if you break your promise? " "If I go back on my word, I will be a puppy." "No, you have been a puppy many times." "" Yue'er rolled her eyes and said, "Then what do you say. Right?" "If you regret it, are you Xiaozhu?" "Okay!" Yue'er agreed decisively, "Brother Tang, can you talk about your dream now?" "Of course." , "My current dream is that when I go home later, I hope that you will stop following me and return to Tianhu Hotel immediately." Yue'er realized that she had been fooled and curled her lips: "Is this also called a dream?" " "What, can't you?" Tang Xiaosheng said, "I've been working all day and I'm terribly tired. I just want to go home and have a good sleep. Please don't pester me tonight like you did last night." Yue'er Qiongbi. Wrinkled, after thinking for a while, he nodded and said: "Okay, I will go back to Tianhu Hotel in a while." "That's good. After dinner, I will take you back to the hotel." "No, Brother Tang "You've been tired for a long day. Go home and go to bed. I'll just call a taxi." Half an hour later, dinner was finished. Yue'er was a girl who kept her word. After eating, she actually called a taxi and left without pestering Tang Xiaosheng again. As for Tang Xiaosheng, he took the bus and returned to his rental house. After returning home, he took a cold shower and then sat on the bed. After sitting on the bed, Tang Xiaosheng did not rest immediately. Instead, he picked up a book on the bed called "The Self-cultivation of Actors". This book was not bought by Tang Xiaosheng, but left by the bit actor who lived in this room before. He left a total of more than a dozen books. Occasionally, when he was bored, Tang Xiaosheng would open it and take a look. . After reading "An Actor's Self-cultivation" for more than twenty minutes, Tang Xiaosheng put the book aside and picked up another book called "Guitar Guide for Three Months", which is a basic guide on guitar playing. An introductory book on techniques. Tang Xiaosheng has never learned guitar. He has basically never touched a guitar. He only read the introduction to guitar playing in "Guitar March Pass" out of interest. While reading, time passed by minute by minute, and before I knew it, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. "Dong dong dong!" At this time, the bedroom door suddenly knocked. Tang Xiaosheng frowned slightly, it's already so late now, who is knocking on the door? Thinking about it, at this moment, Yue'er's sweet voice came from outside the rental house: "Brother Tang, are you asleep?" (To be continued)
