It's not the first time I've had an argument with my wife.
When she questioned me again about my idleness all day, I finally couldn't take it anymore and angrily slammed the door and left.
Zhang San, you are 32 years old, you can't live like this anymore!All we know is playing games all day, our savings are running out, and you don't change!The wife complained angrily.
It's not been a day or two since I was looking for a job, how could it be so easy!I'm anxious too, okay?I replied irritably.
But the job you're looking for is either too low-paying, or you don't want to go at all!Can you find me a job that is enough to support my family?My wife said.
Alright, alright, you're right!So what do you recommend?I couldn't take it anymore, grabbed my car keys and rushed out.
My wife was yelling behind me, but I ignored it.
When I finally got into the car and slammed the door shut, I felt a sense of relief.
I didn't know how long I had been driving, but when I stopped the car, I realized that I had come to a place I hadn't been before.
After getting out of the car, I wandered the streets aimlessly.
It was getting dark and I walked into a tavern with the intention of having a drink to relieve the tension.
I sat alone at the bar, silently snapped my fingers at the bartender, and called, "Boss, bring me a beer." ”
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in my ears: "Is drinking to forget about your worries?"Drinking alone can be even more frustrating. ”
I turned my head and saw a man about thirty years old sitting next to me, waving to the bartender: "Boss, bring him a bottle too." ”
The man, dressed in a simple shabby shirt and cargo pants, and a crumpled fisherman's hat, looked like a manual laborer.
I replied boredly.
Haha, your expression says it all.
Are you in an argument with your wife, like me?Why don't we have a drink and talk and make ourselves happy!The man said with a smile.
Somehow, I actually started talking to this stranger.
Hello, my name is Wang Da Hammer, and there is only one word, Big Hammer.
I'm sorry, but seeing you sitting here alone hurts, I can't help but want to talk. ”
He said happily.
My name is Zhang San, and it's nothing, I just quarreled with my wife. ”
I took a sip of my beer and muffled.
Haha, bro, I understand you.
Probably because your wife hates you for being at home all day with nothing to do, right?Wang Dazhui guessed.
That's right. ”
In fact, I was once urged by my wife to find a job, just like you.
Later, I figured out that money is not so important, what matters is being able to live happily and comfortably. ”
Wang Dazhui said slowly.
I was very surprised: "You mean, you're not working now?".So how do you maintain your living expenses?"Brother, who said you would starve to death if you didn't work?In this world, there are many people who are willing to work, and I can do odd jobs when I need to.
The rest of the time, I'm free to live my life!"Wang's words shocked me and made me question.
My outlook on life seems to have taken a huge hit.
You can think about it, a lot of things that we think are important are actually things that we can choose to give up.
For example, luxury cars, brand-name watches, high consumption, housing loans and car loans, is it really so necessary for a happy life?"I fell silent.
Wang Dazhui's words touched a corner of my heart.
Do you want to come with me, brother?Wang Dazhui patted me on the shoulder, "I'll take you to feel my life and see if it's right for you."
If you're not satisfied, you can always leave, how about it?I hesitated, but finally nodded.
I can't go home right now anyway.
Great!Trust me, you'll find your new self!Wang Dazhui said excitedly.
In this way, I started a new journey with Wang Dazhu, whom I had just met. We got into his beat-up minivan and drove out of the city.
We're going to **?I asked, a little apprehensively.
We're going to go to my home country, where life is free, and I'm sure you'll like it. ”
The car drove for nearly two hours, and the scenery on the way gradually became desolate and lonely.
Finally, we came to a small mountain village in the middle of nowhere.
It's all dilapidated tiled houses, and they look very shabby.
Is this your home?I asked, a little disappointed.
Haha, life in a small village is much freer than in the city, Wang Dazhui said.
The wildflowers bloom brilliantly all over the mountains, and the scenery is pleasant.
Wang Dazhui took me for a walk on the mountain path, and picked some wild fruits for me to taste along the way.
I can't help but marvel at the abundance of nature's gifts.
Wang Dazhui said with a smile: "Here, whatever you want to eat is picked directly from the mountain, fresh and delicious, and free." ”
It's truly a whole new experience.
I'm starting to think that maybe Wang's lifestyle has its own point.
In the evening, the villagers gather to make a fire and cook.
The simple grill of meat and sake made me feel extremely satisfied.
I sighed, "I didn't expect life in a mountain village to be so happy!".Wang Dazhui raised his glass, and we clinked glasses and drank.
In this way, I stayed in the village for a week.
Every day, Wang Dazhui and I swing around in the mountains, breathe in the fresh air, eat the food in the mountains, and feel carefree.
One day, Wang Dazhui suddenly said to me: "Hey, Zhang San, your wife is here." ”
I was overwhelmed when I took the phone.
Where the hell have you gone?Let's go home and let's talk. ”
My wife's voice was a little choked.
I need some time, I'll be back, don't worry just yet. ”
Third brother, do you just want a home like that?The wife's tone was excited.
I hung up the **, with mixed feelings in my heart.
I was attracted to this kind of free and happy life, but I knew that I couldn't leave my family.
Alas, brother, I understand your feelings.
Why don't we go back to the city tomorrow?Wang sledgehammer patted me on the shoulder.
I nodded. Early the next morning, Wang Dazhui drove me out of the mountain village and back to the city.
At parting, he gave me a big hug.
Remember, the meaning of life is not to pursue, but to experience and enjoy the present moment.
I hope you find your own happiness. ”
I nodded silently.
Perhaps, I should communicate with my wife and find a way to live a happy life for both of us.
This experience opened my eyes to more possibilities.
After breaking up with Wang Dazhui, I wandered alone in the familiar city streets, and the long-lost noise surrounded me again.
I needed time to think, so instead of going home right away, I found a coffee shop to sit down.
After thinking about it, I decided to have a serious talk with my wife.
Maybe Wang's lifestyle doesn't suit me well, but I also have the right to pursue a work-life balance.
At this moment, my wife's ** called again.
Where are you?Come home and let's talk!The wife's anxious voice came.
I'm at the coffee shop, you come here to pick me up, and we'll talk face-to-face. ”
I plucked up the courage to say.
Okay, don't go, I'll come right away. ”
After my wife finished speaking, she hung up**.
I sat nervously in my seat, rehearsing what I was going to say to my wife.
About half an hour later, my wife came to the coffee shop and looked at me anxiously.
Third brother, you're worried about me to death!The wife sat down and said reproachfully.
I'm sorry, it's me who is bad, I should have communicated with you well. ”
I said with my head down.
What the hell is going on?Who have you met?The wife asked anxiously.
Gradually, my wife was comforted as well.
I am very pleased that she has regained her passion for work and life.
One day, she suddenly said to me, "Thank you, my dear, for always being with me through the most difficult times. ”
I hugged her tightly.
You've made me a better person, and it's all worth it. ”
Through the difference between life and death, our relationship has become stronger, and we cherish this rare time together.
Looking back, I am grateful to my wife for going through the ups and downs with me and sharing the wisdom and happiness of life.
