Chapter 1 Falling from the pinnacle of life

  1973, Tiu Keng Leng, New Territories.

  In a simple two-story wooden house, a young man about seventeen or eighteen years old is staring blankly at the mirror.

   This is not the first time that the young man has stared blankly at the mirror. The familiar face in the mirror, the exact height, and the exact same voice...

  Except for the extra memories in my mind and the era I lived in, everything is like a big dream, making it hard to tell whether we are in reality or in a dream.

  Tread—

   "Second brother, breakfast is ready."

   "Why did you close the door again?"

   "Second brother, are you up yet?"

   "Breakfast"

  Hearing the shout outside the door, Chen Yi couldn't help but come back to his senses.

   I tidied up my clothes a little in front of the mirror

   Open the door straight

   door

  A playful girl who was slightly shorter than Chen Yi by half a head, with somewhat similar brows, was looking at Chen Yi who was tidying up in front of her with wide eyes, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes.

   "Second brother, so you are up."

   "I thought you were still sleeping in bed."

  When Chen Yi heard this, his face turned red.

Looking at his own sister in this life, Chen Yi felt warm in his heart. In his previous life, as an only child, he was held in the hands of his parents since he was a child. Everything in the house was his own. It seems pretty good, but only Chen Yi knows the real situation in his heart.

  Sometimes when he sees younger brothers and sisters in other people's families, playing and fighting together, he can't help being envious. Maybe this is what people often say is hypocritical!

  Owned, do not know how to cherish.

  No, I couldn't help being envious.

  Compared to the rest of the family, because Chen Yi was used to going to bed late and waking up late in his previous life, he hasn't adjusted for half a month.

  In the previous life, although Chen Yi's family wasn't considered a wealthy family, they have stepped into the ranks of wealthy families anyway, and they can be regarded as a small rich second generation.

  In the previous life, although Chen Yi's parents were not the bosses or noble ladies of some group companies, the family lived a small life, no worse than some group bosses and wealthy wives.

   In the 21st century, there is a very enviable profession.

  It is not the CEO of a big company, nor is it the richest man in the world, nor is it the richest man in the world.

Instead, he carries two strings of key chains in his hand, flip-flops on his feet, a sack on his shoulder, and a full set of ordinary shorts and vests all over his body. Charter in-laws.

  Chen Yi's family does not have a mine, and he is not the richest man in the region. He just owns two ten-story apartment buildings near the city center.

  In an era when most young people could not afford to buy a house on their own, and the down payment required spending their parents' lifetime savings, and everyone gradually became Buddhist.

  Chen Yi's life is quite happy.

  In his previous life, he didn't need to worry about what to do when his parents got old, and he didn't need to worry about finding a job or food.

  In which material flow, information-rich era.

  As long as you don't break the law and commit crimes, and your family has a mine, no, a building, then you have reached the pinnacle of your life.

   "Second brother, what are you thinking?"

  Chen Ying tilted her head and looked at her second brother. She didn't know when she discovered that her second brother always liked to be alone in a daze.

   In this situation, Chen Ying didn't know whether it was good or bad.

  However, in her heart, she was somewhat worried.

  Chen Yi didn't answer, but directly changed the subject and asked, "Xiaoying, are Big Brother and Dad at home?"

   "Dad and brother are out." Chen Ying said as she walked into Chen Yi's room, looked around, and found that the quilt on the bed had been tidied up, and the room was no longer as messy as before.

   "Brother, are you still planning to go out to find a job today?"

   "Someone asked me out today, and I won't be looking for it for now."

   "An appointment?" When Chen Ying heard this, her eyes lit up, and she asked curiously, "Male or female? Is it the one who called you yesterday?"

   "No" Chen Yi rolled his eyes, and said something wrong.

"Humph" Seeing her second brother's appearance, Chen Ying knew that he was not telling the truth, so she was a little unhappy and said, "Liar, I just heard from the old ruffian that the person who came to see you yesterday was a woman, and it was your second brother." classmate."

"Damn, that old ruffian who doesn't talk about the door." Chen Yi was speechless for a moment, a black cloud floated over his forehead, and he couldn't help but want to beat up that old ruffian who just likes everyone. pause.

  No way, this is the poorest area in Xiangjiang, even poorer than the legendary Kowloon Walled City. It would be nice to have a public phone, so don't even think about privacy.

  However, the poor here is poor, but relative to living, it is still much better than other places in Xiangjiang.

   These days, there are many families with large populations, six or seven members of a family, who are crowded into houses of less than ten square meters, which can be found everywhere.

Although Chen Yi's home is in the poorest place in Xiangjiang, the advantage is that the whole family doesn't have to live in one room. There are two floors upstairs and downstairs. He lives upstairs with his sister who is three years younger than him. Chen's mother and his eldest brother live downstairs. If you don't consider the building materials of the house...don't consider the fire hazards in summer, etc., this place is actually pretty good.

  The house where Chen Yi's family lives, including most of the houses in Tiujingling, are all so-called squatter huts.

  竂屋 in Xiangjiang refers to temporary residences built by illegal occupation of land. The buildings are usually quite simple and mostly made of iron sheets and wooden boards, so they are also commonly known as iron sheet houses and wooden houses.

   Such a house can definitely be called cool in winter and warm in summer.

   In this regard, Chen Yi couldn't help being anxious about his first pot of gold.

  The first pot of gold in life is the hardest to earn. Chen Yi, who didn't have to worry about money in his previous life, now starts to worry about money.

  Although he is now living in an era that many people in later generations envy, but if he can choose again, Chen Yi will definitely choose to stay in the 21st century without hesitation.

  What do you do Li Chaoren, sleep Li Moumou and the like, go to hell!

  Mom sells batches, I have two buildings in my house waiting to be inherited, wear a ghost, wear it, isn't it nice to collect rent every month? Staying at home every day playing games, reading novels, going out for a trip or something if you have nothing to do, isn't it good?

   Now it's better, the family building can't be inherited, and in the end, I don't know whether it's cheaper for the country or the country.

  At this moment, Chen Yi really wanted to cry, really wanted to shed tears. . .

  Although the country had opened up the second-child policy before Chen Yi traveled, but his parents are not young, it will undoubtedly be very difficult to have another child...

  Life is full of emotions, and after feeling the emotion, it is still inevitable to accept the reality. For a person born after the 1990s, Chen Yi is the same as most of the post-90s. Reality has shaped a strong heart for them.

  Buddhism, the most important thing is to see and think.

  However, as a standard post-50s, with a generation gap of 40 years, Chen Yi feels that he is no longer Buddhist.
