Chapter 395 Tell me, what can I do to help you?
Lin Chang'er turned around and saw Wu Qingfeng standing at the door of the room, dressed neatly and holding a lamp in his hand.
It seems they've been waiting for this for a long time.
Lin Chang'er turned her face away and smiled.
He came up and didn't say anything, only saying, "It's nighttime, it's not safe for someone to be alone."
Lin Chang'er nodded, "Shall we take a walk together?"
Wu Qingfeng hummed in agreement.
He held a lantern in one hand and her hand in the other.
Lin Chang'er followed behind, walking quite a distance without saying a word to each other.
Until Wu Qingfeng asked a passerby for directions to Lin Beishan's house.
Lin Chang'er finally couldn't hold back, "Um..." she still didn't know how to tell him.
She had never intended to tell anyone about her time travel, but now she suspected that this Lin Beishan was actually her old man.
Her husband used to rarely call her, but every time he did, he would ask that same question.
The major is a perfect match; the probability of it not being a good fit is extremely low...
If that's true, they should hide their identities as time travelers even more.
After all, supernatural phenomena that even science cannot explain are simply described as supernatural and bizarre in this era.
That's why she was so uneasy.
Actually, she felt she should have been happy to meet him again in another time and space, and to have another day as the old man's client.
But then she thought, how long had she been gone before the old man came over? Who would spend the money in her bank account for her?
I felt even more melancholy in an instant!
But unfortunately, she couldn't find anyone to confide in, not even Wu Qingfeng.
Lin Chang'er hesitated, then gave him an awkward but polite smile.
Wu Qingfeng wasn't annoyed at all. He led her away, his steps steady and his voice as calm and gentle as his steps. He said, "Chang'er, do you know what kind of feeling you've always given me?"
Lin Chang'er let out a "whoosh," and asked, "How does it feel?"
Wu Qingfeng said, "You are trying very hard to change some things, to help your relatives and friends, including anyone you meet by chance who you feel is worth helping."
"I often think about what kind of attitude you should have to change and protect them. Like the compassion of gods and Buddhas? But you and I should both know that gods and Buddhas are just a kind of faith, and people can find solace in their faith."
"But you also provide them with material comforts, ensuring they have enough to eat, wear new clothes, and can access education. You let them know that only by taking up arms and resisting can they protect their homeland. If they retreat an inch, the invading enemy will advance a foot."
"You have your own sense of territory, but you are not stingy with sharing. I think I have met countless people, but this is the first time I have met someone like you. Chang'er, do you feel that you have always been standing from the perspective of an outsider? You see things too clearly and distinctly, and sometimes you can make people feel that you are a bit cold-hearted?"
As Lin Chang'er listened, her heart was like a rollercoaster, rising and falling.
She understood what he meant because she came from a later era and had received an education thousands of years ahead of this time. Although she had tried her best to integrate herself with the qualities that people of this era should have, her perspective and values could not be hidden.
If she wants a comfortable living environment, she must try to assimilate the people around her; otherwise, she will eventually be assimilated by this era.
Lin Chang'er pursed her lips. "Have you ever heard the saying that bad people come from poor and remote areas?"
Wu Qingfeng chuckled and nodded.
Lin Chang'er continued, "You've also heard the saying 'There are houses of gold in books,' right?"
Wu Qingfeng nodded again.
Lin Chang'er said, "Actually, my understanding is that the living environment is too harsh. People may have to use all their strength just to survive, let alone have the ability and resources to study."
"But how can one understand principles and gain wisdom without reading? This creates a vicious cycle."
"Actually, there are no golden houses in the book, but there are great principles of life in the book, and it also gives poor students the opportunity to soar to the sky. Of course, there are also Zhang Liang's strategies in the book."
"Therefore, if we want to change the environment of poor mountains and bad waters, we must read books. Actually, there is a saying that you are also very right. Sometimes I am indeed a cold-hearted person, because I am not a compassionate person. I know my own capabilities and only act within the scope of what I can bear."
After a pause, she asked again, "So, do you feel disappointed?"
Wu Qingfeng turned to her and smiled, "Why be disappointed?"
Lin Chang'er opened her eyes wide and heard him say, "Uncle has a deputy general under his command. He has an elderly mother and a wife and children. In principle, his salary should be enough to support his family. However, one winter, his youngest son froze to death."
"His wife took her young child to the military camp to ask her uncle for help. After some investigation, her uncle found out that the deputy general had used all his salary and food subsidies to help the orphans of his comrades.
"The family relied on his elderly mother and wife doing laundry work to make ends meet. That winter was especially tough. His elderly mother fell ill, and his wife's earnings weren't even enough to buy medicine, let alone charcoal. His young son..."
Lin Chang'er sighed, "You say he's not a good person, but he raised a group of orphans. You say he's a good person, but he let his young son freeze to death. It's hard to judge."
Wu Qingfeng nodded, stopped, and turned to look at her. "Chang'er, I'm telling you this not so you can explain anything to me."
"Everyone has a territory in their heart that belongs only to themselves. What I want to tell you is that if you encounter difficulties and it is inconvenient for you to tell me, then tell me and I will tell you how I can help you."
Lin Chang'er paused, "You..."
Wu Qingfeng chuckled, "Although Yan Qing is a bit older than Little Goldfish, he's still a child after all. I'm more reliable than him. When we get to the Lin family, I'll guard the door for you."
“Wu Qingfeng…” Lin Chang’er looked at him, her heart filled with unease. In her later life, she rarely received such unwavering trust.
On the contrary, it was the Gu family members he met upon arriving here, now Wu Qingfeng.
Lin Chang'er felt a sudden stinging in her eyes, and smiled shyly, saying, "Thank you!"
The next moment, a large hand landed on her head and ruffled her hair.
Lin Chang'er gently patted it away, "You think you're petting a puppy!"
“That dog’s fur isn’t that smooth.”
"Wu Qingfeng..."
"Keep it down, everyone's staring."
Lin Chang'er: "..." Tsk tsk tsk, now she's being shameless again. Don't I have any shame?
After some playful bickering, the two finally found the small courtyard where Lin Beishan and his wife lived.
Lin Chang'er's heart, which had been pounding with anxiety the whole way, was now pounding even harder.
Especially now that she's at the door, she raises her hand and looks at Wu Qingfeng, who nods at her.
Lin Chang'er then knocked on the door.
"Stop knocking, stop knocking, it will be returned, it will be returned. If it's not there during the day, it will be there at night..." Soon, a man's muttering came from the courtyard.
