Li Biran is actually smart and has a flexible mind. She was originally considered to be able to make progress in junior high school. Although she was not a complete effort in junior high school, she was still very considerate. As a result, she performed extremely well in the junior high school exam and went to this very good private high school. She was also called a noble school.

Tuition and living expenses are also very expensive. Although his parents worked outside the country, they gritted their teeth and said: It’s all for the future of their children. Now that the child is successful and has been admitted to such a good high school, even if he has to spend a large part of his savings, he still has to go to it.

However, it was not until after living in the new high school that Li Biran realized what it means to be a fat man with a swollen face.

It turns out that although he is not a storied person in the district, he is also a character. When he gets here, what are he still?

Most of them are either rich or noble. They are either officials or businessmen. Those people buy trendy shoes worth thousands of dollars a pair without blinking. They change the new Apple model. Sometimes Li Biran sits in her seat and listens to her deskmate chatting with others:

“Did you buy IponeXS?”

"I bought two, one for my own use and one for my sister."

"But I still want to try Huawei p20, that one looks good."

"Okay, okay, then I'll buy one to play with. If it doesn't work, give it to my aunt."

...

Li Biran suddenly felt that the one in her pocket was still 80% new Apple 8, which was a bit hot.

When he got home that day, he called his parents: "Mom, I want to change my phone."

The mother was stunned for a moment and asked, "Didn't you just change it last year?"

Li Biran said: "Our classmates have all used new ones! Apple XS, everyone has one. Why don't you buy it for me?"

The mother asked in a low voice: "How much does that cost?"

"Ten thousand."

“…”

Of course, my mother didn't buy him a new phone later, and when my father learned about it, he scolded him on the phone: "In order to get you to this high school, all the money we made in the past few years has been thrown in. You don't want to study hard, but you have to change your phone again. How can we have that much money? You are so ignorant!"

After hanging up the phone, Li Biran felt a little frustrated and cowardly. He felt very angry. Of course, this anger was aimed at his parents who seemed indifferent to him, but it seemed to be vaguely aimed at him and everything around him. Xie Huifang, the home that was not his home at all. There are also schools, those strangers who seemed to live in another world.

Not to mention the first test after entering the school, Li Biran was in the top ten in the class. He thought that those rich and noble children must be all the money. Before the exam, he secretly reviewed for a while and wanted to make a big splash, but he slapped him in the face. In addition, he felt that the teacher's eyes when he looked at him were much colder than those who had good grades and good family background...

Ho...Don't fucking look down on others.

Li Biran is less and less fond of going to school. He and those people are not together at all. The first year of high school is almost over, but he and his classmates seem to be getting more and more unfamiliar. The strangeness is a feeling of falling into the quagmire, very slowly, sinking deeper and deeper. You watch it happen, but you can do nothing, and you can only gradually become stiff and numb.

As his grades declined, more and more missed class violations, and more and more parents scolded and disappointed. Xie Huifang and Li Biran felt that she liked to give orders more and more, and she was less and less treating him as a human being. She was in charge of everything and had to keep an eye on everything. She was like an excited middle-aged female spy, who seemed to look forward to finding new evidence that "this child is indeed disobedient and hopeless."

Li Biran likes to go to Internet cafes more and more. Whether he goes to school or goes back to the so-called "home", he feels like he is in jail.

"Damn, I'll kill you."

"I want to die."

"I really want to kill someone."

...

These words are often spoken by the teenagers and even adults in the Internet cafe. Even the powerful sons in the school can say them casually. Sometimes Li Biran would say them when playing games in the Internet cafe. Such words are actually very pleasant when they say them.

Many times, when a boy's mind is confused and full of hostility, he always has a very chaotic and indescribable impulse, wanting to do something and break the life of this fucked boy.

Liu Ruoyu has liked reading books, comic strips, newspapers, textbooks, and even dictionaries since he was a child. He could read them quietly for an afternoon when he held them up. His favorite thing was to read detective novels, where the protagonists in them were smart, cunning, and had a sense of justice, and could always control the overall situation.

It was a life very, very far away from him.

He lived in his uncle's house since he was a child, without his parents. They passed away when he was very young. I heard that he died of working outside. In my memory, he lived with his grandfather for two or three years, and later his grandfather died. He lived with his uncle.

Uncle and aunt set up a small farm in the village, but they were always not as good as other people's families, and they didn't make much money, and sometimes they even lost money in the past few years. The couple often played cards, sometimes losing thousands of yuan in a bet, and even their own children played. Liu Ruoyu always stood in the corner without saying a word, but he would still be beaten.

Their children were older and were all in high school and boarding in the county. Liu Ruoyu was still in junior high school in the town and lived with them. Sometimes his aunt was busy playing cards and had no time to pay attention to them, so she bought 10 packs of noodles at home. There was no meat whistle, only oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. For a few months, Liu Ruoyu went home from school every day to eat noodles.

The clothes are school uniforms, worn all year round. They wash themselves, but they are clean and neat. They have no money to buy books, so they can only borrow them from their classmates. Later, I heard that they could read e-books. He went to pick up rags for half a year and bought the cheapest mobile phone.

Uncle saw the phone: "Where did it come from?"

He replied: "I earned it by selling mineral water bottles."

The uncle opened his eyes wide, took the phone over, and said, "Yes, I've grown up, I can make money." After looking at it for a while, he put his phone in his pocket: "Study hard, this... I confiscate it first, children should not play with their phones."

Liu Ruoyu stood there for a while and walked back to his room.

There is no shortage of houses in the countryside. He lives alone in a very small and dark room, and has not been decorated much, with gray walls and concrete floors. He sat silently on the bed for a while, and his clenched fists slowly loosened.

As a result, a few months later, when he graduated from junior high school, one day, his uncle and his aunt made a table of pretty sumptuous dishes, and he poured him a glass of rice wine.

My aunt smiled as usual, like a vulgar flower, and said, "Our family Ruoyu has grown up so big, and can earn money to buy a mobile phone by herself. She is really capable."

My uncle clinked a cup with him and seemed generous: "Don't do it!"

Liu Ruoyu held the small wine glass and drank it all in one go.
