Summer vacation has just begun, it is midsummer in July, there is no cloud in the blue sky, the sun is hot, mercilessly burning everything on the earth, and the soil in the ground is about to smoke.
The big official poplar tree outside the house seemed to have been wilted by the sun, and the green leaves hung weakly, as if they were sick.
The weather was swelteringly hot, there was not a breath of wind, and the thick air seemed to be frozen.
The big black-backed wolfdog next door was lying on the ground, with its nostrils flaring and its tongue sticking out to dissipate heat.
Jiang Ning didn't stay at the door to bask in the sun. He moved the pony into the house and placed it in the shade at the door.
Xue Yuantong would enjoy it. She was leaning on the recliner, holding up a comic book, and was reading with gusto.
On the square stool at hand, there are two glasses of honey lemonade, with ice cubes floating on the water.
Xue Yuantong held up the cup. In such a hot weather, taking a big sip of ice water made his body fresh and plump.
Xue Yuantong was full of emotions, "It's great that I don't have to go to school~"
She continued to read the comic book. After a few minutes, she stretched out on the recliner and wanted to drink water again. She glanced at her cup and found that half of the lemonade was missing. The other cup belonged to Jiang Ning, only
A little bit less.
She peeked at Jiang Ning and found that he was holding a book and concentrating on it.
Xue Yuantong's childish eyes flickered, and when she was thinking, she looked a bit naive.
When Jiang Ning wasn't paying attention, she touched Jiang Ning's water glass, pretended to be natural and took a big sip, then put it back down as if nothing had happened.
Seeing that Jiang Ning had less lemonade than she did, Xue Yuantong felt balanced.
However, everything she did had been seen through by Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning didn't argue with her, took out her phone and replied to the newly received friend request: "Who are you?"
The other person's profile picture is that of a rebellious Harley Quinn with twin tails.
Jiang Ning rarely adds friends nowadays. With his current life, useless communication is not necessary for him.
On the other end, in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the lake-view flat floor near Xuehua Lake in Yuzhou, Wei Zishan was blowing on the air conditioner, lying on the long sofa, and replied quickly with both hands:
"I'm the girl from the barbecue stall last night."
Next to her, Li Shi was sitting on the edge of the sofa, her slender white legs exposed under her hot pants. Her legs were beautiful and white.
"Zishan, are you really going to join him? I admit that he is very skilled, but he is not that handsome, right?" Li Shi didn't understand. Jiang Ning taught a few gangsters a lesson last night. He is handsome, but who is Wei Zishan?
ah?
Your home is in Shanghai, which is the most prosperous city in the country. It is in line with international standards. What kind of people your age can’t see?
What's more, Wei Zishan has been abroad since she was a child, and her horizons are far wider than others.
Wei Zishan sent the application again, and she said excitedly: "It's not a question of whether he is handsome or not, he is that kind of very unique..."
Wei Zishan wanted to describe it, but her Chinese was not good. After thinking for a while, she couldn't think of how to describe it, so she said: "He is different from others. I want to see another side of him."
Li Shi couldn't understand Wei Zishan's thoughts at all.
In the spacious living room, Lin Zida was holding a game controller and playing a racing game on the huge TV. Next to him, playing games with him were Zhuang Jianhui and Yuan Lin.
Zhuang Jianhui flipped Yuan Lin over with a turtle shell and said, "This racing game is so fun!"
Lin Zida: "The new Mario Kart 8 for Wiiu console has much better graphics than the previous generation, and there are a lot more maps."
He maintained his leading position and was the best in the race.
After Jiang Ning from Heba received the application, he recalled the scene and replied: "Which girl are you?"
Wei Zishan was stunned when she saw the reply. He didn't remember her?
Think of her stunning makeup, her unique gray braids, her strapless vest... No matter where she goes, Wei Zishan should be the most eye-catching presence in the crowd.
As a result, Jiang Ning ignored him.
'well!'
Wei Zishan bit her lip, feeling annoyed. Then she put on a charming smile and said, 'Okay, he is indeed the man I admire!'
She described her appearance.
Jiang Ning: "Oh, is it you?"
Wei Zishan was overjoyed that he had indeed remembered her. She was so happy that she reached out and pinched two cucumber-flavored potato chips and stuffed them into her mouth.
Li Shi saw that the food she ate was very delicious, and she couldn't accept it. Cucumber-flavored potato chips, what a strange smell they had!
But Wei Zishan said she liked the clear smell.
Wei Zishan ate potato chips, drank Coca-Cola, and waited quietly for Jiang Ning's reply. He must have been so happy when he saw a beauty like her joining him!
After five minutes, Wei Zishan still didn't receive a reply. She bit the potato chips louder, almost wanting to bite them, and a few words popped out of her throat:
'well!'
'You don't agree, right? I like men who are hard to get if they have personality!'
His reaction aroused Wei Zishan's rebellious character. There is no man in this world that she can't get!
Wei Zishan: "Brother Jiang Ning, you were so fierce last night. Someone recorded a video of you."
Jiang Ning laughed. Every time he made a move, the power of thunder and lightning overflowed, blocking electronic devices to prevent people around him from posting videos to the Internet. It was strange that she could take a video, it was absolutely impossible.
He said: "Oh."
Wei Zishan took every step: "I'll send it to you."
Jiang Ning: "No need, I didn't play well last night."
"Do you think he's handsome? Does your brother know martial arts?" Wei Zishan continued the strategy.
Jiang Ning: "It's not martial arts."
"What is that?" Wei Zishan asked. Whether he was talking about Taekwondo, Sanda or something else, Wei Zishan could find topics for all of them. With her family background, she could easily introduce Jiang Ning to top boxers and athletes.
Jiang Ning replied: "Immortal magic."
Wei Zishan was silent for a while: "...Brother, you are joking."
…
With nothing to do, Jiang Ning chatted with her for a while, and finally was too lazy to reply to the message, so he put the phone aside. He did not agree to Wei Zishan's friend application.
As the sun sets, the sun is no longer as hot as noon.
Xue Yuantong had already slept. When she woke up, she rubbed her eyes in confusion and went back to wash her face.
Then he ran next door to play with Chu Chu. Chu Chu had been on vacation for the past two days and studied at home every day. As soon as he walked in, Xue Yuantong found that she was still studying.
He ran back again and went to Jiang Ning's house to get the tablet.
"Jiang Ning, the guy next door to us came back yesterday." She was talking while playing a game. On the iPad screen, a person carrying a jetpack was flying forward.
"Who is Dongdong?" Jiang Ning asked. He opened his consciousness, scanned along the bungalow, and found a chubby black boy.
The boy is about six or seven years old, 1.4 meters tall and weighs more than 90 kilograms. He is dark and muscular.
Xue Yuantong curled his lips: "A naughty kid, uneducated!"
Jiang Ning: "Oh?"
If Xue Yuantong can tell that the other party is uneducated, then he probably really is uneducated.
"Jiang Ning, if Dongdong messes with you, don't beat him too hard. His grandma is unreasonable." Xue Yuantong warned, she understood Jiang Ning's temper.
That kid Dongdong is very bad, worse than the worst kid in Xue Yuantong's village. Not only is he rude, he is also good at crying and making trouble, which is extremely annoying.
In the past, he came from home to play. When he came to the house, he looked around for snacks. The key was that he tore open the snacks and refused to eat them, leaving waste all over the floor.
One time when Xue Yuantong was not at home, he took away the doll that his mother bought for him. When he returned it, it was extremely dirty. Xue Yuantong asked Grandma Dongdong to question it, but she said, "Isn't it just a rag doll?"
From then on, Xue Yuantong never let him come to his house again.
Fortunately, Dongdong only went back to the bungalow for summer vacation, otherwise Xue Yuantong would still have to be on guard against him.
"Don't worry, I don't care like a child." Jiang Ning said, he is not like Zhang Chi in his class.
Xue Yuantong nodded assuredly: "That's good."
As the sun went down and the temperature dropped, the man next door went out with a bowl of herbal tea. Uncle Zhang, the pig butcher, took his black-backed wolfdog with him, still off the leash.
But the black-backed wolf dog passed by Xue Yuantong's house and avoided it at a distance. Uncle Zhang kicked the dog, and the dog avoided it even further.
"Hey, you beast!" Uncle Zhang scolded.
Xue Chuchu studied for a day, stood at the door and looked at the fields in the distance, relaxing her eyes.
She turned around and came to Tongtong's house to watch her play games.
The two take turns playing the game.
After a while, a chubby little boy ran out. The little boy was very dark, very dark, with a round face, a big mouth, and small eyes, which was not good-looking.
He was running in front, and a fat old lady was chasing after him, shouting: "Dongdong, Dongdong, slow down!"
Dongdong ran to the door of Xue Yuantong's house, first looked at Jiang Ning, who didn't recognize him, then looked at Tongtong, and finally noticed Xue Chuchu.
The five or six-year-old boy could tell the difference between beauty and ugliness. He looked at Chu Chu and ran up to him with his hand stretched out:
"Hug, sister!"
Before Chu Chu could react, Xue Yuantong looked wary and quickly pulled Chu Chu behind him, staring at Dongdong motionless.
The year before last, her mother told her not to play with Dongdong, as the child's hands were dishonest. Xue Yuantong kept this in mind, how could she let Chuchu hold him?
Dongdong saw Xue Yuantong's attitude and saw that his beautiful sister was unwilling to hug him.
He immediately took out the slingshot in his hand and shouted wildly:
"Xue Yuantong, you fatherless man, do you want to be beaten?"
He spoke harshly, pulled the rubber band of his slingshot, and pointed it at Xue Yuantong.
Although this kid is only six or seven years old, he weighs 90 kilograms, which is heavier than an ordinary girl. He is also dark and strong, and his fighting ability is not low in a real fight.
Xue Yuantong was scolded and became so angry that he immediately shouted:
"If you are so crazy, my mother will beat you when you come back tonight!"
Dongdong was not afraid and stretched the slingshot in his hand longer: "I'll let my grandma hit your mom!"
Xue Yuantong was furious.
There are no men in her family who are fighting, and even little boys dare to bully her at will.
Dongdong grabbed the slingshot and was about to hit someone. The child didn't know the consequences, so he aimed at Xue Yuantong's face. If the slingshot hit someone, the consequences would be disastrous.
At this time, Jiang Ning reached out and grabbed his slingshot.
After looking around for a moment, he said, "What a broken slingshot."
Just throw it far away.
Dongdong was empty-handed and had not yet reacted to the reality that the slingshot had been taken away. Two seconds later, he shouted:
"You dare to steal my slingshot?"
Jiang Ning looked at him and straightened up. His height of 1.8 meters had a mass crushing effect on his height of 1.4 meters:
"Child, you are not convinced when I heard that you are not convinced?"
Jiang Ning clenched her fist and shook it in front of him.
Dongdong's expression changed from arrogance to fear, and he turned around dejectedly to pick up the slingshot.
Jiang Ning smiled disdainfully: "Tch."
Xue Chuchu was happy when she saw Jiang Ning's attitude, but also found it a bit funny. It turned out that he would also bully children.
Xue Yuantong felt much more relaxed. She had lived here for several years and knew how hateful Dongdong was. He was a complete bully.
Now that he has Jiang Ning, if he dares to be arrogant again, he will hire Jiang Ning to beat him to tears.
After being intimidated, Dongdong stopped harassing him for the time being. He held up his slingshot in the open space and aimed at the man next door and the sparrows on the tree.
Uncle Zhang, who was watching from the side, smacked his lips, wondering why Jiang Ning didn't give the boy a good beating.
Dongdong's grandma is a crazy woman, and she might cause a scene.
Uncle Zhang suffered a loss at the hands of Jiang Ning and lost a pig's tail. He was extremely depressed.
Without the naughty kid to disturb him, Xue Yuantong continued to play games on his iPad.
After a while, Dongdong came around again.
He stretched out his head and watched for two minutes. He thought the game was very fun and came up to grab Xue Yuantong's iPad: "Play with me for a while!"
Jiang Ning frowned, he was really uneducated, no wonder Tongtong hated him.
He moved his hand forward to block and flicked, and Dongdong's snatching movement stopped immediately. He took two steps back and sat down on the ground.
The fat old lady came over quickly and asked, "Hey, my little darling, what's wrong with you?"
With his grandma to rely on, Dongdong pointed at Xue Yuantong and shouted at the top of his lungs: "I want to play with the tablet, I want to play with the tablet!"
Xue Yuantong ignored him.
When Dongdong didn't respond, he immediately howled and rolled on the ground.
When Uncle Zhang who was nearby saw it, he felt that there was something good to watch. He knew that with Jiang Ning's character, he would definitely have a fight with Dongdong. No, he didn't even run away this time, just to watch the show.
"Xiao Xue, isn't it just a tablet? Why don't you let Dongdong play with it? What will it do to you?" the fat old lady accused.
If you can raise such a grandson, don't expect him to be very good as a person.
Xue Yuantong didn't give it to him, and the year before last, Dongdong was making trouble with his mother's Nokia phone. Her mother gave it to her at the time, but when she got it back, she actually owed dozens of yuan.
Xue Yuantong felt very sorry for his mother.
Having learned her lesson, how could she make the same mistake again.
Seeing that Xue Yuantong refused, the fat old lady continued to accuse, her saliva splashed out, and Jiang Ning created a barrier and bounced back.
He couldn't stand the old lady's insults, so he said calmly: "This is my tablet."
The fat old lady choked on her words: "Young man, who are you?"
Uncle Zhang explained: "The person who rents Sister Xue's house."
When the fat old lady heard that she was a tenant, she became even more confident: "Give my grandson the tablet to play with, and I'll talk to Xiao Xue and ask her to lower the rent for you."
Xue Chuchu and Xue Yuantong were shocked by her shamelessness.
Jiang Ning waved her hand and said politely: "Get your grandson to stay away, otherwise he will disturb me playing games."
When the fat old lady heard this, she pointed at Jiang Ning's nose and said in a harsh tone: "Why are you talking?"
Dongdong howled: "I want to play with the tablet, I want to play with the tablet!"
When Uncle Zhang saw the two sides quarreling, he laughed "Hey", not thinking it was a big deal, and responded:
"Isn't it just a tablet? Why don't you let Dongdong play with it? You guys are a bit generous."
He patted Dongdong on the shoulder, "Xiaodong, don't cry, I will give you a mobile phone to play with!"
Uncle Zhang took out his Samsung mobile phone and put it in Xiaodong's hand.
Who would have thought that Xiaodong took the phone, slammed it on the ground, and howled: "I want that tablet!"
The force of the fall was so strong that the Samsung phone bounced twice on the ground, with the screen facing upwards and shattered into pieces.
Everyone present saw it.
Xue Chuchu covered her mouth and smiled, Xue Yuantong looked at Uncle Zhang, and Jiang Ning raised the corners of her mouth.
Uncle Zhang's face darkened, and he quickly picked up his phone. When he saw the tragically broken screen, his face jumped.
The fat old lady's expression changed. She knew something was going on and immediately blamed her:
"Xiao Zhang, you put it in my grandson's hands yourself, don't blame Dongdong."
Uncle Zhang: "Fuck your mother!"
five minutes.
Xue Yuantong, Jiang Ning and Chu Chu were sitting at the door drinking ice water.
On the dirt floor at the door, the fat old lady was rolling around, the ground was full of dust and smoky, and the fat old lady kept yelling fierce curses.
"Come and take a look, come out and take a look, a forty-year-old man is arguing with a kid of several years old!"
The fat old lady howled non-stop.
The uncle and Teacher Qian came out to act as peacemakers, but Uncle Zhang didn't ask for compensation, so he felt depressed and sat on the ground in frustration.
"Mom, just wait for me!" Uncle Zhang thought about how to regain his position.
He frowned for a long time and suddenly thought of the hornet's nest under the big poplar tree.
