On the morning of New Year's Eve, Grandpa Song, who lives next door, shouted in the yard, asking the Xie family to answer the phone. Xie Ying got up, put on a cotton jacket, and rushed to the yard. She shouted: "Song
Grandpa, whose phone number is it?”
"Your second uncle called."
Xie Ying suddenly became depressed.
She stood in the yard blankly, but the door of the main hall was suddenly knocked open, as if a reckless lion was whistling past her. When Xie Ying turned her head, Xie Chong had already rushed out of the door, and grandparents shouted behind her:
"You should at least put on your coat!"
When his parents called, Xie Chong jumped out of the quilt, without even wearing a coat, and ran to his neighbor's house in his autumn clothes and pants. Xie Ying said, "Hmph! He also said that he didn't kiss his parents!"
A few minutes later, grandpa and Xie Chong returned home together, completely different from the agile lion just now. Xie Chong seemed to have changed someone. It was like a lion who failed to feed, so hungry that he couldn't raise his head, and was full of frustration.
.
No need to ask, it is definitely not good news. Uncle and aunt should not come back for the New Year.
Xie Chong sat on the steps at the door of the main hall and said melancholy: "Now I am in the same sympathy as you."
"Don't be sad." Xie Ying comforted: "Uncle and aunt are just not coming back for the time being. When the matter is handled, you will still be a family of three. Unlike me, even my mother is almost gone."
Xie Qingyun has her own selfishness. She doesn't want Xie Ying to keep looking for her mother, because she will feel a strong sense of betrayal. Xie Ying grows up so old, she is the one who takes on the role of mother. She has given her entire youth for Xie Ying.
But she did not emphasize these to Xie Ying, and she did not want Xie Ying to feel the burden because it was because she was the one who took the initiative to give, and no one forced or asked her to do so.
"Xiaoying!" Xie Qingyun said: "I will take you to buy a schoolbag today!"
Xie Ying said unhappily: "Let me take me to buy it when you get your salary! Besides, it's New Year's Eve, it's all over the place, and there is no place to visit."
"Then I'll take you out for a walk, too." Xie Qingyun insisted: "I've been tired for a year and want to go out for a walk-Xie Chong, are you going together?"
"No." Xie Chong refused simply and neatly: "I want to go to my second brother's house."
This "Second Brother" was a little more cordial than Xie Ying's call.
Since Zhou Kexing returned, the boys in this area have the opportunity to get close to their idols and wander around the door of Zhou's house every day. With the blessing of two good friends, Xie Chong can enter and exit the Zhou family without any scruples. Zhou Kexing is completely
I don't want to play with these children, but he has a good temper and never drives them away. He deals with their strange problems with the greatest patience.
What Xie Chong envies most is Zhou Kexing's skills. There is a broken sandbag hanging in the Zhou family's yard, full of traces of Zhou Kexing's punches and kicks. Even after the winter vacation, Zhou Kexing did not relax his requirements for himself. Every day
I went to the primary school playground to run, rotated in a fancy way on the horizontal bar, and did not forget to practice boxing hard when I got home.
Hua Tianlong shouted a hundred times every day to ask Zhou Kexing to teach him kung fu. Zhou Kexing generally ignored him because he knew that Hua Tianlong was just repeating it unconsciously like a catchphrase. Back then, my grandfather took a few little boys.
When practicing boxing in the martial arts school, Wang Haochuan, who was quiet and quiet, could still hold on. Hua Tianlong couldn't hold on for even a day, so he cried and wanted to go home.
Zhou Kexing noticed the flames twitching in Xie Chong's eyes and also saw his enthusiasm. He took the initiative to ask Xie Chong if he wanted to learn fist and foot skills? Xie Chong nodded honestly and said, "But if you want to learn it, you have to.
If you learn seriously, you have to have a master teach you well, otherwise I won’t be able to learn it.”
Zhou Kexing liked this little boy who seemed a little knowledgeable and promised him that if he really wanted to learn martial arts, he could tell his grandfather and let Xie Chong go to the martial arts school for free.
Xie Chong felt itchy, but he refused to admit it easily: "I... want to learn football more. As for martial arts, I have to discuss with my parents, and they may not let me learn it."
"I've said it all, let you learn for free!"
"That won't work. You have to pay tuition when you become a disciple."
Zhou Kexing laughed: "You kid is really interesting. But even if you give my grandfather money, he won't want it."
"Why?"
"As long as someone who has been kind to the Zhou family, he will be anxious if he gives him money. Like Hua Tianlong and Wang Haochuan, my grandfather sent him to a martial arts school to study. If you force him to pay, he will beat him up.
you."
Mr. Zhou is a martial arts practitioner. If he hits someone... Xie Chong shuddered and shivered. Mr. Zhou’s way of giving back to his benefactor is really unique.
Xie Chong didn't quite understand. Do families like the Zhou family still need the help of these ordinary neighbors? He asked foolishly: "What have the neighbors helped?"
Zhou Kexing laughed and said, "I'm embarrassed to talk about this. Go home and ask your grandpa!"
Xie Chong played in the alley for a longer time. He could see Zhou Kewei at different times almost every day. Every time he saw Zhou Kewei coming back sweating profusely, he would feel anxious-
Future pilots are all working hard to exercise their physical fitness. How can he, the future big star, let him go?
So he decided to follow Zhou Kexing to run, or play basketball, and go around the parallel bars, and he insisted on doing these "serious" sports.
The first time I played basketball with Zhou Kexing was on the playground of Donghai Experimental Primary School. After being tired of playing, several people sat on the side of the playground to rest. Zhou Kexing asked, "Will you go to school here in the future?"
"Unsure." Xie Chong said truthfully: "If I play football, I might go to other cities and board in schools."
"Oh... Playing football, it's great to find a few fans in a small place like the city. There's really no place to teach children to play football."
Xie Chong just developed feelings for this place. If he wanted to leave here, he would definitely be sad for a while. Zhou Kexing said as if he was talking to himself: "Sports and art are both expensive. When I was a child, I wanted to do it.
As for the accordion, but the family is in trouble, I gave up this idea myself.”
"Aren't your family very rich?"
Zhou Kexing smiled bitterly and said, "My relatives have money, but it doesn't mean my family has money. My brother and I have never learned any special skills. I study and go to school honestly, and I don't have so many ideas. You are different from us, you have been young.
I have come into contact with a wider world, and my dreams are different from ours.”
"Then, second brother, don't you think I'm just messing around?"
"Doing around? It is a good thing for children to have dreams. However, if you fail to play football, you should not be bad at going to school here, just like my brother and I. Study hard and have a bright future." Zhou Kexing
He said: "I can't guarantee the rest, at least this school is very good."
"This school?" Xie Chong's eyes were a four-story building with a U-shaped shape. It looked very new, but the facilities were definitely not as good as his previous school, and there would be no concert halls, museums, libraries, and gymnasiums like this.
The playground has not been fixed yet, there is no plastic track, and if it rains, there will be mud everywhere.
"Don't look at the simplicity of this school, but as long as you go to school here, you can feel its goodness." Zhou Kexing said confidently: "Because my brother and I both graduated from here, I have the right to speak. More importantly,
Yes, my dad is the principal here, and it must be very good here."
