Cheng Xiaoyu is a native of Meicheng, a county-level city. He lives in Xinglong Village, Longhai Town, Meicheng City. He has an older sister. His parents are pure farmers. They rely on the land to survive droughts and floods every year. Cheng Xiaoyu grew up in the countryside and went to junior high school.
At that time, his family sent him to boarding school in Meicheng City. Rural families tended to favor sons over daughters. The money from the bride price for his sister's early marriage became the expenses for Cheng Xiaoyu's three years of junior high school and the cost of learning a craft in Meicheng after graduation.
In 2003, 19-year-old Cheng Xiaoyu embarked on their "journey of glory" with his two childhood friends. Young people always have some vague dreams. After two years of learning how to repair mobile phones and one year of working with a master, these few years have passed.
The popularization of mobile phones in 2000 gave this industry a so-called future. Cheng Xiaoyu, who was not willing to stay in a small city and was deceived by others, took the small salary he earned with his master for a year and the 3,000 yuan from his family to follow him.
The eldest brother, Xiong Wei, and the second brother, Zhang Sen, left their hometown together and came to the provincial capital to work hard.
The three of them grew up in a small mountain village. The eldest, Xiong Wei, was born in 1983. Before leaving Meicheng, he had been helping the family with farm work. He was a so-called strong laborer in the countryside. His height of 185, black and strong, really matched his surname.
He was supposed to marry a wife and have children at home to continue the peasant life of his ancestors. The family was already preparing to introduce him to a partner. The second son, Zhang Sen, seduced the colorful world outside, which made Cheng Xiaoyu's heart move. At the same time, he also took the pledge that brothers would be blessed and share the same loyalty.
Regardless of the opposition of his family, the eldest brother Xiong Wei followed the two brothers and left the mountain village where their ancestors grew up and entered the metropolis Spring City in the Northeast.
The second child, Zhang Sen, has been cute since he was a child. He is as cute as a silver doll. The longer he gets, the better. He has fair skin and has never done any farm work at home. He also has a sweet mouth. He is usually the most popular in the neighborhood, just like Cheng Xiaoyu.
Born in 1984, they were both born in the same year, month and day. Zhang Sen relied on his words and cleverness to deceive Cheng Xiaoyu and said that he had asked and he was born first, so he was the second brother. Later, Cheng Xiaoyu accidentally learned from his father
I know that I was born a few hours earlier than Zhang Sen at that time, but I had finished kowtowing at this time. Zhang Sen refused to admit it, and Cheng Xiaoyu didn't bother to refute. Anyway, the title "second child" is not that nice.
Zhang Sen had a sister who went out to work and got married in Spring City. Zhang Sen, who seemed to be half a city citizen, had a sense of superiority. It was he who conveyed the beauty of the colorful world to the ears of Xiong Wei and Cheng Xiaoyu.
They packed their bags and conquered the world, saying that they would never come back if their heroic words and feats were not successful. Only when they arrived in Spring City did the three of them realize that the world is not so easy to work hard for, and life is not so easy to mess around with.
Zhang Sen was lucky. With the care and arrangements of his sister, he entered a beauty and hairdressing school for short-term training. However, Xiong Wei and Cheng Xiaoyu had to fend for themselves. All Zhang Sen could do was to beg his sister to help them temporarily work at the construction site.
Xiong Wei found a job. It was okay. It was not difficult to do it with all his strength. Cheng Xiaoyu was the darling of the family. His elder sister loved her parents very much. She had not experienced any blessings since she was a child, but she had not endured any hardships. She couldn't stand it in a few days.
I want to return to my hometown in Meicheng.
Four years later, Cheng Xiaoyu felt like a blink of an eye, it was 2007. At first, he went back because Zhang Sen said that those who couldn't get along were cowards. He stayed and rented a small shop in
In this university town, I started my old business of repairing mobile phones. At that time, I moved all of Xiong Wei's money here, which made the boss work at the construction site for nearly half a year before he got familiar with Spring City and found a new job.
Four years ago, when I first worked at the Daewoo mobile phone repair shop, it was the time when freshmen were entering school. Cheng Xiaoyu experienced four years of college life with them. Although the shop was renovated from an old-fashioned four-story red brick building, it occupies an excellent location in the university town.
, all the residents on the first floor have converted their homes into stores. Although it is not a main street, it is close to the university town, and the rent is very expensive. Cheng Xiaoyu has not saved much money in the past four years, and can barely make ends meet, but finally
I have gained a foothold in this city, but at the same time I have lost a group of peers. Some of them will enter society from a higher starting point, some will become old people who cannot adapt to society, and some will have high ambitions and low abilities and will find it difficult to integrate into society.
Cheng Xiaoyu's life remains the same. He repairs his increasingly worthless mobile phone, downloads some ringtones, wraps it up, and sells some accessories. Occasionally, he uses the burner on a second-hand computer to burn some Korean drama CDs and rents them to female students in the university.
We produce some 'action movies' for the beasts that are everywhere in the university, and we also open a small home video room in the evening to make some extra money for students who don't like to spend the night in the dormitory.
When he opens his eyes every morning, Cheng Xiaoyu will tell himself that you should be satisfied with your current life. At least you can enjoy the fresh cabbage in the city instead of living in a small mountain village with a yellow-faced woman who works in the fields all day.
lifetime.
The dream I had last night was quite interesting. It seemed like it had some kind of special function. I can’t remember clearly. Why is it that grandma’s dreams are always vague and I can’t remember them firmly?
"Huh?" Cheng Xiaoyu shook his arm. It's no different. What's wrong? His left hand!
Cheng Xiaoyu handed his left hand wrapped in bandage and gauze to his eyes, shook it up and down, and then pinched it with his right hand uncertainly, but it didn't hurt.
Weird things happen every year, especially this year. Cheng Xiaoyu untied the knots of the gauze and took off the gauze and bandages in circles, revealing the backs of his hands and arms that looked a little scary yesterday.
The skin has grown back, and the most important thing is that there is no slight pain at all after the skin breaks and bleeds.
"What's going on?" Cheng Xiaoyu couldn't understand, and there was no time for him to continue thinking. The sound of the rolling shutter door being pulled up was heard. In surprise, Cheng Xiaoyu quickly put on baggy beach shorts and a large T-shirt, pulled his slippers and opened the door.
Arrived outside.
The thick smell of smoke lingered, the coffee table on the ground next to the computer on the maintenance station was full of beer bottles and eaten debris, the TV was full of snowflakes, and the most intense scenes of the island nation's action movies were frozen on the computer, and the rolling shutter door
When it was pulled away from the outside, dazzling sunlight shone in, and the smoke had no way to escape under the sunlight.
"These beasts have smoked so many cigarettes." Cheng Xiaoyu was quite accustomed to all this. It was just extra money at night. Twenty yuan was placed on the table to pay for these guys to spend the night here.
It’s hard to make money, so all resources must be used.
The old-fashioned house, the so-called big house, has a door opened. When you enter the door, there are several plastic stools with backrests and a transparent round coffee table. Inside is Cheng Xiaoyu's maintenance station and computer desk, and a variety of mobile phone cases are hung on the wall.
, hanging decorations. Under the wall parallel to the door is a set of old-fashioned sofas and coffee tables. Under the corner of the sofa on Cheng Xiaoyu's left and right is a 25-inch old-fashioned TV and DVD player. The edge of the sofa leads to the balcony.
In the area between the kitchen, bathroom and the door passage of the house itself, there is a small door next to Cheng Xiaoyu, and inside is a small bedroom of only five or six square meters.
The store house converted from an old residential house has a small commercial area but is fully equipped, suitable for both office and residential use, especially for people like Cheng Xiaoyu. In the past four years, many animals have tried to borrow Cheng Xiaoyu's bedroom to spend the night with their girlfriends and female sex partners.
They were all rejected by Cheng Xiaoyu, which also caused the number of his fair-weather friends to drop sharply.
"My God, Cheng Xiaoyu, did you receive a group of hungry animals again last night?" The rolling shutter door was opened halfway, and a figure that was more horizontally developed than Cheng Xiaoyu showed his majesty with his back to the sun.
She sounds like she wants to commit a crime and looks like she wants to commit suicide. This is the most appropriate description of the girl in front of me. She is a little over 1.5 meters tall, wears a pair of high-definition glasses, and weighs up to 150 pounds. She is a pure model of the earth.
, but she still pursues fashion. She keeps her hair short and energetic, and dyes it yellow. There is always no shortage of fashionable items on her body, especially mobile phones and MP3 players. She is constantly pursuing updates. The most unacceptable thing is undoubtedly
With a figure like this, it’s normal for you to wear loose clothes, but this fat girl named Wang Peipei likes tight-fitting and revealing clothes. Now it’s a lot of fun, and the rate of return is increased, but the rate of return is not praise, but ugliness
criticism.
Cheng Xiaoyu and Wang Peipei have known each other for three years. Wang Peipei is one year younger than Cheng Xiaoyu and is a junior student at a nearby electric power university. She has changed her mobile phones no less than five or six times in the past three years, and each one requires several repairs from Cheng Xiaoyu.
Reply, it was either water damage or the display screen was broken, or the buttons were pressed too hard. In short, it was Wang Peipei alone. Cheng Xiaoyu spent several years reviewing and learning to repair the common faults of mobile phones, and every time Wang Peipei eliminated the phone, she would
Sold to Cheng Xiaoyu at a low price, and the two of them were in a slightly fat world and a super fat world. Cheng Xiaoyu, who would not make Wang Peipei feel inferior, became one of Wang Peipei's friends. Yes, friends. Wang Peipei's cheerful personality allowed her to put aside her appearance flaws.
There is a lot of cover-up, she has no shortage of men, she does not have a boyfriend but she has many male friends, and she has a carefree personality and is always adventurous, so the words she said before do not matter to her at all.
When Cheng Xiaoyu got up, he knew that the person who could pull up the rolling shutter door without authorization must be an acquaintance. The group of animals would leave at dawn and the rolling shutter door would be pulled down. There was nothing valuable in the small store, and no one stole the big things. You can steal them if you want.
If you don't leave, there are neighbors who have been there for several years. They have small items such as mobile phones and valuable accessories. Cheng Xiaoyu has a small safe, which can't be opened without any big movement if it is installed directly on the wall with expansion bolts.
Seeing that it was Wang Peipei, she was not polite. She took a large wastebasket from the balcony and a broom in one hand, and began to clean up the mess in the room. (To be continued)
