my summer

After the revenge incident, Xia Zhi and I became friends who talked about everything.

Perhaps the friendship between boys is so straightforward and simple, and they stand on the united front from a hostile position in minutes.Of course, this mainly lies in my changes.

Dad has strict regulations on our summer homework, how many pages of homework must be completed every day before we can watch TV or go out to play.Some time ago, we all did our own thing, and basically spent the whole morning on homework.

Well now, we have discovered a new continent.

After careful comparison, I found that my summer homework is exactly the same as Xia Zhi's, and the progress of completion is similar.So we decided through friendly negotiation that the first half of the daily homework should be done by me, and the second half by Xia Zhi, and then we would copy the remaining half from each other's homework.In this way, time is greatly saved.

We are all overjoyed at the discovery of this new continent.

However, Xia Zhi's homework writing speed is faster than mine. Every time he finishes first, he has to wait for a while before I can copy the homework.

"Why don't I give you a few more pages, so it's faster." I suggested.

"No, just get an average score, and I'll just wait for you." Xia Zhi vetoed it.

The corner of my mouth twitched, and I continued to bow my head to do my homework in silence, and I only cheered myself up in my heart, to do arithmetic faster, to write faster, to be as fast as the summer solstice...

What do you do after finishing your homework ahead of time?Of course I watched TV series.

There is only a small black and white TV at home, without a remote control, and I have to run to the TV to change channels.As humble as it was, that was our main source of fun at the time.Every summer vacation, there will always be a few classic serials that are played repeatedly.

"I want to see the white lady." I said.

"But I want to see Monkey King." Xia Zhi said.

"Then how?" I asked.

"How about we use rock-paper-scissors to decide who wins." Xia Zhi said.

"Okay." I nodded.

Luck is still so unreliable, when you want it to come, it just doesn't come.

I had no choice but to sit on the sofa side by side with Xia Zhi, and watch Sun Wukong beat the Bone Demon three times in Journey to the West.

After watching one episode, Xia Zhi walked to the TV and switched to the channel where the White Snake was played.Then he sat back on the sofa and smiled at me, "Look."

Next to the cement factory is a vocational and technical school. Every time we pass by, the gate is always tightly closed, and there is not even a grandpa who is a gatekeeper.

In our opinion, that school is a representative of mystery, and there seems to be endless secrets hidden in the gate.We are very curious about this.

One afternoon, after waking up from a nap, Xia Zhi pulled me up and ran to the side of the school wall, "Look!"

Close to the wall, there is a tall magnolia tree.

"Do you want to..." I made a climbing motion.

Xia Zhi laughed twice, and took the lead to climb up the tree trunk.After a few moves, I climbed onto a branch as high as the wall, sat down and looked down at me.

I looked up and saw that the wall was not particularly high, and the tree trunks were easy to climb. Basically, there were tree branches or tree holes along the way.I've never climbed a tree before, but seeing Xia Zhi climb up it so easily, my heart itch.No matter, I want to go up to the top.

I hugged the trunk and started to climb like Xia Zhi.

"Be careful, step on it firmly before changing hands." Xia Zhi reminded.

I think my motor cells are quite developed, and my limbs are well coordinated, so I climbed to the summer solstice position in a short time.Xia Zhi stretched out his hand to hold me, and I sat on the branch smoothly.It's just that the branches are not very long, and the summer solstice has already sat, and now with me, the two of us are almost close together.

"This way." Xia Zhi moved the branches and leaves to the side, motioning me to look into the school.

I leaned down slightly, fell into his arms, and looked ahead.A huge playground was spread out. The playground was a large piece of green grass. There was a rusty football goal frame on the left and right sides. The surrounding track was gray-yellow. I don't know what kind of material it was.

"The playground is so big." I couldn't help sighing.

"Well, yes," Xia Zhi said excitedly, "It would be great if I could play football on that playground."

I looked at him and asked, "Do you like playing football?"

"I like it, but I don't have much chance to play." Xia Zhi's expression darkened, "Our school doesn't even have a big playground, only a few basketball courts."

"Playing football doesn't have to be on the big playground," I said, "Pang Hu has the ball, and I will ask him to borrow it another day, and we will go to the basketball court in the factory to play."

"...Playing football on the basketball court?" Xia Zhi was a little surprised.

"What's wrong? Where is it not to kick..." I thought for a while, and continued, "Or go to the place where you learn to bike, there are more children, and they will come to grab the ball with you."

Xia Zhi chuckled, "You are not like a child, are you an old child?"

"I'm talking about a little kid, I'm a big kid." I said seriously.

Xia Zhi kept laughing, and I felt the branches under my buttocks shaking.I hugged his waist tightly and shouted, "Stop laughing, I'm going to fall if you laugh any more."

His laughter still didn't stop, and along with the laughter echoed in his ears, there was also the ups and downs of Cicada's cry.

Later, I really asked Fat Tiger to borrow the ball, but he was always stingy, and he refused to borrow it anyway, saying that only when he wanted to play ball, he would reluctantly bring us to play together.Now he doesn't want to play, so we don't have to either.

I went home disconsolately, and told Xia Zhi what had happened. Xia Zhi's expression was obviously disappointed for a moment, and then disappeared soon. "It's okay, then I won't play." He said.

During dinner, I asked my dad about buying football. Dad was a little surprised: "Football? Don't you like playing football?"

"I didn't like it before, but now I do. Dad, you can buy one for me." I begged my dad, "Besides, Xia Zhi also likes to play football. If we buy it, we can play together."

"Okay, okay, auntie will go buy it tomorrow." Auntie Sun said.

I was stunned, this was not my original intention, so I quickly said: "Aunt Sun, let my dad buy it, he is better at picking."

Dad thought about it, and agreed, "Okay, I'll go to the store some other day."

I secretly exchanged a glance with Xia Zhi, his eyes were full of unconcealable happiness.My mood is also high.

Two days later, Dad bought the football back home, black and white is very beautiful, "Thank you Dad!" I yelled and took the ball and handed it to Xia Zhi, "Here, take it, let's play football go!"

Xia Zhi happily took the ball, put his hands in front of his chest, and ran outside excitedly, "Follow up!"

Dad's advice came from behind: "Don't play for too long, we will have dinner soon."

We ran all the way to the basketball court in the factory. It was just after get off work and it was not past meal time. The court was empty, only the slanting footprints of the setting sun.

"Yangyang, watch the ball!" Xia Zhi ran to the other end of the court, put the ball under his feet, and kicked it straight in my direction.I bent down and made a pious gesture of greeting, but unfortunately, I didn't receive it.The ball flew off my left foot.

I cheerfully ran to chase the ball, and without looking at it, I kicked hard in the direction of Xia Zhi.Unexpectedly, he caught the ball and kicked it back very accurately.

I suddenly became a little nervous. If I miss the ball directly, wouldn't I lose face?How can I say that I am also an older brother, it would be embarrassing to lose to my younger brother...

Fortunately, the speed of this ball was significantly slower than the previous one. I concentrated my attention and once again made a pious greeting gesture.Hey!so close!Almost missed again.I looked at the kicked ball and jumped up and down excitedly.

Xia Zhi stood firmly on the opposite side a few meters away, stepped on the ball, put his hands on his hips, and smiled brightly at me.

Just when we were having fun, Fat Tiger brought one of his little followers, Bin Zai, over.

"Hey, Zhang Zhuyang, you have the ball, that's just right, let's kick it together." Fat Tiger shouted.

"Don't you have the ball yourself? Why are you still kicking me?" I held the ball in both hands and asked him.

He stared at the ball in my hand, his eyes sparkled, as if his saliva was about to flow down in a second, "Is this your new ball? The color is so beautiful, it must be fun to play, right?"

I leaned the ball into my arms and said warily, "My dad just bought it, of course it's new."

"Then let's play together." Fat Tiger said and stretched out his hand to grab the ball, and Bin Zai next to him also wanted to put his hand on my ball.

I hugged the ball tightly with both hands and took two steps back.

Seeing that I didn't cooperate, Fat Tiger's expression darkened immediately, "Zhang Zhuyang, why are you so stingy? You can't do anything to your ball after playing for a while?"

"Yangyang, we're going home for dinner. Your father was calling just now." Xia Zhi ran to my side at some point, took the ball away from my arms, put it under my left armpit, and picked me up with his right hand. Then smiled at Fat Tiger: "I'm sorry, we are going home, let's play ball together next time."

After finishing speaking, without looking at the expressions of those two people, he dragged me straight home.

After walking for a while, I gently shook the hand I was holding with him, and whispered, "I don't want to give the ball to Fat Tiger, I just play with his ball."

Xia Zhi also shook his hands, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's play with our balls by ourselves, without taking them."

"Did my dad really come over and ask us to eat?" I asked.

"No, I lied to them," Xia Zhi said, "but I should be eating soon, I'm so hungry."

"I'm hungry too." I said.

He looked at me, I looked at him, and then the two of them rushed home like crazy, like two winds.
