call me bro

Liang Yao, who was envied by Ge Liang, was studying at "Xinbei High School", but he lived like a year in Xinbei High School.He has lived in Mo's family for three years and has not experienced any rich life. He feels that the difference between Mo Yingtong and himself is that he has a mobile phone, various latest electronic products, many expensive decorations, and many new Clothes, there are babysitters, hair stylists, tutors, drivers and more!He couldn't help being startled at the thought of this!It turns out that there is such a big gap between me and Mo Yingtong in life!It's even bigger than the gap with the classmates he knows now!But why did the classmates he met now make him feel difficult to get along with, and made him feel 'out of place', while he didn't feel any discomfort when he was with Mo Yingtong? ?

It was rare for Liang Yao to think seriously about this question about human nature.He found that Mo Yingtong, like his classmates in Xinbei High School, was born into a wealthy family. The difference was that Mo Yingtong would not talk about where he bought his clothes and how much he spent every day like his classmates. I bought it, what brand of clothes has a new style.

To Liang Yao, all the classmates in Xinbei High School looked like aliens.They seem to be able to remember the models, prices and circulation of various luxury goods, and they can also see the brands of clothes and shoes worn by others at a glance. There are even female students who can judge the fragrance of perfume by smelling the smell of others. type, brand and price.What's more, you can tell which skin care products and cosmetics they use from their faces!Liang Yao couldn't imagine why they had these miraculous skills!In his opinion, those brand names are more difficult to remember than words, and he can't take the exam?Remember those for?And why do you have to pay attention to what brand of clothes other people wear?What do you say tasteful?fashionable?Upscale?Are these important?What is even more puzzling is, how did those female students see that other people wore makeup?Have you drawn it?Why can't he see it?Where is the painting?They talked about travel, luxury cars, parties, celebrities, etc., but they didn't know what Liang Yao was familiar with.Liang Yao thoroughly felt the feeling of being "different". He couldn't integrate into the campus life of Xinbei High School at all.

Fortunately, he is not a boarding student, and he can go home at night if he endures at school during the day.Moreover, he has a kind of obsession with studying. Even though he has never had a good grade in the exam, he has never been sloppy for a second. He is so serious that people around him can't bear to laugh at him. Will be comforted by a large number of people.Therefore, his campus life in Xinbei High School is that he doesn't communicate with his classmates very much, and studies hard. Whenever the test results come out, the classmates who usually don't communicate much will line up to comfort him. The most talked about is : "Don't worry, take your time, it will get better!"

Some students would say: "I don't blame you, it's just that the test questions are too inhumane, and the differences between individuals are not considered at all!" I am comforting myself.

The worst thing is that some classmates even patted Liang Yao on the shoulder and said: "I feel relieved when I see your score. I can go home and tell my mother. In order not to be like you, I still don't want to waste time on study." It's gone." What he said was really reasonable, but Liang Yao couldn't refute it.

Although Mo Yingtong is also in Xinbei High School, the two people's classes are not in the same teaching building, so there is basically no chance to meet each other.After school, Liang Yao took the bus home by himself, and the two of them rarely spent time at home at the same time. After Liang Yao got to know each other well on Nanhua Road, he spent all his time outside doing homework.

Mo Zhonghua had a lot of leisure this year. In the past few years, he was at home for a total of one month a year!But now he goes home almost every night, and stays at home during holidays.When he was not drunk, he was not very talkative, either reading in the study or tinkering with flowers and plants in the yard.He suddenly paid special attention to every meal, not only preparing the ingredients himself, but also cooking the meals himself.He also often takes the two children out to eat food from other countries, but he has a strange habit in the eyes of outsiders, he never lets Liang Yao look at the menu.Every time he read out the names of various dishes and asked Liang Yao if he liked it.Besides, he never mentioned the prices of various items in front of Liang Yao.Not only does he do it himself, but he also asks the people around him to do the same.For this reason, Mo Yingtong was specially warned not to show off anything in front of Liang Yao.

Once when eating western food, Mo Zhonghua asked Liang Yao unintentionally: "What if I can't eat these things in the future?"

Liang Yao thought carefully for a while: "Why can't I eat anymore? This store is not open?"

Mo Yingtong at the side sighed silently.

"Haha", Mo Zhonghua was amused, and then said: "What if it is because you have no money?"

"No money?" Liang Yao was most familiar with no money, and there were too many times when he had no money in his life experience.Therefore, he already had a set of coping methods in mind.

"My grandma once said that as long as you have two hands, you can't starve to death! There is no money to make! Even if you can't eat good food, it's not a problem to be full!".

Mo Zhonghua then asked: "Do you have anything you like? What do you really want? Others have what you don't?"

Liang Yao thought about it carefully before answering: "I don't want anything, I don't need anything!"

From Liang Yao's eyes, Mo Zhonghua could see that he was the same as three years ago, exuding the simplicity and clarity of a rural child, and he hadn't changed at all.

He stretched out his hand to touch Liang Yao's head in relief, and said to Liang Yao with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Fortunately, I didn't teach you badly, so I can feel at ease."

Mo Zhonghua's words confused Liang Yao and made Mo Yingtong very puzzled.

There are still many things that are confusing to Mo Zhonghua. For example, when he was drunk, he suddenly showed less indignation than before.But more regret and helplessness, he often sang Su Shi's words casually.The one with the most frequency is Su Shi's "fixing storm".

"Don't listen to the sound of beating leaves in the forest, why not scream and walk slowly. Bamboo sticks and straw shoes are light than horses, who is afraid? A cloud of mist and rain is your life. The spring wind blows and wakes up, slightly cold, but the hills are slanted to meet you. Looking back. In a bleak place, when you go back, there will be neither wind nor rain."

Liang Yao once asked him what this poem meant.

Mo Zhonghua laughed at himself and replied: "Uncle has never known what it means, and it will be too late when he knows."

"Ah?!" Liang Yao was at a loss.

Mo Yingtong watched thoughtfully.

Liang Yao could not understand Mo Zhonghua's worries. He continued to be busy with his campus life.There are so many and complicated courses in high school that he feels powerless all the time.During this period, he got in touch with Liang Tianci from his hometown. The two childhood friends who hadn’t seen each other for a long time always had endless conversations. Basically, they talked on the phone every night. Liang Yao told Liang Tianci about his life in the ancient capital, Liang Tianci told Liang Yao Changes in my hometown and my own living conditions.

Liang Tianci's family's financial conditions are not very good, so he often has the idea of ​​dropping out of school, he will tell Liang Yao his thoughts, and tell him that he wants to come to the ancient capital to find him.Liang Tianci was the same age as Liang Yao, and it was common for fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys in rural areas to go out to work.

Liang Yao asked about Liang Tianci's grades and found that his grades were not bad.But money is fatal. There are many children in rural areas who do not go to school because of lack of money, and many of them have very good grades.Liang Yao didn't know what advice to give to Liang Tianci, because he knew that even if Liang Tianci barely finished high school, his family still couldn't afford the cost of college.But let him say; 'If you can't read it, don't read it', he can't say it.Several times when Liang Tianci didn't want to tell his family because he had no money, Liang Yao would send him the pocket money he usually saved.Liang Tianci was so moved that he couldn't stop sobbing on the phone. If he didn't use a public phone and there were no classmates waiting in line behind him, he could cry directly.

People who have never been short of money may never understand.People who are always worried about the cost of the next meal, people who think about what to eat to save money.It's not that they don't know the importance of studies, it's not that they don't have ideals, and it's not that they don't have taste.They just pretended not to care, and pretended to be indifferent, but no matter how well they concealed it on the surface, the helplessness and pain in their hearts still existed.Therefore, they know how to be grateful to those who have helped them, and they will even say when recalling the past one day in the future: 'If there was no help from XX, I would not be where I am today'.

Liang Yao's help to Liang Tianci is a great kindness to Liang Tianci, and it is also the motivation to support him to continue his studies.The two foolishly agreed to be good brothers for a lifetime!Liang Yao also promised Liang Tianci that if he ran out of money, he could ask for it from himself, and he had ways to earn money in ancient times!

His method is to hang out at various intersections on Nanhua Road every day, get acquainted with the roadside vendors and the old men who collect waste products, and follow them to earn some small money.Help vendors buy and unload goods, help old men walk around the streets to collect waste products, and sometimes resell small things by myself.He spends almost all his spare time on this. Not only does he not feel tired, but he is also very proud of being able to earn money with his own hands.He had nothing to spend, except to help Liang Tianci, the rest of the money was saved.Later, a very serious incident happened, and he was arrested by the police from the police station.

The matter is also very simple, one of the uncles Liang Yao got acquainted with collecting scraps told Liang Yao, "There is an abandoned construction site nearby, and the scraps inside can be sold for a lot of money." Liang Yao saw that they had all gone to pick it up, so he also went to the construction site to pick up construction materials and sold them as scraps for money. Who knew that the owner of the construction site had already called the police, saying that a thief stole the materials from his construction site, so Liang Yao was so desperate that he just happened to be caught.

When Mo Zhonghua arrived at the police station, Liang Yao was already twitching nervously inside.He thought of a lot of explanations, but felt that there was no need to explain. He had made a mistake in the first place, and Uncle Mo would definitely be disappointed in himself!

Mo Zhonghua was very harsh on Mo Yingtong, and often taught him harshly, and it was all because of trivial things.He had never treated Liang Yao like that before. Liang Yao thought that he would not be able to escape this time. He had already entered the police station. Uncle Mo would definitely not tolerate him anymore.

Surprisingly, Mo Zhonghua carefully asked what happened. Not only did he not scold Liang Yao, but he also reasoned with the police: "My child was tricked by someone, and he didn't even know that the things on the construction site were private property! Said that Liang Yao is underage and has no criminal responsibility!" He did not reveal his identity, but was like an ordinary parent, arguing for Liang Yao at the police station, like a very protective father.

Liang Yao has always clearly remembered the details of that day, every word and every expression Mo Zhonghua said was engraved in his mind.It was also from that day on that a strong desire grew in his heart to call Mo Zhonghua 'Dad'!
