hole in one

Wang Nan has no friends since he was a child. Children of his age always look at him with pity and disgust. Even in winter, he would wash his hands and face with cold water. I have always insisted on the habit of washing my hair at least once every two days. Even though he is actually cleaner than many boys, people always think he is dirty.The girls sitting at the same table as him would always use a pencil sharpener to draw a line on the desk, while the boys would sometimes be more rude.

"Teacher, I don't want to sit with Wang Nan!"

He will always remember that day when the girl named He Hua stood up and spoke in front of the whole class, and at the previous moment, he was secretly delighted to be able to sit with her.

Even a child has a feeling of beauty and ugliness. He Hua looks like a doll, with big eyes and small mouth, two braids, always wearing pink or white clothes, half of the boys in the class like her.Wang Nan is no exception, but he likes Hehua not only because of her beauty, but also because Hehua, like him, also has divorced parents.He always felt that they had some sympathy for each other—even though she didn't know the word at that time, she was willing to get close to He Hua from the bottom of her heart.

And He Hua is also well-behaved and good at studying, he always feels that this is a kind and gentle girl.He thought that they were going to sit at the same table, so he must study hard and try to get the first place in the exam, so that Hehua would look at him with admiration, and the teacher would think that it would be very good for the two of them to sit together.

But when he was thinking so beautifully, He Hua stood up with a bang, and then said so loudly.

"He Hua, why don't you sit with Wang Nan?" The teacher didn't seem to expect such a situation.

"Because he is dirty, his mother is a street sweeper!"

……

He couldn't remember what happened after that, and he felt his head was foggy, and he was spinning for a while. He sat there, but he no longer knew where he was.That night, he thought about death, his mother was a street sweeper, and he could never change this.He wanted to cast a good baby again, and wanted to find a good mother. He held a knife and compared it to his arm for a while, but in the end he didn't scratch it. At that time, he didn't know that it was human's survival instinct. He stayed in a daze for half the night, and then fell asleep again in a daze.After that, he went to school and ate as usual, but he never thought about He Hua again, and he never felt awkward about the [-]th line carved by his deskmate.

At that time, he felt that he was so cowardly that he didn't even dare to die. He was just like those villains in TV dramas who were greedy for life and afraid of death. He would always be disliked.And not long after that, his mother got married again.The day before the wedding, his mother called him over, touched his head, and said, "Your uncle will come tomorrow, so don't make trouble with him. We can still live in this house now, thanks to your uncle." ! Your uncle is a good man, and he will not treat you badly."

They lived in his grandma's house. When his grandma was here, it didn't matter that they lived here, but once his grandma left, the ownership of the house became a problem.

This house is not a good house. The three rooms in the courtyard are damp and cold, but after all, it is still a house. Moreover, it is not far from the wholesale market of the railway station. There are many businessmen from other places who are willing to rent a house here .

What's more, during those days in Liangcheng, demolition and renovation were everywhere, and there were always rumors of demolition at Daqianmen.

After demolition, the compensation for these three houses is not much, but if there is no compensation, and a little more money, you can get a middle apartment, or even a large apartment! ——At that time, Liangcheng did not have the term commercial housing, they called it building.Although the place is a bit remote, there are kitchens, toilets, and sewer pipes, and it will not be flooded or leaked even if it rains or snows.

Of course, Jiang Xiaolian's brothers and sisters all have houses and are willing to help this poor little sister, but these helpers can't help carelessly, they all have families and holes, and no one can just give up the house for nothing. , Finally, after discussing, Jiang Xiaolian took out 3000 yuan to compensate her brothers and sisters. From now on, this house will belong to Jiang Xiaolian!

It's not that Jiang Xiaolian can't take out 3000 yuan, but after taking out this money, she basically has nothing to save.At that time, her monthly salary was only more than 200 yuan, and with some additional subsidies, it was less than [-] yuan.

Four hundred!This is considered a high salary in Liangcheng, but she lives alone with Wang Nan. Wang Nan is still in school, and the tuition and miscellaneous fees are only one or two hundred per semester. She also needs to make school uniforms, buy stationery, and have extra meals in the morning. , and when Wang Nan was growing up, he always needed one or two new clothes every year. His body was not particularly healthy, and he had a few colds and fevers every winter. spread.Although she lives with her mother, her mother has no income. Although she sold popsicles and embroidery needles when she was young, she has never worked in a factory and has no pension. Fortunately, her children are filial. She will be given some living expenses every month, and she can live her life.

But Jiang Xiaolian lives here, of course she needs to help her mother more.If the old lady has a serious illness, of course she should inform the elder brothers and sisters above. If she usually has a headache, then it is hard to say.So after a few years, she really didn't save any money, but this is normal, you know, it was an era when a household with a ten thousand yuan household would be admired by others.

And just when she was in trouble, Zhang Quan took out the 3000 yuan.

Although Wang Nan was not a big deal at the time, he knew about these things, so he nodded and said nothing, although in his heart he did not want his mother to be separated like this.He didn't expect that this was just the beginning.

The man came, and then his brother was born, and then his mother, just like that, became someone else's.

Most people, probably only think about life and survival when they are teenagers, but Wang Nan started thinking about it when he had not graduated from elementary school.In class, during breaks, when others are listening carefully, or frolicking to their heart's content, he just rests his jaw and thinks, what is the purpose of his life, what is the meaning of his existence?

He thought a lot, and the final conclusion was that it didn't make sense.

His existence will not affect the rotation of the sun or the earth. After he dies, his name will not appear in the books. Maybe some teachers will sigh, but that is all.His mother might be sad, but now that he has a younger brother, it won't be too long.

Thinking of this, he felt that nothing was interesting, and that he was alive, but he was just a walking dead.

It wasn't until he met Fang Wenzhuo that he realized that life can be so wonderful!It can be so colorful!

Fang Wenzhuo took him to steal beer bottles and pull the valve cores on the teachers' bicycles. They succeeded and they laughed together. When they failed, they were chased together. They even stole the manhole cover together, and then used the money from selling iron , buy a broom and put it in, in Fang Wenzhuo's words: "We are wicked, only half of it is missing!"

Of course, the most important thing is that Fang Wenzhuo does not despise him!He can wrap his arms around his neck anytime, anywhere, and pull him anytime, anywhere. With Fang Wenzhuo, he doesn't have to think about his mother being a street sweeper, and he doesn't have to think about whether he is dirty.

Therefore, although many people persuaded him, he was still willing to be with Fang Wenzhuo.

Key High School?one high?What's the use of that?

Success?What's the use of that?

At that time, Wang Nan didn't know the feeling of power, he just felt that even if he became a family like what the teachers said, in fact, it was nothing more than that.Those teachers must be good students when they were in school, they must have studied hard, but they are just teachers!

As for going to prison, Wang Nan also felt that he was far away from him. He even felt that he would not live to be 20 years old. If he died early, it would not matter whether he was in prison or not.

"Are you hungry? Then let's go eat the ramen at Lao Fang's house. After eating the ramen, we can go play again. Lao Fang's house is close to there."

As Fang Wenzhuo said, he pushed him to the outside of the school gate. He nodded without thinking about whether there was enough time. Playing truant was no longer a rare thing for him.

Lao Fang's ramen is very famous in Liangcheng. It has an old sign for more than ten years, and there is no store. When the time comes, you have to wait in line to be called.

Wang Nan was detained by Yun Yong, and they came here again by bus. It was almost past meal time, but there were still a lot of people, and it was their turn after waiting for more than ten minutes.Fang Wenzhuo brought two bowls of noodles, touched a head of garlic, peeled it for himself, and asked him: "Eat one, eat garlic to kill poison."

"Tasty."

"Oh, who still despises you."

Wang Nan didn't say a word, put in the chili, mixed it, and started to eat. Seeing that he really didn't want to eat it, Fang Wenzhuo stopped persuading him, put the garlic cloves in a bowl, and ate it voraciously. At this point, he was also hungry. up.Lao Fang’s ramen was famous for its strong noodles and delicious marinade in the early years. Now the master chef has stopped pulling noodles, and the noodles are not much different from other restaurants. The business will still be so good. The key is still Their brine.

Winter melon, day lily, and minced mutton. Speaking of which, Liangcheng’s local ramen is nothing special, but the stewed noodles of ordinary people are straight and salty, but this one is also fragrant. The winter melon is soft, and the day lily is crunchy. , it tastes very good.

A small bowl costs one yuan, and a large bowl costs two yuan. Generally speaking, a large bowl is enough for an adult man, but Fang Wenzhuo still owes some, so in the end, he ordered two more bowls of noodle soup. , he rubbed his belly and said: "Old Xutou said that ancient people talked about keeping in good health, and they all ate [-]% full. I will also keep in good health once today. Are you full?"

"I also learn from you, keep in good health."

"No, no, if you're not full, let's have another small bowl, and we'll share it."

Wang Nan laughed, and Fang Wenzhuo flicked his forehead with his hand: "I told you to lie to me, why is my brother so easy to bully."

Wang Nan smiled teasingly: "Didn't I want you to eat more?"

"Okay, let's buy sesame seed cakes with beef in a while, and we have to bend over to play billiards later. It's not good to eat too much."

At that time, billiards were just emerging in Liangcheng, and it wasn’t like it was later. Almost every street had one or two tables. In the five districts of Liangcheng, there were only seven or eight places with tables. Even so, these shops It is also rare to specialize in billiards, usually with game consoles.

This is what Fang Wenzhuo said about the family. It is a big place, with a row of game consoles on one side, a group of children in their seventies and eighties playing there, and four tables on the other side, playing there. Yes, most of them are in their teens or 20s.

"Little table, why, come to play too?"

Fang Wenzhuo took Wang Nan in, and was about to give him some advice when he heard this. He raised his head and laughed immediately: "Hey, Brother Hu! You still have sharp eyes!"

While speaking, he led Wang Nan to the third table. Unlike the gangsters around him who seemed to be from the society at first glance, Brother Hu in front of him was quite refined, wearing a red shirt with a white background. Wearing a thin gold necklace, with Sanqi parted.

"I didn't expect to meet Brother Hu here, called Brother Hu!"

The last sentence was addressed to Wang Nan. Wang Nan immediately called Brother Hu respectfully. Brother Hu hummed, glanced at him, and said to Wenzhuo, "Okay, I'm starting to accept my younger brother too."

"Brother Hu was joking, Nanzi and I go to the same school."

While Fang Wenzhuo was talking, he took out a pack of Sanwu, took out one, and handed it to Brother Hu. Wang Nan knew that Fang Wenzhuo always had two packs of cigarettes on him, one pack was usually Sanwu, Hilton, and the other The bag is a miscellaneous brand, the better ones are only one or two yuan, but generally it will not exceed one yuan. This bag is drawn by himself and the brothers around him.

Fang Wenzhuo gave up the cigarette, and lit the fire for Brother Hu. Brother Hu took a sip: "You boy, you will enjoy it."

Fang Wenzhuo chuckled: "This is dedicated to honor Brother Hu."

"Okay, let's go to the boss to arrange a number, otherwise there may not be a table for you at night."

"Okay, Brother Hu, if you need anything, just say hello!"

Brother Hu nodded his head, raised his pole, and stepped forward.
