Chapter 176: The King of Fighters (1)
"Bang...... Bang...... Bang ......."
At eight o'clock in the evening, there was a loud bang in the empty gym, and a tall, burly man kicked out the sandbag again and again, and the interval between each leg was very even, and the force was amazing.
Now he was the only one left in the gym, surrounded by black rumbling, only an incandescent lamp above his head, not bright enough, but he could see his crystal sweat and dust drifting in the air.
The last leg kicked out, and he wiped his forehead with a yellowed white towel, and he put on his gloves and started other exercises, until he was completely trained, and it was close to ten o'clock.
After wiping the floor with a mop and putting the rest of the gym equipment in its proper place, he carried the bath basket into the bathroom, took off his clothes, unscrewed the shower, and washed the cold water on his muscle-filled body.
Picked up a bag of five cents and wanted to tear it open, but his hand was a little slippery, and he didn't tear it twice, and finally bit the bag directly on his mouth, squeezed it on his head, and rubbed it all over his body with only a bag of shampoo, washed it clean, changed into clean clothes, stuffed the old clothes full of sweat and sour smell into the school bag, pushed open the door of the gym and locked it.
After walking a short distance, he caught the last bus that was about to depart, he sat on a single seat, holding his schoolbag, leaning his head against the glass of the car, looking out, and the scenery outside gradually bustling.
A little further from the place of getting off is a snack street, or an urban village, selling all kinds of snacks on the street, and there are a lot of people, but it doesn't seem to be rich.
Walked into the alley, opened the door of a self-built four-story building, the corridor was very dark, he went up to the third floor with three steps in one step, and there was a mute old lady living in the door, and he saw him "Ah, Ah, Ah" twice.
Nodding to the old lady, he took out the key and unscrewed the door of his house, he walked in, the light in the living room was still on, and his mother was sitting in the living room sewing cross-stitch, but her eyes were not very good, she took a mouthful of thread, squinted her eyes and carefully wore the needle.
He took the needle and thread, put it in at once, handed it to his mother, took off his schoolbag and coat and threw them on the sofa, turned on the kitchen light, brought the dishes on the stove to the dining table, there was rice in the rice cooker, filled a bowl, went to the toilet to wash his hands, pulled out the stool, and ate silently with his back to his mother.
"Today...... I saw Xiaohe, I heard that I am working in a big company now, and I found a girlfriend, but she is beautiful, and the two of them will get married at the end of the year. ”
The work in the mother's hands was done quickly, and her mouth was not idle, and she told Wang Zewen about today's things with words, but in exchange for Wang Zewen's silence.
"Hey, do you know where Xiaohe works? It's only been a few years, and he has a car, a house, and a wife. ”
"I don't know. ”
Wang Zewen stuffed a mouthful of rice into his mouth, took a chopstick and shredded potatoes into his mouth, chewed quickly, and swallowed the rice before answering his mother's words.
"I also asked if their company still wants people, but I don't know if you can want you with this academic degree, I guess it's hanging, alas...... If only you hadn't learned boxing, you would have been able to live well wherever you worked. ”
Mother's words stung Wang Zewen slightly, the chopsticks paused, and casually threw the shredded potatoes into the bowl, this kind of cynicism has lasted for a long time, and he has become accustomed to it.
"Why don't you go to see your work these days, don't be idle at home, my monthly pension is 800 yuan, which is not enough for you to eat. ”
"I have a job. ”
"You have a job? Just clean up in the gym? Who can do this job? I'm ashamed to say it, and I earn so little, you have to pay two or three thousand a month for food, and if I die, what can you live on?"
The mother had already made it very clear, but Wang Zewen was still silent and did not answer, which made her very angry, put down the needle and thread, sat on the other side of the table, and looked up at him.
"Go to the gym tomorrow to resign, listen to me, no matter where you work, or push your own cart to do a small business, or even go to work as a security guard, don't go to boxing anymore, after six years, can you still see a way out?"
"Yes. ”
"Bang! You can hit a fart! It's been six years, you haven't played a game in six years, do you need me to say anything? If you had a bit of face, you should have done something else. ”
Wang Zewen ate the last grain of rice in the rice bowl, he was a pot-bellied man who did a lot of physical training every day, a bowl of rice would definitely not be enough, he looked up at his mother, and was about to get up and serve another bowl.
"You sit down for me! You know how to eat in one day! Tomorrow I will help at your second uncle's seafood stall, and I told him that I will let you help and give you 4,000 yuan a month. ”
"I'm not going, it's delaying training. ”
He sat down when he heard his mother's words, but the next moment he decisively rejected his mother's words, which made his mother very angry and angry.
"I've been fighting for you for 12 years, and I don't care about the money! Because you're my son, I won't be reluctant to give you food even if I pick up the rags! But it's been six years, you haven't played a single game, you're twenty-six years old, do you still have a chance to fight?"
"I've been boxing for 12 years, since I was 14 years old, can I let it go? I also thought about quitting, and I wanted to find another job, but I just kept thinking about it, I just can't forget it, I gave you all the bonuses from the previous fights, I guess it's still almost, and I'll pay you back when I get to the game." ”
Wang Zewen, who has been silent and doesn't talk much, still hasn't been able to be silent, the first time he has said so many words, although his expression is calm, but in his eyes, he can see the firmness of his belief.
"Why are you so obsessed!"
"Because this is the life I am used to, this is what I chose, I have persisted for so long, I don't want to change, I can't change, I adapt to this kind of life, a different way of living...... I'm not used to it. ”
He didn't plan to eat this meal, put down his chopsticks, got up and put on his coat, put his schoolbag behind him, pushed open the door, hesitated for a while, and finally walked out of the door, leaving only his mother looking at his back with a puzzled face.
He may be the rebel son that people say, a child who keeps his mother's advice, who can start a family at the age of twenty-four, but his income is still so low that he needs his mother to help him.
But he has been running every day as soon as he wakes up, training his body, and working with sandbags and gloves every day, and it's hard for him to change it, at least for him.
"Arwen, why are you going so late?"
He grew up in this urban village, and most of the people who do the snack business here are his old neighbors, and he said hello to Wang Zewen when he saw him.
"Go out for a walk. ”
casually prevaricated, touched the stomach that had just eaten three points full, took out the scattered seventy or eighty yuan from his pocket, hesitated for a while, and walked into a hungry fly restaurant.
"Arwen, why are you here?"
The plainly dressed girl was sending a box of beer to a group of half-sized children who drank a lot of wine, opened the carton quickly, opened the beer, put the bottle cap into her apron pocket, got up to see Lu Ze, and said hello with a bright smile.
"Oh me...... When I eat some rice, I just need a dried tofu with sharp peppers and a bowl of rice. ”
Wang Zewen likes this girl named Xing Qiuya, since several years when their family opened a small restaurant here, he liked it at first sight, and it was quite embarrassing to say, he is twenty-four years old, and he is still a rookie in the love field.
"Then you wait, I'll make it right away, Dad, dried tofu with sharp peppers!
She wiped the sweat from her forehead, smiled at Wang Zewen, and shouted towards the kitchen, and the people inside also responded, and the two did not communicate after that, because she had to take care of two five-year-old brothers and a three-year-old sister who were running around in the restaurant.
The dishes came up quickly, the amount of dishes was very large, after all, they were all acquaintances, Wang Zewen devoured the meal, handed over seventeen yuan to Xing Qiuya, and then turned around and left.
