After Wei Chenglin went home, his mother complained all day long, saying that he had just made a little progress and started to float. So, whether downstairs or at the door of his supermarket, Qiao Lin could always hear Cheng Lin's mother's loud voice: "Floating to the sky!

In all fairness, is Cheng Lin really floating?

When Qiao Nan was at home, he also went to play in No. 2 Middle School with Wei Chenglin. Qiao Lin asked her brother, has Wei Chenglin changed anything?

"No, it's the same as before. Qiao Nan said: "I was still abused very badly." ”

……

Qiao Nan also smiled and said: "When he didn't cut his hair, he still had two strokes; I'm still wondering if there's any BFF hidden in his hairstyle. ”

"I didn't ask this, I just wanted to know, does Wei Chenglin have a shelf now?"

"There's a fart, doesn't it mean it's the same as before? Qiao Nan tore off the T-shirt and threw it on her sister's head: "Wash it for me." ”

……

Jolene clenched her fists before she was stunted by the smell of sweat, thinking to herself that this revenge must be avenged! For example, covering his mouth and nose with his stinky socks while he was asleep.

But the good news is that my brother also thinks that Cheng Lin has not changed, and he is still a teenager in this alley. His mother asked him to cut his hair, and he went to cut it, so Qiao Lin didn't understand why Aunt Zhao kept scolding him. Li Lanzhi can see through it at a glance: "What else can it be? Of course, the expectations for him are too high!"

There is some truth to this.

said that before the second year of high school, my mother did the same to herself. It's good now, my mother doesn't interfere with anything. Except for the occasional nagging sentence and asking her to come back to take the career editor's exam, the rest is nothing more than asking.

In fact, in the past few days at home, Qiao Lin has not been idle, except for accompanying her grandmother to go out for a walk, she has been reading books the rest of the time. One night, the Qiao sisters accompanied their grandmother for a walk on the playground of No. 2 Middle School.

Grandma quipped: "Looking at your posture, you don't want to be admitted to Peking University, right?"

Qiao Lin was startled and hurriedly denied: "Grandma, don't say that......"

Grandma laughed heartily: "I know that Peking University is the most famous, and I don't know other schools!"

Jolene was so weak that she didn't dare to continue the topic. But her grandmother whispered to her: "If you have that energy, you will go to the test! Shut your aunt's mouth! Don't worry, I won't tell anyone." ”

After listening to her grandmother's words, Qiao Lin became happy again, holding her grandmother's arm and shaking it non-stop.

After Grandma had a physical examination, Qiao Lin always couldn't sleep well, and when the results came out, she didn't dare to go to see it. Fortunately, grandma is still very tough, except for high blood pressure, everything else is normal.

After seeing the results, Qiao Lin plunged into her grandmother's arms again, half coquettish, half happy: "Grandma is fine, you are healthy, I can rest assured that I can rush to Peking University!"

"Ahem, you little monkey! You're not married yet, how dare grandma have anything? You just have to study hard, and come back to see grandma after the holidays!"

"Hmm!"

There is a deep love between ancestors and grandchildren here, but Li Lanzhi and Qiao Lu in the kitchen looked at each other and smiled, Li Lanzhi smiled: "Sample, I really want to be admitted to Peking University!"

Qiao Lu said: "Mom, let's just pretend not to know, if we get up in front of her, she will be embarrassed again." ”

"I know, I don't bother to care about her, I can take the test wherever I like. ”

In Jolene's memory, there were a lot of parties during that holiday. One night, the leaders of the No. 2 Middle School were busy with work and came to Qiao's house for a drink. When Jolene came back from her aunt's house, several of the teachers who were usually very gentle were shouting, and everyone was drinking and their faces were red.

After drinking a round, Lao Xu filled them with wine again, he was so excited that he couldn't sit still, his buttocks kept turning direction, and his legs trembled like spasms: "Let's be in the second middle school...... This year, we will create another brilliant achievement! The first rate is the highest in the province! Just ask you, which county and city high school can catch up with us! The group of grandsons in the attached middle school still want to fight with us, so let's pull it down!"

They drank another glass of wine amid the calamity of their rivals, acting like a bunch of vindictive high school students. Jolene didn't like their shouting, but she was happy for them.

She used to have a lot of confusion about the choice of adults, but now she hasn't fully figured it out. When Lao Xu left No. 2 Middle School, many people said that he made a lot of money, but only a few people believed that he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart. Li Lanzhi had already told Qiao Lin, how can you young people understand the standards that the old party members and cadres of that era demanded of themselves. The scale in their hearts will never be tilted.

After he left, he did make a lot of money, but when the No. 2 Middle School encountered a major earthquake, he came back without hesitation. Together with the veterans of the No. 2 Middle School, he consolidated the country that had been defeated together and revitalized the majesty of the No. 2 Middle School. Now, he is drinking wine and bragging about cowhide in this small shop, which is not at all like the upright image in school.

Qiao Lin once asked her mother, Lao Xu's family is so rich, and he can earn a lot of money outside, why do he have to come back to worry so much and get so much dead salary?

Regarding this issue, Li Lanzhi could have written a small essay about "love" and "feelings", but she didn't say much, but made a joke: "You just think he wants to find a place to pay him five insurances and one housing fund!"

What are five insurances and one housing fund? Qiao Lin didn't understand, but she knew that her mother was lying to her, so she said persistently: "No, his family has so much money!"

"Let me tell you this, the sense of accomplishment brought to him by No. 2 Middle School is incomparable to other places. ”

With that, Jolene understood most of it.

Looking at these male classmates around her, without exception, they are all looking for a "sense of achievement". Qiao Lin thought about it, and the biggest sense of achievement in her life was that she won the first place in the province in the aerobics competition and won a national scholarship.

Oh, by the way, if good popularity is also an achievement, then she has achieved quite a lot.

On the night of drinking at Qiao's house, Lao Xu also mentioned Wei Chenglin, and he was even more excited: "Have you heard of it? Wei Chenglin, that kid, won the first place in a 'Chinese Star' or other competition in the United States." Yesterday he came to my house and told me that he wanted to donate the prize money to our school. Hey, such an excellent student was cultivated by our school! It is the credit of our teachers! Just because of his virtue back then, if he went to other places, there would be someone to help him? He can still shine like this? I don't believe it!"

However, after a few years of hard work, Wei Chenglin has indeed become a big pride in the second middle school. The most commendable thing is that every time he comes back, he will always go to No. 2 Middle School to visit his former teachers, and he will also give some advice to music art candidates. No wonder the teachers praised him for being a good boy who never forgot his original intention.

Jolene was also proud to have such a person by her side. But the strange thing is that the two seem to be estranged for some reason, and although they can see each other every day, they don't talk much. That night, Qiao Lin went to take out the garbage, and Wei Chenglin was standing downstairs smoking, so he spoke first: "Listen to my mother, you are going to graduate school?"

"Hmm. ”

"Why are you all so ambitious?"

Jolene asked unceremoniously, "Don't you?"

Wei Chenglin tasted the joy of success for the first time at that time, and was enjoying the joy, and when Qiao Lin asked, he woke up more than half of the time.

When he went to visit his teacher that day, Dean Liu also told him in a serious manner, "You are young, it is not easy to achieve such results, but you can't be complacent. You're talented, and you deserve to be ambitious.

Seeing that he was stunned, Qiao Lin stood on tiptoe and said, "Don't forget, you vowed to change the Chinese music scene!"

Of course, Wei Chenglin did not forget that oath, but he was a little slack for the time being. was bombarded by the people around him in turn, and he also woke up.

Wei Chenglin has become a small rich man among his peers, and he can buy a lot of gifts for his mother every time he comes back. In his sophomore year of high school, he bought a LV bag for his mother, and after so many years, his mother still maintains it like new, and only carries it on her back on formal occasions.

When he went home this time, Wei Chenglin bought two more bags for his mother, but he was scolded by his mother again, scolding him for spending money indiscriminately and not knowing how to save. She's the proprietress of a grocery store and a hotel, where can she get so many bags?

Wei Chenglin didn't understand, which of the mothers of those international students around him was not dressed in gold and silver and luxury?

His mother told him very clearly: "Just pack one of these things and get it on the table, and don't waste money on the rest." Buying those things is time-consuming and costly, so it's better to use them for something more meaningful. ”

His mother also told him: "There is never a shame in being diligent and thrifty, and people who are really capable will never be looked down upon because of these worries." ”

Wei Chenglin didn't say anything, but he was still quite touched in his heart. He has experienced so many ups and downs, of course he understands his mother's good intentions - not forgetting his original intention and not forgetting his former self.

Wei Chenglin understands all these truths, even if he was reprimanded by his mother, he was still unhappy. He went upstairs with Jolene, and Jolene told him, "Actually, Aunt Zhao has always been proud of you." ”

"Hmm...... I know. ”

"She asked us to download all the songs you wrote, and she looped them around the store all day long. On several occasions, I heard people compliment her on the beauty of her bag, and she proudly said that her son bought it for her with money. ”

Wei Chenglin lowered his head, pursed his lips and smiled-what his mother was most proud of was not how many things he bought. He knew what to do to make his mother more proud.

The older she gets, the more Qiao Lin can feel Wei Chenglin's talent, and the few songs he wrote, her roommates also like them very much. After returning to school in late August, Murong played a male singer's song called Night Sea on a loop all day long, which made his roommates almost throw up.

It was a very lyrical slow song, with simple lyrics and no flowery rhetoric, telling the story of a man reminiscing about his former lovers by the sea. The whole tune is calm and soothing, with no heart-rending highs and no pretentious embellishments. Plain, simple, and telling a sad story, it captured the hearts of a large number of listeners at once.

When Jolene first heard Night Sea, she also thought it sounded good. But a good song can't stand being played every day like this, and after Wang Keke's protest, Murong was also a little unhappy, and at this time, Jolene, a dove of peace, quickly stepped out and proposed: "There is a new version of this song, you can listen to it." ”

"Who sang it?"

The author of this song, Wei ...... Oh, his stage name is called. ”

Murong really found it on the Internet, and after she hummed a few words, she was immediately intoxicated: "It's worthy of writing songs, and the feelings are too rich!"

Jolene was very happy, and immediately got up: "yes, yes, isn't it better than the original song?"

"Well, his tone is very good, and he only uses a guitar to accompany him, but it seems that his singing skills are even better—— is the guitar he plays himself?"

"Yes!" Jolene was pleased, and then gushed out, "He can play the piano and guitar, sing well, look good, and play basketball well......

After Qiao Lin finished speaking, she said anxiously: "He really likes to play basketball......! After all, I grew up watching Slam Dunk!"

"Do you have any photos?"

"Ahh Jolene wanted to find a picture from her phone to show off with her roommates, but it suddenly occurred to her that when they grew up, they hardly took a group photo.

Murong was still searching for Wei Chenglin's information on the Internet, but what he could find was indeed very few, nothing more than what Qiao Lin said. She had no choice but to listen to the music again, and the words in her mouth were repeated: "How do I feel that he wrote this song for someone?

*Note: The prototype of "Night Sea" is based on singer Zhang Fanjun's Yeshui Night Sea.
