Sanheng Street, night market food stalls.

Located on the edge of the outskirts of the city, this street is a tattered road during the day, and at night there will be large and small vendors in front of the shops on the street, barbecue, spicy hot, small stir-fry, and everywhere is full of lively sounds of shouting and drinking and cooking with hot oil.

Several people came to the "Lao Si Barbecue" stall and found a slightly flat table to sit down.

Zhou Yu spread his legs on the maza, took off his shirt and threw it on his shoulders, he was a glutton, and he didn't need to look at the menu to shout directly: "Boss!

The grilled chicken rack in this house is a must, with serious coke, sprinkled with some sugar spices and spicy, you can smell the fragrance here from afar, if they didn't come early, they wouldn't have been able to find a seat here at night.

The boss is a middle-aged man, wearing an apron and smoking a cigarette, cutting meat on the cutting board, hearing Zhou Yu's words, he didn't stop working on his hands, but the urn made a "hmm" angrily.

Although it was not long after dinner, they were all one or twenty-year-old stick boys, with a good appetite, a large plate of meat skewers was served, the fragrance was blowing through the nose, the beer that had just opened the spout was emitting white smoke, and the bottle was condensed with water droplets, and it was cold to cool off in one sip.

"one!"

Beer bottles collide together, splashing snow-white hops.

Zhou Yu's mouth was stuffed with meat, and he asked vaguely: "Old monkey, what are you busy with after you go to No. 1 Middle School to study, the first few times I went to your house with Lao Xin to look for you, no one was there." ”

The old monkey drank several glasses of wine in a row just now, he didn't talk much tonight, he kept staring at the ground under his feet in a daze, and when he heard Zhou Yu asking, he raised his head and wanted to show a natural smile in front of the brothers, but he didn't seem to be used to laughing at this expression, so the smile was a little ugly.

"What's that...... I didn't read anymore. ”

"Isn't it? Your grades are so good, and the college entrance examination is also a book, how can you say that if you don't read it, you won't read it?" Zhou Yu's face was full of surprise, and he stood up and knocked down Ma Za, causing a burst of attention from all around.

Shen Xin finished taking a sip of wine, his mood was a little dull, he was not surprised by the old monkey's answer, although the old monkey had been trying to cover it up, but Shen Xin still saw some details.

His fingernails were black, his palms were a little cracked, and the skin on his face was rough, all of which were characteristic of doing all the hard work he had done in the wind and sun, and most obviously, his brother had become darker, thinner, and more silent.

The three of them have always been the best playmates from elementary school to high school, and they are also the most iron brothers, and they have deep feelings, that is, people with big nerves like Zhou Yu will not notice the changes in Zhang Xiaohou.

"Monkey, are you in any difficulty, let's brothers, don't hide it from us, I don't dare to say it, but as long as it's helped, I and Lao Yu will definitely have to help you." ”

Shen Xin said seriously, in his impression, Zhang Xiaohou has always been a little shy and a big boy who loves to laugh, and the poverty of his family has become the reason for his inferiority, but it is the motivation for him to study hard, and his eyes have always been bright, with hope and hope.

Now those eyes are no longer bright, and they are full of the weight of life.

"No, it's okay, it's just that my dad was hospitalized a while ago, and I'm the only man left in the family, so I have to stand up and take care of things. ”

Zhang Xiaohou was a little intermittent when he spoke, and he didn't know if it was because of alcohol, his eyes were a little red, he covered his eyes and rubbed them.

"Is my uncle feeling better?Do you need a helper?Is the medical expenses enough?It's all your own brother, you just talk directly, this kind of thing can't be ambiguous......

"He's gone. ”

Zhang Xiaohou didn't know how he squeezed these three words out of his throat.

The transition from boy to man is often done in an instant.

Shen Xin patted Zhang Xiaohou's shoulder heavily, it was useless to say anything at this time, all he could do was to drink with his brother.

Zhang Xiaohou raised his head, rubbed his messy face vigorously, and said quite reluctantly: "I'm fine, now I'm doing some odd jobs on the construction site, so I can subsidize the family, and I will slowly get better in the future." ”

Zhou Yu's eyes were also a little red, and he held up a beer bottle: "Monkey, you are a real man, you want to make a lot of money in the future, and you want to let your aunt live a good life, this is what your uncle wants to see most in the sky, drinking!"

There was a clinking of glasses, and the cold liquor diluted the depression in my heart.

Although Zhang Xiaohou didn't say it, Shen Xin also knew how easy it was for a family that was already struggling to survive and clothing to be dragged down by an illness, and because of it, it was burdened with huge debts, and it was difficult to turn over.

The old classmate is in trouble, so he has to help him.

Shen Xinxin secretly wrote down this matter.

……

……

Early the next morning, Shen Xin didn't have time to eat breakfast, so he hurriedly rode his bicycle to school.

It's Monday, and there's a ton of trouble waiting for him at school.

When he entered the school gate, the announcement of the flag-raising ceremony had been ringing for a while, and he put his schoolbag in the classroom and went downstairs to gather.

The head teacher, Xin Zhenghai, found Shen Xin and told him about the important matters of publicly apologizing at the flag-raising ceremony, and said that he wanted to see his review speech.

Shen Xin didn't write it at all, he forgot.

"Head teacher, I didn't bring a draft, in order to show my sincerity, this time it was an off-draft review, and I memorized it all. He said nonsense with a serious expression.

"That's good. Xin Zhenghai nodded, seemed to be satisfied with his attitude, and suddenly said, "By the way, remember to come to the office after school in the morning." ”

"Huh, what are you going to do in the office?"

"Wei Ziying's parents want to see you. ”

My day!

Shen Xin's face suddenly stiffened: "Wei Ziying's parents?"

Xin Zhenghai said: "It's not that you did the whole thing last week, the parents of other people are afraid that you will have any radical behavior towards his daughter in the future, so they are not at ease, and they say that they want to come and meet you, and you should prepare yourself." ”

I didn't seem to have this one in my last life......

Shen Xin still wanted to ask a few more questions, but Xin Zhenghai had already walked to the front.

"He is Shen Xin, I heard that at Lin Yang's birthday banquet last night, he fought with a son-in-law from the capital for Wei Ziying. ”

"Isn't he the same boy who confessed to last week's school anniversary?"

"It's him, last night the incident was so big, it alarmed a lot of people, and I heard that Shen Xin was pressed and beaten by several people on the other side at first, and then one of them touched Wei Ziying, and then Shen Xin went crazy, and he just beat a few people alone!"

"Cut, where did you hear this version, I was at the scene last night, obviously Shen Xin chased the one named Wang Xu, and then the other party's bodyguard came, and he only beat a few of them. ”

"Later, when I came out of the hotel, the other party called people again, what a big group, blocked Shen Xin in the factory area, of course, Shen Xin is not a vegetarian, his uncle is Shen Tang, Shen Tang knows, right?"

"Shen Tang also brought someone over at that time......
