Chapter 15: Mom Arrives
Perhaps it was the training during this period that improved immunity, and Kong Yixian returned to work three days later. Chang Yi has formulated a new training program, which will be more difficult and tiring than before.
"In addition to these, you still have to practice the heavy metal and sudden shock that you are most afraid of, and you have to train for two more hours every day before the target. ”
Kong Yixian put on the wrist guard, and her intuition hurt her head, "Is there another competition?"
"Well, in the second half of the year, there will be a city championship, and each archery hall and city team will send the best players to compete, and the competition will be fierce. ”
Liang Fei is no stranger to the championship, and decided to participate, Kong Yixian is more curious, all the best players in the city are on the same field, think about it is quite exciting.
But after a few hours, she was not so happy.
"Fingers...... It hurts......"
Although I usually practice archery, I have never been so long, not only my arms are tired and shivering, but my index finger, middle finger and ring finger are also blistered with blood.
Despite the protective gear, it still can't stop the thousands of times of wear, and every time I shoot an arrow, my fingertips will be scraped by the bowstring once, and even my heart will twitch when it hurts.
Chang Yi felt sorry for her, and specially bought a band-aid to wrap her fingertips during the break, "Every athlete comes over like this, and I won't be afraid of calluses in the future." ”
Kong Yixian grinned and nodded, seeing that the blood blister was not too big, she continued to pull the string after resting for a few minutes.
In addition, the physical exercise also made her very painful. Compared with those children who have exercised since childhood, even if she can withstand high-intensity exercise as an adult, damage to the joints is inevitable.
At the end of the day, my shoulders were a little overwhelmed.
And Chang Yi still said that, just get used to it.
Liang Fei on the side didn't dare to tell Kong Yixian, in fact, even if he arrived at the provincial team, such an amount of exercise was not small, although he understood Chang Yi's mood of wanting to train Kong Yixian quickly, but looking at it like this, it was really unbearable.
"Boss, let her take a break......"
Chang Yi, who was timing Kong Yixian, didn't raise her head, "Once a person rests, it will be difficult to get up and exercise, she can hold on." ”
Liang Fei was still ruthless when he saw Kong Yixian's increasingly painful expression, "Everyone comes in step by step, she is not used to it after all." ”
Kong Yixian couldn't hold it anymore, eight seconds more than the previous record. Chang Yi took a breath and looked back at Liang Fei with a cold look in his eyes.
"It's because you have this idea that you will not perform well and be returned by the provincial team. She is different from you, I said that she can persevere, she can persevere, she is a person who wants to participate in the Olympics, such hardship, she has to endure it. ”
Liang Fei, who was poked in the sore spot, didn't dare to speak anymore, Kong Yixian was afraid that he would be angry, so he gasped and got up, sweating even in the air-conditioned room.
"I know that athletes are very bitter and tired, but I didn't expect to have to endure pain, and God knows how many bitter tears are accompanied by every arrow shot on the playing field. So every athlete is worthy of admiration, isn't that Chang Yi?"
"But it's an honor. Chang Yi rubbed her wrist softly, her expression was inevitably lonely, "This kind of glory is not something that everyone can have." ”
Kong Yixian secretly held her breath, she was most afraid of hearing Chang Yi's low and soft words, but fortunately, the mobile phone in the bag rang at the right time, relieving the dull atmosphere.
When she saw the caller ID on her phone, she made a rare jaw-dropping exaggerated expression, "It's my mom!
Chang Yi was puzzled, "Your mother is not your homeroom teacher, why are you scared like this." ”
Kong Yixian rolled down her throat, pressed the answer button, and immediately said, "Mom, I'm working now, I'll tell you when I get off work at night!" and then hung up the phone with lightning speed.
I don't know, I thought it was a time bomb on the other side.
She pinched her phone and paced back and forth, more nervous than before she went to the field, "It's over, I didn't dare to tell my mother the truth, she still thinks I work in the company." ”
Liang Fei didn't understand her reaction, "Are you coming here...... It's unseemly?"
Kong Yixian sighed in annoyance and held her head, "My mother's thinking is very traditional, she thinks that finding a stable job in the unit is more important than anything else, and she used to say that athletes are the most loss-making profession in the world."
With her temper, if she knew that I beat my former boss and made me unable to get along in the industry, and came to practice archery wholeheartedly, she wouldn't have tore me into pieces!"
Chang Yi couldn't help laughing, "Don't worry, she doesn't have the ability to tear you apart." You come to the city alone and live alone, as long as you are careful every time you call, she won't know. ”
Having said that, Kong Yixian was still not at ease, the more she thought about it, the more creepy she became, and when she covered her head, she accidentally touched the blood blister on her fingertips.
"But what if she comes to the city to see me? I find out that I don't wear professional clothes anymore, and I run to the archery hall all day long, should I go out and hide for a few days and say that I am on a business trip?"
"Come on, your mother is really going to tear you into pieces, you let her come to me and I'll bear it for you. Chang Yi caught a glimpse of her fingertips, and pursed her lips imperceptibly, "You go back to rest today." ”
Kong Yixian, who had no heart or strength to train again, nodded, and happily said goodbye to Liang Fei and went home.
On the bus, she remembered the polar bear doll in the living room, and felt that Chang Yi's careful thinking was quite pleasing, so she got off the bus and took the elevator upstairs with joy, but her face turned pale with surprise the moment she opened the door.
“…… Mother. ”
Kong's mother was busy in the kitchen, and she was a little surprised when she heard the voice, and when she looked back, she frowned when she saw Kong Yixian dressed in sportswear, "Why did you get off work?
Facing her mother's questioning, Kong Yixian couldn't wait to turn around and run away, but she didn't dare to tell the truth, "I, I accompanied the client to exercise today, and the boss sympathized with me and let me get off work early." ”
"Oh. Although she was puzzled by her dodging expression, Mother Kong didn't think much about it for the time being, "Mom stewed soup for you, and you can drink it in a while." ”
Kong Yixian responded with a dry smile, sat across the table with her mother, and didn't dare to talk for a long time.
Mama Kong was eating while nagging about her life's events, and accidentally caught a glimpse of a band-aid on her finger, "Eh, what's wrong with your finger?"
Almost without thinking, Kong Yixian immediately put her hands behind her back, and immediately realized that she wanted to cover her again, "It's nothing, I accidentally scratched it during exercise!"
"Stick it out and I'll see. ”
"Mom, where did you just go, you want to give me a blind date?"
"Stick out!"
Kong's mother's angry shouting made Kong Yixian secretly scream badly, so she had to stretch out her hand and uncover the band-aid was three large blood blisters.
Seeing such a big blood blister, Mother Kong's eyes turned red in an instant, "What's the matter? What the hell are you sneaking around from the moment you enter the door? ”
"Eh, mom, you can't go!" Kong Yixian grabbed her grumpy mother, and her mood at this time was more desperate than the mistake in the game, "I'll be honest, don't hit me......"
Mother Kong got rid of her pull, and was afraid of touching her fingers, "It depends on what you tell the truth, it's worth it for me to beat you." ”
At seven o'clock in the evening, it was the time when the archery hall came to business, Liang Fei was very enthusiastic to guide the new students, Chang Yi was talking with regular customers, and when he turned around, he saw an aunt pushing the door in, looking at her expression seemed to be very resentful, "May I ask who is the boss?"
As soon as Chang Yi wanted to respond, he saw Kong Yixian rubbing in with a painful face, and he understood the look of asking for help, and he already knew it in his heart.
"Hello Auntie, I'm the boss, I'm—"
"You stinky boy, ruin my daughter's life and delay her youth!"
The angry Mother Kong pointed at Chang Yi and scolded, and the guests in the hall looked at this side when they heard this meaningful word. Even Liang Fei's eyes lit up, but he quickly restrained his thoughts on gossip.
The customers of the shop put down their bows and left in a playful way, and those who loved to watch the excitement stayed to watch the show.
Kong Yixian saw that the business in the store was disturbed, so she pulled her mother and begged angrily, "Mom, you see that there are other people here, let's talk about it after work, okay?"
Kong's mother broke free of her daughter, and angrily told her not to speak, "Get off work, who are waiting for you to get off work?" Kong Yixian, what are you thinking, don't do a good job, and run here to play archery. ”
"It's not playing, it's training seriously. Chang Yi snatched the words, turned around and said sorry to the guests, and asked them to go back first, and then closed the door and poured a cup of tea for Mother Kong.
"Auntie, your attitude towards athletes Kong Yixian mentioned to me, I don't ask you to understand more, but she really has this talent, she works very hard and seriously to participate in the competition, I guarantee that she will be able to shine in the sports world. So can you give her a chance?"
Mother Kong pursed her lips, squinted at Chang Yi, and scared Liang Fei in the corner away, drank dry tea in a sip for a while, and slammed the teacup on the table, "Can't!"
This kind of answer made Kong Yixian very desperate, and before she could speak, she was stopped by her own mother again.
"I Yixian originally had a good job, a successful career and a stable income, but if I didn't do such a job, I would hurt my hands!"
She pulled Kong Yixian's right hand, and the three blood blisters were bigger than in the afternoon, "This is a good job, right, don't you feel sorry for me! My daughter has never suffered much since she was a child, but now she doesn't say a word with such a big bubble on her hand!"
In the end, she is a mother, she also really feels sorry for her daughter, and tears overflowed as she spoke, "How hard and tiring it is to engage in sports, do you have any hope! She is in her twenties before she comes to the competition, how many sins she has to suffer! I don't agree, I don't agree to anything! Yixian will not come from tomorrow." ”
"Mom!"
Kong Yixian broke away and sat next to Chang Yi, "I'm so old, I know what I'm going to do, I know in my heart what I'm going to do, I also know that it's very hard and tiring, but I'm willing! I used to want to work hard, but as a result, I was disgusted by others and didn't have a chance to get ahead, now I just want to stand on the field well, at least no one will humiliate me, even if I suffer hardship, I'm willing!"
Chang Yi did not agree, but silently took her hand, looking at the blood bubble distressed, could it be that Liang Fei was right? He shouldn't be so radical.
Mother Kong heard the grievances in her daughter's words, but still shook her head, "If the previous job is not good, you can change it, why do you have to find guilt, Mom will put it aside today, or you will go home with Mom and go to find a job tomorrow." Either...... Leave your mom alone. ”
With that, she got up and pushed the door open. Kong Yixian was so anxious that she was sweating, looked back at Chang Yi, and hurriedly chased him out before he could speak.
Chang Yi didn't have time to call her, and Kong Yixian had already left his sight.
Liang Fei didn't catch up with them, and returned to the store a little aggrieved, "I said don't be so anxious, you see that her hand can't rest for several days?
Yes, Chang Yi is reluctant. He sat down dejectedly, his mind full of Kong's mother's clamor and Kong Yixian's helpless pleas.
He propped his head and sighed for a long time, "We're really the same people......"
