"July is a fire, August is not young. This sentence comes from the Book of Songs, which roughly means the seventh month of the lunar calendar, which begins from summer to autumn and lasts until the end of August. The seventh month of the lunar calendar is equivalent to the August of the Gregorian calendar, but now it is the middle of August of the Gregorian calendar, and the whole mountain city has no autumn at all, and some are just "autumn tigers", and the temperature is surprisingly high.

Although the air conditioner was turned on to the maximum, the fat man sat in the car and still couldn't stop complaining, what the hell is this weather, the heat is dead. It was Gu Xiaoshi's turn to drive, the master sat in the co-pilot, and the fat man and the two senior sisters were crowded in the back row, sweating like rain.

One master, four apprentices. The eldest sister is married and is the oldest; Gu Xiaoshi was born on New Year's Day in 2000 and is the second; the little girl was born in May and is the third; poor Cancer is the fat man who was born the latest and is the oldest. I only heard the third senior sister quip: "Little junior brother, look at you, your body is wet, you are so afraid of heat, you should lose weight! Attention, attention, don't touch me, stinky sweat!"

Finally in the afternoon, the last class of the driving school was over, and the master said earnestly: "Yesterday's traffic test, God knows if you can pass, but tomorrow's road test, it is not me who is sitting here, there will be an examiner, you don't have to be nervous, you can open how you want." ”

Speaking of yesterday's written test of traffic rules, the fat man repeated his old trick, wearing his specially customized glasses, coupled with Gu Xiaoshi's vigorous cooperation, successfully "borrowed" a lot, it is estimated that there is no problem in passing the customs, just wait for tomorrow to pass the road test, the fat man can get a driver's license, and become a driver with honor.

Twenty years ago, you didn't even need a written test to apply for a driver's license; 10 years ago, it was much more standardized, and you had to pass both the written and road tests; today, it is even stricter, and there is no room for sloppiness. Fortunately, the traffic rules test is not the college entrance examination, and there is no such battle as a few teachers to invigilate, which gives the fat man a chance.

In fact, it is strictly good, this is responsible for one's own life and property and that of others.

You see, there are more and more cars, but the traffic is getting worse and worse, which is of course inseparable from the rapid increase in the number of cars, but it is also important to regulate driving. There are many drivers, but the level is far from the same, uneven. Have you ever encountered a long stream of traffic waiting in line for a red light, and suddenly found that the car in the lane next to it had started, and when I looked up, I saw that the light was already green, but there was no movement in the lane where I was......

There is something even more hateful, as soon as it gets dark, the headlights are turned on, of course, by the way, the high beams, cool, shine so far, how clear! But have you ever considered others? The reverse vehicle is shaken by your high beams, what if there is a mistake, what if there is an accident? Could it be that it is none of my business anyway? If everyone uses high beams when driving, I wonder if the traffic accidents will increase exponentially?

It doesn't matter if you bump into a car, even if you crash the car, it's not a big deal, don't hurt yourself, or hurt others, there is no regret medicine in the world.

As long as this kid holds the steering wheel, it is like a changed person, his eyes are sharp, his movements are skillful, changing lanes, turning, overtaking, reversing, all of them are bad, and even the most difficult ramp start for novices is quite sophisticated, and the most interesting thing for the master is that Gu Xiaoshi only controls the steering wheel with one hand, and always puts the other hand on the gear. Of course, the master would not know that in those beautiful days in his memory, sitting in his father's car, his father's laughter and every move were deeply engraved in Gu Xiaoshi's mind, how could he forget?

The fat man and the girl are all okay, there should be no problem in passing the test; the only one is the senior sister, who says that the good thing is slow and logical, and the bad thing is not good, one word: "stay"! From the operational level alone, it is standardized, and the posture is also standard, but the driving light is not standardized, and it is necessary to pay attention to a smart one, and now there is not an advertising slogan called "the integration of people and vehicles"......

The results proved that the master's concerns were justified, the senior sister was brushed off, the written results were valid for one year, and she had to study for another period, and then the road test would be re-examined; Gu Xiaoshi and the other three passed successfully and were told that they would receive the certificate three days later.

His mother has a white BMW X5, the reason why she chose an SUV is that she can sit high and see far, and it is safe and secure; his father's car is also a BMW, but it is a sedan, model 740Li, it seems to be reversed, it is said that men drive off-road more imposingly, but now more and more women choose SUVs, the reason is unknown, is it not afraid of collision?

The English class is also over, Gu Xiaoshi feels that his English level has made great progress, the same is true for the fat man, every day with classmates and foreign teachers there chirping, talking and talking, listening and listening, from the beginning of the squeak, spitting, intermittent, to later, can almost coherently say a long sentence, Gu Xiaoshi believes that with the current level of living abroad is not a big problem, but I don't know if I can understand the class, especially when encountering relatively professional English, it seems that "the revolution is not over, comrades still need to work hard."

On the day he got his driver's license, the fat man's father directly threw out a bank card and asked the fat man and Gu Xiaoshi to spend, one is to celebrate the two of them becoming official "drivers"; The fat man's mother immediately put away the driver's licenses of the fat man and Gu Xiaoshi, and prepared to take them to justice in the afternoon.

Today is Monday, generally speaking, Monday is the busiest in the week, but there are a lot of people hanging out on the street, Gu Xiaoshi really admires these people, so leisurely, and can make money. Some people are tired all day long, but they can only get a meager salary, and they commute to and from work every day and squeeze the bus, and they don't know how many years they need to struggle to get to a home of their own in this prosperous place.

The fat man took Gu Xiaoshi to a famous large commercial center in the city, and when he saw that it was still early, the two went to watch a movie first. Lunch was also served here, and I chose a high-quality island cuisine. There is a large table, from sushi to sashimi, from grilled eel to beef rice, and dishes that Gu Xiaoshi can't name, except for sake, basically the famous dishes are ordered by fat people. After eating a meal, a thousand or hundred, or a discounted price, Gu Xiaoshi sighed in his heart, this is too extravagant, just him and the fat man, why bother with so much for a meal?

The fat man couldn't help but say, pulled Gu Xiaoshi straight to an NB store, picked and choose, after soliciting Gu Xiaoshi's opinion, a pair of jogging shoes in the photo, 574 classic model, black and white color matching, nothing high-tech, good-looking, this guy actually continued to choose other styles as an excuse, let Gu Xiaoshi help try on. Gu Xiaoshi put on new shoes and walked around the store, not long or short, the width was appropriate, and he trotted around, his feet felt good and comfortable. Seeing this, the fat man didn't say a word, just paid the bill and left, Gu Xiaoshi was very confused, you don't have to try on shoes in person, is there such a person?

Walking out of the store, the fat man handed the shopping bag to Gu Xiaoshi, Gu Xiaoshi was stunned and asked, "What is this for?"

The fat man smiled: "Don't do anything, buy a pair of shoes for you." ”

Gu Xiaoshi shook his head and said, "I don't want it, I can buy it myself, I don't need you to spend money, you can take it and return it!"

"Don't!" the fat man refused: "I bought it all, why did you return it? Besides, don't you like it too? The size is right, and it is comfortable to wear, not to mention, this color is plain, it is quite suitable for you." ”

Gu Xiaoshi's face darkened, glared at the fat man, and said, "You look down on me?"

The fat man wanted to laugh just now, but now he wants to cry.

"It's over, this guy thinks too much, and completely misunderstands me!" The fat man knows Gu Xiaoshi too well, this person is unwilling to accept other people's favors, so give it to him like this, he will definitely not accept it, maybe he will have to be angry with me, he must think of a way.

The fat man was silent, and the two of them were clubbing in place, and no one spoke.

Suddenly, the fat man threw the shopping bag to Gu Xiaoshi, Gu Xiaoshi subconsciously caught it, and was about to get angry, when he heard the fat man say: "One minute, listen to me, and then whatever you want!"

Gu Xiaoshi didn't know why, but he was still ready to listen to what the fat man had to say.

The fat man sorted out his thoughts and said, "First, I didn't look down on you, never, it was you who looked down on you!" Second, these shoes are a gift from me, I will go first in a few days, and then you will also leave, when you are away, a pair of comfortable shoes is good; third, I didn't use the card my dad gave me to settle the bill, this money is my own, the New Year's money every year, so, these shoes are bought by me for you, not my father; fourth, you have also seen, these shoes are not expensive, I can buy you something several times more expensive, but I know, you are not that kind of person, you will not pay attention to those; finally, Lao Tzu did not read the book well, but I still know' Great oaks from little acorns grow.. 'This sentence, you have your own way to go, we may not see each other for a long time, you wear these shoes, you should often think of my brother and me, right?"

Although these words were improvised, they came from the bottom of his heart, and after he finished speaking, the fat man's round face was swollen and red, and he couldn't stop panting.

Wonderful, a fat man who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to say such decent words, clearly organized, well-organized, well-worded, quite infectious, is this still a fat man?

Gu Xiaoshi stared at the fat man, he was very moved, he should be glad that there is such a good brother, a gift is nothing, Gu Xiaoshi values this friendship more, the friendship between brothers is precious.

Gu Xiaoshi suddenly felt a little moist in the corners of his eyes, and quickly wiped it with his hand, explaining to himself: "The air conditioner in the mall is turned on too much, and dust is blowing into your eyes. He didn't return the shopping bag to the fat man, but walked over, patted the fat man on the shoulder, and said, "Go, go home!"
