After class on Saturday, Wang Yourong took a bus back to his hometown in the countryside, and he stayed in school to train for a month, and did not go home to see. took advantage of the pleasant weather at the end of March to go home to see my mother.

It was already more than eight o'clock when he got home at night, and it was all dark, Qian Aihua prepared a meal and waited for his son to come home, afraid that the food would be cold and buckle the bowl on the table, and when he saw his son coming back, he hurriedly washed the dishes and chopsticks to serve him food.

Wang Yourong put down his schoolbag, washed his hands and sat down and began to eat, the food cooked by his mother was still much more fragrant than the canteen, Qian Aihua had already eaten, just sat aside and watched his son take a big bite of rice, and asked: "Son, why haven't your friends come to play recently? The weather is good in March, how good is it to come for a spring outing." ”

Wang Yourong kept his head stuffy and didn't speak, just focused on eating, Qian Aihua saw that his son's expression was wrong, and asked again: "What's the matter? Quarrel? Isn't your relationship very good, the boy's quarrel passed quickly." ”

Wang Yourong stopped his chopsticks, looked at his mother, and then said, "No quarrel, Lu Yuan went to the United States." ”

Qian Aihua was taken aback, not because Wang Yourong said that Lu Yuan had gone to the United States, but because he found that Wang Yourong's voice had become different from before!

On weekdays, Wang Yourong is at school and rarely calls home, this child doesn't like to call, he always sends messages, and occasionally he will call when he is particularly urgent. Unexpectedly, I haven't heard my son's voice for a month, and this kid has changed his voice!

"Son, you've changed your voice! Oh, that's great, that's great, it's great, I'll kill a chicken for you tomorrow and make up for it." Heck, you're not going to develop again, and if you develop again, you won't be able to sleep in the bed at home. ”

Wang Yourong's face flushed, he picked up the bowl and lowered his head to eat, washed the bowl himself after eating, and helped his mother do housework for a while, so he went upstairs and entered the room.

This month, Wang Yourong's biggest change is his voice, he finally began to speak like a normal boy, and began to speak roughly. But this didn't make him feel better, on the contrary, he was even more uncomfortable, because everyone was used to his voice, and this change, he was going to become the focus of other people's attention, which was not what he wanted to see.

And he also feels that his energy is getting more and more abundant, and he has endless strength every day, and he vents all this strength on the basketball court and the gym, and the amount of training this month is almost the same as Bai Ye, or even more.

He can feel that his basketball skills are constantly improving, his feeling on the court is getting better and better, and in the team's training game, Zhang Fan can no longer beat him one-on-one.

But Wang Yourong still feels that there is a big piece of missing in his life, whether it is classes, training, eating, vacations, without Lu Yuan, Wang Yourong feels not only loss, but also the joy of no one to share after his progress. After all, Bai Ye and Lu Yuan are different, the two are inseparable on weekdays, eating and training together, but without Lu Yuan, it just doesn't work, it's just missing a corner.

Sitting in his room, Wang Yourong was lying on the bed, wanting to send a message to Lu Yuan, but he didn't know what to say, he didn't know what time the United States was now, he didn't know how his skills were improving, I didn't know if he was picking, and I didn't know when he would come back.

Thinking about it, Wang Yourong recalled the situation when the three of them came to play at home together, and he was really happy and happy like never before. Unexpectedly, Lu Yuan went to the United States like this, and it has been a month. Wang Yourong only felt strange and uncomfortable in his heart, he was bored in an instant, turned on the TV and found a movie, and fell asleep after watching it.

……………………

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Wang Yourong took the basketball and took the bus from the village to Xingpei Middle School to play basketball. Qian Aihua saw his son go out with a basketball early in the morning and said, "I haven't played enough at school? I can't rest when I come back, and I'm going back to school in the afternoon!"

Wang Yourong scratched his head and said, "I... I happened to go to see Coach Qin, and I heard that he had remarried. ”

Qian Aihua listened, nodded, went back to the kitchen and took dozens of eggs from the refrigerator, put them in a plastic bag and asked Wang Yourong to take them for Coach Qin.

Wang Yourong took a bag of eggs and basketballs, got on the bus, was afraid of sitting on a bad stool, stood all the way to Xingpei Middle School, got off the bus and called Qin Shaoqiang, and after a while, Qin Shaoqiang rushed to the school gate to pick up Wang Yourong in.

"Oh, Yourong, how do you feel strong again, come to play? Oh, what eggs do you bring, you can't finish the eggs at home......"

Qin Shaoqiang looked radiant and in good spirits, which was completely different from the spirit and spirit that Lu Yuan and Bai Ye saw when they came earlier, because in January this year, he and his ex-wife got back together and lived with his wife and daughter again, and his natural spirit was much better.

Wang Yourong carried eggs to his dormitory, and met Qin Shaoqiang's wife, Lin Hua, who was picking vegetables, was a Chinese teacher in the town's primary school, and had also taught Wang Yourong in the past. Wang Yourong called his wife, and suddenly made his voice exposed, Qin Shaoqiang patted Wang Yourong on the shoulder and said that he had grown up, Lin Hua laughed on the side.

Wang Yourong felt very embarrassed, so he took the basketball to the court to play. His left and right hand hooks have become more and more proficient, and when no one is defending, he has his back to the basket and does not look at the basket, one hook is accurate. However, he has not been used in games and intra-team battles, and he still lacks confidence in himself.

After practicing all morning, Wang Yourong went to the faucet in the teaching building and took a shower, he took off his shirt, revealing his sturdy body, and washed away the sweat stains on his body with cold tap water.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind him, and someone shouted, "What are you doing! Playing hooligan without clothes!" The voice was crisp, it was a girl, Wang Yourong looked back, and sure enough, it was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, standing at the entrance of the building, looking at Wang Yourong, two big eyes staring at him. There was also a little sister-in-law standing beside the girl, five or six years old, with two pigtails, hiding next to the girl's legs.

Wang Yourong was so frightened that he hurriedly grabbed his clothes and covered the two key points on his chest, his face was flushed, and he said sorry, sorry, he didn't care about throwing his body dry, and ran away with his head down.

"Hey, you didn't take anything!"

The girl said again, her voice was bright and crisp, and Wang Yourong, who was halfway through the run, stopped, only to find that he didn't take the ball, and walked to the pool with his head down, picked up the ball and left.

On the way, Wang Yourong shook off the water droplets on his body, dried himself in the sun for a while, and then got dressed and walked to Coach Qin's house, it was time for lunch.

As a result, as soon as he entered the door, Wang Yourong saw that the girl was standing at Coach Qin's house, playing with the little girl, he was startled and almost ran away from the door.

Qin Shaoqiang saw that Wang Yourong was leaving, and shouted: "Hey, Yourong, why are you going somewhere, it's time to eat, your teacher Lin has cooked all the dishes, come on." ”

Wang Yourong had no choice but to enter the door, and the girl saw Wang Yourong and blurted out: "That rascal!"

Wang Yourong hurriedly explained: "I... I'm not... Not a rogue ......"

Qin Shaoqiang and Lin Hua thought that the two of them had some kind of holiday, and after asking clearly, they realized that it was a complete misunderstanding. The girl is the daughter of Lin Hua's sister, named Wei Linli, who is in the third year of junior high school in Xingpei Middle School, and came to her aunt's house for lunch on the weekend, and just played with her sister at school, and her sister wanted to go to the toilet, so she took her to the bathroom, and saw Wang Yourong taking off her shirt and taking a shower......

"Oh, Xiao Li just didn't cover up his words, how do people know that you are going to the bathroom, thinking that there is no one. Don't talk nonsense later. Lin Hua blamed his niece.

"No one can take off their clothes and take a shower, in public, this is uncivilized, you can't go back to your uncle-in-law to wash, and there is hot water, it's a hooligan!"

Wei Linli's mouth looked unforgiving, insisting that Wang Yourong was a hooligan, and said that Wang Yourong was red-faced, and he felt that he was really a hooligan.

Qin Shaoqiang and the mud, let everyone eat vegetables and eat, today Lin Hua cooked a lot of good dishes, there is a woman in the family is different, the dormitory is not big but is well organized, Wang Yourong feels less crowded when he sits inside.

Wang Yourong is a stuffy gourd, and when Wei Linli said this, he didn't dare to speak, but Lin Hua was very enthusiastic and asked questions.

"Hey, Yourong, you and Xiaoli are one level behind, you also graduated from Xingpei Middle School before, why don't you know each other?"

Wang Yourong and Wei Linli both shook their heads, in the past, Wang Yourong would occasionally come to Qin Shaoqiang's house for dinner, and Wei Linli would also come, but the two had never met once. When asked again, both of them graduated from Xingpei Primary School, Wei Linli remembered that there was a very tall and strong boy in the school before, but he was rarely seen. In the junior high school sports meeting, he is always the shot put champion in the first year, but I didn't expect this person to be Wang Yourong.

Thinking of this, Wei Linli's attitude was much better, and he said sorry to Wang Yourong, but Wang Yourong was embarrassed and said that it didn't matter. This girl has a straightforward personality, with clear love and hate, which makes Wang Yourong's heart skip a beat.

Since they were classmates, Wei Linli's words increased, and asked Wang Yourong if there were any other students who graduated from Xingpei Middle School or primary school in Licheng Middle School, Wang Yourong thought about it and squeezed out a name: "Zhou Junlu." ”

"Zhou Junlu?"

"Hmm... A skinny, well... Very... Very good-looking girl... Uh, I, I don't like her. ”

"What's the matter, do you like her or not...... Zhou Junlu?"

"Oh, she seems to have changed her surname, she seemed to be surnamed Huang before, right?" Wang Yourong remembered the scene when Lu Yuan was at Zhou Junlu's house that day and shouted "Huang Junlu" to her.

When Wei Linli heard this name, the chopsticks in his hand stopped, and he said slowly: "Oh, it turned out to be her." ”
