Chapter Ninety-Three: Becoming Thicker

There are still a few days to go before the high school entrance examination, and Xiaoqing's class, like other classes that are about to graduate, is shrouded in everyone's hearts.

Xiaoqing and several members of the class committee are already planning a graduation party.

This semester, their class has won a good ranking in several competitions and class evaluations, and has won a lot of bonuses. In addition, some of them are usually late and fined for failing the exam, but their class fees are still relatively abundant.

Among them, Xiao Kun's contribution is the largest. Every competition in the past, such as recess exercises, hygiene evaluation, discipline evaluation...... As long as it is a group activity, Xiao Kun is the one who pulls back. Now that Xiao Kun is finally in step with everyone, the overall performance of their class has skyrocketed. Everyone said that it was the right of a tree and the saving of a forest.

Fines for failing exams and fines for being late to school are common practices in many schools and classes. It seems that nothing that is not linked to the economy will be effective. The head teacher, Mr. Zhang, did not divert these fines for other purposes, and all of them were managed by several members of Xiaoqing's class committee. In the past, Xiao Kun was a big fine in the class, and everyone jokingly called him a sponsor. Now, Xiao Kun is not late for class, he can pass the exam, and he no longer has to be a sponsor.

Xiao Kun has always had an antagonistic feeling towards his teachers, classmates, and school, and he always wants to escape from school and live a free and casual life where no one is in charge. For teachers, classmates, and school, he has no nostalgia at all.

For a long time in junior high school, his mind went blank. His heart was always filled with negative feelings of inferiority, rage, and hatred. The shadow left in his heart in his childhood changed his personality for a long time, making him close his heart, unable to give kindness to others, and unable to feel the love from classmates and friends. He always felt like an abandoned ugly duckling, hiding in a dark corner and not seeing the sun.

Xiao Kun hates him the most, and he always feels that many of his misfortunes and tribulations are caused by him. Usually he doesn't talk to Mang Kui, but the father and son live under the same roof but they are like passers-by, and sometimes they beat and scold. The most intimate father-son relationship in the world has become an indissolvable eternal ice for them.

In the last semester of junior high school, Xiao Kun changed. He seemed to wake up from his dream suddenly, and suddenly found that there was only a little bit left in his three-year junior high school life. He began to study hard, began to win the trust of his teachers and classmates, and began to value the collective life of the school.

It is like a closed room with unventilated walls, opening a window that allows sunlight to let in and fresh air in.

When the door of the heart is opened, the soul will welcome the sunshine, and when the goodwill is released, it will be surrounded by love.

Xiao Kun realized that this world was not as he imagined, full of indifference and hostility.

Since Mang Kui injured Xiao Kun that time, he has also begun to review his behavior. He was really frightened that time, afraid that he would really beat his son to death. His own life was riddled with devastation because of him, and he also caused his son to suffer with him. He realized his mistake, but he didn't dare to admit it to his son for the sake of face.

Gradually, Mangkui reined in and changed his bad behavior. I work hard every day, and the money I earn is not spent indiscriminately. He stopped smoking and drank less, and he was trying to be like a good father.

He also tried to take care of Xiao Kun's life, washing and cooking for him. Even though he is so clumsy, sometimes he is not as good as Xiao Kun. But his efforts still paid off, the father and son no longer looked at each other coldly every day, and occasionally Xiao Kun would laugh at him because the clothes he washed were not clean and the dishes he fried were not to taste.

With such a joke, Mang Kui is not as angry as before, but feels that this is a rare family happiness between father and son.

Sometimes, looking at his son who was doing homework with Xiaoqing in the living room, Mang Kui had a rare sense of happiness in his heart. It seems that my son has grown up unconsciously, and I have missed how much time I can get along with my son before! Fortunately, he realized it, and fortunately, this qiē can be reversed.

Xiao Kun knew that this qiē change came from Xiao Qing.

In school, only Xiaoqing has always been better to him. Maybe they all come from incomplete families, and there is a kind of sameness.

That time Xiaoqing's dropout gave Xiaokun a great shock, and he realized that what he had been ignoring was the desire of others to work hard.

Later, Xiaoqing's encouragement became the motivation for him to give up, and Xiaoqing's counseling and companionship made Xiaokun, who had always been lonely in his heart, feel the warmth and preciousness of friendship.

Xiaoqing said that he wanted to go to high school in the district and be classmates with him, at first Xiao Kun felt that it was out of reach, but now Xiao Kun feels that the goal is just a few steps away, maybe he can reach it in a few steps.

Xiao Kun is sometimes a little worried, afraid that he will fail the exam. I can no longer be in the same school as Xiaoqing.

There are also those classmates, and Mr. Zhang, maybe they will be separated in the future.

The sorrow and farewell on campus also infected Xiao Kun. He used to be such a big kid that he didn't care about anything. Now, he also feels that the parting love fills his heart.

Who said that teenagers don't know what it's like to be sad? Teenagers can also be confused.

"Dad, I want to buy a gift for Xiaoqing, maybe we won't be in the same school after graduation."

After dinner, Xiao Kun said to Mang Kui, who was washing the dishes.

"Yes, Xiaoqing is a good boy, but he has helped you a lot during this time!"

"So, can you give me some money?"

"Tell me, how much?" Mangkui wiped his hands on his apron and pulled out his wallet.

"It doesn't take much, and we don't give too many expensive gifts to each other. I'll buy Xiaoqing an electronic watch, I see that her watch chain is broken. ”

"Okay, I'll give you a hundred, and you can keep the rest for yourself." Mang Kui took out a hundred yuan and gave it to Xiao Kun.

Xiao Kun bought an electronic watch in the store, which looks like a little angel with a cartoon pattern. Xiao Kun feels that Xiaoqing is like a little angel, with wings and sunshine, and can give people hope wherever she goes.

Xiao Kun wrote a sentence on the lid of the watch box: "I work hard to grow, just to reach the same height as you, welcome the sunshine together, and share the wind and rain." ”

Xiao Kun put the electronic watch at the head of the bed, turned off the light and went to sleep.

The early summer night was not so hot, and the wind blew in through the window, carrying the chaotic smell of the town, and also blowing Xiao Kun's mosquito net. Fireflies flew up from those fields and by the river. They also flew into the streets and courtyards of the town. Small fluorescent stars dot the town at night. Although the fluorescent light is small, it also makes people feel beautiful and hopeful in this dark night.

Xiao Kun fell asleep in this familiar atmosphere. In the dream, he dreamed that himself, Xiaoqing, and his classmates had all turned into a tree on Cheche Mountain, growing towards the sun.
