The last year of high school is a critical period for the sprint of fate, and his father's supervision and discipline of Baoliang are also a little stricter. Not only did he not allow Bao Liang to watch TV anymore, but he also controlled Bao Liang's computer, and between father and son, he was often angry about the use of the computer.

The thing that affected Ho Liang's final grades the most unexpectedly happened when the last winter break of high school arrived, and Ho Liang's mother died.

My mother had a disease called herpes and suddenly died. After my father took my mother to the hospital, my mother had a fever for three days, and after three days, she began to fall unconscious, and it didn't take long for her to drift away.

Mother is the last color full of warmth in Bao Liang's life, and the world without a mother is very empty in Bao Liang's eyes. When his mother's body was pushed away by the nurses in the hospital, Bao Liang cried bitterly, and his father vigorously hugged Bao Liang into his arms, as if to prevent Bao Liang's soul from following his mother's thin body away.

Maybe the father only found out when he hugged Baoliang that his son had grown into a man, and he was already as tall as him. Although the body is still thin, the thin chest opens like a fan, supporting the broad shoulders.

His mother's death made Bao Liang unmotivated, and he often held the earring that his mother had quietly given him before she fell into a coma in the palm of his hand. The palm of the hand holding the earring could feel the rhythm of his heartbeat, and then he was able to calm down and reverently relive his mother's earnest request.

Perhaps it was the power of returning to the light, and the mother's dying voice was so clear and strange. On the afternoon of the end of her heartbeat, Bao Liang was in front of her bed, and there was no one else in the hospital room at that time, and Bao Liang suddenly found that his mother's already cloudy eyes flashed with the brilliance of life. Bao Liang thought that his mother's health had miraculously improved, but he didn't expect that the sound from his mother's mouth was her last words.

The mother said, "Baoliang, my son...... Mommy is leaving, you take good care of yourself and take care of your dad. Would you like to promise your mother one more thing, you ...... You have to find your sister, you find her, give her this earring, it's a dowry from her mother. You ask her to wear these earrings and go to her mother's grave to see her. I...... I really want to...... I want to go back to our small courtyard in Jianning again, I really want to see your sister again......"

When the mother was buried, the father looked for the earring and wanted the mother to take it away, but he couldn't find it. repeatedly pressed Bao Liang, and Bao Liang took it out. He said to his father, "This is what my mother left me." The father asked, "What about the other one?" Bao Liang said: Mom gave it to my sister.

Father was speechless, he looked down and thought for a moment, but didn't ask for the earring back.

My father buried my mother in the Ping'an Cemetery in the provincial capital, and for paying 150 yuan a year, I could rent a compartment where the ashes were stored. Before the bones were placed, Bao Liang quietly took out some of the ashes behind his father's back and hid them in a glass bottle. Because my mother said more than once before she fell ill that she wanted to move back to Jianning's hometown to live. She said that people always have to return to their roots, and your father will retire in the future, and he must also want to go back to his hometown to live, so he should have bought Jianning's house and kept it. Besides, your sister may return to Jianning when she wants, and if she wants to go home, she can find us somewhere else.

For her mother, Jianning is not only her hometown, but also her hometown, her hometown, and her real home, and it is also the place where she is most likely to reunite with her lost daughter.

Jianning is the same for Baoliang.

Winter break is here.

My father's unit took good care of my father, and arranged for my father and several other public security heroes to go to the south for recuperation, and each of them could accompany a family member. Bao Liang didn't want to go, so he lied to his father, saying that the school had arranged tutoring for several transfer students during the winter vacation, and his father was of course happy and supported him to focus on his studies.

My father went to the South.

The night before leaving, my father made fried noodles, drank some wine on the noodles, and blushed and poured out his heart to Baoliang. He said, "Baoliang, you have grown up, and there are some things that Dad can tell you." Ever since your sister first ran away from home, your mom has hated me. She always thought that I had to break up your sister and Quan Hu, so that our family could not be reunited. Although she also worked in the public security bureau in the past, she had never worked in a real public security bureau, and she couldn't figure out the fact that I had found out your second uncle, thinking that I had harmed my brother and my daughter. I also know that power is my brother, and we have sworn since we were ten years old that we could not be born on the same day, but that we would die on the same day. I also know that we Chinese are people in the world, and we are talking about the word righteousness. But I also know that I am a state cadre, I must be loyal to the country, I am a people's policeman, and I must obey orders. I have to distinguish between what is public and what is private. The national emblem on your father's head and the two stars and two bars on his shoulder were given by the people, and I must do my best for this honor. It's painful to lose power, but who can I talk to about this pain? Baoliang, you will also understand in the future, if you really become a police officer in the future, you will definitely choose this way. But your sister doesn't understand, your mother doesn't understand either, they can't listen to reason, they are women, and women often don't listen to reason, they only believe in feelings. I hurt my relationship with your mother about this, and she didn't tell me about it, but I could tell that she hated me. Your mom barely spoke to me in the last few years! Bao Liang, think about how my father has lived in the past few years, my father has made such great contributions for the sake of the country and his work, regardless of his personal feelings and personal safety, and the organization and the masses have affirmed me so much and encouraged me. I was outside, and all I got was flowers and applause, but when I got home, you didn't understand me. I lived in the same room with your mother, sleeping in the same bed, but she barely spoke to me for more than three years! Son, you say, what kind of life is this life of Daddy......"

My father was blushing, his eyes were red, and his eyes were full of tears. At this time, Bao Liang seemed to realize that half of the black hair on his father's head had turned white. Only then did Bao Liang know that his mother's departure was actually a relief for his father.

The day after his father went to the south to recuperate, Bao Liang took the glass bottle filled with his mother's ashes and returned to Jianning alone by train.

After three long years, Jianning does not seem to have changed much. A few new buildings have been built in the city centre, and several new construction sites can be seen along the way, but everything is as good as ever. When Bao Liang took the bus past the Million Mansion Restaurant, he saw that the entrance of the restaurant had been renovated, and the neon characters of "Million Mansion Garden" above the gate had been removed, and the new "owner" had no publicity, and he didn't know if it was operating as before, and whether the abalone business was still booming. The bus pulled Bao Liang all the way to the entrance of the alley of his house, and he walked from the alley to the courtyard gate of his house, just like the scene when he came home from school - the courtyard door was slightly hidden, the smoke was faint, his mother was nagging when she was cooking, his sister was laughing when she opened the door, and his father was shouting: "Baozhen, bring me my tea......" Everything is like yesterday, and the sound is like that.

Now, the courtyard door had apparently been left unattended for a long time, the patent leather on the door was badly mottled, and there was a large lock hanging from the door, and some red rust hung from the lock. Bao Liang knew that the public security bureau had sold the yard to a private person, but he heard from Li Chen and Liu Cunliang that after their family moved out, there had been no one living here.

At dusk, Bao Liang found Li Chen's home at the end of the alley, and Li Chen took him to Liu Cunliang's house. Liu Cunliang had guests at home, and the three of them walked all the way to the nest of "Jianning Sanxiong", a waste kiln near mountains and rivers. The setting sun gilds the entire kiln mound in psychedelic colors, like a mysterious castle in a legendary movie, as if it hides many little-known stories, and the expression is solemn and deep.

Witnessed by his childhood friends Li Chen and Liu Cunliang, Bao Liang opened the bottle full of his mother's ashes, stood on the top of the brick kiln, greeted the dazzling sunset, and scattered his mother's bones into the air towards the calm Jianhe River. There was no wind on the mountain, but the ashes scattered were like smoke and mist, slowly drifting in the air. Liu Cunliang said that he had seen this scene in the movie "Dream of the Covered Bridge", so he was so moved that he almost cried.

Bao Liang didn't cry.

He was glad that he had brought his mother back, and he was sure that he was up to the task.

The ashes were scattered in the air, between the hills and the banks of the river. None of the three brothers could utter a word of emotion, and they just stared at the river at sunset and were silently distracted.

That night, they met in a small room of Li Chen's house and talked late at night, and after Liu Cunliang left, Bao Liang and Li Chen squeezed into the same bed and slept until dawn. According to the results of the discussion between the three of them the night before, Li Chen and Liu Cunliang accompanied Bao Liang to the police station where the second uncle's family was in charge of the film early in the morning to inquire about Quan Hu's household registration and his whereabouts. After they repeatedly explained their intentions to the police, the police finally replied that Quan Hu's household registration was still there, but they did not know where the person had gone. The house of the Quan family has been confiscated by the court, and Quan Hu's household registration is still falsely hung under that address, but if he does come back one day, there will be no tile on that address and no cone on him.

They went to Jianning Normal College, where my sister no longer went to school before she graduated, and found some of my sister's original teachers and classmates who had stayed in school to teach, they all remembered the name Lu Baozhen, and some people could even tell what Baoliang looked like when he was a child, but like the police at the police station, no one knew the whereabouts of his sister. After my sister left school, she cut off contact with this place.

They went to the million-dollar company of the right family again, and the million-dollar company building is still the same, and things are not people. The company's brand has long been collected as a scrap product, and the men and women who come in and out of the building door can't see a familiar face.

Their last place was the million-dollar mansion restaurant that had also changed its door. When I got closer, I saw that the signboard was changed to hang on the side of the courtyard gate, and it has been renamed Jianhe Business Hall. The three of them looked ahead, probed their brains, and walked in with their hands and feet, the decoration layout of the building was completely unfamiliar, and a front desk manager they met looked a little familiar.

Bao Liang stammered up and asked, "Uh...... I'm sorry, are you the manager here, do you know where Quan Hu, who used to be here, is going now? ”

When the manager heard the word Quan Hu, he couldn't help but be startled, looked Baoliang and the two teenagers behind him up and down for a moment, hesitated for a moment and asked suspiciously: "Where are you from?" Quan Hu is long gone. ”

Li Chen interjected behind Bao Liang: "Quan Hu is his brother-in-law, he is looking for his sister." ”

The manager showed a respectful look of the old general of the Quan family, nodded to Bao Liang and said, "Quan Hu's father has an accident, Quan Hu has been gone for several years." Where are you from? ”

Bao Liang didn't say where he came from, he continued to ask, "Do you know where he went, and is my sister still with him?" ”

The manager, like the police at the police station and the teacher at the teachers' college, just shook his head: "I don't know." ”

Bao Liang was almost completely discouraged, but he didn't know whether it was out of luck or inertia, and asked again: "Does anyone else here know about them?" ”

The manager shook his head again without hesitation: "I am the only one who used to stay in the Million Mansion now, and the others came later." ”

This is the last stop on Baoliang's planned return to Jianning, and all hopes have been disappointed. Bao Liang thanked the manager and bowed his head and walked outside. The manager shouted again behind them:

"Uh, you ......"

Bao Liang and the others stood together and turned back.

The manager said: "Do you know the three guns in the million-dollar company?" He had been here once a few days ago, and he probably knew where Quan Hu was. ”

Bao Liang's nerves tensed: "Quan three shots? ”

The manager said: "It's the godson of the original boss Quan, and he can be regarded as the godbrother of Quanhu." Boss Quan's case also involved him, and he was sentenced to three years, and he was released a while ago. I don't know if he's still in Jianning, but if he's there, you can look for him! ”

Bao Liang stayed in Jianning for a total of three days, and did not find his sister and Quan Hu, nor did he find Quan Sangun, who had just been released from prison.

Liu Cunliang and Li Chen put Baoliang on the train, and when they said goodbye, they agreed to meet again in the provincial capital this summer. In the summer, they will all graduate from their respective schools, Liu Cunliang, who studied tourism services, wanted to go to a five-star hotel in the provincial capital to show his major, and Li Chen, who studied automobile repair, did not want to do this major at all, and also wanted to make another living in the provincial capital. Car repair is tiring and dirty, and no matter how good it is, it can't develop into anything. Unlike Liu Cunliang, who studied tourism services, he can be a foreman if he does a good job, and if he can be a foreman, he will have the possibility of being promoted to supervisor, and he will have the opportunity to be promoted to manager if he is promoted to manager, and he will not be far from the general manager if he is promoted to manager. When Liu Cunliang became the general manager, he Li Chen might still be in a car repair shop on the auto repair street, pouting his ass to unload tires for others.

Jianning is too small to hold the grand ideals and ambitions of young people.

The winter break passed quickly.

During the entire winter vacation, his father was absent, Bao Liang was muddy every day, did his homework sloppily, spent more time wandering around the Internet, opening a house and irrigating water, and even went to the voice website to shoot bricks with a group of guys he didn't know, and he was also fascinated by the latest game on the Internet for a few days, "Sword and Demon Record", and quickly learned N multiple tricks - Yangguan Three Stacks, Diao Chan Worship the Moon, Guanghan Moon Shadow, Nuwa Mending the Sky, Jin Yu Drumming, Luo Shen Lingbo......

The last semester of middle school seems unusually long. The first to be unable to survive was Li Chen, the "big brother" who studied auto repair in a secondary school. Li Chen was six months away from graduation, and he actually gave up the diploma that he was about to get in his hands after a few years, and dropped out of school early to seek his own development in the provincial capital. He said he figured it out that now with a college diploma, he may not be able to find his dream job, let alone a worthless secondary school diploma. Once he figured it out, he couldn't afford to stay up for a few more months for that butt wiping paper, so he simply went out to see the outside world, walked the rivers and lakes early to try his skills, and could practice a few more rounds in a few more months, and if he fell a few more heels, he could achieve positive results early.

Li Chen's first defection to the provincial capital was, of course, his "third brother" Baoliang. He stood at the gate of Bao Liang's school with a travel bag full of clothes, which made Bao Liang happy and surprised when he came out of school. Bao Liang happily took Li Chen to his house, and he wanted to let him live in his house for a while, at least until Li Chen found a job. The only thing he needed to tell Li Chen was not to be careless after seeing his father, and to tell his father about going back to Jianning's hometown to bury his mother's ashes during the winter vacation.

Bao Liang led Li Chen home, that feeling was so good. From the chaotic boy who was bare and muddy together at the beginning, to today he is still a friend who helps each other in good fortune and misfortune, Bao Liang went to Jianning and Li Chen to squeeze a bed board, and now Li Chen is here, of course, he has to sleep on Bao Liang's couch.

They walked through the bustling street market in front of Po Leung Alley, lined with shops with ornate windows, and then a quiet tree-lined alley that brought the amazed Li Chen to the almost spotless neighborhood. Li Chen's gaze quickly passed through the gray wall of a courtyard, and saw the huge roof of Baoliang's house with slanting blue tiles, and he asked in surprise: Baoliang, this is your home, what should you do if such a big roof collapses in the event of an earthquake? Bao Liang said that if there is really an earthquake, it will be your old house that will collapse first. Li Chen said phew! Bao Liang smiled and said that this is science.

It's still early, and it is estimated that my father has not yet left work. Bao Liang opened the door with the key, and from the shoes placed at the door, they were surprised to see that not only had his father returned, but also that there were guests in the house.

Passing through the short porch, there is a spacious living room, where Bao Liang sees his father chatting happily with his guests. It's been a long time since my father smiled like this, and such a happy smile has long been unsearchable in Baoliang's memory inventory.

On the sofa in the living room, sitting opposite my father were two backs, one large and one small, both female. The two backs heard the sound of the door and footsteps behind them, and turned their heads together, looking at each other with their eyes. Bao Liang could see clearly that the older one was about forty years old, very thin, and his facial features were so compact that they didn't seem to have grown, and the younger one was only about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a round and chubby face, as if he had grown a grin. Both of them looked at each other with a bit of doubt, as if they were the masters of this place, and Baoliang was an uninvited guest.

The father also saw Bao Liang and said, "Ah, you are back, this is Aunt Yang, this is Aunt Yang's daughter, called Dudu." Bao Liang nodded and greeted the two women, one big and one small. Aunt Yang also nodded back and said hello, with some smiles on her face, but Dudu always looked at him with bulging eyes, and there was no expression on her face.

The father saw Li Chen standing at the door again, and asked Baoliang: Isn't this your classmate from elementary school, when did you come here? Bao Liang replied: Ah, I just came from Jianning. The father said very kindly, "Ah, take you to the house."

Bao Liang said hello to Aunt Yang again: Auntie, sit down. took Li Chen to his house. Li Chen whispered to Baoliang: Who is that woman? Bao Liang said I don't know either. Li Chen didn't ask any more, looked around Baoliang's bedroom and said: Your home is awesome!

This was the first time that Bao Liang received Jianning's friends after moving to the provincial capital and moving into this brand new house, and he was very excited and happy. His bedroom was much larger than the one he had lived in Jianning, with a Scandinavian-style sofa in addition to a bed and a sliding closet with a large mirror. The writing desk is also Scandinavian, the kind with a computer keyboard holder. On the wall are the pages of the police uniforms of the police officers from various countries that his father collected from the Public Security Academy for Baoliang, and those policemen look majestic, and there are several female policemen, all of whom are also dressed as pink.

Li Chen admired it with envy, and went to fiddle with Baoliang's computer. My father was at the door and saw that Baoliang was going to make a bunk for Li Chen on the ground, so he called him out and asked: Does he want to live in our house? Bao Liang said: Ah, he just came from Jianning, and he hasn't found a place to live yet. Father said: This is not good, in the future, there will be more people from Jianning, can they all get it here? Let him find a hotel to stay in. It's not expensive to stay in a small hotel. Bao Liang said: This is my best friend, last time I went back to ...... Seeing that Bao Liang was suddenly stuck, his father asked: What happened last time? Bao Liang swallowed back and said, "It's okay." The father didn't ask, and said: And we have guests in our house today, and I will invite Aunt Yang and her daughter out to dinner later, and you can go too, it is not convenient to bring a new person. Let's talk a little and let him stay in a hotel. If he doesn't have any money, you can give him a cushion first, ah.

My father had hardly ever spoken to Bao Liang in such a gentle and pleading tone in a few years, which was more powerful than a stern command. Bao Liang couldn't help nodding in response, turned around to face Li Chen's inquiring gaze, and was so embarrassed that he couldn't answer for a while.

That day, Baoliang sent Li Chen to a nearby hotel, used the money given by his father to pay Li Chen's room fee for a week, and made an appointment to accompany him to find a job tomorrow, so he broke up with Li Chen with great guilt.

That night, Bao Liang and his father invited Aunt Yang and her daughter Dudu out to dinner, which was the most expensive meal for his father after Bao Liang moved to the provincial capital. Since my mother left, my father has been cooking for the family. My father's cooking was rough and unpalatable, and he occasionally took Baoliang down to the restaurant, which was usually simple. The father's abnormality that night gave Bao Liang a premonition, and from then on, Aunt Yang really became a frequent visitor to his house. Bao Liang slowly knew that Aunt Yang was from another province and had been divorced for many years, and her life was not rich, but she was very pampered with her daughter. Bao Liang also knew that Aunt Yang was a bit educated, and she had been an actor in the past, so she was not sure whether she was acting in dramas or singing operas, but Aunt Yang had shown her father some stills of acting in modern dramas when she was young. Aunt Yang in the stills is very different from her current appearance. Bao Liang can't help but often introspect in the mirror, wondering if his youthful face will become rough and sagging after many years.

Aunt Yang often came to Bao Liang's house, and the dining table of Bao Liang's house became richer, the hygiene in the house began to be clean, and everything was restored to the order when her mother was there. But Bao Liang couldn't get used to the taste of Aunt Yang's cooking, which was very different from the food cooked by his mother. He also didn't like Aunt Yang to decorate his house so fancy, which was incompatible with his and his father's tastes. When my mother was there, the house was so clean, but it was simple and generous, kind and natural.

Like Baoliang's hunch, his father's love progressed quickly, and the adults' judgments were both accurate and realistic, omitting a lot of Qingqing and me and elegance and romance. One day, when Bao Liang came home from school and twisted the house key, his father took the initiative to open the door for him inside, and from the fact that his father took the initiative to open the door for him, Bao Liang guessed that it was an unusual dusk. After his father opened the door, he smiled at him with an amiable attitude, and he said to Baoliang: Aunt Yang didn't come today, and I didn't cook, let's go out to eat later. His father told him not to go back to the room and sit in the living room, and he said that he had something to talk to about with him.

Bao Liang sat down and sat down across from his father, his schoolbag aside.

When his father spoke, to Bao Liang's surprise, it was still a cliché: "Bao Liang, how are you preparing for the public security academy now, are you sure?" ”

Bao Liang said, "I'm studying." ”

My father continued his teaching, which he had repeated many times: "I told Dean Liu of the Public Security Academy that as long as you pass the score line, they will definitely accept you." Dad still has a little reputation in the public security system, so the college must welcome you and attach importance to you. You must work hard and don't lose your father's face. When you graduate from the public academy in the future, your father can also find a leader and assign you to the criminal investigation department to realize your ideals, and these fathers can help you. ”

Bao Liang said, "Oh. ”

The father paused for a moment and began to get down to business: "Dad is old and in poor health, and he should retire soon." Dad only hopes that you will be admitted to college and work hard after graduation, so no matter how bad your health is, you can't hold you back, and you can't come back from school or work every day in the future, and you have to take care of me to cook medicine for me. ”

When my father said this, he raised his eyes to look at Bao Liang, and Bao Liang also looked at his father. Bao Liang's silence made his father feel the pressure and avoided his gaze again.

"Baoliang, Dad thought about it for a long time and decided to find a wife, people always have to have a companion when they are old. Your Aunt Yang is very good to Dad, and Dad wants to ...... with Aunt Yang Of course, there are you, and Aunt Yang's daughter Dudu, to organize a new home together, do you agree? ”

The father finished his decision with difficulty, then looked at Bao Liang and waited for him to make a statement. His father was stubborn by nature, he was always in the position of the commander, and his anxiety at this time was something that Bao Liang had never seen. Maybe it's not what it used to be, his mother died, his sister ran away, and now Baoliang is his only flesh and blood relative.

Bao Liang also looked at his father, only one glance, and he said, "Agreed." ”

Father nodded, let out a long breath, his eyes were excited, and said, "Okay, although this is Dad's personal matter, Dad should still ask for your opinion." You are old and sensible, and when Aunt Yang and Dudu come in the future, you have to be like an adult, don't be willful. Dudu is younger than you, and she's a girl, so you let her go a little more, okay? ”

Bao Liang said, "Okay." ”

Father nodded again and nodded in satisfaction.

The father said, "Okay, then let's go out to dinner." You put the bag back. Don't mess around with your stuff like you used to have. Your own room is also cleaned up often, don't always be so messy and make people laugh. ”

Bao Liang got up from the couch, took his school bag, and went into his room.

Bao Liang entered his room and put all the things scattered on the bed and table into drawers and closets according to his father's request. In the past, his mother helped him clean up his room, and his sister also helped him clean up. My sister and mother are gone, and my father doesn't care, he's lazy, and the room is always messy.

The father asked outside the door, "Baoliang, have you packed up, let's go out to dinner." ”

Bao Liang said, "Okay. But his voice was so hoarse that he realized that he had burst into tears.

Father's wedding is both grand and simple, grand because the father is a well-known public security model in the province, so the provincial public security department and the public security college have a very high level of leaders to congratulate, the wedding held outside the restaurant, parked several police cars with public security license plates, the scene looks majestic. The simple reason is that the Lu family has no relatives and friends in the provincial capital, except for his son Baoliang, his father is almost alone. Aunt Yang has only one sister on her side, who came from Guangxi and is a representative of the bride's family. Aunt Yang originally had some friends in the provincial capital, but after all, she was married for the second time, and the psychology of the adults seemed to be reluctant to publicize it. Maybe because her father is also disabled anyway and walks with a limp, Aunt Yang may also feel undignified. Therefore, although the wedding rented a hall in the restaurant that was large enough to fit four large tables, the guests of honor would only fill two tables.

Bao Liang could see that his father was very happy and satisfied with marrying Aunt Yang. Aunt Yang has been engaged in literature and art, and now she is engaged in administrative work in the city's garden bureau, and the etiquette on the scene is relatively thoughtful and skilled. The protagonist of the wedding, instead her precious daughter, shouted and laughed when she was happy, was unhappy in a word, and pouted for the two adults to keep coaxing. Father said that Dudu is no wonder to be called Dudu, and it is really fun to have a Dudu mouth. Dudu said that you are not allowed to call me Dudu in the future, I have a big name! One of the older leaders in the guests also liked to be coquettish, and asked: What's your big name? Dudu said: My big name is Yang Yuejiao! The adults laughed and said, "Well, it's like a celebrity's name, it's good, it's good."

Yang Yuejiao? Bao Liang thought, how cheesy!

The guests gave the bride and groom a lot of congratulatory gifts, from blankets to watches and mobile phones, most of which were household or practical things, including a new Ericsson mobile phone and a cool diver's watch, which his father later gave to Baoliang. The diver's watch was the first extravagant and fashionable ornament that Bao Liang had, and it was even more attractive than the Piaget watch that Kwon Hu had given to his sister in the past. This fashion watch, which was actually not valuable, made Bao Liang happy for a long time, and he took it to Li Chen the next day to show off.

Li Chen got a job, and he became a waiter in a KTV private room in the nightclub of the fireworks capital in the city center, earning money and seeing the world. Spend 300 yuan a month to rent a room in a basement hotel to live alone, spend 500 yuan for your daily food, spend 300 yuan to buy fashionable clothes and shoes, and have 3500 yuan left in the card. There is no salary to work as a waiter in this kind of nightclub, and it is all up to the guests to take care of them with tips, and it is not too difficult to earn three or four thousand tips a month if you do a good job or meet generous and cheerful guests.

I don't know if he was tempted by Li Chen's "fortune", Liu Cunliang also dropped out of the provincial capital. He was accompanied by a beautiful girl named Fei Fei. No matter how Liu Cunliang explained himself, Bao Liang quickly realized that Liu Cunliang was still two months away from disregarding the strong opposition of his parents, discarding the secondary school graduation certificate that he was about to earn in the cold window, and came to the provincial capital without hesitation, mostly for this Fei Fei.

Since Li Chen, a person who has only studied auto repair, can earn 3,4000 a month as a waiter in a nightclub, then Liu Cunliang, who specializes in foreign affairs services, is not more proficient in doing this than him.

In any case, the early rendezvous of the "Jianning Three Heroes" in the provincial capital was an exciting thing for Baoliang. Especially now, how much Bao Liang needs friends now!

Now, after Aunt Yang and Dudu moved into his house, the house has really been clean since then. But every time Bao Liang came home, when he heard Aunt Yang constantly talking and laughing with his father in the house, and heard their voices of persuasion, he lost his sense of home. He put the pictures of his mother and sister at the head of his bed, and it was difficult to resist the intrusion of loneliness and loneliness in his heart, and when he saw the righteous brothers of his youth, the friendship of life and death immediately burst out, making him feel the importance and preciousness of his friends more strongly than ever.

In this world, except for his sister, the people closest to him have come to this city, and he has a little sense of belonging to this city, and unconsciously, he identifies with everything here.

Liu Cunliang came to the provincial capital, and he and his girlfriend Fei Fei lived in the hut rented by Li Chen. In that kind of small hotel, tourists come and go, people flow in all directions, and no one cares about men and women living together. Fortunately, Li Chen and Liu Cunliang have been brothers for many years, and Li Chen still has the true character of a man who is not chaotic.

Fei Fei is good-looking, if she doesn't open her mouth and doesn't expose the local customs brought from Jianning, you may think that she is a local girl who grew up in a provincial town. Especially after the second month of her stay in the provincial capital, she can quickly imitate all kinds of modernity in the city, from clothing to conversation, it is very interesting. The girls change so fast that any new thrill will excite them. For Fei Fei, in addition to the prosperity of the material world in the big city, there is one more thing to stimulate the new life, that is, Liu Cunliang's "third brother" with clear eyebrows.
