It is almost winter, the green leaves on the trees are gradually withering and falling with the wind, and at this time, the evening in the south is a little cool.

The sky was getting dark, and at the gate of Chaxian High School, a teenager wearing a school uniform, carrying a black backpack and carrying a nike packaging bag walked out of Chaxian High School, walked out of the school gate, lit a cigarette, and sat on the steps of the gate in a silent daze. The young man is seventeen or eighteen, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, long bangs, a pair of bright eyes with crystal tears, and a sense of confusion on his handsome face.

"Chen Youdao, what's wrong with you?" The security guard in the guard room saw the school's influential figures sitting at the door in a daze, and walked over and whispered with concern.

When the boy saw the security guard coming to greet him, he blinked his eyes and tried to hide the tears, but the more he hid them, the more they became uncontrollable.

"Ah, sand in my eyes. The boy quickly wiped his eyes with his sleeve, and turned to the security guard with a reluctant smile. He took out a cigarette from his pocket and gave it to the security guard.

"It's okay, who doesn't make a mistake when they're young, just recognize their mistakes. The security guard sat next to the boy, lit a cigarette in his hand, patted the boy on the shoulder and comforted him.

"I was fired. ”

The security guard knew that the school was strict, and he was speechless, but he didn't know how to comfort him, and added: "It's so late, call your family to pick you up." After speaking, he took out his mobile phone and asked the boy to call his family.

"Uncle, no need, my dad is already on his way. After speaking, the young man carried the bag and waved goodbye to the security guard, then turned around and left without looking back.

In the silent night, the slightest cool breeze blew, and the thin boy walked alone on the cool street, and this teenager was Chen Youdao, who was expelled. Thinking of the process of being expelled, none of the so-called brothers came to see him off, but the security uncle who kept chasing him went out to see him off. He couldn't help but smile wryly. During the day, he fought with several "brothers" and a group of classmates, and in order to relieve the brothers who were blocked in the corner, he hit a classmate on the head with a broom stick next to him, knocking a classmate to the ground in a single game. Afterwards, because the school could not contact the parents, and Chen Youdao refused to cooperate, the school decided to expel Chen Youdao directly.

"There is a way, you must study hard, you see your father, he didn't study hard at the beginning, and now he is a Taoist priest who eats and drinks. You don't have to worry about anything else, grandma will provide for you to go to college in the future, and grandma has saved some money over the years. Chen Youdao remembered his grandmother's explanation every time he went to study, and he couldn't help but cry.

As the night deepened, Chen Youdao staggered back to the village, with mountains on both sides of the trail, no street lights, and only the occasional motorcycle passing by, adding a touch of light to the dark night.

After walking for an hour, Chen Youdao returned to the familiar Kowloon Village, it was only more than eight o'clock in the evening, the lights of many houses in the village were extinguished, only a few scattered houses and mahjong hall lights were still on, Chen Youdao quietly bypassed the house with the lights on, for fear that others would see it.

When I finally got back to the house, there was a faint light in my father's room, and I was probably watching TV with the lights off. Chen Youdao didn't dare to go in, Chen Youdao lit a cigarette and sat up on the stairs at the door, thinking about how to explain to his grandmother, as for his father, all he could think of was a beating, mainly because he was ashamed of his elderly grandmother. After smoking a few cigarettes in a row, Chen Youdao gently took out the key from the corner of the window, opened the door, and sneaked into the room. Putting his backpack and bag on the edge of the bed, he lay on the bed and cried.

In the quiet night, the sound of the cold wind whistling outside the window made Chen Youdao inexplicably irritable, as if hanging in his heart one by one, cold and biting.

Chen Youdao lay on the bed and couldn't fall asleep, got up and looked at himself in the mirror, tried to wipe the traces of crying, got up and came to his father's room, his father Chen Changgui had fallen asleep on the bed, and the anti-Japanese drama was still playing on the TV.

"Dad. Chen Youdao calmed down and shouted softly in his heart, and when he saw that Chen Changgui did not move, he shouted loudly.

Chen Changgui opened his misty eyes, "Why did you come back at this time?" ”

"I injured my classmates and was expelled from school. ”

I saw Chen Changgui get up from the bed with a snort, and Chen Youdao, who shook his hand and hit the wall, turned around and hit the wall, "You brute, you have worked hard for you to study, can't you fight for some anger?"

"You know how to beat me, have you ever taken care of me over the years? Others have been picked up and dropped off since I was a child, and I have been alone since I was studying, is it that you picked me up, you indulged me, what did you do when you picked me up?"

Chen Youdao touched his hot cheeks and roared at Chen Changgui.

Grandma heard the scolding, hurriedly ran out of the room, and helped Chen Youdao on the ground, Chen Youdao's figure of 1.8 meters was pulled down on the stool by this weak body and sat down. After listening to Chen Youdao's explanation, the grandmother lowered her pale head, and left sad tears on her wrinkled face.

Chen Youdao saw his grandmother like this, and hugged his grandmother.

"Grandma, don't be sad, I'm grown up, I can go out to work to earn money, and I'll let you live a good life. Chen Youdao's tears were also uncontrollably left, and his grandmother's love made him feel guilty.

"Your son, you go to Principal Zhang Heng tomorrow to see if you can get Youdao in and read it again. Grandma came back to her senses and explained to Chen Changgui.

"What kind of books does he read like this, let him go to society to mix, it's you who manage him, and he becomes like this. Chen Changgui yelled at his grandmother.

Seeing this, Chen Youdao got up and stood up and pointed at Chen Changgui: "You can beat me and scold me, don't talk about grandma." ”

Seeing that Chen Youdao looked like he was about to make a move, Chen Changgui was ready to throw it over, but his grandmother hurriedly stopped him and pulled Chen Youdao back to his room.

"Dao'er, don't think about it so much, just stay at home for a few months, read well, don't fall behind in your grades, let's go to the third year of high school again next year, you want to be the first college student of our Chen family." Okay, it's not early, you get a good night's sleep first. Grandma kindly touched Chen Youdao's head, closed the door and left.

Chen Youdao was lying on the bed and still couldn't sleep for a long time, and began to think about his future life, what can he do if he doesn't study?

Early the next morning, my grandmother asked Chen Youdao to get up early for breakfast, but his father was gone, and the family's motorcycle was not there, so he must have gone out. There is still a bowl of dried noodles on the table, and it is still fried into a yellow egg, which is Chen Youdao's favorite taste, from snack to large.

After breakfast, Chen Youdao saw his grandmother busy working in front of the door, so he went down to help.

"What are you doing here, it's dirty, if you're okay, go read a book, I don't need your help here. ”

Chen Youdao listened to his grandmother's instructions, felt uncomfortable for a while, and returned to the room to open the schoolbag and review...
