Eating the pork ribs that his mother sandwiched for him, Ding Mo'an felt that home was so warm. No matter how stormy you are outside, your home will always be your safe haven.

And the sound of fireworks and firecrackers sounded from time to time outside, as well as the familiar Spring Festival Gala on the TV at home, reflecting the happiness of reunion.

Lao Ding took a sip of wine, and looked lovingly at his son, who is now a lot taller than him, and he can only barely reach his shoulders, and his eyes are full of relief: My son has grown up!

The year before last, Ding Mo'an wanted to play in the youth team of Suzhou Province, but Lao Ding and Ding's mother were strongly opposed. In the eyes of their older generation, only by studying can they have a future, and playing basketball cannot be eaten.

But Lao Ding is more open-minded. Seeing that Ding Mo Anzhi was not here, he simply let go and let his young eagles spread their wings and fly high. The result did not disappoint Lao Ding, relying on Ding Mo'an's efforts, he instantly stood out from more than a dozen peers who had received training in sports schools since childhood with a halfway monk's foundation and became a leader.

While eating, Ding Mo'an put down the dishes and chopsticks. When he saw his family being splashed with paint, Ding Mo'an realized how much hardship his parents had paid behind him to realize their dreams without worries! You can imagine how many people's eyes and broken words their parents have to suffer because of themselves.

Even if he came back, his parents never complained, but just silently shielded himself from the wind and rain! The kindness of parenting, teaching, and calf protection made Ding Mo'an's hatred for the three kings rise to the peak at this warm moment, if it weren't for the fear of breaking the law, Ding Mo'an would have the urge to kill these three bastards. If you make me bear the stigma, it even affects my parents, then don't blame me for being ruthless!

Ding Mo'an immediately knelt on the ground and said guiltily: "Parents! During the time I went to the United States, our family was splashed with paint, and you two elders had to endure it for me, endure other people's eyes and broken words, and your son was not filial! ”

"Son, it's cold on the ground, get up quickly, your father knows about it, and your mother is distressed!" The son's sensibility made Lao Ding no longer able to pretend to be a strict father, and wanted to pull his son up with Ding's mother.

"Mom and Dad, let me finish one thing, and I'll get up again." Ding Mo'an asked the second elder to sit back, and then gritted his teeth and said: "I am now playing in the Memphis Tigers, and then I happened to meet Hu Weidong and Zheng Wu, who came to study in the Tigers, and Hu Weidong listened to me, said that he would help me clear my stigma, and apologize to me on behalf of the Soviet men's basketball team and the Chinese basketball world!" As for the three kings who persecuted me before and had no ball to play in China and caused my reputation, I will deal with it when Coach Hu returns to the club! ”

Syllable!

After hearing this, Lao Ding patted the table excitedly. Hu Weidong's name is very famous in Soviet Province, who doesn't know China's Jordan? And Hu Weidong has only retired from the men's basketball team for six years, and he is now the head coach of the Soviet provincial team, Lao Ding believes that he has the ability to help his son clear the stigma!

This good news made Lao Ding and Ding's mother smile even more. If the previous smile was just because his son finally came home, it covered up the sorrow of his son being used by disgusting means and his reputation on the street. Now their smiles are from the heart, their son finally doesn't have to carry the stigma, how can they not be happy.

"Son, stand up! It's not your fault, it's just that the three teammates before you are really bad! Lao Ding was happy and pulled his son up from the ground and comforted his son.

Ding Mo'an nodded heavily, not only is it bad, it is simply bad to the bone!

After the reunion dinner, Ding Mo'an and his parents sat in the living room to watch the Spring Festival Gala, and saw the torchbearer of the sketch starring Zhao Benshan and Song Dandan, Ding Mo'an was amused and laughed. The duo of Zhao Benshan and Song Dandan is really the most anticipated sketch performance by Ding Mo'an in the sketches of the Spring Festival Gala every year.

After the family laughed and laughed, Ding's mother handed Ding Mo'an a peeled apple and asked, "Mo'an, will you only stay for one night this time?" ”

"Mom and Dad, I'm really sorry I can't be by your side more." Ding Mo'an also wants to accompany his parents. But the NCAA schedule is too tightly scheduled. And with 10 of the 16 regular-season games played, the Tigers are bound to enter the March Madness Tournament with their current record, but players will have to stay in shape in just 16 games to not go far in the tournament's powerhouse melee.

Lao Ding and Ding's mother can still understand Ding Mo'an's difficulties, and their son is now studying at the University of Memphis, which is ranked 620th in the world with his basketball expertise. Although it deviated from the route they planned for Ding Mo'an, he was not a college student. When I come back in the future, my son is still a returnee college student!

When the bell came to twelve o'clock in the morning, Ding Mo'an and Lao Ding, who had prepared downstairs early, brought out a circle of firecrackers. In the past, during the Chinese New Year, it was Lao Ding who lit firecrackers. However, this year, Lao Ding stuffed the lighter to Ding Mo'an: "Xiao An, you are also older, and the matter of lighting firecrackers in our family will be handed over to you in the future, and your father and I will retire with honor!" ”

Ding Mo'an nodded heavily, took the lighter from his father's hand, and lit the fuse. The fuse that was burning by the spark detonated the crackling sound of the firecracker. When I was a child, my father was tall and my young self stood next to watch the scene of firecrackers, and now that Ding Mo'an has grown up and his father is old, two figures, one tall and one short, looming in the firelight, just like ten years ago.

In the morning, Ding Mo'an carried the special products that his parents had prepared before he came back, reluctantly said goodbye to his mother, got into his father's car and went to Hongqiao Airport, and boarded the flight back to Memphis. And when Ding Moan left for Memphis, the Tigers were struggling to play the 11th game of the season against the Rice University Owls.

It was only after the game started that Rose, head coach Calipari and a group of teammates realized the importance of Ding Moan to this team. The jump ball has always been out of contact with the Tigers, and no one expects the team's center Sean to jump seven or eight centimeters taller than him, so Rose took the lead in pressing after the center jumped to the ball at Rice University.

It's just that Douglas, who replaced Ding Mo'an in the scoring guard position after leaving, is not a little bit behind Ding Mo'an in terms of speed and defense. When Rose pressed for more than a second, Douglas got to the opposing shooting guard. The pressing was out of sync, which gave the Rice college point guard time to move the ball out.

In the first ten games of the Tigers, Ding Moan and Rose never missed in this kind of pressing, even if the various head coaches defended against the Tigers, with the speed advantage and defensive skills of Ding Moan and Rose, they turned the ball into the Tigers every time.
