Early the next morning, Kong Zhiming went to the school to pick up Xiao Ling, and then rushed to Huayuan New Village.

Huayuan New Village is an open community that belongs to the CBD area of Dongcheng District, where there is the most lively and prosperous pedestrian street in the city, and Hu Ling's sister Liang Xin lives in this community.

After Kong Zhiming found an underground parking lot and parked the car, he took out a pair of badminton rackets and a tube of balls from the tail box, and walked towards the activity center of the community with Xiao Ling.

The activity center of the community is large and the facilities are extremely complete, which is a place for leisure and sports for nearby residents.

When Xiao Ling and the others arrived, there was no one on the badminton court, but there were already many people moving in other places. Because, today is Sunday.

After the two of them played for more than ten minutes, Kong Zhiming took advantage of the kung fu of picking up the ball and snorted at Xiao Ling on the path on the side.

Xiao Ling turned his head and found that an old man in his sixties was walking over with a little boy of eight or nine years old, who seemed to be the grandfather and grandson. The child also carries a pair of badminton rackets on his shoulders and a ball tube in his hand.

Kong Zhiming's preparations were very meticulous, and they were not surprised when this old man and young appeared.

The two fought for a few more rounds, and Kong Zhiming shouted that he couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to rest for a while. At this time, more badminton enthusiasts had already arrived, and when they saw the two resting, they hurriedly took over.

"Hanhan, you are in this round row, don't run around, grandpa go over there and move." The old man said to the child.

"Well, I'll go up when they come down." The little boy nodded, and sat down on the cement bench beside him, on which were Kong Zhiming's racket bag and the couple's water glass.

Xiao Ling gasped, wiped his sweat with a towel, walked to the bench, picked up the water bottle and poured it into the air, and Kong Zhiming on the opposite side also walked over.

"Kid, you like to play badminton too." Xiao Ling smiled at the little boy and sat down beside him.

"Yes, I come to play badminton every Sunday." The little boy is not afraid of life at all, and he has long been accustomed to the atmosphere here.

"Isn't it amazing?" Xiao Ling said with a smile.

"You'll have to try it to find out!" The little boy raised his head proudly, and his little chest stood tall.

"Yo, little one, you look pretty good!" Xiao Ling laughed, and then deliberately whispered, "Shall we compare and contrast in a while?" ”

"Compare and compare, who is afraid of whom!" The little boy said loudly.

"Yes, young man, ambitious!" Kong Zhiming also arrived and gave a thumbs up to the little boy.

"Do you have anything else besides badminton?" Xiao Ling asked again.

"No, not too lazy."

"Why?"

"It's because I don't want anything else that I came to play badminton, otherwise I will be pulled out of the whole specialty class by my parents!" The little boy suddenly smiled wittily.

"Haha, little clever ghost, so powerful." Xiao Ling also gave him a thumbs up.

"That was your grandfather just now, why didn't he fight with you?" Kong Zhiming squatted down on the side, wiped his sweat again, and asked.

"It's my grandfather." The little boy glanced at the old man who was moving his muscles on the other side, and smiled contemptuously: "Grandpa is over sixty years old, old arms and legs, if it is broken, my mother will beat me to death!" ”

"Then why don't you let your parents come with you?" Kong Zhiming asked again.

"You're stupid, I'm going to play with my farts when they come!" The little boy rolled his eyes. "Besides, my dad has to sell clothes every day, and my mom often buys goods outside, and they don't have time, so it's very hard."

"Yes, it's really hard, remember to honor your parents when you grow up!" Kong Zhiming said thoughtfully.

"What about your grandmother?" Xiao Ling said deliberately.

"My grandmother was at her house, and my mother wouldn't let her come. I miss my grandmother so much! The little boy sniffed.

"Why?"

"Because my grandfather and mother didn't like my aunt, but my grandmother liked her, I didn't let her come."

"Have you ever gone to see your grandmother?"

"I want to go, but I don't have the money to take a car, and my mother won't let me go. I went there secretly twice last year, and then I found out to my mother, and finally even my pocket money was deducted! The little boy said depressedly.

"It's amazing, I'll be in the car by myself. You went while your mom wasn't home, right? ”

"What is this, I'm almost ten years old! My mother is not here these days, and I wanted to go yesterday. ”

"And does your grandmother like you?" Kong Zhiming interjected.

"I like it, I like it!" The little boy suddenly became cheerful. "As long as I go, she will buy me a lot of delicious and fun things every time." But then, he immediately changed his disappointed look: "But I haven't seen my grandmother for a long time!" ”

"You're so old, you're already a man, you should go and see your grandmother when you have time." Kong Zhiming encouraged. "That's the grandmother who loves you the most!"

"But I don't have the money to get a ride." The little boy snorted.

At this time, the two people on the field also came down.

Seeing this, Xiao Ling immediately pulled the little boy: "Don't you say that you are very good at playing, as long as you win me, I will sponsor you, how about it?" ”

"Well, that's what you said!" The little boy was immediately overjoyed, and there was a sly look in his eyes.

After more than a dozen rounds, Xiao Ling 'sure enough' lost.

At the end of the break, the little boy grinned and said, "Uncle, you are still too weak." ”

"Bow down!" Xiao Ling laughed.

"Bring it!" The little boy stretched out his hand to Xiao Ling. "Willing to gamble and lose!"

Xiao Ling smiled and said, "Of course, uncle is an adult, how can he deceive a child." With that, he took the little boy back to sit on the cement stool.

"Dude, did you bring any money?" Xiao Ling turned his head to ask Kong Zhiming.

"How much?"

"Two hundred!"

Kong Zhiming didn't speak again, and immediately took out a pile of change from his body and handed it to Xiao Ling.

After Xiao Ling took it, he took out a bus card from his body and said to the little boy, "You have to promise me a condition." ”

Looking at the handful of change in Xiao Ling's hand, the little boy's eyes widened, and he immediately said, "Say it, I will promise you anything!" ”

"The money your uncle gave you isn't for you to spend indiscriminately, you can't go to see your grandmother empty-handed, right?" Xiao Ling said with a smile.

"Don't worry, I never spend money indiscriminately. I don't need to say it, I'll buy something for my grandmother. The little boy puffed up his chest again, like a little adult.

"That's good!" Xiao Ling touched his head, sorted out the change, wrapped the bus card in the change, and handed it to the little boy.

"So much, I don't dare ask for it." The little boy was taken aback and immediately took his hand back.

"You're so old, you should learn to manage your belongings, I'm as old as you are to sell things." Xiao Ling said with a smile: "As long as you don't spend money indiscriminately, you can use a bus card to take the bus." ”

"I still don't dare to ask for it!" There was a hint of panic in the little boy's eyes.

"Little one, do you think you're a man?" Kong Zhiming said with a smile.

"Of course!" The little boy puffed up his chest again and raised his head.

"A man has to be responsible, that's what the book says, right?"

"That's right."

"Well, the task of visiting grandma will be entrusted to you in the future!" Xiao Ling smiled and took the little boy's hand and put the money in his hand.

After speaking, Kong Zhiming cleaned up, and the two got up and left.

The little boy stayed stunned in place, watching the two walk away, and there was a hint of perseverance on his little face.
