After my father left, I suddenly didn't know what to say when I faced Ding Ying, who still had tears in the corners of her eyes. Ding Ying didn't speak either.

I felt the air freeze.

"I'm sorry." After a few minutes I broke the silence.

"What are you sorry for me?" Ding Ying said.

"I'm sorry for my father's rough attitude. Let you be wronged. I said.

"He was right. We are indeed to blame. Don't you think so? Ding Ying looked at me faintly.

"What are we to blame? I'm the culprit. So please don't feel bad about it. "I can't tell what it's like.

"But I can't untie this knot. It is likely that it will not be solved for a lifetime. Ding Ying said bitterly.

"Why do you think that? Please don't think so. I am left alone to bear all my sins. I said.

"If there is really a sin, the two of us will bear it together."

"Why? Why do you do this to me? I looked at Ding Ying. The air has long since stopped flowing.

"Not why. Blame you for that slap, hit Wu Shufang in the face, but it shook my heart. Ding Ying turned her head to look away.

"Oh." My heart shook and I looked in the other direction.

I understand what Ding Ying wants to express. I'm no longer an ignorant teenager. But, at this moment, I can only be silent.

"I'm more curious about how a person as knowledgeable as you could get into such a fight with your father? It's like a father and son, * The smell is so strong. Seeing that I didn't speak for a long time, Ding Ying changed the subject.

"Well," I sighed deeply, "which philosopher said that man is a mixture of contradictions. Our father-son relationship has always been so stiff. He just said that if it weren't for him I would be a street gangster, and I tell you, it was his discipline that almost made me a street gangster. ”

For some reason, I really wanted to talk to Ding Ying about the influence of my father on me.

"Why is this happening?" Ding Ying was very curious.

"My dad was a teacher, but he was very strict with me, and that was when I was most rebellious. But there is another grandmother who dotes on me. Relying on my grandmother's favor for me, I always worked with him, so I made a lot of trouble. And he forced me step by step, not knowing how to be accommodating, until finally I ran away from home, participated in a fight between the gangsters, was expelled from school, and was forced to transfer schools. "I told all about these experiences in one breath.

"I didn't expect you to have such a complicated experience and such a legend." Ding Ying's eyes widened.

"Don't laugh at me like that. How can you be as noble as you, you are afraid of melting in your mouth, and you are afraid of falling in your hand. ”

Ding Ying paused, then shook her head.

"Isn't that what going to be?" I say.

"If my parents didn't get divorced, it would have been like this, but my father insisted on divorcing my mother and broke everything, so I hate my father too." Ding Ying said.

"We finally have something in common." I say.

Ding Ying shook her head, "No, we're different, I just hate my father, and it's not as stiff as your relationship." ”

……

I slept late that afternoon, and when I woke up, Ding Ying was not in the house. The door to her bedroom was open, and there was no one inside.

It was already dusk, and standing by the window, I could see the afterglow of the setting sun radiating from the sky above the building opposite. But you can't see the sun. You don't know if the sun has already set.

I'm still huffing. It's the state that the more you sleep, the more you want to sleep.

I went to the bathroom, washed my face, and then went out to school. The school cafeteria should be crowded with a lot of students queuing up to eat at this time.

Just as I entered the school gate, I saw Xu Zhengping and Cao Shuigen walking side by side. Xu Zhengping was the first to see me, and he waved at me.

"Where are you going? Have you eaten? I said at the meeting.

"We're going to look for you, Kimdae." Xu Zhengping said.

Cao Shuigen looked sullen.

"What's the matter?"

Xu Zhengping pointed at Cao Shuigen, "Our brother is injured, we have to comfort him." ”

"Haven't you recovered yet?" I asked Cao Shuigen. But Cao Shuigen didn't say anything.

"As soon as I saw Jin San in the dormitory, I knew that he was injured, and it was not lightly injured. It must be that Wu Lianzi again. ”

"We had dinner together at noon, and there was a bit of an unpleasant quarrel between them." I say.

"I guessed it a long time ago."

We went outside the school together. Xu Zhengping planned to go to a small restaurant for lunch because the owner greeted us warmly, but I proposed to go to another small restaurant, and I didn't want Cao Shuigen to go to his sad place.

"It's a change of flavor, isn't it? It's okay, I hope to come back next time. The proprietress said.

I was surprised.

I thought the proprietress would be mad at me, but I didn't expect her to say that. This is really a very good businessman.

The small restaurant where we ate was next door to the small restaurant where we ate at noon. The owner is not a very good speaker, but the service attitude of the clerk is very good. The clerk was a woman in her thirties.

That night, Cao Shuigen was very active in drinking, always drinking with us glass after glass, and always criticizing us for not toasting his wine.

"I said you are still not brothers, are you afraid that I will get drunk or are you reluctant to let me drink? Come, Jin Dae, if you don't respect me, I will respect you. Cao Shuigen shouted.

"Half a cup." I say.

"What's half a cup, it's dry." Cao Shuigen raised his neck and took a sip, and the beer that couldn't be poured into his mouth flowed out of the corner of his mouth and slid down on his chest, "Oops, I said this wine is really a good thing, the more you drink it, the better it tastes, and the more you drink it, the more you want to drink it." I said Jin Er, do you respect me? "He was clearly drunk.

"You don't have to say what I say all the time, of course I have to respect you. I feel like you're looking for drunkenness. Can a woman make you so sad? Xu Zhengping said.

"A drunken solution to a thousand sorrows. Jin Er, if you're not in love, you don't understand. But the question is, why do I drink so much alcohol and still feel so uncomfortable? Cao Shuigen clapped his palms on his chest, looking pained.

"Isn't that not yet in place? Drink it in place, and make sure you don't have any more pain. Come, I honor you. Or let's drink it in groups. Xu Zhengping said.

"What do you mean by drinking in groups?" Cao Shuigen hiccuped. He covered his mouth with his hand. It seemed that the wine he had drunk was pouring up. His face was red to the base of his ears.

"Three cups in a group, six cups in a group."

"Jin Er, what are you doing here?" I say.

"It's fine. That's how you can enjoy beer. I'll start with a small group of Kim San. Jin San, is it a small group or a large group? ”

"Here's a big group!" Cao Shuigen suddenly slapped his hands on the table and made a dull sound. The sound alarmed the people who were drinking and eating. The clerk looked at us. I waved at her to signal that it was okay.

"What's the big group? Is it bad to drink one cup at a time? Do you listen to Jin Da? I said.

"Let's have a small group. Kim Dae is not strong today. I drank it first! Xu Zhengping didn't know where he got the courage, so he drank three glasses in a row. He hiccuped. "Damn, this wine is up my throat."

Cao Shuigen followed closely and drank three cups. His face was already flushed purple. I felt like the wine in his stomach could rush up at any moment.

"Well done, Jin San. In this way, I respected you just now, and now you should respect me. It's not rude, right? Xu Zhengping said.

"I said, Jin Er, what's wrong with you?" I was a little angry, "I'm going to get drunk if I drink like this." Jin San is invincible. ”

"This is called the beauty of a gentleman's adulthood. Jin San wants to get drunk, then accompany him, Jin San, do you say yes? That's what brothers are. ”

"Jin Erye, who knows me. Come, I honor you. Cao Shuigen picked up the wine bottle.

I snatched the wine bottle from Cao Shuigen's hand, "You take a break, Jin Er is looking for wine to drink, and I'll salute him." Jin Er, you won't have anything to do, right? ”

"What's the bird thing about me? I'm not as trapped by love as you are. As long as you don't get trapped by love, nothing will happen. Don't be trapped for love, and have a good life. ”

"Don't hide it," I said, "aren't you looking for drunkenness?" Between brothers, what else is there to say? ”

"What do I have to say? What do I have to hide? Alcohol is also stimulating Xu Zhengping.

"Let's drink, then." Cao Shuigen said.

"Drink." Xu Zhengping said.

Xu Zhengping and I had a small drink. After three glasses of wine, my stomach suddenly felt uncomfortable. It's really like Xu Zhengping said, the wine is full to the throat.

We drank a few times in such a small group, and in this way, directly accelerated the speed of drunkenness. Jin San and Jin Er both talked a lot, and they were all arguing to drink, so I asked the female clerk to take the rest of the beer away. I knew that if we wanted to drink like this again, we would not be able to do without this small restaurant.

I'm going to settle the bill.

"Damn, Jin Da, what do you want you to settle the bill? You think you're rich, don't you? Said okay, I'll come. I tell you, labor is the most glorious, and I spend my own money, rightly so. Xu Zhengping didn't know where he got his anger.

"Between brothers, who pays is not the same?" I say.

"I love to hear what you say, but I have to pay for the money."

We walked to the road outside the small restaurant. Cao Shuigen squatted on the side of the road to vomit. He held the trunk of a tree with one hand, and after spitting for a while, he put his fingers in his mouth with the other hand and picked at it. Then I threw up some more. A lot of water juice squirted out of Cao Shuigen's mouth, like a dragon king rising into the air and spraying water into the world.

"Jin San just can't do it." Xu Zhengping shook his body, "Why did you vomit like this?" ”

I helped Cao Shuigen up.

"Oh, I said Jin Dae, this old saying is a fucking lie. I'm drunk, I'm vomiting like this, am I drunk? You should be drunk, right? But why am I still so bitter in my heart? Tell me why I'm still so bitter in my heart? Cao Shuigen was excited.

"Trapped in love, didn't I say?" Xu Zhengping shouted.
