Chapter 10 Four-piece set for the start of school
Every student will have a few decent gifts before entering the university, basically a computer, a mobile phone, a pair of high-end sneakers, and a bank card that can be consumed, but there are exceptions, such as the sea, according to the news he inquired, his parents have already ordered a "four-piece suit" for him: pillows, sheets, quilts and quilt covers.
Of course, it's still a joke, just a week after the start of school, the sea and his parents took him around the mall, and the parents of the sea, who are usually famous for their instigation, actually equipped him with a popular iphone 4S, a high-configuration laptop, a set of Jack Jones's outfit from head to toe and a bank card with a balance of 5000, which moved the sea who had never enjoyed this treatment since he was a child.
As the rich second-generation Xiao Zhe, his four-piece set surprised everyone, an outdated iPhone 4, a Lenovo standard computer, a pair of off-code promotional Anta basketball shoes and eight red Grandpa Mao. These are all entrusted by Xiao Zhe's father to Xiao Zhe's grandfather to help purchase, the old man thinks that these things that Xiao Zhe thinks can not keep up with the trend are still too expensive, not practical at all, it is better to prepare a few more quilts for his grandson. Xiao Zhe hurriedly dissuaded and said: "You can't break the bank anymore, you can buy it again if you can use it in the future, and it will be wasted if you don't use it." Grandpa Xiao was very impressed by his grandson's spirit of thrift and thrift, Xiao Zhe was not perfunctory, it would indeed be wasted, except for the eight Grandpa Mao, nothing else would be used, and he begged Xiao's mother to re-prepare a few high-grade school suits for him.
Cai Yan didn't start school in a four-piece suit, because his parents were busy with work and didn't have much time to prepare anything for him, but he consciously and cheerfully gave Cai Yan 20,000 yuan for him to pick by himself. Cai Yan suddenly hehe, took the money and said thank you and left his father's supermarket, which can be regarded as getting a big set.
Seeing that all his friends have gained, and the day after tomorrow is the day of school, Chen Xin communicated with Chen's father and Chen's mother with various explicit hints during dinner, and Chen's father asked with a smile: "Do you also want a four-piece suit?" Chen Xin suddenly felt that his hard work paid off, and finally relented. Dad Chen put down the dishes and chopsticks and said, "Okay, I'll send you, first, be a good man; Second, study hard; Third, eat on time; Fourth, don't get into trouble. Chen Xin was stunned all of a sudden, everyone else was a four-piece suit, but his father actually sent four sentences, which was really atmospheric.
Just wanted to express her dissatisfaction, at this time Chen's mother walked out of the room, took out a bank card and put it on the table and said: "Xin Xin, your dad is going on a business trip tomorrow, and I've been busy lately, so I won't accompany you to buy things. Chen Xinle shouted Long live his parents, 20,000 yuan, he has never had such a large sum of money in his life, this is the first time.
"Don't you want me to send you to school?" Chen's mother asked, in fact, many parents will send their children to school on the first day of school, one is to see the child's learning environment, and the other is to see what needs to be purchased. But Chen Xin is still relatively worry-free in this regard, he has not let his family send it since he was in junior high school, and he has been touching the road alone. Perhaps there are reasons for gains and losses, Chen's father and Chen's mother will always go to school after the start of school to sit and accompany the teachers to "drink tea".
"No, Xiao Zhe and I found a pickup truck, just put the quilt and clothes you want to bring to the car when the time comes, don't be so troublesome." Chen Xin always thought that this was trouble, pitiful parents all over the world, until he became a parent Chen Xin deeply realized the worry of his son's mother, but at that time he was very indifferent and said: "It's okay, I'll come back from the eleventh holiday after one." ”
At that time, Chen Xin didn't understand why Chen's father and mother were still so reluctant to go for a month, and later recalled these years, and from that moment on, he thought about the outside world, and the contact with his parents gradually decreased, and he just wanted to fly forward, and his attachment to home slowly became a thing of the past. The ancients often said that parents must travel in a way when they are not far away, but even in modern times when communication is so developed, these children may not be able to travel in a good way. Chen's father and Chen's mother are nearly half a hundred years old, and they may have expected their son, but Chen Xin never thought of it at that time, and he could only regret it in the future.
The next day, Chen Xin got up early, went out to prepare his own four-piece suit, in fact, for Chen Xin, these things are just pediatrics, not so thirsty, but also essential, spent 3000 yuan to buy a Samsung note2, 4000 yuan to buy a game book with medium configuration, I feel that it is OK, what I want most is a guitar of my own, since learning guitar, Chen Xin wants to raise money to buy one, but he can't look down on the usual entry, Chen Xin's principle is to buy it. I spent a full 7,500 yuan to buy a Gibson and played with it like a baby. even specially called Xiao Zhe and them out to show off.
This guitar also completely stimulated Xiao Zhe's desire, and immediately decided to take out all the private money to buy a decent divine soldier, for every person who learns musical instruments to have a musical instrument of their own is essential, Xiao Zhe took out his family and spent more than 8000 to buy an electronic organ, Cai Yan also paid 3000 yuan to buy a cool bass, only the sea was very distressed, was bewitched by a few people, spent 2000 yuan of savings to buy a drum kit and did not dare to take this big guy home, can only be stored in the seller, Wait for the day after tomorrow pickup to pull it to school.
Approaching the last day of school, Chen's father went out early because he was going on a business trip, and before leaving, he specially told a few words, Chen's mother took a day off to pack Chen Xin's luggage, from the quilt and bedding to the toothpaste, toothbrush, nail clippers, and a full 3 packs, but still felt that there was something to forget, and the family continued to search through the cabinets, and even the refrigerator was not let go, and all the milk drinks were packed into the bag.
Chen Xin had a headache when he looked at the big bags and small bags, but fortunately, there was a car to pull them, but he had a headache when he sent them to the dormitory. Because I haven't explored the geographical location, in case the dormitory building is unfortunately on the upper floor, then I really have the heart to die. "Xin Xin, I'm going to buy vegetables, your uncle and uncle come to the house for dinner in the evening, you clean up your room, don't make a mess." Chen's mother packed Chen Xin's luggage and was ready to go out to buy groceries, looking at her mother's hard work, Chen Xin was also embarrassed, and responded obediently: "Okay, wrap it on me." ”
It's rare to clean up the house, Chen Xin put all the books and test papers in the room together, and was originally going to sell them after the exam, but Chen's mother resolutely refused to let them, saying that these are all memories, they are the fruits of your labor, how can you sell him so easily. So I stopped there, looking at the mountains of books and test papers, Chen Xin was distracted, and he could really understand what the memories his mother was talking about? In a certain exam, which question could not be done, I kept researching, resulting in a blank question in the back, which class drew a comic on the book because I couldn't listen to it, and which spilled vegetable soup on the book at noon because of a competition with the sea for a box lunch.
Although some of these little things have gradually faded away because of the passage of time, when I open these books again, everything is vivid, or sad or sad or interesting, or the past has long been with the wind. This makes Chen Xin's understanding of books have a new discovery, which is not only the crystallization of knowledge but also carries the memories of the past, people often recall that someone has done something big, but some things are small but still interesting things often can't be recalled, unless he writes a diary, Chen Xin thinks that he doesn't have this patience, so he specially moved the desk to the window, and placed a book neatly, so that he can often bask in the sun and not get moldy, and leave it for later remembrance.
In the afternoon, Chen Xin's uncle and uncle's family came in a team, carrying many gifts in their hands, and each family even wrapped a red envelope for Chen Xin, but out of the traditional virtues of the Chinese people, Chen Xin still politely accepted it with them. Chen Xin's uncle constantly praised Chen Xin for giving their parents face, and also accused and criticized Chen Xin's cousin for not studying well when he was in school, and now he can only do a small sales in the company.
At dinner, because Chen's father was on a business trip, as the only man in the family today, Chen Xin was obliged to accompany his uncle and them to have a few drinks, this kind of thing was originally forbidden by Chen's mother in this family, and he was cut off from drinking on the grounds that Chen Xin was still young and didn't give him drink, but today Chen's mother not only did not stop it, but also praised Chen Xin's sensibility, it should be that Chen's mother also thinks that Chen Xin is already an adult from this moment.
Chen Xin's cousin is worthy of being a salesman, not only has a high ability to drink, but also has a lot of effort to persuade him to drink, Chen Xin, a hairy guy who is a newcomer to the wine table, is not an opponent at all, and he drank Chen Xin to a lot of meat and vegetables after a while, but he still gritted his teeth and insisted, fortunately, there was Chen's mother on the side to help, so Chen Xin did not lie directly on the table.
A dinner was quite enjoyable, with Chen Xin's sacrifice to accompany the gentleman, everyone's wine was not less, but after sending off the guests, Chen Xin ran directly to the room and fell asleep, and the next morning when Xiao Zhe came to Chen Xin's house downstairs with a pickup truck or a pickup, Chen Xin was still sleeping there under the quilt. Xiao Zhe yelled into Chen Xin's ear: "It's late." Only then did he wake up suddenly, perhaps because the habit was too deep, resulting in a conditioned reflex, even after a summer vacation, Chen Xin was still sensitive to the word "late", and there was a feeling of sweat standing on end, and he was scared out of a cold sweat. After discovering that it was Xiao Zhe's prank, the first time was not to beat Xiao Zhe down, but to cover his heart and make a posture for the rest of his life.
Before leaving, Chen's mother often talked to Chen Xin for a while, and at that moment it seemed that she had endless words to say to Chen Xin, but she still restrained herself and briefly told a few words.
Chen Xin sat in the car and looked at his mother who was getting farther and farther away, and for the first time he inexplicably gave birth to a kind of reluctance, at that time he had an urge to get out of the car, so that he could listen to all the words of Chen's mother.
Most people think that the four-piece set at the beginning of school is just a few gifts, but what they have never seen are the other four things that are more precious than material things, the farewell of the old time, the longing for a new life, the blessings of relatives and the worries of parents. No matter how time passes, the years go by, these four things will always be like precious treasures hidden in everyone's memories.
