"Mom......" Wen Shuo wiped away his tears and said in a cheerful tone: "Why do I listen to your voice, it doesn't seem to be very happy?"

"No, where is there any unhappy ......" Li Qin smiled, but couldn't help choking.

The fat man rubbed his eyes and smiled, "Miss me?"

"What do you want you to do? It's better to stay outside for the rest of your life, don't come back to bother me!" Li Qin took a sip and blamed: "What an adult, it's not worrying to go out, a few days ago, a neighbor in the community who went to the capital to visit relatives came back to tell me, only to know that you just arrived in the capital, and let people steal all the money and bags, so scared that I hurriedly went to your uncle to discuss...... If it weren't for the fact that your uncle's driver had just returned from the capital and told us that the police had solved the case and helped you get the money back, your uncle would have been ready to drive to the capital to see you. As she spoke, Li Qin sobbed again, tears rolling down.

Wen Shuo hurriedly persuaded: "Mom, don't cry, I'm not good, I didn't call my uncle because I was afraid ......that you would be worried, besides, you still don't know me?

"You didn't have any money, how did you pay for your tuition, where did you live, and what did you eat?" Li Qin sobbed.

These things are not reported on the news.

"Hey, you don't have to worry about this, it's the best university in the country, at that time, I told the reception of the freshmen of the college about the situation, and the teachers and deans immediately signed and agreed without hesitation, allowing the tuition and miscellaneous fees to be owed first, the dormitory was still allocated, the clothes were still distributed, and I was given a meal card!" Wen Shuo opened his mouth and said: "Guess what? Without waiting for the police to solve the case and get the money back, after half a month of military training, I earned more than 7,000 by myself! So, even if the case is not solved and the lost money cannot be recovered, I can also plug the hole of school and miscellaneous expenses!" Well, now your son earns money while going to school, and I won't tell you anything, we're rich now!"

"Make money?" Li Qin said in surprise: "How do you make money? Do you continue to pick up scraps and collect waste? There are a lot of waste products in the university, and no one has collected them before? Shuo, you are now a college student, and you are not familiar with life in the capital, so you are not allowed to ...... like before."

Wen Shuo broke out in a sweat, and quickly explained: "This is at Jingcheng University, your son can't lose his share! I'm doing business, selling drinks, mineral water, melon seeds, bread, ham sausages...... It's like a small shop, except that everything I sell is on a tricycle, like a small vendor in the village. Oh yes, I've been thinking about renting a bigger storefront and opening a store lately. ”

If it is someone else, even if it is a parent, eight or nine times out of ten will scold the child for not bragging and making people laugh.

But, Li Qin is different!

In the past, relatives and friends in the neighborhood said that her son was a good braggart, but Li Qin felt that her son was not bragging, and he did what he said, as if his son said that he could be admitted to university, but no one believed him, right?

So after listening to Wen Shuo's words, Li Qin not only did not doubt it, but began to think about it for his son and worried: "Shuo, although it is important to make money, but if you rent a house and open a store, do you still have time to study? Mom thinks it, it is not easy to be admitted to Beijing University, you should focus on studying, anyway, you are still young, and you are not in a hurry to earn money, and when you have a culture and a diploma in the future, there will be a chance to make money......

"Well, you're right. Wen Shuo pretended to hesitate and said, "Okay, I'll take a look and then talk about it, in fact, I don't need to be busy with opening a store, hire someone." ”

"Hire people? Then you can't pay people a salary, can you earn back the capital when the store opens, and whether the profit is enough to pay off the rent, so you want to be a shopkeeper and make money easily as the boss? Besides, hire someone to sell things in the store, you go to school, can you rest assured?" Li Qin said seriously: "Mom told you, don't mess around, if you really want to open a store, call, Mom will go to the capital to show you the store." ”

Wen Shuo raised his hand and gently rewarded himself with an ear scraper - bragging, see how you can get this lie back!

But he still agreed loudly: "Medium!"

Open a store?!

This is the capital, and you have to rent a door, a face, and a room near the capital university!

Decoration and purchase of goods and ......

The fat man pondered distressedly, how much can he sell his body for a pound?

On the phone, my mother's concerned voice came out again: "It's a holiday, buy some delicious food outside, don't be reluctant to spend money, ah!"

"Mom, you take care of yourself at home. Wen Shuo felt sour in his heart, and said: "Mom, what I just said is true, and I make a lot of money now, so ...... You've quit your job cleaning the market, you're too tired. ”

"What are you doing when you quit?" Li Qin said gently: "Mom is only thirty-nine this year, so she started to eat at home and wait for death?"

"Mom......"

"Okay, the phone bill is very expensive, don't talk about it so much, ah. Li Qin said with a smile: "When your store in the capital opens, you don't need to say it, my mother has to resign and go to the capital to help you take care of the store. ”

"But......" Wen Shuo wanted to talk a few more words, but there was a busy sound on the phone.

Outside the phone booth, there were still a few students waiting in line, the fat man came out and walked a few steps into the distance, squatted on the steps on the side of the road, looked up at the gradually darkening sky in the east, a green cloud held up the full moon that could not hold back the early appearance, because the night did not fall, the full moon was not so bright, half-hidden between the clouds.

Because of the longing for home and mother, the sourness in my heart has dissipated, and it has been replaced by worry.

It's a big talk, what should I do?

Dongyun, in the small shop outside the door of the cotton mill community, Li Qin, who put down the phone, looked reluctant and happy with expectations, wiped the tears from his face with a smile, shook his head, took out a dollar from his pocket and handed it to Sister-in-law Gong at the counter.

"What are you doing, what kind of money is the child calling?" said Sister-in-law Gong with a smile.

"Sister-in-law Gong, it's occupying your phone, don't you make an exception for me, otherwise Xiaoshuo will be embarrassed to call here next time?" Li Qin said very sincerely, although she had never used a public phone, she also knew that the public phone in Gong's store, answering a charge of five cents, this time she and her son talked for a long time, so give a piece.

Sister-in-law Gong didn't politely refuse, and found five cents to give to Li Qin: "Then you can't give more, okay! Hey, I just heard you and Xiaoshuo on the phone, it seems to be ...... Xiao Shuo is going to open a store in the capital? Ouch, you are so enviable that you are going to be jealous, what a blessing to be able to give birth to such a promising son as Xiao Shuo?"

That is, casually said, the eight characters have not been skimmed. Li Qin smiled gently: "Sister-in-law Gong, you don't know that Xiao Shuo's mouth has no door all day long, and it brags and makes people laugh." I'm so scared for him......"

At this moment, the neighbor Mrs. Chen walked in tremblingly with a crutch, and happened to hear Li Qin's humble words, and immediately said with a straight face and angrily: "What about children, why didn't Xiao Shuo brag about it? Where are you like this, saying that your child is bragging...... I don't like to hear it! How good Xiao Shuo is, how much hardship you have suffered when you are a child, the child is sensible and earns his own money, he has not studied day and night to learn culture, and how much effort he has put in to be admitted to Beijing University, these are bragging? You were bullied at the farmers' market yesterday, and those people who helped you out were not all friends of Xiao Shuo? Even that Liu Papi got on the pole and bowed to Xiao Shuo...... Is this bragging? I'll leave it here today, a child like Xiao Shuo, I have been in the Linguan area several times, and I can't find a second one with a lantern!"

Aunt Chen is seventy and six this year, the first two years of children often travel away from home, once she went downstairs early in the morning to walk when she had a heart attack, happened to be seen by Wen Shuo through the window, immediately rushed downstairs, carried Mrs. Chen to the hospital, when the sky was just bright, the clinic has not yet opened, there is not even a car shadow on the road, Wen Shuo carried Mrs. Chen all the way non-stop, ran three kilometers to the hospital, the doctor said a few minutes late, the old lady will not be able to save her.

After that, as long as Aunt Chen heard anyone say anything bad about Wen Shuo, she would not forgive, and Li Qin would not be able to.

Sister-in-law Gong interjected with a smile: "Aunt Chen is right, although Xiao Shuo loves to talk and laugh, but how many young men are not like that? Besides, what Xiao Shuo said sounds like bragging, but Xiao Shuo has done it......

Outside the door, the owner of the sheep soup restaurant who was passing by stopped, and did not enter the house, so he interjected at the door: "Let me tell you something, last winter, there was a heavy snowfall, Xiao Shuo collected a car full of scraps, the car chain was broken, he pushed it back, full of steam, like a boiling kettle, I quickly called him to the store to drink a sip of mutton soup to warm up, and persuaded him two sentences, money is not enough, what are you doing so hard at a young age." Guess what, Xiao Shuo said?"

The three of them looked at Boss Yang, their expressions full of curiosity.

Boss Yang smiled and said, "Xiao Shuo said with a bitter face that he worked so hard to make money, just to realize the ...... of the bragged cow."

The three of them were stunned.

After a few seconds of silence, they couldn't help but laugh.

There is admiration, sourness, bitterness, sympathy and love in the smile - in this world, almost everyone has bragged, but how many people can do it, engrave their casual nonsense in their hearts, and work hard because they must round the bragged cow, and not be used as a shameful and sarcastic handle in the future?

Although, maybe the big words that I have blown myself, the listeners have not taken to heart.

Leaving the store, on the way home, Li Qin thought about it, and couldn't help crying - as the saying goes, knowing the son Mo Ruomu, although she usually doesn't say it, she knows in her heart that her son is a very thoughtful, very serious, and sensitive person, so he will deliberately live a heartless and carefree life in life and in the eyes of everyone, because he is very tired, and he doesn't want to, so that his heart is too tired.
