Chapter Twenty-Eight: Turning Enemies into Friends

On the first Sunday after returning to his student career, Bai Yaolong wanted to take a lazy nap and relax.

But because I live in the house of the second uncle and the second aunt, I am embarrassed to sleep too late, but I sensibly went to buy soybean milk buns, fritters and other breakfast for the second uncle's family early in the morning, which can be regarded as a reward for their gratitude that they can stay in their home instead of living in the school's humble dormitory.

The second uncle and the second aunt were a little surprised when they got up and saw that he had already bought breakfast, the head teacher had already given them feedback on Bai Yaolong's situation in the past few days, except that his grades were not very good, he was also an obedient child.

The feedback from the teachers of each subject is the same, and they also said that although his grades are not good, it can be seen that he is still studying hard.

And now his sensible behavior of getting up early in the morning to buy breakfast has impressed the second uncle and aunt, and he is even more suspicious that the eldest brother and sister-in-law are joking, in order to let his son come to cheat and drink at his own house.

During the banquet, the second uncle told him about the evaluation of him by the teachers of various subjects, almost all of them said that he loves to study and is relatively quiet, but he doesn't like to listen to lectures in class, and likes to learn by himself.

The second uncle saw him smiling, thinking that he was a little proud, and was a little afraid that he would be proud, and continued: "Although you have no problem with your style, your academic performance needs to be strengthened, and the teacher always says that you love to study by yourself in class, what's going on?" ”

Bai Yaolong didn't lie, he honestly said that his foundation was too poor, a few liberal arts and newly learned chemistry were fine, physics and mathematics He didn't have a solid foundation, and he didn't look back to learn the knowledge of the first and second years of junior high school, and he couldn't understand the content of the current junior high school at all.

His second uncle, who also teaches mathematics, also agreed, but still warned him not to pretend not to understand, to ask the teacher in time if he has any questions, and not to work behind closed doors, Bai Yaolong of course nodded yes.

And the second aunt on the side also said: "Yaolong, in fact, it is not difficult to study, the difficulty lies in perseverance and serious concentration, do you see that those who are good at reading are really smarter than you?" Actually, no, it's just that they work harder and persistently. ”

No accumulation of steps, no thousands of miles; If you don't accumulate small streams, you can't become rivers and seas, in fact, it's not just about reading, this truth can be applied to many things in this world, and Bai Yaolong also knows the importance of accumulating thick hair, and he also nodded sincerely to the second aunt.

The two were also happy to see him so sensible, and the second aunt even immediately said that she would buy a chicken at noon to make up for him.

After eating, Bai Yaolong didn't go out for a walk, first, the sun was too big, and second, he felt full of motivation to learn for the teachings of his elders, of course, it was also to catch up with that beautiful shadow.

On Monday, Xu Wenmin came to the seat early, but she didn't expect Jin Ling to sit in the position, but because the two had not dealt with each other well, and because they had a fight for Bai Yaolong last week, she didn't pay attention to Jin Ling, sat down directly, and didn't say a word to Jin Ling.

When Jin Ling saw her sit down, he just tilted his head and glanced at it, and also buried his head in reading his book, the two were not so much at the same table as strangers sitting closest to each other.

After seeing Xu Wenmin coming, a girl in the front row turned her head and gossiped to Xu Wenmin: "Wenmin, did Bai Yaolong win or lose last week, I was called to the office at the time, and when I came back, I realized that such a big thing had happened, and I didn't go to see the excitement, it's a pity!" ”

Hearing her mention the conflict between the two girls last week, before Xu Wenmin could speak, Jin Ling had already taken the lead in pulling his face and said: "If you lose the fight, you will be beaten into a pig's head by three, don't worry about it!" ”

"Really?" The girl was a little suspicious, and Xu Wenmin laughed when she heard Jin Ling's naughty words, but then turned into a cold face and stopped looking up.

At this moment, Bai Yaolong walked in, the girl stared at Bai Yaolong for a long time, and when she saw that Bai Yaolong didn't have any, she turned her head a little puzzled and said, "Hey, I see that he is still like that, he doesn't look hurt!" “

Jin Ling looked at her stupid appearance and continued to say seriously: "He was originally a pig's head, does he need to be beaten?" You see he didn't know math in the first grade last time, isn't it a pig's head? ”

Jin Ling's words also made the girl in front of her understand that it was Jin Ling who was teasing her, a little angry but said with a smile: "You two are playing with me and ignoring you." ”

But Xu Wenmin replied this time: "I didn't fool you!" ”

In this way, time was in a hurry, and by the end of this Saturday evening self-study, Bai Yaolong had basically found some learning rules, and he was more suitable for the tense life of the third year of junior high school, and he officially embarked on the step of striving for a good young man in the new era.

That night, just as he was about to go home from class, another male voice called out to him, and he fixed his eyes, only to find that it was the Tang Jun who wanted to beat him last week.

At this shout, everyone also discovered Tang Jun, Jin Ling saw that it was the other party again, thinking that he was going to fight again, and subconsciously looked at Xu Wenmin, and Xu Wenmin also stood up and looked at Tang Jun, a little surprised.

But Tang Jun waved his hand to Xu Wenmin, who stood up, and threw a smile, signaling her not to be nervous, Bai Yaolong also looked at it, just him, and it didn't look like he was here to fight, so he put down his backpack and walked to the door.

Everyone thought they were going to fight again, and looked at this side quietly but excitedly, but Tang Jun said: "Don't worry, I'm not here to find you tonight, I just want to talk to you, how about it, would you like to have a face." ”

Bai Yaolong nodded, then waved his hand to Jin Ling, who cared about her, and followed Tang Jun out.

This time, Tang Jun did not lead him to the grove, but to a small garden not far away, because this garden was not on the way back to the dormitory and the school gate, so there were almost no people.

Bai Yaolong looked at the surrounding environment, the woods were full of weeds, if Tang Jun yelled at this time: Boss, I brought this kid here, and then a group of gangsters jumped out, he would believe it.

But fortunately, after Tang Jun arrived, he leaned against the pillar of the garden pavilion, but he didn't mean to do anything.

After seeing that he really didn't come to fight with him again, Bai Yaolong took out a cigarette from his pocket, and then walked over and handed it to him.

After he took the cigarette, he didn't immediately take out the lighter and light it, but looked at the cigarette: "This cigarette is a 7 yuan coquette, are you very rich?" ”

At this time, the cigarettes, not to mention the students, the average adult smokes only 3 yuan 5 a pack of red plums, and rural students like Tang Jun and even several people partner to buy cigarettes, after all, a pack of cigarettes is their own two meals money, where do students from rural areas have how much money to buy cigarettes.

Bai Yaolong smoked at least 50 yuan a pack of cigarettes in his previous life, and he remembered that since he learned to smoke in the first semester of the second year of junior high school, he had never smoked cigarettes less than 12 yuan, that is, during this time, for Xu Wenmin, he forcibly saved money and changed to smoking 7 yuan cigarettes.

And now, he didn't expect that smoking 7 yuan cigarettes would also be said to be rich by others, so that he, a smoker who was used to a pack of cigarettes for dozens of yuan in his previous life, couldn't accept this setting of being called a rich man because of 7 yuan cigarettes for the time being.

However, when the other party asked, he also replied calmly: "My parents have the ability, and the family has a little money, and I am actually just a rich second generation with no ability!" ”

He joked to himself, Tang Jun was stunned for a moment when he heard the word rich second generation, and then smiled and said: "Rich second generation, this word is quite interesting." ”

After speaking, he didn't continue, but smiled and took out a lighter from his pocket, and skillfully lit the cigarette given by Bai Yaolong.

Seeing him light it, Bai Yaolong did the same, lit the cigarette, spit out a puff of smoke, and then said to him: "Say, what's the matter, it won't be a war book, and there will be another fight, right?" ”

Tang Jun didn't look at him, lowered his head and took two mouthfuls before shaking his head and said: "You can't win, the three of us beat you one by one, and we were all beaten by you and had no power to fight back, where do you dare to fight you." ”

Bai Yaolong saw him teasing himself, and he understood that the other party was not the kind of black gangster who had to fight to win or lose, but he still tested him and said: "You are the head snake, I don't know how to find more people?" ”

Tang Jun looked at the person who looked strong and silly, but he was not stupid, he smiled and said: "I can find people with a little snake, and you white dragon can't call the wind and rain?" Just by your skills, you know that you are a person who has been fighting for a long time, and there are few excellent brothers, I don't believe it. ”

In the adult world, it is called "business blowing each other", touting each other and raising each other's value, which can be regarded as creating a good start for win-win cooperation.

Don't look at these bastards who can't read, but there are a lot of people with high emotional intelligence, otherwise why so many self-made people in later generations actually didn't read much, of course, most of the factors are because of the rise of national fortunes and the times to create heroes, but it cannot be denied that high emotional intelligence and transparency play an important role in the sophistication of human feelings.

Of course, Bai Yaolong would not easily reveal his hole cards, and he didn't come to Bai Jing to be a bastard, so he smiled and said nothing, and motioned to the other party to continue.

Tang Jun saw that he only smiled and didn't say anything, and he also understood that he guessed right, but he really didn't come to find fault today, so he stepped into the topic and said: "I heard Wen Min say that day, you helped her and lent her 500 yuan, is there such a thing?" ”

In fact, when Tang Jun came to find him today, he guessed that although his strength had convinced the other party, he must still need some catalysts to reach the level of "turning enemies into friends", and this catalyst was most likely the time Xu Wenmin talked to Tang Jun that night.

He didn't know what Xu Wenmin said specifically to Tang Jun, but if Tang Jun said this now, he could probably guess a seven, seven, eighty, eight, eight, or eight, but what made him wonder was why this Tang Jun cared so much about Xu Wenmin, after all, he tentatively asked him if he liked Xu Wenmin, but the other party Hao did not hesitate to deny it, and it didn't look like he was lying.

But no matter what, there is nothing to hide, the most important purpose of his life is to reverse Xu Wenmin's fate, and the second is to enjoy the scenery along the way of this train to the future like a passenger, and money is important to him, but it is just a tool to realize the above two dreams.

So he helped Xu Wenmin with this matter, and there was nothing to hide, so he nodded and replied: "Yes, that's right, but don't get me wrong, this money is not compensated to her for making up for my Meng Lang's actions, it's just out of friendship between classmates, and I want her to pay back this money." ”

Tang Jun nodded, then looked at Bai Yaolong and said: "You are really capable, I don't know how you made her willing to accept your money, their family is like this, we don't accept any money we want to give her, her temperament... Ay! ”

Bai Yaolong heard him say this, and also knew that the relationship between this Tang Jun and Xu Wenmin was extraordinary, and he was also very curious: "What is the relationship between you and Xu Wenmin, I heard many classmates in the class say that you came to block me because you like her, is this true?" ”

Bai Yaolong's expression was a little serious, but after Tang Jun heard this, he laughed a few times, and then said:

"I often care about Xu Wenmin, but that's because we are not only elementary school classmates, but we are also fellow villagers in the same village, in addition to me, there are also my two brothers you have seen, including Zhao Xiaomei and a few other people, we grew up together since childhood, and we are so familiar that we can't be more familiar, so do you think your right hand will feel when you touch your left hand?"

When Bai Yaolong heard this, he suddenly realized, why did Tang Jun want to give Xu Wenmin a head but said that he didn't like Xu Wenmin, it turned out that the two of them were small.

Speaking of which, everyone may say that this is not right, two people have not guessed since childhood, and they are likely to like each other.

In fact, this is misled by too many film and television dramas, love has a shelf life, which is why many couples begin to be like glue, and after a few years, they hate because of love, in fact, a big reason is that they lose their freshness.

Similarly, for example, the seven-year itch after marriage is often said, which is also the same reason, that is, because both parties lose their freshness, love will be transformed into bland family affection, so in order to create a romantic plot in the movie, there are often endings where childhood sweethearts enter the marriage hall, but in reality, you can go and see for yourself, how many of your elementary school classmates finally got married, it can be said that there are almost none.

So this principle also applies to Tang Jun, both of them are so familiar that they can't be more familiar, what is there to like.

"Then would you tell me about her?" Bai Yaolong continued to ask, although he was probably aware of Xu Wenmin's current predicament, and in his previous life, he had asked her what she liked to eat and play in junior high school, but he had never understood this girl from an adult's point of view.

Tang Jun nodded without hesitation: "I came to you tonight, in fact, to tell you about her, I think now, only you have the ability to help her, and now it seems that she is also willing to accept your help." ”

Bai Yaolong pinched out his cigarette and then stepped on it under his feet, he knew that the story Tang Jun was going to tell next was very important to him, so he also put on the appearance of a listener and signaled that Tang Jun could start.
