Chapter 1: Meet the Broom Star

Next Chapter

I always think that May is the hottest season of the year because there is no rain. In an old neighborhood in this small southern town, the small trees that were planted back then are already flourishing and can enjoy the shade. The intellectuals began to sing collectively as early as when the sun first showed its face.

This kind of cicada chirping does not make people feel noisy, and those who wake up feel that it is like a password on the playground, which makes people feel uplifted. And for those who have just fallen asleep, it is simply a lullaby.

The old Wu family, who lives on the sixth floor, has made a noise every morning in the past six months that makes the residents on the fifth floor crazy.

That was the sound of Lao Wu's daughter, Wu Meng, hitting a boxing bouncy ball at home. The girl grew up here until she was four or five years old, and then she was sent to live with her grandmother in the big city. Now I don't know why I returned to this small southern city and lived with my father.

Every morning, she goes out for a run, comes back from a lap, and tinkers with the gym equipment at home, lifts dumbbells, rolls the abdominal wheel, and the most crazy boxing reaction ball downstairs.

"Upstairs! I've put up with you for a long time! Early in the morning! If you don't sleep, others will still sleep! He shouted several times in a row.

Wu Meng heard the person on the fifth floor, holding a small loudspeaker and shouting at her house, this time she heard clearly, it was to tell her to stop hitting her boxing ball.

She took off her gloves, wiped her sweat with the towel hanging around her neck, and stood on the balcony and replied impatiently downstairs: "Don't shout! Hear me! ”

The little trumpet was quiet.

She looked at the clock on the wall, and the hands were already pointing to eight o'clock. "What time is it? Still sleeping! Although it was not loud, it was heard from downstairs.

"Lao Tzu just fell asleep! You beep with Lao Tzu again, I'll come up and kill you! ”

Wu Meng couldn't hear the latter sentence, and said, "Kill me? Do you try? ”

The downstairs also replied: "You try to make it loud again, I'll let you get your wish!" ”

Early in the morning, Wu Meng didn't want to make herself unhappy, because now she is a businessman, although it is only a small business, she can't quarrel with people in the morning, it will ruin the fortune of the day, and she entered the house angrily, "Good women don't fight with men!" ”

When the sweat was dry, I took a shower and rubbed a towel on my head. Hung the towel on the back of the chair, grabbed her short hair with her hands, and casually wiped some skin care products in the mirror. Carrying her bag on her back, she carried her mountain bike from the sixth floor to the first floor.

This is an old-fashioned residential building in the nineties, with a total of seven floors, no elevator, poor sound insulation, and it is clear who quarrels and throws bowls. The neighbors are all in the same unit, so whoever has a little bit of a family will be used as a talking point by some idlers.

The old woman at the door of the unit saw Wu Meng carrying the car out, and immediately shut up, and greeted Wu Meng with a smile: "Mengmeng, are you going to work?" ”

The muscles on Wu Meng's face contracted unnaturally, and he squeezed out a smirk: "Oh, yes." ”

Seeing that Wu Meng rode away in the car, the two began to discuss again: "Hey, this kid has been spoiled since he was a child. So rebellious, you see her as a girl, dressed like a brat. ”

"Alas, that's also a hard-working woman, and she's gone at a young age."

I heard that it was the child's birthday, and she went all the way back to her parents' house to see the child, but the child was playing crazy outside with a group of half-grown children, and she went to look for the child before being hit by a car and died. The white-haired man who harmed the old man sent the black-haired man, and the rebellious child was only eleven or twelve years old and had no mother. ”

"Hey, what kind of sin did you say, this kid would scream at anyone when he saw him when he was a child, and now, there is no politeness. They are both twenty-six or seventeen years old, and they are not married yet. ”

The two old wives saw Wu Meng suddenly return again. It's embarrassing.

Wu Meng was not polite to them: "Chewing the root of people's tongue early in the morning, aren't you afraid of mouth sores?" He gave them a blank look, put the car on the ground, and quickly ran upstairs.

When I came to the fifth floor, I bumped into someone who had just come out of the house. Coincidentally, the person was the one who scolded her with a small horn on the balcony in the morning.

"What about your reincarnation? Rampage! The boy cursed.

"Are you blind? I'm too busy to find you a bed, or I'll die and have nowhere to lie. Wu Meng did not show weakness.

"Huh? I said you owe a beating, right? I can't sleep in the morning, and I haven't settled accounts with you yet. You can't get along with me again, can you? The boy said, rubbing his sore chest.

"Please get out of the way, I'm in a hurry." Wu Meng didn't want to argue with him, she forgot to take the phone when she went out just now, and she wanted to go back to get the phone. It wasn't early, and she had to hurry up and get the phone to open the door.

Wu Meng saw that he didn't let him, and turned sideways to pass by him. Who knew that this bastard boy was going to oppose her today, Wu Meng went to the left, he stood to the left, and to the right, he stood to the right.

"Kid! Get out of the way of my sister, I don't want to turn my face with people in the neighborhood. Wu Meng glanced at the bad boy who was a head taller than herself.

The boy was breathless, his hair was longer than Wu Meng's, and he had a finger-long ponytail on the back of his head. A layer of stubble that has just grown under the ponytail is thick and thick.

A loose T-shirt showed that he didn't have much meat, but those two exposed arms made Wu Meng feel that he was probably not an opponent if he really fought.

It is estimated that the essence of the whole body has grown to the appearance, and it is not possible to make it a bag of grass in the skin. The pretty face smiled badly, and the tall nose bridge was estimated to be broken if it was punched. Wu Meng really wanted to try, if he still stopped himself like this.

"You're just a child, my mother said it, you're two years older than me, and my mother still calls your in-laws when she sees your father. You don't know? After speaking, he smiled evilly and made way for Wu Meng.

"Little brat!" Wu Meng said in her heart. The reason why she didn't say anything was because she was afraid that she would have to argue with him for a long time and delay her time.

Fortunately, he knew each other, otherwise he would have wanted to beat him up and cover his nose and go home crying and complaining to his mother!

Wu Meng ran upstairs, took things and hurriedly went downstairs, and when he came to the fifth floor, the bad boy was gone.

"Little brat!" She cursed again in her heart. Hurried downstairs.

The two wives were still sitting at the door of the unit, and when they saw Wu Meng coming down, the two turned their heads and pretended not to see her.

Wu Meng walked between the two of them, walked a few steps, looked left and right, and found that the mountain bike he had just put on the ground was gone.

looked at the two old women again, but they twisted their heads to the other side in unison. The two of them must have known who had ridden their car, and they deliberately didn't tell her. Just because Wu Meng said just now that the two of them chewed the root of her tongue.

But she was in a hurry to open the shop, and she had bought thousands of mountain bikes, and it would definitely not work to lose them like this. Besides, it's not a matter of a few thousand, this car is her life. She once rode this bicycle to the 318 Sichuan-Tibet line, which is not an ordinary bicycle.

She looked at the two old women with a smile and said, "Two beautiful aunts, you two look so good today, have you seen anyone ride away the bicycle I just put here?" ”

"Oh, we're all busy chewing on the root of our tongues, how can we see anyone riding your bike." One of the old women said in a weird way.

Wu Meng couldn't ask anything from them. But your own bicycle can't just be stolen for nothing. She stomped her foot angrily, and they must have seen it anyway. Otherwise, go open the door first to earn living expenses, and then ask when the two elders forget the unhappiness between them, maybe they can get it back.

So, I could only go out of the community, swept a shared bicycle on the side of the road, and rode to open a store.

When Wu Meng opened the door, other bubble tea shops in the crystal business district were already waiting for customers.

She was busy making some daily preparations. There is a customer who comes to buy milk tea, but her preparations are not yet done, so she can only say sorry to others, it has not yet opened for business, and let the customer go to another house to buy it first.

By the time she had made all the preparations and started business, she had already missed a few orders of business and was distressed.

Today is really an unlucky day, I was scolded early in the morning; I also forgot to take the phone, which delayed time; I met the little broken child downstairs again, and he was vexatious and delayed time. Alas!

Forget it, calm down! Adjust your breathing and have some lemon to decompress.

Wu Meng likes lemons, drinking lemon water, and containing lemon slices is her usual way to decompress or wake up and doze off. Just like a person who chews betel nut, a betel nut is chewed in the mouth, others look very uncomfortable, but the person who chews it is very refreshing!

Wu Meng is the same, she doesn't like to add sugar when she drinks lemonade. And every time she makes lemonade, she likes to cut out a slice of lemon alone, put it in her mouth, and wait until the sourness on the lemon slice is basically exhausted, then she will discard it, and occasionally chew it and swallow it, this swallow or not, depending on whether she is in a happy mood at that time.

Today, it looks like she's going to chew the lemon slices and swallow them. It's only been half a day, and she's encountered so many troubles. There's no reason not to.

When she came all the way, she rode the bicycle that scanned the code, her heart was on fire, she couldn't change gears, and she pedaled without a soul. Thinking about where her car will go? Will the thief take a few hundred yuan and sell it for a meal or ask a fox friend to have a skewer?

Unaware of the fact that a few meters away from her, the man who had ridden her bike followed her all the way to the Crystal business district. He locked his car to the sidewalk guardrail and went to a nearby men's clothing store to pick up some clothes and shoes.

After changing into the previous outfit, he came to Wu Meng's store wearing a serious dress, and he became Wu Meng's first customer after he was ready today.

"A cup of plain milk tea, with ice and less sugar."

Wu Meng was cutting lemons when she heard a sudden voice behind her and was startled. As soon as the hand slipped, the lemon ran away, and the knife cut off.

She grabbed the palm of her left hand and turned around slowly. Seeing the people standing outside the store to buy milk tea, she was sure that she had met a broom star today.
