Chapter 331: The life of an adult is not as you please
"I don't mean you look alike, it's just a feeling, I can't say, my dad played with me when he was still around, and I was happy at that time."
He said that, and I understood.
I looked at him, smiled, and asked, "Your father's departure hit you very hard, right?" ”
Hearing me ask, his originally happy expression instantly became a little gloomy, and he lowered his head and was silent for a while before saying: "I miss my dad very much, even now, I often dream that he takes me to play ball, take me to climb, and teach me to swim, ride, ......"
From his expression, I could feel his sadness.
I reached out and patted him on the shoulder and said, "I understand your feelings, but people can't be resurrected after death, and your dad definitely doesn't want you to be depressed all the time, right?" ”
"Well, my dad often told me that you must be happy and happy, it doesn't matter if your grades are good or not, the important thing is that a person must have at least kindness and conscience, as long as he is happy."
Although I haven't met his father, I can feel from Bai Qin and his son's descriptions that his father is really a very good person.
I immediately laughed and said, "Yes, be a kind and happy person, your dad is right." ”
"That's why I said you're quite similar to my dad, and you play with me, and I like you a lot, uncle."
I smiled, and he suddenly asked, "But uncle, how did you know my mother?" ”
"Didn't I tell you, my company is upstairs opposite your mother's teahouse, and I often go to your mother's teahouse to drink tea, so I am familiar with it."
This kid suddenly had certain pupils and said, "You won't take a fancy to my mother, will you?" ”
I didn't even expect that a twelve-year-old child would be able to think like this, and I was a little surprised.
After a short pause, I said with a smile: "What do you want, don't talk nonsense, rabbit cub." ”
"I know there are a lot of people who want to get close to my mom, my dad is dead, and I'm the only one who will protect my mom in the future, and I won't let those people get close to my mom."
"I asked your mother why she didn't look for another one again, and she said that her heart couldn't like another man anymore, so don't worry, your mother won't find you a stepfather."
"I don't need a stepdad either."
I smiled and didn't say anything more, and after eating, I asked him to wash the dishes.
Unexpectedly, he didn't say a word, and went to wash it directly, without any complaints.
This really surprised me, after all, the contrast in his attitude to me in the morning was too great, and it can only be said that he really treats me as a friend, so whatever I ask him to do, he basically won't refuse.
After washing the dishes, he went upstairs and found a set of jerseys for me to change into.
In the morning, Bai Qin gave me a jacket that his father didn't wear, and he told me to take it off, and now he took the initiative to find the jersey that his father wore for me.
He treated me as his own, and I was naturally unambiguous, so I immediately changed and walked towards the court with him.
The community is quite large, there are several courts, and even at night, there are many people playing basketball.
We walked for a while, watched others play ball, and when the food in our stomachs had digested, we joined in.
This little guy is quite good at playing, don't look at his young age, and his height is not advantageous, but his skills are really not bad, and he is very agile, like a monkey.
On the other hand, since I basically didn't play after graduation, I was inferior in both speed and skill.
If I had been a few years younger, I would have been able to keep up with these young people, but now I can't do it, and I can pant a little bit.
But I still insisted on playing with him through the game, and I was already tired and sweaty.
Yang Kaixu, this little guy is still very energetic, he said to me: "Uncle, haven't you played for a long time?" ”
"You see that?"
"Well, but I feel like you can play, and it looks like I haven't played in a long time."
"Almost, I haven't played since I graduated from college."
"Don't you like it?"
I smiled and said, "Some things can't help themselves!" In order to make a living, I am as tired as a dog at work every day, how can I be in the mood to play ball. ”
"What about the weekend?"
"I want to take a break on the weekend," I said after a pause, "but the biggest reason is that there are no people around me who share hobbies." ”
Yang Kaixu suddenly sighed and nodded in agreement: "Yes, after my father passed away, I rarely played anymore, he was still there before, and we basically came to play every day." ”
"That's right, so when you're alone, I don't have the heart to do these things I used to love to do, and over time I lose interest."
"Then you want to play, you come to me, I'll be your buddy."
I smiled, reached out and touched the back of his head, and said, "Okay, I'll come to you if you want to play in the future." ”
After returning to his house, we went to wash up separately, looked at ourselves sweating profusely in the mirror, and were in a trance for a moment.
When I think of college, isn't it common for me to have such scenes, but how do you live like this now?
Life is really not what I want it to be, but how many people can live their lives the way they want?
At best, we are just following the path that others have walked, and no one can really live as they please, that's too hard!
But today's day is still quite interesting, and being with Yang Kaixu, a little guy, actually made me feel the feeling of youth.
I slept in his house that night, the same room I slept in last night, lying on the bed, I took out my phone only to find that Bai Qin had replied to me two hours ago.
I haven't looked at my phone during this time, but when I opened her WeChat, I saw her say, "This is not true, right?" He's actually studying? ”
I replied: "I'm sorry sister, I'm just looking at my phone now, it's true, this is definitely not a pose." ”
Two minutes later, Bai Qin replied: "It's surprising to me, in my eyes he has never read like this, how did you do it?" ”
"I'll talk about it when you come back, can I come back tomorrow?"
"Yes, probably tomorrow afternoon."
"It's okay, I get along well with Xiao Kai, don't worry."
"I'm really a little worried, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle him, but I didn't expect it to really surprise me."
"He's a good boy, and I just went to play with him."
"Playing ball?"
Bai Qin was also surprised, and sent another message saying: "When his father was still there, he often went to play with his father, but now he has hardly played ball." ”
"He told me, and he gave me his dad's jersey."
"Isn't it? I gave you that jacket that morning, and he told you to take it off? ”
"So this is what he has changed, don't worry, I think he will be able to learn well, he is a good boy at heart."
Bai Qin sent a voice message directly: "Thank you so much, Xiao Gao, I didn't expect you to really have a way." ”
"It's okay sister, let's talk about it when you come back, it's late, rest early."
"Okay, you also rest early, it's hard work today."
As soon as he put down his phone, the bedroom door was pushed open, and Yang Kaixu walked in.
