In the reception area, Xu Jingming sat there, drinking boiled water, and watching the fitness club. From the perspective of decoration and land occupation, it is not bad.
"Brother Xu." A familiar voice.
Xu Jingming looked up and saw Yang Qingshuo approaching with a smile. It is said that Xu Jingming was young and became the main force of the national team early. In fact, Yang Qingshuo was one year younger. He was the youngest brother of the first team of the national team.
The handsome young man who used to be is now gaining weight, his hair is even a little gray, and his eyes are a little tired.
"A Shuo." Xu Jingming stood up.
"Come on, let's sit inside." Yang Qingshuo led Xu Jingming into a small reception hall with a partition next to him. Yang Qingshuo also brought some snacks and fruit plates from the side and poured two glasses of water.
"Brother Xu, thanks to your help this time." Yang Qingshuo sat down and said.
Xu Jingming noticed that Yang Qingshuo's right hand was always wearing a glove, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with your hand?" It's summer, and his right hand is always wearing a glove.
Yang Qingshuo's expression froze for a moment, then he smiled indifferently, and took off the glove on his right hand. It was a prosthetic limb. Although the bionic skin resembled the real right hand, it could still be distinguished after a little observation.
"Your hand?" Xu Jingming couldn't believe it.
"Prosthesis." Yang Qingshuo put on gloves with a smile, "Last year, a decorated iron frame of a high-rise building fell off at a high altitude, and there was a little doll downstairs. You know, I am a professional martial arts player, and my nervous reaction is very weak." It was specially practiced, I immediately rushed over and grabbed the little doll and saved him. I blocked it with my right hand and was smashed by the iron frame, so I had to amputate."
"How could this be?" Xu Jingming was a little confused.
"I'm a fortune teller. It wasn't this hand that almost hit me, but my head." Yang Qingshuo shook his head and said, "If the iron frame is dropped from a height of tens of meters, if it hits the head, you will die. Yes. It’s just one hand now, and it’s worth it to change the baby’s survival! And now the prosthetic technology is very good, such as carrying a plate and pouring water, and some simple tasks, the prosthetic can do the same.”
Xu Jingming nodded slightly: "So you left the Sports Bureau?"
"This is a brave act." Yang Qingshuo said, "The Sports Bureau also gave rewards and learned from me. It's just that I lost my right hand, and I was not suitable to be a professional coach after all, so I was transferred to the office to do some administrative work. Administrative work The salary is a little lower, ten thousand yuan a month, and I have reached the highest nineteenth place in the world's martial arts ranking, so it is not difficult to find a job with a monthly salary of tens of thousands, so I came out and made a breakthrough."
Xu Jingming understood.
Most of the jobs in the sports bureau are not well paid. Only professional and powerful coaches can be hired, and the salary is quite high. Like Master Liu Hai, the head coach of the national team, his annual salary is in the tens of millions. As a professional coach in the provincial team, the monthly salary usually starts at 50,000! But administrative work is just an ordinary member of the sports bureau, and the salary cannot be compared with that of professional coaches.
"Ah Shuo, if you need my help, just tell me." Xu Jingming said.
"It's already a great help for you to lend me money this time." Yang Qingshuo said with a smile, "I want to see Brother Xu get married early. How old are you? You'll be 30 this year."
"Twenty-nine years old!" Xu Jingming said hastily.
"Our hometown is based on false years." Yang Qingshuo said.
Xu Jingming blinked his eyes: "Don't worry about me getting married, I will get married in a few months."
"Happy event, who is it?" Yang Qingshuo asked.
"Li Miaomiao." Xu Jingming said, "Don't spread the word, when the wedding is in a few months, you will definitely get it."
"Li Miaomiao, is that Li Miaomiao who sings so well? Or the same name?" Yang Qingshuo asked.
"is her."
Xu Jingming nodded, "Miao Miao and I don't know much about marriage and childbirth. You are someone who has experienced it. Let your Xiaoyu and Miao Miao talk more later."
Yang Qingshuo was a little embarrassed, lowered his head and took a sip of water: "Xiaoyu and I divorced."
"Divorced?" Xu Jingming was taken aback.
"Well, it happened in the first half of the year." Yang Qingshuo nodded.
Xu Jingming understood something in his heart.
Last year, Ah Shuo became disabled, a professional martial arts player, and still uses a spear! Disabled right hand? I can't use a long gun anymore, I can't be a professional coach at all, and my future income will be greatly reduced in the future. This may be a reason for the divorce.
"The divorce rate is high now." Xu Jingming said.
"On our side, the divorce rate is as high as 50%." Yang Qingshuo shook his head, "It's good to be alone, and it will save a lot of trouble."
Xu Jingming nodded.
He could feel that there was a lot of bitterness in Ah Shuo's heart.
"By the way, I will leave Binhai soon, and I will return to my hometown to settle down in the future." Xu Jingming chatted with his good brother, about life, and some gossip in the circle.
Half an hour passed like this. When chatting, Yang Qingshuo was also very relaxed, as if he had returned to college and the days when he was training with the national team.
At that time, he was carefree and only focused on martial arts.
"Brother Xu, I should go back." Yang Qingshuo looked at his watch and said, "I have to cook for my son when I go back."
"Hurry up and do your work." Xu Jingming also got up.
"It's rare for you to come here. I was supposed to have dinner with you, but..." Yang Qingshuo was a little embarrassed.
"Haha, I'm going to the capital too, so hurry up and take care of your son." Xu Jingming said.
Xu Jingming vaguely understands that Ah Shuo lost his father very early on, his mother is seriously ill and hospitalized now, and raising the child alone now... must be a lot of hard work.
"I'll go first." Xu Jingming got into the smart car for online dating at the gate of Jiaxin Fitness Club.
Yang Qingshuo, on the other hand, was carrying a backpack and watched Xu Jingming leave. Then he put on his helmet and rode an electric car towards home. Although driverless smart cars are very popular now, and you can buy a car without a driver's license, Yang Qingshuo has already sold his car.
Half an hour later, Yang Qingshuo, who stopped by to buy some vegetables from the vegetable market, returned home.
This is a large flat with 200 square meters, which is considered very good in Jinmen City. It cost 5 million to buy a house that year.
"Dad." A boy wearing virtual glasses lying on the sofa took off his glasses excitedly, ran over, and hugged his father.
"Tao Tao, did you enjoy the game?" Yang Qingshuo smiled.
"You can have a good time during the summer vacation." The boy said happily, "And I also played math and Chinese games in the morning. I have already reached the 55th level of math addition and subtraction, and the Chinese Pinyin game has also passed the 22nd level." gone."
"It's really good." Yang Qingshuo kissed his son.
The boy hugged his father affectionately and enjoyed being with his father very much.
"I'll make you dinner." Yang Qingshuo said.
"Okay." The boy sat back obediently, put on the virtual glasses again, and there was a robot next to the sofa, and the robot was the boy's only companion at home.
"I can only afford the cheapest first-class intelligent robot, and I don't have time to accompany my son, so I can only let the robot accompany me." Yang Qingshuo, who was in the kitchen, glanced at his son in the game, and felt quite guilty.
A first-level intelligent robot can only clean up, help look after his son, and chat with him briefly. Nothing else, such as cooking, is too complicated for a first-level intelligent robot to complete.
"What I can do is to maintain my son's life as much as possible." Yang Qingshuo looked at the family.
If you divorce your wife, the family property will be divided equally!
Yang Qingshuo seems to still be living in this house, but he needs to give his wife 3.9 million cash! All the cash in the family, including the real estate, has been mortgaged for two million cash...all given to the wife.
To make matters worse, his mother was seriously ill. The mother was unable to help take care of the child, and the cost of serious illness treatment was very high. He had already mortgaged the property to the maximum amount and even sold the car.
He is heavily in debt now, but he has to hold on.
"Dididi."
Yang Qingshuo pressed his watch, and a light curtain appeared. It was a haggard, fat woman in her fifties or sixties, who was Yang Qingshuo's mother.
"Xiao Shuo." Yang's mother's breath was also a little weak, "I checked a lot of information on the Internet, I am a disease of genetic defects, and it is a rare disease. The special medicine is only a delay, there is no cure at all, so don't bother , I will go home and spend time with my grandson, and my life will be happier, and you will also relax."
"Mom, don't worry, I signed a long-term contract with the company, and I am rich." Yang Qingshuo said, "You can treat yourself with peace of mind, and don't worry about other things. I will see you at around 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."
"Xiao Shuo." Yang's mother really loved her son.
In just over a year, disabled, lost a good job, divorced, and heavily in debt. Now she is alone with the child and takes care of her mother. Mother Yang wants to commit suicide, but she knows her son's character very well. If she commits suicide... I am afraid that my son will suffer for the rest of his life.
"Mom, I'm going to continue cooking, Tao Tao is still waiting to eat." Yang Qingshuo said.
"Okay." Mother Yang also hung up the phone.
Yang Qingshuo put the lid on the pot, and the flames rose from the stove, he watched silently.
"Why is my life like this?" Yang Qingshuo thought.
He was also the proud son of heaven!
"If I had listened to Brother Xu, listened to the coach, and concentrated on martial arts, and hadn't fallen in love and got married early... I would definitely have gone further in the World Martial Arts Competition, and my income would have been much higher. I wouldn't be in such an embarrassing situation now."
Yang Qingshuo recalled the past.
He fell in love when he was a freshman. It was his first love. After entering the national team, he kept in touch with his ex-wife through a virtual network. At the age of 22, he just reached the legal age of marriage. baby.
Although he is also very focused on martial arts, it must be admitted that falling in love, getting married, and having children have distracted him a lot of energy and made his achievements a little lower. You must know that he is one year younger than Xu Jingming, and compared to the same age group, he is completely comparable to Xu Jingming.
"I'm not as focused as Brother Xu. I didn't suffer a fatal injury during my time in the national team. Brother Xu even broke his leg. After a few years, he can get up again and make it to the top eight of the World Martial Arts Competition! His marksmanship has even won the praise of the entire world martial arts circle." It is recognized that it is recognized as the top ten marksmanship in history, and has won the title of spear demon. I also practice spears..." Yang Qingshuo said silently, "I am content with the status quo, and I want to spend more time with my wife and son. I am not like Brother Xu at all. pay."
"Time won't come back again. It's useless to regret and worry. Let's move forward step by step." Yang Qingshuo lowered his head, touched his watch, and a light curtain popped up. Internet fee, son's milk money, monthly loan repayment...
There is no hope for his career, he is in heavy debts, he is old and young, and he can only rely on himself.
He is the backbone of this family!
Yang Qingshuo looked up and saw the thin body of his son Yang Tao wearing virtual glasses sitting on the sofa in the living room: "Tao Tao, Dad can't give you much, but even if I risk my life, I will make you happy Big, able to support themselves in this society!"
The smell of meat from the stewing pot gradually spread to the living room.
"Dad, it smells so good." His son Yang Tao sniffed his nose and shouted happily.
"I cooked the ribs you like, and it will be ready later." Yang Qingshuo said with a smile.
…
Xu Jingming sat on the high-speed train back to Binhai City, looking out the window.
"How could this happen?" Xu Jingming understood Ah Shuo's current situation, feeling heartbroken and powerless, "Disabled and ruined his career, the whole family has to rely on him..."
"What I can do is to help, but in life, Ah Shuo has to fight on his own." Xu Jingming said silently, "Ah Shuo, come on!"
In life, sometimes you can't resist, you can only bear it silently.
