Because in front of Lin Luoran, the class teacher handled the fight much more lightly, and did not define it as a "fight", but only said it was a small friction between students.
The head teacher meant to invite Ma Ming's parents, but Lin Luoran refused the head teacher's overly attentiveness without any trace. Since it is a small friction, why bother to notify the parents? So in the end, a group of people were mixed up by the head teacher-they will be responsible for the classroom hygiene for half a month!
From the little things that happened today, Lin Luoran can probably think of Luo Dong's previous experience, which made her feel sorry for Luo Dong's previous experience, and also happy for Luo Dong's growth now.
So she just waited quietly for Lin Luodong to finish cleaning, and wanted to pick him up and go home together.
Watching Lin Luodong get into the BMW with his sister who looks like a movie star, Ma Ming spat in disdain:
"Bah, nouveau riche!"
He had just finished speaking, and his enlarged version of Ma Ming, who was wearing a huge gemstone ring and his suit was tight on his body, did not know what was wrong today. To show the affection between father and son, it was rare for him to drive to pick him up in person. he.
Coincidentally, it was a BMW.
When his father called "Xiao Ming", Wei Xue burst out laughing, Ma Ming couldn't hold back his face, and before he had time to say goodbye to his little followers, he got into the back seat of the car and disappeared.
Because of cleaning, they were the last batch of people to leave the campus. It wasn't until Wei Xue's mother came to pick her up that she saw Huang Weijian coming out of the school gate slowly, holding the torn book in his hand, still bowing his head .
Wei Xue snorted, and turned her face to express her dissatisfaction.
Naturally, Huang Weijian did not express anything, and walked slowly into the crowd with a broken book in his hand.
The setting sun cast some golden light on this silent young man, and covered him a little shabby.
At the corner of the street, Lin Luoran was sitting in the car, staring thoughtfully at the direction Huang Weijian left. Seeing her in a daze, Luo Dong softly called "Sister", Lin Luoran came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "You classmate, you are quite interesting... Luo Dong, you don't have much homework today, right?"
Lin Luodong shook her head, wondering why her sister was so interested in Huang Weijian.
Besides, what does this have to do with homework
A big question mark flashed in Lin Luodong's mind, and he was finally caught by Lin Luoran because of today's fight, so he didn't dare to ask more questions.
***********
Autumn is gradually entering, and the nights are long and the days are short. The neon lights on the streets of Rong City light up quietly at some point, and the young boy with his bangs covering his eyes seems not to smell the fragrance of vegetables wafting from the roadside restaurants. A nimble kitten got into an alley in a bustling city.
The more you walk, the more you will end up with an old community.
This is a residential area adjacent to the lotus pond of the large wholesale market in Rongcheng, with frequent population movements, and it is a complex place prone to chaos. Huang Weijian was alone, and went straight up to the seventh floor, over the noisy flow of people.
It is said to be a building, but in fact there is only a tin hut, the entire surface has been mottled and peeled off, and it looks like it has been around for many years. Strictly speaking, these upstairs are illegal buildings, built by the residents of the community themselves, and used to rent out to outsiders.
Huang Weijian did not cook as usual. Instead, taking advantage of the still light, he dug out half a bottle of glue from a pile of tatters, and carefully stuck the textbook that Ma Ming had torn up on the small broken table. There are a lot of cleaned waste paper and plastic bottles piled up around the tin house, and they are piled high against the tin house.
After finally gluing the textbook on, Huang Weijian seemed relieved, and for the first time, an emotion called "happiness" appeared on his silent and childish face.
Then he started to do his homework. Whether it was stationery or schoolbag, they were so tattered that they blended in with the environment here. Even the homework books could be clearly seen to be bound together with many waste books.
The sky gradually darkened, and Huang Weijian was lying on the broken table. Because of the light, he seemed to be struggling to write, but he didn't turn on the light from the beginning to the end, but most people who saw such conditions could guess that the open Inside the small iron house, you can see clearly at a glance, a single bed made of spliced wooden boards, some clothes, a lame cabinet for living utensils, an iron pot, bowls and chopsticks, plastic basins, and... nothing, this It is all the things in the tin house.
Even if you look at it a few more times, a rusty lamp holder without a light bulb in the tin house can barely be regarded as related to "electrical appliances". Obviously, the tin house where Huang Weijian lives is impoverished.
Fortunately, as Lin Luodong said, today's homework is not too much, Huang Weijian finally finished it before the sun completely set. When he put away the books and set up the iron pot, and it seemed that he was going to cook by himself, there was still no figure like a parent appearing in the iron house.
Huang Weijian's dinner is very simple, stuffed with a small pot of rice, eat kimchi and hot sauce. For an eleven or twelve-year-old boy, I don’t know what kind of life experience has allowed him to skillfully use a simple stove built with three fire bricks, and cook just right rice by burning rotten wood and firewood in an iron pot. , The preciousness of food makes such a meal particularly sweet.
Huang Weijian was about to take two mouthfuls of rice, when the chopsticks just touched the kimchi, there was a sound of footsteps in the stairwell. A slightly chubby woman appeared at the top of the stairs. Seeing Huang Weijian eating, she seemed to struggle a bit, but still walked up.
"Aunt Liu..." Huang Weijian put down the bowl and chopsticks, and stood up quickly. The address in his mouth showed that this was not his family.
"You child, why are you polite, hurry up and eat, you won't be able to see in a while." The fat aunt waved her hand, motioning him to sit down. She seemed to know Huang Weijian's situation, and signaled the young boy to take advantage of the light to eat.
Huang Weijian did not sit down as promised, "Aunt Liu, the rent issue..."
Aunt Liu blushed, "You child, Auntie didn't come to rush you, we watched you grow up, who doesn't know your temperament... It's just that your sister Xin Xin has to pay tuition fees, I really..." Said yes There was no urging, but the whole conversation meant that my family had difficulties and needed money. How could Huang Weijian sit still
"Auntie, I understand, just wait!" Huang Weijian pushed open the door of the tin house, and found a stack of ten-cent bills from under the bed. There were hundreds of yuan bills and a few cents in change. At a glance, there were hundreds of yuan. Handed it to Aunt Liu.
"Did you save all this money by picking up scraps?" Although Aunt Liu came to press for the rent, she felt a little embarrassed holding the young man's hard-earned money at this moment. She cannot speak the prepared words in the future tense.
Huang Weijian showed a shy smile: "I picked up the waste and saved it... Aunt Liu, you take it first, and I will pay off the owed part as soon as possible."
Aunt Liu couldn't say anything more, she sighed again and again: "You child, you are too bitter, too stubborn... In fact, your grandfather..."
Huang Weijian lowered his head: "Grandpa said he will be back soon, he won't lie to me."
Thinking of this little boy who was the same age as her daughter, Aunt Liu softened her heart a bit, and she didn't mention the matter of Grandpa Huang Weijian, and even forgot to remind him to raise rent as soon as possible, so she encouraged him and went downstairs by herself up.
Seeing Aunt Liu disappear at the entrance of the corridor, Huang Weijian breathed a sigh of relief, and murmured: "It's okay to be missing for a few months... I have no money to pay the rent, why should I transfer to this elementary school for me before disappearing? If It’s not that tuition fees cannot be refunded, nor is it so difficult.”
In his tone, there was no lack of complaints about the "missing grandpa". The young boy said a few words to himself, and finally turned all these resentments into appetite, and viciously ate up a small pot of rice, leaving not even a grain of rice Down.
After cleaning the bowls and chopsticks at the faucet on the roof, and clearing away the unfinished chili sauce, Huang Weijian sat on the broken bench for a while in a daze.
There is only a small ball left in the rice bag, even if it is just a meal, it will not last for a few days.
In order not to waste tuition fees, books must be read... He also needs to live. Huang Weijian couldn't help but whispered, "Where can I get a lot of money?"
He thought about it for a while, but he didn't seem to know the law, shook his head and smiled wryly, and finally picked up the snakeskin bag for picking up garbage, and a pair of tongs, locked the impoverished tin house, and went downstairs slowly.
A voice of regret came from the window of Aunt Liu's house downstairs: "Has that child gone to pick up trash again? How pitiful alone..."
Another male voice said impatiently: "Who is not pitiful in this year? How much has the price risen, and the wages have not increased at all. Isn't he pitiful for us? If we can't pay the rent anymore... um..." The male voice seemed to be overwhelmed. Something blocked, stopped abruptly.
But Huang Weijian, who was walking in the stairwell, obviously heard the words behind. He couldn't help pinching the snakeskin pocket with his fingers, and finally decided to pick up a little more tonight, and it's okay to go to bed later, right
A wild cat jumped over from the roof, and seemed to smell the remaining fragrance of rice, but Huang Weijian was too careful when eating, and there were no leftover rice grains for it to use as snacks. He scratched the broken table, and was about to take away the canvas bag Huang Weijian put on the table, but there was a sound not far away, which made the wild cat run quickly along the way it came.
Two figures emerged from the opposite rooftop. Fortunately, it was already dark at this time, otherwise this great change of life would really scare people to death.
Lin Luodong was very embarrassed to peek at the distress of his classmates. It turns out that Huang Weijian's family conditions are so bad that he seems to be an orphan... No wonder he looks so similar to his former self.
Lin Luodong suddenly felt a little closer to the new classmate who went out with a snakeskin bag. Although she couldn't understand why her sister followed up secretly, Lin Luodong felt that this trip was not fruitless.
"Sister..." he called softly.
Lin Luoran stared at the canvas bag, and suddenly smiled: "It's really interesting... Luo Dong, you are a new classmate, it's not easy."
It's not easy, it's so hard, but it's so self-improving, much better than my previous self. Lin Luodong felt that she understood what her sister meant, but Lin Luoran patted his head and led him down the stairs to go home.
