The summer vacation of the third year of junior high school is the second happiest long vacation in life after the summer vacation of senior year. On the day after the exam, Zhao Guogang took the two teenagers to have a good meal and went to see a movie. Yuan Yuan still remembers watching it with his father back then. During the Titanic, Zhao Guogang had red eyes when he left the movie theater.
Now that there is more Tan Ruikang, everyone feels stupid when they watch it together. Tan Ruikang can't even recognize a movie star, and he needs Zhao Guogang to explain it to him.
Zhao Guogang likes to watch Zhang Yimou watch Zhou Runfa, Chen Daoming watch Gong Li.
Yuan Yuan likes to watch Star Lord, to watch a group of Hong Kong stars act in such neurotic hilarious movies, and also like Wong Kar Wai's tune-like to watch Faye Wong hide in Tony Leung's closet and come out every day to clean up his room; watch Jin Chengwu was disgusting when he bought expired canned yellow peaches; seeing Maggie Cheung, he said, "You look for the Dragon Inn, isn't this right on me?"
He sometimes felt that he and Zhao Guogang couldn't talk to each other, but his love for his father was not much. Tan Ruikang has a common language with his father.
Fortunately, Tan Ruikang is not his son.
After watching the movie, he went home far away and fell asleep, while Tan Ruikang arranged and tied up all the books, ready to donate them.
It rained heavily all day and night. At 6:30 the next morning, I opened my eyes far away, and I touched the alarm clock everywhere to go to school. Only then did I remember that it was summer vacation.
The following days were crazy and indulgent. Yuan Yuan started playing games on the computer every day when he woke up, and went to buy a bunch of game discs to go home and play enough books. Every day I wake up in the morning and go to sleep at night.
Yuan Yuan also called all his classmates home to sing KTV from time to time, lent the room to Zhang Zhen and his girlfriend to cuddle, and a group of people sang and watched movies in the living room, making the house like a kennel.
The admission notice for the senior high school entrance examination was mailed to his home, and Yuan Yuan called him to check his scores. Both he and Tan Ruikang scored an exceptionally high score, Tan Ruikang scored full marks in mathematics, and Yuan Yuan took first place in the district in English.
Qi Huiyu got his wish and was admitted to a high school.
At the same time, Lin Zibo called to inform Yuan Yuan and Tan Ruikang that they were going to participate in the class tour of the recommended students. The tourist destination is Jiangxi - the holy place of revolution Jinggangshan.
"My God - still need to pay 400 yuan?" Yuan Yuan said, "Is it okay not to go?"
Lin Zibo said on the other end of the phone, "Okay, you pay half of the school, and the school will not refund the money if you don't go."
Yuan Yuan was upset when he heard it, and said, "Who wants his money, I won't go."
Lin Zibo said helplessly: "I don't want to go either, I want to go to Hainan."
Yuan Yuan looked at Tan Ruikang's expectant look and gave him the phone.
It was the first time for Tan Ruikang to travel, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and said, "What do you want to prepare? Are you taking a plane?"
Yuan Yuan's face was expressionless, Qi Huiyu did not recommend, and Zhang Zhen was not in the top class. The two who played the best were not eligible to participate in the tour. The recommended student was one of the thirty-six students who had the best learning in the whole junior and third grades to high school. In the class, although most people know each other, it is not fun at all.
What can you do? Still Jinggangshan. Yuan Yuan's stomach is full of fire, and he can't say it, but seeing Tan Ruikang's expression, he really wants to go.
If it is the distant past, it will definitely say: "I don't want to go, you like to go and go by yourself."
But naturally I can't say that now. Isn't it obvious to let Tan Ruikang go alone to spoil him
After Zhao Guogang came back, he found that Yuanyuan was very annoying, and he got angry after asking a few questions.
Tan Ruikang also realized that he mentioned this matter briefly. Of course, he still wanted to go out and play, but he made it clear that he would not go if he didn't go far away, and it was the same to watch Jin Yong at home.
Zhao Guogang asked what happened and then said, "If you don't want to go, so be it."
"Go, go, go." Yuan Yuan said impatiently, "Don't say any more."
Zhao Guogang said: "Dad has been to Lushan and Jinggangshan. There is really no fun. I will give you a few places to choose from. The two brothers can play by themselves."
"Hangzhou, Sanya, Shangri-La, Beijing, Jiuzhaigou, choose one of the two."
Tan Ruikang: "..."
Yuan Yuan: "Can I call Qi Huiyu together?"
Zhao Guogang said, "Whatever you want."
Yuan Yuan shouted, hugged his dad, and immediately turned around to make a phone call.
Tan Ruikang said: "Uncle, I have saved a lot for the living expenses you gave me. Why don't I take Xiaoyuan away and use the money."
Zhao Guogang said: "You keep those for your own use, open an account and save them for your discretion. Both brothers did well in the high school entrance examination. My uncle promised Xiaoyuan that in a few days, I will give each of you a computer..."
Tan Ruikang suddenly felt like a thunderbolt, and said hurriedly: "No no! Uncle! I can't have a computer."
Zhao Guogang poured a cup of kung fu tea for him to drink, and said, "I want to buy it for you, both of you are treated equally... Ruikang, you are a good boy..."
Tan Ruikang said: "Uncle, I don't want a computer, I really don't want it. First, it's expensive, and second, it affects learning."
Zhao Guogang wanted to say something, but Tan Ruikang insisted not to use the computer. Zhao Guogang thought about it and said, "Why don't you feel wronged and replace Xiaoyuan's computer for you? Your high school has a computer class, which must be learned."
Tan Ruikang thought for a while, then smiled: "Yes, but don't buy me a new one."
Zhao Guogang snorted and said, "You are much more sensible than Xiaoyuan."
As he was speaking, Yuan Yuan came out with a dark face.
Zhao Guogang asked, "Have you decided where to go?"
Yuan Yuan fell down holding the pillow and said, "Tan Ruikang, you decide."
Tan Ruikang asked, "Aren't Qi Huiyu going?"
Yuan Yuan: "His grandmother is sick and wants to go home to see her. She has to stay at her hometown for the whole summer vacation. She will be leaving tomorrow... or let's go... Forget it."
Yuan Yuan originally wanted to say that it would be better to go to Qi Huiyu's hometown to play, but Qi Huiyu's grandmother's house is in Hubei, which is also a mountain village. If you go there, Qi Huiyu has to accompany the old man and take care of himself. If you go, it will only cause him trouble.
Where to go? I have never been to these places. Sanya is a seaside. I often see the sea. It doesn’t matter. hot.
Tan Ruikang said, "Where does Xiaoyuan want to go? You can choose, brother doesn't know how to play."
"You choose." Yuan Yuan insisted: "You can go wherever you want, I don't care."
Tan Ruikang insisted on letting Yuanyao choose, Yuanyao was a little tempted, and wanted to go to Jiuzhai to see the scenery, but it was hard to say, so he always let Tan Ruikang decide.
Finally, Tan Ruikang said, "Can I go to Beijing? The Great Wall of the Forbidden City."
Sure enough, I chose the one Yuan Yuan didn't want to go to. Yuan Yuan is this person. I don't want to make a decision.
Or to travel with Tan Ruikang, there is nothing to look forward to. He hummed lightly and said, "Yes." Then he went back to play games listlessly.
Although Zhao Guogang trusted Tan Ruikang, he didn't dare to let them travel freely. He gave Tan Ruikang 6,000 yuan the next day and asked him to take Yuanyao to sign up for a tour group. group.
Far away is not in the slightest mood, and even I feel that it is difficult to serve myself. Tan Ruikang flips through the newspaper next door, compares the prices of several major travel agencies to the advertisements of the summer edition tour groups, writes calculations, and looks at the itinerary—Beijing Double fly.
Zhao Guogang also gave them a task. After playing in Beijing, he was going to go back to his hometown and take Yuan Yuan to see his grandmother - he hadn't gone back for too many years.
So Tan Ruikang excitedly called the travel agency from house to house, and Yuan Yuan had to cheer up and pretend to cooperate with Tan Ruikang in anticipation. Finally, a travel agency was determined, and the return ticket was changed. After the end, I flew from Beijing to Changsha, and then transferred to my hometown in Changsha.
After paying the tour fee, Tan Ruikang still felt a little distressed. 2,700 yuan per person was considered a lot of money. He said as he walked on the road, and said to Yuan Yuan, "Uncle has to spend a lot of money this time."
Yuan Yuan said: "He only has hundreds of thousands in and out of business, such trivial things, hey."
Tan Ruikang was startled and said, "So much?"
Yuan Yuan was walking on the road drinking milk tea and said, "You don't know, when we first came here, we lived in a high-end community, and the parents of our elementary school classmates were the rich. Lose a car in the stock market."
Tan Ruikang said: "Xiaoyuan, do you know how to trade stocks? Is it very profitable to trade stocks?"
Yuan Yuan said: "I will, I will look at the fundamentals. My dad taught me before."
Tan Ruikang said: "Why don't we save money together, how about giving you pocket money to speculate in stocks?"
Relying on Tan Ruikang's understanding of stocks, Yuan Yuan started to brag about not writing drafts, and said, "If you don't have enough money, prepare 100,000 for me, and I can help you to speculate, but you are responsible for your own profits and losses."
Tan Ruikang said with a smile: "It was originally, what money can I have, I will give it to you in the future."
He looked at Tan Ruikang in the distance and remembered what Zhao Guogang had explained a few days ago, and asked him to take him to buy clothes. Tan Ruikang usually wears school uniforms every day, Saturday and Sunday are no exception, and he was still wearing the same clothes when Zhao Guogang came on the first day during the holidays. The t-shirt and jeans I bought for him are all one year old.
It's fashionable to change clothes and take them out, and it's not ashamed to go back to your hometown. Yuan Yuan said, "Let's go, I'll take you to buy clothes."
He took Tan Ruikang to a British-style fashion store. This is the first branch opened from Hong Kong. It is higher than Giordano Baleno. Once Zhao Guogang's friend brought one back from Hong Kong to Yuan Yuan, Yuan Yuan always wanted to I bought this brand of clothes, but unfortunately they don't have them locally.
It finally opened this summer, so it's time to shop.
Tan Ruikang was dumbfounded when he glanced at the price tag. An ordinary t-shirt costs 480 yuan, which is an exorbitant price in Tan Ruikang's life where a lunch box costs only 5 yuan.
Yuan Yuan said impatiently, "Go try on the pants, hurry up."
This year, baggy camouflage cropped trousers are in fashion. Girls also like to wear platform shoes and princess dresses. Yuanyuan bought a few pairs of boat socks for Tan Ruikang, picked out a set that he liked, and put on a pair of sunglasses, ready to go out in a big way in summer travel.
Tan Ruikang was put on his clothes and came out and said, "Do you like this kind of clothes? I'll pay for it, I have money."
Yuan Yuan said: "I'm coming, let's see how it goes, put on your shoes too."
Yuan Yuan chose two short sleeves for Tan Ruikang, a pair of camouflage cropped pants, a pair of blue low-bond boat shoes, a dozen low-bond white socks, and put on his sunglasses.
After wearing everything, Tan Ruikang raised his head and looked at himself in the mirror. He was almost 180 centimeters tall. His complexion was not as dark as he had just arrived, but his skin showed a healthy wheat color. He had long hands and long legs. Very flattering. The boat shoes are again low-boned, showing a toned ankle.
The same thought appeared in their hearts at the same time.
Tan Ruikang: (So cool, Xiaoyuan really knows how to choose clothes.)
Far away: (Damn, so cool! How could this be!)
Tan Ruikang seems to be reborn, just like a fashion male model in a magazine, Yuan Yuan only feels that his world view has been subverted.
Tan Ruikang was stunned for a long time, Yuan Yuan's expression was a little uncomfortable, and he was a little jealous. He wanted to know that he would buy him a pair of purple reflective flared pants to wear, and what would he do to dress him up so handsomely
No, the distant self cannot be compared.
So I went to look at my clothes in the distance. The blue cropped trousers seemed to be too white, and the purple ones were too feminine. There is no suitable one to choose. No matter how I wear it, I can't wear the effect of covering Tan Ruikang. In the end, I reluctantly chose a pair of army green cropped trousers, and it was a tie.
Yuan Yuan deliberately chose a light-colored t-shirt, which made his skin very white, and changed to a pair of boat shoes similar to Tan Ruikang. Tan Ruikang is tall and has a large shoe size. .
Yuan Yuan said as he put on his shoes, "Actually, it's not expensive. It's much better than the imitation Korean products that have a button here and a thread there, and it's not easy to wrinkle when you put them on."
Tan Ruikang said: "It's too expensive, but I like it very much. I came to buy it, and the expensive clothes are really different."
He decisively asked for this set, took out the passbook in his bag and said, "I'll go downstairs to get the money."
Yuan Yuan took out his card and swiped the card, looking like he was full of style, and said, "It's been ready a long time ago."
As soon as the two settled, Tan Ruikang couldn't help but stunned. The two bought two sets each, which cost more than 4,000 yuan. They both liked it and felt a little heartache. When they got home, they folded the clothes and trousers and couldn't bear to wear them. Help far away hot.
Yuan Yuan had no choice but to let him know that he would not be able to fully accept it for a while.
A few days later, at 5:30 in the morning, Zhao Guogang was still sleeping, and Tan Ruikang was neatly dressed, carrying the luggage bags from the two travel agencies in one hand. He looked like a trendy guy who usually wore glasses and leaned against the door and smiled. Said: "Brother, let's go, I bought cigarettes for you to smoke."
Yuan Yuan suddenly found out that in the past year, Tan Ruikang has changed a lot, and he is no longer the dirty rural boy who arrived outside his house and put the handle of his duffel bag behind his shoulders.
He's tall, handsome, personable, academically good, smart, and most importantly - a good match for himself. Fully qualified to call him a brother.
Having such a brother has become a very face-to-face thing.
