Chapter 8 I don’t want to be like them
Wang Haochuan is really so poor that he bought a card solely to take care of Teacher Li's business. If he bought two, he could give one to his sister and one to Xie Ying. Now he only had one in his hand... He said in a voice that he could only hear: "Then I have to give it to Xiaoying."
"Tianlong! Haochuan!"
It was Xie Hongxuan's voice. Wang Haochuan hurriedly hid the hairpin behind him and turned around. There was a young man next to Xie Hongxuan. Wang Haochuan felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it.
Xie Hongxuan introduced enthusiastically: "You know him. He is Xiaoying's cousin, Xie Chong. He just returned to Laicheng. When the winter vacation ends, you will be classmates."
"Classmate?!" Hua Tianlong circled around Xie Chong and shouted exaggeratedly: "I think he has to go to junior high school, right?"
Wang Haochuan looked at the boy and had the same idea. He and Hua Tianlong were not short, and were considered to be average in the class, but even so, the boy was almost one head taller than them.
"I remember Xie Chong, who came back a few years ago." Wang Haochuan said shyly: "But you were not that old at that time. You couldn't understand what we said; we couldn't understand what you said, either of us."
Hua Tianlong slapped his forehead and said, "I remembered it when I said this. When you came back that time, you didn't even speak Mandarin and were not that tall... What nutritional supplements have you eaten in the past few years? Why are you the same as pigs eating feed..."
Wang Haochuan interrupted Hua Tianlong's words with a cough. If he let him continue, I don't know what outrageous things he would say. Wang Haochuan is shy, but he stretched out his hand as if he was a little adult and said, "Hello, welcome you back."
Xie Chong took a cold look and touched his hand perfunctorily.
Hua Tianlong asked constantly, "Do you only speak Cantonese? Can you understand what we say? Guangzhou is far away from here? Why are you back? Do you live here in the future? If you go to our school to study, you must tell me! If you have something in school, you will know me, I am the boss, and a group of younger brothers under me, I can settle whatever the matter is..."
After he finished speaking a lot in one breath, Xie Chong just sneered twice. Since the beginning of the handshake, Wang Haochuan has always felt uncomfortable. Xie Chong is too arrogant! Is he so strong in living in a big city?
"Okay, okay!" Xie Hongxuan said happily: "Xie Chong just came back and was really not used to life in the north. You will be friends from now on. I will feel at ease if you take care of each other at school!"
I don't need such care.
Xie Chong was very disdainful. However, he did not say it, but stood there coolly with his hands in his pockets.
Although they are peers, their images vary greatly. The two little boys who come to the city are wearing thick cotton clothes and dirty sleeves. They live on the eastern coast, but their faces are red plateau red. They should not apply body lotion, otherwise their faces will not be dry by the wind.
Xie Chong was wearing a black down jacket, with a crisp and handsome look. He swore that he would never wear as bloated as them, and would never wear that kind of rustic sleeve. Fortunately, his mother developed the good habit of "sweet fragrance" for him since he was a child, and he smeared his face every day. Therefore, his face would not wrinkle, nor would it appear "plateau red".
In short, the young man Xie Chong made up his mind again, and he would never become like them.
Xie Ying sat on the back seat of her aunt's bicycle. When she saw her relatives and friends, she jumped happily. Hua Tianlong was extremely excited and fired a machine gun again: "Xiaoying, are you hungry? My mother fried radish balls today and stewed two big pig trotters to my house to eat! A few days ago, my cousin came to my house and brought me two new games. Don't you like Super Mary? Let's play together for a while!"
Xie Qingyun said seriously: "Hua Tianlong, when you have a holiday, you just want to play! You get a little score, and your parents can't even raise their heads when they hold a parent-teacher meeting. You are so good that you have not accepted the criticism, so you just drag Xiaoying to play games together!"
Hua Tianlong said with a bitter face: "Teacher Xie! It's already been on holiday, so you can relax! The adults have been tired for a day, so they can watch TV, drink wine, play cards, and play chess... We have worked hard for a semester, so we can't relax for a while?"
"Ha! Thank you for your hard work? Tell me, why did you work hard?!"
...
Hua Tianlong didn't remember it.
Xie Qingyun said something for a day and couldn't stand the iron throat. However, facing this "problem student", her teacher's soul burned again, "Are you tired of sleeping? Are you tired of playing with friends? Or are you tired of not doing your homework? Wang Haochuan is still tired of being tired. You are still embarrassed to say you are tired all day long!..."
After saying a few words, Hua Tianlong's eyes were empty again. Teacher Xie's words turned into vague spells, and abstract characters formed in his dull eyes, flying in chaos in front of him. Xie Qingyun was helpless and said tiredly: "Look, you are like this. If the teacher says too much, it will become a wind in his ears. You don't care what I say... Because of this, your grades have improved at all! If you use your heart a little..."
"Aunt!" Xie Ying interrupted her aunt's behavior and said, "It's now at home, not at school!" "Okay..." Xie Qingyun said helplessly, "No matter how hard I am, you will only feel annoyed."
"No, don't you be upset!... Aunt, can I go to Tianlong's house for a while?"
"Go!" Xie Qingyun said: "You must come back before dinner! Don't eat at other people's houses!"
"Okay!"
Except for Xie Chong, the other three children spoke in unison and cheered. Looking at their backs, Xie Qingyun also smiled gently. Although she often criticized the students for being naughty, casual and unscrupulous, she was particularly relieved to see their innocent appearance. Her carefree childhood was really beautiful!
"Huh? Xie Chong, don't you go with them?"
"I won't go." Xie Chong shook his head casually, like a mature handsome guy: "I haven't played game consoles for a long time, I'm bored."
But his fingers were jumping in his pocket, he didn't want others to see them, and he wanted to play.
After running to Hua Tianlong's doorstep, Xie Ying turned around and looked at her cousin, wanting to speak but stopping. She hit a nail last night and was very hurt by her cousin's indifference. She didn't take the initiative to talk to her cousin!
However, seeing her cousin's lonely appearance, she couldn't bear it: "Brother! Do you want to play together?"
This was a great opportunity to surrender, but Xie Chong raised his head proudly, turned around and left.
The three children were so angry that they were Xie Chong.
Wang Haochuan has always been as gentle as a little white rabbit, but he was also angry. He said to Xie Ying dissatisfiedly: "To be honest, I really feel... your cousin looks down on us."
Hua Tianlong deliberately shouted loudly just to make Xie Chong hear it: "Don't feel it! He just looks down on people! Humph! Tell me, why do you think people are low?"
"Okay!" Xie Ying just complained about her brother, but now she is soft-hearted: "He is our Xie family at least, so you can't say that to him."
"Okay." Hua Tianlong shut up obediently.
Xie Ying said sadly: "My grandparents and my aunt told me that my cousin is also very pitiful and he is in a bad mood. After a while, he will get used to life here, so it should be much better, right?"
Xie Chong heard everything Hua Tianlong said, but he was not very sad. His current mentality was that he looked down on others. He knew that he had done something wrong. If someone scolded him, he could scold him back, and that would be happy. But he didn't have such a chance, and the children in this alley didn't like to quarrel. He walked home in disappointment.
