Chapter 2 Once
When Shi Lei came out of the Internet cafe, it was already the beginning of the night lights. On the road leading to the school, there were fewer vehicles and fewer people. This made the world shrouded in the hazy night extraordinarily peaceful and quiet.

Shi Lei is a student in a technical school. Because of his poor studies, he was sent here after graduating from junior high school. He enrolls in continuous vocational courses to learn a craft that can support his family in the future.If he had followed his previous life trajectory, he would have graduated from here a year later, and according to what his parents had arranged for him, he would go to a star enterprise in this city and become an ordinary worker.

Regarding this life, Shi Lei has no plans to change, at least not for the time being. It is impossible for him to tell his parents that he wants to go out into the world. This will not be something that can be recognized by them. After being worried and melancholy, Shi Lei didn't want his parents to worry about him again.

After graduating, going to work safely, leisure time, and the memories of the next few years can help him make his life more or less better after all, although he doesn't remember much about what will happen in the future.But real estate will rise, oil prices will rise, and gold prices will plummet. Isn’t that enough?

As for the basketball tattoo, Shi Lei didn't take it too seriously.Well, the height of 1.81 meters is not a height that can achieve something on the basketball court. Besides, he does not have extraordinary speed and jumping.Of course, torturing food in spare time is a good choice, Shi Lei plans to take some time to find a street player with cool moves to match, so he decided happily!
With a happy mood, Shi Lei quickly came to the classroom in his memory.At the closed classroom door, he took a deep breath, tried his best not to be so excited, and then gently pushed open the classroom door.

The messy classroom became quiet in an instant. The young faces in the memory, because of the sound of the door being pushed, looked at him in horror thinking that the teacher had come, and then found out that it was not, and each continued the unfinished work just now. chat.

"Longlong said you were looking for me, why didn't I see you?" Returning to his seat, God, who was sitting in the front row of Shi Lei, asked him.

"I searched around but couldn't find you, which phone are you using?" Shi Lei sat down, opened the book on the desk, pretending to be nonchalant and said to Bashen who turned to look at him.

"I didn't see you either? I used number 56."

"Oh, I went up to the third floor without finding you."

In this way, just like the evening self-study in the distant memory, the neighbors were chatting with each other, and Shi Lei quickly reintegrated into the vague but not unfamiliar campus life.

Such a carefree time is always lost very quickly. Before I knew it, the two hours of evening self-study passed like this.After class, he was still the same as he remembered, the God who was obsessed with "dreams", and helped Shi Lei, who was a day student, push the car. Under the cover of the car, he left the school gate guarded by security guards and went to the Internet cafe to fight. .

The school is not very far from Shi Lei's home, within ten minutes, the two-storey courtyard house that has not been demolished has arrived.

"Mom, where is my dad?"

Only his mother was watching TV in the room, so Shi Lei went to his mother's side, picked up a sliced ​​watermelon, took a bite and asked vaguely.

Shi Lei's appearance followed his mother's, with the shape of an awl.The eyes are neither big nor small, the bridge of the nose is high, the mouth is slightly thick, and the facial features are fairly straight, not handsome, but not ugly either, just the appearance of a normal person.It's just that compared to his mother's gentle appearance, Shi Lei's face is a bit rough, and his facial features are more angular.The appearance is not so outstanding, but it is very three-dimensional, which is the legendary photogenic, well, this is the reason why Shi Lei is keen on taking selfies.Shi Lei once had a female netizen whom he met, and she said to him after the meeting: "Your P skills are good."
"Go drink, are you hungry?"

As a mother, she didn't notice the son's abnormality that could not be explained by science. She just glanced at her son with her eyes and then refocused her attention on the TV.

Shi Lei's parents work in the same unit, which is the unit that Shi Lei will go to in the future.My father is the director and deputy of the workshop in the unit. He is not a big official, but he has a lot of entertainment.Just 40 years old, the whole person looks much older than his actual age.

My mother is a warehouse keeper, one year older than my father. She works quite leisurely and has few things to worry about, but usually when she comes back from get off work, she likes to sit by the TV when she has nothing to do, waiting for her husband and son to come home.Although she maintains a pretty good figure, most of her heart is on her family, and the other half is on her work. She has no experience in how to dress up and take care of herself. , is not very far away from grandma level.But this also has an advantage, that is, when Shi Lei is 27, his mother will not be much older than now.

27. Shi Lei, who has not yet married and established a business, lives separately from his parents, heard his mother's questioning, and rubbed his stomach habitually. Although he didn't remember what he ate in the afternoon, it must have been a meal. He didn't feel hungry.So he gnawed on the watermelon, shook his head, and uttered an "eng" in a nasal voice to indicate that he was not hungry.

"What's for lunch in the afternoon?"

Maybe it was the sound of her son eating watermelon that aroused her appetite. Shi Lei's mother also picked up a piece of watermelon and ate it. Of course, when she was talking about eating, she still didn't take her eyes off the TV.

When you go to a technical school, learning is no longer the focus, and it’s the same if you don’t learn. What you need is the diploma.But as a parent, there are always countless things to worry about for your children.

When I was young, I worried that the children would not bump into each other, get cold from heat, and be thirsty or hungry.After a little bit of care, you will start to care about your child's study. How is your study?Partial or not?These became the main topics of conversation among parents, especially mothers.

Just like Shi Lei, because his parents are both employees of the official unit and hold the country's jobs, they were forced to respond to the one-child policy, and Shi Lei was the only one, unlike most relatives and friends who have one or two superborns.So, as an only child, while enjoying all the care of his parents, Shi Lei also shouldered all their hopes.

Maybe it's because the burden of expectations is too heavy. When Shi Lei was in junior high school, he was seriously rebellious, skipping classes, fighting, and playing in the game arcade. He has added another mission to his scorpion - to educate Shi Lei.

After finally graduating from junior high school, Shi Lei was unwilling to continue his studies. In desperation, parents who couldn't let their children let their children go, had no choice but to send Shi Lei to a technical college that had a long-term cooperative relationship with his unit.

Of course, the worries are far from over. According to Shi Lei's normal life development, after his graduation, in order to let his son go to work in that unit willingly, his parents even spent a lot of money to give Shi Lei bought a car to seduce him.

Well, gas money or something, you have to know that there is a very vivid vocabulary in this world called "gnawing the old"!
Perhaps this is the presumptuousness of adolescence. The collision of the distant world, the gorgeous dream, and the reality that contains intense disappointment will make young people, in those years, do things that they would feel ashamed of when they matured .And the ones who suffer the most are often the closest and dearest parents who have no reservations about themselves.

"Let's have a board."

Shi Lei threw the finished watermelon rind into the trash basket, took out a piece of paper to wipe his mouth, leaned comfortably on the back of the sofa, and casually mentioned a kind of pasta that he often ate earlier.

Watching TV like this, the mother and son chatted for a while, when the hands of the clock jumped to nine o'clock, seeing that his father still hadn't come back, Shi Lei said to his mother: "Mom, I'm going to bed."

"Well, go, don't play games too late."

"I know mom."

"Do you have any money with you?"

Shi Lei had just stood up from the sofa when his mother asked as if suddenly remembering.

At this time, Shi Lei didn't know if he had any money on him, so he reached into his pocket and took out the money to have a look.

I have to say that money is a good thing, the best embodiment is Shi Lei's mother, at this time finally shifted her gaze from the TV to Shi Lei's open palm.Seeing the scattered one-yuan and five-yuan banknotes in Shi Lei's hand, he almost instinctively muttered the phrase "how did it cost so fast?" Shi Lei had heard this phrase countless times, while standing up from the sofa, Turned around and walked back to their bedroom.After a while, he came out with a 50 yuan note, and while handing it to Shi Lei, said out of habit, "Save some money."

It has been several years since he "gnawed on the old", Shi Lei took the banknotes handed over by his mother, and a strange and inexplicable feeling suddenly surged in his heart.It's not the embarrassment of reaching out to ask parents for money, nor the guilt of continuing to "grow the old" when you look back.It felt like a warm current soaking his heart, making his heart riddled with holes and scars in the secular world, instantly surrounded by warm family affection.

Being a child loved by someone should be the happiest thing in this world, right?He didn't feel anything before, but at this moment, Shi Lei felt something different.Youth is not only intimate friends, pure love, but also the comprehensive concern of relatives for you who are indifferent to the world.

This long-lost feeling gave Shi Lei a good night's sleep!
In the dream, he entered the original unit, because of his excellent work, he was appreciated by the leaders, and most importantly, he finally made his parents proud of him.Then he met a beautiful girl, got married soon and had a child of his own.
