"Yes, I just met the parents, and we are going to go to a school." Huang Li's face was ruddy, and she showed a sweet smile to Zhou Hai, and then introduced Zhou Hai to the boy: "Wang Peng, this is our neighbor, Zhou Hai." ”

"Hello, Zhou Hai." Wang Peng smiled at Zhou Hai, but there was some contempt and hostility in the depths of his eyes.

His eyes looked at Zhou Hai, who was dressed old and dirty, and then looked at Huang Li beside him, which suddenly made Wang Peng feel hostile in his heart, thinking that Zhou Hai was his rival.

Neighbors, neighbors, maybe the two of them are still childhood sweethearts.

Zhou Hai noticed Wang Peng's attitude and smiled faintly: "Hello, Wang Peng." I didn't care, and I got busy.

Rival?

For Huang Li, Zhou Hai never had any thoughts, this guy who suddenly appeared was a bit interesting.

Huang Li held Wang Peng's right arm with both hands, his head was lightly rested, looked at Zhou Hai, who was busy but not chaotic, and said, "Zhou Hai, the college entrance examination is coming soon, what school are you going to take the exam?" ”

"Aviation School." Zhou Hai took a shovel, flipped the potatoes in the oil pot, and responded.

"Aviation school? It's a lonely feeling. Huang Li frowned when she heard this.

Wang Peng interjected: "Aviation school? It is very difficult to enter the civil aviation school, Zhou Hai, even if it is ground staff, it is not something that ordinary people can do. ”

"Perhaps."

Zhou Haiwei argued, with a polite smile on his face, skillfully fried the potatoes and steamed vegetables with both hands, put them in a box, and handed them to Huang Li: "Your fried vegetables and potatoes are a total of twenty-two yuan." ”

Arguing with a stranger is pointless, and even a little ridiculous, which is a sign of immaturity.

Zhou Hai was too lazy to explain, nor was he too lazy to popularize science.

In a sense, Zhou Hai is a very lazy person.

"Okay, my family is going to let us go to Harvard University, and strive to get a U.S. green card in the future, if we can get U.S. citizenship, it would be better." Huang Li took the vegetables and potatoes, and in her affectionate and gentle eyes like autumn water, she revealed her longing and expectation for the future, and said to Zhou Hai with a smile on her face.

"Really? Congratulations. ”

Zhou Haiyu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, then he smiled, nodded politely in congratulations, and asked a question: "Why did you choose to give up your Chinese nationality?" ”

"Because it's a free country, the most powerful country in the world! Zhou Hai, let me tell you, the corruption and speech control in this country is simply outrageous, and there is no freedom at all. ”

Wang Peng, who stayed next to him, was a little indignant: "In the United States, we can say whatever we want, do whatever we want, we don't have to spend huge sums of money to buy a house, let alone worry about the future, we have the world's most powerful army to protect us, and we have ......."

His eyes widened and his words were impassioned, like a full-fledged rooster.

"Wang Peng, what are you shouting, I'm sorry, Zhou Hai, let's go first." Huang Li pulled Wang Peng, who was a little emotionally fluctuating, and immediately apologized to Zhou Hai.

Zhou Hai smiled politely but with a sense of distance: "It's okay." ”

The two are gone.

The couple Huang Li and Wang Peng, with hope and expectation for the future, a beautiful prospect for a new life, deep dissatisfaction and contempt for Huaxia, and wolf tooth potatoes and steamed vegetables worth twenty-two yuan, left.

"The United States? I hope you don't regret it. Zhou Hai looked at the backs of Huang Li and Wang Peng gradually moving away, and his face showed a hint of self-deprecation: "The country of freedom......"

It's good that I didn't say that I wanted to go to the Air Force Aviation University, otherwise, I might be labeled as a 'red brainwashed', right?

Or is it the 'evil red revolutionaries'?

Huang Li, who used to study hard to serve the country, disappeared.

However, Zhou Hai did not regret or feel heartache.

Because, he's lazy.

Too lazy to argue, too lazy to change Huang Li's outlook and concept.

I didn't think about it, so why bother for a strange neighbor?

Zhou Hai has his own ideas, and he has his own path.

The Tao is different, and they do not conspire with each other.

Ambitions are different, not friends.

A neighbor who yearns for freedom, that's all.

"Hoo ......"

With a sigh of relief, Zhou Hua shook his head, took out his mobile phone again, and entered the learning software "Ape Search Questions" to conduct a comprehensive mock exam.

Time passed by minute by minute.

While doing business, I was busy and studying hard.

By the time the sun was setting, the cold wind was howling, and the icy night had come.

At night, it was cold.

Even if he was wearing a thick old down jacket, he still felt the cold to the bone.

The temperature dropped, the flow of people on the streets was greatly reduced, and only a dozen people walked.

"It seems that there is no business anymore, so I closed the stall early, and the comprehensive knowledge points of the first and second years of high school have basically been reviewed, and the Oxford dictionary has memorized half of it, so I will go to the library and find some books to read." Zhou Hai looked at the time, at eight o'clock, looked at the empty streets illuminated by yellow street lamps, shook his head, and then prepared to close the stall.

Chilly.

Unusual cold.

With Wang Laosan and the other two families, it is estimated that the business at night is also very weak, rather than making this insignificant money, it is better to use the limited time to learn more knowledge.

"Ding ......" At this time, the familiar ringtone of the mobile phone rang.

Zhou Hai took out his mobile phone and saw that it was a call from Lin Dong, answered it, and asked, "What's the matter, Lin Dong?" ”

"Lao Zhou, do you have any money there, lend me a little for emergencies! I'll pay you back in two days. Lin Dong's anxious words came from the phone.

Money.

Borrow money.

It is important that the money is borrowed.

Zhou Hai fell silent and took a deep breath: "How much?" ”

Lin Dong is one of his few friends, and he can help.

“2000。” When Lin Dong heard Zhou Hai's words, he breathed a sigh of relief and reported the number.

Zhou Hai's words were calm, and he said bluntly: "I'll transfer it to you immediately, what's going on?" ”

Money, can be borrowed.

But Zhou Hai needs to know where the money goes.

If the money is used for drugs, it must not be borrowed.

That is, the bottomless abyss.

"Xiaohong is pregnant, I want to have an abortion." When Lin Dong heard Zhou Hai's words, he was silent for a while and responded.

Xiaohong, Lin Dong's girlfriend, real name is Lan Hong, seventeen or eighteen years old, and the two have been dating for about a year.

Lan Hong has a beautiful face, is kind and friendly, and is a student of Rongcheng Health School, and is now studying.

Abortion.

A word that is a little shameful and unspeakable, especially for a student.

Hearing this, Zhou Hai fell silent again, and only the breathing of the two of them remained on the phone.

Pregnant?

Abortion?

Zhou Hai was in a trance, he hadn't graduated from high school yet, and his friend had a child?

Although, it was going to the hospital to have an abortion.

"Are you sure it's your own?" Zhou Hai exhaled a breath of turbid air and sorted out his words.

"Indeed...... Not particularly sure, but 90% likely, we were crazy three months ago. ”
