Chapter 3184: This is growth (1/2)
Sure enough, Zhou Ping took a bite of the dish and didn't eat it. After looking at it for a long time, he put down his chopsticks and said: ”Later, it didn’t matter much later. Later, my dad didn’t have any health problems. A motorcycle crashed, and there was no monitoring at that time, and the perpetrator could not be found under the black light. What could I do? I thought I was unlucky and lay in the hospital for three full months. The relatives and friends who could borrow at home borrowed it. At any rate, I saved my life, but it’s impossible to stand up, and I don’t want to do the work on the boat.
”Our family’s conditions were okay, okay, really, at least they don’t have to worry about what to eat or drink, so it won’t work. My dad can’t move, and my mom can’t take care of such a large barge by herself. It was sold, and I returned to my hometown to open a grocery store. Since then, our family has never touched the boat again.”
”Oh……”
It was the first time that Li Yao and the three heard Zhou Ping mention his father's body, and the three of them didn't know how to comfort the boss.
”It's okay, it's all over, aren't the days better now?”
Zhou Ping smiled and said, ”The first few years were really difficult. Really, it was too **** uncomfortable to have no money. At that time, I was about thirteen or fourteen years old, thinking about not going to school at all, and going out to work to help the family. , As a result, my mother beat me like crazy. She had to go to school, saying that this was the only way out for our family, um, the only way out.
”My mind is actually not smart. You should be able to see that I am really not a ‘schooler’, and I haven’t studied hard since I was a child. I am not interested in anything other than things on board, and I am not a student at all.
”However, every time I read a book and my brain starts to hurt, I will see my mother crying and beating me. Alas, when I think of this, there is no way my brain hurts anymore.
”Later, what else was going on? Later, I was admitted to our school. Although I wasted a few years more than others, my foundation is still solid, and now I have found a job. I just called back and talked to my parents. And my younger brothers and sisters have reported the good news. They have not been so happy for many years. I am happy to see them happy, really, really happy!”
”then you--”
Zhao Kai drank a little and asked, ”Don't you want to be the captain of an aircraft carrier?”
”That's the child's cranky thinking, how can it be possible?”
Zhou Ping grinned, ”I don't know how to say it. Anyway, since I put my mind on studying, and I haven't touched a boat for many years, the... ”feeling” or ”spirituality” in me has gradually disappeared. ,Disappeared.
”Gradually, I seldom have messy dreams about spaceships, nor do I think about boring things like Star Wars, star jumps, and so on. Sometimes I pass by the river bank and hear the'burst' from the ship. Unfamiliar, just a few years, as long as decades or hundreds of years, it really seems like a lifetime.”
”It's normal.”
Yu Xin said, ”Everyone used to feel this way--have you grown up! By the way, you didn't want to go to a ship school or something?”
”No.”
Zhou Ping shook his head and said, ”You will not be allowed to be a captain as soon as you graduate. You have to start from the bottom. Even if the salary for going to sea is higher, it is normal not to go home for a year or a half. , My dad looks like this. My mom is getting older and her body is suffering from various diseases. She refused to push her to the hospital. It would be worse if I was not at home all the time.
”So, the dream of a boyhood, let’s just do it, haha, how can it be returned to the aircraft carrier? Even if my dad is not hit by a motorcycle, I cannot be the captain of the aircraft carrier. It’s just a child’s imagination. You say yes, right? I couldn't have been a captain, right?
”In short, now this job is located in our provincial capital, and the treatment is okay. I often have the opportunity to go home. If I work hard, I might be able to buy a suite in the provincial capital and bring my parents over— —This is my biggest dream now.”
”Not bad!”
Li Yao, Yu Xin, and Zhao Kai gave Zhou Ping a thumbs up together, ”Ambition boss, buying a house in the provincial capital is a hundred times more difficult than being the captain of an aircraft carrier or even a spacecraft. It really is an investment tycoon, a financial tycoon!”
All four laughed at once.
”The boss is all here, let me also talk about my childhood dream!”
Zhao Kai hiccuped and said, ”The lifelike dream that the boss said, in fact, I have also had it. Really, it’s not nonsense on the wine table, but I forgot the specific cartoon that was hooked up, or it may not be a cartoon. Is it something else.
”In short, when I was a child, I had a lot of weird and colorful dreams. In the dreams, I seemed to be a... Explorers don’t know the role of special forces. I don’t even look like a human, but have four arms. There is also a tail, and then I ran in all kinds of extremely harsh and dangerous environments, such as jungles, cliffs, volcanic lava, etc., running desperately, and there were many vicious alien monsters chasing me behind. Coming.
”I wondered, if people really have a previous life, then I was probably a fortified super special soldier in my previous life, going out to adventure, reconnaissance, and fighting all day long. Haha, isn't it exciting?
”Then, affected by these weird dreams, I have been very active since I was a child, and I couldn't sit down for a second. My parents and teachers said that I had needles on my buttocks.
”I like to go to physical education class, or go out and run wild on the street after school, go climbing trees, climbing stairs, etc., once, even my parents didn’t know about it. The big tree fell down, it was a dozen meters tall, at least three or four stories high. Guess what, I seemed to have awakened some power in mid-air. I suddenly saw all the bones and muscles in my body, like a cat. I adjusted my posture in mid-air, and landed gently and skillfully. There was nothing except my feet, really nothing!”
The three of Li Yao exclaimed.
However, speaking of Zhao Kai's physical fitness is really good, people who usually stay in the dormitory to read novels, have excellent sports performance, and have long hands and feet, but the torso is not clumsy at all, just like a big spider.
”Oh, if I was born ten or twenty years later, I should know that I should be a parkour or rock climber, or an explorer or something in my life.”
Zhao Kai sighed, ”At that time, we didn't know these professions, only gymnasts.”
”It's not bad to be a gymnast.”
Yu Xindao, ”Your athletic talent is so great, didn't you try it?”
”But a gymnastics coach came to our elementary school to pick up the seedlings, and he also fell in love with me.”
Zhao Kai said, ”Do you think my parents can agree? The gymnastics is such a delicious bowl of rice. Of course, it is beautiful to win the championship. It is not possible to win the championship. If you are injured, you can't make it to practice. What should I do in the future? So? , Let’s study honestly. Later, there are more and more books to be studied. The physical education class in our school has changed beyond words. After school, there is no time to climb trees and run wildly all over the streets, just like the boss said. , There are fewer and fewer strange dreams of adventures on alien planets, so the'spirituality' is naturally gone!”
”Yes, playing sports is not easy.”
Yu Xin thought for a while, ”Then do you like gymnastics, rock climbing, or parkour?”
