Chapter 89: Third Year (1/2)
When Tang Jinyu first moved to Shanghai, he would go back with Chen Suling for a few days to visit his former friends every summer vacation. A part of Chen Suling's women's clothing factory stayed here where they used to live. While she was busy working, Tang Jinyu went to meet his friends by himself.
A group of children gather together every summer vacation. Guo Xiaohu was the most active among them. When Tang Jinyu came back the first year, he even happily did a somersault in the street and ran around happily. He put Tang Jinyu's bag on his head, his school bag strap was hanging to his ears, his head held high, and he strode forward, turning his head and shouting to them: ”Xiaoyu, hurry up! Keep up!”
Guo Xiaohu also brought gifts, and he brought Tang Jinyu a fitness bar.
This was something that the school brought for inter-class exercises. The red and yellow plastic rod in the middle is very similar to the one used by Sun Wukong, the great sage of Qi. The little students call this ”Golden Hoop Stick”, and they are eager to go to the west.
Tang Jinyu took it and turned it around twice, and asked him, ”How do you use this thing?”
Guo Xiaohu gave him a demonstration, ”Just use it like this is for exercise. Everyone has one, didn’t you get one?”
Tang Jinyu shook his head, ”No, it may be different for different places.”
Guo Xiaohu was very proud and performed a complete set for him.
Tang Jinyu couldn't take care of him by himself, and couldn't help but think in his mind. The students in the school were strong with a golden hoop. It was hard to imagine the scene when he waved it.
He watched and enjoyed it.
After Guo Xiaohu finished his performance for him, he excitedly said, ”Last time back to school, there was a lecture. There was a learning machine that was very good. Many people bought it. Would you like one Xiaoyu? I'll give you one!”
Han Yixing inherited the sense of justice inherited by the Han family, and said politely: ”It was not a school lecture, it was promoted by the school from outside, and the learning machine was not good. Five hundred yuan a piece is simply a scam! Our head teacher said that they wouldn’t buy it, but why do you want to buy it?”
Guo Xiaohu scratched his head. He had a good face, so he basically bought all the things recommended for sale in school. When the little girl said this, he blushed, and he didn't know how to refute it.
Han Yixing said: ”You should learn Xiaoji, he is very good, he doesn't buy anything.”
Tang Jinyu: ”…”
Tang Jinyu glanced at Ji Yuanjie. The boy lowered his head and tried to conceal his guilty conscience. When he saw him, he made a begging gesture carefully.
Tang Jinyu laughed, nodded slightly, and didn't expose him.
On the other hand, Guo Xiaohu and Han Yixing have already quarreled with each other again. Since childhood, neither of them has been soft when it came to themselves. They both felt that they were particularly reasonable, but now it wasn’t even about the matter of buying things anymore. Guo Xiaohu rose to a higher level, his face flushed and said angrily: ”Why do you listen to teachers so much!”
”Why wouldn’t I listen to the teachers when I go to school! My mother said, ”You should study hard in school, and don't take shortcuts!”
”You still listen to your mother's words, you must have no opinion!”
The little girl put her hands on her hips and said angrily: ”My mother is right, why wouldn’t I be obedient! And my mother cooks deliciously. Today, my mother said she would make red spareribs. She is so tired from work and still has to think about me, so I must be obedient! ”
…
No matter how intense the quarrel on both sides were, Tang Jinyu will always be the peacemaker.
Tang Jinyu calmed the two sides and had to look back to comfort his old classmates. Xiaoji didn’t know why, but he had always envied Guo Xiaohu, who was able to quarrel with the stars. He felt that the relationship between the two was better than with him, but Tang Jinyu watched as Han Yixing preferred Xiaoji.
Several people were noisy, but they reconciled after a while.
As long as a group of friends get together, they don’t have to go to any special place. Sometimes they go to the small park where they played when they were little, sometimes they go to fast food restaurants to eat burgers and chat, and sometimes they just sat on stone steps in the shade of the corner, talking and laughing, and sharing each other's study and life.
