440 See you in a few days
After returning to Dongcheng, the first thing I did was to contact the monkey.
Not only did I contact him, I also went to find him. He also lived in an unfinished building on East Street. The place is now more and more like a home. Not only did he use a board to surround him, but he also had a refrigerator and color TV inside. It's really awesome...
"How about it, I'm a big living room." The monkey sat on the second-hand sofa that I found from somewhere, spread his hands and said to me proudly.
"Big." I looked around and was speechless. Nonsense, whose living room is thousands of square meters?
The monkey is a fourth generation of black people. Needless to say, the family conditions are all the money. In contrast, Huang Jie and Zheng Wu, who came from a small family and poor family, really want to spend a penny in half. This is the difference. Monkeys who are used to living a good life can survive in such a difficult environment, and they also live a very pleasant and romantic life - you can tell that the New Year couplets on the door panel and a few pots of cactus in the corner. Monkeys still pay quite attention to the quality of life.
"My sofa, although it's not good-looking, it's an Italian brand. I don't know which official moved the house and dealt it with the scrap station at a low price, and then I made it back. Really, this sofa is very good, all made of calfskin. Look at how exquisite the workmanship is..."
I believe in the monkey's eyesight, but I am really not interested in the sofa. I interrupted him and asked, "Have you completed the transfer procedures?"
"It's done, haven't you done it yet? Zuo Fei, you can't do it like this."
"Not yet, my dad will get it for me in the past two days."
In this way, I finally brought the topic back to the main line. I touched the cowhide on the sofa, which was indeed delicate and soft. I imagined the killed Italian calf and asked casually: "I don't know if Huang Jie's procedures were completed."
“What procedures?”
"The transfer procedures, you're just Alzheimer's disease after the New Year, aren't we talking about transferring schools?"
"You are dementia?" The monkey looked up and down at me and said, "You forgot? Huang Jie is the boss of South Street and can't even get busy. Why are you going to North Street with us?"
I was stunned for a moment: "Then won't he go to No. 11 Middle School?"
"I definitely won't go. This time I am the only one, you, Zheng Wu, and the three of us." In fact, there is Ma Jie, and Monkey didn't count him.
The monkey was still happily touching his cowhide sofa, but my heart was like a needle pricking it, with an indescribable pain and sadness. I knew it was my pretentious illness again, but I really couldn't calm down now. Monkey, Huang Jie and Zheng Wu (not counting Ma Jie), and I have been together from No. 1 Middle School to No. 7 Middle School, and then to No. 3 Middle School. Now I am going to No. 11 Middle School, but one person is missing. How can I not feel sad? Before the final exam, Huang Jie was so busy that everyone didn't get along well. Now, I just don't even go to school together!
As I thought about it, my heart became inexplicably sad.
Of course I didn't show it. I was afraid that the monkey would say that I was pretentious, because it wouldn't be a big deal if I talked about it in detail - what's wrong if I didn't go to school together? Wang Yao and Maomao haven't gone to school with us yet, so it's not like that. Shouldn't we meet and meet again?
The monkey was not sad at all, and began to show off his TV again, saying that the TV was a classic model of a certain brand. Although the size was a little smaller, the resolution was quite good and the picture quality was very clear. He also adjusted from CCTV one to CCTV Twelve, and let me see it one by one.
"Did you see it? It's not worse than yours, right?" The monkey slapped the TV shell with pride.
As a result, the TV was gone, and the monkey took pictures several times, but there was still no picture. He pressed the buttons back and forth, turned on and off, turned off and on, and lifted the pot of the channel to collect the channel and put it down.
"The TV is good." I sincerely praised.
"Wait, I'll fix it for you right away." The monkey scratched his ears and his head anxiously.
"I'm hungry."
"If you have food in the refrigerator, do it yourself." The monkey took the screwdriver and prepared to remove the TV from a large amount.
As soon as I opened the refrigerator door, a foul stinking came out.
"Damn, what's the matter?" I called out.
The monkey ran over, pulled out everything inside, slapped his thigh and said, "Damn it, the refrigeration is broken, I have to find the profiteer who collects waste!"
I was so amused that you could not buy new ones and had to clean up these rags. No matter how classic styles were, they were outdated!
The monkey said angrily, Zuo Fei, you really don’t feel hurt when you stand and speak. You are exactly the same as Emperor Hui of Jin who said, “Why not eat meat minced”? How could you, a rich man like you, understand the sorrow of the poor people like us!
"...You dare to say that you are poor if you buy a yo-yo for 3,000 yuan?"
"Oh, I regret it. I shouldn't have been a big deal before. Now anyone who gives me five dollars will be my real father..."
I immediately took out five dollars.
The monkey snatched it over: "It's still my nephew's filial piety." Then he sat on the sofa.
The sofa collapsed with a "boom", and the monkey also lay on the ground with his feet facing the sky and the earth.
"It's right!" I cursed fiercely.
While there was still time during the holiday, I went to find Huang Jie again.
I felt very uncomfortable when I thought that we couldn’t go to school together at No. 11 Middle School and wanted to have a good meal with him before school started. Now Huang Jie is very busy. It’s really not easy to see him once. I waited for him in the lobby of the first floor of Zhang Dagui’s club for a long time. Huang Jie kept telling me that it was soon, it was almost 11 o’clock in the evening when he actually arrived.
"Are you hungry?" Although Huang Jie looked tired, he still smiled and dressed meticulously.
Even at 11 o'clock in the evening, it is still exquisite. The black suit, shiny leather shoes, and the famous watch on the arms that are worth a lot of money, and it is almost the same route as Maomao.
It's only been a few days ago, Huang Jie seemed to have become a different person, just like the exquisite entrepreneurs on TV. Now it seems that Wang Yao still maintains her original simple style.
"It's okay." I stood up. I have always paid great attention to dressing up, but I'm still a little student-inspired when compared to Huang Jie. Huang Jie looks very capable and mature now.
"Let's go." Huang Jie led me upstairs, and Zhao Mingming, Liu Xiaochong and others followed him, which was exactly the same as his dress.
When we arrived at the door of a private room, Huang Jie and I went in, while Zhao Mingming and others stood at the door.
"Hey, won't they come in and have something together?"
"Let them keep it, everything is going to be regular now."
The Western food Huang Jie invited me to, steak, foie gras, salad, red wine, and borscht, all looked very ordinary, but I knew it was of great value. We had Western food once before, but that time, except for me, they didn’t know how to use knife and fork. They basically got started directly, and they didn’t care whether the waiter joked or not. In fact, I think monkeys should know how to use it, but he just started it on purpose.
Now, Huang Jie is skillfully using knife and fork, like a returnee who has been abroad for more than ten years.
But I know that he must have learned it recently.
The private room is as warm as spring, and there is a faint fragrance in the air, everything is so refreshing.
While we were having a meal, we were chatting together. I didn't mention the matter of No. 11 Middle School. I was afraid that I would cry when I was talking. I felt that this was really possible with my serious pretentious disease. So I said that I was happy, saying that I went to find monkey a few days ago, and that his funny color TV, refrigerator, and sofa made Huang Jie very sad.
But no matter how hard he was, he always paid attention to his image and maintained a refined and mature demeanor.
I asked him about South Street again, and Huang Jie said it was very good, everything was well, everything was on the right track. I knew that with Huang Jie's ability, there would be no problem. I said yes, come and toast you, then pick up the red wine and touched Huang Jie.
Somehow, I feel that we are getting farther and farther away, and it seems that we can never go back to carry two bottles of white wine in the playground, and we can chat overnight with peanuts...
Huang Jie asked me again if I had visited Pork Rong. I said I had been there and had just returned from my hometown. After all, it was my godfather. I brought him two good cigarettes, two bottles of good wine, and two boxes of good tea, which cost me several thousand yuan.
Huang Jie laughed again and said that he should have it. He had also visited Pork Rong, which was similar to what I carried, and he was doing his best.
Somehow, I really hope that Huang Jie will make a joke about "nephew" now, but he doesn't.
From beginning to end, neither of us mentioned the transfer to No. 11 Middle School. I guess he, like monkey, did not take this seriously at all. The jokes on TV that hugged their heads before parting are all fake. People in reality are not so pretentious at all. They should do whatever they should do.
After dinner, Huang Jie took me to the bath center upstairs for a bath. After taking a shower, he asked the best master to press his feet on both of us. When pressing his feet, Huang Jie asked me if I want a girl? They are all young and beautiful.
I said forget it, I'm afraid that Wang Yao would kill me. Huang Jie laughed and said he was teasing me.
After pressing my feet, I will cut my head, shaving my face, digging my ears, etc. I won’t mention it here. After finishing these, Huang Jie wants to take me to the bar to play again. I said forget it, it’s not too early. I’ll go back to bed, so you can rest early too.
It's really not too early, it's already past two in the morning. Island Holy Day number.
Huang Jie said OK, let me play with him another day, and then took me downstairs. He now has a car, so he directly called a driver to take me off. When I was about to wave goodbye to him, Huang Jie suddenly showed an indescribable expression, as if he had something to say.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Zuo Fei, I've been holding it all night, so I decided to tell you."
"You said." I immediately became energetic. I probably wanted to talk about the matter of No. 11 Middle School, and only this matter was kept in our hearts.
"Do you still remember the bet we had about the exam? You still didn't give me five dollars..." Huang Jie rubbed his hands and said embarrassedly.
"..." I was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, and took out five dollars from my wallet to give it to him.
Huang Jie pretended happily.
"Let's go!" I got into the car and waved at him.
"Let's go."
He also waved his hand: "See you in 11th Middle School in a few days!"
Chapter completed!
