It is actually very convenient to return from London to Boulogne-sur-Mare, but it has been almost a year since I arrived in London, but Ribery has never been back.

There have been countless times when he wondered with his wife whether Boulogne would know him? Will the people here discuss him like they would discuss Papan? Will the young people pay attention to him by following the news in the newspaper? Will the adults take him out as a good model and teach their children a lesson?

All of this, he could only think about it, because he had never come back.

It was a very contradictory feeling, because he once told himself that if he did not make a name for himself, he would never return to Boulogne.

In London, Frank Ribery is a bold and fearless guy in everyone's eyes. Compared with a year ago, the biggest difference between him and his brick-moving worker's outfit, he took off his gangster's aura, and gradually made him look a little star-like. The only thing that remains unchanged is the shocking scar on his face.

As for people, which one does not determine the head?

In London, when Chelsea players performed slightly better, a lot of reporters were chasing behind their butts. Who would be willing to show their most embarrassing side? Even Messi and Fabregas, two stinky kids, began to wash their hair with hair wax. If Ribery didn't transform, he wouldn't be able to adapt to that environment at all.

Not only him, but even his wife has changed a lot. After getting dressed and tasted better, she finally looks like a rich wife. All of this is brought by the environment because they want to integrate into the environment in London, Chelsea.

But all this is just the surface

Only two people know the deepest thoughts in Ribery, one is his wife and the other is his head coach.

Sometimes he believes in fate very much, so he believes that Ye Qiu is looking for him because of the opportunity brought to him by God, so he trusts Ye Qiu very much. He says everything to Ye Qiu, and even asks Ye Qiu for his opinion even if he wants to move and find a house.

Just two days ago, when everyone was actively preparing for the Champions League final, Ye Qiu found Ribery and gave him dozens of tickets, telling him that this was the ticket arranged by the club for the players' families and relatives, and that he could arrange his family to London and go to Gelsenkirchen with the families of other players and staff of the team.

Later, Ye Qiu told him that the team would re-design a contract for him this summer and give him a salary increase, so he had the idea of ​​buying his own house near London, which could be fulfilled. In addition, Ye Qiu also told him that some things should be solved and that they should not always have a bond in their hearts.

So today, Ribery took a day off and went home

Although the taxi driver was not a fan, he recognized Ribery. The reason was very simple, the scars on his face.

"You are the easiest to recognize in the French national team, and my son said, you played great at Chelsea, it's amazing."

Because Ribery signed him a name for his son, the taxi driver refused to ask for his car money. When he walked off the taxi, he saw this familiar Boulogne, a familiar neighborhood that he lived since childhood.

This city is not big and it is easy to meet acquaintances.

As Ribery walked towards her home, a young man came towards her.

"Hi, the Brownie's Warrior" Ribery raised his hand and said hello.

"Go to your mom warrior" the young man cursed and passed by him, but he stopped before he could walk two steps. Turning back and seeing Ribery still walking forward, he quickly turned around and chased after him, "Frank? It's really you, Frank."

"You scolded me just now." Ribery waved his fist, but his expression was smiling.

"Oh, please, who made you laugh at me like you did in the past?" The boy from the Brownie laughed and defended, "You know, I haven't thrown stones at the dock for a long time. I'm going to play football now. I want to play professional leagues and join the national team like you."

Young people are always easy to follow the trend and follow the same thing. Ribery used to do this in the past, but he learned Papan and Zidane, and now he has become the object of learning for children here.

"Good, the Brownie's Warrior" said frankly, Ribery's smile was a bit hideous, but full of kindness.

Walking into the corridor, he quickly hovered up the stairs, and soon arrived at the floor where my father was.

He shouldn't be there at this time, so Ribery walked to the gate with confidence, rang the doorbell, and after two or three sounds, he saw an old middle-aged woman coming out to open the door. It was his mother, a middle-aged woman who was so old that she didn't match her actual age and looked a little obese.

"Frank" mother saw that it was Ribery through the security door. Her eyes turned red and tears fell down because she hadn't seen her son for a long time. If she hadn't received a call from him occasionally, she would have doubted whether her son was dead.

"Mom" Ribery hugged his mother the moment the door opened.

"Come in, come on," the mother pulled Ribery into the house.

"Is he here?" Ribery asked.

Ribery has always been very conflicted about his father, because his father is the one who opposes him playing football the most, and even forces him to be a brick mover for a while. After he secretly ran to London, his father was furious about it, calling him a completely irresponsible man, and even made a statement that he would never come back.

Ribery is a very proud person at heart. He once made a promise to himself that he would not come back unless he became famous, because he wanted to prove to his father that his persistence and persistence were not wrong, and he really made his own world by playing football.

The decorations in the house are still so simple. The living room is full of various construction tools, which should have been moved from the construction site. It is said that there is no place to put them at home for the time being. But in fact, in order to save some rent, I didn’t rent a warehouse and just used the living room at home as a warehouse?

Fortunately, Ribery's family has not many customers and they are all acquaintances, so it's not too strange.

As soon as he entered the door, the earthy smell of the construction site was filled with, which made Ribery feel very familiar because he grew up in such an atmosphere since he was a child, and he had lived on the construction site for a long time, and his body had a natural sense of intimacy with this smell.

"You sit first, I'll pour you a glass of water." The mother pulled Ribery to the sofa with many holes in the living room. "Your dad recently booked a construction site and said he could make some money, but you also know that fewer and fewer people are willing to go to such hardworking jobs and can't find workers, so he has to do it himself, and he has to come back very late every day."

It is conceivable how hard it would be for a middle-aged man in his fifties to do such physical work.

Ribery sat on the sofa and looked around, and he actually found newspapers at home.

It was like Columbus discovered the New World. Ribery couldn't help laughing, because in his impression, his father, who was born in Mud Leg, rarely went to read newspapers. The only thing that impressed him was that a long time ago, during the district council election, the elected MP gave each family a newspaper, but many years have passed.

Team report

Ribery took a newspaper and found that it was the team newspaper. The cover was a scene where all the players took photos with the Premier League champion Gold Cup after Chelsea won the league championship a few days ago. The atmosphere was very warm.

However, in this photo, Ribery found that someone used a thick black pen to tick out one of the people, as if to make it easier to see, and this person was Ribery.

There is also a photo of Ribery kissing the champion gold cup, which was also opened and folded on top.

Not only these two copies, Ribery quickly looked through other newspapers and found that almost all newspapers were opened, and many newspapers were marked with thick black pens, obviously to follow Chelsea news, while almost all reports related to Chelsea, especially Ribery, were turned to the most conspicuous place.

Suddenly, Ribery felt like her chest was blocked by something, very stuffy and hot.

When I turned on the TV, I found that my father, who had never watched those bad sitcoms, was actually watching the football channel. If he hadn't seen all this with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it was true. Is this still the stubborn and indignant father?

"Your dad has been to London several times," said the mother, not knowing when she stood at the door of the kitchen and living room, and she said with tears in her eyes.

Ribery raised his head in disbelief, his eyes turned red. He didn't know why, but he only felt that a very sour and hot tears were about to rush out of his eyes. He tried his best to endure it, but he still couldn't help it.

"He didn't let me say it, but I could tell that he was really happy," said the mother, wiping away her tears and smiling.

"You know, he has never been to a big city in his life. He suddenly went to London and had no idea what he should do. And he didn't understand how to watch your game. Even English was in a mess, so the first time I failed. I heard that I went to a tavern and watched the game with people there, but that time, you didn't play."

Ribery had no idea which game his mother was talking about, but this added a little more authenticity, because they didn't understand football, league, or anything. He even believed that his father went to London just to watch his game.

"After he came back, he said that the fans in the tavern were good to him and knew Frank Ribery, so he taught him how to watch the game on site, so he went again not long after, and this time he learned to be smart, so he went directly to the stadium with a taxi, but he couldn't buy the tickets. He just moved outside the stadium for more than an hour and didn't leave until the end of the game."

"But when he came back, he was very happy because he said that although he didn't understand English, he heard many fans who left the court mentioned your name, and they said that you performed well in that game, and he also learned how to buy tickets and watch the game. But then he went back to the London tavern to watch live TV with those people because he said that your tickets were ridiculously expensive."

"Although he has never been able to watch your game on site, he often goes to London because he said that he likes the feeling of listening to the fans in the bar talking about you, very proud and proud."

Listening to his mother's words, Ribery's tears fell down unsatisfactorily.

Once, he thought he was a very strong person who could take feelings very lightly, but in fact, when things came, he found that there were many things he had always been upset and could not let go of.

His father didn't have much education and didn't know how to get along with his children. Beating and scolding was his best way to train his children. This once made Ribery wonder whether his father still loved him, but now, he suddenly realized that not all love was said, and many times, true love was not spoken by his mouth.

Just as Ribery was chatting with her mother, she heard a sound of opening the door outside the security door. Both of them immediately stood up, especially Ribery, who found that his father came back a little early today.

It was indeed his father who opened the door and came in, but there was a thin layer of bandage wrapped around his right arm, and there was still some blood on it. When he entered the door, he was still swearing and saying that he was so unlucky that he was actually injured.

It is inevitable to live on the construction site and get injured and bleeding. Ribery often scratched and injured himself or was hit by bricks. These are very common, so it is not surprising to see his father being injured.

When his father entered the door, he saw Ribery, he was obviously stunned for a moment. What was hard to hide was surprise, but soon, he used his father's self-esteem to suppress the surprise in his heart. Even in the past period of time, Ribery was his pride, the topic of discussion and envy of everyone in Boulogne, but in front of him, his son was his son.

Surprise was replaced by coldness. In front of outsiders, he, a father, could be proud of his son, but in front of his son, he had to act very cold and disapprovingly. This is indeed the strangest thing in the world.

"I'll give the tickets." Ribery took out a whole stack of tickets from his pocket, with dozens of them. "The game was held in Gelsenkirchen, Germany. It would be more troublesome to go from Boulogne. You can go to London first, and I'll let Vahiba accompany you."

When he said these words, Ribery's tone was still a little tough. This was the usual tone of the father and son's conversation in the past. But after he finished speaking, he clearly realized that his tone was not right, so he walked out of the sofa, walked to his father, and handed out a stack of tickets, "I hope you can come to our game, Dad."

Dad made Old Ribery's hand tremble obviously, and his eyes turned red, but he forced himself to do so, but he gently let go of his hand and took the stack of tickets handed over by Ribery. He was even thinking that he could proudly give it to the workers, to relatives and friends, and show off his son.

The father and son face each other but couldn't speak, and the atmosphere was awkward for a few seconds.

"I have to train early tomorrow morning, so I'll go back first." After that, Ribery was about to leave.

While "Frank" passed by, Old Ribery called out to his son, "Since you're back, then have dinner before leaving. I don't have to worry about this time anyway."

Ribery turned around and saw his mother with anticipation. He knew that this was his father's biggest concession.

Sometimes he doesn't understand why his father can't be as generous and kind as other people's fathers? He always has to put on his posture and be a strong father's majesty. Isn't this hard work?

If it was in the past, he did not understand his father's thoughts and his care, he would resist, but now, he does not resist.

"Okay," Ribery nodded with a smile, but a warm glow on her somewhat terrifying face.

The father turned his back to Ribery, and at the angle that his son could not see, he showed a smile that seemed to be there and had not yet, and walked to the living room. "In the future, you don't have to come here in person. Just call me directly. Don't affect your training. If the head coach finds out, you will definitely be unhappy."

The tone is very hard, but it is out of care and concern.

"We are very good to me, he asked me to come back." Ribery followed his father and walked back to the living room.

"No matter how good you are to you, you have to play football well." The father was still warning that he was afraid that his son would be proud of his reputation. You must know that Ribery was very hooligan before.

"Okay OK, OK, Frank is back, don't say too much." In any family, parents always pretend to be kind and majestic, so Ribery's mother was afraid that the father and son would have a quarrel, so she stood up and resolved the problem. Ribery also stopped when she saw the opportunity and said nothing more.

Sometimes he also reflects on himself. When his son grows up, many things are no longer controlled by him. He also knows very well that he is unable to keep up with this era and his thoughts are a bit stubborn. If he controls too much, it may not be a good thing. It is better to let go and let his children fight freely.

Father and son are father and son. Blood is thicker than water. There is no knot that cannot be dissolved or untied.

With a good start, the conversation between the father and son seemed much more pleasant.

While having dinner, Old Ribery also asked about the Champions League finals. Seeing that his father talked about football now, he looked very good at football, but he couldn't hide the truth about his fake fans. Ribery felt funny and was also a little moved because he knew that his father learned about football for him.

Regarding the Champions League final, Ribery confessed that he should not be able to start, because Ye Qiu's tactics must be mainly 43l in this game. Ronaldinho and Lampard are in good condition. After a long period of adjustment, Davis recovered well and his physical fitness has improved. He should still start.

But Ribery is a surprise soldier in Ye Qiu's hands. As long as the game is stalemate, Ye Qiu will use Ribery sooner or later, so Ribery is still very confident that he can play games, because he is the best man in Ye Qiu's hands in the past season.

Although Old Ribery, like all his fathers, hoped that his son would be the best and felt that his son was the best, he also knew that his son used to play in the amateur league and had only played in a professional league for a year. It was already a very great thing to be able to play in the Champions League finals. How could he hope to get more?
