The bicycle stopped somewhere in the alley, and the two of them arrived at their home.

These are two adjacent ordinary houses, both three floors, with similar areas and decoration styles.

Su Zelin looked at the small houses. Compared with the mid-level mansions he had lived in, they were located deep in the alleys and were inconspicuous in terms of location and size. However, he was instantly excited.

Because he had hurt Qin Shiqing's relationship in his previous life, and his relationship with his family was completely broken, his father had promised that he would never allow him to step into the house, let alone Qin Shiqing's family next door.

"Clang!"

The Phoenix horizontal bar failed to steady itself and fell to the ground.

"Are you okay?"

Qin Shiqing was very surprised when she saw his appearance.

"It's okay!"

Su Zelin suppressed his excitement and helped the bicycle up, but his hands were still shaking slightly uncontrollably.

"Is it really okay?"

Qin Shiqing was a little worried. She had never seen her childhood sweetheart look so glum.

"I'm so verbose, I'm so good!"

Not wanting her to see her inner feelings, Su Zelin pushed the cart into her yard.

"Shall I go over and give you extra lessons tonight?"

"Huh, whatever you want!"

Qin Shiqing was slightly startled when she heard Su Zelin's response.

In the past, she wanted to give Su Zelin extra lessons on weekends, but this guy always refused impatiently.

Although Su Zelin responded with the same tone this time, the result was different.

He actually accepted it!

Zelin is really unusual this week. Maybe because the college entrance examination is approaching, he also realizes that he can no longer be so careless...

Use the key to open the door and go up to the second floor.

The layout of one living room, two rooms and one kitchen is just with floor tiles, no ceiling, no wallpaper, TV background wall or other fancy things. The sofas, tables, chairs, and coffee tables are all old-fashioned red lacquered wooden furniture.

A Panda color TV, an Aidoo VCD, a Watson ceiling fan and a kettle have become the main electrical appliances in the living room. Compared with future home decoration, hardware and software have been streamlined to the extreme.

But that's not important. What's important is the people in the house.

A middle-aged woman wearing a scarf walked out of the kitchen holding a spatula. When she saw Su Zelin, a smile appeared on her face: "Son, you're back!"

Zhao Lixia, Su Zelin’s mother.

There are not many wrinkles on my mother's face now, and she is smiling very kindly.

But this smile seemed like a lifetime ago to Su Zelin. His nose felt sore and his eyes instantly became moist. He dropped his backpack and walked over quickly, hugging Zhao Lixia tightly: "Mom!"

Zhao Lixia was stunned for a moment. Ever since Su Zelin became sensible, she had never seen her son cry: "Bad boy, what are you doing?"

"It's nothing, I just miss you. I'm so happy to see you!"

Su Zelin wiped his eyes and let go.

"We haven't seen each other for a week, what's there to worry about?"

Zhao Lixia was very surprised. Based on her understanding of her son, Su Zelin was not someone who would miss home.

"Haha, I feel like this week has been very long. It seems like we haven't seen each other for a long time!"

Su Zelin smiled.

"Weird!"

Zhao Lixia shook her head and didn't ask any more questions, thinking that Su Zelin was under pressure before the college entrance examination, so she exploded emotionally.

"I'll go see what's on offer!"

Su Zelin slipped into the kitchen.

I saw a plate of freshly prepared fried chicken with pineapple on the cupboard, one of his favorite dishes.

He reached out and picked up a piece and threw it into his mouth.

Delicious!

This is a home-cooked dish made by my mother. For Su Zelin, no matter whether it is a five-star hotel or a Michelin chef, he has to step aside!

Just as he was about to get the second piece, a spatula hit the back of his hand, but Zhao Lixia, who followed in, raised eyebrows and said, "You brat, have you washed your hands before eating!"

"Not yet. Mom's cooking is so delicious. I can't wait!"

Su Zelin didn't care and picked up the second piece with a smile.

"Don't change the subject, go and wash your hands immediately!"

"Yes, Your Majesty Mother!"

Su Zelin just walked out of the kitchen.

Zhao Lixia's stern face relaxed, and a subtle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

You brat, you know how to flatter!

After washing her hands, Su Zelin walked into her room and saw several celebrity posters on the wall.

Zhou Huimin, Wen Bixia, Zhang Manyu...

There is a stack of basketball magazines on the desk.

"Contemporary Sports: Dunk", "Slam Dunk SLAM", "NBA STUFF"...

Open the drawer and find it filled with comics.

"Kung Fu Tornado", "Hell Teacher", "The Three Cat Eye Sisters", "Baseball Heroes", "Rurouni Kenshin"...

In addition to comics, there is also a gameboy lying quietly.

The real-life version of memories kills!

Su Zelin opened a copy of "Baseball Heroes" and read it with great interest.

This is one of his favorite comics, from the island country cartoonist Adachi Mitsuru. The theme is baseball, but what it really tells is the story of a pair of childhood sweethearts.

After watching for a while, I heard the sound of the security door opening.

Su Zelin threw the comics back into the drawer, walked out, and saw a middle-aged man changing out of his leather shoes.

He has a tall build, a Chinese-character face, piercing eyes, and regular facial features. It can be seen that he must have been a handsome man when he was young.

"Dad!"

Su Zelin also gave him a firm hug.

Su Jianjun's reaction was as confusing as Zhao Lixia's.

After a long while, he uttered two words: "Don't do this with me, you don't have any pocket money anymore, right?"

Dad, it’s you as expected!

……

The Su and Qin families were both employees of the steel factory. Later, the two elders of the Su family went to work in the 1980s. In the new century, they also made a lot of money. They are not considered nouveau riche, but at least they have enough food and clothing to live a small life.

It's interesting, as you can see from Su Zelin's set of comic books and the gameboy. This thing is expensive.

The two elders of the Qin family were also laid off in the 1990s with the tide of state-owned enterprise reform, and they had to do business as a last resort. Fortunately, it was a blessing in disguise, and the quality of life was much better than when they were receiving dead wages in a steel factory.

Several home-cooked dishes were quickly prepared, and Zhao Lixia asked Su Zelin to call Qin Shiqing over.

Because of the business relationship, when both families are particularly busy, the other family will take the initiative to invite the neighbor's children to eat together.

In the dining room, Su Zelin, Su Jianjun, Zhao Lixia and Qin Shiqing all looked at each other in astonishment as they watched Su Zelin, Su Jianjun, Zhao Lixia and Qin Shiqing, who were devouring their food, taking off their chopsticks like flying, and never stopping their mouths.

In his third year of high school, Su Zelin, who is already 1.8 meters tall, is still in a state of height. He usually eats a lot, but even after returning from playing basketball, he never looked like a starving ghost reincarnated.

"Slow down, don't choke!"

While Zhao Lixia warned her worriedly, she wondered if her cooking skills had been extraordinary today. However, she picked up a few dishes and tasted them, but she didn't find that the taste was much better than usual.

"Shiqing, did this kid do something bad again last week? He spent all his food money early!"

Su Jianjun considered the key points of the problem.

The weekly meal allowance he gives his son is certainly generous compared to the class, and the school expenses are not expensive. Three meals a day plus fruits, snacks and drinks are more than enough, and there is even some money left to buy magazines or comics.
p>

But Su Zelin often let himself go as soon as he got the money, such as getting into the game room to play horse racing on the way to school, and squandering it in the blink of an eye. That's why he ordered his son to go to and from school with Qin Shiqing, letting the latter keep an eye on him.

.

But sometimes Qin Shiqing can't keep an eye on her even if she wants to. As soon as Su Zelin's bicycle accelerates, he can quickly get rid of this tail. With the physical strength of a girl, she will definitely not be able to catch up. Of course, Su Zelin will not be able to avoid it when he goes home to complain next week.

Dunbanzi.
