During the National Day, Jian Mingcheng took the children of the School Roller Association to the Free Roller Skating Hall for training, and his image in the eyes of the students instantly grew.Guo Shaoyang also flattered him before and after. He thought that Jian Mingcheng knew nothing about roller skating, and asking him at that time was just a matter of routine, but he didn't expect him to be so caring.

In fact, Jian Mingcheng posted the money himself, last time he didn't have his mobile phone with him, so he didn't leave Liao Jingfan's contact information, but this time he came here on business, and didn't go through any back door.

He didn't expect to see Gu Enzhong here, so he just sat on the sidelines and watched when the children were training in the field this time to fulfill the promise made half a month ago.There are a few who are going to participate in the dance event of the National College Students Freestyle Skating Championship in December. From his layman's perspective, they are very capable.

He hasn't watched Gu Enzhong's performance in "Roller Skating Life" yet, so he doesn't know what his level is, but it should be pretty impressive to be able to be said to be a professional roller skater's stand-in performance.

Guo Shaoyang slid all the way from the arena and asked him: "Teacher, you really don't want to come in to play?" He didn't believe that Jian Mingcheng was so enthusiastic about their round association, and he would be a complete novice, he was more willing to believe that it was Jian Mingcheng I don't want to make trouble with a bunch of their students.

Jian Mingcheng waved his hand and said "No", at this moment he glanced and found that Liao Jingfan was walking towards him.It turned out that the staff who received them just now had seen him when he came with Gu Enzhong last time, and remembered him, knowing that he was probably a friend of the boss, so they rushed to inform Liao Jingfan.

Liao Jingfan came and sat down beside him, and asked, "What's the matter? It's a holiday this time, so you're not busy?" Obviously, he was teasing him for saying that he was busy with work last time, so he might not be able to come here for the second time.But this time he not only came, but also brought a large group of people with him.

Jian Mingcheng felt that their relationship was not good enough to joke with each other, so he looked a little embarrassed, and said, "The students from the school's roller skating association are coming here for training, so I'll come with them to have a look. "

Liao Jingfan smiled meaningfully, but did not expose his lie.Guo Shaoyang saw that Jian Mingcheng had an acquaintance coming, so he also slid back to the court early. At this time, he was practicing flat ground tricks with a female student.

Liao Jingfan handed him a business card, Jian Mingcheng took it, and saw his phone number and other contact information on it.It doesn't matter if you don't bring your phone this time.

"Actually, I just came here to pass a message." He handed him his business card and said, "He's waiting for you in the parking lot outside."

Jian Mingcheng naturally knew who the "he" Liao Jingfan was talking about was.Seeing that the students were training very seriously, he instantly felt that he was a superfluous role, so he stood up and said, "Then I... will leave first."

He looked at the field, Liao Jingfan knew what he was worried about, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will tell them later."

Jian Mingcheng nodded as a thank you, and then walked out impatiently.

The parking lot here is not big, so he easily found Gu Enzhong's car, but he couldn't help slowing down when he came up to him, then took a deep breath, opened the door of the passenger seat and sat in.

Gu Enzhong was wearing sunglasses, and now he took them off and looked at him, asking, "Any other plans for today?"

Jian Mingcheng shook his head, he nodded knowingly, and started the car.

This time they went to Gu Enzhong's house in the city center. Because of Jian Mingche's harassment, he moved once, and Jian Mingcheng also came here once.

The last time he came here, he was very embarrassed because of drunkenness, and he didn't dare to look at the house after waking up. This time he found that there were many things that could be called "antiques" in Gu Enzhong's house, such as An old-fashioned radio that is rarely seen on the market now.

In the distance of the times, things like radios once had a halo.Watches, bicycles, and radios are the three major items of Chinese people in the 60s and [-]s of the last century. A radio belongs to the high-end household appliances in residents' homes.But with the development of the times, many things have declined like this.

Jian Mingcheng saw a very familiar icon on the radio, so he pointed to it and said, "When I was young, my grandfather also had a TV of this brand at home, and it was a very old black and white TV. I remember this logo very clearly. , it’s the panda brand.”

Gu En said with a heavy smile: "But this is not something I had when I was a child. It was just a chance, and I bought it from an old man in the country."

Jian Mingcheng said, "I didn't expect you to have the hobby of collecting such things."

Gu Enzhong's radio can listen to FM broadcasts, and it's not too old.In the 70s, the vast majority of my country's radio stations were AM broadcasts, and most of the domestic radios in that era only had the function of medium and short wave reception.FM radio didn't start airing until after the 80s.

Jian Mingcheng was curious and wanted to try whether the radio could still work, but Gu Enzhong stopped him and said: "This thing is just a decoration now, and it was broken when I received it, so the old man just picked it up." Will sell it to me."

Jian Mingcheng asked, "Can't it be fixed?"

"It can be repaired, but it's just troublesome. I'm not a pragmatist. If it's broken, it's broken. Take it back and keep it as a collection and appreciation." He said.

In addition, Gu Enzhong also collected old-fashioned gramophones.He has a very old, old-fashioned gramophone, without the usual big speakers on TV, and it looks much more plain, just a small box.Usually it was basically put on the shelf, but now Jian Mingcheng dug it out, and the two of them opened the lid together.

Although the outside of the box is dusty, the inside is clean.Gu Enzhong dug out a few vinyl records from nowhere, and Jian Mingcheng picked out a pleasing one, carefully placed the record on the velvet round pad, then patted the box, touched the lid, and looked at Gu Enzhong.

Gu Enzhong smiled, knowing that he couldn't deal with such an old thing, so he reached out his hand to help him.Gu Enzhong took out a metal crank handle from the side of the box, and a plastic sleeve was wrapped on the top of the crank handle.He poked the metal handle into a hole in the wall of the box, slowly shook it a dozen times, and saw the record start to spin.

Jian Mingcheng noticed that this kind of record player does not need to be powered on, so he speculated that it might be because of the spring inside.At this time, Gu Enzhong took out a metal tube from the belly of the box. There was a cartridge at the front end of the metal tube. The groove began to vibrate, and the music recorded on the record was thus reproduced.

When the sound came out, Jian Mingcheng was pleasantly surprised as if he had harvested a treasure. What he sang seemed to be a folk song from somewhere, with a melodious tune, but before he had time to be happy, the music stopped abruptly and the record stopped spinning.

The two checked up and down, inside and out for a while, but they still didn't find anything wrong. Even if they did it all over again, they always couldn't sing any more before singing a few lines.Jian Mingcheng complained: "Why do you keep collecting such old things, none of them are good."

Gu Enzhong didn't refute anything, so the two continued to laugh and put away their things, and Gu Enzhong continued to show him around his house.

Gu En re-plays roller skating, so naturally he also has a pair of roller skates of his own. He pays great attention to the maintenance of the shoes, and regularly checks the degree of wear of the wheels, so the treatment of the shoes is not the same as that of the old-fashioned gramophone.

Jian Mingcheng watched as he carefully dismantled the wheel, checked the worn surface, and cleaned the bearings. He was very skillful.The bearing was a little rusty, so he frowned, stood up and said to Jian Mingcheng, "I'm going to get something from the garage downstairs, and you can find some grease for me." He compared his hands and said, "It's just a small bottle, which cabinet should it be in?"

Jian Mingcheng thought of something absent-mindedly, and his ears became hot instantly, but Gu Enzhong walked out of the room without looking back as if he didn't see it.

There are several cabinets in this room, and there are a lot of sundries in them. At first glance, they are useless, but when they are really needed, they may play a very important role.While admiring that he didn't throw away these things when he moved, Jian Mingcheng rummaged through the cabinet, and soon found a half-used bottle of lubricating grease for small and medium-sized bearings. return.

He took out the grease and was just about to close the cabinet when he noticed an upside-down picture frame in the cabinet.There was a battle between heaven and man in his heart, and he knew that it was wrong to peek at other people's photos like this, but he couldn't restrain his curiosity.

Gu Enzhong didn't have a photo of his family in his home. It was understandable that he was single, but it was a bit strange that he didn't even have a photo of himself.

There is no group photo of the whole family in Jian Mingcheng's apartment, but there are one or two photos of the two siblings.He really wanted to see what Gu Enzhong's old photos looked like. He likes to collect old things so much, so there must be a lot of old photos.

So curiosity finally conquered everything, he turned over the photo frame lightly, but he couldn't help being taken aback when he saw the person on the photo.

This person is not Gu Enzhong.

The boy in the photo was tall, but he looked only sixteen or seventeen years old, with a cool expression and didn't smile much, as if someone always owed him.

"That's my brother." Gu Enzhong suddenly appeared at the door and said.Jian Mingcheng was caught on the spot, feeling very embarrassed, so he wanted to tell a joke to relieve the embarrassment.He said: "Could it be that he is the legendary 'Gu Rushan'?"

The joke was obviously not funny, Gu Enzhong said: "No, his name is 'Gu Zhao'."

Jian Mingcheng put down the photo, put it on the table, and said, "I never knew, so you have a younger brother."

Gu Enzhong went over and put the photo frame down again and put it in the cabinet, saying, "It's nothing." Jian Mingcheng noticed this detail, and his heart skipped a beat, feeling that something was uncomfortable.

What Gu Enzhong brought up was a small bottle of engine oil, and Jian Mingcheng gave him the bottle of grease, and he took the things into the bathroom to clean the bearings. Jian Mingcheng stood at the door of the bathroom and said to him: "What do you have in the refrigerator? I Let's cook."

Gu Enzhong stopped him and said, "No, we won't eat here at noon. I'll take you back to school later, is that okay?"

Jian Mingcheng was stunned for a moment, he thought...

Without waiting for his answer, Gu Enzhong turned his head away and continued to lubricate the bearing balls.Jian Mingcheng stood at the door, watched his movements, nodded silently, and replied softly: "Okay."
