The world is very bitter, you are very sweet

That day Xu Li brought Xu Jingheng around to visit and get to know neighbors and folks. The next afternoon, he went to Luoyu Street to find a school, which was in a small town in H City.

This street is surprisingly large, and it is divided into East Street, West Street, South Street, and North Street...and there are many streets and alleys in each street, and there are so many long houses on the road, it is like a separate small town.

As Xu Li said, it's really chaotic here. They encountered two waves of gangsters when they first entered the street. Those people didn't give money for taking things from other people's stalls, and some even asked others for protection fees.

The street that father and son are visiting now is called North Street, Luoyu North Street.There are places to eat, play and shop here, as well as kites and lanterns. There is also a fortune-telling grandfather sitting on the side of the road wearing a pair of black sunglasses.

But... for Xu Jingheng, there are pros and cons, because he doesn't eat spicy food, but all the snacks on this street are spicy, so he is not very interested.

When Xu Li dragged him past the door of a barbecue fried skewer stall, he felt like vomiting when he smelled the greasy smell, so he hurriedly dragged Xu Li away again.

After the father and son ran away, a boy tiptoed out from the alley behind.He walked into this food stall, and the boss greeted him: "Xiaoyu, Lele went to the Internet cafe with Mingze to stay up all night last night, and he hasn't woken up yet, hurry up and wake him up!"

The boy named Xiao Yu didn't speak, but kept looking at the backs of Xu Jingheng and Xu Li.

The young boss frowned and said, "Tang Geyu, this can't be your enemy again, right? How did you live in such a way that you have more enemies than friends?"

Tang Geyu smiled, "Uncle, do you think I am a person who has enemies everywhere?"

The young boss is Tang Geyu's uncle, named Wu Sun.Wu Sun looked at Tang Geyu playfully, "Isn't it?"

Tang Geyu sighed: "Those two are really not..."

Wu Sun obviously didn't believe it, so he cut out, "Are you ready for school to start?"

Tang Geyu picked up the fried skewers on the iron plate, put them in his mouth and bit them, stretched his neck to look at the backs of the two who were walking away, and twitched his mouth, "It's not the first time I started school, what's the matter?" Ready."

Wu Sun cast a glance at him, "You are going to be a sophomore in high school now!"

"so what?"

Wu Sun reached out and patted the back of Tang Geyu's head, "The boss is not young, it's time to get down to business!"

Tang Geyu looked serious, "Why are you in a hurry, there is no rush to talk about Nianai, I have to take care..."

Before he finished speaking, Wu Sun slapped him on the back of the head again, "Is this what I'm talking about? I'm talking about studying! Look at your grades, you can see those ten or twenty points every time." I am refreshed and full of energy, and I am not vague about beating people!"

"Tsk..." Tang Geyu touched the back of his head, and said angrily: "The person who gave the test questions must not understand me. Didn't you see that he aimed at me? Every time I don't know how to test me! I will." He won't take the exam..."

Wu Xun said helplessly: "Then tell me what you can do?"

Tang Geyu raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little proud, "Li Liyuan is on the grass, the ninety-nine multiplication table..."

Wu Sun laughed at this kid, raised his leg and kicked Tang Geyu's calf, cursing: "I'll fuck you!"

Tang Geyu hurriedly picked up some fried skewers and slipped away, running towards the two figures in front of him.

Xu Li and his son wandered around the street, watched a movie and bought some stationery, a day passed without knowing it.

Xu Jingheng was biting a bunch of candied haws, his cheeks were bulging, like a little hamster hoarding food, his mouth was also stained with bright red candy, like lipstick.

Xu Li was a little helpless. He looked at Xu Jingheng's small mouth, which he couldn't chew, and felt funny again: "Do you have to eat a whole one at a time? Are you in such a hurry? Could it be that you starved to death in your previous life?"

Xu Jingheng said casually: "I don't remember, the quality of Mengpo soup I drank in my previous life was quite good."

Xu Li snorted, "The mouth is not big, so you can eat it in several bites."

"It's cool to eat candied haws one at a time."

It's getting dark now, and the street lamps are all lit up. Compared with the daytime, it's not the same.

Although this place is not as bright as the neon lights of S City, the hometown in the small town is full of color and charm, full of human fireworks.

"Hey... what's that?" Xu Jingheng pointed to a huge hall in front, "It's so noisy there, it looks like an ice skating rink."

Xu Li held his empty fists in front of his eyes, "It seems to be?"

Xu Jingheng squinted at him, "Will you go?"

"go with!"

After arriving at the skating rink, Xu Li didn't play. He thought that he couldn't bear it because he was too old.

Xu Jingheng changed into skate shoes and supported Xu Li, "These shoes are quite heavy..."

Xu Li helped Xu Jingheng into the arena, "Be careful, your legs are not well yet."

"Oh..." Xu Jingheng lowered his head and responded, holding on to the wall and kicking slowly, it was a bit difficult.

Tang Geyu walked into the skating rink behind them. After changing his shoes, he wanted to start skating. After glancing at Xu Jingheng, he didn't know what he thought of, and took out a black helmet from the cabinet behind him.

A staff member passed by and said hello to him: "Xiaoyu? Aren't you going to start school? Didn't the part-time job end the day before yesterday?"

Tang Geyu smiled, "That's right, bro, work is temporarily suspended, come to play today."

"Okay, what's the matter with the face injury?"

Tang Geyu put on the helmet and said in a low voice, "It's okay, I fell down."

----

Xu Jingheng supported the wall with both hands, and the skates under his feet slid hard and heavily on the real ice, uh...to be precise, he was walking.

In fact, there are skating assistants in the skating rink, but...he saw that the skating assistants were all skating very well, and the people who helped them were all skating relatively well. People, I'm too embarrassed to let others help me...

"What a shame!" Xu Jingheng laughed and cursed.

"What shame is there, your face is so handsome, I don't know how many people will snatch it if you lose it." Xu Li sat outside the fence, talking to him, "Besides, who hasn't had the first time?"

Xu Jingheng leaned on the wall, stepping on the ice skates step by step on the real ice, "Oh, it's too difficult for me..."

Xu Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, take your time."

He glanced at the people behind Xu Jingheng, lowered his voice and said, "Oh... I forgot to buy you a helmet."

Xu Jingheng turned his head, pretended to glance at Tang Geyu casually, then turned his head and whispered to Xu Li: "He is so well prepared, even if he can't skate, he won't be too embarrassed, unlike me... huh?!"

Before Xu Jingheng could finish his sentence, the sole of his foot slipped.He was still firmly supporting the wall with both hands, but his legs slid forward, and his buttocks slammed into the real ice hard.

The scene was really icy, and many people slid it around. The surface was not very smooth. This fall really hurt Xu Jingheng.

"It hurts!" Xu Jingheng yelled with puffed up face.

Tang Geyu, who was wearing a helmet behind him, was stunned.

Xu Li laughed twice, "Brother Heng, you can't do it..."

"Oh..." Xu Jingheng slowly stood up from the ground, not forgetting Rourou's buttocks.

Xu Li pointed out: "You learn to stand firm first, and then slide when you stand firm."

"Okay..." Xu Jingheng shook his head, and after standing firmly, he walked on the real ice floor with difficulty.

Xu Li said: "Just stand firmly, skating starts with standing firmly."

Xu Jingheng felt good about himself, "It's a trivial matter to stand firm, I was able to do it a few minutes ago, look at me, I can go now..."

Before taking a few steps, Xu Jingheng drifted away again, "Why do I think I can skate?"

Not knowing who gave him the confidence, he slowly let go of the fence with both hands, "Let me slide to see..."

Xu Li was still a little worried, "Be careful and slip slowly first."

"Okay, I know."

However, Xu Jingheng, who was full of confidence, just slipped two steps before falling down again...

"Ouch!"

He unfortunately fell on his ass again, it really hurt!

Xu Jingheng's face was swollen like a bun, and he wanted to touch his buttocks with both hands, but because it was in a public place and there were too many people, he had no choice but to hold back.

Tang Geyu snorted inwardly, slid to the side of Xu Jingheng who hadn't recovered yet, and silently pulled Xu Jingheng up to stabilize himself.

"Thank you..." Xu Jingheng stood up, thinking that the other party would help him up and then let go of his hand, but unexpectedly, the other party still held his hand.

He said again: "Thank you."

Xu Jingheng wanted to pull out his hand, but failed.The other party suddenly changed from holding his fingertips to holding his palm, and said in a low voice, "I'll take you."

Xu Jingheng was a little confused, "Huh?"

Seeing Xu Jingheng's blank expression, Tang Geyu's heart skipped a beat, "I fell twice within a few minutes after I came in, do you want to fall again?"

Xu Jingheng shook his head instinctively, "I don't want to..."

Tang Geyu squeezed his fingers, "Then hold on firmly."

After he finished speaking, he didn't give Xu Jingheng time to react, and directly took Xu Jingheng's hand and slid forward in small steps.

Tang Geyu skated very slowly and steadily.

Being pulled by him, Xu Jingheng's legs trembled a little at first, but gradually stabilized a lot.

He grabbed Tang Geyu's hand with both hands and wanted to say something to him, but he could only see his back.

The skating rink was very noisy, if he really wanted to say something, if he didn't shout, the other party probably wouldn't be able to hear him.

Xu Jingheng looked at the back in front of him, didn't ask who he was, and didn't ask why he took him to skate, just... looked at his back, his feet were stuck on the ice ground stiffly, and he was leading him to move forward .

Tang Geyu turned around suddenly, looked at Xu Jingheng's feet that had been sticking to the ice, and said softly: "Don't move, lift your feet up, like walking, otherwise you won't be able to learn like this."

The sound of the iron plate sliding on the real ice was too loud, and the voices of the surrounding people were joyful and noisy. Xu Jingheng didn't hear what the people in front said, and frowned, "What did you say?"

Tang Geyu increased his volume, "Raise your legs..."

"what?"

Xu Jingheng still didn't hear it, he subconsciously grabbed Tang Geyu's hand, and Tang Geyu was dragged down by him.

Xu Jingheng looked at the back of the other party who was getting closer to him, stretched his face and asked: "What did you just say? I didn't hear clearly."

Tang Geyu simply turned around and stopped, "I said..."

His turn was a bit sudden, Xu Jingheng was still being moved forward by him, at this moment, the two of them bumped into each other, one forward and the other backward.
