I became an internet celebrity by running a grocery store

Zhang Xiaobei thought that his words could persuade Fang Wen away, but he far underestimated a scholar's desire to explore the truth and perseverance.

For the sake of vines, Fang Wen really set up camp in Nanlin Village, determined to find out.He went in and out with the villagers every day, and after a few months, he not only lost weight, but also darkened a lot. At first glance, he really looked like the villagers.Even the tone of his polite speech when he first came here has completely changed, and his voice has a bit of the local tone of Nanlin Village.

But he looked very energetic. Even Fang Wen himself said that perhaps it was because Nanlin Village had good water and soil to support people.

Seeing that New Year's Day is approaching, Tao Guang's harassing calls will definitely not be late during the holidays.

"Xiaobei, I'll go find you during the holidays." Tao Guang's first words must be this every time the phone is connected.

"Okay, but three days off is probably not enough, can you ask for a few more days?"

Tao Guang snorted dissatisfiedly, "I think you just don't want me to go."

Zhang Xiaobei revealed a surprised expression, "You can see it all."

Tao Guang froze, and was speechless for a moment, "You... I know. You forget your brother when you fall in love, and you know how to hang out with Xia Songfeng every day."

"What, you're jealous."

Tao Guang was choked by him again, saying that jealousy is not really a thing, just a little bit of envy.After all, Xiao Bei is one year younger than him. Gu Kuu has not only become a small boss, but also has a good career and love.

"Take care of your family, Xia Songfeng. You post photos of the two of you in your Moments every day. If it's delicious, you'll make people die." Tao Guang gritted his teeth.

Zhang Xiaobei laughed straight at the other end, indescribably happy.

After arguing with Tao Guang for a while, Zhang Xiaobei was in a great mood, humming a little tune and arranging the shelves.Even the monotonous and boring work on weekdays has become fresh and interesting now.

Thinking about New Year's Day in a few days, time flies by quite quickly, as if in a blink of an eye.

Although he was alone this year, with Xia Songfeng around, and meeting Liu Bing and many folks in Nanlin Village, Zhang Xiaobei didn't feel very lonely.On the contrary, he has never looked forward to the New Year's Eve more than now.

He took out his mobile phone and sent Xia Songfeng a message, asking him how he spent the new year.

It's a pity that there is no playground or other entertainment places near Nanlin Village. Otherwise, the two of them could go to play together and watch the fireworks countdown. It's quite romantic when you think about it.But it doesn't matter without these, he can move out the oven and call Liu Bing's family, Aunt Wang, Grandma Li, and Liu Xue to have barbecue together.

It must be very lively, and it is no worse than going out to play.

Just as he was planning in his mind, the curtain of the commissary was lifted.As the weather had completely cooled down, the steep cold wind slyly slipped into the house through the half-opened door, so Zhang Xiaobei hung a thick cold-proof curtain on the door.

He turned his head to look at the door, suddenly froze, and the salt in his hand fell to the ground with a muffled sound.The brain exploded with a coaxing sound, and all vision and hearing failed at this moment.

"Xiao Bei."

"Mom." Zhang Xiaobei finally recovered his voice after a long while, he stood up and called out stiffly.At this time, his right foot also took half a step back, wanting to turn around and walk into the yard, but he didn't have the courage to turn around and leave in the face of his mother's sharp and angry gaze.

"Come here." Cheng Qiu's quiet voice carried a strong instruction, and no one could refuse it.This familiar feeling came back again, making Zhang Xiaobei's scalp tingle, and a chill ran down his back.

"Mom, why are you here?" Zhang Xiaobei never stepped forward, his hands were vertically down and he was gripping the shelf beside him tightly, as if this would give him more courage to confront him.

Cheng Qiu didn't speak, and walked towards him silently, the low-heeled leather shoes made a sharp sound on the tiled floor.Her face was livid, her thin eyebrows were tightly knit together, she gritted her teeth and looked around the commissary, and said, "Come with me." Then she walked around him and went straight to the yard.

Zhang Xiaobei lowered his eyelids in resignation, weeping and fearing in his heart.He slowly closed the door of the commissary, and the light was obscured a little bit, as if his world had returned to the airtight small bedroom of his childhood.

Cheng Qiu sat on the sofa with his back straight, his chest rising and falling rapidly.After waiting for a while, she saw Zhang Xiaobei push the door slowly and come in. She couldn't hold back her anger immediately, and slapped the table to get up.

"What on earth are you thinking? After your father left, you went back to your hometown without saying a word, and even opened a small shop here. Are you promising? I raised you so much just to let you go back to the village to work. These."

Zhang Xiaobei lowered his head and stood there without saying a word, letting his mother's scolding hit him in the face.

His silent performance did not make Cheng Qiu's anger lessen for a moment.On the contrary, it added fuel to the fire, making her even more furious.

"What's the matter with you now, you don't listen to what mom says, do you?"

Zhang Xiaobei's lips buzzed twice, but he didn't say anything.

Cheng Qiu looked at him like this, and felt more and more annoyed, "I've taught you the same way since you were a child, why can't you teach me how to teach you? Look at your brother, he can speak well since he was a child, how cute he is. .”

Zhang Xiaobei took a deep breath, closed his eyes in pain, and finally raised his head.

"Since I'm not as good as him, why are you looking for me again?"

He didn't know how he said those words, he just felt so distressed that he couldn't breathe.Since his parents divorced, he thought he would be able to get rid of his mother's shackles, but found that he didn't.His mother's influence on him is like a shadow in the air, like a sharp needle piercing into his bones.Even as an adult, even if you stay away, you can't get rid of it, like now

Anyone's excellence, well-behaved and sensible has become a reason for his mother to suppress him.

"What did I ask you for?" Cheng Qiu became angry when he said this, "What do you think I asked you for?" She pointed at Zhang Xiaobei and shouted loudly, "Hurry up and pack up your things and let me go home."

"I won't answer." Zhang Xiaobei was silent for a while, and mustered up the courage to speak.Although the voice is not loud, it reveals full and unshakable firmness.

He already has a new life, and Xia Songfeng who loves him very much, he doesn't want to leave, and he can't leave.Zhang Xiaobei clenched his fist secretly, not allowing himself to flinch in the slightest.

Cheng Qiu stared at him blankly, as if he didn't expect him to dare to resist his order, it was a bit of a surprise, but he quickly returned to his strong appearance just now.

"I don't care, you pack up your things and leave now. You are shameless and I want shame. You have been studying for so many years to let you do this in the country. When people ask me, what do you want me to say? Don't be ashamed. " Cheng Qiu's eyes were about to burst, and he waved Zhang Xiaobei into the room, not allowing him to have any hesitation or hesitation.

Zhang Xiaobei shook off her arm and stood there stubbornly. Although he didn't speak, his slightly arched spine also showed that he would not give in easily to others.

The two were in a stalemate when there were several knocks on the door.

"Xiao Bei."

Zhang Xiaobei recognized that it was Xia Songfeng, but he didn't want to open the door, he didn't want Xia Songfeng to see himself in such a mess.

As if seeing the concerned and humiliated expression on his face, Cheng Qiu went straight to the door and opened it regardless of Zhang Xiaobei's obstruction.What she loves most is to smash all the pride and unruliness of her son, so that he can obediently obey her.

"Xiaobei." After opening the door, Xia Songfeng noticed Zhang Xiaobei first. He had never seen him so listless and trembling. After entering through the door, he noticed the woman beside him.

Zhang Xiaobei lowered his eyelids and said in pain, "This is my mother."

After speaking, he immediately returned to the room. The air there was too depressing for him, as if someone had sucked all the oxygen out of his nose.

Xia Songfeng nodded politely to Chengqiu, then followed Xiaobei worriedly and walked in.The atmosphere in the room did not ease in the slightest because of Xia Songfeng's arrival, on the contrary, it became more dull with murder.

Cheng Qiu looked Xia Songfeng up and down, his eyes were not shy.Seeing that he is gentle and gentle, he looks extraordinary.Only then did the anger on his face fade away and he put on a smiling face, "You are Xiao Bei's friend."

Xia Songfeng glanced at Xiao Bei who was on the side and nodded. He felt that Xiao Bei really didn't look like his mother at all.The aura on Xiaobei's body was gentle without any sharp edges, but his mother showed sharp sharp corners everywhere.Whether it's raised eyebrows or a pointed, thin chin.

"What are you doing here?"

"village head."

"It's amazing, it must be a college student."

"postgraduate."

"That's great. He was not happy when I asked my family Xiaobei to take the postgraduate entrance examination. I don't know what he was thinking for a day." He said with a slanted look at him.

Xia Songfeng's face changed, and he was very dissatisfied with her belittlement of Xiaobei in what she said.But due to his status, it's hard to say anything, so he can only say euphemistically.

"Auntie, you can't say that. Everyone has different ambitions."

Cheng Qiu showed a meager expression on his face, "What is the difference in ambition? It's just that you are lazy and don't want to endure hardship. You young people are living too well. Like flowers in a greenhouse, they can't stand a little bit of suffering."

Xia Songfeng sighed, his face was full of helplessness, "Auntie, the suffering is different in each era, you can't..."

In the middle of speaking, Zhang Xiaobei pulled his sleeves.He hurriedly stopped talking and looked over puzzled, and saw Xiaobei slightly shaking his head at him.

"I can't do anything, you kid, I just thought you'd be more promising than Xiaobei."

Xia Songfeng couldn't bear it anymore at this time, he took Xiaobei's hand away, and stood up abruptly, "Auntie, I don't know what success you think of, whether it is fame, high official salary, or being able to give you a good face."

Xia Songfeng's words were too straightforward and hit the nail on the head.After hearing what he said, Cheng Qiu's face suddenly turned green, and he stood up, "What are you talking about, you have never been parents, what do you know, what is giving me a face-to-face, it's not all you who live. You kid, why are you so rude, maybe my Xiaobei was brought down by you."

"Enough." Zhang Xiaobei roared in a low voice, his fists clenched tightly, his eyelashes trembling, "Enough, don't say any more."

He looked at his mother, and for the first time, strong disgust appeared in his eyes, "What I become is my business, and it has nothing to do with others. And you can say I can, but you can't say Xia Songfeng."

He could endure his mother's constant beating and belittling of him, but only Xia Songfeng couldn't, she said she couldn't do it at all.

Xia Songfeng looked at him with slightly wet eyes.I know that Xiaobei has always been obedient and patient towards his mother, and never thought that one day he would be able to resist for him.

"Xiao Bei." Xia Songfeng didn't know what to say, and felt that there was nothing else in his heart except pity.He couldn't imagine what kind of oppressive family environment Xiao Bei had grown up in, and what he had faced since childhood.

"Mom, let's go." Zhang Xiaobei faced Cheng Qiu and rubbed his face, feeling very weak, his whole body seemed to have collapsed.

Cheng Qiu looked at him without any movement, "Xiaobei, I think you've really learned badly, and you dare not listen to me." After speaking, he raised his hand high, and with a slap, left a bright red spot on Xiaobei's cheek. palm prints.

Zhang Xiaobei's head was turned to one side by her, and he didn't show the slightest pain.He raised his head again, looked at his mother without any waves in his eyes, and continued to repeat. "Mom, let's go."

Cheng Qiu pointed at him with trembling fingers, his face was full of shock and collapse, as if he never thought that the eldest son, who had always obeyed her orders since childhood, would have a day of resistance.

"Come back with me." After speaking, she couldn't help but dragged him towards the door.

Zhang Xiaobei pulled his forearm out of her hand, "You go, I won't go."

Xia Songfeng stood aside anxiously, wanting to say something, but Xiao Bei's expression was clearly that he didn't want to interfere with him, he stomped his feet impatiently.

Cheng Qiu looked at him angrily, such a son made her a little strange and scared.What is strange is that she feels as if she has never really known him, and what is frightening is that she feels that her son is far away from her.It seemed that something had quietly deteriorated during her absence.

She didn't want to face this feeling, and she didn't like her majesty to be disintegrated, but now she had no way to control her son again, as helpless as a soldier who had lost his armor.She didn't understand what was wrong and why everything had changed after only half a year.

"Zhang Xiaobei, you really don't want to go back with me. Then I will leave you here, and I will never come to you again."

This is her last trump card, and he knows that Xiao Bei is afraid of this.Whenever he said this sentence, Xiaobei would always yield to her, just like before.Thinking of this, she began to feel a little complacent.

"I won't go back with you." Zhang Xiaobei articulated clearly, mercilessly smashing every single word on Cheng Qiu's smug smile, ruthlessly breaking her fantasy.

She stared at him in disbelief, as if she was getting to know him again.

Zhang Xiaobei looked at her without any fear, proving that he was no longer the lonely and helpless child he was when he was a child.Now he has Xia Songfeng, the canteen he likes, and the things he loves.Even if he is discarded again, he will no longer be frightened.

Cheng Qiu squeezed his fist close, and his body seemed to collapse.This was the first time she had lost in front of her son, which made her feel ashamed and sad.

"Okay." She squeezed out a sentence between her teeth, "I'll just pretend that I never had your son." After she finished speaking, she turned her head and left, a little embarrassed, and quickly left the small courtyard.

It wasn't until seeing his mother's figure disappear that Zhang Xiaofei's shoulders completely relaxed.He laughed, a very happy smile.All the weight on his body seemed to be lifted at this moment.

The former mother was extraordinarily tall and oppressive to him.But now he looked at her back as she left. His mother was only 1.6 meters tall, and her back was not wide. Why did he think she was invincible? Zhang Xiaobei felt a little ridiculous.

Xia Songfeng looked at him and grabbed his hand a little uneasy.

Zhang Xiaobei turned to look at him and laughed, "I'm fine, there's no better time than now."
