Reckless Youth of Delinquency

In the chaotic crowd, I fell to the ground in embarrassment. Xia Xue's mother stood aside, looked at me and shook her head helplessly, turned around and left decisively. I raised my hands to stop her, but the policeman who held me down mistook me for resisting and twisted my arms together so hard that I couldn't move at all.

"What's going on?!" A majestic voice sounded, and Li Kai strode over from the other side of the corridor.

"Squadron leader, these boys are so rebellious that they dare to fight in the public security bureau!" one of the policemen said angrily. Li Kai said directly: "Then handcuff them all and let them know what the sky is and the earth is high!" There was a "click" sound and all of us were handcuffed. Xia Xue's father and Li Mingyang's father were fine, probably because they were adults. But with so many police present, they wouldn't do anything again. As for Li Mingyang's mother, she kept talking: "This kind of little bastard who always fights should be locked up. They are all guys who have no one to teach them about life!" When she said this, Gong Ning and the others all Not happy, they started scolding her again.

I was still immersed in what Xia Xue's mother said just now, so I didn't react at all to what Li Mingyang's mother said.

"Shut up, everyone!" Li Kai cursed loudly: "Are you treating the Public Security Bureau as a vegetable market? Then I will throw you all into a cage!" This time everyone was completely quiet. When Li Kai passed by me, he accidentally glanced towards me and discovered my presence. He said with some surprise: "Wang Hao, are you here?" I smiled bitterly: "I've always been here. "

Li Kai waved his hand: "Let him go." Li Mingyang's mother yelled again: "You can't let him go, he is a gangster!" But her words had no effect, and the policeman who was holding me down quickly let me go. . Although I was free, I was still depressed and thinking about what Xia Xue’s mother had just said. Xia Xue's mother is taking Xia Xue out of this city. Where are they going? Can I see Xia Xue again in the future? So I kept my head down and didn't look at anyone at all.

Li Kai brought all of us to the interrogation room. He first asked us about the situation just now, and then gave us a few simple scare words, and then began to solve the problem of Ye Jianxiong beating Li Mingyang. Li Kai looked at Li Mingyang's injury report and said that according to some regulations, those who fight without serious consequences when they are under 18 years old should focus on education. He also asked Ye Jianxiong to compensate Li Mingyang's medical expenses, which was about two yuan. More than a thousand yuan, and it also includes nutrition fees and the like. When Li Mingyang's mother heard the result, she became furious again. She said she would appeal and take Ye Jianxiong to court. She also said that Li Kai must have received our money.

Li Kai said impatiently: "Then you go ahead and sue. I tell you, if you really want to go to court, you won't even get two thousand yuan. For the injuries your son suffered, you can get two hundred yuan." A piece would be good!" After saying that, he walked away, looking really domineering. Li Kai's words obviously frightened Li Mingyang's mother, who huffed and didn't say anything. When the little policemen saw that the shrew was finally restrained, they couldn't hide the joy on their faces. They were probably sighing that old age is still hot.

The next thing went relatively smoothly. The police issued a mediation notice and asked both parties to sign it. I gave my bank card to Gong Ning, asked him to withdraw two thousand yuan outside, and then returned and handed it to Li Mingyang's parents. After all the things were done, everyone started going back to their homes. I was about to leave with everyone, but Xia Xue's father came over and asked me to go outside to talk.

I followed Xia Xue's father out of the Public Security Bureau. After walking for a while, I came to an open-air basketball court and sat down at the highest point of the stands. "You smoke, right?" Xia Xue's father took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed one to me.

I hesitated for a moment, then took it and said, "Thank you, uncle." Xia Xue's father patted my shoulder and said, "I thought I saw you and Xia Xue's mother talking earlier?" I nodded and said, "Auntie said , I want to take Xia Xue and leave this city." Xia Xue's father sighed: "Have you finally made this decision?" I said in surprise: "Don't you know?" Xia Xue's father said: "I mentioned it before. I passed it, but I rejected it. I have always thought that your child is not bad, and Xia Xue is not that scary when she is with you. But Xia Xue’s mother doesn’t think so. She thinks it is very important to give her children a good learning environment, and she often takes The story of 'Meng's mother moved three times' comes to refute me."

I gently clenched my fists and said, "I have never disturbed Xia Xue's study, and I haven't even contacted her for a long time."

"I believe you." Xia Xue's father said, "But Xia Xue's mother doesn't believe you. Women always like to think wildly, and your stories are really too much for her to bear. As a father, I am here Under such circumstances, we must stand with her mother. Otherwise, I'm worried that Xia Xue's mother will collapse first."

My heartstrings twitched slightly, and I suddenly realized how terrible my existence was to Xia Xue's mother. Xia Xue's father continued: "Li Mingyang was beaten for the second time, which is unbearable in Xia Xue's mother's world. She thinks you are a very scary person and it is very dangerous to stay in Beiyuan City, so she wants to take Xia Xue far away Leave. This time, I’m afraid even my dissuasion will be ineffective.”

The cigarette burned in my fingers. Because I hadn't taken a puff for a long time, the cigarette butt had condensed into a long length.

"Where will we go?" I asked.

"Xinxiang City." Xia Xue's father said, "That's Xia Xue's grandmother's house. It's a few hundred kilometers away from us. It's a quiet and peaceful small city with camphor trees everywhere. It's very suitable for Xia Xue to study hard. , prepare for the college entrance examination.”

I smiled, with a hint of bitterness: "It's pretty good." What can I say, what else can I say?

"Haha, don't be sad." Xia Xue's father suddenly laughed, patted me on the shoulder and said, "If you are a man, you can go to the same university as Xia Xue, and then you can catch her again, use your Have the strength to speak to Xia Xue’s mother!”

I raised my head and stared blankly at Xia Xue's father. The cigarette butt on my finger burned. It was so hot that I screamed and hurriedly threw the cigarette butt away. Then I said, "Uncle...you...take good care of me?"

"Of course." Xia Xue's father said with a smile: "And let me tell you a secret, it's not that Xia Xue's mother doesn't like you anymore, it's just that you scare her now. She often said to me: 'Wang Hao What should I do if this child becomes like this? Is it because of the family? Can we help in any way?' I refuted her every time: 'Please save it, I have never seen such a sensible child as Wang Hao. You can't just look at many things on the surface.' Looking at it from another perspective, Xia Xue's mother actually still cares about you. After all, you are also the son-in-law she once valued very much, haha..." It seems to be to appease you. My mood, Xia Xue’s father kept smiling.

But to be honest, these words really worked and greatly relieved my heart. Even though she knew that Xia Xue was leaving here soon, she didn't seem as sad as at first. All of this is of course due to Xia Xue's father.

"But," I said; "Don't you and Auntie both want to promise Xia Xue to Li Mingyang?"

"Hahaha." Xia Xue's father laughed again: "To be honest with you, don't be angry. The adults on both sides of us started planning their marriage very early. We really feel that they are a match made in heaven. Li Mingyang This child has excellent academic performance, is well-behaved and sensible since he was a child, and is very popular with Xia Xue’s mother and I. But later, as the children on both sides grew up, Xia Xue’s mother and I discovered that Li Mingyang didn’t seem to be that good. , one of the most typical characteristics is being too hypocritical. I remember one time during the Chinese New Year, when we were guests at his home, Xia Xue’s mother gave Li Mingyang lucky money, and Li Mingyang happily said thank you to us. But when he turned around, I went to his bedroom to get it Something, I heard him talking to his friends on the phone, saying that Xia Xue’s mother was too stingy, and only gave her a little lucky money and so on..."

Recalling these past events, Xia Xue's father shook his head gently: "As time went on, there were more and more such things. We found that he was always polite in front of others, but very scheming behind others. Slowly, We stopped talking about this marriage, but their family was still very keen on it. Later, you appeared, and Xia Xue’s mother and I were very happy, because your child has a special appetite for us, and you really have something to say. I really like it…”

"Of course." Xia Xue's father continued: "Children, you still have to focus on study, so we especially hope that you will go to the same university, so that you can fall in love, work, get married, and have children naturally. Having a home of my own in this small city, and coming to visit us from time to time, is enough happiness."

There is a circle of old locust trees surrounding the basketball court, and the leaves rustle when the wind blows.

"You will know what happened next." Xia Xue's father's voice became deeper: "First you were expelled from Chenggao. At that time, Xia Xue's mother still had hope for you. Later, you were expelled from Beiqi and made trouble again. It was only when such a big thing happened that Xia Xue's mother became a little desperate for you. In this case, she had no choice but to move out of Li Mingyang. She felt that although this child was hypocritical, he was generally a good child and it would be fine if he could help the two of them. , at least it will make you give up. Of course I was against it at first, but Xia Xue’s mother was too stubborn, so I had to acquiesce. But I can guarantee—"

Xia Xue's father put his big hand on my shoulder: "I'm still very optimistic about you. I hope you can make a gorgeous change one day. If it doesn't work in one year, it will be two years. If it doesn't work in two years, it will be three years. Anyway, you are still young. , spend a lot of time working hard, and use practical actions to shut up Xia Xue’s mother.”

Xia Xue's father said seriously: "Wang Hao, come on!"
