Chapter 24 Those things in those years(1/2)
The story takes place on campus, and it sounds a bit bloody.
But ignorant and innocent love often happens here.
Once you enter society, everything will be linked to the word "money".
Jiang Peng and Li Wenxue met in high school and were in the same school but in different classes.
During the military training in the first grade of high school, Li Wenxue and Jiang Peng's classes were assigned to the same company.
Became a class of brothers.
Li Wenxue is a class committee member, similar to the position of an instructor's assistant.
Responsible for roll call every day and assist the instructor in maintaining order.
Jiang Peng is a prickly person, carefree and chatty. He has just arrived at a new school and everything is new.
During military training, everyone wore the same military uniform and the same hat, but Jiang Peng did not.
He likes to wear his hat backwards because he thinks it's cool. For this reason, he was often punished by the instructor to stand in a military posture and run in circles.
Military training lasts for two weeks in total.
In the evening, under the organization of the instructor, everyone performs talents or plays some multi-player games.
Because there are so many people, the simplest interaction of an eagle catching a chicken is very effective.
One night, the instructor organized everyone to sing. He started by calling the names. Under the watch of everyone, the person who was called sang a complete song with a loudspeaker. After that, he could call the next classmate at will.
It’s a very simple game, but the first one the instructor ordered was Li Wenxue.
Maybe it's because it's more familiar.
But Li Wenxue can't sing.
Or maybe girls are thin-skinned and embarrassed to sing.
All in all, Li Wenxue was embarrassed in the center of the crowd.
Everyone was talking about it, but the instructor didn't say anything.
Because it was an event, no one wore a hat.
Under the moonlight, Li Wenxue's eyes were reddish, and she had a bun, with some broken hair scattered on both sides.
Jiang Peng's heart was suddenly touched. He was surrounded by laughter and discussion, but he couldn't hear it.
He wants to help her.
So Jiang Peng stood up and walked to the center of the field under people's gaze.
"Instructor, let me sing for her."
Amidst the whistles from the crowd, Jiang Peng and Li Wenxue looked at each other for the first time.
Although it was only for a short second, Jiang Peng saw a pair of moving eyes.
After taking the horn, Li Wenxue stood beside him.
Jiang Peng sang a song "When Love Is a Past"
Although Jiang Peng liked this song very much, he did not realize the true emotion in it at the time.
However, it is more than enough to fool classmates and instructors.
Now Jiang Peng really understands this song.
When I first heard it, I didn’t know what the music meant, but when I listened to it again, I already knew the meaning of the music.
These are all things for later.
That night, after singing the song, Jiang Peng randomly selected a classmate and went down.
This is how Jiang Peng met Li Wenxue.
Jiang Peng didn't remember much about what happened after that.
Anyway, during the summer vacation of his sophomore year in high school, Jiang Peng confessed his love to Li Wenxue after watching a videotape in the screening room.
The ending is naturally good.
How can a boy or girl agree to go to a movie theater together if they don't have a good impression of each other?
Li Wenxue agreed.
Even though we were together, we only sneaked out together on weekends to hold hands, and we didn't even dare to walk together after school.
People in that era were very simple, and holding hands was already a very close relationship.
Just like that, I reached my third year of high school.
Li Wenxue enrolled in the liberal arts class.
Jiang Peng loves houses and crows, and majored in liberal arts.
But Jiang Peng’s academic performance was not good.
Many things in liberal arts require rote memorization. Jiang Peng has a poor memory, so it is very difficult to memorize these things.
But Li Wenxue is different. Although he is not a top student, he is still at the top of the grade.
Jiang Peng was very anxious. In order to get into the same university as Li Wenxue, Jiang Peng used up all his brain cells in his senior year of high school.
But the result still failed.
Although Jiang Peng's grades have improved a lot, they are far behind Li Wenxue.
There is no way to get into the same university.
Jiang Peng was so anxious that he cried. In the end, it was Li Wenxue who came up with the idea.
Different schools in the same city.
Regardless of his parents' objections, Jiang Peng applied for another inferior college very close to Li Wenxue's school.
At this point, college time begins.
After entering college, it is much easier and more open than when I was in high school.
Jiang Peng runs to Li Wenxue's school every afternoon, eats and walks with her.
Because the two schools are so close, activities are often organized.
For example, basketball friendly matches, football friendly matches, etc.
He will participate in all competitions that go to Li Wenxue School.
His relationship with Li Wenxue gradually progressed from holding hands to exchanging first kisses.
Although there were quarrels during this period, Jiang Peng was always the one who took the initiative to admit his mistakes and was always the weak one.
Four years of college suddenly passed. After nearly seven years of long-distance love, Jiang Peng and Li Wenxue chose to get married a year after graduation.
The following year, Jiang Xiaohu came to this world.
Everything is wonderful. Although life after marriage is very tight, with the support of both parents, the family of three is living happily.
Until the arrival of 2008.
2008 was a troubled year, let alone anything else.
What shattered Jiang Peng's family was the "notorious" American financial crisis - the subprime mortgage crisis.
before the financial crisis.
China's stock market is a situation where if you invest 100 yuan this month, it will become 200 yuan next month.
National stock trading.
People in the streets and alleys are talking about which stock has hit the daily limit today and which sector has been highly profitable recently.
The stock exchange is also overcrowded every day.
under such a circumstance.
Jiang Peng's childhood friend and best friend approached him.
They went to school together until college and were best friends.
He wants to do something big.
He wants to borrow money at usurious rates.
But usury requires a guarantor.
Jiang Peng originally refused, but after playing stocks for a while, he realized that it was true.
It's simply open card gambling.
Jiang Peng couldn't help it and hid it from Li Wenxue and his family.
I became a guarantor for my hair.
He borrowed a large sum of money at usury for him.
