Chapter 6 Once
Liu Feng was interested in football since he was a child. Thinking of being a hobby, his family let him learn football from childhood. Since then, he has shown a different talent than children of the same age.
When he was seven years old, his parents went to Brazil to develop and settled in Santos. My father first learned skills at a local barbecue restaurant. After he finished his studies, he opened a restaurant combining Chinese barbecue and Brazilian BBQ, which is quite famous in the local area.
Liu Feng started school in a local school. When he was eight years old, Liu Feng, who played football with a group of teenage children and played them around, was discovered by Santos scouts. The father, who was originally a senior fan, was overjoyed after the scout came to the door and directly decided on Liu Feng's joining the youth training of Santos Club.
Later, after entering the club, Liu Feng shined, and batches of children came and left in the club, but Liu Feng always maintained a main and core position in his corresponding age group.
I thought I would continue to stay in the club until I debuted in the first team and became a formal professional football player, but everything was disrupted that day.
15-year-old Liu Feng happily returned to his hotel with his medal. Unexpectedly, this time he did not have the delicious table prepared by his father. He was just a mom who cried and a dad who kept sighing with a diagnosis.
Cancer, advanced stage...
The family who had transferred the hotel, packed their luggage, and stayed outside for eight years chose to return to China and went to the best hospital in Kyoto. They spent eight years savings. For countless nights, Liu Feng was standing by his father who was tortured by the pain of cancer and kept moaning. The future seemed to be just dark.
In a year, the money was gone and the people were gone.
When his father died, he held Liu Feng's hand, smiled and stroked the medals that Liu Feng had won in the past few years, saying, "Son, you'd better go back and play football. When you win a few more championships, your father will be so happy that he can't stop in the sky."
Later, when she returned to her hometown with her mother, her mother helped her in her grandfather's Chinese medicine shop. Liu Feng relied on her uncle's relationship to find the people from the Golden Lion Club. With her outstanding past in Santos, Liu Feng, who had not trained for a year, finally entered this club that was well-known in China.
Unfortunately, there are many coaches like Sun Shaobo in China. A year after joining the club, if it weren't for thinking about the hardships of his mother and the difficulties of his uncle when he was asking for help, Liu Feng, who showed his strength in Brazil, might have turned against Sun Shaobo long ago.
This year, Liu Feng only focused on scoring goals in all the games he had the opportunity to play. Faced with Sun Shaobo's insults and cold bench treatment, he mostly chose not to listen or distinguish, and silently resisted with actions.
In the end, I still couldn't stand it...
Liu Feng, who was sitting in the car home, shook his head with a wry smile. He just wanted to play football well, but at the Golden Lion, he only felt that he was trapped in a swamp and could not move forward. In Brazil, he could not accept the ridiculous rules and "friendship" in China at all.
Nanyang, Liu Feng's hometown, is also the hometown of the medical saint Zhang Zhongjing. Liu Feng's grandfather is a famous traditional Chinese medicine doctor in Nanyang City. As the old man in the largest traditional Chinese medicine clinic in the local Zhongjingtang, his grandfather is famous all over the country in traditional Chinese medicine skills, and there are many patients who come from other places to seek medical treatment.
When my father was ill, the combination of Chinese and Western medical methods given by my grandfather allowed the father, who was predicted to have only three months of life, to last for a year.
Since Liu Feng started playing football, his grandfather gave him various prepared Chinese medicines every month, some applied externally, some used to soak his body, and some need to be drunk. These things made Liu Feng rarely missed the game due to injury.
Even if he is occasionally injured by his opponent on the court, as long as he uses his grandfather's medicine and cooperates with the team doctor's treatment, Liu Feng will always get better quickly. Santos's team doctor has asked Liu Feng more than once if he can ask his grandfather to be a consultant in the team.
"I don't know what my mom will say to me."
Subconsciously waved his hand, and Liu Feng, who was already standing in front of the house, interrupted his memories. Now his mother lives with her grandparents, and the mother who lost her husband has changed a lot in the past two years. Gone are the mother who is as willful as a princess in Liu Feng's impression of being gone.
"Squeak."
Just as he was about to knock on the door, a beautiful woman carrying a vegetable basket was about to go out to buy groceries, opened the door. The woman was Liu Feng's mother, Ni Hong.
"Son! Why are you back?"
Seeing his son who was supposed to be training in the team appear at the door of his house, Ni Hong was very surprised: "You go into the house first, mom goes to buy some vegetables, your grandparents are playing mahjong outside for a while and then come back. The food they are not very good in training, right? I finally came back today, mom makes a meal for you!"
"Ah... Mom." Looking at his mother who waved her hand and asked him to enter the house, then went downstairs to buy vegetables, Liu Feng touched his nose and walked into the house without any worries.
After my father passed away, I lived with my mother. Later, because I was going to Zheng City for training, my grandparents who felt sorry for my daughter simply moved here. I could live in a house with three bedrooms and two living rooms. I spent a lot of time with my grandparents on weekdays, and my mother really had a lot of smiles.
When he walked into his room, Liu Feng clewed it up in a box where old items were placed. After a while, a storage box with the AC Milan team logo was found. Yes, Liu's father and Liu Feng are both die-hard fans of AC Milan.
Holding the box and sitting at the table in front of the bed, Liu Feng gently opened it, and two tickets to the 2005 Istanbul Champions League final were revealed: AC Milan vs. Liverpool.
These were two tickets that were not used in the end. My father and I watched this game in the hospital ward. The two of us went to bed at 3:0 at the halftime. Unexpectedly, we would have such a big reversal when we woke up the next day.
Thinking of his father who had a gloomy face all day after getting up the next day, Liu Feng couldn't help but smile. His father was very serious in everything, but when he was in football, he acted like a child, and even his mother couldn't do anything to him.
"Dad, this year's Champions League final is still playing for Liverpool. Milan is very stable this year and will definitely take revenge!" Liu Feng murmured to the photo of the family of three on the table. In the photo, his father was wearing Milan's jersey holding himself who had just finished playing the ball.
"Son! Come out and help."
After a while, Liu Feng heard the sound of his mother coming back, put down the things in his hand and went to help. After cleaning up the mother and the two of them, they quickly made a table of dishes. As soon as the dishes were finished, the grandparents who were playing numb outside returned home.
Grandpa is an energetic old man who walks wildly and speaks and does things neatly. Grandma is an old naughty boy. When he was a child, he liked to play with his parents home, and every time he followed his parents home, his grandma liked to play with him the most.
"Xiaofeng is back, let grandma see if she is thin!"
"Why are you back? Shouldn't you train with the team?"
Liu Feng couldn't resist the grandmother's head rubbing hard, so he quickly invited his grandparents to the dining table.
"Let's have a meal first! Let's tell you about it after dinner!"
"OK!"
This time, Liu Feng took the initiative to control his diet like he was in a club, but he had a happy meal with his family. After the meal, Liu Feng told his family his plans very seriously.
"Go to Europe? Are you Feng'er?" My mother couldn't help but worry when she heard that Liu Feng wanted to go to Europe by herself.
"Well, mom, in Brazil, I have no problem with Portuguese and English in the past few years. The domestic football environment is really not suitable for my development. If you want to play football well, only going abroad is the only way out."
"Europe...how are you going to contact those clubs?"
Grandpa considered the reality. Liu Feng came back to the Golden Lions. He roughly understood the process of signing people at the club. Liu Feng suddenly said that he was going to Europe and there must be some specific arrangements.
Liu Feng stood up and returned to the house and took out a card from the Milan storage box: "This is the contact information that Uncle Joao gave me when I left Brazil. Uncle Joao is now acting as an agent for several Brazilian players in Italy, and I plan to contact him."
Joao, the scout who recommended Liu Feng to the Santos club back then, had a very good relationship with Liu's father. After Liu Feng's family left Brazil, Joao also went to Europe to become an agent.
Grandpa nodded, then looked at Ni Hong, obviously whether he agreed or not depends on his daughter.
"Son, do you have to go to Europe? Isn't it okay to play football anywhere? You are at the Golden Lion. My mother misses you and can still see you. You are going so far in Europe, so we meet too much every year..." Ni Hong sighed. After her husband passed away, the one she cared about the most was this precious son.
"Mom, this time, I really have to go..." Liu Feng scratched his head and looked at his mother firmly: "The current domestic football environment is too chaotic, I really can't play it."
Looking at Liu Feng's eyes, Ni Hong was stunned for a moment. She seemed to see the appearance of the poor boy who had nothing to propose to him. He was so determined at that time that he would have everything he told him, but he had to marry him.
"Puff..."
Ni Hong smiled and walked back to the house to take out a card and an mp3: "The card is the 100,000 yuan left to you by your father. He had long expected that you would not stay in China. The mp3 is what he left to you. Go, son, and make a good start. Your devil dad dreams of seeing you win the championship!"
