I, Brother Qiang, and Aiping are classmates in junior high school, and in 1995, we were in the first year of junior high school in the county No. 1 middle school, that is, from that time on, a series of things happened around me, but they were worth pondering.
I am a rural child, but since I was a child, I have always been able to maintain the first grade in my grades. After graduating from elementary school, he was admitted to the key class of the county with the tenth grade in his grade.
At that time, there was a saying in our county: when you enter the key class of No. 1 Middle School, you will step into the threshold of the university with one foot. And junior high school and high school are almost all within reach.
This also means that although we are still in junior high school, we have actually touched the emblem of the university and even the key university.
The No. 1 middle school in our county is quite famous in several nearby counties, and there are even some well-known people in the city who will try their best to send their children to key classes.
As a result, although the key class of our class is still glorious in the eyes of outsiders, in our own feelings, it is actually a mixed reputation.
Judging from the student number, No. 1 to No. 40 are indeed the leaders in the entrance exam, but those related households after No. 40 can really only be said to be good and bad.
It's not that all the related households are poor students. In the mid-term exam of the first semester, there were also some related households whose grades were not so bad, and some even entered the top of the grade.
But in general, most of the fifteen classmates from the 40th to the 55th are people with unsatisfactory grades, and Brother Qiang and Aiping are among the "leaders".
Brother Qiang's student number is ranked 54, and his ability to enter our key class is completely the result of his father's ability to make money.
Brother Qiang's father went south to Guangdong as early as the 80s, and later became a contractor on the wharf, managing three wharves in Shenzhen and managing nearly 1,000 people. According to the 15% management fee that was popular at the time, it was indeed called a daily profit.
Anyway, around 95 years, word of mouth in our county, Brother Qiang's father has been worth hundreds of millions of dollars and has become the richest man in our county.
The so-called return to his hometown, Brother Qiang's father is developed, and he is very supportive of the cause of his hometown, and when the leaders of the county go to Guangdong to attract investment, he is basically received by him.
Brother Qiang is his father's only child, and he has perfectly inherited his father's strengths, and it is said that since kindergarten, he has never had a record of passing exams.
Fortunately, with his father's money ability, after graduating from elementary school, his father said hello to the county and donated 300,000 yuan to the school, and Brother Qiang became a member of our class.
And Aiping's student number is No. 41, so he lives next to us "good students", his grades are a little better than Brother Qiang, and he even became our class president. There is no other reason, because his father is the director of our municipal education bureau.
Aiping perfectly inherited the style of the "second generation of officials", coupled with the squad leader's hat on her head, whether it is a speech or an activity, she has the momentum of a superior.
It is precisely because of Aiping's "official spirit" that although she is the squad leader, her popularity in the class is not very good.
In addition to the official spirit, the most eye-catching thing about Aiping is that her personality is too high-flying and domineering, and her classmates are okay, he can still take care of the face of some of his classmates.
But he is not so polite to his classmates in other classes, he will add his fists and feet if he doesn't speculate in three sentences, and even mix with the young people outside the society, and he can't convince people with his "strength", so he will use his strength to fight hard, and several classmates have suffered from him.
As the "seedling" of the class, I was elected as a member of the study committee, and it was inevitable that I would have some communication with Aiping, the class leader, and I could get by on face.
After all, a rural child like me has known to be cautious since he was a child, and he knows that he is not small, so naturally he will not easily touch his moldy head.
The first semester passed, Aiping's grades still did not improve, and I don't know if it was his father who said something to the school or what was going on, but as soon as the second semester started, the teacher changed his seat and became my tablemate.
This is not to blame the teacher, Aiping's character, most of the classmates do not get along well with him, and I am a member of the study committee. If you change to me, even if your grades don't improve, you shouldn't make any trouble.
For a week or two in a row, Aiping and I were all right, and Brother Qiang, who was sitting behind me, joked with me every once in a while, looking harmonious.
Brother Qiang is worthy of being the son of the richest man, and the money in his hand is like flowing water. I remember that at that time, my family gave me 100 yuan for living expenses, including all the food, drink, and Lazar, and even the fare to go home from vacation, and the days were quite tight.
Anyway, the first thing I do every time I receive living expenses is to go to the school office to buy food tickets, and the few things left are pocket money, which is about to buy a pack of spicy noodles every week, and eat a popsicle on a hot day.
But Brother Qiang is different, one day it was almost evening self-study, the classroom was so hot that only two ceiling fans were turning weakly, I don't know who said it, if you can drink a bottle of Jianlibao, it is the happiest thing in the world.
Brother Qiang didn't say anything at the time, just went out to the toilet, and when we officially went to the evening self-study, someone came in with five boxes of Jianlibao, and each classmate gave a bottle, and the rest was given to Brother Qiang.
This is the first time I've drunk chilled Jianlibao, and I've only eaten white sugar popsicles before except for soda.
I remember that at that time, a bottle of Jianlibao should be a bottle of eight, one bottle per person in the class, and it cost more than 100 yuan accidentally, but Brother Qiang just smiled and didn't say a word.
Sitting in front of Brother Qiang, I was shocked beyond measure.
But Brother Qiang's move, other classmates thanked him for his generosity, but he stole the limelight from Aiping, not only did he not drink Jianlibao on the table, but he even threw the drink at the door and slammed it on the classroom door, which scared everyone to drink a lot quieter.
Aiping stood up and said to everyone: We are here to read, not to enjoy, a bottle of drink will buy you? Sweat more now, and you can drink whatever you want in the future.
It's not wrong to say this, but even I, who is at the same table, think it's always so weird when it comes out of Aiping's mouth.
I secretly glanced at Brother Qiang behind me, only to see that the smile on his face suddenly froze, but then it was the same expression again, and he even raised the drink bottle in his hand to me to make a toast.
I was immediately overwhelmed by Brother Qiang's demeanor, but I was afraid of Aiping around me, and I couldn't help but laugh and drink Jianlibao, trying my best to remember the first delicious taste in my life.
Aiping seems to be stimulated, but it's not good to get angry at me who didn't say half a word, after all, I am also a member of the study committee, and I am also the object of the school's key training.
But since then, the relationship between Aiping and me has become a bit complicated, and I used to be relatively peaceful, and I could even say a few words, and then I gradually stopped talking to me.
Several times I took the initiative to ask for everything to "stammer" him, but Aihei just squinted at me, and snorted in a voice that couldn't be smaller.
The delicate balance between me and Aiping was quickly broken, it was an English test, as the best subject, I was naturally familiar with the road and completed it quickly. Ai Ping kept biting the tip of her pen next to me and winked at me several times, meaning that I was asked to lift the paper and let him copy the answers.
Before that, there was a tacit understanding between us, you can copy my answers, but I never participated or blocked, neither took the initiative to cooperate with you, nor did I deliberately not let you read it.
Therefore, Aiping's eyes were directly ignored by me, and as soon as the results of the exam came out, he became the bottom of the class as the class president.
Fortunately, the English teacher also knew where he came from, and his words were very tactful, but he still didn't take him lightly. Probably because we can't rely on our parents for the rest of our lives, we have to work our own.
I could clearly see that Aiping's face was red and white, but she had nowhere to vent, so she could only glare at me viciously.
A few days later, a small incident happened between me and Aiping, but it became the darkest memory of my entire study career.
Aiping has a habit of secretly smoking, and I occasionally see him with cigarettes in his drawer. But although the school is much looser in its management of their related households, it also has a premise, that is, it cannot bring bad things. Smoking is such a bad thing, that is absolutely forbidden.
It was also a coincidence that the character teacher suddenly came to our grade to check, in fact, he rarely came to our key class to see before, but that day I don't know what was going on, and suddenly called our students out to stand in the corridor, and the teachers checked the students' drawers.
Aiping should have known about the incident at the east window, so she stuffed the cigarette case into my drawer, and everything was done without me.
So, not surprisingly, I, a good student, was called to the school office, and I couldn't explain the source of the cigarette case. In the end, I had no choice, so I could only "speculate" with the teacher whether the box of cigarettes belonged to Aiping.
Aiping was soon called in, of course she wouldn't admit it at first, but the teacher also knew my family conditions, and she refuted him in one sentence: Do you think he is the one who can afford to buy the King of Hibiscus?
This time, even the son of the director of the Municipal Education Bureau, Aiping was not spared, although he was not ordered to drop out of school, but he also checked the size several times, and finally even alarmed his father and gave him a meal of yellow eel noodles at school.
The first thing Aiping did when she returned to the classroom was to pick up a dictionary on the table and smash it directly on my head, which immediately opened a hole in my head, and blood immediately burst out.
Aiping is also a very bachelor, pointed at me and scolded loudly: What I hate the most is the person who makes a small report, because of your whistleblowing, my cigarette was discovered by the teacher, do you know how much it is?
I covered my head and began to cry, ashamed to say it, at that time I was not thinking about what I would be beaten, but thinking about the money he said: how much is a pack of Furong King, can I afford it?
Aiping scolded while picking up a book and slapping me in the face, fortunately it was also a book, although it was painful, but it would not add any more wounds.
Not long after, the classmates returned to the classroom one after another, and Brother Qiang was almost the last to come in, as soon as he came in, he saw Aiping yelling at me, and still said to Aiping in that hanging-like tone: The big class leader is so angry, what did Xiaoguan provoke you?
In the past year, the two of them have almost a tacit understanding that the well water does not interfere with the river water, the tall and fat Brother Qiang, Aiping is almost half the volume of him, plus the aura of the richest man in the family, Aiping glared at Brother Qiang, and said viciously: He took my Furong King away from the teacher.
Brother Qiang paused for a moment, and soon pleaded with a smile: Isn't it just a pack of cigarettes, everyone is a classmate, don't take it to heart, look at my face, okay?
Aiping said disdainfully: I just smoked one of a pack of Hibiscus King, you let me forget it?
Brother Qiang was also atmospheric, and said casually: Isn't it just a pack of cigarettes, I will compensate you for Xiaoguan. casually took out a hundred-dollar bill from his pocket and put it on Aiping's desk, and then dragged me up, saying that he was going to the school doctor's office to wrap it up.
Aiping should have been shocked by Brother Qiang's generosity, and she didn't say anything for a while.
I felt relieved, followed Brother Qiang out, and when I walked to the door of the classroom, I heard Aiping yelling behind me: This thing is definitely not played, but for the sake of Qiangzi, I will temporarily let you go today.
The relaxation I had just felt in my heart disappeared immediately, and I felt like I couldn't even walk to the school doctor's office.
Brother Qiang persuaded me with kind words, and even when he passed by the door of other classes, he called inside, and two male classmates came out of it, one Brother Qiang, it seems that it was his follower.
Brother Qiang took two strange male classmates and sent me to the school infirmary to bandage me, and when he came back, he comforted me not to worry, the second generation of officials can't do anything to you.
At noon the next day, after lunch, I wanted to go back to the classroom and take a nap on my stomach. But when I walked to the staircase on the first floor, I met Aiping, who smiled weirdly at me and said: Didn't you tell you that yesterday's events were not finished, it was really a coincidence, and he raised his hand and pulled it towards me.
The hero doesn't suffer the loss in front of him, I subconsciously ran upstairs, and ran to the classroom of our class in one breath, so I breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that when I got to the classroom, no matter how arrogant Aiping was, it couldn't be too much.
But I still underestimated Aiping's rage.
He panted and chased after me, and immediately picked up a stool and threw himself at me. I moved left and right in the classroom, and Aiping couldn't catch up with me for a while, so she had to pick up the stool next to me and throw it at me.
Not long after, the students returned to the classroom one after another, and saw that the classroom was in a mess, some were coaxing, and some were discussing whether to call the teacher.
Brother Qiang shouted in his mouth, jumped directly on the desk, stepped in front of me in two steps, squatted down and asked me what was going on, I told the reason with a cry, Aiping was still scolding viciously.
Brother Qiang stood up and jumped in front of Aiping in two clicks, and he, who was tall and fat, directly pressed Aiping with the format of Mount Tai.
Ai Ping screamed, and then there was a low scolding from the ground. Brother Qiang raised his fist and slammed it at him, saying as he thrashed:
I lost money for your face yesterday, and today you will be shameless, and if you are shameless, I will give you a little more acute, so that you can know how high the sky is and how thick it is.
The beating didn't last long before the teachers arrived and all three of us were called to the principal's office.
In the end, I, the client, was quickly released, but Brother Qiang and Aiping's parents were called to school.
Seeing his son being beaten, Aiping's father made a request to the school: no compensation, just expelling the other party.
originally thought that Brother Qiang should go.
Brother Qiang's father is not a vegetarian, and he has had a lot of connections in the county over the years. Tell the principal: My child hit someone, I can pay money and apologize, but I still have to go to school, and I have to stay in the same class.
In the first week, Brother Qiang did not come to class.
In the second week, Aiping didn't come either.
In the third week, the two of them appeared in the classroom together, and our class was back to its original level.
Although Aiping and Brother Qiang no longer care about each other, they never seem to have any unpleasantness.
After graduating from junior high school, I went on to high school and was later admitted to a university in Shanghai.
Brother Qiang did not continue to stay in his hometown after graduating from junior high school, and it is said that he went to Shenzhen to study in high school. Thanks to him for standing up for me, I have always kept his QQ, and I can still talk to him for a few years at the beginning, and later, he gradually stopped talking to me.
Aiping also went back to the city in the third year of junior high school, and what happened to her, I don't know.
After graduating from university, I stayed in Shanghai to work, and once I came to Guangdong on a business trip, and found that the customer turned out to be Brother Qiang. He did not inherit his father's career as a "contract foreman", and he opened several factories in Guangzhou, but he was happy.
Speaking of the events of the year, Brother Qiang still told me in that breezy tone: There has been no Aiping for a long time......#精品长文创作季#
