Chapter 2 The Family

Wang Dachun came out of the school gate, followed by two of his close friends who helped him carry his luggage.

Outside the school gate, his brother-in-law was waiting for him in his second-hand Poussin.

These two good buddies, one named Zhang Wei and the other named Xu Zhuang, were a little reluctant to say goodbye. After all, they had stayed together for two or three years and were in the same dormitory. Wang Dachun may not play anymore after leaving.

The ball is over.

Zhang Wei said,

"Brother Wang, don't be discouraged. After all, after practicing for so many years, you can't play football. At your height, you can play basketball."

Xu Zhuang interrupted and said,

"Do you think playing basketball is so easy? They are not as professional as us playing football. They have been practicing since they were young. I have never heard of a saying, "Every line is like a mountain."

Zhang Wei said.

"Why don't I just comfort Brother Chun."

Wang Dachun said with a bitter smile,

"I might actually go play basketball."

Both guys smiled and didn't take it seriously.

"Okay, I won't tell you anymore. My brother-in-law is waiting for me over there. Come on, brothers. I hope you can join a professional team in the future."

After Wang Dachun got into his brother-in-law's car, he sighed deeply!

The brother-in-law looked at him and said half-jokingly:

""What, you can't bear to part with me? In fact, you don't have to. It doesn't matter if you are a goalkeeper and you are taller. I remember that there wasn't a star goalkeeper in the world.

You seem to be 2.08 meters tall, right? You're only 2.1 meters tall, so there shouldn't be much difference. And didn't your coach say you're very talented? There's no need to withdraw from school."

Wang Dachun said helplessly:

"Brother-in-law, what if I grow taller?"

Zhang Penggang thought about it too.

"It's hard to tell whether your baby is still growing, but if it is, it's hard to say. How about we go to a hospital in a big city and get a good check-up."

Wang Dachun said,

"No, it shouldn't grow any longer."

"Okay, let's go home first."

Zhang Penggang started the car and drove home.



Wang Dachun's home is not very far from his school. Although his training school is in the city and their home is in the county, it is not far from the city. It can be reached in more than two hours by car.

Brother-in-law Zhang Penggang works in the county education bureau. Wang Dachun was able to enter a professional training school through his brother-in-law's relationship.

My brother-in-law, Zhang Penggang, is 30 years old this year and is well-known in the county. His fame is like that of a child from another family.

His parents passed away early, and it was his grandparents who raised him. He has been very good at studying since he was a child, and was admitted to a national key university with excellent results.

After graduation, he did not stay in a big city to work, but returned to the county to take care of his elderly grandparents. Through his own efforts, he was admitted to the local civil service.

Later, his grandparents passed away one after another, which was a big blow to him. Later, he was introduced to his sister Wang Daxue, and the two came together.

Perhaps because his parents passed away early when he was young, although his grandparents took good care of him, he lacked the care of his parents after all. Therefore, he was very kind and filial to his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

No matter what happens at home, my brother-in-law is always on call. He treats his parents as his biological parents. Relatives and friends once joked to Wang Dachun's father, "You married a daughter, but you married a daughter."

Come back with a son."

He and his sister have been married for four years, and the couple is living a harmonious life. They now have a three-year-old son, Tangtang.

My elder sister, Wang Daxue, is 28 years old and works as a nurse in a county hospital. She has a relatively capable personality. In their small family, the two of them play the role of loving father and strict mother.

His father, Wang Wanwan, is 50 years old this year. He used to work in the county's state-owned fertilizer factory. However, the fertilizer plant failed due to poor management and closed down more than ten years ago. Wang Wanwan retired early and opened a small store by himself near the community.

My mother, Liu Meili, and my father, who is one year younger, work as a salesperson in a county department store.

In addition to the eldest sister Wang Daxue, Wang Dachun has an older brother Wang Dachun who is 25 years old and is still studying in graduate school.

There is a younger sister below, Wang Xiaoxiao, who is a freshman in high school this year and will be a sophomore in high school in the second half of the year. She changed the name Wang Xiaoxiao herself. According to the naming routine of the Wang family, she can make up her previous name by herself.

On the east side of the county town, Wang Dachun's home lives in an old family building that used to be a fertilizer factory. It is a small three-bedroom apartment with an area of ​​more than 80 square meters.

In the past, a family of six lived in more than 80 square meters. To be honest, it was quite crowded.

Since the eldest sister got married, Wang Dadong went to college again, so the house didn't seem so crowded.

Today, in addition to Wang Dadong, who is at the university, Wang Xiaoxiao, who is in school, has not come back. The whole family is waiting for Wang Dachun at home.

Along the way, my brother-in-law was afraid that Wang Dachun would feel uncomfortable because he could no longer play football, so he kept trying to enlighten Wang Dachun. He knew how much his brother-in-law loved football.

In fact, Wang Dachun had already thought clearly in his mind that some things were unavoidable and had to be done, and he was no longer as sad as he was at the beginning.

When the car arrived at the community, the two of them carried their luggage and walked home. They met familiar neighbors and friends along the way, and they all said hello to each other, because Wang Dachun had grown too much in recent times and had never been back home.

The people around him looked at him a little differently. After all, most of them had watched him grow up. They all felt strange when they suddenly saw Wang Dachun grow so tall.

After greeting the neighbors and returning home, he put away his things. When Wang Dachun came back, his father said nothing. His mother and sister had already prepared the meals, and asked Wang Dachun and his brother-in-law to wash up and come over to eat first.

The family ate in silence. My sister and mother kept bringing vegetables to Wang Dachun, asking him to eat more. After all, from the mother's point of view, her child had to keep up with his sudden growth in nutrition.

Wang Dachun's figure is very well-proportioned. Although he is very tall, he does not feel thin. If there is no one standing next to Wang Dachun as a reference, his figure looks very standard.

After eating, the family sat together, and Wang Baiwan said,

"Dachun, don't take it to heart. We can't play football and there are still many things to do. You are still young and you still have time to learn things."

Wang Wanwan is a person with a relatively cheerful personality and does not want to put too much pressure on his son. It is precisely because of his personality that several children have been influenced by him. Neighbors and friends around him think that these children of the Wang family

The tutors are very good.

My mother also said beside me,

"Yes, actually there is no benefit to being an athlete. I see those athletes are often injured. You are more likely to get injured now that you are so tall. It's okay if we don't play football. We'll be fine."

My mother has always felt that athletes are prone to injuries. Coupled with Wang Dachun's naive character, every time she called Wang Dachun, her mother would ask if the training was good, if the food was good, and if there were any injuries. She also asked the other children.

Not so nagging.

Wang Wanwan turned aside from Liu Meili and said,
Chapter completed!
