Before meeting Wang Yijing, Su Li looked down upon girls who cried easily. She thought, nothing had happened yet, so why were they crying? No matter what happened, crying is useless.
Later, when I saw Wang Yajing crying, I didn’t have this feeling anymore, but she herself didn’t cry easily, and would never cry because of grievance or sadness, but at this moment she couldn’t help it.
She told herself that crying was useless, but she couldn't help crying;
She thought that since they didn't love her, she didn't love them either, but she still felt sad.
She cried and didn't know how long it had been. Suddenly, she felt someone beside her. She looked up and saw Ren Hong.
Ren Hong held a tissue, looking embarrassed.
Su Li was stunned for a moment, and her face turned red: "Why are you here?"
"I, I'm just taking a walk." Ren Hong also spoke haltingly.
Su Li looked at her, Ren Hong opened her mouth, and then opened her mouth again: “I will come to train…”
She spoke weakly, and her face turned red after she finished speaking.
Su Li burst out laughing. Ren Hong was a little annoyed, but also a little reluctant. She pushed the tissue in front of her and asked, "Do you want one?"
Su Li took it, wiped her face roughly, and blew her nose. Ren Hong gave her another one, and she took it without hesitation, but did not use it again.
Su Li was sitting on the ground. The soil in the playground was frozen hard, and there was not much loose soil. Apart from being a little cold on her butt, it was completely fine to sit on. Ren Hong thought about it and sat down as well.
The two sat for a while, each of them wanted to say something, but didn't know how to start.
They all know each other.
This is kind of bullshit, for a team. But now there are dozens of people in the Tiezhong women's team. Su Li is the main force among the main players, and Ren Hong is the rookie among the rookies. Under normal circumstances, even if the two feel that each other is familiar, they may not know each other.
But they all have a good relationship with Wang Yijing, so they know each other, but they are just acquaintances, far from being familiar with each other. It is a bit awkward for them to sit here at this moment.
After an unknown amount of time, Su Li asked, "Are you really here for training?"
Ren Hong was startled: "...That's what I thought."
Su Li glanced at her, and she didn't dare to look at Su Li: "Then I felt it was a little too cold."
Sully smiled again.
Ren Hong was embarrassed: "Just laugh at me, why are you crying?"
As soon as she said this, she felt a little regretful. Su Li was crying so sadly just now that she had originally decided not to ask. She immediately said, "Well, well, I just said it casually. You can cry as much as you want. I always like to cry, and Wang Yijing also likes to cry..."
"…Why are you crying?"
"Huh?"
"Didn't you say you cry often?"
"That, that was in the past..."
"Then why were you crying?"
Ren Hong was startled, and after thinking for a while, she slowly said, "It seems that there is no reason, just because of sadness...some are not just sad...anyway, they just cry. Oh, isn't it natural for girls to cry?"
"Why do you want to talk about girls?"
Ren Hong was startled again. Su Li said, "Just cry if you want to. Why do you have to differentiate between girls and boys?"
"Isn't that what everyone says?" Ren Hong was a little dazed.
"Yes, but why? Why can't boys cry, but girls don't mind? Why should men support the family, but girls don't mind? Why should boys stand out, but girls don't mind? In the past, men had the advantage because they were stronger, but what about now? There are still fields to be cultivated, but aren't they all cultivated with machines? Then what is the difference between men and women?"
She kept saying this and that, and Ren Hong was completely dumbfounded.
These were questions she had never thought about. She was an only child, and although her family conditions were average, she grew up like a little princess - otherwise she would not have been able to play well with Wang Yijing earlier.
It's not true to say that she has never felt unfair, but it's not too strong either, because her parents love her and give in to her anyway.
But now that Su Li had thrown out a series of questions, she was thinking about what to do with all this, and at the same time she couldn't help but ask, yes, why?
She thought about it, but she couldn't think of anything. Just when she wanted to ask, Su Li suddenly said, "You said you came here to practice, right?"
“Ah? Ah!”
"Let's practice!"
Ren Hong opened her mouth wide - she was not here to practice. She came here because she was bored at home and didn't want to explain to her relatives why she wanted to play football!
If Ren Hong had played football in the past, her family would have definitely questioned her - why would a girl play football!
However, with the fame of Wang Yajing, Zhang Sheng and even Su Li, this situation did not happen. Instead, the question was - what situation are you facing now? Can I join the national team?
What? She has only been playing for a short time. It would be hard for her to become a main player in the school team, let alone the national team, right?
But it’s hard to say, because Wang Yijing didn’t play for too long, and the most important thing is that Wang Yijing still has a good relationship with her!
Her mother would then say, "It should be soon, her good friend Wang Yijing..."
It is true that Wang Yijing is her good friend, but Wang Yijing is Wang Yijing, and she is her!
Wang Yijing can kick it out, but she...she may not! Well, it’s definitely impossible to kick it out!
But her mother still liked to talk about Wang Yijing, which made her feel annoyed, so she ran away.
She still had a few friends, but after she went to Tiezhong and started playing football, she had less contact with them and now she doesn’t really want to look for them. With no direction, I came to Tiezhong.
Actually, Tiezhong was on holiday, but some senior students had not left yet, and she was on the football team, so the guard asked her a few questions and let her in.
She didn't even want to practice!
But she had said so earlier, and it was not easy to change her words now. Su Li said again: "Don't let them look down on you!"
Ren Hong was shocked, and Su Li gritted her teeth: “No, I’m sorry for myself!”
…
Wang Yijing certainly didn't know about Su Li's situation, but she was also encouraging someone now.
Wu Xinxin.
After Zheng Weifeng said that he would give everyone New Year's money, everyone had a lot of fun for a while. However, when they changed their clothes and got in the car, Coach Zheng's face fell again.
"You won the game, and today is Chinese New Year. To be honest, I shouldn't spoil the fun. But one thing is for another, winning needs to be celebrated. I also want to point out the things you did not do well. Think about how the Myanmar team scored that goal!"
…
How did you get in?
There was no fast break, the defense was not timely, and the cooperation was not in place... It seemed that everyone was responsible, so the originally excited crowd died down again, until they returned to the hotel, Zheng Weifeng really gave each of them New Year's money.
It’s not ten dollars, and certainly not one dollar, but one hundred.
Put it in a red envelope, one for each person. Everyone took it with a smile, but when they saw the denomination of the money, everyone was shocked. Wang Yijing and Che Yitong were not short of money, but they were also a little surprised to see the hundred yuan.
Wang Yajing’s monthly subsidy is only 300 yuan now - originally 200 yuan, and later Tiezhong increased it by 100 yuan.
Che Yitong didn't care about subsidies, but before she came, her brother gave her some ideological education, saying that a hundred yuan is very useful, and that many families may only spend that much on food in a month. He also told her that even though she is on the national team, she actually doesn't have much money. This point was not so obvious in the base, but Miss Che realized it when she arrived in Thailand - she had never stayed in the hotel they were staying in before. Not to mention their family trip, even if Yongcheng came out to play football, they would not stay in such a hotel.
And now, they send out a hundred at a time?
There are twenty-three people in the team!
Others were even more shocked. For example, Xu Aidi had never touched anything so big in her life!
"Why, don't you want to?"
"Coach Zheng, this..." Yang Mo stuttered, wondering if Zheng Weifeng paid for this out of his own pocket. Zheng Weifeng grabbed Wang Yijing's red envelope and said, "By the way, yours is one piece."
“No!” Wang Yijing quickly stuffed it into her pocket, and everyone around her laughed.
Zheng Weifeng also smiled: "Okay, let's not talk about football today. Go back and wash up and come down to eat. After that, prepare the New Year's Eve dinner for me!"
Everyone was dumbfounded again. Zheng Weifeng glared at them and said, “Just eat it!”
Everyone lowered their heads and said nothing more.
Time was running out, so Wang Yajing didn't rush into Zhang Sheng's room. She returned to the room with Wu Xinxin and started digging outside. Although the hotel conditions are average, their current treatment is similar to that at the base.
Not to mention the hotel's own cleaning service, their clothes were also put into the laundry basket after being changed every day and collected by the accompanying staff to be washed together. Daily wear does not necessarily need to be changed every day, but the jerseys must be washed immediately after playing football, so they have to prepare the jerseys every time after playing football. This is all procedure. Wang Yijing did this as soon as she came back. When she finished, she found that Wu Xinxin didn't move.
"What's wrong?" Wang Yijing walked over and found Wu Xinxin staring at the red envelope in a daze.
Wu Xinxin raised her head and then lowered it again.
"What happened?"
"Wang Yijing..."
"ah?"
"Am I useless?"
Wang Yijing was stunned. Just as she was wondering what was going on, Wu Xinxin said, "I don't have the ability or good judgment, but... I have a little luck, right?"
"Why are you not okay?"
"I can't do it no matter what!" Wu Xinxin pursed her lips, her eyes reddened. "I saved all the penalties for the Myanmar team... No, I didn't save them, I just scored them by luck. But the goal for the Myanmar team... I attacked, but I shouldn't have attacked. If I had stood still, maybe I could have scored it by luck... Right?"
Wang Yijing scratched his head, and then scratched his head again: "I don't know."
Wu Xinxin almost cried.
"But you have always been lucky."
Wu Xinxin really cried.
"Hey, why are you crying when you're lucky? Do you want bad luck?"
Wu Xinxin was filled with grief and indignation but could not vent it. She looked at Wang Yijing with a look full of resentment. Wang Yijing scratched his head again: "Well, well, let's be honest. Your skills are not as good as Damen's, right?"
"Da Men" is their nickname for the main goalkeeper Ma Qing.
Wu Xinxin nodded.
"Compared to Huang Xuan, she's still a little bit behind, right?"
Huang Xuan is the goalkeeper whose skills are better than Wu Xinxin, but he was not selected in the end.
Wu Xinxin's face was stiff, but she still nodded.
"But you are really lucky, so why are you crying? Don't cry, don't cry. I once heard that luck is also a part of strength. It's not easy to rely on luck. I want to rely on it, but it's not reliable."
"I, I don't want to rely solely on luck." Wu Xinxin said very dejectedly. In the past, everyone said that she was lucky. Although she said that it was not the case, she still felt a little proud in her heart.
Who doesn’t want to be lucky?
But this time, she had different ideas. She certainly didn't hope that she would have bad luck, but... she hoped that she would have more than just luck.
"Then you work hard."
Wu Xinxin was stunned. Wang Yijing looked at her and said as a matter of course: "You have worked hard and become stronger. Naturally, it is not just luck."
…
"Then it's no use if you don't work hard and just cry."
Wu Xinxin pursed her lips, and then pursed her lips again: "...You don't even comfort me."
Wang Yijing laughed and went up to hug her: "That's enough!"
"What a comfort!"
"Comfort her hard!" Wang Yijing said, increasing her strength. Wu Xinxin shouted her name, and they laughed together.
…
On that day, the team members first had lunch prepared by the hotel, and then were rushed to the meeting room by Zheng Weifeng to work.
People in the north make bread dumplings, and people in the south make rice cakes and glutinous rice balls. Don’t you know how? I won’t learn from you!
Wang Yijing and Che Yitong were the clumsiest among them. They tried their best, but the dumplings still didn't take shape. Their heads and faces were covered with white flour. They looked at each other, shrank their bodies, and tried to minimize their presence.
What we ate for dinner was the result of everyone’s labor. Some of the glutinous rice balls were rotten, some of the rice cakes were crooked, and some of the dumplings had broken skins, but everyone enjoyed the meal very much.
At twelve o'clock, Zheng Weifeng even let them drink some fruit wine: "Another year has passed, and everyone has grown a year older. I wish you all can achieve satisfactory results in the new year!"
"Champion! Champion! Champion!"
Everyone shouted and raised their glasses together.
