The next day, Mr. Dong personally found Coach Bian and complained, "Coach, you said this kid has talent and asked me to pay more attention to him. But you see him like this, and I am just scratching my head and can't do anything."

Coach Bian knew Sanwang's temperament very well. He handed a form of "X" to Teacher Dong and said with a smile, "Teacher Dong, give him half an hour of one-on-one training before dinner. If he draws more than three "X", his salary and food coupons will be deducted."

Teacher Dong: "This is not good. It is not easy for that child to earn a salary."

"Who said it was really buttoned? He is more afraid of you pretending to be buttoned than anything else."

Teacher Dong was skeptical, but after trying it, hey, it really worked!

Therefore, before lunch, Sanwang had an extra half hour of one-on-one English teaching. Teacher Dong was not serious about teaching English, and the results were not outstanding. He drew an X on the students' salary and food coupons.

As a result, Sanwang's Chinese English improved by leaps and bounds. He could communicate with others without using Chinese pronunciation annotations. As for whether the communication was correct or not, or whether it was like playing the lute to a cow, that didn't matter. Anyway, his confidence in communication was amazing!

Teacher Dong used some political clichés as a wedge to drive into Sanwang's mind, letting him nag from time to time, so that even if he was eccentric and talkative, he would not make mistakes.

For example, President M's diplomatic strategies of "one line" and "a large area", slogans such as "friendship first, competition second", etc., should pay attention to the unity of diplomatic relations in addition to the competition. Athletes are not only going to the competition, but also bear the responsibility of building good neighborliness and friendship with Asian countries.

The training days were busy and fulfilling, and every day was almost the same, so time passed very quickly. In a blink of an eye, it was August 19th. I stopped training, packed my luggage, prepared my documents, and flew to Tehran early the next morning.

The entire country, from top to bottom, attached great importance to this trip to Iran. In order to reverse the world's rigid perception of China and change the impression of cadres' four-pocket Zhongshan suits, soldiers' grass-green military uniforms, farmers' black coarse cloth, and workers' labor cloth, they specially hired someone to design athletes' uniforms.

Each person was given two sets of entrance suits with a pair of black leather shoes, and two sets of sports suits with Warrior sports shoes.

Sanwang doesn’t have much stuff, just a few clothes and simple toiletries, so a bag is enough.

Li Zheng saw him putting an empty bag into his bag and smiled at him from the side.

Li Zheng is 15 years old and is a member of the diving team. He is very strong. He and Sanwang admire each other and have a very good relationship.

"Sanwang, why are you packing an empty bag?"

Sanwang: "Let me see what I can buy. I heard they don't need tickets to buy things." Anyway, the bags were given out, two per person, so why wouldn't he want them? It would be so convenient to take them home for his mother, hehe.

At this time, Tao Lili came over with a pair of high heels and reminded Sanwang: "Keep all your documents."

Sanwang said proudly, "The coach has it." He looked up and saw the high heels in her hand, and immediately wanted to buy some for his mother, "Are these leather shoes expensive?"

Tao Lili: "It was distributed, I don't know how much money it was, you got some too, but you didn't go to claim it"

Sanwang's eyes lit up, "Can I get the high heels?"

Tao Lili and Li Zheng glared at him together, "Sanwang, you are a man, why are you wearing high heels!"

Sanwang: "Well, I have a mother and a sister. I'll buy it for them."

The two of them looked at him speechlessly. No matter what the kid gave out, he would always mutter: We don’t have it at home. If you take it back to my mother, she will definitely be happy.

Sanwang didn't care, he ran to the mail room to ask. The leaders, coaches, staff and even other athletes in the compound all knew about his problem.

"I don't want men's leather shoes. I'll just change to a pair of women's shoes. My mother's feet are not big, probably about the same size as mine." He lifted his big feet out of his slippers and took a look. "Do you think they are about the same size?"

The “you” next to it: …

Sanwang thought that he didn’t want too many so as not to break the rules, so he just wanted one pair so that both his mother and sister could wear them.

Everyone looked at him with a smile, especially the female athletes. Someone joked with him, "We don't know how tall your mother is."

Sanwang looked around and pointed at a slim girl, "She's about this tall."

The girl blushed and smiled, "I wear size 22.5."

"Oh, your feet are so small?" someone laughed.

The female employee in charge of distributing shoes laughed and said, "Then Han Wangmin's mother must wear a size 23.5." The bones of women who have given birth will become wider, and since they are working women, they might even need a size 24.

Zhang Wei, a tall basketball player, said with a smile, "Sanwang, buy a big one. You still need to wear socks. If it's too big, you won't suffer a loss, and if it's too small, it won't count."

Everyone laughed again.

Sanwang thought it was right and said, "Then I'll buy a pair and the money will be deducted from my next month's salary." This month's pair has already been sent home.

The staff member said, "Why are you in such a hurry? If there's any left after we divide the food, we'll give it to you. We'll send it to you when you get back from Tehran. There's no rush."

Sanwang nodded, "That's fine, my mother doesn't need this month anyway."

He ran back to the dormitory and continued packing. He stuffed the photo into a recent letter from home, put it together with the stone into his schoolbag, and took out the sweater he was reluctant to wear and put it on.

"My mother is so considerate. It's just the right size for me."

Li Zheng: "Aren't you hot?" He glanced at the big sun outside the window.

Sanwang: "It's cool in the morning and evening..."

After putting it on, he looked at his reflection in the window and felt that he had become much more handsome.

Li Zheng: "Is your sweater too small? It seems a bit tight on the shoulders."

Sanwang: "That's nothing, you're just dazzled."

He now eats well, exercises a lot, and grows fast. Especially with daily training, his shoulders have become stronger, and he has broad shoulders, a narrow waist, long arms and long legs. Although Lin Lan calculated the margin when knitting the sweater and made the shoulders wider, she hadn't seen him for a while and couldn't be sure, so Sanwang's shoulders were a little tight, but he wouldn't admit it.

After admiring himself in front of the window for a long time, Sanwang took off his sweater again.

Li Zheng looked speechless, "It's hot."

Sanwang: "Where is it hot? It's not hot at all. I'm afraid of dripping oil on my food."

Lunch was still in the cafeteria. The leaders of the General Administration of Sports came to encourage the athletes, asking them to put aside all their burdens and focus on training and competition. After the leaders encouraged everyone, the athletes started to eat.

The banquet was very sumptuous, with fish and meat, and people could eat as much as they wanted.

After Sanwang had eaten and drunk his fill, he went to find Coach Bian and asked, "Coach, can I make a phone call now?"

He has been thinking about it all the time.

Coach Bian smiled and said, "You go, follow Director Ge."

Sanwang excitedly went to the communication room, and after getting permission, he went to the communication operator to ask for a number. At that time, it was all manually transferred to the exchange. After dialing here, the operator in the middle helped to transfer the call, and then it would reach the target phone. After waiting for a while, the phone was picked up and a female voice came, "Hello, this is Shanshui Commune, who are you?"

Sanwang had learned his lesson after making two phone calls. He knew that the person on the other end of the line might be someone else, and he would not yell for his mother the moment he picked up the phone again.

He said he was Han Wangmin and was looking for Lin Lan.

Wang Fang said excitedly: "Hello, Little Flying Fish, I like you very much. I heard that you are going to the Asian Games..."

Sanwang: "...Uh, I'm leaving tonight. I want to call my mom."

"Wait a minute, come right up!"

Wang Fang didn't hang up the phone and shouted outside: "Manager Lin, Lin Lan, our son's phone number is——"

The sound was so powerful that it could probably be heard five miles away.

Sanwang on the other end of the phone: “…………”

Soon, Lin Lan's voice came, "I'm coming, don't make my little brother wait anxiously."

Because Coach Bian had called before and said that he would not contact Sanwang during the period, and would let Sanwang call her when he was about to leave. A few days ago, she received a call from Chu Yunfeng and learned that Sanwang was fine and would leave for Tehran early on the 21st, so she did not go anywhere in the past two days and waited for him at the unit.

Sanwang listened to the rustling sound of the phone being changed hands, and he shouted happily, "Mom!"

Lin Lan's eyes suddenly became moist, and she quickly pressed them with her fingers, saying happily: "Oh, little brother is going abroad, it's really amazing, no one in our village or our commune has ever gone abroad. You are really amazing!"

Sanwang felt very proud when he heard his mother say this. His original resistance and uneasiness disappeared and were replaced by full joy.

"Mom, let's go by plane. It's much faster than the train. We can get on the plane and whoosh into the sky and fly to a foreign country." His voice was full of joy, but he could not hide a trace of worry.

Lin Lan sensitively caught his emotions and chuckled, "Are you a little scared? Don't be afraid. I heard that when you take a plane, your ears will feel a little uncomfortable when it takes off. You can eat something and chew something in your mouth."

"Mom, you are so amazing. You understand all this." Sanwang really admired his mother, as if she knew everything he was worried about.

"Mom, you're talking nonsense. Brother San, you must be careful when you go abroad and don't go out on your own."

"Mom, don't worry about me. You know me. I'm very capable. We've learned English so we can talk to them. I'll write down our country, swimming team coach and where we live on a piece of paper and put it in my pocket. I won't lose it."

Lin Lan reminded: "You have to write down the Persian language as well."

"Mom, what's Persian? We are in Yilang. We are speaking Yilang."

Lin Lan: …………

"Okay, you can say whatever you want, just have someone write it down and take it with you."

"Mom, I'll see if they have anything interesting and buy it for you. I heard from them that people in foreign countries don't use food coupons or cloth coupons, so they can buy things freely."

Lin Lan was worried about him: "Then send all the money back to mom, what will you buy?"

"Isn't there still money for the future? I'll advance the money for next month and the month after next." Sanwang laughed, feeling like he had endless things to say, "Mom, what do you want? How about I save money to buy you a TV? Aren't we going to move to the county town? We can watch TV if we have electricity."

As soon as they received the news of the housing allocation, the children wrote a letter to Sanwang to tell him.

Lin Lan: "Son, don't think about it for now. It won't be too late to think about it after the Asian Games."

Sanwang: "Okay, I'll think about it when we get back." He talked to Lin Lan for a few words, and couldn't help but say, "Mom, I think I should buy you a Snow Flower fan. It's very cool in the summer."

Without waiting for Lin Lan to say anything, he continued, "Oh, right. I saw that our leader's house has an ice box, what is it... Yes, a freezer, it's a freezer, put meat, fish and vegetables in it in the summer, it's not bad. Mom, wait for me to come back and buy it for you. If I win the award, I can ask for a quota to buy it for you."

Lin Lan felt sour, warm and proud in her heart. "Okay, Mom loves you very much. Don't feel pressured in the competition. As for refrigerator fans, as long as our family has money and the supply and marketing cooperative has them, your dad can buy them. Don't feel pressured in the competition. It doesn't matter whether you win a prize or not. The key is to see other people's level. As they say, there are always people better than you."

"Mom, I remember this. I'm wearing the sweater you knitted for me. It's so pretty. My roommates are jealous of it, but I can't bear to let them wear it, hehe."

Lin Lan knew that he was expressing his joy at the sweater she had knitted for him.

As long as no one reminds him, Sanwang can chatter on and on with Lin Lan, and he will never run out of things to say, as if he has compressed countless words. And Lin Lan also likes to listen to him. When they were at home, Sanwang was the one who talked the most, and he could talk as much as the whole family.

"Mom, I packed up my old sportswear and asked someone to send it home for me. You can give it to Xiaowang, Xiaoxin and Haonan. They are very sturdy and you don't need to pay for them with printed coupons."

"Okay, this is a national athlete's uniform. You are the only one in our county. My son is really amazing. The whole family is proud of you."

At this time, the operator began to make gestures to Sanwang to indicate that it was almost time to end the call. She usually kept the call time at most three or four minutes when others called, but this time Sanwang took almost ten minutes, so she had no choice but to let him hang up.

Sanwang indicated that he knew. He asked his family and asked Lin Lan to write a letter to tell him how big her feet were.

Lin Lan: "Son, don't buy it for me..."

"Mom, don't forget! The coach is calling me, I'm hanging up." Sanwang didn't want to say goodbye to his mother, he wiped away his tears and hurried away.

Although Lin Lan had a lot to say, she didn't say a word. It was enough for her to listen to her son's voice and she could say her own words in the letter.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Lan felt a little disappointed and stood by the counter.

Wang Fang watched from the side and said with a smile: "Secretary Lin, Sanwang is really great. Oh, if I had a son like him, I would be so happy. Look at you, you have five smart, handsome and capable children. You are so lucky."

Lin Lan laughed and said angrily, "You said you haven't gotten married yet, but you have a son."

After leaving the communications room, Lin Lan went back to her office to pack up and prepare to go home.

She wanted to go to the slaughterhouse to buy some meat and go home to make dumplings for the children. Sanwang was going abroad, so the family wanted to celebrate.

For her, it is a good thing for her son to go abroad and gain experience, and whether he wins an award is secondary.

Everyone else from the Propaganda Office had gone to the countryside, and she was the only one left in the office. She left a note for Minister Zhuang and then left.

Lin Lan rode her bicycle to buy a pound and a half of pork tenderloin, a free pig tail, and three ribs.

As soon as she got home, she heard the sound of an engine outside. Han Qingsong had returned.

He was carrying some fruits and a piece of bacon.

Lin Lan asked happily: "Third brother, where are you from?"

Han Qingsong: "Just back from the farm." He helped Lin Lan hang the bacon on the pot rack.

Lin Lan quickly kneaded the dough and let it rise, then went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables.

There are abundant vegetables in the vegetable garden. Cabbage, tender gourd, lentils, etc. can all be used to make dumplings, so she wanted to make more kinds of fillings.

The filling for buns is easier to make than that for dumplings. Except for lentils and radishes which need to be blanched in boiling water, the others can be chopped slightly, added with salt, and a bowl of diced meat mixed with a large spoonful of lard. You can also add some shrimp skin to the gourd and cabbage filling to make it more nutritious.

She prepared all the fillings, but the dough had not yet risen, so she put some fire under the pot to heat it up, then turned off the fire and put the dough in the pot to rise.

Han Qingsong found some boards and wood outside and threw them in the yard. They had been drying in the sun for a year or two and were perfect for making household items.

There was no furniture in the house in the county, so he could make a desk and two chairs first. He would collect the wood at home, buy some more, and then use a mule to transport it to the county town to find a carpenter group to help him make it.

Now the county supply and marketing cooperatives have also started to sell ready-made furniture, new style, veneer board, bright patterns, looks sleek and particularly eye-catching, many young people in the city like it. Unfortunately, there are very few county goods, and most of them are bought by insiders.

Lin Lan doesn't like it. How can the original boards be better to use? Even if they are just ordinary locust, birch, elm or pine, they are still logs, right?

Han Qingsong tidied up and helped her make dumplings.

At this time, Mai Sui and Er Wang led Xiao Wang to carry back two baskets of tender corn. The children began their first autumn vacation and went home to help with the autumn harvest. Da Wang went to the army as soon as he had a vacation, and Mai Sui and Er Wang led Xiao Wang to help the production team.

Xiaowang ran in and said, "Mom, the captain gave us two baskets of corn for you to cook and eat." This is spring corn planted in spring, and it matures at about the same time as sorghum. Summer corn will not be harvested until the eighth month of the lunar calendar.

Lin Lan stood up and looked around. "Everything is fine." She turned to Han Qingsong and said, "Third brother, the house in the county has a pot, but has it been lit yet?"

Han Qingsong: "Luo Haicheng and his men burned it twice."

When the commune's special envoys went to the county for official business, sometimes there were too many people to stay in the dormitory, so they would stay in the children's room and help heat the kang and clean the room.

Lin Lan: "Third brother, bring a basket of corn tomorrow and have someone cook it there so that everyone in the office can taste it."

They don't farm, so many people can't eat the fresh corn. After all, the villagers pay public grain in the form of sun-dried grain, and no one would pay tender corn.

Han Qingsong agreed. He never invited people to dinner, but he cooked corn when Lin Lan asked him to. When he put it in the office, he said with a straight face, "Mr. Lin invited you to eat corn." Everyone knew that it was Lin Lan's good intention and they all accepted it. Lin Lan had given pumpkins, gourds and other vegetables from her own garden before. As they got to know each other, some people asked Han Qingsong to bring things to Lin Lan.

Seeing Han Qingsong's agreement, Lin Lan told the children about Sanwang's phone call, "He's going to board the plane early tomorrow morning."

The children were very excited when they heard about taking a plane.

They have heard the sound of airplanes in the sky, and occasionally see the flashing signal lights of high-altitude airplanes at night. Children like to call them airships. In addition, there are the airplanes seen in pictures, but they are pictures, not real.

"Little San Ge is really amazing. He even got on a plane!" Mai Sui looked longingly. "When can I get on a plane? Will I get sick from flying?"

Lin Lan smiled and said, "When you grow up, your parents will take you there to sit."

Xiao Wang was worried: "Where are we going on the plane? The plane is so fast, we can go to a foreign country in no time. Can we come back?"

Lin Lan laughed and teased him, "It's okay, let's just let the plane fly around our county."

Erwang also laughed: "This requires a helicopter. I'm afraid our Civil Aviation Administration's planes won't work."

The more they chatted, the more excited they became, and finally they even started talking about whether they could fly a plane to the moon for a stroll.

Xiaowang: "Mom, if I have a plane in the future, I will take you out to play every day. Let's go to Beijing today, go surfing tomorrow, go to Hainan the day after tomorrow, and then go again in two days..." He looked at Erwang and Mai Sui and couldn't think of any more places to go.

Because at this time you can't go to foreign countries casually. It's not suitable to go to the United States, Japan, or the Soviet Union.

Mai Sui smiled and said, "It's okay. Maybe when you have a plane, you can go anywhere."

Xiao Wang: "Okay, let's go to the moon and take a look."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Han Qingsong ate the big delicious buns silently. Although he did not take the initiative to participate in the topic, he liked to listen, especially when she talked to the children with joy and bright eyes.

Lin Lan: "The food is getting cold, let's eat it quickly."

Dinner consisted of big steamed buns with various pickled vegetables, and a bowl of smashed cucumber and cold tomatoes.

The big buns made at home are plump, and although the surface is not white enough, they are affordable. The filling is full when you bite it, and the hot and fragrant soup flows into your mouth, which is extremely delicious.

Lin Lan packed three kinds of fillings, and Xiaowang ate one each and his stomach became so full that he couldn't eat any more.

Mai Sui and Lin Lan had small appetites, but they wanted to try the whole thing, so they teamed up and shared the meal in half.

Erwang was almost full after eating four.

Xiaowang: "Mom, if my brother was at home, he would have to eat ten big buns!"

Erwang: "If I can't eat ten, I can eat nine."

Mai Sui: "Is this true? How many did our father eat?"

Han Qingsong: "Seven." He never eats too much for dinner.

Xiao Wang: "Wow, my big brother eats more than dad?"

Lin Lan: "Brother is growing taller, but dad is no longer growing taller."

Xiao Wang gestured and said, "It has to be a little longer, otherwise our house won't be high enough."

"Hahaha……"

Han Qingsong glanced at Lin Lan and said, "I'm not busy now, I can take a few days off." The work of each commune is on track, and he can arrange his own rest time.

Lin Lan was delighted when she heard this and said, "Really, kids, Dad is off for two days, let's go out and play."

In the past, during the busy farming season, Lin Lan would definitely come back for the autumn harvest unless she was tied up.

Today she actually took the initiative to say that she wanted to go out and play, and Erwang knew what she meant as soon as she heard it.

He smiled and said, "Let's go to Gem Mountain!"

Lin Lan: Oh yeah! With a son as considerate as me, there's no need to say anything nonsense.

Lin Lan was concerned about the Blue Flame Mountain. If there was anyone who knew more about it than Han Qingsong, it was Erwang.

Mai Sui and Xiao Wang also agreed. Mai Sui: "If we go, can we see Big Brother?"

Lin Lan looked at Han Qingsong, and the children looked at their father.

Han Qingsong: "Well...it depends on the situation."

Dad didn't refuse directly, he just said there is a chance. Haha, Mai Sui, Er Wang and Xiao Wang must want to watch their big brother train.

It's settled.

The child was so excited that he begged Lin Lan to stay in the county at night and take the train from the county tomorrow.

As long as the children's requests were not unreasonable, Lin Lan would agree.

Lin Lan took the children to pack up, took a small basket of charcoal, a broken iron grate, and prepared some food to take with them for a picnic.

Of course, we can’t forget the radio.

At this time, the voice of a female announcer came from the radio, "The athletes who are about to go to the Asian Games in Iran are already in high spirits and ready to go at any time... Tomorrow morning they will board the plane to Tehran..."

At around three o'clock in the morning, a whistle was heard in the courtyard of the Capital Sports General Administration.

"Athletes, assemble! Assemble!"

Sanwang jumped off the bed in a hurry, put on his clothes in a few seconds, stuffed his sweater into his bag, and put on the Huili sneakers that were distributed to him.

Li Zheng was also very quick. He dressed quickly and everyone took their bags.

Those who couldn't attend the event hugged and wished them well, "Li Zheng, Sanwang, you must do your best!"

The two saluted and said, "Don't worry, we must do our best!"

Sanwang: "Then you say friendship comes first and competition comes second, what should we do?"

Li Zheng smiled and said, "Of course if you lose, you should say friendship comes first and competition comes second. If you win, you should say thank you."

Sanwang laughed, "Okay."

Zhang Wei, a big man from the basketball team, and Tao Lili, a water polo player, also came to call them, "Let's go, let's take the bus first."

It was still dark at this time, and the stars seemed brighter in the deep night sky, dark and overwhelming, as if you could reach out and pick them.

Sanwang took a breath of the fresh air and felt refreshed. He followed the main force to the playground to gather. The coaches called the roll, counted the items, etc., in an orderly manner, and then called the names one by one to get on the bus, leaving no one behind.

Li Zheng also teased Sanwang: "Did you bring your sweater?" Sanwang: "Of course." "Why don't you put it on?"

Sanwang: "What if I get it dirty? Wear it when I'm almost off the plane."

Under the protection of the armed police, the athletes rode the bus to the airport, got off the bus, and checked their belongings before boarding the plane. The mermaids boarded the plane and sat in groups according to their events, with swimming, diving, water polo and other water events sitting together.

Sanwang sat with Li Zheng, Tao Lili and others, all of whom were familiar team members.

As soon as they sat down, Sanwang asked, "Are you hungry? Do you have anything to eat?"

Li Zheng: "I'm a little hungry. I'll provide dinner later."

Sanwang heard that he would not have to worry about food if it was provided. Anyway, he had not spent a penny since he was released. With food, accommodation and meals provided, he felt very comfortable.

But he was a little nervous. It was his first time on a plane, so he was still nervous. He looked at other people. Did they seem to be not afraid? He soon found that many people were nervous. If they were not afraid, they were just pretending to be calm, haha.

Most people on the plane were naturally afraid. After all, it was their first time on a plane, so how could they not be nervous?

The radio broadcast repeatedly mentioned the precautions for taking an airplane, and the flight attendants appeared in the aisle to explain. Sanwang was just nervous at first, but now he was even more nervous. Especially when they talked about oxygen masks and life jackets, Sanwang's face changed. He quickly lowered his head to look for a life jacket and thought about taking it out and putting it on.

Li Zheng next to him: ...

Sanwang: "Li Zheng, hurry up and take out what we have here and put it on, before it's too late."

Li Zheng: "Sanwang, don't be nervous, it's just in case. You won't fall."

Sanwang: “No?”

Li Zheng smiled and said, "Absolutely not. Believe me."

His smile was gentle and confident. Sanwang believed him and sat back.

Li Zheng: "Take a deep breath and imagine yourself competing."

Sanwang: "Competition? I'm not nervous about the competition."

Li Zheng: "Yes, that's it. Imagine you are in a swimming competition, one circle after another like a donkey pulling a millstone. If you count incorrectly, you don't know how many circles you have completed. Just keep taking deep breaths and keep swimming until I tell you to stop."

He fastened Sanwang's seat belt and watched as Sanwang puffed up his cheeks and took deep breaths like a fish. He paused for a long time without breathing, which made Li Zheng feel suffocated. When he felt like he was going to be suffocated to death, Sanwang "huff~~"

Li Zheng: You are really good at holding your breath.

At this time, the radio began to remind: "Comrades, the plane is about to take off..."

Sanwang was not nervous at first, but now he was so nervous that he couldn't breathe, especially when he heard that they were going to go to a certain height of several meters. He didn't even hear clearly, and just got nervous.

Seeing that his face was red from holding it in, Li Zheng quickly reached out to tickle him.

Sanwang: “Hahahaha…”

At this moment, the plane started to move, slowly running, faster and faster, faster and faster...

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Sanwang laughed loudly. The athletes nearby didn't know what he was laughing at, but they thought it was funny, so they laughed along. With this laugh, their tense mood suddenly relaxed, and they were no longer afraid.

With a "whoosh" sound, the plane took off from the ground and soared into the sky.

When a plane soars into the sky, the pressure difference between inside and outside the cabin is too great, causing tinnitus and ear swelling, making many people feel uncomfortable.

Sanwang: “Hahaha…” I don’t feel anything at all.

The others were amused by Sanwang's laughter, and they didn't know what was going on. After they finished laughing, they looked at each other and asked, "What are you laughing at?" I don't know either, and then continued to laugh "Hahaha..."

The plane had entered a stable period, and Li Zheng calmly withdrew his hand.

Sanwang then realized that the plane had taken off. "What happened? When did it take off into the sky? Oh, it's so high. I was scared to death."

He said he was scared to death, but his eyes were wide open. He went to the window and looked out with Li Zheng, "Let me see what kind of gods are there in the sky."

Li Zheng: "There are no gods, but there are clouds."

Sanwang: "Wow~ I'm in heaven! I...ah, why can't I see anything?" The glass window reflected light, and he could only see the two people's big faces reflected in the window.

Li Zheng: "I can see the signal lights on the plane and the stars."

Sanwang clasped his hands and stared hard, and after a while he adjusted himself, he saw the red and white signal lights flashing in the dark night sky. He tried to look up and could see the sparkling sky, "Wow, the stars in the sky are especially bright."

Li Zheng: "You'd better stay awake for a while. It will definitely look better when the sun rises."

Sanwang thought so too, but after experiencing the tension, he felt even hungrier.

After finally making it to around 5:30 in the morning, flight attendants distributed meals to the athletes who had just woken up and were hungry, including bread, sausage, apples and milk.

Don’t use milk for Sanwang, use water instead.

Li Zheng: "Sanwang, you have to drink milk."

Since joining the national team, every athlete has been able to drink half a pound of milk every day.

I don't want to drink Sanwang! It tastes weird!

At first, Coach Bian and his teammates tried to persuade him to drink it, saying that drinking it would make his body stronger, his bones stronger, and he would swim faster.

But Sanwang just couldn't swallow it because he thought the taste was terrible.

Later, the cafeteria also made peanut milk and fruit milk, which he drank with gusto. Anyway, he would never drink pure cow's milk.

He gave the milk to Li Zheng: "Drink it."

Li Zheng: "It's not okay to drink too much. One cup is enough."

Sanwang returned the food and started to eat the bread and ham with great relish. He did not forget to mutter to Li Zheng: "Can you buy a box of this ham and bread? I'll take it back and let my family have a taste."

At first, Li Zheng thought it was funny to see him keep talking about taking the delicious food back home for his family, but after a while, he was brainwashed by Sanwang and started to discuss things with him seriously.

"If you can get good grades, you can ask your coach for more food coupons and buy them at the department store. That way you can take them back home for the New Year."

Sanwang thought it was a good idea. After finishing the bread and ham, he smacked his lips and said, "It's delicious, but it doesn't matter if I'm full."

Li Zheng handed his to him, "Would you like some more?"

Sanwang: "Let me ask if there is any more."

He raised his hand.

The flight attendant came over immediately and smiled, "What do you need, young comrade?"

Sanwang was a little embarrassed: "I'm not full."

The flight attendant smiled and said, "Breakfast is still being prepared. Please wait."

Sanwang sat down and waited, feeling a bit bored. At this time, Li Zheng pulled the shade cloth, and the sky outside was jade blue, warm and bright, making people feel refreshed. Sanwang exclaimed, "It's so beautiful!"

He pressed his face against the glass window. "Where's the sun?"

"To the east, behind us."

When the plane tilted to a certain angle, Sanwang finally saw the sunrise. The pale sky in the east was broken by thousands of dazzling rays of light, just like an overturned paint box, with rich ink and colorful colors that were extremely gorgeous!

Words cannot describe it.

He was stunned. It would be great if Xiaowang could see it so that he could draw it.

After the sun came out, the sky suddenly turned dazzling blue, with wisps, clusters, and strips of white clouds floating in the sky.

Sanwang couldn't see enough, he wanted to take his eyeballs out of the plane to have a look, "Why are there no birds? Why are there only clouds? Ah, the sky is so blue, the clouds... wow, the clouds are so big, as big as the mountains, so beautiful!"

Li Zheng: "We fly much higher than birds. If a bird hits a plane, the plane will be destroyed."

Sanwang: "...Then don't look at the birds, just look at the clouds."

As he was talking, the plane started to shake violently. Sanwang was so scared that he grabbed Li Zheng and reached for the life jacket under the seat, "Put it on quickly!"

It wasn't just Sanwang. Some people were so scared that they screamed and scrambled to get their life jackets.

A female announcer's gentle voice came from the radio, saying that this was wind turbulence, a normal phenomenon, and asked comrades not to panic.

Everyone immediately smiled as if nothing had happened, "Let's practice it."

Sanwang wiped the sweat off his face and sighed, "…I was so scared that I almost fainted."

Li Zheng: …

Seeing that Sanwang was no longer afraid, he switched places with Sanwang and let Sanwang lean against the window to see more.

Sanwang stood up and looked around. Everyone was looking out the window excitedly. He asked, "Coach, do we have a camera to take pictures?" Cameras and camcorders were all for taking pictures in his eyes.

Coach Bian was resting his eyes, not blinking, "Go ahead, don't worry, I'll give you a few more later."

Reporters from People's Daily, Wenhui Daily, and other newspapers, as well as the correspondent of the General Administration of Sport, followed them. When the athletes rushed out of the dormitory like ducks, someone was taking pictures. When they gathered on the playground to get on the bus, and when they gathered at the airport to board the plane, someone was taking pictures.

Of course there are some now.

Sanwang felt relieved, and sat back, staring at the two of them, mumbling something. Li Zheng seemed to be talking to someone at home.

After a while, boiled eggs and buns were distributed.

Sanwang took two eggs and four buns and ate them with some water.

After eating, I looked at the clouds in the sky outside and fell asleep unknowingly.

When I woke up, I heard the radio saying that we would arrive at Tehran Airport in about half an hour, and asked comrades to be prepared.

Commander Zhao has already started to give a speech through a loudspeaker to encourage the athletes, "Comrades, please wake up, put on our entrance uniforms, and show our most energetic side to the world."

In order to change the world's stereotype of them, they have put a lot of effort into it this time, and the athletes' uniforms have been specially designed.

Sanwang quickly took off his sportswear, put on a sweater, and then put on the entrance suit he was given. The other athletes also quickly changed their clothes.

Commander Zhao continued his words: "Comrades, you must show your best, smile, be confident and friendly. The Iranian people are our allies and one of our best strategic partners. They have made great efforts for us to participate in the Asian Games this time, so we must be friendly and neither humble nor overbearing."

Sanwang asked Li Zheng in a low voice: "What does it mean to be neither humble nor overbearing?"

Li Zheng explained.

Sanwang: "I understand. It means not to be shy or excited."

Li Zheng: …

Teacher Dong saw Sanwang and whispered, "Student Han Wangmin, it's very hot outside, are you sure you want to wear a sweater?"

Sanwang smiled and said, "Teacher, it's already cool in Beijing in the mornings and evenings, and I think it's just right for me to wear a sweater. The headquarters said that we should show our best spirit and energy, and this is my best!" It was a little chilly in the plane, and he thought it was just right for him to wear a sweater.

Teacher Dong didn't say anything. Never mind, he would go back to his residence soon anyway.

After everyone was dressed neatly, with their hair combed and their faces washed, Captain Zhao checked and was very satisfied.

Before coming here, he had specifically gone to Vice Chairman Deng for instructions, so everything was based on facts.

Led by Captain Zhao and several other leaders, the athletes filed out, including Sanwang, Li Zheng, and Tao Lili. Sanwang reminded himself to be neither humble nor arrogant and not bring shame to the motherland. He smiled slightly, straightened his back, and looked inward. He absolutely, absolutely could not let others see how excited and excited he was!

My name is neither humble nor arrogant!

As soon as they got off the plane, the Iranian sports officials and journalists who had been waiting at the airport for a long time were all dazzled.

Originally they thought that Chinese athletes would be a dark grey or a sea of ​​grey-blue, but they didn't expect them to be so fresh and bright.

The reporters rushed forward and took photos outside the cordon. In the camera, the Chinese athletes were smiling, confident and calm. Especially one of the big guys, with a small guy standing next to him. Oh, look carefully, it's a child! The Chinese team actually sent a child over, haha.

"Oh my God, they didn't wear work clothes to participate in the Asian Games. What a surprise." A foreign reporter exclaimed and clicked the shutter.

The Chinese female athletes were seen wearing blue-green long skirts, snow-white bows at their collars, and black leather shoes. They walked beautifully, gracefully, calmly and confidently under the scrutiny of the world's people.

Sanwang was walking with Tao Lili and Li Zheng, with the big guy Zhang Wei in front of them. As they were walking, suddenly a tall, blond-haired, blue-eyed foreign reporter named "Putong" lay down at their feet and started taking pictures of their feet.

Sanwang almost stepped on his head, but he dodged swiftly and did not panic. After all, he always remembered what the commander said: be neither humble nor arrogant.

We agreed to be neither humble nor overbearing to each other, what are you foreigners trying to do? ! !
