Chapter 9 7. My First Love Story

After Dawei left, I didn't go to the game in the aquatic product market. I had nothing to do, so I practiced the tricks Dawei taught me at home every day: dealing cards, drawing cards, etc.No matter where I go, I always carry poker in my pocket, practice my hand whenever I have the opportunity, and occasionally try my luck in the small game of stare, but I have never dared to make a thousand, and I was not sure of myself at that time.I always go smoothly during practice, but if I really want to do it with real guns, my heart is always up and down, probably my mental quality is not strong at that time.But if you really encounter a stupid person, occasionally start to practice courage.

It’s going to be twelfth lunar month soon, I go out to play every day, and by being smart, I can win a hundred and eighty yuan every day. Gradually, the savings in my hand are about 130,000 yuan.At that time, I was considered a very wealthy small landlord, and it was time to find a partner, and Xiao He became my girlfriend. Xiao He works in the hotel next door to my house. She is very pretty. I always go to see her, and we become boyfriend and girlfriend.She also knew that I gambled, but she didn't say anything when she saw that I always took the money back.Xiaohe lived in a very difficult environment. Her father passed away very early, and her mother remarried when she was very young. She lived with her older sister and left home to work as soon as she finished junior high school.She lived in a hotel, and I felt unsafe, so I took her to live with my parents.My parents always objected to my idleness all day long, but seeing that I could earn money and have a girlfriend, they thought I could live a peaceful life.

Xiao He and the little sisters around him are talking about who married a good husband and who bought a big house all day long.At the time, I thought she was a little vain, but now that I think about it, she probably longed for a complete family and a stable and normal life.At that time, I was thinking about rushing the game all day long, and I had very little time with her, and I never bought her any expensive gifts.When the new year was approaching, I reluctantly accompanied her to buy some clothes and gifts for her sister and brother-in-law. At that time, both families thought that we would get married and live a peaceful life.However, the casino failure I will talk about later turned me from a rich man into a poor man with a lot of debts.The days couldn't pass, so Xiao He proposed to break up, and I only gave Xiao He a few hundred yuan, which was just enough for her travel expenses to go home, so it was considered a breakup.

A few years later, I was a little out of shape, idle and bored, just wanted to see how she was doing.Out of vanity, I ran to print a box of business cards, the title on the business card was a salesman of a big company.Don't look at the salesman, even in that small town, he would be regarded as a fake person. I knew the address of her home, so I specially bought a high-end suit, dressed myself up like a cow, brought a lot of gifts, and rented a car to find Xiao He. I came to her house around noon. It was a small courtyard house with an iron gate, and the door was unlocked. There must be someone in the house.I knocked hard on the door, and dogs barked in the yard, and after a while, a woman came out to answer the door.Her eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Xiaohe, I think it should be her sister.When Xiaohe and I were dating before, we talked on the phone, and after she asked me who I was, she happily let me in.

Xiao He is not at home, she went to Guangzhou with her brother and sister-in-law.Her brother was the first to engage in soliciting customers in taxis. Because they were black cars, he was always caught, and the business has not been good.Later, I sold the car and went to Guangzhou to help a friend do business. After gaining a foothold, I took my wife over there. Later, seeing that Xiaohe was fine all day long, I took Xiaohe over to help. When I chatted with her sister, the topic naturally revolved around Xiao He.She felt very sorry for the matter between us, and she didn't treat me as an outsider, she gave me a hard reprimand, saying that I don't know how to cherish such a beautiful sister, and she goes out to gamble all day long, so I can only listen honestly.

Later I asked her if she could contact Xiaohe for me, but she called Guangzhou, but no one answered.Her husband came back at noon and asked me to have dinner. I saw that Xiao He was really not going to be seen, and it was meaningless to stay any longer, so I got up and said goodbye.Before leaving, she took out a business card from her bag and left a card for her sister to pass on to her, and asked her to tell Xiao He: Call me when you come back and say I want to see her.That's the one I used for that box of business cards. Later, Xiaohe called from Guangzhou and told me that she had already found a partner and asked me to look for it as soon as possible to avoid delay. She also said that she would never come back.

My first love just passed away completely and became a memory.
