Legend of the Blue Lion

Chapter 435 Just because of this football

……

The conversation between the two reached an agreement that He Yu will train with Changsha Bahuang at the end of June.

At that time, Bahuang was in the middle of the league, and He Yu also went as a part-time goalkeeper coach.

Of course, he has no chance of playing.After all, this is not a lease, but a private act.

However, there may be many old Bahuang fans who will be excited.

The He Yu who had accompanied Bahuang through a period of turbulent years will return again in the near future.

Perhaps, this is a feeling.

……

He Yu bid farewell to He Yi and the others in Changsha, but the feeling of the couple was inexplicable.

Maybe, the relationship between them, I don't know whether they respect each other as guests, or is there a little subtlety?
He Yu didn't make an appointment with a group of old friends in Changsha, but directly got into the car arranged by his old classmate Gu Wenwu, and went straight back to his hometown...

Hunan, Changde, Gaoshan Street

It’s often said that returning home in good clothes, but it also has a little meaning.

What He Yu didn't expect was that all the neighbors in the Gaoshan Street community came out to wait for him at the alley.

Actually, for He Yu, he really didn't think he was a big celebrity, nor did he think how big a celebrity he was now.

But the fact is like this, in a community, there is such a little famous athlete, and they all follow the glory and feel happy.

From the time he got off the car to the door of his house, he was surrounded by people, most of whom were middle-aged and elderly people at the uncle and aunt level who had watched him grow up.

He Yu was also out of face, so he chatted with them one by one.

In the end, it took me half an hour to walk such a short distance.

When I got home, there was another big table of dishes, which was called a reception feast.

Relatives of the whole family also came, old and young.

The point is, quite a few of his cousins ​​came with their families.

At the beginning of the meal, after chatting like this, the topic was actually taken to another topic.

……

"Da Yu, I heard from Mengzi of our family that I saw news on the Internet that you are dating a foreign female star. Is there such a thing?" The third uncle who knows new things best and likes to gossip, Eating and talking.

And He Yu smiled awkwardly, and said:

"No, those are all rumors. The girl is a friend of mine, not a relationship between a man and a woman."

But before he finished speaking, the third uncle went on to say:

"I understand, I understand, I'm talking about friends now, I understand.

It's just, if it is done, you have to bring it back for us to see.

Our big family has never seen a foreign daughter-in-law! "

Talking and talking, everyone at the table said something, and I said everything.

It seems that this foreign daughter-in-law who doesn't exist at all has been said to be a thing.

Only He Xianyang, who seldom talked at the side and just smoked and drank whenever he had the opportunity, nodded with satisfaction and listened with a casual smile.

And He Yu's mother, Yang Xiu, will be much happier.

Perhaps, in their hearts, the son's ability to start a family is the most reassuring thing.

After all, He Yu is almost 36 years old.

It has been said all the time that one stands at thirty, and one is not confused at forty. He Yu is also a man who is about to enter middle age with half a leg.

However, he still has to do the same job as a boy at 25.

Just because of this football.

……

In the dead of night, after everyone from this big family had left, Yang Xiu was busy in the kitchen, and He Yu accompanied He Xianyang on the balcony.

He Xianyang's old smoker's temper has not changed, and relying on the confidence of He Yu's return, he became even more unscrupulous. Once he sat on the armchair, he smoked two cigarettes in silence, and was about to take out another one. When smoking.

He Yu really couldn't stand it anymore, so he stopped him from saying:

"Dad, it's been a while.

If you smoke any more, Mom will definitely lose her temper. "

He Xianyang said casually: "It's okay, she doesn't care about me."

At this moment, there was a sound from the kitchen...

"Old He, you can do it."

Then, He Xianyang honestly put away the cigarette case, and smiled awkwardly at He Yu.

"You see, your mother is like this. She is idle all day long, except for dancing and talking with me."

He Yu was also amused by him, smiled lightly, and didn't speak.

For a while, the father and son quietly looked at the distant mountains, rendered by the blurred shadow...

"I still remember that year, when we were here, you told me that you wanted to play professionally, and I was very happy.

Looking back now, it was almost ten years ago.

But hey, you see my choice is right! "

He Xianyang said, and smiled at He Yu miraculously.

In fact, in his eyes, his son will always be the best one.

Whether it was the son who gave up football at the beginning, or the son who put on gloves again later.

He Yu is also recalling, slowly savoring the experiences of these years, but he still can't get rid of his father's encouragement and support to him back then.

With a faint smile, he said, "Thank you, Dad."

"Nonsense, there is no thank you between father and son." Maybe because he felt sensational, He Xianyang's eyes were a little teary, and he changed the subject, "By the way, next year's World Cup is no longer available. What do you think?"

He Yu knew that what he was talking about was the situation of the national football team in the Asian qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup.

Entering 2025, in the first half of the year, there will be three qualifying matches in succession. He Yu only participated in two due to problems such as the schedule.

In these two games, they were tied 0-0 with South Korea and 0-0 with Kyrgyzstan.

The game he didn't play in was a 1-2 loss to Palestine, which was also a very morale-destroying game.

When He Yu was watching the live broadcast, he wished he could fly over to guard the goal immediately.

If nothing else, he is absolutely confident that he can keep the 1-goal advantage in that game.

However, it was too late.

This loss caused the national football team to miss the World Cup again.

Because, as of the 8th round of the World Cup Asian qualifiers, the points of the group are as follows:
South Korea, 7 wins and 1 draw, 22 points;
Kyrgyzstan, 5 wins, 2 draw and 1 loss, 17 points;
Palestine, 4 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses, 13 points;
China, 2 wins, 4 draws and 2 loss, 10 points;
Philippines, 2 win, 6 losses, 6 points;
Maldives, 8 losses, 0 points...

The competition system is that the first in the group will qualify directly, and the second in the group will participate in the play-offs for the second round.

In other words, under the premise of the remaining two rounds.

The national football team, 7 points less than the second-ranked Kyrgyzstan, has been completely excluded from the World Cup for another year.

Again, another four years to wait...

He Yu was expressionless, and said quietly:

"In the next four years, I will be 41 years old, I can't afford to wait..."
