Genius Girlfriend

After the long holiday of November, Jiang Yubai came to the school with a gift bag.

There are countless car models, airplane models, transformers, and Lego blocks in Jiang Yubai's toy room. However, he has almost no plush toys. He took his father as an example. He believes that a man with strong bones like his father is generally not addicted to plush toys.

After visiting the industrial park that day, Jiang Yubai found a stuffed cat doll in the gift bag, and he was going to transfer this thing to Lin Zhixia.

This morning, Lin Zhixia stepped into the classroom and walked to the seat as usual. Jiang Yubai immediately took out the gift bag and stuffed it into her desk drawer. This movement was smooth and smooth, and it was done in one go. He explained simply and frankly: "You are welcome to give your gift."

"Is it a special holiday today?" Lin Zhixia asked him, "Why did you bring me a gift again?"

Jiang Yubai couldn't answer. His series of actions seem to be trying to win over competitors. He couldn't help being lost in thought.

Lin Zhixia grabbed the gift bag and said seriously: "Jiang Yubai, you always give me something, I am a little embarrassed. Because I can't return you a gift of the same value. You give me something, which means you are losing money. "

Jiang Yubai retorted: "No. My father said that money is not the only measure of value."

Lin Zhixia tilted her head: "Your father is right."

Jiang Yubai nodded: "Yes."

Lin Zhixia opened the gift bag and saw a plush kitten toy. She was overwhelmed with excitement. Her eyes were clear, shining brightly: "Little cat, fluffy little cat."

She continued to fiddle with the bag, and found another greeting card and a box of vacuum-packed milk cakes.

"Thank you, Jiang Yubai!" Lin Zhixia turned to him and said.

This gift was only given to Lin Zhixia by Jiang Yubai, not prepared by him. But he didn't tell Lin Zhixiaming. He felt inexplicably ashamed and pretended that nothing happened: "These are not very good things."

Lin Zhixia suddenly tightened the gift bag, took out the "Human Observation Diary," and couldn't wait to write: This morning, I once again received a gift from Jiang Yubai. Good friends should be courteous. When I find something to return Jiang Yubai, I will definitely give it back to him.

Jiang Yubai basically had what he wanted. He doesn't lack everything that can be bought with money.

However, he still has an urgent desire that has not yet been realized.

He wanted to far surpass Lin Zhixia and heard Lin Zhixia say with his own ears: Jiang Yubai, you are amazing! I lost to you! I lost so thoroughly!

So far, hope is slim.

However, Jiang Yubai will never give up!

One day, Lin Zhixia will become his defeat.

For Lin Zhixia, today's school life is extremely happy.

In the afternoon class meeting, the students in the fourth grade (1) class ushered in another good news. The school decided to organize an autumn outing for this semester in mid-October. All the fourth grade students will visit the city’s ocean aquarium under the guidance of their teachers.

Oceanarium!

These five words make students look forward to it.

Lin Zhixia was very happy. She has never been to the Oceanarium.

She feels that today is simply her lucky day. She received a kitten doll and can plan an aquarium trip. Moreover, she now has good friends, and she can observe various aquatic creatures with Jiang Yubai.

The only problem is that this autumn outing adopts the principle of "voluntary registration" and charges 76 yuan per student.

That night, the first thing Lin Zhixia did after returning home was to find her mother and ask her mother for money shyly: "Mom, we are going to the Ocean Aquarium for the autumn trip in our grade. Everyone has to pay 76 yuan. Teacher. Say, this is the discount price for group purchase, including lunch at noon. Mom, can you give me 76 yuan?"

When Lin Zhixia spoke, her mother was cooking. With a wave of the iron knife, it chopped on a piece of ribs and made a loud "bang", Lin Zhixia was frightened. She hid outside the kitchen door, showing a small part of her face, looking at her mother eagerly.

"Mom, Mom," Lin Zhixia said sweetly, "I want to go to the Ocean Aquarium."

After treating the ribs, mother turned on the faucet and washed her hands quietly.

An old cast iron water pipe stood under the kitchen window sill. A water meter hung on the side of the old water pipe. At the end of each month, the staff of the water plant will come to check. Water meter and allow users to pay. Many families have their own unique ways to save money, and Lin Zhixia's mother is one of them. She held the handle of the faucet and tightened it slowly, the water meter stopped rotating, and there was still a drop of tap water slipping from the outlet and falling into a ceramic basin.

The water meter has stopped.

The drops of water are still ticking, accumulating less and more.

Lin Zhixia walked over and grabbed her mother's apron: "Mom, turn off the tap. We can't steal water..."

Mom finally answered her words: "Xia Xia, your brother is in junior high school, and he will have to take the entrance examination in two years, and he will have to go to high school and university after he finishes it. So are you, you must continue to study, and your parents have to save money for you. You Grandpa and grandma still want to renovate the old house. Your grandparents’ neighbors have built new houses, all with red bricks and concrete roofs..."

"How much money is there at home?" Lin Zhixia asked suddenly, "Can we trade stocks?"

Mom’s cold fingers touched Lin Zhixia’s face: "Where is it so easy to stock up? Mom and Dad don’t have iron rice bowls, so they point to this small shop to feed your two brothers and sisters. There is one in front of our community. A Jinrunfa supermarket, there is a Century Lianhua in North Street, and Carrefour is still being built on the east gate. When they bring Carre out of Fujian, there will be fewer customers on our side."

Do business, pay attention to credibility, but also pay attention to luck.

I think back then, when Lin Zhixia's parents first came to the provincial capital, they relied on smashing pots and selling iron and piecing together to buy this store. The business in the first two years was the best, and I did earn a lot. I also paid off all the debts owed by the family, leaving only one bank loan. However, since Jinrunfa, Century Lianhua and other genuine chain supermarkets have been established near the community, the passenger flow of Lin's stores has dropped significantly.

This is also no way.

Lin Zhixia's mother opened the gas tank and poured oil on the stove to heat the pan. While cooking, she said to Lin Zhixia: "If you want to buy books and tutorial materials, let alone 76 yuan, it is 760 yuan, mother is willing to give you. But what is the point of going to the aquarium? Xiaxia, you guys I’ve never been to such an expensive place during the autumn outing from the first to the third grade. Why did the fourth grade suddenly increase the price to 76 yuan? Are the parents of other students okay?"

"I don't know," Lin Zhixia replied gruffly, "Mom, Mom, I really want to go..."

"Don't act like a baby! Like a squeamish bag all day long." Mom sternly stopped.

The oily fume in the iron pan diffused outwards, wafting a choking smell. Lin Zhixia sneezed, her fingers gripping her mother's apron tightly: "Other students can go, why can't I go?"

Mother was holding the spatula and frying the braised ribs in the iron pan. Her tone became hurried: "Because your family is poor. Your family is poor! Remember? Your parents are not natives of the provincial capital. They came to the provincial capital in vain without relatives and friends. Is money so easy to earn? Don’t you always compare with other classmates in school. Did you go to school to study, or to compare with others? If they have something, you have to have it, then our family’s life can’t be passed? Think of mom, dad and brother, don’t be selfish."

Lin Zhixia was full of grievances and held back tears: "Our school organizes autumn outings. I just came to ask you why I became a selfish person? If I don't go, I won't go, and I didn't say I must go."

The shovel made a messy clash at the bottom of the pot. Mother turned her back to Lin Zhixia and asked her, "Do you know how much food you can buy for 76 yuan? You and your brother are growing up and need nutrition. You can't cut the eggs, milk, pork and fish at home. You can go to the aquarium. After playing for a day, 76 yuan is spent, is it worth it?"

Lin Zhixia was dull and silent. She stood there, waiting for her mother to coax her.

But today my mother is in a bad mood. Lin Zhixia was about to cry, and her mother did not say a word to her.

My mother only said: "Your school is the number one primary school in the city. The leadership team made a decision and ignored the financial conditions of the students' families. I can't afford 76 yuan, but I just can't bear to let you waste it. We You are not the only one at home. You have to think more about others. Don’t let everyone surround you and see how selfish and wasteful you are! Understand?"

Lin Zhixia became more sad, and cried silently.

She didn't cry because she couldn't go to the aquarium. She actually didn't know where this sad emotion came from. Why do people shed tears when they cry? In this way, anyone who sees her tears will know that she is uncomfortable.

Lin Zhixia stood at the door of the kitchen, hesitant to speak.

Half a bowl of red chili was put into the pot, pale white smoke filled the pot, and my mother was choked to sneeze.

A small fan is installed on the side of the stove. The shaft of the fan had already been solidified by the oil, so my mother used a chopstick to poke the fan blades so that the fan gained the initial power to rotate, blowing away a part of the kitchen fumes.

Lin Zhixia shouted: "Mom."

Mom asked her: "Do you still want to go to the aquarium? Did your mother tell you everything for nothing?"

Lin Zhixia said listlessly: "I'm not going. I don't want to eat at night."

She failed to arouse the pity of her mother and made her anger even higher.

The whirling sound of the electric fan stopped at this moment. Mom put the spatula off, and said without any movement: "If you don't eat, you won't eat! Who are you scared of? Go back to your room now! When will you figure it out and come out again."

Since learning about the autumn tour this afternoon, Lin Zhixia has been very excited. She looked forward to returning home early and sharing the good news with her parents, but she did not expect such a result in the end.

During the spring outing last semester, each classmate had to pay 34 yuan, and my mother readily gave the money to Lin Zhixia.

Also... last month's class fees, library borrowing fees, subway transportation fees, and provincial library Internet fees, totaling 74.45 yuan, were all paid by my mother.

Why is it not working this time? Is it because 76 yuan is too much?

Lin Zhixia was very at a loss. She sat in her room and thought: It turns out that my happiness is based on money. Have I really studied Transcendentalism and Transcendentalism? Both types of doctrines advocate for one person to abandon material comforts.

It was dark at half past six in the evening.

The moon outside the window was so round and bright, and the stars halo soft. Lin Zhixia saw the "Piece II" in the Andromeda galaxy.

The so-called "Piece" is the brightest star in the Andromeda Galaxy.

Scientific research in recent years has shown that the distance between the Milky Way and Andromeda is getting closer. In billions of years, the Milky Way will hit Andromeda.

Lin Zhixia looked up at the sky and said to herself: "Andromeda, the Milky Way, don’t be fooled by the gravitational forces of both of you two galaxies, the closer you are, the easier it is to be swallowed. You know why the quantum chromodynamics pull Will one of the terms in the quantity destroy CP symmetry? Have you understood the Peccei–Quinn theory? The mass of quarks cannot be equal to zero. If there is Peccei–Quinn symmetry, I think the universe has dark matter. You can perceive the universe Dark matter?"

Looking up at the sky and expressing what she thought and thought made Lin Zhixia feel relaxed. The only problem was that her stomach was roaring with hunger.

Grumbling, ringing nonstop.

Being hungry is really uncomfortable.

Lin Zhixia fell on the bed and hugged a cat doll tightly, her entire face buried in the plush fabric.

She heard the sound of bowls and chopsticks in the living room, and her parents were eating.

Tonight’s dishes include stir-fried cabbage, stir-fried wormwood, braised pork ribs, tomato and egg soup, all of which are Lin Zhixia’s favorite.

She was so wronged and wanted to eat.

But when she said she would not eat, she would just not eat!

People with lofty ideals do not drink the water from the Pirate Springs, and those who are cheap will not be eaten!

Lin Zhixia is in bed today even if he is hungry! I will never go to the living room to have a bowl for dinner!

Never eat it!

Lin Zhixia is very backbone!

In the living room, Lin Zhixia's father whispered: "It's almost done, call her out for dinner."

My mother's voice was even smaller: "I left half of the ribs for her. The cabbage and dried fragrant are all served in bowls. I'll warm her up later."

"What's the matter?" Lin Zeqiu bit the fast son, and suddenly asked, "Why are you scolding her and not letting her eat at the table? This is the custom of which rural village, or how do you prevent girls from eating at the table? ?"

Dad glared at him: "Just say a few words, don't make your mother angry anymore."

Lin Zeqiu sighed inaudibly, "Mom, why are you angry?"

My mother looked at Lin Zhixia's closed door, and replied with a tired expression: "It's nothing serious. I had some trouble buying goods early this morning, and it was solved. I just suffocated in my heart. You and your sister are there. When going to school, your dad and I have to provide for our two children. Some things are completely unnecessary to buy, and there is no need to consume... Your sister’s school organizes an autumn tour. Each person has to pay 76 yuan to go to the ocean aquarium. The aquarium ticket How expensive, your sister wants to go. I trained her and she won't eat dinner."

"It's all used to it. It doesn't matter if you let her dry, let her think about it." Dad agreed. He picked up the chopsticks and lunch box, ran back to the front door, and continued to look after the business.

Lin Zeqiu had two bites of rice and felt very uncomfortable.

He is the elder brother of Lin Zhixia. He grew up with Lin Zhixia since childhood, and he knew the most about Lin Zhixia's character. Lin Zhixia loves eating very much. His favorite fruit is strawberries, his favorite dish is braised pork ribs, and his favorite soup is tomato and egg soup.

Tonight, she can abandon the braised pork ribs and tomato and egg soup, which shows that she is not ordinary sad.

There are three bedrooms in the house, the largest one belongs to Lin Zhixia, the smallest one belongs to Lin Zeqiu. Family status is clear at a glance.

Lin Zeqiu didn't want to control Lin Zhixia. He always felt that his parents were too partial and overly caring for his sister whose IQ was different from ordinary people. But when he thought that Lin Zhixia might be hiding in the room and crying, Lin Zeqiu's meal tasted like chewing wax.

The incandescent lamp in the living room shook, maybe he was dazzled.

The cold wind roared past the window, the cold wave hit tonight, the temperature dropped, and a layer of mist formed on the glass window. How can you not eat in the freezing weather?

Lin Zeqiu peeled off the rice in the bowl, and didn't even pick up the vegetables. Then, he returned to his room and hesitated for about two seconds before opening a locked drawer.

In the drawer lay an old yellowed photo.

This photo was taken ten years ago, when Lin Zhixia was not born, and his parents took Lin Zeqiu to take a family portrait. Lin Zeqiu sat on his father's lap, and his mother held him by the hand. He looked like an only child who received all the attention of his parents.

Lin Zeqiu picked up the photo and found the hundred dollars under the photo.

When returning home to celebrate the Spring Festival last year, grandma secretly stuffed Lin Zeqiu a hundred yuan bill. But she did not give Lin Zhixia a cent.

Grandma said to Lin Zeqiu: "The grandson is the grandson, and the granddaughter is the granddaughter. The granddaughter is the daughter-in-law of someone else's family, and you are the root of our old Lin family."

Lin Zeqiu hid the 100 yuan for more than a year, but he was never willing to spend it. And now, he was holding the banknotes in his hand, making his palms sweat slightly. He left his bedroom and pushed Lin Zhixia's door.

Lin Zhixia closed her eyes, lay flat on the bed, folded her hands on her chest, as if to isolate all sounds from the outside world.

Lin Zeqiu was taken aback by her, and saw her crying so that her eye sockets were swollen, and his throat felt sore. He shouted: "Lin Zhixia, get up! It's only what time, and you will go to bed, are you a pig?"

"Don't disturb me," Lin Zhixia still didn't open her eyes, "I'm purging my consciousness."

"Clear ghost! Get up quickly." Lin Zeqiu grabbed her.

She shook his hand: "You are so annoying."

Lin Zeqiu stretched out his hand again and pulled her pillow. She frowned and said, "Why are you a elder brother and not a elder sister? Others’ elder sisters are so gentle, and your brother hates you most."

Lin Zeqiu was so angry that he lied and said, "The hundred yuan that Dad gave you."

He loosened the bill and placed it next to Lin Zhixia's bedside table: "What other people's children can have, you will have. You don't need to envy others."

After speaking, Lin Zhixia immediately sat up from the bed.

She refused: "Thank you dad, you return the money to dad. I don't want to go to the aquarium. No need."

Lin Zeqiu has nowhere to go, standing still rubbing his hands and feet: "I let you go, you go, where there is so much nonsense! Our family is not moneyless. It is mom and dad, you know, they just want to save money , No vision..."

The bedroom door has opened a slit.

Mother was holding a tray and brought steaming meals and soup. She kicked the wall and asked, "Are you two here?"

The aroma of braised pork ribs drifted into the bedroom.

Lin Zhixia is like an old monk entering Dhyana, unmoved.

Lin Zeqiu has quick eyes and quick hands. He stuffed one hundred yuan into Lin Zhixia's schoolbag. He relaxed and was doing arm swinging exercises. Seeing his mother brought food to coax his sister to eat, he quickly helped him: "Lin Zhixia, your belly is crying, I hear your belly calling."

"I'm not hungry." Lin Zhixia stubbornly said.

Mom sat down by Lin Zhixia's bed. She picked up a porcelain bowl, shaved the pork from the ribs with chopsticks, and scooped up a spoonful of rice with a spoon, added some cabbage, fragrant dried, and pork ribs, and handed it to Lin Zhixia's mouth: "Xia Xia, take a bite?"

Lin Zhixia shook her head: "No, I won't eat!"

"Xiaxia, do you plan to not eat for the rest of your life?" Mom asked her, "Just because mom said something to you, are you so angry with mom?"

Lin Zhixia opened her mouth and bit the spoon.

Mom muttered to herself: "If you want to go to the aquarium, then go. Mom apologizes to you. Mom is in a bad mood today and is angry with you..."

Lin Zhixia ate and cried: "Why did my mother murder me and call me rubbish... When you scold me, I feel that you don't like me. I can't forget every word you mean to me, I His memory is so strange, but you don’t understand, no one understands me, no one understands me. I'm so sad, mother..."

Mom wiped her tears with a paper towel, and she was wiping it, her mother was a little bit cried, and choked up: "I haven't seen a child like you, and I don't know how to raise you. Mom was doing farm work in the field when she was young, and the locust crawled. When I **** blood on my leg, I have to continue to work. Your grandpa and grandma scolded me more seriously than I told you."

Lin Zhixia choked continuously: "My mother is so pitiful."

Big tears fell, she hugged the puppy doll tightly: "I can imagine that scene..."

"Go to the supermarket," my mother called to Lin Zeqiu, "give your sister a bottle of strawberry milk."

Lin Zeqiu ran fast: "Go right away."

Lin Zeqiu used the fastest speed he could achieve in his life. When the father heard that his daughter was crying, he asked his son to take two bottles of strawberry milk and strawberry-flavored lollipops. The family tried their best to coax Lin Zhixia.

However, after Lin Zhixia got up the next morning, there were still red blood in her eyes.

She adjusted her mood, carrying a bottle of strawberry milk and a strawberry lollipop in her pocket, happily going to school.

Today, Jiang Yubai came earlier than Lin Zhixia.

According to daily routine, Jiang Yubai tore off a pack of disinfectant wipes and carefully wiped the desks of himself and Lin Zhixia. He wiped the tabletop clean, bright and reflective.

Tang Leqin, the deputy monitor of the fourth grade (1) class, passed by here, stopped on the spot and praised: "Jiang Yubai, the table where you and you are at the same table is so neat."

Tang Leqin is one of the most obedient girls in the class. Teachers often praised her for being sensible, intelligent, attentive, and attentive in class. Normal class fees and tuition and miscellaneous fees are charged by Tang Leqin. Today is no exception. With a blank paper for registration, a ballpoint pen, and a plastic bag for money, Tang Leqin was collecting fees for the autumn trip this semester.

She stood in front of Jiang Yubai and told him: "76 yuan, autumn travel fee."

Jiang Yubai opened his schoolbag and found out a Dunhill wallet. Tang Leqin didn't recognize the Dunhill brand, but she knew at a glance that this wallet was definitely not cheap. The leather itself is dark blue, and the zipper is golden. The combination of the two colors can produce a harmonious beauty.

Jiang Yubai's **** penetrated into the mezzanine. Tang Leqin saw a large stack of hundred-yuan bills and couldn't count how many there were.

She suddenly remembered the nickname "the richest man in the class Jiang Yubai".

She looked terrified and took a step back automatically: "One hundred is enough, Jiang's richest man."

The richest man Jiang handed her a banknote.

The morning sun is just right. Tang Leqin took the paper money, took a photo of it, and verified the watermark: "I am asking you for 24 yuan."

Zhou Bufeng, who was sitting in the front row of Jiang Yubai, suddenly turned his head and said to Jiang Yubai: "Jiang Yubai, you are so rich! I won't find you for 24 yuan, just give it to me. Would you mind?"

"I immediately called the police and said you were robbed, would you mind it?" Lin Zhixia just walked into the seat and took the sentence smoothly. From when she arrived in the classroom to when she was seated, many students in the class frequently looked at her.

Because Lin Zhixia has a double ponytail today.

Her hair is black and thick, and the ends of her hair are slightly curly. Pink strawberry hair ropes are tied on the left and right sides, which makes her very beautiful and cute.

The reason why she chose the double ponytail today is because she hopes that her different hairstyle can distract her fellow students from the red blood in her eyeballs. However, she found that more people watch her.

"You are so cute." Tang Leqin praised sincerely.

"It all depends on hairstyle." Lin Zhixia responded modestly.

Tang Leqin lifted the plastic bag in his hand, allowing Lin Zhixia to see the full money in the bag. Tang Leqin urged: "Autumn tour fee, 76 yuan."

"I'm not going." Lin Zhixia said.

Jiang Yubai sat aside and asked her, "Why don't you go?"

Lin Zhixia didn't answer, Jiang Yubai made a fist with his left hand: "Do you want to read at home? Then I won't go."
