Han Xing Yuan Gu

He won the second round without risk, and in the third round, Li Gu regained the feeling of being the king of children in the mountains. He shouted slogans and led everyone to win the final victory in one fell swoop.

It was not until the end that the participating teenagers felt the pain in their hands, and their hands were all torn by the rope.The other classes came prepared, wearing white gloves neatly, but they didn't have them, they wore them empty-handed.But no one cares about it, and there are rare moments when they deserve to cheer for themselves.It's not rubbish, it's not waste, it's upright, I heard others say No.1 in Class Seven.The sky is still very high and far away, but the boy will eventually grow up slowly.

After Li Gu got out of school, he sneaked over the wall to go to the hospital, and he went to announce the good news to Xu Jiwen.

When Li Gu was talking, he danced and danced, wishing he could play multiple roles to recreate the scene vividly. Xu Jiwen couldn't see how his dog's head couldn't stand two taels of oil, and sneered: "Excellent." Li Gu didn't know why , I feel that this looks very much like the old villager in his family, and he is a little closer to Xu Jiwen.He knew that Xu Jiwen was willing to listen, so he spoke more and more enthusiastically: "Teacher Xu, really, you have a lot of face. Our class is very good and united. You didn't see that scene, from the first game to the last game. How about it? Long face or not long face?"

Xu Jiwen was lying on the hospital bed, his face was as white as paper, but his eyes were jumping with joy: "It's worth your happiness to win the tug-of-war." Li Gu said "Of course".He was so cheerful that even Xu Jiwen's face was a little rosy with a smile.After a long time, Li Gu calmed down and said solemnly: "Mr. Xu, there has been no disturbance in class recently. Everyone is waiting for you to come back." Xu Jiwen slowly laughed.

His little fire was finally not lit on the damp and moldy pile of rotten firewood, and he saw a little light.

Two weeks later, when Xu Jiwen returned from illness, a little radish came to the class and whispered to the class: "Ms. Xu is back, Teacher Xu is back." The news spread like wildfire. .Everyone, sitting upright and not upright, was waiting for that thin figure to appear at the door of the classroom.

The energy can be seen, Xu Jiwen did not expect that he would also be infected by the students' emotions one day, he shouted with a sense of ceremony: "Let's go to class!" This sentence was full of energy, and Li Gu gave a "swish" Stand up and shout "Get up!" - Yes, Li Gu is already a small class leader.

When he yelled, the rest of the class stood up neatly like young saplings, and stretched out their voices in unison: "Old—! Teacher—! Good——!"

Xu Jiwen didn't yell "sit down" immediately, he was watching.Look at every child, every face in this classroom.He hadn't called any of them by name this past semester.They weren't the source of all his disappointment, they just happened to be the last straw of his frustration, so he resisted knowing them.But in fact, Xu Jiwen has a photographic memory. He has long remembered the names and faces of these children, and he even knows which one is in which subject.He didn't do it deliberately, it was just his instinct.

The students below were also looking at him, and even the dullest people could read something important from his eyes. They didn't make a fuss, and stood straight in the direction of the podium, towards Xu Jiwen.

Xu Jiwen tried his best to restrain his emotions, perhaps only those who were close could find his lips trembling.

It took him a long time before he spoke slowly, starting from the first student in the first row to roll his name: "Li Gao, sit down."

"Zhang Wenyuan, sit down."

"Su Xi, sit down."

"Li Gu, sit down."

……

until the last student.

This mutual understanding that should have happened long ago, finally at this time, they have confessed to each other.

The teacher-student relationship in this room has improved, and Class [-] has also hatched a vigorous style of study.Not to mention that everyone strives to be the first to learn, at least it has changed compared to before, and the cooperation of attitudes makes teachers of all subjects unbelievable.Even Cheng Yong, Yu Wei and others began to hand in homework condescendingly.For a while, the teacher in charge of the class was in a mixed mood. Which one was more depressing, not receiving homework or receiving homework that the students suppressed as if they were constipated?The topics written by the boys in the back row are really sad to see, as if they are poor and hospitable relatives who have nothing and have to work hard to get something out.

Sure enough, when the mid-term grades came out, the teachers and students were ridiculed by reality.The results on paper did not improve because of the sudden growth of collective honor. The only improvement was that no one handed in a blank paper.However, according to the rules of the world, blank papers are not included in the calculation of the average score. It is precisely because of Cheng Yong's collective sense of honor that he will not abandon or give up, and must compile all the test papers, and successfully lowered the already poor average score by one grade.

Facing the bottom one who was more securely seated, Class Seven finally realized their shame and was brave enough to catch up academically.

I'll know when the time comes

Previously, Class [-] was at the bottom overall, but Li Gu did well in the exam.Although it was the kind of "highest among dwarfs", it was enough for him to be happy for a while.He called the village chief to tell him about it, and said that after his special poverty allowance came down, he would not want the village chief to give him money to study.The old village head was also happy, and planned to go back tonight and open the bottle of wine for a drink.Li Gu didn't ask the village if they got the subsidy in the end, he just held the phone up to his lips, and said to the other end very lightly and firmly: "I will be successful, and I will build roads for you when I make money."

In a blink of an eye, it's real summer.

Before Li Gu went to Ji Hanxing's school again, he learned to call his school in advance to arrange a time with him.He took out one piece from the money he earned last time, and took a bus, which was a very ordinary bus, but when he saw the city's street scene passing by through the glass, Li Gu felt as if he was watching a bus. To the new world.Growth means that the bones are stretched bit by bit, the horizons are opened bit by bit, and a little bit accumulates together, and finally reborn into a different person.

As the weather got hotter, Ji Hanxing's school changed its uniform style.The white short-sleeved shirt and black suit shorts look so cute and cute on Ji Hanxing's body.Li Gu took him to drink ice soda.Taking out the bottle, braving the rare cold air of this season, I took a sip, cooling my throat and stomach comfortably for a while.Ji Hanxing's fingers were very thin and white, and they turned red from the cold after holding the bottle for a long time. Li Gu saw it and took out a handkerchief from his pocket, wrapped the bottle carefully and handed it back to him.Ji Hanxing has received meticulous care, and he appreciates his kindness. When he smiles, his eyebrows are curved and his eyes are very beautiful.

The kid sucked on the straw and asked Li Gu if Ningchuan's summer was fun. Li Gu thought about it for a long time. After staying there for more than ten years, he no longer had the concept of whether it was fun or not. It was just life.Li Gu said that there will be flowers all over the mountains and fields, and you can go into the water to catch fish, but there are more mosquitoes.He asked Ji Hanxing: "Are you recruiting mosquitoes?" Ji Hanxing said with a troubled look.He was white and tender, with thin skin, and would become horribly swollen if bitten by a bun.I used to live in Grandpa Ji's house. Because the floor was low, there were mosquitoes that could not be repelled at night. Grandpa Ji would fan him all night.As he talked, his voice lowered, and Li Gu stayed silent with him for a moment, he knew it, because this year there would never be an old man fanning Ji Hanxing all night again.

After a while, he coaxed Ji Hanxing to be happy, asking if you would go back to Ningchuan during the holidays?Don't be afraid to ask Grandma Rabbit to make you a mosquito repellent sachet, brother can also fan you.Don't ask this question, the answer is obvious, Ji Hanxing only has Ji Zhiqing as a bloodless relative, of course he is going to find him during the holidays.

Ji Zhiqing doesn't plan to go back to the city anymore, he has the intention of spending his whole life in Ningchuan.There was no summer vacation in the mountains, at least not when he was here.Those children were already old and their educational level could not keep up with their age. Ji Zhiqing was worried for them. After discussing with the village chief, he decided that the courses should be continued without interruption.This also means to him that he will not have winter and summer vacations like other teachers. After the students go back, he has to prepare lessons and correct homework, and all basic knowledge education is on him alone.The old village chief felt ashamed. He knew that this was not a good job. Ji Zhiqing could go out at any time and choose a more decent career and life.But Ji Zhiqing didn't seem to take it to heart, just doing the immediate thing.

Ning Chuan gradually formed a rule, as long as the children here go to study, it is fine, if they want to go out to work, at least three years of studying with Ji Zhiqing must be completed first, especially for girls.

Li Gu is happy to be able to go back to spend the summer vacation with the children again. For young people, there is no conflict between having enthusiasm for learning and looking forward to the holiday.

Recently, he has barely opened up a few tricks in his studies, and he is a bit shy about presenting treasures, and he has to pretend to be a calm brother in front of Ji Hanxing, so he shows a bit of cowardice: "Xing Xing, I, I think I can figure it out." Ji Hanxing's eyes seemed to be able to see through him, but he was very flattering, nodded vigorously, and gave a crisp "huh".When they summed up the holiday time, they found that Li Gu's school was a few days earlier than Ji Hanxing's school. Ji Hanxing asked him to go back first. Li Gu said, "It's okay. We have a teacher to mark the papers during the holiday. The school doesn't clear up so quickly." People. I will stay for a few more days, and I will pick you up after you finish the exam, so as to save Teacher Ji from coming over again."

This time, Consultant Li Ji Hanxing wants to eat chicken drumsticks. He has made up his mind that he can no longer ask the children to treat him to eat. He must make up for his brother's face. Ji Hanxing shook his head cleverly and dragged him to the school not far away. A small store to eat noodles.

Meeting Shao Li was something Li Gu never thought about.But he was working in the city, and there were many projects nearby, so it was normal to encounter him.Shao Li was wearing gray overalls, with some whitish paint spots scattered on his trousers, but he looked capable. He brought a few boys of about the same age to eat here.Seeing that Li Gu was refreshed, he sat down and asked Li Gu if he wanted to go to work.

"I'm not going to lie to you, the opportunity is good, you should think about it."

Shao Li took a casual look at the kid next to him, thought he was quite obedient, and casually asked who it was.Li Gu didn't want to go into details, but said that he was the younger brother of a distant relative.Shao Li smiled at Ji Hanxing, then beckoned lavishly, and asked the shopkeeper to add a cup of soy milk for him, and then dragged Li Gu to talk.Li Gu looked at Ji Hanxing. In fact, he would rather talk with Ji Hanxing, but because of the face of his fellow countrymen, he still wanted to hear what Shao Li had to say.The child ate by himself, and did not show any unhappiness because of being left out, so Li Gu felt relieved, moved his stool inside to a position against the wall, and let him sit down and continue eating.

"The situation is like this. My dad has done a good job in the last few projects, and he has taken on more jobs. Do you know what the biggest problem is now? It's either because he's afraid he won't make money, or he's short of people." Shao Li quickly scanned Glancing at the boys who were eating at the table behind him, he lowered his voice and said to Li Gu: "My dad said that the people under his command still need to know the basics, lest there will be problems if they are recruited from other places."

Li Gu took a sip of the noodles and asked, "Aren't there a lot of people in your village, why are you in such a hurry?"

This is right at Shao Li's sore point: "Let me tell you the truth, you don't know, there are people like my dad in the village. Now that the stalls are open, every family has work to do, and they are all bringing people to the city. .Our village is so big, and almost all the people have been taken away, so I am here to ask you, and also ask if you have any other people who can be brought out."

Li Gu frowned like an adult: "If you go to our place, there will probably be no one there. Now there are regulations. Ningchuan children must complete three years of education before they can leave."

Shao Li sneered: "Where is the rule, who made it?"

Li Gu disapproved of his attitude, but felt that the reasoning was too great. He couldn't break it apart for a while to explain it clearly to Shao Li, so he lowered his head and scooped up another piece of chopstick noodles, and his voice was loud. Little: "It's in the village."

Shao Li hugged his shoulders and smiled, not taking it seriously at all: "You are really... Once you have money, you can make it. In the situation in your village, which parent is willing to let go of an income of tens of thousands of yuan a year? The child is going to study?"

The two of them disagreed, and Li Gu couldn't bear to refute. He was about to speak when Ji Hanxing knocked off his chopsticks out of the corner of his eye. , Borrow hot water to scald it again and hand it back to him.Shao Li looked at how attentive he was with the children, and stopped talking. He felt that Li Gu was not very interested in this matter.

On the one hand, Shao Li felt that Li Gu was a little ridiculous, or that he didn't use such a cold word as ridiculous, just a kind of unconsciousness, innocent and stupid.What's the use of studying? He is about the same age as Li Gu, and he has already led a wall-painting team of two or three people under his father's promotion.On the other hand, seeing Li Gu's clean body, he was a little envious, and subtly thought that maybe Li Gu was just lazy and didn't want to come out to do coolies.But they came from ordinary places, so what could Li Gu be proud of? Even if it took a few years, wouldn't he have to work hard like him in the end?

There was a bond they had played with when they were young, and it didn't hurt their face if they failed to recruit security, Shao Li left with his little brothers after eating noodles.After a while, after Ji Hanxing finished eating, Li Gu wiped his mouth and hands.Only then did Ji Hanxing speak: "Brother Li Gu, are you thinking about what that person said just now?" Li Gu said he didn't know, he didn't know which was better, and he wasn't condescending enough to judge life choices.I just think that Xu Jiwen is right in one sentence. He has not done this well, so he has no right to doubt the significance of this matter. "Wait until I read No.1, maybe then I will know whether reading is useful. And... I promised Teacher Ji that I will read like it."

Ji Hanxing smiled and said, "I believe you can." Li Gu already knew that this kid just loves to cheer, but he was still happy, and stretched out his hand to scratch Ji Hanxing's nose: "Brother won't let you believe it for nothing."

There are indeed a lot of projects in the vicinity, and they saw a lot of digging roads and building buildings after they came out, which means that this area is undergoing rapid development, starting from infrastructure construction to update and iterate.Li Gu glanced at the uniform dark leather shoes in Ji Hanxing's school, squatted down and hooked his hands at the child like every time before: "Go, brother will carry you back."

The author has something to say

At this time, Li Gu thought that he was playing the role of a model brother in Ji Hanxing's life... Sigh, young.

I'm wrong

After returning home, Li Gu really showed that bullish energy in his studies.Other top students can be described as "working hard" and "down-to-earth", but Li Gu has the posture of studying fiercely.If these subjects were spiritual, Li Gu would probably have shivered and huddled together in fright.Just like this, he held back his energy, and his grades soared all the way.

Xu Jiwen's judgment on Li Gu was correct. With Li Gu's foundation, he couldn't compare with any city kid. He came late in literacy education, and even knew only limited characters.But his only advantage is that he works very clumsily, and he will never forget what he has learned. As long as it is mentioned by the teacher in class, even if it is a scrap of knowledge, Li Gu will be able to meet it the second time.

This is really not a very talented student, but the purpose of education and the criteria for judging students at that time were all based on books, and the test points that can be circled in a test paper are also limited, which is just right for Li Gu's "stupid" .

Li Gu worked hard in his studies. On the one hand, he wanted to win for himself, and on the other hand, he had to give Xu Jiwen a good face when he heard that Xu Jiwen went to the teachers of various subjects to touch a soft nail.The weakness of the seventh class has something to do with the strength of the teachers.Originally, the teacher didn't teach and the students didn't learn, so it was just right to shoot and break up.Now that students want to learn, teachers may not all want to teach. It is not so easy to change to hit it off.Xu Jiwen wants to lead these bastards to learn well, but life is cruel, first of all, he can't handle the English class.

The English teacher, Yang Yun, was unwilling to teach anything, and she was so angry that she even said that she would never step into class seven again.Xu Jiwen talked softly to her and she couldn't calm down, and the grade director couldn't come up with a better way.The county seat is a small place, and the kinship is intertwined. There are people in her family, and the grade director doesn't want to offend her.After all, Class Seven is regarded as a place of exile, a group of brats who can't be helped, and it's justified to work hard for them symbolically, but it's not worthwhile to really fight for them.

Xu Jiwen can only continue to substitute for the class, relying on the tape recorder and teaching materials to preach and teach.But he is not a professional after all, one day the answer of the test paper was contrary to the theory he taught in class, and the analysis office even wrote a "lue" that killed thousands of dollars, Xu Jiwen got stuck—either he was wrong, or the answer was wrong.He pondered for a long time. If he was a major in this field, he would have the confidence to judge the standard answer immediately, but he is not, and he would not dare to mislead his disciples. After thinking about it for a while, he said apologetically: "Let's go on first, Let's put this question aside."

The students were apprehensive about learning, respecting Teacher Xu and their belief that Teacher Xu was unprofessional in English did not conflict with each other, so they whispered to each other for a while.

Finally Yu Wei couldn't stand it anymore, he stood up abruptly, made a report and hurried out.

He went to an English teacher.

At this time, Yang Yun was originally scheduled for Class [-]. Since she didn't come, she was most likely in the office.Yu Weibing walked in with a straight face, and the moment the female teacher saw him, her whole body tensed up, her eyes vigilant and guarded.Fortunately, there were one or two other teachers in the office who were correcting homework, which gave her a little confidence. She just pretended that she didn't see this person, and quickly turned her back to ignore him.

Yu Wei took two deep breaths, from the sudden softening expression on his face, it is not difficult to guess that he probably had already persuaded himself for a while.The voice of the teenager who was changing his voice was a little hoarse, his eyes drifted towards the teacher and then quickly moved away: "Go back to class."

Yang Yun's face was refuted in front of so many students, and her grievances have not been completely eliminated.Although she herself knew that not going to class these days was beyond her duty as a teacher, but she was angry.Now the instigator came to the door on his own initiative and told her to iron the post a little.

Seeing that she ignored her, Yu Wei said again: "Go back to class."

"Who is your name?" Yang Yun frowned.

Yu Wei struggled to understand women's thinking. It was rare for him to be enlightened, took a deep breath, and said again: "Mr. Yang, go back to class." The soft words started, and the latter also had the courage to say: "Before... …I shouldn’t behave like that in class, it’s my fault.” Yang Yun hummed, feeling relieved a lot, but when he heard him mention the scene at that time, the anger and grievance of being slapped in the face flooded It came to my heart like this, telling her not to say a word to Yu Wei again.

Yu Wei also felt the embarrassment of bringing up old things again. He would rather have a fight or be scolded, but the other party was a silently angry and wronged female teacher, which made him unable to exert any strength.He was so embarrassed that he almost died. He really wanted to just leave. Whether there was an English teacher in the class cared about his business. He didn't want to study anyway.But... But Xu Jiwen's cautious appearance in English class really made people feel uncomfortable, as if he was afraid of making mistakes in every knowledge point, he looked more like a student than the one sitting below them.Obviously he was so energetic when he was speaking Chinese, and that old face looked much younger, so why did he have to suffer this?

Yu Wei forcibly resisted the urge to leave. He stared at the ground for a long time in an embarrassing silence, and finally said in a voice like a mosquito: "I'msorry, I'mwrong."

Even though he tried his best to put on the face of the second uncle, Yu Wei failed to make himself look cooler as he wished.His face was red up to the base of his neck, Yang Yun burst out laughing at this unconformable apology.

After that, she stopped it quickly, obviously not wanting other teachers in the office to notice the scene just now, which would probably embarrass this classmate even more.The female teacher still had a smile in her eyes, and her tone was pretending to be cold: "The tense is wrong." Yu Wei was so depressed that he couldn't say a word.Finally, the female teacher stood up and hugged her book: "Let's go. Go to class." Yu Wei walked behind her with his long legs and let out a long breath.

Xu Jiwen came to his senses and went to see his old headmaster, and the old man sent a message to arrange a dinner for him.After that day, two teachers who were not very good at teaching were replaced in the class, and those who stayed were all caring. I dare not say that each of them is capable of being a model worker, at least there will be a lot of teaching.

What is more dramatic is that Yu Wei became the representative of the English class, so that this old man is quite irritable in class every day.He has never had such a great trust from others in his life. He is about to leave class, which means that anxiety is coming. He dare not fail to do his homework and memorize the text. He sincerely suspects that this is the consequence of offending the female teacher.Afterwards, Yang Yun even chose her open class to be in Class [-]. In this shady corner, she gave a brilliant and good class.

When Li Gu went to the office to deliver the homework that day, he heard Xu Jiwen's high-spirited voice, as if all the strength in this broken skin was used to make such a loud resonance: "Let me tell you, there is no one who can't teach well. People!" Li Gu grinned silently against the outer wall of the office.

On the day of the final exam, everyone already has a number in their hearts.Essentially speaking, the exam is not about luck, it is about looking in the mirror, and you can’t fool yourself with how well you learn.Everyone could see Li Gu's hard work. After the exam, Xu Jiwen asked Li Gu how he was feeling. Li Gu scratched his head and said honestly: "I can do it, and I have written everything." Xu Jiwen patted him on the shoulder and said: "OK."

Do not ask

After the final exam was over, Li Gu was relaxed, and was planning to wander around the school, but was stopped by the owner of the canteen, saying that he didn't answer a call from his home, and asked him to come over at night and wait for news from the other party.

Whether you can get in touch in the era without mobile phones is very random.Li Gu heard that it was at home, so he dialed Ning Chuan's only fixed line - the local canteen before nightfall.The boss over there answered the call, and Li Gu hurriedly asked him what was the matter. He hadn't seen the old village head for a long time, and he remembered it very much. All trembling.Li Gu asked the boss to trot to find the village chief, and he was relieved when he heard the other party's still angry voice.

The village chief told him that Ji Zhiqing was sick and he was in the city right now. He told him not to come back in a hurry after the exam, but to see if Teacher Ji needed anything. "Your teacher Ji has a strong personality, and you don't want us to follow you when you go by yourself. But he took a long time off at a time, I guess the problem is not small. You go and see, if you really need to be hospitalized or something, you will accompany him, and if you need money Call the village. Don’t tell him to be alone in the hospital, it’s so deserted.”

"Hey, fine, I'll go in the afternoon." Li Gu hurriedly agreed, but he didn't expect that Ji Zhiqing was sick, and his heart that had been relaxed for a moment was lifted again.When someone around you is sick, it will inevitably make people feel that the world is impermanent. This makes Li Gu miss the old villager at home even more. He asked in a low voice: "Father, do you miss me?"

Li Guping rarely called him that.After all, the village head always said that he was picked up, and he never meant to make him a father if he was picked up, so he dragged Li Gu fiercely.Li Gu himself can't speak too sticky words, and more often he calls "village chief" and "village chief".But after being away for so long, he really misses the old villager at home.The village chief stayed silent for a while, his tone was still aggressive, but there was some unconcealable softness in his voice: "What do you want me to do, read your book."

Li Gu seemed to have got a positive answer, and smiled: "Don't worry, I will take good care of Mr. Ji. I will come back to see you when he recovers. I know you miss me." There was no rebuttal from the village chief. Given the opportunity, Li Gu hung up the phone.

Ji Zhiqing's hospital is not difficult to find.When Li Gu went there, he saw him struggling to get off the hospital bed. Ji Zhiqing received the injection with one hand, and reached for the saline bottle with the other free hand.Li Gu judged from this action that he probably wanted to go to the bathroom while hanging the water, so he took two quick steps to meet him, called Teacher Ji, took the salt water bottle and held it up high.

The moment Ji Zhiqing saw him, his eyes showed surprise and joy, and soon lowered his eyes, as if he felt embarrassed and embarrassed for causing trouble for others.Li Gu knew that the teacher was serious, so he didn't say much other comforting words, he just chatted with him about the interesting things that happened in school.His most natural attitude reassured Ji Zhiqing, and he was very grateful that this young man did not dislike a patient.Coming back from the bathroom, Ji Zhiqing seemed much calmer. He was supported by Li Gu and leaned back on the hospital bed to listen to him. He was relieved by the youthful vigor.

"The village chief told me that I'll stay here, Mr. Ji, don't worry," Li Gu patted his chest, "With me here, you will get better soon!"

Ji Zhiqing smiled, and said slowly: "I'm a minor operation, I can do it myself. You don't need to come, go back for the summer vacation." After hearing what he said, he still wanted to refuse, so Li Gu played tricks on him: "Teacher Ji, You just let me stay, it’s fun in the city, I don’t want to go back yet.” Ji Zhiqing smiled and shook his head, accompanying him to recuperate in this hospital has nothing to do with the fun in the city, but seeing Li Gu’s earnest eyes, He didn't know how to refuse, or subconsciously, he didn't want to stay alone in the cold ward.

Li Gu talked with him for a long time, until Ji Zhiqing was so sleepy that he fell asleep, he stood by and watched the liquid in the saline bottle drip down little by little, and when it was gone, he called the nurse to replace it with a new one.This was actually a boring thing. When Ji Zhiqing woke up in the evening, the potion had already been dispensed, and Li Gu lay beside his bed and dozed off bit by bit.However, he slept very lightly, and when Ji Zhiqing woke up, Li Gu recovered almost immediately, and asked Ji Zhiqing what he wanted to eat, and he went out to buy it.

Ji Zhiqing's hands felt cold after losing the liquid all afternoon, he went to touch his pockets, and wanted to get Li Gu's dinner money.Li Gu pressed it down, smiled and said that Ji Hanxing treated him to a meal and he never found a chance to repay it, and then ran out nimbly, without giving Ji Zhiqing a chance to pay.

Li Gu didn't go back until Ji Zhiqing had finished his dinner, the dormitory was dark, and he rarely saw the dormitory supervisor.The other party was very surprised when he saw him, and asked him why he hadn't left yet, and said that the dormitory had to be cleared, and it had to be locked up today. "Where did you go a few days ago? You should clean up people as soon as you have a holiday. I will give you a few more days to collect your things. If you don't leave now, I won't be able to handle it. I can't use water and electricity." After collecting the burden and carrying it, she went to Ji Zhiqing's place to accompany her in bed.

He was busy back and forth, getting hot water to run errands, and other people in the ward said he was fine.It's just that at his age, he doesn't look like Ji Zhiqing's son, let alone his younger brother, which also arouses doubts.Ji Zhiqing looked at Li Gu, with a gentle smile in his eyes: "It's my student." When others heard this, they almost praised the teacher and the student as moral models, which made Li Gu very embarrassed.

The "moral model" Li Gu used a bench to build a temporary bed, and slept in a ball at night.

The next day he woke up ignorantly, with a sore back and a sore back, Li Gu had to go out for a walk to stretch his little arms and legs.When I came back early with two bags, I happened to hear the nurse discussing the cost with Ji Zhiqing.

Before he had time to distinguish the meaning, the two had already ended their brief communication.Seeing him coming, Ji Zhiqing said with concern: "Is it uncomfortable to sleep next to the hospital bed? If you really want to stay, I will take you to my house."

"your home?"

Ji Zhiqing was milder than other times during his illness. He looked far away and said in a low voice, "It's where Xing Xing and my father lived before."

The urban area is relatively remote, and there are no lively large buildings.They turned into an alley, opened the door and saw the small yard left by Ji Zhiqing's father.Being able to have a small courtyard here many years ago shows that Ji Zhiqing's father is also a decent family. Although the house looks old on the outside, it is clean inside.

Ji Zhiqing wandered around the courtyard with complicated eyes, and before the neighbor opened the door, he slipped Li Guti in: "I won't go to the hospital for a few days before the operation, I will go back the same day, and I will also recuperate here after the operation. You can live in the guest room, you can also enter the study over there."

Ji Zhiqing wanted to help clean up, Li Gu sat him down, quickly found the kitchen and boiled a pot of water for him, and then started to work by himself.

Li Gu didn't ask him carefully why he came out of the hospital, he felt that the reason seemed to be guessable, but he was already a young man who was beginning to understand many things.He began to know that there are many helplessness in life that cannot be shared with others, and not asking is also a kind of caring.

just need a little sweet

Li Gu took a closer look. The neighborhood of this old house is a residential area, where there are older old men and women living there. It is usually not lively, but life is quite convenient.He stayed with Ji Zhiqing, but what puzzled him was that Ji Zhiqing seldom went out of the house, and occasionally met his neighbors in the yard without exchanging pleasantries.It stands to reason that he grew up here, so he shouldn't have no friendship with his old neighbors.After several face-to-face encounters without embarrassment, Li Gu observed that Ji Zhiqing didn't go out at all, as if he was afraid of causing trouble even if he went out.

Li Gu is already an older child, he questions silently but doesn't talk much, he still does his best to take care of Ji Zhiqing, occasionally goes to the yard to wash things, and when he sees his neighbors, he will politely say hello.The old lady next door saw that he was a little confused, so Li Gu smiled at her: "I'm Teacher Ji's student. He's sick, so I'll take care of him." He looked around the room with a complicated expression: "Is he okay?" Li Gu replied: "Minor surgery, it will be fine."

In a few days, it was time to go to school to get his grades, and that day also happened to be Ji Hanxing's last day of exams.Ji Zhiqing talked to Ji Hanxing's teacher on the phone in advance, and someone will pick it up at home when the time comes.

Li Gu picked and washed vegetables at home, and went to school a little late. When he arrived at No. [-] Middle School, all the other students had almost got their report cards, and the teachers left in the office.Xu Jiwen had a calm expression on his face, and his attitude was not warm when he saw him.However, according to Li Gu's understanding of him, this indifference is mixed with a temperament commonly known as "pretentious".

When the other teachers saw Li Gu, their expressions were rather complicated, and the eyes of those who taught him were particularly eager.The math teacher who was the least calm, walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "Li Gu, good job!" There are two full marks in the grade, one of which was taught by him.Li Gu had already counted, and grinned at him.

Xu Jiwen stopped pretending, put the report card in his hand, and commented: "Barely, it's okay." The teacher from another class came over and joked: "Your teacher Xu is the best at pretending. Talk to us." Xu Jiwen snorted twice: "I can be proud, but he can't."

Li Gu got the report card and saw that his grades in all subjects were satisfactory, but Xu Jiwen didn't boast much.I gave him a handbag: "Here, take it back and have a look, and keep working hard." Li Gu felt itchy in his heart, and he asked, "Teacher, me, how is my ranking?" Xu Jiwen raised his eyes to look at him, then beckoned him over, He spoke in a low voice, afraid of being heard by others as if he was taking advantage of it: "First in grade." Before Li Gu could recall it, he continued to speak loudly in a fake manner: "Work harder next time, this time you will be the best!" No.2 is not far away." The head teachers of other classes were so angry that they were blinded by this pair of teachers and students.

Li Gu glared at him, and Xu Jiwen waved his hand: "Okay, go back quickly after you get your grades, I remember your home is quite far away." The handbag he gave contained some old books, textbooks for the next semester, and some grammar And so on, to make up for the weak points of this poor boy.Li Gu thanked him for leaving the school, and he couldn't help but feel happy. When he walked, the wind was blowing under his feet, and he felt that he was almost floating all the way to Ji Hanxing's school.

The child's exams ended early, and he had already packed his luggage and waited for him at the school gate. He had more things than Li Gu, including a small suitcase and two backpacks.Li Guyuan saw him waiting at the door like a well-behaved little boy, and really didn't know what he would do if he didn't come.Li Gu ran over quickly, took the luggage without any explanation, hung the bags on his body one after the other, freed up his hands to carry his suitcase and his own bag, the whole person looked like a funny Christmas tree.Ji Hanxing wanted to carry it by himself, but Li Gu said that I just don't have enough hands, otherwise I would even lift you up, so you don't need to carry it by yourself, otherwise why do you need my brother.

Ji Hanxing heard this and looked at him. Li Gu was already much taller than him, and he had to look up when looking at him. He said obediently: "Then let me carry the bag for you, so you can hold me by the hand. It's done." Li Gu's heart suddenly softened, and he did as he did.It can be seen that subduing others without fighting is a natural ability, and later Boss Li was always arranged in this way by Ji Hanxing in a few words.

He now has a bag hanging in front of him and behind him, a child in his hand, and a report card of the first grade in his arms.Life is still very bitter, but because of the hope, he feels light all over.

On the way home, he happily went to buy two cooked dishes, asked Ji Hanxing what to drink, and brought back a large bottle of drink—this is really a very luxurious enjoyment.Ji Hanxing asked him what good news he had, but he refused to say anything.Ji Hanxing pretended to be angry with him, Li Gu hurriedly explained: "When we get home, you and Teacher Ji will be with me when we get home."

After the dishes were placed on the table and everyone was seated, he took out the report card.Ji Zhiqing looked at it over and over for a long time, hoping to read more information from the number filled in the pen, and the sickly face looked much ruddy.He told Li Gu to call the village chief to tell the story, saying it was a good thing, and he would tell his students when he went back.Li Gu had never seen him so happy before.

After many years, he thought, that is actually a very insignificant report card.For adults, there are more joys and sorrows in their world, so what is a report card?what's the function?But he soon understood that it was probably because life was too bitter, and even a tiny bit of hope could make people feel sweet.Those who struggle to live a hard life do not really live by good things happening, but by finding signs that "good things will definitely happen" from the clues of life to support themselves through the endless nights of human growth.

Except for the study room, there are only two formal bedrooms here, Ji Zhiqing occupies one alone to recuperate, and Ji Hanxing's luggage is logically placed with Li Gu.Li Gu was busy packing up the children's things, and the three of them lived their lives like this.

The author has something to say

The penultimate paragraph is what Ma Dong said on the show before. "A person who is very bitter in his heart can be filled with just a touch of sweetness" (roughly speaking)

need

When Ji Zhiqing was around, Ji Hanxing always acted extraordinarily sensible and sensible, he was a good boy with full marks, and he didn't see any arrogance that could be forgiven at this age.Only when facing Li Gu, will you reveal some of the children's special features.
