Teacher Takeaway - First

The store is just on a continuous detour after going uphill. A two-story wooden house with a high foundation and a large floor-to-ceiling window emerges from a row of seemingly ordinary stores, so the view must be very good!I looked up at the exterior of the restaurant and was impressed when I saw the sloping roof painted apple green.

"Will it be expensive?" I began to worry that I would be caught in the kitchen washing dishes to pay for the meal!

Jingyun shook her hands indifferently. "Don't worry about the price, delicious food is more important!" She dragged me into the store, and we wore sportswear like this—and sweated, and walked into this noble-looking restaurant with a view.

The interior is all wood, and the tables are one-piece, bent into question mark shapes; there's a lot of space, but not many customers.Jingyun offered to sit by the window and bask in the sun.

Even the menu looks upscale!I swallowed my saliva, I really couldn’t flip it like Jing Yun did; I finally mustered up the courage, opened it and took a look, closed my eyes immediately after seeing the price close to four digits, and then suddenly jumped out of the chair Jump up!

"what happened?"

"I, I don't have enough pocket money!" This meal will eat up my pocket money for almost a week!One week!

"Hey! Yang Youxuan, sit down!" Jing Yun pointed to the seat, and immediately jumped out of the tone she had just talked to her driver on the phone. "Sit down! Didn't I say don't care about the price?"

"Just, even if you want to help me out first, I don't want to!"

"This meal is mine, don't be nervous; I asked you to eat out, how could I have the nerve to ask you to pay for it? I also picked the restaurant!" She came to me, put my shoulders on my shoulders, and gently held the I push back into my seat. "Sit down, Youxuan; go ahead!"

"Is this okay? I didn't do anything..."

"You came to practice with me, didn't you? Alright, alright, hurry up!" She raised her eyebrows, and took the initiative to open the menu for me, "If you don't order, I will help you order? Order the most expensive one!"

The most expensive!I don't want it!So I ordered a cuttlefish noodle set very carefully; even so, it still cost more than 800 yuan.

Finally ordered, Jingyun happily drank lemonade, pointed out the window and said: "The scenery here is beautiful, right? You can see the mountains, and if you look behind you, you will see the city center... Is there any The feeling of floating in mid-air?"

Looking down, I can only see the balcony made of wooden boards, which limits the downward line of sight; well, I'm a little afraid of heights. "It's really beautiful, and the weather is fine today."

"Right? I like coming here very much. This store has been open for six or seven years, and I come here very often in my country." Jingyun told some history about this store; I looked around at the decorations and The paintings hanging on the wall, I just feel very relaxed here, but the things are so expensive...

The salad and soup for the appetizers came soon, and when I was tasting the yogurt salad dressing and chewing on the sweet corn, Jingyun suddenly slowed down and said: "...and, the designer of this store has a lot of background! "

"What's the origin?" I took a sip of the vegetable soup and was immediately attracted by its fresh and sweet taste.Great taste!

"Here's a reminder! The designer's surname is Liu." Jingyun squinted her eyes, staring at me with a malicious expression.

Surname Liu?Why does this surname feel so familiar... "So what about the surname Liu?"

"Hey! What's the teacher's last name?"

I immediately opened my eyes wide; no way! "Teacher Xiaowei is also surnamed Liu!"

Jingyun nodded, "This place was designed by the teacher's father."

With a sound of "kuang", my spoon fell into the soup bowl, and then I turned out the soup bowl and spilled a lot of soup!

"Yang Youxuan, are you exaggerating too much!" Jing Yun laughed, and threw a napkin at me; a piece of potato fell on my lap, I picked it up and ate it, and at the same time gave her a hard look!She did it on purpose!

While wiping off the spilled soup, I calculated in my mind how much money was wasted in this way, and then I heard her say again: "This store is opened by a friend of my dad's, but my dad also has capital, which is regarded as a shareholder; I will get the card later. If they do it, the account will be charged to my dad, so you can rest assured and don't feel guilty."

Finally understand.No wonder she thought of coming here to eat.

"Let me tell you first, my father and the teacher's father may be regarded as friends and business partners because of the relationship of this store." Jingyun quickly ate the salad and took out another spoon to drink the soup. "But before I entered school, I didn't know the teacher at all, and I didn't see her; I only heard her name. It was just a coincidence that I came to Daohe and was assigned to her class; I found out that there was such a teacher when I went home and asked. higher-level relationship." She paused, "But the teacher probably doesn't know; anyway, this is something for the elders, so I don't want to talk about it."

"Then... because of this, do you know a lot about the teacher's private affairs?"

Jingyun took a sip of the soup, with some tomato skin on her lips. "What do you think?" The corners of her mouth rose.

That smile seemed to remind me that it only belonged to the competition between us.I don't know, so I just don't think about it and continue to finish the soup.

"I'm sorry, I messed up the atmosphere; I also have other resources in school, so I don't need to use such a roundabout relationship. Youxuan, why didn't you think that with my grades, I should just run to It's the first choice, why did you choose a private school halfway up the mountain?"

In fact, I have thought about it, but I feel that it is the freedom of others to miss, so I don't intend to ask. "Is it because of the idea of ​​'I would rather be the head of a chicken than the queen of a cow'?"

Jingyun snorted. "Even if I get into my first choice, I will find a way to turn myself into a bullhead!"

So confident!But it's not like just talking big. "Why is that?" The first choice, like Daohe, is also a girls' school.

"Well..." The service staff came to tidy up the table and bring us bread. "The bread here is delicious, with cream filling, be careful it's too hot..." She took one, broke a piece and put it into her mouth. "Forget it, we can discuss this after we win the championship."

"Why does everything seem to wait until after winning the championship?"

"Don't you think that in this way, there is an inexplicable motivation to move forward?"

Winning the championship just for a private secret?It's too much of a fuss! "Listen to you!"

***

That lunch unexpectedly brought me closer to Jingyun; even though I didn't want to get too close to her, she just has a strange quality that makes people want to follow her... I might start a little I understand why Teacher Xiaowei chose her as the captain.

We later talked about the 12-man roster; Jingyun said that the teacher and she have almost already made the selection.Although I can't tell me yet, because the final result will be announced by the teacher, "But there will definitely be you! You can rest assured." However, Pei Yao will definitely replace Xinhui in the position of free defense player, just because of Pei Yao's softness Heel muscle endurance is better than others. After strengthening the ability to lift the ball and receive the serve, the performance in this position will be better than that of Xinhui.

Then, in the last Chinese class on Thursday, the teacher finally announced the list of players for the volleyball match in front of the whole class.

"Before I announce it, I have to tell everyone that the whole class has put a lot of effort into this volleyball game, whether it's practicing on the court, collecting information, accompanying classmates in training, etc., and even some people are responsible for helping to pick up the ball. I also worked very hard! I was completely united as one, and to be honest, the teacher was very, very touched." Teacher Xiaowei looked around the class and said in a very emotional tone, while I stared at her intently; is it an illusion?She smiled at me when she saw me!

"But we can only register twelve people, and the list of players is handed over. Unless one of them is injured, there is no way to make up for other students... I have observed this with Jingyun for more than a month, and I think there are about sixteen or seven people who can play. But it means we have to make a trade-off... Hey! It’s a bit uncomfortable to say this. In short, we have selected the best team that is most likely to help the class win honors. Don’t be discouraged if you are not selected, you know ?" The teacher pinched the tip of his nose, and the scene suddenly became tense.I saw Zihan praying!

"Okay, then I'll start reading from the starting list." The teacher picked up the list, "Captain, Huang Jingyun; free defense player, Jiang Peiyao; the remaining starting five are Xiao Jiaqi, Zhong Xinhui, You Yating, Jian Jiaen... ..."

Seeing that she was about to cry, I couldn't help reaching out and patting the corner of her table. "Sub-Han?"

"...and Yang Youxuan."

What?I go first?Are you kidding me?I froze on the spot, my words of comfort stuck in my throat.

And the red-eyed Zihan reluctantly held the corners of her lips, and said to me in a low voice, "Xiaoyou... Congratulations..."

Ma Zihan, how can I be happy when you say this with that expression that is about to cry!What's more... I can be regarded as taking your place!

"Teacher!" I raised my hand and stood up.

"Next... what's the matter? Youxuan."

The whole class seemed to be frightened by my reaction, and they all focused their eyes on me.

I panted, and met the teacher's eyes, "I, I go first?"

"Yes, you start first; this is the result of your hard work." Teacher Xiaowei showed a gratified smile.

"What about Zihan?"

The teacher waved his hand and told me to sit down. "I still haven't read five names?"

"But..." I pointed at Zihan; wasn't she going first?But this sentence... I can't ask it!

"Youxuan, calm down; sit down, I want to continue reading."

Jia En and Zi Han who were sitting next to me grabbed my hand, and I was forced to sit back.

"You are working hard...Xiaoyou is great. This means that you are stronger than me..." Zihan, you are crying...don't say such things to me again, okay?

"The next five are Sun Mingrou, Guan Yixuan, Huang Xiaojun, Fang Yuwen..." The teacher folded the list and looked towards me, "The last one is Lin Zihan."

Instead, Zihan... became a substitute?

"This list is mainly based on my observations during your practice, plus the records and the captain's own observations to select twelve people; please applaud them, for this game, they have invested more than others I believe they will be able to achieve great results for us on the court." She clapped vigorously, and other students also clapped along with her.

"I know that some people may not be able to accept such an arrangement; I can only say that this is also a kind of competition, and opportunities are always reserved for those who are well prepared." Teacher Xiaowei looked at me intentionally or unintentionally. Then, the school bell rang. "There is still practice after class today! Don't forget to go to the gym!"

After the announcement of the player list, Zihan's mood was "dangling" to the bottom; she didn't stay for practice today.I bit my lip, knowing that I was the last person to comfort Zihan, so I quickly packed my schoolbag and ran out of the classroom.

"Teacher! Teacher Xiaowei!"

Walking in front, the teacher in light blue sportswear heard my voice and turned around. "It's Youxuan, what's the matter?"

Looking at the teacher with a smile on his lips, I ran to her. "I want to ask the teacher a question!"

The teacher's squinted eyes concealed the reflection on the glasses, she pushed the glasses, nodded, and continued to walk towards the office. "Do you want to ask why Zihan was pulled to the bench?"

I lowered my head, "Zihan was the starter chosen at the beginning. For practice, she tries to stay for an extra hour every day! She is also working hard... She also told me that she doesn't want to lose her starting position ; she played well, didn't she?"

"Zihan is really good, otherwise why would I choose her to be in the 12-man list?" The teacher's tone was smiling, "But you should know best why you were the first to start in the end, don't you?"

"I never thought that the teacher would trade me for her!"

"Youxuan, it's not because I want to trade you for her." The teacher put her on my shoulder, and I felt a trace of seriousness in her eyes. "It's that your performance is indeed better than Zihan's; you won the starting position yourself."

"I won..."

"I heard from Jingyun that this Sunday, the only one who went back to school to practice with her this morning is you." The teacher lightly embraced my shoulder, and the distance between us was immediately shortened. "In addition to your devotion to practice since your foot injury healed, and your performance in the practice match, you have completely convinced me and Jing Yun!"

Yeah?I recalled the expression on Jingyun's face when I asked about the 12-man list when I was having dinner with me that day... Could it be that from then on, she had a certain evaluation in her heart?

"I have to say that Peiyao's background is good enough, and Zihan really has too little time to practice; otherwise, she might be the one who gets pulled out first." The teacher snorted softly, and I followed her to hallway. "Is Zihan sad? You and her are good friends again... Hey, don't worry! That child Zihan is very sensible and mature, and she will figure it out in one night. You go to the gym first, I put something very easy Hurry up, there will be a competition next week, don't forget that there is still a second class to play, you have to work hard!"

In this way, I was easily persuaded by the teacher.

Maybe it was inspired?Being Jingyun, Jiaqi and the others... so I just want to catch up with them and keep practicing with them, no matter whether it is skill or physical fitness, even if I fall behind them, I don't want to be left behind all the time; recall Let's face it, our group of girls who live in accommodation spend a lot of time practicing... This can be seen from the list of 12 people. Ten people who have accommodation are selected.

But... as long as I think of the tears that Zihan shed because she was not on the starting list, I feel so sad... and Zihan's skills are not necessarily inferior to mine, and her height also has an advantage. I just practiced better than her. So much so she is excluded from the starting list?

Can I really play...better than Zihan?
