Reborn as a tyrant
Work related
Xiaobao looked serious, and Zhang Dashan and Zhang's mother also sat up straight.
"This time I went to the capital, besides seeing the master, I also sold an orchid." He said and handed over the passbook.
"Orchid? What is that?" Zhang's mother was a little puzzled, took the passbook and opened it, and then she was stunned for a long time before stammering: "Da... Dashan, take a look, Did I see a few more zeros in my eyes?"
"Hiss!" Zhang Dashan took a look at the passbook and gasped, "This... is it ten yuan?"
"It's one hundred thousand." Zhang Xiaobao waited for them to wait for a while, and said with certainty, "I dug an orchid in the bamboo forest, and I thought it was beautiful, so I showed it to the master. The master recognized it as a very rare species. I just happened to be going to the capital, so I took it there to see if anyone wanted it. A total of one orchid and a few sprouts sold for 11 yuan, all of which were real."
Fortunately, I only told them 11. If it was more than 100 million, they would all have a heart attack.
"My God." Zhang's mother held her chest and waited for a while before she found her tongue. "A single flower is worth so much money. I think it has become a genius."
"Last time I heard that a grass is worth millions! What do you know?" Zhang Dashan came back to his senses, and immediately despised Zhang's mother, showing that he was very knowledgeable.
Zhang's mother gave him a sideways look, and didn't care about it with him, "Didn't you say 11? Why is it only [-]?"
"There's still [-] for me to buy something." Zhang Xiaobao said indifferently.
Although he loves his son very much, Zhang's father and mother still feel sorry for the 1 yuan, 1 yuan!It's not one yuan or 100 yuan. They can't save so much money for ten years without eating or drinking.
☆、Gift ([-])
There was 10 yuan as a base, and when I heard that Xiaobao had spent 1 yuan, although Zhang's father and mother felt sorry for each other, they could still bear it. Thinking that the money was all earned by Xiaobao, they just When the flower was sold for 1 yuan less, the two of them immediately felt better after thinking about it.
Zhang's mother held Xiaobao's face and rubbed it, "My son is blessed. He can get so much money by digging up any orchid, but you are still young, so parents will keep the money for you first, and wait for you to grow up." I'll give it back to you, understand?" Zhang Dashan nodded aside.
Zhang Xiaobao sighed in his heart, he knew this would happen.
Nodding obediently, "I see." As he spoke, he handed the two boxes to his father and mother respectively, "Open it and have a look, do you like it?"
The husband and wife froze for a moment, Zhang Dashan opened it first, and inside was a silver men's automatic mechanical watch, which was bought through Master Ye, and only charged Xiaobao 5000 yuan, Xiaobao knew it must be more than this money, but Master Ye Uncle only said the price, and there was nothing he could do.
Inside Zhang's mother's box is a set of gold ornaments, a gold necklace, a pair of gold earrings, a gold ring and two gold bracelets, all made by experienced craftsmen in the capital, very delicate and beautiful.
The two of them touched the things in the box, and they couldn't help but the corners of their eyes were red. Zhang's mother cried out directly, but the smile at the corner of her mouth couldn't be wiped away. She hugged Xiaobao and said with a strong nasal voice: "My son Really filial."
Parents actually don't care how much money you give them or how expensive things you buy, as long as you have this intention, they will be very happy.
Just like Zhang Dashan and his wife, these two things may not add up to 1 yuan, but they are happier and more contented than getting the 10 yuan passbook just now.
"Mom, my son bought you something to make you happy, not to make you cry." He wiped away the tears on his mother's face clumsily, and Zhang Xiaobao's nose couldn't help but feel sore. He thanked God for allowing him to live again. Only once can make up for so many regrets.
"Mom, it's getting late, I'm going to bed first." Zhang Xiaobao said quickly, afraid that he couldn't help crying.
"Go." As soon as Zhang Xiaobao left, Zhang's mother cried again, even Zhang Dashan couldn't help shedding tears, even saying that her son's pain was not in vain.
Then, the two of them hid their belongings and passbooks. As for wearing them out, one was that they were reluctant to wear them out, fearing that they would ruin their work, and the other was also afraid that wearing them would be too ostentatious and cause trouble.
Early the next morning, Zhang Xiaobao went to grandma's house. He brought grandpa a pipe with a jade mouth, and bought grandma a gold ring and a thick gold necklace.
He once heard his grandma say that her natal family was not bad at that time. When she married into the Zhang family, the family gave them two gold ornaments, a ring and a necklace. The two pieces of gold jewelry were pawned, which saved the whole family from starving to death.
At that time, grandpa also said that when he had money, he would buy a thicker necklace for grandma. Unfortunately, grandma was unable to wear a gold chain until she passed away.
Seeing the gold ring and the gold necklace, Grandma Zhang obviously knew what it meant, she immediately became jealous, put her arms around Xiaobao, and said, "My life is worth it."
Grandpa wiped his glasses from the side, picked up the jade-mouthed pipe that Xiaobao bought for him, touched it several times, "Xiaobao, where did you get the money to buy these?" Although he didn't know the price of the pipe, the gold Chains and gold rings certainly don't come cheap.
Zhang Xiaobao told them that he bought it with the money from selling orchids, but he didn't say how much he sold.
In addition, he also bought things for the four older sisters, all of which were small items such as scarves that are popular in the capital.
Da Ya hugged her son, touched the silver lock around his neck, and then touched the scarf around her own neck, and said with a smile, "Why did you buy it for me?" Only 23 years old, if you are still in school, you may not have graduated from university, and you are also the age of beauty.
Sanya glanced at the scarf, then at the three sisters who were in Namei, and hummed softly in her heart, but she still took the scarf and went back into the house.
Zhang's mother glanced at Sanya and didn't care. Thinking of the set of jewelry that Xiaobai bought for her, the chain alone was almost half as thick as a pinky finger, and she couldn't help feeling proud. Those who are so filial and blessed to have her son.
After the gifts were delivered, Xiaobao went back to the house and took out the box Chen Xiangjie gave him. I don't know what he will give him?
"Huh?" It turned out to be a naive white porcelain pig.
After thinking about it for a long time, he really didn't understand why Chen Xiangjie gave him this. Xiao Bao tapped the pig's nose and put it back in the box.
He took out a book and looked at it out of focus.
At the end of August, Teacher Li came to inform Xiaobao No. [-] Middle School that the entrance exam was going to be held. He was afraid that the exhaustion of the car would affect his exam, so he planned to arrive at the county seat one day earlier.
It just so happened that Sanya was about to start school, so they went together, along with Zhang Dashan and Siya.
Now that the family has money, Zhang Dashan wants to let Siya take the exam together, if possible, he can go to junior high school with Xiaobao again.
Before getting in the car, the whole family came to see Xiaobao off, making him look like he was going to take the No. [-] Scholar exam. Xiaobao lay on the window of the car and waved, "Grandpa and grandma, hurry back, I'll be back after the holiday."
Among the few people, Siya had never been to the county seat. It was the first time she entered the city, and she felt that her eyes were not enough. Xiaobao explained to her, telling her what it was and what it was for, and even took out her pocket money. Qian bought her some gadgets, Zhang Dashan on the side didn't say much, but Sanya on the side deliberately walked a few steps slower, as if it was embarrassing to stand with Siya.
They first found a hostel to live in, Sanya and Zhang Dashan informed, and went straight to school with tuition and this month's living expenses.Take a day off and go to the No. [-] Middle School exam tomorrow. In the evening, Xiaobao lay on the window and looked at the street opposite. There are still old dilapidated houses behind that street. Now they are almost the price of cabbage, but after the demolition in [-], That became the county center.
Before he was reborn, he once heard a friend lament that a storefront in the west of the city costs more than 2 yuan per square meter, and renting a storefront costs more than 20 yuan a year. Just lie in bed.
He didn't 'know' now, but he didn't plan to buy it himself. His money had to be kept for other uses. He planned to let his parents buy the house here.
Early the next morning, Zhang Dashan woke Xiaobao up, rubbed his eyes, Siya got up early and sat beside his bed, squinted his eyes, and turned over abruptly.
After breakfast, Zhang Dashan and Teacher Li sent them to the school gate, and then waited for them outside.
He and Siya were not in the same examination room, so he didn't know what happened to Siya. When he opened the test paper, the questions were not too difficult. It only took him half an hour to finish, and then he began to check carefully.
The entrance examination was over in the morning, Zhang Xiaobao walked out of the school easily, and Siya hadn't come out yet, he found Zhang Dashan standing in a corner, looked around, but didn't see Teacher Li, ran up and asked: " Dad, where's the master?"
"Mr. Li said that he had something to do with his friends, so he left first. He also said that if we don't come back at night, we will go home tomorrow and don't wait for him." Zhang Dashan just finished speaking, and Siya came out with a frustrated face.
"How did Xiaobao do in the exam?" Seeing Siya's appearance, Zhang Dashan asked Zhang Xiaobao instead.
Compared with Zhang's mother, Zhang Dashan is actually better for his daughters, so now that the family has money, he is willing to let Sanya go to college and Siya to go to junior high school in the city.
But relatively speaking, he pays more attention to his son's grades. In his opinion, no matter how good a girl is at reading, it's better to be married.
"It's okay, what's wrong with Fourth Sister?" Zhang Xiaobao nodded, then asked Si Ya.
"I don't know how to answer a few questions at the end. I must be wrong." Siya said in a low voice, glanced at Zhang Dashan carefully, and let out a small sigh of relief seeing that he was not angry.
"I know the last few questions. Our school didn't teach them. It's normal if you don't know how to do it. As long as you do it right before, the score is enough for No. [-] Middle School." Zhang Xiaobao comforted the fourth sister.
After the exam, Zhang Dashan took the two children out to visit the county town. In fact, he himself rarely came, but since he came, he always bought something to go back.
In fact, they are all food. Taking this opportunity, Xiaobao also bought a set of clothes for the fourth sister. The fourth sister is the youngest daughter in the family, so she always wears her sister's leftovers. There are almost no new clothes. The clothes she is wearing now , is what the second sister left for the third sister, and then gave it to her.
Among the four elder sisters, the fourth elder sister is actually the most beautiful, but in the previous life, because one ear was deaf, it was a bit difficult to obey, and she didn't eat well, and she was not welcomed by her family all the time. Stuttering, with a timid look on her face, all the good looks she should have had were gone.
Now the fourth sister's ears are still good, and Xiaobao often gives her food to eat, so there is no need to do too much work. The most important thing is that Xiaobao has not bullied her in this life, and the whole person has grown slowly, and the whole facial features Her temperament came out, and she was wearing the pink skirt Xiaobao picked out, which made her skin a little paler.
"Fourth Sister is so beautiful." Nodding in satisfaction, Xiao Bao directly paid for the clothes.
Si Ya opened her mouth and looked sideways at Zhang Dashan. Seeing that he didn't say anything, she pinched the hem of her clothes a little shyly.
Put away the skirt, Siya touched it carefully, Xiaobao didn't know, she didn't have new clothes 'almost', or never had new clothes, this skirt is the only new clothes she has grown up, and it's still so beautiful , She didn't even dare to think about this before.
For the first time, Si Ya felt that it was nice to have a younger brother.
☆、Junior high school life
"Dashan, Dashan..." The village head of Zhangjia Village found Zhang Dashan, panted for a long time, and then continued: "Just now the county called, your Xiaobao and Siya both passed the No. 1 Middle School, and Xiaobao also passed the exam. No.[-], but to win glory for our village."
Zhang Dashan was taken aback when he heard it, and then he was ecstatic. He knew that Xiaobao of his family would definitely pass the exam, but he didn't expect to get No.1.
On the same day, several well-known people in the village were invited to have dinner at home. Zhang Dashan sat at the banquet with a flushed face, watching the majestic village head and secretary praise Xiaobao, he felt like he was going to float.
After drinking and eating, Zhang Xiaobao and his mother helped the drunk Zhang Dashan back to the house, and Zhang Dashan yelled, "I'm happy, happy..."
The next day, Teacher Li, who hadn't seen him for a few days, came back. When he saw Zhang Xiaobao, he boasted a few words, and immediately warned Zhang Xiaobao not to be complacent and complacent, and to work harder so as not to regress.
Zhang Xiaobao nodded and accepted humbly, he understands all these reasons, he is not a real child, he will not know the heights of the sky and the earth, his tail is up to the sky, not to mention other things, just brother Kong Siyang in the capital is standing there, As long as he thinks of him, let alone pride, he will immediately become filthy.
When he got home, Zhang Xiaobao heard his parents and grandparents discussing things there.
"I heard that the food in the school is very poor, especially the rice, steamed in a big pot, half-cooked, and the dishes, without oil, what if Xiaobao eats up his stomach and is hungry?" Grandma Zhang worried. Said.
Grandpa Zhang took two puffs of his cigarette, and tapped his pipe on the ground, "Doesn't the children in the city eat as usual, it should be fine."
Grandma Zhang immediately scowled, "That's not okay, Fengxian, why don't you follow to the city and rent a house there to take Xiaobao with you."
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was feasible, and Grandma Zhang became more motivated, and she talked more and more to the three of them, but the three of them nodded in agreement.
Xiaobao stood at the door and stopped, originally intending to stop him, but finally stopped suddenly, wondering how to persuade his parents to buy a house in the city, this is not a ready-made solution.
He simply entered the door and said, "I just wanted to go to the city, but I won't be able to eat mom's fried dishes. It would be the best if mom and you can go to the city together."
"I want to go too, but the work at home?" They are all planing food in the field. If they don't care about the work in the field, what do they eat at home?
"It's okay, let's go, I can do the work in the field by myself." Finally, Zhang Dashan made a decision.
Grandma Zhang nodded at the side, "It's okay, we will help when we're done. The work in the field is not as important as Xiaobao's. When Xiaobao is admitted to university, we don't need to plant the land anymore. We can just enjoy the happiness at home."
The next day, Zhang's mother, Zhang Xiaobao and Siya went to the county town together, and first found a guest house to live in. After Zhang's mother paid the money, she kept complaining about how expensive it was when she returned to the room.
Zhang Xiaobao grinned in his heart, of course, he deliberately took Mama Zhang to the most expensive guest house in the county, of course it was expensive.
"Mom, everything in the county is expensive, and the rent is also expensive. Otherwise, I can live on campus." Zhang Xiaobao said seemingly unintentionally.
"What are you talking about! For you, spending some money is nothing." Zhang's mother gave Zhang Xiaobao a chestnut.
Zhang Xiaobao rolled his eyes in his heart, it was obviously his money, but it was taken in ignorance.
"By the way, Mom! I asked last time that renting a house costs more than a dozen yuan a month, and buying a house in the west of the city is only a few hundred. Why don't we just buy a house, so that our family can still have a house in the city? Oh, how face-saving." Zhang Xiaobao directly compared the most expensive rent with the cheapest house price, and there was a huge gap immediately.
Although Zhang's mother has never been to school, she can do calculations. Renting a house costs more than ten yuan a month, more than 100 a year, and three or four hundred in three years. If buying a house only costs a few hundred, it is better to buy a house. .
The rented house is someone else's, and the rent is paid for nothing every month, and what you buy is your own. It's not like the family has no money now. If they bought a house in the city, they would be considered city residents.
The more she thought about it, the more beautiful she felt. Zhang's mother immediately decided to go and see the house, and if it was good, she would buy one.
I didn't rest anymore, and after lunch, I asked Xiaobao to take her to the west of the city to look at the houses. There are really hundreds of houses, but they are kind of dilapidated, and there are thousands of good yards. Zhang's mother stared Xiaobao glanced at it, and planned to go to the nearest place to No. [-] Middle School to see if there was any rental.
"Hey! Mom, I think this is pretty good, so I'll buy it!" Xiaobao said, pointing to the 2000-odd 'high-priced' yard.
"Such an expensive house, of course it is cost-effective to rent." Zhang's mother said.
"Mom, it's not that we don't have money. Let's buy it. If my classmates ask me, I can tell me whether I'm from the city or not." I feel that people in the city have no land and no security. In short, it is very contradictory.
Zhang's mother hesitated for a long time, and she took Zhang Xiaobao to see the rented house. Those close to the school had to be shared with others. The rent of a single family was too high. After thinking about it all night, Zhang's mother gritted her teeth and spent the money reluctantly. Call the village chief's house and discuss with Zhang's father.
For the 10 yuan in the family, Zhang Dashan and Zhang's mother planned to build a house at home when Xiaobao was in high school, and kept the rest for Xiaobao to go to college, so they didn't dare to move it.
Now that I want to buy a house, it’s still in the city. Of course it’s better to ask Zhang’s mother to say it’s better in the village. After all, Zhang’s father is a man, and his vision will be better. He thinks that Xiaobao will definitely stay in the city when he is admitted to university, so he decides to buy the house. After hanging up the phone, I took the afternoon bus to the city to send money to Mama Zhang.
After buying the 'expensive' yard, Zhang Xiaobao forced Zhang Dashan to buy the two dilapidated yards. Although it was only worth a few hundred yuan, it would be a waste for Zhang Dashan who was used to saving money. His son has been well-behaved in recent years, Zhang Dashan will really slap him.
"Dad, just buy it as a homestead!" Zhang Xiaobao almost fell to the ground and rolled, but in the end, Zhang's mother couldn't see it, and she felt sorry for her son, saying that Xiaobao got the money, so she bought it.
Looking at the three real estate certificates, Xiaobao sighed in his heart, in order to make money, is it easy for him?
After buying the house, it's time for Zhang Xiaobao to go to school. In his previous life, he only went to junior high school in the countryside, so there were no classmates he knew here. That's fine, none of the friends he made in his previous life was on the right track, so it's better not to make any friends.
The students in this era are very simple and hardworking, and they concentrate on studying. Boys and girls seldom talk alone, because they are afraid of others talking nonsense.
Speaking of which, Zhang Lili, the girl who sat in front of him in elementary school with a ponytail, was also in No. [-] Middle School and was in the same class as him.
She is a very shy person. Seeing Zhang Xiaobao smiled shyly, she quickly lowered her head and sat down in her seat. Zhang Xiaobao nodded at her. If she hadn't been so shy and shy, she wouldn't have committed suicide by jumping off the building.
The homeroom teacher was a very young person. When he entered the door, he introduced himself, and then asked the students to go up and introduce themselves in turn.
"My name is Zhang Xiaobao. I am 13 years old. I like to read and play..." All the students were taken aback when they heard this, and then laughed.
Zhang Xiaobao looked at them and the teacher innocently, what did he say?Let them laugh like this, are people laughing so low now?
In this way, they officially entered junior high school life.
☆, high school entrance examination
"Xiaobao, I have your letter."
Hearing Mama Zhang's cry, Xiao Bao put down his brush and went out of the study room. In fact, it was not just a letter, but also a small box accompanying the letter.
Open the box first, and saw a naive little pig without any surprise, smiled, and then opened the envelope.
"It's a letter from Senior Brother Chen." Seeing Zhang's mother looking at him, Xiaobao refolded the letter and took it back in the envelope. "He said that he might go abroad to study next semester, and it will be more troublesome to contact in the future."
"Study abroad?" Mother Zhang was surprised, "It costs a lot of money to go abroad, right?"
"Well, I didn't ask the specifics, maybe it will cost 10,000+." Zhang Xiaobao glanced at his mother, then turned and went back to the room to continue reading. The high school entrance examination will be in a few days, so he can't take it lightly.
The senior high school entrance examination was nearly a month earlier than the usual final exam, and there was no work at home, so Zhang Dashan rushed to the city. Although he bought a house in the city, Zhang Dashan and his mother still liked their hometown.
Zhang Xiaobao is getting older. When he was in the second year of junior high school, Zhang Dashan decided to build a house at home. Zhang Xiaobao wanted to persuade him, but in the end he didn’t say anything. It is a matter of face, and the second is because the hometown is the root, and fallen leaves return to the root. This is a history passed down by the Chinese for thousands of years, and it has long been engraved in the blood of the Chinese people.
Now there are three houses in the county town. After [-], when they are demolished, they will be able to pay for a lot of houses. For Zhang Dashan and the others, they will live in one house and rent out the rest. These are enough for them to spend.
Zhang Xiaobao still felt very heartbroken seeing that instead of buying a house at the price of cabbage in the county, he would spend tens of thousands of dollars to build a house in the countryside, but the 35 in his hand still had other uses, so he couldn’t move it, otherwise he really planned to give it away. All the money in the house bought this piece of house.
In 1990, life had begun to gradually improve, but Zhang Xiaobao’s family was still the first to build buildings in four or five surrounding villages. In addition, grandparents felt very honored when they went out.
The transportation in my hometown is inconvenient, and sometimes I even use bullock carts to pull things. In this way, the time for building the house is greatly delayed. It was not until the beginning of this year that the house was completed. A total of more than 6 yuan was spent on labor and miscellaneous expenses. This is just an empty shell, and the home has not been decorated at all.
Then only a rough layer of cement was painted on the exterior wall, and only the first and second floors were painted inside the house. After the simple decoration, it cost more than 1 yuan.
The house was built thanks to Zhang Xiaobao’s 10 yuan. When he bought a house in the city, he spent nearly 10 yuan. Last year, Sanya was admitted to university, which also required a lot of money. , the [-] yuan will be bottomed out. If Sanya can earn living expenses by herself, Zhang's mother would not let her continue her studies.
Zhang Xiaobao was also a little surprised. At first he only thought that forty to fifty thousand would be enough, but it turned out that an empty shell would cost so much, more than 8, and how many houses can be bought in the county. Forget it, the houses are already gone. Once it’s done, I don’t want to think about it anymore.
"Xiaobao, Dad has fixed the room for you, and you can live in it when you get home after the high school entrance examination." Zhang Dashan said happily.
The first and second floors have been renovated, and when Xiaobao finishes his high school entrance examination and gets good grades, he will move into a new house and have a double happiness.
Zhang Xiaobao nodded, "Sure, when will our family move to a new house?" Zhang Xiaobao took two pears, one for Siya and one for himself. They were grown in grandma's yard. Every year when they picked pears, they brought them A basket for Xiaobao.
"Just know how to eat. If you don't get good grades, don't go to high school." Zhang's mother just came out, saw Zhang Xiaobao and Siya eating pears there, and waited for Siya to say.
Erya had a date last year. He was a teacher at the same school, a native of the county seat, his parents were dual-employed, and he was the only child. Xiaobao met him twice. He was very polite and treated his second sister very well. , at least for now, no matter how many there are, Xiaobao won't be able to see them.
Originally, the man’s family objected when they knew that their son had found a country girl, but later they learned that their family not only bought a house in the city, but also wanted to build a house in the country, so they never objected again.
Zhang Xiaobao originally thought that having such a snobbish father-in-law would treat the second sister badly, but after seeing the way the second sister got along with the future second brother-in-law, he worried about the future for the future brother-in-law instead.
They have already made a marriage contract, and they will get married this year. The family will lose a salary, and Zhang's mother is even more irritable, which is why she is angry with Siya.
"Mom, we are going to take the high school entrance examination in a few days, don't scare us!" Xiaobao stood up, a head taller than Mama Zhang, hugged Mama Zhang from behind, and said with a smile.
Zhang's mother turned around and tapped Zhang Xiaobao's head lightly, "How old is he still like this, what does he look like?" In fact, she was very happy that her son was close to her.
The weekend is over, and I went to school early the next morning. The students were not in the mood to play around, and they were all nervously reviewing. The countdown to the senior high school entrance examination was written on the blackboard at the back of the classroom, which added to the tense atmosphere of the high school entrance examination.
"Xiaobao, why aren't you nervous at all?" Wei Hua held a handwritten copy of ancient poems on his back, and when he saw Zhang Xiaobao wandering in, he couldn't help asking.
"Wei Hua, you are so stupid! Xiaobao is the first in age every time. I'm afraid that I will be miserable in the middle school entrance exam. My dad can tell me that if I don't do well in the exam this time, I will repeat the grade." A fat boy Sitting next to Zhang Xiaobao with a mournful face.
He is Xiaobao's tablemate for three years in junior high school, Wu Jianxing, his father belongs to the group that first went into business, and was also the first group to initiate. Now he is a well-known rich man in their county, and he expects nothing from his only son. Very high, he will enter Xiaobao's top class, because his father has a lot of contacts and spent a lot of money to let him in, but Wu Jianxing is a person who doesn't like to study, and he is often scolded and beaten.
"Then why don't you hurry up and review, it's better to hold Buddha's feet temporarily than not at all." Zhang Xiaobao gave Wu Jianxing a sideways glance. According to the 21st century, this person is a foodie + a second-hander. When it comes to learning, I immediately stopped.
"The senior high school entrance examination is just four days away. Even if I want to hug my feet, it's too late. This time, I'm really dead." Wu Jianxing lay down on the desk weakly.
This year is not like the future, repeating grades if you fail the exam or encounter something. In this era, especially in No. [-] middle school, repeating a grade is simply a 'stain' in life, but people will look down on it.
"I have a notebook with key points, would you like to read it?" Zhang Xiaobao didn't just practice handwriting at home these days, he also copied out what he thought were the key points, and then answered them carefully.
"Yes, of course." Wu Jianxing's eyes sparkled, and he immediately regained his anger.
Zhang Xiaobao shook his head and smiled, handed him the notebook, and then took out many papers to do.
It's almost time for the senior high school entrance examination, and the teacher will no longer give lessons like before, but will let all the students do the questions and explain some key points.
This time the examination room was in No. [-] Middle School. It was better than going to another school. On the same day, he entered the school with Si Ya, but it was a pity that he was not assigned to a classroom this time.
The senior high school entrance examination will take two days, and these two days when Xiaobao and Siya go home, their parents dare not even speak loudly, for fear that the loudness will scare away the knowledge in the two children's minds.
In fact, the more this is the case, the greater the pressure on them, but it's okay for Zhang Xiaobao, he has learned almost the same high school courses now, so he really doesn't need to worry about the high school entrance examination.
It's just that Siya can't do it, the whole person is very nervous, Xiaobao watched from the side, thinking that if this continues, he will probably faint in the examination room.
No matter in the previous life or in this life, Xiaobao has spent the longest time with Siya. Naturally, among the few older sisters, the affection for her is also the best. Of course, I don't want the fourth sister to fail in the high school entrance examination, otherwise, my mother may really be unhappy. The fourth sister is not allowed to go to high school.
But for exams, it's useless to be comforted by others. She can only rely on herself. The only thing Xiaobao can help is to cheer her up.
"Xiaobao, don't worry, I will definitely go to the same high school as you." Seeing her younger brother cheering her on and telling jokes to make her happy, Siya showed a sweet smile.
Siya's aptitude is the worst of the five children in the family, but she is the hardest working, which even the first three sisters have to admit.
After the exam, Zhang Xiaobao, who had been worried that Si Ya would faint, developed a high fever and fell into a coma for three days, almost scaring his family to death.
☆, old monk
He had a fever without warning. When he went to the hospital, the doctor couldn't explain why. He just gave him an antipyretic injection, and then let Zhang's mother rub alcohol to cool down.
Three days later, just when the doctor thought that Zhang Xiaobao might not be able to survive, he didn't expect him to retreat slowly. At night, Zhang Xiaobao, who had been burned for three days, finally opened his eyes, his throat was dry and burning, and he looked at the eyes beside him. The red parents, with sore eyes, couldn't help but shed tears.
"It can be regarded as awake." Zhang's mother's voice was a little hoarse, seeing Zhang Xiaobao opened his mouth, she quickly poured a glass of water for him.
After drinking two glasses of water in a row, the burning sensation in my throat was better, "Mom, I'm fine." In fact, my head was still a little dizzy, and my whole body was so sore as if it had been run over by a car.
"It's fine, it's fine." Zhang's mother touched Zhang Xiaobao's forehead, and it really wasn't too hot. "Are you hungry? Mom is going to get you a bowl of porridge." After finishing speaking, she left in a hurry.
Zhang Dashan didn't say a word after waking up from Xiaobao, but his face was obviously happy, "Do you want to drink water, I'll pour it for you."
"No need, Dad, go to rest quickly, don't let me get well, you are sick again." Looking at his father's haggard face, Zhang Xiaobao felt sour in his heart.
"Nonsense, I'm as strong as a cow, so there's nothing wrong with me." Having said that, Zhang Dashan was indeed tired. He hadn't closed his eyes for three days, and was frightened all day. Not only was he tired, but his heart was even more tired. Once people relax, they will be more tired.
After urging for a long time, Zhang Dashan and Zhang's mother held each other's hands and left with confidence until Mama Zhang came back with Erya and watched Zhang Xiaobao drink a bowl of porridge, leaving Erya here to take care of Xiaobao.
Zhang Xiaobao was also a little tired. After his parents left and said a few words to his second sister, he fell asleep again in a daze. When he woke up again, it was already the next morning. with him.
I remember that he also had a high fever in his previous life, and he was fine after waking up three days later. It was because of this that his parents doted on him more and more.
He has changed a lot in this life, and he never expected to suffer from this serious illness.
Like the previous life, when the fever subsided, he was fine. He woke up after a nap, and he was able to get up immediately. After the doctor's examination, he also said that he was completely fine. He could just go home and rest more. With the conclusion of professionals, Finally, my parents were completely relieved.
Zhang Xiaobao’s illness looks really dangerous this time. Grandpa Zhang and Grandma Zhang are getting old, and Zhang Dashan and the others dare not tell their hometown. They didn’t dare to tell them until Xiaobao recovered now. After buying it, I immediately took Xiaobao back to the countryside. It is estimated that the two elders have asked people from the same village to drive them to the county town with a tractor.
Just after returning home, Zhang Xiaobao was hugged by Grandma Zhang and touched him here and there. After making sure he was fine, he cried, "You didn't tell us that my grandson is so seriously ill. You want me." Fate!"
"Grandma, I'm really fine. It's just a cold and a little fever. It's not serious at all." Xiao Bao comforted grandma softly while wiping her tears.
Helping grandma back home, Xiaobao kept telling jokes to make her old man happy, and from time to time he talked about his going to school, and finally coquettishly said that he wanted to eat her cooking, and finally coaxed the old man to do it with his second daughter-in-law The meal is gone.
Zhang Xiaobao fell ill after the high school entrance examination. He stayed at home for one day and was hospitalized for four days. Today is the sixth day, and he will get his report card tomorrow. The grown-ups were all terrified. If you don’t get any grades, if you lose your life, it’s useless even if you win the first prize.
What's more, the Zhang family only has one seedling, if something really happens, the Zhang family will be left behind.
As soon as I think about it, Grandpa Zhang and Grandma Zhang are scared again, especially Grandma Zhang, who will not let go of Zhang Xiaobao's hand, which means that in the morning, he must take him to the temple to worship Buddha and pray for safety. agreed.
In his previous life, he seemed to have been there after he got sick, but at that time Zhang Xiaobao loved to play and didn't believe in any gods and Buddhas. He just went to deal with it because he couldn't stand grandma's nagging.
In this life, Zhang Xiaobao doesn't think so, people can come back from the dead, so he also believes in those weird things.
According to the elders in the village, this temple is the most efficacious in their township. During the Republic of China, many people from the city traveled over mountains and mountains to worship Buddha. But later, due to various reasons, the temple failed, but the local village The people still believed in this temple, so it was not abandoned.
Today is not a festival, and there are not many people who come to worship Buddha. Grandma Zhang carried a basket of incense candles and yellow paper, and led Xiaobao into the main hall. kneel down.
Zhang Xiaobao bowed three times devoutly, then got up, and followed Grandma Zhang out of the temple.
Before going out, he saw a very strange
"This time I went to the capital, besides seeing the master, I also sold an orchid." He said and handed over the passbook.
"Orchid? What is that?" Zhang's mother was a little puzzled, took the passbook and opened it, and then she was stunned for a long time before stammering: "Da... Dashan, take a look, Did I see a few more zeros in my eyes?"
"Hiss!" Zhang Dashan took a look at the passbook and gasped, "This... is it ten yuan?"
"It's one hundred thousand." Zhang Xiaobao waited for them to wait for a while, and said with certainty, "I dug an orchid in the bamboo forest, and I thought it was beautiful, so I showed it to the master. The master recognized it as a very rare species. I just happened to be going to the capital, so I took it there to see if anyone wanted it. A total of one orchid and a few sprouts sold for 11 yuan, all of which were real."
Fortunately, I only told them 11. If it was more than 100 million, they would all have a heart attack.
"My God." Zhang's mother held her chest and waited for a while before she found her tongue. "A single flower is worth so much money. I think it has become a genius."
"Last time I heard that a grass is worth millions! What do you know?" Zhang Dashan came back to his senses, and immediately despised Zhang's mother, showing that he was very knowledgeable.
Zhang's mother gave him a sideways look, and didn't care about it with him, "Didn't you say 11? Why is it only [-]?"
"There's still [-] for me to buy something." Zhang Xiaobao said indifferently.
Although he loves his son very much, Zhang's father and mother still feel sorry for the 1 yuan, 1 yuan!It's not one yuan or 100 yuan. They can't save so much money for ten years without eating or drinking.
☆、Gift ([-])
There was 10 yuan as a base, and when I heard that Xiaobao had spent 1 yuan, although Zhang's father and mother felt sorry for each other, they could still bear it. Thinking that the money was all earned by Xiaobao, they just When the flower was sold for 1 yuan less, the two of them immediately felt better after thinking about it.
Zhang's mother held Xiaobao's face and rubbed it, "My son is blessed. He can get so much money by digging up any orchid, but you are still young, so parents will keep the money for you first, and wait for you to grow up." I'll give it back to you, understand?" Zhang Dashan nodded aside.
Zhang Xiaobao sighed in his heart, he knew this would happen.
Nodding obediently, "I see." As he spoke, he handed the two boxes to his father and mother respectively, "Open it and have a look, do you like it?"
The husband and wife froze for a moment, Zhang Dashan opened it first, and inside was a silver men's automatic mechanical watch, which was bought through Master Ye, and only charged Xiaobao 5000 yuan, Xiaobao knew it must be more than this money, but Master Ye Uncle only said the price, and there was nothing he could do.
Inside Zhang's mother's box is a set of gold ornaments, a gold necklace, a pair of gold earrings, a gold ring and two gold bracelets, all made by experienced craftsmen in the capital, very delicate and beautiful.
The two of them touched the things in the box, and they couldn't help but the corners of their eyes were red. Zhang's mother cried out directly, but the smile at the corner of her mouth couldn't be wiped away. She hugged Xiaobao and said with a strong nasal voice: "My son Really filial."
Parents actually don't care how much money you give them or how expensive things you buy, as long as you have this intention, they will be very happy.
Just like Zhang Dashan and his wife, these two things may not add up to 1 yuan, but they are happier and more contented than getting the 10 yuan passbook just now.
"Mom, my son bought you something to make you happy, not to make you cry." He wiped away the tears on his mother's face clumsily, and Zhang Xiaobao's nose couldn't help but feel sore. He thanked God for allowing him to live again. Only once can make up for so many regrets.
"Mom, it's getting late, I'm going to bed first." Zhang Xiaobao said quickly, afraid that he couldn't help crying.
"Go." As soon as Zhang Xiaobao left, Zhang's mother cried again, even Zhang Dashan couldn't help shedding tears, even saying that her son's pain was not in vain.
Then, the two of them hid their belongings and passbooks. As for wearing them out, one was that they were reluctant to wear them out, fearing that they would ruin their work, and the other was also afraid that wearing them would be too ostentatious and cause trouble.
Early the next morning, Zhang Xiaobao went to grandma's house. He brought grandpa a pipe with a jade mouth, and bought grandma a gold ring and a thick gold necklace.
He once heard his grandma say that her natal family was not bad at that time. When she married into the Zhang family, the family gave them two gold ornaments, a ring and a necklace. The two pieces of gold jewelry were pawned, which saved the whole family from starving to death.
At that time, grandpa also said that when he had money, he would buy a thicker necklace for grandma. Unfortunately, grandma was unable to wear a gold chain until she passed away.
Seeing the gold ring and the gold necklace, Grandma Zhang obviously knew what it meant, she immediately became jealous, put her arms around Xiaobao, and said, "My life is worth it."
Grandpa wiped his glasses from the side, picked up the jade-mouthed pipe that Xiaobao bought for him, touched it several times, "Xiaobao, where did you get the money to buy these?" Although he didn't know the price of the pipe, the gold Chains and gold rings certainly don't come cheap.
Zhang Xiaobao told them that he bought it with the money from selling orchids, but he didn't say how much he sold.
In addition, he also bought things for the four older sisters, all of which were small items such as scarves that are popular in the capital.
Da Ya hugged her son, touched the silver lock around his neck, and then touched the scarf around her own neck, and said with a smile, "Why did you buy it for me?" Only 23 years old, if you are still in school, you may not have graduated from university, and you are also the age of beauty.
Sanya glanced at the scarf, then at the three sisters who were in Namei, and hummed softly in her heart, but she still took the scarf and went back into the house.
Zhang's mother glanced at Sanya and didn't care. Thinking of the set of jewelry that Xiaobai bought for her, the chain alone was almost half as thick as a pinky finger, and she couldn't help feeling proud. Those who are so filial and blessed to have her son.
After the gifts were delivered, Xiaobao went back to the house and took out the box Chen Xiangjie gave him. I don't know what he will give him?
"Huh?" It turned out to be a naive white porcelain pig.
After thinking about it for a long time, he really didn't understand why Chen Xiangjie gave him this. Xiao Bao tapped the pig's nose and put it back in the box.
He took out a book and looked at it out of focus.
At the end of August, Teacher Li came to inform Xiaobao No. [-] Middle School that the entrance exam was going to be held. He was afraid that the exhaustion of the car would affect his exam, so he planned to arrive at the county seat one day earlier.
It just so happened that Sanya was about to start school, so they went together, along with Zhang Dashan and Siya.
Now that the family has money, Zhang Dashan wants to let Siya take the exam together, if possible, he can go to junior high school with Xiaobao again.
Before getting in the car, the whole family came to see Xiaobao off, making him look like he was going to take the No. [-] Scholar exam. Xiaobao lay on the window of the car and waved, "Grandpa and grandma, hurry back, I'll be back after the holiday."
Among the few people, Siya had never been to the county seat. It was the first time she entered the city, and she felt that her eyes were not enough. Xiaobao explained to her, telling her what it was and what it was for, and even took out her pocket money. Qian bought her some gadgets, Zhang Dashan on the side didn't say much, but Sanya on the side deliberately walked a few steps slower, as if it was embarrassing to stand with Siya.
They first found a hostel to live in, Sanya and Zhang Dashan informed, and went straight to school with tuition and this month's living expenses.Take a day off and go to the No. [-] Middle School exam tomorrow. In the evening, Xiaobao lay on the window and looked at the street opposite. There are still old dilapidated houses behind that street. Now they are almost the price of cabbage, but after the demolition in [-], That became the county center.
Before he was reborn, he once heard a friend lament that a storefront in the west of the city costs more than 2 yuan per square meter, and renting a storefront costs more than 20 yuan a year. Just lie in bed.
He didn't 'know' now, but he didn't plan to buy it himself. His money had to be kept for other uses. He planned to let his parents buy the house here.
Early the next morning, Zhang Dashan woke Xiaobao up, rubbed his eyes, Siya got up early and sat beside his bed, squinted his eyes, and turned over abruptly.
After breakfast, Zhang Dashan and Teacher Li sent them to the school gate, and then waited for them outside.
He and Siya were not in the same examination room, so he didn't know what happened to Siya. When he opened the test paper, the questions were not too difficult. It only took him half an hour to finish, and then he began to check carefully.
The entrance examination was over in the morning, Zhang Xiaobao walked out of the school easily, and Siya hadn't come out yet, he found Zhang Dashan standing in a corner, looked around, but didn't see Teacher Li, ran up and asked: " Dad, where's the master?"
"Mr. Li said that he had something to do with his friends, so he left first. He also said that if we don't come back at night, we will go home tomorrow and don't wait for him." Zhang Dashan just finished speaking, and Siya came out with a frustrated face.
"How did Xiaobao do in the exam?" Seeing Siya's appearance, Zhang Dashan asked Zhang Xiaobao instead.
Compared with Zhang's mother, Zhang Dashan is actually better for his daughters, so now that the family has money, he is willing to let Sanya go to college and Siya to go to junior high school in the city.
But relatively speaking, he pays more attention to his son's grades. In his opinion, no matter how good a girl is at reading, it's better to be married.
"It's okay, what's wrong with Fourth Sister?" Zhang Xiaobao nodded, then asked Si Ya.
"I don't know how to answer a few questions at the end. I must be wrong." Siya said in a low voice, glanced at Zhang Dashan carefully, and let out a small sigh of relief seeing that he was not angry.
"I know the last few questions. Our school didn't teach them. It's normal if you don't know how to do it. As long as you do it right before, the score is enough for No. [-] Middle School." Zhang Xiaobao comforted the fourth sister.
After the exam, Zhang Dashan took the two children out to visit the county town. In fact, he himself rarely came, but since he came, he always bought something to go back.
In fact, they are all food. Taking this opportunity, Xiaobao also bought a set of clothes for the fourth sister. The fourth sister is the youngest daughter in the family, so she always wears her sister's leftovers. There are almost no new clothes. The clothes she is wearing now , is what the second sister left for the third sister, and then gave it to her.
Among the four elder sisters, the fourth elder sister is actually the most beautiful, but in the previous life, because one ear was deaf, it was a bit difficult to obey, and she didn't eat well, and she was not welcomed by her family all the time. Stuttering, with a timid look on her face, all the good looks she should have had were gone.
Now the fourth sister's ears are still good, and Xiaobao often gives her food to eat, so there is no need to do too much work. The most important thing is that Xiaobao has not bullied her in this life, and the whole person has grown slowly, and the whole facial features Her temperament came out, and she was wearing the pink skirt Xiaobao picked out, which made her skin a little paler.
"Fourth Sister is so beautiful." Nodding in satisfaction, Xiao Bao directly paid for the clothes.
Si Ya opened her mouth and looked sideways at Zhang Dashan. Seeing that he didn't say anything, she pinched the hem of her clothes a little shyly.
Put away the skirt, Siya touched it carefully, Xiaobao didn't know, she didn't have new clothes 'almost', or never had new clothes, this skirt is the only new clothes she has grown up, and it's still so beautiful , She didn't even dare to think about this before.
For the first time, Si Ya felt that it was nice to have a younger brother.
☆、Junior high school life
"Dashan, Dashan..." The village head of Zhangjia Village found Zhang Dashan, panted for a long time, and then continued: "Just now the county called, your Xiaobao and Siya both passed the No. 1 Middle School, and Xiaobao also passed the exam. No.[-], but to win glory for our village."
Zhang Dashan was taken aback when he heard it, and then he was ecstatic. He knew that Xiaobao of his family would definitely pass the exam, but he didn't expect to get No.1.
On the same day, several well-known people in the village were invited to have dinner at home. Zhang Dashan sat at the banquet with a flushed face, watching the majestic village head and secretary praise Xiaobao, he felt like he was going to float.
After drinking and eating, Zhang Xiaobao and his mother helped the drunk Zhang Dashan back to the house, and Zhang Dashan yelled, "I'm happy, happy..."
The next day, Teacher Li, who hadn't seen him for a few days, came back. When he saw Zhang Xiaobao, he boasted a few words, and immediately warned Zhang Xiaobao not to be complacent and complacent, and to work harder so as not to regress.
Zhang Xiaobao nodded and accepted humbly, he understands all these reasons, he is not a real child, he will not know the heights of the sky and the earth, his tail is up to the sky, not to mention other things, just brother Kong Siyang in the capital is standing there, As long as he thinks of him, let alone pride, he will immediately become filthy.
When he got home, Zhang Xiaobao heard his parents and grandparents discussing things there.
"I heard that the food in the school is very poor, especially the rice, steamed in a big pot, half-cooked, and the dishes, without oil, what if Xiaobao eats up his stomach and is hungry?" Grandma Zhang worried. Said.
Grandpa Zhang took two puffs of his cigarette, and tapped his pipe on the ground, "Doesn't the children in the city eat as usual, it should be fine."
Grandma Zhang immediately scowled, "That's not okay, Fengxian, why don't you follow to the city and rent a house there to take Xiaobao with you."
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was feasible, and Grandma Zhang became more motivated, and she talked more and more to the three of them, but the three of them nodded in agreement.
Xiaobao stood at the door and stopped, originally intending to stop him, but finally stopped suddenly, wondering how to persuade his parents to buy a house in the city, this is not a ready-made solution.
He simply entered the door and said, "I just wanted to go to the city, but I won't be able to eat mom's fried dishes. It would be the best if mom and you can go to the city together."
"I want to go too, but the work at home?" They are all planing food in the field. If they don't care about the work in the field, what do they eat at home?
"It's okay, let's go, I can do the work in the field by myself." Finally, Zhang Dashan made a decision.
Grandma Zhang nodded at the side, "It's okay, we will help when we're done. The work in the field is not as important as Xiaobao's. When Xiaobao is admitted to university, we don't need to plant the land anymore. We can just enjoy the happiness at home."
The next day, Zhang's mother, Zhang Xiaobao and Siya went to the county town together, and first found a guest house to live in. After Zhang's mother paid the money, she kept complaining about how expensive it was when she returned to the room.
Zhang Xiaobao grinned in his heart, of course, he deliberately took Mama Zhang to the most expensive guest house in the county, of course it was expensive.
"Mom, everything in the county is expensive, and the rent is also expensive. Otherwise, I can live on campus." Zhang Xiaobao said seemingly unintentionally.
"What are you talking about! For you, spending some money is nothing." Zhang's mother gave Zhang Xiaobao a chestnut.
Zhang Xiaobao rolled his eyes in his heart, it was obviously his money, but it was taken in ignorance.
"By the way, Mom! I asked last time that renting a house costs more than a dozen yuan a month, and buying a house in the west of the city is only a few hundred. Why don't we just buy a house, so that our family can still have a house in the city? Oh, how face-saving." Zhang Xiaobao directly compared the most expensive rent with the cheapest house price, and there was a huge gap immediately.
Although Zhang's mother has never been to school, she can do calculations. Renting a house costs more than ten yuan a month, more than 100 a year, and three or four hundred in three years. If buying a house only costs a few hundred, it is better to buy a house. .
The rented house is someone else's, and the rent is paid for nothing every month, and what you buy is your own. It's not like the family has no money now. If they bought a house in the city, they would be considered city residents.
The more she thought about it, the more beautiful she felt. Zhang's mother immediately decided to go and see the house, and if it was good, she would buy one.
I didn't rest anymore, and after lunch, I asked Xiaobao to take her to the west of the city to look at the houses. There are really hundreds of houses, but they are kind of dilapidated, and there are thousands of good yards. Zhang's mother stared Xiaobao glanced at it, and planned to go to the nearest place to No. [-] Middle School to see if there was any rental.
"Hey! Mom, I think this is pretty good, so I'll buy it!" Xiaobao said, pointing to the 2000-odd 'high-priced' yard.
"Such an expensive house, of course it is cost-effective to rent." Zhang's mother said.
"Mom, it's not that we don't have money. Let's buy it. If my classmates ask me, I can tell me whether I'm from the city or not." I feel that people in the city have no land and no security. In short, it is very contradictory.
Zhang's mother hesitated for a long time, and she took Zhang Xiaobao to see the rented house. Those close to the school had to be shared with others. The rent of a single family was too high. After thinking about it all night, Zhang's mother gritted her teeth and spent the money reluctantly. Call the village chief's house and discuss with Zhang's father.
For the 10 yuan in the family, Zhang Dashan and Zhang's mother planned to build a house at home when Xiaobao was in high school, and kept the rest for Xiaobao to go to college, so they didn't dare to move it.
Now that I want to buy a house, it’s still in the city. Of course it’s better to ask Zhang’s mother to say it’s better in the village. After all, Zhang’s father is a man, and his vision will be better. He thinks that Xiaobao will definitely stay in the city when he is admitted to university, so he decides to buy the house. After hanging up the phone, I took the afternoon bus to the city to send money to Mama Zhang.
After buying the 'expensive' yard, Zhang Xiaobao forced Zhang Dashan to buy the two dilapidated yards. Although it was only worth a few hundred yuan, it would be a waste for Zhang Dashan who was used to saving money. His son has been well-behaved in recent years, Zhang Dashan will really slap him.
"Dad, just buy it as a homestead!" Zhang Xiaobao almost fell to the ground and rolled, but in the end, Zhang's mother couldn't see it, and she felt sorry for her son, saying that Xiaobao got the money, so she bought it.
Looking at the three real estate certificates, Xiaobao sighed in his heart, in order to make money, is it easy for him?
After buying the house, it's time for Zhang Xiaobao to go to school. In his previous life, he only went to junior high school in the countryside, so there were no classmates he knew here. That's fine, none of the friends he made in his previous life was on the right track, so it's better not to make any friends.
The students in this era are very simple and hardworking, and they concentrate on studying. Boys and girls seldom talk alone, because they are afraid of others talking nonsense.
Speaking of which, Zhang Lili, the girl who sat in front of him in elementary school with a ponytail, was also in No. [-] Middle School and was in the same class as him.
She is a very shy person. Seeing Zhang Xiaobao smiled shyly, she quickly lowered her head and sat down in her seat. Zhang Xiaobao nodded at her. If she hadn't been so shy and shy, she wouldn't have committed suicide by jumping off the building.
The homeroom teacher was a very young person. When he entered the door, he introduced himself, and then asked the students to go up and introduce themselves in turn.
"My name is Zhang Xiaobao. I am 13 years old. I like to read and play..." All the students were taken aback when they heard this, and then laughed.
Zhang Xiaobao looked at them and the teacher innocently, what did he say?Let them laugh like this, are people laughing so low now?
In this way, they officially entered junior high school life.
☆, high school entrance examination
"Xiaobao, I have your letter."
Hearing Mama Zhang's cry, Xiao Bao put down his brush and went out of the study room. In fact, it was not just a letter, but also a small box accompanying the letter.
Open the box first, and saw a naive little pig without any surprise, smiled, and then opened the envelope.
"It's a letter from Senior Brother Chen." Seeing Zhang's mother looking at him, Xiaobao refolded the letter and took it back in the envelope. "He said that he might go abroad to study next semester, and it will be more troublesome to contact in the future."
"Study abroad?" Mother Zhang was surprised, "It costs a lot of money to go abroad, right?"
"Well, I didn't ask the specifics, maybe it will cost 10,000+." Zhang Xiaobao glanced at his mother, then turned and went back to the room to continue reading. The high school entrance examination will be in a few days, so he can't take it lightly.
The senior high school entrance examination was nearly a month earlier than the usual final exam, and there was no work at home, so Zhang Dashan rushed to the city. Although he bought a house in the city, Zhang Dashan and his mother still liked their hometown.
Zhang Xiaobao is getting older. When he was in the second year of junior high school, Zhang Dashan decided to build a house at home. Zhang Xiaobao wanted to persuade him, but in the end he didn’t say anything. It is a matter of face, and the second is because the hometown is the root, and fallen leaves return to the root. This is a history passed down by the Chinese for thousands of years, and it has long been engraved in the blood of the Chinese people.
Now there are three houses in the county town. After [-], when they are demolished, they will be able to pay for a lot of houses. For Zhang Dashan and the others, they will live in one house and rent out the rest. These are enough for them to spend.
Zhang Xiaobao still felt very heartbroken seeing that instead of buying a house at the price of cabbage in the county, he would spend tens of thousands of dollars to build a house in the countryside, but the 35 in his hand still had other uses, so he couldn’t move it, otherwise he really planned to give it away. All the money in the house bought this piece of house.
In 1990, life had begun to gradually improve, but Zhang Xiaobao’s family was still the first to build buildings in four or five surrounding villages. In addition, grandparents felt very honored when they went out.
The transportation in my hometown is inconvenient, and sometimes I even use bullock carts to pull things. In this way, the time for building the house is greatly delayed. It was not until the beginning of this year that the house was completed. A total of more than 6 yuan was spent on labor and miscellaneous expenses. This is just an empty shell, and the home has not been decorated at all.
Then only a rough layer of cement was painted on the exterior wall, and only the first and second floors were painted inside the house. After the simple decoration, it cost more than 1 yuan.
The house was built thanks to Zhang Xiaobao’s 10 yuan. When he bought a house in the city, he spent nearly 10 yuan. Last year, Sanya was admitted to university, which also required a lot of money. , the [-] yuan will be bottomed out. If Sanya can earn living expenses by herself, Zhang's mother would not let her continue her studies.
Zhang Xiaobao was also a little surprised. At first he only thought that forty to fifty thousand would be enough, but it turned out that an empty shell would cost so much, more than 8, and how many houses can be bought in the county. Forget it, the houses are already gone. Once it’s done, I don’t want to think about it anymore.
"Xiaobao, Dad has fixed the room for you, and you can live in it when you get home after the high school entrance examination." Zhang Dashan said happily.
The first and second floors have been renovated, and when Xiaobao finishes his high school entrance examination and gets good grades, he will move into a new house and have a double happiness.
Zhang Xiaobao nodded, "Sure, when will our family move to a new house?" Zhang Xiaobao took two pears, one for Siya and one for himself. They were grown in grandma's yard. Every year when they picked pears, they brought them A basket for Xiaobao.
"Just know how to eat. If you don't get good grades, don't go to high school." Zhang's mother just came out, saw Zhang Xiaobao and Siya eating pears there, and waited for Siya to say.
Erya had a date last year. He was a teacher at the same school, a native of the county seat, his parents were dual-employed, and he was the only child. Xiaobao met him twice. He was very polite and treated his second sister very well. , at least for now, no matter how many there are, Xiaobao won't be able to see them.
Originally, the man’s family objected when they knew that their son had found a country girl, but later they learned that their family not only bought a house in the city, but also wanted to build a house in the country, so they never objected again.
Zhang Xiaobao originally thought that having such a snobbish father-in-law would treat the second sister badly, but after seeing the way the second sister got along with the future second brother-in-law, he worried about the future for the future brother-in-law instead.
They have already made a marriage contract, and they will get married this year. The family will lose a salary, and Zhang's mother is even more irritable, which is why she is angry with Siya.
"Mom, we are going to take the high school entrance examination in a few days, don't scare us!" Xiaobao stood up, a head taller than Mama Zhang, hugged Mama Zhang from behind, and said with a smile.
Zhang's mother turned around and tapped Zhang Xiaobao's head lightly, "How old is he still like this, what does he look like?" In fact, she was very happy that her son was close to her.
The weekend is over, and I went to school early the next morning. The students were not in the mood to play around, and they were all nervously reviewing. The countdown to the senior high school entrance examination was written on the blackboard at the back of the classroom, which added to the tense atmosphere of the high school entrance examination.
"Xiaobao, why aren't you nervous at all?" Wei Hua held a handwritten copy of ancient poems on his back, and when he saw Zhang Xiaobao wandering in, he couldn't help asking.
"Wei Hua, you are so stupid! Xiaobao is the first in age every time. I'm afraid that I will be miserable in the middle school entrance exam. My dad can tell me that if I don't do well in the exam this time, I will repeat the grade." A fat boy Sitting next to Zhang Xiaobao with a mournful face.
He is Xiaobao's tablemate for three years in junior high school, Wu Jianxing, his father belongs to the group that first went into business, and was also the first group to initiate. Now he is a well-known rich man in their county, and he expects nothing from his only son. Very high, he will enter Xiaobao's top class, because his father has a lot of contacts and spent a lot of money to let him in, but Wu Jianxing is a person who doesn't like to study, and he is often scolded and beaten.
"Then why don't you hurry up and review, it's better to hold Buddha's feet temporarily than not at all." Zhang Xiaobao gave Wu Jianxing a sideways glance. According to the 21st century, this person is a foodie + a second-hander. When it comes to learning, I immediately stopped.
"The senior high school entrance examination is just four days away. Even if I want to hug my feet, it's too late. This time, I'm really dead." Wu Jianxing lay down on the desk weakly.
This year is not like the future, repeating grades if you fail the exam or encounter something. In this era, especially in No. [-] middle school, repeating a grade is simply a 'stain' in life, but people will look down on it.
"I have a notebook with key points, would you like to read it?" Zhang Xiaobao didn't just practice handwriting at home these days, he also copied out what he thought were the key points, and then answered them carefully.
"Yes, of course." Wu Jianxing's eyes sparkled, and he immediately regained his anger.
Zhang Xiaobao shook his head and smiled, handed him the notebook, and then took out many papers to do.
It's almost time for the senior high school entrance examination, and the teacher will no longer give lessons like before, but will let all the students do the questions and explain some key points.
This time the examination room was in No. [-] Middle School. It was better than going to another school. On the same day, he entered the school with Si Ya, but it was a pity that he was not assigned to a classroom this time.
The senior high school entrance examination will take two days, and these two days when Xiaobao and Siya go home, their parents dare not even speak loudly, for fear that the loudness will scare away the knowledge in the two children's minds.
In fact, the more this is the case, the greater the pressure on them, but it's okay for Zhang Xiaobao, he has learned almost the same high school courses now, so he really doesn't need to worry about the high school entrance examination.
It's just that Siya can't do it, the whole person is very nervous, Xiaobao watched from the side, thinking that if this continues, he will probably faint in the examination room.
No matter in the previous life or in this life, Xiaobao has spent the longest time with Siya. Naturally, among the few older sisters, the affection for her is also the best. Of course, I don't want the fourth sister to fail in the high school entrance examination, otherwise, my mother may really be unhappy. The fourth sister is not allowed to go to high school.
But for exams, it's useless to be comforted by others. She can only rely on herself. The only thing Xiaobao can help is to cheer her up.
"Xiaobao, don't worry, I will definitely go to the same high school as you." Seeing her younger brother cheering her on and telling jokes to make her happy, Siya showed a sweet smile.
Siya's aptitude is the worst of the five children in the family, but she is the hardest working, which even the first three sisters have to admit.
After the exam, Zhang Xiaobao, who had been worried that Si Ya would faint, developed a high fever and fell into a coma for three days, almost scaring his family to death.
☆, old monk
He had a fever without warning. When he went to the hospital, the doctor couldn't explain why. He just gave him an antipyretic injection, and then let Zhang's mother rub alcohol to cool down.
Three days later, just when the doctor thought that Zhang Xiaobao might not be able to survive, he didn't expect him to retreat slowly. At night, Zhang Xiaobao, who had been burned for three days, finally opened his eyes, his throat was dry and burning, and he looked at the eyes beside him. The red parents, with sore eyes, couldn't help but shed tears.
"It can be regarded as awake." Zhang's mother's voice was a little hoarse, seeing Zhang Xiaobao opened his mouth, she quickly poured a glass of water for him.
After drinking two glasses of water in a row, the burning sensation in my throat was better, "Mom, I'm fine." In fact, my head was still a little dizzy, and my whole body was so sore as if it had been run over by a car.
"It's fine, it's fine." Zhang's mother touched Zhang Xiaobao's forehead, and it really wasn't too hot. "Are you hungry? Mom is going to get you a bowl of porridge." After finishing speaking, she left in a hurry.
Zhang Dashan didn't say a word after waking up from Xiaobao, but his face was obviously happy, "Do you want to drink water, I'll pour it for you."
"No need, Dad, go to rest quickly, don't let me get well, you are sick again." Looking at his father's haggard face, Zhang Xiaobao felt sour in his heart.
"Nonsense, I'm as strong as a cow, so there's nothing wrong with me." Having said that, Zhang Dashan was indeed tired. He hadn't closed his eyes for three days, and was frightened all day. Not only was he tired, but his heart was even more tired. Once people relax, they will be more tired.
After urging for a long time, Zhang Dashan and Zhang's mother held each other's hands and left with confidence until Mama Zhang came back with Erya and watched Zhang Xiaobao drink a bowl of porridge, leaving Erya here to take care of Xiaobao.
Zhang Xiaobao was also a little tired. After his parents left and said a few words to his second sister, he fell asleep again in a daze. When he woke up again, it was already the next morning. with him.
I remember that he also had a high fever in his previous life, and he was fine after waking up three days later. It was because of this that his parents doted on him more and more.
He has changed a lot in this life, and he never expected to suffer from this serious illness.
Like the previous life, when the fever subsided, he was fine. He woke up after a nap, and he was able to get up immediately. After the doctor's examination, he also said that he was completely fine. He could just go home and rest more. With the conclusion of professionals, Finally, my parents were completely relieved.
Zhang Xiaobao’s illness looks really dangerous this time. Grandpa Zhang and Grandma Zhang are getting old, and Zhang Dashan and the others dare not tell their hometown. They didn’t dare to tell them until Xiaobao recovered now. After buying it, I immediately took Xiaobao back to the countryside. It is estimated that the two elders have asked people from the same village to drive them to the county town with a tractor.
Just after returning home, Zhang Xiaobao was hugged by Grandma Zhang and touched him here and there. After making sure he was fine, he cried, "You didn't tell us that my grandson is so seriously ill. You want me." Fate!"
"Grandma, I'm really fine. It's just a cold and a little fever. It's not serious at all." Xiao Bao comforted grandma softly while wiping her tears.
Helping grandma back home, Xiaobao kept telling jokes to make her old man happy, and from time to time he talked about his going to school, and finally coquettishly said that he wanted to eat her cooking, and finally coaxed the old man to do it with his second daughter-in-law The meal is gone.
Zhang Xiaobao fell ill after the high school entrance examination. He stayed at home for one day and was hospitalized for four days. Today is the sixth day, and he will get his report card tomorrow. The grown-ups were all terrified. If you don’t get any grades, if you lose your life, it’s useless even if you win the first prize.
What's more, the Zhang family only has one seedling, if something really happens, the Zhang family will be left behind.
As soon as I think about it, Grandpa Zhang and Grandma Zhang are scared again, especially Grandma Zhang, who will not let go of Zhang Xiaobao's hand, which means that in the morning, he must take him to the temple to worship Buddha and pray for safety. agreed.
In his previous life, he seemed to have been there after he got sick, but at that time Zhang Xiaobao loved to play and didn't believe in any gods and Buddhas. He just went to deal with it because he couldn't stand grandma's nagging.
In this life, Zhang Xiaobao doesn't think so, people can come back from the dead, so he also believes in those weird things.
According to the elders in the village, this temple is the most efficacious in their township. During the Republic of China, many people from the city traveled over mountains and mountains to worship Buddha. But later, due to various reasons, the temple failed, but the local village The people still believed in this temple, so it was not abandoned.
Today is not a festival, and there are not many people who come to worship Buddha. Grandma Zhang carried a basket of incense candles and yellow paper, and led Xiaobao into the main hall. kneel down.
Zhang Xiaobao bowed three times devoutly, then got up, and followed Grandma Zhang out of the temple.
Before going out, he saw a very strange
