After discussing with Mr. Zhou, Anxi took the two children back to the room to rest.

Early the next morning, Elder Zhou came and knocked on the door. The two went to the restaurant downstairs to have breakfast before setting off for Zhou's home together.

Anxi was a little curious, "Old Zhou, your home is in Beiping, why did you stay in the hotel last night?"

"Oh, this, the hotel held an exchange meeting. Many Chinese and foreign students participated, and the school also signed up for me. For convenience, the hotel arranged accommodation."

"Is the exchange meeting over?"

"Not yet, today is the last day." Elder Zhou shook his head.

"Aren't you going to participate? If you have something to do, you can do it first. I'm not in a hurry." Anxi said immediately after hearing this.

Mr. Zhou shook his head, "It's not interesting. They said they were talking about Chinese and foreign exchanges, but what they said was very simple. It can't be said that it's useless, but it's not very useful. I wanted to leave last night. Didn't I meet you?" , just stay one more night.”

After eating, they walked to the hotel entrance, and a brand new rickshaw came running over immediately. The coachman Li said with a smile, "Mr. Zhou, you are here. The car has been packed and ready to go."

Mr. Zhou nodded, "My house is not close. I need to take a rickshaw to get there. I hired this one. If you don't worry, I'll ask him to introduce someone he knows to you."

Anxi nodded immediately, it is definitely better to have acquaintances than strangers, "Then it will be troublesome."

As soon as the coachman heard this, he immediately turned around and greeted behind him, "Birth, here are the guests."

"Come on," there was a middle-aged man, looking at the thin man, pulling a half-new and half-worn rickshaw over.

Driver Li smiled flatteringly, "Sir, don't look at my brother who was born thin, he has a lot of strength, and he pulls the rickshaw well and stably. He is a careful person, and the car is cleaned up, but it takes a long time. It will inevitably look a bit dated, so don't mind."

Anxi nodded, and waited for the son to pull the car over, and took a closer look, the old one was a bit old, but it was clean, that's all.

Without saying much, he took the two children directly into the rickshaw, sat in the middle by himself, put the two children on both sides, and then protected them with both hands.

Seeing that they were seated, Mr. Zhou also got into the car and led the way.

On the way, Anxi asked the price, and it only cost five cents for an hour-long trip to Zhou's hometown, because there were two children with him, and there was no price increase for having a child.

It was really cheap, so he asked the price of the chartered car again.

While jogging, Shengzi said cautiously, "Brother Li's car was newly replaced this year, and it costs a little more. The monthly subscription costs three yuan a month."

It sounds like a small number, but everyone is very envious.Pick-up jobs like theirs only earn five cents for the farthest trip, and it's exhausting to earn two cents a day, and half of it is handed over to the car dealer, leaving only ten cents a day.

After a month, it was three yuan at most.It looks the same as the monthly subscription, but there is a big difference. The monthly subscription only needs to serve one person, and there are four or five trips every day, and it can guarantee three yuan.

Casual work is different, depending on the weather and luck.

With this three yuan a month, the whole family can be guaranteed to chew and eat without having to support themselves to death.

Anxi thought for a while, "Then I'll hire you for a month, it's also three yuan, but I'm not sure about the time, I may need a car at any time, so who do you want?"

"Okay, thank you sir." Shengzi was so excited that he immediately agreed.

On the way, he saw an old farmer selling in a frame. Anxi glanced at it and saw that it was a big pear.

Asking the childbirth to stop, Anxi asked the old farmer, "Old man, are your pears sweet?"

"Sweet, it's sweet. This is the first batch. You don't look rough, but it's juicy and delicious." The old farmer frowned, and his hands were so thin that they were almost skinny.Trembling, he took out a handkerchief, picked up a pear, wiped it vigorously a few times, and handed it to Anxi.

Anxi didn't shirk, took a bite, it was sweet and juicy, it was really good, "How much is a catty? Give me five catties."

Hearing this, the old farmer quickly took out a woven rattan basket from another box, and put a dozen or so pears in it, "Look, sir, the total is more than five catties and six catties, one cent for one catty, and I charge you fifty cents." .”

Anxi looked at the woven basket with great interest. Although the workmanship was rough, the shape was interesting and had a Southwestern style.

"You guys made this up yourself? Are there any more?"

The old man hurriedly took out all the baskets, there were five in total, each one was different, but they were all beautiful, "It was made by my wife, it's worthless, sir, if you like it, I'll give it to you."

Anxi didn't take more, picked another one, and gave the old man one yuan.

After starting again, I asked Shengzi, knowing that there are other fruits to buy now, so I asked him to detour and buy some more fruits, filling two baskets.

By the time Mr. Zhou came home, Mr. Zhou had been back for 10 minutes, and he and his wife Han Juan were waiting.

Anxi got out of the car with the two children, and smiled shyly at the elder, "Sorry, I kept you waiting for a long time, and it took a little time on the road." He said and handed over the two fruit baskets.

Mrs. Han said angrily, "Come as soon as you come, what else do you bring, you can't see outsiders like this in the future."

She took the fruit basket casually, and when she saw the two baskets, she couldn't help but said in surprise, "Hey, these two baskets are so pretty, where did you buy them, I haven't seen anything like this before."

Anxi smiled and introduced, "This is a characteristic of a minority ethnic group in the Southwest. Girls there like to weave baskets of various shapes, especially in spring, when flowers are in full bloom. They will weave flower baskets to hold fruits. I also met on the road. When I arrived, I bought two because I thought it was interesting, but they bought pears, and this basket is used to hold pears, I can't do the thing of buying a basket and returning pearls, so I brought them together."

These words made Mrs. Han burst into laughter, "You narrow-minded bastard, if you say that, I'll take this basket, pears and fruits, you can take them back."

Anxi also laughed, "That's okay, I just send an empty basket as a gift at the door, it seems that I don't know how to be polite! Old lady, you can't hurt me."

The two talked and laughed for a while.It can be seen that Mrs. Han is a lively old lady who loves to laugh, and she has a good impression of Anxi, and she keeps talking.

On the other hand, Mr. Zhou, seeing that they kept talking for so long, quickly interrupted, "Okay, okay, I have something else to do, so stop talking."

As he spoke, he pointed to the two children beside Anxi and said to the old lady, "This is the child I just told you about. I will take Anxi to school today, and you should help look after the children first."

When Anxi heard this, he quickly squatted down and said to the two children, "Today, you are at Grandma Han's place first, don't be naughty, and I will come to pick you up in the evening when I finish my work, okay?"

Fang Zhixie was heartless, she listened as if she didn't listen, with big black eyes, staring at the fruit in the basket on the table, with longing in her eyes, and suspicious water stains at the corner of her mouth.But she is also well-behaved, even if she wanted to eat, she didn't ask for it.

Anxi actually noticed it a long time ago, but this is for a gift, so let's buy some after seeing it when I go back at night.

Fang Zhige's temperament would be a little more sensitive. He held Anxi's hand firmly, looked up at Mrs. Han's eyes from time to time, saw her kind smile, paused, and then nodded slowly.

Anxi patted the heads of the two, took their hands and handed them to the old lady, "Please trouble Teacher Han."

Although she has retired, from what she said just now, Mrs. Han prefers to be called Teacher Han.

Teacher Han was holding the two children, with a smile on his face and kindness in his eyes, "Oh, they are really two cute guys. Anxi, don't worry, our Ge Ge and Wei Wei are so good, there is nothing to worry about."

Seeing the explanation here, Mr. Zhou couldn't wait to take Anxi out. Outside the door, two rickshaw masters were waiting. They got in the car and went directly to Peking University.

The Peking University in this world is not very big, but it has a strong academic atmosphere. From the gate to Mr. Zhou's office, you can see many students along the way.

They gathered together to discuss a certain subject, or read quietly with a book in their arms, or pestered the teacher to ask various questions.

Mr. Zhou was usually kind and friendly, but along the way, he met several groups of students who asked questions.

It can be seen that he thinks that he is a responsible professor, even if he is in a hurry, once the students ask, he still has the patience to answer them one by one.

The students were also savvy. Seeing Mr. Zhou's anxious face, most of them hesitated and did not go forward.

Seeing this, Elder Zhou dragged Anxi and ran away.

Students: ...are they some kind of scourge?

so?

Who is the person next to Mr. Zhou?What are they going to do in such a hurry?

No matter how busy he is with his studies, he won't let his classmates gossip, especially Mr. Zhou is still a celebrity in Peking University.

That's right, at Peking University, you don't have to know who the principal is, or you don't need to know your own teacher, but you don't have to know Mr. Zhou.

You must know that Peking University was co-founded by Mr. Zhou and Mr. Qian. The current principal and the previous principal were both students. After Mr. Qian passed away, Mr. Zhou was the only veteran.

If he hadn't devoted himself to research and teaching, he would actually be the real principal.

It's really lucky for that young man who looks so fair and fair to be favored by Mr. Zhou.

"You say, is he a relative of Mr. Zhou?"

"It shouldn't be? It doesn't mean that all of Zhou's relatives have gone abroad. Over the years, the school has been able to receive a steady stream of donations and materials, thanks to Zhou's son."

"I don't think it looks like it either. It should be that they are very knowledgeable. Mr. Zhou has always appreciated talented students."

"Didn't you see it? Mr. Zhou took him to the office. What else can Mr. Zhou do in the office? Do research!" said an astute student.

"Huh? He looks younger than me. Could it be that he is also a scholar of Chinese and Western culture?"

"It should be... right!" The speaker said uncertainly.

"Yes, I just don't know whether he is a student or a teacher." It was still the astute student, "Suddenly I am looking forward to it. To be favored by Mr. Zhou, he must have real talents, right?!"
