mark of the rain gl

The bird perched on the treetop was chirping, and then flapped its wings to clean its feathers with its beak. The sparse tree shadows fell on it, as if the broken light had stained its feathers.

Today is a wonderful weekend.

Xiao Yu is watching in front of the LCD TV [I am the creator! 2] In the latest episode of this program, she saw Qiu Zixin who she most wanted to see again.

There is a small sense of satisfaction in my heart.

She turned off the TV, just in time to hear the slight ringing of the doorbell from the ground floor, the crisp "ding dong" "ding dong".

It was Jiang Yizhou who came.They agreed that Xiao Yu would give her tutoring today.

Xiao Yu walked out of the master room and went downstairs quickly to pick up Jiang Yizhou. She saw Sister Cai was already standing at the entrance to greet Jiang Yizhou, and Jiang Yizhou nodded, his voice was a bit jerky, "Hello."

Her gaze shifted to the stairs on the second floor, just in time to bump into Xiao Yu who was hurrying down the stairs at this time, the other person's footsteps were brisk, like a small bird, she landed gracefully on the ground, and came in front of her.

"You're here." Xiao Yu smiled at her, and a scene of peach blossoms blooming quietly appeared in the background.

"Sister Cai, her name is Jiang Yizhou, she is my friend."

"This is Sister Cai, which can be regarded as my family." Xiao Yu introduced each other for them.

She naturally took Jiang Yizhou's wrist and asked her: "Let's go to study in the study, or do you want to stay in the living room?"

Xiao Yu was worried that Jiang Yizhou would not get used to her family having several servants standing by, so she offered to suggest going to the study.

Jiang Yizhou glanced at the hall, she really prefers to be alone with Xiao Yu.

"Go to the study."

Jiang Yizhou is wearing a red and black plaid shirt today, and her lower body is denim trousers that are cut to the right size. Her hair is tied into a half ponytail, and her eyebrows reveal a hint of handsomeness.

She was holding a black and white two-color backpack in her hand, which was full of schoolbooks and workbooks, and she really looked like she was serious about studying.

It was the first time for Sister Cai to see her own lady leading a friend home. She watched meaningfully as the backs of Xiao Yu and Jiang Yizhou gradually disappeared at the top of the steps.

"It seems that the relationship is quite good." Sister Cai suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. The young lady has made good friends at school.

Jiang Yizhou followed Xiao Yu into her study room, every corner of the room was cleaned very clean, no dust, and still had a faint fragrance, even the books and stationery were arranged neatly and orderly.

This can probably tell the character of the owner of this room.

On the inner side of the study, there is another step leading to the tatami, on which there is a long oval table.

Xiao Yu took out two round seat cushions with citrus fruit patterns, the one she sat on was orange, and the one for Jiang Yizhou was lemon.

She prepared the key points of the notes that she needed to use early in the morning, and they were all neatly displayed on the table.

Jiang Yizhou saw that the bookcases were filled with all kinds of books, including foreign language books, including all kinds of world famous books, literary works, philosophy books, and political theories...

Not quite the type an 11 year old would watch.

In addition, there are popular science books that introduce various countries. Among the many countries, there is only one place that appears most frequently and occupies a very high proportion.

"Xiao Yu, do you like America very much?" Jiang Yizhou's fingers brushed over the spines of a row of books, and the book covers of different materials brought different tactile sensations.

Jiang Yizhou found a lot of books about this country, and guessed that maybe Xiao Yu liked that place very much.

Xiao Yu, who was picking out the reference books, paused for a moment, her eyes flickered, as if her little thoughts had been exposed but she couldn't say it frankly, "Well... so it is."

"Come and sit, which subject do you want to learn first?" Xiao Yu gently patted the mat and called Jiang Yizhou to come and sit.

Only then did Jiang Yizhou look back, and walked to Xiao Yu's side and sat down.

"Hmm... let's start with the easier to understand?"

Jiang Yizhou glanced at the books piled up like a mountain on the desk, and couldn't help feeling a chill down his spine. He felt a little regretful and wanted to run away.

"Okay, then let's start with... English." Xiao Yu pulled out one of the reference books, "Come on, let's start with the most basic unit."

But what she held in her hand was not a textbook for junior high school students, but a course for fourth grade students.

Jiang Yizhou: "Fourth grade???"

Do you really think I'm mentally retarded? ? ?

"That's right, let's start from the basics." Xiao Yu nodded, not seeming to be joking.

"..." Jiang Yizhou suddenly realized that he was really, really bad at reading.

Xiao Yu first explained the use of basic grammar to her. She dug out the grammar book and began to explain carefully to Jiang Yizhou how to distinguish the difference between past tense, past participle, and present continuous tense in verbs.

Xiao Yu thoughtfully marked the key points with a highlighter, and then described their different characteristics one by one, "In fact, English is really not difficult. As long as you watch more European and American movies or listen to music, you will naturally understand some simple words. gone."

"The high-scoring skill in composition mainly lies in your vocabulary usage and the fluency of sentence types. As long as you have enough vocabulary and content, your score will definitely not be too low."

The light from the window penetrated into the room, and shone brightly on Xiao Yu's side cheeks. When she explained patiently, her expression was very focused, her slightly pouty mouth opened and closed, and her eyelashes flicked slightly with the blink of an eye.

Xiao Yu clasped her hands together, "Oh, and there is a problem that most people have. They have pronunciation problems."

"Actually, there are two types of English—American English and British English. The pronunciation of the two is different due to regional reasons."

"For example, a word like hour (hour) is pronounced hour in British English, but the American pronunciation is 'our', which hides the h."

"Because of different regions, the derived pronunciations are different. American English is generally more simplified. For words like colour, they will write it as color. And they put more emphasis on the pronunciation of the ending r, but British English does not."

Jiang Yizhou pursed her lips and nodded. She heard it very clearly, but she had a doubt in her heart, "Actually, English is not very important at all. After learning it, it is almost useless in China..."

After hearing her question, Xiao Yu raised her head and thought about it, "Well...Actually, from a local point of view, if you don't want to go abroad to study in university, English may really be useless after you enter the general society The land of martial arts."

"But you can't stop learning it because of this. Think about it, if you need to negotiate with foreigners in your work in the future? Or if you travel abroad, wouldn't this come in handy?"

"Not only can I communicate freely with the other party, but it can also prevent people from being cheated of money and sex." Xiao Yu said.

Jiang Yizhou thought about it for a few times, and felt that Xiao Yu's words made some sense, so he nodded.

"Am I right?" Xiao Yu raised her eyebrows proudly and said with a smile.

Seeing her proud look, Jiang Yizhou followed Xiao Yu's wishes to tease her: "What Master Xiao said is very true."

"Then let's continue watching..." Xiao Yu lowered her head and continued lecturing.

The air conditioner was turned on in the study, and Xiao Yu used the tablet to play some pure piano music as the background sound, so as not to make the room too quiet.

They sat on the tatami mats, and behind the long curtains beside them was a glass door. When the door was opened, there was a small balcony for leisure and a swing for one person.

Delicate broken light faintly shone in through the thin curtains.

Those circles of light sprinkled on the teak-colored wooden floor, on the academic textbooks for grades four, five and six, on the bookcases lined with books in various foreign languages, on Xiao Yu's hair, on the tip of her nose, on the corners of her lips...

Jiang Yizhou stared at her face, Xiao Yu was very serious when he started the lecture, with calm eyes and soft tone, patiently explaining every little detail to her.

Looking closely at Xiao Yu's face...

It is only the size of a palm, and there are still unremoved baby fat on the cheeks, and the facial features will be more beautiful and moving when they grow up.

There was a little smile in the corner of Jiang Yizhou's eyes, maybe it was a coincidence, subconsciously without thinking, she just stretched out her hand to pinch Xiao Yu's face, which made Xiao Yu startled.

"Why is your face so soft?" Jiang Yizhou rarely showed her "iceberg smile" once in a century.

Xiao Yu immediately shook off her hand, angrily and helplessly reprimanded: "I'm in class, so be more serious!"

The corners of Jiang Yizhou's mouth sank even further, and there was an unknown sweetness in his heart.

Xiao Yu rubbed her cheeks, hummed a little, and gave her a harmless look, "It's weird..."

"If you don't concentrate on listening to the class, I won't teach it anymore." Xiao Yu pretended to be serious with a straight face.

Jiang Yizhou worried that she really rejected this kind of touch, and realized that his behavior was not good, so he stopped obediently and listened carefully to the lecture.

After reviewing it all over, Xiao Yu took out a set of exercise books, "Now I'm here to check whether Brother Jiang has paid attention to the class just now!"

"Ah... the tuition is not over yet..." Jiang Yizhou swallowed, feeling scared.

"Good idea, wait a minute, I'll play the video and do audio-visual exercises for you. It must be completed within 10 minutes. You can't search for information online, and you can't bribe the examiner, who is me." Xiao Yu put her hands on her hips, and she stood up , took the tablet on the table, and began to click on the prepared questions.

"Can't you be more flexible, let me look up the dictionary or something..." Jiang Yizhou asked Xiao Yu tentatively, wanting to get a little advantage from it.

And Xiao Yu, the strict teacher, pursed her mouth, moved a chair and sat in front of her, raised an index finger on her right hand, and shook it from side to side, "nonono."

Thus, the pleasant audio-visual test began.

Jiang Yizhou can win various competitions on the sports field like a cheat, but when faced with the practice questions, she is really at a loss...

Jiang Yizhou frowned slightly and listened to the topic reported by the professional voice on the radio. She heard nothing, and finally understood the meaning of the last sentence and missed the next sentence in a blink of an eye.

It made her want to scratch her head, "Ah...this is..."

Xiao Yu shook her calf and looked at Jiang Yizhou who was worried about the topic, the corners of her mouth curled up.

After three to ten minutes, which was quite long for Jiang Yizhou, it was time to hand in the paper.

"No, let's say yes first, I have done it very seriously, but I can't guarantee the result..." Jiang Yizhou handed out the paper.

"Hmm, let me take a look." Xiao Yu was in a good mood, took her paper, and started to take out the red pen from the pencil case.

The make-up class has entered a short break, and Xiao Yu is correcting the audio-visual test questions that Jiang Yizhou just completed.

Jiang Yizhou was inconvenient and asked her, "Where is your toilet?"

"Go out and turn left, the one at the end of the corridor is there."

"Then I'll go out for a while." After Jiang Yizhou finished speaking, he closed the door behind him.

After Xiao Yu finished grading Jiang Yizhou's test paper, she wrote a comment, and she added a smiley face at the end of the sentence—【Keep up ●v●】and even gave Jiang Yizhou an exclusive stamp with a rabbit pattern to reward her for passing.

It seems that Jiang Yizhou is not so stupid, there is still hope.Ruzi can be taught.

At this moment, Xiao Yu's tablet issued a message notification tone, she glanced at the lock screen, and found that it was actually sent to her by Qiu Zixin.

【Are you there?Still doing your homework?Let's make a video? 】

Xiao Yu didn't know why sister Qiu suddenly asked to video with her, logically Qiu Zixin would not usually choose the time slot in the afternoon, because according to the time difference, that place is quite late now.

Xiao Yuhui: After [in], I added a kaomoji (°v°)

The other party replied quickly, [I'll dial now]

【it is good】

After a while, Qiu Zi's new video was delivered, Xiao Yu stood up holding the tablet, and wanted to run to the balcony to find a place with better light.

"Sister Qiu...?" Xiao Yu blinked and stared at the screen, the picture was shaking a bit, it was the other party who was turning the camera.

"I just sent you a few sets of photos, did you see that?" Qiu Zixin's voice came intermittently.

"Huh? Where?" Xiao Yu exited the video interface to check the chat history, and found that the photos may be sent one by one due to a bad connection, "Oh, I saw it."

In the photo are several school bags of different styles.

When Qiu Zi took a new business, she happened to pass by a boutique in city A. She walked into the store and wandered around, accidentally seeing the book products sold in this store.

She immediately thought of Xiao Yu in her mind.

Just got this as a birthday present.

With the permission of the clerk, she took a few photos and sent them to Xiao Yu, wanting to ask her what she thought.

"I happened to see some nice schoolbags in this store. I thought they could be your birthday presents, so I wanted to ask you if you like them. Because I don't have much time to stay here, and I'm leaving at noon tomorrow. .”

At this time, Jiang Yizhou had just returned from the toilet. When she walked back to the study, she heard soft voices in the room in the corridor.

"Xiao Yu, I'm back, have you finished correcting the paper?" Jiang Yizhou's voice came from behind Xiao Yu.

Qiu Zixin, who was originally looking down to choose a style, suddenly heard the voice of a young girl who did not belong to Xiao Yu on the other end of the phone.

"Your house has guests?" Qiu Zixin asked.

Jiang Yizhou: "What are you doing outside?"

Almost in unison, they both heard each other's voice, and subconsciously blurted out and asked together:

"Who?"
