Back to 11 years old

The next day was Monday, so He Lin and Mr. Xiao didn't stay in the urban area for too long, and rushed back in the afternoon.Sitting in the van arranged by the school, Teacher Xiao asked with some concern: "He Lin, have you really made your plans?"

He Lin nodded: "Well, teacher, I've already made up my mind, and after all, there are more opportunities in the city, and more information to come into contact with! Teacher Xiao, if it weren't for you, I would never have known, and There are things like participating in competitions to waive tuition fees and get scholarships, and I will have more opportunities like this when I get to the city!"

After hearing this, Teacher Xiao said with some relief: "It's good that you know what you want. You have to walk your own way, but others can't help you. That's what the teacher can help you with, and there's nothing else you can do. As for you It’s okay to talk about skipping grades, but I suggest you hold off for a while. If you pass the preliminaries this time, you will be able to participate in the National Mathematical Olympiad. If you get a place in such a competition, your road ahead will be even better Go some!"

He Lin nodded, and said earnestly again: "Mr. Xiao, thank you very much!"

Teacher Xiao smiled slightly, but sighed in his heart, and then said: "It's you who strives for it yourself, and from now on, you have to keep striving for it!"

"Well, I will!" He Lin nodded vigorously again, but he was thinking in his heart that since he planned to go to school in the city, he had to make a new plan, even though the city was not as developed as a county seat later. It looks good, but that's only relative. Investing in real estate near the school is a sure-fire deal. However, He Lin hasn't figured out how to do it yet.

Back in Hejiawan, Hu Feng directly took him to his home for dinner. He Lin was so proud that he was able to participate in the competition in the city. Although they didn't know what was going on in the Olympiad, the school sent a car to pick him up. There was also a teacher following. It can be seen that this competition is very important, and He Lin who was able to participate in the competition is also very remarkable. Thinking that there is actually a seed of reading among his relatives, even Hu Feng, who is stingy, feels that He Lin should be rewarded. So, I gritted my teeth, killed an old hen at home, stewed a large pot of chicken soup, and went to the butcher shop to cut two catties of meat, added some potatoes to make a large pot of braised pork, and it was done quickly. It was just in time for the Chinese New Year, and then Hu Feng continued to pick up meat and serve soup for He Lin, and almost stuffed two chicken legs into He Lin's bowl.

Lin Feng complained endlessly: "Mom, am I your own son? Why did you just see my brother!"

Hu Feng waited for him and said, "If you are as competitive as your brother Lin, no, as long as you catch up to half of him, I would be willing to kill all the chickens in the house for you, but look, you have studied so much. It’s been many years, not to mention going out to compete, have you brought back a certificate? They are all three-good students, outstanding young pioneers, etc., and you, even if you have positive grades, you can’t be seen! Oh, Xiaolin, Xiaofeng He, I will leave it to you in the future, you should teach him well, huh? Last time in the class, most of the students scored 99 points, and those who were close to it were 98, 80, and he came back with more than [-] points in the test. , which is two points more than the bottom one, it is really hard to say!"

When Lin Feng heard this, he immediately lowered his head and remained silent.

He Lin also didn't know what to say, but he had become someone else's child, so he had to be on the sidelines: "Aunt, Xiaofeng is just careless, it's not that he can't, just be more careful in the future, he If you like it, there’s nothing wrong with it, I’ll tell him, and I’ll make sure I finish the lecture!” But he felt helpless, it’s not that he had never tutored Lin Feng’s homework, but he felt that Lin Feng was not really material for learning at all. In addition to carelessness and carelessness, the main reason is that he has no interest in learning. No matter what you say, he just can't learn. For such a student, even ordinary teachers can't help, let alone don't understand. What educational psychology and so on He Lin, besides being able to teach him some problem-solving methods, disintegrating ideas and so on, there is nothing else he can do.

Hu Feng didn't understand this, and immediately became happy when he heard it: "Cheng, Xiaofeng, I'll listen to Brother Lin from now on, do you understand?"

Lin Feng nodded a little aggrieved. He really doesn't like studying. He wants to doze off when he sees textbooks, and he gets dizzy when he sees arithmetic. In the soup basin, he took a large piece of chicken wing and almost half of the chicken breast, and tore it off, put it in his own bowl, and started to work hard. Lin Cheng glanced at him from the side, and tapped his hand with his chopsticks. But Lin Fengquan pretended not to feel it, so Lin Cheng could only sigh secretly.

Lin Feng quickly changed the subject. He gnawed on the chicken wings and asked, "Brother, you went to the city. Is the city fun?"

He Lin's heart suddenly moved, and he said: "The city is actually similar to the county, and I don't have time to go out. After the exam, I found a small restaurant with Mr. Xiao for dinner. It's not a meal, it's just money! It’s just such a big bowl of pork rib soup. If there are ten pieces of ribs in it, he dares to sell it for ten yuan. A plate of green pepper and potato shreds is only three yuan. Teacher Xiao and I ordered three dishes, which cost almost two dollars. Ten, the taste is much worse than that made by my aunt! I thought, just such a pot of chicken soup, put it in a restaurant, will cost at least 40 yuan!"

Hu Feng's eyes widened immediately, and his mouth shut in surprise: "Really, food in the city is so expensive, it's a good thing your uncle didn't go to work in the city, otherwise, the money he earned would not be enough to eat!"

He Lin couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and looking at Lin Cheng again, he seemed to be convinced, and was speechless immediately. Most people must think that money is so easy to earn in the city, and such a simple dish can be sold so expensive. I'll go It must be more profitable. In the end, my uncle and aunt actually thought this way. No wonder the two ended up living on the few acres of land in their hometown!

He Lin originally planned to buy a house with a front room in front of the school, and open a small restaurant for his uncle and aunt on the first floor. Now let's see, my aunt is greedy for small things~ cheap, don't make it for the sake of it. Spend less, earn more, if there is any trouble, it will not end well at that time, it seems that the catering business will not succeed!

After He Lin went back, he felt worried. There is a saying that a single tree cannot support him. The biggest shortcoming of He Lin is that he is too young. No matter how many ideas he has, he can hardly do anything, unless he does not go to school, but How is this possible?He Lin can feel at ease with his uncle and aunt, but these two people are not on the same line with him at all. If they ask them to go into business, they will take advantage of the small gains and suffer the big losses. Thinking about it this way, He Lin For a while, I didn't know what to do.

Just when He Lin was having a headache because of these things, the results of the preliminaries came out, and He Lin topped the list again. Now, He Lin's name was a sensation in the entire education circle of T City.
