Reborn to Strive

Liang Qinxuan was a sophomore in high school. Guan Baiyu asked him for homework, just to see it, but he didn't think he could do it.

But when Liang Qinxuan gave him the question...

Guan Baiyu suddenly discovered that many of the questions were from the first year of high school.

Although they haven't taught a lot of knowledge, but he has read the textbook and can think about those questions...

Liang Qinxuan said: "Those teachers said that my foundation is not very good, and they plan to start teaching me again from the first year of high school."

Guan Baiyu said: "The teachers are very hardworking, you must work hard! By the way, you have finished these questions, can you lend me a copy?"

Liang Qinxuan agreed immediately: "I will give you these test papers after the teacher finishes grading."

He doesn't keep the test papers he did before, he just throws them away when he's done.

Guan Baiyu disagreed: "This is not good. You'd better copy down the questions you made mistakes, so that you can review them later and you won't make mistakes again."

Liang Qinxuan felt that what Guan Baiyu said made sense, but he couldn't do it.

Liang Qinxuan came to talk to Guan Baiyu, and when the bell rang for the evening self-study in the second quarter, he ran away quickly, but he left Guan Baiyu a math test paper that the teacher had corrected.

That was when he went to the math teacher to make up lessons. The math teacher used it to make him a paper to test his level. The wrong questions on it, the teacher had already told him when he made up the lesson before, and he was still working on it. Corrected.

Guan Baiyu took the test paper back to the classroom, covered the answers and tried to do it by himself. If he made it, he checked the answer. If he couldn't do it... then he also looked at the answer.

He can understand most of the questions by looking at the answers, but he can't understand a few of them because he has relevant knowledge that he has not learned.

After finishing reading, he took out another notebook and copied down the questions that Liang Qinxuan did wrong, planning to give it to Liang Qinxuan in the future, so that Liang Qinxuan could do it again.

It's not easy to take other people's papers for nothing.

On the other side, Shi Zhen passed Guan Jianguo and took on a few jobs.

The 90s was an era of rapid development in J City. With tools like tractors, there was no need to worry about running out of work.

Generally, some people are more diligent and will do more, while some people are lazy and will do less.

Guan Jianguo has been driving tractors for many years, many people will contact him to do things, even people in his village and nearby villages, if they want to buy bricks or something, they will directly ask him to buy them.

He went to the brick factory to help someone buy a tractor brick, and he could earn ten yuan and 20 yuan. It was very tiring to move the bricks.

In addition, it is to install things for some factories, which also makes money.

Shi Zhen didn't plan to do a fixed job, he prefers to take on casual jobs, which may not make much money, but he himself doesn't plan to work hard to make money like Guan Jianguo.

He didn't want his body to be overwhelmed.

Today, Shi Zhen went to buy bricks for a person from the next village.

According to Guan Jianguo's instructions, he first went to the brick factory to buy, and when he arrived at the door of the family, he unloaded the bricks from the car and piled them together.

Guan Jianguo gave him an iron clamp for moving bricks, which can hold several bricks in one clamp, and then he can lift them up and put them on the pile of bricks next to him, which is much faster than moving them by hand.

Shi Zhen helped the family unload bricks, and chatted with them by the way. He learned that the family thought bricks were getting more and more expensive, so they thought about buying bricks. They planned to wait a few more years, save enough money, and build a big house.

The male owner of this house has two sons, and now he only has one house, and the sons will not be able to live in it after they get married in five or six years, so they have to build it again, which is also convenient for the son to get married and marry a wife.

"Your house hasn't been built for long, has it?" Shi Zhen asked.

"It didn't take long, only seven or eight years. At that time, I separated from my brother and built this house... It looks a bit small now."

"It's changing so fast."

"That's right..." The male owner of that house took out cigarettes and distributed them to Shi Zhen.

Shi Zhen didn't want it.

Throughout the 90s and the early 21st century, some people in rural areas really kept building houses and then spent all their savings.

Later, I started to buy a house again.

It has to be said that people's enthusiasm for houses will never diminish.

Shi Zhen spent an afternoon helping someone buy a truckload of bricks and earned more than ten yuan.

In fact, if he is familiar with it, it won't take so long, but he hasn't done this job for a long time, so he is not familiar with it.

When all the bricks were finally removed, Shi Zhen was covered in red brick dust.

The labor protection gloves he bought for work also turned red.

Shi Zhen took the money and returned home without asking for the pack of cigarettes that were handed to him.

He still has to go to the town to sell cold drinks at night, so he should go back and take a shower early.

With such a dirty look, he can't be in the food business.

Shi Zhen parked the tractor at the gate of Guan Jianguo, and then called Shi Xingchao back: "Xingchao, I want to take a shower, and you can make dinner tonight."

"Okay!" Shi Xingchao agreed, got up and closed the door, and brought a woolen sweater with him when he left.

Can I embroider two stitches while burning the fire?

When Shi Zhen and Shi Xingchao came to the door of Guan Baiyu's house, they saw a well-dressed young man in his early twenties with mousse on his hair standing at the door.

As soon as the man looked over, he knew that he was not doing manual labor.

"Do you have something to do?" Shi Zhen asked, he didn't know this person, but judging from his appearance, it seemed that he came here specially for something.

"Yes, I have something to do. I'm Zhao Dongjuan's friend." The man puffed out his chest and looked at Shi Zhen and Shi Xingchao. "Which of you is Shi Zhen?"

"I am." Shi Zhen frowned and looked at the other party.

After he brought Zhao Dongjuan out of the mountain, he didn't want to care about this person.

And for more than two months, Zhao Dongjuan has been quite peaceful, at least she didn't cause trouble for him.

He didn't have high demands on Zhao Dongjuan, as long as she didn't make trouble on him. Zhao Dongjuan occasionally said a few sour words, anyway, he didn't care, so it didn't matter.

Guan Baiyu's little grandma came to make a fuss in front of him from time to time, so he didn't bother to care.

But... this person was found by Zhao Dongjuan, why did he come here?

Hearing Shi Zhen's confession, the man immediately said: "So you are Shi Zhen, how can you be so biased? You are both sisters and sisters. You give your sister a stall and spend a lot of money to send your sister to study. Why don't you care about Dongjuan? You guys?" The whole family squeezed her out together, how pitiful she is..."

Shi Zhen asked: "She asked you to come to me?"

"No! I wanted to bring her to you for a long time, but she didn't agree. I came here by myself today!" Zhong Liyang said.

Zhong Liyang met Zhao Dongjuan more than a month ago, and his home is not far from the rented house of the Shi family.

After meeting, Zhao Dongjuan told him a lot of grievances at home, which made him sympathize with Zhao Dongjuan and wanted to help Zhao Dongjuan.

It's a pity that Zhao Dongjuan is afraid of her family and dares not let him stand up for her.

Recently, Zhao Dongjuan couldn't stay at home anymore, and wanted to establish a relationship with him, move out of the house and live in his house...

He finally plucked up the courage and wanted to talk to Zhao Dongjuan's family.

He has a good impression of Zhao Dongjuan and tried his parents, but according to his parents' wishes, he hoped that he could marry a teacher or a civil servant.

He himself is an English teacher in a junior high school in the town.

So when he falls in love with Zhao Dongjuan, his parents will probably object, but if the Zhao family treats Zhao Dongjuan better, Zhao Dongjuan can go to self-examination or something, and find a solid job in the future, then his parents should agree.

Zhao Dongjuan's parents lived closer to his home. He originally wanted to find Zhao Dongjuan's parents, but according to Zhao Dongjuan's statement, her mother was partial to her older sister and wished she could be without her as a daughter.

Where is her stepfather?And he didn't take her stepdaughter to heart at all.

Zhao Dongjuan worries every day that her parents will sell her for money. If he goes to her door, will the Shi family rely on him?

If the Shi family came to his house to ask for a bride price or something, his parents would definitely not like him being with Zhao Dongjuan.

After much deliberation, he decided to find Zhao Dongjuan's brother.

He had seen Shi Ting at school, and Zhao Qiujuan who sold rice balls from a distance. He felt that since Shi Zhen was kind to his sisters, he should be kind to Zhao Dongjuan.

Shi Zhen didn't know Zhong Liyang, but by looking at Zhong Liyang's appearance, he could probably guess Zhong Liyang's origin.

This is the man Zhao Dongjuan fooled, right?

Zhao Dongjuan was also good at fooling people in her previous life, she only looked for men with good family conditions but unsatisfactory appearance to fool her.

It's just that those men like her, and those men's family members generally disagree.

As for the men who can be coaxed by her... Most of them are the kind whose family members don't agree, and they can't be the masters themselves.

So she chose for a long time, and finally found a demolisher, who actually had shortcomings.

"You can lend Shi Ting the tuition, why can't you pity Zhao Dongjuan..."

"Zhao Dongjuan is not at home these days. Did she go to see you? You feel sorry for her? Did you spend a lot of money on her?" Shi Zhen asked.

Zhong Liyang paused.

When he was on summer vacation before, he did often spend time with Zhao Dongjuan. Recently, he was only free on weekends and evenings: "This is not the key, and I didn't spend much money on her. I want to say..."

"Brother, take pity on me!" Shi Xingchao interrupted suddenly, and said to Zhong Liyang, "I'm really pitiful, much more pitiful than Zhao Qiujuan! Look at Zhao Qiujuan, she can eat without doing anything, I want every day I need to embroider clothes to eat, and there are parents in my hometown who are waiting for me to take money back to support them... Can you help me?"

Zhong Liyang was taken aback.

Shi Xingchao immediately showed off his clothes: "Look at my clothes, I have worn them for many years, and I am reluctant to throw them away."

Shi Zhen wanted to buy clothes for Shi Xingchao, but Shi Xingchao didn't want them, and even said that even if Shi Zhen wanted to give him clothes, he wouldn't want them, he would rather ask for money!

So Shi Xingchao was still wearing old clothes from his hometown, which were too thin and had holes in some places.

Even Shi Zhen felt that he couldn't see it, but Shi Xingchao was very satisfied and felt cool.

In addition, Shi Xingchao has only been here for a week. He was in the mountains before, and he worked and watered the ground every day in the summer, and he was so tanned that he was so black!

Shi Xingchao also stretched out his calloused hands towards Zhong Liyang: "Look at my hands, they are covered with thick calluses, and I haven't been hungry since I was a child..."

Zhong Liyang was dumbfounded.

After Shi Xingchao finished crying, he pulled Shi Zhen again and said, "Look at Shi Zhen again, he is two months older than Zhao Dongjuan, and he moves bricks to earn money every day just to teach his sister... How thin is he? Have pity on him?"

Shi Zhen has really lost weight these days, and today he has to work, and he still wears the same shabby clothes as Shi Xingchao, and his body is covered with brick crumbs.

Zhong Liyang: "..."

Forget it, at this time, Shi Xinghuo came back.

Shi Xinghuo followed others to read the water meters again today. The water meters in the countryside are basically placed under the ground outside the kitchen, where there are often kitchen sewage pipes... Many water meters are soaked in sewage, which is called a stink!

Shi Xingchao pointed to his elder brother and said: "You also pity my elder brother, he gets up early every day and does dirty work all day long!"

Shi Xinghuo, who was very tanned, didn't know what was going on with his body exuding a strange smell. He smiled at Zhong Liyang and showed his yellow teeth.

Well, he has bad teeth.

Zhong Liyang showed embarrassment and wanted to cover his nose, but he didn't dare to do so because the three grown men opposite looked a little aggressive.

Shi Zhen also laughed at this time: "Zhao Dongjuan is an adult, and she refuses to find a job, and she doesn't take care of her mother's broken leg, she runs out every day...you even pity her, why don't you pity us? "

Shi Xingchao immediately said: "That's right... have you brought any money? Your clothes look really good. I haven't worn such beautiful clothes before. Can you give me your old clothes?"

Zhong Liyang fled in despair.

Shi Xingchao was still a little disappointed: "You're so stingy, you won't even give away your old clothes!"

Shi Zhen smiled, asked Shi Xingchao to cook, and pulled up a curtain at the door of the house to fetch water for a bath.

He still has to set up a stall at night!

On the other hand, after Zhong Liyang left, the more he thought about it, the more something went wrong.

Zhao Dongjuan actually looked pretty good, her clothes were clean and tidy, and her hands were free of calluses.

Putting aside what Zhao Dongjuan said, just looking at the appearance, the three men just now are definitely more pitiful.

Zhong Liyang didn't have class this afternoon, so he asked for leave from the school, but he didn't tell Zhao Dongjuan about it... After thinking about it, Zhong Liyang went to Shi's house.

The door of Shi's house was open, Zhao Qiujuan and Zhao Meiyun were embroidering clothes at the door, and two middle-aged women who lived nearby embroidered with them.

Zhao Meiyun originally wanted to stay on the bed to recuperate, but it was not good for her to stay still on the bed, so Shi Zhen asked Zhao Qiujuan to buy her a pair of crutches so that she could move a little bit.

So, she started embroidering clothes at the door of her house. After a few days of embroidering, people from the neighborhood came to embroider with her because they knew that sweater embroidery could make money.

Although Zhong Liyang is a local, he used to study in school, and he has not been a teacher for a long time after graduation. No one knows him when he walks here.

But he could see clearly that Zhao Meiyun had indeed broken her leg.

But for the past two weekends, Zhao Dongjuan was still with him. The two went shopping in the park and ate noodles. During that time, Zhao Dongjuan didn't tell him what was going on at home.

"What are your clothes for?" Zhong Liyang asked, the man who begged him for pity was also holding such clothes.

"Embroidering this dress can earn fifty cents." A local woman who was embroidering clothes said.

Zhong Liyang took a deep breath.

So these people are making money?

But he didn't see Zhao Dongjuan.

People's trust in others is actually very easy to be destroyed. Sometimes when you find that one thing a person said is false, you will suspect that other things she said are also false.

When Zhong Liyang returned home, he immediately made a decision not to be with Zhao Dongjuan anymore.

Shi Zhen didn't take Zhong Liyang's matter to heart, and lived his own life as usual.

The next morning, when he was collecting sweaters at home, he suddenly heard the driver who delivered the sweaters say, "Shi Zhen, there are already other people doing your job, and they ask for less money than you. Be careful."

Shi Zhen has a good relationship with this driver, knowing that the other party came here to remind him, so he immediately thanked him, feeling a little helpless.

This is the way this world is, if any business that can be done without too much threshold is very profitable, countless people will soon squeeze their heads to do it.

In the future, he will earn less money from sending and receiving sweaters than before.

Because there is a high probability that Zhou will always ask for more kickbacks, or the factory simply lowers the price.

He also took this into consideration when he didn't give the villagers too high a price at the beginning.

But this is also normal and he can accept it.

It's such an easy job.

He could earn about four thousand a month before, but recently he was sending and receiving more clothes, and he could earn five or six thousand.

Even if I can't earn so much in the future, it's okay to send and receive more sweaters and keep it at three or four thousand.

He didn't spend much, and he could even save all of it.

Shi Zhen was busy at home in the morning, and in the afternoon he took over the work of the cement factory, delivering cement to a family.

People building houses these days usually buy bricks and tiles in advance, but cement is definitely bought after use, after all, it will harden after a long time.

When Shi Zhen passed by, he saw that someone was building a house.

He helped to move the cement out of the car, chatted with those who were laying bricks, and found that their bricklaying skills were really average.

But this is also normal. Many people are monks halfway and just started doing these things.

In fact, apart from the mediocre craftsmanship of the workers, the house type is also very mediocre.

Now how to build a self-built house in rural areas, the person who builds the house must think about it himself, or take one from someone else’s house, or simply ask the person who built the house for him to think of one... Generally, they are square and rectangular houses. Surprisingly.

Most of these houses will be demolished and rebuilt in the future—in the countryside of J City more than [-] years later, many self-built houses in the countryside can be built more beautifully than villas in the city.

Building a house is also considered a big deal, especially for this builder. He wants to demolish the two-story building originally built in the 80s and build a three-story building.

It is said that this is their first point here.

Shi Zhen chatted with the workers, and told the homeowner that he knew a worker who could paint and lay bricks, and he could find him if necessary, and then left Guan Jianguo's address.

In the next few days, Shi Zhen has been familiarizing himself with the prices of various building materials today, and looking for people who are interested in building their own houses by the way.

If he can build an eye-catching house here, he won't have to worry about losing business in the future.

Of course, there is no rush, you can take your time.
