blood pot

(two)

After Zhang Xiaoyu finished her lunch, she walked towards the library opposite the school holding the slices of steamed buns that had been fried golden in the morning.Before going out, I told my mother that Zhang’s mother was busy making up for the night’s work, so she gave her son ten yuan, which probably meant that she was afraid that her son would not be able to cook well at noon and she had no time to cook, so she asked him to stay at school. I had lunch at a fast-food restaurant selling ramen fried rice next door.

Mother Zhang fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow.It was already the midsummer season in April and May, and Zhang's mother was busy working in the waste yard under the scorching sun every day. Once she accidentally suffered from heatstroke and was sent back by the people next to her.At that time, Zhang Xiaoyu asked for leave and ran home as soon as she heard the news.Later, afraid that something might happen to my mother again, I discussed with my mother not to work at noon when the temperature was the highest. Zhang’s mother had no choice but to go out when the morning and evening were cool.Occasionally, when I come back late, I simply work all night, and return to the rented room the next morning to make breakfast for my son before catching up on sleep.

For the convenience of my son, some change is often placed in the drawer of the table at home for emergencies.Mother Zhang waited for her son to go out, opened her eyes, and took out a blue checkered handkerchief from the pocket of her close-fitting clothes.There are mostly ten and twenty bills inside, and few hundred bills.Zhang's mother counted over and over again, and sighed: "980 yuan, plus the 5000 yuan in the passbook, the total is... let's count it as [-] yuan! After deducting the daily expenses of rent, water and electricity, Xiaoyu's first semester of high school I have almost saved enough money, but..." Zhang's mother thought that this year's Chinese New Year and her son's birthday, she didn't buy one or two new clothes for her son, if she was laughed at by other children after high school... Thinking of this, Zhang's mother couldn't help but feel upset.

After thinking about it, I took out 300 yuan from the handkerchief and put it in the drawer.Zhang's mother counted the remaining money, five thousand six hundred and eighty. After deducting others, she would have to work for a few more weeks.Zhang's mother put away her handkerchief, took a slice of fried steamed buns that her son had put on the table before going out, and chewed slowly, tears welled up in her eyes after a while.

My own life was miserable, and the innocent Xiao Yu was also implicated. When the child was so old, after fighting with others when he was four years old, he went home with a bruised nose and a swollen face and asked himself, why didn't he have a father?Mother Zhang would also like to ask this question about her husband who left without saying goodbye, leaving behind her one-and-a-half-year-old son, and ran away with a rich woman.

Thinking about the few months when my husband left, I was in a daze. If the neighbors around me were not looking after my son, I guess... Mama Zhang wiped away her tears. It’s okay. Who doesn’t have highs and lows? Living in a building, I spend all day at home and let my son and daughter-in-law take care of me, and it would be better to have a big fat grandson... Mama Zhang entered the dreamland in a beautiful fantasy.

Zhang Xiaoyu stared at the girl in front of her with a confused look on her face: "You are..."

Bao Jie looked like she saw an alien: "I haven't seen you for a day, and you forgot that I'm your monitor?!"

Zhang Xiaoyu scratched her head in embarrassment, her life is completely different from her studies, her memory is only excellent in her studies, as for remembering people...forgive him for only remembering people who appeared in front of him dozens of times on average... ....Zhang Xiaoyu said: "I'm sorry, monitor, I got confused when I read, and I forgot people's names when I looked up."

Miss Bao patted him on the shoulder understandingly, "It's okay, anyway, your memory is notoriously bad, I've already gotten used to it." Looking at the Oxford English dictionary in Zhang Xiaoyu's hand, she couldn't help asking: " Zhang Xiaoyu, you were suddenly possessed by aliens, right? The bottom-bottom English people actually started to read professional word dictionaries?!" Looking out of the window, he said again, "It's not raining red...... .”

Zhang Xiaoyu smiled shyly, "The high school entrance examination is coming soon, and I have to hurry up to fill in the gaps." Bao Jie smiled shyly in front of Bancao's straightforwardness, couldn't help holding her breath and took a deep breath, and after three seconds said: "Shall I help you?"

"Of course!"

Miss Bao took Zhang Xiaoyu to the stairs of the library, the place where there was no sound was the place to read, if the noise was too loud, she would be unanimously condemned and attacked by eyes.Miss Bao took out a pack of handkerchiefs and tissues in preparation, handed one to Zhang Xiaoyu, and spread out the tissues on the stairs herself.The two sat on the stairs and discussed English with their voices suppressed.

The squad leader is worthy of being the leader of the first class. He speaks concisely and fluently. With just a few words, Zhang Xiaoyu, who has opened his mind, has led into the world of English.No wonder so many people in ancient times were vying to be the apprentice of a famous teacher. It turns out that the apprentice of a famous teacher will give a lot of experience points when they get started.Bao Jie kept talking about the various tenses under the three major tenses of the present, the past, and the future, and stopped talking dryly.

Zhang Xiaoyu went to buy a bottle of water very perceptively.

Bao Jie thanked her and took the water. After taking two mouthfuls, she revived with full blood and said, "I'm exhausted! I'm hungry after talking so much. I'm going back to eat first!" Zhang Xiaoyu hurriedly said, "It's all me. Negligence, pestering you not to let go, how about I treat you to dinner?"

The squad leader turned her mind exquisitely, thinking about what to say so as to not only take into account the boy's face, but also not poke at the boy's difficult family situation.Seeing her pondering, Zhang Xiaoyu knew what the monitor was worried about, and a warm feeling surged up in his heart, and said, "Don't worry, a bowl of ramen is still affordable."

Seeing what he said, Bao Jie didn't hesitate to refuse, "Alright, I just want to try the ramen broth."
