walk through spring with you

Yan Ran returned home, sat at his desk after taking a shower, and started doing homework.

The shame of seeing the bottom one in the exam in the morning, although after Xiao Zichong's comfort, relieved a little bit, making him look like he no longer cares about it, but his heart is still like being bitten by ants Biting, bringing pain to him.

Yan Ran has read a book about ants. Some ants can secrete toxins, which can shock people to death.

Will I also go to death in this heart of thousands of ants?

If you don't work hard, will you be eaten to death step by step?

The shame brought about by the gap in grades not only bites Yan Ran's heart, but also brings him the motivation to work hard.

He has been very serious in class all day long, and the teachers in the experimental class are also top-notch in the school. He feels that he understands what the teacher said, and what he has to do when he gets home at night is to review the whole day's lessons , and then do the questions to consolidate the knowledge points.

Yan Ran's grandma and mother are both teachers. There is nothing wrong with Yan Ran's learning habits and learning methods. If he wants to say where the problem is, he himself knows that it is a bad brain.

He read Xiao Zichong's Chinese books today, Xiao Zichong read all the texts in the first unit, marked the pronunciation of all the unfamiliar words, and then read the first text twice, Xiao Zichong Cover the book, and he can almost memorize the article.

The same is true in mathematics class. When the teacher was lecturing, he only glanced at the homework in the book, and wrote down all the answers in the case of mental calculation.

The experimental class will not use the exercises in the books as homework after class. The homework after class is all in the difficult exercise book. In just 10 minutes after class, Xiao Zichong can complete the exercises in the exercise book. All the homework was completed quickly, as if those problems were addition and subtraction within one hundred.

During the 10 minutes after class, Yan Ran couldn’t even finish the homework in the textbook. He needed to keep flipping through the books to compare the concept explanations and formulas in the textbook. This extended formula that can be understood by repeated practice is not a problem for Yan Ran. The problem is that he often does not know why he deduces it that way.

After sitting in a row with Xiao Zichong, Yan Ran knew more clearly that there is a big difference between people's brains.

And this is something he can't change no matter how hard he tries.

Besides, Xiao Zichong worked so hard.

When Yan Ran looked up to Xiao Zichong in the past, he thought that Xiao Zichong's grades were all due to his intelligence, and he didn't necessarily work hard. I didn't waste time, and I read a lot of extracurricular books, many of which were so advanced that Yan Ran couldn't even understand their names.

Yan Ran also asked him, "What's the use of reading so many extracurricular books?"

Xiao Zichong glanced at him in surprise, the surprised look made Yan Ran feel ashamed and flustered at this moment, because Xiao Zichong's eyes clearly said "Why must it be useful?" I consider myself a very utilitarian person.But Yan Ran knew that he was trying his best because he had to cope with the exam, so he couldn't do the thing of "reading useless books".

Xiao Zichong seemed to realize that Yan Ran was hurt by his eyes, and he quickly organized his words to explain, "The knowledge in these textbooks we are learning now is the most basic knowledge points, these knowledge points, It was summed up by previous scientists in the process of understanding the world, and we learn these things to understand the world by standing on the shoulders of these giants, right?"

Yan Ran nodded, Xiao Zichong's words were derived from a famous saying of a famous person.

Xiao Zichong looked at Yan Ran with concentration and tenderness, "The knowledge points in the books we have learned are just a small part of our understanding of this world. If the truth of this world is covered by a dense network To describe it, these knowledge points in textbooks are just a few points on this dense network. Reading more other classic books will increase your understanding of the world. Only when you know enough, can you be clearer. Know exactly what this network might look like, and also discover other points that have not been discovered by others before, which can expand human understanding of this network."

Yan Ran looked at him blankly, not quite understanding.

Xiao Zichong seemed to understand that he didn't understand, so he said: "I just want to know more about things, maybe I know what the world is like and why I exist. That's probably the case. And this can't be found in our textbooks. .”

Yan Ran looked at him lying on the desk and said, "Oh."

He thought, he has things that he doesn't understand, and Xiao Zichong has things that Xiao Zichong doesn't understand. Although the standpoints are different, they all exist in the end.

Yan Ran opened his exercise book, and the teacher assigned ten questions in the exercise book as homework after class. Xiao Zichong finished these questions when the math class was over. Yes, but Yan Ran hasn't done any of the questions. Before, he only finished the exercises in the textbook.

The desk lights reflected on the teaching materials and exercise book, and Yan Ran was startled when he was doing the first question, because he found that the exercises and what was said in the teaching materials seemed to have nothing to do with each other. He read the simplest question three times The topic, I don't know what the topic is talking about.

Yan Ran, who was about to work hard, panicked instantly.

At this time, grandma came in with milk and fruit. She put the milk and fruit on Yan Ran's desk and said, "Come on, my good grandson, eat something and drink the milk."

Yan Ran looked annoyed at the grandma who came in without knocking at all, frowned and said, "Grandma, I'm doing my homework."

Grandma smiled and said, "I saw it, so good."

Yan Ran said in pain: "Why don't you go out."

Grandma nodded and said, "Let me see what homework you are doing?"

Yan Ran pushed the exercise book to grandma. Grandma has presbyopia and she didn't wear glasses. She held the exercise book and looked at it for a while, and said: "Oh, this question is really difficult for you now. Grandma is old. Not anymore."

Yan Ran thought to himself, can't I just think about it, but I couldn't get angry, so I had to say: "Grandma, can you go out? I have to do the questions."

Grandma sighed: "Oh, you still despise me. I think if you show this question to your mother and your father, they may not understand it."

Yan Ran thought to herself that I didn't dislike you, it was just that you interrupted my time.

When grandma went out, she said, "Drink the milk quickly."

**

Yan Ran had no choice but to put mathematics aside, and continue to review the other few subjects taught today. He reviewed a few subjects at school, and only needed to do the most difficult mathematics and physics when he returned home at night, and then recite today’s lessons. For English words, just look at the preview of the next day's class before going to bed.

He recited his favorite English, previewed the knowledge points to be learned the next day, and then read physics. Now only mathematics was left. He carefully read the contents of the textbook again, but he still couldn’t do it. There was no answer to the questions in the exercise book, so he had no one to ask at this time, so after thinking about it, he left the bedroom.

It was already eleven o'clock at this time, his father had just come home, and his mother had just come back not long ago.

Yan Ran took the math book and exercise book draft paper to the living room, and Li Mei, who was sitting in the living room while watching TV and applying a facial mask, said, "My dear son, how is your class today?"

Both she and Yan Tianhua were told by Teacher Hao Yan that Yan Ran did not do well in the test, but it is best to use encouragement education, because Yan Ran is not a naughty child, and stick education is meaningless to him.

Yan Ran stood there and said in embarrassment, "It's okay."

Yan Tianhua smelled of alcohol, probably drunk, came over and hugged his son and kissed Yan Ran forcefully, Yan Ran frowned and pushed him away.

Grandma Yan is already asleep. Aunt Du and Grandma Yan share a bedroom. In order to accompany Grandma Yan, she always goes to bed early.

Li Mei came over and scolded her husband who was drunk, and pushed him to take a bath.

Yan Ran waited for the two of them to finish their quarrel, and then went to the phone to call Xiao Zichong's house on the sixth floor.

His mobile phone was confiscated by his parents because he was going to school, but he didn't have much place to use his mobile phone, so he didn't feel sad.

It was Xiao's father who answered the phone, and Yan Ran said anxiously: "Mr. Xiao, I am Yan Ran, and I want to find Xiao Zichong."

Papa Xiao said in surprise, "It's so late, what are you looking for?"

Yan Ran groaned twice and didn't know how to answer. Xiao's father thought he had something to hide, so he said, "I'll see if Xiao Zichong has slept. If he hasn't slept, I'll ask him to answer the phone."

Yan Ran waited anxiously, and after a while, Xiao Zichong's voice rang through the receiver: "Yan Ran?"

Yan Ran was ashamed and uneasy, and his heart was fluctuating. He felt that it was wrong to disturb Xiao Zichong at such a late hour, but deep down in his heart, he longed for Xiao Zichong's response, and he said, "Well, I... I I want to ask you for a favor."

Xiao Zichong was already yawning, "What's the matter?"

Yan Ran: "I want to confirm, are the math problems assigned by Mr. Hao today really from this exercise book? There are three fill-in-the-blank questions, three multiple-choice questions, and four major questions."

Xiao Zichong thought for a while and said, "I don't really remember. I did all the questions, but I didn't remember which ones. How about asking someone else?"

Yan Ran: "I'm not familiar with other people."

Xiao Zichong thought about it, indeed, among the students in the class, even though it was emphasized many times that they should not target the poor students, there were still not many who were willing to talk to Yan Ran.

Xiao Zichong said, "I'll call and ask someone else."

Yan Ran hurriedly said: "No, no."

Xiao Zichong: "Otherwise, if you do everything that can be done above, there will be no problem."

Yan Ran said in embarrassment: "I don't know it at all. Can you tell me a little bit, just one thing, and I can deduce the rest by myself."

Xiao Zichong: "..."

The light was not turned on in the living room, Xiao Zichong sat on the sofa, looked at the indicator light on the phone, he was silent for two seconds, and said: "Why don't you come to my house, I will finish the questions for you, and I will go to bed again .”

Yan Ran, like the grace of the saints, quickly agreed.

He took a bunch of books and notebooks, told his parents to ask Xiao Zichong questions, and ran out.

Li Mei looked at the wall clock in the living room, "It's so late, I still run upstairs."

Xiao Zichong turned on the light in the living room, and went to wait for Yan Ran at the door, Xiao's father frowned and said, "What's the matter, he came to see you so late."

Xiao Zichong glanced back at him: "Go to sleep. We have to discuss things."

Xiao's father went back to his bedroom and closed the door.

When Yan Ran reached the sixth floor, seeing Xiao Zichong standing at the door waiting for him, he smiled at him shyly and gratefully.

Xiao Zichong: "Come in."

The two arrived at Xiao Zichong's bedroom, Xiao Zichong let Yan Ran sit in his chair, and he stood beside him, saying, "Let me see which question it is."

Yan Ran turned the exercise book to the first lesson, and he pointed to the first one.

Xiao Zichong took his draft paper, grabbed a pen, and scribbled the calculation process on the draft paper, "That's it."

Yan Ran looked at his calculation process, still at a loss, and was about to copy the answer into his own book, Xiao Zichong said, "Do you understand?"

Yan Ran was too embarrassed to speak.

Xiao Zichong said: "Everything you don't understand, you have to tell me."

Yan Ran nodded quickly.

Xiao Zichong added: "Talking to people is also a learning process. If you don't understand what I'm saying, it's also my problem."

Yan Ran quickly nodded again and said, "I didn't understand this."

Xiao Zichong bent down and wanted to explain the specific steps to him, but seeing Yan Ran's nervous expression, he changed his method and began to talk about why the questioner asked this kind of question, what is the purpose of this kind of question? What kind of test points is what kind of knowledge do you want the person doing the question to have, what kind of knowledge to use, and how these knowledge are combined to solve the problem of this question.

Yan Ran listened very carefully, and gradually understood why this topic, which seemed to be very different from the knowledge points in the textbook, was put in the exercise book of this lesson.

Xiao Zichong said: "Think about it carefully, and look at it according to my thinking on solving the problem, and calculate it yourself, can you?"

Yan Ran quickly took the draft paper and deduced the calculation step by step.

Xiao Zichong took out a book from the nearby bookshelf, leaned against his desk, and began to flip through the book.

It took Yan Ran 10 minutes to finally straighten out the problem-solving steps that Xiao Zichong wrote just now. Based on the idea of ​​the first problem, he did the next two problems similar to this one. After finishing, he looked up. Xiao Zichong only saw the cover of the book that Xiao Zichong was holding, which was called "Reminiscing about Things Past".

Xiao Zichong found that he had finished, so he put the book aside, looked at the three questions he had calculated, and said, "These are all correct, do you have any more questions to ask?"

Yan Ran felt that it was very late and he should go home, but he really didn't know how to do other questions, so he had to look at Xiao Zichong: "I can't do this either."

Xiao Zichong had no choice but to continue explaining the questions for him. When he encountered a little difficulty, he broke the questions down and let him familiarize himself step by step until he understood the whole problem-solving process.

After the lecture, Xiao Zichong asked Yan Ran to calculate and familiarize himself with the question types, while he took the novel and continued reading.

When Yan Ran finished all the ten questions assigned by the teacher, it was past twelve o'clock. Yan Ran's cheeks were flushed because of delaying Xiao Zichong for such a long time. He got up from the chair and wanted to go home.

Before leaving, he asked Xiao Zichong again: "What book were you reading just now?"

Xiao Zichong: "Did you say "Reminiscence of Things Past"?"

Yan Ran nodded.

Xiao Zichong: "A novel. But it's too stream-of-consciousness, you may not like it. If you want to read it, I'll lend it to you after I finish reading it. But this book is very long, and it may take me a while to read it. Finished."

Xiao Zichong sent Yan Ran to the door, and Yan Ran thanked him outside the door: "Thank you."

Xiao Zichong smiled: "It's nothing. I think this exercise book may be a bit difficult. You can ask the students in the ordinary class which exercise book they use. You bought it and made their exercise book After the exercises, do ours, this way, it will be more conducive to your understanding of those exercises."

Yan Ran quickly nodded, and when he was going down the stairs, he looked back at Xiao Zichong again, almost falling down the stairs because of this, Xiao Zichong had no choice but to go up the stairs and say, "Go back quickly, watch your feet."

Yan Ran's mood was heavy and light, on the one hand he was embarrassed and shy to cause trouble for Xiao Zichong, on the other hand he was happy that "I might be special with Xiao Zichong".

He didn't know what Xiao Zichong's feelings for him were, but he knew that Xiao Zichong's kindness to him was special, because in class, there were others who came to Xiao Zichong to discuss problems, or asked him what he was watching. What book, but Xiao Zichong rarely responded to these people.

Xiao Zichong closed the door, and when he went back to his bedroom to sleep, Father Xiao came out of his room and said, "Why did you discuss the matter with Yan Ran until so late? It's past twelve o'clock!"

Xiao Zichong: "I'm sleepy. I'll go to bed first."

Xiao's father said: "How can Yan Ran delay your time so that you can talk about the topic? You don't get enough sleep. I will ask Yan Ran to hire him a tutor at home."

It seems that Xiao's father didn't sleep at all before. Not only did he not sleep, but he also went outside Xiao Zichong's room many times to listen to the two of them talking.

Xiao Zichong was a little angry and said, "Are you eavesdropping on our conversation?"

Xiao's father said: "You two have quite a voice, am I eavesdropping? Besides, I'm worried about my son, is it wrong?"

Xiao Zichong said: "You worry about me, and eavesdropping on my conversation with Yan Ran are two different things!"

Xiao's father was instantly embarrassed, but the way he and Xiao Zichong got along was like this. Xiao Zichong had no sense of obedience to his father since he was a child, and Xiao's father did not have the authority over his son. speak.

Xiao's father had no choice but to admit defeat in the end: "Go to bed quickly. You must never give Yan Ran a lecture like this in the future. What time is this?"

Xiao Zichong said: "In this case, I will have no friends, no friends with common topics."

Father Xiao said forcefully: "You can find someone with similar grades to yours, in your class, anyone else can."

Xiao Zichong said, "You don't understand at all."

Father Xiao said seriously: "What I don't understand? Yan Ran's family has money to do with it. Regardless of Yan Ran's grades, his family will arrange his future properly, as long as Yan Ran is not like that bastard from the Cao family." , then Yan Ran will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life, go to a good department, and be a rich and idle person. And what is your pursuit? If you just spend your life waiting to die like this, your mother and I think you just don’t go If you commit a crime, you can achieve it even if you don’t work hard. Xiao Zichong, you and Yan Ran are not the same kind of people.”

Xiao Zichong's face was sullen, and his eyes, which were usually as pure as the clear lake water reflecting the sun, were now heavy, like a deep ancient well.

Xiao Zichong said: "One type of person, one type of person! As long as people are people, aren't they all one type of person? What do you think of me? It's just that you and Mom don't like Yan Ran's parents, so you have to ask me like this .”

Xiao's father blushed instantly with anger, "Xiao Zichong, say it again, ah, see if I can hit you!"

Xiao Zichong said with a stern face: "I'm not someone who likes to say things twice. If you have to listen to a sentence twice, it means that you are not calm and rational, not me!"

Papa Xiao: "..."

Father Xiao stared at his son in shock, while Xiao Zichong stood there confronting him.

Father Xiao: "If you dare to tell your mother that, I will respect you as a man!"

Xiao Zichong frowned, he realized that he really didn't dare to tell his mother what he said to his father, but his mother would obviously have the same opinion as his father, thinking that he should not go with Yan Ran so close.

Xiao's father saw his son's expression softened, and said, "I haven't seen you and Yan Ran have any dealings before, why are you so close all of a sudden?"

Xiao Zichong stood in front of his room door, thought for a while with his head down, and said, "I don't know either."

Papa Xiao sighed, "How about I ask Hao Yan'er to change your seat so that you don't sit with Yan Ran."

Xiao Zichong shook his head, "You don't understand. Yan Ran is a very good person. In this world, anyone can stab me in the back, but Yan Ran won't."

Xiao's father laughed angrily at his words: "You think you're a member of gangsters/societies."

Xiao Zichong said: "Since you don't take my words seriously, then there's nothing to talk about. I'm going to sleep."

He entered the bedroom and closed the door with a "bang". Father Xiao: "..."

Xiao's father couldn't sleep almost all night, and got up the next day in a state of desperation to cook breakfast for Xiao Zichong.
