Chapter 52: The Head of the Chicken and the Tail of the Phoenix
Outside the house, the sun was shining white, and the sun burned so much that the yard couldn't help but crack its mouth and pant for breath; the tomatoes, cucumbers, beans, and small greens in the vegetable garden were also wilting, holding their skirts, and shyly retracting; the faint and cool breeze, blowing from which direction, swept over the roof, through the trees, and quietly wandered in the space; the house with a wooden roof, warm in winter and cool in summer, was cool and comfortable at noon, and the clothes swayed briskly back and forth—
Liu Jianshe looked a little embarrassed after being praised by "Brother Xian", and boasted: "It's nothing, as long as we have seen it, there is nothing that can't be done!" "Brother Xian" smiled "hehehe" and said: What my father taught is that listening to your words is better than reading for ten years -- I should also learn from you, only what I can't think of, and there is nothing I can't do! Then he gave Liu Jianshe a thumbs up and said curtly: However, the furniture is very good, antique, I like it!
Saying that, Zheng Lijuan took a pot of rice, a basin with a diameter of about 20 centimeters, and handed it to "Brother Xian", who couldn't help but exclaim when he saw it: "Auntie, are you feeding pigs?" Zheng Lijuan smiled "hehehe" and grinned and said: "Eat—it's not much, you can't mix it in the bowl, and you can't go home and you're hungry!" "Brother Xian" took the basin, looked at it, sighed, and said: But I can't make up for this meal!
Liu Jianshe couldn't help but smile when he looked at it, and explained: Let's eat, I eat more than that pot for every meal? Zheng Lijuan was stunned for a while, and asked continuously: Are you going to leave again, aren't you at home during the summer vacation? "Brother Xian" was embarrassed to get up, and said curtly: Seeing that you are all well, I will rest assured, I will leave tomorrow morning, and I just want to work again during the summer vacation!
Before Zheng Lijuan could say anything, Liu Jianshe said solemnly: Don't worry, the two of us are fine-it's okay to work part-time, exercise more, but there are two principles, the first must be personal safety, and the second is to take the time to come back to see your aunt, right? After hearing this, Zheng Lijuan also echoed the voice, then looked at Liu Jianjian, waved her hand to him, and said: Don't say it, let Brother Xian eat first, he is already hungry! Liu Jianshe lay on the recliner and said jokingly: Guixian, eat, a young man, the amount of food is not as good as mine! "Brother Xian" smiled and buried her head in the basin, and Zheng Lijuan sat aside to help "Brother Xian" pluck the garlic.
After eating, the two of them plunged into the kitchen, Zheng Lijuan prepared dinner, and "Brother Xian" loved to eat scallion pancakes; Liu Jianshe was busy chopping meat filling, preparing the dumpling filling for tomorrow's "Brother Xian" departure; "Brother Xian" finished eating a pot of noodles, feeling bloated like a pregnant woman, and after resting for a while, he took the initiative to ask Ying, went to pick two loads of water, and watered the vegetable garden. The sun has set in the west, and the flowers and vegetables in the garden are also shaking up, sucking the moisture of the soil vigorously - "Brother Xian" looked at the scallion pancakes that had just come out of the pot, and still couldn't resist the temptation, so he accompanied Zheng Lijuan and Liu Jianjian, gobbled up another meal, and then leaned on the back of the chair contentedly, touched his round belly, and "hummed and chirped" the tune.
Xiao Jun didn't know when he appeared in the yard, carrying a big watermelon - or Zheng Lijuan saw it first, and shouted with a smile: Xiao Jun - "Brother Xian" only then did he get up, stand up, and meet him; Xiao Jun saw Zheng Lijuan and Liu Jianjian, and politely shouted: Teacher Zheng, Uncle Liu, I don't have anything to bring you, I see that the watermelon is good, so I will bring one to you to cool off!
"Brother Xian" couldn't help laughing, and joked: Xiaojun, I don't feel like you, didn't I often treat this as my own home in the past, why are you still so polite today! Xiaojun looked at "Brother Xian" and said embarrassedly: Wasn't that ignorant before, and often caused trouble to Teacher Zheng and Uncle Liu!
Zheng Lijuan and Liu Jianshe also echoed, and the two took turns to explain: What's the trouble--sit down-Have you eaten dinner?Xiaojun nodded, and as he spoke, Zheng Lijuan said to "Brother Xian": Brother Xian, go and cut the watermelon, you can also eliminate the food, and we will also cool off together! "Brother Xian" asked Xiaojun to sit down, picked up the watermelon and went into the kitchen, and the three of them were greeting Xiaojun about the situation at school and the situation of the adults at home-
"Brother Xian" symbolically ate the smallest piece, and watched Xiaojun sitting in front of Zheng Lijuan and Liu Jianjian, feeling uncomfortable, so he took the initiative to say: Let's go out and go around--Aunt-Dad-You two can rest! Xiaojun quickly stood up, already eager to try, Zheng Lijuan smiled and nodded, and the two walked out of the courtyard, "Brother Xian" shouted loudly: Dad-Brother Qiang is not at home? Liu Jianshe heard it and shouted: It should be there!
The two of them walked up to the embankment of the Qishui River, and Xiao Jun said with a smile: "Uncle Liu, I don't think there should be any big problems, and my mental state is quite good!" "Brother Xian" sighed and said helplessly: The main thing is that I am a little far away, and I can't quench my thirst when I am far away, and I can't take care of it if there is an emergency at home! Xiao Jun also sighed and said with a sigh of relief: You don't have to worry, Teacher Zheng and Uncle Liu are still young - besides, Brother Qiang and I are still in front of me, and there is also Senior Brother - don't worry!
"Brother Xian" breathed a sigh of relief and said: How are you, how are you at the Municipal Teachers College? Xiaojun smiled happily and said happily: It's okay, my academic results are good, in line with my original thoughts, I'd rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail - work hard for another year in my sophomore year, and prepare to take the college entrance exam——
"Brother Xian" asked suspiciously: "What is going on?" Xiaojun smiled "hahaha" and said: You undergraduates naturally don't have to worry about these things - we are the second batch in our province, and it is also a rare way for junior college students to realize their undergraduate dreams; the second half semester of the sophomore year will be examined, and the main examination will be four subjects: college Chinese, college English, and two professional courses; a bit like the college entrance examination, after the examination, fill in the volunteer according to your own grades, and it will also be divided into one. Second, there are not many volunteer schools, and the schools that are willing to accept students from the college are different every year.
"Brother Xian" said thoughtfully: That's pretty good, it's equivalent to the second spring of junior college students, how are you preparing, the last chance, take advantage of it - how many more years will you go after being admitted?
While talking, the two of them had already walked to the bank of the Fanqing River, and "Brother Xian" signaled to go back, so he walked back the same way, and then said: Brother Qiang's house, are you going, you just had a child?
Xiaojun then looked a little proud, and even said with some pride: The college entrance examination is bound to be won, I am different from the past, the results of the whole department for two consecutive semesters ranked first, outstanding class cadres, three good students and other honors; I heard that in the sophomore year, the school is different, the school system is not the same, some schools are 2 + 2, some schools are 2 + 3, the last session is like this, one college seems to be another 3 years, two books are two years!
After listening to this, "Brother Xian" asked suspiciously: What about the graduation certificate, is it a four-year undergraduate program, or a two-year or three-year undergraduate program?
