Chapter 22: Good News
Although it is doubtful whether this watermelon is produced in Xiaoliang Mountain, it is really sweet and sandy.
Directly digging the melon pulp and holding the bowl to eat the result is faster, plus this melon is really delicious, I can't help but take one bite after another, my heart is tied to the mouth full of melons, and I can't care about talking, my cheeks are bulging, I don't look up when I eat, only the melon seeds fall in the enamel basin and make a scattered sound.
I ate most of the bowl in one go, breathed a long sigh of relief, and the melon seeds also spit out leisurely, and then someone squeaked, but the result was still bickering.
"The flower water is smoked to death, puff-"
Spit melon seeds.
"Plop - not more bites? pounce - "
"You have to feed the mosquitoes outside, and you have to fight - you are sick. ”
"Plop - take advantage of the coolness, how comfortable is this little wind blowing?"
"It's not hot in the house. ”
"Can that be the same, it's a natural wind, and then there's flutter - you didn't vote against it just now?"
"I don't know as much as you!"
Cheng Wei felt that she was a man, and she was older than Su He, and she was usually asked for small things, but she couldn't help but ow.
Fighting his mouth, he finished a bowl. Dig a second bowl.
"I can't. "Su He surrendered first.
"No, I still buy so much!" Cheng Wei didn't complain or open his mouth as usual, saying that, his speed also slowed down, and it could be seen that he was already a little reluctant to eat.
Trying to kill most of the bowl, Cheng Wei picked up the bowl and put it down, he really couldn't do it anymore, and said bullishly, "Whoever buys it is responsible." ”
Zhou Hao finished eating the third bowl alone, dug another bowl, and then couldn't eat it anymore.
This binge-eating, the three of them all ate round bellies, a stomach of sweet watermelon, and a full burp full of melon aroma.
Although I eat very strongly, I have a different kind of hearty feeling.
I was always too lazy to move when eating, so I pushed the bowl and basin aside, spread out my limbs, and lay on my back side by side on the mat. There are stars shining in the sky, like flowing broken silver, the Milky Way is faint, frogs are singing and insects are singing, and there is a stomach full of melon fragrance, and I don't want to do anything, I don't want to say anything.
After a long time, Zhou Hao took the lead in opening his mouth, and his voice was a little hesitant, "Why don't I eat another bowl?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he burped a lot, and the honest boy obviously ate too much.
Despite their hard work, they only wiped out two-thirds of them.
"No, I don't. ”
Su He and Cheng Wei spoke together very tacitly, but what they said next was obviously not so tacit.
"Whoever buys it will clean it up!" Cheng Wei said.
"It's okay, the mountain people have their own tricks. "The old god of Sushan is here.
"Cut, waiting for your clever plan!"
The gentle evening breeze blew, mixed with the smell of nightshade and mint grass, and the three of them sighed with satisfaction, after eating watermelon, and then blowing a cool breeze, this taste could not be more comfortable.
Su He's method was to squeeze the juice of the remaining watermelon, and there didn't seem to be much of the melon flesh after it turned into liquid, so it was easily put into the refrigerator.
"It's over. Cheng Wei originally wanted to take this opportunity to teach Su Xiaobian a lesson, but he didn't expect this girl to really come up with a trick, he said to Zhou Hao, "I have a bad premonition." ”
Let someone find a new solution, only to be afraid that this product will go further and further down the road of greedy urinal piles.
Zhou Hao patted Cheng Wei's shoulder wordlessly, unfortunately, he thought the same way.
The problem of storage is solved, and the remaining melons can be eaten calmly.
In Su He's words, the remaining melon should be "blown and eaten" - recently she was reviewing the old version of "Journey to the West" with the summer file, and she also turned out the hardcover "Journey to the West" given by others in the bookcase and reread it.
When I was a child, I only liked to watch Monkey King fight monsters, which was happy and lively, but now I feel that some details are more interesting when I read it again. The language is especially expressive, such as this sentence "blow and beat carefully", as soon as you hear this, the goblin is a good comrade who can live and love life!
Cheng Wei listened to Su He's comments after reading, and only spit out several watermelon seeds into the enamel basin with a bang, and he didn't even bother to vomit.
Although there is a nonsense guy sitting next to him chattering while eating, Cheng Wei can't deny that it is a refreshing and comfortable thing to sit under the eaves on a hot summer afternoon, looking at the wild flowers and weeds in the bright sun, and eating a bowl of iced watermelon that has just been taken out of the refrigerator.
Su He sat beside him, with a spread out "Journey to the West" on his lap, holding a watermelon bowl in his hand, soaking in a large basin of water with his feet afraid of heat, splashing for a while, and a toy little yellow duck floating on the water, humming an old song softly in his mouth, "On the banyan tree by the pond, I know that I am crying summer...... Dragonflies flew over in the sun, and the green rice fields were ...... Looking forward to the holidays, looking forward to tomorrow, looking forward to growing up in childhood......"
Cheng Wei put aside the bowl he had eaten, lay down on the mat, raised his legs and shook his feet, squinted slightly at the blue sky in the distance, unconsciously picked up the tune around him, pursed his lips and whistled, the singing next side paused for a moment, and the next moment he sang more and more vigorously, and his eyes unconsciously bent up with pleasure and loneliness.
Time passed quietly in such eating, drinking, bickering, and playing, and a summer vacation had come to an end unconsciously.
One evening near the end of the holiday, Su He received a rare call from Su Jinghai, the content was very simple, it was about Su He's school.
In fact, this question was the first to come to Secretary Tao's mind.
Su He Xiaosheng was assigned to an ordinary middle school near his home according to his household registration, which was the case in his previous life and the same in this life.
Due to the change in Su He's attitude after being reborn, her relationship with Secretary Tao has also become a lot closer.
In the routine phone call every evening, the conversation between the two has also developed from the original brief conversation to daily small talk. A few days ago, Secretary Tao heard Su He talk about the topic of the imminent start of school, so he thought of this problem, and then mentioned it to Su Jinghai.
Things in the world are like this many times, policies are policies, and the specific implementation can be flexible, especially for elementary school and school districts.
Whether it is with the relationship and connections of Su Jinghai or He Meijun, it is very simple to make some changes to the issue of children's junior high school.
But neither did.
It's not that these two people are strictly following the rules, or because of other considerations.
A lot of things are not so complicated in Sue and their family.
The reason is very simple, that is, the couple is busy with work, and they both ignore the matter of their daughter's junior high school, or to put it more bluntly, they invariably forget the grade their daughter attends.
Later, when they remembered it, it was already the second semester of Su He's second year of junior high school.
Of course, for Su Jinghai and He Meijun, even if Su He has reached the second year of junior high school, it is just a trivial matter that wants to transfer her to the provincial focus.
But Su He refused that year.
At that time, she was already accustomed to and familiar with her school life, and in the second half of the second year of junior high school, she was parachuted from an ordinary middle school to a provincial key class, which required a rather difficult adaptation process, and the results were not necessarily good.
This is for practical reasons.
Another aspect is that Su He was still a little arrogant at that time, feeling that although her academic performance was not very good, it was not bad, and this was still in the case that she did not work hard, as long as she was willing to put more effort into her homework, she could also be admitted to a good high school.
However, before she could work hard for long, her parents divorced, and she married into her stepfather's house with her mother as a drag bottle, entering the period of adolescent rebellion ahead of schedule. Although he went to a provincial key high school with the relationship between his mother and stepfather, he completely gave up his studies out of rebellion...... Finally reborn.
Now this question has once again been placed in front of Su He, whether to continue to go to an ordinary middle school according to the assignment, or to transfer to the provincial focus.
If Su He had to boast about the merits of her parents in her education, then it must be said that they were relatively democratic at times.
For example, in the choice of school.
Many parents don't even ask their children for their opinions.
So looking back, Su Jinghai and He Meijun did well when they became parents again after the divorce, and it is not without reason that they have the quality of being a good father and mother, it just depends on whether they want to or not.
Su He pretended to think about it for a while, and then told Su Jinghai that no need, the homework in middle school is not difficult, and she also hopes to have a relaxed middle school time, and then be admitted to a key high school with her own efforts in the future. If she feels that she can't cope during this time, she will ask her parents for help.
This is actually just part of her true thoughts, but it is enough for Su Jinghai to accept it, Su Jinghai accepts it, and He Meijun must have no problem on his side.
Su He still knows his parents well, as long as they give them a reasonable reason, and this reason is obtained after thinking about it, and it is not an idea that comes out of a whim or a temper, then it will most likely be approved.
Su Jinghai really didn't say anything and ended the call neatly.
Su He then called Secretary Tao to express his gratitude.
Four days later, Su He called Secretary Tao again.
This time, Su He called Tao Junfeng to ask him to come forward and help her buy a house - the uncles and aunts in the alley brought good news to Su He, and someone was finally going to sell the house. Due to her current age, she has to ask an adult to act as her representative.
The location of the house is not very good and relatively remote, however, this is not a problem for Su He, who bought it only for demolition. The house is not in good condition either. To put it simply, there is grass growing on the house, and the only advantage is that the area is not small, and it also comes with a large yard. However, in the same way, the yard and the courtyard walls are covered with wild grass.
If it weren't for the dense crowding around, it would have added a little popularity to this old house, and if you change to a more remote place, you can go to see the house in the dead of night, and it will be a haunted house.
According to the surrounding elders, the former owner of the house was an old man in his eighties, with no children and only a distant nephew. A few years ago, the old man died of illness, and the house fell into the name of his nephew.
The current owner of the house, that is, the old man's nephew, has a house himself, so naturally he will not come to live here.
