Three days later, on September 30, 1985.

On this day, because it is close to the eleventh day, both the school and the unit have a half-day holiday. So before 12 noon, Zhang He ran home with his schoolbag on his back.

As soon as he entered the house, he threw his schoolbag into the sofa, and then sat down at the square table as if he was very unhappy, and said to his grandmother, who was serving porridge to the house: "Grandma, can I not go to this preschool class." It's so boring, I can teach the teacher. Can you tell Grandpa not to let me go? ”

The old lady ignored him. Just glared at him and turned around and went to the kitchen, and then brought a plate of fried radish and a plate of fried vegetables into the house, then sat on the stool opposite him, picked up the steamed bun and took a bite with a displeased face: "You have been chattering for a few days, why do you go if you don't go to school?"

Zhang He said aggrievedly: "I can teach in school, I really don't want to waste time sitting there, I have this time to cook two meals for you every day." ”

The old lady raised her eyebrows and said, "Clean nonsense! Can you grow your skills by cooking at home every day? ”

Zhang He pouted and got off the stool on the ground, but he didn't wash his hands obediently, but walked to his grandmother's side, shook his grandmother's arm, and hummed as if he was half-dead: "Well-, grandma please, don't let me go." The school is so stupid!"

The old lady turned her head and said, "Why are you stupid?"

Zhang He let go of his grandmother's arm, took a few steps back and said, "Do you think this is stupid?" Then he raised his two little arms, like a stupid penguin, and began to shake his body and sang: "Wowhahaha, wowhaha, everyone has a smile on their faces." ”

"Hehe, it's stupid. You big head!" the old lady snorted.

is also, let Zhang He, a "child" who doesn't look big, but is close to the age of confusion in his bones, go to school on time and sit on time. And in order not to make the teacher suspicious, I always remind myself to slow down my writing speed and write every word as "ugly and weird" stroke by stroke. had to hold hands with the children to rehearse the song and dance of "Wahaha" in a "cheerful" manner, which was indeed a torment for him.

But how could the old lady know about his "suffering"? Therefore, if Zhang He complained in the past two days, the old lady would ruthlessly suppress him. Naturally, he wouldn't let go of his mouth at the moment, so he had to comfort him and said, "Stupid is stupid, but aren't all children like this? Do you think whose children don't go to school? Hehe!" The old lady said, and did not forget to gently snort Zhang He's head with her hand.

"Hey" Zhang He raised his head helplessly and let out a long sigh, and then grabbed his grandmother's arm and begged: "Please, you can help me talk to my grandfather, don't let me go to preschool." I really know everything. ”

The old lady immediately put away her smile, and at the same time shook off Zhang He's hand and said, "What's the matter with you kid? It's not over yet? You will, you will, what will you do?"

"I will..." Zhang He was about to fight back, but suddenly found that his grandfather walked in from the gate of the courtyard, so he immediately changed his goal, and instead opened the door of the house and ran to the courtyard to pick up his grandfather.

"Grandpa. When Grandpa Zhang He saw his grandson running towards him, he immediately squatted down with a smile on his face, and opened his arms at the same time. When Zhang He rushed into his arms, he picked Zhang He up and asked with a smile: "How are you at school today? What have you learned? Tell grandpa." ”

When Zhang He heard this, he immediately fainted and lost consciousness, leaned back, and slumped on his grandfather's arm with his eyes slightly closed.

"Yo" Grandpa Zhang He couldn't help but bend his leg immediately, quickly protected his back with his hand, and exclaimed, "What are you doing here? ”

Zhang He drooped his head and slowly straightened up, and muttered listlessly: "Didn't you ask me what I studied in school? ”

Grandpa Zhang He gently slapped Zhang He's buttocks with his hand, and said with a smile: "Hehe, it's nonsense, there is no positive shape, the school can teach fainting!"

"Hey" Zhang He sighed and said: "Grandpa, how can I say that you will believe me, I really know what I am taught in school, can you not let me go to this preschool class?"

"Here we go again!" The old man glanced at Zhang He helplessly, then carried him into the house, and then put him and the bag in his hand on the sofa, and then sighed: "How can you say hello! You don't want to go to school for just a few days? How did the school recruit you? Is there a classmate bullying you, or is the teacher too powerful?"

"Hmph, I ignore him! I haven't come back for the past two days, I just don't want to go to school, I just don't want to go to school, I say I can do anything, and I don't know what he will do? I think he's just stupid. Grandma Zhang He glared at Zhang He and interjected.

"Are you making Grandma angry again?" asked Grandpa Zhang He with a smile.

Zhang He glanced at his grandmother, and said with a stiff neck: "No! I can do anything, or will you test me?"

"Hehe, let me test you?" Grandpa Zhang He glanced at his wife with a smile, then turned around and walked to the washstand, and while washing his hands, he turned back to Zhang He and said indifferently: "Then you recite a poem to Grandpa." ”

"Okay, then listen, I'll take a long back for you. When Zhang He heard this, he immediately jumped off the sofa and said to his grandfather:

"When will you rest in the fight for fame and fortune? Wake up early and sleep late is not free. Riding a donkey, a mule, and a horse, the prime minister of the official residence looked at the prince. is only worried about food and clothing, so why is he afraid that Yan Jun will take the hook? ”

Zhang He changed the strategy of "point to point" two days ago, and immediately finished reciting the poem without even hitting a single stumble.

The reason why he suddenly became unscrupulous was not because the "encounter" in school made him unable to endure it anymore, nor was it because he was dismissed by his family for three days of grinding and rejecting it, which made him a little anxious, but because as a person who came back from time, he knew better than anyone the truth of "impermanence of life" and "fleeting opportunities". He really didn't want to waste any more time just to be a "good baby" who made his family smile, and he wanted to take advantage of this God-given opportunity to change his family's fortunes. Even if it's just cooking a few extra meals for his family, he feels that it is more meaningful than going to school. Although he also knew that it was impossible for an adult to agree to not going to school, he still wanted to try his best, at least worthy of himself who had crossed back.

But he didn't think about it, but after hearing the poem he memorized, his grandfather didn't seem to be surprised, but smacked his head proudly and said, "Okay, my eldest grandson! Then he smiled at Grandma Zhang He and said, "Hehe, Bei Bei is smart! This poem in "Journey to the West", I only took him to read it a few times two days ago, and he will be able to do it. ”

"Halo". Zhang He only felt that there were black lines in front of him, and he couldn't help frowning and looking at his grandfather and recalled in his heart: "When did you take me to read it? Why don't I remember? This is obviously something I memorized when I grew up and thought it was good." ”

So in order to "prove his innocence", Zhang He immediately took out a piece of paper and a pen from the drawer of the square table in front of him, and without waiting for his grandmother to make a speech, he said: "I can not only memorize, but also write!" It's just that he didn't dare to write too fast, and he still wrote slowly like a school.

But even so, Zhang He felt that the atmosphere around him began to change, he seemed to no longer be able to hear his grandfather's breathing, and could only hear the illiterate grandmother ask the stunned grandfather one by one: "Is he writing right?"

Grandpa frowned and didn't speak, just stood next to him and continued to watch him write.

Zhang He secretly glanced at his grandfather while writing, and then his heart tightened, and he immediately said secretly: "It won't really scare grandpa, look at grandpa's eyes like seeing a ghost, am I too impulsive." But if I don't do this, how can my grandfather believe me? ”

Zhang He subconsciously glanced at Grandpa Tian's house in the south room outside the house, and then did not finish all the poems silently, only wrote the first four sentences, put the pen on the table, and pretended to be very proud and said to grandpa: "I just said that I can teach the teacher, will I not have to go to preschool this time?"

Zhang He saw that his grandfather was staring blankly at the words on the paper and didn't speak, so he tentatively pushed his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, do you believe me this time? Hey..."
