73. Zhou's mother's "dream"
Zhou's mother really seems to be floating now, and she feels that the ground under her feet is soft.
This son of his own family is very smart, he doesn't write homework every day when he is in elementary school, he knows how to bow his head and play in class, and he can score 97 or 98 points in every exam, and occasionally he can break out a double hundred. When other children are still in "ABCD", he has begun to memorize words, and when he goes to swimming class to learn to swim the fastest, other children are still practicing breath-holding, and he has been able to swim decently, and he is also the fastest in learning to draw, and other children are still drawing stick figures, and he has begun to draw still life sketches.
It can be said that from childhood to adulthood, the husband and wife have had infinite hopes for this son. hopes that he will one day be able to leap into Jackie Chan, surpass his grandfather, and become the most promising child of the Zhou family.
For this reason, the couple even took out the thousands of dollars they had saved from working for several years to pay him the school choice fee, and transferred them from the school district of No. 7 Middle School to the school district of No. 6 Middle School. The sixth middle school in junior high school is a very good school in Beitong, and the couple hopes that their son can grow up better in a better school.
However, everything began to change when he entered the sixth middle school.
He scored fifth in the class in the entrance exam, and he also became the representative of the math class, and the whole family kept praising him for his talent, and the couple was happy for several months. As a result, when the results of the first midterm exam in the first year of junior high school came out, the couple was dumbfounded.
No. 30 in the class?
She asked him why his grades were so poor. His answer was that he made a mistake and did not read many questions carefully.
She understood.
His son is good for everything else, but he is a little careless and not serious enough. When I was in elementary school, I couldn't get double hundred exams, and I was deducted a lot of points because I didn't read the questions carefully. She is used to this, so she agrees with her son's explanation.
So they waited, waiting for the final exams of the first half of the first semester of junior high school.
Then, the test results came out...... Everyone was dumbfounded.
The 50th place in the class can be described as a plummet, and the grade ranking has fallen out of five or six hundred, and he has completely become a poor student.
That night, the couple talked to him for a long time, but they parted unhappily. Because of this, her husband beat his son in a fit of rage, and even broke several mop handles, but so what? If you don't study well, you can't learn well.
Then there is the first half semester of junior high school, the second semester of junior high school, and the third semester of junior high school...... This child, who gave their husband and wife infinite hopes, ended up disappointing them infinitely. With a score of 451 points in the high school entrance examination, no school in the city is willing to have such students except for the fourth and fifth middle schools that have art classes. The husband and wife were sad about this, begging their grandfather to tell their grandmother, and finally learned from others that they could send their children to No. 3 Middle School for a high price.
The couple was overjoyed by the news, but upon further inquiry, they were frightened by the high tuition fees.
That's the number that let them smash the pot and sell iron, and if they go to the sixth middle school before, let them spend all their savings, if they go to the third middle school...... That's really going to erode all the old books.
However, it may be the nature of every parent, they can really give everything for their children.
In the end, the husband and wife decided that even if they really smashed the pot and sold iron, they would let their children go to the third middle school.
This is a bet, the bet wins, the whole game is live, but once the bet is lost, it is the whole game lost. And maybe this home will never be able to turn it over again. Of course, they don't want to gamble, but if they don't gamble at this time, not only the children will leave regrets in the future, but also their husbands and wives will leave regrets.
In order not to leave regrets in their lives, they finally made the decision to let their children go to the third middle school - even if they smashed the pot and sold iron.
It was at this time that the turning point appeared.
First of all, his own children suddenly seemed to have opened their minds, and they actually made up for the gap in tuition fees by selling barbecued sausages, so that their family did not have to sell their houses and land; and then they relied on the remaining more than 5,000 yuan to invest in Internet cafes with others, earning back more than 100,000 yuan a month.
When she heard the news, she couldn't believe her ears.
However, it was all true, and the money had already been deposited into her bank card.
Later, after knowing the news of her layoff, she was still her son, and proposed to let herself make hamburgers and fried chicken, and the planned store has not yet started, but she is very confident now, because the experience of selling breakfast at the school gate during this time made her understand that once this hamburger fried chicken is made, it is definitely a very profitable business.
She couldn't help but wonder what happened to her son, why there was such a big change all of a sudden.
However, if these changes were not enough to really shock her, then today's parent-teacher conference has completely shocked her.
In the final analysis, she still cares about her son's academic performance, in her opinion, making money is something that their husband and wife should worry about, and it is of course good for her son to give advice, but she still hopes that he can really catch his grades.
Her heart's desire...... It's finally happening.
Last night at home, when her son said the phrase "not very well in the exam", she still felt that it was a little taken for granted. How could she have imagined that this was a "scam". When Teacher Guo Jing told her son's real test results, she only felt that her brain was buzzing. Sitting there, I felt that everything was unreal, and I walked up to the podium to speak or something, and I used to only see other parents go up, but today it was my turn...... She even wondered, could this be a dream, and if it was, let's go up and talk about it. Be generous, be brave, it's just a dream anyway, even if it's embarrassing, it's just a dream.
To this day, she still feels that all this is so unreal. Looking at the parents who were bustling downstairs, and then looking at the son who was following her, Zhou's mother couldn't help but reach out and pinch her arm.
......
"Oops!"
Zhou's mother couldn't help but scream in pain.
Zhou Fangyuan, who was supporting his mother, subconsciously turned his head and saw his mother retracting her right hand.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
Zhou Fangyuan was a little confused, so he asked.
"What am I doing...... Zhou's mother muttered, and then immediately raised her eyebrows, "What am I doing? I want to ask, what are you doing!"
As she spoke, Zhou's mother stretched out her hand and grabbed the top of Zhou Fangyuan's head and shook it continuously. Zhou Fangyuan's head shook with his mother's hand, and he had no power to resist at all.
"You're embarrassed to ask me what I'm doing, and I want to ask you, what do you want to do? Huh? Do you want to make your mother ugly? Why don't you tell the truth? Are you going to be angry with me?"
In the end, even the two hands were used, and Zhou Fangyuan was like a flat boat in the wind and waves, swaying, and he had completely lost the courage to resist.
"Mom, Mom, I was wrong, I was wrong!"
Zhou Fangyuan shook for a while, only to feel that his head was dizzy, and he hurriedly reached out and pressed his mother's hand.
"Didn't I want to surprise you? How did I know that Mr. Guo would suddenly attack, I was wrong, I was wrong, okay? I will never do this again. ”
He hurriedly begged for mercy.
To be honest, his intentions were good, but it was a bit excessive. It's also a shame that my mother doesn't have a heart attack, otherwise she wouldn't have to get sick directly.
"Not like this?" Zhou's mother's eyebrows were still standing, "No, if you dare not study hard, I won't have to beat you this time, I will break your leg first." ”
"How is that possible!" Zhou Fangyuan hurriedly shouted, "I promise, next time, I will tell you the test results as soon as possible, I will definitely not lie, and I will not give you this kind of surprise, okay?"
"Hmph, that's like a sentence. ”
Zhou's mother snorted lightly, and finally let Zhou Fangyuan go.
Just when their mother and son were making a fuss, other parents and teachers passed by them, looking at the mother and son who were full of funny attributes, even if they were not in a good mood, they also showed a smile.
They can all understand Zhou's mother's mood at this moment, and they also hope that they and their children can also have such exchanges, especially those children with poor academic performance, they are envious of Zhou's mother, and envy Zhou's mother for having such a sensible and lost son.
Looking at Zhou Fangyuan's mother and son again, they played in the stairwell for a while, and the two continued to go downstairs.
At this time, there were not many parents around them, the large army had already gone down, the corridor was much quieter than just now, they deliberately walked very slowly, and when they went down to the second floor, there was no one next to them, and in the entire stairwell, only the mother and son of the Zhou family were left.
"Son, don't forget what Mom said just now. Mom is so happy, you can get such a result, Mom is really happy. My son is finally sensible and has finally grown up, and my mother is happy......"
Zhou's mother suddenly spoke, as if whispering, and said softly.
Zhou Fangyuan could feel that the hand that his mother was holding with him suddenly used a little force, as if he was afraid that everything would disappear now.
Zhou Fangyuan sighed in his heart that he was too a bastard in his past, and he disappointed his mother for several years. Now that I suddenly got a pretty good result, it makes my mother so happy, what if it's a better result?
Think about it again, how disappointed my parents were in my previous life?
He was glad that he had made the right decision, even if it was for the sake of his mother's words, everything he did was worth it.
"Mom, the happy days are coming, where is this, don't worry, your son and I will continue to maintain it in the future. Not only that, but I also want to make more progress, when I take the college entrance examination, I must get a result that amazes everyone, so that all the eyes that doubt me and doubt you will be obediently withdrawn for me. ”
Zhou Fangyuan said in a deep voice, his voice was not loud, but it was sonorous and powerful.
"Well, Mom believes in you. ”
Zhou's mother nodded.
Then the mother and son looked at each other and smiled, and a faint warmth echoed between the mother and son.
