Chapter 18: Unspeakable Sickness
At the end of the first semester, Mu Zhen found that the classmates in the class deserved to be the elites selected by the county, each with their own strengths and abilities. All the students in the class, for Mu Zhen, everyone can be called a teacher.
After a semester, Mu Zhen not only quickly learned to wash clothes with her classmates, but also learned how to fold the quilt like a rotten block, with corners and edges. In life, his classmates are like big brothers and sisters, leading him to learn a lot of common sense of life that can be used for life, and weaving a lot of beautiful lives that he has never been exposed to with his father. In addition to the strengths of life, that is, the excellent performance of classmates in learning, before the future, Mu Zhen thought that his motivation to borrow books from Ma Sanye to read was enough to surpass any child of the same age in the village, but at this time, Mu Zhen found that among the classmates, the degree of diligence in learning made him really smack.
Li Xuemin, a big eye is quite big, but she is the only girl in the class who wears glasses, usually does not speak much, and always habitually smiles when she sees people, she is such a quiet girl, the first place in the class at the end of the semester, her hard work, no one in the class can compare, see her every day, in addition to the necessary meal time, she is almost all studying with books, every afternoon extracurricular activity time, except for rainy days, she will always see her sitting in the yard under the plane tree reading. In addition to Li Xuemin, there are also Ren Pengfei, Gao Jiasen and several other students, who can also be compared with Li Xuemin in their hard work, and their grades are naturally among the best in the class.
Liu Guanqun, the final exam score in the class is only half a point away from the first place in the second place, although his ranking did not win the class like his name, but his study time is only limited to the classroom, his spare time, it seems that his hobbies and interests are always accompanied. Despite his high altitude, he is active on the basketball court, like a clever monkey, as vigorous as flying, which makes many senior students applaud; in art class, he draws pencil landscapes vividly, and paints graceful images of girls; although he is a boy, he can cut all kinds of intricate flower figure cutouts, if you don't see him cut with your own eyes, you really can't imagine that this is from a teenager's hand.
Zhu Chengguo, a little man who always likes to whistle in his spare time, usually never works very hard, let alone has a book in his hand, and whenever he does his homework between classes, he always likes to hum a small tune, as if he is careless about his homework, leisurely, better than a leisurely stroll. Especially the homework arranged by the English teacher to write an English word every day, others write ten words a line, but he only writes seven, so that those beginner words can be firmly imprinted in his mind, and he can write them out silently at any time. Although he usually doesn't see how hard he works, he just completes the homework assigned by the teacher, but his grades in all subjects are never below 90 points, and his overall score is firmly in the top five in the class.
Zhang Guoqing at the same table usually does not work very hard, and the results of each subject do not show special excellence, but the talent in politics makes Mu Zhen envious, after all, it is the same position, Zhang Guoqing's every move is in Mu Zhen's field of vision, he has never seen him deliberately read politics, every time he can always score more than 90 points in each exam, and even once he almost got a perfect score, Mu Zhen's curiosity is driven, more than once asked him why he can take so many exams without working hard in politics? As long as you listen carefully in the class and use some heart, you will remember it!" Mu Zhen privately thinks that he studies politics as if he studied mathematics himself, and he can easily memorize those formulas and theorems in class, which may be everyone's nature!
There is also Li Kegang, the life committee member of the class, who is recognized as a big man in the class, so he is in the last row, and he usually does not smile, but for the orders of the classmates' three meals a day, he is well arranged, and there has never been any mistakes.
These are Mu Zhen's role models for learning, naturally Mu Zhen also has her own good skills, that is, in the study of Chinese and mathematics, the results of a single subject in mathematics can always be maintained in the top three, several exams since entering the school, the lowest time is only two points difference, failed to get a full score, the language benefits from his extracurricular reading, especially in composition, Mr. Zhang, who teaches Chinese, has repeatedly praised his composition not only with clear layers, but also full of organization, and has repeatedly asked the teacher to read his composition as a model text. But Mu Zhen's overall score was not so satisfactory, and she was always hovering in the top 20 of the class. This also made him very distressed, in addition to the occasional headache caused by the hospitalization, unlike other classmates is that he does not like to move, every time in physical education class, he will always sit on the side of the basketball court as a spectator, and every two weeks a cold will always come as promised, befall his weak body, and every time the cold caused by allergic rhinitis, thick nasal discharge, headache, often come together, these symptoms, relying on a few pieces of "APC" sent by the school clinic has categorically not solved the problem. At this time, he would always go to the clinic run by a young man not far from the school to see a doctor, so that when the doctor saw him coming, he would always greet him and say, "I have a cold again!" This made the young Mu Zhen feel very embarrassed, but he had to accept the young doctor's diagnosis and treatment.
Many years later, Mu Zhen clearly remembered the few medicines given by the doctor, the small white tablets were chlorpheniramine, slightly yellowish oxytetracycline, if accompanied by a headache, a few more tablets would be added that were very similar to chlorpheniramine, the tablets were slightly thicker than the white tablets of chlorpheniramine - prednisone, which was these three-flavor Western pills, and after eating it comprehensively, it was very effective for his allergic rhinitis.
As everyone knows, the side effects of these drugs will have a great impact on a growing child! Prednisone is a hormone drug, and the doctor has repeatedly told him that he will stop using this medicine immediately if he does not have a headache, but for the young Mu Zhen, he does not know the side effects of this medicine, and sometimes he will inevitably take a few more tablets, thinking that he can consolidate the curative effect. Yellowing oxytetracycline is an antibiotic that can cause yellowing of children's teeth if eaten too much. The biggest impact of these three flavor pills on Mu Zhen is this anti-allergic drug - chlorpheniramine, don't look at it as just a small white pill, which can make an adult groggy, let alone a child, in the few days after taking the medicine, Mu Zhen always felt that she couldn't open her eyes and couldn't keep her spirits. According to the class schedule, mathematics and Chinese classes are always arranged at the front of each day's class time, so in these two classes, Mu Zhen can still insist and drive away that fatigue, but for the geography and botany classes, because they are all arranged near the end of school, for him, it has become his sleeping class. In those days, the most incomprehensible thing for him was that the cold always favored him, lingering.
Mu Zhen will be here environment, more than once summed up as the cradle of successful learning, the learning atmosphere in the classroom needless to say, every extracurricular activity time, look at the green corridor of the campus, under the tall plane tree in front of the classroom, will gather the students who study diligently, in his heart, regard all the students as their mentors and friends, pure feelings, inseparable friendship, here to sow unforgettable seeds. However, the illness that he was suffering from at this time, although he could not say anything to stop it, seriously affected his pace of progress, and he always felt that he had more than enough strength to learn, and it seemed that it was more difficult to take a step forward in learning than to ascend to the sky.
