Chapter 92 Chapter 92: Into the Iron Mill
After a few days of revision, the final exam begins.
Since everyone worked hard, there didn't seem to be a sad face when the report card was issued.
Confidence spreads across most people's faces.
As soon as he got home, Lao Wu looked at Xiao Zhen's report card and was quite satisfied.
Although English still failed to climb to 90, it has improved, so Lao Wu is no longer worried.
Because he knew that Xiao Zhen was facing the pressure of going to school, the second uncle rarely brought Xiao Yong to visit the door during this winter vacation, after all, the brothers still had a lot of time to play together in the future.
And Grandma is no longer addicted to the upgraded card game on the Internet, because Grandma often can't figure out what cards to play during the 30-second time limit, which often leads to random cards being played by the system. On the other hand, Grandma was slow typing and could barely interact with those online poker friends.
So, I made a plan for the daily schedule:
I woke up at 9 a.m. and finished eating the noodles or dumplings cooked by my grandmother and started reading Chinese or English.
I started doing math problems at 10 a.m.
Lunch and rest, 14 o'clock to start Chinese and English papers.
From 19 to 20 o'clock in the evening, follow Lao Wu or the real mother to answer the answer.
Other odd hours are taken out to memorize words and read outside of class.
However, this plan was not implemented even for a day, and the time to get up directly on the first day was delayed until 9:30 o'clock, so the final task could only be completed at a discount.
After doing this for a week, Lao Wu couldn't stand it anymore, so he said, "Get up early tomorrow morning and follow me to the factory to have a look." ”
So, Xiao Zhen was picked up by Lao Wu before he woke up, and after putting on a cotton jacket and finishing the egg noodles prepared by Lao Wu, he was dragged onto the motorcycle by Lao Wu.
After running on the road for half an hour, he came to the steel factory where Lao Wu worked, and Xiao Zhen looked up and saw that the good guy, the entire factory area was full of huge chimneys.
Seeing Xiao Zhen staring at the chimney, Lao Wu smiled and said, "Haven't you seen the big guy? ”
"Yo, Lao Wu, your son looks like a little apple. At this time, a red motorcycle also stopped on the side, and an uncle wearing sunglasses on the motorcycle said.
"you, what a little apple, little real, call this person Uncle Wang. Lao Wu patted the man's helmet and said.
"Uncle Wang, good morning. Xiao Zhen said.
"Haha, hello. Uncle Wang said.
"Okay, then let's go to your side first, and let the children see the world. Lao Wu said.
"Don't be funny, it is clearly stipulated that children are not allowed to enter the production area and construction area. Uncle Wang said.
"Is your office there?" said Wu.
So, Lao Wu took Xiao Zhen to Uncle Wang's place of work.
"You stay here first, if you have anything to ask Uncle Wang, I'm done to call you to dinner." Lao Wu said.
So, Xiao Zhen looked at Uncle Wang.
"Young man, do you want to read?" said Uncle Wang.
"What a book. Xiao Zhen said.
"Here's a copy of How Steel is Made. Uncle Wang said.
So, Xiao Zhen began to open the book, and spent the morning immersed in Ostrovsky's writings.
"Gone, eaten. When it was close to noon, Lao Wu's voice suddenly came.
And Xiao Zhen found that his stomach was almost growling.
Walking out, looking at Lao Wu's dirty uniforms and a few black oily stains on his face, Xiao Zhen couldn't help but feel distressed.
So, Xiao Zhen turned back and went back to where to wipe Lao Wu's face.
"What do you pretend, what can these two pieces of paper wipe off?" said Lao Wu pretending to be angry, but his heart was warm.
Eating the working meal in the canteen, Lao Wu asked Xiao Zhen: "How is it?
"This braised pork is not as good as grandma's, and there seem to be too many potatoes. Xiao Zhen said.
"Maybe I saw you here today, and I made braised pork. Lao Wu said speechlessly.
"Anyway, no bowl of rice is easy to eat. Lao Wu thought about it and said.
"I see. Xiao Zhen said.
"I hope I do. Lao Wu thought about it again and said.
After eating, Lao Wu continued, Xiao Zhen put it at Uncle Wang's place, and left again.
Looking at Lao Wu's back and looking at the dirty work clothes, Xiao Zhen fell into deep thought.
"What's the fuss? Uncle Wang watched Xiao Zhen sit on the side and didn't move, so he said.
"Why are my father's work clothes so dirty, but yours so clean?" Xiao Zhen said as he looked at Uncle Wang.
"Well, he's going to the scene to direct the operation, and if I have a problem here, I'm going to go to the scene. Uncle Wang said.
"Do you have to be so dirty when you go to the scene?" said Xiao Zhen.
"yes, look at the picture. Uncle Wang took out a photo book.
Looking at the few people in the photo, the clothes are all dark gray.
Xiao Zhen said suspiciously: "No, your clothes are not gray." ”
"It's full of oil and so on, so it looks gray. Uncle Wang said.
"This is me. Uncle Wang pointed to the one with the dirtiest clothes and a black face.
"You can be here normally, why do you have to get so dirty. Xiao Zhen asked incomprehensibly.
"Take the lead, otherwise how could anyone follow and believe me? Moreover, they couldn't handle that thing at that time, and they had to rely on me to do it with all my might. Uncle Wang said proudly.
"Are you going to say, 'No bowl of rice is easy to eat?'" Xiao Zhen thought about it and said.
"Huh, you're pretty smart?" said Uncle Wang with a smile.
"Haha, I guess. Xiao Zhenye said with an embarrassed smile.
"Haha, it's okay, it's a good thing to realize it, the children can be taught, and the children can be taught. Uncle Wang said happily.
So, Xiao Zhen continued to watch "How Steel is Made".
In the afternoon, Lao Wu changed into neat clothes and came over and said, "Let's go, Lao Wang, go drinking, tonight is mine." ”
Uncle Wang looked at Xiao Zhen holding "How Steel is Made" and refused to let it go, so he said, "Okay, little friend, Uncle gave you this book, I hope you can remember what you learned today." ”
So, a group of three people and two motorcycles came to an open-air barbecue stand.
After ordering two plates of snacks and grilling a few dishes, Lao Wu and Lao Wang began to feast.
Xiao Zhen happily ordered four crispy roast chicken thighs, and the food was full of oil.
However, the happy time is always short-lived, and all of a sudden I got on Lao Wu's motorcycle and walked home.
"How is it, do you know what to do tomorrow?" asked Lao Wu with a little wine.
"I know, there's no such thing as an easy bowl of rice. Xiao Zhen said with a smile.
"Yes. This is the focus of today, and it is not in vain today. People, in this world, none of them are easy. Only by continuous hard work can it be done. Lao Wu said.
Xiao Zhen looked at the moon in the sky and said, "Well, I see. ”
So, starting the next day, Xiao Zhen got up at 8:30 every day, and the study plan began step by step.
After listening to the little real performance from his grandmother's mouth, Lao Wu also laughed happily.
After watching "Red Rock" and "How Steel is Made" in my spare time, I discussed the contents of the two books with my grandparents, which also made my grandparents very happy.
And Xiao Zhen's English has also improved somewhat, and his reading voice is becoming more and more fluent.
One day, due to the special situation in the factory to deal with, Lao Wu went on a day shift and a night shift in a row.
However, at nine o'clock in the morning, I felt at home, and when I heard Xiao Zhen's gradually fluent English voice, Lao Wu seemed very relieved.
