Chapter 7 Teasing the Family
On the way home, Lin Guorong walked quickly, and his excitement was beyond words.
His son's miraculous performance gave him an inexplicable excitement to win the jackpot.
It's like a hunter in the mountains who happened to get a kitten in the mountains one day, and originally kept it as a hello-kitty, but half a year later, the kitten grew up overnight, only to find out that the little kitty was actually a tiger!
Are you surprised, surprised, surprised?
Lin Guorong held Lin Miao's hand tightly, and after almost trotting out for a hundred meters, he happened to see a tricycle passing by, so he simply didn't leave, and shouted to the coachman in his voice, and hugged his son into the car.
Getting into the car, Lin Guorong first reported the address to the coachman in an impatient and disdainful tone, and then turned his head and asked Lin Miao: "Ah Miao, who taught you all these things you wrote today?"
Lin Miao had already prepared her words.
He pretended to lower his voice mysteriously, and whispered, "Dad, I tell you, you can't tell anyone. ”
Lin Guorong nodded and promised without thinking about it: "You say, Dad will definitely not tell others!"
Lin Miao then leaned into her father's ear and said something that would sound absolutely nonsense to normal people: "I've been dreaming these nights, and an old grandfather taught me ...... in my dream."
However, it was this kind of words that even elementary school students could not believe, Lin Guorong immediately sat upright, straightened his waist, and confirmed to Lin Miao with a serious expression: "Really?"
Lin Miao's acting skills were super and nodded heavily.
Immediately, he saw that Lin Guorong's face obviously showed an expression of "Lao Tzu believes".
There is no doubt that Lin Guorong's reaction from beginning to end looks like a person with a defective IQ. But the fact is that there has never been a shortage of half-bucket "cultural people" like him who believe in ghosts and gods.
Knowing the son is better than the father, the same reason, knowing the father is also the son.
Lin Miao knew too well what kind of person his father was, so he would make such an unreliable statement.
Just as the teacher asked Nobita, if you have 50 yuan and ask Fat Tiger to lend you 50 yuan, then how much money will you have in your hand. Thinking about this question from Nobita's point of view, even if he knew that the reference answer would definitely be 100 yuan, he would still choose to answer that there was not half a penny left.
Because "It's not that I don't understand math, it's that you don't understand Fat Tiger at all!"
So if there is anyone in this world who understands what Lin Guorong is thinking better than Lin Miao, it may only be Lin Miao's uncle, Lin Guohua's old boy.
Lin Miao's targeted answer made Lin Guorong look solemn along the way.
After the tricycle rode through the streets and alleys to the small alley of Lin Miao's house, after the father and son got out of the car, Lin Guorong told Lin Miao instead: "No one is allowed to say this in the future, do you know? If you say it, it won't work......
"Mmmmmmmmmm......mm While still complaining silently in his stomach, he said that the leaders of Dongou City are actually quite eye-catching, and they have not promoted Lin Guorong to an important position, which can be regarded as making great contributions to the party and the people.
Lin Miao's family lives in a courtyard surrounded by alleys.
In the memory of the previous life, this alley will usher in a major demolition in 2000, and all the houses within a radius of one kilometer will be pushed to rebuild, and then two years later, a large area of new modern commercial buildings will emerge on the south side of Jiangbin Road.
Lin Miao's family moved out in 1999 when the demolition project was just started, and he sneaked back to see it once, when the people's livelihood in this place had withered, and only those who really had no money to move away still stayed here to survive, hoping that the government could subsidize more relocation and demolition funds. And Lin Miao's image memory of his hometown will forever stay on the dilapidated scene full of ruins and broken walls.
After leaving for nearly 20 years, Lin Miao revisited his hometown, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed in his heart.
The complaint about Lin Guorong was also suspended.
At this time, it is already time for dinner, and the aroma of oil smoke wafts from every house in the streets and alleys.
Lin Miao carried a small schoolbag, followed behind his father, entered from the gate of the small courtyard that was only one person wide, and walked to the two-story small house at the end of the courtyard, and arrived at the home where he had lived for 12 years in his previous life.
The room is not designed to be anything, it is a long transparent room facing south, the lighting is quite poor, and the first floor is dark all the year round without turning on the lights.
The wooden door, painted with faded red lacquer, was now wide open.
There was a woman's unpretentious laughter in the house, Lin Miao's mother, who was between 30 and 40 years old and had always lived heartlessly, seemed to be chatting with a neighborhood aunt.
Lin Guorong pulled Lin Miao from the back door of the house to the front door, and the woman who was laughing with Jiang Ping saw that the fierce Lao Lin was back, and hurriedly said to Jiang Ping: "Your husband is back, you can eat, I should go back too." ”
"Okay, I'll tell you in the afternoon. Jiang Ping smiled, turned around, picked up Lin Miao, kissed him on the face, smiled brightly and said, "Good son, why did you come back so late?
"I just went to sign up today, and I didn't go to class. Lin Guorong frowned and closed the door.
As soon as the door was closed, it was dark.
Jiang Ping said unhappily: "What are you doing, everyone is at home, what door is closed in broad daylight?"
As he spoke, he opened the door again.
Lin Miao's two parents, one is super machismo, the other is mild princess disease, they have been married for decades, and they have quarreled and smashed the pot countless times, if Lin Guorong hadn't had a stroke on the street later, it is estimated that it will not stop until one party is cremated.
Jiang Ping's simple action of opening the door caused Lin Guorong's dissatisfaction.
But this time Lin Guorong didn't get mad, but stopped with a serious face: "Come upstairs with me, I have something important to tell you." ”
Jiang Ping was stunned for a moment, and obediently followed her husband upstairs.
Lin Miao stepped on the wooden staircase connecting the upstairs and downstairs with a little nervousness, the staircase was short and smooth, and he was very worried that he would accidentally fall down - even in his previous life, he had gone up and down thousands of times, and it seemed that he had never fallen.
Carefully climbing the 20-step stairs and going upstairs, the light suddenly improved.
The old but not broken sofa, the coffee table with photos under the glass, the outdated wardrobe that has been used until it was buried in the rubble, and the 24-inch TV that can only call up a total of 8 channels and move with the family to another house.
The furniture that caught the eye had long since been annihilated in Lin Miao's memory.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes again, he wouldn't even remember that he still had these things in his house.
Lin Guorong pulled Jiang Ping, sat down on the sofa, then glanced at his son, couldn't help smiling anymore, and announced with a happy face: "Our son, as soon as school starts today, he skipped a grade, and the teacher said that he can go directly to the sixth grade!"
"Let's talk nonsense! he wants me to wipe his ass after pooping!" Jiang Ping broke out with a look of disbelief.
Lin Miao's face darkened.
How can I be such an independent person and not be able to wipe my ass when I am about to go to elementary school?
Slander! Utter slander!
Lin Guorong saw that his wife was neither convinced nor convinced, and his temper immediately came up, and he said to Lin Miao: "Son, write a few words to your mother! Let her see what my son is!"
"You gave birth to a fart, you just had a matter of ten minutes, he came out of my belly, okay!" Jiang Ping snapped for tat.
Lin Miao's head was full of black lines.
Nima, what did I go through when I was a child......
Lin Miao endured not saying anything, took out a pencil case and a brand new note from her schoolbag, spread them on the coffee table, looked up and asked Lin Guorong, "What are you writing?"
Lin Guorong said anxiously: "Whatever, write whatever you want!"
Lin Miao thought for a while and wrote a sentence: "Whatever, write whatever you want." ”
Lin Guorong didn't appreciate the humor in the room at all, so he hurriedly picked it up, shook it in front of Jiang Ping, and said excitedly: "Look, your son's writing is about to catch up with me, right?"
"Don't move, let me see!" Jiang Ping snatched the note from Lin Guorong's hand. After taking a closer look, I couldn't help but be stunned.
Lin Guorong said with a smug face: "Look, this is called Tiger Father without Dog! This morning, Ah Miao took a Chinese and a mathematics exam in school, and the sixth-grade math problem scored a full score of 100! Chinese wrote an essay, and they Principal Miao admired it when she saw it, and she said that if she let her write it herself, she might not be able to write as well as Ah Miao. ”
The more Jiang Ping listened, the more he felt, and said in disbelief: "Are you talking nonsense, when did Ah Miao learn this? I see that he is playing with those toys every day......
"Eh, you don't understand these things when I tell you, Ah Miao, right?" Lin Guorong and Lin Miao made a look of "only we understand".
The corners of Lin Miao's mouth twitched, and she nodded stubbornly.
"So to put it that way...... Our Ah Miao is a third-grade student today?" Jiang Ping, who didn't believe it a few seconds ago, actually showed a happy face after a few seconds, and accepted her son's latest personality lightly and happily.
Yes, it's so open, it's so nervous, it's so bold.
Lin Miao's own mother, Ms. Jiang Ping, has been like this for decades, no matter what happens, it has always been like this, only asking about the result, regardless of the process, the way of thinking is so simple and crude that it is incomprehensible.
Lin Guorong pretended to nod deeply.
Jiang Ping was excited, hugged Lin Miao is crazy kiss, and shouted and laughed: "My son is smart! Mom really didn't suffer in vain when she gave birth to you, you will be in the third grade as soon as school starts, hahahaha......"
Lin Guorong wanted to pretend to be Sven at this time, and said with a straight face: "Light, light voice! A woman, what is yelling like, we should be low-key, don't shout everything so that the whole world knows." No cultivation at all!"
"I don't care, my son is cultivated!" Jiang Ping rolled her eyes, and asked Lin Miao with a smile, "Ah Miao, you have to know your mother well when you have a chance in the future, how difficult it is for your mother to give birth to you, when I gave birth to you, your grandmother didn't let me eat enough......
"Okay, okay, why are you talking about this now!" Lin Guorong immediately interrupted Jiang Ping's complaint, and then changed the subject, "By the way, why haven't you made lunch yet?"
"I'm not waiting for you to come back, I don't know what you want to eat!" Jiang Ping said in a heartfelt manner.
Lin Guorong can see this kind of thing, took out a handful of gross tickets from his pocket, handed it to Jiang Ping and said: "You go to the vegetable market to buy some cooked food, buy two bottles of beer and come back, let's eat better at noon today and celebrate." ”
"Good. Jiang Ping simply took the money neatly and ran downstairs with a grin.
Humming a little song and coming out of the house in an extremely happy mood, Jiang Ping walked lightly towards the alley of the vegetable market 30 meters away from her home, and when she passed by a house with an open door, she suddenly stopped again.
Looking into the room, seeing the woman who was chatting with Lin Guorong when he came back just now, Jiang Ping couldn't hide the pride on her face, and said loudly to the people in the room: "Ah Fang, my Ah Miao has skipped a grade......!
