Chapter 20: A slap in the face

Lin Xiao's mood at the moment is very complicated, there is the shame of choosing to escape irresponsibly, the joy of being recognized by his father, and the ambition to stand up again!

He knew his father was proud of him, but that was three years ago.

What he never expected was that even in what can be said to be the most decadent three years of his life, his father still believed in himself and was still proud of himself.

And her mother, although she has been complaining constantly, she has been fighting for herself.

As a mother who is one of the many living beings, compared to her father, she can be said to be very selfish, but if you look at it from the perspective of a mother, she is very great.

Her sentence "I don't want anything, I just want our family to smile and be fine!" completely shocked Lin Xiao.

This is the most simple maternal love of an ordinary woman for her child!

Father's love is like a mountain, and mother's love is like the sea!

"Father, Mother, I'm proud of you, I'm proud to be your son!" Lin Xiao said solemnly, and then pushed open the door, and the lights were suddenly released to their maximum.

"Xiaoxiao, you're back. ”

The second elder, who was busy cleaning up, suddenly saw the door open, Lin Xiao walked in, and immediately realized that something was wrong, and sneered.

Lin Xiao quietly walked to the side of her mother Li Yun, and then gently hugged her mother under the surprised gaze of the second elder.

"It's okay to laugh, I was just joking with your dad just now, it was a joke, yes it was a joke. ”

Seeing that Lin Xiao was particularly abnormal today, Lin Mu suddenly felt a little uneasy.

"Smile ......"

Father Lin also realized that something was wrong, and when he was about to speak, Lin Xiao spoke, "Mom, thank you for everything you have done for me over the years, I am very happy, I was just ignorant before......"

"Xiaoxiao, you ......" When Lin Mu heard Lin Xiao's words, she felt like life and death parting, and the uneasiness in her heart did not subside, but became more intense, and she immediately interrupted.

"Mom, don't think about it. Seeing her mother's somewhat flustered look, Lin Xiao knew that her mother must have misunderstood, so she hurriedly said, "I just want to say, from now on, it won't, I want to start again and start my new life." ”

Now he can only say this, otherwise it will be too domineering, and he is afraid of scaring his parents.

"That's right, your father and I just want you to be happy every day, and everything else is floating clouds!" Li Yun breathed a sigh of relief and said happily.

"Uh-huh, I will. ”

Then Lin Xiao began to slowly regain his previous feelings, although he began to feel uncomfortable, but he quickly got used to it, and then he had dinner happily with his parents.

After dinner, Lin Xiao felt that his body was always sticky and very uncomfortable, so he ran into the bedroom and took out a set of clean clothes, and slipped into the bathroom.

"Old man, today's smile is too abnormal, do you think he will be fine?" Hearing Lin Xiao humming a song in the bathroom, which had never happened in the past three years, Li Yun's face immediately became serious.

"In the past three years, he hasn't experienced anything, don't worry, we have to believe in Xiaoxiao. Lin Nanxin thought seriously and said, "But don't be too happy now, I'll see his state tomorrow." ”

"Mmmm, I hope this kind of smile can be maintained forever!" Li Yun nodded vigorously.

"Knock knock!"

Just when Lin Xiao was humming a song and taking a bath happily, an uninvited guest came to the house.

"Lala......"

Ten minutes later, Lin Xiao hummed a little song and walked out of the bathroom with brisk steps.

"Yo, what made you so happy today?" a familiar voice came from the couch in his living room.

Lin Xiao turned his head and looked, his expression instantly became helpless, "Why is she here again." ”

This is the mother of his classmate Han Bing, and also his neighbor, Qiu Xiaoqin.

Now Lin Xiao has a headache when he sees her.

Originally, the neighbors had nothing to do to hang out at the door, which was nothing, and it could also increase the friendship between each other.

That's a good thing!

It was okay at first, but since he started high school, Lin Xiao began to hate her more and more.

Because Qiu Xiaoqin likes to show off her son everywhere at every turn, she opens her mouth and closes her mouth to say how her son is, and Lin laughs loudly.

And if you don't listen, you can't do it, the neighbors, you don't look up and look down, and you always have to take care of the other party's face when you do things.

After all, Han Bing's grades are indeed very good, and now he can rank in the top ten or so in Lin Xiao's class.

Maybe it's because Lin Xiao was excellent before, and he was too scummy in the three years of high school, so he wants to redeem some sense of achievement.

Every time she takes an exam, Qiu Xiaoqin likes to go to Lin Xiao's house to visit the door, every time she comes, how is my Han Bing's exam this time, how is it in the grade, and how is it in the class.

After showing off, don't forget to ask, how did you do in this exam?

Not only was Lin Xiao uncomfortable, but the parents on the side could only feel distressed when they heard it, and said with a smile: "Xiaoxiao, did you hear it, learn more from Han Bing." ”

A slap in the face, if it's you, do you want to see her?

This time was no exception, seeing Lin Xiao coming out of the bathroom, Qiu Xiaoqin, who was sitting on the sofa, said with a smile: "Your monthly exam results are out, right?"

"Yes!"

Lin Xiao rolled his eyes and whispered.

He was tempted to shake his head and turn around and leave, not wanting to bird her, but out of politeness, he restrained his impulse.

Regarding Lin Xiao's reaction, Qiu Xiaoqin didn't seem to see it, and said to herself: "My Han Bing said that he had a cold and cough in this monthly exam, and his performance was a little abnormal, and he only scored 638 points, and his grade ranking also dropped several places, only ranking twelfth. ”

As he spoke, he couldn't stop shaking his head and sighing, as if he felt that this score was too little, and the corners of Lin Xiao's parents twitched slightly, and Lin Xiao couldn't wait to go up and shave her ear.

If you don't pretend to be forced, you'll die.

If it were as usual, Lin Xiao would definitely be half angry, but he will never forget him, and in the next exam, he will definitely dump her son a few streets.

"Oh!" I wanted to pump her, but Lin Xiao still answered casually, and then walked away, I really couldn't listen to it.

But Qiu Xiaoqin, who had just talked about his strength, how could he let him go so easily, beckoned to him and smiled: "Come on, come here, Auntie wants to talk to you for a while." ”

Lin Xiao was very helpless and wanted to leave, but after all, the other party was an elder, if he left like this, he would lose his manners, and his parents would not look good, so after weighing it, he walked over helplessly.

Waiting for Lin Xiao to sit down opposite her, Qiu Xiaoqin smiled and said: "Lin Xiao, your grades are relatively poor, and now you are about to take the college entrance examination, and my Han Bing's grades are slightly better, I think so, after I go back, I will tell him, let him help you more if you have nothing to do, you can ask him if you don't understand anything, you are welcome, the neighbors should help each other." ”

Hearing this, Lin Xiao pursed his lips with some disdain, and said secretly: "Now I have to ask him, when he was in class today, he asked me very diligently." ”

Seeing Lin Xiao's expression, Qiu Xiaoqin was a little unhappy, this little cub, if it weren't for the fact that everyone is so familiar, the old lady would have asked my son to help you?

Don't be unconvinced, who told my family that Han Bing's academic performance is better than yours now.

Did you think it was three years ago?

However, now that he saw Lin Xiao's depressed appearance, the unhappiness in his heart just now immediately disappeared, and a smile immediately bloomed on his face and said: "You're welcome, before high school, didn't you often enthusiastically help my Han soldiers." Now that your grades are poor, he should help you. ”

"What do you mean that your grades are bad now?" these words hurt people, Lin Xiao suddenly couldn't help it, "That was before, I also went to the podium today to give a math lesson to our classmates." ”

Since the other party, as an elder, is so shameless, why should he have so many scruples.

"What?" Qiu Xiaoqin, who was arrogant, was stunned for a moment, and then looked disdainful, "You give a lesson to your classmates? ”

"Don't talk nonsense!" As soon as Lin Xiao said this, not to mention that Qiu Xiaoqin didn't believe it, even his parents frowned and looked displeased.

This kind of thing, if it was three years ago, they didn't think Lin Xiao was nonsense at all, but now, it's another matter.

This morning, the head teacher called and said that he had only scored 250 points, which was the lowest in the grade.

How is it possible to let the penultimate person walk on the podium and give lessons to other students?

"No nonsense, Aunt Qiu, if you don't believe it, you can go and ask your family Han Bing, this morning in class, he also asked me several math problems. Lin Xiao was very helpless, and was about to explain, when suddenly, Li Yun's mobile phone rang.

Lin Xiao stood up and glanced at it, and found that it was the head teacher Shi Pan who called, so he hurriedly said: "Oh~ My head teacher teaches mathematics, you don't believe it, you can ask him now." ”

Li Yun looked at the "Xiaoxiao Class Teacher" remarked on her mobile phone, and then looked at Lin Xiao, who was bitten to death, and was shocked for eight points, and answered the phone with some excitement.

"Hey, hello, I'm Lin Xiao's homeroom teacher Shi Pan, are you Lin Xiao's mother?" As soon as Li Yun connected, Shi Pan's voice came from the phone.

"Yes, what's the matter?"

"That's right, when Lin Xiao took the math class today, she performed very well, and the math problems she explained to everyone won unanimous praise from other students.

Although he did not do well in the monthly exam this time, judging from Lin Xiao's current state, he will definitely be able to get a very good result in the next monthly exam.

You don't have to put too much pressure on him, our teachers are very optimistic about him!

……”

Listening to Shi Pan's very excited words on the phone, the three people except Lin Xiao were instantly stunned.

He said that Lin Xiao's performance was particularly good!

Take the stage to explain the math problems!

Received unanimous praise from other students!

The teachers are very optimistic about him!

A sentence was like a bombshell explosive exploding in their minds, and they were stunned.

This...... I didn't expect what Lin Xiao said to be true!

"Could it be...... Is this really my son's doing?" Li Yun was stunned for a while, then turned her head and glanced at Lin Xiao who was sitting next to her in disbelief.

The son was able to give a lecture to other students on stage, and the head teacher made several calls to say hello.

Now she has to believe that the head teacher has come to report the good news, and there is still a holiday?

"Aunt Qiu, do you believe it now?" Lin Xiao raised his head and said with a smile.

"Won't you have acted in a play with the head teacher?" was stunned, and Qiu Xiaoqin, who was opposite, said with some hesitation.

He really didn't believe that Lin Xiao, a special student, was qualified to come on stage to explain math topics to everyone.

Besides, if it was really as he said, what he said just now, wouldn't he be slapping his face?

Seeing that Qiu Xiaoqin still didn't give up, the corners of Lin Xiao's mouth raised slightly, glanced at her and said, "Is it acting, you can go home and ask your Han Bing." ”

After speaking, Lin Xiao didn't bother to talk nonsense with her anymore, so he got up and left directly, wanting to go to his room.

Seeing Lin Xiao leave, Qiu Xiaoqin looked a little embarrassed.

Nine times out of ten, it's true.

Thinking of this, her face immediately felt hot.

Noticing the embarrassment on Qiu Xiaoqin's face, although Li Yun was also a little dissatisfied with her, she was a neighbor after all, so she immediately said: "Sister Qiu, don't care, this kid is too rude, I'll clean him up later." ”

"Ah, it's okay, it's okay. Qiu Xiaoqin smiled very embarrassedly, then got up and said: "I still have some things at home, if I don't go back, I'll be busy late next time, and I'll come to talk to you next time." ”

"Ah, that's good!" Li Yun was stunned for a moment, then got up and opened the door for her.

After sending Qiu Xiaoqin away, Li Yun turned to look at Lin Nanxin, her face was still a little dazed, she felt that the phone call just now was extremely unreal, and asked, "Old man, do you say this is true?"

"Can it be fake? Their homeroom teacher wouldn't be boring enough to joke about it. Lin Nanxin rolled his eyes, and then smiled happily.

He had a faint premonition in his heart that his genius son was about to return.

After returning to the room, after a while, Lin Xiao heard Qiu Xiaoqin in the living room leave.

He didn't care, he didn't bother to guess if what he just said would hurt her, if it weren't for Qiu Xiaoqin's nose kicking in the face, he wouldn't be bored enough to show her face.

However, this is fine, and she should be a little more restrained in the future.

Retracting his thoughts, not caring about this, Lin Xiao immediately took out a textbook on the table and read it quickly.

The most important thing now is to study hard.
