12. Eat together
"Where are you?"
Cheng Xiaoxiao almost laughed when she heard Lu Chao's standard, but subtle tone of B.
She was not in a hurry to answer, and slowly stood up with the telephone pole next to her, patting the dust on her skirt, "What about the school, what's wrong?"
She didn't know when Lu Chao got her mobile phone number, probably asking Uncle Xu for it.
Lu Chao was silent again, "In the school?"
"No, it's on the Splendid Road behind...... Are you nearby?" she could already hear some noisy background sounds behind Lu Chao, which didn't sound like she was at home.
"Stand still. ”
Cheng Xiaoxiao waited for a few minutes, and then saw Lu Chao's little man dangling out of the back door of S, among a group of high school students, he was a little boy who was not tall, and he had a good bearing, and he looked particularly conspicuous.
Cheng Xiaoxiao waved at him, hung up the phone and walked up, "Why are you here?"
Lu Chao frowned and threw the plastic bag in his hand to her.
She rummaged through it, and it was a box of coconut milk plus two boxes of sushi, and a packet of mints, "For me?"
Lu Chao twisted his head to the side, "Uncle Xu bought it for you, there are too many people here, and the road is too small to drive in, so I will bring it to you." ”
Although Lu Chao said this, Cheng Xiaoxiao also knew that this must have been bought by Lu Chao, she took care of Uncle Xu this morning, and took Lu Chao to eat at home at noon, and she solved it outside the school.
Thinking of Lu Chao's change in attitude, Cheng Xiaoxiao was not unhappy, and touched his head casually, "Thank you...... Oh, thank you Uncle Xu for helping me later. ”
Lu Chao slapped her hand away angrily, but paused when he looked up, "...... Didn't do well in the exam?"
Cheng Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, picked up his mobile phone and took a picture of his face, probably because the cold sweat on his stimulated face just now had not been wiped off, so he gave him this illusion, "No, it's too hot." ”
Lu Chao didn't speak again, but his expression was not too good.
Cheng Xiaoxiao is really nothing at this time, even if there is anything, it is almost good to be interrupted by Lu Chao like this. She reached out and grabbed Lu Chao's wrist and pulled him up again, "Let's go, find a place to eat together." ”
The shade of the trees in S was occupied by the students in front, so Cheng Xiaoxiao and Lu Chao had no choice but to sit down by the flower bed in the sun.
Lu Chao looked disgusted, unwilling to sit, and stood by from a distance. Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn't look down on him the most, so he grabbed him by the back collar, pulled him down and sat down, and gave him a box of sushi, "Here." ”
"I've eaten it. ”
"Then take another box. ”
“……”
Lu Chao didn't speak, lowered his head, opened the box of sushi, and didn't care about anything else, he directly picked up a piece with his bare hands, put it in his mouth and tasted it slowly, looking more delicate and delicate, but not that kind of sissy delicate, but simply pleasing to the eye.
At the end of August, S City was still a little too hot, and even if you sat still, you could sweat from the stuffiness in the air.
Cheng Xiaoxiao tilted her head, dug out a napkin from her pocket, and wiped it on Lu Chao's forehead.
"Don't touch me casually!" Lu Chao had not swallowed the sushi in his mouth, and when he spoke, he was slurred, not only sounding intimidating, but a little cute.
Cheng Xiaoxiao's palm moved down and patted his white and tender cheek, "Okay, for the sake of you coming to me on a hot day this time, I'll forgive you for talking to me like this." ”
"Hey, you're ......"
It may be that seeing that Cheng Xiaoxiao's expression was not as happy as her voice, Lu Chao silently closed his mouth and concentrated on eating sushi with his head down.
Cheng Xiaoxiao lowered her eyelids and stopped talking.
There is only a hot breath flowing in the air, and the cicadas and birds are all making people feel flustered, this is the summer of S City.
Because of what happened just now, Cheng Xiaoxiao had a poor appetite, not because he was angry, but simply because the reunion across the past and present lives was disgusting.
Sighing, she forced herself to stuff something in her mouth, but it didn't taste good.
"Are you nervous?" Lu Chao's voice sounded a little out of place.
Cheng Xiaoxiao paused and turned his head to look at him, "No, no...... Speaking of which, how did you report today? Have you got all your textbooks? What about your new classmates? Do you have any new friends?"
"Long-winded......" Lu Chao lowered his head, too lazy to answer her question.
"Huh, you are a child!" Cheng Xiaoxiao twisted his arm slightly, "Anyway, you follow first, get used to it, if you think it's completely fine, find a tutor to tutor to tutor the content of the second year of junior high school, and then transfer to the second year of junior high school next semester, anyway, you may always have to ...... in S City in the future."
As soon as the words came out, Cheng Xiaoxiao felt that something was wrong, smiled a little embarrassedly and apologetically, and stopped.
She didn't know if Lu Chaozhi knew where his parents had come now, whether he was definitely divorced, whether he would never see his mother again, but whether Lu Chao knew it in his heart or not, these words should not be said by her.
Her family is happy, and she can't empathize with Lu Chao, and if she says some hypocritical words of comfort, it will be particularly ridiculous, and it will only make the child sad.
Lu Chao felt Cheng Xiaoxiao's deliberate pause, sneered, and stood up, "You're going to be late." ”
"Ah......" Cheng Xiaoxiao took out her mobile phone, and after determining the time, she hurriedly packed up her things, threw the empty boxes and bags left over by the two of them into the trash can not far away, and then stuffed the unopened coconut milk in her hand into Lu Chao's hand, "Then I'll go first! Tell my aunt what you want to eat at night, don't wait for me if I come back late." ”
Cheng Xiaoxiao's small movements made Lu Chao's expression change from indifference again, and became expressionless as always, "Anyway, you're just at this level, don't be nervous." ”
"......" Cheng Xiaoxiao was trying to run forward, and when she heard Lu Chao's words, she almost fell.
But fortunately, she was used to not worrying about Lu Chao, a second-year teenager, so she waved her hand at him with her back to her, "I know you're worried about me, so let's go." ”
Lu Chao sneered coldly, and saw her trotting into the teaching building, before turning around and leaving.
An hour was already very short, and when Cheng Xiaoxiao ran back, she found that a large army of students were walking towards the teaching building in twos and threes, so she also relaxed and walked slowly, so as not to sweat and affect the exam status.
Fortunately, she didn't meet Xiao Zhiyuan along the way, and she was able to take the exam with peace of mind.
The difficulty of the three subjects in the afternoon is obviously much higher than that of the liberal arts in the morning, especially the penultimate question of the mathematics paper, the difficulty of the first question is almost as high as the second question of the last question of the high school examination paper.
Cheng Xiaoxiao flipped through the last question, which was also about the same difficulty, sighed, calmed down, and according to Li Zetian's solution method, first listed the relevant formulas on the scratch paper, and then began to calculate step by step according to the conventional solution ideas.
It took most of the day to get the first two small questions done, Cheng Xiaoxiao raised her head and swept around with her afterglow, the surrounding classmates were struggling with this question, all of them were in a state of hard thinking and meditation and couldn't put pen to paper, and basically didn't do the last question.
Cheng Xiaoxiao glanced at the clock hanging on the wall above the blackboard, there were still twenty minutes before the end of the exam.
Generally speaking, the third question of the penultimate question will give up directly in the case of insufficient time, and then think the other way around when the first two questions of the last question are completed, this is the standard idea and practice of doing the mathematics paper of the high school entrance examination, the main reason is that the difficulty of the third question to do it right is not small, and the score is not high, if it is a student in a particularly good school, it is very light to make the question, that is to go to the full score, like Cheng Xiaoxiao, an ordinary poor student, the teacher gives the goal of 140 points, and the last question of the last two questions is all abandoned, just check the basic questions in front of you。
But the finale of this set of papers is rare and a little excessive.,It's not the kind of question that can be scored easily.,It's estimated that there is also the idea of testing everyone's level.,In case everyone is more than 140 points.,There may be errors when classifying.。
She hesitated for a moment, but decided to give up the finale question and solve the third question of the penultimate question, first, she was afraid that there would not be enough time to solve the finale question, and second, she already had some ideas about this question, and I believe that the third question would be fine if she thought about it for a while.
Cheng Xiaoxiao was helpless in her heart, she didn't take her high math exam papers so seriously, and this high school question was too difficult!
Her idea was really right, and when the invigilator reminded her that there were ten minutes left, she had already written out the third question, and in the last ten minutes, she only had time to write down the general idea and formula of the first question of the finale, but she had not yet calculated the specific answer.
When I handed in the papers, I looked at the exam papers of the people behind me, and everyone was in a similar situation to her, and there were even penultimate questions that were not completed, so I guess I could only see them in class E.
There is nothing to say about physics and chemistry, Cheng Xiaoxiao only feels that he has been recalling formulas all afternoon, and has used all the spirit of memorizing a book in one night in college.
Fortunately, the result is quite satisfactory to her, and the questions that can basically be done correctly have been made, and her level of more complex ones is also limited, so she may not be able to do it all right in high school in her previous life.
It was still dawn when Cheng Xiaoxiao walked out of S, but the time was almost six o'clock.
She didn't eat much at noon, and she was a little hungry at this time, so she quickly quickened her pace and went out to look for Uncle Xu's car everywhere.
Uncle Xu parked the car in front of the convenience store at the school gate, and Cheng Xiaoxiao hurriedly got into the car.
Seeing her in a hurry, Uncle Xu smiled very considerately: "Miss is hungry, are you? Do you want to eat something to pad your stomach first?" ”
Cheng Xiaoxiao turned his head to look at the line of students in the convenience store, gritted his teeth and shook his head in refusal: "Forget it, Uncle Xu, let's hurry home!" Lu Chao is still waiting for me at home, it's not good to let the guests eat alone. ”
Of course, Cheng Xiaoxiao still complained in her heart, Lu Chao will wait for her to have a ghost.
At this time, Lu Chao was also sitting at the dining table and looking at the clock on the wall.
It's going to be knocked at six o'clock, usually at this time their family has already eaten, but I don't know what Cheng Xiaoxiao's habits are.
He thought that Cheng Xiaoxiao only ate a box of sushi at noon and did exam papers all day, so he estimated that she must be hungry.
But what does this have to do with him?
Lu Chao looked at the dishes on the table, raised his chopsticks, paused in front of the spicy chicken nuggets, and slowly put them down.
He comforted himself, it was too rude to start eating when the owner was not in someone else's house, but he didn't want to wait for Cheng Xiaoxiao!
