20. Chinese New Year
As soon as Cheng Xiaoxiao went home, she found that Cheng's mother's expression was very subtle, as if she was smiling but not smiling, and she looked very infiltrating.
When she went downstairs to the kitchen to pour a drink, she couldn't help but tremble, "Mom, what are you doing, this expression? Who messed with you?"
Cheng's mother patted her on the back vigorously, "Young poverty, go and call Lu Chao down to eat." ”
Cheng Xiaoxiao was very dazed by her at this time, what's wrong with her? Didn't she just ask a question?
But fortunately, at dinner, Cheng's mother decrypted it herself.
"Lu Chao," Cheng Mu wiped her lips elegantly, "take it out." ”
Cheng Xiaoxiao's hand with chopsticks shook and looked at Lu Chao with a blank face.
Lu Chao was also at a loss, "What to take?"
Cheng's mother squinted her eyes and smiled, "Your homeroom teacher called me today." ”
Cheng Xiaoxiao looked surprised, "Lu Chao, did you commit a crime?"
Lu Chao almost sprayed her without holding back, but fortunately he still remembered that Cheng's mother was there, so he simply ignored Cheng Xiaoxiao, "Auntie, what did the teacher say?"
"What did you say?" Cheng Mu pretended to think about it, "Hmm...... Said that your grades are particularly good, and you have been the first in the grade in several exams, and the teacher feels that you can consider skipping a grade according to your usual table, and ask you if you want to go to the class first to audit the second year of junior high school next semester. ”
Lu Chao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"But," she said, "the teacher said that there are always girls who secretly go to your class to give you love letters, and Yan zhòng affects other people's studies." Your teacher said you have a big stack in your desk, take it out and take a look!"
Cheng Xiaoxiao almost laughed so much that she burst into laughter, "In this era, there are still people who send love letters?"
Lu Chao was very calm, "Throw it." ”
"Throw it away?!" The mother and daughter of the Cheng family were surprised, what an incomprehensible elementary school student this is!
Cheng Mu laughed before coughing lightly, recovering the adult's tone, "I also know that you are a disaster, but ...... Don't recruit little girls, you're only a little older. ”
Lu Chao spread his hands, saying that he was also helpless.
Smiled but noticed something else, walked up to him and pulled him up and compared with himself, Lu Chao's height was already up to her ears, and it was only about her shoulders during the summer vacation.
"I didn't even realize you were so tall...... If you think about it, your voice is a lot lower, oh my God......" Cheng Xiaoxiao patted him and sighed subtly.
By the time of the winter vacation, Cheng Xiaoxiao's biggest worry was over - the final exam of the first semester of high school and the placement test of the next semester directly determined whether she could continue to stay in class B. But the end is over, and most of the students in S must have to worry about this for the whole winter vacation.
There are no make-up classes after the final exams, but they start a little earlier than other schools. Students will not have time to rest because of this, they will have to take a few more exam classes next semester, and if they don't take advantage of the winter vacation, they will have to start differently.
Fortunately, Cheng Xiaoxiao's history and geography are not bad, so there is no need to be particularly stressed.
The house he asked for was also bought, in the neighborhood next door to Cheng Xiaoxiao's house, it was not a villa, but it was not small, it probably had three bedrooms and two living rooms, and it was still under renovation.
Cheng Xiaoxiao went to see it once, and sighed at Boss Lu's generosity.
However, because paint hurts people too much, Lu Chao still lives in their house temporarily, and it is estimated that he will not be able to move in until the summer vacation.
At the beginning of the winter vacation, they all relaxed a lot, although Cheng Xiaoxiao still maintained her school routine, so she didn't have to be so strict - she didn't have a bottom about her final exam results, but if there were no particularly outstanding people in the later classes, she should still be able to stay in Class B.
And Li Zetian doesn't have to do projects for the New Year, so he has a lot of leisure, so he agreed with her to tutor twice a week. He is now going to take two students, one is Cheng Xiaoxiao, and the other is Tian Tian, who has been here once and refuses to leave.
Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn't understand Tian Tian's behavior of running her house every week, she just expected it, but she didn't expect Tian Tian to really want to come over in the cold all the time.
Tian Tian held his face in private and smiled at Cheng Xiao, a nymphomaniac: "Oh my God, Mr. Li is really handsome!
"Yes, yes......" She felt that Li Zetian's expression was quite terrifying.
"Yes, yes!" Tian Tian nodded desperately, her eyes shining, "I will transfer to your school in my second year of high school!
What is the relationship between the two of "......"?
"Every time I see Mr. Li tell you a question that I haven't even seen, I am so envious, I smile and I decide, I want to fall in love with him from today!
"Okay, I support you......" The result was good after all, although she didn't think that Li Zetian would take care of Tian Tian's pursuit.
After that, Tian Tian was busier than her, they had a lot of homework during the winter vacation of their school, she originally planned to copy other people's, since they were already a top student, they must do it themselves. She also signed up for a cram school during the winter vacation, and made up for all subjects together, just hoping not to be at the bottom of S.
Cheng Xiaoxiao listened to her plan and helped her calculate, except for the two days when she went to her house to make up classes with her, Tian Tian had to go out to make up classes almost every day, and her hands couldn't count the big and small classes, and there was almost no gap.
Cheng Xiaoxiao was a little worried, "You haven't adapted to such a high-intensity make-up class before, will you not be able to keep up?"
Tian Tian patted his chest, "Don't worry, I go to the first make-up class every day! Now it's no problem to let me run 800 meters with a perfect score!"
Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't know what to say, so she had to nod vigorously to support this best friend for two lifetimes.
She hopes that Tian Tian can always be well, and she will always be as vigorous as she is now.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, Father Cheng and Boss Lu came back together.
Cheng Xiaoxiao jumped up and hugged his father, only to see the boss behind him, and hurriedly shouted "Hello uncle".
Boss Lu still looked smiling, and Xiang Cheng Xiaoxiao stuffed a red envelope in his hand, "Okay, good, happy New Year!"
This time, Cheng Xiaoxiao naturally took it - the elders can't refuse it - according to the customs of S City, the New Year's red envelope cannot be refused, which is a very unlucky behavior.
"Thank you, uncle, and I wish you a happy and prosperous New Year!"
Boss Lu is here to take Lu Chao back for the New Year, their family has a lot of rules, even if Lu Chao is disobedient, it is impossible to stay elsewhere to keep the New Year.
Lu Chao seemed to have known about this for a long time, and he was not surprised at all, so he obediently went to pack his things and prepared to go back with Boss Lu.
Cheng's mother was very reluctant, "Come back early!"
Lu Chao smiled, "I wish you all a happy new year!
Saying goodbye to Lu Chao and Boss Lu, Cheng Xiaoxiao and they also packed their things, first went to grandma's house for Chinese New Year's Eve, and then flew to H City to see their grandmother on the first night of the new year.
This is the first time Cheng Xiaoxiao has seen several old people since she was reborn, and there is always some indescribable feeling in her heart, probably because she regrets it, she has been following the old people like a fart for the whole New Year, and coaxed everyone to sigh "Xiaoxiao has really grown up, obedient and sensible, and she is so beautiful."
However, after staying at her grandmother's house for three days, she could understand intermittently how her grandmother was into the hospital last time.
Her cousin Cen Cen was pregnant for several months, and lied to her family that she was fat, until she couldn't hide it before she cried and said, originally, although she was still in college, she had also reached the marriageable age, and pulled the man out to discuss what to do with the child.
As a result, Cousin Cen Cen said that she didn't know who the child's father was, so she made her grandmother angry and went directly to the hospital. My cousin was brought up by my grandmother, and she didn't leave her grandmother to live with her aunt until she was in junior high school.
Because of this incident, their family quarreled upside down, Cen Cen's cousin and her father directly said that they would cut off the parent-child relationship and let her stop appearing, so she ran away very stubbornly, and there was no news for several days.
Later, Cheng's mother went, and only after calming down her grandmother did she take Cen Cen back, the child was killed, and she stopped studying in college, and directly sent her to study abroad to study, so as not to embarrass everyone by gossip in school, and to avoid her being in a bad mood in China and not conducive to her physical recovery.
Now Cen Cen is probably still angry with her father, and she didn't come back for the New Year.
However, the aunt probably feels sorry for this little daughter, and she has been taking care of her abroad before, and she didn't come back until the Chinese New Year, and then she probably has to worry about going to see it.
Grandma didn't want to say this kind of thing directly to Cheng Xiaoxiao, who was still a minor, but said it vaguely, patted the back of her hand and sighed, "We can't laugh like this, no matter what happens, we have to tell the family well." ”
Cheng Xiaoxiao deduced in her heart that she was not far from ten, sighed at Cousin Cen Cen's openness, and did not forget to comfort her grandmother: "Don't worry, grandma, I will always be fine." She is reluctant to quarrel with her parents anymore, time is very cruel, and it will be regretted if it is used to quarrel.
After the New Year, Cheng's father was busy going to City B to open a branch again, Cheng Xiaoxiao was also in a hurry to go back, they started school early, and the school started after the fifth day of junior high school.
The day before school started, she suddenly received a strange phone call.
"Cheng Xiaoxiao?"
Cheng Xiaoxiao felt that this voice was a little familiar, but she couldn't think of who it was, so she had to say a little cautiously: "I am, may I ask who you are?"
There was a hearty laugh from the other end, "Happy New Year, I'm Bai Liqing." ”
