Chapter 64: Dragging a Man on the Boat

It's Friday again, which is also the last weekend of the semester, and after the final exams next Wednesday, the students will usher in the long-awaited winter vacation. Winter vacation, that means that the Chinese New Year is not far away, and the Chinese New Year, it means that you can wear new clothes, eat white rice and fatty pork, and that is the happiest day of the year for the children in the mountains!

Of course, this is also the moment when the students are working hard to study, and if they don't do well in the final exam, it means that their parents will reprimand. For the Chinese New Year, who wants to make a mess of the exam and let their parents scold and make fun of their relatives for the New Year?

Mao Tong, who has been tired for more than half a month, also came to Li Jiaming for this reason, he can be regarded as figuring out his cousin's temper, as long as you can be reasonable, he will reason with you, and he will never beat people.

"That's right, let's go play, and go home for dinner when it's dark. There will be a holiday tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, as long as you finish your homework."

Li Jiaming, who had just taken a shower, put down the last homework book in his hand, smiled and nodded at the uneasy Man Mei who was standing next to him.

glanced enviously at the sisters who came downstairs with enviously, their hair was still wet after taking a bath, and begged in a low voice: "Jiaming, you said yesterday that the grinding gun is not fast (sharp) and light, and the final exam is approaching, so let's study for a few days and sharpen the gun?"

Li Jiaming didn't answer this, but asked about something else: "Hey, Mao Yan, I heard them say, now you and the fine dog are avoiding everyone for lunch at noon?"

As soon as he mentioned this, Mao Yan's face turned red, and he said embarrassedly: "You don't know, I want to give eggs to Gui Mei to eat, but she just won't take them." I'm afraid that everyone will laugh at me for being delicious and selfish, so I simply don't eat with everyone with the fine dog. ”

"Oh", Li Jiaming smiled, talked about the difference between the food of the fourth brother and the third brother, and asked rhetorically: "Do you know what my third brother said at the beginning?"

"How?"

Mao Yan looked at Li Jiaming curiously, he also knew about it, and he wanted to know what Brother Jiadao, who was so good at reading, could say.

Li Jiaming sighed, and repeated word by word what the fourth brother told him, "He said: 'Jiade, you will be admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University in the future, as long as you can afford to take the exam, I will be willing to eat shredded potatoes every day!'"

Mao Yan was stunned, his mind was relatively simple, and he asked after a while: "What do you mean? What does it have to do with eating when I was admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University?"

"You, Sister Gui is too young to speak. In her heart, as long as you can be admitted to college in the future, she is also like my third brother, she is willing to eat all the shredded potatoes every day! Those eggs and meat are all for you to supplement nutrition, don't they make you feel delicious, you know?"

Mao Yan's face was hot for a while, and he stood there in a daze.

Li Jiaming didn't care about this cousin who knew the honor and disgrace, packed up the homework books, textbooks, and pencils on the small square table, picked up tongs and buried the charcoal fire in the brazier, and went to the second uncle's house to wait for dinner.

Walking into the kitchen of the second uncle's house, the second uncle, who was roasting by the fire, smiled and said, "Jiaming, Principal Liu asked me to bring something for you." ”

"What's that?"

"It seems that Mr. Wang asked him to do a book on sports. ”

Li Jiaming's heart warmed, his teacher is like this, as long as his students are on the right path and doing the right thing, he always spares no effort to help, and does not ask for anything in return.

"Hey", after Li Jiaming agreed, the second uncle said proudly: "Jiaming, last time that teacher Liu was transferred to a primary and secondary school to be the principal, I happened to meet him when I was buying salt on the street, and he also invited us to lunch." ”

Li Jiaming knew about this from Mr. Wang early in the morning, and also knew that the former President Lin had been promoted and transferred to the bureau to become a member of the party committee, which was regarded as solving the problem of administrative level before retirement, and became a deputy section-level leader from a unit-level cadre. His own Master Hu not only has the means, but also is quite kind.

Hmmm? It's us, not me?

Hehehe, the second uncle is not like a father, the idea of patriarchy and pro-daughter is very serious, and he must have gone to see the fourth brother and the third brother first, and then went to see the two daughters by the way. It is estimated that when Principal Liu invited him to lunch, he would definitely ask him to call the second sister and the third sister, and the second uncle would call the fourth and third brothers who made him proud, and he definitely did not call him the second and third sisters of his own daughters.

Li Jiaming's slander was the dissatisfaction of the second aunt, but neither of them expected that the second uncle actually shook his head and said: "No, people invite us to eat, and it is just a kind word to ask the child to come over to eat, so how can it be taken seriously? However, Mr. Liu is really a good person, I don't want to, he asked Sasha to call the second sister and the third sister." Sasha is also really sensible, so a foreign girl calls two country girls a 'second sister' and 'third sister', and she is so affectionate. ”

Li Jiaming frowned slightly, and then smiled dumbly. The second uncle helped Mr. Liu, and the new motorcycle of four or five thousand yuan said that he would borrow it, but the uncle just had a meal with him. As for the third and fourth brothers, their grades are good, and they will definitely be successful in the future, but they are not the students he taught, so how can they pay special attention to them like the previous Principal Lin.

Even if Principal Lin, who values the fourth brother so much, after the fourth brother and the third brother became famous, when they returned to their hometown to visit relatives, they took their wives and children and carried gifts to visit, and they were still Teacher Zhang from the village elementary school, Teacher Mao and Teacher Jiang from the junior high school. As for Principal Lin and the other teachers of the fourth brother and the third brother, they were all the fourth and third sisters-in-law who knew more about human feelings, and they were just invited to the best hotel in the county for a meal.

These things can't be blamed on the sophistication of the current teacher Liu, nor can we blame the cold feelings of the fourth brother in the future, it is really too much difference between the pure teacher-student relationship and the utilitarian one.

Mr. Liu is different from Principal Lin, who has come all the way from substitute teaching, private office, and regularization, he is actually similar to Mr. Wang in his bones, and he is a somewhat high-minded person. High-minded intellectuals like them, even if they are just minor intellectuals, have their own principles: they can eat at the same table with peasants like Erbo, because their parents are also farmers, and they can also have a relationship with Director Hu, who is in a high position, because that is their mentor, but they will definitely not invest in potential stocks that are destined to soar like the fourth brother like ordinary people.

On the other hand, if a pure person like the fourth brother and the third brother does not have a fourth and third sister-in-law who are not very affectionate in the future, I am afraid that they will not even think of inviting Principal Lin and them to a meal, at most they will take the initiative to shake hands and say hello when they meet.

Thinking of this, Li Jiaming, who was waiting for dinner, couldn't help but hehe. Teacher Wang and Teacher Jiang teach all students as if they were their own children, at most they are particularly talented and outstanding, giving them a little freedom of learning that everyone recognizes. Yesterday at noon, wasn't it because I was late to help my aunt with hygiene, and I ended up with two bamboo shoots on my hands?

After eating, Li Jiaming took his two younger sisters to wash their feet and clean their teeth, and went back to his house to repeat the procedures for each weekend: assign the four younger sisters homework for tomorrow, and then let them watch TV, and then supervise Mao Tong and the fine dog to do their homework, and they also picked up textbooks to read books and do homework and papers, until ten o'clock in the evening, Li Jiaming let the two go to sleep.

Shushan has a diligent path, and even the monsters like the fourth brother are diligent, not to mention a mortal with ordinary talents?

Mao Tong and thin dogs really have no talent in reading, and even their memory is a little worse than ordinary people, so they should read more seriously. Those methods that cannot be put on the table, if you can not use them, try not to use them. Relying on one's own ability to be admitted to college and relying on the help of others to go to college, the difference is too big for the person concerned.

Besides, teenagers have to sleep for eight hours, from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., exactly eight hours, and if they feel tired, they can take a nap between classes or at noon, which is enough time.

It must be bitter, but you will get used to it if you suffer hardship, isn't Li Jiaming himself used to this kind of hard life?

It's just that Li Jiaming's practice of accurate time to less than ten minutes has the consequence that after the overly energetic Mao Tong and the thin dog go home, they can now fall asleep.

Aunt Hong Ying is used to seeing her youngest son running home and still alive, and when she stays with Li Jiaming for two and a half hours, she becomes a sick cat, but she rarely sees a big dog. Seeing that his younger brother slept every day when he came back, and he could snore in a few minutes, the big dog was worried: "Mom, isn't my brother physically unbearable? ”

Aunt Hong Ying was also a little distressed, but more of pride and hope, and explained in a low voice: "Do you think your brother is still the same as before?"

Now you have to listen carefully in class, if you can't do your homework, you will be beaten when you come back, and if you can do it but do it wrong, you will be beaten! Jiaming has beaten your brother more than a dozen times, and he scored 78 or 72 points in the last midterm exam. Now he has to run twice a day, almost 20 miles back and forth, can he not be tired? ”

"Oh", Uncle Chuan Meng 'horned' the dry chimney, turned off the sound of the old black and white TV to the extent that he had to listen carefully to hear it, and the big dog also hurriedly went to close the door, for fear of affecting his brother's sleep. The two couples looked at their eldest son with satisfaction, and sighed regretfully, if Jiaming was a few years older and sensible a few years earlier, Gou Ling might also follow him to practice sports, so that he would not follow him to do odd jobs at such a young age.

The regret of Uncle Chuanmeng and Aunt Hongying is the regret of the second uncle and second aunt, and when they saw the second daughter and third daughter who went home for a week in the evening, they also sighed secretly. But what surprised them was that at dinner the next day, the third daughter, who was in the first year of junior high school, actually asked Li Jiaming if she was capable of tutoring her?

This was a big surprise, Li Jiaming couldn't hide it, and hurriedly nodded and agreed: "No problem, last week, the fourth brother began to teach me mathematics and physics in the second year of junior high school." Besides, I won't, you can still ask the fourth brother and the third brother!"

The third sister was immediately deflated, and said in a low voice: "Then forget it, in the past, the military was laughed at by the eldest and second soldiers, and he stammered." I'm not as smart as you, if I ask, I won't let the eldest and second men die of laughter when they come back?"

That's not good, the eldest sister regrets it; the second sister really doesn't like to read, and she has never heard her regret it in the future, but when she talks about her small restaurant, her eyebrows flutter; the third sister finally got up with the idea of studying seriously, how could Li Jiaming let go of this opportunity?

"Third sister, you look down on people too much, I'm being humble with you. If you don't believe me, you go and ask the fourth brother, you only got 72 in math, 71 in Chinese, and 91 in English in the mid-term exam, but I got a perfect score in math and 92 in Chinese. I can guarantee that when you are in the second year of junior high school, I will have completed all the content of junior high school by myself, and I will have no problem teaching you in the second year of junior high school!"

"Really?"

This is his own sister, Li Jiaming gritted his teeth and agreed: "Really, do you think I was the first in the county, I picked it up?"

"Won't it affect your studies? You've already taught six younger siblings!"

Seeing that the third sister was moved again, Li Jiaming hurriedly said: "No, no, how difficult do you think it is? I am now teaching the Manmei and the little sister to spend some energy, and they only need to supervise." A few of them have already been scared by me, and they listen carefully in class and do their homework seriously, so how much do they need me to tutor? At most, I will help them check their homework and explain what is wrong. ”

made a mistake in the busy, and mentioned that she was going to be beaten, and the third sister with a good face immediately reluctant.

"It's embarrassing enough for you to be taught by a small man, and I still let you fight, do I still want to live?"

Today's second uncle surprisingly did not scold the third sister, but asked Li Jiaming: "Jiaming, have you learned the content of the second year of junior high school?"

Li Jiaming, who was anxious to drag the third sister on the boat, didn't think much in his mind, and hurriedly said: "Yes, the fourth brother used the papers from his previous midterm exam in the second semester last week to test my mathematics and Chinese, and the mathematics was a full score, and the Chinese was almost only 92." The fourth brother said that there was a problem with his pronunciation, and he would teach me when he corrected it, and only let me listen to the English tape first.

He also said that the language should be accumulated slowly and in a hurry. Except for physics and chemistry in the future, the rest are sub-courses, just understand a little bit, anyway, the high school entrance examination will not be examined. In the future, if you are interested in history, geography, politics, etc., it is not too late to study at university. ”

This is true, the high school entrance examination will test language, mathematics, foreign affairs, physics, chemistry, physiological hygiene and politics, politics and physiological hygiene, as long as you memorize it by rote one month before the exam. As soon as Li Jiaming said this, the third sister's heart was alive again, if she used all the time she usually spent studying secondary classes to learn mathematics and English, just memorized it before the exam, it was possible to catch up with the best students in the grade.

"Yes, yes, as long as it takes a lot of time, how can there be a reason not to catch up? As long as the kung fu is deep, the iron rod can still be sharpened into a needle!"

Li Jiaming, who retreated to the second, hurriedly said bewildermently: "Third sister, those sub-teachers can scold a few words, and they won't lose a piece of meat, just let them scold! As long as you keep up with mathematics, Chinese, and English, and you can be admitted to a key high school in the future, who cares how many points you score in the history and geography exams?"

For some reason, the third sister, who suddenly had the idea of studying seriously, nodded again and again, but the second uncle next to her made a straight face and reprimanded: "Jiaming has the ability to teach you, why can't you let him teach?

It's bad, it's bad, the third sister is a stubborn temper, isn't the second uncle a favor?

"Can I stop reading it?"

As expected, as soon as the stubborn third sister threw her rice bowl and left, the second uncle was so angry that he trembled all over, and chased after him with the broom on the back of the door.
