Chapter 63: The Demon
Yinzitan Village is so big, and Li Jiaming's news of running with them like a dog every morning spread throughout the village within three days.
Why?
The classmates didn't dare to ask Mao Tong and the fine dog, both of them were not very good-tempered, and they wouldn't explain to you when they asked them about their humiliation, they would only move their fists, but they dared to ask Li Jiaming. Although Li Jiaming has been lifted to the altar by them, this genius seems to be similar to ordinary people, except for disliking more and more dislike to talk and beating up his own brothers and sisters to die evil, he is more polite to other classmates. Even if you accidentally step on him and bump into him, you won't get angry but will smile at you, not at all as domineering as Mao Tong.
"Oh, I heard from the teacher that the normal university will recruit sports students. There is no hope for Mao Tong and thin dogs to study, and I want them to try to take the physical education exam. ”
Li Jiaming stopped rubbing his sour eyes and opened his eyes, raised his hand and patted the melon seeds on his head, and scolded with a smile: "Sue you, do you want to try it too?" Don't worry, I will definitely treat you equally, and I will wake you up every morning!"
Every morning, I can hear the hairy and thin dogs crying wolf howls, muttering, "Am I sick?"
Former playmates aren't interested, but adults are. Being able to study at a normal university means being able to eat the national grain, be a teacher, and be a cadre!
At noon the next day, when Li Jiaming was halfway through dinner at his grandmother's house, the third cousin dragged his youngest son over, wanting him to teach this little cousin as well. The third cousin is the cousin of the eldest maternal uncle, and in the countryside, the relatives and clansmen are very clear, and it is often said that 'relatives are not more than three generations, and the clan has ten thousand years'. Looking at the eager eyes of his grandfather, grandmother, and uncle, Li Jiaming sighed secretly, pulled his little cousin and said, "Jin Yan, you go to the school and call the hairy dog or the thin dog." ”
"Oh", Jin Yan, who was in the third grade and had a mess of grades, ran to school as if he had been pardoned.
Within two minutes, the hairy dog and the thin dog came running, their faces were not red and they were not panting. These two guys are really good at practicing sports, and they have gained a lot of physical strength after just running for a week.
"Jiaming, do you have something?"
"Oh", Li Jiaming glanced behind them, and didn't see the little cousin, so he knew that the little guy must be hiding.
After picking up the last two bites of white rice and putting down the rice bowl, Li Jiaming got off the table and walked to the third cousin who was sitting in the sunbathing valley and drinking tea and basking in the sun, and said with a smile: "Third cousin, Jin Yan is my cousin, and Mao Tong and Fine Dog are my cousins." I don't have the idea of 'no three generations, no family has 10,000 years', as long as it is my brothers and sisters, I treat them equally. ”
The third cousin is overjoyed, his nephew is now a recognized genius, he can win the first place in the county, and he can also help the teacher invigilate the exam, revise the papers, and talk about the papers!
"But, third cousin, don't be too happy. ”
Li Jiaming casually pulled over the thin dog and rolled up his sleeves, on which there were a few slightly old scars stacked with new blood, which shocked the third cousin who was overjoyed just now. Not to mention the third cousin, even the grandfather who had finished eating and was sitting under the eaves drinking tea and basking in the sun was startled, and looked at his nephew and grandson in shock, when did Ming Yan become so ruthless?
Li Jiaming pulled the hair stone again, and also showed the scars on his arms to the third cousin, and said: "Third cousin, these are all made by me, and they have more on their backs and buttocks." If Jin Yan can endure this hardship, I will teach him. ”
Grandpa couldn't help but get up and walked over, pressed his big hand on Li Jiaming's shoulder, stared at his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Mingya, you are so ruthless when you are so big, how can you get it in the future?"
Li Jiaming also looked at his grandfather's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Grandpa, our Li family is not as good as your family, there are few people who want money, and there are few people who ask for money."
More than three years ago, my second aunt asked the township to arrest and induce labor, but my little brother was gone! My second uncle kept the police station closed for 19 days, and our six uncles and uncles couldn't afford to scrape together 5,000 yuan, so it was my eldest sister who went to You Yuan and Kashiwagi to kneel in front of her maternal uncle and cousins, so she borrowed money to ransom my second uncle.
It's been almost four years, and even now my aunt and uncle shed tears when they talk about it!"
As he spoke, Li Jiaming felt uncomfortable, turned his head to stare at Mao Tong and the fine dog, and said: "Mao Tong, fine dog, you don't blame me for being ruthless, it's really our own to fight for anger! If our Li family is as powerful as the You family, and there are also people who are cadres in the township, can the second uncle suffer that crime? Can the little brother be killed before he is born?"
Mao Tong and the thin dog were silent, they still remember the incident more than three years ago, and several uncles were so anxious that they wanted to kill people, but in the end they still gave in? Now that Li Jiaming brought up the old matter again, they realized the painstaking efforts of adults, if they don't fight for themselves, and encounter such a thing in the future, what will the family do?
Gently breaking away from his grandfather's big hand, Li Jiaming helped Mao Tong and the thin dog put down their sleeves, covering those shocking scars, and sighed: "Third cousin, if you have to suffer hardship, you can become a master, if Jin Yan can suffer this hardship, you let him tell me himself."
However, I said ugly things in the front, how about the hairy stone and the thin dog, you also saw it, and it was too hard to beat it at that time, so you don't feel distressed. ”
The third cousin looked at the sleeves of the coat that Mao Tong and the thin dog had put down, moved his throat and swallowed his saliva, and said with difficulty: "Ming Yan, how sure are you that you care about them like this?"
The third cousin is not the third maternal uncle of the in-laws, and the idea of 'there are no three generations, and the family has 10,000 years', and Li Jiaming also has it. For cousins like Mao Tong and Xigou, as long as their sports results can pass, Li Jiaming will use all means that cannot be put on the stage, but Jin Yan, his cousin, then forgive him for not being sensitive.
It's not that he's selfish, it's that no matter how he disciplines the hairy dog and the fine dog, the uncle will go farther away at most, can't see it, and his heart doesn't hurt, but the third cousin will never let him do this. If this is the case, why should I bother myself? I can't afford to spend seven or eight years to repay the favor of lending money to my father.
"Twenty percent, at most thirty percent! Third cousin, who can say for sure what will happen in seven or eight years? Uncle Chuanmeng and Uncle Chuanzong were forced to have no choice, so I tried ruthlessly.
Third cousin, do you know? Now Mao Tong and fine dogs eat one egg per meal and one meal of meat a day, just because I am afraid that their nutrition will not be able to keep up!"
One egg per meal and one meal of meat a day, this is too luxurious for a rural family!
But even so, there was not even half a chance, and the third cousin instinctively retreated, his youngest son was not able to endure this hardship, and he would have to suffer such hardships for seven or eight years. The third cousin all retreated, and the grandfather stopped interceding, it was really not worth it to suffer so much and spend such a big price, and only have a hope of thirty percent.
What he saw and heard in the valley flat, through the mouths of his third cousin and grandfather, soon spread all over Yinzitan and quickly spread to various houses. The adults had more to talk about after dinner, and the scholars looked at Li Jiaming and their three brothers with more incomprehension and awe.
Some far-sighted villagers lamented that Huang Niping was going to produce talents, and Mr. Wang rode to the township primary and secondary schools, and found his old classmate Principal Liu and asked him to find a way to make a full set of professional physical education textbooks.
"What? You didn't lie to me, did you?"
"Is it interesting to lie to you? Do you think that the man who let his father beat him all over his body with a small bamboo tip and carried it without saying a word will do something halfway?"
Principal Liu was shocked, sat at the desk and was speechless for a long time, and finally said, "Demon!"
