Chapter 64: The Beginning of School (I)
August 31, morning. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info The sun has just appeared, and the sun is not as hot as it has been in the past two months.
Those who wake up early in the morning can already feel a hint of coolness in the air. And as a person who is dragged up from the bed of great affection every day and forced to shout "exercise to defend yourself" and "strengthen your muscles to prevent being beaten", Zhao Yiming has a deeper understanding of this than more people.
And perhaps because of this, he looked at the big bags and small bags that his parents packed for him and his sister, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and the emotions in it were even more complicated.
Life is so hard!
I made a wish last night that I want to be happy forever.
Today I was told that my happy summer vacation life is coming to an end.
Zhao Guoqiang, who rushed back on the afternoon of the 30th, gave himself three days off, and his purpose was to fulfill his promise and come back to send his children to school.
Zhao Guoqiang is the deputy general manager of the construction company. It's true that he is the top of the company, but he is the most fortunate top of the company. Because he is in charge of the day-to-day management of the engineering department. To put it bluntly, the daily management of the engineering department is to soak in the construction site all day long, and carry out quality control, cost control, schedule control and target management for the construction of the project.
This job should be done well, there is no award. At most, a bonus will be given when it is completed. But if something goes wrong, it's likely to be a matter of human life.
As a deputy general manager, Zhao Guoqiang could also hand over all these tasks to his project managers, and he only needed to be responsible for coordinating all parties and supervising the quality and progress of the project. But he is a serious and responsible person, even if he plans to hand over the project to his subordinates, it will gradually evolve into the result of even construction safety being grasped by him.
As a result, the time for Zhao Guoqiang to return home has become very uncertain, generally depending on the distance to Jingxing, where the construction project is located. If the construction site is close to home, he will come back more often; If it's far away, it's not so lucky, and often doesn't go home once for months.
The project that Zhao Guoqiang is now working on is on the edge of the Songjiang and Huangpu rivers, nearly 600 kilometers back and forth. So far away, he hasn't been home for three months. If it weren't for Zhao Yiming's start of school, he would have to stay for another two months.
And although Zhao Guoqiang fulfilled his promise and came back, this time is also tight enough. He arrived home on the 30th, and Zhao Yiming started school on the 31st.
The first middle school will start on August 31, and there will be no classes on this day. In the past of the third year of high school, I signed up to prove to the teacher that I was still a child after a summer vacation, and I could go home and go back to the dormitory after spending a morning. The sophomore in high school also went to sign up, in addition to proving that he was a concubine, and by the way, everything was fine to receive the new textbook.
The busiest and hardest part of the day were only the freshmen and their parents.
Since last night, Zhao Yiming's parents have been packing up things for him and Zhao Yatong. Zhao Yiming: In addition to cleaning up their own clothes, shoes and socks. Zhao Guoqiang and Ming Xiao spent one night and prepared all their other utensils. The large bags are full of toothpaste, toothbrushes, towels, bath towels, shampoo, shower gel and other things.
Zhao Yiming couldn't help muttering: You can buy these things in the supermarket downstairs at my aunt's house, why do you have to carry them?
Then I was immediately spat on by my mother: The things that are available in the supermarket at home are cheap and good, why should I give the unjust money to others to earn? Moreover, the towels and bath towels prepared for you are all high-end goods specially bought, and the things in the supermarket can be compared?
Well, Mom, what you said makes so much sense, I can't even refute it!
After letting my parents toss until eight o'clock in the morning, my aunt Mingmin called, and her car was already parked downstairs.
Due to too much luggage, the car that my father drove back couldn't fit at all. Last night, when my aunt called to ask when it would be today, my mother was so unceremonious that she requisitioned my aunt's car.
After the aunt arrived, everyone saw that it was still early, so they decided to go directly to her house first and arrange the most important accommodation first. As for Zhao Yiming going to the school to register, it is not too late to go again in the afternoon.
The luggage can't fit in one car, and two cars are easy. Packed the luggage into the trunk of two cars, and the group of five set off.
The road was smooth, as I passed through No. 1 Middle School. Zhao Guoqiang's car stopped for a while and put Zhao Yatong down. Zhao Yatong is now a senior in high school, and she is going to report to her class in the morning. After school at noon, she would go straight back to Mingmin's house. The remaining four people in the two cars quickly arrived at the downstairs of Mingmin's house.
"Sister, brother-in-law, come in."
Opening the door, Mingmin greeted him warmly. Zhao Guoqiang came to her new home for the first time, but Mingxiao didn't know how many times he had been there, and he was very familiar.
After moving all the luggage into the door, Mingxiao wiped his sweat while taking the water cup handed by his sister and asked, "Minmin, where is Mengmeng?" Why don't you see this little girl? ”
"She's still sleeping." Ming Min looked at the time of the clock on the wall: "It's only 8:40 now, this girl is on summer vacation, and she can't get up if she doesn't sleep until 9 o'clock every day." I have to go to school tomorrow, and I really don't know what she's going to do then. ”
Ming Min smiled a little helplessly, the baby daughter was afraid of melting in her mouth, holding it in her hand for fear of falling, and she was only 10 years old. Even if I know that she is not good in bed, I am reluctant to be harsh.
"Auntie, if the children are in charge. Leave this task to me later. Zhao Yiming answered. He promised Ming Min to take Wang Mengmeng with him before, and it is not an exaggeration to say this now.
It's just that what he said made Ming Xiao laugh: "You really think so? ”
"Of course." Zhao Yiming's face remained unchanged. However, under the pressure of his mother's gaze, he couldn't help but say one more sentence: "Apply what you have learned!" Apply what you've learned! ”
"Oh, what's the story of applying what you've learned?" Ming Min asked curiously.
"Xiaomin, you don't know." Zhao Guoqiang took over the conversation: "Obviously, he was tossed by his sister this summer. I wake up at 6 a.m. every morning, run a few kilometers, and punch for another hour. He was looking for an apprentice, and to train an apprentice the same way his sister trained him. Take a breath! ”
Hearing his brother-in-law's explanation, Mingmin also laughed: "Tongtong is not for Mingming's good." Obviously, I agree that you will also train and train my family Mengmeng, which will give you anger and exercise her. ”
"But you have to take it easy. Meng Meng is still young, and the amount of exercise should be reduced. ”
Agree to agree, she loves her daughter and says another word in the end.
"No problem, auntie. I'm measured in this. Zhao Yiming hurriedly patted his chest and agreed.
After chatting for a while, I took a break for a while.
The two women went upstairs with Zhao Yatong's luggage, and they went to decorate the room for the old lady. And Zhao Yiming's room is only done by him and his father Zhao Guoqiang.
Zhao Yiming's room is the only bedroom on the first floor that was set last time.
It turned out that Ming Min was going to be used as a nanny room, so the decoration was relatively simple. Just painted the walls with a layer of white paint. The floor is also paved with floor tiles instead of floors, and the original furnishings are very simple, just a single bed, a bedside table, and a wardrobe.
Since Zhao Yiming decided to have this one, Ming Min found someone to paint the room again with high-end environmental protection paint and add some lighting. The furniture has also been replaced with a double bed, a modular wardrobe, a bookcase and a nice-looking writing desk with an extra high-end chair in front of it.
With such a change, the style of the room immediately improved a lot.
Zhao Yiming actually didn't have high requirements for room decoration, and he was quite satisfied with it before. What he liked was that the room was big enough, this room was 30 square meters. He liked the feeling of leniency.
Moreover, this bedroom also has a large balcony and bathroom.
This makes Zhao Yiming, who will live with a group of large, medium and small women in the future, very satisfied, and he can avoid some embarrassment in the future, whether he goes to the toilet, takes a bath or washes clothes.
"Dad, this is used for the computer."
"Well, I'm going to add a washing machine to this bathroom. What do you think, Dad? ”
After tidying up the house, Zhao Yiming muttered in front of Zhao Guoqiang.
Before moving to his aunt's house, Zhao Yiming specially discussed with his parents. Ask for a sum of money to buy some essential durable goods. This purchase plan was originally a desktop computer and a laptop. Now I have added a set of computer desks and chairs, and a washing machine.
"Okay, no problem." Zhao Guoqiang agreed to it.
Zhao Guoqiang and his family naturally will not regret what they promised. None of these things add up to more than 20,000 pieces. You must know that Zhao Yiming has earned 220,000 yuan for his family this summer.
He just spent a fraction of the time, Zhao Guoqiang and Ming Xiao were unwilling. Of course, if it was spent on business, the couple would not frown if they spent the 220,000 yuan. But if it is any crooked and evil way, they will not give Zhao Yiming a penny. Zhao Guoqiang and Ming Xiao are now collecting money for him, and they are also afraid that Zhao Yiming will spend it indiscriminately if he has money.
For this point, Zhao Yiming had no choice but to accept it. After all, he is still a 16-year-old minor, and adults don't dare to hand over hundreds of thousands of autonomy to him. Although adults are often unreliable, they can agree that children must be unreliable.
Of course, Zhao Yiming did not have the heart to fight for his mother, and he also achieved some results. Ming Xiao promised that if he wanted to buy any big items, he just had to mention them. As long as it is reasonable, it will be played. And he will also have 1,000 yuan of pocket money every month after he goes to school. This is three times higher than the average high school student's monthly allowance of two or three hundred, and it can be regarded as a local tyrant among high school students.
Now seeing that his father has complied with all his requests, Zhao Yiming's last trace of unhappiness about his inability to control his property before has also dissipated.
"Then Dad, let's go quickly."
As he spoke, he pulled Zhao Guoqiang out of the door. It's not even 10 a.m., and it's too late to get home for lunch.
