This afternoon, although she didn't do business, she got a set of textbooks, which made Zhang Xiaoqiang extremely happy. She excitedly returned to her residence with her textbook.

As soon as she returned to the house, she couldn't wait to open the textbook, the long-lost book, it seems that she is really a lover of books, there is not even a corner, it is flat and spread. Chinese, politics, history, geography, mathematics, foreign languages, except for English, Zhang Xiaoqiang has not been exposed to it, and there is no big problem with the others.

I exchanged pens, notebooks and other stationery from the plane system, and started the three-year high school course.

In the next few days, I will continue to sell steamed buns, send steamed buns to designated places, and study in my spare time. Fortunately, the knowledge points in each book are recorded, and it seems that the owner of this book should also be a scholar or something.

In particular, there are detailed explanations of the knowledge difficulties of history and geography. It looks very easy this way, and the key parts are easy to grasp and understand.

Aunt Wen's Xiao Liu has been to the bun stall a few times to buy steamed buns for Uncle Ji, Zhang Xiaoqiang asked with concern if Auntie's foot injury has healed, and Xiao Liu said that she can walk normally.

In the next few days, Aunt Wen also came to the bun stall a few times and chatted with Zhang Xiaoqiang about the college entrance examination.

Aunt Wen said: "Miss Xiaoqiang, I asked an acquaintance, and he told me some college entrance examination policies, and I came to tell you about them. Yes, if you have not gone to high school, but have the same learning ability, you can apply for the exam. Your three-year high school course is blank, I suggest you study liberal arts, English scores are not included in the total score, it can be said that people like you who have no English foundation can not take the test. You can sign up in March next year, open a certificate in your village, and then come to the county seat to register. ”

Aunt Wen's special words are simply great news for Zhang Xiaoqiang.

The temperature is getting lower and lower day by day, and winter is so unscrupulous and arbitrary to vent his coldness. On the last day, it snowed, and the frozen Zhang Xiaoqiang shrank her neck. There are very few pedestrians, Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't sell many buns in the morning, and the rest went to Boss Guo's restaurant to give them away, and by the way, today is the last day.

Pushing the car on the snow, creaking, and after the delivery to the last one, Boss Guo was sitting in front of the red stove and reading magazines. As usual, after typing the receipt and taking the money, Zhang Xiaoqiang said: "Brother Guo, today is my last day, and I will go home tomorrow, and we will see you after the New Year." ”

Boss Guo looked at the weather outside, frowned, and said, "Yes, it's cold, is there anything I can do to help you?" ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang said: "No need, I've cleaned it up, thank you Brother Guo for taking care of me during this time." ”

Guo Yifan waved his hand at the waiter in the store and said, "Let's have a bowl of dumplings for Miss Xiaoqiang." ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang hurriedly said: "No, no, no! ”

"Look, I've been busy for most of the day, so I must have not eaten! Eat something first, you can also warm up. Guo Yifan insisted that Zhang Xiaoqiang eat before leaving.

Zhang Xiaoqiang couldn't excuse herself, so she sat down. Guo Yifan continued to read his magazine, and there were people eating in and out of the store, and Guo Yifan seemed very focused.

The waiter brought a bowl of sour soup dumplings, one by one snow-white dumplings in the soup with coriander foam, the red spicy seeds, the green coriander leaves are very beautiful, steaming.

Zhang Xiaoqiang sniffed, she was betrayed by her stomach. She is indeed hungry, she is usually very frugal, and her meals are very simple, so this bowl of dumplings is very luxurious.

The pace of eating seemed to be a little faster, and after a while, the bowl bottomed out and the soup was all drunk. Zhang Xiaoqiang was a little surprised by the speed of eating this time, and she was a little embarrassed.

Guo Yifan glanced up at Zhang Xiaoqiang, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth: "You didn't eat just now, haha, is it better to be hungry or comfortable?" ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang wiped her mouth with the back of her hand and said, "Thank you, Brother Guo!" ”

Guo Yifan continued to look down at his magazine, still looking focused.

Zhang Xiaoqiang walked out of the restaurant, and a gust of cold wind poured into her collar. She staggered, pushed the cart and hurried down the alley. Where no one is around, put this car in the plane ring.

Because she was going back, when she went to her residence, she went to the department store by the way, and looked around to see what she needed to buy. When she was about to take another look, she thought about it, isn't there a plane mall? Just exchange what you need when you go back. In this way, you can save money and use it when you go to college next year.

I left the department store and returned to where I lived. I told the proprietress of the guest house about leaving tomorrow, settled the rent, and the proprietress said: "You come next year, the house will be kept for you, and no one will live in it when the year is closed." ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang returned to the house, this time the most valuable thing was these books, she wrapped the schoolbook and put it in the plane ring.

There wasn't much other luggage, just a few clothes or something, packed up, and put them in the plane ring as usual. Some of the small items that you carried with you were in a yellow canvas crossbody bag.

At night, I went to bed early, but this night, outside the house, the north wind roared fiercely and the west wind roared.

When I woke up in the morning, the snow was already thick. Wearing a scarf and gloves, I went to the place where I used to hire a carriage, and there was no trace of the carriage for a long time.

Zhang Xiaoqiang asked the grocery seller next to him very anxiously, and the grocery seller said: "There is no business these days, and the person who drove the car has not come out when he goes home." After speaking, he told her that the driver was in front of him and turned left in the alley, and the words "Rent a carriage" were written on the door.

Zhang Xiaoqiang walked in the direction of the grocery seller, and sure enough, she found the house of the coachman she had hired.

Knocking on the door, the driver said, "Girl, why are you here?" ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang said, "Uncle, can you send me home?" ”

The driver looked at the weather outside and looked hesitant.

Zhang Xiaoqiang said: "That's it, I'll add five yuan to you, please take a trip." ”

The driver said, "Yes! He turned around and took the whip off the wall and drove the livestock out of the backyard.

A voice came from inside the house and said, "Old man, it's snowing, stay safe!" A few more coughs rang out.

When the animal saw the snow, he was too lazy not to step on his hooves. The driver whipped him hard, he asked Zhang Xiaoqiang to sit on the car, told him to sit firmly, and the car moved slowly like this.

Zhang Xiaoqiang sat in the tent of the car, and the back of the uncle who drove the car instantly became a snowman. The world on the side of the road is really covered in silver, the carriage is going unusually slowly, Zhang Xiaoqiang said to the uncle who is driving the car: "Uncle, I'm not in a hurry, you slow down!" ”

The uncle said, "Girl, thank you, I know." ”
