Chapter 206: Back to my hometown

"Good sister, didn't you say you wanted to learn kung fu, I'll teach you. It's absolutely no problem to learn to fight three hooligans well! ”

"Really!?" Shen Ting asked in surprise, seeing Xia Bingning nodding without hesitation, she suddenly laughed: "Great, this time is over, I'll learn from Sister Bingning, arm yourself well, we girls just have to be a little more powerful in order not to be bullied!" ”

As she spoke, Shen Ting's eyes glanced at Gu Cheng intentionally or unintentionally. made Gu Cheng feel depressed, and Xia Bingning was extremely vigilant!

Looking at Gu Cheng and Shen Ting, they have already begun to flirt!? The female secretary who spreads the word of mouth, really can't escape?

Xia Bingning was a little worried about her sister Zining! At the same time, I made up my mind to carefully observe the relationship between these two people in the future.

Now that the matter has been resolved, Gu Cheng and the others will no longer stay, and they will say goodbye, Xia Bingning enthusiastically pulled Shen Ting and took the initiative to send her home.

In the next few days, there was nothing to do, Gu Cheng gave Shen Ting a long vacation, and asked her to follow Xia Bingning to learn some fist and kick moves as soon as possible, while she sat in the classroom all day because the final exam was approaching, burying her head in the books.

The scorching summer of July, knowing that the roar does not stop, the campus of Shunshui Middle School after sending away the students of the two grades, suddenly seems to be a lot empty, a lot of deserted, the parting at the end of the semester, although it is not as sad as graduation, but it is also contaminated with the unique sadness of young people, ignorance of the future, attachment to friendship, and perhaps many unspeakable secret loves hidden in the bottom of the heart.

At the end of the semester, there are not many courses, all of which are practicing some exercises, making some papers, one by one, page by page, one class and two classes just passing, in exchange for bright red scores, which makes people moody!

As a provincial key, you have a lot of privileges, at least the regular monthly exams, you can decide for yourself. In the first year of high school, there is no custom of monthly exams, but at the end of the summer semester, it is a matter of class division, and the school also attaches great importance to it, and arranges two exams in two weeks in a row, which is limited to the first year of high school.

In the eyes of everyone, except for himself, all the people in the school value nothing more than Gu Cheng, who is famous on campus. After a chic life of not attending classes all day, can Gu Cheng still take the exam? How many points can I get?

For the first time, there were six hundred and fifty-two people at the whole level and one hundred and sixty-three people at all levels, this was Gu Cheng. And Xia Zining's results have been steadily ranked in the top ten of the grade, the first time she is fourth, and the second time, she is seventh.

If the first time to find out, more than 600 can be said to be a mistake, then the second time, there is less than a week left before the final exam, Gu Cheng's ranking is enough to make others feel good.

From the top students to more than a hundred, although he is still in front of most people, in the eyes of good students and good teachers, Gu Cheng has undoubtedly plummeted and fallen into the abyss!

For a while, rumors spread everywhere, Gu Cheng's arrogant past made him a thorn in the side of many people, I can't wait to see him fall off the altar, he alone stole the limelight of all the boys, and shamed countless good students who worked hard, the so-called enemies are too much, and at this time he shows his power!

Class Nine itself is better, although Gu Cheng basically doesn't come to class, but when he comes, he laughs at everyone, so everyone has a good impression of him, but the rest of the strangers don't talk so well.

There are those who sneer, those who fall into the well, and those who curse and laugh with red eyes are even more numerous. And the head teacher Wang Li can obviously feel the strange eyes of her colleagues, and she has been overwhelmed, but now she also pretends to come over to ask, pretending to be concerned about Gu Cheng's achievements. It made her very annoyed, so Gu Cheng also suffered!

In the room of the teacher's apartment, Wang Li looked at Gu Cheng with a disdainful face, criticized a few words, and said a little angrily.

"Gu Cheng, what's going on with this exam? Didn't you say no problem? ”

Touching his head, Gu Cheng was a little embarrassed: "Teacher Wang, I haven't had time to finish the review yet, but don't worry." I'm sure I'll be able to read it when I get to the exam, and it's definitely going to be fine. ”

"Huh? It's true? You haven't finished reading your books yet? Wang Li will be skeptical.

"Yes! I've reviewed it, I've answered it all, and there's still a few days to go, so I'll finish reading it right away! ”

"Well, don't worry about the company these days, concentrate on reading more books." Wang Li knew Gu Cheng's current situation, on the one hand, she was amazed by his talent and ability, and on the other hand, she also felt that she couldn't manage it.

"The teacher doesn't say much, anyway, you can do it yourself. This exam is related to the division of arts and sciences in the second year of high school, so it is better to put more thought into it. ”

"Hmm!" Gu Cheng nodded: "Don't worry, it'll be fine." ”

"I hope so, you go to class!" Wang Li commanded.

At the end of the self-study that night, the students went home separately, Xia Zining carried a small bag, entered the classroom with a smile, and sat next to Gu Cheng.

"Gu Cheng, are you okay?"

"Hmm, what's wrong?" Gu Cheng was strange.

Xia Zining's bright eyes looked at Gu Cheng, and when she saw that he was normal, she said with confidence: "I heard that you were called by the teacher, and I am afraid that you will be angry." ”

"How so!" Gu Cheng smiled, rubbed the girl's head lovingly, and put down his hand when he saw that she was pouting dissatisfied: "Although I hope to do well in the exam, do you think I will care about this?" ”

"That's just as well!" Xia Zining agreed, but said with a tense face: "No, you have to get good grades in the exam, otherwise you will be classified!" ”

"Where?" Gu Cheng asked with a smile.

"I just can't, hum, big villain, you know how to laugh at me." Xia Zining was about to explain, but when she saw Gu Cheng's expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, it was not clear.

"Hehe, okay, I'll admit defeat, stop fighting!" Gu Cheng stretched out his arm to hold the girl's pink fist, and gently hit his body without pain, but like frolic. After a while, Xia Zining stopped, glanced at Gu Cheng with white eyes, and took out the test paper in her bag.

"Alright, let's hurry up and do the question."

For a few days, Gu Cheng didn't pay attention to anything else, filling in the exercise papers by himself during the day, and reviewing and discussing with Xia Zining at night, and the time passed quickly.

On July 11th, the final exam of the first year of high school in Shunshui Middle School has officially begun!

The detailed scene does not need to be detailed, in the dark for a few days, Gu Cheng did his best, fortunately, he felt that the test paper was filled in easily, there were almost no obstacles, and he often finished answering early.

On the 14th, after finishing the last exam in the morning, Gu Cheng talked to Xia Zining a little, and then he was busy with the circle software.

After a busy day, he went home to rest, and when he got up the next day, Gu Cheng got in the car and drove all the way out of the county and to his hometown in the north of the county. The number of people in the first medicinal material is slowly increasing, and it is time to ask my brother Gu Fei for help!

The streets along the roadside in Shanghu Town seem to be rushing to the market, and there are many stalls on the street that are bustling with people, and it is very lively, Gu Cheng honked the horn drippingly, and it took a long time to stop in front of the Uncle Restaurant and get off.

The good car is watched by everyone, and a group of big men behind Gu Cheng are mostly shirtless in the summer, squinting and discussing, and those with sharp eyes who remember their surnames are good, and they wonder if they are wrong. Isn't this young man the Gu family baby who died in an accident!

"Uncle, aunt!" The fan of the restaurant was whirring, and there were three diners sitting inside, and Gu Cheng shouted at the inside when he entered the house.

"Gu Cheng!?" Gu Shan, who was in the kitchen, poked his head out of the small window and took a look, and suddenly shouted in surprise.

"Why are you back?" Gu Shan immediately walked out and asked.

"Hehe, something." Gu Cheng smiled, opened the curtain and looked into the inner room: "What about my aunt?" What about Phineas? ”

Gu Shan washed his hands at the faucet, and then wiped it on his apron: "Let's go, come into the house and talk." ”

When he arrived at the back room, Gu Shan poured Gu Cheng a glass of water before saying, "You Fei Ge works with people, your aunt just went out to buy meat in the wholesale department, let's go to the market today, prepare more." Xiuxiu is taking an exam at school, and she is probably coming back soon! Have you eaten? ”

"Uh, I didn't eat it. My Fei Ge works for people? Where is it? When Gu Cheng heard this, he hurriedly asked.

"I didn't go anywhere, just the Murakami construction team, in the past two days, I have been moving bricks and building houses with people, and I can get dozens of dollars a day." Gu Shan replied, and then stood up: "You sit and watch TV first, I'll get you something to eat, what do you want to eat?" ”

"Just porridge and steamed buns." Gu Cheng was a little curious: "Who is with the village, just me Feige, and I still move bricks!" ”

Gu Shan also smiled when he heard this, with a relieved expression on his face: "No, he doesn't fall in love with the ground when he is young, I just said that I can't endure hardship, but a few days ago I said that I would move bricks to make money, and I am very strange with your aunt!" ”

"Oh!" Gu Cheng nodded, sat in the living room, didn't turn on the TV, and drank water and thought.

He knows his cousin Gu Fei very well. People who don't have any big ambitions, who are small and rich, have good family conditions, so they haven't been able to endure hardships very much. Of course, the lazy Gu Cheng is even more qualified to talk about it!

However, what a big deal it is to let Gu Fei, who is easily satisfied, take the initiative to move bricks!

Could it be that Gu Cheng's heart moved! College students, it's time to graduate!

After a while, the aunt also came back with a plastic bag and greeted Gu Cheng.

Gu Shan brought the porridge he boiled at home, as well as freshly scrambled eggs, cabbage and pork to the table, Gu Cheng gobbled it up and filled it into his stomach, and when he was full, he didn't need his help in the restaurant, so he went to the street.

Compared with the hustle and bustle of the city every day, the market in the countryside seems to be more lively every few days. Whether it is a shop, or a stall with a tricycle and a small bread, or some craftsmen in the village below who spread out plastic stalls on the spot. The scene is very noisy, there are those who sell cloth, some sell vegetables, some sell clothes, some sell shoes, some old ladies sell some self-woven insoles, there are old men who set up a machine to help people repair the bottom of the pot, and there are a large number of various food stalls, and a few bamboo ring set toys, often, the little hairy children like the most these two places.

Gu Cheng was very happy, with ice cream in one hand, watermelon in the other, licking on the left and one on the right, and the children who were holding their parents in their arms with runny nose and staring at him with burning eyes.

Although Gu Cheng's home is in the county, whether it is in childhood or after growing up, he also lives in the countryside most of the time, so he often feels very amiable when he looks at the surrounding scenes.

After shopping for a long time, three or two streets were also walked, and when the sun was in the sky at noon, the temperature slowly warmed up, and Gu Cheng hurried back to his uncle's house.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw my cousin Gu Xiu sitting on a chair watching TV, Gu Cheng asked with a smile, "Xiu, are you done with the exam?" ”

"Huh? Brother, you're back. I just heard from my mother that you came from the county, is the car at the door yours? Gu Xiu stood up in surprise and asked curiously.

"Yes!" Gu Cheng nodded.

"So, what the people on the street say is true?" Gu Xiuxiao's face was incredulous.

"What's really fake?" Gu Cheng asked.

Gu Xiu replied: "Some time ago, someone said that you became a big boss, and what other projects were held, brother, is that you?" ”

Touching his head, Gu Cheng replied with a smile: "Yes, I didn't scare you!" ”

"No, no, I'll go talk to my parents!" Gu Xiu ran out excitedly.

After a while, Gu Shan and his wife walked in together, and as soon as they entered the door, they asked loudly, "Chengwa, is the car at the door really yours?" ”

"Yes, uncle." Gu Cheng nodded.

"Can you afford to drive? What did you do? Gu Shan was surprised.

"Uncle, that's right." Subsequently, Gu Cheng told about the development process of some careers, and the three relatives who listened were stunned.

"This?" Gu Shan's mouth was wide open, her aunt Zhang Hong was stunned and demented, and Gu Xiu's eyes were round and she smiled happily.

After a pause, Gu Shancai said, "Then why don't you tell your uncle about it, you made such a big mess quietly." ”

"Uncle, at the beginning, I was worried about whether I could succeed all day, and I will tell you when I think about it. Later, I was too busy and forgot about it. Gu Cheng apologized with a guilty face.

"It's fine." Gu Shan waved his hand, sat down in the chair with a backrest, and drank saliva tremblingly, before he remembered something: "You have made a big company, we don't understand, and we can't help much." What are you doing here? That's not all, right? ”

"Yes." Gu Cheng bowed: "Uncle, now I'm in the south of the county, I have contracted a piece of land, and I have found someone to be in charge, it's very easy to manage people, I thought that Brother Fei doesn't know how to use computers, this is no problem, so I came over." ”

"You told Fei Ge to go farming?" Auntie repeated.

"It's not!" Gu Cheng shook his head: "He doesn't care about farming, I hire people, he helps me watch people, don't let people be lazy!" ”

"Brother, so good? Then my brother must die of joy. He has been moving bricks for people in the past few days, and he has lost a lot of weight! Gu Xiu cheered first.

"Huh! It's just that now that I have some ability, I can't exhaust myself. Xiu, when you finish college, you will also come to my brother's company to help. Gu Cheng said.

"Hmmm! No problem! Gu Xiu nodded his head violently, very happy.

"Also, uncle, if you don't want to do business one day, you can come over, I'll find you an easy job and keep it comfortable!" Gu Cheng turned his head and said.

Gu Shan was happy when he heard this, and grinned very pleased: "My restaurant is okay, let's talk about it then." It's your Brother Fei, it's not a matter of moving bricks, you can think of him, and it's not in vain for me and your aunt to work hard. ”

Hearing this, Gu Cheng's expression was solemn, and he bent down and bowed: "Uncle, aunt, I will always remember your kindness to me." Now that you have the ability, it's time to repay! ”

"Look at you kid, that's what you say." Auntie's eyes were red, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and pulled Gu Cheng to sit down: "What can the two of us want, people who have lived for half a lifetime, that is, in the future, with the support of you Feige and Xiu'er, our family will only have the three of you, just live a good life!" ”

"Look at you, what are you crying about, this is a great day, how festive!" Gu Shan frowned and blamed, then walked to the phone: "I'll call the village and ask you Brother Fei to come over." ”

"Oh! No, uncle, I'll pick him up by car, just in time to go back to the village to have a look! Gu Cheng hurriedly said.

Gu Shan hesitated for a moment: "Okay, you go to the village, come over when it's dark, and tonight Uncle will make us a table to celebrate!" ”

"No problem, then I'll go first!" Gu Cheng nodded yes, and then stepped out of the door.

"Brother, shall I go with you?" When Gu Cheng got into the car, he heard Gu Xiu shouting outside, and walked to the window full of anticipation.

"Get in the car!" Gu Cheng smiled.

"Wow! That's great! Gu Xiu immediately cheered when he heard this, and then quickly got into the car, sat in the back seat and looked at it excitedly.

With the air conditioner turned on, soft music played, and slowly drove out of the street, he stepped onto an asphalt road. Shanghu Town has a flat terrain, so the road is also relatively well repaired, unlike many towns in the south of the county or stone roads, basically the main roads of the township are paved with asphalt. Although it is not very good, in the summer, a little less dust is a very rare thing.

The wind was galloping, the wheels turned, and when they arrived at the entrance of Gu Village, Gu Cheng twisted the steering wheel, and then drove towards the village. It's no wonder that it's one or two o'clock in the middle of the day, the hottest time of the day.

The dusty dirt road, paved with some black-brown carbon slag, Gu Cheng squinted through the narrow lanes of the village and parked his car under the big tree in front of the old house.

The old house is Gu Cheng's hometown, where his grandparents once lived, the two plane trees at the door have grown for more than ten years, the branches and leaves are luxuriant and shaded, and the open space at the door is full of small holes, all of which are holes drilled out by the larvae. The red brick wall, with a dark red wooden door in the center, Gu Xiu jumped out of the car, jumped to the door happily, and saw that the door was unlocked, so he clapped his little hands and shouted.

"Brother, brother, open the door. I'm Xiu. ”

The weather was hot and confusing, so at this time, every family was taking a nap behind closed doors, and no one noticed Gu Cheng's arrival. After a pause, a surprised voice came out from inside: "Xiu'er? What are you doing here? ”

The door bolt was opened with a squeak, and the door was pulled open from the inside, Gu Cheng hurriedly stepped forward and greeted with a smile: "Brother Fei!" ”

"Gu Cheng!? Why are you here? ”
