Chapter 104, Substitute for the Head
Jin Zhu and Li Xiang just walked to the door of the supermarket and were about to store their schoolbags when Li Xiang suddenly stood up and looked at the front with a rather strange expression.
Jin Zhu looked at him in the eyes, and a family of four came to him, the man was carrying two large bags of things, the woman was holding a four or five-year-old boy in her hand, the husband and wife were talking and laughing, and there was a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl next to her, holding a toy in her hand and teasing the little boy while walking.
It's really a family that loves each other.
Tian Yougui found the gold bead first and said something to Li Xiaolian next to him, Li Xiaolian's eyes widened in surprise and turned to the gold bead.
This is the first time Jin Zhu has seen the mother of the original owner, Li Xiaolian in her memory is a more timid woman, almost all year round with her head down, rarely free time, even less time to be happy, of course, there are few opinions of their own, Yang Dashan is what he says, otherwise he will not be beaten twice in three days, and he will only hold his child and cry after being beaten.
But Li Xiaolian in front of her is very different. The long black hair that used to be gone was gone, and a neat short hair was cut, the hair was light brown and slightly curly, which should have been permed and dyed; Also, the face that used to be sallow is now rosy, and the wrinkles on the face seem to be less; In addition, Li Xiaolian's eyes in her memory were either lifeless or rippling with tears, which was completely different from the bright smiling eyes that Fang Cai Jinzhu saw; In addition, Li Xiaolian used to be a tailor, but the clothes on her body were either gray or blue, and she was gloomy. But the woman in front of her was wearing a light purple tweed coat, a pair of black leggings underneath, and a pair of black high-heeled boots on her feet.
In a word. The person in front of me looks much younger than he did six years ago, and he has changed his style.
It can be seen that the man next to her has indeed changed her a lot and made up for her a lot.
Li Xiaolian didn't recognize Jin Zhu at first, and she just glanced through the window in the car that day, which was not real.
Her daughter has grown up. In addition to the facial features, a little trace of the past can be found, and Li Xiaolian feels strange in other places.
In the past, Jin Zhu was as timid and afraid as her. Because he is the eldest in the family, he has to help do a lot of things, but he can do a lot of mistakes when he does. So I was beaten and scolded a lot, so I developed the habit of always walking with my head down, not liking to talk, being afraid of seeing people, and being ashamed.
But the little girl in front of her has bright eyes and bright teeth, slim and elegant, looking forward to flying. Where is there still a shadow of the past?
It's not just temperament and charm. I don't dress like a country kid anymore. Today, Jin Zhu wore a sky blue fleece hoodie jacket, a pair of denim blue pants, a long hair shawl, and the hair on both sideburns was braided into a small twist braid hanging down in front, very refreshing and elegant.
"Jin Zhu, Jin Zhu ......" Li Xiaolian's lips moved twice, and tears fell.
Seeing this, Tian Yougui handed the things in his hand to the girl on the side. Stretched out his hand to take the child in Li Xiaolian's hand, and pushed Li Xiaolian forward. But Li Xiaolian still couldn't move.
Jin Zhu sighed and took the initiative to walk over, "What a coincidence, I ran into you again." ”
"It's a coincidence, it's a coincidence, go, go to the house and sit, since you're here, recognize the door." Tian Yougui said busily.
"No, I came to the county town with the school car to participate in the competition, and I have to leave soon, we ......"
Jin Zhu didn't finish his words, but saw Li Xiaolian cover her mouth and run out.
"Jin Zhu, don't blame your mother, it's not easy for your mother. It's not that she doesn't want you, it's just that she's really afraid of your dad, afraid of being involved with your dad again, afraid of ......"
"Uncle Tian, don't say it again, you go back and tell my mother, let her live her own life with peace of mind, we won't come over to disturb you, it's just a coincidence today."
After Jin Zhu finished speaking, he took two steps forward, thought about it and turned to Tian Yougui and said, "By the way, there is another sentence, please ask Uncle Tian to tell my mother, the four of us sisters and brothers are now able to support ourselves, and the days will definitely get better and better, none of us will point to it, and no one will rely on it." ”
As soon as Jin Zhu's words fell, Wu Lu hurriedly ran in,
"Jin Zhu, Jin Zhu, I, I just bumped into a woman......"
Wu Lu was halfway through speaking, when she heard Jin Zhu's words, she changed her words and said, "It turns out that that person is really your mother?" I mean, that guy looks very much like your mother. ”
Jin Zhu glanced at her, ignored her, and walked directly to the entrance of the supermarket, Li Xiang hurriedly ran forward and took two steps, directly untied the schoolbag from Jin Zhu's back, and took a piece to store.
The two bought things and came out of the supermarket, Li Xiang sent Jinzhu to the car, and sat down directly next to Jinzhu.
"You're going home too?"
"I'll go back and get some clothes."
Li Xiang originally didn't plan to go back to the village with Jinzhu, but when he witnessed Jinzhu and Li Xiaolian's meeting just now, he felt very sorry for Jinzhu. Because he didn't know that this gold bead was no longer the other gold bead, so according to the nature of the mother and daughter, he was worried that Jin Zhu would not be able to bear this, so he wanted to be by Jin Zhu's side.
Of course, Jin Zhu guessed Li Xiang's intentions, and was just about to open his mouth to persuade him to go back to school, but he saw Sun Quan carrying a large bag and a small bag in the car, and then, Zhou Chuanying and others also came back one after another, and Jin Zhu had to keep his mouth shut.
"Li Xiang, what, are you going to follow us home?" Zhou Chuanying saw that Li wanted to sit next to Jin Zhu, and asked with a smile.
"Yes, it's cold, I want to take a ride home to get a few clothes, isn't there a ready-made hitchhiker?" Li Xiang had already thought of his rhetoric.
"Come on, Li Xiang, come here, tell the teacher, I heard that you are going to participate in the winter camp of the National Mathematics League, do you have the opportunity to go abroad to participate in the competition?" Sun Quan snatched the words away.
"How can it be so easy? It is too difficult to get a good ranking in the winter camp to have a chance to enter the national training team and represent the country in world competitions. Li wanted to talk, but he didn't sit down next to Sun Quan.
"Oh, then are you going to train in the province in advance?"
"I don't have so much time anymore, I'm a junior in high school, and I can't bet all my treasures in one place."
At this time, Wu Lu interjected and asked, "Brother Xiang." If you go abroad to participate in competitions and win prizes, will you be able to study abroad? ”
Children in the countryside have a near-instinctive yearning for foreign countries, so Wu Lu listened to Sun Quan's words and took the initiative to turn around and talk to Li Xiang.
"Who are you?" Li Xiang asked deliberately.
Of course he recognized Wu Lu. It's just that I don't feel comfortable when I hear the other party's "Brother A Xiang", after all, the two are not familiar with each other.
"I'm Wu Lu, I'm Jinzhu's cousin, we met at Jinzhu's house, don't you remember?" Wu Lu thought that Li Xiang really didn't know her, so she hurriedly carried the gold bead out.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm a sensitive person to numbers, and I don't recognize people. ”
"Li Xiang, I heard that you have won prizes in the city's physics and chemistry competitions. How did you learn mathematics, physics and chemistry, and why are you so good? What did you want to major in college? Liu Wenwen also asked with admiration on her face.
"How can it be as powerful as you say? It's just slightly better than the average classmate. In fact, it is not difficult to learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, listen carefully in class, and read more books after class. Do more different types of questions. It shouldn't be a big deal. Of course, the key depends on whether the teacher can teach or not, and whether he is willing to teach with his heart. ”
Zhou Chuanying was worried that Sun Quan's face would not be able to pass, and he wanted to make a mistake, but he was afraid that the traces would be too heavy for Sun Quan to see; But don't interrupt, this topic can't continue, which annoys Sun Quan. There is no half-benefit to the gold beads.
Not only did Zhou Chuanying not understand Li Xiang's intentions, but even Jin Zhu didn't understand why Li Xiang was so abrupt to offend Sun Quan. But she couldn't pick up the topic.
Fortunately, when the other students in the car heard that this was the famous Li Xiang, they were all excited.
Jin Zhu saw that he couldn't interject, so he simply closed his eyes and recuperated.
"Classmate Li Xiang, can I boldly ask, are you really in early love with classmate Yang Jinzhu?" A second-year female junior high school classmate whom Jin Zhu didn't know asked.
"Of course not, we are in a village, and the relationship between the two families is closer, don't spread the word, several teachers are here." After Li Xiang finished speaking, he took a special look at Jin Zhu.
Jin Zhu still had her eyes closed, she was almost numb to this question, she had been passed on for more than a year, and she had been asked for more than a year, and even she, an ancient, had cultivated it.
In fact, she herself doesn't know how to position the relationship between her and Li Xiang, anyway, she herself doesn't recognize the relationship between lovers, first, she is still young, and second, she rejects the word private life from the bottom of her heart.
But then again, the relationship between the two has long surpassed that of ordinary friends, in each other's hearts, both of them have long regarded each other as relatives, Li Xiang is the person that Jin Zhu values the most in addition to Jin Yang, Jin Liu, and Jin Niu, and is the fourth person in rank, and Jin Zhu is the person who Li Xiang is only ranked after Mapo, and is the person who ranks second.
Such a relationship, Jin Zhu really doesn't know how to position.
"Li Xiang, this is your mistake, you have chased here, what else is there to be embarrassed to admit? You say this, where do you put the face of a little girl in the family? Sun Quan's face showed that mocking smile again.
This finally gave him a chance to fight back.
Who made Li Xiang not big or small, but in front of so many people, he accused him of not teaching hard? It seems that this gold bead is not less bad for him in the back.
This Li Xiang is also true, a student who used to be quite obedient, but now for Jinzhu, even the teacher dares to accuse and contradict, it can be seen that this Yang Jinzhu is not a good bird at all.
Those who are close to ink are black.
Originally, Sun Quan also wanted to spend some time to envelop Li Xiang, who knows if such a promising student can borrow some light in the future, but now it seems to be useless, with Yang Jinzhu here, he Sun Quan simply don't think about it.
"Teacher Sun, what is there to be embarrassed to admit this? We really don't have that kind of relationship now, and I have to admit it, that's why Jinzhu can't hold his head up. In those years, you and Teacher Zhou taught us a lot, the task of students is to learn, and I never dared to forget the teachings of teachers for a moment. ”
"Okay, these high-sounding words are reserved for outsiders to say, they all say that you don't say dark words in front of the Ming, you kid is still fake in front of us. The teacher told you that these are all leftovers from our young play, and to be honest, what is the relationship between the two of you? Sun Quan didn't want to let go of these two people easily.
"If I have to say that I have anything else to do with Jinzhu, I should be half of Jinzhu's teacher, right? Jin Zhu's science is quite poor, and I will help her tutor every vacation. Unfortunately, it didn't work much. By the way, Mr. Sun, I was just about to ask you, how is Jinzhu's math in the past six months? I haven't been home for months, and I haven't had a chance to ask her about her schoolwork. Li Xiang asked generously, with a tone like that of a Jinzhu parent.
"You have to ask her about this, if you have the heart to learn, you can naturally learn well, if you don't have the heart to learn, then I can't control it. For example, didn't I teach you both? But I don't need to talk about the gap between you, right? Sun Quan's face pulled down again.
He didn't quite understand, what exactly did Li Xiang want to do?
If he wants to stand out for Jin Zhu, he should also weigh himself, right? Even if he is the first math champion in the province, what is the use? Isn't he still a student? A student with no power and no background?
"That's right, a person's talent is really important, Jin Zhu is extremely talented in liberal arts, and even I can't sigh at the articles I write. Otherwise, no one would have been upset about Jinzhu in last year's city-wide essay competition. You said that the current network is really powerful, and a few people have been so mixed up on the Internet that the city education and county education bureaus have come out to clarify in writing, and I heard that several people have been implicated. ”
At this point, Sun Quan understood Li Xiang's intentions, if Sun Quan insisted on embarrassing Jinzhu, then he could poke his matter on the Internet, no matter whether this matter could be confirmed or not, he would become a controversial teacher, in this way, his transfer would be completely stopped in the future.
After figuring out the joints, Sun Quan almost gritted his teeth and said, "Really? I never inquire about those messy rumors, and besides, there are no such conditions in the countryside, and I don't have any other hope now, just hope that these students can learn well and have a good future, so that we teachers can spend so much effort for them, don't you say? Teacher Zhou, Teacher Wen? ”
As soon as Li Xiang heard Sun Quan's words, he understood what the other party meant, smiled, and changed to another topic.
Actually, he didn't want to do that. But during this time, he was so busy that he didn't have time to make up for Jinzhu, and Jinzhu was at the critical time of the high school entrance examination, and Li Xiang had to sweat for Jinzhu.
It is not Li Xiang's goal to be admitted to the county No. 1 middle school, Li Xiang hopes that Jinzhu can enter the experimental class, the teachers, teaching conditions and learning environment of the experimental class are not comparable to ordinary classes, and the experimental class in high school is not like junior high school, which can be entered through the back door, so Li Xiang was in a hurry and had to come out of this for Jinzhu.
