Jin Zhu actually wanted to help Li Xiang, but how to give this money to Li Xiang was a big problem.

First of all, Jin Zhu is not sure why Li Xiang is alienating her now, such a large sum of money, Jin Zhu will give it away like this, will it bring trouble to Li Xiang?

Also, Jin Zhu is an ancient man in her bones, and Li Xiang is a foreign man to her, she is worried that if she does this, will it create an illusion that Jin Zhu wants to make a private life for life?

Another point, Jin Zhu knows that Li Xiang is also a boy with strong self-esteem, will he accept Jin Zhu's funding?

Therefore, Jin Zhu thought about it for a night and the result was that the money could not be lent to him for the time being, but she planned to give him a set of watercolor painting tools, which could be given to him as a thank you gift, shouldn't it be too much?

The next day, Zhou Shuixian invited the two daughters who got married to go home for New Year's wine, Yang Xiaolan came with her three children, her advanced Jinzhu family, brought a lot of vegetables to Jinzhu, and by the way, she wanted to pull the four Jinzhu sisters and brothers over to eat together.

"Sister-in-law, we won't go, last time my mother-in-law asked us for money, we didn't give it, she scolded us again, we won't make her unhappy." Jin Zhu said.

"What about scolding? That time, when the city cadres sent money, my mother-in-law robbed me of the money and slapped me again. Anyway, I won't go to her house for dinner, and whoever of you likes to go. Jin Yang said angrily, and hinted at Jin Liu and Jin Niu with his eyes.

Jin Liu and Jin Niu were also busy, shaking their heads and saying no.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaolan sighed, and said that she wanted to stay and help Jin Zhu cook something delicious, but Jin Zhu stopped her.

"Sister-in-law, I don't need to cook, I can do it myself. But I have something to ask you, we want to kill this big pig, do you think it's appropriate to kill now? ”

"What's wrong with that? The meat in our village has been selling well these days, and it is sold for 12 yuan a catty. After Yang Xiaolan finished speaking, she thought about it, and said: "That's it, your uncle and I were discussing buying half a pig to make some bacon and ham, and your pig will simply sell it to us, my sister-in-law won't let you suffer, you have to keep a little bit for bacon, right?" ”

"Then thank you sister-in-law, just leave us half a pork loin chop meat to make bacon, I don't want pork legs and water. There is another point, can the sister-in-law over there not talk about it first? ”

Jin Zhu originally didn't want to ask Yang Xiaolan for help, she was afraid that Zhou Shuixian would find out about the trouble, but Yang Xiaolan brought it up, and Jin Zhu could only agree, because the other party was really kind.

"Don't worry." Yang Xiaolan nodded hurriedly.

Tian Changshun brought someone to the next morning, because Jin Zhu didn't want to see that bloody scene, and Jin Yang also remembered the last time Jin Zhu fainted blood, so he begged Tian Changshun to tie up the pig directly, Jin Yang took Jin Liu and Jin Niu to follow, Jin Yang said to sell a handkerchief by the way.

After dinner, Tian Changshun sent the three of Jin Yang back, in addition to the 1,500 yuan for selling pork, there were also two large pots of marinated pork.

Actually, according to Yang Xiaolan's meaning, she wanted to send the bacon over after it was smoked, and it was Jin Yang who said that the previous bacon at home was smoked by Jin Zhu and her, so Yang Xiaolan was pickled and sent over.

When Zhou Shuixian got the news and rushed over, Jin Zhu had already deposited the money in the bank.

After Zhou Shuixian scolded Jin Zhu a few words, he still felt angry, and called Yang Xiaolan again when he went home, blaming her for not giving the money directly to Jin Zhu, and at the same time calling Yang Dashan to complain.

But this time, Yang Dashan didn't call Jin Zhu to answer the phone again for some reason.

Jin Zhu doesn't know any of this.

This holiday, she embroidered a handkerchief at home for a few days, and asked Jin Yang to take Jin Liu to sell the handkerchief for two more days, earning more than 500 yuan, with that money, Jin Zhu led Jin Yang to the town to catch a polder, and bought a pair of winter fleece pants and two cotton sweaters and pants for each of their sisters and brothers, and one of them also bought a pair of tourist shoes for 30 yuan.

As for the padded jackets and down jackets worn outside, because someone sent them when they received donations last time, it saved them a lot of money.

"Hey, what do you want? When I asked you, I didn't respond for a long time. During recess, Yang Qin poked Jin Zhu.

"Huh?" Jin Zhu looked up blankly.

Just now Zhou Chuanying gave her a remittance slip of fifty yuan, Jin Zhu didn't expect her essay to be published again, she was thinking about whether she could write more small articles like this in the future to sell for money, where did she hear what Yang Qin said.

"Let me ask you, have you seen Brother Ah Xiang this holiday?" Yang Qin thought that Jin Zhu deliberately didn't answer her question, so she specially bit the three words "Brother A Xiang" clearly.

"Nope. I've seen Shuyu. ”

"I know, she called me, you say, why didn't she wait for me to hurry back to the county." Yang Qin pouted.

She went back to her grandparents' house to spend the Miao New Year, and stayed there for two days, and when she returned to the village, Yang Shuyu had already followed her family back to the county.

"By the way, what are you asking Brother Xiang for?" Jin Zhu asked.

"I heard my dad say that Lao Zhou used to be Brother A Xiang's teacher, you said, you entered our class, did Brother A Xiang tell Brother Lao Zhou?" Yang Qin privately called Zhou Chuanying Lao Zhou.

"How did your dad know Mr. Zhou?"

"My dad came to Lao Zhou a few days ago to give some gifts, and he said that Brother Ah Xiang was his student, and asked him about jumping into the river at that time. Hehe, shhh, don't tell anyone. Yang Qin bit Jin Zhu's ear and said.

"Wouldn't it? Can Brother A Xiang have such a big face? Jin Zhu shook his head.

But there was a little doubt in my heart.

It's not that there are no classmates in their class who don't have good academic performance, but those people are all the brainstorms in the town or the children of school teachers, and people like Jin Zhu are the only ones who are nothing.

However, why didn't Brother Xiang tell her if he helped her?

Also, why didn't he come to see her these two times?

"By the way, when will your dad go to the county seat, will you tell me okay? But it's Saturday and Sunday. ”

Jinzhu remembered that she planned to send Li Xiang's watercolor painting tools, she went to inquire, there was no such thing in the whole town, such things had to go to the county seat or the city to sell stationery in places to match, but Yang Jinzhu grew so big, except for Tianjiazhai and the town, she had never been anywhere, and she Jinzhu was an ancient, and she was not out of the door, let her go to the county alone, she was really worried about her own trouble.

"What are you doing in the county seat?" Yang Qin came to be interested.

"It's a little thing." Jin Zhu pushed away her head, of course she wouldn't take it out and publicize this kind of thing.

Coincidentally, classes also started at this time.

Who knew that a week later, Mr. Zhou announced a good news in the class, the county's middle school students' essay contest was scheduled to be held on New Year's Day, and Jin Zhu, Xiyue and Li Yao from the second class would participate on behalf of the first grade group, led by Mr. Zhou.

In this way, Jinzhu does not have to follow Yang Baotian to the county seat.

On New Year's Day, Jin Zhu came to the school early in the morning, followed the teacher and classmates on the school van, all the way over the mountains and mountains, passing through two small towns about the same size as Wutong Town, the car entered a slightly wider and more prosperous street, the houses on both sides of the street are basically four or five stories high, and the unit signs hung on it are "Shangshan County XX Bureau", Jin Zhu knows that this is to the county seat.

By this time, it was already more than two hours later.

Jin Zhu also knew why Wutong Town was poor.

There is not much farmland on this road at all, most of it is mountains, thanks to this dynasty has this means of transportation called cars, otherwise, if it is in the Jinzhu dynasty, it is estimated that the people here will not be able to get out of these mountains for a lifetime.

In fact, the county seat is not big, there are two main streets in the north-south direction, one is called Shangshan Avenue, which is the street where Jinzhu they enter the city, on both sides are some government agencies and offices and schools, listen to Mr. Zhou said, the south side of this street is Shangshan Middle School, which is the best high school in the whole Shangshan County, and there is also a middle school in the north, which is the place where Jinzhu they compete, called Chengguan Middle School, which is a junior high school.

Because considering that it takes two or three hours for some remote towns to come to the county seat, the competition was held at half past one in the afternoon, and the time when Jin Zhu arrived at the county seat was half past ten.

The teachers took everyone to Chengguan Middle School to visit first, and when they came out, they said that they would take everyone to the neighborhood for lunch, at this time, Jin Zhu walked over and said to Zhou Chuanying that he wanted to go to the stationery store.

Teacher Zhou listened to the other two teachers to discuss where to eat, the car was parked in front of a restaurant, next to a stationery store, Teacher Zhou asked the other two teachers to take the students to order food first, he personally took the gold beads into the stationery store.

Jin Zhu had learned to paint in her previous life, so she naturally knew what she needed for watercolor painting, but she didn't dare to show it in front of Teacher Zhou, so she had to ask the clerk what a complete set of watercolor painting tools was.

The clerk made a list for Jin Zhu, paints, palettes, brushes, drawing boards, easels, paper, white liquid, water tape, backpacks and boxes for drawing boards, etc., the pigments and brushes were selected by Jin Zhu himself, and the others were recommended by the clerk, and after bargaining, Jin Zhu spent 500 yuan to buy this set of tools.

"Do you give it away or use it yourself?" Teacher Zhou asked.

"Give it away."

"Isn't it for Li?" Zhou Chuanying asked with a smile.

Jin Zhu didn't expect Teacher Zhou to ask so directly, but he didn't know whether to admit or deny it for a while.

"Teacher, how did I get into the first class?" This question has been entangled with Jin Zhu for a month, and she also asked it directly.

Zhou Chuanying smiled when he saw that Jin Zhu didn't answer the rhetorical question, and then asked rhetorically: "Why did you buy such an expensive gift for Li Xiang?" As far as I know, your family is not wealthy? ”

"Thank you, thank you for saving my life, and the fact that he helped me a lot later, is really not worth much compared to his help to our family. But now that the teacher knows that this thing is for him, can you trouble the teacher with one thing, can this gift be given to him through you? ”

"Why is that?"

"I'm afraid he won't accept it, he knows what our family's conditions are."

"Yang Jinzhu, although I haven't been in contact with you for a long time, I think that your mind doesn't match your age, what the teacher means, you can give him things yourself, but at what age you should understand what to do, you are just in the first year of junior high school, and the road ahead is still very long, the teacher thinks that you will definitely not be trapped in this small Wutong Town, don't lose the big because of the small." Zhou Chuanying tactfully tapped the golden beads a few words.

He really didn't want to ruin two such promising students because of early love.

"Teacher, I understand, don't worry, I won't." After Jin Zhu finished speaking, he put these tools into the box in an orderly manner, and went out with the box.

Zhou Chuanying looked at Jin Zhu's back from behind, and became suspicious, is this child really only twelve years old?

PS: I have something to do when I go out today, so I don't have to wait, so I sent it out first.
