Chapter 20: Mother's Day Gifts
On Sunday morning, Liao Tian got up early in the morning and quickly got dressed.
He walked gently to his parents' bedroom in the house, and Liao Tian said to his mother who had just gotten up: "Mom, today is Mother's Day, and I will prepare a delicious meal for you at noon."
"Child, now the living conditions are good, I eat delicious food every day, and every day is like a festival. You don't need to cook, you just remember! A good score in the high school entrance examination is the biggest reward for me. ”
At the same time, this morning, Mu Yan packed her schoolbag, walked out of the room, and saw a piece of paper on the table in the living room: "Yanyan, Mom and Dad are busy today and don't have time to cook for you, so you can get some food yourself, and we'll go home later." ”
Mu Yan thought about it and felt that she should do something special today, and she thought of her grandmother's fried poached eggs. So, Mu Yan took out a few eggs from the cupboard and carefully turned on the fire.
For Mu Yan, who doesn't enter the kitchen, her hands and feet will naturally be clumsy at this time, but she has seen the whole process of her grandmother making fried poached eggs, and she is also somewhat sure......
Mu Yan looked at her watch, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon at this time, and she was a little anxious, knowing that as a student, the most feared thing was to be late.
But the parents still didn't come back.
After waiting for a while, the door opened: "Yanyan, have you eaten?" The parents walked in, and Yan's mother was afraid that Mu Yan would not be able to cook, so she asked as soon as she entered the door.
"Oh, I ate it."
Mu Yan brought out the poached eggs from the kitchen: "Mom and Dad, sit down." ”
At this time, Yan's father and mother were foggy, and they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Mu Yan's gourd.
"Today is Mother's Day, and I've fried a few poached eggs for you to eat." Saying that, Mu Yan put the poached egg in front of her parents.
Yan's father and mother were stunned for a few seconds.
Then Yan's mother said distressedly: "This child, you know that today is Mother's Day, where is the use of this?" Eat it yourself. When we want to eat, we will make it ourselves. ”
Mu Yan suddenly felt a burst of sadness, and then thought of the tiredness of her parents in the past, tears swirled in her eyes, she hurriedly went into the kitchen to wipe away her tears, for fear that her parents would see it.
Mu Yan took another bite of food, calmed down, and then walked out of the kitchen and said to her parents: "Parents, you can eat, this is my own cooking, it's different." ”
Yan's mother glanced at Yan's father and said, "The child is his father, then let's eat." ”
"Well, the eggs made by the girl are delicious." Father Yan said while eating.
"The child usually doesn't go to the kitchen, and the cooking tastes good." Yan's mother also continued.
Seeing that her parents finished eating the eggs, Mu Yan picked up her schoolbag and said, "Then I'll go to school." After saying that, Mu Yan ran out.
Along the way, Mu Yan's mood was a little complicated, and she was also a little excited, thinking of her parents' hard work, her eyes were full of tears.
When she arrived at school, Mu Yan's mood still couldn't calm down. I sat there for a long time.
In the afternoon, Zhu Zilong was also much quieter, and sometimes he couldn't help but stop writing and talk to others. will also sneak a few glances at the abnormal Mu Yan.
"Zhu Zilong, what day is today?" Mu Yan pretended to ask.
Zhu Zilong glanced at Mu Yan and asked rhetorically, "What day will it be today?" ”
Mu Yan suddenly had a sense of testing Zhu Zilong, and after a while, Mu Yan asked Zhu Zilong again: "What day is today?" ”
Liao Tian, who was sitting in the front row, heard the conversation between the two of them, turned around and said, "Today is Mother's Day." ”
Mu Yan said to Liao Tian with some reproach: "I'm asking Zhu Zilong, but he hasn't answered yet." ”
————————
"Tonight's self-study, you can memorize "Breaking through the High School Entrance Examination" from the first page, and you must not miss a word or a single sound." Teacher Luo suddenly walked in and said.
As soon as the words fell, the sound of reading in the classroom immediately started, and when Mu Yan was investing, Zhu Zilong turned his head and read to Mu Yan: "On the white fishing woods and rivers, I am used to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze." ”
Mu Yan knew that Zhu Zilong wanted her to catch the next sentence, and they often recited it to each other like this. Mu Yan confidently glanced at Zhu Zilong and said, "A pot of turbid wine is happy to meet, and many things in ancient and modern times are all laughed and discussed." ”
Zhu Zilong hurriedly added: "I have no intention of fighting for spring, and I am jealous." ”
"Scattered into mud and dust, only fragrant."
Zhu Zilong saw that he was not stumped, and Mu Yan added: "The old time and moon in the east of Huaishui." ”
"Late at night, I came over the women's wall."
Zhu Zilong's eyes were straight: "You are amazing!" ”
Mu Yan was most afraid of others praising her, so she hurriedly said: "Don't praise me, if you praise it, it won't work." ”
"Then you can memorize "Jiangnan Travel".
"Oops, I forgot the poem of the first year of junior high school, so don't mention it."
"Ten thousand ravines have a sound and a night." Zhu Zilong reminded.
"I said, I can't carry it." Mu Yan inadvertently asked Zhu Zilong again: "What day is today?" ”
As soon as the words came out, Mu Yan looked at Zhu Zilong with some embarrassment, and she couldn't think of why she asked like this.
Zhu Zilong looked at Mu Yan with his eyes for a second, and said with a smile: "Do you think I don't know what day it is?" So what did you do for them? ”
Mu Yan didn't know what to say for a while. quickly changed the subject: "Let's read." ”
Without reading the last two sentences, Zhu Zilong asked Mu Yan, "How many of your best friends are there?" ”
Mu Yan felt that the question he asked was really difficult to answer, and she didn't know why he asked like this. also learned from him to ask rhetorically: "What kind of person is a good friend?" ”
"Just say how many you have." Zhu Zilong didn't answer Mu Yan either.
Mu Yan really didn't know how to answer for a while, and said with some grievances: "We are far away, I don't know what's going on, as soon as you talk, I can't help myself talking to you, but every time I want to talk to you, you can still put your mind on the book." ”
"When did I do that, for example."
Mu Yan looked at Zhu Zilong's expectant eyes and said, "Forget it, let's study hard, the high school entrance examination is about to begin." ”
"And did your good friend have two slaps?" Zhu Zilong still asked without giving up.
Mu Yan couldn't dodge his question and said, "No, then there are more than ten of your bosom friends?" ”
Zhu Zilong shook his head and said, "No." ”
"I think if a person has more than ten close friends, there must be something wrong with that person." Mu Yan suddenly wanted to take the squad leader Shen Lin as an example, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was not necessary.
"No, I think that's introversion." Zhu Zilong retorted.
Mu Yan suddenly realized that Zhu Zilong seemed to be testing herself by saying so much, so she said simply: "If you add those buddies of mine, there are more than ten." “
Zhu Zilong hurriedly took over and said, "No, it's a girl." ”
Mu Yan argued: "It's buddy." ”
"No, it's a." Zhu Zilong said resolutely.
Mu Yan couldn't argue, so she said what she thought was her buddy: "When I was in elementary school, I would invite a group of children to play football in front of the school's playground every weekend!" ”
"Really?"
"We're a team of boys and a team of girls, playing against each other."
"That's great! So where is the football goal? ”
"We make the goal ourselves, just draw a line." The more Mu Yan spoke, the more energetic she became, and the more Zhu Zilong listened, the more fascinated she became.
"And how far can you dribble the ball?" Zhu Zilong asked.
"Just hold the ball, what's the use of kicking far?"
Mu Yan continued: "We learned the rules of playing football from cartoons at that time, and we always watched football kids at that time, and we learned from there.
Zhu Zilong's eyes lit up when he heard this: "I used to watch football kids, and that ......"
Without waiting for Zhu Zilong to finish speaking, Mu Yan hurriedly added: "Slam Dunk." ”
Zhu Zilong suddenly had a feeling of meeting a bosom friend: "Yes, yes, yes!" The so-called hero is a hero, that's what it tastes like. ”
Mu Yan didn't say anything anymore at this time.
Zhu Zilong was still unsatisfied: "Then does that team still exist now?" ”
Mu Yan said with a sad look in her eyes: "Some of them went out of school to make money, and some of them upgraded. ”
Zhu Zilong listened, and there was a trace of regret in his eyes.
Mu Yan continued: "Now those have become eternal memories. ”
Mu Yan paused and asked Zhu Zilong, "How did you spend your childhood?" ”
Zhu Zilong's childhood is naturally not as wonderful as Mu Yan's, and after listening to Mu Yan's story, he can't wait to return to his childhood.
He said regretfully: "I spent my childhood in a remote mountain village. ”
"Isn't that a lot of friends?"
"No, I'm the only one in our whole village."
"No, there are a lot of children in our village! At night, we all get together and play many games. ”
"In my childhood memories, I only remember climbing a tree and falling off it, and my nosebleed almost frightened my parents."
Mu Yan had seen the appearance of a little friend who fell from a tree, and that kind of frightening scene had become an interesting memory at this time, which made Mu Yan couldn't help laughing.
She suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "It is written on the blackboard that there are still 37 days to take the high school entrance examination, so let's hurry up and study." I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with you. “
"Mu Yan, where is your goal?" Zhu Zilong asked.
Mu Yan was silent, she knew that Zhu Zilong's goal was definitely the best key high school, but she knew that her own strength was difficult. She had to be silent.
I saw Zhu Zilong continue: "Actually, I just want to take the scores of key high schools, and then enter an ordinary high school, so that I can enter the top class."
"Others say that entering a key high school is equivalent to stepping into the gate of a university with half a foot." Mu Yan said.
"That's fake, key high schools, and there are many people who haven't been admitted. However, I have such a past, if I go to a regular high school, will anyone gossip. Zhu Zilong was also silent.
Mu Yan knew what Zhu Zilong was talking about, he had always been excellent, if he just entered an ordinary high school, would he disappoint his family.
Mu Yan also has worries in this regard, she is worried that she will not be able to do well in the exam, she will not be able to face her family, and she is afraid that the people around her will gossip.
Zhu Zilong's worries are also her worries.
