Chapter 005: Katsuo drops out
Shengnan and Shengyang are in the same class, and the class casts strange eyes on this pair of brothers, a high-minded stammering fool, a dwarf mouse one-eyed dragon, and they find all kinds of reasons to bully them. In the face of ridicule, Katsuo felt that he had nothing to do with him, fell asleep in class, woke up after class, and patted his chest stupidly to promise to protect him.
He can help him beat away the bad guys who bully him, but no one can get rid of the psychological shadow for him. Grandpa said that he was lucky to have one eye to see the world clearly, but he didn't expect to be teased by so many white eyes, and his nice words turned out to be deceitful, and he could always feel all kinds of claws stretching out to him mercilessly, saying that he was a monster, a dwarf, and a fool...... Personality begins to become more and more inferior.
Fortunately, there is finally one ability to alleviate his inferiority complex, that is, the words taught by the teacher, many of which he knows, and he can calculate the arithmetic quickly, and he is often praised in the class. Grandpa was right about this, he said that when he encountered setbacks, he thought about his own differences, in addition to literacy and arithmetic, he would also treat rabbits, and maybe others would not. But don't show off, just take every step obediently.
After the first semester exam, Shengyang had 100 in both subjects, but Shengnan only scored a few points, not only did his classmates make fun of Shengnan, but when he went home, his uncle also made him kneel and not allow him to eat. Shengyang secretly handed him steamed buns, Shengli ran over to make a small report to the uncle, the uncle looked at her, and began to sue at such a young age, and he will have it in the future.
Uncle taught Shengnan a lesson, and Shengnan said that he was fifteen years old and could work for the family, and if he didn't want to study, he would let Shengyang study, and he had good grades. Later, he worked to earn money for Shengyang and Shengli to study. Shengyang said that he was afraid of being bullied, and his brother didn't read him anymore, so Shengnan had to follow along.
Shengyang was promoted to the second grade, and Shengnan was still in the first grade; Shengyang is in the third grade, and Shengnan is still in the first grade; Until Shengyang was in the fourth grade, Shengnan, who was still in the first grade, really didn't want to study. Katsuo really can't read it, and he wants to sleep when he gets dizzy when he sees the book.
After school that day, Shengyang was bullied by several older children, not only scolding him for being a one-eyed dragon, but also making fun of his mother as a deaf and mute person and a cripple in the family. Shengyang and Shengnan fought five or six big children, from the hillside to the bottom of the mountain, Shengnan tried his best to protect Shengyang, and finally he caught a thick stick and hit each of them several times, and the children broke up, saying that they would not let them go.
Katsuo went home and was beaten and scolded by his father again, asking why he was so uncompetitive, and he could only silently shed tears. In my memory, because of my stuttering, I didn't dare to speak loudly, and I didn't even dare to cry loudly. Parents of children who lost the fight came running to find trouble. Shengyang explained to the uncle that those children bullied his brothers first, and then bullied more and less. When the uncle heard this, he was so angry that he immediately took a broom and drove several people out of the house, which was really too deceitful.
Looking back at Katsuo, this guy can't read, he is the number one in fighting, but he doesn't know that the severity is also troublesome, let him wipe away his tears and go to the kitchen to eat, some destined things can't be changed, just let it be. By the time Shengyang was in the fifth grade, Shengnan was working as a farmer at home. He told Shengyang that if anyone bullied him, he shouted at Shanliang and immediately took a hoe to clean them up.
Shengyang listened to the warmth, and he was used to the cold words of his classmates since he was a child, but fortunately he had his protection. Since he is now a graduate, no one bullies him anymore, so he should repay his family with a good score in the exam. In contrast, he was lucky, none of the five children of Aunt Wang's family had ever studied, the eldest one earned a share of work, and the younger one herded cattle and sheep, running all day long in the mountains and drilling in the woods.
Just when Shengyang graduated from elementary school, the uncle was sick, with lung disease, and coughed all day long. Money is needed to see a doctor, and the uncle is the main force in the family. Shengyang said that he stopped studying and wanted to learn medicine and cooking from his grandfather. The teachers at the school felt sorry for him and came to him several times, but they all firmly refused.
Sheng Li said that she was going to study, and the eldest mother said that it was useless for girls to study, and besides, there was no money at home. Shengli cried and lost her temper, throwing dishes and chopsticks, and smashing things. Before, when her grandfather came to the house, he taught her to recite ancient poems, and she could remember them all, saying that she was the material for reading and must read. And every time Zhou Qian comes to the courtyard and tells a story, she can also remember that if she wants to know more, she must go to study. The eldest lady was about to hit her, but she hid behind Katsuo. Shengnan originally pinned his hopes for reading on Shengyang, but now Shengyang has given up, so he can only look at this sister's reading luck again.
He begged his parents to agree to let Shengli go to school, his father's cough became worse and worse, he thought about it, this Shengli has been very fierce since he was a child, and he was eighty years old (referring to the annoying person), and almost the entire team was offended. It's not to climb other people's trees to pick fruits or to bully other people's children to cry and call their mothers, it's better to put them in school and let Mr. teach, saying that they may not get better in the future. So he agreed, Shengyang gave the schoolbag to Shengli, but she didn't expect her to want it, saying that she wanted to buy a new one, the eldest mother was very angry, and Zheng's father also blamed Shengli for being ignorant, but she insisted on a new schoolbag.
At this time, Qin's mother took out the schoolbag modified with her own clothes and handed it to her, and deliberately showed off a few big flowers, Shengli couldn't put it down when she saw it, this was better than the one bought on the street. hugged Qin's mother and took a bite, her schoolbag must be the most dazzling. The eldest lady didn't expect the deaf to have this ability, it is estimated that she has been secretly showing off for a long time, and this little ancestor will be handed over to the school for discipline in the future.
Katsuo said that he would pick up Shengli from school every day in the future, and he was afraid that someone would bully her. The eldest mother said that she didn't bully others and considered others lucky, so she asked Katsuo to help at home, and he had to obey. Although I don't study anymore, I still miss the days at school, in addition to seeing a lot of classmates at school, the streets are also bustling every day.
Shengyang followed his grandfather to learn medical skills, and often brought back the medicine prescribed by his grandfather to his uncle for treatment, and his condition was slowly relieved. Sheng Li is the number one bully in the class, and no one in the male and female classmates dares to provoke her, but her academic performance is in the upper middle class.
Once, a classmate who went home with her made fun of her, saying that the two useless brothers would definitely not be able to marry a daughter-in-law, and they had picked her up to be a daughter-in-law at the beginning. Shengli ran to the cedar tree, tore off a branch, and desperately brushed her classmate's face, who cried in pain and begged for mercy. The classmate was defeated, and a lot of blood was stabbed in her hand, and she was determined to become stronger.
Shengyang was hardly at home, and Shengnan became her playmate, often running on her back and lying on the ground for her to ride as a horse. Katsuo also made a slingshot for her, saying that if there was a bad guy bullying her, he would hit the other party's ass with the slingshot. Shengli obediently practiced slingshots, often beating birds in the trees everywhere. She loves to use force, and she uses a bamboo stick to compare with him, and she beats her bitterly every time. The boy likes to shoot darts at the wall, she can shoot into the main hall painting from the gate, the characters on the New Year's painting are pierced with holes, and the lady is so angry that she will never hang the middle hall painting again.
The children in the courtyard who were about her age were taken under her command, calling her the eldest, and the older children were busy earning a living. For example, in Aunt Wang's house, as the income of several older children gradually improved, three straw beds were laid in the attic, each bed had two quilts, and the clothes were changed several times, and the stomach could often be filled.
