Chapter 43: The Mask of Life

"You've been doing well these days, I'll give you an extra egg!"

"Oh......"

"What's wrong?"

"It's okay, you've worked hard!"

If I let my mother know that I failed the exam, plus I got a zero score in the essay, will there be no eggs......

After eating, I quickly packed my things and prepared to go out, feeling like a deserter, but I'm afraid that in my mother's eyes, I was in a hurry to go to school to study.

Alas, this morning, it seems to be a little colder again.

"Morning."

“……”

"What? I'll say hello to you! ”

"Oh, morning, I'm really not used to it."

"Really?"

Since Lan Yuxuan transferred to our school, the two of us rarely greet each other when we meet in the morning, well, strictly speaking, we rarely greet each other normally.

"Actually, your poems are quite well written."

“……”

"What's wrong again?"

"You...... Are you laughing at me? ”

"Of course not, I really think it's good, let's change Tang Bohu's poem."

"Do you still know Tang Bohu?"

"Tang Yin, who doesn't know, I still like him, but the name is a bit weird."

"You...... What do you like about him? ”

"Poetry, something."

"Oh......"

"You're a."

"Well, you've been so fierce for a long time, I don't feel unaccustomed to it."

"You're so annoying!"

In fact, I also like Tang Bohu very much, I like it very much, although he is poor, but he is uninhibited! Huh? It seems that something is wrong, forget it, since I have grown into this dignity, I don't need to have the heart to be a waste, and I can make my dream come true if I am not careful......

There are advantages to being close to the school, for example, the time of embarrassment is not so long.

"Yangzi, don't go back, I got you a broom."

"Are you a bit human, let me sweep the floor with my schoolbag, big brother?"

"Nonsense, who asked you to come so late, it wouldn't be bad if you didn't let you frustrate the dustpan and take out the garbage."

I looked at Lan Yuxuan aggrievedly, and wanted her to say something for me, even if it was to help me take my schoolbag, but she just smiled slightly, the kind that meant it, and then walked away without looking back.

"It's not righteous! It's extra to carry a school bag! ”

"Hurry up, class will be in a moment."

"Urgently, you, by the way, what about Haitao?"

"I said I stayed up late yesterday and slept in the class."

"Damn, it's not righteous, it's better for me to pretend to be my brother."

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up, class will be in a while."

"You repeat the machine."

"You have a clean mouth."

“……”

Everyone who passes by can't help but glance at me, this teenager sweeping the floor with a schoolbag on his back is really a source of happiness for all the teachers and students in the school......

When I returned to the classroom, I just rang the class bell, under Xiao Zhou's gaze, I put the broom in a hurry, and when I was walking back, I suddenly felt very quiet, quiet and a little cautious, and then I thought that Xiao Zhou might be waiting for me to sit down before starting class, so I quickly ran back and scared the classmates next to me.

"I thought you didn't know about class."

Hearing Xiao Zhou's count, I silently lowered my head.

"Do you know how long you've been delaying everyone by yourself?"

"Teacher, I was wrong."

I thought to myself, Lao Mao didn't do it very fast, it's just that I put it in the end, those sluts didn't put the brooms well, I have to put them in place? Just me? Besides, what are you doing now? Don't you know what about classes? Do you know how many minutes I have been delayed by the number of class hours? But don't make it up, I've forgiven you!

"In this lesson, let's talk about reading comprehension. Many students don't even know the basic writing method, in fact, it's the same as the 'solution' in mathematics, there is a fixed form, I say this again, it's the third year of junior high school, and I don't bother to repeat so much. ”

Balabala, a class passed quickly, and the course of the third year of junior high school seems to consolidate what I learned in the first and second years of junior high school, so it is good that I can review the lessons that I slept in again.

Looking at Xiao Zhou's performance, it seems that the festival between us has disappeared, but I can't be happy, as long as I am in class, I can't be happy!

There may be another reason, that is, discovering my state aroused Lan Yuxuan's strong curiosity, she always looked at me when she had nothing to do, as if she had a look less.

After school, I didn't frolic with my brothers. It's not entirely true to say it's pretending, because I found that when I washed my hands and looked up in the mirror, I still didn't have a smile on my face.

I've heard that life is like a mirror, if you smile at it, it will be good to you.

So, I tried to raise the corners of my mouth and squeeze out a smile that was not decent, but I found that the embarrassment that responded to me was so clear, there was not even a trace of impurities.

I was afraid that life would continue to trouble me, so I grinned wide, revealing white teeth and gums that might be bleeding a little.

"Well?"

Gu Shang's voice was very sudden, and it scared me, but I reacted fairly quickly, and once again made the action just now, and then said, "I seem to be stuffed with my teeth." ”

"You stuffed your teeth before you ate it?"

"What's the matter, it's been a morning, can't you?"

Masks are transparent to your loved ones, or those who are particularly familiar with you, so I don't have to act like I'm going to die, and I won't stay when it's time to eat.

What about going back to school? The brothers will think I'm sick, but Lan Yuxuan is still easier to deceive, after looking at me from time to time in the morning, Lan Yuxuan seems to be more active in the afternoon.

"Why are you so depressed?"

"What's wrong with me?"

"It's fine."

Damn, you still rob me of my lines!

After school in the afternoon, the teachers showed compassion and did not delay the class or take up our time, and I suspect that it was my bright smile at noon that played a role.

"Hey, do you know how to play ingots?"

"What?"

"Yuanbao, you boys should all love to play, do you dare to play with me?"

The first time I found out that there were girls who would play the game of "ingots", when I was a child and the children in the neighborhood, as long as the young lady in the front yard came over, we had to change to jump bands, so that every time I saw girls jumping bands, I was very disdainful, I felt that they were simply weak! Fortunately, I suppressed the urge to get involved every time, otherwise how could so many brothers be willing to play with me......

"I can play until I can play, but forget it, I still have to be on duty."

"Don't be cowardly!"

"Oh my temper!" Very few girls dare to compete with me like that. "After we finish our duty, we can't go out to play, or the students downstairs should have opinions."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you."

"There's a newspaper in my desk, you fold it first, tear up my notebook if it's not enough, but don't touch my comic books." By the way, do you stack? Why don't my brother teach you how to fold first? ”

"You can pull it down, I'm much better than you!"

"Yo Yo Yo, Haitao, let's go outside to shoot ingots after we finish our duty."

"Okay, what do you say if you win?"

"Hmm...... Still soda? ”

"It's a little cold, otherwise, whoever wins, whoever plays the game will have more lives in the future, how about it?"

"Deal!"

Lan Yuxuan also seemed to be very interested in "gambling", and when she heard that we had a lottery, she immediately asked, "What about me?" ”

I thought for a moment and responded, "You can do whatever you want." ”

Lan Yuxuan smiled and said, "Deal!" ”
