chapter 2
Shu Jin's biological clock has been very stable, and she woke up at 6:30 the next day, she stretched a little on the bed, moved her muscles and bones, and washed up and went downstairs.
There was a smell of porridge wafting from the kitchen, it was the green vegetable and lean porridge cooked by my grandmother, but I didn't see her. Shu Jin turned to the small courtyard near the back door, and on a half-worn rattan chair sat a thin old man, still a little cool on a mid-May morning, wearing a thin sweater cardigan and a string of Buddhist beads on her bony wrist. Shu Jin got closer, only to see that her grandmother was wearing a pair of reading glasses, holding a copy of the Heart Sutra in her hand, and wherever her fingers went, her mouth was also reading in pieces, reading and reading, and suddenly stopped, until she was found.
"Xiaoxiao, get up! I don't get much sleep. The old man said with concern.
"Well, I can't sleep." She squatted down, looked up at her grandmother and whispered, "I don't know any word." β
"Grandma is old, you taught me before, and I forgot it after a long time." She pointed to the much-drawn word and sighed.
"Say 'pan', grandma recite it a few times, and I can't remember how much I teach you."
βpanοΌpan...β
While my grandmother was repeating it, she was also reading the words, "The heart is free of obstacles, there is no obstacles, there is no terror, far from the upside-down dream, Nirvana." "If you don't take it to heart, can you get by, can you get by? She asked herself.
"Xiaoxiao, I remember, the heart is free of obstacles, there is no obstacles, there is no terror, far from upside down dreams, nirvana." It's a bit slow to read, but it's a good word. It's really good for her to be self-taught without reading.
"Good reading" Shu Jin nodded, a little surprised to see that her grandmother was happy like a child when she heard her praise.
She didn't bother her grandmother anymore, and when she left, she seemed to hear the old man whispering in pieces: "Nan no Amitabha, bless my good granddaughter to go well in the college entrance examination and be admitted to a good university, Nan no Amitabha ......" Grandma is a devout Buddhist believer, this is her belief, she has been exposed to her grandmother since she was a child, but she does not say a word about it, people should always have faith, that is the sustenance of her soul. What about himself, Shu Jin stood in place and thought for a long time, probably the sentence "The pine tree will eventually decay for a thousand years, and the hibiscus flower will be proud of itself one day".
The leisurely time flies quickly, and there is a small episode when Shu Geun is having lunch with her grandmother.
The second daughter-in-law, Ye Yun, pushed the door in, put 100 yuan on the table, and said to the old man: "This month's living expenses."
After seeing the abundant seafood and Shu Jin on the table, the face with heavy makeup became even more ugly, and said sarcastically to the old man: "This granddaughter is different when she comes back, she is delicious and drunk, and she is usually reluctant to even buy some meat. β
After a pause, he glanced at Shu Jin with a bad look, and said, "I don't know, I think it's my granddaughter!" None of my own grandchildren have this treatment. β
Shu Jin lowered her head, ate by herself, and occasionally put some food into her grandmother's bowl, while the grandmother beside her just frowned, didn't say anything, put away the 100 on the table, and held it a little tight in her hand.
"Why, why didn't the old lady speak? Is it true that Shu Jin's mother has earned a lot in recent years, and she has also given you a lot, and she doesn't take us seriously? Ye Yun was so angry, what attitude does this old lady have, she won't let out a fart for a long time.
The old man stood up, went to the kitchen to get a pair of chopsticks, put them in front of Ye Yun's table, and said in a hoarse voice: "The chopsticks are here, the meal is gone, if you want to eat, just sit and eat, and I won't let you eat." β
"Who is still rare." Throwing down this sentence, Ye Yun left angrily.
The good atmosphere was destroyed, and both of them lost any appetite, and the old man thought for a long time and said, "Xiaoxiao." β
"Hmm"
"Has your mother given you living expenses lately? If not, grandma will give it to you first. β
"Yes, she gives it every month." Shu Jin lowered her head and was peeling shrimp.
"Is it enough?" The old man asked uneasily.
"Enough"
"It's not enough to tell me, grandma has money herself."
"Okay" Shu Jin replied softly, she has enough money, she can save a little and even have leftover, she won't ask her grandmother, that's her pension, she can't ask for it, and she can't trouble her grandmother anymore.
Before returning to school in the afternoon, my grandmother asked her to bring a large bag of bread and milk, and told her: "If you don't have time to eat, eat these pads first, and eat some when you are hungry, so as not to get tired." If you're out there, I'll be at ease. β
"Okay, goodbye grandma, you have to be well at home. Don't send me anymore. Shu Jin shook her grandmother's hand and left. When she turned the corner, she turned to look, and her grandmother's thin body was still standing in the doorway, watching her leave.
She somehow remembered Long Yingtai's "Eye Delivery" that she had watched before - I slowly and slowly learned that the so-called father-daughter-mother-son game just means that your fate with him is to constantly watch his back drift away in this life and this life. You stand at this end of the path, watching him fade away at the bend of the path, and he silently tells you with his back: don't chase.
This applies to her and her grandmother.
There are not many direct trains from Ningchuan Town to Lin'an City, three classes a day, the first bus is 8:00, the second bus is 11:00, Shu Jin is the last bus at 15:00, the journey is 1 hour and 20 minutes, so she found a single seat by the window, took out her mobile phone, connected the headphones, ordered soothing pure music, held her head and looked at the scenery flashing outside the window, and gradually became sleepy.
......
"How can this question be done wrong?" The soft female voice sounded suspiciously, put a red cross on the math three-model paper, and continued to look down, "This is also wrong", the young woman's thin eyebrows were about to wrinkle together, she scratched her hair irritably, and continued to change patiently.
"Ahh
"Knock knock" knocked on the door twice, the door was pushed open, and a tall and straight man stood at the door, his face was a little difficult to see against the light, and he only heard a deep voice: "Lu Yuxuan, what are you doing?" β
"Uh, brother, I was just venting my emotions and disturbed you?" Lu Yuxuan straightened the hair that was grabbed by herself into a chicken nest, and smiled a little weakly.
"Who messed with you?" The voice came from far and near, and it turned out that his brother had walked in front of her. This face, as a younger sister, she can't help but be a nymphomaniac, they are all the same parents, why is his brother born so well, she is much inferior. Even her IQ is higher than her, a college math professor and a high school math teacher, it's really a difference.
"No, I'll change the test paper!" She grabbed it with all her might, and tore through the scroll underneath, and when she saw a crack in the thin paper, the corners of her eyes jumped, and she covered her hand to try to cover up her sin.
Lu Zhaoyu looked at her confused appearance, frowned, and reached over with the hand in his pocket and took away the test paper that had been destroyed by her. At a glance, there are a lot of red crosses, and the handwriting is beautiful, but this question is not generally bad, half-understood, unclear, and sloppy.
For this mathematics three-model paper, Professor Lu summed it up in three words, "poor level". Flipped to the front and glanced at the name "Shu Jin", it was a girl.
He handed the paper back and said nonchalantly, "You student, you can't do math."
"Shu Jin, this student, is very good in other subjects, but she is poor in mathematics, and every time she passes more points, she can't go up, and I'm also worried, why is the little girl who works so hard stuck in mathematics. I'll have to talk to her again tonight. β
"What do you like about this student?" Lu Zhaoyu looked at his sister's worried appearance for the student, and he had the demeanor of a good teacher.
"I've only been in charge of this class for more than a semester, and it stands to reason that every teacher is impressed by the best and worst math students in the class, and Shu Jin's math is not the worst in the class, but she just pays more attention to her. Every time I see her sitting by the window and watching me engrossed in class, I feel very moved, I feel a sense of respect, and I have more passion for the lecture. Lu Yuxuan said with a smile, every sentence from the bottom of her heart.
"Then you can help this student." After hearing this, Lu Zhaoyu said casually, and just as he was about to leave, he asked again: "I'm going back to Linda University, aren't you going to No. 1 Middle School to see you off?" β
"Okay, brother, then you wait for me a while." She began to clean up the exam papers on the table.
"I'll wait for you downstairs." After Lu Zhaoyu finished speaking, he turned around and left.
After Lu Zhaoyu put down Lu Yuxuan at the gate of Linnan No. 1 Middle School, he was about to drive away, when he suddenly saw a petite shadow swaying in front of the car, and her short hair was tilted back due to the wind, revealing a full forehead and a straight nose bridge.
Lu Zhaoyu got out of the car, walked to the place where the girl had just passed, and picked up her small purse. Seeing that her figure had disappeared, he held it in his hand and turned to get into the car.
I opened my wallet and looked at it, an ID card, a bank card, and some bits and pieces of cash. He took out the ID card, the girl's appearance is really comfortable, the facial features are small, the skin is fair, except for the eyes, they are big but have no look, and they don't have the agility that a girl at this age should have.
He turned his gaze to the left, the name column was quite familiar, but it was not the girl he had just heard Lu Yuxuan talk about.
"Shu Jin" he looked at the girl in the photo and spit out her name in a deep voice, "what a coincidence."
Put the ID card back in place, and after closing the wallet, he dialed Lu Yuxuan's phone and said straight to the point: "I picked up your student Shu Jin's wallet, you told her to go to the transmission room to pick it up, and I handed it over to the security guard." β
Lu Yuxuan was still curious about why his brother called her suddenly, but after hearing what he said, she became even more curious, and she asked, "How did you pick up her wallet?" β
Lu Zhaoyu frowned and said lightly: "It's just an accident." Okay, I still have something to do, hang up first. β
Without waiting for Lu Yuxuan's reply, he had already hung up the phone, handed over his wallet to the security guard in the communication room, and drove away.
"Really, just hang it, it's neat, and it doesn't drag the mud and water." After Lu Yuxuan finished muttering, she continued to finish the remaining papers in the office. I plan to go over early to talk about this to Shu Jin.
When Shu Jin returned to the dormitory to pack up her things and change into her school uniform, she suddenly found that her wallet was missing. She pursed her lips, thinking back to where she had lost it, and when she got out of the car, she still had a heavy feeling in her pocket, indicating that the wallet should have fallen on the way back when she got out of the car.
There is nothing important in it, just a few dozen yuan of change, a bank card, the key is the ID card, she is about to take the college entrance examination, and it is not very convenient to re-do it.
