Chapter 11: The Topic Between Father and Son
On the way home, Ai's mother talked to Lu's mother as usual.
Ai Xuexue saw a little clue, his eyes flicked to Lu Tao, Lu Tao also shook his head for a while, he felt that his mother was also abnormal.
"Goodbye study." Lu's mother greeted Ai Xuexue.
"Goodbye, little Tao'er." Ai's mother greeted Lu Tao.
This is not a simple matter, this is the result of the last eye contact between Ai Xuexue and Lu Tao.
When I got home, Ai's father was busy in the kitchen, and it could be seen that Ai's father was in a very good mood, and he rarely cooked, and he actually cooked by himself today.
Ai Xiaomei came back with Ai's father this week, and she was nesting in the bedroom to brush up on the questions.
"I'll go to do my homework first, and call me when I'm ready." Ai Xuexue took the opportunity to slip away, although he didn't bring his homework back, but he remembered that the head teacher Ye Rong introduced a chemistry game developed by the school in chemistry class, and asked the students to play it.
Although the game is quite childish and more boring than Tetris, it has become a lifesaver for Ai's learning at the moment.
"What's wrong? Look at you upset. Ai's father came out of the kitchen, different from Ai's mother's expressionless face, Ai's father's smiling eyes were invisible.
Ai's father has a single eyelid, and Ai's mother has a double eyelid. So Ai Xiaomei has double eyelids, and Ai Xuexue has single eyelids, that is, small eyes.
"Not to mention, he actually scored 69 points in the English test. Forget this, after all, I am mentally prepared, the key is that Ai Xue He didn't even fill in the answer sheet for the multiple-choice questions, when will his so-so character be changed. Ai's mother vomited bitterness.
"So miserable? Where is there no place to be praised? "Ai's father understands how miserable the English score of 69 is, and Ai Xiaomei's English is above 13.
"Yes, math and physics are the first in the grade, but they don't have to be used, and English is a big score difference."
"It's okay, it's a big deal to find him a make-up class during the summer vacation." Ai's father was very open-minded, after all, Ai's learning of English gave him some immunity.
"Why not winter break?" Ai's mother was puzzled.
Ai's father said confidently: "I still need this stinky boy to tutor his sister in math during the winter vacation." Of course, there's no need to worry now, after all, it's only a freshman in high school, and it's not good to put so much pressure on him now. ”
Ai Xuexue didn't know the tragic fate of his winter and summer vacations, and at this moment he was enraged by the third level of the chemistry game.
This game is very boring to play, but after all, it has some connection with chemistry knowledge, so Ai learning is bound to clear the level.
The third level is to connect the names and symbols of the elements within the specified time, which is not easy, mainly because the time is limited, and the position of each refresh is different, which requires eyesight and enough familiarity with the symbols of chemical elements.
"If I don't clear you today, I won't be surnamed Ai." Another round of success made Ai Xuexue firm in his determination.
There are a total of 39 levels in this game, until seven o'clock in the evening, Ai learning to play 18 levels, the more you need the knowledge points behind, which is a big challenge for Ai to learn who has not yet been contacted, he had to challenge the level before looking at the corresponding clearance cheats, the so-called clearance cheats are actually chemical equations, reactions between inorganic substances, the generation of gases and solids, and so on.
"Stinky boy, it's time to eat." Ai's mother shouted Ai to study in the living room.
Ai Xuexue, who was red-eyed, didn't hear Ai's mother's voice, he failed six times in the 21st level, and he was about to start his seventh challenge.
"Potassium permanganate, sodium hypochlorite, *** ......"
Ai Xuexue's hands began to tremble, and he had completed most of the equation level, and finally victory was in sight.
"What are you doing when you're eating?" Ai's mother opened the door, which directly affected Ai's learning ideas.
Looking at the screenshot of the failure, Ai Xuexue wailed: "Ah...... It's just a little bit. ”
"Worse, let's eat." Ai's mother's right to speak at home is supreme, and Ai can't learn to refute it.
It is rare for a family of four to get together once, and since Ai Xiaomei also went to junior high school, Ai's father has been swallowing clouds and fog on the balcony more often.
After eating in a hurry and washing the dishes in a hurry, Ai Xuexue rushed to the computer.
From half past seven to ten o'clock, Ai Xuexue hit level 37 as he wished, and there were still the last two levels.
"I'm ready to go to bed, go wash up." Ai's mother urged.
"Wait for me for a while, there are still the last two levels, I don't believe it today." Ai was very interested in learning, and he was very excited about the prospect of victory.
"Whatever you want." Ai's mother rarely compromised, mainly because she ran around all afternoon today, and went to square dance with her sisters in the evening, and Zhou Gong had a great desire to play chess.
Ai's father's biological clock is very regular, he goes to bed on time at ten o'clock in the morning and wakes up on time at half past six every morning, which is earlier than Ai in high school.
On Sunday, Ai's father rarely sent Ai to school.
In the car, Ai's father hesitated for a while and finally spoke: "Will you go back to Guizhou with me this year?" ”
Ai Xuexue didn't expect Ai's father to mention this topic, and he was stunned for a while.
Since he can remember, Ai Xuexue has never been to Guizhou, from childhood to adulthood, his grandmother and grandfather pulled him up, Ai's father's relatives he basically did not contact, the reason why he said basic, is because his aunt he still contacted, the eldest mother came to Chongqing with Zhang Dong, who graduated from junior high school, when Ai was in the sixth grade.
Ai's eldest mother lives in Yunnan, but his cousin, who is also the eldest mother's son, loves the barber industry, and after careful consideration, the eldest mother decides to send Zhang Dong to a barber school in Chongqing.
During that time, for the first time in his life, Ai Xuexue consciously came into contact with Ai's father's relatives.
"But I don't think there is much time this year, so how about you go back with me during the winter vacation of your sophomore year of high school?" Ai's father continued to speak, holding the steering wheel very hard, he quietly glanced at Ai Xuexue and said, "Your grandfather, I want to see you." ”
Ai Xuexue was silent for a while, then nodded, "Okay." ”
Ai's father mumbled, and didn't say anything more, and the car was very quiet for a while.
It takes more than 50 minutes to get to school by bus, and Ai's father drove Ai to study, and he still takes the Inner Ring Expressway, which takes about 20 minutes.
"By the way, your uncle and they are coming during this year's winter vacation, and your brother Siyuan and sister Siyu will also come, so let's help my father entertain them then." Ai's father said to Ai.
Ai Xuexue nodded, took out the fruit that Ai's mother bought for him from the trunk, said goodbye to Ai's father and walked to the north gate of the school.
Ai's father, who came by car, took the road from the north gate, which was spacious.
Looking at Ai Xue**'s figure, Ai's father lit a cigarette.
