This story takes place in the high school years of Zhang Siyuan and Wang Zhen. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Siyuan crept past the kitchen door, his schoolbag was held around his waist, and he tried to turn sideways not to let the things in his arms be discovered.

"Siyuan - when did you come back? Why don't you tell me when you get home? ”

Zhang Siyuan's face wrinkled suddenly, and his expression became very panicked: "Ouch, Mom, can you wake up before you speak loudly next time, if you frighten your only son, how can you be honored in the future?" ”

There was a burst of laughter from the kitchen, and a woman with an apron and hair tied up high stepped out. Zhang Siyuan was shocked, and hurriedly moved the schoolbag a few inches to the right, pretending to have a not very natural smile on his face, his heart suddenly jumped, and he grabbed the words: "The teacher left a lot of homework today, I'll go back and write it first." ”

Zhang's mother smiled: "It's the first time I've seen you doing your homework in such a hurry, let's go." Her afterglow suddenly caught a glimpse of Zhang Siyuan's schoolbag, the smile on her face instantly froze, her face changed suddenly, and she said in a deep voice, "What is in your schoolbag, why are you so bulging?" ”

Zhang Siyuan's heart sank, and he quickened his pace and walked towards his bedroom, and said vaguely: "It's nothing, I just brought a few more exercise books home today." ”

Zhang's mother rushed behind him with an arrow step, grabbed the strap of the schoolbag and pulled it out of Zhang Siyuan's arms, threw it on the table angrily, and scolded while unzipping it: "Your exercise book is square and bulging?" Even if you take a thousand exercise books home with your school bag, you won't be like this, and I know you're going to the store to buy shoes again today. ”

She aggressively took out a large shoebox from her schoolbag and threw it on the table, and the bright Nike logo lay quietly on the lid. Zhang Siyuan lowered his head, knowing that it was useless to say anything at this time, so he stood silently aside with his hands down.

Zhang's mother's face turned blue, her eyebrows twisted into a pimple, and her eyes narrowed: "Zhang Siyuan, look at you, you know blind buying all day long, don't you know how hard it is for us to make money and go to work every day?" In order to save money, your father was reluctant to eat a boxed lunch outside, and he was hungry until two or three o'clock in the afternoon before coming back to cook instant noodles by himself. How many pairs of shoes are on our shoe rack, and how many of them are yours? ”

Zhang Siyuan was sprayed by her spittle, looking at the shoebox on the table, feeling a little guilty and a little sad. Zhang's mother snorted coldly: "If you can use the effort and spirit of buying shoes to study, wouldn't the top five in the class be yours long ago?" ”

A fire of annoyance suddenly rose in Zhang Siyuan's heart, grabbed the shoebox and schoolbag from the table, and walked towards the bedroom with his head down. Zhang's mother seemed to have discovered something again, and gasped, her voice was no different from the screams of the people on the roller coaster: "Wait, you come over here, what's going on with this 45-point math paper on the ground?!" ”

Zhang Siyuan chuckled in his heart, and cold sweat suddenly broke out. He did very poorly in this final exam, and the worst thing was mathematics, with a full score of 150, and he didn't even get a third...... This scroll was originally hidden in the mezzanine of the school bag, but I don't know what happened, it was brought out by the shoebox and fell to the ground.

Zhang Siyuan's heart was like ashes, and he knew that this time a harsh criticism must be indispensable, and he might have to be mixed doubles. He secretly turned his head and caught a glimpse of his mother holding the exam paper, her face was extremely ugly, she threw the paper on the table, and her voice trembled a little: "You will fend for yourself in the future, you like shoes so much, I think you should simply stop going to school and go to the mall to be a shopping guide." ”

The sad mood spread in Zhang Siyuan's chest, he sighed silently, slammed the bedroom door behind him, threw the schoolbag to the ground, and collapsed on the bed in a large shape.

At dinner, the faces of the family were not very good-looking, and the atmosphere at the table was very depressing. Zhang Siyuan absentmindedly scraped the rice grains in the bowl with a spoon, and suddenly heard his mother say coldly: "I have already contacted Mr. Cui, and the day after tomorrow you will go to the cram school he opened, and it will be up to you if you don't work hard." ”

Zhang Siyuan was shocked, and said in his heart, this is absolutely impossible, I also made an appointment with Wang Zhen to do a lot of things together this summer. Besides, cram school is just repeating what the teacher has said, and people who are good at math have not attended cram school much, isn't this a waste of money?

He was thinking about it when he felt someone slap him on the back. He raised his head in confusion, and his father said angrily: "Hurry up and make a statement to your mother, do you want to study hard?" ”

"Hey, Siyuan, are you going to climb the mountain the day after tomorrow?"

Zhang Siyuan scolded in annoyance, and said sullenly: "Climb the egg, do you think that everyone has more than 100 points in mathematics like you, and you don't need to go to any cram school." ”

Wang Zhen laughed proudly over there: "I was scolded by your mother." Alas, why didn't my mother scold me today, and praised me for my progress. ”

Zhang Siyuan scolded: "Get out." His tone became serious again: "Why don't you teach me math?" I really don't want to go to any broken cram school opened by Mr. Cui. ”

Mother Zhang quietly pushed open the door like a ghost and poked her head out: "What did you just say?" ”

Zhang Siyuan rode the car slowly and leisurely to the downstairs of a residential building, kicked up the car and sighed a little reluctantly, and muttered to the upper floor. He climbed up to the third floor, stopped in front of a blue-gray door, took a note from his pocket, wiped the sweat from his forehead and checked the door number, and knocked tentatively.

After three knocks, there was no sound in the door. Zhang Siyuan raised his hand and knocked a few more times, but there was still no response. He was a little puzzled, and said in his heart, could this Teacher Cui be at home? He unfolded the note again and double-checked: Building 10, Unit 5, Unit 301, that's right.

Zhang Siyuan snorted, leaned on the door frame to rest, and began to think endlessly in his mind. Just as he was thinking back to the most terrifying episode of the novel he had read last night, the door in front of him slammed open. Zhang Siyuan was taken aback by the mutation in front of him, and was caught off guard and almost fell on the threshold of others, but fortunately he held on to the door frame in a hurry.

Zhang Siyuan raised his head in embarrassment, only to feel that his cheeks were hot. Standing in front of him was a middle-aged man in his thirties, with small swollen eyelids, stubbornly curled hair on the back of his head, and a gray checkered pajamas.

He yawned, and his voice had just woken up: "Are you?" ”

Zhang Siyuan was about to sweat, and waved his hand again and again: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong place." ”

He turned his head and ran downstairs as if he was running away, but heard a voice behind him: "Are you looking for Teacher Cui?" ”

Zhang Siyuan turned his head: "Yes, is he not at home?" ”

The man slapped his thigh and beckoned to him: "Come up." ”

Zhang Siyuan was a little angry, turned back and followed him into the house: "Who is Teacher Cui?" ”

The man touched the stubble on his chin: "I am." ”

Zhang Siyuan was stunned, carefully scanned the man from beginning to end, and couldn't help frowning slightly. The man noticed Zhang Siyuan's unhappiness, put all the messy small objects on the table into his pocket, and said slightly apologetically: "You sit here and wait for me for a while, and I'll go in and change my clothes." ”

Zhang Siyuan pursed his lips and looked at the environment in the room. This Mr. Cui's home is decently furnished, and the furniture is the most common one on the market, which is not much different from his own home.

Zhang Siyuan's eyes turned around in the eye frame, but he suddenly unexpectedly found something that was incompatible with the entire indoor environment.

In the corner of the living room, there was a spiritual seat, in front of which there was neither tribute nor incense, but there was a paper figure with a blood-red mouth and eyes painted.

Zhang Siyuan was suspicious and wanted to get closer to take a closer look, but it happened that at this time, Teacher Cui came out of the room wearing a white T-shirt and jeans, and smiled at him: "I'm sorry to keep you waiting so long, now let's start class." ”

Although Zhang Siyuan was very interested in the thing in the corner, he was embarrassed to ask him anything out of politeness, so he had to sit upright on the stool and listen to his lecture according to his patience.

"This problem is trigonometric functions...... I think you're also a pretty smart guy, how did you get into that this test? ”

Zhang Siyuan took a sip in his heart and sneered: "I don't listen carefully when I am in class." ”

Teacher Cui smiled slightly, and then moved on to the next question. Zhang Siyuan stared at the scratch paper and thought about what he had said, but suddenly there was an extremely rough and powerful slamming sound at the door.
