Chapter 44: Paintings in Memory
When I got home, my dad was cooking on the pot. I pushed the car into the house and went to help him. When he saw this, he asked me if I had written my homework. I nodded and told him that I didn't have much homework today, and I would finish it at school.
"We have an exam today." I thought about it for a while, but I decided to tell him about today's exam.
Sure enough, when he heard me say this, he asked me how I was doing. Probably the first place? At the end, he asked me, what about the child surnamed Li?
"How do I know, I didn't ask him!"
"Then why don't you ask? Aren't you two at the same table? My dad said as he stir-fryed. I was a little annoyed by his words, because he always compared me to others. And whether I'm really good or not, in his eyes, others are excellent. "If you haven't taken the exam surnamed Li, you won't be able to read it next semester!"
See, every time he doesn't leave this sentence.
After eating, I took the English book and memorized it under the lamp. Because I'm going to take the English test tomorrow, I'm going to have to review it. And I'm almost forgetting all the words I learned before. After a month of studying, I found that I was quite interested in English. But it doesn't seem to interest me. I'm not a big fan of memorizing, but I have to memorize a lot of English. Although I put a lot of effort into it, I always feel that the results are not satisfactory. Therefore, I don't know if tomorrow's English test will be smashed.
"I'm going to go to Shawan tomorrow to see your aunt, and today I met Xiaolu and said that your uncle is seriously ill. I'm not at home for the past two days, don't be greedy! ”
I looked up and saw that my dad was holding a basin to cover the leftovers on the table. "How many days are you going?"
"Who knows, it's up there to see how it goes! It will take at least a day or two, and it will be difficult to say if the situation is not good. ”
"Oh." I nodded.
"Do you have any money?" My dad asked me.
"There are more than two dollars." "Is there enough for next week?" "Enough, it's only one dollar a week's meal, how can it not be enough! I don't often buy food from the cafeteria, but I buy it occasionally! ”
"Don't spend money indiscriminately, don't you know if you don't have money at home? The dishes in the cafeteria are not clean, isn't it good to fry them at home and take them with you? ”
"It's all cold!" "Isn't the rice hot? Can't you just mix it in your rice? ”
"Oh......"
The next morning I got up early in the morning, fried shredded potatoes, ate a little myself, kept a little, and brought a little more. When I went out, my dad had just gotten up. When he saw me pushing the cart, he nagged me again, nothing more than to study hard and not be greedy for fun, and to come back to see my exam papers and so on.
I annoyed him, so I agreed and pushed the cart away. When I arrived at school very early, there were only three or four people in the class. And among these three or four people, there is Li Yaowen.
"Morning!" He saw me and greeted me.
"Morning!" I replied to him and sat down in my seat. When I took the book, I muttered in my heart, why is this person so early every day, isn't he sleepy?
"Hey ......"
"What's wrong?" Li Yaowen raised his eyes to look at me.
"I wonder how many hours you sleep every day? Why come so early every day? ”
"Well...... Li Yaowen held his chin and muttered, "It's about nine o'clock, sometimes it's a little late." ”
"And what time do you wake up?"
"Wake up on time at five!" Li Yaowen showed off to me.
Isn't that similar to me? "And what time are you leaving home?"
"Half past five." "Huh? You don't eat? "Eat, there is a breakfast seller in our village, I'll just eat from there!"
"Oh!" No wonder, it turns out that this person is all buying food to eat, no wonder the speed is so fast, it turns out that there is no need to cook. "Okay......"
The second and third classes in the afternoon are English exams. On the way to make the papers, I felt for the first time what difficulty is. Because there are several questions that I don't know, and there are others that I am not sure about. In the final English essay, I was also a little bad at forming sentences. So I scribbled a little bit. When the roll was finished, I felt like I was terrible. This English paper has 120 points, and I think it is difficult for me to take the 90 points.
When I glanced at Li Yaowen with my spare eyes, I found that his expression was very calm, as if this volume was not difficult for him.
After the exam, I was lying on my desk and didn't want to speak. When Li Yaowen saw this, he asked me what was wrong, I didn't want to pay attention to him. I shook my head and said that it was nothing, but I was a little late to read last night and didn't sleep well.
"Don't read so late at night, be careful to burn your eyes!" Li Yaowen said. I hummed twice, but my heart was sad about the exam just now.
The last class on Thursday morning was art, which was relatively relaxed. It also reduced a little bit of the gloom left in my heart about the last exam. The art teacher only gave us a lecture for about ten minutes, and then asked the class representative to send us a drawing book. Let's each draw a landscape and turn it in by Friday.
I'm not very good at drawing, but I love to draw. When I'm bored, I draw on a blank piece of paper. Although the painting is not good, it can still be seen.
I thought about it and decided to paint the small elm forest in front of my house. Although the elms are long gone, I always have a picture of the scene at dusk in my mind.
The sun had not yet set, and there was nothing in the distant sky, allowing the halo of twilight to envelop the small elm forest. A flock of baby sparrows stood on the power lines high above the elm grove, chirping, and then, when dusk came, they flew back to their nests.
"What are you drawing?" Li Yaowen suddenly put his head on my side and asked. I was concentrating on recalling the grove in front of my house, but when he interrupted it like this, the picture in my mind that was hard to put together was shattered.
I glared at him and thought to myself, can't you just paint your own picture in peace? Do you know how hard it was for me to recall the images. It was just broken by your words. When Li Yaowen saw me glaring at him, he said, "Don't be so fierce, it won't be good to take a look!" ”
"What do you know? The picture I finally recalled was broken by your words, I don't even know how to draw now, and the inspiration is gone! I said angrily, and I saw Li Yaowen staring at the painting I had drawn, as if thinking about something. I was annoyed by him, so I pressed the sketchbook with my arm and said to him, "Look at what you see, draw your own paintings!" ”
"No, I was thinking that something was missing from your drawing." Li Yaowen said, frowning and thinking. I didn't bother to pay attention to him, turned around and continued to think about the scene just now. I heard Li Yaowen suddenly say, "By the way, it's dusk, you didn't draw the light of dusk!" ”
"I'm drawing in the daytime, can't I?" I turned my head and glared at Li Yaowen on the side again, didn't he feel annoying?
"I'm just giving you a piece of advice!" Li Yaowen saw that I was so fierce and vicious, and shrunk his neck and said.
"Humph!" I snorted coldly and ignored him. However, I was a little mindful of what he had just said. He actually thought of dusk in the same way as I thought in my heart.
