Chapter 22: Tears

My uncle's seedlings were finally planted, and my report card was sent out. And although the test this time is not bad, it is far from being as good as last time. This time, I only scored 83 points in Chinese and 97 points in mathematics. I ranked behind Li Yaowen, although I was very unwilling, but he was eighty-four in Chinese and one hundred in mathematics. I wondered why he was always 100 in math and I couldn't get a perfect score in math. But the same as last year, he still didn't come to get the report card this time, and he still asked Yang Mumu to bring it back. I thought to myself that he was really good, he could go to Shanghai to play during the holidays, and he didn't have to do any work.

When I got home, I told my dad about the results, but he didn't say anything. Just talk about the next effort. I thought he would go on and on, but I didn't expect him to just say one thing and stop working hard next time.

It was also on that day, when it was almost dark, that my grandfather, uncle, aunt, and I finally planted the last bit of land. At this point, all the work of the uncle's family was done.

When I got home that night, at the dinner table, I asked, "Which field are you going to plant tomorrow?" ”

"What else are you going to plant when it's all planted? No land will be planted! The aunt said.

I was very upset when I heard her say that, but because my father said that I couldn't talk back. So he didn't hear it, so he asked his uncle, "Tomorrow are you going to pump water first?" ”

When my uncle heard me ask him that, he looked up at me and said, "Your father probably deserves it?" Can't hope for anything? ”

I listened to his words and became more and more panicked, but I still endured it, and said, "It should be possible......"

"If you can, let your uncle pump water from the family's field, and your grandfather will plant it! There is not much land! The aunt said.

"Then didn't I plant it for you? My dad also has seedlings! I said.

"Didn't your uncle pump water for your house? I'll give you your seedling! There are two people in your family, and two people in our family will also come out of your family! No one said they wouldn't do it for your family! The aunt said.

I was powerless to refute her words, although my heart had already burst into tears. But on the surface, she still has to pretend that she is joking, and I don't care.

"That's right, there's not much land, and it's planted in a few days......

"Go and ask your dad for two hundred yuan to buy vegetables, otherwise who will do it for you......"

For the next few days, these words lingered in my ears all the time, but I couldn't hear anything. After that, in order to get better, I went to ask my dad for money. I told him what I was thinking, and he didn't say anything, just sighed and fumbled in his pocket.

At that time, no matter whose grief and helplessness I was helpless, I held back all the tears and sadness and closed my mouth.

After a week, all the work was really over. While I breathed a sigh of relief, I also saw the shadows reflected on the water.

A skinny little black girl, covered in sludge and full of sadness. But in the end she smiled, with a summer of tears.

It's been a month since the summer vacation, and then I started to write my homework and review with peace of mind. Strive to get a good score in the next exam and get back my first place.

But when I think of the first place, I think of Li Yaowen, and I don't know if he is back......
