Chapter 11: Lighting a Fire to the Volcano
Wen Ju'an is very well-behaved, speaks softly and glutinously, and exudes a delicate atmosphere, giving people the feeling of a sister next door.
But the first time He Tian saw her, he felt that he saw a hedgehog covered in thorns, willful and stubborn.
"Ju'an, this is Teacher Qiao, your uncle specially asked you to help you with your homework, say hello to the teacher." Mother Wen's attitude towards He Tian was very enthusiastic.
is different from the play, Wen Qinghua asked Qiao Yicheng to be Wen Ju'an's tutor, thinking about helping his niece at the same time, but also allowing Qiao Yicheng to earn more money to supplement his life.
Before teaching this job, Qiao Yicheng helped in a restaurant, guarded a bookstore, and tutored elementary school students....
The poor financial situation made him almost cut off from all social activities that cost money, and locked himself in his own small world.
For the job of tutoring Wen Ju'an, Wen's mother gave a lot of money, so in front of Qiao Yicheng, although Wen's mother was also very polite, it was only a superficial politeness, giving people a feeling of being upright.
But in front of He Tian, Mother Wen couldn't stand up at all.
Before he came, He Tian had already agreed with Wen Qinghua that this tutoring was to help, and the Wen family didn't need to pay him, anyway, he didn't look down on these three melons and two dates.
Wen Qinghua insisted on giving it, He Tian said that he would not do it, Wen Qinghua was moved, and he could only accept it.
Therefore, in the matter of being a tutor for Wen Ju'an, the initiative is completely in the hands of He Tian, and the mother of Wen who has a request for others cannot be put up.
"Hello Mr. Qiao." Wen Ju'an said, staring at He Tian's two big eyes full of curiosity.
Wen Ju'an also has some understanding of the tutor invited by his uncle.
She and He Tian are two terms apart, and she also went to high school when He Tian took the college entrance examination.
As a high school student, it is natural to pay attention to the information of the college entrance examination, not to mention that the teachers in her school have to pour chicken soup for students every time, and there is always an ingredient in the chicken soup.
In the mouths of the teachers, He Tian's family background is very ordinary, his residence is simple, his parents' salaries are low, and there are many children in the family, so his life is very stressful.
But it was under such difficult conditions that He Tian won the first place in the school for many years, and the college entrance examination broke the record.
Wen Ju'an remembered that the big-bellied head teacher in the first year of high school said with emotion: "Success is 99 percent sweat, plus 1 percent talent." Don't look at Qiao Yicheng to win easily, how much sweat he has paid behind his back, who knows? ”
Privately, students will also discuss, and they urgently need some entertaining topics to release their stress after their heavy academic workload.
As a result, Wen Ju'an heard many rumors about He Tian from the mouths of his classmates.
For example, I read hard until two or three o'clock in the evening every day, and I got up before dawn to memorize words.
In order to save a little bit of electricity, I borrowed the light next door in the yard to read a book.
When eating, you have to spread out a teaching book at hand, and use the questions to eat.
It's terrifying, it's a reading machine.
After a brief chat with Mother Wen, Mother Wen went out to buy vegetables, and He Tian entered the room with Wen Ju'an.
The door is not closed, although it is a teacher-student relationship, but they are all young men and women, and it is better to pay attention to some things.
"Before I start lecturing, I need to know you a little bit about you. Find out the test papers you have recently examined, all subjects, I will take a look at them first. As soon as he sat down, He Tian took on the role.
"Oh." Wen Ju'an obediently answered, rummaged in the cabinet for a while, and handed the sorted roll to He Tian.
He Tian took it and browsed them one by one in the order in which they were folded.
When He Tian was flipping through the scroll, Wen Juan didn't speak, just put his hands on his knees and looked at He Tian quietly, his eyes were a little dazed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
The girl's boudoir was quiet, except for the cicadas outside the window.
He Tian looked at the test paper very quickly, focused on the place where the points were deducted, and had some idea of Wen Ju'an's situation in his heart, so he put the paper away and put it on the table.
Wen Ju'an was still in a daze.
"What are you thinking?" He Tian stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Wen Ju'an.
"Oh, nothing." Wen Ju'an, who was caught wandering, was a little embarrassed.
He Tian didn't expose her, pointed to the paper and said: "I heard your uncle say that you are a little biased, and you are not very good at Chinese and English, but mathematics used to be very good, but I just read your paper, and even lost a lot of points in mathematics, and some of the questions of the knowledge points in the first year of high school are wrong." I wonder why, can you tell me about that? ”
The expression on Wen Ju'an's face instantly fell, and he turned sideways and didn't look at He Tian: "I don't think it's useful to learn this." My mother wants me to choose a teacher or media after I am admitted to university, do I need mathematics to learn this? ”
Wen Ju'an spoke a little depressed, and his words were full of resentment.
"I don't know if you're a teacher or a media, but I know that if you continue like this, you're good at being a piece of waste."
"Teacher Qiao, you just.... What did you just say? “
Wen Ju'an was a little skeptical that his ears were broken.
Rubbish?!
After living for so many years, it is the first time she has received such an evaluation.
How could a mouth of thirty-seven degrees say such cold words!
"I can't hear you clearly, then I'll repeat it, I said that if you continue like this, you will only be a waste." He Tian said the words again with a slow tempo.
Wen Ju'an now confirmed that he heard correctly.
Her already big eyes were as if they were about to fall out of their sockets in the next second, and her weak and delicate girlish temperament was gone.
The rebellion of adolescence has made her about to transform into a fierce little beast with bared teeth and grinning.
"I don't even have the courage to tell the truth, I just make some plausible funny excuses." He Tian seemed to be unaware of the seriousness of the situation, and continued to add a spoonful of water to the boiling oil pot.
Cracking sound!
The sound of oil splashes exploding suddenly sounded in the air!
Before meeting, Wen Ju'an imagined the scene of the two being alone, but she didn't expect this scene at all.
The first time they met, she was trampled into the mud and ate a mouthful of dirt.
The fair-skinned face was stained with redness, and the rapid air flow rushed out of the nostrils, and the room was terrifyingly oppressive, like a suffocation before a rainstorm.
"Why do you call me a piece of rubbish?!" Like the fury of a volcanic eruption, Wen Ju'an's high-pitched voice was full of anger.
He Tian unhurriedly stretched out his left hand and clenched it into a fist.
"Whether it's English or mathematics, it's a compulsory item in the college entrance examination. Only by passing the college entrance examination can you go to university. Whether these subjects will be useful in the future or not is not important at all, what matters is the present. If you give up on yourself knowing this, then you are an irresponsible piece of waste. If you don't even know this, you're an idiot who doesn't even know that! ”
The index finger is cocked.
