Chapter 7: Returning Home
Changhe has a tradition that before going home, he must go to the classroom to listen to the class teacher's meeting, and only after receiving his homework can he go home.
The seats have not yet been arranged, so Song Yao arranged a seat table and pasted it on the blackboard in front of her, so that everyone could sit in the right seat, and sit in this order after officially entering the study and life.
In the middle row is a table for three people, and on either side is a table for two people. Zhou Luo was assigned to the far left of the middle row, next to Meng Xiangting and Mu Youyou, and in front of him were Yu Bing and the other two roommates. It can be seen that the seating chart is probably arranged according to the dormitory.
And the boy who sang during military training, he sat behind her to the left.
Everyone sat neatly, Song Yao took her notebook and began to speak, "This time, the principal understands that everyone is a freshman, and he is afraid that everyone will be homesick, so he specially gives us a vacation for freshmen in high school." ”
There was a cheer below, and you and I said a word, which seemed a little noisy.
"Stop talking, listen to you or listen to me?"
The discussion came to an abrupt end. Song Yao looks very good-looking, but when she is serious, she is still quite intimidating.
"It's a holiday, but you can't be too indulgent. After this holiday, there will be a monthly exam in another month, and everyone should adjust their mentality when they go home and come back to prepare for the exam. As soon as these words came out, it was different from the previous cheers, and there was a lot of mourning underneath.
Zhou Luo sighed, just take the test, I have already prepared for the countdown.
The first time I went home week, everyone seemed excited. As soon as the bell rang, the classroom was empty.
A large number of parents gathered outside the school gate, and the crowded alley entrance was as spectacular as the first day of school.
Zhou Luo had just walked to a place more than ten meters away from the door, and Ye Hui's voice passed through the crowd and directly into her ears, "Luoluo, Luoluo!" Mommy is here! ”
Ye Hui stood there, almost jumping up to attract Zhou Luo's attention.
In order not to let her really jump, Zhou Luo drifted in front of her as fast as he could.
"Mom, why are you free to pick me up today?"
"Oh, I'm going to your Aunt Bai's house for dinner today, and I'll continue sailing by the way." Ye Hui's eyes searched everywhere for Bai Luofan's figure.
Zhou Luo followed her gaze to look at the crowd, and she realized that the students who came out were wearing the same school uniforms and the same hairstyles, and it really looked like they couldn't tell who was who from a distance, especially if she was a small person, it was even more difficult to find.
Ye Hui was able to find her so sharp-eyed.
Soon, Bai Luofan ran over to them and greeted them affectionately: "Hello, Auntie." ”
Ye Hui suddenly smiled into a flower, "Fan Fan is really getting more and more handsome." ”
Bai Luofan smiled a little embarrassedly.
"Let's go, your Uncle Zhou is still waiting outside. The road outside your school is so narrow that cars can't drive in. ”
Zhou Luo paused: "My dad is here too?" ”
"Yes, your father said that he couldn't see you off last time, and he came to pick you up this time."
Zhou Luo was silent for a few seconds, and let out a dry "oh".
Ye Hui hugged Zhou Luo with her left hand and Bai Luofan with her right hand, and took them to "fight their way out of the encirclement".
The car was parked not far away, and she was no stranger to the car, but she hadn't seen the person driving for a long time, both familiar and unfamiliar.
"Daddy." She got into the car and shouted faintly.
Zhou Moshan has been doing business outside all the year round, and he is so busy that he can't go home a few times a year, and the relationship between father and daughter is slowly only maintained by the only bond of blood.
Father Zhou in the mirror happily replied and found an extremely cheesy word: "How does the new school feel?" ”
Zhou Luo replied casually: "I haven't officially started class yet, but I feel okay." ”
"The learning atmosphere of class A must be good, and it's not easy to ask someone to find a relationship to get in, you have to study hard." After Zhou Moshan finished speaking, he started the car.
Zhou Luo lowered his eyes, and his eyes dimmed a little.
She still remembers that night, the head teacher of the junior high school suddenly called her out mysteriously, saying that she was on the list of Class A, and she was so happy that she didn't sleep all night. Early the next morning, she called her parents to report the good news, and the truth poured her from head to foot like a basin of cold water.
There were only five places to be admitted, and she happened to be sixth. It was Zhou Moshantuo who asked for an extra quota to stuff her in.
She thought she had earned her spot through her hard work, but it turned out to be just a joke.
"Not being admitted at that time means that my ability is not worthy of Class A, and I can't guarantee what I will learn." Zhou Luo said coldly.
After learning the truth, Zhou Luo was depressed for a while, but thinking about it calmly, maybe even if she was forcibly put in Class A, she might not be able to keep up with it in the future. Besides, who doesn't know that Changhe's Class A has always cultivated top science students, and she has long thought about studying literature. After thinking about it, Zhou Luo decided to give up the quota, but Zhou Moshan resolutely disagreed, and the father and daughter quarreled about it, and finally ended in Zhou Luo compromising.
can compromise, it doesn't mean that Zhou Luo has no worries at all.
Zhou Moshan glanced at his daughter from the mirror and did not speak.
The father and daughter were relatively silent, and the car was quiet for a while. The atmosphere was a little awkward, and Ye Hui had to find another topic: "How is Fanfan in the new class?" ”
"Very good aunt." Bai Luofan responded, turned his head and quietly glanced at Zhou Luo.
Zhou Luo looked out the window expressionlessly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Bai Luofan's expression moved slightly.
The biggest change in Zhou Luo is that she never had this kind of silent time before.
"After Luoluo, you and Fanfan will take care of each other, you know?" Ye Hui said.
Zhou Luo replied absentmindedly.
She leaned against the window, and the cold wind blew in her face, relieving the soreness in her eyes.
*
The neighborhood where they live is long and relatively close, and they arrived quickly.
The two of them saw such a table of delicacies at first glance under the "feeding rabbits" offensive in the school cafeteria, and their eyes suddenly glowed green.
Oh, it's the taste of home! It's the taste of the food!
The two of them were busy eating, and they didn't know what they thought these two children were at the scene of the Big Stomach King Competition.
Only the children's attention is on eating, and most of the adults' meals are for communication.
"Changhe has always been divided into subjects in half a year, don't look at it as just enrolled, at the end of this semester, it will be divided into arts and sciences, and it is necessary to plan early for the selection of literature or science." Bai Mu Lin Xia is also a high school teacher and is very sensitive to this.
Ye Hui glanced at her daughter and said with a smile: "Look at the child himself." ”
"I also think so, in order to fully let the children give full play to their own initiative, we parents can only give some suggestions for reference." As soon as Father Bai spoke, the tone of his usual work in the government was exposed.
Zhou Moshan seemed to feel that Father Bai's words could not make him agree, and retorted: "What do children know, I think it's better to choose science, what should I do if I really choose liberal arts and regret it in the future?" ”
Zhou Luo didn't speak when he heard this, but the frequency of chewing food decreased a lot.
She wanted to study literature.
She had already told Ye Hui about this idea, but she had never mentioned a word to Zhou Moshan. There is very little day-to-day communication, let alone any of this.
Ye Hui saw her daughter's emotional changes, stabbed Zhou's father with her elbow, and smiled and played a round: "We Luoluo is a little girl, and it's good for a little girl to study liberal arts." ”
Zhou Moshan looked at his wife, and there was a fog in the clouds.
Zhou Luo didn't look up at her father, she always felt that he would find another opportunity to mention letting her study science.
Sure enough, as soon as he got home, he finally asked about it: "Luoluo, don't you want to study science?" ”
"Well, I love liberal arts."
The air was quiet for a moment. Zhou Moshan laughed dryly a few times and said, "Of course Dad still supports your choice." But you have to know that there are more opportunities to study science than literature, and there are more choices of majors......"
"I thought about it, I will study literature in high school, and then apply for journalism majors." Zhou Luo interrupted Zhou's father's words with a loud voice.
Zhou Moshan paused, and said: "Dad doesn't want to stop you from studying liberal arts, Dad is from here, liberal arts are really much worse than science, and the score line of liberal arts is several tens higher than that of science every year, and there are fewer schools and majors to choose." What if you say you can't find a job in the future? ”
Parents are always inexplicably hostile to liberal arts, as if their children can already foresee a dark future after studying liberal arts.
"I like liberal arts, I like journalism, even if you force me to study science, will I be able to study well? I know best how hard I worked in junior high school physics, but you don't know. ”
"You don't understand it yet, but when you graduate, you'll know what I'm telling you now. Whether you can study science or science, there are too few ways out in the future of studying literature. Only stupid people want to study literature to escape science! ”
The brain is stupid, there is no interest, and there are few ways out. The labels of these liberal arts students are like a thousand shackles, locking them up.
A nameless fire suddenly ignited in her heart, and her voice suddenly increased: "Since you have said that you support my choice, why do you still come to tell me this?" Even if I can't get into a good university or find a good job in the future, what does that have to do with you? Since I was a child, have you ever taken care of me? ”
Zhou Moshan looked at his angry daughter and was speechless for a while.
Zhou Luo's eyes were hot, she didn't want to cry, but every time she was emotional, she couldn't help but moisten her eyes.
Can't cry, she doesn't care what he says.
She took a deep breath and dropped a sentence: "I don't know how to reason." So he hid in his room.
Zhou Moshan watched in silence as the door was closed, and sat back on the sofa in some frustration.
He couldn't count the first time that their father and daughter had broken up.
