Yuan Qi showed the poem to Gu Huai with great interest, and Gu Huai glanced at it and felt that it didn't make sense.

But he certainly can't dampen Yuan Qi's confidence.

A person's faith is very important, and without faith, nothing can be accomplished.

Gu Huai read his poem and praised: "If I'm not mistaken, you just started writing?" ”

Yuan Qi was very proud: "Yes! ”

Gu Huai: "Then you are really amazing!" ”

Yuan Qi was even more proud: "I plan to submit this to the newspaper, if there is a manuscript fee, I will invite you to eat braised pork!" The kind of full fat! ”

Gu Huai glanced at the enamel jar where he boiled lard, smiled, and felt that if Yuan Qi's poem could be chosen, it would really be a fire on his ancestral grave.

This kind of luck is no longer something that can be done by smoking.

Gu Huai decided that as a reward for Yuan Qi to take care of the child later, he could give him a little manuscript fee.

"Brother Yuan Qi, I think your poem is too perfect and a little ungrounded, you might as well change it slightly to make it look like it was written by a human."

Gu Huai felt that this was really the most sincere sentence he had ever said.

Yuan Qi touched his chin, feeling that what he really wanted to express was too profound, and it was normal for others not to understand it. Sure enough, Brother Gu still understands himself: "But how can this be changed?" ”

Gu Huai said a few words to him, and Yuan Qi felt that his inspiration had come again.

He hurriedly found a pen, crossed out his original poem, and replaced it with a new one:

Wheat, yellow!

Persimmon, red!

Laugh, kid!

Life, all right!

The sun is rising!

Working people, stand up!

Yuan Qi held the paper and couldn't put it down: "Brother Gu, you are really a mentor and a good friend, a mentor and a good friend, I found that you can especially stimulate my talent!" ”

Gu Huai: "Really? Then I'll have to charge for it next time. ”

Yuan Qi: ???

Why do you suddenly have to collect money? Is it too late for him to retract what he just said now?

Outside, Xiao Xiao and Gu Xiaoliu walked in talking and laughing, and saw Yuan Qi slightly stunned.

Gu Huai's face did not change, and he smiled and beckoned to the two of them: "Come here, meet your new teacher." ”

Xiao Xiao was struggling and didn't want to come over.

Before she met the scholar, she still had a little longing for the latter, but after he taught her to write last time, she had no longing at all.

She thinks that the scholar is just a straw bag, except that the words are relatively good-looking, there is nothing special at all.

The word teacher is still relatively new to Gu Xiaoliu.

She opened her mouth: "Teacher, is it delicious?" ”

All:......

In order to make Gu Xiaoliu not make a fool of herself, Xiao Xiaogan smiled and pulled her away, Yuan Qi looked at Gu Huai and said seriously: "I think your sister really needs education, and education needs to be popularized!" ”

It's something he's been looking at in the newspaper lately, and it's just the right thing to learn.

Gu Huai patted him on the shoulder: "This glorious task will be handed over to you, come on." ”

Yuan Qi feels that he has a long way to go, but what is the first step to become a teacher?

Ah, yes, prepare for class. If he wants to be a teacher, he must be like a teacher.

Yuan Qi calculated, went to the post office, and sent his poems.

Xiao Xiao and Gu Xiaoliu quickly forgot about this little episode.

The most important thing now is the New Year, and nothing will be more important than the New Year.

Gu Xiaoliu likes to celebrate the New Year because there are a lot of delicious foods during the New Year.

And Xiao Xiao is nervous about the New Year because his relatives will move around at this time.

Especially the Gu family.

Relatives don't interact with each other on weekdays, but they do move around during the Chinese New Year.

Gu Zhongyi is the third in the family, with an eldest brother at the top, a second sister, and a fourth brother at the bottom.

Their family originally had a total of eight children, and four survived, and they belonged to a family that was not very vigorous.

So I don't have much contact on weekdays.

Of course, you don't come and go, and you also need something to go back and forth, so you can't come to the door with ginger in both hands.

The New Year is different, the New Year, everyone comes and goes to eat and drink, all formal, and you can touch a handful of sugar before leaving, which is really cost-effective.

In previous years, Gu Zhongyi was the one who was laughed at.

He was just an ordinary peasant, who planted the land with the big collective, and was not like his eldest brother, who took up his father's position as a worker, nor like his fourth brother, who married a city daughter-in-law.

In a few people's homes, he is the most shabby.

Not to mention money, he even gave birth to six daughters in a row before he squeezed out a son.

For this alone, the fourth brother, who has three sons, laughed at him for a long time, and together with Huang Cuicui, he couldn't raise his head.

But this year is different, Huang Cuicui has money on hand, so she asked Gu Zhongyi to make a few lanterns, hang them at her door, and prepare a table of good dishes, just to give herself a long face.

It's rare for her to be able to raise her eyebrows, of course, she has to take this breath!

On Chinese New Year's Eve, they spent their own family, and Huang Cuicui gave a red envelope to several children.

There is no doubt that Gu Huai's red envelope is the largest, with a full dollar. Gu Xiaowu and Gu Xiaoliu are four cents each, and Xiao Xiao only has two cents.

Although Xiao Xiao's red envelope was the smallest, she was still very happy.

This is the first red envelope she got when she came to Gu Jia!

In previous years, Huang Cuicui's red envelopes have never had her share.

She is not a member of the Gu family, Huang Cuicui has already taken care of her when she lives in the Gu family, where does she dare to ask for any red envelopes to press the New Year's money?

But this year she has!

Although Huang Cuicui was reluctant to give it, she still gave one to her.

Xiao Xiao put the woolen ticket wrapped in red paper in the clothes on his chest, lowered his head and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

Chinese New Year's Eve was to be celebrated, but the children couldn't stay up too long, and they all fell asleep at midnight. After Huang Cuicui and Gu Zhongyi sacrificed to their ancestors, they also fell asleep, and got up early the next morning to be busy with the New Year's things.

They packed the candy and went from house to house to pay New Year's greetings, and the sound of firecrackers was incessant, and there was green smoke everywhere.

Gu Xiaoliu followed behind Huang Cuicui and sniffed desperately. She loves to smell the scent of firecrackers when they burn.

On the first day of junior high school, they went to eat at the Gu family's old family.

The eldest of the Gu family lives in the next village. His son was very promising, and built a red brick house.

Boss Gu and his daughter-in-law stood at the door, waiting for Gu Zhongyi to lead the child.

Huang Cuicui was wearing a newly bought cotton jacket, because she was afraid of being burned by firecrackers, and she walked very unimposingly.

Gu Lao's daughter-in-law saw it and couldn't help laughing: "The third brother and daughter-in-law are still the same as before." ”

She always wants to hurt Huang Cuicui two sentences, as if if she doesn't say two words to her, her tongue will be shortened.

Huang Cuicui was confident this time, and patted the clothes on her body:

"There's no way, I'm just such a two-dollar dress, if it burns, I have to find someone to make it up, after all, two dollars, not everyone can make up for it."

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Gu family widened her eyes.

She looked at Huang Cuicui's new padded jacket and thought:

It can't be coaxing her, right?

She? Huang Cuicui? A two-dollar padded jacket? Deceptive, right?
