Rolling mills.

Zhou Jimin sat in front of the window basking in the sun, squinting and enjoying.

A few days ago, he suggested to Qin Jianguo and several other nearby brigades at Liu Dachun's house that if it could, then build a reservoir, and if it couldn't be done, then forget it.

He didn't say anything more, other than that there would be a drought in the year.

It's still too late to build a reservoir.

When spring begins, the snow melts and the reservoir is able to store water.

But if it is built after the beginning of spring, it will be almost a waste of work.

Anyway, I can't take care of it this year, and it's hard to say next year.

Several people in charge knew that Zhou Jimin was a capable person, although he was only a second-level worker in the rolling mill, but the deeds of inventing distribution boxes, installing transformers, and improving brake pads spread in the neighborhood.

So everyone is willing to believe him, besides, even if there is no big drought next year, the reservoir can raise fish and poultry, increase the income of the brigade, and there is no loss at all, so why not do it?

Several brigades outside the city are in full swing to repair the reservoir.

The workers of the rolling mill are also counting the upcoming Spring Festival.

The low-key Zhou Jimin didn't think about this.

When I go to work every day, I can touch the fish when I can, and read a book when I am bored.

After getting off work that day, he did not go back to the courtyard directly as before, but went to Xinhua Bookstore.

Buy the book!

The Spring Festival is in February, and after the Spring Festival, there are less than five months left before the college entrance examination in July.

Although universities in this era require a recommendation to study, Zhou Jimin still hopes to be admitted with strength.

After all, if he asked Lao Yang to write a letter of recommendation, he would most likely be rejected.

Because he wants to go to the best university to study mathematics.

This place is currently the top major in the top universities in China, and if you rely only on recommendation letters, I am afraid that it will not be enough.

Now that you have set this goal, you have to work hard.

Although mathematics is a subject that pays attention to talent, Zhou Jimin is open.

It's just that the opening is open, and the foundation has to be made up.

"Hello, help me calculate, how much?"

When the cashier saw that it was Zhou Jimin, his eyes were surprised, and his hand movements were not slow.

There are five books in total, all of which are related to mathematics, so he must be a college student, right?

The cashier who was thinking like this in his heart had already calculated the price in his mouth:

"Hello, a total of 4 yuan."

Books in this era were not cheap either.

Villain books like Heroes' Sentinels, Fighting, Childhood, etc., are basically priced at two cents to three cents a book.

However, a book like Chinese bonsai and its cultivation costs 8 cents.

At the same time, the 1957 edition of the Xinhua Dictionary was priced at 1 yuan.

So, at this time, the price of books is really not cheap.

This is why many people's families, older brothers and sisters' textbooks are basically well preserved, and even need to use homemade covers to protect the textbooks, in addition to the high price itself, they need to be left to younger brothers and sisters, etc., and there is this era, which respects knowledge very much.

Knowledge is power, and this is the most vivid manifestation in this era.

The five books Zhou Jimin bought are all related books on college mathematics.

Foreign literature cannot be purchased, so you can only ask someone to borrow it.

Handing the 4 yuan to the other party, Zhou Jimin picked up the book and left Xinhua Bookstore.

When he got home, Ding Qiunan couldn't help but be surprised when he saw that he had bought books again.

"Jimin, I said, have you been stunned lately? How long has it been since I bought a book? Can you see it? Don't waste your money. ”

"Haha, I told you a long time ago, I'm a genius, you still don't believe it, do you want to test me?"

Looking at Zhou Jimin's confident face, Ding Qiunan picked up the book placed at home suspiciously, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Zhou Shuqing first:

"Sister Nan, don't be deceived by my brother, he is really powerful here."

As she spoke, she pointed to the door of her head.

But Ding Qiunan didn't believe it and had to try.

Soon, she was autistic.

Because Zhou Jimin's memory is really powerful.

Zhou Shuqing and Zhou Jikang, the two sisters and brothers on the side, gave Ding Qiunan a look of 'I had already told you'.

Of course, the two siblings still remember the scene when they were hit by their eldest brother a few months ago.

The little goldfish clapped his palms excitedly, the fourth child was full of envy, scratched his brain, and thought to himself, it was all born by a parent, why is the eldest brother always so powerful?

"Do you want to try again?"

Ding Qiunan shook his head, why do you need to try again? Did she think she hadn't been hit enough?

"Little goldfish, check your homework, how many words did you learn today?"

As soon as Zhou Jimin spoke, the little goldfish suddenly wanted to escape.

But as soon as she turned around, the whole person was lifted up by her eldest brother.

"Hee-hee, big brother, can I go to the toilet first?"

Looking at her eldest brother, the little goldfish laughed and flattered, but when she saw her eldest brother becoming serious, she suddenly didn't dare to laugh anymore.

The eldest brother with a straight face is even more terrifying than the second sister.

Then obediently endorse it.

Although she was only five years old and officially enrolled at the age of seven, she had four older siblings, which was enough to teach her to go to school.

From the first grade to the sixth grade of primary school, Zhou Shuqing can teach.

It's just that since the little goldfish's birthday, this teaching has officially begun, and it was Zhou Jimin himself.

"Okay, yes, take the homework book and pen and go to practice writing, Xiaoqing, you go and supervise her."

The little goldfish hurriedly ran away, compared to the eldest brother, she now felt that the second sister was not as terrible as before.

It was the turn of the fourth child, Zhou Jimin directly asked him to talk about what the teacher said today.

He completely regarded himself as a student and asked the fourth child to repeat it.

When the fourth child was almost finished, Ding Qiunan also finished dinner.

At the dining table, the little goldfish complained a little:

"Big brother, why haven't you made roast meat and sausages recently?"

In the past, there was a lot of fish and meat every day, but in recent days, although there is also meat, it is not a pure hard dish.

"It's good to have something to eat, and you still have to pick and choose?"

Zhou Shuqing vaguely guessed something, scolded the little goldfish, and then asked Ding Qiunan about the school curiously.

It's a bit stiff to change the subject, but it's better than dwelling on it all the time.

glanced at the second sister, Zhou Jimin's heart warmed slightly, and he didn't take care of the little goldfish, and ate by himself.

After dinner, Zhou Jimin sent Ding Qiunan home as usual.

He didn't return until near her compound.

"Nan Nan is back? Is it meat from your boyfriend again? ”

"Yes, auntie, you haven't slept so late?"

After a few polite words with the neighbors, Ding Qiunan also walked to her house, her mother just opened the door, and when she saw the meat in her hand, not only did she not smile, but frowned and asked, why do you always let Jimin buy meat? Won't you stop him?

Ding Qiunan: "........"

The heart said, if I can stop it, do I need you to say it?

In the house, the rest of the Ding family also had similar meanings to her mother.

was always fed by Zhou Jimin, and the Ding family was always very embarrassed, so they said this about Ding Qiunan.

But Ding Qiunan really couldn't help it, otherwise she wouldn't have run to Zhou Jimin's house often, because when she went back to her parents' house, she was always looked down upon.
