Chapter 49: The Interlude of the Opening Ceremony

"Let's go, eat. How did you sing with Lan Lan in the afternoon? Hey, why are your clothes wet? Ye Yuping's sharp eyes found a piece of clothing on Lu Xusheng's chest.

"Oh, it's fine. Xiaolan accidentally poured water and spilled it on me, and it was already dry. Lu Xusheng said.

"Mom, is the house settled?" Lu Xusheng asked.

"Hmm~ Your dad is going to buy two sets, one for us to buy with a loan, and one with your name written on it to buy this house for a lump sum payment. We are going to buy this old house, but the money is not enough, so we just called your uncle to borrow some from them. Ye Yuping talked about buying a house in general.

"Mom, I don't need to. It's enough for you to buy your own house, and if I can afford to earn money to buy a house in the future, don't worry about me. Lu Xusheng is still very confident that he can get ahead in the future.

"Son, no matter what, your parents will buy you a house. In the future, if you have money and income, you will definitely not stay in this county, and giving you a house is also your roots in the county. Ye Yuping said.

"Xiaoping, don't tell your son about everything, this is our adult decision. All he had to do was accept it, come and eat. Lu Weizhong came out of the kitchen and said to the mother and son who were talking.

"Our son is so good and has his own ideas, do you think he will accept the arrangement we gave him so easily, I still hope that he can get out of his own way. Xiaosheng, don't worry about me and your dad buying a house. You just need to complete your studies with your heart, and if you want to go abroad for further study in the future, we will also support you. Ye Yuping looked at such an excellent Lu Xusheng in front of her, and actually had a plan in her heart, if Lu Xusheng couldn't use this house, then it would be good to sell it for tuition when he used the money to study abroad.

"Mom, it's still early in the future, eat." Lu Xusheng actually knew in his heart that if he wanted a better way out, there was no problem in going abroad with his own ability. If you really choose to major in architectural design, studying abroad is the best. But when she thought of Lin Weilan, she didn't dare to think about it, not to mention that the conditions at home didn't allow it. Even if you are sent by the state to study abroad, your family still needs to contribute a lot of money. Of course, everything is possible, and when she goes to college, she may be able to make some money by doing something on her own, and if Lin Weilan is willing, he can take her abroad, so Lu Xusheng has never been determined about his path, and his plan can't catch up with the changes, there are too many unknowns.

After the weekend, it will be the opening ceremony on Monday~

The night before, Lin Weilan was still a little worried about Lu Xusheng's opening speech on behalf of the new students the next day.

Lin Weilan lay on and turned over and over, so impatient.

"Xiaosheng, tomorrow's freshman speech, you have no problem." Lin Weilan sent a text message to Lu Xusheng.

"No problem, go to sleep. We'll see you tomorrow morning at the old place. Lu Xusheng was still at his desk looking at a book on architecture, "History of Chinese Architecture", written by Liang Sicheng.

"I can't sleep right now, what are you doing?"

"Reading, what do you think of me?"

"I miss you and I can't see you again, hey~ I still don't want to. I'm sleeping~ Good night, give me a Momoda. ”

"I'll see you tomorrow, good night and good dreams, aren't you?" After Lu Xusheng replied to the text message, he put down his phone and began to continue to study such a rather esoteric book word by word.

At the opening ceremony on the second day~

The host is Chu Fei's father Chu Yan, who had a conflict with Lu Xusheng on the basketball court that day, Chu Yan is a middle-aged man who looks serious, but no one would have imagined that the son he taught was so annoying. Chu Yan stood in the middle of the podium in a suit and leather shoes, took the microphone and began to read the opening words: "In the golden autumn of September, the golden chrysanthemum is in full bloom, the happy and fulfilling summer vacation is over, and the new semester is ushered in. On this cheerful and peaceful day, all the teachers and students of Castle Peak No. 1 High School gathered here for the first grand gathering of the semester: the opening ceremony. Next, we will first invite our principal Shen to give a speech to teachers and students, everyone is welcome," Chu Yan invited the new principal to give a speech after reading the opening speech.

There was a round of applause from the audience~

"Principal Shen? Why is this principal so similar to our homeroom teacher~ Could it be? Zhang Zhewei looked at Principal Shen on the stage who was not tall, but he looked very shrewd.

"Shh~ Don't speak, this is already a secret that is not a secret, you just found out." Meng Xichen, who was standing next to Zhang Zhewei, said mysteriously.

"At today's opening ceremony, one of the words I want to say most is "The world is a better place because of me". You must know that this is the latest school motto of Castle Peak No. 1 Middle School, and this is also the spiritual value that I have admired since taking office. The present world is a beautiful place, and we should feel more about the beauty of this vast world and be more grateful for the civilization created for us by our predecessors. I've come to this world, and while I enjoy this world, I should also add as much beauty as possible to this world. To make the world a better place, we need to enhance our awareness of five aspects. First, don't cause trouble to others. Second, be the best version of yourself. Fourth, take the initiative to take responsibility. Fifth, continuous improvement and innovation. (This opening speech is based on Xia Qingfeng (Principal of Beijing Middle School))

Principal Shen spoke for 15 minutes, but what Shen Kaikai said today was enough to encourage the students in the audience for a long time.

"Thank you very much President Shen for your wonderful opening speech, and everyone applauded again to see off our President Shen." Chu Yan came to the stage with a stiff smile and said, the reason why it was stiff was because no one said anything about Principal Shen's change of school motto, and no one informed him, so he changed it neatly.

After a round of applause~

"Then our school specially invited Mr. Ye Yanye, who was admitted to the Department of Finance of Xiamen University after graduating from the school and was sent by the state to study at the London School of Economics and Political Science in the United Kingdom, he also opened his own office in the UK as early as 2 years ago, and now he is going back to China to open another branch. Chu Yan said a little nervously, because Ye Yan was the best student he taught back then. This kid came to the school to see himself as soon as he came back, and Chu Yan was happy from the bottom of his heart.

"By the way, this senior Ye Yan is my former student, very good." Chu Yan added.

"Come to Ye Yan to share your success with your younger students." Chu Yan handed the microphone to Ye Yan.

Ye Yan took the microphone and nodded to Chu Yan, and then said with a smile: "Teacher Chu, you are too exalted to me, but I didn't expect to stand here today to say what I want to say next." First of all, I am very grateful to Castle Peak No. 1 Middle School for its kindness to my education, I just heard Principal Shen say the new school motto "The world is better because of me", I agree with this sentence, civilization is advancing with the times, then our school motto can no longer be like what I will do with morality, justice, benevolence, these are the minimum qualities we should have as a person, and our high school three years, in our best years, we should compete for the day, live up to the time. If you live a colorful high school life, the world will be a better place. I am not here today I will tell you about my own so-called methods of success, but what I hope is that you can live your own world, be the largest and most unique tree in your own world, stand up to the sky and dazzle, students don't waste your time, fight for your dreams! ”

After Ye Yan just finished saying this, the audience immediately burst into applause, and some people even shouted for it.

"Senior Ye, what you said is amazing."

"It's great"

"I didn't expect that the people who have studied here are just different, and they have instilled some fresh blood in us. Everyone gave our senior Ye Yan another warm applause. Chu Yan was already laughing from ear to ear at the moment, and he liked the student in front of him very much.

"Next, we have invited Lu Xusheng, a freshman representative from the first (first) class of high school, to give a speech to you." Chu Yan waited until the applause in the audience gradually became smaller.

At this time, Lu Xusheng, who came to the stage, and Ye Yan, who was about to step down, just passed by.

"Long time no see, Lu Xusheng." Ye Yan paused for 2 seconds when he walked by Lu Xusheng's side and said.

"Long time no see, cousin," Lu Xusheng also paused for a moment and whispered back.

"Hey~ Have you noticed that there is a bit of similarity between Senior Ye Yan and Lu Xusheng's eyebrows." Meng Xichen suddenly patted Lin Weilan in front of him and said.

"I found it, it's really a little similar. I just saw that they seemed to say hello to each other. It looks like I haven't seen you for a long time. Wait a minute, the senior's name is Ye Yan ~ Xiaosheng's mother's surname is Ye ~ His uncle's house is in Xiamen ~ Oh my God, isn't it a family recognition meeting today? Lin Weilan whispered to Meng Xichen behind her.

"If that's really the case, it seems that there is a genetic factor in IQ!" Meng Xichen said a little unwillingly.

"Hello everyone, I am Lu Xusheng from the first class of high school, today is the day of the opening ceremony of our class of 09 freshmen, and I am very happy to be able to speak for the ceremony on behalf of this class of freshmen. A thousand words are omitted here...... The door of high school career has been opened to us, and we must strive to seize the precious time, study hard, and live up to the three years. For ourselves, and for Tsingshan No. 1 Middle School to be proud of us, let's struggle, let's work hard. Thank you, that's the end of my message. Lu Xusheng spent 10 minutes and read the speech he wrote impassionedly.

At this time, there was another round of applause from the audience, as a freshman, Lu Xusheng did not say anything new ideas and concepts, and wrote a speech full of positive energy according to tradition. Because he just wants to be himself in a low-key manner, and he doesn't want to let others know his different ideas. Lu Xusheng knows very well what to do and what to say at each age. It's like Ye Yan can say something like that, but he can't.

"Let's say goodbye to Lu Xusheng, the speech just now is very exciting." Chu Yan was also very satisfied with Luxu Province's speech.

"Wait a minute, Lu Xusheng, you can't go down. Dean of Teaching, I have something to say, about Lu Xusheng! Chen Yujiao in the audience suddenly stopped Lu Xusheng and said to Chu Yan.

"What's the matter? Do you have to say it at the opening ceremony? Come to my office when it's over. Chu Yan glanced at Chen Yujiao and said impatiently.

"No~ I have to say this in front of the whole school today, because the Lu Xusheng you see is not what you think at all." Chen Yujiao had already run onto the stage and said to the principal, vice principal, and Chu Yan sitting on the stage.

"Oh my God, is this Chen Yujiao crazy? This is to put the deer to death. How could there be such a person in our class" Zhang Zhewei stared at Chen Yujiao on the stage, worried about what the other party wanted to do.

"What to do, what to do! Meng Xichen, Zhang Zhewei, you have a good relationship with Lu Xusheng, you can help him find a way. Lin Weilan's tears were about to come out at this moment.

"That's not right! Did Lu Xusheng do anything out of the ordinary? Meng Xichen asked Lin Weilan.

"There shouldn't be, if you fall in love, it's okay."
