Chapter Ninety-Six: Flooding

Located in the south of the Yanyu River, Suzhou, there are many water lakes, so the air has been very humid, and it is the season of autumn and winter, and the temperature changes suddenly, so there is some fog today.

Heavy fog, there was a heavy fog today, and in this kind of weather, even the rickshaw drivers on the street have to struggle to identify the road so as not to hit pedestrians or small vendors' shops, and they will have to lose their wages for the day.

The sun was obscured by layers of clouds and mist, and the light could not penetrate at all, and the classroom of the fourth class of the first grade was a little dark.

It was not yet morning reading time, and there were only a dozen students sitting in the classroom, and a few students on duty were sweeping the floor.

There are already two of the trio in the back row by the window: Guo Chun and Bao Guowei, but Chen Jinhua is missing.

Although Chen Jinhua has been working at the dock to earn money recently, he always has to come early every morning to study, but today I don't know why I don't see him, which seems a bit abnormal.

"Li Tianyi! Can you turn on the lights? ”

Although the new school did not introduce slide teaching, it was finally electrified, and there was an electric light in each classroom.

A student shouted at his classmates sitting at the front door.

So the classmate named Li Tianyi stood up, twisted his neck, and ran to the front door and pressed the button.

When the student in the light red cotton jacket turned on the light, the classroom instantly lit up a lot.

"Smack!"

Guo Chun was snorting melon seeds at the moment, he looked at Bao Guowei, and a somewhat obscene smile appeared on his face:

"The music club is in Building 3, and I stopped by when I came to school this morning, and guess what? It's full of female classmates, and it seems that this club really didn't report the mistake. ”

The melon seeds in Guo Chun's mouth are "stunned" brand, and the packaging bags made of oiled paper are very exquisite, it is said that the small bag costs a dime, and the large bag costs three cents.

He brought a big bag today, which has been distributed to the surrounding classmates, and even a small handful has been stuffed in Chen Jinhua's desk hole.

Bao Guowei didn't reply, just opened the window, and the cool breeze with moisture outside blew on his face, and he suddenly felt a lot more energetic and a little comfortable.

An Shuzhen, who was also sitting by the back window, was reading a book at the moment, when she suddenly felt some biting cool breeze blowing from her back, which made her frown.

An Shuzhen looked back and found that the window was actually opened by Bao Guowei, and her originally "vicious" eyes suddenly changed.

She tightened the light blue cardigan on her body, took out the pink scarf from the hole in the table, and suddenly felt less cold.

……

"I'm afraid I won't have much time to participate in these club activities in the future."

After sitting on the chair and tidying up his clothes, Bao Guowei replied to Guo Chun's words.

Nowadays, participating in club activities is of little significance to Bao Guowei.

In the past, it may have been necessary to rely on club activities to make more friends, but now that it has gained a firm foothold, there is no need for this.

What's more, I have joined the school's advanced class, and the top priority is to build a good relationship with a few old teachers, and I am afraid that I will rarely have any leisure time to participate in these "low-end" activities in the future.

Hearing Bao Guowei's answer, Guo Chun knocked a melon seed with a "snap" again, and the melon seed shell spit on the ground casually, and was about to speak.

However, this action happened to be seen by a male classmate who was on duty this morning and was in charge of cleaning, so he walked over, frowned, and swept all the melon seed shells on the ground into the "dirt scraper" containing garbage with a broom, looked at Guo Chun, and cleared his throat:

"Guo Chun, can you not throw the melon seed shell to the ground, it's really annoying! It's a hard thing to clean, you know? And the instructor said that you can't bring these food into the classroom, why don't you obey it? ”

When Guo Chun heard the words of this duty student, he couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart, and he glanced up and down at this duty student:

Black winter cotton clothes, the materials are OK, but it is certainly not a foreign brand, at most it is worth four or five yuan, and the pants have nothing to say, just an ordinary autumn pants, three or four tatters, and the most important thing is that there is a black leather shoe on the foot that is not shiny enough, and even some stains.

Seeing the dress of this duty student, Guo Chun had a certain number in his heart, so he still went his own way and put the melon seeds in his hand into his mouth.

"Poof!" With a bang, Guo Chun also spit out the melon seed shell to the ground in front of this person.

It has been a while since the new school opened, and once people become familiar with the new environment, their true nature is easily exposed.

Moreover, Guo Chun's arithmetic test scored zero yesterday, and he was named by the instructor in public, so his face can be said to be completely lost, and he doesn't care much about his image in the class.

"You! What are you doing! You're not begging to beat! Ah......h

Guo Chun's actions can make this duty angry enough!

This student on duty couldn't even speak well at the moment, he put down the broom, rolled up his two sleeves, revealing a pair of fists that had been clenched, and looked at Guo Chun's eyes very unkindly, it seemed that Guo Chun would do it if he didn't give him a satisfactory explanation.

When Guo Chun saw him like this, he was inevitably a little scared in his heart, this big fist was probably uncomfortable when it hit someone! But his mouth is still unforgiving:

"What? Still want to get your hands dirty? I remember your name was Li Hongwei, right? If you don't get out, I'll shake someone and fuck you! The players of our Himalayan basketball team give you a fist one by one, I don't know if you can stand it? ”

When this classmate named Li Hongwei heard Guo Chun's words, he knew that this person was not easy to mess with, so he frowned again and left directly with a broom, thinking that he would go to Mr. Shen to complain about it later.

Guo Chun dismissed the student on duty in a few words, and he was obviously a little proud of his performance just now: he leaned back the bench and leaned against the back wall of the classroom.

Guo Chun didn't seem to be satisfied with his current image, he tidied up his Pailemon collar again, crossed Erlang's legs, looked at Bao Guowei, and still had a smile on his face:

"Bao Liujia, why don't you go to club activities? What's going on? ”

"I'm in the progressive class now, and even the weekend time is full, so I can go there if I have time."

However, Bao Guowei didn't bother to glance at Guo Chun, just answering Guo Chun's question while taking out a book in the hole in the table.

Before Guo Chun could speak, An Shuzhen, who was sitting in front, heard Bao Guowei's words, turned her head, blinked her eyes, and her big eyes revealed some doubts:

"Pack Six...... Bao Guowei, progressive class? Could it be that you weren't there all morning yesterday, and you were in the progress class? ”

An Shuzhen didn't forget to pluck her sideburns when she spoke.

She has grown long hair lately, and the hair that was originally coiled up has been doubled, and it has doubled down a few centimeters above her shoulders, like a waterfall sprinkled on a pale blue woolen sweater, which looks much better than before.

Today she seems to have put some makeup on her face, at least Bao Guowei can see that she has put on lipstick: her lips are obviously much redder than before, probably the result of some unskilled makeup skills, the color of the lipstick is too bright, and it doesn't match the whole face.

"Ah, it's not that I'm in class, it's just that the school selects some students with good grades to enter the advanced class, and yesterday morning I just went to the director's office to do some test papers, and the specific quota hasn't been decided yet."

Bao Guowei resisted the desire to complain a few words, and replied seriously.

"How many people were in there?"

An Shuzhen looked at Guowei, asked again, and stroked her sideburns again.

"If we are in the first grade, it seems that there are 11 people in total, and not all of them may be able to enter after this assessment......

An Shuzhen's school ranking in this weekly test is more than 20, unless she can enter the top ten in the next monthly exam, I am afraid that she will not have a chance to be in the advanced class.

Guo Chun looked at An Shuzhen, and suddenly wanted to laugh:

"An Shuzhen, if you do well in the exam, maybe you can go to the advanced class with Bao Guowei next time?"

……

Bao Guowei's desk is very messy, probably born with a young master, he has never liked to tidy things up personally, when he used to live in the old house of the Bao family, the things at home have always been the old bag is tidying up, after moving to the west of the city, it will be cleaned up by the servant.

After the start of school, the school not only distributed many books, but also printed syllabus exam papers every day, sometimes more than a dozen a day, until now, Bao Guowei's desk has been a mess:

In addition to books and test papers, there are also oily paper packages and snacks mixed in, and if you smell it carefully, you can vaguely smell some bad smells from inside.

As is customary, Bao Guowei had to move through the scattered table holes for a few minutes before he could find the book he wanted to study today.

It's just that something seems to be wrong in today's desk, and Bao Guowei found a few letters in it as he dug it out - just like last time, the colorful letters were very beautifully packaged.

Even Guo Chun didn't know about the fact that someone in Bao Guowei's desk was sending letters, and it seemed that these love letters were sent in a very hidden time period, or when no one was around.

However, I was not persuaded to quit by Bao Guowei's messy table, and it was really difficult for these female classmates.

Bao Guowei could naturally guess what it was, speaking of which, the letter he found on the table last time was still the last time.

At that time, the letters on the table were given by the captain of the Everest team, to the effect that he was asked to change jobs, but Bao Guowei did not agree.

But this time - I guess it's for real.

There is no doubt that with the blessing of Paromon, Si Stankang, and gold-wire glasses, coupled with this good-looking face, Bao Guowei's appearance looks very good.

Even in a provincial middle school, or even in Shanghai, this dress is extremely fashionable.

In addition, Bao Guowei scored close to full marks in this weekly test, and it is normal to be welcomed by female students.

After taking out the letters, Bao Guowei raised his head and looked at the alarm clock on the blackboard: 6:45.

There is still a period of time before the start of the morning reading time, and Instructor Shen is estimated not to come to the class in a short time, which is a relatively safe time period.

So Bao Guowei lowered his head, with some curiosity in his heart, and selected a red one from four or five letters to open and take a look:

"Bao Guowei, hello, my name is Wang Xiaocui, when I saw you on the road that day, I thought that you - I didn't expect you to be not only handsome - but also took the first place in the school, I ......"

The second was a yellow letter, the thickness of which was clearly wrong, as if something was in it.

As soon as Bao Guowei opened it, he saw that there was a banknote inside, and it was a ten-yuan banknote.

"Bao Guowei, I'm Li Fang from Class 4, give you ten yuan, can you tutor me with homework in the future? It's okay if you don't agree, I just want to give you money......"

Third ...... Bao Guowei no longer had the heart to read the third letter, and he vigorously recalled the information of Li Fang's classmate in his mind:

is a little fat, about 1.6 meters tall, and her weight may be 148 pounds, if you talk about how Bao Guowei knows her weight, on the day the school organized the physical test, she stood in front of Bao Guowei......

Thinking of this, Bao Guowei silently stuffed the money back into the letter, and this matter must not be tainted with a trace of cause and effect!

"Alas...... What to do if it's too popular. ”

Bao Guowei only read two or three letters and had no desire to read them any more, he sorted out the letters and put them in the leather bag under the table to put them away.

It's only been a short time since school started, and I have received so many love letters, I'm afraid these letters will be indispensable in the future, Bao Guowei is thinking about whether to find a special bag to hold letters?

The bell for morning reading class has sounded, but Chen Jinhua still did not come to school.

……

Chen Jinhua walked on Chengxi Avenue, his mood was a little low.

At this time, I'm afraid the school cafeteria has closed, and I will definitely not be able to mix the free gruel this morning.

He had just finished his work at the North Wharf of Changmen, and he only felt a little tired and nauseous in his brain, and even had some trouble even recognizing the way.

He walked around the fog for a long time with a pair of tired lame legs, and finally found his way to the school, and only settled down on Chengxi Avenue.

Chen Jinhua felt a little uncomfortable all over his body today, and this uncomfortable feeling had a trend yesterday.

I don't know if it's because of the foggy weather, or if he's been too tired lately, but in short, he feels like he's smoking e-liquidβ€”it's stuffy, and as soon as he swallows his saliva, he feels a little pain in his throat.

The most terrible thing is that he still has some "itching" in his throat, and "itching" is not a good thing, which means...... In short, he can't, at least not now......

"Ahem, ahem!"

Chen Jinhua wanted to stop coughing, as if stopping coughing could show that he was not sick.

Yes, he is sick, a teenage student, not only has to seriously juggle his studies, but even has to do heavy labor on the docks, and it is in this cold day, it is strange not to get sick!

But now, Chen Jinhua can't even eat, can't even afford stationery, the cotton clothes are torn, and even have to show a hole, and he doesn't even have the money to patch it, and he even has to cover it to walk when he is at school.

And there is a mother at home who needs to be fed.

"Ahem, ahem! Ahem, cough, cough, cough! ”

Chen Jinhua thought about this, only to feel a wave of nausea in his brain, as if the world was spinning, and coughed up a mouthful of phlegm, and a lot of nauseous saliva came out of his throat.

The sky fell.
