Chapter 80 Little Red Dates
Sitting in the dining room is an emaciated figure in a gray hood who sits at a long table with a box full of red dates on his left hand side and a few notebooks on the table. Next to the figure was a 16-year-old girl with long pigtails and a particularly petite figure, who was sitting opposite the hooded boy with her chin in her hands, her head down, listening carefully to what the figure was explaining.
Needless to say, the hooded figure was Wei Wenlong, and the girl who looked two or three years younger than Wei Wenlong looked like the daughter of the owner of this shop. Because I've seen her in this shop help her dad in the delicatessen business wipe the table and serve the dishes, or help collect money when it's crowded.
To be honest, in the class, I can communicate normally is Wei Wenlong. The two of us can have a lot in common in many ways, so I always see Wei Wenlong in a different way than others. Now I saw that he was teaching the girl opposite with a pen, and I was suddenly a little interested.
I asked the restaurateur as I ordered:
"Does that person come here for dinner often?"
Hearing my question, the restaurant owner was stunned for a moment, then smiled:
"yes. Of course he comes a lot, he's my daughter's tutor. Do you know each other?"
"Wei Wenlong is my classmate. I said with a smile.
"Oh, that's right. That's a coincidence. Wei Wenlong's grades are very good in your class, right?" said the shopkeeper with some smugness.
"yes, very good. First in the class. I laughed.
"Ouch, that's better than I thought. He is not an ordinary smart person, once my store business is good, dozens of people came at once, everyone ordered different, I forgot, he is not bad all to report, it is like memorizing the text, I admire it. If only my daughter were half as smart as he was. ”
"Yes. I smiled and asked, "Isn't it cheap to ask him to be a tutor?"
Who would have thought that the shopkeeper shook his head and said happily: "That's not it." This man doesn't seem to talk much, but he has a very good heart. I asked him to be my daughter's tutor, and I forced him to give him money, but he didn't accept it, just said that he would come to my store every day to eat for free. I was amazed. Wei Wenlong's tutoring effect is so good that my daughter was still at the bottom of the class in the first year of junior high school, and now she is about to take the high school entrance examination, and her grades have reached the top ten in the class. It's all his work. ”
From the first year of junior high school to the third year of junior high school, I was a little puzzled when I heard this.
With Wei Wenlong's character of not being interested in women, would he be willing to tutor a girl from the first year of junior high school to the third year of junior high school?
"When your daughter was in her first year of junior high school, Wei Wenlong was a sophomore in high school, right?"
"Yes...... Yes. The shopkeeper thought for a moment and said.
I remember that Wei Wenlong is one year older than me, he has been graded, is it possible, the reason why this guy repeats a grade is for this little girl?
I calmed down, hesitated a little, and then walked into the restaurant and slowly approached from behind Yu Wenlong.
"This question is very difficult, many students in the class can't do it!" said the little girl, kneeling on the stool opposite Wei Wenlong, pointing to the words in the homework book.
Wei Wenlong casually glanced at the direction the little girl was pointing, and said without thinking:
"It's a very basic question. There are three ways to solve it. With your knowledge of junior high school, triangle similarity is more suitable. But it's easier to use linear equations or quadratic partial derivatives......"
"The key you can't do is that you don't take into account the traction of the auxiliary line and set the two sides as unknowns, thinking that more unknowns will complicate the problem, in fact...... Huh?"
While Wei Wenlong was explaining, I slowly approached him from behind. However, Wei Wenlong's reaction was more sensitive than I thought, and just as I was five meters closer to him, he suddenly turned his head and looked at me fixedly with a pair of amber eyes.
"It's you. When Wei Wenlong saw me, his eyes quickly changed to calm, and then he turned his head.
"No wonder you never listened to Ma Qiong's math class, it turns out that you are already a more competent teacher than him. I smiled and approached Wei Wenlong from behind and said.
"......" Wei Wenlong didn't say a word, stuffed a red date into his mouth, and chewed slowly.
"Didn't you say you're not interested in women? Hehe. "When I approached Yu Wenlong, I suddenly said something. Hearing my words, Wei Wenlong's ears trembled slightly.
"You're thinking too much. "Wei Wenlong didn't look at me.
"Really?"
Wei Wenlong said: "Your words, the major premise is vague, the minor premise is wrong, and the conclusion is wrong. ”
"Oh?" my brow jumped.
Yu Wenlong said lightly:
"For one, the concept of a woman is broad. And she is just a girl, and in my eyes she can't be classified as a woman. Second, I'm not interested, I just have time to do some extra money. ”
"Ah, Brother Wenlong, what are you talking about?!Why do you say I'm not a woman?" The girl sitting opposite Yu Wenlong frowned when she heard Yu Wenlong's words.
Hearing the little girl's words, Yu Wenlong was stunned, turned his head, and said with a somewhat evasive look in his eyes:
"No, no, you're mistaken about Mengxin...... I, uh, didn't mean that. ”
"What do you mean? Why do you say I'm not a woman?" asked the girl, a little stubborn and curious.
Wei Wenlong said with some hesitation: "The woman I am talking about is not the woman you said. You misunderstood......"
"Which woman is that? Are there many kinds of women?" The girl seemed to be quite simple and simple, and she didn't understand the deep meaning of Yu Wenlong's words, so she grabbed Yu Wenlong's ears and didn't let go.
"Uh......" Wei Wenlong didn't know how to answer, and the first time I saw his face that was always indifferent and bored, I couldn't help but laugh in my heart: Who told you to casually change the concept of collective terms?
"Hey, you mean Brother Wenlong, where am I not a woman?" you say!" The girl named Mengxin pulled the wrinkles of Yu Wenlong's clothes and kept asking.
Yu Wenlong coughed lightly and said:
"It's really nothing. ”
"No, you tell me!"
"Really...... It's nothing. ”
"Say it quickly!" the girl urged with a smile, and Wei Wenlong turned his face to me with a dissatisfied look a little helplessly, I laughed and didn't say anything.
At this time, the owner of the shop also came over with the cooked food that I had packed in a plastic bag, and I stepped forward, took the cooked food, and was about to pay, but found that the amount of food in the bag seemed to be more than before.
"Boss, this meal seems to be a little bit more, right? I didn't want so much? I didn't order two other dishes, this is ......."
The shopkeeper smiled kindly and said to me, "I gave it to you, you can take it." ”
I still know the truth of reactive action, I frowned, and asked, "Hehe, the boss is so polite?"
The shopkeeper smiled a little wryly and said, "I see that you have a very good relationship with Wenlong, so it can be regarded as a favor." Besides, in a week, our store will be closed. There aren't many days left for business. ”
My heart shook slightly, this store is closing?
"What's wrong?" I asked.
The shopkeeper shook his head with a wry smile and said: "It's not a matter of renting places, the shops in this area of this street are all separated from the dormitory building of Chengnan High School, and they are all under the management of the school. You can't afford to pay that expensive rent. If we didn't pay the rent, the school sent someone to chase us away. At most, our store will close in a week. ”
Speaking of this, the boss showed a lonely but helpless expression.
I frowned. Indeed, these restaurants at the school gate are basically separated from the school dormitory building, and they need to pay a certain rent fee to the school to continue to operate, and if they do not pay the fee, then the school can force the store to close.
The school's increase in rental fees may have less impact on some large supermarkets and hotels, and the most unfortunate are those small restaurants with relatively poor business, which are originally small businesses, and their income is not enough, and then raising the rental fee will directly jeopardize their operation.
To put it bluntly, this is a good thing for the school.
The school even wishes that the store in front of the school will go out of business, because if the store outside closes, the students will have to eat in the cafeteria, which in turn will increase the school's income...... In short, no matter what, for the school institution that integrates catering and teaching, it will always be the ultimate profiteering.
