Chapter 129: The Reward Is Too Excessive
As a watershed in the three years of junior high school.
In the second year of junior high school, everyone has undergone tremendous changes.
Physical appearance, personality and temperament...including grades.
Many top students in elementary school have found it difficult to reap the benefits of elementary school and have started to fail in exams again and again, being left behind by many people who were not as good as them in elementary school.
A large number of them have thus left the group of "good students".
Lack of intelligence, self-abandonment, love of play, boredom with studying... various reasons.
There is an alley next to the No. 3 Middle School, which is occupied by various snack stalls and various cram schools.
Xu Cheng and his friends don't go to cram school. On this street, the things they experience most are probably the shiny and fragrant roasted gluten, spicy and delicious starch sausage, stinky tofu, greedy biscuits, hot and sour noodles, multi-grain pancakes, egg-filled pancakes...
The taste is absolutely amazing and the food is very cheap. You will not leave until your mouth is greasy after eating it.
Xu Cheng remembers that after the street stall economy developed and the city appearance began to be improved, these snack stalls were cleared out, and it became difficult to eat food like this again.
Xu Jianghe will officially take up the position of chief engineer of Jing'an Communications after the new year.
With the help of Gao Manman, He Ying officially entered the official career and started working in the Jinghai Municipal Government Office.
It is worth mentioning that, relying on the savings over the years, my parents gritted their teeth and bought a new house in the city center, which is 120 square meters and the decoration process is very fast.
Xu Cheng continued to work hard to master the knowledge points in the first semester of his senior year.
At the same time, after 16 URL Navigation, he created the second website of his life - Hapi.com.
Yu Yu's submissions to comic magazines were rejected time and time again, but she kept trying, and her drawing skills were improving rapidly, visibly.
Most of the time, Lin Wanzhou went to and from school with Xu Cheng on bicycles.
In cold weather, she experienced falling down because of squeezing the brakes on her bike on the snow, having her bike chain fall off and Xu Cheng helping her fix it, and being too lazy to ride and asking Xu Cheng to take her...
The year 2005 passed in this way, ordinary yet extraordinary.
This year always gives people a very long feeling. After all, it has 913 days, which is 2.5 times that of other years.
Time passed unknowingly and it was the winter vacation of 2006. The traditional Spring Festival of Dragon Country brought this vacation to its climax and also announced that this vacation was coming to an end.
…
After a rain, the sky cleared up for a few days.
"Have you put on your long johns? Lin Wanzhou."
Gao Manman had a long New Year vacation and stayed at home for a few more days. The mother and daughter began to dislike each other again.
"I've put it on."
Lin Wanzhou replied hastily, then quickly shook off her slippers, put her feet wrapped in small white socks into her shoes, and ran downstairs without even having time to fasten the uppers.
What long johns to wear!
The weather is so beautiful, she wants to be a beautiful girl in the sunshine.
As soon as I went downstairs and felt the cold wind, I immediately regretted it.
She didn't dare go back and put it on again, so she had to bite the bullet and go downstairs to Xu Cheng's house.
Bombarded with messages on his cell phone asking "Where are you?" "Where are you?", Xu Cheng hurried downstairs.
Lin Wanzhou had been planning to teach him a lesson, but he had ended up having to wait for him downstairs in the cold wind for more than ten minutes.
At least let him use the warmest part of his body to warm her hands.
But he didn't look very well.
Lin Wanzhou clasped her hands in front of her lovely chest, tapping them rhythmically with her slender fingers, and her watery eyes glanced at the boy opposite her as if inadvertently.
"Why do you look so bad? Are you sick?"
"Oh, nothing. My stomach was a little upset this morning."
"uncomfortable?"
She laughed mercilessly, "You deserve it. You rewarded yourself last night. Now you've over-rewarded yourself."
The reward she was talking about was not some weird reward. It was an ice cream that Xu Cheng rewarded himself with after he finished memorizing the words.
"Um...reward?"
The gray-haired old man just happened to hear this. He looked Xu Cheng up and down carefully and smacked his lips.
"You're so young... this shouldn't happen..."
He shook his head, stroked his long white beard, and walked away with the bird cage, still singing in an opera tune.
"Youth knows nothing of value, and old age brings nothing but tears."
Xu Cheng's head was full of black lines.
The old man walking his bird is indeed not a serious person. He must be the kind of flirtatious old man who has to look at girls every day to feel happy.
He raised his hand and tapped Lin Wanzhou on the head, "Let's go, let's go, aren't we going to buy something?"
"Then help me put my phone in there. I don't have any pockets on my clothes."
"No pockets? Where do you keep your money?"
"Only a very small one..."
Lin Wanzhou lifted up the hem of her skirt and turned around to show Xu Cheng the small pocket on the butt of her jeans, which looked like it could only fit a few fingers.
This is terrible posture...
"Ahem, I get it."
Because the two families have a good relationship, they would set aside one day during the Chinese New Year every year to take turns hosting the other family and invite them to their home for a meal.
The process is probably eating and drinking, and then the adults play mahjong all night, while the children watch TV and sleep...
This year it was Lin Wanzhou's family's turn. She couldn't cook and couldn't help, so she could only run errands to help buy some groceries and prepare the dishes for dinner.
The two walked towards the gate of the community together, and Xu Cheng glanced at Lin Wanzhou out of the corner of his eye.
"Where are you going to buy your groceries, the market or the supermarket?"
She was wearing a white knitted jacket today, with a high-necked white sweater underneath, which made her skin look snow-white. Because the weather was too cold, only a few small fingers were exposed from the sleeves, and the collar covered her fair neck.
"Let's go to the market. It's so expensive to buy vegetables in the supermarket. Buy some vegetables in the market and see what else you want to buy. If you need anything, go to the supermarket again."
Xu Cheng thought it was troublesome. "I can just go to the supermarket and buy it. I have to run back and forth, and I can't save much money. I can only save one or two yuan at most."
Lin Wanzhou glared at him unhappily, "What's wrong with one or two yuan? It's not money."
What a spendthrift. If I save one dollar a day, I wonder how much money I can save for milk powder for my child.
" You don't even carefully. Whoever marries you in the future will be unlucky."
“…”
Xu Cheng felt tired. He was a reborn person who should have been a big shot in the business world, but here he was being scolded by a little girl.
It really lowers the average level of those who are reborn...
It had rained a few days ago, so the ground along the road was still a little damp, covered with moss and very dark in color.
Neither of them was very good at choosing vegetables, so they pretended to pick and choose in the market, picking up the good-looking ones.
She also bought a bar of Telford chocolate. Lin Wanzhou tore open the candy wrapper, broke off a piece and handed it to Xu Cheng.
“This chocolate is delicious.”
Xu Cheng took a glance, bent down, and put it into his mouth. The girl quickly patted his arm.
"Why did you eat it directly? I wasn't feeding it to you!"
"Then stretch out your hand." Xu Cheng said vaguely.
"do what?"
He made a gesture as if he was about to vomit, "I'll give it back to you."
"Pooh."
The girl spat lightly, "Shameless, hooligan..."
After walking around the market, they came out with a big bag in their hands.
Xu Cheng watched Lin Wanzhou transfer the bag back and forth between her left and right hands and knew that her hands were cold.
"If not, give it to me."
"No, I can carry it myself. It's not that heavy."
"That's what I'm talking about."
Xu Cheng grabbed her cold little hand and put it into his pocket.
"???"
The girl's eyes were wide open, her mind still not wrapping its head around what was happening.
The wind in my ears stopped, and the sweet flowed from the tips of my teeth to my throat...
Dripping on the tip of my heart...
