Volume 1: Student Life Chapter 51: What is the first day of the new year like, and what is the whole year like?
When Chen Zhou returned to the house, he saw his parents and his uncle and aunt playing mahjong.
This is also a regular entertainment activity on New Year’s Eve every year, and sometimes people also play poker.
If grandpa and grandma are interested, we can add my uncle and aunt and set up two tables.
However, I guess that won’t work this year.
Well, grandpa and grandma are watching the Spring Festival Gala, and I don’t know what my uncle and aunt are doing...
"Mom and Dad, I'm going back to my room. Call me if you need anything." Chen Zhou poured tea for the four mahjong characters, took the melon seeds and peanuts, and went back to his room.
Chen Zhou was sitting at his desk, wondering whether to study first or do exercises first, when his cell phone rang.
I picked up my phone and saw a lot of messages.
Chen Zhou swiped up and down, found [Yang Yiyi], and clicked on it first.
Yang Yiyi: Happy New Year. Let me guess, are you reading a book?
Chen Zhou looked at the information on the table somewhat awkwardly, poked his finger at the screen, and replied: No, absolutely not, at least not yet... um... Happy New Year.
After thinking about it, Chen Zhou added: Happy every day in the new year.
Then, I looked at the messages from other people, all of which were wishing them a happy new year.
Chen Zhou thought about it, edited a message "Happy New Year", and then sent it out to the group, adding a few teachers as well, as a way of wishing a happy new year.
After the message was sent, Chen Zhou opened the test paper and started doing the questions.
After a while, the phone rang again.
Chen Zhou picked it up and saw that it was not a message from Yang Yiyi, but from Huang Jiayi, asking him what his plans were for the winter vacation and whether he had time to get together.
Chen Zhou quickly typed two words [No] and clicked send.
I wondered what was wrong with this guy? He didn't watch the Spring Festival Gala on New Year's Eve? He didn't spend time with his family? He didn't spend time with his girlfriend?
Even if you don't accompany me, it can't affect my studies!
After thinking about it, Chen Zhou felt that it was inappropriate, so he added Huang Jiayi to the blacklist, directly banning this person from any possible chattering.
After that, Chen Zhou continued to do the test paper intermittently. His cell phone rang from time to time, with the sound of new messages.
However, he only glanced at them and didn't see any messages he wanted to reply to, so he decided not to reply to any of them.
Slowly, the phone also became quiet.
Chen Zhou took a sip of mental potion and began to concentrate on the test paper.
A paper is completed.
A set of papers has been completed.
The time slowly came to 11:30, and in half an hour it would be the new year.
Chen Zhou stood up and prepared to go out for some midnight snack.
Outside, the mahjong quartet was still fighting.
Grandpa and grandma have gone to bed, and only a few children are left in front of the TV preparing for the New Year's Eve.
Chen Zhou found some food for himself, and gave the four mahjong players some peanuts and sunflower seeds. He then poured tea and reminded them not to play too late.
I looked at my younger brothers and sisters again, thought about it, and decided not to worry about them. Since they are young, it’s okay for them to stay up late.
Then he returned to himself again and prepared to fight.
As the saying goes, what the first day of the New Year is like, the whole year will be like that.
Chen Zhou decided to start studying hard from the first second of the new year.
However, he was still delayed for a while when he saw the message on his phone.
Yang Yiyi replied to his message.
Yang Yiyi: Well, you are happy every day. It will be the new year soon. Do you have any wishes?
Chen Zhou thought about it and just replied: Get into a good university...
After a while, Yang Yiyi sent another message: Let’s work hard together and get into a good university.
Chen Zhou was thinking about how to respond when Yang Yiyi sent another message: Do you have fireworks? I haven't seen fireworks for a long time, and now they are not allowed to be set off...
Chen Zhou: Yes, we set off fireworks every year during the Spring Festival in our small county. I think there will be some at midnight later.
The message was sent at exactly midnight.
Chen Zhou walked to the window and heard the sound of fireworks exploding in the sky outside.
Taking out his mobile phone, Chen Zhou recorded a video of fireworks and sent it to Yang Yiyi.
Yang Yiyi immediately replied: Wow, so beautiful... I really want to see it...
Chen Zhou took another video of the fireworks and sent it over.
Then he replied: "These fireworks should last for a while, I'll take some more videos for you to see." However, you can only watch the videos, you can't set them off.
After sending the video, Chen Zhou continued to shoot a few videos and sent them to Yang Yiyi.
However, I only saw the message he sent, but never received a reply from Yang Yiyi.
Chen Zhou waited for a while, then edited a message [How is it? Is it a nice photo?] and sent it.
Yang Yiyi responded to this message quite quickly, but with only one word: Yeah.
Chen Zhou closed the window with a smile, returned to the table and prepared to get down to work.
He changed to a new set of papers and continued to practice questions.
The best time to practice questions is late at night when everyone is asleep!
It was not until after 3 a.m. that Chen Zhou closed the paper and climbed into bed to sleep.
You must not sleep in on the first day of the New Year.
Chen Zhou got up on time at eight o'clock, got dressed and washed.
It is very comfortable to eat a bowl of hot dumplings.
Dumplings are made early in the morning, which is also the custom. Dumplings are the first meal on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year.
It means the alternation of the old and the new, and implies happy reunion, good luck and prosperity.
In some places, coins are wrapped in dumplings, and whoever eats them will have great wealth in the coming year.
After eating the dumplings, Chen Zhou walked back and forth to digest the food, then went back to the house.
We don’t visit relatives on the first day of the New Year, so it seems that there is nothing else to do except studying.
In the past two days, Chen Zhou has finished a lot of the small papers distributed by the teacher, and there are about four or five sets left.
He planned to hurry up and solve all of them, and then start trying to complete the hidden tasks.
Seeing that there were still 5 cans and one third of a can of psychiatric medicine left, Chen Zhou felt a little distressed. These were all good stuff.
It is a real consumable. The more you use it, the less it will be. When it’s used up, it’s gone.
Chen Zhou took another sip with a heartache and quickly buried his head in doing the questions.
As soon as the excitement of this bite is over, take another one immediately.
It was not until his mother called him to eat at noon that Chen Zhou came away from the world of questions.
Go out, wash hands, serve rice, pick up dishes, and eat.
Fifteen minutes to resolve the battle.
Because he was so absorbed in his work, he didn't notice that it was time for dinner, but the effect of the psychic potion was still there.
If the whole family hadn't been there, he would have finished eating in about five minutes.
Now, every second of delay means the drug loses its , and Chen Zhou feels heartbroken.
"I'm done eating, you guys take your time, I'm going back to the house first."
Chen Zhou said something, trotted to take the bowl into the kitchen, and then went straight into his room.
The whole family looked at him in surprise, exchanged glances with each other, and became a little worried.
Could this be a case of obsession? By the way, can studying be an obsession?
Chen Zhou's uncle was particularly surprised, but he was thinking in his mind: "Is this kid really studying? Or has he found some new game?"
Chen Zhou didn't care about all that. He walked to the desk in two steps, pulled the chair and sat down.
There was only a little bit of the one-third potion left in the jar. Thinking that no one would bother him again, he tilted his head back and drank it all.
It takes three seconds to get into the state and start writing quickly.
