Chapter 67 Farewell
Zhou Zhi had a very contradictory mentality towards Zhang Xinyi, which was completely different from the feeling when facing Guan Tingting and Feng Xueshan, and he was a little awe-inspiring.
And Zhang Xinyi never showed enthusiasm in front of Zhou Zhi, and Zhou Zhi never felt that she liked him.
The two of them are more like ordinary friends who have to meet frequently because of their parents' relationship. However, what is a little different from ordinary friends is that if Zhang Xinyi makes any request to Zhou Zhi, Zhou Zhi will never refuse. , will agree immediately.
There is a kind of caution between the two people, as if they are treating a distinguished guest.
After his rebirth, Zhou Zhi gained a lot of experience. When he saw Zhang Xinyi again today, he suddenly thought of a question.
In his previous life, Zhang Xinyi had never called him by his nickname.
Zhou Zhi has always had two completely different attitudes towards women who call him by his nickname and women who call him by his correct name.
For example, just now, when he was telling a story, Zhang Xinyi just listened quietly, obviously very interested. But if it were those friends who called him by their nicknames, such as Xiong Jiao, Feng Xueshan and the others, they would probably I couldn't help but ask questions a long time ago.
How strange...
Thinking of this, Zhou Zhi couldn't help but feel a little frustrated: "Forget it, I came here today because I actually wanted to ask about the course progress of the liberal arts class. The emphasis of class one and class two must be different."
If it were done differently. He Yongmei, you should give Zhou Zhi a roll of your eyes now, and then criticize him for starting school the day after tomorrow. Isn't it a little late for you to ask today?
But Zhang Xinyi just nodded: "Then let's eat quickly."
The meal was simple, and only three bowls needed to be washed after finishing the meal. Zhang Ziyuan was still a little unhappy when handing over the bowls. : "Brother Elbow, there is obviously braised pork."
Zhou Zhi smiled and said: "It was done in a hurry. You have to wait for it to taste better. It will taste better at night."
Zhang Ziyuan turned on the TV: "School is about to start the day after tomorrow. I want to watch TV as soon as possible."
Zhang Xinyi said: "Zhou Zhi, let's go to the bedroom."
The bedroom has two small beds. , a desk basically fills up the room. Zhang Ziyuan is younger and is not so nervous about studying, so she does homework in her grandfather's room. This desk is used by Zhang Xinyi.
Zhang Xinyi took down the textbook on the desk: "Let's check the progress."
There was a large piece of glass on the desk with many photos pressed underneath. Zhou Zhi found one When I was a child: "When did this photo arrive at your home?"
It was a one-year-old baby, sitting naked in a wooden basin. Although no key parts were exposed, it still made Zhou Zhi feel embarrassed.
Zhang Xinyi finally smiled: "Your mother must have given it to my mother."
Zhou Zhi put his hand on his forehead: "The photos of you and Zi Wan when they were young are all in my family's photo album. Xin Yi, I find you are a bit bad. How can you behave in a liberal arts class?"
"What's wrong? Isn't it just a photo?"
"When your classmates come to your home, they will definitely ask, "Who is this kid?" Then you will definitely Said, this is Zhou Zhi from the second class, oh, it’s over now!”
Zhang Xinyi laughed even harder: "Who would be as boring as you and notice this."
"Really no one asked?"
"No, I said you were right. Not on the right track? ”
“ Right on the wrong track? , but you still have to put this photo away..."
The progress of the comparison was very fast. When it was finished, Zhang Xinyi said: "Zhou Zhi, I am actually very happy that you came to the first class. In the future, Chinese Someone asked about history.”
Zhou Zhi thought for a while and decided to express his thoughts: "Xinyi, I think we still need to use scientific methods to study. Even if it is liberal arts, we cannot memorize it by rote."
Zhang Xinyi is actually a little jealous of Zhou Zhi He is so smart, but also hates him for wasting his talent, and even hates Zhou Zhou's cunning. Hearing what he said, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed: "Have you always looked down on me? , You want to say that I am stupid?”
“Where are you thinking?” Zhou Zhi couldn’t laugh or cry: “I taught you table tennis and backgammon, and now you can overtake me. If you say you are stupid, that doesn’t mean I am better. Stupid?”
“Speaking of this, I would like to ask, do you usually practice secretly?”
Zhang Xinyi did not answer this question and just started to pack the books.
Zhou Zhi had no choice but to pack up his books: "Xin Yi, I still want to ask a question."
"Why do you have so many questions today?"
"Why do you never call me my little one?" Name?”
“This question The question is very strange. Is your nickname nice? "
"Yes." Zhou Zhi turned to look at Zhang Xinyi: "I am the one who calls me by my nickname. I feel cordial and feel that they are my true friends.”
"Xinyi, I want us to become true friends."
Zhang Xinyi lowered his head: "Zhou Zhi, I don't want to scream yet."
"That's okay, just don't scream. "Don't scream."
Zhang Xinyi raised his head: "Don't be angry."
"How could I be angry with you?"
Zhou Zhi in the previous life would have said the same thing, but his self-esteem might have been stabbed in his heart.
But now the mentality is different.
Those who like the two books written in my last life can read them over and over again and cannot put them down; those who don’t like them will still get scolded.
So asking everyone to have a certain attitude towards you is something that goes against common sense.
Zhou Zhi took out his math book and smiled: "Do you want to play backgammon?"
"Yeah."
The two of them skillfully tore off the paper, laid it out, and started.
“Eh? Why don’t you draw a cross?”
“The cross is made in two strokes, one stroke in a circle. Why draw a cross since there is a red pen?”
>
“You are really lazy in everything.”
"This is not called laziness, this is called saving time scientifically." "..."
"Xin Yi?"
"It's not that I don't want to talk about science, I just don't want to Use science as an excuse to deceive yourself."
"..."
"Zhou Zhi, do you have any good friends in Class 1?"
"It's not the best, but there are a few seniors from Class 1 and Class 2. I'm also familiar with Lao Mu from your class... Anyway, I make friends very well. Come on! By the way, I still have to study in the evening.”
“Teacher Liu agrees?”
“I don’t know if Teacher Liu agrees, but Principal Zhao has already agreed.”
“You know how to blow!”
"Hey, I am a member of the Provincial Writers Association. Is it too much to ask for self-study last night?"
"Huh? That seems reasonable. My dad said that there are no members of the Provincial Writers Association in Jiachuan. , I feel quite proud... "
"Then you still have to be proud..."
"Blow again! ...Tell me about your trip."
"Okay. Let’s talk while playing chess.”
Still so inexplicable, the relationship between the two slowly returned to its normal state.
This chess game never ends in one go. The two of them played more than ten games, but Zhou Zhi still lost more than he won.
“How come you still haven’t made any progress?”
“That’s not possible, I think you’re progressing too fast... Oops, it’s almost five o’clock, I have to go home and cook quickly. Go!”
“Then I’ll give it to you.”
Zhou Zhi and Zhang Xinyi walked out of the bedroom and saw Zhang Ziyuan still reading "Journey to the West": "Ziyuan, I've been reading it all afternoon, it's almost done."
"You take care of me."
" Let’s go!”
"Goodbye, brother elbow!"
The two walked out of the Urban Development Bureau dormitory. There was a large forest of fragrant deer outside the dormitory. Zhou Zhi took a deep breath: "The air here smells so good."
Zhang Xinyi said: "Oh, my mother forgot to bring the cloth she prepared for grandma."
"It doesn't matter, next time, there are plenty at home anyway."
When we came to the edge of the forest, Zhou Zhi said: "Just stop here. You are still too polite to me."
Zhang Xinyi smiled and said: "Thank you for making us lunch. The braised pork...is delicious."
"This meal is even better at night. , Goodbye Xin Yi.”
"Goodbye, Zhou Zhi."
The next day is another day of separation, Xiong Jiao and Feng Xueshan are also leaving.
Xiong Jiao is a good baby, but Feng Xueshan was still lamenting that the vacation was too short even after getting in the car.
Xiong Jiao gave Fang Wenyu a box of cassettes that he had listened to. Hacken Li's "One Thousand and One Nights". Fang Wenyu thought that the classic song "Loss of Love" in it was the real purpose of Xiong Jiao's gift of the tape, and she was so happy. .
Zhou Zhi also gave Feng Xueshan a gift for the first time. He bought it in Shudu, a novel "The Thorn Birds" by Australian writer Colleen McCullough.
Although it was not the best translation of the 1998 novel, he felt that this book might suit the taste of Feng Xueshan, who liked to read Qiong's heart-wrenching novels.
Feng Xueshan opened the book and found that it was filled with foreign names. She frowned and said, "Then I'll get used to it."
Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "A good book is worth reading a thousand times. It's enough for you. It’s been a semester.”
After sending the two of them off, everyone was going home to prepare for the start of school. Yan Xiao hadn’t finished her homework yet, so she asked He Yongmei for help.
Yang He also has to report to the school. He is a dormitory student, one day earlier than the day student.
Fang Wenyu is a cadre, and she has to organize the dormitory students who have arrived to clean the classroom one day in advance every semester. Zhou Zhi has never participated in this matter before, so she thought about it and said, "It's okay to go back. I might as well go to school."
After arriving at the school, he accompanied Yang He to check in. When he saw Yang He buying meal tickets, Zhou Zhi remembered that he should buy them too.
After all, having dinner at school and then studying in the evening can save a lot of time on the road.
The meals in the school are very cheap, with meat and vegetables only costing 50 cents each. A dinner is basically only one yuan, and the portion is definitely enough.
So Zhou Zhi also paid 20 yuan to Yang He and asked him to help him buy it. He couldn't buy it himself. This was only qualified for students who live on campus.
The high school section of the school has three floors, and the first graders are on the ground floor. After buying the meal tickets, Zhou Zhi returned here and discovered a problem. Should I go to the second class to help, or should I go to the first class to help?
After thinking about it, I decided to go to Class 2 first.
"Zhou Zhi, are you here? Go fetch water. Where is Yang He?" Li Qiang, the study committee member of Class 2, also comes from Wanglong Township across the river. His grades are among the top in the class, and he is Hu Xuemei's seed player.
"He is making the bed and will be there in a moment."
"I saw you were on TV because you wrote an essay?" Liu Feng came over and said, "What? Can you show us some time?”
"Uh... another day. Do you have a lot of scrap newspapers? Let me fold a hat first."
My classmates from the township are very good at cleaning. After a while, Yang He also came and joined in the cleaning. In the team, Zhou Zhi was left to help his classmates twist the handkerchiefs on the windows.
