Chapter 73 Homework
Jiang’s mother smiled and said: “Later I went to see her, and her little body was straight and straight, her little face was so serious, and everyone rushed to raise their hands for every question. I just feel that the students in the county primary school are different..."
"Auntie, please stop talking..." Zhou Zhi was so ashamed that he wished he had He squeezed in through the cracks and said, dumbfounded: "It's all just pretending. It's vanity. I want to show off and trick the teacher into praising me..."
"No, Shu Yi..."
< br>"Mom!" Jiang Shuyi's face showed a bit of annoyance: "Zhou Zhi is going to be angry!"
"No more, no more..." Mother Jiang finally regained her composure: "But I'm not wrong. Look, now, people are on TV, and novels are also in magazines."
< br>Jiang Shuyi then took out two magazines from her schoolbag: "These two magazines, I brought it back, mom, look here!"
Jiang Ma looked up and looked at Zhou Zhi with a smile: "It's really good."
"It's time to eat. Shu Yi closes the table and gets the chopsticks," Father Jiang shouted from the kitchen.
"Let's go together." Zhou Zhi also stood up quickly. He couldn't bear the look in Jiang Ma's eyes.
I don’t know what Jiang Shuyi’s parents usually eat, but this meal on Friday night was really delicious.
Du Yufen gave one of the duck wings and duck legs to Zhou Zhi and Jiang Shuyi: "You should eat more twice-cooked pork, otherwise you will end up eating too much of the trendy stuff!"
After dinner, Zhou Zhi said goodbye: "Thank you, uncle and aunt, Then we are going to the aunt’s house.”
Jiang Shuyi picked up her schoolbag: “Dad, Mom! I’m going to Teacher Su’s house to do my homework!”
Ah, Zhou Zhi. I didn't even plan to do homework tonight, and I was just going to play with my fourth child.
"Go ahead and ask Zhou Zhi if you don't understand. Now that you are in high school and your parents can't help you, you have to work harder, you know?"
Jiang's mother didn't seem to have thought about it at all. On weekend nights, children should be allowed to watch TV to relax or something.
"Goodbye, uncle and auntie." Zhou Zhi had no choice but to keep his lament in his heart.
The two of them carried their schoolbags, walked up the stone stairs and walked up the slope, and entered the school through the back door.
The teaching building of the Central School is a large building. The top of the building is not a rooftop, but an enlarged green tile roof.
The eaves under the tile roof are sealed with wooden strips, but the gaps are large and many are broken.
So it became a paradise for sparrows. There were straws falling out from the gaps between the wooden bars, which were picked up by the sparrows.
Now is the time for the birds to return to their nests, and the top of the whole building is chirping loudly.
But in normal times, the naughty children will be even more noisy than them in the morning, evening and between classes.
The teachers’ dormitory is still a wooden building. After walking around a small garden, you enter the entrance of the wooden building.
The wooden building has two floors, with a row of dormitories at the bottom and a row of dormitories above. There is a large room at the entrance of the stairs, which is the school kitchen.
Enter the cafeteria and go up the wooden stairs to the second floor. The maiden lives in the largest room that no one wants.
Why is the room so big but no one wants it? The reason is simple, because downstairs is the kitchen.
A small sign "Home of the Martyrs" is nailed outside the big room.
The eldest uncle died on the border, leaving only one son. The eldest lady never remarried and raised the child alone.
The eldest lady's character is quiet, kind, and loves children.
If the eldest lady had not taken the children of the fifth uncle's family from the countryside and arranged them to go to school, their fate would not have been changed.
Even if the third sister is now in Jiachuan, the eldest lady still has to pay monthly alimony.
Push the wooden door open: "Ma'am, I'm here!"
"Elbow!" A boy about the same age as Zhou Zhi ran bang bang bang from the small room separated from the inside. come out.
The sound from the wooden floor was extremely loud: "I thought you and sister would arrive tomorrow...uh...Jiang...Shuyi?"
Jiang Shuyi is one or two of the few in Central School who can take the exam Those who went to Jiachuan Middle School had grades at the central school, which was He Yongmei's level at Jiachuan Middle School.
In addition, she is beautiful, and in the hearts of the children in the central school, her status is almost that of a goddess, and everyone knows her.
"Did you call me Shu Yi? Su Datou, you call me sister!"
"...Sister..." The fourth child's face suddenly turned red.
The fourth child, Su Ziqiao, is the younger brother of the third sister. He has a big head, so Zhou Zhi nicknamed him Big Tou.
“Where is the eldest lady?” Zhou Zhi asked.
The fourth child still couldn't react from the trance of the goddess descending to earth: "Inside..."
Zhou Zhi smiled at Jiang Shuyi and said, "You should know each other, right?"< br>
“We know Su Ziqiao, I grew up in Mr. Su’s family.”
"Then no introduction is needed." Zhou Zhi said, "He may be in Jiachuan next year."
The three of them entered the room together, and the eldest lady was making shoes.
"Madam." "Teacher Su." Zhou Zhi and Jiang Shuyi greeted the eldest lady together.
"Shu Yi? Why are you here with Zhou Zhi? Have you eaten?" The eldest lady put down her work: "I'll cook a bowl of noodles for you..." "No, Teacher Su." Jiang Shuyi smiled and said: "Zhou Zhi had dinner at our house."
"We are classmates now, Shu Yi will sit behind me." Zhou Zhi smiled and took out a small thing from his schoolbag: "Ma'am, this is for you, one for you and grandma."
"Yo , lotus thimble, this thing is rare now.” The maid smiled and said: "Thank you, then I will make lotus root starch for you."
"Thank you, Teacher Su."
Lotus root starch is not necessarily the real lotus root starch, sometimes it is arrowroot starch. Sometimes it’s rice flour, but the kids love it.
In addition to lotus root starch, there are also fried noodles, which are similar to black sesame paste, but Zhou Zhi thinks it is more fragrant than black sesame paste.
The eldest lady is particularly doting on the children.
While Madam was busy, Zhou Zhi and Jiang Shuyi opened their schoolbags and were about to start doing homework. Zhou Zhi thought of a question: "Madam, are the Shaohuo slices I fished out last year still alive?"
"Alive and looking good." The fourth child smiled.
Shaohuochi is a betta fish, and its ability to withstand hypoxia is quite good. Zhou Zhi and Lao Si caught a lot of them in the ditch next to the field last year. There is a rockery basin here. I heard that mosquitoes are likely to grow in summer. I picked the one with the prettiest hair color and put it in.
“What is Shaohuo Film?” Jiang Shuyi was very curious.
"Come." Zhou Zhi brought Jiang Shuyi to the rockery basin on the window sill: "There is a fish in the crack of the stone. We will see it after a while."
It didn't take a while. The two of them just walked over On the window sill, under the residual light of the indoor electric light, a fish swam out from the bottom of the rockery.
“This fish is really beautiful. Is it a tropical fish?”
“No, it is common in the fields. It is called Shaohuo Pianer in Jiachuan, and its scientific name is Douyu.”
“Why does it come out as soon as we get closer?”
"It must have been domesticated. It seems that the eldest lady often feeds it." Zhou Zhi turned around and said: "Big aunt, what does this fish eat?"
"Sandworms, the big head catches them."
Sandworms are the larvae of mosquitoes.
"What about winter?"
"Sandworms can be dried by roasting." The eldest lady came over with a large bowl of lotus root starch and three small bowls: "Here, let's eat lotus root starch."
"Then this fish is so lucky!" Zhou Zhi exclaimed: "It is so carefully raised!"
"It has only one life!"
"Teacher Su, where is Brother Su?" ?" Jiang Shuyi suddenly realized that it would be impolite not to greet Teacher Su's son.
"My eldest cousin works as an electrician at Tianhua Company. They work three shifts, and he must be working the night shift today." Zhou Zhi knew better, so he didn't even ask before.
"Eat lotus root powder, eat lotus root powder..." The fourth child saw the osmanthus candy floating on the lotus root powder and was already greedy.
"Shuyi, are you still adapting to Jiachuan Middle School?" The eldest lady, who is also Jiang Shuyi's old head teacher, can't help but be concerned.
"It's good, but the courses are a bit difficult, and this semester will be even more difficult."
"Zhou Zhi, you should learn from Shu Yi." The eldest lady picked up her cloth shoes and continued walking. , hit the nail on the head: "I have read your two essays and interviews, and I feel that you have indeed undergone some changes, but you rely more on talent than hard work."
"You know Central school entrance exam How difficult is it to go to Sichuan Middle School? When you were in elementary school, you were Shu Yi's role model, but now she should be your role model."
"Teacher Su!" Jiang Shuyi blushed with embarrassment. : "It's great to study carefully! He had surgery last semester and didn't take the final exam, but after starting the semester, he ranked first in the liberal arts in the grade, beating second place by more than 30 points! He is still my role model now. ! ”
The eldest lady did not immediately care about Zhou Zhi's minor surgery, nor did she talk about Zhou Zhi's grades: "I am referring to the attitude towards study, not to mention anything else. When Zhou Zhi came to my place on weekends before, when did Zhou Zhi do his homework in advance?"
“Today is different. Needless to say, it’s because of your role model as Shu Yi.”
"Huh?" Jiang Shuyi was really stupid now: "Zhou Zhi, don't you do your homework on Friday night?"
"You have to do it now." Zhou Zhi pretended to be stupid: "Big You are right, I have to learn from you in this regard.”
After eating the lotus root noodles, the three of them started doing homework on the round table.
The homework at the central school was the easiest, but the fourth child was still scratching his head.
Zhou Zhi actually has very little homework, because he has done all the Chinese and Mathematics papers in class from Monday to Friday, so he does not have to do the homework assigned by the teacher in these three subjects until the evening.
Nowadays, Chinese and foreign languages can be completed in about one class, which means that all parts except composition can be completed in forty-five minutes. All that's left is to read the mathematics notes of the number one student. The mathematics test papers for the first year of high school can be completed in one class. The remaining time is mainly to study the test questions for the second and third years of high school.
After Ning Kaijiang gave Zhou Zhi two small lessons, he found that Zhou Zhi was also at an above-average level in mathematics in the third year of high school, so he simply skipped his homework and assigned it to decryption papers instead. Ask a question carefully.
In this way, we not only reduce our own workload, but also allow students to get real exercise.
For self-disciplined students, this method is actually more effective than assigning homework requirements. As a result, Zhou Zhi has a lot of time to make up for his own academic shortcomings.
So there was only one Chinese composition left on the weekend, two geography and history homework assignments for the third year of high school, and a few math questions that Ning Kaijiang had picked out for Zhou Zhi to revise.
Jiang Shu was struggling with his homework. He accidentally looked up and found Zhou Zhi holding his chin with his left hand and looking at her dreamily.
"Zhou Zhi..." Jiang Shuyi's face turned red: "Are you... done?"
