Chapter 459 Wu Family
"Mo Dou leads the way!" Mr. Qiao patted Mo Dou on the head, and the black dog turned and burrowed into the pine forest.
Master Qiao and Zhou Zhi followed behind, and after passing through the pine forest, they came to a house. Next to the open dam mill, an energetic old man stood there: "Is the wood coming? The exam is here. How did you do on the exam? Is this... elbow?"
"Hey, grandpa, okay? "Zhou Zhi said with a smile: "It's me, elbow! We saw you at my godfather's house. You are still so strong!"
"Grandpa, we are so hungry, do we have anything to eat? ?" Mr. Qiao put down his backpack: "We haven't had lunch yet!"
Zhou Zhi smiled and said: "It is estimated that my sworn brother did very well in the exam. He is ranked second or third in the county. Now we have to wait for the overall results of the province."
Grandpa Qian sighed: "Just Well, we won’t go to Qingbei anyway.”
Zhou Zhi suddenly realized that the family might have resented their godfather after he was admitted to Qingbei twice but was not admitted. Mr. Qiao was so angry that the reason why Zhao Shangzhong did not enroll in these two schools might be It's not just teenage hormones that are playing tricks.
This is a woman coming out of the kitchen of the side house: "Here is the wood? Is this the elbow?"
"This is your eldest brother's godson. His first name is Zhou Zhi and his nickname is Zhou Zhi. "Elbow!" Grandpa Wu said with a smile: "A rare guest is here!"
"Hello, Auntie."
"Okay, I know you are coming today. The chicken soup has been simmering for a long time, but the result is that the first one doesn't come, the second wait doesn't come..."
" Blame him!" Master Qiao pointed at Zhou Zhi: "Too slow!"
" Hey, you kid, we can’t find any weird guests! Put down your things and let’s start dinner!” A man walked out of the main room, he looked a bit like his godfather, he looked about eight or nine years younger, and he was wearing the same blue suit as Mr. Qiao. A colored cotton vest, with an apron tied around the waist, and there are shavings on the apron.
"Uncle Yao." Zhou Zhi greeted him proactively.
"It's very rare, your elbows have grown so big?!" Uncle Yao was very happy to see Zhou Zhi: "The last time we met, you seemed to be... eight years old? Nine years old?"
"Absolutely. He looked like he was in the third or fourth grade. "I remember when I was still playing wooden swords, my uncle brought one to me and my adopted brother. The craftsmanship was very fine."
" Hahahaha you all "Remember?"
"I remember, even the hilt and scabbard are still there. It's so beautiful." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "I didn't know how to be precious when I was young, so I broke the sword." "
"It's just a carving done in my spare time." Even though he said this, Uncle Yao was still very happy: "You can bring me to fix it for you."
"The elbows and wood are both big dolls. I'm afraid I won't be able to play with them anymore." Grandpa Wu smiled and said: "Eat!"
This is a mountainous area, and there is little land to grow rice. The main crops are sweet potatoes, Corn, pumpkin, potatoes.
Uncle Yao is a good carpenter. He often makes furniture for the villagers. Many of them are paid in rice, which is better than the surrounding families.
But no matter how rich you are, there is nothing you can do. If you want to eat fresh pork, you have to go down the fifteen-mile mountain road to the brigade headquarters at the foot of the mountain. It is not available every day, and you have to wait for the big market every nine.
Therefore, having chicken soup to drink and bacon to eat is the highest standard of hospitality.
As for corn and potatoes, there is a pot of corn and potatoes cooking on the stove. You can get it if you want to eat it. If you don't finish it, you can feed it to the pigs at night.
Zhou Zhi is a very picky person. The reason why he rarely came to Erli Township in the past is that he was too owed to himself. Baimi Township where Yang He is located is much better. At least he can get a lot of eels on his own. Loaches, small fish and the like are given as tooth-beating rituals.
But as a second generation, it is impossible to care about these things, not to mention the bamboo shoots and chicken soup. He smiled and said: "On the way, I also said that I would bring a few crabs and throw them into the chicken soup, but my aunt had already thought of it. "Yes." The aunt smiled and said, "I didn't think of it, it was because of the baby. I thought of it. Knowing that you were coming, he brought some back yesterday.” The eldest name is Wu Li, given by his godfather; the nickname is Tiao Nao, and the nickname is Nao Wa, given by Mr. Qiao. All in all, quite arrogant.
"He hasn't had a holiday yet, and he lives in school in Hongshui City."
"It's better to go to Jiachuan Middle School for high school." Zhou Zhi said: "Otherwise, it will really become a matter of studying in Guizhou Province and Shu Province's college entrance examination. Reverse.”
Now. Such a trend has already emerged. As early as the age below them, "transfer students" have begun to appear. They are all well-informed non-locals from Jiachuan. They try their best to find people to support their children and get their children to attend Jiachuan Middle School. .
The teaching quality of Jiachuan Middle School has improved by leaps and bounds in the past two years. If you transfer to Jiachuan Middle School, and your student status is still in Guizhou Province, Dian Province, or even the snowy area, you will take advantage of the college entrance examination.
This is a new phenomenon. There are no restrictive policies yet, so it can be considered an opportunity.
"Naowa's grades are average..." My aunt glanced at my godfather carefully as she spoke.
Zhou Zhi understood. It was estimated that Naowa's grades were a little bit behind, but the godmother was the deputy county magistrate in charge of culture and education, and the godfather was the deputy director of the culture and education bureau. This really shouldn't be a big deal. It was probably the godfather who said hello, not to let the uncle and aunt disturb the godfather and stepmother because of the baby.
"My sworn brother will go to university in another place next semester. If Naowa can go to Jiachuan to study, my godfather and stepmother will not be lonely." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "Anyway, I know the two of them. Both of them are not good at managing their families. Once my sworn brother leaves, I'm afraid I won't even bother to turn on the stove..."
"This is not necessary." My godfather frowned.
"I know how to make babies. At least breakfast and dinner are well prepared." Auntie immediately picked up the conversation.
"Yes. The dormitory of the Bureau of Culture and Education is only a dozen steps away from Jiachuan Middle School, which is very convenient." Mr. Qiao also said.
"Times have changed now, and some things are different from before." Zhou Zhi smiled and said: "I know students from the first year of high school, the third year of junior high school, and even students from Yunnan, Guixue and Xue District come to our school. No matter how bad Nao Wa is, he can't be worse than them, right? Then since they can do it, why can't Nao Wa? "
"Yes, what I said is the truth," Master Qiao nodded to confirm. .
"It seems to me that this matter is not very complicated, otherwise how could they get into the school?" Zhou Zhi said: "I think we can ask my godfather and stepmother first. It would be best if it is simple. If it's not easy, then think of a way!"
"Dad, look..." My aunt looked at my godfather helplessly.
Grandpa Qian sighed and looked at Zhou Zhi: "If there are many transfer students in Jiachuan Middle School, it would be true to that sentence - the law does not punish everyone?"
"That's the truth." Zhou Zhi He said with a smile: "Then we will explain the situation to our godfather and godmother when we return from the inspection, or you can go to the brigade headquarters and call them if you have time."
"Then the youngest will go to the foot of the mountain tomorrow. ." Grandpa finally let go. He said: "Let's ask the boss to see if there is any fresh meat for sale. Let's get some twice-cooked pork or something for the kids." Master wants I asked Xiaoshan to see how to repair the mountain gate, and he happened to take the children to Fawang Temple."
"Does grandpa like "Chu Ci"? This was the first time Zhou Zhi knew Yao Shu's name, so he asked curiously. road.
"How do you know?" Godfather asked with a smile.
"My godfather's name is Lingjun, and my uncle's name is Xiaoshan. Since Lingjun is the name of Qu Yuan, and Qu Yuan is the master of Chu Ci, then Xiaoshan will not be the well-known Yan Xiaoshan, but should be Huainan "Hill."
