When the Chinese New Year is approaching, I tell the children that they are relatively free, thinking about what to play all day. For adults, it is all kinds of busy.
The school has officially closed, and there is no one on the campus, and all of a sudden it is deserted. Two days ago, Yi Xin also left school and went home. After Jiao Dad and other teachers held a summary meeting, they basically stopped going to the courtyard. They took the test papers home for correction, and at the same time pulled Jiao Yuan to work as a coolie, and Xiaoyouzi was there to help.
There are one professional course and one elective course, but there are quite a few in the combination of several departments and several classes.
Jiao Yuan helped to change the multiple-choice questions. He didn't know about other professional knowledge, but the multiple-choice questions ABCD could still be solved. After the statistics are done, use a pen to write down the score in the blank space next to it, and then it will be convenient for Jiao Dad to calculate the total score after changing other question types.
Jiao Dad asked Xiaoyouzi to help, and Jiao Yuan checked the paper again. Don't look at Xiaoyouzi who is only in the second grade, but he is very familiar with addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Jiao Dad also put a calculator next to him. Xiaoyouzi can use the calculator to check. As for Jiao Yuan, he is almost in junior high school. Basic addition and subtraction Do you need a calculator to multiply and divide? Jiao Yuan couldn't afford to lose this person himself.
The attached school's transcript came out. Jiao Yuan was fourth in the class this time. Jiao's father never clearly asked him how many places he had to take the exam and how many points he had to take on the exam. It was all the standard set by Jiao Yuan himself, and sometimes he would meet the standard. Sometimes it fails. But this time, his wish was obviously fulfilled, and the development of things was almost as expected by Jiao's father. When Jiao's mother led him to the mall, he passed by the place that sold toy guns. Jiao Yuan stared at the toy guns with his eyes straight. , and finally chose the gun and gave up the choice of clothes.
As for sitting here obediently today to help change the test papers, Jiao Yuan is mainly for earning pocket money. One test paper is 10 cents. There are about two or three hundred copies in it. When going out to play, you can also buy some "junk food".
Zheng Tan squatted on the small folded square table with a chess pattern on it, watching them correct the exam papers.
Each test paper is covered with childish red numbers. Sometimes when he encounters people who are bored and draw on the back of the test paper during the test, Jiao Yuan will add two strokes, and then he will smirk there.
"Hey, I know this teacher, Dad, isn't this the teacher who always likes to wear a portable loudspeaker? It really looks like the painting!"
Zheng Tan stretched his neck and looked at it. On the reverse side of the test paper, he used a ballpoint pen to draw a sketch of the invigilator teacher, while Jiao Yuan used a pen to add a few strokes on it. Xiaoyouzi wanted to see it, but Jiao Yuan covered it. Press it to the bottom, and then take it out and hand it to Dad Jiao after the final changes are made, but she can't let her see it. Because he added a stroke to the teacher's crotch to draw a small JJ, and avoided suspicion by using a ballpoint pen of a similar color instead of the red pen used for correction.
Anyway, the final exam papers will not be sent, unless students who have doubts about their scores apply to check the exam papers, and they will be transferred out. Under normal circumstances, these paintings will basically not be seen. Therefore, Dad Jiao didn't say anything about Jiao Yuan's actions.
Zheng Tan tugged at his ears, this little brat is really bad fun.
After a while, Zheng Tan heard Jiao Yuan's "Huh" sound again.
"Dad, this person said that he has never learned English, so he wants you to be merciful." Jiao Yuan pointed to the English noun explanation question on the multiple-choice question in the test paper at hand, and Jiao's father said.
Zheng Tan saw that there was a pen note in the blank space behind the full English noun explanation for the first major question of the test paper, "Dear Teacher Jiao, I am from the XX family, I have never studied English before, the college entrance examination is in R language, and I can't answer it. Well, please be merciful..."
According to the requirements of Chuhua University, the direct retake of the failed subjects used to be a make-up test. Later, the school found that some people were lucky enough to fail the make-up test. Anyway, the make-up test will basically be passed. As a result, the school issued a new policy this year, and those who fail the subject will be directly retaken.
At first, many people protested. When Zheng Tan went out for a run in the morning, he also saw some notes posted on the tree trunks on the wall, protest letters from unknown people. Because other schools in Chuhua City were not so ruthless, the students condemned the school for being too inhumane, but in the end they gave in. Some people feel that it is a shame to go to a class with a junior classmate who is one year lower than them after failing a class. But some people are more optimistic, because they can meet many beautiful school girls.
Hearing Jiao Yuan's words, Jiao Dad looked at the name on the test paper and said, "I know this person's situation, and so do other teachers. They will definitely give him loose standards."
"Hey, it's a good thing, then when I take the Chinese test, I will write at the end of the composition 'Teacher, my hand is injured, please be merciful if I am not good at writing the words in the test with the injury'. I got high marks."
Jiao Yuan's composition score is his pain. What lowers his Chinese score is his composition. Because his writing is not good, his handwriting will always lower his score. , the poor ranking can not let the family meet his wishes, so Jiao Yuan has a deep resentment for the composition.
However, although Jiao Yuan's pen calligraphy is not good, the brush calligraphy is the exact opposite.
When Jiao Yuan took part in the primary school students' brush competition, his class teacher couldn't believe the words that Jiao Yuan came up with. Every word written in the pen looked like it was stunted. How could the writing in the brush be like this? ! Even some middle school students may not be able to match such calligraphy. In the words of his head teacher, the calligraphy has "a little bit of character".
Later, his head teacher also sighed, "Jiao Yuan, when will your pen calligraphy be able to show some character? Don't always fail to develop."
Zheng Tan has seen Jiao Yuan's pen writing. There is a calligraphy on the wall of Jiao Yuan's room. There are also some memo written in pen in the room. Absolutely would not believe it was written by the same person.
Jiao Yuan looked at the test paper in his hand, turned his pen, and began to think carefully.
The final exam is a cross-examination change. My teacher changes the other class's examination paper, and the teacher who changes his own examination paper does not know his handwriting... Jiao Yuan nodded, um, this method is feasible!
"Erase that little bit of cleverness in your mind. If you do this during the junior exam, it will definitely be counterproductive. Do you think those teachers are fools?" Jiao Dad didn't even look at them, he knew this when he heard Jiao Yuan turn his pen. The boy started to think about it again.
"Oh." Jiao Yuan sighed and continued to change the next test paper.
beep —
The phone in the bedroom rang.
Dad Jiao looked at the caller ID, and the expression on his face was much lighter.
"Hey… "
Zheng Tan's ear is much better than the two children's. The bedroom is so large and not too far away, so he can hear the conversation on the phone.
It was a female voice. Most of the time, it was just the woman who was talking. From time to time, a burst of English came out. Papa Jiao stood there holding the receiver and simply answered twice without saying much.
Although Dad Jiao doesn't talk much, according to Zheng Tan's understanding, Dad Jiao is not so indifferent when talking on the phone.
The other party mentioned "she" a few times, but Zheng Tan didn't know who this "she" was referring to, and then the other party said the most was that he would send money, hoping Dad Jiao could take care of "her".
After talking for a few minutes, Jiao Dad finally stopped saying "um", "oh", "okay" and so on, but asked, "Do you want to talk to her?"
The other party was silent for a while, and said, "Okay, I still have something to do here, I'm afraid I won't be able to talk for a few minutes."
Dad Jiao didn't listen to the whispers from the other side, and turned to look at the little grapefruit who was pressing the calculator, "Youzi, your mother wants to talk to you."
Zheng Tan's ears perked up.
Little grapefruit her mother? Is it the mother who didn't want to come back when she was abroad, but sent her seven-year-old daughter back to China, and she was happy outside
Zheng Tan didn't think of Yuzi's mother just now, mainly because those words and the tone of those words were too alienated, like shirk, for fear that the people on Jiao's side would stick to her.
No wonder Dad Jiao would have that reaction.
If Zheng Tan had said it, he would have scolded him directly. It's a pity that Zheng Tan can't speak, he can only howl.
Jiao Yuan did not continue to change the test paper, and looked at Xiaoyouzi with sympathy in his eyes.
Xiaoyouzi answered the phone and said fewer words than Jiao Dad, one "um", one "oh", and then it was gone. The phone has been hung up over there.
Zheng Tan couldn't help but stretched out his paws and scratched his feet, and Yuzi's mother said a few words, one was to ask Xiaoyouzi "Are you okay?" and the other was to "be obedient at aunty's house."
Xiaoyouzi pursed her lips, hung up the phone, came over and continued to press the calculator to check the several test papers just now. There are still traces of Zheng Tan's cat's claws scratching on those test papers.
"Okay, let's go here today." Jiao Dad clapped his hands and sorted out the papers from Jiao Yuan and Xiaoyouzi, "By the way, your mother sent some money to buy you a New Year's gift. buy what?"
Xiaoyouzi thought about it and replied, "Bicycle."
"I want it too!" Jiao Yuan was excited, how could he forget about the bicycle, he was going to ride a bicycle after entering junior high school, he should have practiced in advance, and then he would go racing with Xiong Xiong and the others! Anyway, there are not many motor vehicles in the school, which is suitable for racing bicycles.
Dad Jiao looked at Jiao Yuan with the same expression, "Rejected."
"why?"
"Your mother said to wait until the summer vacation to buy them. Xiong Xiong and Su An also don't buy bicycles in advance."
Regarding the purchase of bicycles, several mothers have long discussed and unanimously decided not to buy them for the time being. There is still half a year left. I will buy it again during the summer vacation. When the time comes, a few people will go together, and the store has been selected. She is an acquaintance of Xiong Xiongma. At that time, they can also get discounts together. If there is a problem with the car, it is easy to solve the problem.
Hearing that several other people were treated the same way, Jiao Yuan balanced.
For children of the age of Xiaoyouzi, they will definitely not buy bicycles like Jiao Yuan and others, but buy children's bicycles. The place to buy a car is at the nearby Central Department Store. Three people walked past in the afternoon, but Zheng Tan didn’t follow. It was almost New Year’s Eve, and there were so many thieves over there that it was inconvenient for Zheng Tan to follow him, so he simply stayed at home and felt sleepy. Or squatting in the kitchen to watch Mommy Jiao prepare some Chinese New Year foods, such as fried dumplings, fried lotus root clips, braised products, etc.
When Zheng Tan was squatting there, Jiao's mother occasionally handed him a warm meatball that had just finished frying. Zheng Tan chewed the meatball in his mouth, feeling that the day was really tamar and nourishing. This is the so-called Open your mouth when you eat, sleep when you are full, and live a life without worrying about anything.
The three go fast and come back fast. When he came back, Jiao Dad came back with a pink and purple stroller that had been assembled.
Choosing a stroller is not an easy job. Don't think that installing two protective wheels on the rear wheel is safe and all right. It also depends on whether the size of the handbrake handle on the car is suitable for the child. If the size is too large, the child will not be able to hold the handbrake tightly when braking, and it will not be able to brake. It also depends on whether the braking force is too large, whether the chain cover is well covered, etc., so as to reduce the chance of injury to children.
So Dad Jiao asked Xiaoyouzi to choose a car and test it in person.
After testing the car, Xiaoyouzi asked for a bigger car basket, the original one was too small. Although the big cart doesn't look as good as the original one, Xiaoyouzi likes it, and Jiao Dad and Jiao Yuan can also guess the reason for such a big cart, so they don't object.
"Yo, this car is very beautiful!" Jiao Ma, wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen and smiled when she saw the basket of the car: "Is this specially prepared for black charcoal?"
"Yeah!" Xiaoyouzi nodded, then looked at Zheng Tan.
Zheng Tan flicked his tail, walked over and jumped on the basket. Because it was a stroller, it wasn't as high as Jiao Dad's little electric car, and Zheng Tan felt that it was very close to the ground. Fortunately, the space of the car basket is acceptable, and it is not uncomfortable to squat in it. It is best to put a plush pad in it...
Just as Zheng Tan was thinking, Xiaoyouzi took out a fur hat, "It will be better if you put this on."
There was dust on the wheels, and Jiao Dad and Jiao Yuan were one on the other, protecting Xiaoyouzi, who was riding for the first time, and came back. There is a protection wheel, the balance is stable, and you can get used to it with a few feet.
Watching Xiaoyouzi riding a bicycle, Jiao Yuan was so envious that he wanted to drag a row of bicycles parked around him to practice, but no matter how he thought about it, he didn't want to ride Xiaoyouzi's stroller. A man riding a bike like this would make people laugh out loud.
After having a car, Xiaoyouzi would go downstairs for a few laps every day, and Zheng Tan squatted in the car basket, not feeling cold even with a fur hat on it. Once, Ah Huang saw Zheng Tan squatting inside and jumped up, but Zheng Tan slapped him down. Private cat territory, outside cats are not allowed to enter.
There are not many children in the compound who have their own bicycles. Seeing Xiaoyouzi riding a bicycle, they all envy them. They clamored for their family to buy them. If they didn’t buy them, they came over and asked to borrow Xiaoyouzi’s bike to ride. Zheng Tan was scared away. So, in a few days, the children in the compound knew that there was always a vicious black cat in Gu Youzi's car basket, and it was said that it would scratch children. So gradually, even if Jiao Yuan didn't show up, no one dared to move Xiaoyouzi's bicycle.
At first, Xiaoyouzi only rode in the compound, and later began to ride out of the compound. She didn't want to keep pulling hatred in the compound, and there were too many hot-eyed people.
Papa Jiao followed her and watched. The temperature has warmed up in the past two days, and the snow has almost melted. He is not afraid of icing and slipping on the road. After several times in a row, Papa Jiao is also relieved.
Although little grapefruit is young, she is very sensible. Children who are too sensible are painful, and adults will be more tolerant of everything. Everyone in the family could tell that Xiaoyouzi was in a bad mood recently, which was probably the reason for her mother's phone call, so every day Xiaoyouzi went out of the compound to ride a bike, and no one said anything.
On this day, Xiaoyouzi was still riding out of the compound after lunch. Her stroller was locked beside Jiao Dad's small electric car, so that she would not be exhausted by lifting it up and down every day. Moreover, the space at home was not very large, so she kept it at home. Nor is it convenient.
Papa Jiao didn't ride the electric bike, so he watched from behind. Xiaoyouzi wasn't riding fast, but Papa Jiao could catch up with just a few steps.
Not long after, Jiao's dad's cell phone rang, Yuanzi asked him for something, and asked him to go to the company. Jiao Dad told Xiaoyouzi a few words, telling her not to ride too far, and to go home after a while. After being assured, Jiao Dad left.
Without Papa Jiao behind, Xiaoyouzi rode a little faster. Continue along the road.
Zheng Tan took a look. This is the road he usually runs on. If he walks straight ahead, he will reach the woods on the edge of the campus.
Xiaoyouzi's destination was that forest. She followed Jiao Yuan and the others once, so she remembered it there.
The woods area is not quiet, and various sounds from the construction site not far away can be heard far away. Recently, the workers have been busy working day and night here, and the workers are eager to go home for the New Year and finish the expected work as soon as possible.
Xiaoyouzi rode towards the woods for a while, and was not ready to go any further. This area is not very safe. The adults have said many times that even though it was daytime, Xiaoyouzi did not intend to go in, so he was about to turn his head and go home.
Just as he was about to turn around, a child's barking came from the woods, and a dog barked.
Zheng Tan can tell who the dog is. The dog at the side door guard is a black-backed dog. He was brought in not long ago. He is four months old. He usually comes to the woods to have fun and fights with Zheng Tan. After getting acquainted, seeing Zheng Tan is not too noisy, and sometimes he will follow Zheng Tan to run around the forest, as long as its owner whistles, it will run back quickly.
However, what happened now? Scared kids
After Xiaoyouzi hesitated for a while, she parked the car and locked it. She took out a rolling pin from her small backpack. This was eliminated after Jiao Yuan got the toy gun. When Xiaoyouzi was about to come out to ride, Jiao Yuan shoved it in. her backpack.
Seeing Xiaoyouzi enter the woods with a rolling pin, Zheng Tan also hurried up to explore the road not far in front of her.
