night.
The sky is clear for most of the month with few clouds.
Su Xiaoqi washed the clothes and prepared dinner. The dishes were cooked by her aunt, and she just steamed the rice.
The dishes my aunt cooked were not very tasty, they were rather rough. The vegetables and meat were just boiled in water, so they were rather hard.
Of course, it is much better than the school cafeteria.
And homemade ones are much cleaner.
Su Xiaoqi saw her aunt coming home from get off work and hurried over to cook.
Then Huluhulu ate and drank with her, and was hurriedly called away by the patient to go back to work.
Xiaoqi is responsible for washing the dishes.
After washing the dishes, the sun was setting. This meal time was because her aunt had accommodated her school time. She was always starving after school, so she ate earlier.
After dinner, she looked at the screen in front of her. She had not yet completed her 20,000 steps for the day, so she prepared to go out for a walk.
At the same time, I also picked up the second volume of New Concept English. I have finished most of it, with only one third left.
She was going to No. 1 Middle School. Although it was a holiday, many teachers still had to live in the school, so the small door was open. She could go to the school to recite under the street lights. She had done this before in school, often holding books under the street lights. Although the light was dim, she walked around the playground in circles, and her recitation efficiency was still relatively high.
You can walk and recite at the same time, killing two birds with one stone.
I just didn't expect that during the holidays, there would still be so many people on the playground. Because it was hot, nearby residents would come here to take a walk to cool off, and young people would also come here to play ball. Unlike during school hours when the school has evening self-study and playing ball is prohibited, there is no concern during the holidays, and there are many people on several playgrounds.
Su Xiaoqi held a book and walked along the edge of the playground until she came to the playground closest to the laboratory. The basketball hoop there was the most broken and there was an uneven area on the ground, so there shouldn't be anyone there.
Sure enough, when she walked over, there was no one playing ball, but there were a few people taking a walk occasionally.
It doesn't matter, it doesn't affect her, so she just walks around with the book in her arms and reads.
After she finished memorizing the remaining one-third of the book, she realized that her steps today had exceeded 20,000, and the amount of money she owed had stopped at 7,160 yuan and had not increased.
This is the third day.
Now she has so much money. She hasn't spent the remaining money in the past two days, but her whole mental state is different.
At this moment, I suddenly understood a little bit about the text I had learned in the textbook before, "The Necklace" written by Maupassant. A woman borrowed a necklace and accidentally lost it. As a result, in order to return the necklace, she worked hard and lived a frugal life for almost the rest of her life. In the end, she found out that the necklace she borrowed was a fake.
The lady in the necklace is always burdened with debt, and even if the debt does not exist, it can still break her down.
At this moment, I saw that I was making money all the time. Even though I didn't use the money, I still stood up straight.
However, this money is just the beginning. Su Xiaoqi feels that it is not easy to figure out how to spend it.
I never thought that spending money would be difficult before, but now, I really feel that way.
She plans to go home tomorrow so that she can buy some clothes for her father. Her father actually envies others who can ride motorcycles. Although he has a limp, it doesn't look like it when he rides a motorcycle. He looks quite handsome. However, she has only been out for two days, so it is not appropriate for her to buy a car.
As for what else to buy, she hasn't decided yet and will see tomorrow.
Go home first and tell your parents that you have found a tutoring job so that they can put their minds at ease.
Su Xiaoqi thought about the future and decided not to repeat the year.
Once the most difficult problem of money is solved, everything else will not be a problem.
After I finished reciting and walking, it was already late and the half moon in the sky had moved some distance away.
She returned to the hospital and went to the ward to say hello to her aunt before returning to her aunt's dormitory.
Lin Min's house next door seems a little quiet today. No one is there. I don't know where they went.
She slept alone at night. She originally wanted to wash up and go to bed, but then she thought of the calligraphy diamond card she got today. This is an advanced card. As long as she writes for a hundred hours, she can upgrade to the next level.
I have been writing for so many years, but I have only reached the entry level.
I’m looking forward to what it will be like to go to the next level.
At night, the room was very cool. Xiao Qi tidied up the table, pressed some small receipts under the glass of the table, put the radio straight, and straightened the stool. At the same time, he turned on the lights in the room and the desk lamp, filled the pen with ink, changed into loose pajamas, and only after doing all this did he sit down upright to practice calligraphy.
Today she specially borrowed a copy of Wen Zhengming's calligraphy in small characters and a latest edition of an English dictionary from the library.
They are all reference books and are quite practical.
Her handwriting is neat and well-behaved, but it lacks some strength, and it always feels like something is missing when she draws on it.
When I first started writing, I could still hear the sound of traffic on the street, the noise outside the window, the footsteps coming and going upstairs, and occasionally the meow of a wild cat.
Slowly, the outside world seemed to quiet down.
In front of me, there is only a pen, a piece of paper, and a world made up of strokes.
For Xiaoqi, who has just experienced the high-intensity study in his senior year of high school, practicing calligraphy can really be regarded as a way to relax.
She was very serious, and because of her good manners, even though she wrote for a long time, she was not as tired as before. She sat upright, held the pen properly, and wrote very easily.
When she stopped writing, she found that there was an extra string of data on the interface in front of her.
Host: Su Xiaoqi.
Calligraphy: Entry-level+ (1.5/100).
Strength: Strong as an average human.
Bamboo weaving: entry level.
Memory buff (3/10).
Language sense buff (2/10).
Etiquette buff (1/10).
She stretched and prepared to go to the bathroom, wash up and come back to sleep.
At this time, the entire aisle was quiet. When she came back, she noticed that Lin Min was reading a book at the dining table in the aisle. The table was relatively low and the lights were dim. He was tall and had his head lowered very low.
It's a bit painful to watch.
It's just me and my aunt here, and my aunt sleeps in the ward at night, so it's very convenient for her to read and write.
But Lin Min's family had a more difficult situation. Their family of four occupied a corner of the tunnel. In addition to the bedroom, the utility room next to it was also cleaned up and became the room for Lin Min and his sister Lin Qingqing. There was a curtain between the two rooms and two beds.
The table could no longer accommodate the room, but she had not lived with her aunt before and only came to eat, so she seldom saw Lin Min studying, and Lin Min usually came back late, so she often missed him.
I didn't expect that he learned in this way.
She thought for a moment, went into the room to get the desk lamp, put it on the table and said, "Brother Lin Min, I'm done studying. I'll give you the desk lamp first. I'm going to sleep first. You can just turn it off after you use it."
Lin Min was stunned for a moment, forced a smile at her, didn't say much, just nodded.
He still has to tutor three other students tomorrow and prepare lessons.
Just now he saw Su Xiaoqi writing in the room. Because the basement was stuffy and hot, the door was always open when he was not sleeping, with only a curtain hanging. He saw the shadow inside through the curtain.
I saw her writing neatly for a long time.
He said good night and continued studying.
Su Xiaoqi closed the door but didn't lock it, as her aunt would come back sometimes.
Another fulfilling day, time to sleep.
Outside the door, Lin Min's pen was drawing on the notebook so heavily that it could pierce the book. He was a little glad that Su Xiaoqi was not there when his parents quarreled.
That scene was very embarrassing and uncomfortable.
It all started because Dad said a dish Mom cooked was too salty. Mom suddenly got angry and complained that Dad was not ambitious enough and was drinking and playing cards. Dad slammed the door and left in anger.
My sister was making a fuss about buying headphones again, but she was slapped by my angry mother. She hid in the room angrily and closed the door.
He doesn't know what to do?
What could he do? To stop his mother from getting angry? To stop his father from drinking and playing cards? To stop his sister from buying headphones?
He seemed to be of no use at all.
His previous calmness and composure could not hide the fact that he was just an 18-year-old boy. He had tried very hard, but it was all in vain.
In the silent tunnel, the boy's tears dripped onto his lesson plan book.
In this big world, he only has a greasy dining table in a dim tunnel, but no desk.
There was an extra desk lamp in front of me, and the light was much brighter.
The scene before my eyes became much brighter.
He stared at the desk lamp for a while, suddenly remembered the day he saw Su Xiaoqi crying, and then continued writing.
Xiao Qi was almost asleep in the room when a voice suddenly rang out in his ears: "The host has taken the initiative to help others improve their learning conditions. This has brought a bit of positive energy to the blackened boy and reduced his negative emotions. As a reward, you will receive a dental correction. After the correction, the host's smile will be sweeter and his face more dignified."
Su Xiaoqi: ???
A dark boy? Lin Min seems kind enough?
And what the hell is orthodontics? Her teeth are pretty straight, except that her front teeth are a little bigger and her canines are a little more pointed.
She took out a mirror and grinned at it...
