During dinner, Su Simei picked up a few pieces of food for her niece.
"Eat more. I see you've become paler lately. Are you not getting enough nutrition?"
Su Xiaoqi, who was holding her second bowl of rice: ...
It’s not because of lack of nutrition, it’s probably because of the trouble caused by Bai Yidu just now.
Su Xiaoqi has fair skin. They all say that the water in Gumula Village nourishes people and produces beautiful women.
The men in the village are dark and thin, but the women are mostly fair-skinned and beautiful.
There is also a ballad in Lushan City that goes like this: Gumula’s aunt, sugar from the sugarcane fields, water from Xishan Spring…
Therefore, the women in Gumula Village do not have trouble finding a husband, but it is very difficult for the men to get married.
All the girls in the village are married, and girls from other villages are unwilling to marry here.
The only way for the young man to do this is to go out and work to trick the girl back...
Xiaoqi was originally very fair. After coming to Lushan City to study for a few years, he became a little darker, but he was still fairer than most people. If he became a shade whiter now, he would probably be about the same age as Guan Jingzhi.
Xiao Qi saw his arm stretched out to pick up food, and it felt so white that he could see the blue marks of blood vessels... He inexplicably felt as if he was a little fragile.
"It's probably because I've been swimming and soaking in the pool too much recently." Xiao Qi retracted his hand and said guiltily.
When Su Simei heard this, she thought it was possible. Although Su Simei was fat and her face was sunburned, her body was extremely white.
"I can swim now, too. Feifei said she would come over at the end of the month, and I'll take her swimming then." Su Simei seemed to be in a good mood today.
Xiaoqi seems to be going to his uncle's house at the end of the month to attend his cousin's wedding.
Also, Xiaoqi heard that her father wanted to hold a graduation party, but she felt that it was unnecessary. The university she went to was very ordinary, and there was nothing to celebrate. However, she always felt that her parents were very proud of this. Xiaoqi understood her parents a little bit. There were very few families in the village with only one daughter like hers. Not having a son was an extremely embarrassing thing in the countryside. Her parents were proud of her and still wanted to show off.
I guess I will still do it when the time comes, which means inviting relatives and friends to a meal.
After dinner, Xiaoqi cleaned up and his aunt went swimming. After cleaning up, Xiaoqi prepared to read and study.
She had memorized all four volumes of New Concept English. She went to the bookstore and bought a stack of exam papers, which were from previous years of the CET-4 and CET-6 exams. Having just taken the Gaokao, she was used to doing exams.
She first practiced calligraphy for half an hour, and looked at her progress: entry level (72/100). She had practiced for so many hours without realizing it. She felt that she did not practice calligraphy deliberately every day, but made use of fragmented time. Time is indeed like a ditch, and it will come out if you squeeze it.
After practicing her calligraphy, she took out a Level 4 test paper to do.
Xiaoqi spent more than an hour on this test paper, including the listening test. His composition was much smoother than before, but he didn't know how to grade himself. The listening test and reading comprehension can be checked. Xiaoqi took a look and passed, but still made a lot of mistakes. It should be because it was his first time and he was not used to this kind of question format.
It’s also because I haven’t done any test papers for a long time.
In short, it’s not very good, but just above passing.
After correcting his own papers, Xiaoqi prepared to start learning Japanese.
Xiaoqi is very excited about learning Japanese. He studies very seriously, but he always feels that what the teacher teaches is too simple and too little, and there is nothing left to memorize after a few times.
It was just a new language, so she didn't dare to be lazy. She copied it down honestly and wrote it out silently. Then she found the Japanese audio and listened to it carefully.
You can also preview the content that the teacher has not taught, which will make your learning more efficient.
It actually takes half a day from dinner to bedtime.
Xiaoqi couldn't sit still while studying, so he went to the school next door to run.
Although it was night, the school street lights were bright and it was not dark at all. It was also safe to run on campus. She came almost every day and the old security guard remembered her.
After running almost 30,000 steps, she stopped running. However, when she left the school gate, she saw a bunch of snacks at the school gate and felt hungry again.
I looked at the time and it was almost eleven o'clock in the evening. I should go back and wash up and go to bed. It was not a good time to eat, so I held back.
Go back and wash up and go to bed.
The next day was Saturday, and Xiaoqi didn't have to teach or attend classes, so she slept in.
I woke up at six o'clock, turned over, fell asleep, and when I opened my eyes again it was already past eight o'clock.
My aunt has prepared breakfast.
Su Simei was a woman with a good temper. Even though she was her niece, she didn't yell at her to force her to work. She didn't disturb her when she saw she fell asleep. She left a note for her after breakfast and asked her to get up and eat by herself.
Xiaoqi ate his meal slowly. The porridge and steamed buns were still warm, and the pickles were just right.
After eating, she went to the swimming pool again. Today was Saturday, the 17th, and next Tuesday was the day of the final competition. The day before the competition, the pool had to be closed for tidying up, so she couldn't swim. This meant she only had two days to practice swimming.
Moreover, for the tutoring class on Tuesday, I have to say hello to the students and ask if they can move the class to Monday.
Formal competitions are more serious and definitely cannot be finished in just half a day.
Today she plans to stay in the swimming pool for a while longer and have some final intensive training with her coach.
Coach Wu meant the same thing. It’s the last two days.
She felt that her student was very talented, but lacked competition experience, so intensive training in the next two days was necessary.
Xiaoqi thought that today's exercise would be quite intense, so he brought the picture book "A Day in Edo" with him.
You can also read a book during the break.
Wu Peirong specially postponed her private lessons for two days over the weekend and devoted herself to teaching Xiaoqi.
Swimming is not something that can be learned overnight, so before, she mainly let Xiaoqi practice. Practice makes perfect. Once he is familiar with water and has no unfamiliarity and affinity with water, then he can pursue speed.
After warming up at the beginning of today's training, Coach Wu asked Xiaoqi to swim quickly, using her fastest speed to simulate a competition scene.
The coach watched with a stopwatch.
She was stunned when she saw the time. She actually ran a time of 1 minute 57.19 seconds, which was a big improvement from the last preliminaries. Moreover, the champion of the 200m women's freestyle at the previous Military Games had a time of 1 minute 56.21 seconds. Xiaoqi's progress was too fast.
Wu Peirong felt that it might be a mistake on her part to use the stopwatch. After all, during a competition, there is still an error between the speed of the athletes and what she saw visually and then transmitted to the stopwatch.
She was also very excited. Even if there were some errors, it showed how fast Xiaoqi was making progress.
This moment, she held back and only praised Xiaoqi for her progress. She didn't dare to say more, fearing that if she said too much, it would affect her mood for the competition, after all, she was still young.
But she was not a cunning person, and she couldn't hide the smile on her face.
Xiao Qi swam around and found that Coach Wu seemed to be in a good mood. She asked her aunt about it when she returned home that day. It seemed that it was because Coach Wu accepted her as a student, while her aunt was only a private tutor. Moreover, her aunt was cheerful and carefree. Despite her age, she would chat with Coach Wu about many things.
So her aunt knew more about Coach Wu than she did.
She asked her aunt casually, but she didn't expect that her aunt really knew the answer. She said that Coach Wu had good grades in school at that time and could take the college entrance examination, but her family was not well off. Her family saw that the sports school was enrolling students and tuition was free, so they sent her to the sports school. However, her younger brother's grades were not good, so the family actually paid a large amount of tuition for him to go to No. 2 Middle School.
Xiaoqi knows about the tuition fees. She is in No. 1 Middle School and there are many students on a temporary basis in her class. It is said that the fee is at least tens of thousands of yuan, and there are certain requirements for academic performance.
But Coach Wu’s younger brother had to pay tuition to attend No. 2 Middle School, so his grades must be average.
Unfairness and favoritism are probably the greatest harm to children.
Xiao Qi knew the reason but could only pretend not to know. He felt very sympathetic to the coach in his heart. However, seeing Coach Wu's sunny and bright appearance now, he felt that the coach did not need his sympathy. People who work hard can live well anywhere.
She swam quickly, stood up to stretch and rest, then continued swimming.
A morning is pretty much like this: sprint swimming, rest, stretching, and more sprint swimming.
It felt like she had participated in several races in the morning, but Xiaoqi felt that she had gained something. She compared her watch and the interface and could clearly feel that her speed had increased.
The coach didn’t train her speed before, but now the effect is evident after practicing.
The same thing happened the following weekend, and Xiaoqi spent both days in the swimming pool.
I feel like I’m no longer a grass carp…at least a small shark.
