Wang Zhaozhao and Xu Yanni sat in the shade of a tree, sucking on popsicles.
"Why are you..."
"Why are you..."
Suddenly, they both spoke at the same time, looked at each other, and said at the same time, "You go first."
“!”
The two of them paused helplessly, and Xu Yanni spoke again, "What do you want to ask?"
"I'm asking you, why don't you let me buy ice cream? I think this mung bean popsicle..." Wang Zhaozhao didn't say the last few words, just shook his head.
The mung beans in the mung bean popsicle are so thick that after sipping all the ice water, it feels like a lump of frozen mung bean rice.
"That ice cream just has a little more creamer flavor, and it's not as delicious as this one," said Xu Yanni.
oh.
Then Wang Zhaozhao is fine.
Xu Yanni glanced at her, quite speechless, "Is that what you want to ask?"
"Yes." Wang Zhaozhao nodded.
“…”
Xu Yanni took a deep breath, took another big bite of the popsicle, chewed it into pieces with a crunch, and swallowed it.
Wang Zhaozhao licked his popsicle.
Xu Yanni glanced at her and asked, "Didn't the city middle school contact you? Why did you choose the county junior high school instead of the city?"
Wang Zhaozhao smacked his lips and smiled at her, "Of course the conditions offered by the county junior high school are more attractive."
"ha?"
Xu Yanni's jaw dropped.
She stared at Wang Zhaozhao in amazement, unable to recover for a long time.
"You! What's wrong with you..." After a long while, she finally spoke, but she didn't know how to say it.
"Vulgar?!" Wang Zhaozhao said for herself.
The air quieted down a bit.
Wang Zhaozhao looked up at the sky, his gaze long and profound, "We are mortals in this mortal world. Being noble requires a lot of experience..."
"I was almost fooled by you and wanted to choose the county junior high school with you." Xu Yanni said with some resentment.
"I didn't do anything, why did I scare you?"
“…”
Xu Yanni looked up and pointed towards the teaching building and asked, "Why isn't it time yet? The popsicle you bought for that person will melt."
Wang Zhaozhao said with a twitch of his lips, "That can't be helped."
You are really good at pretending.
Xu Yanni bit the popsicle hard, crunching a few times, and finished the rest of the popsicle, even biting the stick a few more times.
After waiting for a while, Song Yanni came over.
Taking the popsicle that Wang Zhaozhao bought for her, she smiled and hugged Wang Zhaozhao's arm, "Ah, I knew it, Zhaozhao, you are the best to me."
Wang Zhaozhao: “……!”
Xu Yanni: “……!”
When the bell rang, teachers from primary schools in various communes began to call for assembly, and Wang Zhaozhao and the others also had to gather.
Xu Yanni almost ran away, then turned back. "Oh, right! We were still making a bet. Have you submitted your essays? Any results?"
"Not yet." Wang Zhaozhao shook his head indifferently.
Song Yanni pouted her lips. She had long lost confidence and no longer wanted to think about this matter.
Xu Yanni puffed out her chest and said, "Let's set the deadline at three months. There's still some time."
Wang Zhaozhao had no objection. The bet was Xu Yanni's unilateral decision, and no rewards or punishments were set. It didn't matter.
What she cares about are the results and royalties. As for the system's rewards, she has already received them.
It is worth spending a gold coin. The system will make an early judgment, not based on whether the manuscript is adopted or not, but based on the system's standards.
Principal Liu handed Wang Zhaozhao over to Wang Sibing and others, and took the other students to take the bus back.
The exams for other grades will not be held for another week, so it is still early to get the notification letters. Wang Zhaozhao can stay in the county town for a few more days.
On Sunday, Wang Sibing had time and could take them back.
When a car stopped at the door, Wang Zhaozhao opened his mouth wide, looking very naive.
Wow……
Her fourth uncle was so amazing that he even borrowed a foreign car.
Xie Ailian, who came out holding her grandson, couldn't even walk, "Old Four, where did you get this?"
"Oh, Mom, don't worry about it. Get in the car quickly. Xiao Qiao can't be exposed to the wind." Wang Sibing didn't answer her question, but urged her.
His eldest niece was a relief and had already gotten into the back seat of the car.
There was no need to take the minibus, so Wang Zhaozhao didn't care. Her fourth uncle had found a way to get it, so of course she would take it first.
It's summer now, and riding a minibus is even more painful.
The car was fast, stable, not crowded or noisy. Wang Zhaozhao fell asleep with his head tilted in the second half of the journey because he was woken up by Xie Ailian when they arrived at Hebian Village.
After they got off the bus, Wang Sibing sincerely invited the comrade who sent them to his home for lunch before leaving, but the comrade politely declined.
Drive away amid the enthusiastic gazes of the crowd.
"Old Four, you're doing great. How long have you been out? You've even taken a car..."
"Yeah, yeah, that's kind of awesome."
"Oh my, this is unbelievable, this is unbelievable, Wang Dahai's family is really in great trouble."
"What's it like to ride in that car? Is it comfortable? Is it bumpy?"
“…”
What a coincidence, it happened just when everyone was getting off work.
So, when they saw Wang Sibing and his friends coming back in the car, they immediately surrounded them.
Xie Ailian yelled at the top of her voice, "Everyone, go away. Come to our house later and sit down. I have to take my grandson back now. My daughter-in-law is still in confinement and can't be exposed to the wind."
Oh, yes, yes, Wang Sibing’s wife gave birth.
Everyone started chattering again, but they didn't block the road.
Wang Sibing walked in front, protecting Qiao Li, Xie Ailian followed behind, protecting her grandson, and Wang Zhaozhao. Wang Zhaozhao was small and inconspicuous, so she had no loyalty and slipped away first.
"Wow...Sister Zhao, you're back?" As soon as she entered the courtyard, Wang Zhaozhao met Wang Baojia head-on.
Wang Zhaozhao could see that this welcome was exaggerated and not sincere.
It must be the homework she left before she left, and this guy didn’t finish it.
But now is not the time to talk about this, as many people have come to their house to join in the fun.
Everyone's enthusiasm is as hot as the summer sun.
In the afternoon, everyone went to work. Wang Zhaozhao took a newspaper and sat in the alley leading to the back of the yard to enjoy the cool air.
I was waving a big fan in my hand because it was so hot.
"Sister Zhao, my brothers are in the pond behind the mountain and are calling you to come and play." Wang Weiguo found Wang Zhaozhao.
The pond was dry, and the children loved to gather there to play, especially to play war games.
"No, it's too hot."
"You won't feel hot there, there's wind."
"I won't go there. The sun is so strong, it will take several minutes to walk there, and I will get a tan."
“…”
"How's your review going? Go get a stool, and a pen and paper."
"oh."
Wang Weiguo was originally going to tell his brother that his sister Zhao would not go, but Wang Zhaozhao asked him to get a stool and paper and pen, so he went to get them and then forgot about the matter.
Wang Baojia and a group of children were waiting there, waiting, waiting...
