…
Zhushan County, Daling Commune, Hebian Village.
Some old women were basking in the sun and sewing shoe soles in the yard beside the river dam at the entrance of the village.
Someone went to the fields on the opposite hill and brought back a load of radishes. After crossing the bridge, he put the load down, rested his feet, and listened to everyone talking about some "news."
"Wang Dasha's sow has given birth to a litter of piglets. I'd like to order two. I wonder if I can buy them on credit."
"It should be fine if we owe you a few days."
"I heard that Chen Shitou's family is planning to buy a cow."
"I heard he didn't buy it alone, but in partnership with his father-in-law's family."
"A cow costs tens or hundreds of dollars. Buying it together is a good idea, but we don't have to argue about it later."
“…”
The village is small, so there isn't a lot of 'news'. As people chat, they start talking about gossip, and some women even tell dirty jokes.
"Hey...someone is entering the village." Suddenly, someone pointed to the dirt road leading into the village and asked everyone to look.
"It's a large group of people."
"Looking at this posture...it must be Wang Dahai and Xie Ailian, who have returned with their grandchildren."
"I'm almost twenty, it's time to come back for the New Year."
"Oh my, it looks like the two college students from their family are back too, right?"
Once someone mentioned it, everyone took a closer look and saw that it was indeed the case, wasn't it?!
As he spoke, he was already approaching.
Everyone stood up to greet them and said hello warmly.
Even though the matter of Wang Sibing coming back to borrow money caused a lot of gossip among people after dinner, they still showed some affection in front of her. Even some of the old women who had a bad relationship with Xie Ailian in the past would not easily confront her in person.
Wang Zhaozhao and the other kids called for help obediently.
They are from Old Wang's family, and they are basically called by their generation. Oh, and some people also call them aunt, uncle, or even great aunt and great uncle.
Mrs. Chen...it's harder to call her that.
Marriage is allowed within the village, and some people seem to be somewhat related through various means. Kids like Wang Zhaozhao are so confused that they can't even tell the difference.
Fortunately, there were many people and everyone was talking, so if you didn’t know what to do, just don’t shout. Just remember to keep smiling.
Finally I got home, quickly opened the door, and moved out all the chairs and stools in the house for everyone to sit on.
Then put out some melon seeds and peanuts, and most importantly, candy for the children.
Women and servants would be happy if they had melon seeds to eat, but they would be even happier if their children could get a piece of candy.
Most people are quite particular. When picking up melon seeds, they will not open their hands wide and grab a handful, but will be restrained and only grab a few.
Of course, there will be those who are not particular and who will dislike her and talk about her.
More and more people came, almost to the extent that when the scandal happened that year, the whole village came to watch.
But, it's true! Two college students, how unusual.
"Zhao girl, are you tired of studying in college?" someone suddenly asked Wang Zhaozhao loudly.
Before Wang Zhaozhao could answer, someone else spoke up for her, "What's so tiring about studying? It's not like you carrying pig manure up the opposite mountain."
"That's right! It's not like you cutting thatch on a rainy day, which only gets heavier as you carry it."
"Hahaha……"
The whole hospital burst into laughter.
Wang Zhaozhao who was named said: I knew that questions like these asked in a loud voice were not for me to answer.
And now, Great Uncle, who was holding her hand and talking to her, had to respond properly.
"Beijing is a big city, and the school is also big."
"I usually stay in school, eating and sleeping there."
"Yes, the school takes care of food and accommodation, so you don't have to pay for it yourself."
“…”
Wang Zhaozhao answered, and he simply couldn't talk for a while and then find a chance to slip away as he did in the past.
As the sun got higher, the villagers gradually dispersed. It was time to go back to cook and feed the pigs.
A few people wanted to stay and have lunch together.
Zhang Xiu'e must help cook this meal.
Even if Xie Ailian didn't want her help, she didn't want to help.
Wang Zhaozhao was finally able to hide aside with Wang Xingwen and the others. At this moment, Wang Jingjing ran over and handed over a piece of paper.
During the winter vacation, Wang Erbing went to the city to pick her up.
What she handed over was, of course, the report card.
Seeing her eager look, Wang Zhaozhao changed the words on the tip of his tongue, "Bring the Chinese paper here, let me take a look."
"good."
As if she was waiting for Wang Zhaozhao to say this, she responded and ran away.
After running for a while, he accidentally jumped.
Wang Zhaozhao: “……!”
I took another look at the report card and couldn't help but wonder, 'She didn't get 88 points in Chinese on purpose, did she?'
"Host, you are exaggerating." The system, which had not taken the initiative to come out like this for a long time, couldn't help but complain.
Wang Zhaozhao just snorted and ignored it.
Wang Jingjing quickly came over with her schoolbag and took out the Chinese test paper.
The first page was filled with ticks, and Wang Zhaozhao turned the paper over...
Wow!
Good job.
Finally, she wrote a short composition. In addition to the typos corrected by the teacher in red pen, she also made a lot of black marks herself.
"I asked you to practice your handwriting before, and it's decent now, but you always make mistakes. Have you ever thought about why you make corrections?"
"I, I wrote it too quickly."
"Is there not enough time?"
"No, I'm just anxious."
"You wrote it in a hurry. Didn't you check it before handing it in?"
"I checked it. I read it twice after I finished writing it, but there were still so many typos."
“Or maybe it’s because you didn’t check carefully. If you just read, your eyes might deceive you, or you might unconsciously correct what you see.
