Chapter 85: Lying Down



"Oh..." Zhou Haiyan sighed, and no one knew what she was sighing about, but her sigh was sincere and heartfelt.

Zhou Honghua, who had already picked up the thermos and offered to pour water for them, suddenly said, "A child with a mother is a treasure, and a child without a mother is a weed."

"……"Well.

Wang Zhaozhao opened her mouth, but she really didn't know what to say. My mother is not dead yet, she just became my aunt.

Zhou Haiyan sighed again and told Wang Zhaozhao, "Honghua's mother died of illness two years ago, but she doesn't have a stepmother yet."

Wang Zhaozhao pursed her lips and laughed dryly, "Not all stepmothers in this world are bad."

It happened so suddenly that I don’t know how to comfort her. No wonder Zhou Honghua is much calmer than Zhou Haiyan.

Zhou Honghua smiled at her, "I'm not afraid of a stepmother. My grandma and my aunt both like me. Even if I have a stepmother and my dad becomes my stepfather, I'm not afraid!"

"Yes! Don't be afraid! Just be my stepmother. She doesn't beat me or scold me, but she doesn't care about me. She usually ignores me. I think this is not bad. After all, she won't let me starve. Am I not studying now?"

Wang Zhaozhao patted Zhou Honghua on the shoulder and shared his experience with her, "The most important thing is not to be afraid, and don't be humble and try to please others."

"Yeah!" Zhou Honghua nodded vigorously.

The two smiled at each other.

Zhou Haiyan, who was unable to get a word in, became anxious and said, "We are all good sisters. You two can't exclude me."

That is not possible.

Over there, Liu Shanhua insisted on pulling Wang Xiaomei to the playground and not going back to the classroom first.

The classroom is so small, and Wang Xingwen and the others are all in it. Even that idiot Chen Daqiang stands on Wang Zhaozhao's side and doesn't like her.

"Shanhua, what are you doing? Zhaozhao didn't offend you." Wang Xiaomei glanced at Liu Shanhua, not understanding why she looked so angry.

But she could guess that Liu Shanhua's expression was because of Wang Zhaozhao.

Liu Shanhua: “……!”

Could she say that she was thinking about getting full marks in the exam and just wanted to provoke Wang Zhaozhao?

"I'm a little angry. Wang Zhaozhao and I are sisters, and you see, she didn't even say hello to me just now..."

"Then you didn't say hello to her just now? Besides, don't you always say that she looks down on you and bullies you? Wouldn't it be better if she didn't say hello to you?"

“…”

The muscles on Liu Shanhua's face twitched, and she lowered her head to hide the irritation in her eyes. When she looked up again, she looked at Wang Xiaomei and gave a wry smile.

"Alas, because of my awkward identity, over the years, I've become accustomed to trying to please Wang Zhaozhao and Brother Xingwen and the others, hoping they'll see me and treat me as a family member. Especially Brother Xingwen and the others, who only treat Wang Zhaozhao as their own sister..."

"Zhao Zhao is actually Brother Xingwen's biological sister."

“…”

Liu Shanhua was interrupted by Wang Xiaomei before she could finish her words, and then she didn't want to talk anymore.

If she didn't want to snatch Wang Zhaozhao's best friend and curry favor with Wang Xiaomei, she would definitely have turned her back on her.

Wang Xiaomei is lucky. In Liu Shanhua's previous life, Wang Gonglai started a business and became a small boss. As his daughter, Wang Xiaomei could of course marry into a good family.

"Oh, it's raining. Let's go back to the classroom." A little raindrop fell on Wang Xiaomei's forehead. She looked up and hurriedly pulled Liu Shanhua to run to the classroom.

The rain came suddenly and heavily.

For lunch, everyone can only eat in the corridor or classroom, and cannot sit all over the playground like usual.

Wang Zhaozhao did not go to join Wang Xingwen and the others, but ate at his own seat. Zhou Haiyan and Zhou Honghua brought their stools over, and the three of them squeezed into one table.

Zhou Haiyan's family seemed to be well off. Although they didn't eat plain white rice, they didn't add dried sweet potato grains like they did. The dishes were similar, with stir-fried pickled radish.

However, the person who had the best meal was Liu Gaoshu. He not only ate white rice, but also braised fish.

Even Ren Tianan, whose aunt was a teacher at school, was surpassed. Liu Gaoshu was very generous and gave a piece of fish to Wang Zhaozhao and the others.

After all, we didn't bring much, so we just scooped up a piece of fish and each person took a small piece.

As soon as he took a bite, Wang Zhaozhao's expression lit up. It was delicious!

Not to mention the countryside, even in ordinary working-class families, most people would be frugal with the oil when cooking, but when she ate this small bite of fish, the oil was so fragrant...

Woohoo, it’s so delicious.

Think about it, eat it, and just say it tastes good. It is absolutely impossible to ask if someone put too much oil in it.

"My father works in the canteen of the township commune. He is a chef. Everything he cooks is delicious." Liu Gaoshu said with a chuckle when he heard everyone praising the food.

"Wow... a chef." Wang Zhaozhao and the other three girls exclaimed in surprise.

These days, chefs are very popular and have plenty of money to earn.

Liu Gaoshu smiled embarrassedly, "Keep a low profile, keep a low profile."

After dinner, I didn’t rush to wash the dishes because it was raining and the faucet in the corner of the playground outside the cafeteria was not in use. Everyone was crowded at the two faucets outside the cafeteria and couldn’t wash everyone.

Wang Zhaozhao chose to take a nap, but Ren Tianan took out his textbook to study and called her.

Wang Zhaozhao laughed dryly, "Comrade squad leader, you need to combine work and rest. You still have to rest when it's time for lunch. Otherwise, if you doze off during class in the afternoon, you'll actually be at a disadvantage."

After saying that, he yawned.

Ren Tianan was silent for a moment, "You are right."

I immediately put away my textbooks and lay down.

Wang Zhaozhao was speechless. She felt that this person was just pretending and was waiting for her to say that.

"ah……"

She yawned again.

Whatever, go to sleep.

In the first class in the afternoon, Fu Weiyi walked into the classroom carrying the corrected papers.

"The results of this midterm exam are out. How do you think you did?" Fu Weiyi didn't rush to distribute the papers, but asked everyone a question first.

No one answered. Ren Tianan, the squad leader, glanced at Wang Zhaozhao and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Okay."

Hearing this, Fu Weiyi smiled.

"Very good. It seems that our class monitor, Ren Tianan, is very confident in himself."

Ren Tianan chuckled, "Teacher, I'm not confident in myself, I'm confident in my deskmate Wang Zhaozhao. Since everyone else failed, she must have gotten a perfect score."

Fu Weiyi: “……!”

Wang Zhaozhao: “……!”

Wang Zhaozhao, who was about to start reading the second-period Chinese textbook for third grade, was speechless. Her deskmate was worthy of being the class monitor. This conspicuous behavior made him look very capable.

"Yes!" Fu Weiyi nodded loudly. "Wang Zhaozhao did get full marks. So, Ren Tianan, do you think you got full marks? Or how many points do you think you got?"

She picked up a piece of paper with the grades of the whole class in two courses.

He looked up and down, as if trying to find Ren Tianan's name.

Comrade Xianyanbao felt a pang in his heart. It was so hard to find, could it not even be in the top ten?
