Chapter 10 Let's go study
The whole family is reunited.
Lin Su'e made 6 dishes and 1 soup: twice-cooked pork with garlic sprouts, braised pork, sweet and sour spare ribs, stir-fried eel, crucian carp with spicy sauce, stir-fried water spinach and kidney bean and pig's trotter soup.
Zhao Zhenyi opened his mouth wide: "Mom, did our family find gold?"
What kind of family is this, eating like this!
Lin Su'e laughed: "If there is gold, it's your mother's turn to pick it up?"
My second son is the calmest and most calculating one, and it is rare to see him lose his composure like this.
Zhao Zhenli showed disdain: "Second brother, look at your useless appearance, it's just a few pieces of meat~"
Zhao Zhenxin agreed: "That's right."
Zhao Yulan pouted and raised her chin proudly: "I've had enough."
Zhao Zhenli counted on his fingers: "This week, Mom made delicious food every day, crayfish in garlic sauce, braised pork intestines, fried seaweed snails, beer duck, pepper chicken..." Suddenly, he remembered something and blinked innocently: "Oh, I forgot, my second brother is at school and not at home."
Zhao Zhenren/Zhao Fenglan: “Puff!”
Zhao Zhenyi: “…”
Lin Su'e also wanted to laugh, but when she looked up and saw the resentful look in her second son's eyes, she looked away guiltily.
Haha, they were all accidents, all accidents.
"Cough, cough, cough." She cleared her throat and pretended to be calm: "Talk less and concentrate on eating." ”
After saying that.
She picked up a piece of braised pork and put it into Zhao Zhenyi's bowl and said gently, "You must be hungry after such a long journey. Eat more."
Zhao Zhenyi: "...Thank you, Mom."
He looked at Lin Su'e without blinking, picked up the braised pork, and took a big bite, as if biting an enemy's flesh. However, the next moment, he was seduced by the deliciousness of the braised pork and forgot everything and ate his meal in big mouthfuls.
Lin Su'e smiled complacently.
You are still a little naive to fight me~
The meal is over.
The family chatted while waiting in line to take a bath.
The Zhao family's house is not big, with a total of 4 rooms and 1 main room: Lin Su'e lives in one room, her two daughters and the fourth son Zhao Zhenxin live in one room, and the other three sons live in one room.
The kitchen is set outside the house.
The bathing area is just behind the kitchen, and a drainage ditch has been dug.
There is no toilet.
The toilets in the village are usually repaired with money contributed by several families.
Lin Su'e's family was renovated together with several nearby families, 500 meters away, next to the pigpen.
"Second brother, after the farm holiday, you will have your final exams soon, right?"
"Well, we have a holiday at the end of June."
She asked tentatively, "I remember it was going to be a month?"
In the 21st century, summer vacation basically ends in September. She vaguely remembered that the winter and summer vacations were only one month long, but she was not sure.
"It should be." Zhao Zhenyi nodded, then was silent for a moment and continued: "If I want to go to high school."
Lin Su'e immediately retorted: "There is no if, I must go to high school."
"Not only high school, you have to send me to college."
Zhao Zhenyi looked at her and said nothing.
Lin Su'e frowned: "Second brother, don't feel burdened. It's no problem for the family to support your studies."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
Zhao Zhenyi finally spoke up: "Mom, the fourth child and Yulan are both 8 years old. It's time to send them to school. It's too hard for my eldest brother to be alone at home. I'm coming back to help him."
A few years ago, Zhao Xiaosheng fell ill and all the family’s money was used for his treatment.
Zhao Zhenli was absent from school in the third grade, and Zhao Zhenxin and Zhao Yulan did not go to school either.
When it comes to food, it doesn’t cost much to eat better. This is incomparable to the cost of studying.
"I don't need you." Lin Su'e firmly objected: "Just study hard for me."
Zhao Zhenren walked into the hall with wet hair and agreed: "That's right, second brother, I'm at home."
"But……"
Lin Su'e interrupted: "No buts, I'm not dead yet, there's no need for you to sacrifice for the little one below."
The faces of the three elder ones, Zhao Zhenren, Zhao Zhenyi and Zhao Fenglan, changed drastically.
Zhao Zhenli and his three little ones also became well-behaved.
The atmosphere was somewhat frozen.
Lin Su'e sighed and softened her tone: "Don't worry, our family has money to support your studies."
"Not only the second child, but also Fenglan, the third child, the fourth child, and Yulan, all need to go to school."
Just when she was talking about this, she told him the arrangements she had already thought of.
Originally, I planned to talk about it after school starts in the second half of the year.
Zhao Zhenren was surprised: "Ah?"
Zhao Zhenyi frowned.
Zhao Fenglan: "I want to go to school too?!"
Zhao Zhenli made a bitter face: He hated studying the most.
Zhao Zhenxin and Zhao Yulan had never been to school and looked very confused.
Lin Su'e put her hand in her coat pocket and actually took out a wad of money from the system backpack.
"Look, Mom didn't lie to you."
Looking at this stack of big unity notes, at least two or three hundred, Zhao Zhenyi's eyes lit up.
At the same time, the mountain pressing on my heart disappeared.
Ever since his father passed away, the family's financial situation has deteriorated. He has thought about dropping out of school after finishing junior high school, but he is always unwilling to do so.
Because he has good grades.
The teacher said that if I keep up this learning state, I will have no problem getting into university.
College students are golden children. You should know that there is not a single college student in the entire Shuikou Village.
If he gets admitted into university, it will not only bring honor to his family, but his life will also be bright.
However, the family relies on the eldest brother to earn money, and his younger siblings are not yet in school. The eldest brother alone cannot support so many people.
If he continues to study, his younger brothers and sisters will not be able to study...
As a brother, he couldn't be so selfish.
Zhao Zhenren was surprised for a moment, but soon recovered.
Zhao Fenglan couldn't believe it.
Is there so much money at home?
Zhao Zhenli, Zhao Zhenxin and Zhao Yulan didn't feel anything. They were too young and didn't know the taste of money.
Lin Su'e quickly took it back.
Put it into space.
Lin Su'e laughed: "Now, you should be relieved, right?"
Zhao Zhenyi no longer refuted.
Zhao Fenglan raised her hand: "Mom, I won't go. My grades were not good to begin with, and I haven't read for a few years. I have already forgotten everything."
Lin Su'e refused: "We don't want you to be the top scholar. You can't do anything with just an elementary school diploma. At least you can go to junior high school~"
Zhao Fenglan asked cautiously: "What if I can't learn well in junior high school?"
Lin Su'e: "..."
After thinking about it, she didn't push too hard: "It's not necessary for you to do anything, just read it for a few days and see~"
snort!
Once you enter school, you will no longer have any control over what you do.
Countless ways of raising a baby suddenly came to her mind...
Zhao Fenglan had nothing to say: "Okay."
Seeing that his second sister was defeated, Zhao Zhenli couldn't hide his disappointment.
He didn't dare to speak any more, otherwise he would definitely have to eat a meal of "stir-fried bamboo shoots with meat".
…
Take a good bath.
Everyone went back to their rooms.
Zhao Zhenyi lay on the bed, his mind relaxed, enjoying a rare moment of relaxation and pleasure.
"Second brother, your shoes."
Zhao Zhenren's voice woke him up.
He looked over and saw his elder brother holding a pair of brand new Liberation shoes.
Zhao Zhenren explained: "Mom bought it for you."
Zhao Zhenyi was stunned.
Zhao Zhenren looked at his stunned brother and couldn't help laughing: "Are you stupid? Go and try it to see if it fits."
Zhao Zhenyi then took it and put it on mechanically, and it fit perfectly.
"That's good, no need to change."
"Brother, why did Mom suddenly think of buying me shoes? You..."
"Don't worry, we have them all."
Zhao Zhenren pointed to his bedside and said unhappily, "How do I know why mom bought us gifts? What's wrong? Don't you like it?"
Zhao Zhenyi shook his head without even thinking.
How can I not like it?
This was the first time he received a gift.
Looking at the new shoes for a long time, he smiled faintly: It turns out that receiving a gift is so happy~
Aside.
Zhao Zhenren glanced at him and dusted off his new shoes with care.
