Pei Zheng received a cumulative penalty buff, and his penalty runs were scheduled on weekend nights.
Lu Nong was very satisfied with this arrangement. You know, her schedule had already planned all of Pei Zheng's time. Based on the principle of humanitarianism, she left Pei Zheng some breathing space, and he had two hours of free time every weekend night.
Unexpectedly, Pei Jianan and she have such a good tacit understanding.
During breakfast, Lu Nong thought of his three unlucky brothers and asked his godmother, "Godmother, did Xiao Zhang, Xiao Shen, and Xiao Jiang come to work on time yesterday?"
She deliberately glanced at Pei Zheng and then continued, "Don't be lenient with the performance evaluation form I gave you. Draw red flowers where they should be drawn and crosses where they should be drawn. After a month, we will post the evaluation forms on the bulletin board and let them be inspected by the people."
Mother Wu also glanced at Pei Zheng and said, "Hey, I'll remember this. I won't be soft-hearted."
"No, no, no, no!" the kid shouted.
“…”
Pei Ji'an touched Zizi's little head and said nothing about what Lu Nong said, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
Pei Zheng froze. Xiao Zhou lowered his head and took a sip of porridge, thinking that he must never offend his wife in the future. It was too cruel.
The wives think the bulletin board is too far away and don't like to go there, but the leaders like to look at it and go over to chat in their free time.
Pei Zheng and his gang of hooligans in the compound are fearless and can't even control their own mother. The only thing they are afraid of is their father's leather belt. Madam has a firm grasp on their vital points.
If I post that assessment form on the bulletin board, when the heads of various companies are chatting, they will see the assessment form and wonder, "Huh? Why is my kid's name on it?"
Take another look, huh? Why is there a black cross behind my kid's name? Why do the kids of Zhang/Shen/Jiang/Pei have more red flowers than my kid?
Damn it, you brought shame to me, I’m going to beat you up when I get home.
Even Pei Zheng couldn't escape. When other brothers returned home and were beaten by their fathers, could the leader not give Pei Zheng a symbolic beating?
Xiao Zhou thought about the probability of Pei Zheng getting beaten, while Pei Zheng shuddered. If time could go back, he would definitely tell himself not to mess with a woman named Lu. Even if time could go back a little, he would want to go back and tell himself who was robbing the toilet with the cunning woman named Lu: Run! You can't beat her.
Pei Zheng took a deep breath. Now was not the time to regret the past. If he wanted to find a way to solve the current trouble, he must not let Lu Nong post that useless form on the bulletin board. He had to save face. If Han Lu and his gang accidentally saw him, would he still be alive?
It really didn't work, so he secretly followed Lu Nong on the day she posted the notice board, and waited until she left and then tore it down when no one was around.
After breakfast, Lu Nong and Pei Zheng took the bus to school together. Pei Ji'an had to go back to work today and couldn't take them there.
In fact, Pei Zheng had a bicycle, and he once suggested taking Lu Nong to school in the morning, but Lu Nong firmly refused.
The back seat of a boy's bicycle, like the passenger seat of a man's, is reserved for the wife. As a stepmother, she can sit on it once or twice in an emergency, but it is not appropriate for her to sit on it every day to go to school.
And please, Pei Zheng is the male protagonist of the novel, so the back seat of his bicycle should be left to the female protagonist. The male protagonist must observe male ethics.
But when Pei Zheng heard Lu Nong say she wanted to take the bus, he didn't know what was wrong with him. He had a bike but didn't ride it, and insisted on taking the bus with her.
He was like a thief on the road, separating herself from the crowd everywhere. Whenever she spoke to others, he would stand by and eavesdrop like a door god. No, it was different. Other door gods were righteous and majestic, while Pei Zheng had a gloomy face as if people owed him two million. He scared people around them so much that they walked around them.
Lu Nong: “…”
When they arrived at school, they were about to part ways. Pei Zheng hesitated for a moment before speaking to Lu Nong, "Come to me if you have anything to say. If someone bullies you, ask someone to bring me a message and I'll come over right away."
Thinking of the gangsters he met in the photo studio last time and the men on the bus who were staring at Lu Nong, he even saw a few women going crazy at Lu Nong. Pei Zheng felt extremely resentful. What's the point of having a stepmother who is so pretty? Pretty can't make a living.
Lu Nong closed his eyes and nodded vigorously, then stood on tiptoe and patted Pei Zheng on the shoulder. Without any excuse, he said, "Don't worry. I would have planned this even if you didn't tell me. If something happens, who will do it if you don't?"
Pei Zheng: "...Thank you." You are worthy of me. If you were more polite, I would really suspect that you were threatened.
Lu Nong: "You're welcome. Here, this is your schedule. Take it."
She lowered her head, took out the class schedule she had prepared overnight from her schoolbag and handed it to Pei Zheng.
Pei Zheng was confused. Didn't Lu Nong insist on asking him for the class schedule? Why did he return it again? He took it and took a look.
“…”
"What is this!?" Pei Zheng looked at the schedule in disbelief, then at Lu Nong.
"Class schedule." Lu Nong pretended not to understand Pei Zheng's meaning, saying, "How come you don't even know this?"
"…I know this is my course schedule. What I'm asking is, why are there so many self-taught sophomore year content on it?"
Pei Zheng carefully checked the schedule again. He even had to use his rest time at night to study. "Are you still human? According to the content you arranged here, do I have any personal time?"
"Yes," Lu Nong pointed to a small blank box at the bottom of the schedule and said honestly, "Look, you can do whatever you want on weekend nights. Uh, but you just wasted it this morning."
Pei Zheng: “…”
This morning, five kilometers, punishment, dragged until the weekend.
Pei Zheng choked up, thinking of the trap he had set himself this morning. He tried hard to suppress the urge to strangle Lu Nong. All the facts proved that if he went against the woman surnamed Lu, he would be the one who would suffer in the end.
To make matters worse, Lu Nong added, "Don't try to be lazy. I will check your progress. Our goal is to complete freshman and sophomore courses this year, and junior and senior courses next year, and strive to get your degree certificate in advance. Maybe you can also take the postgraduate entrance examination."
"Come on!" Lu Nong gestured with his hands, full of ambition as if he had foreseen that moment.
Pei Zheng's current state was portrayed as lifeless eyes, a look of despair and a dead fish. He walked away without saying a word, holding his schedule, his steps unsteadily. At first glance, his back looked somewhat desolate and miserable.
Lu Nong shook his head. It must be an illusion. I heard Pei Zheng was a top student. How could a top student not like studying? He must be too excited.
This was another busy day for Lu Nong. Except for eating and taking naps, he was studying all the time. He not only studied the content of his grade, but also attended the senior year's classes after his freshman and sophomore years. After the classes, he went to the library to review and organize the various knowledge he had learned in the day.
Lu Nong has become famous in the entire history department this time, and there is only one reason for this: she is so studious.
It's not that other people aren't hardworking. In fact, most of the students who are admitted to this top university in the country are both hardworking and smart. However, most people have limited energy. In addition, the school itself arranges courses according to the maximum amount of knowledge that these talented students can absorb. People with slightly more average qualifications study very hard and may not be able to keep up without staying up late to study hard.
Of course, there are people who have spare time to learn other things after completing the courses arranged by the school step by step. These people are the best of the best. However, even this group of people cannot match Lu Nong's learning workload.
At most, everyone continued to study along a systematic path, in a planned and step-by-step manner, so as not to mix up the knowledge they learned. However, Lu Nong was very strange. She took courses from four grades at the same time, accepting all of them and never refusing anything. Even so, there was no sign of reluctance on her face.
Lu Nong's brutality is evident from this.
Cheng Duoduo tried to keep up with her. She went to class wherever Lu Nong went, and went to the library to study when Lu Nong went to the library. As a result, she successfully made herself depressed.
In the school library, Cheng Duoduo looked at Lu Nong with complicated feelings. She was originally a very proud person. In this day and age, being admitted to a university is something to be proud of, and being admitted to the best university in the country is even more proud. Among all her brothers and sisters, she was the only one who was admitted to Peking University. Her parents were happy and her siblings were jealous. She was so proud that her tail was almost flying up to the sky.
But after only two days, he was beaten by Lu Nong and there was nothing left.
Some people in one class scoffed at Lu Nong's study method, thinking that she was either pretending or would give up after two days of study. Everyone was waiting to see Lu Nong make a fool of herself.
Cheng Duoduo encountered people who said sarcastic words several times, and she especially wanted to go up to them and tell them to wake up, because some people are born better than you, and just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't.
She followed Lu Nong the whole time for the past two days. Lu Nong listened attentively in class and never organized her notes. But in the library, she could take notes of several subjects at the same time. What she wrote down must be a complete knowledge system, which means that she not only remembered it but also organized it in her mind.
Cheng Duoduo compared the notes he took during class with those of Lu Nong, and found that their levels were much different. When he asked Lu Nong about things he didn't understand in class, Lu Nong always gave the most perfect answers.
What is true cannot be false, and what is false cannot be true. A little probing will reveal that Lu Nong is truly a genius who can do multiple things at the same time.
"That's all for today."
Lu Nong saw that it was getting late outside, and she would miss the last bus if she was any later. She closed her notebook and stretched with unfinished thoughts, planning to go home at night and continue reading.
Cheng Duoduo came back to his senses, quickly stood up and packed up, "Oh, OK, let's go."
"Do you want to take my newly organized notes home to continue studying?" Lu Nong looked at Cheng Duoduo with sparkling eyes.
At first, Lu Nong felt that Cheng Duoduo was a little too superficial, but after spending two days together, Lu Nong successfully saw one of her strengths - she loved learning. He followed her around, asked her questions, and was in a high mood for learning. He was a good comrade and classmate who could study with her.
Cheng Duoduo: “…” Thank you, that’s not necessary.
...In the end, Cheng Duoduo accepted Lu Nong's notes with tears in her eyes. In her heart, she already regarded Lu Nong as a genius. Since she was lucky enough to be friends with Lu Nong, she naturally couldn't let her down.
Cheng Duoduo gritted her teeth in her heart. Isn't it just going home to continue studying? Study, even if you don't sleep, you have to study.
Lu Nong didn't know what Cheng Duoduo was thinking, and left the school with her. When she saw Pei Zheng waiting outside the door, she suddenly realized that it was not good. Cheng Duoduo still had feelings for Pei Zheng.
However, unexpectedly, Cheng Duoduo said goodbye to Lu Nong with a few notebooks that she had given her, and said solemnly with a fist, "Sister Nong Nong, don't worry, I will never let you down, and I will study hard."
Then she walked straight past Pei Zheng, not noticing that Pei Zheng was so big in front of her.
Lu Nong: "..." Awe.
The charm of learning is so strong that even men can be forgotten.
Pei Zheng, who was listening to the conversation between the two, said: "..." Why are there so many psychopaths around Lu Nong?
Tsk, maybe it's another one who was driven crazy by Lu Nong.
After returning home, Pei Zheng applied to hold his brother to study, but was ruthlessly rejected by Lu Nong.
Shen Jiming, Jiang Yu, and Zhang Kaiping came to play basketball with Pei Zheng, but were ruthlessly rejected by Lu Nong. The three had to stay and help Wu Ma with work, and after work they had to learn cultural knowledge with Pei Zheng.
The key is that they can't resist yet - Pei Zheng has already told the three of them about Lu Nong's heartbroken speech in the morning, which is so heartbreaking that anyone who sees it will cry.
After the stepson got the younger brothers involved, Lu Nong extended his evil hands to the stepmother, the son, and the son's beloved Xiaobai.
At the dinner table, Lu Nong proposed that starting from tomorrow, the old lady should exercise with her every morning or evening, her son should learn to eat with chopsticks and dress himself, and Xiaobai should learn to poop at a designated place.
Every family member except Pei Ji'an has an assessment quantification table.
The old lady: "..." She never thought that the fire could burn her.
"Miss, I don't need it. You see, I'm so old." The old lady was so scared that she even called her a young lady in the old days.
Lu Nong shook her head, "That won't work, mom, you see even Bao Bao and Xiao Bai have tasks, you are so old that you should set an example and clock in every day. Our family assessment quantitative table is posted downstairs. If you complete the task, you will draw a little red flower, and if you fail to complete the task, you will draw a black cross."
Zi Zi imitated Lu Nong's words, "X!"
Pei Zheng looked at his brother sympathetically, little brother, your mother is crazy, she doesn't even let a dog go.
Shen Jiming and the other two lowered their heads to eat, silently thinking in their hearts that they couldn't see them.
Only Pei Ji'an put down the tonic soup that Wu Ma prepared for him. Yes, the old lady has completely stopped hiding it. The tonic soups for each family member are different. Lu Nong and the old lady herself drink the kind that replenishes qi and blood, Pei Zheng drinks the kind that strengthens bones and replenishes calcium, and Pei Ji'an drinks the kind that replenishes kidneys and strengthens yang.
"Am I the only one without a mission?" Pei Ji'an looked at Lu Nong.
Lu Nong was angry when she thought of what happened last night. Nini was sensitive to touch during the day. She looked away and didn't really want to look at the old pervert.
Humph, she thought about it. She would go to sleep with Zizi's mother tonight and stay away from you, the old pervert!
But since the old pervert took the initiative to bump into her hands, don't blame her for being cruel, haha.
"...Okay, you've been injured and you're weak, let your godmother make another bowl of tonic soup starting tomorrow." Lu Nong said.
Pei Ji'an: "..."
"Puff——" This is Pei Zheng and Jiang Yu.
"Ahem..." This is Shen Jiming.
Zhang Kaiping scratched his head, looked at this and that, lowered his head and dared not say a word.
Lu Nong saw that his goal was achieved, and continued, "As for the study tasks, aren't you learning English? Check in every day to memorize 200 words, learn 20 grammars, and read 10 pages of English classics. How about I check every night?"
? ? Pei Zheng looked puzzled. His father was an excellent graduate of the military academy. He was fluent in Russian, English and even local dialects. Why did he have to learn English now?
Pei Jinan ignored his son's gaze and nodded calmly, "Okay."
After dinner, everyone in the family sighed except Zizi and Pei Jinan. Only Lu Nong went to the study room to continue studying.
At 2:30 in the morning, Lu Nong fell asleep on the desk again... There was no class tomorrow, Saturday. Lu Nong had an appointment with Sister Qin to attend a tea party. He originally planned to study until three o'clock.
This time Pei Ji'an did not try to wake her up. He naturally carried her to the bed in the bedroom. It was more comfortable to sleep on the bed than lying on the table. Lu Nong adjusted her body and slept more soundly.
Pei Ji'an stared at Lu Nong for a while, walked out of the bedroom, and came back with a basin of water in his hand. He walked to the head of the bed and half-held Lu Nong in his arms, patiently wiping her cheeks and hands.
Pei Ji'an's movements were slow and gentle. Lu Nong felt comfortable and cooperated with him to stretch his hand on the side of her face. After wiping, she even began to snore.
In the middle of the night, Lu Nong had a string in her head, which woke her up from her sleep again.
The same anxious posture as last night, whether it was her or Pei Ji'an, her legs were in the wrong place, and Pei Ji'an's hands were still in the wrong place last night.
She was wearing pajamas.
Lu Nong looked up at the sky, her eyes were lifeless, she had no desire for life, and her eyes were as unrestrained as Pei Zheng in the morning.
She turned her head to look at Pei Ji'an and said faintly: "Are you awake?"
Pei Ji'an didn't say anything, but just held Lu Nong in his arms and said, "Go to sleep, don't you have to get up early tomorrow to exercise with your godmother?"
Lu Nong: "..." Your grandfather's banana, pineapple and cantaloupe.
She stopped hugging Pei Ji'an's arm and just stood there, slowly extending an internationally accepted hand gesture to Pei Ji'an in the dark.
Pei Ji'an didn't know if he understood, but Lu Nong thought that even if he did, he wouldn't care.
"Humph!" Lu Nong became angrier and angrier. She kicked him and said through gritted teeth, "Are you like this every night?"
"No," Pei Ji'an said in a neither high nor low voice, as calm as last night.
After a while, he sighed and said, "You ran into my arms by yourself in the beginning."
This sentence successfully made Lu Nong speechless, but then Pei Ji'an said:
"Let's talk about the reason, Nong Nong. You asked the old lady to make soup every day. Today, you said you want to make two bowls. I am a normal man."
This was the first time Pei Ji'an called Lu Nong's nickname. His voice was low and gentle, with a hint of helplessness. Unfortunately, Lu Nong's mind was full of wanting to clear his name, and he didn't hear anything else.
"I, I... I told you that it wasn't me who asked my stepmother to make tonic medicine!"
"What about tonight?"
Lu Nong: "..." She was simply dumb and bitter, unable to say anything.
Forget it, destroy this ruthless world.
Lu Nong closed her eyes and told herself that it was nothing. Just wait. When you are healed, she will take advantage of you sooner or later.
When she was about to fall asleep again, she finally remembered that Pei Ji'an seemed to have called her by her nickname. Should she change the way she addressed Pei Ji'an?
The next morning, in order to exercise with her godmother, Lu Nong got up at six o'clock. When she got up, Pei Ji'an was not at home. The bed and quilt on one side were neatly folded.
Pei Ji'an has been busier these two days than before he was injured. She heard from her godmother that when she was not at home, Pei Ji'an did not come back for lunch.
Lu Nong sat on the bed in a daze, thinking about how to treat (torture) Pei Ji'an in the future.
After thinking for a long time, she couldn't come up with a good idea. Damn it, let him drink an extra bowl of tonic soup, and finally the old pervert Pei Ji'an actually used this reason to shift the blame, and punished herself. Is there any justice?
Lu Nong Nong said she couldn't figure it out. She pounded her hands angrily and got up angrily.
When she went downstairs, she saw that only her godmother was picking beans. Lu Nong looked around, "Godmother, isn't Pei Zheng up yet?"
The old lady shuddered when she saw Lu Nong, and she shouted Amitabha in her heart. According to her understanding of Lu Nong, the young lady would sleep in on Saturdays and weekends. She even deliberately didn't knock on the door to deliver soup in the morning, just to let the young lady sleep a little longer and forget what she said yesterday about dragging her, an old woman, to exercise.
Unexpectedly, the young lady got up. The old lady was now terrified, afraid that she would mention the exercise, so she quickly diverted the blame, "Xiao Zheng, he hasn't gotten up yet, he's still sleeping, Nongnong, you hurry up and wake him up, there are a lot of things waiting for him to do at home, by the way, isn't he scheduled to study? Yes, yes, study hard."
"..."
Fuck you, isn't it too obvious?
But Lu Nong didn't expose the old lady, and decided to deal with Pei Zheng first.
She went upstairs and knocked on Pei Zheng's door. Pei Zheng opened the door after a few knocks, gritted his teeth and said, "I know, I'll go call the three of them now."
Good brothers share happiness and hardships. Since he can't beat Lu Nong, he can call a few more people to accompany him.
Tsk tsk, Lu Nong shook his head. This is pure socialist brotherhood. Zhang Kaiping and the others should thank Pei Zheng, right?
The old lady didn't escape Lu Nong's clutches after all. She held her and exercised with her for half an hour.
After half an hour, Lu Nong finally let Mother Wu go. Mother Wu and Pei Zheng looked at each other. It was like they appreciated each other. From this day on, the relationship between the grandparents and grandchildren reached a new level.
At eight o'clock in the morning, Lu Nong began to put on makeup and prepare for the party.
Sister Qin told her that every gathering of military wives in the compound was hosted by Sister Zheng of Deputy Division Commander Ye. Sometimes there would be a theme, such as organizing military wives to work, providing food to comfort soldiers, and of course, helping officers and soldiers who had no lovers to find a wife.
This time, she heard that several sons in the compound had found girlfriends, and Sister Zheng's son happened to be one of them. Sister Zheng thought about it and simply invited everyone to get together, so that she could take the opportunity to test the weight of her future daughter-in-law.
Several other families thought this was a good idea and responded one after another. They also called their daughters-in-law who had not yet married into the family to join in the fun. Now, even if the families had no intention of competing with each other originally, they had to compare in the end.
How to compare? Appearance, dressing, conversation, and interpersonal relationships.
When respecting others, you should respect their clothes first, and when it comes to dressing up, you will definitely start by rolling up your sleeves.
So even though this was Lu Nong's first appearance, she was not the protagonist, so there was no need for her to dress very ostentatiously, and of course there was no need for her to deliberately look ugly. Sister Qin once said that there were several military wives who came from well-off families, and their dressing styles were no worse than Lu Nong's.
Besides, she is more than ten years older than Pei Ji'an, so it would be bad if she dressed in a way that made her look younger. It would be better if she dressed maturely without stealing the spotlight.
Lu Nong picked a soft white skirt that would not go wrong. This kind of skirt would make people look quiet and ladylike, and indirectly make them look a few years older. Her hair was neatly tied behind her head with a rubber band, nothing else fancy. She only put on skin care products on her face, not even lipstick.
However, Lu Nong's lips are naturally red and her teeth are white, so there is not much difference whether she wears makeup or not.
She went to Sister Qin's house first. Sister Qin took her around, looked her up and down and said, "You've exposed your forehead today. Why do I think you look better?"
Then he looked at Lu Nong's skirt and said, "Your clothes are too plain. I can see that you don't want to be in the limelight. The one from the Shen family who likes to wear red skirts doesn't care whether she steals the limelight from others. Sister Zheng is a gentle person and won't care about these details. Besides, sister, it's hard for you not to be in the limelight with your looks. Let's just ignore it. We are proud of our good looks. Besides, your attitude is already here. It's hard for them to complain even if they forgive you!"
Lu Nong was moved after hearing this. Sister Qin’s values were simply too positive.
Mrs. Zheng's house is just behind Sister Qin's house. It was still early, so Sister Qin gave Lu Nong some basic knowledge about the closeness of the family relationships and the personalities of military wives. Half an hour later, the two of them went out.
When Lu Nong and Sister Qin arrived, several people were already chatting.
When they saw them come in, the women in the living room all looked over and there was a moment of silence in the air.
