Chapter 191 The more you talk, the more ridiculous it gets.
In particular, he was not happy about going to the countryside to study, so he deliberately doubled his monthly allowance to one hundred taels a month, and demanded that clothes for all four seasons be delivered on time. His aunt agreed to all of this.
Not to mention, his mother left him some property before she died. His mother was also an extraordinary person.
So, how could he, as the younger brother, ask his elder brother to lend him two taels of silver?
Shouldn't you take the initiative to give it to show your sincerity?
Erbao patted his shoulder and said, "That's very kind! I'll return it to you later."
We don't take advantage of younger brothers.
As the eldest brother, you should be magnanimous and dignified. How can you fleece your younger brothers?
After a while, it was noon.
Dabao and his friends have finished their exams.
While having dinner together, Erbao and the fat boy were both concerned about Dabao's grades and whether he had passed the exam.
Dabao smiled calmly and said, "Wait until the results are announced this afternoon."
At noon, we ate delicious braised rabbit meat together. There was a big box of it, covered in a leather bag, and it was still hot.
The little fat boy ate with great relish.
Erbao mentioned the matter of Duan Changdong's sister. Fearing that Dabao would accuse him of meddling, Erbao played the emotional card. "Brother, it's really pitiful. Duan Xiaoni is about the same age as our sister. I can't bear to hear about it. If my daughter was sold, I would fight to the death."
Dabao turned his gaze towards Duan Changdong.
After taking a look, he said nothing and just said, "I'll go with you guys tonight."
He was worried about two stupid idiots just giving two taels of silver to others.
But what if it’s true?
If you can save a child's life, it can be considered a good deed.
…
In the afternoon, the teacher came to announce the assessment results of the human-shaped class.
More than a dozen people were considered, and half of them passed the line and were admitted to the Di class.
Wang Xi's name is the first one, followed by the old monitor of the "Ren" class, etc...
Erbao and the little fat boy hugged each other excitedly to celebrate for Dabao.
The little fat boy didn’t know why Erbao was so excited. Anyway, Erbao was his boss, and if the boss was happy, he would be happy too.
Then, Dabao and his classmates who were admitted to the Di class packed their schoolbags and followed the teacher to the class's teaching room.
As soon as Dabao left, Erbao felt that he could breathe much more easily. When there is no tiger in the mountain, the monkey will be king.
Although it is only separated by a wall, the next door is the Di class, so it is not that far.
But it just feels different.
The little fat boy raised his arm and shouted, "Master, our old monitor is gone. Shouldn't we take advantage of the situation? No, strike while the iron is hot and elect a new monitor? A group of dragons cannot be without a leader for a day! Master!"
The boys in the "人" class responded with a howling sound like ghosts and wolves.
Even Xue Da and Xue Er, who were napping at the gate of Zhishu School, were awakened by the noise and looked up, not knowing what had happened.
The teacher of the "Renzi" class used a ruler to hit the desk again and again, which calmed the children down.
"Quiet, quiet!"
The naughty kids quieted down.
The teacher said, "There's no rush to choose class leaders. Let's draw up the list today and choose tomorrow. If you have any recommendations, please stand up and introduce yourself. If you have any recommendations, please raise your hands and speak."
As soon as these words were spoken, the children started making noise again.
The situation got out of control again.
The little fat boy was the first to raise his hand high. "Master, Master, I choose classmate Wang Yue. Classmate Wang Yue is generous and wins people over with his virtue. His academic performance is also good. He has a spirit of solidarity and friendship of mutual help. He is a role model for us to learn from!"
"I also choose Wang Yue..."
"I also choose Wang Yue..."
"Choose Wang Yue, I only respect him!"
…
Erbao stood up and clasped his fists one by one to greet his classmates who had chosen him, showing full of courtesy.
The teacher's eyes were shaking.
Bai Jinyang was getting anxious because no one had chosen him. He stood up and said, "Master, I choose myself. I'm older, taller, and stronger. I can help you move books and manage discipline in the teaching room. I'll beat up anyone who disobeys!"
With that said, no one would choose him anymore.
But it gave everyone a good start in recommending themselves.
"I choose myself too. I've been in the Human-shaped class for three years. In terms of qualifications, I'm the oldest. My goal is to become the class monitor and bring honor to my parents! Master! Please consider me."
"I choose myself too. I'm the deputy monitor. After the old monitor leaves, I should take over the monitor position. I have experience..."
"I think I can do it. Let me be the monitor for a day. I can go back and ask my parents for some extra spending money. Once they get it, I'll give the monitor position to you..."
The more you talk, the more bullshit and outrageous it becomes.
Everyone burst into laughter.
Bai Jinyang really wanted to recommend himself, and the others were just joking.
The children burst into laughter and pounded the tables and benches, having a lot of fun.
The Master clapped his hands on the wooden pillar several times before he stopped the revelry.
The afternoon class passed in laughter and joy.
When school was over, Erbao and his classmates in the "Ren" class left first and waited at the door of Dabao and his classmates' "Di" class.
The teacher of the Di class is even more annoying than the teacher of their Ren class. He keeps talking and talking until school is over!
I don’t know when the get out of class will end and school will be over.
Erbao and the little fat man discussed it and decided to go to Duan Changdong's house first to see what was going on.
The fat man said yes, it wasn't far, just in the alley where he lived. Duan Changdong was still waiting anxiously by the side.
The three of them set off, carrying their schoolbags and going to Duan Changdong's home.
It wasn’t too far after all, I arrived after walking two blocks.
The little fat man and Duan Changdong lived in Xinghua Lane. The little fat man lived in the front of the lane, and Duan Changdong lived at the end of the lane.
After Erbao and the fat boy became familiar with each other, they came to this alley to play more often, so they were no strangers to it.
The houses in front of Xinghua Lane are all spacious square houses with one or two courtyards and large tiled roofs. As you move towards the end of the lane, they become dilapidated, with low houses and low courtyard walls, made of earthen bricks, and uneven wooden windows. There are some shabby sundries hanging here and there on the courtyards, forming two extremes.
It is said that rich people live in front of Xinghua Lane and poor people live at the end of the lane, which is absolutely true.
The group of three arrived at Duan Changdong's house, which was a typical poor family.
The courtyard wall was low, made of adobe bricks, and the roof was covered with thatch. The yard was filled with broken things, and the inner door was half missing, leaking in the wind, while the other side was barely blocked by a rag curtain.
There was a little boy in the yard, playing with a wooden pony with his head down.
As soon as Duan Changdong entered the yard, he called out, "Mom, Mom, my classmate is here."
When the little boy heard Duan Changdong's voice, he raised his head. His little face was dirty, and two huge streams of snot were flowing into his mouth. He had a silly smile on his face and made excited babbling sounds from his mouth as he swallowed the snot.
