Back to the third grade

Chapter 26

At six o'clock in the morning, Lin Mei's biological clock woke her up on time.She got up and opened the curtains, it was still dark outside.Quietly turn on the desk lamp, first go to the kitchen to warm up the leftover porridge and steamed buns from last night.

Then turn on the water heater to wash.Covering her face with a slightly scalded towel like this and then wiping it vigorously, a piercing pain made her gasp!
She quietly ran back to her room again, took out the mirror to take a look, and the two bright red pimples on her nose were saying to her: Hi
Mother Lin got up at seven o'clock, and breakfast was ready by then.Lin Mei also fried a ham and egg and shredded potatoes with vinegar.Ham and eggs is to cut the ham into cubes and put it down when scrambling the eggs, so that the chicken can be fried with only a little oil, and it is not too bad, because there is oil in the ham.Less oil and less salt, is a very healthy way to eat.

Mother Lin saw the new pimples on her daughter's face at a glance, and immediately came over and held her face up to the lamp to look at it for a long time, and said regretfully, "It's okay, I'll bring you some facial cleanser before I come back today, I heard from a little girl in our unit that there is a brand that is particularly effective, called Ke Ling Ke Li."

"No need." Lin Mei calmly drank porridge and ate steamed buns. She remembered that she used to have pimples on her chin and was in a bad mood for a day, but after puberty, it seldom developed. She has experience with this and said: "Take it A bar of sulfur soap will do.”

Mother Lin was surprised: "You want to use that to wash your face? No! That will burn your face."

"No, mom, don't worry." Lin Mei affirmed.

At a certain period, the most glorious trend of using domestic products emerged on the Internet.Lin Mei was not immune to the common customs, and found a lot of domestic products such as Yu Meijing to use. Although there was no particularly outstanding effect, it was about the same, and it was fine for daily use.

Taking advantage of that fad, Lin Mei learned a lot of simple tricks from others.

For example, acne, that is, acne, the first thing to do is to reduce inflammation, and then clean the pores after removing inflammation.So ordinary soap and sulfur soap are better and safer than facial cleanser.Compared with sterilization, facial cleanser is definitely not as good as soap.Sulfur soap is more effective in killing mites.

This morning, after she discovered that she had pimples, she used the soap at home and the bath flower balls in the bath, rubbed out a rich foam, and then gently scrubbed the face. After 1 minute, the foam on the face was washed off.

Went out at 07:30, arrived at school at [-]:[-], Zhou Jie and Zhu Hai and the others arrived.Zhu Hai wanted to take a bus. After Teacher Zheng said that she had to arrive at school at [-]:[-], she had to take the previous bus. Now she arrived at school at [-]:[-], and she went to school with Teacher Zheng several times. Face.

As soon as Zhu Hai saw her, he said, "I met Teacher Zheng again today!" When he entered the teaching building, Teacher Zheng saw her and said, "Go and open the door." Then he gave the key to her. she is gone.

Zhu Hai felt wronged for coming earlier than those on duty.

Seeing the new pimples on Lin Mei's face, the two friends were very gentle and didn't mention a word.There are so many people with acne in the class now, it seems that they all got up all at once.For example, Gao Yuan, his face was covered with pimples overnight!

But his appearance is much like Gao Yuan in Lin Mei's impression.She said, why was Gao Yuan a little unfamiliar before?Because when she first came back, his face was too clean.

When Lu Lu came, she also saw the pimples on Lin Mei's face, and said quietly, "The medicine I take is very effective and cheap. Ask your mother to buy it for you. It's called dexamethasone."

Lin Mei remembered the medicine and immediately said, "Does this medicine contain hormones? Be careful not to use too much."

Lu Lu also has abundant pimples, and now she thinks it's because she is too fat, so she is trying to lose weight.Mother Lu couldn't hold her back, so she bought her slimming tea.

Lin Mei told her that acne may also be related to mites, why not try sulfur soap, and don't use too much facial cleanser, at most twice a week, otherwise it will damage the skin, and it will become a vicious circle.

After a few girls exchanged their skin care experience for 10 minutes, at 07:30, Teacher Zheng arrived, and everyone immediately went back to their seats to prepare for morning self-study.

Teacher Zheng told me bad news today.

"The Education Bureau issued a notice saying that in order to reduce the burden on fresh graduates, this year's physical education exam has been brought forward. But the specific time has not been announced yet. It may be the end of March, it may be the end of April, or it may be the end of May."

There was an ominous premonition in everyone's heart.

Lin Mei had a little impression. She remembered that it was not the season to wear skirts during the physical examination, but it was already very hot, so it should be in April and May.

Teacher Zheng said: "For the sake of everyone's sports performance, the school decided to require everyone to do physical exercise every day. From now on, everyone will go to the playground for a run in the last self-study period every night."

Ah ah ah ah ah……

Everyone wailed.

Teacher Zheng stood still on the stage, raising his voice and laughing: "No more. Go downstairs after reading the news, and you can leave school after running. Okay, class starts now! Open the textbook!"

Teacher Zheng's cruelty made everyone kneel down.After a whole day of hard work in class, the start of the news broadcast meant that school was about to end, and everyone happily changed seats to watch the news with their friends.

When the news starts to show that the people of the world are really miserable, bursts of laughter can always erupt in the classroom.I'm relieved to see that you're not doing well.

Teacher Zheng suddenly appeared at the door of the classroom, and the hearts of the people sitting in a mess in the class were almost jumping out of fright!

Teacher Zheng: "Don't forget to go for a run in a while!" She glanced at everyone sitting in disorder in the classroom, showing a forgiving face of "I'll pretend I didn't see it today", "Remember, monitor. Don't speak too loudly! You're disturbing the class next door."

Teacher Zheng left after speaking.

After the news was over and the weather forecast was broadcast, Zheng Kai came out and said, "Okay, let's all go for a run, go fast."

Everyone was listless and sparsely packed their schoolbags, and some people stood in front of the TV to bid farewell. Zheng Kai urged him repeatedly, but Gao Yuan stood in front of the TV and said, "Leave after reading the weather forecast."

Zheng Kai came over and sternly unplugged the TV. When the TV screen went black, Gao Yuan made a long cut.

The lights on the second and first floors have been turned off a long time ago, which makes people a little scared.After some classes in the third grade also turned off the lights, Zhou Yu, who had almost reached the first floor, stopped hesitantly and said, "How about we go and get the schoolbags? After a while, everyone will be gone, so let's go up again..." How scary ah.

Looking around, most of the people are carrying schoolbags, think about it for a while, and then go upstairs in the dark, in the empty classrooms and corridors.

Thinking of this, Lin Mei and the other five quickly ran up to get their schoolbags.

Zheng Kai was doing the best mobilization in the class. When he saw them coming up again, "Why are you here? You don't need to take your schoolbag."

The girls didn't listen to him, they took their schoolbags and ran downstairs.

Some people started to run in the playground, and the physical education teacher, Teacher Ma, was there, and the head teacher of the foreign class was standing by the aisle to help the students read their schoolbags and bring cheers.

Lin Mei and the others walked over, throwing their schoolbags on the ground casually, and their coats on the horizontal bar beside the playground.The single and parallel bars are covered with overcoats and schoolbags.

"Our teacher Zheng left quite early recently." Zhu Hai said.

"Maybe you have something to do at home?" Zhou Jie began to do warm-up exercises very seriously.With her, all five of them turned their knees and ankles at the edge of the playground.

Lin Mei was thinking about what happened to Mr. Zheng's family recently, but she didn't remember it.

Teacher Zheng's absence is all due to self-consciousness.Although Zheng Kai is very enthusiastic, but the playground is so big and the runway is so long, and he has to run himself, it is impossible to control everyone.So after one lap, the people in the third class had already slipped away.

Seeing the movement, Lin Mei also wanted to slip away, so she asked Zhou Que, who was running beside her, "Let's go?"

Zhou Yu glanced at the school gate: "Can't you push the bicycle out? The door hasn't opened yet. Why don't you go first?"

Lin Mei shook her head, "I'll go with you." Besides, running is also necessary, she just thinks running at night is a bit silly.If the school asks everyone to come and run early in the morning...it is estimated that fewer people will respond.

Zhu Hai ran to the side of the two of them and whispered, "I heard they can go out, why don't we go and see."

Zhou Que asked in surprise, "A bicycle can also walk?"

"Yes, I see Gao Yuan and the others have slipped away." Zhu Hai affirmed.

Guo Xinxin said at this time: "You all go, and I will go too."

Under the cover of the night, the five of them took advantage of Zheng Kai on the other side of the runway, quietly went to get their schoolbags and coats and fled.

When running all the way to the bicycle shed, everyone was laughing.

There is a light bulb hanging outside the bicycle shed, which can only illuminate a square inch of the place.Going in and looking for your own bicycle depends entirely on your eyesight. Zhou Yu and Guo Xinxin pushed the bicycles out, and Lu Lu has already found a way out of the school.

The teacher in the school's communication room lives behind the school. He came home for dinner after school, and came to open the door on time at eight o'clock.No one is here at the moment.

Lu Lu pulled the iron gate open forcefully and said, "You can go out!" The iron chain that fastened the school gate was opened to a width of [-] to [-] centimeters, enough for people and cars to pass through.She first squeezed out sideways with great effort, and then took Lin Mei's and Zhu Hai's schoolbags.

Lin Mei and Zhu Hai helped Zhou Jie and Guo Xinxin push the car out, and the five of them left just like that.

It was only seven forty by the watch.

"It's so early today!" Zhu Hai said, "Shall we eat rice noodles?"

It's rare to come out early, and it would be a pity not to take this opportunity to play.It happened that everyone was hungry, so Yizhi agreed to eat rice noodles.

There are several rice noodles sellers in the vegetable market, and one also sells small wontons. You can also order rice noodles and wontons at the same price.Five people pushed their bicycles, but there was no one at the stall.The proprietress smiled when she saw them, and hurried over to greet them: "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat? There are also sesame seed cakes."

Both Lin Mei and Lu Lu shook their heads. Lin Mei said, "Rice noodles and wontons." Lu Lu said, "I just want rice noodles."

This store will also put two quail eggs, Zhu Hai and Zhou Qing both ordered sesame seed cakes.Zhou Que said: "My dad said that he would be home late for today's meeting, and asked me to eat something outside before going back."

Zhu Hai walked around the stall, and asked the boss to add a handful of wide noodles for her. When she came back, she sat down and said, "When I go back, my dad has already eaten all the food. There is nothing delicious when I go back."

After a while, the rice noodles came out, and the five of them buried their heads in eating.When Lu Lu took it, it was like taking medicine, picking one by one.Seeing this, Lin Mei thought she didn't really want to eat it, but at the end of the meal, Lu Lu drank all the soup, and asked the boss to add more soup just like Zhu Hai.

The rice noodle soup in this restaurant is boiled on a chicken rack, with a layer of golden chicken oil floating on it.

After eating and going out, Lu Lu touched her stomach and said, "I ate too much again."

Lin Mei suddenly realized, and comforted her: "It's okay, it's all soup."

"I wanted to eat slowly to be full." Lu Lu was very sad, and said to Lin Mei: "I almost bought a sesame seed cake just now!"

Lin Meixin felt sorry for her, and patted her and said, "I understand." So in the end, she drank an extra bowl of soup to comfort her stomach.

She and Lu Lu rarely spoke before.

Today, the two suddenly found a common topic!Lu Lu was a little interested and asked Lin Mei, "How much do you weigh now?"

Lin Mei's heart skipped a beat, and she deceived herself and said, "I haven't had a scale for a long time!" The weight and the like are all floating clouds!
Lu Lu said: "I'm only 1.5 meters five, and the scale was almost one hundred and one last time! My mother said that if I get fatter, I won't be able to buy pants."

Lin Mei was terrified when she heard that.

Lu Lu said: "Wearing pants that fit the waist, the trouser legs are all too fat! You have to change the trousers before you can wear them."

Lin Mei hesitated for a moment, and spoke from experience: "...you can look at the boys' pants, their size is big."

Lu Lu was taken aback, "Really?"

Lin Meinei said with a full face: "...I have a younger brother, and his small size is bigger than my large size." So if women's clothing XL can't fit, men's clothing S is too big.So she used to use men's clothing S to boost her confidence.

Black history! 〒▽〒

Lu Lu thought for a while, "Then I'll let my mother go and have a look."

Soon, Lu Lu discovered that she and Lin Mei also had a lot to talk about!For example, she is prone to hunger, but she doesn't want to eat bread because she will get fat.Lin Mei told her that when she was hungry, she could bring some snacks with her, such as raisins, which would relieve her hunger, because it was very sweet, and a few grains would last for a long time.

And she finally found jeans that fit!Mother Lu bought it for her!It is indeed men's clothing, except that the trouser legs are a little longer, everything else is very good.When Lu's mother was happy, she bought two of them and asked her to change them.

Lu Lu said to Lin Mei: "Are you losing weight too? Actually, you don't need to lose weight, you are much better than me."

Lin Mei: "...I have lost weight before." Losing weight is a lifelong task.

Regarding the pimples, the two on Lin Mei's nose disappeared quickly, but then popped up again on her chin and forehead.

The pimples on her face have never grown in a large area, and there are always one or two pimples occasionally.

Although Mama Lin bought sulfur soap after listening to her advice, she also bought facial cleanser, "Use them all and see which one works. Let's do both."

Lu Lu was very envious of Lin Mei's less pimples.She said: "I have paid attention to it, I don't eat spicy food, I don't eat chili pepper, I don't eat ginger..."

Lin Mei comforted her: "When I go to high school, I won't have any."

Lu Lu shook her head and said dejectedly, "My mother said that my father had pimples when he was in a relationship with her. She said it was hereditary..."

Lin Mei: "...sorry."

Running every night was not going so well.Teacher Zheng soon found out that the students in the class adjusted their school time spontaneously. After watching the news broadcast, they took their schoolbags down, ran half a lap and then left.This is also a common phenomenon in other classes.The school adjusted it, and changed it to run in the morning in advance. Whether it is morning or evening, you can run at any time, but you must run three times a day.

Teacher Ma said to everyone: "This is not to harm you. If you keep up with your physical strength, you will be able to do everything with your hands."

Teacher Zheng also mobilized everyone to come and run early in the morning.Lin Mei was stopped by Teacher Zheng in the corridor.

Teacher Zheng said: "Your house is close. It would be nice to come here 10 minutes early in the morning and go for a few laps on the playground. Sports also account for sixty points."

Lin Mei unknowingly promised Teacher Zheng to come for a run early in the morning.

On the other hand, Mother Lin was not very happy, "You went for a run right after eating in the morning, and your stomach doesn't feel bad? Your teacher is really good too. Just pick the soft persimmons and pinch them."

Teacher Zheng must find a few typical ones if he wants to encourage the whole class to run.

Lin Mei also felt that running just after breakfast in the morning was not good for her health, but running on the playground in the dark at night was not only a question of stupidity, but also worried about her safety.Everyone went home and she was running at school alone?This unscientific.

So although she agreed to Teacher Zheng, she still decided to check the situation first.

The next morning, she was 5 minutes earlier than before and left the house at [-]:[-]. When she arrived at school, she saw Zheng Kai, Mei Lu, He Qi and other class committee members running neatly on the playground.

Seeing Lin Mei, Mei Lu stopped and waved at her: "Lin Mei, come here!"

At this time, they are comrades-in-arms in the same trench!

Lin Meiting felt sad for the class committee.She patted her schoolbag and shouted, "I'll go upstairs and put a schoolbag!"

Zheng Kai said to He Qi: "Go and give Lin Mei the key."

He Qi stopped panting, and went to the schoolbag to find the class key in Zheng Kai's schoolbag, and called Lin Mei: "Here, just open the door."

When Lin Mei arrived in the classroom, the door was already open.It turned out that the one on duty had already arrived.There should be three keys in the class, one for Mr. Zheng, one for the on-duty staff, and one for Zheng Kai himself.

Baobao Wang was about to take out the trash when he saw Lin Mei: "Go for a run?"

Lin Mei put down her schoolbag: "Why don't you go?"

Baby Wang was carrying two trash canes: "Hey, I didn't take out the trash last night."

In the past, we used to clean up after school and take out the garbage. Later, when school ended later and later, no one would like to take out the garbage in the dark, so we changed it to take out the garbage on duty in the morning.

In the morning, it will be poured twice.

After Lin Mei finished running and came up with Zheng Kai and the others, Wang Baobao carried two garbage betels to take out the newly cleaned garbage.

Lin Mei was somewhat under a lot of pressure when she came back from the class committee.After she sat down, Guo Xinxin said softly, "I collected the physics papers just now, and I took them out for you."

Lin Mei said thank you.

Guo Xinxin saw that her head was covered with sweat, and gave her a napkin: "Did Teacher Zheng tell you to run?"

Lin Mei nodded.Only the class committee member and her went for a run early in the morning, and none of the other classmates went.Mr. Zheng said it all, but everyone seems to be a little more courageous than before. Anyway, they can run in the morning or at night. Everyone dragged it until the evening in a fair manner, and no one cares about it at night.

Lin Mei said it was jogging in the morning, rather than walking.She always runs and walks, taking care not to feel sick to her stomach while running.

Melu was with her, and the two now often talked while running.

Mei Lu asked her, "Which school do you want to take?" In the last mock exam ranking, she and Mei Lu had a difference of [-] points, and the rankings were close to each other.

"Province six." Lin Mei said.

Facing Mei Lu, a student who is such a good student, Lin Mei felt that she didn't have to hide her clumsiness, just tell the truth.

"I originally wanted to take the provincial one exam, but I was afraid that I would fail the exam, so to be on the safe side, my mother asked me to apply for provincial six." Mei Lu said, holding Lin Mei's arm: "Maybe we can be classmates for another three years. .”

Lin Mei smiled and said, "Okay."

When it comes to running, everyone just responds negatively.A few days later, the school saw that this was not possible, and decided to add extra classes to the physical education class.This is also because the time of the physical examination has been fixed, which is on April 26.The exam is over in one day, and the exam is not at the school, the school will rent a car to take everyone there.

After the notification, Lin Mei remembered that the school rented a bus.

The students in the class thought that the school said that they rented a car, so it must be a bus, right?There are also parents of students who can use the unit's car, or have a car at home, and talk about whether they should borrow their parents' car when it comes to it?Gao Yuan patted his chest and said that his father is in the car class, and he will see if he can let his father borrow the car from the unit.

Zheng Kai actually went to ask Mr. Zheng if Gao Yuan's family could borrow a car, and if they could just pick up and drop off their class.

Teacher Zheng said: "No need, the school has arrangements. Just say thank you Gao Yuan's father."

Guo Xinxin's father had a small bread, and she also asked her father to drive the car and take the five of them with him. "Let's not take the school car, maybe there is no seat, take my dad's car? My dad said that he will invite you to dinner at noon."

Lin Mei couldn't say that the school had already rented the bus, so she advised her, "The school will definitely not agree."

Everyone is also discussing whether they will distribute two sodas to each class like a sports meeting?It's almost like discussing a spring outing.

In the end, it was Teacher Zheng who stepped on the brakes for everyone, "Recently everyone is discussing the physical examination. I will tell everyone officially that the school has already rented a car, and we will go back together when the time comes. Private actions are not allowed. Go to other schools Exams, discipline is the most important thing! The weather will be hot, so everyone should try to wear school uniforms."

Wearing a school uniform is not a problem. Lin Mei remembers that it was quite hot on the day of the PE test.

Teacher Zheng said: "At that time, the school will distribute two boxes of mineral water so that everyone can take the exam with peace of mind. Our school's teachers will also follow, so don't be nervous."

Afterwards, the second class every afternoon was changed to physical education. Now, in addition to the main subject, the minor subjects have to temporarily give way to the physical education class.What the school means is that everyone must grasp the sixty points in sports, try to practice as much as possible now, and get a few more points by then.

The physical examination items have also been decided. Teacher Ma said: "There are four items: long-distance running, sprinting, shot put and standing jump. There are [-] points in total. The items are not heavy. Everyone has practiced before. It is not difficult to get a passing score. If Some people have something to do with... ah, it has something to do with the Education Bureau, so you might as well go for a walk, Tuto people. Our physical examination is different from your Chinese and math. When the time comes, the teacher will score you as many points as you want on the spot. Yes. For example, if you throw a shot put only [-] meters and [-] meters, you know someone, and he will record ten meters for you, but no one will know."

Teacher Ma's "honesty" made the students surprised.

Teacher Ma smiled and waved his hands, "What I'm telling you now is for your own good. The senior high school entrance examination is an important stage in your life. Those who are capable will take the test, and those who are not capable will find a way. It's not when you are noble. .Go back and talk to your parents, if you know someone, contact them now.”

What he said made everyone regard him as "one of our own". Teachers whose subjects were not important would not have much prestige in the eyes of students, but when the class was over this time, Teacher Ma said: "Let's end the get out of class."

Everyone shouted deafeningly: "Goodbye, teacher!!!"

Teacher Ma laughed all of a sudden, waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Okay, okay, let's go."

Lin Mei heard Zheng Kai say to He Qi over there: "Mr. Ma is a real person, and he took a risk when he said this."

Even Lin Mei was a little excited just now, and lamented that Teacher Ma is indeed a good teacher.
