reborn to run

Chapter 18

When the rows of willows in Shuitang Village sprouted green buds, a group of children rushed to school again.She didn't spend a penny of the New Year's money given by her grandfather, and put it all under the mahogany box. She used to keep it as a dowry, but now she saves it for school.

Guixiang looks forward to the start of school in the same mood that farmers look forward to a good harvest.

Beginning this semester, the production team asked the sixth graders and teachers to do some social work on the grounds that the labor force was insufficient and the productivity dropped last year.Every day at two o'clock in the afternoon, all classes are closed.This made Guixiang very anxious. Her father would never provide for her to go to school for too long. She had to go to junior high school as soon as possible. The Chinese in the junior high school exam was relatively easy, but math was very difficult!
Guixiang also felt more and more that there was nothing to learn in school. The math teacher only taught some formula theory in class, and didn't even arrange exercises.Guixiang had no choice but to borrow the previous exercise book from Ma Xiaohong, and pondered on her own.

When she encountered difficulties, she stacked them there, waiting to ask the teacher for advice in class the next day.It's just that when Guixiang asked the tall and thin math teacher yesterday, he probably just came back from work, with an unhappy expression on his face, and he also faltered when teaching Guixiang.

Guixiang didn't care what the teacher's mood was like, she still kept asking, but one day the teacher suddenly said with a straight face: "I don't know how to do this, if you want to ask, go to the teacher in the first grade of junior high school, I don't teach this. I think .” Guixiang had no choice but to leave the office with her fists clenched.

Shan Guixiang figured it out on her own, but it took longer. She kept quietly emptying the stock in Shan Fuman's kerosene bottle.Gradually, the small cluster of flames smoked out a large black mark on the yellow wall.

That day, Gui Xiang had just finished groping for two difficult problems, and pushed the door to go out, when the cold particles hit her face, and when she looked closely, it turned out to be a spring snow.

There was a sudden sound of the fence, and it was Hou Chunsheng who pushed the door to go out. Guixiang couldn't help calling him: "Hey, it's snowing outside. It's late at night, where are you going?"

"Oh, just now someone from our village brought a letter saying that my father fell on the ridge today, I'm afraid it was..." He spoke in a very anxious tone.

The memory in my mind suddenly came out. Hou Chunsheng's father had a stroke around this time, and he even borrowed 50 yuan from her father back then.

Gui Xiang felt that she should comfort him, and locked the door frame for a long time before saying, "Oh, then you should stay at home for a few more days."

Chunsheng nodded to her, and just as he turned around, Guixiang stopped him suddenly: "By the way, wait a minute, I'll get you something soon, and I won't delay your business."

Gui Xiang quickly took out the 60 yuan she had saved for a long time from the bottom of her box, wrapped it in a handkerchief and handed it to him: "Brother Chunsheng, take it with you, just in case."

Hou Chunsheng looked at the handkerchief, and the corners of his eyes were a little wet. He raised his head and handed the handkerchief back to her: "Guixiang, this... I can't take it."

Gui Xiang firmly put the handkerchief into his hands, completely tolerant of his objection: "Just treat it as if I lent it to you, you won't necessarily use it anyway, and return it to me later."

Hou Chunsheng could only nod his head, as if he had made a very important decision.Behind him was the snow-capped field, and the world was surprisingly quiet. Guixiang was standing in the snow two steps away, and Chunsheng thought in his mind that he would never let the girl in front of him suffer.

Hou Chunsheng went back for three months, and Shan Fuman didn't rush him.It was not easy for Gui Xiang to ask too many questions, so she could only listen to some news about that man from her father during the meal.

The junior high school exam came at the end of June, and Guixiang reviewed well, and she was admitted to Shuili Middle School with the first grade in the school.There are junior high school and high school in the hydraulic middle school, and the number of university admissions every year ranks first in the county.

As soon as Ma Xiaohong heard that the grades of the freshmen had come out, she had long been looking for Shan Guixiang's name on the red list, and when she saw Guixiang from afar, she waved to her.After that, I just pulled Guixiang and ate a bowl of big wontons that cost one yuan, saying it was to celebrate the harvest.

Guixiang was reluctant to spend so much money, what she liked was red bean popsicles that cost [-] cents a piece at the school gate, but Ma Xiaohong had been kind to her before, so she couldn't take her down.

Ma Xiaohong chirped like a flopping little magpie: "Guixiang, you did well in the exam. Our junior high school teachers like students with top grades the most. They all say that looking at boys every day makes them tired. Do you know that? You and I are the only two girls in the hydraulic middle school! We are a pair of giant pandas in the hydraulic middle school! You look so good-looking, there must be many people in the school chasing you!"
