Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

Registration date

"Yu Shui, it's okay. My school is right next to yours. We can still go to school and go home together in the future." He Lai saw that Yu Shui was unhappy.

"OK then."

"Okay, let's take Yu Shui to pay the tuition first." Wu Juan gave the order.

……

"Xiao Laizi, which class are you in?"

"Grade one (two)."

"Let's go then."

"Mom, your hands are shaking."

"Nonsense!"

……

"Then I'll leave He Lai to you. I'll leave first." After paying the tuition in the classroom, Wu Juan exchanged a few polite words with her head teacher, Mr. Wang, and left quickly.

"He Lai-san, please take a seat."

"Teacher, can I sit at the back?"

"Ah, why?"

Teacher Wang was very surprised that this student who skipped a grade actually wanted to sit in the back row.

"I like to sit in the back. The best kind for one person. I prefer the quiet."

"The teacher cannot agree to this. So, the teacher will arrange for you to sit next to a girl. Girls are generally quieter. The teacher will show you."

Teacher Wang lowered his head and looked at the seating chart.

"Then you can sit next to Zhang Xinran in the third row." Teacher Wang pointed to a seat by the window.

He Lai had no choice but to give up and sit down.

"Hello, classmate, my name is Zhang Xinran."

"Hello, my name is Brother Lai!"

He Lai looked at the pretty little girl and deliberately made a joke.

"Come……"

"Hmph!" The girl stopped talking immediately after hearing that.

He Lai smacked his lips, really couldn't take a joke.

This girl is not easy to mess with.

……

Not bad, the junior high school already has a small canteen where you can buy some simple dishes, and it also provides hot lunch boxes.

He Lai was very satisfied because he could eat what he wanted.

When He Lai returned to the classroom after eating in the cafeteria, he saw his classmates reading books while eating steamed buns.

“Uh…” He Lai just then realized that his classmate’s clothes were full of patches and he might come from a poor family.

"Um, Zhang Xinran, I'm sorry. I was just joking with you this morning. Actually, Wang's name is He Lai."

"Well, it's okay." Zhang Xinran glanced at He Lai and continued eating the steamed bread.

He Lai didn't know how to chat, so he just started reading a book.

As I was watching intently, I noticed someone standing in front of me. I looked up and saw that it was Liu Shiya.

"You lied to me!"

"What? Did I lie to you?" Liu Shiya's words shocked He Lai and all the classmates.

The classmates gathered around curiously.

"You said you wanted to skip a grade, why didn't you?" Liu Shiya said angrily.

"Ah, didn't I just say it casually?" He Lai then realized that this girl had skipped a grade.

"Hmph, just wait for me!" After saying that, Liu Shiya ran out.

He Lai smacked his lips, what kind of person is this?

Zhang Xinran also looked at He Lai speechlessly. He was indeed a guy who often lied.

He Lai is so bad, why do you despise me? He Lai is going to lie on the table and not get up.

……

After school, He Lai immediately got up and prepared to go to the elementary school, only to find that Yu Shui and the others were already at the school gate.

It turned out that they had already finished school. Could it be that Xu Damao had always skipped classes before?

He Lai smacked his lips and walked forward to say hello.

"Hey, it turns out that junior high school finishes later than elementary school. How about you do your homework in school first?" He Lai suggested.

"Okay." The kids all agreed.

"Let's go. Let's go home."

……

"I'll give it back to you." Zhang Xinran pushed a candy in front of He Lai.

"Um. I just noticed that you always ate less. So..." He Lai explained with an embarrassed look on his face. I didn't expect this girl to be so strong-willed.

"No, thank you. I can't accept anything from you for nothing."

"I don't mean anything else. I just thought that since we have been desk mates for three years, we should be able to become good friends." He Lai also explained.

"thank you for your kindness."

"So we are friends and desk mates?"

"Girl from yesterday, why did you say that?"

"Ah..." He Lai was confused by Zhang Xinran's sudden question.

"Well... she was my deskmate in elementary school. When we graduated, I made a joke and said I wanted to skip a grade. I didn't expect her to believe it. I was also confused when I saw what she said."

He Lai also explained patiently.

"puff…"

Zhang Xinran also laughed out loud when she heard He Lai's explanation.

“Are you good at studying?”

"Normally, normally. Anyway, she was always below me before. I guess she wants to surpass me."

"Then can you teach me?"

“I only teach my friends.”

"Then I'll be your friend."

"If you want to be my friend, you have to eat my food. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll scold you when I teach you, and you won't be able to bear it."

He Lai pushed a candy over.

Zhang Xinran was confused. Teaching means scolding? This is normal! But for the sake of learning, he accepted it. He Lai said that I even beat people!

"Okay. I'll eat it." Zhang Xinran hesitated for a moment. For the sake of his own grades, he had to work hard. He picked up the candy on the table and ate it.

"Okay, so what do you want me to teach you?"

"Teach me math first."

"Row."

……

"You seem to be a little bit out of your mind."

"you……"

"I'm telling the truth. How about you copy the formula a few more times before I tell you?"

"Just copy it." Zhang Xinran also endured it.

He Lai pushed a few more candies over to him, "You need to replenish your sugar intake, otherwise you won't be able to learn math, physics and chemistry well."

After eating one, there is another one. He Lai has one more window to vent his anger.

……

"Brother, you are a little abnormal today!"

"Really? Yushui, you think too much. Children should be carefree and not think too complicated. Let's go home and have dinner."

……

"I have experience in dealing with mistakes like yours. Please write down the solution to this wrong question ten times."

He Lai handed over the notebook.

Zhang Xinran took it and copied it ten times obediently.

"Do you feel anything?"

Zhang Xinran shook her head. He Lai took a look and gave her the correct solution and the formula used.

"I'll have you copy this ten times, too!"

Zhang Xinran looked at the correct answer and formula, then looked at his serious expression and did it anyway.

After copying, Zhang Xinran looked at his wrong solution process and then looked at the correct one.

Sure enough, I figured out the idea behind it.

"Thank you."

"Hey, this method is a bit stupid, but it works well against you. Keep it up."

Zhang Xinran held the pencil tightly and wrote silently.

……

In the small courtyard

"Guangtian, you are doing your homework right now. If you let me come, I will have nothing to do in the future."

Liu Guangtian ignored He Lai and started writing more carefully.

He came to see Liu Guangtian being tricked. Then he turned around and came to Xiao Huzi again.

"Hmm? Little Tiger, you've been slacking off lately. You made several mistakes. Come let Brother Lai teach you."

He Lai hit Xiao Huzi's back with a wooden stick in one hand and pointed at the wrong questions with the other hand, thus starting his own educational journey.

Little Tiger secretly vowed to work harder next time. He had been lax recently.

Yu Shui and Chun Er were sitting on the swing, watching He Lai teaching little Tiger with a smile.

The picture is extremely natural.
