Embroidered Pillows and Paper Tigers

There is actually a reason why the father and son reacted this way to the incident of "there is a woman next door". Li Qishan moved into this community when Li Shi'an didn't remember anything, but he was unlucky and met a domestic violence man next door.

The husband and wife often quarreled, and the neighbors heard it, but everyone never intervened in the concept of other people's "housework". But one time, it was estimated that the woman was beaten so much that she just took pictures of their house. Li Shi'an was only eight years old when this happened, and he was so frightened that he cried and called Li Qishan. Li Qishan was in a factory, and most factories were built in the suburbs.

The police have actually come to deal with the matter of the neighbor’s house several times, but the man refused to change after repeated admonitions. In the end, the last hostess found a chance to hide outside and did not come back. Later, I did not know what method was used to divorce the marriage. Naturally, the father and son I don't understand why this woman is so overwhelmed and wants to jump into the fire pit.

"Don't worry about other people's affairs, go to school." Li Qishan quickly cleaned up his surprised expression and waved to Li Shi'an calmly. He lay back on the sofa but began to think that the child will be a sophomore after this semester. , must not be disturbed by these bad things, if it doesn't work, I still have to change houses.

After Li Shi'an went out, he went to Lao Yu's first, and he went to show off to Lao Yu today, and lived up to his expectations. Lao Yu praised the painting greatly.

"It's full of emotions! This is the breakthrough I want to see in you!"

"Really?" Li Shi'an was very happy.

In this society, most of the teachers who can make cram schools flourish are well-behaved. In order to retain students, they will say that children without talent are very talented, and they will say how important it is to develop a hobby, but Lao Yu is not that kind. people.

Lao Yu has an almost persistent stereotype, and has high demands on students. He will take the initiative to dissuade those who are really not suitable for learning painting and spending time in the studio. His evaluation of Li Shi'an has always been accurate and lacking in emotion. Today's brief two One sentence can be said to be the highest evaluation he can give to a student.

Li Shi'an was still immersed in the joy of finally finding a breakthrough. Old Yu suppressed his smile first, and said in an almost serious tone: "Your boy is the most talented among the many students I have taught. You are patient and understanding. I really like painting, so you really don't plan to pass the art test?"

Both of them stood in front of the painting, Li Shi'an turned his head to look at Lao Yu, and said with disgust: "You have always been a potter and a potter."

The implication is that you can make me happy for a while, can't you?

Li Shi'an can't leave the art exam Lao Yu knows, because the factory run by Li Qishan is counting on Li Shi'an to take over. The factory is not only the source of income for the father and son, but it has been operating from scratch for so many years, and it is older than Li Shi'an. Emotionally, he is Li Qishan's second son, and it is natural for his son to inherit his father's career.

"That's such a pity," Lao Yu said regretfully, "I hope you won't regret giving up your dream in the future."

"Then you didn't regret your misfortune in the pursuit of your dream?" Li Shi'an took a look around the studio which is a bedroom and kitchen, and teased Lao Yu without losing the opportunity.

The two have known each other for eight years, and they have talked about everything for a long time. Naturally, Lao Yu will not be angry because of this, but just looks at the painting and smiles lightly.

The painting is set on a snowy night, and the dancers under the lights are behind billowing black clouds. The picture shows a strong emotional depression. The reason why he said this painting is good is because he can feel what Li Shian wants to express in this painting. bondage and struggle.

However, it is not the first time that Lao Yu has seen things like giving up his lifelong hobbies after he studied painting. He feels regretful but has nothing else to say.

As if feeling the meaning of Lao Yu’s silence, Li Shi’an’s eyes flashed an unspeakable emotion, and finally he turned his eyes back to the painting and said softly: “I hope I won’t regret it.” The tone is a bit like a soliloquy. , then sighed again, "Frame it up and leave it in the studio, this is my son, treat my son well."

It was another morning when Li Shi'an stayed in the studio. Lao Yu saw that he was painting seriously and didn't bother him, so he prepared his meal at noon, so Li Shi'an had a makeshift meal with Lao Yu at noon, and finally rushed to report to school.

D City Experimental High School would send students to the school the afternoon before the start of school every year. There were no major incidents, just two things, one was cleaning and the other was book distribution.

It was late when Li Shi'an entered the school, and the teachers and students of the school had already started to work. The scene was quite spectacular. Li Shi'an greeted a few classmates, and ran into his deskmate and good friend Lao Xie within a few steps.

Lao Xie, who was originally named Xie Chen, is a chubby fat man. He has been in the same class as Li Shi'an since junior high school. He saw Li Shi'an from afar and jumped towards him like a bear seeing honey: "Hey, class flower!"

"Fart, I'm an earth ball." Li Shi'an staggered when he was thrown by the round old Xie, and he still didn't forget to correct his "attribute".

"Hey, Qiucao, how did you go during the winter vacation?" Lao Xie put one hand on Li Shi'an's shoulders and walked towards the teaching building together.

When old friends meet, they naturally have to poke each other's hearts first. Li Shi'an said with a smile: "Of course, the red envelope is soft, what about you? Did your mother beat you up for failing the exam?"

"I'm heartbroken," Old Xie made a gesture of being stabbed in the chest by an arrow, "I made up my mind to study hard this semester, and we will see at the end of the semester." When mentioning this, Old Xie suddenly remembered something, "Oh , you will be a sophomore at the end of this semester, are you sure you don't want to transfer to the art exam?"

Li Shi'an hesitated for a moment, not saying that he was not sure, but asked: "Why? Can't bear to follow in my footsteps?"

Old Xie chuckled: "Forget it, I'm like this, playing, playing and singing is not the same thing, I'm not born to be a performer."

"You can sell yourself!" Li Shi'an heard the Mai Tai in Lao Xie's words, and blurted out the retort, then deliberately turned his face to look at Lao Xie, and said, "Forget it, when I Did not say."

Just as Lao Xie was about to answer these words, he saw a person staring at them from a distance. He bumped his elbow into Li Shi'an: "Oh, Tang Doudou is looking at you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Shi'an saw a pink figure drifting closer and closer to the direction that Lao Xie was looking at. As if he was facing a formidable enemy, he tore off Lao Xie's arm from his shoulder and said, "I'm going first."

Tang Doudou had already chased after Lao Xie, looked at Li Shi'an's back and shouted, "Li Shi'an, why are you running?"

Tang Doudou's daughter's father is a famous entrepreneur in D City, not a small business like Li Qishan's can compare, he did not pay less for the school's establishment, and was willing to spend money to sponsor various school activities.The girl is lively and cheerful, and she can take the lead in the school's cultural performances to support the class. She is the kind of student the teacher likes the most. The only thing is that she has a bold and unrestrained personality.

If she blocked Li Shi'an from going out of the toilet, Li Shi'an wouldn't be so afraid of her. The problem is that this girl keeps blocking people from going into the toilet every time, and keeps Li Shi'an from internal injuries.

Lao Xie remembered asking Li Shi'an if he had that kind of meaning for Tang Doudou, and Li Shi'an asked him back with a dazed expression: What "that meaning"?

...Old Xie can only think that he is late.

With the attitude of his brother being chased and killed by a woman, he can make up as much as he can, and Lao Xie said to Tang Doudou: "Daughter Doudou, what's the matter? What's the matter with Shi'an? He just remembered that he still has something." I forgot it in the teaching building, if I have something to tell my brother, I will pass it on to you."

"Fart! Just came to the school to report, why did he forget the teaching building?" Tang Doudou yelled fiercely at Lao Xie Yitong.

Lao Xie put on a serious face: "Why do you love to curse so much like him? Are you two long-lost brother and sister?"

Tang Doudou became even more fierce when he heard the words, and scolded: "You and him are brother and sister!"

Old Xie suppressed his laughter: "You are wrong. According to our attributes, Shi'an and I can only be brothers at best."

Tang Doudou glared at Lao Xie, stomped away.

Li Shi'an disappeared as soon as he hid, until the class was cleaned up, and the representatives of various subjects moved piles of new books for this semester into the classroom, and they did not appear out of nowhere.

When Lao Xie was cleaning, he searched for him but couldn't find him. When he saw someone, he asked, "Where did he go?"

"bathroom."

"...You can really hide," Lao Xie guessed that he had been blocked several times and was out of his shadow, and continued to complain, "I was almost scolded to death by Tang Doudou, why is she still thinking about you?"

Li Shi'an said: "You can't understand the pain of high-value people."

Lao Xie rolled his eyes unceremoniously, but he still had to admit in his heart that Li Shi'an was not bragging, he was indeed a good-looking guy.

Li Shi'an's complexion is very fair, his face is narrow and thin, his eyebrows are long and his nose is straight, and the corners of his eyes are slightly drooping. He was originally a natural and innocent face. With a short shaved head, he looks fierce, his ears are pierced, and he is a bit wild. Rebellious.

With such a face, Li Shi'an can scare children to tears when he is not smiling, but his personality and appearance are obviously opposite, and he is a really good student.

Lao Xie wanted to say something more. The class teacher Zhuang Jing came in from the outside at this time, and the whispering in the classroom suddenly became quiet. Only then did everyone notice that Zhuang Jing was followed by a tall and thin boy.

The boy was wearing a large apricot-colored woolen sweater and an iron-gray scarf. He had black hair that was neither short nor long and just covered the tips of his ears. He looked taller than Zhuang Jing standing on the podium, with a straight and thin body. The posture showed a habitual tension, and he stood there to accept the scrutiny of the whole class without showing any timidity. Even his gestures carried an elegant temperament, like a character who came out of a cartoon.

"Wow, prince~~~" a girl in the class yelled nympho, the girl's voice was shrill, especially harsh in the quiet classroom.

Li Shi'an was sketching, and he turned his eyes away from the sketchbook when he heard the voice. When he saw the new classmate standing by the desk, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows, but he quickly buried his head down again.

Class teacher Zhuang Jing, as a young woman in the new era, has just left the ivory tower for a few years. Knowing that girls like this kind of handsome and unsmiling boys, she said to the girls in the class: "We girls should be more reserved." He laughed, and then continued to introduce, "This is Shen Yan, a new classmate in our class, everyone welcome."

As soon as the voice fell, applause broke out in the classroom.

Lao Xie excitedly elbowed Li Shi'an on the sidelines: "It's over, Shi'an, your position on the earth ball will be lost."

Li Shi'an smiled nonchalantly, without taking his eyes off the sketchbook: "Then based on your friendship to me, are you planning to kill someone for me?"

"Don't you want it?" Lao Xie talked nonsense with Li Shi'an, "But if you enter our class and can grow like this, it's probably an embroidered pillow."

Li Shi'an suddenly raised his head to look at Lao Xie with a serious face, and he said, "It makes sense."

Old Xie: "..."

There is a reason for these two guys to relentlessly complain about their class. D City Experimental Middle School is a provincial key high school. Each grade is ranked from 1 to 7. It is ranked according to the school's grades. Class 1 is the best. By analogy, Class 7 is the tail of the crane.

Li Shi'an's grades in the experimental middle school were actually not bad, but his old father, who was worried about the country and the people, was worried that his son would not be able to enter Class 1. Class, must be 1 class, non-1 class is not allowed.

Unexpectedly, there are too many parents with gray hair who are worried about their children's study these days. Everyone wants Class 1, and everyone is very close. A few days before the opening of the school, the principal was forced to hide in the toilet, and finally gritted his teeth , Rank the students' grades from high to low from class 7 to class 1.

In this way, the parents who didn't know where they came in were still sending their children to Class 1, one at a time, but the parents who kept a close eye on things quietly moved their children to Class 7.It's a pity that Li Qishan is busy every day, and the old classmate entrusted by him is also extremely unreliable, so Li Shi'an, who could have been admitted to class 7, was admitted to class 1 under the tireless efforts of his old father.

When Li Shi'an learned of the bad news, he had already gone through the admission formalities, and called Li Qishan, and Li Qishan replied a few words: "Then what should I do? Why don't dad treat you to dinner tonight to make amends?"

In fact, based on Li Shi'an's grades, you can ask for a class transfer, but Zhuang Jing, the head teacher of class 7, is a girl who just graduated. The teacher who just graduated always has hope and enthusiasm for the students, so she insists on not letting Li Shi'an, the No.1 in the class. After leaving, Li Shi'an smiled in front of Zhuang Jing and showed his four big dies, but he couldn't say that he was going to change shifts, and gradually he didn't want to change shifts.

Zhuang Jing saw that Shen Yan was a taciturn big boy, and the young teacher was very considerate, so he didn't want him to introduce himself, so she just asked, "Shen Yan, are you short-sighted?"

Shen Yan shook his head.

Looking around in the classroom, Zhuang Jing quickly made an arrangement. He pointed to the back of the classroom and said, "Well, you go to Xie Chen's seat, and Xie Chen sits next to Zhu He."

Xie Chen and Li Shi'an, who were inexplicably broken up, looked at each other, unable to react for a while, Xie Chen stood up and said, "Zhu He... Isn't there Liu Lin next to Zhu He?" After speaking, he noticed that Liu Lin in front of him didn't come at all.

"Liu Lin took a leave of absence this semester due to illness," Zhuang Jing said, "It's just you, hurry up and move, you've been whispering to Li Shi'an all day long, if I don't tell you, just pretend I didn't see it?"

The whole class was amused by this remark, and Li Shi'an didn't expect that a new classmate would suffer an unreasonable disaster first.He spoke with a look of full affection, didn't he just whispered for a while.

Just when Li Shi'an was slandering, Lao Xie's [-] moved his schoolbag while watching him with the laughter of the whole class, and yelled very sadly: "Officer!"

I don't know who in the class pinched his nose and replied: "Lady!"

Li Shi'an petrified on the spot.

Even Zhuang Jing laughed this time. Li Shi'an wished he could beat Lao Xie to death, but unfortunately he didn't have a murder weapon at hand, so he had to knock his head on the desk to pretend to be an ostrich.

Shen Yan walked towards Li Shi'an amidst the laughter of the whole class, he didn't look at anyone, took out a box of wet tissues and wiped the desks and chairs that had just been cleaned.

Li Shi'an raised his head and glanced when he heard the sound of pulling tables and chairs, hey, he's quite particular.
