father's tree

It was agreed to take Li Su to the zoo, but it didn't happen.

Li Su's gums have been inflamed since he changed his teeth. Li Changen took him to the dentist on weekends.

After the dental examination, the dentist said that the tooth cannot be extracted, and the tooth will not grow well after extraction. He only prescribed anti-inflammatory drugs and said that he should not take it all the time. The child's attention is used to make him forget the pain, and it will be fine when the teeth are fully grown.

So Li Changen would come home early every night, lie on the bed with his son, put a book between them, and Li Changen would read the stories in it to his son.

In fact, it is past the time for Li Su to listen to the story like this, but Li Changen read it to him, and he is still very happy.

This time was a very good part of his memory in the future, and he even felt that throughout his childhood, Li Changen often read stories to him at night.

Li Su has always been fond of reading. He spends his spare time reading every day. There is a mess of books in the study room at home. He can sit still with a book all afternoon.

Rich reading has made his Chinese performance very good all the time, but in the fifth grade, his math performance has not recovered after a setback.

Solving equations always overwhelmed him, not to mention those Olympiad problems that were always incomprehensible, which could kill him.

The first time she was called by the teacher to stand behind the classroom because of a failing grade, Li Su had to sink into the dust in shame, hoping that she would disperse like light so that no one could see it.

However, after the first time, there will always be a second time. He failed the second time. Li Su felt even more ashamed, but he had no choice but to work harder, but it was useless. Do not reconcile with him anyway.

Li Su does math homework every night at home, and Zhong Li Changen can come back at ten o'clock in the evening.

Li Changen stood behind him and looked at him. Li Su knew that his father was back because of the figure on the desk, and turned to look at Li Changen.

Li Changen touched his head and asked, "Is there so much homework, and it hasn't been done yet."

Li Su said, "It's another exercise book, I bought it myself."

Li Changen pulled a chair over and sat beside his son, "Let me see."

Li Su gave the exercise book to Li Changen, and frowned to see his father's reaction.

"There are six classes in the fifth grade. Each class has the same number of people. From each class, 15 people are selected to participate in the Young Pioneers activities. The remaining students are equivalent to the number of the original four classes. How many people were in each class?"

Li Changen read the question again, and Li Su wrote and rubbed with a pencil under the question, rubbing and writing, rubbing and rubbing, the paper was already worn out.

Li Chang'en said, "No way?"

Li Su nodded.

Li Changen put the book on the desk, and stretched out his hand to Li Su, Li Su threw himself on him from the stool, Li Changen hugged his son, and began to give him a lecture.

"Select 15 people from each class, how many people were selected in total?"

Li Changen looked into his son's eyes and asked.

Li Su frowned and thought for a while, then took a pencil and calculated on the draft paper, 15 times 6 equals 90.

"By the way, 90 people were selected, and the remaining students are equivalent to the number of the original four classes. How many classes are the students selected?"

After thinking hard, Li Su tentatively said, "Two classes."

Li Changen kissed his son's face appreciatively, "Yes, there are two classes. Is that equivalent to the 90 people, the number of people in two classes?"

Li Su nodded.

Li Changen guided, "Then how many people are in each class?"

Li Su got stuck again, and thought for a long time before saying, "Is it 90 divided by 2?"

Li Chang'en said, "Yes. How many people are in each class?"

Li Su said, "45."

Li Chang'en said, "That's right."

Li Su also became happy. In the classroom, I would never dare to ask other students. I went to ask the teacher. The teacher also said it quickly. He didn’t hear clearly. Go down and think about it." This dismissed him.

With Li Changen here, he felt a little relaxed, because his father would not scold him, nor would he perfunctory him casually.

Li Changen explained a few more questions to him, then carried him off the desk and said, "Let's go, take a shower and go to sleep."

Li Su said, "Can Dad still tell me tomorrow?"

Li Chang'en said, "If you come back early, it's past eleven o'clock, and I'm going to take a shower."

The two father and son took a bath together in the bathroom. Li Changen washed his son's body. Li Su was over nine years old, still thin and small, and he was eating well. He had eggs and milk every day, and he didn't grow taller.It's really worrying, Li Changen hugged his son in the bathtub and said, "When will Susu grow up?"

Li Su's eyes are big and clear, dark brown like a crystal clear amber, "Do you want to be as big as Dad?"

Li Changen smiled and said, "Yes."

Li Su said in distress, "I don't know, maybe it won't last long."

Li Chang'en said, "Why can't it grow up? When I grow up, I will look like my father."

Li Su nodded happily, "Then let me grow up quickly."

Back on the bed, Li Su found that his father was in a good mood, so he said tentatively, "Well, Dad, I did something wrong."

Li Changen covered him with a quilt, because Li Su has always been well-behaved, he didn't care about the wrong things he said, but he still asked seriously, "What wrong things?"

Li Su whispered, "I failed the math test."

Li Changen was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was a genius in various subjects back then, but little Li Su's brain was completely inherited from his mother, and his math was terrible, but it was nothing, he said, "It's okay, just take your time Alright. Do you understand the wrong questions on the paper?"

Li Su nodded, "The teacher will talk later."

Li Changen patted his head, "Oh, then it's fine. It's fine, don't worry too much."

There are very few parents like him who are open-minded.

Li Su said again, "But the teacher asked you to sign it when you take it back,...well, I was afraid that you would get angry, so I signed it myself."

Li Changen, "..."

Seeing that Li Changen stopped talking, Li Su knew that he must be angry, so she said in a weak voice, "Dad, I'm sorry, I was wrong."

Li Changen sighed and said, "It doesn't matter if you fail the math test, but you can't lie. How can a good boy lie."

Li Su was about to cry, "But I'm afraid you hate me. I failed twice."

Li Changen sighed again in his heart, and kissed his son's forehead, "It's okay, just don't do this again before I don't pursue it, even if you fail the exam, it's not a big bad thing, but signing for me, it's not good , I’ll take it back next time, I won’t do it, I’ll tell you, remember?”

Li Su said he remembered, and asked tentatively, "Will Dad still be angry?"

Li Changen comforted him, "Don't be angry anymore. Go to sleep."

Li Changen specially spared time to tutor Li Su in mathematics for a few days, and found that his son had no talent at all in this area, so he said he wanted to find a tutor for Li Su to answer math problems for him. After hearing this, he didn't respond, and sat there very lonely. Li Changen knew that he was not happy, so he said, "Why don't you like having a tutor."

Li Su couldn't give an answer.

He is always timid about interacting with outsiders, and he is very afraid that strangers will come into his life.

But Li Changen couldn't understand his timidity. Seeing that his son didn't answer, he couldn't force him afterwards, so he just said, "Okay, I won't hire a tutor. If you don't know the questions, just keep it. Dad will teach you when he comes back, okay?" good?"

There was a relaxed smile in Li Su's eyes, and she nodded in her father's arms, "Well, thank you, Dad."

Although he did not hire a math tutor, Li Changen intentionally asked a friend about art tutoring courses. Seeing that his son is so poor in math, in a place like China where he must rely on academic performance to be admitted to university, it seems that he can only develop well Artistic skills too.

Li Su has been playing the piano in the corner of the living room since he was a child, but he has no interest. Li Changen invited an undergraduate student from the art school to work part-time at his home. He majors in piano and can play violin, cello, pipa and dulcimer. , to ask Li Su if he has any hobbies in these areas.

When Li Changen brought this Teacher Li home on weekends, Li Su was not very happy, and timidly covered herself with sofa pillows.

Li Changen asked Li Xiang to sit down on the sofa opposite, and asked Xiaofen to pour tea, while he sat next to Li Su, holding his son in his arms, Li Su curled up on him, not daring to talk to strangers .

In the past, Li Changen didn't pay much attention to his son's timidity and introversion. He only thought that he would be better when he grew up. Now that he found out, he could only comfort his son and introduce Li Xiang as his brother from the Art Academy to teach him how to play the piano. of.

Li Xiang was a handsome and lively boy, and since then he came to Li's house three days a week, and Li Su gradually got used to him, but he still didn't dare to talk to him, and was always timid.
