rebirth chores

After bullying the innocent young man Fang Yunfeng, Xu Xiaowen's spirit became smoother and he looked at people more pleasingly.

After he figured it out, he secretly laughed at himself, it's awkward for a man in his teens.In his previous life, his stepfather was really kind to his mother, even his son was filial to Jiang Yun.It's just...he still has the feeling that his mother is going to be separated.

Xu Xiaowen sighed, if he was really a child, maybe he wouldn't be awkward.That way, he wouldn't even understand what stepfather really meant.

Liao Dong came over with the paper, "Xu Xiaowen, are you free?"

After getting acquainted with Xu Xiaowen, Liangdong often asked Xu Xiaowen for homework.His performance has been hovering in the middle and late, and he has made a lot of progress recently.

"Did you read the notice?" After finishing the question, Liao Dong looked enviously at Xu Xiaowen's bright red [-] points, and suddenly remembered something.

"What?" Xu Xiaowen was absent-minded all the way, and didn't even notice that another notice was posted on the notice board.

"English Knowledge Contest. You will definitely win prizes for the two words you participated in. The notice said that if you win the prize, you will get extra points in the future university entrance examination." Liao Dong was a little excited as he spoke, as if he could win the prize.

There are always such competitions in key schools.Whether it is to reflect the all-round development of students or to increase the popularity of the school, the school is always encouraging.The class teachers will also recommend outstanding students from each class to participate in the competition.But the first-year students did not participate.

"What's the prize?" Xu Xiaowen became a little interested.

The students in the front row heard them talking and glanced back at Xu Xiaowen, probably never seen such a naked expression of yearning for material things.The mainstream of education is to pay attention to the spiritual outlook, material desires are shameful, not to mention middle school students, elementary school students know that they cannot easily say they like money, it will be laughed at.

Liao Dong happened to be the second student in the class who yearned for material things, and Xu Xiaowen's question made him feel like a confidant.

"The first prize is a Walkman, the second prize is a set of sportswear, and the third prize is a badminton racket. There is also an excellent prize, a pair of table tennis rackets."

Xu Xiaowen was disappointed, he didn't even have a prize money, probably it wasn't a big competition, and he lacked interest!

He forgot how it is possible for a game that can add points to a college exam to be small.

At the class meeting, Zhao Fang announced the news of the English competition and encouraged everyone to sign up. The registration fee is ten yuan.

Liao Dong originally wanted to try his luck, but when he heard that there was still a ten yuan registration fee, he immediately gave up the idea.It's good to try your luck for free, but it's another matter to charge for it.

Xu Xiaowen was not interested at first, but he was No.1 in the class and a class leader. Zhao Fang named him to participate. Besides Xu Xiaowen, Fang Yunfeng and several other class leaders were also required to participate.

Democracy in schools is all about talk, and students can only obediently obey what the teacher says.

The school seems to really attach importance to the English competition. Zhao Fang specially informed the students participating in the competition that before the competition, they should read English books in physical education class, self-study class and activity class.The English teacher gave them a small recipe.If the English teacher is not free, he can study by himself.

The two boys were not very happy, especially Fang Yunfeng.He is full of love for all kinds of ball games, and the physical education class is simply his charger.Lost the physical education class, he was in a bad mood, Xu Xiaowen especially wanted to fill the kettle in the back corner with water for him to water.

Xu Xiaowen only found out after hearing gossip from a few classmates that the school had to apply for the qualification of a provincial key middle school. In order to increase the chips, the students had to participate in several competitions.In addition to the English competition, in a few days, there were math competitions, Chinese knowledge competitions, physics knowledge competitions, interesting knowledge competitions, basketball games, and football games.Widely cast the net and focus on catching fish!

For basketball and football games, Fang Yunfeng of course signed up quickly, and then looked forward to the day of training.It's a pity that No. [-] Middle School, like most schools in that era, paid enough attention to test scores, and the so-called morality, intelligence, physical education, art and labor were always in the stage of advocacy.The team has not been able to get together, Fang Yunfeng can only enjoy the special care of the English teacher, math teacher, physics teacher with Xu Xiaowen and others, and occasionally cast longing eyes on the wide playground and the newly built basketball court.

Xu Xiaowen really wanted to tell him that in a few years, when the single-plank bridge in the university becomes the only goal of students, such days will become the mainstream of student life.How can Fang Yunfeng live with such a lively personality!Xu Xiaowen expressed deep sympathy for Fang Yunfeng's miserable life in the future.

Deliberately immersing his thoughts in the busyness of the school, Xu Xiaowen didn't pay attention to Jiang Yun's little secret.What a strange thought, worried that his son would not accept it but didn't plan to ask Xu Xiaowen's opinion at all.In the minds of adults, children are arguing and awkward, and they will naturally accept it after a long time.Parents at this time have never sprouted the idea of ​​caring for children's psychology. In the words of child psychologists, they are "dictatorial parents".

A week before the English knowledge contest, a man brought him to Xu Xiaowen's home as a guest.

his future stepfather.

"Xiao Kai and Xiao Wen both go to No. [-] Middle School, Xiao Wen, Xiao Kai is two months older than you, you want to be called brother, do you understand?" Jiang Yun asked Xu Xiaowen about Wu Kai's age.

Xu Xiaowen ate the rice in silence, turning a deaf ear to Jiang Yun's words.

Call him brother, don't even think about it.It was impossible in the previous life, and it was even more impossible in this life.

"It's only been two months, just call me by name." The man smoothed things over in a leisurely manner.

Wu Kai didn't care whether it was the younger brother or the older brother. Although he was also in No. [-] Middle School, Wu Kai was the kind of cow herding class who sneaked in through the back door.The students in the cow-herding class have a common characteristic, that is, they look down on the students in the key class and think that they are all nerds.He squinted and raised his eyebrows at the cheap brother.The so-called things gather together and people are divided into groups. Like him, Wu Kai's friends don't like to read books. They watch too many TV shows. , his motto is "rules are made to be broken".This sentence is not only Wu Kai's motto, almost all adolescent girls have a soft spot for this sentence.

It was the same with Xu Xiaowen in the past, childish, impulsive, reckless, and... stupid!

"Xiaowen's grades are good, please help Xiaokai more in the future." Wu Jun said kindly to Xu Xiaowen, Wu Kai, who had a bad grade, snorted.

Xu Xiaowen nodded, but still did not speak.

He wasn't resisting, he just wanted to be willful for a while, just this once.

After this meeting, Jiang Yun took Xu Xiaowen to Wu's house again.

Xu Xiaowen knew that he and Jiang Yun would move out soon.

This is already 1996, HK will return next year, next year Jiang Yun will form a new family with another man.Those past memories are so clearly engraved in Xu Xiaowen's mind.Those ordinary memories that Xu Xiaowen has never forgotten.Jiang Yun's scolding, the curiosity of the new neighbors, the meaning of remarriage gradually understood by the ignorant teenagers, rebellious adolescence, plummeting grades...

In March 1997, Jiang Yun and Wu Jun held a small ceremony.For a wedding in the country, tables, chairs and benches borrowed from acquaintances, a cook invited, and ten large round tables were placed from the Wu family’s yard to the bamboo forest outside.Some people say that Jiang Yun is lucky to find such a good family with a tow bottle.Yes, Wu Jun's conditions are indeed good.Although he got married once and had a son, but he is handsome, physically fit, has a secure job, and has capable relatives. Compared with Jiang Yun, his family background is much better.Relatively speaking, Jiang Yun's only advantage is that he looks good. "Okay" is the evaluation of others.For Xu Xiaowen, Jiang Yun is very beautiful.Xu Xiaowen's looks follow Jiang Yun's, oval face, big eyes, white skin, tall figure, and Jiang Yun loves to dress up. Even in the most difficult stage of the family, Jiang Yun will never tolerate going out without applying hairspray and wearing casual clothes clothing.

Probably Wu Jun also took a fancy to this.

Because Xu Xiaowen and Wu Kai are not young anymore, there is no requirement for them to be called.Xu Xiaowen is called Uncle Wu Jun, and Wu Kai is called Aunt Jiang Yun.

After getting married, Jiang Yun's mother and son naturally moved to the Wu family to live.Xu's house was rented out by acquaintances.

Xu Xiaowen and Wu Kai are also candidates for the third grade of junior high school, but the difference is not small.

Xu Xiaowen has been the first in grade for three consecutive years, and has won awards in various provincial competitions many times. He is the teacher's darling.As for Wu Kai, his grades are always at the bottom, and the friends he makes are either punks or kids with worse grades than him.

In Xu Xiaowen's view, grades certainly cannot represent everything.

In the previous life, Wu Kai's grades were also so poor, but he was still in No. [-] Middle School anyway.In comparison, Xu Xiaowen, whose grades in No. [-] Middle School are deteriorating, is the most worrying child in this combined family.Although Wu Kai's grades were not good, he was quick-witted, and paid a high price through the back door to let him continue his studies in No. [-] Middle School. When he was in his third year of high school, Wu Kai suddenly became enlightened, and he worked hard for a year to take a first-class major in a second-class university.After graduating, I first worked in a large company. After a few years, I resigned and started a small company with my friends.Before Xu Xiaowen died, he went back to his hometown with Wu Kai.One is a small boss, and the other is a wage earner with no education.The difference between cloud and mud.

Xu Xiaowen knows that Wu Kai will have a good life in the future.It's a pity that Wu Jun didn't know.

Parents don't understand that academic qualifications don't mean everything. They only know that if you don't get good grades, you won't be able to pass the college entrance examination. Only going to college is the only way to change your life.

"Look, how about asking Xiaowen to tutor Xiaokai?" When the two couples spoke in the evening, Wu Jun made a suggestion that had been in his mind for a long time. "I know Xiaowen is nervous about studying, but Xiaokai's grades are really shameful..."

Jiang Yun had confidence in his son and agreed without hesitation.She remembered that Xiaowen had tutored Jiang Ping and Jiang Fei before, and the results were good, "But, is Xiaokai willing?" They are all the same age, Xiaowen is only two months younger, will Xiaokai be embarrassed?

"Stinky boy, you don't want me to kill him!" Wu Jun scolded.

Under Wu Jun's threat of violence, Wu Kai of course nodded obediently.

"Cut~ Bill Gates didn't go to college, so what if his grades are good..." Wu Kai only dared to mutter behind Wu Jun's back
