As soon as he got home, Li Yinxiu was afraid that the pork would spoil, so he quickly washed his hands, took it to the kitchen and cut it up, planning to fry it dry.

Xu Jing was arrested to start a fire. When cooking, he usually burns peanut seedlings and rice stalks. These two fuels burn quickly and are burned out in a short time.

The weather was hot, and sitting in front of the stove was even more stuffy. After a while, Xu Jing was profusely sweating.

When Qi Yunzhi saw him, he suddenly reached out to wipe the sweat off Xu Jing's forehead.

His fingers were long and cool, Xu Jing smiled at him.

Encouraged, Qi Yunzhi stayed next to him to help him wipe his sweat. At first he wiped it with his hands, and then he wiped it with his sleeves.After wiping for a long time, his nightgown was still the same, without any trace of getting dirty or wet.

Li Yinxiu put most of the browned fried pork slices up. The fat and lean meat were piled together, soaked in the fried lard, leaving a little sliced ​​meat, and fried a large plate of chili fried pork slices with chili.After cooking the pork slices, she cooked the wax gourd again. With the little oil left at the bottom of the fried pork slices pot, the fried winter melon was cooked quickly.

Today, when I bought some meat, Li Yinxiu specially cooked a loofah soup with sliced ​​meat. The loofah was already sweet, and when I put two slices of meat in it, the aroma wafted all over the room.

After Xiaobao smelled it, he didn't go out anymore, moved a small bench and sat at the door, and asked Li Yinxiu with big black eyes, "Grandma, I'm so hungry, when can I eat?"

"Wait a little longer, you can eat when your parents come back."

Xiao Bao leaned against the door frame, listless.

Just as they were talking, Liang Guotao and the others came back one after another carrying peanut sticks. They poured well water, washed their faces and feet, and went out with vegetables.

Xu Jing was hungry, and Qi Yunzhi next to him was also hungry. Xu Jing even heard his stomach growling.While Li Yinxiu was serving dishes and there was no one in the kitchen, Xu Jing hurriedly picked up a few pieces of fried pork and stuffed it into his mouth, then walked out as if nothing had happened.

Li Yinxiu looked at him suspiciously, saw that the corners of his mouth were clean, and did not catch any evidence that he ate it secretly, so he didn't mention him, but turned around and Li Yinxiu put the meat into the cupboard, covered it with a bowl, and closed the cupboard door carefully .

Usually Li Yinxiu would lock the kitchen after washing the dishes so that no one would go in and steal food.

Xu Jing could occasionally steal some salt while washing the dishes, but he couldn't get the rest, so Li Yinxiu guarded him very tightly.

For a person who doesn't have much chance to eat meat, meat is delicious no matter what, Xu Jing ate a bowl of rice in one go, and quickly stood up to fill a second bowl that was full.

Li Yinxiu glanced at him, and said to him a little impatiently, "Don't eat so much at once, be careful that you'll get overstuffed."

"It's not bad." Xu Jing scratched his head, took a big mouthful of rice, and said vaguely, "Grandma's dishes are delicious."

Li Yinxiu frowned, and wanted to say something else, Guo Yingzhen cut her off, and asked him with a smile, "Is it delicious? Does the food from my cousin's house taste good?"

"Fragrant." Xu Jing nodded seriously, "The meal at my cousin's house is the best."

Xu Jing put two chopsticks of vegetables into the bowl with his big chopsticks, and then ate slowly.Everyone eats like this, and they can eat half a bowl of rice at a time, and no one says anything about him.

The chili in the bowl was very spicy, Xu Jing took two mouthfuls, hissed inhaling air, pretending that it was too hot, and took the rice bowl to the kitchen to drink cold water.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, Xu Jing quickly put the rice bowl into Qi Yunzhi's hand, and told him in a low voice, "Eat quickly."

Qi Yunzhi smiled at him with bright eyes, took the rice bowl, made two strokes three times, quickly put the rice in his mouth, put the rice in his mouth, and handed the bowl to Xu Jing.Xu Jing sat on the small bench and waited for him to slowly swallow the food in his mouth before washing the bowl.

"Why so fast?" Ermei Liang asked while holding a bowl, "You won't pour all the rice down, will you?"

"It's over." Xu Jing shook his head innocently, walked back and sat under the eaves.

According to the Liang family's rules, there is nothing important to do after the meal. Generally, one has to sit at the dinner table and wait for everyone to finish eating before leaving.

The Liang family is very satisfied with today's dishes, and generally add an extra bowl of rice.

After dinner, the family had a conversation in the corridor, and were about to go back to their rooms to rest, when someone approached on a bicycle from a distance.

The man was wearing a green suit, a straw hat, and two green bags on the back of his bicycle. He was dressed like a standard postman.

Guo Yingzhen squinted her eyes for a while, then stood up and raised her voice and asked, "Brother Ercai, do you have a letter from our family?"

"Yes, there is a letter from your family. It is from the Comprehensive Life Center in the Middle and Upper Reaches of the Yangtze River." While speaking, the postman had already arrived. He slammed on the brakes, reached out to find a letter in the bag behind him, and parked the bicycle Stepped forward and handed it to Guo Yingzhen, "Do you have relatives in big cities?"

In a small and remote place like the Renyuan living area, having relatives in a big city is very face-saving. Guo Yingzhen smiled and said, "Yes, my cousin is there."

"No wonder the previous postman said that your family can often receive letters. Nuo, sister Yingzhen, letters from your family." The postman turned back, stretched his long legs, and got on the bicycle. "I will continue to deliver letters. See you."

"Come and have a cup of tea before leaving."

"No, I'll hurry to finish the delivery. I have to go to the field when I get back. My wife can't take care of it alone—" The postman waved his hand and pedaled away on his bicycle, his voice getting smaller and smaller.

It was the first time Xu Jing knew that his family members lived in the comprehensive life center in the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River, so he couldn't help pursing his lips.

Guo Yingzhen opened the letter and leaned close to Liang Guotao to read it with him.The letter was not long, only one page, plus a line on the back, and they read it quickly.

After reading it, Guo Yingzhen turned to Xu Jing, "Xiaohe, your family said that they are busy now and don't have time, and they will pick you up after the Chinese New Year. You go to school at your cousin's house first, and your cousin will go to teach you when school starts in two days. You sign up, and I'll ask the teacher to arrange you to be in the same class as Xiaobao, so that Xiaobao can take care of you more."

Xu Jing’s household registration is not here, and a copy of the household registration and other information are specially placed in the envelope to facilitate registration for Xu Jing. In addition, there is a remittance slip with 150 yuan on it, which is said to be Xu Jing’s payment for the next six months Tuition and living expenses.

The three children will go to school in September, and Guo Yingzhen is worried about money. Unexpectedly, her cousin sent a large sum of money to relieve her urgent needs.

She was in a good mood, and even touched Xu Jing's head lovingly, "You study hard, and let your parents look good when you come home during the Chinese New Year."

"Yeah." Xu Jing lowered his head and answered, after a while, he looked at Guo Yingzhen and proposed, "Auntie, my father taught me to read and write before, can I skip the first grade and go directly to the sixth grade?" ?”

Guo Yingzhen and Liang Guotao looked surprised, they looked at each other, Guo Yingzhen asked Xu Jing: "Xiaohe, do you remember what you learned before?"

Xu Jing nodded, "I remember, I didn't say it before, but I wrote it down."

Guo Yingzhen immediately worried that Xu Jingji hated their family, and asked nervously, "Do you remember everything about your cousin's house for so long?"

"I remember the things in the past relatively clearly, but I don't remember much later, and I don't remember much about my aunt's house." Xu Jing seemed to have some anxiety in his eyes, "I forgot a lot of things before I caught a cold."

Hearing what he said, Guo Yingzhen was inexplicably relieved, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if you forget, just remember it later."

Xu Jing responded.

Guo Yingzhen said again: "Xiaohe, you have never been to school, don't be greedy, reading is like eating, you have to eat bit by bit. The things taught in school are different from what your father teaches. You will know when your cousin signs up for you. Now, you go to the first grade and try it out, if you can keep up, my cousin will see if she wants to raise you a few grades next semester, okay?"

Seeing that she didn't plan to enroll herself in the sixth grade directly, Xu Jing hurriedly said: "No first grade, Auntie, I want to go to the fourth grade. I promise to keep up. If I can't keep up, I will go to the first grade." Blinking Eyes, Xu Jing looked at Guo Yingzhen with his black and white pupils, "Auntie, my first-year students will laugh at me."

Guo Yingzhen comforted casually, "No, who would laugh at you?"

Before she finished speaking, Xiaobao made a shameful gesture towards Xu Jing with malicious intentions.

"..." Guo Yingzhen grabbed Xiaobao mercilessly, and landed on his buttocks, beating him until he cried like hell, and then ordered him to go aside, not to cry in front of her.

Most of the people in the Renyuan living area are people with the surname Liang, and most of them can be related to each other through detours. Even if they can't, they have lived in the same place for so long, and they have some friendship.An uncle of Liang Guotao's clan was appointed as the principal of Renyuan Primary School. When Liang's second sister went to school, Guo Yingzhen even gave him a gift, hoping that the other party would take care of Liang's second sister.

If Xu Jing really wants to go to the fourth grade, Guo Yingzhen will go to activities for him, and it is not impossible to sign up.

As long as Guo Yingzhen is willing to make connections for him, and his grades are qualified, it's no problem for him to enroll in the fourth or sixth grade.

Guo Yingzhen was troubled, her expression seemed to be loose, Xu Jing looked at Liang Guotao, and begged: "Biao Aunt, Biao Uncle, I am 11 years old, and I don't want to be in the same class as Xiaobao."

Xu Jing was so old that Guo Yingzhen felt a little headache. She glanced at Liang Guotao and said, "Okay, Aunt Biao will help you to ask. If you can't keep up, you should transfer to the same class as Brother Xiaobao."

Xu Jing nodded, "Aunt Biao, don't worry, you can keep up."

Guo Yingzhen said so, but she was worried after all, and asked Liang Dashi, who had already returned to his room to rest, to come out and ask him to give Xu Jing a few questions.

Liang Dashi was studying in high school in Luyu's living area, and he was about to enter the second grade.

Hearing his mother call him, Liang Dashi came out with his sleepy hair, grabbed a piece of paper and a pen, sat down on the eaves, scribbled down half a page of the topic, and handed it to Xu Jing, "Do it first."

Now primary school mainly studies three subjects, Chinese, Mathematics, and Nature, and these three subjects are also taken in junior high school.

Liang Dashi mainly wrote Chinese questions and math questions. Xu Jing glanced at it and found that the difficulty was relatively high.Fortunately, they are all in simplified characters, and he writes them smoothly, even if it is more difficult, it will not trouble him.

Xu Jing moved the small stool and worked hard at the dinner table, while Xiao Bao looked at him curiously from the side.

He controlled the speed of the questions, and spent more than ten minutes writing all the questions.

"Brother Dashi, I'm done." Xu Jing handed the title to Dashi.

Dashi read the test questions from top to bottom, and all the questions on the test questions were correct. He raised his eyes and looked at Xu Jing, "Have you studied it before?"

"Well, my dad taught me."

Guo Yingzhen saw something was wrong, and asked Dashi, "How much is Xiaohe right?"

"All right."

Guo Yingzhen reached out to take the piece of paper suspiciously, and after looking it over carefully, she found that Xu Jing had indeed answered many questions correctly, at least Xu Jing had answered all the questions she knew correctly.

Liang Guotao watched from the side, also very surprised.

Xu Shenghe stayed in their house for so long, they all knew that he had mental problems since he was a child, they never thought that one day he would return to normal, even smarter than ordinary children!

Xu Jing looked at them, "Biao Aunt, Uncle Biao, can I go to the fourth grade?"
