Adored Koi in the ’70s - Chapter 119
Qiao Xiuzhi and Xue Chuan, Qiao Zhenjun and Lin Hui all came to see him off.
Just because the shop is very busy, only Qiao Xiuzhi and Xue Chuan stayed and waited.
Now the “good luck” business is getting hotter and more prosperous. They opened another one in the town at the end of last year. Qiao Zhenjun and Lin Hui were so busy that they eventually had to hire other people to help.
After the Qiao’s second-bedroom store went viral, several similar stores opened in the town, but they couldn’t beat Qiao’s in terms of variety or price.
In addition, Qiao’s family also sells dried flowers grown by Da Qiao, which alone cannot be obtained by other stores.
As for all the proceeds from the sale of dried flowers, Qiao Zhenjun and Lin Hui didn’t take a cent, and they all helped Da Qiao deposit them in the bank.
Therefore, apart from the two real estate properties in the town and Beijing, Da Qiao is still a wealthy young woman with a few thousand deposits!
And Qiao Xiuzhi and Xue Chuan came back one month before Da Qiao was going to take the college entrance examination.
This year, the two of them took Dafang to Beijing to seek development. With the help of the Huo and Mao families, Dafang developed very smoothly in Beijing. Some things they hadn’t thought of yet, the Huomao family just Has helped them get it right.
Although there was the help of Huomao’s family, Qiao Xiuzhi asked the big house not to rent a shop at first, but bought an early car, and the father and son pushed to sell it.
Anping is not good at studying, but he is very good at eating.
He started to learn how to cook with his father five years ago, and now his craftsmanship can already be mastered, plus he is willing to study new tricks and keep innovating in methods. It is not a problem to open a snack bar right away.
However, Qiao Xiuzhi was afraid that their family had never done business alone, so I let them start selling early.
Dafang’s breakfast is mainly Xiaolongbao, and occasionally other Chinese dim sums, such as jujube mud cake and brown sugar hair cake.
These dim sums are unremarkable, and other stalls that sell early snacks are also sold. At first, Wanchunju was very unfavorable, and they felt that they would definitely not be able to sell them early.
But it turns out that it doesn’t matter if it’s normal early, the key is to taste good!
The fillings of Anping’s Xiaolongbao are so thin that it tastes so fragrant that it makes people want to eat a second one!
Originally worried that they would not be able to sell without a customer, they only made two cages on the first day, and they were all sold out in less than an hour!
Some customers who came over after hearing the introduction couldn’t buy it, so they complained on the spot, asking them why they only make so many things to sell?
Father and son Anping and Qiao Zhenguo are both very good-tempered people, and occasionally they are not angry when they encounter guests who speak badly, but they are so kind to explain to others.
The food is delicious, the boss and his son have a good attitude, and many people have become repeat customers.
It’s actually not easy to sell the cart early. Get up before dawn and make noodles early, and then rush to the stall before everyone goes to work.
The wind and the sun, after a month, the faces of Qiao Zhenguo and Anping father and son were several degrees black.
But tired, tired, but very fruitful.
The father and son Qiao Zhenguo and Anping not only accumulated experience and how to deal with people, but also recruited a large number of loyal guests.
These guests became the first group of repeat customers when Qiao’s big room opened a restaurant in the most prosperous area two months later.
Nowadays, Dafang’s restaurant has established a firm foothold in Beijing, and the business is good. If we continue to develop at this speed, we should be able to double the size of the restaurant by the end of the year!
Xue Chuan took out a handkerchief from his pocket and unfolded it on the rock, then took his wife to sit down and said: “The child won’t come out so quickly, come and sit.”
Qiao Xiuzhi looked back at the handkerchief spread on the ground, and said distressed: “In fact, you don’t need to spread the handkerchief. You embroidered the handkerchief for several days. It is too wasteful to use it to cushion your butt.”
Xue Chuan smiled and said: “It’s okay. Just wash if it’s dirty. Now the kids are stable. We can also go around. I remember you wanted to see the Yellow River. Wait until Da Qiao finishes our college entrance examination. Just go.”
Qiao Xiuzhi turned her head and smiled at him: “Well, there is also Suhang you want to go to.”
Xue Chuan smiled softly: “There is heaven on the top, and Suzhou and Hangzhou on the bottom. I wanted to go a long time ago. Unfortunately, there were many children in the family and it was not convenient to go out. Don’t worry, we can finally do our own thing!”
Qiao Xiuzhi nodded with a smile, and stuffed a dried plum into his mouth.
Xue Chuan held the dried plums she handed over. The sweet and sour plums were just right for the summer season.
——
Da Qiao entered the examination room, and she knew none of the candidates who went in.
But she doesn’t know others, but others know her.
Not to mention that she has been the first place for six years in middle and high school, which means that she is getting more and more eye-catching, and others can’t help but remember her.
It may be due to poor nutrition in the past. Not many people have grown tall this year, but Da Qiao is a full 1.7 meter tall!
She is tall and straight, with straight and slender legs, delicate features and fair skin. She is even more beautiful than the female celebrities in the pictorial. Many boys blush first when they see her from a distance.
But helpless, many boys do not have as good grades as her, and even their height is crushed. What a heroic shortness of breath!
Of course, some people think that she is too tall, and that it is ugly for women to grow too tall, and it will definitely be difficult to find someone in the future!
If Huo Chi knew the thoughts of these people, he would probably jump out immediately and say: Don’t bother you to worry about it, her target has already been booked!
Da Qiao was optimistic that many people’s eyes were falling on her, the corners of her mouth were slightly pursed, two small pear vortices appeared on her cheeks, and there was a sound of discussion around her.
The invigilator came in a short while, and everyone turned their gazes back and straightened their mentality.
Da Qiao sat in his seat, not nervous at all.
She is ready for everything that should be prepared. With her strength, as long as there are no accidents, there is absolutely no problem in getting admitted to Jinghua University.
Soon, the invigilator handed out the test papers, and Da Qiao quickly scanned the questions, feeling that after the test, it was estimated that he would be mourned everywhere.
The difficulty of this year’s test paper is obviously higher than in previous years, and there are traps on many questions. If you don’t pay attention, it is very possible to solve the wrong idea.
After Da Qiao examined the question, he didn’t dare to be careless, and his spirit became more concentrated.
The first subject is Chinese. There are no additional questions. The total score is 100 points. The composition topic is a bit unexpected. It is a subject that the teacher did not think about during the review process.
Da Qiao mentioned the frame in the draft and made sure that there was no deviation before writing.
The most feared composition is that the topic goes off-track. Once it goes off-topic, no matter how good your writing is, it will be useless.
After she wrote the last word, she raised her hand and looked at the watch on her wrist. There were still twenty minutes before the paper was submitted, and she immediately went back to review the previous question.
Sure enough, this review found a small error, she quickly corrected the answer, squeezed the corner of her mouth, saved two points for herself and was a little happy.
After the review was completed, the bell for the papers just rang.
The invigilator scowled and asked everyone to put down their pens and were not allowed to fill in any more. A small whine suddenly sounded in the classroom.
After the invigilator took away all the test papers, everyone complained.
“What should I do? This time it is too difficult, I haven’t finished writing!”
“I’ve finished writing all of them, but I just filled in many questions casually, so I didn’t have time to review them at all!”
“Me too! And that essay, I have been reviewing the question for a long time, but I still dare not write it. I have a bad hunch, I think I am biased!”
Someone still wanted to find Da Qiao, the person who has always been the first place to answer, but looked up and looked up, but did not see her.
In fact, no matter whether it is the big or small test, after each test, someone will find Da Qiao for the answer. If the answer is the same as hers, they will be very lucky. If the answer is different, they will become very frustrated.
This time the difficulty of the question has increased. There must be a lot of people who did not take the exam very well, but this is only one of the subjects, and there are still many subjects to be tested, so in order not to affect everyone’s mood, Da Qiao ran away as soon as he completed the paper .
When she ran out of school, she saw grandpa and grandma sitting under the banyan tree waiting for her from a distance.
She hurried to trot up: “Father and grandma, didn’t you say that you don’t have to wait?”
Qiao Xiuzhi took out a handkerchief and wiped the fine sweat from her forehead: “I’ll go back and sit down. It’s better to wait here for you to come out. Don’t worry, we are windy under the tree and it’s not hot at all! “
Da Qiao was like a well-behaved and docile little cat, rubbing her hand with her milk, and said softly, “The milk is the best!”
Xue Chuan intervened and said, “Only your milk is the best? Isn’t that good?”
“Master is the best too!” Da Qiao quickly added, “Master, I’m hungry, let’s go back to eat quickly!”
Xue Chuan hurriedly stood up: “Let’s go, your mother should have cooked food waiting for you at home!”
Hearing this, Da Qiao smiled obediently again.
Many people have told her before that stepmothers all over the world have black hearts and they will abuse their stepdaughter.
But Lin Hui, the stepmother, was very good to her. Fortunately, over the years, she almost forgot that she had a real mother.
She occasionally thinks of Fang Xiaojuan’s real mother, and when she thinks of her real mother, she thinks of the “missing” Xiao Qiao. I wonder how she is now?
Godfather said that she was adopted by a rich man. If that is the case, she should also take the college entrance examination this year.
At this time, Xiao Qiao, who was in the Shanghai stock market, walked out of the examination room and sneezed severely.
She had a gloomy expression on her face, exuding an aura that no strangers should enter.
Because her composition was accepted after only half of it was written!
——
Back at home, her mother really made a good table for her, all she likes to eat!
Lin Hui asked her with some concern, “How did you get on the exam? Is it difficult?”
Da Qiao’s mouth was full, and he chewed on the garlic pork ribs and said: “The problem is a bit more difficult than before, but I don’t have a big problem, it’s all done!”
Lin Hui breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words: “It’s fine when you’re done. Eat more. If you want to eat at night, tell mom, mom will make it for you!”
The corner of Da Qiao’s mouth twitched slightly, and Li Guo said: “Anything is fine, as long as it is made by my mother, I love it!”
Lin Hui looked at her lovingly.
Xue Anxu flattered and said: “My sister is the best, no matter how difficult the question is, I will definitely be my sister in this year’s college entrance examination!”
Da Qiao stretched out his hand and squeezed his tender face and said, “Don’t go out and talk nonsense about this. If I fail the exam, everyone will definitely laugh at me!”
Xue Anxu pursed his mouth and said: “No way, my sister has been first in the exam every time, and she will definitely be the first this time!”
Qiao Anjie’s temperament is relatively restrained, and there is no way to flatter like this smoothly.
But seeing his sister pinch Xue Anxu’s face, he moved her face over and said, “I also think my sister will get the first place in the exam.”
Da Qiao touched his head: “Then I would like to thank An Jie first. If it is the first time in the exam, my sister will ask you to eat delicious food!”
Although Qiao Anjie was not pinched, but was touched, he was also satisfied in his heart, and suddenly pursed his mouth and smiled quietly.
Da Qiao felt that the more the twins grew up, the more different their personalities, but they still looked alike.
Before entering the examination room in the afternoon, Da Qiao guessed that this year’s mathematics would be more difficult to estimate, and when the test papers were posted, it was indeed true!
After the exam was over, the voice of mourning became louder this time, and some people couldn’t help crying.
Most people are not in a good mood. Da Qiao is more low-key. When someone asked her, she said she was barely able to do a good job, and she was not very sure about the topic.
Everyone felt a little better after hearing what she said.
After the final examination, Da Qiao walked out of the classroom with the crowd, and then saw a long-legged young man in a white shirt standing under the banyan tree.
The young man is tall, with slender and strong legs. From her direction, you can just see his profile. His profile is impeccable. The golden sunlight sprinkles on him through the dense leaves, as if to him. Plated with a layer of golden light.
The passing pedestrians couldn’t help but look at him, and the girls who came out of the examination room blushed when they saw him.
The young man was hunching forward slightly to talk to her grandma, with a smile on the corners of his shallow mouth, which made people unable to remove his eyes.
As if feeling the gaze behind him, he turned around and grinned at her.
The smile from the corners of the mouth spread to the bottom of the eyes, all with gentle warmth.
When Da Qiao saw the smile on the corner of his mouth, his heart skipped a beat, and he walked over and said, “Brother Huo Chi, why are you here? Is school already closed?”
Huo Chi’s deep black eyes looked at Da Qiao who was walking towards her, his eyes flashed with surprise.
Although he had only seen her half a year ago, every time he saw him, he would be surprised by her again.
The seventeen-year-old Qiao is no longer the little girl she used to be. She has grown into a slim girl, like flowers blooming enthusiastically on the branches, delicate and tender, and once the eyes of people fall on her, they will never again. Can’t move away.
He walked over and naturally took the stationery in her hand and said, “I will come right after the exam.” He didn’t even go home.
Da Qiao looked at him with a tired look and raised his brows and said, “Did you drive this far by yourself?”
Huo Chi smiled at her, the meaning is self-evident.
Da Qiao frowned angrily, stretched out his hand and slapped his arm: “It’s just a test. It doesn’t matter if you can’t make it!”
His arms were so stiff, her hands hurt when she hit it, and her mouth was pursed.
The golden sunlight shone on her white porcelain face, her long and dense eyelashes cast a circle of shadows under her eyelids, and her pink lips pouted slightly, looking aggrieved.
Huo Chi’s heart shrank, as if he was severely pinched, sour and sweet.
He whispered in a low voice: “How can it be indifferent? As long as it is related to you, it matters.”
I don’t know if his eyes are too hot, or because his words are too explicit, Da Qiao’s face burns.
There are handsome men and women, and the two standing together form a landscape, and the eyes of people passing by are more and more look over here.
Qiao Xiuzhi coughed: “Don’t stand stupidly, go back to eat, it’s late.”
The interaction between the two children was natural to her and Xue Chuan. They neither assisted nor opposed, and everything went with the flow.
Huo Chi and Da Qiao’s childhood sweethearts can be said to have grown up together. In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see Huo Chi’s affection for Da Qiao.
Even if Da Qiao is still a little ignorant, if she will be tempted by Huo Chi in the future, she can only let her discover it by herself.
Being reminded by Qiao Xiuzhi, Huo Chi and Da Qiao both became a little embarrassed, and Da Qiao did not dare to look at Huo Chi’s eyes along the way.
When they returned home, no one from Qiao’s family was surprised when they saw Huo Chi.
Except for Huo Chi who didn’t come during the summer when he was admitted to college, he would come no matter what the summer and winter vacations.
In summer vacation, Huo family will usually invite Da Qiao to Beijing city. Of course, Huo Chi will come to pick her up every time. After winter vacation, Huo Chi will show up at Qiao’s house. He won’t go with him until the Huo family comes to celebrate the Spring Festival. .
To the Qiao family, Huo Chi is already half the Qiao family.
In order to wait for the results, Da Qiao did not go to live in Beijing, and Huo Chi stayed in Qiao’s house with him.
——
In late July, the college entrance examination results finally came out while everyone was waiting.
Compared with the education bureaus in the town and the county, the education bureau in the provincial capital is more informed, and coupled with the geographical relationship, they get the college entrance examination results earlier than the town and the county.
The college entrance examination was resumed in 1977 to the present, and this year is the seventh college entrance examination.
Provincial schools are better than county and township schools in terms of educational resources and quality. Therefore, in the past six years, the top students in the college entrance examination each year have been in provincial schools, and most of them are concentrated in the first and second middle schools. .
Therefore, the provincial leaders thought that this year’s college entrance examination champion would naturally be in these two schools, but when they opened the file and looked at it, they were immediately stunned.
What?
The top pick in the college entrance examination was from Yunlai Middle School? !
What Shankara place is that in Yunlai Town? ? ?
The people from the Education Bureau almost stared out a hole in the document, but it was written with the words “Qiao Niannian from Yunlai Middle School”.
“Hey, why do I sound familiar with Qiao Nian’s name?” someone said suddenly.
“When you say that, I seem to be a little bit impressed, ah, I remember, didn’t the entire provincial city have a unified exam last year? At that time, a student was tied for the first place with Xu Hongling of No. 1 Middle School. I remember that name! “
There are dozens of high schools in the entire provincial capital. It is not easy to unify the test questions and review the papers, so the unified test has been conducted once in the past few years.
Knowing that a student from the town was tied for first place with Xu Hongling from No. 1 High School, many people were shocked at that time, but they didn’t take it too seriously afterwards.
Many people thought that she was lucky enough to get good grades. After all, the educational resources in the town were so poor that they couldn’t even compare with the county. So after that exam, everyone would not pay attention to a student from a township.
No one thought that this student actually defeated the student in the provincial capital and won the top prize in the college entrance examination!
This result was beyond everyone’s expectations!
Some people didn’t want to believe it, thinking that it might be the wrong name, so they used their contacts to call to inquire, but there was nothing wrong with the inquiry.
The college entrance examination champion is Qiao Niannian from Yunlai Middle School!
When the director of education in Baocheng County received the news, he was so happy that he almost dropped the phone on the ground: “You mean the top pick in the college entrance examination is our Yunlai Middle School?”
Although it is not a school in the county seat, Yunlai Town is under the jurisdiction of Baocheng County, so the top pick in the college entrance examination is still theirs!
“Yes, it’s yours. By the way, according to the rules of previous years, the Education Bureau will send someone to interview the student at that time, and you will let the student know and let her be prepared!”
The personnel over the provincial capital heard his voice several decibels high, and felt sourness almost coming out of his mouth.
The director of education of Baocheng County laughed so hard that he couldn’t close his mouth: “Okay, no problem, I’ll let people inform her, no, I will inform her myself!”
The man couldn’t stand his croaking, so he hung up the phone “pop”.
The Director of Boseong Education held the phone and laughed for a long time. The Director of the Education Bureau walked in and saw him like this. He was shocked and thought he had a stroke!
But when he learned about the college entrance examination champion, he also joined the ranks of the Secretary of Education giggly.
Come on, this is another crazy one!
Immediately afterwards, the “crazy” people were expanded from the county education bureau to the Yunlai Town Education Bureau, and then to the leadership of Yunlai Middle School, and the team continued to grow.
When the principal of Yunlai Middle School rushed to Qiao’s house on a broken bicycle, everyone was preparing dinner.
The principal yelled loudly, and the people around immediately heard it.
So soon everyone in the neighbors knew that they came out with a college entrance examination champion. This champion is no one else, but the Qiao family!
Everyone was envious.
Anyone who lives nearby didn’t know that Qiao Zhenjun had a well-behaved, good-looking daughter who was able to study. Everyone was envious of her, but no one thought she was so amazing!
Actually defeated the students in the entire provincial capital and won the college entrance examination champion in one fell swoop!
What the principal means is that not only the provincial capital will send people to interview, but also a lot of money will be rewarded!
I really envy people. How come such a good child is not from their family?
So that night, every household rang out the voice of educating their own children.
Qiao Zhenjun and Lin Hui knew that Da Qiao had become the No. 1 in the college entrance examination, and both of them were so happy that their eyes were red.
Especially Qiao Zhenjun, who also hid secretly to wipe his tears.
Da Qiao was a little stutter back then, and he was more full of speech and walking than ordinary children. He didn’t know how worried he was. Later, he was paralyzed. He thought that the child would be very miserable in the future.
Unexpectedly, he was paralyzed, Qiao’s family became wealthy day by day, and Da Qiao became the provincial college entrance examination champion.
On this day, he couldn’t even dream of it!
Huo Chi walked to Da Qiao after all the blessed people had dispersed.
He took out a gift and looked at her in a low voice: “Congratulations, Qiao Niannian children!”
