Doing It Over Again - Chapter 5
Life after school is very simple. In his last life, he usually read some books at home for self-examination, so it is not difficult to regain the knowledge at the beginning. On the contrary, he feels that the knowledge points in the test now are simpler than in the future, at least there will be no problems. It’s okay to take a bunch of Olympiad problems for children to do as ordinary homework problems.
As a socially acquainted adult, it is not very difficult for him to befriend a group of half-year-old children, so although he is the number one known to all grades, he usually plays basketball with other boys to exercise.
The school’s playground is a cement floor, and there is no so-called rubber track. The track is a dirt track. There is a basketball hoop in the middle of the playground, and a ping-pong table is built with bricks in the corner of the track. This is the physical education class of the experimental middle school. As for the football fields, tennis courts, and swimming pools that many schools have in the future, they are all absent.
However, most of the current students are also very satisfied. The table tennis table made of sand bricks can also play table tennis well. Most of the students in this period will play table tennis, but it is only a matter of skill. The badminton that I like to play doesn’t even need a venue. As long as you have a badminton racket that costs less than ten yuan, and then draw a dividing line in the middle, you can play very lively.
The world of half-old children is very naive. As long as they meet physical education classes and music classes, they will all smile. If it is three classes in Chinese, mathematics, and English, the joyful atmosphere even after class will be different.
Nearly two months after the start of school, Shen Shao was serious and eager to learn but did not deviate from the collective image. It had already been deeply ingrained in the hearts of teachers and classmates in the first class. When curious people in other classes asked what kind of person he was, classmates in the same class Most of them are in a tone of admiration, and few are jealous. When people are young, they only speak according to their own feelings, not according to their interests. It is clear whether they like it or not, but the heart of insisting on right and wrong has gradually become smooth and long-sleeved.
No matter what happens in the future, the current experimental class will face one of the biggest problems, that is, the mid-term exam. This is the most important test since they entered the school. The most important thing is to rank all grades, and then post the result list on the bulletin board, which simply adds invisible pressure to them. So in the past few days, I went out to play less. After class, I just sat on my seat and read a book in addition to going to the toilet. As the saying goes, it’s not easy to grind a gun before the battle, and they can’t lose the face of the experimental class.
Those students in the class who came in through the back door were more nervous than others, because if their grades for this semester were in the bottom ten of the class, they might be assigned to the regular class. It would be too embarrassing to be sent to the regular class after entering the experimental class.
I don’t know who asked Shen Shao to ask questions. After getting a detailed answer from the other party, other students in the class also began to ask Shen Shao when they encountered problems. There are some good grades in the class, but they pretend that I don’t know how to do it, because I’m worried that they will be good in the exam after they do it? Why doesn’t Shen Shao have that kind of careful thought?
Shen Shao didn’t expect that more and more students would come to him to help answer questions after class, and when he got there, he felt like a little teacher in the class.
“Hey, did you hear that?” Yang Hongqiang approached Shen Shao with a mysterious face, “Their ordinary class threatened to say that our experimental class has a good reputation, and our grades are not much better than theirs?”
“Well, many students in the ordinary class have really good grades.” Shen Shao felt that the classification of students was not very good, but with the national conditions, he didn’t have much to say. But the dissatisfaction of the ordinary class in the experimental class is also normal. After all, no one wants to admit that they are worse than others.
“No matter how good the results are in front of you, that’s the same thing.” After Yang Hongqiang and Shen Shao were at the same table, according to his words, the worship of Shen Shao was like a surging river. Good grades, good looks, even good sports, teachers like it, classmates like it, who else in this class can do this.
Yang Hongqiang didn’t know that such people would be called “male gods” or “winners in life” in ten or twenty years.
“Thinking so much, you might as well think about how to make your mid-term grades look better,” Shen Shao took out the math book from the drawer. “The next class is math. Be careful, Teacher Yang asks you to get up and answer the questions.”
Yang Hongqiang froze immediately, looking at the neat notes on Shen Shao’s math book, and then looking at the pages of his book that didn’t contain a single word, he suddenly felt that it was not unreasonable that he was the first in the class, at least he was in Study hard.
Originally, every day of study and life was so peaceful, but I don’t know who came out with news that Shen Shao was an orphan with no father or mother, and his family was so poor.
Since Shen Shao is a well-known top student in all grades, the gossip about him quickly spread to many classmates, and later various versions were spread.
After hearing about these rumors, some of the students in Class 1 didn’t believe it, and some talked secretly behind their backs. There are many classmates with good family conditions in the class. They usually don’t see how poor Shen Shao’s family conditions are. Even in their daily contact, they think that Shen Shao is a very good tutor.
Therefore, after the mid-term exam, many students hesitated in front of Shen Shao, and there were fewer students who liked to ask him questions. Shen Shao has also heard about these rumors, but he doesn’t care about them, anyway, this kind of words won’t affect him.
Before the holiday on Friday afternoon, Yang Hongqiang, who had been holding back for several days, saw the relaxed appearance of his deskmate, and finally couldn’t help but ask, “Shen Shao, is what your classmates said about you true?”
As soon as he said this, all the tablemates in the front and back seats focused on Shen Shao, and they seemed to be very interested in this issue.
“You mean the rumor that my mother committed suicide and that my father ran away with other women?” Because it was going to be a holiday, Shen Shao packed up some textbooks to go home to read. Hearing Yang Hongqiang ask this question, he paused, then lowered his head. He said in a low voice: “What they said is true. Now I rely on the money left by my mother to study and rent a house. If you look down on me and don’t want to be friends with me, I won’t blame you.”
“How, how can I look down on you,” Yang Hongqiang explained stammeringly, “I didn’t mean that, I just… just care about you, really!”
“Yeah, don’t be sad, none of us have other ideas.” The girl in the front seat, Yang Xiaoxia, was in business at home. Although her grades were not good, she still entered the experimental class after helping her out. “We just Some just don’t believe it, nothing else.”
Shen Shao knew that he had some intentions of taking advantage of these children’s sympathy, but in this case, this kind of treatment method was more gentle, and it was much better than explaining it solemnly, or saying how pitiful he was when he saw people: “That’s good, I’m just worried that after everyone knows this, they won’t be willing to be friends with me.”
Several classmates looked at the bright smile on Shen Shao’s face. They were still young and didn’t know what the soft and numb feeling in their hearts was, but subconsciously, they had another layer of goodwill towards Shen Shao, and they were even more reluctant. Shen Shao was saddened by the rumors outside, but instead began to persuade Shen Shao with childish language.
Shen Shao looked at these classmates and couldn’t help laughing. This kindness and innocence belonging to children are precious.
Because the students of the third grade do not need to make up lessons this week, and even the students of the first and second grades do not have to study in the evening on Friday nights. Therefore, the students of the first and second grades prefer the monthly leave for the third grade students, so that they can also attend Two classes less.
As soon as school was over in the afternoon, there were countless students riding bicycles home in the experimental middle school. Shen Shao held a few books, looked at these energetic students, and walked towards his rental house with a smile.
As soon as he got downstairs, he heard news that there was a family downstairs who wanted to sell their old house, a total of 110 square meters of house, for only more than 25,000 yuan, including all the furniture and appliances in the house. . However, because many rural people are still in the thinking stage of making money to build a two-story building, they think that even living in the city has to pay for water, and they cannot farm the land to ensure their livelihood, so few people are willing to spend tens of thousands of yuan to buy a house. After all, For many people, 20,000 to 30,000 yuan is almost all their savings.
Shen Shao was a little moved, because he remembered that this place would be requisitioned by planning in two years, and the demolition households would receive a large amount of compensation, and even the dilapidated tile-roofed houses in those corners would receive a large amount of compensation.
At this time, even the average price of commercial housing in the capital is only two or three thousand yuan per square meter, let alone a small county like them, so the price of second-hand housing of 25,000 yuan is indeed biased according to the current market. high.
After Shen Shao found the owner to talk about buying a house, the other party didn’t believe that half-year-old children had the ability to buy a house, but seeing Shen Shao’s serious attitude and discussing the price with him, the other party had to say a few words casually in the mood to try it out. sentence.
Unexpectedly, in the end, Shen Shao, a half-old child, really bought the house at a price of 23,800 yuan, and waited for the house transfer procedures to be completed. The owner of the house didn’t care how Shen Shao had so much money, but happily told Shen Shao how filial his daughter was and how developed the capital was, and they would soon go to the capital to live there.
Shen Shao has been listening quietly, and when it is time to part, he seems to carelessly ask, who else is selling a house nearby, and they have relatives who are also interested in buying two sets.
The landlord was overjoyed when he heard the words. If he got the lead, he could get some referral fees. He immediately patted his chest and promised that he would be able to help Shen Shao contact several houses to buy within a few days, but some houses did not have theirs. good.
Shen Shao bought these houses for the purpose of demolition in the future, so he didn’t care about the houses. So one day later, with the help of the homeowner, after seeing the house, she began to negotiate the price with these homeowners, and finally bought three more houses. By the way, she also bought a slightly dilapidated house for 5,000 yuan. tile house.
After getting the transfer procedures for these houses, Shen Shao is more fortunate that there is no house purchase restriction policy, as long as you have money, you can buy a few houses. And the state has not stipulated that minors cannot be housed or enthroned, otherwise, even if he knows that there is such an opportunity, he can only watch it.
After returning home, he took off the black-rimmed glasses on his face and took off the bat shirt on his body. Looking at the several real estate licenses in his hand, he breathed a long sigh of relief.
There are a few house rental notices posted outside. Now these houses are unoccupied, and it is a waste to be empty. It is better to rent out the house, which can also cover his monthly living expenses.
No matter how small the mosquito’s legs are, it is still meat, not to mention that he is not very rich now.
After the weekend, for the students of the experimental middle school, the biggest thing is that the mid-term exam results are coming out soon. If the exam is too bad, after the parent-teacher meeting, their end will be miserable.
