Chapter 69 Evening Study(1/2)
Zhang Xinyi and Jiang Shuyi are the two school beauties of Zhou Zhi and his class, and they are indistinguishable.
However, in the secret evaluation by the boys in the school, Zhang Xinyi had the upper hand among the day students, and Jiang Shuyi had the upper hand among the boarding students.
Over the ranking, day students and boarding students even had several private fights. The school didn't know about these things, and I'm afraid the two parties involved didn't know either.
"So Zhang Xinyi's parents and your parents are family friends, and now Jiang Shuyi and you are still old classmates and deskmates?" Mu Ruyun couldn't help but be extremely envious of Zhou Zhi's luck: "God, what kind of world is this?!
"
Zhou Zhi felt aggrieved: "I didn't do it on purpose!"
"..."
The relationship between Zhang Xinyi and Zhou Zhi is not a secret in school. Some classmates who have a good relationship with Zhou Zhi even asked Zhou Zhi to pass on their love letters after learning about this relationship.
Those letters were not even dared to be peeked at, let alone hidden, and they were only dared to be handed over honestly.
He was really a little afraid of Zhang Xinyi.
In the eyes of many classmates, Zhou Zhi is probably just Zhang Xinyi's licking dog.
Even Zhou Zhi himself was baffled. This guy clearly had no intention of licking a dog, but he did things that only licking a dog would do. He couldn't find any other explanation other than being a bitch.
"The questions this time are too difficult." Zhang Xinyi tapped the tip of his pen on the table, looking at the gloating expressions of the students who were doing Paper B: "How could the teachers do this?"
"Be mentally prepared." Zhou Zhi said: "I guess this is a teaching reform in the school. It will be like this in all subjects, especially mathematics."
Zhang Xinyi's face suddenly turned pale again. Mathematics was her big problem.
Jiang Shuyi was even filled with tears: "Then this time...I will go home..."
"It doesn't matter. I'll go back with you this week and explain it to your parents then."
"Are you going back to Rongshan this week?" Jiang Shuyi was surprised again.
"Well, I haven't gone to visit my eldest lady this winter vacation."
Jiang Shuyi patted her chest: "Thank you for your thoughtfulness."
Mu Ruyun on the side was also about to cry, but it was not because of the exam.
This bastard traitor, look how expert and unpretentious this routine is, and he gets close to another girl every minute!
Sure enough, at the end of the day, every subject is like this.
At noon, Zhou Zhi and her third sister went home for dinner, and then went back to school.
After school in the afternoon, Zhang Xinyi left. Jiang Shu noticed that Zhou Zhi was still reading a yellow book: "Huh? Zhou Zhi, why aren't you out of school yet?"
"Oh. I also have to study in the evening, and I'll have dinner at school soon."
"Really? Then I'll treat you to dinner, and you can tell me about writing and submitting articles."
"Is the new issue of "Bashu Literature" out?"
"I've never read this magazine, Zhou Zhi, you read so many books."
"I don't have this at home. I just bought an issue after I submitted it for publication. If nothing unexpected happens, there should be another article in this issue."
"Really? Let's go to the post office now! Let's go!"
"Then I'll treat you to eating outside."
The two ran out of the school, went down the mountain along the stone stairs, and finally arrived at the magazine stand next to the post office just before it was about to close.
"Auntie, has the new issue of "Bashu Literature" arrived?" Zhou Zhi asked.
Today's "People's Literature" and "October" are still in hot demand. If you don't subscribe, they will basically be sold out when you arrive at the store. "Bashu Literature" is not so good. The saleswoman said: "It just arrived, how many copies do you want?"
"One copy." Zhou Zhi said.
"Two copies! I'll buy one too! Do you still have the last issue? If so, I want one too!" Jiang Shuyi was very anxious.
"The last issue is gone." The saleswoman took out two copies of this issue: "Five dollars."
To be honest, as a magazine, this book is quite expensive now.
Jiang Shuyi took it over and looked down at the catalog. Zhou Zhi rushed to give all the money first: "How about it? Do you have it?"
"Found it!" Jiang Shuyi picked up the book: "Short story, "Her Faith", author: Zhou Zhi! Zhou Zhi, you are so awesome!"
"Oh, you are so thoughtful?! You've logged in again?!" The saleswoman was overjoyed: "Young man is so awesome, let me see where he is?"
Zhou Zhi, on the other hand, looked confused: "My novel is not called that. Is it the author of the same name?"
He quickly took the book and opened it: "Ah?! The editor changed the title of the novel for me!"
"Does that count as what you wrote?" The saleswoman was worried at first.
"Yeah." Zhou Zhi nodded.
"Hi!" The saleswoman finally put down her worries and said with a smile on her face: "This kid! This scared your aunt!"
"Thank you, aunt! Let's go." Jiang Shuyi happily held two books of "Bashu Literature" and said, "I still have to study in the evening!"
"Go, go, study hard..." The aunt smiled and watched the two of them go away, and then said to herself: "Hey! You are really capable at such a young age!"
We found a small stall on the roadside and ordered two bowls of beef rice noodles. While waiting for the rice noodles, Zhou Zhi took two pairs of chopsticks and boiled them in a pot. Jiang Shuyi had already opened the impurities and started reading.
"Zhou Zhi, what is the original name of your novel?"
"A special party member."
"I have read the interview between you and grandma, and I think the title of your novel is far worse than what the editor chose."
"That's right. Otherwise, where is the editor? I'm here to eat rice noodles. I'll save it for the evening self-study."
"It's not like I said a treat doesn't count. You should treat me to this meal. I just received two hundred yuan in the morning, and it was published in the magazine in the afternoon. It's a double happiness!"
"Not only that, but also reunited with old classmates, triple happiness!"
Jiang Shuyi's face immediately turned red: "This... doesn't count... I've been here for half the semester, but you didn't notice me..."
"It's not that I didn't pay attention, it's that I couldn't believe it. I saw you during recess last semester and I couldn't believe it was really you."
"Well, I'll invite you next time. Ah, it's so hot..."
"If it's hot, eat it slowly. Anyway, there's nothing wrong with studying tonight."
After finishing the rice noodles, the two of them started to rush to school again. By the time they got back to school, the evening self-study had already started for a few minutes.
Because there were no study tasks on the first day of school, everyone was chatting and talking. When Zhou Zhi and Jiang Shuyi entered the classroom at the same time, it suddenly became silent.
All the students looked at the two of them with strange eyes.
"Uh... well... Zhou Zhi has published another article, this time it's a novel." Jiang Shuyi was a little flustered: "I accompanied him to the post office to buy books..."
"Boom——" There was another commotion in the classroom.
"real?!"
"You are so awesome with your elbow!"
"Shu Yi, come and sit next to me, let's watch together!"
"Jiang Shuyi, you have two books! One for each..."
Xu Youzhi walked in at this time and frowned at the noisy scene: "What are you doing?! I see that all of you are worried! You are very satisfied with your test results, right?!"
"Mu Ruyun! Jiang Shuyi! How did you take the lead?!"
Jiang Shuyi was so frightened that she stuck out her tongue and quickly ran back to her seat and sat down obediently.
Mu Ruyun said: "Teacher Xu, Zhou Zhi's article has been published in "Bashu Literature" again, this time it is a novel."
"Oh, really?" Xu Youzhi became more excited now: "Where is it?!"
"Here, Jiang Shuyi and Zhou Zhi bought two copies."
Xu Youzhi walked to Jiang Shuyi's seat, took a copy, and walked to the podium: "We have all started self-study. If there is no homework, let's preview."
"Teacher Xu, please read us a thoughtful novel!" a classmate shouted.
"Yes! Teacher Xu, please read it to us!"
Xu Youzhi opened the magazine and glanced at it, briefly reviewing it: "Jiang Shuyi, please read it to your classmates."
"Yeah." Jiang Shuyi opened the magazine in her hand: "Short story, "Her Faith", author, Zhou Zhi."
"Shu Yi." Zhou Zhi turned around and stopped Jiang Shuyi.
"how?"
"This novel should be read in Jiachuan dialect to make it more immersive."
"oh."
Jiang Shuyi blushed slightly and changed to Jiachuan dialect: "On both sides of the stone road in Dajing Township, the tender grass that has been pulled out from the heads of the grasshoppers is still hanging with bright dewdrops.
On the opposite side of the road, the bamboo forest covers the large field ridge leading to the new house foundation, and behind it can be faintly heard the barking of the black dog at home on the other side of the field bay.
In the big pot, the soy milk was boiling and there were more and more bubbles.
The chicken feather shop on the roadside has been busy since Yinshi. The steam, illuminated by firewood and oil lamps, creates a chaotic and strange light, just like this year..."
