Stepmother

    Song Zhaodi pulled the chair that Shen Xuancheng had sat on to Zhong Jianguo, sat next to him, followed him to look at the jade plate that seemed to be hanging in the sky, and couldn't help laughing: "How come there are so many in the world? If so. Don't think about the past."

    "Shen Xuancheng cried. The old man in his 40s didn't know why he had so many tears. He cried for half an hour." Zhong Jianguo wiped his face, "This is all It's the end of September on the Gregorian calendar, and Mr. Qi hasn't called, so I guess the process isn't going well."

    Song Zhaodi: "After ten years of hiatus, the teacher will die and the casualties will be injured. It is certain that it will not go well. However, the few people in power are all generals who are decisive and unequivocal, and this year will definitely be the case. Can recover. By the way, what time is it?"

    "Before you came back, the clock seemed to be ringing nine times, it was past nine o'clock." Zhong Jianguo thought about it carefully.

    Song Zhaodi got up and took Zhong Jianguo's arm: "Don't worry about spring and autumn, take a shower and go upstairs to sleep."

    "I'll sit for a while." Zhong Jianguo didn't move, "Nine o'clock is still early, and ten o'clock is not too late."

    Song Zhaodi bent down and stared at Zhong Jianguo's face for a while. Seeing that he didn't cry, he didn't look uncomfortable: "Are you feeding mosquitoes here?"

    "There are mint all around, where are the mosquitoes." Zhong Jianguo pushed her head away, "Don't block me from admiring the moon."

    Song Zhaodi gave him a deep look: "Are you admiring the moon? I think you are thinking about Chang'e coming to you."

    Zhong Jianguo couldn't help rubbing his forehead, stood up, and said helplessly, "Can't you let me be quiet for a while?"

    "I'm afraid you'll be thinking about it again." Song Zhaodi grabbed his arm, "Let's go, let's go. Sanwazi, you are not allowed to play with water anymore, hurry up and go to bed, it's almost ten o'clock ."

    Sanwa's hands trembled in fright, dropped the towel into the basin, and whispered to Zhen Gang, who was standing opposite him: "How does mother know I'm playing?"

    "I probably heard you laugh." Zhen Gang gave him his towel, "Quickly wipe and put on your shorts, don't catch a cold. The teacher said that it is most likely to catch a cold when it is hot in the daytime and cold at night."

    Sanwa quickly wiped her body, picked up the bottom of her trousers on the bench, and said to Zhengang, "I'll go out first, and then I'll tell my mother, I'll wash it first."

    "Sanwazi, I heard." Dawa's voice came from outside.

    Sanwa's hands trembled, and the bottom of her pants fell into the sink.

    Zhen Gang was happy.

    Sanwa's face changed greatly, she opened her throat and shouted: "Mother, big brother bullied me."

    "My mother is right next to me." Zhong Dawa said.

    Sanwa froze.

    Zhen Gang also laughed enough: "I'll go get you another pair of pants."

    "What happened to his pants?" Dawa asked as he pushed open the door.

    Zhen Gang pointed at the basin: "It fell into it. You suddenly spoke, scaring him."

    "I'm guilty of being a thief." Zhong Dawa slapped his ass, "No one is looking at you at night, so just run in."

    There are many children in the house, bathing in the house will make the ground like a flood. Zhong Jianguo built a boxy hut outside, and this hut was built against the north wall.

    The door of Zhong's house faces south, and you have to run half a circle around the small building from the bathroom to the living room. Sanwa is eleven years old and knows she is shy. When Dawa said this, Sanwa would beat him.

    Dawa pointed to the towel in his hand: "Wrap the important parts with this."

    "Then how do I go upstairs?" Sanwa asked again.

    The big baby smiled: "Jump up."

    "No!" Zhen Gang said quickly, "What should I do if I fall down? Sanwa, wait here, I'll go get you **** now." Zhuo pulled his shoes and ran into the house .

    Seeing the clothes hanger under the corridor, Zhen Gang turned a corner and picked a pair of shorts from above, whether it was his or Erwa's, and put it on Sanwa: "Hurry up. "

    "Wait for me, let's go together." Sanwa put on shorts, took Zhengang's hand, went to the living room and said, "Mother, I didn't play. I took a bath with Zhengang, a little slow."

    Song Zhaodi was too lazy to dismantle him: "Go upstairs."

    "Okay." Sanwa took Zhen Gang and ran upstairs.

    Zhen Gang grabbed him: "Don't run, walk slowly."

    Song Zhaodi frowned and whispered, "Listen to what Zhengang means, is there still a shadow on the stairs?"

    "Sure." Zhong Jianguo pointed at the busy sons in the kitchen, "I said sit down for a while, you have to drag me into the room. Can you take a shower when you come in?"

      When he came out of the kitchen, he heard Zhong Jianguo's words and put the bucket in front of him: "Dad, you and mother wash first."

    "Get out!" Zhong Jianguo waved his hand, "Don't be mad at me here."

    Reborn smiled and said, "You don't want to." Without waiting for him to speak, he took the water and left.

    The two of them did not deliberately lower their voices, and the three brothers in the kitchen also heard it. Erwa said loudly, "Dad, mother, let's boil another pot of hot water, and we can wash it later."

    "Got it." Song Zhaodi reminded them, "Be on your own, be careful when scooping hot water, don't burn your hands."

    Zhong Jianguo couldn't help reminding: "I'm seventeen years old, not seven years old."

    "Because when he was young, I said he was used to it, and he couldn't change it for a while, can't he?" Song Zhaodi stared at him and asked.

    Zhong Jianguo: "Yes, yes. I'll go upstairs to get my clothes." I jumped up the stairs in three or two steps.

    Song Zhaodi snorted.

    Zhong Jianguo couldn't help but speed up.

    The next day, it rained heavily. This year, Song Zhaodi was no longer worried. The child's clothes got wet and there was no clean clothes to change. Because Qi Lao gave a lot of cloth tickets, each child has four sets of long clothes and trousers.

    Song Zhaodi led Zhengang, Erwa and Sanwa to school, and took her three younger brothers to wash the clothes they changed yesterday and put them on the hangers under the corridor.

    Just as the clothes were washed, the phone of the Zhong family rang.

    When it was almost twelve o'clock, Song Zhaodi led the three children home, and saw the four eldest sons sitting in a row, their faces were not very good-looking.

    Song Zhaodi froze for a while, pretending to be calm: "Is the meal ready?"

    "I haven't done it yet." I stood up on my own, "Mom, I'll do it now."

    Song Zhaodi: "What happened?"

    "Grandpa Qi is calling." Dawa couldn't hold back her words, "Grandpa Qi said that the test time for this time is set by the provinces themselves, and the test papers will be produced by themselves. The school will start from January to February next year. The specific time and admission scores are also determined by each college itself.

     "Grandpa Qi also said that if there are enough admissions from Didu University and Shencheng University is not able to start classes for the time being, even if we report to Didu University, the future graduation certificate may also be issued to us by Shencheng University."

    Song Zhaodi frowned: "What else did you say?"

     "Grandpa Qi said that if Gengsheng goes to the Imperial Capital to take the exam, he can guarantee that he will be a student of Imperial University. If you are here, it will be a little troublesome." Dawa said, " Grandpa Qi also said that there is no military university in the school that resumes classes this time, and it will have to wait until next year." After a pause, "there is a military academy."

    Song Zhaodi looked at her sons: "Have you discussed it?"

    "Teacher, I want to go to Hangzhou Normal College and come back to be a teacher in the future." Zhenxing said, "I'm afraid that when I graduate, the normal school will become an agricultural college or something. Teacher, I think Wait until next year to test again.”

    Song Zhaodi looked at Zili: "All military universities will not enroll students this year?"

    "Yes, but the guidance major has to wait until next year." Zili said, "Mother, I want to wait until next year to take the test again."

    Song Zhaodi did the math: "Is the exam time next year in July?"

    Nodding independently.

    Song Zhaodi: "Take the exam this year, enroll in February next year, take the exam in July next year, and enroll on September 1st, just half a year later? In half a year, your father and I support you. What did your grandfather say? ?"

    "Grandpa said that you and my father raised me and I so much. Without you, even if we wanted to take the college entrance examination, we would have to go to high school for another three years." Zili said, "Grandpa said to listen to you and Dad's."

    Song Zhaodi: "I will listen to you. However, I have to remind you that if someone on the island is admitted to a university, you can't be impetuous, and you have to be as honest as you are now. Read books and do questions."

    "Mother, you said it all, it's not easy to get into college." Zhong Dawa said, "There are a lot of people on the island about the same size as us, and I don't think many of them can pass the test."

    Song Zhaodi reminded him: "After three years of junior high school, you have learned the knowledge of high school, and others have learned it."

    "But it's been more than a year since we graduated." Dawa said, "We haven't left our textbooks, how about them?"

    Song Zhaodi was dumbfounded: "You are right. When will it be announced to the public? Self-reliance."

    "I don't know, Grandpa didn't say it." Zili said, "Maybe it hasn't been decided yet."

    Song Zhaodi thought about it: "It should be fixed. Now it's the end of September in the solar calendar, and there are still more than three months until the Chinese New Year. Old Qi is afraid that you will leak your tongue. Let's cook."

    "Mother, is this settled?" Zili said, "I will call Grandpa in the afternoon?"

    Song Zhaodi: "Go back now to save your grandfather from worrying."

    Zhong Jianguo came back at night, and Song Zhaodi told him about it. Zhong Jianguo hopes that his sons can enter their ideal universities, and also agrees that several children will take the exam next year.

    The family doesn't care when the college entrance examination will resume. Once you don't care, life goes by quickly.

    October 21st, in the morning, when Song Zhaodi saw the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination in the newspaper, she was stunned for a while, and almost didn't recover. Just as she was about to tell her son the news, a loud cry came from next door.

    Song Zhaodi ran out subconsciously, and saw Sun Wanru standing in the yard holding a newspaper, jumping and jumping excitedly, she couldn't help but say, "Is she crazy?"

    "I'm not crazy, but I'm not far from crazy." The children were washing clothes, Zhong Jianguo was cleaning the duck pens, Sun Wanru shouted, Zhong Jianguo slipped under his feet, and almost fell on the shit, and he couldn't wait. Go to the next door and beat her up, "Headmaster Shen decided to divorce a month ago, and he has not left. I asked him why, and he said that he wanted to wait for the news to be announced before sending Sun Wanru off the island. I don't know how to cherish such a good man, and he will have more in the future. She regrets it."

    Song Zhaodi: "A's honey, B's arsenic." After a pause, "Besides, maybe Sun Wanru is ready."

    "Just her brain?" Zhong Jianguo snorted, "It's almost as good as preparing to drink the northwest wind."
