Ordinary people's rice bowl

Chapter 557
Hu Guoqing returned to Xiaowangzhuang as scheduled as agreed with Mu Zhen when he left Xiaowangzhuang.

Mu Zhen, who had had breakfast, stood at the gate of her house and saw Hu Guoqing turning from the main road, and immediately went up to meet him: "I was expecting you to come, have you eaten yet?"

"I ate in Qingcheng Town. I went to school yesterday and met Teacher Zhang!" Hu Guoqing replied after getting off his bicycle.

"What's the matter?" Mu Zhen didn't understand Hu Guoqing's going to school.

"I didn't have anything to do at first, but I just wanted to visit my classmates and teachers. Teacher Zhang saw me, asked about your situation, and repeatedly said that Principal Lang went to the Education Bureau because of your business, but he still couldn't change the ending. No If the method is changed again, the school has done its best, it seems that you don't need to consider taking the technical secondary school, and we will still study side by side in the future!"

When Mu Zhen heard her father tell the Education Bureau about the phone call, she was already disheartened about taking the technical secondary school exam. Now hearing Hu Guoqing mentioning this matter again, she no longer feels much, and said resentfully: "Fate deserves it." So, just go with the flow!"

"Don't say that. Since I met you, I can see that you are an open-minded person. You mentioned our first batch of admissions that day. You are also very happy?"

"For some reason, it turned out that he always wanted me to be admitted to a technical secondary school, but now that I am admitted to a high school, he doesn't insist so much, which is my regret!" Mu Zhen replied.

"It's no wonder, it's not because you listened to the adults!" The words Hu Guoqing said were not light, and Mu Zhen didn't realize it for a while, and looked at Hu Guoqing blankly.

"What? Let me speak from the bottom of my heart?" Hu Guoqing waved his hand in front of Mu Zhen's face.

"Look at what kind of seeds are planted in people's hearts, they will be bound by this kind of seeds, and it is difficult to get out of this shadow. Now don't care whether what you say makes sense, anyway, raw rice is cooked, it just doesn't go well. , It seems that I can't help my family!"

"Don't say it so pitifully? In the eyes of others, this is a very glorious thing. Why is it almost a tragedy when it comes to you?"

"It's not as pitiful as you said. Although there are regrets, it will not be a tragedy. At least our studies have improved to a higher level and there is no stagnation. Don't you think so?"

Hu Guoqing heard Mu Zhen's change, clapped his hands and said, "I love what you say!"

"Don't just tell me what you like to hear, but tell me how you went home this time?" Mu Zhen asked.

Before Hu Guoqing could answer, he heard a voice saying hello: "Why didn't Mu Zhen go to school?"

Mu Zhen turned her head and saw a person standing on the side of the road. This person was Ma Chunwu who lived in the west of the village: "Master, I just finished my exam and now I'm on vacation!"

Hu Guoqing noticed that the person who greeted Mu Zhen was about 40 years old, about 1.8 meters tall, and with a slightly fat body, he looked a bit burly, especially the big backed head that showed his identity, which seemed to be a bit of a background.

"Last year, the second child finished his high school exams, and the vacation was only in July. Why did you let it go so early?" These words were said casually and naturally, but to Mu Zhen's ears, they sounded a little sarcastic.

This Ma Chunwu has three sons, whose nicknames are called eldest son, second son, and third son. The second son is named Ma Wen. Although he is three years older than Mu Zhen, I don’t know whether it is because of his late development or some other reason. He started school in the first grade of elementary school. Three years, in the last year of study, I became classmates with Mu Zhen who just entered the school. The strange thing is that Ma Wen didn't look at the first grade for three years, but the latecomers came first. Very well, the only one who competed with Mu Zhen in the class in elementary school was Ma Wen, who started late.

At this time, when Ma Chunwu mentioned her son who was admitted to high school last year, Mu Zhen felt a ripple in her heart. Could it be that she was trying to ridicule herself, so she lied and responded: "Originally, I only finished the exam in July. This year is different from last year. , I took the exam early this year, so I will have an early holiday!"

"Did you pass the exam?" Ma Chunwu didn't seem to hear Mu Zhen's displeasure, and continued to ask.

Hu Guoqing, who was standing opposite Mu Zhen, read the word "annoying" from Mu Zhen's face, and replied, "I have been admitted to No. [-] Middle School. Not only did I pass the exam, but I also got the first place in the county!"

Ma Chunwu said repeatedly as if he was making fun of himself: "Okay, okay, you are really talented!"

Mu Zhen smiled at Hu Guoqing.

At this moment, Ma Chunwu quietly walked away.
