Ordinary people's rice bowl

Chapter 85 Reversal of Thought
Old Mu rode his bike to Qingcheng Middle School, and it was already the end of school time. He was worried that he would have to talk to some acquaintances, and Mu Zhen's academic performance was not outstanding, which made him feel embarrassed.These made him stop involuntarily, and stood on the side of the road at the school gate, watching the day students pouring out of the school gate.

Although Lao Mu and the teachers here have intersected and know a lot, but not many people are really familiar with them, so he hopes that after the students come out, the school teachers will find Mu Zhen in Mu Zhen's class when they are having dinner, and leave them for him. Take some money and go back immediately.

When he was thinking about whether to ask the students who passed by where the third grade classroom was, he suddenly heard a voice: "Mr. Mu, who are you waiting for here?"

This voice made Lao Mu hear very clearly. Although he was not sure that the voice was greeting him, after all, there were more teachers surnamed Mu than those with big surnames like Zhang Wang, Li Liu, and Lao Mu followed the voice.

"Mr. Xie, you still go home after school!" Lao Mu hurriedly responded when he found Teacher Xie standing not far from him.

"Yeah, you must be here to watch the children! Didn't you just finish the weekend yesterday? Why do you miss the children after a day of absence?" Teacher Xie walked up to Lao Mu with a smile on his face, and stretched his arms towards Lao Mu. Let's do it.

Old Mu didn't dare to be negligent, he hurriedly stretched out his right hand as he moved forward, held Teacher Xie's outstretched hand, then reached into his pocket with his left hand and took out a cigarette, when he let go of his right hand, he instantly pulled out a cigarette and handed it up.

Teacher Xie also hurriedly took out a cigarette and handed it to Lao Mu.

"Smoke mine, you're welcome!" Lao Mu said, blocking Teacher Xie's hand to pass the cigarette back, handing the cigarette he had drawn to Teacher Xie's hand, and then hastily pulled out another one and put it in his mouth. At the same time, he quickly took out a match, lit one, put his hands on it, and sent it to Teacher Xie's mouth.

Teacher Xie hurriedly helped cover it, put the smoke from his mouth on the weak flame of the match, took two puffs suddenly, and a wisp of green smoke drifted from the fingers of the two of them.

Lao Mu skillfully struck a new match and lit his own.The two chatted.

"I've been here for more than two weeks, and I haven't seen the child go back. I'm worried, so I came to see it!" Lao Mu explained.

"Everyone in the third grade of junior high school had a rest yesterday. Those who should go home have gone home. Didn't your child go back?" Teacher Xie seemed a little puzzled.

"That's right! Otherwise, I wouldn't have to visit him!" Old Mu also felt a little unreasonable.

"Maybe it's because of studying. Isn't your child's name is Mu Zhen?" Teacher Xie's mind suddenly popped up Mu Zhen's name, and then said it out to confirm with Lao Mu.

"Yes! Isn't he not in your class?" Lao Mu recalled the conversation with Teacher Xie during the holiday.

"Isn't it? Although the school has not been open for a long time, your son's reputation in the office is not small. The first composition in the class, your son's composition made all the teachers in the office know your son's name. Immediately after that, the teachers in the class In the math test, your son got a full score again, it seems that your son is really smart." Teacher Xie said, with a smile of praise on his face.

"This is just the beginning, just like the long march of thousands of miles has not yet started, and there is still a long way to go!" Lao Mu was not as excited about his son's excellent performance as he was when he heard the excellent grades in Binhu Middle School. The grades can only represent the past, What does it mean to get a good grade just once?That's why Lao Mu cleverly responded to Mr. Xie's appreciation.

"What are you talking about? The final grades of students are like building the Great Wall. Excellent performance in any exam is like laying the foundation. Once the foundation is solid, excellent grades in the end will become inevitable!" Obviously, Teacher Xie is very concerned about Lao Mu. Opinions differ somewhat.

"That's true, but his grades when he entered school were not satisfactory, and I was disappointed in him at the time!" Old Mu couldn't help expressing his worries.

"Although I didn't pass the exam that time, maybe there is another reason?" Mr. Xie took a puff of cigarette while talking, and before Lao Mu could reply, he continued, "Look, I just talked, come home with me at noon Have a meal, and then come to see the children after eating."

"You are too polite. I have to rush back to school in the afternoon, and I will visit you when I have time." Lao Mu responded politely.

Teacher Xie stretched out his hand again, took Lao Mu's outstretched hand, and said, "Then you go in and look for him, he should be eating in the dormitory now, the dormitory is at the end along this road, the last row of rooms on the right west end."

"Thank you!" Old Mu withdrew his hand, smiled and waved goodbye to Teacher Xie.Go straight along the road facing the gate.

The children after school were in a hurry. When Lao Mu was talking to Teacher Xie, all the day-school children had already poured out of the school gate. The bustling crowd of people disappeared suddenly. At the entrance of the cafeteria, except for a few people queuing up to eat, there was almost no one there.

Regarding Mr. Xie's son's grades mentioned just now, although Lao Mu said verbally that the Long March has not yet started, he has added some confidence in his son's excellent performance in the past two weeks. It worked.

Lao Mu was not riding fast. He was afraid that there would be a son among the people who were cooking, so he turned his head and looked at him while riding slowly. As he got closer, Lao Mu seemed to have confirmed to the few people in line that his son was not there. Among them, Lao Mu suddenly sped up a bit. It took a few minutes to walk from the cafeteria to the last row of dormitories. Lao Mu's eagerness allowed him to see the door of his son's dormitory in less than a minute. He was standing on the west wall of the dormitory. He parked the car there and saw a classmate walking towards him with a lunch box. Old Mu asked directly, "Student, do you know Mu Zhen?"

That classmate stopped and looked at old Mu: "Mu Zhen is in this dormitory, you wait, I'll call him!" After speaking, he turned and walked towards the dormitory, and shouted at the window: "Mu Zhen, someone is looking for you !"

"Oh!" The room agreed, and quickly poked out a head from the door, looked out of the room, then rushed out, and stood in front of Lao Mu in an instant.

"Daddy, have you eaten yet?" Mu Zhen was a little surprised to see her father coming.

"No, you haven't been home for two weeks. Do you still have living expenses?" Old Mu spoke with concern in his tone. Just now Teacher Xie mentioned that Mu Zhen's changes in school have already made Lao Mu feel uncomfortable. Mu Zhen's opinion has taken a 180-degree turn. He feels that his son can still do it.

"Yes, I'm not short of money here!" Mu Zhen replied honestly.

Old Mu opened his mouth wide in shock: "When you came here, the ten yuan your mother gave you has been in two weeks, and you haven't spent it all yet. Are you not willing to spend it?"

"Why don't you want to spend the flowers? Isn't it that you haven't finished the flowers?" Mu Zhen still showed her composure.In fact, how did Old Mu know that the 50 yuan that Tian Cheng gave Mu Zhen had taken effect now, after spending the living expenses his mother gave him, what he was spending now was the money that Tian Cheng gave him at that time.

"I haven't spent all the ten yuan in two weeks? Don't be so frugal!" Lao Mu was a little puzzled, privately thinking that his son was embarrassed to ask for money from the family, and he was reluctant to spend it here. When he said this, his eyes suddenly felt a little moist, and he immediately took out ten yuan The money came and passed it to Mu Zhen: "I'll give you another ten yuan, don't be reluctant to spend it, I'll send it to you when you don't have it!"

"I won't spend money recklessly. I don't need to spend money on other things except for living. This place is far away from the town. Even if I want to spend, there is no place to spend it. Don't worry, I will take care of myself." Mu Zhen Seeing Lao Mu's eyes, he immediately confessed in a very affirmative tone.

"Okay, I won't stop. I still have a lot of things to do in school this afternoon, so I can rest assured that you take care of yourself!" After speaking, he pushed up the car, turned and walked towards the gate.

Mu Zhen looked at the back of old Mu Yuanqian, and if she realized something, the "Back View" written by Zhu Ziqing reappeared in front of her, and the back of old Mu who had gone away suddenly became taller. The solid arm that moves forward, it is this arm that allowed me to ride on this arm when I was young and watch the wonderful movie-"Three Fights of the Bones". It is this arm that allows me to make progress in my studies Come, Mu Zhen rubbed her eyes, turned around and walked into the dormitory.
