Rebirth: Starting from a Trainee Teacher

Chapter 397 Summer in the Countryside

The Internet cafe was ready to test Rhythm Master, and Zhou Jing asked the network administrator to open for business.

Soon people started pouring into the Internet cafe.

Zhou Jing walked around the Internet cafe and saw people surfing the Internet noticed the activity announcement on the computer screen and asked the network administrator whether the activity was real and valid. After confirming, they curiously clicked to enter the game.

The game icon is a dynamic musical note.

Double-click the icon and a tablet-sized screen will pop up on the screen. The screen plays an animation of a cartoon doll jumping on the shoulder of a piano, and then the registration screen pops up. After successful registration, click to start the game.

After entering the game, the background music is Bach's "Minuet", which is also the song of the game tutorial.

The simple and lively melody quickly makes people immersed in it involuntarily.

The gameplay of the game is very simple. Seven notes correspond to seven buttons. The button modes include short press and long press. The initial buttons are QWER and JKL, which can be set by yourself. The difficulty of the game is divided into 1 to 10 levels and master level according to the difficulty of the song. You can get a virtual piano level title with each level.

As a small game, a puzzle music game, it should be very popular among young people.

You can officially start the game after going through the game tutorial.

Seeing that people in Internet cafes are enjoying the game very much, it proves that the new game Rhythm Master has been tested very smoothly. This game is more interesting than Happy Elimination, but its popularity will definitely not exceed Happy Elimination because it is relatively difficult. Happy Elimination can be quickly mastered by everyone, young and old, male or female, while Rhythm Master tests hand speed a bit.

The game testing was handed over to the network administrator. Zhou Jing went to his uncle's pancake shop to take a look and went home. He called Gu Jia to ask if she needed to buy anything. Gu Jia thought about it and asked for a pack of wet wipes. Zhou Jing bought the things and went home.

Wu Suqin has already packed her things to take back to the countryside.

It was inconvenient to wear a skirt when returning to the countryside, so Gu Jia changed her clothes, wearing a short-sleeved top and jeans. She turned around in front of Zhou Jing and asked if the short-sleeved top and jeans matched.

"can."

Zhou Jing pinched Teacher Gu’s butt.

"Jing, do you want to change your clothes? We need to work tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."

Wu Suqin said to her son.

"No need to change."

Zhou Jing was originally dressed casually when he came back.

They set out for the countryside at three o'clock in the afternoon. Zhou Jing drove the car, and Gu Jia and Wu Suqin sat in the back seat. When they passed a fruit stall, Zhou Jing stopped the car and got out to buy two watermelons.

Seeing that her son had no change, Wu Suqin took out a few dozen yuan and gave it to the fruit stall owner.

“Is the watermelon ripe?”

Gu Jia patted the watermelon and said.

"If you don't know, bring it here."

The boss patted his chest and said.

"Three times the pay for a greenhorn."

Zhou Jing put the watermelon in the trunk of the car and used a suitcase to block it to prevent it from rolling around.

Most of the trunk of the car was empty, so Zhou Jing called his hometown to ask if he needed to buy anything. His second uncle's family asked him to bring two boxes of beer, so Zhou Jing went to the store and bought three boxes, and brought one box to his grandfather's family.

"The road to your grandmother's village was finally paved this year."

Wu Suqin said while holding Gu Jia's arm.

"It is thanks to Teacher Gu that the road in my grandmother's village can be hardened this year. Otherwise, who knows when it will be paved with cement or asphalt?"

Zhou Jing thought that he wouldn't have to take the bumpy ride all the way to his grandmother's house in the future.

"No wonder, it's made of cement and paved quite wide, wider than the road in your grandfather's village."

Wu Suqin then realized that it was her son's father-in-law who had made the call. It was easier to get things done with a backdoor, and the road hardening project that had been delayed for years was completed with just one word from her son's father-in-law.

"This apricot is the one that mom posted in the photo a few days ago, right?"

Gu Jia pointed at the big apricot tree at the fruit stall.

"Yes, your grandfather has some, and they just happened to be ripe these days."

After buying the things, Wu Suqin helped her daughter-in-law into the car.

Gu Jia was in the car. Zhou Jing drove very steadily, stepped on the accelerator lightly to start and slowly accelerated. When they arrived at the countryside of his hometown, Zhou Jing stopped the car at the bottom of the slope of his grandfather's house and asked Gu Jia and her mother to get off and find a place to park. The car was parked in the open space at the dam mouth. Gu Jia and Wu Suqin were waiting for Zhou Jing on the slope. They brought a lot of things, so Zhou Jing took more and Gu Jia didn't need to take them.

"Do you have any impression of the second uncle? He's the thin one with a long face."

The second uncle's house and Zhou Jing's grandfather's house are on the same street. At this moment, the mourning hall and wreaths in the second uncle's yard can be seen from afar.

"Yes, he looked healthy during the Chinese New Year. How come he is gone just like that?"

"He had a heart attack. He was sleeping at night and there was no time for emergency treatment."

Wu Suqin said.

"Living in the countryside, medical care is a problem. Some diseases that could have been avoided can become very serious if emergency rescue is not timely or if people do not know how to use them, especially for the elderly. The most common disease is cerebral palsy caused by high blood pressure."

There was someone behind him. Zhou Jing looked back and saw that the other person was in mourning. He should be a relative of the second uncle.

"Suqin is back, is this your son?"

"My son Zhou Jing, this is my daughter-in-law, and this is your second aunt."

Wu Suqin introduced it with some pride.

"Second aunt."

Zhou Jing and Gu Jia said politely.

"The last time I saw Zhou Jing was ten years ago. Now that your family has settled the issue, Suqin can enjoy her life in advance."

This second aunt lived far away from her parents' home and seldom came back. When she came back, she heard others say that Zhou Jing was doing very well and was the best in the village, and she was very envious.

"It's still early!"

It is not the time for Wu Suqin to enjoy her life yet. There are three elderly people in her family, and it is not her and Zhou Guozhong's turn to enjoy a peaceful life.

After exchanging greetings, Zhou Jing took Gu Jia to the street and went back to grandma's house first. Grandpa and dad were helping out at the second uncle's house, so grandma was the only one at home.

"It's very hot outside, go and rest on the kang."

Knowing that her grandson and his wife were coming back, the old lady prepared food in advance. She made cold noodles in the morning, picked large apricots, washed them and put them on the table, handed two apricots to Gu Jia and Zhou Jing, and took the chopping board to cut the cold noodles.

"Grandma, you've worked hard. Let me do the cutting."

Gu Jia helped get the chopping board immediately.

"I'll come, grandma, you can take a break too. It's so hot, what can my grandpa do over there?"

Zhou Jing washed his hands and took the kitchen knife from the old lady.

"I just rode a tricycle to deliver food to the mountain. Be careful with your hands."

The old lady took two bowls and said.

Gu Jia smelled the cold noodle sauce and said, "It smells so good. Why don't the ones I bought smell as good?"

"The chili peppers, sesame seeds, and Sichuan peppercorns we eat at home are all grown by my grandmother. Most vegetables are also grown. Doesn't this cilantro taste more authentic than the ones you buy?"

Zhou Jing handed the bowl to Gu Jiadao.

"It has a light fragrance. It's the first time I've eaten such delicious cold noodles."

After Gu Jia mixed the mixture and took a bite, she felt that the cold noodles she had eaten in the store before were simply incomparable.

"This kind of taste can only be made in the countryside. Learning the craft may not be possible in the city."

Zhou Jing turned on the TV and sat next to Gu Jia.

“This is life.”

After coming to the countryside, Gu Jia's appetite naturally improved.

Wu Suqin came back and took out two white coats and a hat made of white gauze from the cupboard and gave them to Zhou Jing, saying, "Jia Jia, just wear the white coat. You don't have to kowtow or kneel when you burn paper."

Gu Jia nodded. She was pregnant and had no intention of kneeling.

After eating cold noodles, Zhou Jing and Gu Jia went to the vegetable garden in the yard. The yard was divided into two parts, one side was for growing vegetables and the other side was for raising chickens. The young chickens in the chicken coop were chirping.
