Chapter 567: Counterattack! loser! (41)
As the mid-term exam approaches, it’s time to pick radishes, cabbage, and cauliflower at Kaixin Farm.
After discussing with the class teacher, Xu Yin temporarily changed the last self-study class this Friday into a labor class, and took everyone to the fields to inspect the planting results of the past two months.
The joy of the harvest filled everyone’s faces.
We took a lot of photos, including group photos, individual photos, group photos of best friends, and close-ups of radishes, cabbage, and cauliflower.
There happened to be two children in the class who were talented in photography, and Xu Yin picked them out to serve as the class's official photographers.
"You two have a good time taking photos. After you finish, pick a few photos that you are satisfied with and send them to me. I will write a newsletter and send it to the Yangcheng Education Column to see if you can be hired."
The two children were flattered:
"Sister Yin, can we do it? I haven't studied it seriously, I just like it. Then when I was in junior high school, I participated in two primary and secondary school photography competitions, and won one third place and one second place."
“Me too, nothing else stands out.”
Xu Yin said: "It doesn't matter, just give it a try. Besides, the fact that you were ranked third and then second, shows that your photography skills are improving, and you might be able to get first class this year."
The two children were very happy to be praised. Next, they devoted themselves to the shooting, served the class wholeheartedly, and captured the lively harvest scene on their cameras.
“Hey, someone help me! My radish is so heavy! I can’t pull it out!” The petite girl squatted in the radish field and dragged the radish leaves for a long time, but she couldn’t pull the radish up.
A boy rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward to help: "I'll do it, I'll do it."
In the end, he couldn't pull it out either.
“Here comes another person to help!”
“Hahaha! Yang Tao, the radish is not pulled out with brute force. Sister Yin just taught me, you have to turn it like this a few times, look! Isn’t it easy to pull it out?”
Yang Tao scratched his head: "I thought we were going to sing the song "Pull the Carrot". A group of people can't pull out a carrot."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The harvest fields are filled with laughter and laughter.
Xu Tianyi was planting potatoes. Before they could be harvested, he discussed with his close friends: "You will give me some radishes. I will take them home and let my mother make radish soup. Next time, the potatoes in my field will be ripe." , give you some too."
Just a few radishes, who would disagree?
So the students whose crops in the fields were not yet ripe helped other students pick them together, and were eventually given the output of several fields as reward.
So much so that when school was over, the students in the first-year high school entrance examination class each had a bag of juicy organic vegetables in their hands, and the scene was quite spectacular.
The principal and the head teacher, Teacher Cai, were fortunate enough to receive a vegetable set meal from the whole class: six radishes, six Chinese cabbages, and six cauliflowers, making up 666.
Other teachers also have it. Some have one cabbage, two cauliflowers and three radishes, some have one radish, two cauliflowers and three Chinese cabbages... In short, the combination is also an auspicious number 6.
Teachers from other classes were extremely envious when they saw it: "Teacher Cai, you can't finish all these dishes, right?"
Some teachers also muttered: "Is that the school's biology corner? Why did it become your class's private area?"
Teacher Cai wanted to give him a piece of cauliflower: "This is an agreement between the principal and our classmate Xu Yin. If you are not convinced, just go to the principal to reason!" After saying that, he turned around and walked away, but the cauliflower was still there. Why not send it to the doorman?
other side:"…"
Hey! Didn't I just mention it by the way? No more cauliflower for me?
mean!
Over there, the students who brought vegetables home became the protagonist of the family tonight. They usually played mixed doubles, but tonight they were jointly praised.
At the end of the day, parents also shared photos of the dinner that day in the group.
"The radish grown by my son is really delicious, juicy, crispy and sweet. Eating it raw is like eating fruit. I mixed shredded jellyfish with radish and made pork ribs and radish soup. My son who usually doesn't like to eat vegetables, I ate two big bowls of rice with these two dishes. His father didn’t touch the roast duck he brought back on the way from work, but he said it wasn’t as delicious as the radish... (laughing and crying)!”
“The Chinese cabbage grown by my daughter is also very delicious. Just one dish of vinegar cabbage made our family of three grab the plates. (I can’t laugh or cry)!”
“Our family grows cauliflower, and we happened to have some pork belly at home, so I made a dry-pot cauliflower. The cauliflower was so delicious! With just this one dish, the four of us finished all the rice in the rice cooker!”
“Hahahaha...the same (laughing)!”
Xu Tianyi’s mother looked at the group of parents with an aunt’s smile on her face, and took Xu’s father downstairs for a walk.
“Damn it, stop playing games! The midterm exam is coming soon, so hurry up.”
“I’m not playing games, I’m chatting with my classmates, and I’ll do my homework after chatting for another ten minutes. Everyone is saying that the vegetables I grow are delicious.”
Xu’s mother and Xu’s father looked at each other, opened the door and walked out before they couldn’t help laughing:
“I’ve really grown up!”
“I think it’s because the atmosphere in their class is so good that even my son doesn’t like playing games and studying instead.”
While talking, the elevator stopped on the eighth floor, and what happened to be Cheng Dandan and her mother, a girl in the same class of Xu Tianyi Junior High School, came in.
"Mom Tianyi, are you happy to see you smiling happily? By the way, the midterm exam is coming soon. Have you mentioned this when you Tianyi came back? I heard from Dandan that the midterm exam will be a joint examination of 25 vocational schools. When the overall ranking came out, I was worried to death. If there were thousands of people in the exam, I felt like there was no hope at all in the college entrance examination!"
Xu's mother was surprised and said: "The mid-term exam is about to take the joint entrance exam? I thought it was my school's exam. When God came back, I didn't say anything. I was just happy with the vegetables I grew."
“What vegetables do you grow yourself?”
"It's like this..." Xu's mother excitedly told Dandan's mother about her son's class setting up a collective small farm, "Oh, let me tell you, the planting is great! Real green and pure organic... yo, I I forgot to bring my phone with me. I wanted to show you the photos. They are really good! It makes me want to get my own land to grow vegetables..."
When the elevator reached the first floor, Dandan’s mother was about to take her daughter to the teacher’s house to make up lessons. Xu’s mother waved goodbye and said, “I’ll send you a photo when I get back from the walk.”
…”
When Xu's mother walked away, Dandan's mother raised the corner of her mouth with disdain: "I thought she was so happy because her son got first in the class in the monthly exam. He spent half the day growing vegetables at school... Dongming is a broken pot. Are they broken? Good college entrance examination students are dragged into farming? No wonder the admission score is getting lower year by year, tsk!"
After complaining, he reminded his daughter: "You have to work hard, but you can't be as careless as you were in junior high school. Don't imitate Xu Tianyi. His family is rich, and it doesn't matter if he is a mess in studies. From now on, just take over his father's class." . No matter how bad his family has several houses, the monthly rent is more than what your father and I earn from working. Firstly, our family has no company, and secondly, we don’t have any more houses for you to inherit. You can only rely on your own efforts. If you don’t work hard, you will get better. I can’t go to college. Look at the people sweeping the streets and the people carrying bricks at the construction site. They are all uneducated. Are you willing to do that kind of work?"
Her daughter lowered her head and said nothing.
