Sure enough, Zhang Laoliu immediately beamed when he saw the smoke.

I am also very "pleased" that Zhao Peng is so sensible.

Zhao Peng knew that his uncle could only be a stepping stone. Although he had a good relationship with Zhang Laoliu, the most powerful eldest son of the Zhang family, it had nothing to do with Zhang Laoliu.

People in this kind of mixed society mainly focus on immediate interests.

"What do you call me, little brother? You are so polite." He put the cigarette into the drawer below as if he was calm, with enthusiasm in his voice.

"Zhao Peng, studying at Yucai Middle School."

"It's a good school for nurturing talents. My little brother is young and promising. Unlike someone like you, Sixth Brother, who suffers the disadvantage of being uneducated and can only make some efforts to make a living. It's miserable!"

Zhao Peng smiled and said nothing.

This kind of expressive gesture is very useful for a boy of his age, but he is not an ordinary boy, just an old shoehorn.

He refused to give in, so he quietly watched Zhang Laoliu's performance.

"Little brother, are you here today to ask your sixth brother to run errands for something?"

Zhao Peng remained calm, and Zhang Laoliu was the first to make an effort.

"It's not a big deal. It's like this. Seeing that the high school entrance examination is about to take place, it takes too much energy to run home every night. I want to rent a house on this street. I think Liu Ge is familiar with people in the town, so he must know where it is.

The house is quiet, spacious and clean, suitable for studying, so I came to ask Sixth Brother."

"You are looking for a house, then you have found the right place with Brother Six. If nothing else, there are many places in this town that your Brother Six doesn't know about. Tell me, you probably want to

What type is it, how big is it, and how much rent can it pay each month?”

"As for the area, sixty-seven square meters will be enough. It needs to be quiet and no one will disturb you. As for the rent, Brother Six, just help me check it."

Zhang Laoliu rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, I'll help you go down and ask. You can come to me at this time tomorrow."

Zhao Peng nodded, stood up and said, "Then please worry about Brother Six. I have classes in the evening, so I won't bother Brother Six more."

After saying that, he turned around and walked out. Zhang Laoliu stood up enthusiastically and followed behind to send Zhao Peng out the door.

After Zhao Peng turned the corner and disappeared without a trace, someone came out of the side room, stood next to Zhang Laoliu, and asked in a rough voice: "Lao Liu, where is this kid from?"

This man looks a bit like Zhang Laoliu, but he is a lot bigger than Zhang Laoliu. His face is full of flesh, his eyebrows are thick and black, and his lips are fat. He looks a bit fierce.

"Liu Datou's nephew asked me to look after a house for him."

"I asked you to look at a house. When did you start doing this kind of thing?"

Zhang Laoliu smiled and said, "Fourth brother, you don't understand. In my opinion, this kid is an adulterer. Why did he come to me specifically to look at the house? He came here at two o'clock. First, he is Liu Datou's nephew.

, told me not to cause trouble for him when things happen in the future. Second, if something goes wrong in the future, let me help him out.

He gave me cigarettes and asked me to look at the house, which was polite to me, meaning that as long as we get along well, life will be easy for everyone."

"Is he that evil as you say? I think he is just a kid. Look at the clothes he is wearing, he doesn't look like a rich man."

"Fourth brother, the eldest brother has repeatedly said that when we look at people, we should not just look at their appearance. You only see that his clothes are not very good, but if you think about it, he is like a red pagoda mountain, and renting a house is sixty-seven, then everyone

It doesn’t cost thirty or forty yuan a month. With this money, he can definitely wear new clothes.”

The rough guy Zhang Laosi thought it made sense when he heard it.

"Since he is so polite, we can't let others look down on us. Moreover, he is Liu Datou's nephew, so Liu Datou has some background, so let's give him face."

"I can't beat you." Zhang Laosi said and entered the next room again.

Zhang Laoliu said to himself with a smile: "It's interesting, this kid!"

…

After dinner and cleaning up, Zhao Peng went back to the room to review.

Tomorrow I will take exams on political physics and chemistry.

In addition to chemistry, the other two subjects must be reviewed, especially physics, which requires careful review.

He turned out the books on politics and physics and put them on the table. He looked around and didn't know which subject to review. In the end, he chose politics using the scientific screening method of "pointing out troops and selecting generals".

After watching for less than half an hour, someone knocked on the door.

It's Hu Li here.

Because it was at home, Hu Li did not dress very formally, but wore a thin pear-faced jacket, white velvet trousers underneath, and a pair of white casual shoes.

Holding a stack of papers in his hand.

She opened the door curtain, walked directly in and sat on the edge of the Kang next to Zhao Peng's desk, her long and straight legs swinging in the air, casually and naturally, as if she was back at home.

"Eldest niece, what are you doing?"

Zhao Peng asked Hu Li casually while copying the key political knowledge points in his notebook.

The two of them were already very familiar with each other and had grown accustomed to each other's presence. When they were little, Hu Li came to play and often slept at Zhao Peng's house.

Well, it’s just like sleeping.

"Didn't you agree to help me review and forget about it in a day? Here." Hu Li took out a handful of melon seeds from her pocket and handed them to Zhao Peng.

Zhao Peng took the melon seeds with a political book, poured them on the table, stuck out his tongue, rolled a few and knocked them.

"Do you really want to study?"

"Didn't I tell you? Why don't you trust people? Why, you don't want to teach me? If you don't want to, I will tell my grandma..."

"Miss, please stop it. I will teach you."

Hu Li chuckled and handed all the papers to Zhao Peng: "This is the paper you asked for. The papers from the first three times are all there. You just failed every time."

Zhao Peng took the paper, flipped through it quickly, and found that it was really bad, and very bad.

Her highest scores were in Chinese and Politics, both of which she barely scored over 70 points, English, which was over 50 points, Mathematics, Physics, and both only scored over 40 points, and Chemistry, which was even more outrageous, only scored over 20 points.

Zhao Peng was sweating coldly when he saw it. This was really what he said. He threw the paper on the ground and stepped on a few answers with his feet. He was afraid that they would all score higher than this.

Zhao Peng never thought that Hu Li's study had deteriorated to this point.

Although he liked Hu Li in his previous life, because her family was rich, Hu Li always played with the wealthy students in the class. Although she had been secretly helping Zhao Peng, Zhao Peng still felt inferior and basically did not interact with Hu Li.

Li had too many exchanges.

For a long time, I didn’t care about her studies. I only knew that she was very bad at studies.

Speaking of which, besides not being Zhao Peng's girlfriend, Hu Li really has nothing to say about Zhao Peng.

When she was in elementary school, Zhao Peng's family couldn't afford anything, not even dictionaries, writing brushes, ink, abacus, etc., so Hu Li took abacus class to memorize two abacuses, and used ink with Zhao Peng. The writing brush was also a must-have.

Buying it means double.

I also gave Zhao Peng a very good dictionary.

As for the watercolors, rice paper, and pencils used for painting, she and Zhao Peng all use them separately.

I also often buy bubble gum and instant noodles for Zhao Peng...

When people are poor, if there is someone who treats them well, it is easy to fall into it. In the eyes of Zhao Peng in his previous life, Hu Li was like an angel. He believed that besides his mother, Hu Li was the best person in the world to him.

woman.

So when Hu Li gradually made new friends and even a boyfriend in junior high school, Zhao Peng still felt a little bit strange about Hu Li and felt that he was abandoned and abandoned in some way.

Then subconsciously, she began to distance herself from Hu Li.

But Hu Li was still very kind to him. For example, when there was a power outage during evening self-study and Zhao Peng had no money to buy candles, Hu Li would sneak in and give Zhao Peng 40 cents.

A candle costs forty cents.

Zhao Peng's bicycle was very old and often ran out of gas. Hu Li would take him home with her if she went home. Sitting in the back seat of Hu Li's car was his happiest and happiest time.

He didn't know if Hu Li liked him, but he felt that he liked Hu Li, otherwise he wouldn't have thought it was a dream and kissed her when he was first reborn.

"The grades...are not very good?" Hu Li jumped off the kang and came to Zhao Peng's side to also look at the papers.

She had just washed her hair when she came here, and the fragrance of shampoo was still on her hair. When she lowered her head, her hair fell on Zhao Peng's neck, making it itch.
