"You're an interesting kid too. I told you I won't miss you, why don't you still trust me? Look, I don't have any pockets, how can I hold hundreds of dollars? Don't worry, I don't

I will lie to you, and I won’t take your eggs away without paying you.”

"Okay then..." Still reluctant and worried.

However, after Fatty Wang laughed angrily, he was not very annoyed, but found it very interesting. This child's cautious attitude was like a businessman.

If you have no taboos about anything, you will be deceived sooner or later, and you will not be able to achieve great things.

Fatty Wang brought Zhao Peng to his stall. Zhao Peng discovered that his stall was indeed very small at this time. There was only a pot for frying fried dough sticks and twists, and next to it was a small bed for making loose noodles.

Near their stall, there were two small square tables with several benches around them.

There is a salt, vinegar, oil and spicy food set on the square table.

Fatty Wang's wife is a very tough fat woman who speaks loudly and is very aggressive. Zhao Peng was quite afraid of her in his previous life and thought she was a bit like those man-eating monsters in movies.

But now it seems that she is okay, she is just an ordinary rural woman with no education, but she is not bad at heart and is completely devoted to her husband.

"Mom, give me 250 yuan."

"Okay, the eggs you mentioned belong to this baby. Let me see... they are really quite big. What do the chickens in your family eat? How do they lay such big eggs? Our family..."

"You're still verbose. Now count the money for me and let me go back. He's from Qingcheng."

Fatty Wang said impatiently.

"Qingcheng, that's a bit far. Come here, I'll give you some money."

Zhao Peng took the money with a smile and secretly touched the anti-counterfeiting mark with his hand. There were so many counterfeit bills at this time. In his previous life, Zhao Peng received countless fake 100 coins while selling eggs.

Fortunately, it's all true.

His gesture of touching money was also noticed by Fatty Wang, who admired him even more.

"Then Uncle Wang, I will go back first."

"How do you know my surname is Wang?" Fatty Wang asked curiously.

Bad food!

This one was exposed inadvertently. Zhao Pengqiang hesitated: "Uncle Wang, you said that, have you forgotten?"

"Have you ever said that? Maybe. By the way, will you come to our Lin County on the weekend next week as well?"

Zhao Peng pondered, shook his head and said: "It depends on the situation, not necessarily. If the eggs are sold out in the town above, I will not come to the county. After all, it is far from home."

"I understand, I understand." Fatty Wang hesitated and said nothing more.

He originally wanted to ask Zhao Peng if the eggs could be supplied on time next week, but he didn't know how his sales would be this time. After all, he had just started making tea eggs.

If you don't do it well and buy the eggs at a high price, it will be difficult to sell them, and you will lose money.

Zhao Peng didn't know Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, so he started walking back on his bike.

The journey is more than thirty miles and has to go uphill, so it will take some time.

When he got home, there was only a little shadow left in the setting sun. He knocked on the door for a long time before his mother came over and opened the door, looking a little unhappy.

"Mom, why are you looking so sad again?"

"It's not your dad. He was hit by a tile again."

Zhao Peng thought that this day had finally come. He knew that his father had been hit in the corner of his eye, his spectacle lens was smashed, and his eye was swollen for half a month.

Although I didn't go to the construction site to work anymore after my previous life was over, I didn't start an egg business immediately. Instead, I picked fruits from a chess friend's house in the village and sold them. When the fruits were gone, I sold vegetables again.

But because I had no experience, I didn’t save much money after more than a year.

"It was hit again. Where was it hit?"

He couldn't show the fact that he knew his father would smash it, and he showed great concern.

Zhao Peng had considered whether to let his father escape the pain of being hit. He felt sorry for his father's pain, but it was a good opportunity to stop his father from working on the construction site.

With his father's stubborn character, he didn't want to listen to anyone unless he suffered a big loss. He just wanted to stay on his own and go all the way.

Of course, the premise is that his father's injuries were minor and not serious, otherwise he would not dare to stand by and watch.

His younger brother Zhao Yong had already gone to the school dormitory in advance. Zhao Peng entered his parents' house and saw his father lying on the kang with his eyes bandaged.

When he heard Zhao Peng come in, his father didn't open his eyes. He still leaned on the kang and didn't say anything.

Zhao Peng helped his father pour a glass of water and put it on the bricks at the end of the kang. He jumped up and sat on the edge of the kang, staying silent with his father.

"Dad, don't be anxious. Things on the construction site are too dangerous, so we won't do it. We can do other things and there are many ways to make money."

Father still didn't speak.

"Dad, have you ever considered starting a small business?"

Father still didn't speak.

Zhao Peng felt funny in his heart. He was used to seeing his father like this. If he was angry or ignored people, even if you said 800 words to him, he might not be able to reply even one word.

He is like a little girl, sometimes very arrogant.

"Dad, last time I told you that I wanted to do a small business to make some money, I wasn't bragging. I'm really already doing it, and the profit is pretty good. If you are interested, then our family can do it together.

I will not fall behind in my studies, but I am now over sixteen years old, and I can’t bear to see you working so hard all the time. I want to officially take on the responsibility of the family."

My father still leaned against me silently, like a stone withered.

"Dad, don't be in a hurry. Just rest at home. Don't worry about Uncle Guangquan's 1,000 yuan. I will definitely return it to him then. And not only will I return it to him, I will spend half a year to pay off all the family's debts, so that

You are completely unburdened."

My father's hand finally moved, probably because his nose was itchy, so he scratched it.

"Anyway, that's what I'm saying. You may think I'm bragging, so you can wait until I achieve something. You've worked so hard to raise me, and now it's time for me to make a difference. Okay, I'll go study, please be nice

rest."

After Zhao Peng finished speaking, he jumped off the kang and left the house.

Inside the room, Zhao Zhengyi opened his eyes, and his frowning brow slowly opened a little.

…

Monday and Tuesday are another two days of mock exams.

Take the exam step by step.

According to school arrangements on Wednesday, Zhao Peng, Wu Qian, Zhang Yun, Li Wei and Liu Haoran from Class 10, and Zhang Xiaoqiu from Class 4 went to the city to participate in the next round of selection for the competition.

During the selection for the third grade of ten, the first place in Chinese was Li Wei from Class 10, the second place was Liu Haoran from Class 10, and the third place was Zhang Xiaoqiu from Class 4.

The first place in English is Zhao Peng, the second place is Li Wei, and the third place is also Liu Haoran.

The first place in mathematics is Wu Qian, the second place is Zhang Yun, and the third place is Zhao Peng.

Therefore, it seems that there are nine places, but in fact there are only six people.

Among them, there are three from Class 9, two from Class 10, and Zhang Xiaoqiu from Class 4, who is the only one.

These people are all regulars in the top twenty or even top ten in the whole level, and Zhao Peng basically knows them all.

He was more familiar with Li Wei and Liu Haoran. Zhang Xiaoqiu just heard about them often and knew that her Chinese scores were very good and her articles were beautifully written.

But not familiar with it.

The six contestants had previously been instructed to bring a change of clothes and they would stay in the city for one night.

Gather at the grade office on Wednesday and the school will arrange a bus to send you there.

Because we were going to the city, everyone had better dress up a little and wear as good a clothes as possible.

Except Zhang Xiaoqiu.

She was still wearing a school uniform that had been washed white and looked a little small. She was probably the uniform that was customized for the first grade of junior high school.

Wu Qian's family is in average condition, but she also wears new clothes. She is a quiet girl, small, thin, dark, with a good temper and very polite to others. Anyone in the class who asks her for advice will explain it carefully.

There is no arrogance like a top student.

He is a typical student who is a god of learning.

Zhang Yun's mother opened a clothing store in the town, so she wore beautiful clothes on weekdays, but Zhao Peng didn't like this girl very much. To put it simply, she was a bit teasing.

As for Li Wei, he is a well-mannered young man. He is gentle and gentle in his treatment of others. He maintains the temperament of a top student. Every time he takes exams, he never ranks among the top three in his class.

Liu Haoran is the kind of person who relies on his good grades to keep his eyes on the top. For example, he keeps looking at Zhao Peng with unconvincing eyes, with provocation in his eyes.

As for Zhao Peng himself, he just bought new clothes last week, so he changed his outfit and wore new shoes. His hair was also specially trimmed at a barber shop in the town.

After being reformed, he is no longer a poor boy living in the countryside. With the gentle eyes of a middle-aged man, he is somewhat charming.

The superintendent leading the team has not arrived yet, and there are only a few classmates in the office.

Everyone was waiting quietly, but Liu Haoran suddenly said to Zhang Xiaoqiu: "Zhang Xiaoqiu, what's the matter with you? You went to the city to participate in the competition and you still wore a torn school uniform. You won't change into newer clothes. Wearing this makes our school lose face."

"

Zhang Xiaoqiu was standing silently in the corner, leaning on the table, when he was suddenly shocked by Liu Haoran's words. His face turned red and he said timidly: "I...I..."

"It's fine if you go alone, but this time you are representing our school. Look, you are still wearing the school uniform. There are students from various counties participating in the competition. People who don't know think that our Yucai Middle School is all people like you.
