After expelling Teacher Qian in disguise, Xue Yuantong and Jiang Ning continued to eat.
The tofu curd contains soybeans, which makes it crunchy. Xue Yuantong eats it with two spoons.
The evening breeze blew again and I looked at the Huishui River in the distance. The wind seemed to be carrying moisture, making it cool.
Teacher Qian found a small table, wiped it again and again with a rag, and then sat down.
Soon, the aunt served the tofu puffs. Teacher Qian stared at the bowl of tofu puffs and frowned tightly.
"Sister, come here." Teacher Qian shouted.
His shouting was so loud that it attracted the attention of passers-by around him. The aunt selling tofu porridge had to put down what she was doing and run over quickly.
Teacher Qian crossed his legs, shook his fan, and said in the tone of a teacher he has taught for many years: "Do you remember what I told you?"
Auntie: "You ordered a bowl of tofu curd."
"What else?" Teacher Qian asked.
Auntie looked confused, she really didn't remember.
Teacher Qian used his fan to make tofu patties and said, "If you think about it carefully, how did I explain to you?"
The aunt looked at the tofu noodle and thought about it for a while. Other customers became impatient and began to rush.
In desperation, the aunt finally noticed a touch of green in the bowl.
The aunt suddenly realized: "I'm sorry, I forgot that you don't want coriander. I'll give you a bowl now."
She quickly made a new one.
Xue Yuantong witnessed the whole process and was surprised: "Teacher Qian could tell the boss directly what was wrong, but she was left to find out what was wrong."
Jiang Ning said: "This is called heuristic teaching. First let the boss realize what is wrong, and then let her correct it."
"Teaching..." Xue Yuantong thought for two seconds and then said, "This is not a school, and the boss is not his student."
Jiang Ning: "That's why he has a lot of things to do."
…
After dinner, Jiang Ning paid the bill.
Xue Yuantong said: "It's not expensive. It's only 12 yuan in total, which is an average of 6 yuan."
Jiang Ning said: "I only ate one Roujiamo. On average, I only ate 4.5 yuan."
Xue Yuantong was unreasonable: "We are together and should be equal."
"Okay." Jiang Ning reluctantly agreed.
Xue Yuantong followed him step by step and said happily: "Jiang Ning, you are so kind!"
The two of them strolled along the river dam. During this period, Jiang Ning received news that Shao Shuangshuang had taken photos of Nan City's mid-year party venue for him, and also paid some people to perform a show, making it quite a grand event.
"The lottery is ready, are you sure it's a single travel ticket?" Shao Shuangshuang asked.
"Yeah, sure."
After getting the approval, Shao Shuangshuang said: "Okay, I will arrange the draw tonight."
Xue Yuantong saw Jiang Ning playing with her mobile phone and called him: "My mother won't be back tonight."
Aunt Gu went to Nanshi to participate in an event, and her overnight accommodation was arranged by the company.
"Then you can stay up late," Jiang Ning said.
Xue Yuantong: "Yes, I will go to Chu Chu's house to play in the evening, will you come?"
"Not going."
"Tch, I'll go by myself." Xue Yuantong abandoned Jiang Ning.
…
The sky was completely dark. After Chu Chu came back, she didn't bother with dinner anymore, but cooked a bag of instant noodles.
The room was a bit stuffy, so Xue Chuchu took the bowl to the door to eat. Rural people are not so particular.
Xue Yuantong stood by and watched her eat.
Teacher Qian next door came back from a walk and smelled the smell of instant noodles. He shook his head and said in a hateful tone:
"Eat less instant noodles. They are nutritious. The more you eat, the thinner you become."
Xue Chuchu was very polite and replied with a smile: "Teacher Qian, you are right."
Teacher Qian feels that he has saved the flowers of the motherland.
On the other side, Dongdong went out eating instant noodles, and Teacher Qian showed his attitude of teaching and educating people again:
"Dongdong, eat less instant noodles. Look at how fat you are. If you eat any more, you'll turn into a ball!"
Xue Yuantong: "?"
Dongdong didn't even have Teacher Qian, so he treated him as nothing, which made Teacher Qian very embarrassed.
Dongdong ate the instant noodles quickly and continued to play with his wooden sword.
Earlier, he smashed Teacher Qian's ladder, picked out the best piece of bamboo, and cut the blank into a wooden sword.
Although Dongdong is a bear, he has strong hands-on skills. He used Uncle Zhang's sharp knife for cutting meat and the "chacha" wood-cutting sword.
While others were eating, he was still sharpening his sword; while others were chatting, he was still sharpening his sword.
Starlight does not care about travelers, and time pays off to those who are thoughtful.
From smashing the ladder to forging the sword, it took four hours!
Dongdong finally made a handsome wooden sword. He polished it carefully with sandpaper, removed all the wood thorns, and then wrapped a cloth strip around the handle.
Dongdong held the sword in one hand and stood under the illumination of the incandescent lamp at the door. He drew the sword, and the sword body seemed to flash with light, and even shot out a sword light!
It’s really cool!
Jiang Ning at the door maintained the spell and continued to add special effects to Dongdong's "sword".
Dongdong's eyes burst out with dazzling light, and he shouted:
"My peerless sword!"
"Ha! Sword!" Dongdong waved his sword, and the sky was filled with phantoms of bright swords.
He waved for a while, and the sword shadows overlapped all over the sky, and finally slowly returned to form, like a ghost.
Dongdong held the sword, and his excitement soared to the sky. For a child, making a sword with his own hands, what a sense of accomplishment is that?
Teacher Qian, who was eating pumpkin seeds, was shocked. He had never seen such a wonderful sword, and he immediately shouted:
"What a sword!"
"A sword matches a hero, Dongdong, I will carve words on your sword!" Teacher Qian said.
Dongdong agreed, but before that, in order to let the sword recognize its owner, he pricked his finger with a needle, and a drop of blood fell on the sword.
After the recognition ceremony was completed, Teacher Qian took out a pen and ink and wrote a line of poetry on the generous sword body:
'One sword gleams coldly across nineteen continents.'
When the ink was dry, Dongdong, carrying the peerless sword, strode to Jiang Ning's door.
He raised his sword and pointed it at Jiang Ning with a stern look in his eyes:
"Suffer death!"
Now he is the great swordsman on TV, killing people with one move!
Jiang Ning was happy and picked up his wooden sword.
Xue Yuantong and Chu Chu returned to the house, and he was the only one outside.
Dongdong has a dark face and is excited and thirsty for blood. He was ridiculed by Jiang Ning before, but now he can finally take revenge.
Today, his peerless sword will surely shock everyone!
Dongdong thought of the scene of killing everyone!
Without waiting for Jiang Ning to react, Dongdong attacked with his sword, completely unaware of the severity of his attack.
When the sword was swung, there was a faint flash of cold light!
Like a glowing sword!
Dongdong used more force. If this sword hit someone else, they might be injured.
Jiang Ning did not sit still and wait for death.
I saw him slowly taking the sword and gently whittling it, like peeling tofu, and broke Dongdong's sword in one go.
The scene was extremely silent.
In an instant, the cold light of Dongdong's sword body disappeared, and the originally dazzling sword lost all color in an instant and turned gray.
"Rang" half of the wooden sword fell.
Dongdong stayed in place, his eyes bulging, completely in disbelief.
Jiang Ning was disdainful: "What kind of broken sword?"
This sword cut Dongdong down from his peak state. Dongdong's high spirits, perseverance, and inner arrogance were all cut away by this sword.
Dongdong has never been so sad. He worked hard for so long and finally made a sword. He had high hopes for it, but it broke so easily.
Dongdong hugged the broken sword and cried heartbreakingly: "You must pay for my sword!"
Jiang Ning blocked his voice and replied via voice transmission: "If you don't pay, get out."
This voice was extremely intimidating, and Dongdong trembled in fright. He knew that Jiang Ning was not easy to mess with, and he had been kicked away before.
Knowing that he could not seek compensation from Jiang Ning, Dongdong grabbed the broken sword, found Teacher Qian next door, picked on the weak, and shouted:
"You pay for my sword!"
Teacher Qian: "???"
Dongdong's logic is clear: "You carved words on the sword and damaged my peerless sword!"
Teacher Qian was so angry that he almost had a brain attack. He jumped up and shouted:
"You were so slanderous that you were obviously knocked to pieces!"
Dongdong has a simple mind and accepts death: "It's all your fault that my sword broke!"
"Grandma!" Dongdong started to howl.
As the words were spoken, the figure of the fat old lady flashed out of the doorway in the distance. A few seconds later, the fat old lady howled: "My grandson!"
…
A fierce quarrel broke out at the door, and all the neighbors were alerted and went out to watch the excitement.
The whole incident was very complicated. Teacher Qian faced off against a fat old lady, a scholar met a soldier, and it was hard to explain why.
With the coordination of Uncle Tang, Uncle Zhang and others, Teacher Qian compensated Dongdong with a piece of fine wood to make a new sword for him.
Teacher Qian gritted his teeth and accepted, and returned home to look for wooden bars. He found that his ladder had been dismantled, and came back to argue with the fat old lady. The quarrel lasted until 10:30 in the evening before it completely stopped.
After Jiang Ning took a shower, she lay down on the sofa to rest.
Tonight, Tongtong went to Chu Chu and didn't play in his room. Jiang Ning was happy and peaceful.
Dong Qingfeng from the class group was furious. He posted three pictures in a row, late at night, all of them were grilled and greasy meat skewers:
"It is highly recommended to try Pengcheng's barbecue. Their barbecue is grilled for you until it is 7 degrees cooked. You then grill it yourself over charcoal fire and eat it yourself. It is an experience."
Meng Gui: "But I like fully automatic."
Cui Yu: "Me too."
Jiang Yanan asked seriously: "Can I bake it by myself, or what should I do if it's burnt?"
Dong Qingfeng said warmly: "I will bake it for you, but you are responsible for eating it."
Cui Yu: "I want to eat it too."
Meng Gui: "Me too."
Dong Qingfeng's mouth twitched, he wanted to strangle these two guys to death.
Lu Qiqi showed her knowledge and participated in the topic: "In addition to barbecue, Pengcheng also has a ground pot chicken. Have you tried it? It is the first ground pot chicken in the city."
Dong Qingfeng: "I tried it. It's really delicious. It's a little different from ours in Yuzhou. Their ground pot chicken has more sugary flavor."
The two chatted about eating, drinking and having fun in Pengcheng. Students from rural areas like Shan Kaiquan and Guo Kunnan had never been to a few cities and could not join the conversation at all.
Especially Guo Kunnan, who originally thought he would be able to thrive in the freshmen group and be surrounded by fellow juniors, but ended up being frequently targeted by the tough guys among the freshmen.
It made him exhausted physically and mentally, but Wang Longlong used his privileges and kicked a few people to get better.
Yang Sheng: "The barbecue recommendations are in Shandong Province, which is very different from the local ones."
When Dong Qingfeng saw Yang Sheng bubbling up, his mood changed. He hadn't seen Yang Sheng in recent days and he missed him very much.
He quickly replied: "The barbecue in Lu Province is very authentic. My next stop is going to Tai City. I just happen to be climbing Mount Tai and trying barbecue. Is anyone going to join me?"
Dong Qingfeng shouted in the group.
Lu Qiqi said: "It is said on the Internet that people must climb Mount Tai once in their lives."
Chen Qian: "Mount Taishan is the first of the Five Mountains and the place where ancient emperors enshrined themselves in Zen. It is worth climbing."
Chen Siyu wondered: "Mount Tai is obviously not the highest, so why is it the first of the five mountains?"
Huang Zhongfei: "Other famous mountains are mostly surrounded by mountainous areas, but Mount Tai is different. It is located in a plain. I used to drive by and Mount Tai rose from the ground on a large plain. It is unparalleled in its momentum."
Chen Qian: "When you stand at the top of the mountain, you can see all the mountains and small mountains. This is the reason why."
Cui Yu: "After all, isn't it just that the other nearby mountains are too short and set off Mount Tai?"
Huang Zhongfei: "It makes sense to think so."
"I climbed Mount Taishan last summer. If you plan to go, I can provide technical support." Huang Zhongfei said.
Yu Wen secretly made a decision.
Wang Yanan: "I'm a little yearning for it, but it's too far."
Dong Qingfeng: "It's not too far, the train takes more than 4 hours."
Lu Qiqi: "I heard that climbing Mount Tai is very tiring. It takes five or six hours to reach the top."
Huang Zhongfei: "It's really tiring. There is a section of mountain road called Shibapan. It's very steep. It's scary to look back."
Shan Kaiquan is full of confidence: "If you let me climb, I will rush up in one breath."
Dong Qingfeng couldn't stand his bragging and wanted to refute it, but thought about it, what if he won?
After giving up the idea of fighting, Dong Qingfeng let out a breath, thinking that his mood had matured a lot: "Come and climb the mountain together, it's lively when there are many people."
Shan Kaiquan thought about it carefully, and it seemed to be feasible. His grades had improved, his father had been promoted and his salary had been raised, and he had a lot more pocket money than before. If he discussed it carefully with his family, he might be able to get permission.
The group started chatting about the topic of Mount Tai, and everyone expressed their opinions.
More and more students joined in, and Shen Qing'e and Bai Yuxia also expressed their opinions.
…
Xue Chuchu's room.
Xue Yuantong held the phone and watched them chatting about Taishan.
Traveling, mountain climbing, these things are far away from her, like another world that can never be touched.
"Chuchu, do you like climbing mountains?"
Xue Chuchu stopped writing and turned around: "You will like it."
"Since you've never climbed before, why do you like it?" Xue Yuantong wondered.
Xue Chuchu thought for a while and smiled: "I saw people climbing mountains on my mobile phone."
She approached Tongtong and clicked on the Tieba favorites.
The post records a person climbing a mountain in heavy fog, from being excited at the beginning, to getting tired in the middle, to giving up several times, and finally gritting his teeth to reach the top.
When he reached the top of the mountain, the fog suddenly dispersed, the blue sky came over, and the sea of clouds, mountains and forests, and the beautiful scenery unfolded before him.
The photos posted by the poster are extremely beautiful, and they are scenery that you can’t usually see.
Mountaineering is in line with Xue Chuchu's philosophy. She is studying hard and improving her grades in order to one day see the scenery that she cannot see now.
Xue Yuantong stared at the beautiful scenery in a daze, exclaiming: "It's so beautiful."
Immediately, she sighed: "I don't have money to climb the mountain."
The monitor said to the class group that the tickets alone cost 125 yuan.
Xue Yuantong couldn't bear it.
‘It would be great if I won today’s scratch-off prize!’ she thought.
Then if she could collect some pocket money, she might be able to bring Jiang Ning with her.
Xue Yuantong remembered that Jiang Ning had never been to Mount Tai...
‘Well, Chu Chu hasn’t been there either, but Chu Chu wants to go to school.’ She looked for excuses to abandon Chu Chu.
