There was nothing in the room, only a large wardrobe and a standing table. Apart from these two, there was nothing else.
A very old-looking woman was lying on the kang. She had more white hair than black hair. Her pale face told Zhao Qiang that this woman was sick and very serious.
"Xiao Zhi, why did you come back so early? Did you cause trouble to your Uncle Liu again?" The woman's voice was not that old, she could be considered a middle-aged woman at most. Obviously, it was years of wind and rain that caused this.
She looks so old.
"No, Mom, why do you miss me so much?" Zhang Pengzhi smiled naively, and then began to tidy up the bedding of the woman lying on the kang, "Mom, have you gone to the ground again? I can tell by looking at your quilt. I'll tell you.
Don't move, why don't you listen?"
"What are you talking about, you little bastard? You got up late in the morning and ran out without clearing the table after breakfast. Can you do it if I don't clear it?"
"Hehe..." Zhang Pengzhi scratched his head and giggled twice. He suddenly remembered that Zhao Qiang was still standing at the door, and quickly welcomed Zhao Qiang in. "Oh, Teacher Zhao, why are you standing at the door? Come in and sit down!"
"Ahem... Xiaozhi, are there guests?"
Zhao Qiang walked in with a smile and smiled at the middle-aged woman lying on the bed: "Haha, hello, I am Xiaozhi's class teacher, and my name is Zhao Qiang."
"Oh, it turns out that Xiaozhi's teacher is here. Come on, come and sit down. Sit on the kang." The middle-aged woman said and was about to sit up.
Zhao Qiang said quickly: "You don't need to get up, you are a patient! Xiaozhi is right, you can just lie down. I am Xiaozhi's class teacher, and I am half a relative, not an outsider."
"Haha, it's okay...cough, it's just a common cold." Mother Zhang insisted and sat up. As soon as she sat up, Mother Zhang discovered that there was a group of children standing at the door who looked about the same age as Zhang Pengzhi. She said doubtfully: "These people
yes……"
"Mom, these people are all my classmates."
"Oh, this is amazing. When have so many people come to our house?" Mother Zhang said in surprise. "Xiao Zhi, hurry up, go to your Aunt Sun's house next door and bring back some stools."
"Okay!" Zhang Pengzhi smiled and ran out.
"Hehe, come on, come in. Hey, the room is small, so don't mind, everyone!"
Xu Yitian didn't react, but Jin Boyou on the side did. He walked in, smiled widely and said: "Hey, Auntie, why are we so polite? We are all Xiaozhi's good friends, and they have always been academically good.
I'm busy and don't have time to come here, otherwise I would have come long ago."
At this time Xu Yitian also came to his senses and walked in with a smile, "Haha, yes, Auntie, you don't need to worry about us, you can just chat with Teacher Zhao."
They are all truly rich second generation. They may be very squeamish, but they don't have the feeling of being superior to others. Looking at the appearance of Zhang Pengzhi's family, they feel a little sour in their noses. They feel that they who bullied Zhang Pengzhi in the past are a bit too much.
The four girls' eyes were even redder, and they looked like they were about to cry.
They have never imagined such a poor life. The windows are wrapped with plastic sheets and the ceiling is papered with newspapers. It is difficult to imagine that this is the city.
Zhao Qiang was very satisfied with their reaction, no matter what their future path would be. But based on their performance today, they couldn't be compared to idiots like Li Qiming and Yao Jiaxin.
Today's society is very realistic. If you have money, you are an uncle; if you don't have money, you are a grandson.
It is not easy for them to put aside worldly concepts at such a young age.
Maybe...it's just because they are too young that they are left behind!
"Come on, you guys. Come, some of you, come and sit on the kang with me. The place is small and you are still standing on the ground. Is it crowded?" Zhao Qiang took off his shoes with a smile, got on the kang and faced Zhang's mother face to face.
After sitting down, Xu Yitian and others looked at each other and rushed to the kang.
Such an action made Mother Zhang burst into tears.
Looking at their clothes, you can tell that they are an ordinary family. Not only is this place small, but it also doesn't look that clean. The fact that they can act like this shows that they don't dislike themselves at all.
"By the way, I'll get you some water to drink! There's no tea, just some boiled water, haha..."
"Mother Zhang, don't be busy." Zhao Qiang said with a smile. "We will go back soon."
After a while, Zhang Pengzhi came back carrying a few stools.
With a group of students and Zhao Qiang, the kang and the floor were all full.
Zhao Qiang smiled at Zhang's mother and said, "Mother Zhang, actually I came here today to talk to you about Zhang Pengzhi's problem."
"What's wrong with Xiaozhi? Teacher Zhao, what mistake did Xiaozhi make? Please be patient with him!" Mother Zhang said quickly.
"Haha, no. Xiaozhi's performance in school is very good, and his academic performance is also among the best in the class, so he deserves a reward." Zhao Qiang said with a smile. "But... Xiaozhi didn't go to school in the past week, so
I just wanted to come and understand the situation."
"Hey, Teacher Zhao, don't blame Xiaozhi. I know that he didn't go to school." Mother Zhang sighed and said. "Xiaozhi's father passed away early, and we are the only orphans and widowers in the family.
Even our livelihood is in question. If Xiaozhi's father's friends hadn't helped us, mother and son, I'm afraid we would be sleeping on the streets now. As you can see, I am still sick. If Xiaozhi didn't work, where would we get the money?
eat!"
Zhao Qiang sighed inwardly, this was indeed a bit embarrassing, "Xiao Zhi is now a sophomore in high school, and the college entrance examination is about to take place. If we don't work harder, I'm afraid it won't work."
Zhang's mother raised her head and glanced at Zhao Qiang, then at Zhang Pengzhi, shaking her head and saying nothing.
She sighed arrogantly, feeling a little at a loss. Then she said, "Mother Zhang, what's wrong with you?"
"Haha, ** is sick, it's okay." Zhang's mother chuckled.
Is this okay?
It's okay, why don't you go out to work?
Looking at his face and coughing twice from time to time, you can tell that it's not okay, but something serious is about to happen!
Zhao Qiang shook his head helplessly, "Zhang Pengzhi, what disease does your mother have? Tell me the truth!"
"My mother has it, so tell the truth, she just has a fever." Zhang Pengzhi muttered in a low voice.
"..."
fever?
Zhao Qiang's mind was racing and he narrowed his eyes, "Mother Zhang, do you always have a fever?"
"Well, I don't know what's going on. It's happened several times in the past year."
"Xu Yitian, you and Gao Weihong go out and call a car. Let's go to the hospital!" Zhao Qiang shouted.
Xu Yitian and Gao Weihong didn't say anything, put on their shoes and walked out...
