Chapter 2827 Good friends should be happy for each other
In the afternoon, Zhang Tan appeared outside the school on time to pick up Xiaobai and Xi'er home from school.
But after waiting and waiting, no one came out until Dudu ran out and told him that Xiaobai and the others were practicing raising the national flag on the playground and would be back later.
"Raise the flag?"
Zhang Tan was confused and was led into the school by Dudu. Sun Kang, the security captain guarding the door, smiled at Zhang Tan and said hello.
Zhang Tan also nodded to the other party and explained his intention.
Sun Kang said he knew and just invited him in.
As for Zhang Tan, who doesn't know that he is a famous figure in their school, and his daughter Xiaobai is even more popular.
Sun Kang is Liliu's enemy.
Zhang Tan saw Xiaobai and others on the playground. Xi'er was also here, as well as Teacher Wu Mei, and two other older primary school students.
In addition, there is a chubby voice, that of the principal Li Tao.
A group of people are practicing raising the national flag.
Dudu told Zhang Tan, Xiaobai, Liuliu, and Xiaomi that they had become the flag-raisers and would perform in front of the teachers and students of the school next Monday.
Zhang Tan's appearance did not attract the attention of the children, who were concentrating on learning to raise the national flag.
Only principal Li Tao and head teacher Wu Mei noticed Zhang Tan's appearance. Li Tao came over, stood next to Zhang Tan, chatted with him, and introduced the situation.
"Xiaobai, Xiaomi and Liuliu are all good children with excellent academic performance. After everyone's unanimous recommendation, we have invited them to the flag-raising ceremony next Monday. They are very attentive and are practicing hard..."
Everyone likes to hear nice words. Zhang Tan said it was very useful and it was Xiaobai who praised it.
However, when I heard that I had both good character and academic skills, I still couldn't help but feel a little weird. This "study" seemed rather reluctant.
Zhang Tan noticed that the positions of Xiaobai and the three of them were that Liuliu was in the middle, Xiaobai and Xiaomi each stood at the same position, and the division of labor was clear.
The one who raised the national flag was Liuliu, and the ones standing aside were Xiaobai and Xiaomi.
Liuliu smiled so brightly that she almost laughed out loud.
Xiaomi looked solemn.
Xiaobai looked grim and a little unhappy.
Dudu and Xi'er also stood aside to watch the ceremony, especially Dudu, who faced the rising national flag, his posture was straight, his head at the desk was raised, his eyes slowly moved up with the rising national flag, and he saluted with attention in front of the national flag.
When the national flag reaches its peak, the national anthem is not over yet.
An older primary school student on the side said: "Liuliu, you raised the flag too fast. The national flag has already reached the top before the national anthem ends. You have to go slower."
Xiaobai immediately said: "If you can't do it, I will do it for you."
Liuliuquan didn't think he heard Xiaobai's words, but said: "I won't be too quick next time."
The group practiced several times, and Luoliu gradually mastered the rhythm, became more and more proficient in raising the flag, and was able to find the right rhythm with the national anthem.
The sun is almost setting, and today's practice is over.
The principal and teacher Wu Mei separated from them and left. Zhang Tan led Xiaobai and the others outside the school.
Liuliu looked excited and kept chattering.
Xiaobai was a little silent.
After returning home, Zhang Tan also noticed that Xiaobai was not in high spirits, so he went to chat with her and learned that she was upset about not becoming a flag-raiser.
Zhang Tan encouraged her not to be discouraged. If she didn’t get selected this time, she would try her best next time. Isn’t there a flag-raising ceremony every week?
"Your competition is not Liuliu, but other senior children. As long as you perform well enough, you will have many opportunities in the future."
Xiaobai thought for a while, figured it out, nodded, and said proactively: "Liuliu performed very well today. She is qualified to be a flag-raiser. I am not jealous of her anymore."
Zhang Tan Lao Huai was delighted, it was great that his daughter thought so.
But what Xiaobai said next really surprised him.
"Old man, let's donate money to the school and build an automatic flagpole so that the flagpole won't rise too fast and too slowly."
Zhang Tan thought about this problem seriously and was pleased with Xiaobai's thoughts. His Xiaobai was indeed growing up.
However, Xiaobai then said: "In this case, Principal Li Tao will definitely let me be the flag-raiser."
Zhang Tan: "..."
My little friend, it would have been nice if you didn’t say this next sentence. Why do you want to continue with the dog’s tail? I was almost moved, but in the end...
Zhang sighed speechless.
In the evening, Liuliu came to Little Red Horse Academy after dinner. She immediately went to Xiaobai and gave her a roasted sweet potato.
The roasted sweet potatoes were steaming hot. I said I just bought them under the overpass on West Chang'an Street and it cost several yuan.
Liliu, who was already poor, was even worse and was on the verge of bankruptcy.
But she still spent money to buy a sweet potato. She didn't want to take a bite of it, so she gave it to Xiaobai and asked him to eat it.
She didn't say why she wanted to give it to Xiaobai. Given her greedy personality, this was very unusual.
But everyone seems to know why Liuliu does this.
Xiaobai looked at the roasted sweet potatoes, then at the pomegranates, and smiled.
She took the roasted sweet potato with both hands, put it under her nose and smelled it, exclaiming: "It smells so good. Smell it."
Pass it to the pomegranate.
Liuliu took a deep breath and agreed: "It really smells good."
Xiaobai asked: "Want to eat?"
Liuliu almost nodded, but luckily she realized in time that this was for Xiaobai and she couldn't eat it herself.
Xiaobai used both hands to break the roasted sweet potato into two pieces. He kept one piece for himself and gave another piece to Duoliu.
"We'll eat together, half for you and half for me."
Liuliu chuckled and agreed with this proposal, but it seemed a bit bad.
"Here you go, if you don't want it I'll eat it all."
Xiaobai stuffed the piece of sweet potato into her hand. She thought that Liuliu would be moved, but she didn't expect that Liuliu said "Hey duck" and almost dropped the sweet potato to the ground!
Too hot!
Fortunately, Liliu cherishes food very much. Although it was badly burned, he never let the sweet potato fall to the ground. Instead, he flipped it back and forth in his two hands, hissing haha.
Seeing this, Xiaobai lifted up the hem of his clothes and made it look like a bib, and asked Liuliu to throw the sweet potato into the bib.
"Let go, why are you lifting my clothes? My belly button is exposed." Luoliu said urgently.
The clothes that Xiaobai lifted up were hers, exposing her bulging belly. Luoliu had already seen Youguawazi looking towards her belly.
Xiaobai laughed and laughed, let go of the pomegranates, and took a bite of the roasted sweet potato. It was steaming and very hot, but it was also delicious.
She could often eat sweet potatoes in Baijia Village. In winter mornings, her grandma would steam sweet potatoes for her to eat for breakfast. They were soft, sweet, and delicious.
This is the flavor of the moment.
The two of them were sitting on the steps in the courtyard of the academy, with the mulberry trees rustling in the wind. They were eating roasted sweet potatoes and talking about raising the national flag.
Xiaobai is instructing Liuliu on some details of his actions.
Liliu expressed her determination, saying that she would be a good flag-raiser just like she was acting.
The two reached a consensus that they should work together to prepare for the flag-raising ceremony next week.
