Chapter 5: A breakfast of memory bread
Li Hongmei herself didn't realize that she was smiling all the way to work by bike. Everything seemed pleasing to her eyes, and even the sun seemed brighter than usual.

When she entered the office, her aunt's colleague who was in her forties glanced at her and said "oh".

"Hongmei, is there any happy event at home?"

"What happy event? What happy event can there be at my age?" Li Hongmei said this, but she stopped and paused.

This is one of the weird chat rules for adults: waiting for the other person to come up with the joke.

The loud-voiced woman also gave him face, "What's that? You look so happy, you look ten years younger."

At 8:52, almost everyone in the office had arrived. People were pulling up chairs, making tea, flipping through notebooks, and laying out their calligraphy practice papers, all with their ears perked up.

"Hey, nothing much, it's just that my kid made some money during the summer vacation." Li Hongmei waved her hand, "He was afraid that I would be tired, so he refused to let me make breakfast in the morning."

"I spent that much money on breakfast, and he even said he would pay for my future breakfasts."

When they reach middle age, the only pleasure for these women in the system, besides gossiping, is to scold their husbands and show off their children, looking proud.

"Your son has grown up, which is really rare. My son only knows how to play games." The loud-voiced woman spoke, causing a huge uproar.

The older colleagues around echoed a few words, and the young people couldn't get a word in. The new young man said something with a smile on his face.

"Aunt Li, how are your son's grades?"

Some people are really gifted, and they can make the topic awkward with just one sentence. Everyone in the office knows that Li Hongmei's son has average grades and it is difficult for him to get into college.

Boom boom boom!
There was a knock on the door. Xu Qianqian opened the door unhappily and it was indeed Jiang Nian.

"What the hell is wrong with you so early in the morning?"

A breakfast was handed to her. Xu Qianqian was stunned for a moment, feeling a little overwhelmed.

"Stop trying to bribe me!"

"Just eat it if I give it to you, Aba Aba." Jiang Nian clicked his tongue.

Summer is especially hard, and a breakfast broke the barrier between the two. Although Xu Qianqian didn't say anything, she was still a little touched in her heart, after all, she was hungry too.

"Thank you."

"No need, lend it to me to copy after you finish your homework."

Xu Qianqian: “.”

The dining table was divided into two sides. Xu Qianqian was eating breakfast slowly at one end, while Jiang Nian was copying homework at the other end. They were in different classes, but they had the same science test paper.

He didn't dare to copy all the answers and only copied the answers that were within his level.

When she had nothing to do, Xu Qianqian squinted her eyes and watched the melting golden sunlight coming through the window, then glanced at Jiang Nian who was working hard at the table.

"I say, have you ever thought about improving your grades?"

Hearing this, Jiang Nian paused, looked up and frowned.

"Yes, but there are two ideas in my head, one is empty, and the other is also empty."

Xu Qianqian was speechless, "What about your college entrance examination?"

Jiang Nian sighed, "I want to learn too, but there are so many homework assignments in the third year of high school. My foundation is not solid to begin with, and all my time is spent on homework."

"That's because you're slow."

"I'm slow because I don't know how to do it." He spread his hands. "After finishing this, I'm too late for that subject. What else can I do if I don't cheat?"

Xu Qianqian crossed her arms, "Tsk, this is clearly an excuse."

Ding!
【Trigger learning tasks, learn until you die

You are 38 years old, just divorced, and at a fork in your life. At the age of 40, to make a comeback in life, you need not only a strong body, but also the cultivation of appreciating beauty. Mission: Have a pleasant conversation with Xu Qianqian.

Reward: Memory Bread (five hours), in this state you can quickly memorize knowledge. 】

Jiang Nian stared at the panel, feeling a little confused. The system was announcing the progress of the Gou Ba mission, so, was his future self pursuing Xu Qianqian?

He didn't reject it, but he just felt that it was a bit strange.

Never mind, the reward is what matters.

"Xu Qianqian, you're right!" Jiang Nian suddenly became serious, staring at the girl across the table and said seriously, "It's easy to give up, but it's hard to persist."

"My English is not good. Since I'm treating you to breakfast, can you teach me how to memorize words?"

He was not really motivated, but he knew very well that Xu Qianqian had good English grades. She was the English class representative in her class and got full marks in almost every exam.

What's even more abnormal is that she not only memorized all 3,500 words for the college entrance examination, but also memorized the Level 4 and Level 6 exams. Whenever someone asked her about English, she would be very happy.

Sure enough, Jiang Nian’s words touched her sore spot, and her eyes narrowed into crescent shapes.

"Well, for the sake of breakfast, I will be merciful and tell you."

Jiang Nian listened to the lecture for five minutes and his mental activity was as follows:
*(*ˊˋ)*, worthy of being a full-score contestant, he still has some stuff, yes, I understand!
Ten minutes:
(_) She seems to be talking very happily. Should I interrupt her?

Twenty minutes:

(﹃), Master, please stop reciting. I’m just thinking about it!
Half an hour:
(╯▔皿▔)╯She talks more than my mom!

"So, do you remember what I just said?" Xu Qianqian said with a dry mouth. She took a sip of the cold soy milk. He taught her all her life's skills.

"I remember it, but not completely." Jiang Nian stood up instantly and walked out directly. "Wait for me to think about it, and I'll tell you this afternoon."

"Hey! You..." Xu Qianqian looked at someone's back, her teeth almost breaking.

This guy really wasted half an hour talking!
After returning home, Jiang Nian opened the panel.

【Task: Have a pleasant conversation with Xu Qianqian. (Completed)

Reward: Memory Bread (five hours), in this state you can quickly memorize knowledge. 】

After listening to the study seminar for half an hour, he finally got the task reward. Almost instantly, a piece of bread as big as Daliyuan appeared in his hand.

Wow, real-time settlement.

Jiang Nian touched his chin. He was a pragmatic person. Xu Qianqian was right. He couldn't just keep giving up. The most important thing at the moment was the college entrance examination.

Personally, Jiang Nian, as a resident of a small county town, has a higher starting point than rural children. At least there is a safety net, if his studies don't work out, he can come back and find a job with connections.

But, this is not what he wants.

Reading is still the best way for ordinary people to change their destiny!

Secondly, getting into a good university not only reduces tuition fees, but also makes your parents feel more confident when they tell them about it.

Memorizing by rote won't get you a high score, but it won't get you a low score. If you have five hours to memorize, it's more than enough to go through the 3,500 words in the college entrance examination.

But it would be a waste to use all the time to memorize words. In fact, you only need to master 70% to 80% of the English words and your grades will not be too bad.

Therefore, time must be allocated reasonably. After all, other subjects also have knowledge points that need to be remembered.

Jiang Nian opened the first page and suddenly couldn't hold it anymore.

“abandon”
