Stereotypes

In the afternoon when I came back from the composition competition, it happened to be in time for the inter-class exercises in the third grade of junior high school.As the physical education entrance examination is approaching, the school specially changed the content of the activity to "boys complete the 1000-meter long-distance race, and girls complete the 800-meter long-distance race".

Everyone sighed and prepared on the cement basketball court beside the runway, and went to the runway one by one.

Chen Han dawdled in the toilet for a long time, and did not come out until everyone went downstairs for a run. When he got to the door of the classroom, someone came and called him.

It's Zhang Kaixi from Class [-].

With a pretty face, long legs and a small waist, she is a standard beauty.

"Is there something wrong?" Chen Han glanced at this former primary school classmate.

"Yes." Zhang Kaixi handed over a letter wrapped in pink letter paper with her ten fingertips, "Here you are, Ban Tanggu."

Chen Han took the unsigned letter and looked at her: "You wrote it?"

"You don't care." Zhang Kaixi's tone was impatient, but her expression was a little shy.

Chen Han walked into the classroom with a mocking face.

There is also a self-study class after the inter-class exercises. The grade teacher often dangles between the classes with a beer belly, inspecting the self-study situation online.

Tang Gu managed to find a self-study class that he could assign independently, and was lowering his head to solve the homework assigned by the teachers of various subjects today, when suddenly the back table poked him on the back and handed him a thin letter.

"It's for you." The back desk lowered its voice and said.

Before Tang Gu had time to open it, a hand appeared from above his head, and quietly pulled the letter over.

He looked up and saw the grade director with a serious face.

Damn, what kind of shit luck is this.

Standing in the boiling water room with a water glass, Duke watched Ding Shishi pick up the water, his brows were almost wrinkled to the sky: "What should I do, Tangtang went to the grade department and didn't come back for so long, he must have been scolded bloody .”

Ding Shishi unscrewed the bottle cap unhurriedly: "What's there to scold, isn't it just the crap about puppy love?"

Duke almost spouted: "Who is in love early? Tangtang? Whoever is in love early will not fall in love early!"

Ding Shishi thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's right, my deskmate almost wrote a letter. I'm an emotionless killer, and it's on my face."

"What happened to Tang Gu?" someone asked.

Both of them raised their heads to look at him, it was Qu Zhaoyuan from class three.

"The love letter was discovered by the director and he was taken to the grade department." Ding Shishi joked.

When Duke hit his head, he was a little angry: "Don't talk nonsense."

"Why the hell did you hit me?"

"It was you who hit you, Big Mouth."

The two completely ignored him, beat and scolded each other and walked out of the boiling water room.

Qu Zhaoyuan put the cup in the water room and walked directly to the grade department.

As soon as he opened the door of the grade department, he saw the grade director bouncing up and down in the office with a big face flushed. Tang Gu stood quietly and looked at him while he was bouncing.

Like an idiot.

Qu Zhaoyuan thought about it and walked over.

"Do you know, puppy love! It's a very serious behavior! Especially at your current stage, when the exam is approaching, how can you..."

"Director Hong."

Qu Zhaoyuan called him.

Tang Gu gave a passionate speech for half an hour after being nagged by director Hong, and fell asleep.At this moment, he woke up instantly, blinked his eyes, thinking that he was hallucinating, then turned his head quickly and saw Qu Zhaoyuan.

Director Hong was still immersed in his own world and delivered a speech blah blah blah.

Qu Zhaoyuan had no choice but to raise his voice and call him a second time.

"Huh?" Director Hong turned his head.

Finally stopped.

"Qu Zhaoyuan?" Director Hong looked at him puzzled, "Why are you here?"

"That love letter is for me." Qu Zhaoyuan cut to the chase.

"What?" Director Hong didn't respond for a long time.

Tang Gu suddenly turned his head to look at Qu Zhaoyuan.

The love letter didn't include the signature and the addressee. The ghost knows if it was a prank, but it made the director mess up so easily.

"It's not for Tang Gu, it's for me." Qu Zhaoyuan smiled.

"Laughing? You still have the nerve to laugh?!" Director Hong was so angry that his glasses slipped to the tip of his nose, and he pointed at him with trembling fingers, "It's almost a race and you're still receiving love letters here?!"

"Then it's not my fault that I'm good-looking and someone wrote me a love letter." Qu Zhao was a little bit aggrieved.

Tang Gu couldn't hold back, lowered his head and secretly smiled.

"You... you you you you..." Director Hong looked at him "you" for a long time, and finally scolded them both before letting them go.

After leaving the office, Qu Zhaoyuan's expression turned cold in an instant, and he walked up the stairs quickly without looking at Tang Gu.

Tang Gu held back his smile and hurriedly chased after him: "Why are you walking so fast, classmate Qu?"

Qu Zhaoyuan didn't look at him, and only left him the back of his head, dragging out each word: "Who gave you the love letter?"

Tang Gu looked innocent: "I don't know."

Qu Zhaoyuan stood on the steps without moving, turned his head around for a moment, and looked at him angrily: "Can you stop accepting other people's love letters casually? You know that you can't be distracted when you are about to compete ?”

"I know, I know." Tang Gu jumped up a few steps, nodded very sincerely, "I won't accept it in the future, this is an unexpected situation today."

"I'm just supervising and supervising you." Qu Zhaoyuan looked at him and added.

"Okay. Thank you, Student Qu, for your supervision." Tang Gu smiled.

Not surprisingly, Qu Zhaoyuan did very well in the preliminary exam, second in grade, first in class, and a perfect score in mathematics.He squeezed into the crowd at the back of the classroom and glanced at the age ranking list posted on the wall. Tang Gu was also very good this time, ninth in grade and third in class.

At the same time, there is only one week left in the math competition, and the intensity is gradually increasing. In addition to staying an extra hour every night, you have to stay in school on Friday, and make up half a day of class on Saturday morning.

There were about 10 or [-] contestants in the whole grade, and they were crowded in a large multimedia classroom to listen to the class. Qu Zhaoyuan went to the classroom [-] minutes earlier and took two seats with a good view.

After ringing the bell, Wei Qun flew over cheerfully like a bird holding a pile of test papers: "Qu Zhaoyuan, you love me so much, you even help me take a seat! Love you!"

"It's not reserved for you." Qu Zhaoyuan said, and by the way, Tang Gu got up and walked towards the door of the classroom, beckoning.

Tang Gu came over and put down the book, and said with a smile, "Thank you."

Wei Qun angrily carried the test paper and went to find a seat at the back.

Qu Zhaoyuan and Tang Gu laughed.

It was Wen Ting's turn to tutor the competition tonight, and he took out a test paper that was given to the contestants last week and began to speak.

While listening, Qu Zhaoyuan sat closer to Tang Gu, and unconsciously moved his legs.Tang Gu didn't say a word, and moved his legs slightly to the side, and the two of them just leaned on each other.

After class, Qu Zhaoyuan sat on his seat without moving, watching Tang Gu pack his things slowly.

"Don't go back to sleep yet? I have to make up for half a day tomorrow morning." Tang Gu said.

Qu Zhaoyuan responded, and took out a pack of dried fish from his pocket, and put it in the pocket of Tang Gu's down jacket: "This time it's spiced."

Tang Gu nodded: "On behalf of all Xiaoyugan, thank you for your feeding."

"Fuck you." Qu Zhaoyuan laughed.

On the second day, all the contestants first did a set of real test simulations, and then analyzed the test papers as usual. After the morning, Qu Zhaoyuan felt that he was starving to death.

"Will you go home later?" Qu Zhaoyuan whispered to Tang Gu when get out of class was about to end.

"Yeah." Tang Gu stared at the blackboard, "My grandma must want to kill my precious son and grandson, I have to go back and let her take a good look."

"You still have to kiss and hug, right?" Qu Zhaoyuan asked.

"Yes." Tang Gu responded.

When he was packing up and going to the school gate to take the bus, Tang Gu ran into Director Wang with a mustache in the corridor.

Grinning his white teeth, he walked towards Tang Gu: "Tang Gu, guess how many prizes you won in the English composition competition?"

"Come out so soon?" Tang Gu smiled, "First prize."

"Hey, you're too immodest." Director Wang patted him on the shoulder in reproach, "That's right, it's the first prize! You and Qu Zhaoyuan are two first prizes from our school! By the way Remember to come to my office to get the certificate when you go back to school next week, and call Shang Qu Zhaoyuan together."

"Okay, thank you Director Wang." Tang Gu bowed to him.

Walking out of the school gate, I just drove past a No. 14 bus.

Perfect miss.Tang Gu stood and took out his mobile phone, and suddenly changed his mind about going home.

He found Qu Zhaoyuan's number and dialed it.After two beeps over there, someone picked it up: "Hello."

Tang Gu said: "Classmate Qu, congratulations on winning the first prize in composition."

The other side laughed softly: "You too?"

Tang Gu was infected by the laughter coming from his ears, and nodded: "Yeah."

The two of them didn't speak any more, they just held their phones and listened to each other's breathing.

"Qu Zhaoyuan." Tang Gu buttoned the tab on the back of the phone unconsciously, "I didn't understand a few questions in the test paper just now, can I come to your home and ask for advice?"

Qu Zhaoyuan, who was sleepy as soon as he got home, jumped up from the bed, and hurriedly dressed with his mobile phone under his shoulder: "Okay, come up, remember which building my house is in? Do you want me to pick you up?"

"I remember." Tang Gu said.

Qu Zhaoyuan ran to the small living room like a gust of wind, picked up the clothes piled on the sofa and threw them into the washing machine.After looking left and right, I tidied it up, and it looked barely 90% neat, when the doorbell rang.

Qu Zhaoyuan opened the door and looked at Tang Gu who was carrying a schoolbag.Tang Gu pushed his glasses.

"Let's eat first, have you eaten yet?" Qu Zhaoyuan asked him.

"Didn't eat, eat instant noodles?" Tang Gu said.

"I don't eat instant noodles anymore. When I see instant noodles, I feel conditioned to vomit." Qu Zhaoyuan said seriously.

Tang Gu laughed, and then said, "I'll cook. Do you have rice, ham sausage, tomato, etc. at home?"

"Yes." Qu Zhaoyuan led him into the kitchen, "The rice is in the cabinet, and the rest are in the refrigerator."

"Ok."

For soup, soak the rice and put it in the rice cooker.I took out a few more tomatoes and carrots, washed them and cut them into cubes.

Qu Zhaoyuan leaned against the door and looked at him: "Why are you such a good wife and mother?"

"Yes." Tang Gu started cutting the sausage without raising his head, "Learn more, Classmate Qu."

Finally, a pot of colorful steamed rice was baked, which smelled quite delicious.

"Seeing you eat, I really have no appetite." Qu Zhaoyuan said to Tang Gu with chopsticks.

Tang Gu put a spoonful of rice into his mouth unhurriedly, and glanced at him.

"Hey, do you know?" Qu Zhaoyuan looked at the soup so he ignored him and was excited, and said to him enthusiastically, "When I first saw you, I thought you were like a little old man. I didn't expect you to eat Also like a little old man, chewing slowly, taking one bite at a time."

Tang Gu's expression changed from indifference to shock: "Isn't it Harry Potter? You call me an old man with such a handsome face?"

"Maybe it's because of the glasses." Qu Zhaoyuan thought for a while, gestured and said with a smile.

After the two finished eating and cleaned up the dishes, they started to come up with competition questions.

Qu Zhaoyuan solved several questionable questions for Tang Gu, and then the two began to study the real competition questions over the years.

Before I knew it, it was getting dark.

Tang Gu glanced at his phone, got up and packed his schoolbag: "I really have to go, otherwise my grandma would think I was kidnapped."

"I'll see you off." Qu Zhaoyuan also stood up.

"No need." Tang Gu opened the door, turned his head and smiled at him, "Don't waste time, let's work hard next week."

The competition time is next Monday, which is the day after tomorrow.

Qu Zhaoyuan looked at him: "Well, you too."

Early on Sunday morning, the street opposite the community was already bustling.Tang Gu finished eating fried dough sticks and soy milk in a small shop, wiped his mouth, got up and went to the door of the watch shop next door. There was a signboard with red background and yellow letters hanging on the door: "Engraving, clocks and watches".

"Boss, engrave a sign, it needs to be copper." Tang Gu gestured with his finger, "It's about this big."

The owner of the clock shop was a crew-cut man wearing a canvas vest. After hearing this, he put down his phone and leaned against the counter to pick out a small piece of copper half the size of a finger, and showed it to Tang Gu, "Is it done?"

"Success." Tang Gu thought for a while, took a pen and paper and wrote his home address, his father's and his mobile phone number, "Engrave these words."

When I got home, my grandmother was sitting on the sofa watching Channel Eleven wearing a pair of reading glasses.Tang Gu walked over and sat beside her.

Grandma smiled at him, and continued to stare at the TV cheerfully.

"Grandma," Tang Gu gently held the bronze medal on the chain in his hand, looked at her, "would you like to wear this?"

Grandma frowned and took the chain and looked carefully: "What is this?"

"It's for you, a present." Tang Gu coaxed her, "You have to wear it when I give it to you, right?"

Grandma touched Tang Gu's head and said with a smile, "Of course I have to wear it as a gift from my grandson."

Tang Gu squatted in front of grandma, and put the chain on for her with his own hands: "You can't take it off casually, do you know grandma?"

"I know, I know." Grandma replied.

"Grandma, wait for Tang Gu, wait for Tang Gu to become capable, please." Tang Gu looked at her and thought.

Tang Gu was afraid to sleep alone when he was a child, and always liked to share the bed with his grandmother.He was young and chattering, and he would talk to his grandmother about everything he thought of. Sometimes he insisted on his grandmother reading the poor English that he learned during the day, and sometimes he pestered his grandmother to tell him a bedtime story.

He even told grandma verbatim the stupid things like "that male classmate next door is dressed very cutely today, I seem to like him".

Tang Gu couldn't remember what his grandmother's reaction was, but he only remembered what she said to him at the end. She said, no matter who you like, grandma will support you, because grandma believes in you.

The weekend is fleeting.

The venue of the competition is the No. [-] High School in the city, which is the place where all the outstanding students in the county are fascinated by.

Dad woke up early and drove Tang Gu to the gate of the key middle school.

"Xiaogu, come on, Dad believes in you." Dad smiled rarely, showing a mouthful of irregular yellow teeth.

At the door, I met Wen Ting who was holding a pile of examination admission tickets and was looking around with his head stretched out. He was very happy to see Tang Gu, picked out Tang Gu's examination admission ticket for him, and patted him on the shoulder: "Young man, Take the exam well."

"Thank you teacher." Tang Gu took the admission ticket.

"And mine, Wen Ting?"

Qu Zhaoyuan's lazy laughter sounded behind him.

Tang Gu turned his head and looked at him.Qu Zhaoyuan wore a dark black thick sweater today, with straight and long legs, very energetic.

"It's not big or small." Wen Ting glared at him, and handed him his admission ticket, "You have to take the test hard."

"Understood." Qu Zhaoyuan smiled, and entered the school with Tang Gu.

Qu Zhaoyuan's examination room is on the first floor, and Tang Gu's is on the second floor.When the two were about to separate at the stairs, Qu Zhaoyuan stopped Tang Gu.The two were separated by a crowd of examinees with pencil bags, Qu Zhaoyuan said, "Tang Gu, I think I can go to No. [-] Middle School with you after today."

Tang Gu felt his palms getting wet, he nodded, and finally said, "Me too."

The pace of life after the mathematics competition has not slowed down. Before the results come out, the contestants have to prepare for the early recruitment exam that will come with May Day two months later.

It is not easy to obtain the qualifications to participate in the early recruitment examination. Before that, the final examination of each semester accounted for 10% of the total score. In addition, there are two upcoming major examinations, one accounting for 30% and the other accounting for 60%.Only those students who rank among the top 200 in the whole year with these three scores are eligible to take the early recruitment exam.

"Hey," Wei Qun looked at his previous year's final assessment, and sighed, "People like me can only work hard in the early recruitment."

He rubbed his eyelids, looked at the front desk who was flipping through a magazine casually, and couldn't help but kicked him lightly: "No accident, you should be able to take a vacation, grandson."

"Maybe." Qu Zhaoyuan turned his head and smiled, already thinking about how many days he would have to play before being locked up in No. [-] Middle School.

You can play with Tang Gu.To travel, to eat delicious food.

Just think about it and be happy.

After half a week in such a peaceful environment, the results of the math competition came out.There were [-] winners in total, Qu Zhaoyuan was the only first prize winner, and Tang Gu was one of the five second prize winners.

It stands to reason that such a result is not ideal, but the school still held a grand award ceremony for the winning contestants, which gathered the whole school to watch.

The lower grades and upper grades all moved their chairs into the auditorium like a long line of water.

Wei Qun saw Qu Zhaoyuan and Tang Gu who were waiting for the award presentation in the audience, threw away their chairs and ran over to hug them one by one.

"Congratulations, congratulations, you really look good on me."

Tang Gu looked at him and smiled: "Your score is quite high, I think it is higher than the competition students in many schools."

Wei Qun happily ran back and sat down.

First, the headmaster gave a long speech on stage, and there was sparse applause from the audience.

"Then I will be happier if you can accompany me to No. [-] Middle School."

Qu Zhaoyuan looked at Tang Gu beside him in the echo of the microphone, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Qu Zhaoyuan." Tang Gu called him quietly, looking into his eyes, "I'm happier than you when you won the first prize, believe it or not?"

"I believe." Qu Zhaoyuan nodded.

"I'm very satisfied with the second prize. After all, my grades were not top-notch at the beginning, and Wei Qun's idea is almost to accompany the exam." Tang Gu smiled, and touched his shoulder without a trace, "Wait for me to come with you." confluence."

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Qu Zhaoyuan blinked.

Qu Zhao originally wanted to invite Tang Gu to dinner, but the two went to the grade department to ask for leave.Director Hong was very happy and agreed that the two of them took the evening self-study leave to go out for dinner in the name of celebrating the prize in the competition, but out of disciplinary considerations, they were still required to come back before the end of the second period of evening self-study.

When Tang Gu went up to receive the award, he was habitually nervous and sweated all over, so he went back to the dormitory to take a shower.

Standing in front of the mirror and wiping his hair, he suddenly remembered what Qu Zhaoyuan said, "When I saw you for the first time, I looked like a little old man", so he picked up the glasses that were set aside and put them on and looked in the mirror.It seems a bit like it, he thought, put the small round glasses on the bathroom sink, and decisively chose not to wear glasses to go out.

Qu Zhaoyuan asked Tang Gu to choose a place to eat, and Tang Gu chose an open-air beer stand not far from Lanyuan Community.

The two of us ordered a heap of BBQ and a couple of beers.

In March, the weather turns warmer, but it is still quite cold at night.After a few glasses of beer without ice, both of them became a little tipsy.

Tang Gu clutched the wine glass in a daze, was blown by the wind blowing from the side of the road, sneezed, and then his palms were grabbed by the person opposite.

Qu Zhaoyuan didn't speak, just stared at the table in silence.

The author has something to say:

Tut tut, tut tut.
