Chapter 230: Second child his brother【02】

Yuan Jia lowered his head, preventing anyone from seeing his tearful face.

Jiang's father and mother, Jiang's mother, were repeatedly nodding by the class teacher, but did not notice Yuan Jia's expression standing at the entrance.

He wiped his tears, controlled the body's instinctive reaction, and took a deep breath.

Looking up at Jiang's father and Jiang's mother, I saw that the two of them were listening to the teacher's words very 'beautifully'.

The head teacher didn't stay for dinner. Seeing that Jiang's father and mother, Jiang's mother, had listened to his advice, and repeatedly assured him that he would not beat the child, he got up and left.

Jiang's father escorted the head teacher downstairs, the door closed gently, Jiang mother's eyes fell on Yuan Jia, with an indescribably complicated expression on her face, she said stiffly, "Let's eat."

She turned around and went to the kitchen, put the dishes in the microwave and warmed them up, then brought them out, and filled three bowls of rice: "Eat it first, your dad will be back later."

The food is very rich, and the family conditions of Jiang's family can only be said to be ordinary, but Jiang's father and mother have never been stingy to spend money on Jiang Yuanjia. Eating and drinking can't be treated badly, and walnuts that nourish the brain are a must.

Jiang's mother knocked two walnuts every day, and delivered the peeled walnut kernels to Jiang Yuanjia's hands. Every morning and evening, the milk was soaked and brought to him.

It can be said that Jiang Yuanjia stretched out his hand to open his mouth in Jiang's house. It's not that Jiang's father and mother are too used to him, but that he only needs to study, and doing housework wastes his study time.

But in fact, Jiang Yuanjia didn't develop the temperament to not help the oil bottle. He was actually happy to share the housework for his parents.

Once he helped Mother Jiang to mop the floor, but because he was not skilled, he mopped the floor several times to make the floor clean.

When Mother Jiang saw it, not only did she not praise him for his good work, but she picked up the iron ruler and slapped him, scolding him for not wasting his study time doing these things that had nothing to do with his studies.

Now, Mother Jiang naturally put the rice on the table, and even put chopsticks on him.

Yuanjia only said, "I've already eaten." Then he entered Jiang Yuanjia's room and closed the door.

Don't look at when the head teacher was here just now, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother kept admitting that she was wrong and should not beat the child, but Jiang's mother didn't mean to apologize to Yuan Jia at all, just said casually: "Let's eat."

It was as if she opened her mouth to ask him to eat, and it was over like that.

Yuan Jia knew that if he sat at the dinner table and ate that bowl of rice, he would have acquiesced in the past, and he would never get an explanation or an apology.

Yuan Jia looked at the original owner's room.

The condition of Jiang's family is ordinary, and the house he bought is also a small apartment with two bedrooms and one living room. Jiang Yuanjia's room is not very big. After putting a bed, there is only a desk with a small bookshelf next to the window. .

The small bookshelf was filled with various study materials, supplementary books, and famous book guides, and there were also thick stacks of written papers on the desk.

Yuan Jia sat down at the desk and opened the drawer in front of him. The most striking thing in the drawer was the two black gel refills bound by rubber bands. The smaller one was brand new and unused. , the one with the larger number is the empty tube that is used up.

These refills are only accumulated by the original owner in the second year of the first year of junior high school. It is conceivable how many words the original owner wrote.

He touched the thick calluses on the pulp of his right thumb and the knuckles of his middle finger, which were worn out from writing for a long time, and sighed slightly.

＜＜＜＜＜＜

When Yuan Jia was looking at the things left by the original owner in the drawer, the door that had been locked by him was suddenly opened. He turned to look and saw that Jiang's father was still holding the key in the lock of the door. On the hole, it was obvious that the door was opened with a spare key.

This kind of behavior that did not respect his privacy at all made him frown.

Father Jiang frowned even more tightly than he did. He came over and flipped over his desk like a prisoner: "Why are you locking the door? Are you secretly playing something?"

Father Jiang searched and found nothing, and said again: "You stand up."

He wanted to search Yuan Jia.

Yuan Jia said unbearably: "This is treating me as a prisoner? Do you still need to search? What do you see on me?"

He directly took the initiative to take out his pocket, and there was nothing except the hundreds of dollars given by the owner of the barbecue stall today.

Jiang's father saw the money and said, "You are still a student, so you can't put so much money on you. Give the money to your mother to save it for you."

The lucky money that the original owner gets every year is taken away for this reason, and then he can never get it back. As long as the original owner asked, Jiang's father and mother would stop him on the grounds of "We have raised you for so many years, and you have to rush us back for this new year's money? Then do you want to count with us how much we have spent raising you over the years".

After that, the original owner never asked again, and there was never any pocket money on him. When other students could buy snacks and toys, he stood by and watched enviously.

Because these things will never belong to him, in the eyes of Jiang's father and mother, snacks are junk food, and eating too much is not good for the body, and it will also affect the brain. Toys are easy to play with things, so it is better to read more books.

Yuan Jia put the hundreds of dollars back in his pocket and said, "No, in case you hit me again in the future, I can also run out to have some money to eat."

Jiang's father's face darkened, and he said solemnly, "Parents are just educating you, but you still hold grudges? We are your own parents, can we still harm you?"

Yuan Jia said indifferently, "There are many more cases of doing bad things with good intentions when you think you are good to me."

Jiang's father was so angry that he raised his slap and wanted to slap it down, but thinking of what his son's head teacher said to him today, he resisted the urge to hit the child, put down his hand and said, "If we hadn't been strict with you, how could you be so good now? results?"

Yuan Jia looked at him and said blankly, "How about we make a bet? If you don't discipline me so strictly in the future and let me arrange my own time, it means that you are right, and I will Be obedient. But if my grades don't drop, don't treat me like a marionette in the future."

"How did you talk?" Mother Jiang also walked in. "Mom and Dad care about you. If you picked it up, who would care so much about you? What does it matter to us if you get good grades?"

Yuan Jia didn't talk back to Jiang's mother, but looked at Jiang's father.

Jiang's father was angry and said angrily: "Okay, the labor and management have to see if you don't have us in charge of you, if you go out to play every day, how good can your academic performance be!"

Yuan Jia laughed, reached out and picked up the schoolbag, and said to Jiang's father and mother, "I have to do my homework, don't disturb me here."

As long as learning is used as an excuse, Jiang's father and mother will not refuse, even if they are unhappy, they still go out.

Yuan Jia took out today's homework from the original owner's heavy schoolbag and wrote it briskly.

The knowledge points of the second year of junior high school were nothing to him at all, and he finished writing them quickly.

If it was before that he had finished the homework assigned by the school teacher, Jiang's father and mother would definitely ask him to do the exercise books and papers they bought. But today Yuan Jia just made a bet with them, so they could only suppress their unhappiness. After watching Yuan Jia finish his homework, he turned on the TV and sat on the sofa while cutting his apple and nibbling on it, while watching TV.

Speaking of which, the original owner is also pitiful. From childhood to adulthood, he seldom watched TV at home. Only when there were guests at home, Jiang’s father and mother would turn on the TV for the guests to watch, and the original owner could watch for a while while accompanying the guests.

Yuan Jia finished chasing two episodes of the TV series, and at nine o'clock, he went to wash up and sleep.

He went to bed early and naturally woke up early the next morning.

After he got up at five o'clock in the morning, he went out for a run, then came back and made his own breakfast. After eating his own breakfast, he went to school with his schoolbag on his back.

＜＜＜＜＜＜

When Mother Jiang got up to call her son to go to school, she found that her son's bed was empty and there was movement in the kitchen.

When she saw her son making breakfast in the kitchen, she didn't know what it was like. She didn't disturb her son, and quietly went back to the bedroom, pretending that she hadn't gotten up yet.

Father Jiang also woke up and asked her, "What's wrong?"

Mother Jiang whispered: "Yuan Jia got up early and is making breakfast by herself."

Jiang's father just wanted to say that morning is a good time to read and endorse in the morning, how could he let his son waste time making breakfast, but suddenly remembered the bet he made with his son last night, and he swallowed the words that came to his lips.

"Let him go and wait for the results of the monthly test next week."

Jiang's father and Jiang's mother are all based on grades. If Yuan Jian can play every day and still get the first place in the exam, they will naturally not stop him from playing, but if there is any sign of a drop in grades, they can't blame them. He was strict.

Yuan Jia walked to the school, greeted the classmates with a relaxed smile, then sat in his seat and began to read and endorse in the morning.

Early self-study is divided between English and Chinese. Today happened to be Chinese early self-study. He opened the Chinese book to preview the articles to be taught in today's Chinese class, and recited the fragments that were required to be recited.

As soon as the early self-study was over, the head teacher called Yuan Jia to his office.

When Yuan Jia passed by, he saw other teachers in the office. They all looked at him with concern, thinking that the head teacher had told them about the farce of the Jiang family yesterday.

Yuan Jia pretended not to see anything, stood in front of the head teacher, and asked, "What is the teacher looking for me for?"

The head teacher asked gently, "Did your parents treat you yesterday?"

Yuan Jia smiled and said, "Thank you teacher yesterday. After the teacher left, my parents stopped beating me and promised to make a bet with me. Since yesterday, they have promised not to control me so strictly in the future. If I have dropped, I will continue to listen to them obediently, if my grades hadn’t dropped, they wouldn’t control me like they did before.”

Hearing this, the head teacher felt relieved and encouraged, "You can definitely keep your grades. Come on, the teacher will support you. If you have any questions in the future, you can always come to the office and ask the teachers of various subjects."

Yuan Jia looked around the teachers of other subjects and said, "Thank you teacher, thank you teachers, I will study hard."

When the last class in the morning was about to start, Yuan Jia said to Wang Qi, his deskmate, "Wang Qi, let's go together after school at noon today."

Wang Qi, who was sorting out the desk drawer, was slightly taken aback and looked at Yuan Jia with a surprised expression.

Wang Qi's home is farther from the school than Jiang's home, but a large part of his route home overlaps with Jiang Yuanjia's home route.

It took Jiang Yuanjia fifteen minutes to walk home, and at least ten minutes away to walk with Wang Qi.

Therefore, Wang Qi had invited Jiang Yuanjia to go home with him before, but Jiang Yuanjia always liked to dawdle because Wang Qi packed things after school, and had no time to wait for him, so he refused.

This time, Yuan Jia took the initiative to mention it, which surprised Wang Qi, who thought that the first student in his class, Gao Leng, looked down on others.

However, looking at Yuan Jia's smiling face, Wang Qi agreed: "Okay, I'll pack my schoolbag quickly."

Wang Qi also knew that Jiang Yuanjia refused to go with him before because he didn't want to wait for him. This time, Yuanjia proposed to go home together. He cherished this opportunity and packed up his schoolbag in advance before the last class in the morning.

As soon as the bell rang and the teacher left the classroom, Wang Qi smiled at Yuan Jia with her schoolbag: "Let's go."

Yuan Jia stood up empty-handed and walked outside the classroom with Wang Qi.

Wang Qi asked curiously, "Aren't you going home without your noon homework?"

Their class is a key class. Every day at noon, the teacher will assign several difficult problems for the students to do.

Yuan Jia said: "I plan to take a nap at home, and I will write my homework when I come to school in the afternoon. Anyway, there are only a few questions, and I will finish it soon."

Wang Qi didn't know much about the world of Xueba, but he was very envious of his understated tone that didn't take the problems assigned by the teacher into consideration.

The two walked side by side along the way, chatting about all kinds of gossip in the school, complaining that the homework was too much and too difficult, Yuan Jia also participated in the topic of this young teenager with great interest.

Because they were reluctant to separate too quickly, the two walked slowly, but the intersection of separation still came, one to the east and the other to the west, Wang Qi reluctantly waved to Yuan Jia: "Goodbye, I am on time at 1:45 in the afternoon. Waiting for you here."

Yuan Jia nodded and said, "Okay, let's meet here at 1:45. Whoever arrives first will wait for a while."

After the two made an appointment to go to school in the afternoon or to be together, they separated at the intersection.

Yuan Jia returned to Jiang's house. Father Jiang, who was sitting on the sofa, saw Yuan Jia come back empty-handed. He opened his mouth and asked, "Why didn't you bring your schoolbag back?"

Yuan Jia said, "I take a nap after lunch and go to school to do my homework."

Father Jiang wanted to lecture, but thinking of the bet he made with Yuan Jia last night, he shut his mouth again.

Mother Jiang had already made lunch. During the meal, Mother Jiang said, "Why don't you listen to English listening? Put the tape on it."

Yuan Jia refused and said, "Eat well when you eat. If you are distracted while eating, it's easy to indigestion."

He was the first to finish the meal, and without waiting for Jiang's father and mother, he took the tableware and chopsticks, cleaned them, and put them back in the cupboard.

After washing the dishes, he went to brush his teeth, then went to his room to take a nap, setting the alarm for 1:30 in the afternoon.

After waking up, he rinsed his mouth again, washed his face, looked at the round clock hanging on the wall, it was already 1:40, he went out on time and arrived at 1:45 The intersection agreed with Wang Qi.

Wang Qi was already waiting there, and the two went to school together talking and laughing.

After school in the afternoon, Wang Qi also invited him to play basketball, and Yuan Jia went with his schoolbag.

It's just a group of junior high school students playing basketball. The picture is for the fun of shooting. It's not formal at all. Yuan Jia has the best skills in it. After showing off his skills, he won several friends.

＜＜＜＜＜＜

Yuan Jia went home in a stinky sweat after playing basketball for half an hour. Jiang's father and mother asked, "Why did you come back so late?"

Yuan Jia said: "I made a few friends, played basketball together for a while, and exercised a bit."

Jiang's father said angrily: "Look at you, come back so late, play with some non-trivial people, sooner or later you will lose your grades..."

Yuan Jia interrupted his remarks and said, "People live in groups. I want to make friends, instead of being a nerd who can only face books forever."

Father Jiang wanted to say something, Yuan Jia said again: "We agreed, if you want to discipline me like before, you should wait until my grades drop."

Father Jiang did not speak with a sullen face.

Yuan Jia put down her schoolbag, took her clothes to take a bath, and could vaguely hear Jiang's mother comforting Jiang's father.

Yuan Jia also washed his clothes after taking a shower. While he was drying his clothes on the balcony, Mother Jiang also came to the balcony to collect the clothes. Seeing his movements, his mood was a bit complicated.

I feel dissatisfied that my son is wasting his study time by washing clothes, and I am relieved that my son will be able to do housework by himself when he grows up. The mood is very complicated.

After Yuan Jia finished drying his clothes, he went to do his homework. As soon as he finished his homework, he heard Jiang's mother calling him to eat.

After dinner, he peeled another apple, and while eating fruit after dinner, he chased the TV series he didn't watch yesterday.

Yuan Jia has been so leisurely for the rest of the day. He didn't even go to make-up classes on weekends, and directly asked for a refund of the make-up class fee.

Although Jiang's father and Jiang's mother were angry, they still held back, thinking about holding on until the results of the monthly test next week, if his grades dropped a little bit, they would have reason to discipline him again.

Yuan Jia knew their thoughts like the back of the hand, but unfortunately it would never be as they wished.

During the monthly exam, Yuan Jia deliberately estimated the score when he answered the question, and controlled the total score to improve by a few points compared to the previous monthly exam.

The final result is definitely the first place in the grade.

When the transcripts were brought back to Jiang's house and given to Jiang's father and mother for review, they looked at the transcripts in disbelief. Jiang's father also called the head teacher to inquire about the authenticity of the results.

The head teacher praised: "Jiang Yuanjia's exam results are very good this time, he dropped the second place by more than 20 points. This monthly exam paper is much more difficult than the last one. I didn't expect Jiang Yuanjia to take the exam. The score is higher than last time..."

After Jiang's father hung up the phone, he looked at Yuan Jia with complicated eyes.

Yuan Jia said, "Can I prove myself now? In fact, studying is a combination of work and rest. I always study under high pressure, my mental state is tense, and my grades are not easy to improve."

Of course, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother will not admit that they are wrong. One of the powers of parents is to refuse to admit their mistakes in the face of their children's mistakes.

Father Jiang also said stubbornly: "This is just a monthly test. If your grades in the next monthly test drop, you still can't play like you are now."

Yuan Jia said indifferently, "Of course, our bet is valid for every exam."

He can guarantee that he will not miss every exam. Therefore, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother can't think of finding a reason to control him.

＜＜＜＜＜＜

After Yuan Jia's exams, the total score will improve by a few points every time, and he has always been ranked first in the grade.

In the end, the good grades that were close to full marks remained unchanged, leaving Jiang's father and mother speechless.

They also vaguely realize that their high-pressure education for their son is not as good as his son's easy learning now.

This made them very lost, and they couldn't help thinking: Is their education method really wrong?

Yuan Jia had just finished the high school entrance examination and was on summer vacation. He took the money he had saved and went out to play with Wang Qi for a few days. When he returned, he was told by Jiang's father and mother that he might have more brothers and sisters.

Yuan Jia was stunned for a moment, and her eyes fell on Mother Jiang's stomach.

The original male protagonist has become a small embryo?

Jiang's father and Jiang's mother were an early marriage and early childbearing couple. Jiang's mother was only twenty-one years old when Jiang Yuanjia was born, and now she is only thirty-six years old. There is no problem with having a second child.

Yuan Jia did not reject the second-born brother like some only children who were worried that their parents only loved their younger siblings but not their younger siblings. He said calmly, "Oh, I see."

Jiang's father and mother Jiang were slightly relieved to see that he did not reject this unborn child.

Jiang's mother began to raise the baby at home, Jiang's father was going to work, and then Yuan Jia took over the housework at home.

Jiang's father and mother, who originally thought that his housework was a waste of study time, don't mention it anymore, and it is very natural to ask him to do housework.

Yuan Jia's mood is a bit subtle. Although he does not reject housework, he even does it himself from the beginning, but when Jiang's mother is pregnant with her second child, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother begin to ask him to work, and this attitude has become too much. almost?

Could it be that they felt that the tuba was disobedient and decided to only practice the trumpet, regardless of the tuba?

Yuan Jia was in a delicate mood, and things seemed to be subtle as well.

After Jiang's mother became pregnant, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother both focused their attention on this unborn child. He didn't want to buy too many study materials at first, but Jiang's father and Jiang's mother also took the initiative to buy them back for him. Now they no longer Take the initiative to buy him study materials.

Although Yuan Jia himself didn't want it, but Jiang's father and mother's attitude changed so quickly, it still made him feel very delicate.

After the results of the senior high school entrance examination came out, Yuan Jia won the top spot in the senior high school entrance examination with a good score close to full marks.

This good news made Jiang's father and mother re-focus on him, happily showing off his good grades everywhere, and spending money to hold a very grand entrance banquet, inviting many relatives and friends, including Yuanjia's junior high school teachers. invited over.

In the end, which key high school to go to, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother discussed very happily, but no one remembered to ask him the opinion of the party.
