reborn to run

Chapter 11

From Shuitang Village, where Guixiang's family lives, to Dongting Village, where her aunt lives, there is a dirt road of more than seven miles. The wind blows under Guixiang's feet. When she arrived at her aunt's house, her aunt just brought her breakfast. Why are you here so early? Is there something urgent?"

Guixiang walked such a long way in dog days, hot and thirsty, when she arrived at her aunt's house, she took half a scoop of raw water and poured it down in one breath, panting and said: "There is no urgent matter at home, I have something to ask my aunt for help .”

"What's the matter?" Shan Fumei even put down the bowl because of Gui Xiang's serious look.

"Sister-in-law, I want to go to elementary school, but the team says I won't be accepted if I'm too old."

Shan Fumei frowned and said with a sullen face: "No one who goes to school has a chance to take the college entrance examination. What are you going to do in this school? Go back quickly."

"Sister-in-law, I just want to know a few words. How can I expect to take the college entrance examination?" Guixiang knew that her sister-in-law had a scar in her heart, so she didn't want to expose it.

"If you go to school just to learn a few words, it's okay. Our village allows older children to study, and the team allows you to skip grades. As long as you work hard, you can be promoted to the upper grade next year. I'll go I'll help you sign up, and I'm going to work in a while."

Gui Xiang was so happy that she jumped up, this trip was not in vain.

The dog days of the sun baked the leaves a little wilted, but the cinnamon was like walking on the path of Yangchun, and it was a joy.But here comes the problem again, she can't stay at her sister-in-law's house, her sister-in-law is not a generous person, she has to get up early and walk seven miles to school every day, bring some food at noon, and walk seven miles home at night.It's brighter in summer, but it's troublesome in winter.However, she is not afraid!
Probably because of Gui Xiang's anxious heart, this summer has become much longer.After several rainstorms, the new semester that Guixiang is looking forward to comes.

Hou Chunsheng took Guixiang's place, cooking and carrying water every morning.A few days ago, Guixiang left early, so she didn't have time to eat breakfast. On the fourth day, Chunsheng deliberately got up earlier than usual, and gave her a big bowl of rice: "It's boring to go to class without breakfast."

Guixiang had never felt so good when a brother was in pain. She took the bowl in his hand and drank more than half of it in one go.

During the recess, all the students went to the playground to jump the big rope. Guixiang sat on her seat and recited the lectures in class. Then she found the black cloth from the wooden schoolbag and concentrated on writing silently.Teacher Xu, who delivered things to the class, saw that she was so serious, and was a little more moved, and gave a few copies of Guixiang to her old notebook in the office.

Every night, Guixiang always boiled a large pot of hot water and soaked her ankles in the hot water. After walking for a few days, her toes hurt.

When she got home that day, the family had already finished their meal. Guixiang found some cold rice and made a rice ball. When she entered the kitchen, she saw Hou Chunsheng cooked a bowl of noodles for her: "Eat it, eat it every day." Cold rice is not good for the stomach. I brought this noodles from my house a few days ago. Aren’t there exams tomorrow, so I’ll read the books later.”

Gui Xiang's eye sockets heated up and took the bowl in his hand: "Thank you brother."

Staring at her big eyes, Hou Chunsheng's heart seemed to be brushed by a small fluffy brush, feeling indescribably comfortable.

Chunsheng took a small cloth bag from his pocket and gave it to her, said, "This is for you," and opened the door to go out.

Guixiang opened the small scarlet pocket, and there were actually two pairs of brand new socks inside, these socks were not cheap at first sight.Her socks were torn and out of shape a long time ago, and she didn't bother to wear them. After walking back and forth for the past few days, she had developed several blisters on the soles of her feet, which hurt when she was running in physical education class.

From the bottom of her heart, she was grateful to this careful brother Wan, no, he is not her brother Wan now!Should she call him big brother?
Three days later, the results came out, and Guixiang undoubtedly won the first place in the class. She took the initiative to propose to the teacher to go to the third grade.Of course Guixiang's third grade book was given to her by Ma Xiaohong back then.
