Chapter 3 Wake Up, Boy
Chen Xiaoshuai's family's financial situation is pretty good. His father is in the building materials business.
My mother is a civil servant, working in a street office, which is a relaxing job, and the income is guaranteed despite droughts and floods.
He also has a sister named Chen Shiyu, who is three years older than Chen Xiaoshuai.
I go to college in the provincial capital and only go home during the winter and summer vacations.
After opening the door and entering the house, the sound of cooking came from the kitchen. Chen Xiaoshuai suddenly collapsed on the sofa and shouted: "Mom, cook more delicious food today, I'm hungry!"
"Okay, Xiaoshuai, please sit down for a moment. You can eat soon." His mother Jiang Guiqin's voice came from the kitchen: "Old Chen, where did you die? You haven't come out to serve the food yet!"
"Two minutes, you'll be ready soon!" A man's voice came from the study.
"How old are you, and you still play games! Really!" Jiang Guiqin complained.
A few minutes later, a middle-aged man wearing slippers came out of the room.
Judging from the outline, he is very similar to Chen Xiaoshuai. His face is not bad, and his belly shows obvious signs of gaining weight in middle age.
This is Chen Xiaoshuai's father, Chen Zhimin. He walked to the living room and saw Chen Xiaoshuai slumped on the sofa. He said angrily: "Chen Xiaoshuai, can't you go and serve the food?"
"I'm too hungry and can't walk!" Chen Xiaoshuai said weakly.
He was telling the truth. He had no strength left in his body at this time and had exhausted all his energy along the way.
It's not easy to barely support yourself at home.
The only thing on his mind now is eating. If he takes too long, he feels like he will starve to death at any time.
Can Chen Zhimin believe this?
Seeing his son's tiredness, he couldn't help but educate him: "You just go to school, and you're not doing manual labor. Who can you show by pretending like this? Do you know? I'm a migrant worker working on a construction site."
It's hard work, you said you..."
"Okay, Chen Zhimin, do you want to eat yet?"
"Okay, here we go!"
The food was served one after another, and Jiang Guiqin walked out with the last dish.
She looks to be in her thirties, with rosy eyes, a very delicate face, and very fair skin.
You can tell that she was definitely a beauty when she was young.
Jiang Guiqin took off her apron and watched Chen Xiaoshuai frantically shoveling rice into his mouth. She couldn't help but said: "Xiaoshuai, eat slowly, no one will compete with you."
"Have you eaten or not?" Chen Zhimin was just halfway through his sentence when, under Jiang Guiqin's sharp gaze, he cleverly changed the subject:
"Well, maybe today's cooking was good."
"If it tastes good, it tastes good. If it doesn't taste good, it doesn't taste good. What do you mean by "approximately"?"
"Well, no idea, it's really delicious!" Chen Zhimin said with a smile.
Full of desire to survive!
Chen Xiaoshuai doesn't care about anything else, he just opens his cheeks and just eats.
Eating has never felt like such a happy thing.
After eating two bowls of rice, I finally felt better and felt a little energetic.
But, it's not enough.
The couple finished eating first and got off the table.
Jiang Guiqin sat on the sofa and looked at her son at the dinner table from time to time, and whispered: "This is the fifth time. Let me tell you, Lao Yu, does our son have some strange disease?"
"Isn't it a good thing to be able to eat? When I was young, I could eat five bowls of rice. It was no big deal!" Chen Zhimin spat out the circles under his eyes.
A cigarette after a meal is more beautiful than a living god!
"Before, it was poverty and not having enough to eat. Can it be compared now?"
"Yeah, think about it, my family's life was really hard in the past. How many brothers in our family..."
In the smoke, Chen Zhimin recalled and wanted to continue talking, but Jiang Guiqin interrupted him unceremoniously: "I'm telling you about my son, where did you get into it?"
Before Chen Zhimin spoke, Chen Xiaoshuai said: "Mom, there is no food."
"Ah? Aren't you full yet?"
"No, I feel like I'm only 60% full." Chen Xiaoshuai touched his stomach and said.
"Son, let's stop eating, okay? It's not easy to digest if you eat too much at night." Jiang Guiqin was really worried about what happened to him after eating.
"But it's uncomfortable to be hungry!" Chen Xiaoshuai was confused. He didn't know why he could eat so well all of a sudden.
"Then you can have some snacks." Chen Zhimin said.
Jiang Guiqin stood up and said, "Snacks are full of additives, can they be eaten as food? I'll get some noodles."
After eating three more bowls of noodles, Chen Xiaoshuai burped comfortably.
Just right, resurrected with full blood!
At this time, the mobile phone on the table rang. Jiang Guiqin picked it up and took a look: Shi Ruolan!
Could it be that my son got into trouble at school?
Or was he at the bottom of the exam again?
Jiang Guiqin felt uneasy, hesitated, handed the phone to Chen Zhimin, and said: "Here, I'll answer the call for you!"
"Who is it?" Chen Zhimin was stunned. Why did he come to call his wife's cell phone?
When I took it over and looked at it, I secretly exclaimed: It’s bitter!
However, I couldn’t accept this call. I thought about it, pressed the answer button, and spoke in the gentlest tone:
"Hello, Teacher Shi, I am Chen Xiaoshuai's father. Is it Xiaoshuai who is at school..."
This sound contains at least four plus signs of sugar!
Jiang Guiqin trembled all over and even looked at her husband with disgust.
Hey, man!
I really can't see it usually.
"No? You said, I'm listening... um um... okay... thank you." After talking for a while, he ended the call.
Jiang Guiqin said: "What's going on? Are we going to hold a parent-teacher meeting? I don't have time recently, you go ahead!"
Chen Zhiming looked serious and repeated what Teacher Shi said.
Jiang Guiqin jumped up when she heard this: "I said something is wrong with my son!"
I called Chen Xiaoshuai over and checked it carefully, but found nothing wrong.
"Mom, it's okay, I'm just playing for fun." Chen Xiaoshuai said. He saw a banana on the table and took another one to eat.
Jiang Guiqin's worry continued: "No, I have to take my son to the hospital for a check-up. This is probably a strange disease!"
Chen Zhimin also felt that there was something wrong. Normal people couldn't eat like this. He nodded: "I'm going to change clothes." He walked towards the back room.
Chen Xiaoshuai originally had something to do, but when he saw this posture, it was useless to say anything, just go.
…
District hospital.
Jiang Guiqin said politely to the doctor: "Thank you, Dr. Wang, it's really troublesome."
"Director Jiang is too polite. It's nothing. If you have any questions in the future, just come to me at any time." A male doctor in his fifties said with a smile.
This hospital is not far from Chen Xiaoshuai's home, and it is within Jiang Guiqin's jurisdiction. There are some contacts between the two parties, so Jiang Guiqin got to know several old doctors from the hospital.
It's good to have a relationship. In less than an hour, Chen Xiaoshuai's full physical examination was completed and all the data came out.
Totally normal!
Only then did they feel relieved.
Only Chen Xiaoshuai lowered his head, thoughtfully.
Go home, go into your room, and close the door.
Chen Xiaoshuai opened the mathematics textbook, turned to the exercises at the back, did a few questions, and found that there was no difficulty at all!
I tried physics and chemistry again, and there were no problems at all.
I opened the drawer and took out the blank test paper that had been in the drawer for who knows how long.
After completing dozens of questions, I got the answer right, absolutely correct!
The questions that usually seem like a book from heaven can actually be done now!
Moreover, most of the questions can be answered instantly by just looking at them.
It's almost as magical as a computer.
The knowledge in my head is actually true!?
Chen Xiaoshuai was extremely excited and wanted to continue.
This feeling was something he had never experienced in seventeen years!
A bit addictive!
Look at the time, it's already one o'clock, it's time to go to bed, we have to go to school tomorrow.
Chen Xiaoshuai felt a little regretful.
I finally lay down, but I was so excited that I couldn't sleep at all.
I turned over and over again, and for a while I was worried that it was my illusion, so I quickly got up to do the questions and get the answers right.
After a while, I was afraid that my ability would disappear, so I got up again...
Chapter completed!
