Chapter 52: New Years Eve
Even among siblings, there is a desire to compare. Although the conditions of Chen Ping's family are not as good as those of Zhou Tao's family, they are more than enough to compare with Chen Xiao.
Seeing that Chen Xiao actually had a desktop computer, Chen Ping felt a little jealous and couldn't believe it.
Chen Xiao said, "Where do I have the money to buy a computer! This is from Deng Chao, a classmate in our class. He is going to a cram school during the winter vacation, so let me play with the computer."
Hearing Chen Xiao say this, Chen Ping was relieved. It turned out that her classmates put it here temporarily.
It's fine if you don't buy a computer. Chen Xiao's family is so poor, where can you buy a computer?
Zhou Tao and Chen Xiao continued to play live, and Chen Ping observed Chen Xiao's room.
Chen Xiao's room was very simple. The bed was not needed after Chen Ping moved, and the desk was peeling.
On the desktop are all kinds of in-class and extra-curricular books, as well as C language and integrated circuits.
Chen Ping said, "Xiaozi, it's time for the college entrance examination. You still have to study hard and stop playing games."
Zhou Tao said, "Oh, Pingping, please let Xiaozi relax. Come, let's have a game, I choose France!"
In 1998, France won the World Cup and Zida became famous.
Zhou Tao's personality is just like his father's, he is competitive.
After getting the handle (which Chen Xiao bought himself), Zhou Tao directly chose the champion France.
Chen Xiao said, "Then I'll choose Xia Guo."
In the live football 3 version, Xia has a lineup such as Gao Feng and Ma Mingyu, which can also be said to be the strongest lineup of Xia Guo for decades.
Zhou Tao was obviously disdainful, otherwise everyone would choose France, Brazil, and the worst would be Italy, Argentina or Germany. Chen Xiao actually chose Xia Guo? !
At the beginning of the game, Zhou Tao originally thought that he would be able to wash Chen Xiao with blood. How could he know that Chen Xiao had given him a five-to-zero score in the ten-minute game, and Chen Xiao was still merciful.
Zhou Tao is restless... Thought it was Chen Xiao's skill too!
How can champion France lose.
"Xiaozi, teach me! How do you play, how do you play the ball, and how to play the Marseille slalom, I have been rubbing the handle for a long time and I can't get it out."
Chen Xiao said calmly: "This thing depends on luck."
Does it really depend on luck?
of course not.
When Chen Xiao was bored at home, he had used modifiers to increase the attributes of everyone in Xia Guo to 99. Goalkeeper Ou Chuliang could be used as a striker. Wouldn't it be cruel to play against Xia Guo?
"Zhou Tao, I'm going out to buy something!" Chen Ling shouted, feeling that Chen Xiao's house was boring, old and dirty.
Zhou Tao had no choice but to put down the handle reluctantly and accompany his prospective daughter-in-law out.
There were only sisters Chen Xiao and Chen Ping in the room.
Chen Ping: "How many marks did you get in the final exam?"
Both are high school seniors, but one is a boutique class in Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School, and the other is in Jiangcheng No. 1 Middle School.
In terms of education quality, Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School is definitely much better.
Chen Xiao said, "Not much."
Chen Ping knew about Chen Xiao's previous grades. His grades in science were good, but his grades were serious, and his English was not good. Every time he dragged his feet, it was not bad to be able to score 550 points.
Chen Ping: "550 points?"
Chen Xiao shook his head.
Chen Ping stopped knowingly, without asking more, it would be more difficult to get a book without 550 points.
"I started going to a training class in Jiangzhou to make up lessons in the third year of junior high school. The teachers are all high-quality teachers from famous schools. They are familiar with the question-setting mode of the college entrance examination and can help to increase the score. Do you want to go?"
Chen Xiao asked, "How much?"
"One hundred dollars a day."
Chen Xiao grinned. It turned out that the involution of education started in 2000. In this era, it was charged 100 yuan a day. It really was only the local tyrants who could afford it.
"Don't go!" Chen Xiao put down the gamepad and said, "It's too expensive! Sister, which subject are you weaker? Tell me, I'll see if I don't have any information to share with you."
Both of them studied science, Chen Xiao was very serious, and he was not sure that the review materials he had fiddled with were suitable for Chen Ping.
Chen Ping didn't think so. What good review materials does a high school in a county-level city have?
"No, no, I have enough in my hand."
At noon, the old Chen family had a simple meal of dumplings, and everyone left their stomachs for the reunion dinner in the evening.
Chen Ling was really not used to staying here. She had a dark face all day long, and she didn't even touch the chopsticks of the old Chen family.
After lunch, I took Zhou Tao to eat out, and in the afternoon, I went to the cinema to watch the just-released "Endless".
Chen Mei was not very satisfied with the performance of her prospective daughter-in-law, but she didn't want to be embarrassed, so she only said, "We don't understand what young people play today."
Lin Hui, of course, saw Chen Ling's dislike of her own tableware, and quickly said, "It's okay, watching a movie is good!"
In the afternoon, Lin Hui replaced all the chopsticks at home with new ones.
At six o'clock in the evening, the Chen family's New Year's Eve dinner officially opened.
All the dishes were prepared by Lin Hui, and Chen Mei and Sun Yan basically didn't go to help and kept eating melon seeds in the living room.
After all, it is his sister's house, and Chen Qiang still took out a long-cherished collection - Jiangcheng Daqu.
Lin Hui took out a few bottles of Coke and Jianlibao.
"Brother-in-law, brother! We are all good today!" Chen Qiang was about to open a drink.
Jiangcheng Daqu is a good wine for Chen Qiang, but for Zhou Hongbing and Chen Jian, it is just a local wine in three counties.
Zhou Hongbing took out the style of a contractor, took out a bottle from the trunk of the car and said, "Let's drink this!"
Zhou Hongbing's wine is Fenjiu, an ordinary yellow-covered glass Fen, although it is only about ten yuan a bottle, but it is much higher-end than Jiangzhou Daqu.
Zhou Hongbing usually dislikes Bofen's low-end, but it is enough for poor relatives Good things are of course given to those who want to help them.
Zhou Hongbing is also stingy enough to take out only one bottle.
Chen Qiang was very embarrassed and took down the Jiangcheng Daqu that he treasured.
After the wine was opened, the atmosphere at the dinner table became lively.
When brothers and sisters are together, there are many topics.
The common topics are mostly family affairs when they were young, the situation of their parents before their death, and then there are children.
After three rounds of drinking, Chen Jian and Sun Yan kept praising their daughter.
Sun Yan: "Pingping is good in everything, but the biggest problem is that she works too hard! She will have to make up for the third day of the Spring Festival. It costs 100 yuan a day!"
"This semester's final exam scored 550 points. The teacher said that there should be no problem with one book. If you work hard, you can take the test."
"Lin Hui, let me tell you, the teacher in the cram school that Pingping went to is really good. If you have improved several points after the training, your Xiaozi can also try it."
Lin Hui quickly waved her hand and said, "It's too expensive, it's too expensive!"
Chen Mei's family is boasting about their economic conditions.
"Last month, we bought a suite for Zhou Tao in the center of Jiangzhou. It cost more than 100,000 yuan! You can't help my mother! You will know that life is not easy when you go out to live."
Sun Yan: "Brother, what about you? I think you've aged a lot this year."
"Ah?" Chen Qiang kept smiling awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
At this time, Yanjing.
Professor Yang and Zhao Lixing of Yenching University did not go home for the Spring Festival. With the efforts of relevant leaders of Yenching University, the relevant departments finally agreed to extend the special recruitment period to early March.
Professor Yang couldn't wait to call the Admissions Office of Jiangcheng Education Bureau.
