Chapter 5 Chapter 05

That's a story a year later. But things have to start from the front. Not long after I entered elementary school, I was recognized by Teacher Yu as a little genius.Mr. Yu said that Zhao Liansheng is a genius of abacus.In fact, God knows that I have no interest in abacus at all. I just hold the abacus more like Teacher Yu than others. Teacher Yu likes to hold the abacus with one hand and suddenly shake the abacus forward. You can hear it. There was a crash, and when I looked at it again, the beads in the upper row were all up, and the beads in the lower row were all down. This is Teacher Yu's skill.When I started to learn abacus, Teacher Yu taught us to recite one up one two up two three up three four up four over and over again, which made us very annoyed, so I used the abacus as a toy to play with. Knowing Teacher Yu's ability, one day I accidentally shook it like Teacher Yu, and the two rows of beads separated neatly. When Teacher Yu saw it, he was surprised and happy, so he must say I He is a genius at abacus. From now on, he will stare at me every day and ask me to practice abacus.Teacher Yu said, Zhao Liansheng, you have to study hard and practice hard, practice makes perfect, do you understand? I don’t understand.

You don’t understand now, so the teacher wants to tell you that practice makes perfect, do you understand? I don’t understand. Teacher Yu would not be angry. He was practicing a font at that time. Teacher Yu said that this font is called Yanti, so Teacher Yu wrote four characters in Yanti and hung them in the classroom. Teacher Yu often pointed to these four characters. Tell us this word, students, do you understand the meaning of these four words? I don’t understand. We answered him loudly with one voice.Of course, these four words are still practice makes perfect. Although we sometimes make small troubles with Mr. Yu, we still have to listen to what Mr. Yu says. Mr. Yu insists that I am a little abacus genius, so I will act as a little abacus genius.

There was an abacus competition held in the county, and Mr. Yu took his little genius to the county town.This is what happened a year later. Teacher Yu and I came back by boat. At that time, the road traffic was not well developed, and it was necessary to take a boat when going out in the water network area. I remember that we took the Sujiari flight from Suzhou to Jiaxing, and stopped along the way There are many piers, and our Fenhu Town is one of them. We sat on the long row of chairs along the side of the boat. I looked at Teacher Yu's face. Teacher Yu was very frustrated. I didn't get the award, which surprised Teacher Yu.

When we set off, Teacher Yu was in high spirits.Teacher Yu took out a few sheets of paper from his pocket, found one of them and showed it to me, Zhao Liansheng, take a look, what is it. This is a certificate of merit that reads: Certificate of Award.It is the proof of winning in the abacus competition held in XX.Teacher Yu, did you win the award? Of course it was me, Teacher Yu said. I just read it out: Comrade Yu Laoqi won the tenth place in the Fenhu Township Abacus Competition.It was the seventh place, Teacher Yu corrected me. I looked carefully again, and the tail of the seven characters could no longer be seen clearly. At a rough look, it was the tenth place.
