Chapter 28 Chapter 28 Basketball

The two turned their heads and saw a tall middle-aged man with beards and beards, wearing a blue national sportswear, with distinct facial features, deep-set eyes, a high nose, and a mouth covered by a beard. Like a minority. Zhu Ziqiang and Yang Yuyan greeted habitually: "Hello, teacher!" The man nodded and said, "Hello, are you a new classmate?" Zhu Ziqiang continued: "My name is Zhu Ziqiang, and her name is Yang Yuyan. She passed the Goujie Primary School exam. Both of us are in Class 24." The man said "Oh": "It's Teacher Wang Xiangtang's class teacher, hehe, my name is Maoxiong, um... I'm your physical education teacher, do you think my surname is weird? It's okay, I'm Hui, everyone secretly Everyone calls me Panda, and you can do the same.”

Zhu Ziqiang had an extremely happy expression on his face, thinking that these ethnic minorities are really interesting and honest!This person is still from the Hui nationality. I heard people say that the surnames of the Hui people are very strange. Some have the surname Sa, some have the surname Hu, and some have the surname Cat. Is there anyone surnamed Dog? "Cat... This cat teacher is good!" Mao Xiong laughed and said: "Many people are not used to meowing at first, but I don't mind. If you feel biting, you can call me Mr. Panda, or you can just omit calling me Mr. Cat."

Yang Yuyan thought this teacher was too funny, so she burst out laughing, quickly covered her mouth with her hands, looked away with a blushing face, Mao Xiong laughed loudly and said, "This...Yang...Yuyan classmate, Don't be shy, let's go downstairs together." Zhu Ziqiang walked beside him and looked at him secretly. Now he is 1.53 meters, but he can only reach Maoxiong's chest. This cat master is probably 1.8 meters! Seeing Zhu Ziqiang sizing up his height, Maoxiong immediately smiled and said, "1.83 meters is a bit short. If I can grow to 1.9 meters, I won't be teaching."

Zhu Ziqiang's thoughts turned, and he immediately thought of: "Is the cat... the teacher majored in basketball?" Maoxiong glanced at him in surprise. In his impression, except for those children in the county primary school who had played basketball, the children from the countryside had never even seen basketball, let alone played it. "Yeah! Can you play basketball?" Zhu Ziqiang shook his head, but his eyes were full of surprise: "Master Mao! I like playing basketball very much, but no one has taught me!" After speaking, he looked at Maoxiong expectantly.The other party smiled and said, "Okay! Every morning from 6:00 am to 7:00 am, I will lead the high school team and the junior high school team to practice. If you want to come here by yourself."

The three of them had already walked downstairs while Maoxiong said to them, "See you later, study hard!" After speaking, he turned and left. Zhu Ziqiang looked at his tall back and was very excited. This must be the most powerful basketball teacher they said!Thinking of learning superb techniques from him and making the pig's head look ashamed, Zhu Ziqiang felt like eating honey. "Ziqiang, it's time for me to go back. Do you want to go shopping in the street?" Zhu Ziqiang shook his head and said, "I'm not going, I'm going back to get ready, and I'll have dinner in the cafeteria in the afternoon."

"Then tomorrow... what will you do tomorrow?" "Tomorrow...haven't thought about it yet? Maybe I'll stay in the dormitory and read a book? Do you have anything to do?" Yang Yuyan blushed and shook her head, "No, then... I'm leaving?" Zhu Ziqiang nodded, what happened to Yuyan?I always blush today, hey, this little girl!In his heart, Yuyan has long been his... daughter-in-law!But this is just a thought in his heart, anyway, no one can touch Yuyan, otherwise he will definitely go crazy! Thinking about getting up early to practice basketball tomorrow, Yang Yuyan turned around and left first, Yang Yuyan sighed faintly, and left alone in great disappointment.

Back in the dormitory, there were three more people inside. They were all dressed in poor families. Their clothes had ripped collars and sleeves. They were not tall, but they were relatively strong. One of them had black and white eyes, and the eyeballs were black. Gotta shine. Zhu Ziqiang couldn't help but look a few more times, and the eyes of the three of them turned to other places together, not meeting his gaze, Zhu Zi was secretly amused, he had seen a lot of these simple and honest peasant children. "Hello, my name is Zhu Ziqiang. I'm from Goujie Primary School. Where are you three?" Zhu Ziqiang knew very well that if he didn't ask, these three people would never take the initiative to tell him where they are, because these people are usually very passive. , Maybe it is caused by living habits, when getting along with strangers, I always face it with a guarded attitude, of course there is also shyness and timidity in it.

Just as Zhu Ziqiang guessed, the guy with dark eyes lowered his eyebrows and said, "We are from Tianyuan Township." Zhu Ziqiang smiled wryly, Tianyuan is the most remote township from the county seat. "What's your name?" "Qiu Zhiheng." "What about the two of them?" "The one in yellow is called Hu Daping, and this is Luo Chuancai." Zhu Ziqiang has always kept a smile on his face. He grew up in the countryside, and he is very familiar with how to communicate with these people: "Have you signed up?" The three nodded, and Zhu Ziqiang said again: "Did Teacher Wang lead you to sign up to find a dormitory?"

The three nodded again, and Zhu Ziqiang couldn't bear it any longer, and burst out laughing: "Three classmates! I'm also a student, just like you, so please don't act like a respondent?" Qiu Zhiheng smiled embarrassedly: "We...hehe, nice to meet you!" Zhu Ziqiang said with a chuckle, "Have the beds been made? Do you want me to help? Stay a little longer, and we'll go to the cafeteria for dinner. By the way, you haven't received your new books yet, have you?" Being asked so many questions all at once, the three of them shook their heads for a while and nodded for a while. As soon as Zhu Ziqiang finished speaking, the four of them looked at each other and burst into laughter together.

This smile finally made the atmosphere much more easy-going. Zhu Ziqiang liked these three people, especially Qiu Zhiheng. Perhaps among the three, his family's conditions were better. The other two kept silent, with smiles on their faces. But his eyes were full of envy. The four of them chatted for a while and reported their ages to each other. Hu Daping was the oldest at fourteen years old in the genus of pig, Luo Chuancai was thirteen years old in the genus of rat, and Qiu Zhiheng was also in the genus of rat. People these days take pride in their age. When Zhu Ziqiang said that he was a tiger, the three of them immediately laughed very happily. They didn't feel jealous at all because he was young and good at reading. Instead, they thought he was a little brother. Zhu Ziqiang Depressed, if you have ambitions, you will not be old, and if you have no ambitions, you will live a hundred years!

Qiu Zhiheng's tone changed immediately: "Zhu Ziqiang, we are all older than you. If there is anything in the future... such as washing clothes, let us help you." Zhu Ziqiang shook his head and said, "No, no, I have to go home once a week, just take it home and wash it!" There were three windows in the dormitory, and it seemed that the original old classroom was remodeled. The four of Zhu Ziqiang occupied the innermost two beds by the window. Qiu Zhiheng went to bed with Zhu Ziqiang, and Luo Chuancai went to bed with Hu Daping.The two couples sat up and down on the bed and started chatting. Zhu Ziqiang took out the textbooks and showed them something new. The three guys were like flies staring at the eggs, each holding a book and started flipping through it. Zhu Ziqiang smiled and said: "Don't worry, you can go to Teacher Wang later to get the book first, and read it slowly when you come back. You will have plenty of time to read it later. By the way, do the three of you know how to play basketball?" Qiu Zhiheng said: "No, but I really like it, will you know it? If you do, teach me?" Zhu Ziqiang said: "I met a physical education teacher today. He is Huizi. His surname is Mao, and his name is Maoxiong. Hehe, he is 1.83 meters tall! He is tall and strong. He is a gym teacher and a basketball major. He told me Every morning at six o'clock their team will practice, and then we will go and practice together!" Qiu Zhiheng said with some hesitation: "This...you won't want it?" Zhu Ziqiang tilted his head, feeling a little funny in his heart, but it's hard to tell, thin-skinned is not a bad thing. "Don't worry about it, the cat master told me personally, go and have a look tomorrow morning, if they don't welcome, we will practice by ourselves." As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Daping's stomach groaned. The three of them froze for a moment and laughed in unison. Zhu Ziqiang shouted: "Let's go, let's get some food! Today... it's us It’s my first meal.” At first I wanted to say that I was treating guests today, but when I thought about the situation at home, treating guests is a luxury, I stopped the next words in time, and sighed in my heart: revolution is not treating guests to dinner! The size of the cafeteria is small, similar to the kitchen on Dog Street for weddings and funerals, with a few big pots and pots, and all the utensils here are oversized. Zhu Ziqiang wrinkled his nose a few times, and there was a bad smell in the air. Since the students in the high school and the second and third grades were not going back to school until the day after tomorrow, there were not many meals. Zhu Ziqiang took a peek. The other three Standing in front of the rice, hesitating for a while, and then walked resolutely to the cornmeal meal. Each person took ten cents of rice, which was ample. Pressed a few times. Zhu Ziqiang calmed down, and followed the three of them to cook and cook. He basically ate rice at home, except for the occasional steamed cornmeal that he adjusted, and he basically didn't eat it.To make this cornmeal rice delicious, you must have enough experience. Mastering the water and heat is the key. If there is too little water, the rice will be too dry and it will be very uncomfortable to swallow. Looking at the yellow cornmeal in the rice bowl, there was obviously bran in it, Zhu Ziqiang sighed, and followed the three of them out while eating.The cornmeal was like sand and made his throat itchy. Zhu Ziqiang couldn't swallow it anymore after eating a third of it, so he had to go back to the cafeteria again and make a cabbage soup to soak in it. Make a layer of chaff.Zhu Ziqiang couldn't stop smiling wryly. He used to hear the pig's head scolding the school cafeteria at home, and he thought that the pig's head took the opportunity to ask the family for money. That night, there were only Zhu Ziqiang and four people in the dormitory. The electric lights were dim, and they were only turned on for one hour from eight o'clock to nine o'clock. Fortunately, Hu Daping prepared a kerosene lamp. They are full of endless expectations for junior high school. Everyone is imagining what will happen in the next time. When the other three people heard that Zhu Ziqiang did not plan to enter the middle school, they were all surprised. The university is for them. It is unattainable to say that if you can graduate from a technical secondary school and start working as soon as possible, then you will be able to have an iron rice bowl for the rest of your life without worrying about food and clothing. The night outside the window was as dark as splashed ink, and Zhu Ziqiang heard that the other three had fallen asleep, but his mind was still churning. Since the third grade of elementary school, under the indoctrination of Yang Shaohua, he has Make it your goal to go to college!But seeing the pig's large intestine being fat and panting, and the endless worry in his mother's eyes, Zhu Ziqiang was suddenly shaken. Maybe it's not a bad thing to go to a technical secondary school first.However, the competition between technical secondary schools and teachers is also extremely cruel. There are so many junior high school graduates in the county every year, the admission rate is almost 20:1. There are only three to five places in the county. Teacher Yang is right. There is a single-plank bridge in front of you. If you want not to fall into the water, you have to work hard!Thinking of this, Zhu Ziqiang secretly gritted his teeth and decided to temporarily give up the cultivation of Cunjin. After all, these kung fu skills can't make money to support the family. He just needs to keep practicing Qinglong Qijin every night. After all, he was a little unwilling to completely abandon these skills, and he had already formed a habit.
