Chapter 24 A Clear Stream in Street Stall Literature

After returning from the third uncle's house, the atmosphere in the house suddenly became tense.

The couple ignored each other, Wu Binghua squatted in front of the porch, did not enter the house, the scarlet cigarette butts flickered on and off in the night, accompanied by the sound of "snapping" mosquitoes from time to time.

More than half an hour later, Zhang Huilan put on clean clothes and went out with a basket on her arm.

Wu Tao is playing outside with his two children. Seeing this, he chased him to the road behind the village in one breath.

"Mom, wait."

Zhang Huilan stopped, sullenly, holding her breath.

"Are you going to borrow money from my uncle's house?"

"Hmm!" Zhang Huilan poked her neck and said, "I just want to prove to your dad that my brother is better than his brother! Reliable at critical times!"

Hey, between couples, what's the comparison? Wu Tao was really speechless.

But I still have to persuade, otherwise my mother will borrow the money back, not only will it not go well, but it will ignite the explosive keg of my father, causing trouble for the whole family.

"Mom, are you going to the old uncle's house like this? When the aunt sees you like this, will you have to tell me about the embarrassment that Dad made at the third uncle's house?"

"So what, your third uncle and aunt can do it, and you are not allowed to talk about it? Who..."

"Okay, okay, mom, let me tell you, if you borrow money like this, my aunt won't lend you a dime."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Huilan who was bluffing suddenly fell silent. After careful consideration, it seemed that this was the truth.

"Tao, you are right. Mom is so angry and confused. Don't worry, I promise to talk about it later and borrow the money back."

"Just this is not enough."

"Then what should I do? You child, do you underestimate your uncle and aunt too much?"

Wu Tao patiently explained, "Mom, it has nothing to do with underestimation. Even if you don't talk about Dad's embarrassment at the third uncle's house for a while, Auntie must already know about it."

Zhang Huilan clapped her hands anxiously, "That's right, there was such a big commotion just now, the young and old must have already spread the word about it. Son, what should we do?"

"This matter is also simple, Mom, as long as we express enough sincerity."

Zhang Huilan lifted the grass eggs under the floral cloth in the basket and said, "Isn't that not enough sincerity?"

Wu Tao brought back a basket of straw eggs, handed it to Xiao Jiang, turned to his old lady and said, "The more you are at this time, the more you have to show the posture of being a proprietress. Isn't the farmhouse catering just short of a chef? This job is not for the old man." No way, you tell my aunt that as long as our farmhouse can be run, my uncle will earn 800 per month!"

"Tao, isn't 800 yuan a bit much? People in the city can't get this money when they go to work."

"Oh, Mom, not much! I'm in charge of this matter."

"That's good, if you don't say much, you won't say much." Zhang Huilan was so happy that she straightened her back unknowingly.

Seeing that he made his old lady happy, Wu Tao hit the rails while it was hot: "By the way, Mom, can you talk to Dad after borrowing the money? The family is in harmony and everything is going well. Our business has not started yet, and you two are arguing upside down." Yes, it's not a good sign."

As soon as Zhang Huilan heard that it was related to business, Zhang Huilan paid special attention to it, so she smiled and said, "Okay, I understand. You take the two children back, and I will come back as soon as I go."

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, someone came to the house.

Wu Tao got up sleepily, only to realize that it was all his father's team.

Three carpenter apprentices, plus a few distant uncles as bricklayers. Wu Tao called over one by one, watching them with Yipinmei sandwiched between them, full of enthusiasm and joy.

Seeing that the preparatory work for the Nongjiale Manor Project was on the right track, Wu Tao returned to school.

The countdown next to the blackboard has changed to '16' days, and the atmosphere in the classroom is becoming more and more tense.

After two weeks of intensive composition training, Wu Tao has adapted to the rapid composition of various subjects. The batch of compositions he practiced and wrote were even positively affirmed by the vicious old class, and they were explained in class as model essays.

Therefore, there is only the last missing item - English listening.

As a reborn person, he is extremely proficient in the application of English. Daily listening, speaking, reading and writing are no problem at all.

What surprised him was that today's listening pronunciation is mainly based on British pronunciation. This is very different from the American pronunciation he is used to.

In addition, in order to increase the difficulty, continuous reading, rising and falling tones, and even some slang accents are specially incorporated.

This is deliberately making things difficult for people!

But there is no way, Huaxia's high school entrance examination and college entrance examination selection mechanism is to artificially set the difficulty threshold to form differentiated competition.

After thinking for a long time, Wu Tao had an idea in his mind.

English listening is An Rong's strong point, so I have to ask her for advice on this matter.

When I came back to my senses, I saw Zhao Li walking in with the latest issue of bosom friend. Not only her, there are several books in the classroom, which are being circulated and watched frantically.

Thinking that my article has finally become a typeface, it would be a lie to say that I am not excited.

Even though this magazine will be frantically vomited and criticized in the future, and even dubbed as an outstanding representative of street stall literature.

But it can't stand it being in the limelight at the moment, and it is wildly sought after and obsessively loved by teenagers who are eager for life experience and curiosity, and even become a sacred "enlightenment" reading in the hearts of some teenagers.

After a burst of friction, Zhao Li squeezed into the seat inside.

Fanning the breeze with her slender hands, she curled up the hair on her temples: "It's dangerous, this is the last book, and if it's later, I won't be able to buy it."

"So tight?"

"Of course!" Zhao Li calmed down, turned to the cover article, and read it intently.

A few minutes later, Zhao Li said in surprise: "There are still awards? I vote for your article as the best in this issue, okay?"

Wu Tao waved his hand and said, "It's not very hopeful, you'd better not waste the postage."

"The bonus is 6000, no matter what!"

At the same time, Shen Bohong left the Academic Affairs Office and walked towards the class. Passing by a blackboard newspaper on the way, his sharp eyes swept over it, and he immediately let out a cry of surprise.

This topic is not unfamiliar to him. Wu Tao told him not long ago, and his voice was still in my ears. So I stopped to read it, and after a while, I finished reading it, and couldn't help but groaned: "This passage is really novel, and it adds a lot of color to the whole prose."

Finally, the eyes fell on the inscription: Excerpted from the May 1995 issue of "Zhiyin".

Actually excerpted from this kind of magazine? Shen Bohong felt a little regretful. In his opinion, as the favorite novelty hunting magazine for housewives, Zhiyin's articles did not have much literary quality to speak of.

Its biggest selling point is that it records extramarital affairs, homicides, and tragic past events of celebrities in the form of documentary literature reports, so as to meet the current needs of all living beings to spy on other people's private lives, and then achieve the purpose of self-psychological healing.

Now that this article is published, it immediately adds a lot of color to this local stall literature! Speaking of which, this article can be called a clear stream in street stall literature.

Thanks to the single master "Greed of Original Sin"!

Thank you for your votes, everyone.
