Chapter 652: Red Envelopes
Whoosh!
In the early morning, the sound of setting off large fireworks and firecrackers faintly came from the outer suburbs.
Zhang Zian turned over, picked up his phone and checked, it was almost time to get up.
Wechat shows that there are many unread messages. When I click on it, most of them are from the breeding group of Xiao Celery and her class. Since they went to help Xiao Celery and the others rescue the hamster that day, they pulled him into the breeding group so that they could ask him for advice whenever they needed something. However, Zhang Zian did not directly teach them fish, but encouraged them to use books and the Internet to find answers to their problems. He was only responsible for observing and correcting serious mistakes.
The children who have been properly guided are like fish in water, and they are eager to discuss the breeding progress in the group every day, even after Zhang Zian falls asleep, they are still discussing. Whether they are on duty that day or not, they always pay attention to every move of the hamsters.
In this subtle process, their self-reliance and autonomy have been greatly tempered, and they have become good at thinking and asking questions. Maybe they haven't noticed the change in themselves, but Zhang Zian, who is a bystander, can see it clearly , This is the original intention of the school to open the breeding class.
Wang Yaning always regards herself as a class leader, a top student, and a leader, but it is indeed the most suitable person for her to be in charge of dealing with teachers and school staff with a sharp tongue and even a bit of a poisonous tongue. In contrast, Xiao Celery is more like the core and glue of the group, allowing everyone to form a whole, and no one will hate her. Everyone performs their duties, and a capable small team has begun to take shape.
When this holiday is over, they will definitely have amazing growth.
After Wang Yaning's 'negotiation', the air conditioner in the breeding room is now heating and dehumidifying 24 hours a day, so that the hamsters have a warm and dry environment. After eating dried apples every day, their soft stools also returned to normal.
Zhang Zian briefly browsed the group chat records from last night, and confirmed that there is no problem. Those who are on duty now will write a simple 'handover' record in the group at the end of the day, so that those who take over will know what happened yesterday and what should be done that day.
He stuffed the phone back under the pillow, and was hesitating whether to get dressed and get out of bed now or stay warm with the quilt for a while, but unexpectedly found that π had already got up at some point, and was typing in front of the computer intently. Wearing his old cotton coat.
Its pince-nez reflects the light from the computer screen,
It often stopped to read the unnamed book in the very dim morning light, and occasionally covered its mouth with its hand and yawned a lot. It could be seen that it was very sleepy.
Zhang Zian put on his clothes, walked lightly to the desk, and asked in a low voice: "π, are you awake, or just woke up?"
π was too focused, and was obviously startled by the sudden appearance of Zhang Zian, but he recognized him immediately, grinned at him, and then typed: I slept for a while, couldn't sleep, and got up.
Zhang Zian can understand its tension. It is like the college entrance examination for students. Although many people can become talented through other channels, the college entrance examination is still a critical turning point in the fate of students. I remember that he also suffered from insomnia the night before the college entrance examination, but he didn't tell his parents about the insomnia because he didn't want them to worry more.
Today is the twenty-ninth day of the lunar calendar, after midnight it will be New Year's Eve, and π's novels will be available for a fee. This is also a college entrance examination for π, and its importance is no less than that of life.
He understands that it is futile to say not to be nervous at this time, the only way to do it is to stand by its side and support it, just like parents standing outside the examination room in the scorching sun and rain, holding water and food and waiting for him to finish the exam.
So, he didn't say much, and didn't persuade it to rest, and started his daily work day after day.
The turmoil of loving cute pets has not completely passed. The forums in the same city are full of posts seeking pet trading and adoption. There are even people who have picked up unsatisfactory breeds and asked for and picked up other breeds. It's a pet exchange, so if nothing else, basically no guests came to the door today.
When he went out to throw out the garbage, he saw Suzuhara Mai running with Snoopy as usual, and he also saw Xiaozhuang and Tingting going to the snack bar to do volunteer work together. There was a stronger smell of sulfur in the air than usual. Neighbors in the neighborhood greeted each other warmly and politely asked each other if they had bought all the new year's goods. The New Year's atmosphere was more pronounced than usual.
The temperature is slowly rising, and the ice and snow in the corners are melting quietly at a speed invisible to the naked eye. Maybe the dead branches somewhere have spit out the first twigs of buds.
Standing at the door of the store, Zhang Zian recalled the experience of the past half year, feeling a little sad in his heart, but he heard the noise of many elves in the store behind him, as well as the typing sound of π from the room above his head, His heart is more about the longing and anticipation for the future.
"Master! I wish you an early year!"
Wang Qian and Li Kun came from afar carrying fruit and snacks with joy. They will go back to their hometown in the countryside for the New Year tomorrow, and today is their last day of work before the year.
"Happy New Year, finish work earlier today, you guys go back and pack your things, don't you? Be quick with your hands and feet, don't dawdle." He urged with a smile, accepted their presents, and at the same time sent them each A red envelope, "Go back and open it."
After a while, Lu Yiyun also came to work. Even the introverted and cautious she seemed to be infected by the New Year's atmosphere today, with a smile on her face, but from time to time she quietly glanced in a certain direction in the distance. It was her parents. direction of home.
Zhang Zian also stuffed her with a red envelope, "Happy New Year, call home today."
She stared at the red envelope, as if she didn't know what it was, took the red envelope with both hands after a while, and whispered: "This is the first time I have received a red envelope from someone other than my elders... Thank you!"
"Think of it as a year-end award." Zhang Zian said casually, "You have worked hard for several months, and you deserve it."
Since I haven't brought in new pets for a while, the cleaning work in the store is very easy, and it didn't take long to finish it.
"Mr. Store Manager, where are the pregnant Abyssinian cats?" Lu Yiyun asked. She is in charge of taking photos of the soon-to-be mother cats every day, because some customers have pre-ordered kittens that have not yet been born.
"It's been arranged next door." Zhang Zian pointed to the branch next door, "I don't need to take pictures today, I think they may give birth to kittens at any time, so don't disturb them. Go back after you finish your work."
"Master! See you in the next year!" Wang Qian and Li Kun waved goodbye.
"Mr. Store Manager, then I'm leaving, see you in the next year!" Lu Yiyun also said goodbye.
After watching them leave, Zhang Zian sat back on the reclining chair and changed into a comfortable position.
He took out his phone, opened the Qidian app, cleared his throat and said to the elves, "Today, I want to read π's novel to you."
