Chapter 1632 The Deaf-Mute Xiao Zi Meets Han Shu in the Bookstore
Zhu Chao didn't get along well with Zhou Chen. When he heard Zhou Chen said he would not participate in the singing competition, he had no intention of persuading him. He just said he would tell Teacher Gao. Zhou Chen just replied, "It's up to you."
"Zhou Chen, you really don't want to participate in the singing competition?"
Cheng Miaomiao and Hu Qiumin didn't understand why Zhou Chen didn't participate in the singing competition, especially Cheng Miaomiao. She also strongly promised to let Qiang Xiaowa participate. In the end, Qiang Xiaowa was allowed to participate, but Zhou Chen didn't participate.
"Not participating, it's meaningless."
Hu Qiumin gave a thumbs up: "You are awesome. If you don't want to participate, don't participate. I guess Gao Feiyang will definitely come to you."
She was right. After Zhu Chao told Gao Feiyang about the situation, Gao Feiyang specifically found Zhou Chen to ask about it, and told Zhou Chen earnestly that this singing competition was about the collective honor of the class.
He thought Zhou Chen's Mandarin was very good and well-known in the school, so he wanted Zhou Chen to be the leader, but who knew that Zhou Chen was unwilling to participate.
However, Zhou Chen was determined, and no matter how Gao Feiyang persuaded him, it was useless, which made Gao Feiyang feel defeated.
Ever since the previous fight, he knew that he, as the head teacher, could not handle Zhou Chen. Not to mention him, even the dean of teaching, Xiao Fang, said that he was not convinced by Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen was unwilling to participate, and he really had no way to force him.
So, when others were practicing seriously for the singing competition, Zhou Chen was very leisurely.
Li Si had already arrived in Beijing and went to the hospital. He was waiting in line for examination these days. It would take about a week to come back.
On the basketball court, although Zhou Chen only used one-tenth of his skills, he still became the brightest boy on the basketball court, especially after showing a dunk, he ignited the whole court and received countless admiring eyes.
Playing basketball with these high school students is like adults playing house in kindergarten. Although you can't get exercise, it's still interesting and fun.
After playing for a while and relaxing a little, Zhou Chen stopped bullying these kids. After coming down from the court, he saw Cheng Miaomiao holding a little girl sitting next to him and watching, so he walked over.
"Zhou Chen, I really didn't realize that you are so good at basketball and can even dunk."
Cheng Miaomiao doesn't understand basketball, but she also knows that dunking is not an easy thing. At least she hasn't heard of anyone in Linqi No. 2 who can do it.
Zhou Chen just smiled lightly, and then his eyes fell on the little girl in Cheng Miaomiao's arms.
"Who is this child?"
"It's Yuan Shanqing's sister, Xiao Zi. Yaya and Yuan Shanqing went out together for something, so let me watch Xiao Zi for a while."
Zhou Chen sat down next to Cheng Miaomiao and looked at Yuan Shanzi in her arms.
Yuan Shanqing and her sister are both people with tragic fates in this drama. The difference is that Xiao Zi is luckier than Yuan Shanqing. Yuan Shanqing knows everything that happened and endures it silently, while Xiao Zi knows nothing because she is young and has no memory.
After a series of subsequent events, she became one of the happiest people.
Although Yuan Shanqing handed Xiao Zi over to the Cheng family for Xiao Zi's sake, it was a bit shocking that her sister called her sister-in-law.
But judging from the situation at the time, handing Xiao Zi over to the Cheng family was indeed the best choice and the best for Xiao Zi.
Cheng Miaomiao hugged Xiao Zi and suddenly said, "Zhou Chen, you know how to treat a disease, right? I want to ask you, I found that Xiao Zi seemed to be a little bit wrong. No matter what we said to her, she ignored us. She didn't talk except crying. What's going on?"
Zhou Chen naturally knew what was going on with Xiao Zi, but he still pretended to touch Xiao Zi, looked at her for a while, and then suddenly clapped his hands in her ears.
"Pa!"
"Ah, what are you doing, you scared me." Cheng Miaomiao was startled by Zhou Chen's sudden clapping.
"Even you were startled, but look at Xiao Zi, did she react?"
Cheng Miaomiao was stunned. Yes, Zhou Chen just clapped his hands beside Xiao Zi's ears, and the sound scared her, but Xiao Zi didn't react at all. This is very wrong.
"What's going on? Is she really having some problems?"
"Well, but it's probably not an intellectual problem, but an ear problem. She can't hear the sound."
"Deaf-mute?" Cheng Miaomiao blurted out.
Zhou Chen nodded and said, "Almost. I don't know if it's congenital deafness or acquired deafness, but it can be confirmed that she is indeed deaf. Miaomiao, you should tell Yaya and Yuan Shanqing about her situation as soon as possible. Deafness is not incurable. The younger the child is, the more chances there are for treatment."
When Cheng Miaomiao heard this, she suddenly became very nervous and stood up in a hurry.
"I'll go find Yaya and Yuan Shanqing now."
Looking at Cheng Miaomiao running away in a hurry, Zhou Chen smiled. It seems that Cheng Miaomiao's impatience will never change in her life. She ran away as soon as she said she would.
After Cheng Miaomiao found Cheng Yaya and Yuan Shanqing, she immediately told them what Zhou Chen said. Cheng Yaya and Yuan Shanqing were both shocked, especially Yuan Shanqing. She had taken care of Xiao Zi for so long, but she never thought that Xiao Zi was deaf.
So the three of them discussed and did not go to find Zhou Chen, but ran directly to the hospital and found Cheng Pengfei.
When Cheng Pengfei heard about this, he was also very surprised, but Zhou Chen had reminded Li Si of colon cancer before, so he took it very seriously this time and immediately arranged for Xiao Zi to have a check-up tomorrow.
The result of the examination was as Zhou Chen said, it was not an intellectual problem, but deafness. After asking, Cheng Pengfei found out that Xiao Zi could hear sounds when she was a child, but she had a high fever before, and after that she was a little different from before. It was different. Now that I think about it, I realized that it was because I couldn't hear the sound.
Yuan Shanqing burst into tears after saying this in the Cheng family. Cheng Pengfei was filled with emotion after hearing this. Even Jia Daiyu, who had always had no good impression of Yuan Shanqing, started crying and cursed loudly after learning about the past situation of Yuan Shanqing and Xiaozi. When Yuan Yong got up, the scolding was unpleasant.
Li Si stayed in the capital for a week and finally came back happily. The results of the re-examination were very good and no problems were found. He asked him to go for another re-examination in half a year.
"What, you went to Qiang Xiaowa's house? How could you do this? What are we? We are a whole. How could you take advantage of my absence and act without authorization? No, I don't agree. I have to go there too. ”
During class on Monday, when Li Si learned that Zhou Chen and Hu Qiumin had gone to Qiang Xiaowa’s house with Cheng Miaomiao last week to see the boat and the sea, he was immediately very angry and loudly accused Zhou Chen and the others, saying that they were not Be loyal and so on.
After returning to his seat, he spoke directly to Qiang Xiaowa and told him that he would go to his house after school today and also go to his house for dinner, which made Qiang Xiaowa stunned.
Under Li Si's strong request, Zhou Chen and others could only accompany him in the evening, and once again went to the fishing village on the other side of the bridge, specially bringing their cameras.
"Wow!"
Li Si came here, stood on the boat, looked at the sea in front of him, and shouted loudly.
He has also been to the capital and seen many tourist attractions, but the sea in front of him is different from those tourist attractions, stretching as far as the eye can see.
"Come, stand together and I will take pictures of you."
Hu Qiumin took out her camera, asked Zhou Chen and others to stand together, and then took pictures. They took turns taking pictures, changing countless poses, and they were very happy.
At Li Si's request, the four of them stayed at Qiang Xiaowa's house to eat and do homework together in the evening, and Cheng Miaomiao taught Qiang Xiaowa Mandarin.
As soon as Li Si heard about the singing competition, he was more active than anyone else and insisted on participating. He had already signed up with Zhu Chao. Counting Li Si, Zhou Chen was the only one in the class to withdraw voluntarily.
Qiang Xiaowa's grandfather was so happy when he saw so many classmates coming to his home to study and play with Qiang Xiaowa. He cooked a lot of seafood for dinner in the evening, and prepared one for Zhou Chen and the other four when he left. Bags of seafood.
Living by the sea, for them, the most valuable and least valuable things are seafood. It is valuable because it is the only thing they can get rid of, and it is not valuable because they have too many of these things here.
Naturally, Zhou Chen and the other four would not dislike it, especially Li Si, who was so happy that he held the bag with a happy smile on his face.
"I didn't expect that this side of the bridge would be so interesting. Shall we come back next time?"
Cheng Miaomiao laughed and said, "Look at you like that. Aren't you still very unhappy when I helped Xiaowa before? Now that you've accepted a few things from them, it's different?"
Li Si snorted: "I'm not happy that you're embarrassed. Besides, who am I, Li Si, that I can be bribed with such a small amount? You look down on me too much."
"hehe."
"Stop hehe, do you like the gifts I bought for you from the capital?"
When he went to the capital this time, Li Si specially brought gifts to Zhou Chen and the three of them. They were not very valuable. He gave Hu Qiumin a few genuine song tapes, and he gave Zhou Chen a super large puzzle. What she brought to Cheng Miaomiao was authentic Beijing roast duck, Daoxiangcun pastries, and a pair of cloth shoes.
Zhou Chen really didn't want to talk to him anymore, so he bought him a gift and treated him differently. This guy was a true lustful person who had a woman but no brothers.
It’s another weekend, and now the weather has gradually cooled down. The temperature difference between morning and evening is relatively high, so you need to wear a jacket.
Zhou Chen had a rare early sleep. When he got up, he found that there were milk, eggs and steamed buns on the table. He ate them all, changed his clothes, and went out.
He wanted to buy a computer. Computers in this era are still relatively expensive. He had enough money to buy one, but he didn't want to spend all his savings, nor did he want to ask his uncle, aunt and others for money.
The small casino in the game arcade was raided, leaving him with no way to make quick money for the time being.
He actually has many ways to make money, but he doesn't want to expend too much energy. His current high school life is so comfortable, and he doesn't want it to end early.
Wandering on the road, he came to the bookstore before he knew it. He walked directly into the bookstore, planning to buy two more books and go back to read them.
While he was selecting books, a beautiful figure suddenly came into view. His eyes lit up and he walked over.
Han Shu was reading so engrossed that she didn't notice that there was someone else beside her. After several minutes, she looked away from the content in the book. When she turned her head, she saw Zhou Chen standing next to her.
"Ah, you want to scare me to death. When did you come here? How come you don't make any sound when you walk?"
"You were so absorbed in watching that you didn't hear it."
Looking at Zhou Chen in front of her, Han Shu couldn't help but think of the first time they met because of the bookstore. After so long, she didn't expect to meet again in the bookstore.
"Are you here to buy books?"
"Well, Teacher Han is here to buy books too?"
"Read, but also buy. There is a seat over there, let's sit there."
"Okay."
Zhou Chen picked a book, and then went to the table next to him with Han Shu and sat down.
"Legend of Chu Liuxiang, is this what you are going to buy?"
Han Shu was shocked when she saw the book Zhou Chen took over. She thought Zhou Chen was going to buy some textbooks or exercise books, but he took a martial arts novel.
Zhou Chen nodded and said, "Yes, although I have read it before, I can still gain something different by reading it again."
Chu Liuxiang has always been Zhou Chen's favorite martial arts novel protagonist. If you have to give a reason, it is handsome, invincible, and succubus.
Xiao Li Feidao has become a thing of the past, and Chu Liuxiang is no longer seen in the world!
I don't know how many teenagers admire and pursue Chu Liuxiang. Zhou Chen really liked this novel protagonist when he was a child.
"Your first priority now is to study. You are in the second year of high school, and there is still more than a year before the college entrance examination."
"I know, but it's better to combine work and rest. What's more, I am quite confident in the college entrance examination. I will go to Shanghai in the future."
"So confident?"
"Of course."
Han Shu smiled: "Then I am really looking forward to seeing you in Shanghai."
Zhou Chen also smiled and said: "You will get what you want."
The two sat together, reading books together, and stopped talking.
Unconsciously, it was noon, and Zhou Chen glanced at the sun outside.
"It's noon, Teacher Han, you treated me to steak last time, today I will treat you to steak, how about it?"
"You treat me to steak, how much money do you have?"
Looking at Zhou Chen like an adult, actually taking the initiative to treat herself to a meal, Han Shu's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a sweet smile.
"It must be enough to treat a steak."
"Let me treat you, how can a teacher let students treat, I will treat you, let's go."
Han Shu picked up the book, put on her bag, and walked to the cashier first.
After having lunch with Han Shu, Han Shu went back to school, and Zhou Chen also went home. However, before he even got close to his home, he was stopped by Li Si and Cheng Miaomiao at the door of the apartment building.
"Zhou Chen, where have you been? No one answered the phone at home, and no one opened the door when I went to your house to look for you."
Zhou Chen raised the book in his hand: "I'm going out to buy two books to read. What's the matter? What's the urgent matter?"
"I have something to tell you."
Zhou Chen took them back to his home, and then Li Si talked about something.
It turned out to be about Cheng Yaya and Yuan Shanqing. Yuan Shanqing's sister Xiaozi was diagnosed as deaf and dumb. She wanted to have surgery and cochlear implants, but it would cost a lot of money. Yuan Shanqing had no choice but to drop out of school and work to earn money for Xiaozi's surgery.
Just yesterday, Yuan Shanqing left the oil field base by car and temporarily entrusted Xiaozi to Grandma Chen who had been taking care of her.
Cheng Yaya received a letter from Yuan Shanqing this morning and learned about the situation. Then he went to Grandma Chen's house with Cheng Miaomiao to inquire about the situation. Through Yuan Shanqing's phone call, he learned the location where Yuan Shanqing called, and then he went to Weihai impatiently, wanting to bring Yuan Shanqing back.
After listening to this, Zhou Chen couldn't help but sigh: "Tsk tsk, the power of love is really great, it makes people risk their lives."
Cheng Miaomiao said dissatisfiedly: "Zhou Chen, what nonsense are you talking about, Yaya and Yuan Shanqing are just classmates, there is no love or anything like that, they are only sixteen years old."
"What's wrong with sixteen years old? The love at this time is from the heart. I don't believe that Yaya and Yuan Shanqing are just classmates. Li Si, Hu Zi, do you believe it?"
Li Si and Hu Yue shook their heads at the same time and said in unison: "I don't believe it either."
"See, the eyes of the masses are sharp."
"Oh, I didn't come to you to talk about these things. You give me some advice on what to do about this matter. I'm worried that Yaya won't be able to come back at night. It will be bad if my parents find out."
Cheng Miaomiao looked worried. Since Cheng Yaya left in the morning, she has been uneasy and restless, afraid that her parents will find out, and even more afraid that Cheng Yaya will get into trouble.
