If there is one thing that affects Chen Qiao the most on rainy days, it is that his mother takes out the children’s rain boots from the cupboard and forces him to wear them, lest he catch a cold from playing in the water.
Although he could step into puddles hard after putting on rain boots, Chen Qiao didn’t like wearing rain boots before because they felt a bit stuffy and the rubber material was not very comfortable and awkward.
In addition, he was afraid of being laughed at by his classmates because he was still wearing rain boots in the sixth grade.
When I was a child, I cared so much about other people’s looks and comments that I didn’t wear rain boots on rainy days and didn’t wear long johns in winter.
Chen Qiao finally put on his rain boots obediently, otherwise his sister and mother would never let him go out.
Since he couldn’t refuse, he decided to enjoy the unconditional love given by his family.
Chen Qiao put the sandals he usually wore in a plastic bag and put them in his schoolbag.
He would change into them at school and wear them as indoor shoes.
It was perfect!
He was such a clever little guy.
After the rain, the weather turned a little cooler, so mom took out his school uniform jacket and put it on him.
On the way to school on a rainy day, many naughty boys would spin their umbrellas around, swinging the water droplets from the umbrellas and splashing them all around, shouting the names of their second-year special moves like “Heavy Rain of Pear Blossom Needles” and “Flying Leaf Sharp Knife”, and some would even fight in the rain with long-handled umbrellas as spears or shields.
Because of the rain, Chen Qiao and Wu Xinyu moved their guard duty from the school gate to the tunnel under the office building, which allowed them to be closer when checking hygiene.
However, the students who cleaned the playground had a miserable time.
They had to hold umbrellas and sweep the floor with wet brooms at the same time.
It took them a long time to sweep up a small piece of garbage, and finally they found that picking up garbage was faster.
The classroom on a rainy day felt wet and dirty, with water stains and shoe prints everywhere.
Some people put their umbrellas outside the classroom or hang them on the windowsill in the corridor, while others bring their umbrellas into the classroom for fear that they will be stolen or taken by mistake.
Chen Qiao watched the rain hitting the window.
The water droplets condensed into water beads and slowly slid down the smooth surface of the glass, leaving a winding water mark.
Even though the windows were closed, rain still seeped in a little bit through the gaps in the windows.
During the break, Lin Na still came to ask questions.
Seeing that Lin Na was standing, Wu Xinyu felt bad and stood up to offer her seat, saying, “Lin Na, please sit down. The next class is a self-study class. Let’s change seats. You sit here and I’ll sit in your seat.”
When Wu Xinyu said this sentence, she felt it was tongue-twisting, as it didn’t make any sense.
“Thanks.”
Lin Na sat stiffly in her original seat, feeling both familiar and unfamiliar.
At the same time, she felt that Wu Xinyu was a really good person, beautiful and kind, like an angel.
Well, Chen Qiao is also a good person, even better than Wu Xinyu.
Chen Qiao was inexplicably given a good guy card.
“You’re welcome. This is your seat. You don’t need to greet me in the future. Just sit down whenever you want.”
Wu Xinyu did not go back to her original seat immediately, but leaned on the desk to read the latest chapter written by Chen Qiaogang, studying.
I don’t know which boarding student or someone else saw Chen Qiao and her sharing an umbrella on the street, and then everyone in both classes knew about it.
What a big mouth.
As soon as the preparatory bell rang, Wu Xinyu closed her notebook and was about to go back to her original seat, but she didn’t expect the math teacher to come with a pile of printed papers.
Wu Xinyu instinctively sat back in her seat.
As a good girl, she would not run around in the classroom in front of the teacher.
Lin Na, who was caught in the middle, panicked instantly, unable to move forward or backward.
She was not good at math and was most afraid of the bald math teacher.
She just wanted to find a hole to hide in, lowered her head and silently said to herself: You can’t see me, you can’t see me.
The math teacher naturally noticed the strange combination of three people at one table and asked in his loud voice, “Why are you three sitting together?”
Lin Na’s body shuddered, and she buried her head even lower, as if she had done something wrong.
Her hands and feet were shaking, her teeth were chattering, and she was extremely nervous.
She didn’t care about being scolded, but she was afraid of implicating Chen Qiao and Wu Xinyu, two good friends she had made with great difficulty.
Chen Qiao and Wu Xinyu, who were sitting on the same stool, could feel Lin Na’s strong shock.
Chen Qiao held her little hand under the table, rubbed her palm, and said to the math teacher confidently: “We are teaching Lin Na math.”
I’m still studying, or learning math, so I’ll be fine.
“Well, we are reviewing what Teacher Linna said in class today…” Wu Xinyu cooperated.
“Okay, very good. Students who are good at studying should help students who are lagging behind within their ability. Others should also learn from Chen Qiao, Xinyu and Lin Na. Lin Na’s learning attitude is also worth learning. Many students are not stupid, but they just don’t study hard. When they encounter problems they don’t understand, they are too embarrassed to ask classmates and teachers. I won’t name them, you know it yourself.”
Because Chen Qiao and Lin Na had been deskmates until last week, and now they were just sitting closer, it didn’t seem like there was anything wrong with them.
“Have you finished your math homework for today? I’ll start explaining the questions now, everyone turn around.”
“Huha…” Seeing that the math teacher had started the class, Lin Na let out a long sigh and patted her flat chest.
The whole class turned to the back blackboard in unison.
Chen Qiao also gave the math teacher a little face and turned back to writing his novel, so as not to attract the math teacher’s attention because of his eccentricity and make Lin Na’s little heart unable to bear it.
It was still a bit crowded for three people to sit on one bench, especially since Chen Qiao deliberately leaned to the middle and took advantage of the little girl.
What a beast he was.
Chen Qiao thought it would be great if he was the one in the middle, with girls on both sides, enjoying a happy life.
However, there was still a short way to go to achieve this goal, so he had to hurry up and complete this small goal this summer.
The rain from afternoon to evening is always accompanied by thunder and lightning.
Timid girls will be frightened and there are even some pretentious girls who deliberately scream to attract attention.
If there was a sudden power outage, the lights in the classroom went out, and the light was dim and the blackboard could not be seen clearly, the whole class would cheer.
The power supply in rural areas was not very stable these days.
If there is a power outage during evening study in a middle school, the whole place will be in chaos.
After school, Chen Qiao had to carry an umbrella and a tape recorder, which was very inconvenient, so he asked Lin Na to hold the umbrella for him while they walked for a while.
Only by helping each other can they go further.
Sister Lin Yu was also traveling with them, but she didn’t look at Chen Qiao well.
She probably felt that Chen Qiao had snatched her sister away.
Children have simple minds and a strong possessiveness.
I have clearly fed him candy, but it seems that I didn’t feed him enough.
I recently got some pocket money and have enough funds, so I should buy him some more candy and snacks.
“Teacher Wang, I brought the recorder over. I wrapped it in a plastic bag so it didn’t get wet in the rain.”
“Thank you for your hard work. I wanted to go to the teaching building to tell you that you don’t have to move things today, but it suddenly started to rain heavily and it was inconvenient for me to go over.”
“Teacher Wang, I’m going home first today.”
“Hey, aren’t you listening to music today?”
Wang Yilin asked in surprise.
“Not today. I have to go home to wash rice and cook. Goodbye, teacher.”
“Oh, then you should be careful on rainy days.”
There was some disappointment in Wang Yilin’s words.
She was very lonely alone.
It was rare for her to have a close student to chat with her and let her vent some negative emotions.
Whether they were talking about work or her hobby of music, they had a lot in common, especially since Chen Qiao, this elementary school student, actually knew a lot about music.
One song isn’t enough time to chat.
There is no way.
Chen Qiao will have to ignore Teacher Wang this week.
The landslide at the middle school is the highest priority at the moment.
But it may not be a bad thing to be tactful with the teacher, making her anxious and fearful and thus becoming proactive.
These days it often rains before dawn, waking people up from their sleep.
Thanks to this, Chen Qiao finally saw his sister’s peaceful sleeping face.
Her long eyelashes intertwined with each other, her fine hair fell softly on her cheeks, and her chest rose and fell with her steady breathing.
Chen Qiao could watch it for a lifetime, but it was a little difficult for him to resist the urge to do bad things and play pranks.
He swallowed his saliva and wanted to kiss his sister’s face a few times.
Chen Feifei got up with one hand, rubbing her sleepy eyes and yawning.
The collar of her nightgown slid to the left, revealing her left shoulder and delicate collarbone.
She grabbed her hair and ruffled it, with a hint of messy and lazy charm.
“Huh? Why did you wake up so early today? What time is it?”
“It’s not even six o’clock yet.”
Chen Qiao glanced at the hour hand on the alarm clock and replied.
“Then sleep a little longer.”
Chen Feifei hugged Chen Qiao and lay back on the bed.
She pressed her thighs on him, rubbing her fingers between his legs, and took a good nap.
Rainy days are the best time to sleep.
It’s also because Chen Qiao hasn’t had his natural physiological reaction in the morning yet, otherwise he would start to talk back to his sister.
