Chapter 167 Power Plant

I watched buildings rise up. This may be the time in textbooks that are progressing, society is developing, and technology is also progressing. I saw the hope of dawn, but I don’t remember who extinguished the fire in my heart.

I slept very early that day, and I woke me up when I heard my father coming back on a motorcycle. I rubbed my eyes. I heard my father and grandpa quarrel at the bottom of the building, and then I heard my father rushing upstairs in anger. This was the first time my father dared to talk to my grandpa like this since he was beaten up by his grandpa. My mother was also very curious, just as my father asked:

"What's going on? It's like this."

My father picked up the cup and smashed it towards the door:

"It's really okay for people who are so greedy at the age of age."

I couldn't sleep because of my father's screams and scolds, so I could only listen to the conversation between my father and mother outside the door intently.

"Isn't that piece of land going to be built? The uncle has negotiated the price with others. I can't do it this time if I don't interfere this time. Now the negotiation is completed, and I have no objection. But my father is going to take the money for himself and say that he wants to open a store, and what kind of store he can open. That money is definitely more useful in my hands than in his hands. What's the thing?"

My mother didn't know how to speak about this kind of thing, and she didn't know what she could say about such things:

"What kind of store should you open?"

My father drank the wine from the quilt:

"Isn't there a tourist attraction that is renovated on the old street? He said he wanted to open a teahouse inside. What kind of shop can he open, and this family was just asking him to bet on it. He even opened a store, so he just won't do anything."

Grandpa must have heard his yelling and slammed the door downstairs and came out.

My father was so angry that his face turned red. My mother pushed open my door and walked to me and found that I was not asleep. She said in a low voice in my ear:

"Who do you feel good about you? Don't speak out, be careful that your dad will fire on you."

My father felt so angry that he ran downstairs and rode his motorcycle out of the courtyard. He either went to make a decision with his grandfather or went to Al'er's house to play cards. My mother cleaned up the broken bowl at the door and saw that I was asleep and started watching TV. When my father came back that day, he must have been drunk. The light turned off for only a few seconds, and there was no sound at all.

That night, I didn't finish my homework because I was greedy for fun. When I arrived at school, I felt a little nervous. Teacher Jiang always gave me a very majestic feeling and didn't dare to provoke her anger. But she sometimes was kind like a second mother, letting me bathe in the warm sunshine.

Teacher Jiang called me out after finding out that I had not completed my homework:

"Xu Shanping, did you not complete your yesterday?"

I feel a little guilty, but I know the school and understand the situation in my family, so I have to use the situation at home to put a guise:

"My dad was making trouble at home again yesterday, so I didn't finish my homework."

She sighed:

"Then you take your homework to the class to make up for it, and give it to me before get out of class."

I nodded, finished the homework scribblingly and handed it over. After class, I proudly showed off this matter to Yang Zhuo. Yang Zhuo didn't know what to say, but just smiled.

During class, the first class was Chinese class. Teacher Jiang was Chinese teacher. When she walked into the class, she looked a little wrong. I vaguely felt that she was angry because of me. After she arrived in the classroom, she omitted the teacher's good work and took the textbook in her hand to the podium:

"Xu Shanping!"

I was so scared that I had a cold war. Wei Li and the others smiled on their faces, knowing that they had a good game to watch. I stood up, Teacher Jiang walked up to me, grabbed my collar and grabbed it in front of the podium, raised his hand and slapped it, and threw the homework I handed to her on the ground:

"Look at what you wrote. You said you had something to do at home and didn't finish your homework. OK, I'll ask you to make up in the classroom. What you handed in is homework! You always feel that others look down on you, but you see what you think is worthy of others' attention. Your dad is not good, do you want to be like your dad?"

After saying that, she slapped me again. I lowered my head and didn't dare to look at her. Seeing me like this, she slapped me again:

"Are you a man? If you are a man, just raise your head!"

I still didn't dare to look up, she slapped me again:

"Can't you lift your head up? Are you a man?"

This time, I raised my head hard and looked into her eyes. I don’t know what she saw in my eyes, and my anger disappeared in an instant. He touched his head:

"Remember in the future, you must look up and be a human being. Take your homework out of the classroom and carefully supply me before coming in, remember these slaps today."

I did not shed tears as usual, but I was moved and inspired in my heart. I always felt that those slaps seemed to give me an inexplicable power, giving me an inexplicable firmness and passion. I wrote every word seriously outside, and although I was slapped a few times, I was very moved in my heart.

Some people always say that they treat me as their biological son, but only Teacher Jiang made me feel that she treated me as her biological son that day. She was like educating my children and also passing on her maternal love to me. She is my enlightenment teacher. I have not learned much knowledge or experience from her, but I have gained the foundation for my beliefs and character.

I have never forgotten the taste of those slaps until now. Although the otitis media I later developed later was related to those slaps, I have never resented them. Or, I am willing to be grateful to the only few slaps.

After school, I saw movement not far away. It turned out that there were many large machines on the ground that were still very empty. From the back of the school was the sound of the renovation of the old street. My hometown began to change from that day, in a good direction.

That night I didn't dare to go to the fitness square to play with Sun Tian. I always felt that the slaps on my face might have become their laughing stock. And Sun Tian played well with Li Qing and the others, so naturally it would become a joke in her eyes.

My father was not angry about that incident anymore, because even if he was angry, he would never get the money. Maybe he would be beaten up. This is not a good thing.

My grandfather opened a teahouse in the development zone on the old street, using the money given on the ground. From the time the money appeared to spend, I didn’t know the specific amount there, but I only knew that the money was used to open a teahouse. I went to the teahouse to play, and there was indeed an ancient teahouse outside, but there was indeed a pair of people playing cards and mahjong inside. It wasn’t it a gambling hall. Isn’t this what the teahouse looked like in the usual teahouse?

But they gambled at a relatively large amount and did not dare to bet openly at the door.

The construction speed of the power plant was faster than everyone imagined. The man driving a strange car seemed to be a very rich person. No one knew how much he spent on this project, and the place was completed not long after. I only remember that my aunt happened to have a baby when the construction was completed.

On the night the child was born, my father drove me to the hospital on a motorcycle. A red child was lying quietly in the cradle, and my aunt was lying haggardly on the hospital bed. My father didn't dare to reach out to hug the child, for fear that he would cry. But her love for the child could not help but express her bright smile on her face, and I have only seen it once.

After completion, better street lights began to be built on the roadside. Later, adults said that the factory was a power plant, which almost contracted the circuit supply of half of the town and was responsible for the power output. The money I could make in a year was unimaginable. The boss drove a sports car, and he had never seen him appear in the village and say anything to the villagers. He could occasionally see him driving into the stadium in front of Ahler's house, and he was very envious.

After the power plant was built, it became a paradise for children to play. The artificial scenery inside was much more beautiful than the fields outside, and the gardening was also very beautiful. On the day when the power plant first came into being, some people carrying cameras appeared at the factory gate, and there was also a small helicopter that flew loudly. Later I found out that it was called a drone or aerial camera.

However, the guards of the factory rarely let us go in and play, and they would only let us go in and take a walk occasionally. After the power plant was built, many men in the village went to work in this factory, and their salaries and benefits were very good. They also attracted a large number of outsiders to work in it, but the construction of another place was not satisfactory.

I heard from my uncle that he knew the boss of the old street. He used to be the boss of a company. When he saw that the old street seemed to have a prospect of development, he devoted all his wealth and life to the construction of this town. It was really good at the beginning, and the buildings that should be in various scenic spots were also slowly built one by one. But later, the reputation of this town was also made public, but there was no way to continue to build according to the plan.

The boss had moved his home to a restaurant on the old street and rented out some shops, but he left with the remaining money. Only during the construction period, the old street was popular for so long, and it was still in the news at that time. It was said that reporters from all walks of life came to the town with long guns and short cannons to shoot the most beautiful ancient scenery. At that time, I was photographed playing around by the river.

After the boss left, there was only my grandfather’s teahouse and another breakfast shop on the old street. Before school, my mother would take me to this breakfast shop for something to eat.

Things related to the power plant and the compound should end here. My father later told me about what happened in the open space before. I understood his original intention at that time, but it was normal for those villagers to not understand. After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, interests are the most important.

I felt very uncomfortable when I watched Sun Tian play with Li Qing and others in the class. I always felt that if I had Li Qing or Wei Chengshan as outstanding, it would definitely attract Sun Tian's attention. But I didn't. I always felt that I might not have been as outstanding as Li Qing in my life. Or maybe, I would never have been as favored by Sun Tian in this life.

I went to the street to buy a small notebook, and I started writing things randomly on it. I didn’t know what I was writing, but I just wanted to write something. It was occasionally related to the messy thoughts, and occasionally to Sun Tian. I almost carried the small notebook with me, so I fell to the ground and was seen by Wei Chengshan.

He opened the small notebook and screamed:

"Oh yo"

I heard the voice and saw that my notebook was holding in his hand. I knew something was going to happen. The more he turned his face, the bigger the smile, and then he began to read it. I rushed forward and tried to grab the notebook in his hand, but he flashed by and dodged it. I stood up again and wanted to grab the notebook back from him again. However, Zhu Tianbao grabbed it. Wei Chengshan found the love letter I wrote to Sun Tian silently and read it in front of everyone. Sun Tian also heard it from the side. After Wei Chengshan finished reading, I was already blushing, but I didn't dare to punch Wei Chengshan.

Sun Tian was so angry that she lay on the table and cried. It turned out that she knew that I liked her, which was so painful for her. I should have become a clown in her heart. When I saw Li Qing walk to her side to comfort her, she calmed down. It turned out that what she really wanted was not like me.

Maybe I don’t know what it means to like and love at all, but I understand that when I see someone, I feel happy and like it. At that time, maybe my hormones have not started to be secreted, but I just want to embrace her when she is sad. It is a simple and possessive feeling, and I can only look at everything in front of me and can’t do anything.

That day, Zhu Tianbao accidentally punched a nail into my hand while playing with the stapler. I screamed, and then everyone looked at my place. Only Sun Tian lowered her head and wrote her homework, but I felt a little disappointed. The teacher looked at the situation and asked me to go to the hospital after class. That day, everyone followed me home.

It's like I'm a play and they're having a great time watching it.

After returning home, the classmates were watching me on the side of the road. After I threw my schoolbag, I ran to the front to find the grandmother, and they parted. In order to avoid my father's bad idea of ​​beating Zhu Tianbao again, I said that I accidentally did it myself.

The last time my father did something made the talent in the class laugh at me for a long time, and they all said that I would ask my father to come over and cheat money.

I took off the nail on my thumb in the health center on the street, and then I was told that I would go to get a tetanus injection tomorrow. I simply bandaged it and came back.

I knew I didn't have to go to school tomorrow, so I had dinner early and waited at the fitness square, hoping to see Sun Tian...

I just want to tell her that if my liking has brought obstacles to her, I have to apologize to her.
Chapter completed!
