Wang Gang was not surprised that Wei Shufen was laid off.
Since the reform began, many units in the city have experienced poor performance, and some factory workers have been unable to pay their wages.
Wei Shufang's original work unit was ordinary. In order to take care of her family and children, it was common for her to arrive late and leave early. She didn't care about her work at all. It was not surprising that she was laid off.
Fortunately, Qi Ziqiang's job is not bad. He was promoted a few years ago because of his outstanding work. Now he is considered a junior leader. Even if Wei Shufang is laid off, the financial pressure on his family will not be great.
Several children in the Qi family have grown up one after another. Qi Weimin will take the college entrance examination next year and his score will be better than Qiao Yicheng.
As for the second and third eldest children in the Qi family, their grades are pretty good and it will not be a problem to get into high school.
"Second Qiang, you are now in your first year of high school. Don't work hard fishing anymore. In the last three years, you have to work hard." Qi Ziqiang said with concern.
"I know. My eldest brother and I have agreed that we won't go fishing during school days. We will go on weekends when we have time to earn living expenses."
Wei Shufang nodded and said: "That's good. If you have any difficulties in life, just tell my aunt. In the future, my aunt will open a small shop and have a lot of free time."
Qiao Yicheng told Qi Ziqiang and Wei Shufang about the sports student, and they were immediately happy for Wang Gang.
"The top two have been sensible since childhood, have good academic performance, and are talented in track and field. My sister has a spirit in heaven. I must be very happy to see you all succeeding so well." Wei Shufang's eyes turned red as she spoke.
Qi Ziqiang sighed, patted his wife on the back, and comforted him: "Yicheng and Erqiang are promising, you should be happy, why are you crying!"
Wei Shufang wiped her tears and said, "Yes, yes, I don't cry, I should be happy."
Wang Gang told his aunt and uncle about Teacher Duan's appointment with him to go to the sports school on the weekend, and then said: "I plan to take Sanli to the sports school on the weekend. If she also has the talent for sports, high school and college will not be a problem."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Simei asked: "Second brother, can I go too?"
Qiao Yicheng said angrily: "Why are you joining in the fun? Normally you wouldn't even do anything if I ask you to."
Qiao Simei said confidently: "I haven't been to a sports school yet."
"You just play all day long, and you don't show any interest in studying." Qiao Yicheng said angrily: "If you could be as sensible as Sanli, I would wake up laughing even in my sleep."
Qiao Simei said aggrievedly: "What's wrong with me!"
Qiao Yicheng was acting in front of his eldest brother, but worrying about his parents.
Usually at Qiao's house, Wang Gang loves the sensible Sanli more, while Qiao Yicheng loves Simei more, but his love is a little more hateful than iron.
"Is there any room for deterioration in your academic performance? If you don't study hard, you may not even graduate from elementary school." Qiao Yicheng said to Qiao Simei.
Qi Weimin advised: "Simei is still young and hasn't developed her skills yet. It will be fine when she gets older."
"She's not your sister, of course it's easy to say that." Every time Qiao Yicheng met Qi Weimin, the cousins would fight with each other.
"Simi is now ranked last in the class every time she takes an exam."
Qiao Simei said unconvinced: "Second brother was not good at studying before, but later he got better, didn't he?"
"Then you can show me how to figure it out! You will graduate from elementary school next year. If you don't figure it out, how long do you want to wait?"
Qiao Simei pouted and stopped talking.
Wang Gang touched his nose and felt that it was unlikely that Qiao Simei would be reincarnated and awaken his memory like him.
In fact, none of the children in the Qiao family have any talent in reading. Whether it is Qiao Erqiang in the past or Qiao Sanli and Qiao Simei now, their grades are not very good.
Even Qiao Yicheng actually has average talent, but he just puts in more effort than ordinary people.
Comparatively speaking, Qi Weimin is a perfect academic. He has been excellent in both morals and academics since he was a child. He never has to worry about Qi Ziqiang and Wei Shufang's studies.
In the previous high school entrance examination, I was admitted to a key high school with excellent results, and now I have the ability to hit the top spot in the college entrance examination.
Every time Qiao Yicheng quarrels with Qi Weimin, Wang Gang thinks it's just jealousy.
Qi Weimin has always been the kind of child from other people's families.
Later, if Wang Gang hadn't been more eye-catching, Qiao Yicheng wouldn't have come to Qijia for dinner.
After eating, Wang Gang and the others did not leave immediately. Instead, they played with Qiao Qiqi for a while and did not go home until eight o'clock in the evening.
When he got home, Qiao Zuwang was actually at home, sitting in the living room with an unhappy look on his face.
"You go to my aunt's house to eat and drink well, and I want you to drink the northwest wind at home?" Qiao Zuwang slammed the teapot onto the table, causing some of the tea to spill out.
Wang Gang and Qiao Yicheng looked at each other and asked him to take the sisters back to the room while he dealt with Qiao Zuwang.
Qiao Yicheng nodded, picked up the sleepy Qiao Simei, and entered the house with Qiao Sanli.
Wang Gang sat down next to Qiao Zuwang and said, "I told you yesterday that we would go to my aunt's house for dinner tonight, and I also left food for you. Why don't you eat it?"
Qiao Zuwang was a little afraid of Wang Gang, mainly because Wang Gang would sometimes perform a show of breaking bluestone with his palm in front of Qiao Zuwang in the yard, which he called "martial arts practice".
As time passed, Qiao Zuwang came to know that his second son was born with supernatural powers and had learned martial arts outside.
When Qiao Yicheng was young, Qiao Zuwang's life was a little easier. Seeing that Qiao Yicheng was about to turn eighteen and could have custody of the children, Wang Gang no longer had any worries.
He had thought about it several times and wanted to deal with Qiao Zuwang quietly.
However, Qiao Zuwang is a man who bullies the weak and fears the strong. If you give in, the more he advances. On the contrary, the more stubborn you become, the more he retreats, leaving Wang Gang without any reason to deal with him.
Just like this time, Qiao Zuwang softened as soon as Wang sat down.
"You have good food and good drinks, but you can't let me eat the leftovers." Qiao Zuwang shrank his neck and touched his belly and said:
"I'm old and have bad gastrointestinal problems, so I can't eat raw or cold food."
Wang Gang asked back: "Don't you know how to heat up the food?"
Qiao Zuwang innocently said: "Then you need me to know how to use the stove? You all ran away and I was left alone. Who can help me heat the food?"
"Can't you learn to use the stove?" Wang Gang said impatiently.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When Qiao Zuwang saw that Wang Gang's expression was wrong, he was trembling in his heart and couldn't speak at all.
"I want to learn, and I need you to teach me." Qiao Zuwang said like a frustrated little daughter-in-law.
Wang Gang raised his eyebrows, and then he remembered that Qiao Yicheng was afraid that Qiao Zuwang would cause trouble, so he banned him from entering the kitchen, fearing that he would act like a monster and set the house on fire.
"I'll ask my eldest brother to teach you how to use the stove later. From now on, you can heat up your own meals." Wang Gang made his own decision, and Qiao Zuwang didn't dare to lose his temper.
Wang Gang was still a little disappointed. If Qiao Zuwang broke out, he would have reason to give him a secret kick.
Now Wang Gang wanted to take action, but couldn't find a chance. He looked like a bad guy, thinking about murdering his old father all day long.
It can only be said that Qiao Zuwang is still quite capable. At least he has reached the full level in terms of bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
Later, Qiao Yicheng came out, heated up the food for Qiao Zuwang, and demonstrated how to use the stove.
The next day, everyone performed their duties, those who went to school went to school, and those who went to work went to work.
As soon as Wang came to school, Teacher Duan stared at him and reminded him of his weekend appointment.
Sitting in the classroom, Wang Gang also noticed that Xiang Nanfang looked at him a little strangely.
After returning home last night, Xiang Nanfang asked about the level of 11.12 seconds in the 100-meter run, and he was shocked.
She still doesn't understand how Wang Gang has such a strong talent in track and field. Is it because he skipped classes and ran a lot to practice?
Regardless of what Xiang Nanfang thought, Wang Gang stayed at school for two days, and finally waited until the weekend and took Qiao Sanli to the sports school on Park Road by bike.
Teacher Duan and his classmates have been waiting for him on the playground for a long time.
After all, a sports school is a sports school, with more tracks than high school majors. Teacher Duan’s classmate is named Hu Tianhai, who teaches track and field at the sports school.
Teacher Duan and Coach Hu paid great attention to this test. Not only did they bring professional equipment, they also asked Wang Gang to change into sprinting clothes and gave him a pair of professional running shoes.
Teacher Duan also taught Wang Gang the starting movements of athletes, trying to measure his true performance.
Coach Hu stood at the end of the 100-meter run. When Wang started to run, he was startled. He was too fast, too fierce, and too explosive.
When Wang just crossed the finish line and Coach Hu pressed the stopwatch, he was shocked.
"10 seconds 3!" Coach Hu took a breath and almost bit his tongue, and then a word flashed in his mind.
"Asian Flying Man"
Teacher Duan ran over and was surprised when he heard Wang Gang's 100-meter score. This score was completely at the level of the top athletes in the country, and it was still the best.
Coach Hu felt like he had found a treasure. Before Wang Gang turned sixteen, he could run 10.3 seconds. With a little more training, wouldn't it be possible to set a new world record when he reaches adulthood?
At the same time, Coach Hu was also very confused. He made the same movements as Teacher Duan, and kept stroking and kneading Wang Gang's legs.
"It's unscientific! How can his legs be so explosive?" Coach Hu murmured while touching Wang Gang.
Wang Gang had goosebumps all over his body and quickly took two steps back to avoid Coach Hu's hand.
"Coach Hu, would you like to see if my sister has any sports talent?" Wang Gang changed the subject.
"Oh! Okay." Although Coach Hu was very curious about Wang Gang's legs, he also knew that today was not the time to explore.
Wang Gang called Qiao Sanli over and asked her to try running too.
Originally, Coach Hu and Teacher Duan had some expectations. After all, Qiao Sanli is Wang Gang's biological sister. It would also be good for them if they could discover two track and field talents.
Unfortunately, after the test, Qiao Sanli did not have the talent in this area.
