Chu Di grew up in a single-parent family. She only knew that her mother was called Chu Ling, but she didn't know who her father was.
When he was five years old, his mother sent him to Changbai Mountain and handed him into the hands of his master. After that, he never saw his mother again. All his mother's requests for him were conveyed to him by his master. , including letting him go to military academy after returning to his hometown.
When Chu Di mentioned this matter, Ding Mi and his wife looked at each other, and then Uncle Ding said, "Didi, I'm afraid you won't be able to go to the military academy."
Chu Di said in surprise: "Didn't it say that there is a Zhiyun Military Academy in Lidong City that provides compulsory education to local students in Lidong? Isn't this true?"
Uncle Ding said: "It's true, but your admission requirements are not enough. Let's not talk about anything else. Just because of your big glasses, Zhiyun Military Academy will not admit you. Zhiyun Military Academy has very strict eyesight requirements for admissions. If you don't meet the requirements, You won’t be able to enter school until January 5. Our Chaochao family all had eye surgeries in order to go to military school..."
Aunt Mi interjected: "Eye surgery is different now than before. It is very expensive. If you want to have surgery too, we don't have that much money for the time being."
After hearing this, Chu Di smiled and said: "No problem, isn't it just strict requirements on vision? I'm sure to pass their vision test."
Uncle Ding shook his head and said, "Didi, you don't understand. Reading an eye chart while wearing glasses doesn't count."
Chu Di said: "I didn't say that I must wear glasses. Anyway, I just have to find a way to pass their test. I heard that military academy students can stay in the school. If I enter the military academy, wouldn't I save you two the trouble? ?”
Uncle Ding still shook his head: "That won't work. Even if you pass the vision test, there are also blood tests, and bone tempering tests, which are very troublesome. The most important thing is that going to military school is very expensive, and we can't afford it!"
Chu Di wondered: "Isn't education compulsory? Why did you spend money again? Do you still have to pay?"
Uncle Ding said: "Of course you have to pay. The free tuition is just a small scratch. There are also things that cost a lot of money such as training fees, material fees, elixir fees, weapon wear and tear. In fact, I don't know much about it. Wait until my family is super super. I’ll tell you when I get back, he’s already enrolled, and there are more rules in the military academy than I know.”
Aunt Mi also said: "There are also accommodation fees and dining fees. It costs money to live and eat on campus. In my family, Chaochao, we didn't dare to let him live on campus because living on campus and dining are too expensive." ”
Seeing that it was getting dark outside, Aunt Mi said as if she was remembering: "Didi, you haven't eaten yet? Wait until Aunt Mi gives you a bowl of noodles to eat." After that, she walked into the kitchen and brought out a large bowl of Yangchun Snow Noodles not long after.
Yangchun Baixue Noodles are actually noodles boiled in white water without any oil, seasonings or side dishes. Aunt Mi placed the big bowl on the dining room table and greeted Chu Di with some embarrassment: "Come over and eat. I don't have any good food at home. I feel sorry for you."
Chu Di looked at Uncle Ding and asked, "Uncle Ding, don't you and Aunt Mi eat?"
Uncle Ding said: "I happen to be off work today. I have already eaten with your Aunt Mi in the afternoon. Chaochao won't come back to eat, so you have to make do with it."
Chu Di didn't mind the meal. He walked to the dining table and suddenly asked: "Uncle Ding, do you have wine at home? Baijiu."
"You drink liquor?" Uncle Ding looked very surprised and didn't know what to say.
I have never seen anyone who doesn't treat me as an outsider, and I have never seen Chu Di be so rude. It's not enough to just provide food, but also wine. The key is that Chu Di is not yet sixteen years old. How can such an old child drink if he has a tutor? of?
But Aunt Mi directly refused: "No! What kind of alcohol does a child like you drink at home? Look at the children your age who drink? This is a bad habit and needs to be changed."
However, Chu Di refused to listen and insisted: "It can't be changed. I won't survive the next day without drinking. Uncle Ding and Aunt Mi, if you have wine at home, lend me a bottle and wait until I make money." I’ll return it to you later.”
As soon as these words came out, Ding Mi and his wife were shocked at the same time. They couldn't live without drinking for a day. How big an alcohol addiction does this have to be? Aunt Mi was worried that she would not be able to stop drinking even if she was sent to the hospital. She stamped her foot and said: "Why are you so stubborn? Your Uncle Ding and I are doing this for your own good! Forget it, you are not our son. I can’t control you, Baoxiang, just get him a bottle.”
Ding Baoxiang nodded and took out a red packaging box from the wine cabinet. He was about to open it, but Chu Di stopped him: "Don't open it yet. This wine is 36°. I don't drink it, and it won't work if I drink it."
"Ah?" Ding Baoxiang was completely confused, thinking that Chu Di often drank so he knew the alcohol content of the bottle of Qingzhao Tequ in his hand, so he asked: "Then how much alcohol do you want to drink?"
Chu Di said: "52° is the lowest. No matter how much wine you drink below 52°, it will be useless."
Ding Baoxiang felt a little confused after hearing this. There were wines with a temperature above 52°C at home, such as Moutai and Wuliangye, but could such a child drink such wine? So he said: "I don't have such high-quality liquor at home. How about I go to the supermarket in the community and buy a bottle for you? Niu Er, can you do that?"
Niu Er is the abbreviation of Niulanshan Erguotou, but Chu Di has never heard of it, so he replied: "It doesn't matter, as long as the degree is enough. Never mind Niu Er Niu San."
Ding Baoxiang no longer talked to Chu Di, but said to Aunt Mi: "Mi Qian, transfer ten yuan to me." Ding Baoxiang was a strict henwife, and he had to ask his wife for pocket money.
Mi Qian said: "Give me what you want, I'll go with you, I just want to take a walk." Then she looked at Chu Di: "Didi, don't go out, wait until your Uncle Ding and I buy you a drink. "
The couple immediately changed their shoes and went out. Before going out, Ding Baoxiang called Chu Di to the door to perform facial recognition. Today's door locks are all opened by facial recognition, and locks opened with keys have been basically eliminated.
When Ding Mi and his wife came outside the building, Mi Qian said: "Children who don't grow up with their parents can't do it. Look at this child. He has bad habits and a gangster spirit. He dares to beat the security guards. What do you want me to do?" Are you sure you can keep him? Why don't you lead Chaochao into trouble? You have to think of a way to let him go."
Ding Baoxiang sighed: "Who says it's not the case! But where do you want him to go? Wandering on the streets? Then if this child finds out about this house in the future, will he come back and fight for us?"
"Bah! Look at how useless you are!" Mi Qian turned around and poked Ding Baoxiang on the forehead with her index finger, causing Ding Baoxiang to stagger, "I've been unlucky for eight lifetimes by marrying you, even a little kid. You are afraid, no wonder your son looks down on you! Our Chaochao is already an official student of the military academy, and will be a space officer in a few years, so why are you afraid of him, a wild child from the mountains? "
Ding Baoxiang looked ashamed and said, "That's true, but I have a master, an expert from Changbai Mountain..."
Mi Qian immediately interrupted Ding Baoxiang: "Stop it! How old is this? Do you still believe that masters are among the people? In the past few years, how many people who claimed to be the authentic successors of folk martial arts schools came to Zhiyun Military Academy to challenge, not all Defeated by a military student? The teacher hasn't even taken action yet! This child's master is probably a liar like Ma Baoguo."
Ding Baoxiang nodded and said: "That's what you said. But I think we still can't do things too well. If this child has a relative in Lidong or something, give him a hand and come to us for a lawsuit in the future. My head hurts so much!"
"You are just timid! Who would recognize poor relatives these days? Besides, if he has relatives in Lidong, can he get the key and come back to us? Okay, let him live at home for a while first, but you We have to make an agreement with him, the food, food, housing and housing are not free, they will be converted into money and paid back to us in the future." Mi Qian said reluctantly.
