Chapter 114 Three Boys
The first boy was sitting closest to the podium, with his head drooping as if he was dozing off.
He was still holding a pen in his hand, with an exercise book underneath it.
Gu Chaoxi walked towards him, but the boy was not awakened and his head was still nodding.
Seems extremely sleepy.
When he got closer, Gu Chaoxi saw a faint red mark on the cuff.
Somewhat strange.
She walked around, went up to the podium and stood directly opposite the boy.
If you squat down, you can see the boy's face clearly.
The boy looked delicate, his eyes were closed weakly at this moment.
She lowered her eyes and looked at the exercise book he was using as a cushion, on which his name was written.
Shen Anguo.
Yeah, it's quite in line with the times.
As Gu Chaoxi was thinking this, when he raised his eyes again, he saw that the person in front of him had opened his eyes and was now looking at him intently.
There was no pupil in his eyes, only a black eyeball.
It was clearly out of focus, but Gu Chaoxi could clearly sense that Shen Anguo was looking at him.
There wasn't much emotion in those eyes, only a hint of doubt.
Then he slowly lowered his head, and the pen in his hand swayed as he dozed off.
With a sigh of relief, Gu Chaoxi stood up on his knees.
The second boy was sitting by the window on the left.
It is quite far from the classroom door, and you can still see the scenery outside the window by leaning your head.
The reason for saying this is that Pei Yan was bending over in front of the boy at the moment, looking outside with some curiosity following his gaze.
Outside the window is a tree trunk with some cracks on the bark, revealing a little bit of white.
Some small branches and leaves extend from the branches, which look emerald green.
There was nothing between the trees, not even a bird was seen.
The boy's hair was a little long on his forehead, covering part of his eyes, so his expression couldn't be seen clearly.
His other arm was placed horizontally on the table, with an exercise book under his arm.
Gu Chaoxi walked over and gently pulled his arm to the side, revealing the name written on the exercise booklet.
Qi Tao.
He still held his chin up and looked out the window, as if there was something extraordinary outside that attracted him deeply.
Qin Wei walked to the third boy and looked at him with her head tilted.
This boy is fatter than the previous two, and his face looks chubby.
However, the red mark on his wrist made Qin Wei feel a little concerned.
The boy nodded slightly at this time, his eyes looking at the exercise book in front of him, as if he was doing some exercises.
Then he moved the pen in his hand again and again, but he never really wrote a single word.
Qin Wei walked around and saw the part that was just blocked by the arm.
There is a name written on it.
Zhou Jianguo.
This name... is quite similar to the name I just saw in the Grade 4 Class 3 classroom.
There are no such coincidences in this world, right?
Everyone else in the classroom was sitting in their seats, minding their own business, without making any sound.
Qin Wei stood up and saw Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan discussing something in front of the podium.
"What are you looking at?"
She walked over quickly and saw a lesson plan on the desk, which was the same as the one in their classroom just now.
The front part of the lesson plan contains normal text, but the back part is more like meeting minutes.
Compared to the one placed in the classroom of Class 4, Grade 3, this meeting minutes is more like a background record of the characters.
The names and family situations of the three boys are detailed above.
First is Shen Anguo.
The only son of the Shen family in Chengyang City can be described as a late-born child.
According to the above records, the Shen family had a daughter in their early years. They sent the daughter to school and she had some achievements. However, she unfortunately fell ill and died while studying abroad.
The two elders of the Shen family could not bear the blow of their daughter's death, so they made another effort and gave birth to a son.
It can be said that Shen Anguo is the person on whom all the hopes of the Shen family are pinned. However, he himself is not good at studying and starts to feel sleepy when he sees a book.
In order to help Shen Anguo become more successful, the couple decided to send him to school to get a diploma and then go abroad for further studies.
Gu Chaoxi couldn't help but sneer.
My daughter died of an illness contracted while studying abroad, but I’m still thinking about sending my son abroad. Isn’t he worried that going abroad will bring bad luck to his son?
Let’s talk about the Shen family itself. In their early years, the Shen family was in the cloth business. Their unique dyeing technology can make the dyed cloth fade-resistant, so it is particularly popular in Chengyang City.
Later, the Shen family hired a designer who had studied abroad and started selling clothing.
This time, the Shen family has completely entered the upper class circle of Chengyang City.
However, they are capitalists after all. As their business grew, they opened many garment factories, but they treated their workers in a mediocre manner and even withheld their wages.
Not only are the clothes expensive, but they are also not good for the workers. No wonder they are unpopular among the people.
The second one is Qi Tao.
Qi Tao's information doesn't seem as exciting as Shen Anguo's.
The Qi family has always been a famous noble family in Chengyang City. In the early years, their spice business was particularly good. Later, they began to produce perfumes, which were sought after by many noble ladies.
But, their family isn't a good one either.
Judging from what is written in the record, he is probably doing some shameful things behind the scenes.
It seems that the civilian population was also oppressed.
But think about it, looking back to the early years, rich people like them simply could not understand the suffering of the poor.
The third one is Zhou Jianguo.
The information about him is quite interesting.
It said that he was an adopted son of the Zhou family and his biological father was just a porter and boatman at the dock.
The entire Chengyang City’s docks are all owned by the Zhou family.
After Zhou Jianguo was adopted by the Zhou family, he began to live the life of a young master and was very happy.
However, the Zhou family was not satisfied with his lack of knowledge and skills, so they stuffed him into this girls' high school.
Of course, there is another purpose, which is to hope that Zhou Jianguo can get to know the daughters of prominent families in this school and then marry them.
Qin Wei turned her head and glanced at Zhou Jianguo who was sitting at the back. He was the only one with a round face, and his seat seemed to be squeezing into the desk.
The Zhou family actually expected him to hook up with some rich girl?
But you will understand if you read on.
In Chengyang City, the Zhou family can only be regarded as a local tyrant who did a good business in the early years. The rich people secretly despise those people who rely on their possession of the wharf to make various profits.
only......
"How could a porter's son be adopted by the Zhou family?"
Gu Chaoxi couldn't help but knock on the podium and pointed at the word "adoption".
Obviously, the person who recorded it also had some doubts when he wrote these two words, after all, there was a question mark next to the two words.
“Is this really the teacher’s lesson plan?”
Which teacher would care so much about the family of his or her students? Even to the point of caring whether the children are adopted?
