Chapter 21 Chapter 21

What about taking the domestic college entrance examination again? It’s also a road. However, she has to go back to register, which has bothered her. Her academic status should still be in school. Just go back to school to register. You will leave after completing it. There is no need to go home. Ji Qingqing probably wouldn’t have thought that she would take the college entrance examination, so she shouldn’t have gone to school to block her.

In the Chinese college entrance examination, we only look at the scores. If we don’t have enough scores, we won’t be able to do it. One point is a few thousand people. The competition is fierce, and the difference is one point, and the head is bleeding.

She is not afraid of mathematics, it is not very good, but it is okay to get 90 points for the 120-point paper. The mathematics in the American college entrance examination is similar to the Chinese college entrance examination. I heard that it is simpler; 100 points in English, based on her current English level, she should also have 90 points, lower and more conservative, 80 points will be better; 120 points in Chinese, get 90 to 100 points, this is 260 points;

Physics, chemistry, and politics are all 100 points. If you are more conservative, you will get around 200 points; if you add 70 points to politics, you will get 60 points, and the total score is more than 500.

She failed to get 519 points in the undergraduate upgrade of Anhui Province in the college entrance examination last year. The main reason is that English is dragging her back. Now there is still hope to make up for this shortcoming, as long as she has not forgotten other subjects.

You should buy some questions like the domestic college entrance examination exercise set.

One red heart, two kinds of preparations.

So the next day, I took Chris to Xinhua Bookstore with me.

Chris was almost as tall as hers.

Just wearing ordinary T-shirts and jeans, the handsome white boy is very eye-catching wherever he walks.

He also said "Hello" and "I would like to ask" to others politely. Under her teaching, Chinese speaking has also made great progress. In addition to the difficulty of writing, it is equivalent to giving up, ordinary dialogue cannot defeat him.

During the summer vacation, Xinhua Bookstore, which is equipped with air conditioning, is a cool place in the hot summer. There are many primary and secondary school students who are stuffed into Xinhua Bookstore to read books by their parents, and they all look at Chris very rarely.

Zhang Wenya can understand that in the early 1990s, children would still think that "foreigners" are quite rare. It was already very polite and calm that they didn't come up to watch.

Zhang Wenya bought two sets of big test papers and mock test papers, and divided them into two cloth bags. Chris volunteered to help her carry the cloth bags.

Walking out of Xinhua Bookstore, the sun shines brightly.

"Oh, it's so hot, call a taxi." Zhang Wenya looked at Chris' sweating on her forehead.

"It's not hot. Take the bus." Chris rarely has the experience of taking the bus. He thinks there are many Chinese people, few cars, and many people riding bicycles on the bicycle lane, especially when they are out during the morning rush hour, the torrent of bicycles shocked him.

He usually goes to school early, and in the car he hardly looks out the window. The scene he sees in the car is completely different from the scene he sees standing on the side of the road.

Very novel.

It's still early now. Just after 10 o'clock, I agreed with Mr. Kent that she would take Chris to Xinhua Bookstore today. Mr. Kent wouldn't come back for lunch. They could play outside before going back. The books they bought were quite heavy and were not suitable for shopping.

"Take a taxi back, go back and ride a bicycle out, I'll take you to Nanjing East Road and then go to the Bund."

The Bund is the location of the concession before the liberation, and the most prosperous area of ​​old Shanghai. On the edge of the Huangpu River, the other side is Lujiazui in Pudong.

Chris rarely had the chance to ride a bicycle on the road. When his eyes lit up, he immediately agreed.

When she got home, she put down the test paper and changed into a top. Daddy was quite conscientious and asked Cheng Xiumei to bring her clothes several times. She took a large bag of her top and skirt. She finally stuffed her wardrobe half full.

Zhang Xiaofeng doesn’t know how to pick clothes, he all chose them by Cheng Xiumei. Cheng Xiumei has a good vision and occasionally makes mistakes, but most of them look very good.

Just as I was thinking, the phone rang.

It was Cheng Xiumei. She said that Xu Erfeng had a holiday for her today and she had nothing to do. She asked Zhang Wenya if she wanted to go out for fun.

Zhang Wenya hesitated for a moment. She didn't want Cheng Xiumei to know that she was working as a nanny in a foreign friend's house. Last time she met, she said skillfully that she found a new job and was working as a nanny for others. The employer did not have very young children at home, but only a junior high school boy. She didn't have much work, just cook and watch the child do homework.

Cheng Xiumei was very sympathetic to her, but she knew that her salary was as high as 100 yuan, so she was very envious again.

Xu Erfeng only gave Cheng Xiumei fifty yuan a month, which looked a lot, but it was not enough to buy a few tapes.

Now the cheapest walkman made in Japan costs more than 100 yuan. Cheng Xiumei, the girl who arrived in Shanghai, was immediately baptized by the prosperity of Shanghai. She was very fashionable. After saving her salary for three months, she finally bought the cheapest walkman. She spent a huge amount of 9 yuan to buy a box of the popular star Aaron Kwok's "I Can't End of Love for You" tape. She was so busy that she couldn't get tired of listening every day.

Cheng Xiumei is very good at acting cute, "Sister Xiaoya, come here, today is my birthday, and my aunt only took my vacation. She also gave me twenty yuan and asked me to buy a cake by myself. Come on, let's celebrate our birthday together."

Since this is the case, it is really hard to refuse.

"Oh! Why didn't you say it earlier! I didn't buy you a birthday gift! I can't go to see you empty-handedly. Then... let's meet at Chenghuang Temple. You know my salary is not very useful. I'll buy you what you want!"

Cheng Xiumei was very happy, "Okay, when will you come out?"

"Just one, let's see you at two!"

Chris said dissatisfiedly: "Who did you make an appointment with? You clearly said you would take me to the Bund first!"

"It's Cheng Xiumei. She celebrates her birthday today, and I always have to celebrate her birthday."

"What about me?"

Zhang Wenya frowned, "Do you want to go?"

"Can't you go? Am I embarrassed?"

It should be "I'm embarrassed to you?" Yes, I actually used the word "shame" correctly.

Such a child has a strong sense of self-esteem. If he doesn't pay attention, the child may feel "I've been abandoned." Besides, according to their American concept, a thirteen-year-old child cannot be left at home alone, and she really has to take him with him.

"What a shame, this word is not used like this. Well, I really can't leave you alone at home. Then I'll send you to the Consulate General."

He immediately said, "Don't go!"

"Ah, look, our Chinese parents and guardians don't look at children like this. You see, there are so many children in Xinhua Bookstore, but there are not as many adults. Why? They just put their children in the bookstore temporarily."

Chris showed an incredible expression on his face, "Really? That's illegal."

I can't tell that the children are quite legally conscious.

"You really want to go with me?"

"Yeah!" Chris focused his head, indicating that he would never compromise.

"Okay, but I made an appointment with her at Chenghuang Temple. It's quite far away and it's hard to ride a bicycle. Take a taxi. It's too hot now, and the buses are full of sweat and smelly smell."

"What time? Now?"

"I won't go now, so I made an appointment at two o'clock. If I have time to go to the Bund now, I can still have dinner at a restaurant on the Bund."

Zhang Wenya made up her mind not to cook by herself at noon today. She likes to cook, but she also needs rest. She is also very tired when cooking every day!

Time is limited, so Zhang Wenya decided not to visit Nanjing East Road and head straight to the Bund.

There are many people on the Bund, so tourists won’t say that the Bund is a must-visit place; locals in Shanghai also like to visit the Bund, but fortunately it’s hot at noon, and the Bund is not crowded.

The boy Chris was quite careful. He wore a folding cold hat, got out of the taxi and took out a round thing from his backpack. Zhang Wenya didn't know what it was at first, but just after paying the car, she suddenly saw the round thing popping away and turning into a girl's hat.

Chris put a hat on her, "The sun is too strong, put on a hat."

Unexpectedly, I was taken care of by a child.

"Thanks."

Chris smiled.

The Bund is close to the Huangpu River. There are ferries, cruise ships and freighters on the river. Standing by the fence, looking down, Lujiazui opposite is full of construction sites, and the Oriental Pearl Tower has not yet begun to be built.

It was hot, but today the wind was quite strong, and the hat was almost blown away.

The hat has a wide brim, which can block the sunlight from directly shining on her face. A gust of wind blew, and she hurriedly held the hat.

The wind blew her short skirt again, and she was busy holding the skirt again.

Zhang Wenya couldn't help laughing.

Chris was puzzled, "What are you laughing at?"

"I thought of a joke."

"What joke?"

"It was said that there were three girls going out to play, one American girl, one Japanese girl, and one Chinese girl. A gust of wind blew, the American girl held the hat, and the Japanese girl held the skirt, and only the Chinese girl pressed the hat with one hand and the skirt with the other."

Chris looked confused, "What does it mean? I don't understand."

Zhang Wenya shrugged, "I don't understand either, it's just a bit funny."

Chris thought for a while, "It doesn't matter if the hat is blown away by the wind."

"That's wrong. The skirt can't blow on me. I should hold the hat like an American girl."

"Ah, that's right!" Chris suddenly realized.

In fact, this "joke" refers to different cultural backgrounds.

The locals and provincial people on the Bund can be seen at a glance.

Locals are old and fashionable, especially for women. It is rare for all kinds of short-sleeved tops, sleeveless tops, short skirts, miniskirts, and short skirts that can be worn by someone to the knees. Young men generally wear Aaron Kwok-style hairstyles, but this hairstyle is very picky about the amount of hair, and whoever has less hair will be ugly.

Young men basically wear jeans, which is the most fashionable one; tops include T-shirts, short-sleeved shirts, polo shirts, and round-neck sweaters, with many styles.

People from other provinces are not that fashionable, and they generally wear short-sleeved shirts and straight-leg pants.

There are also foreign friends, but they are not rare.

Zhang Wenya took two bottles of mineral water in the freezer outside the newsstand, 50 cents a bottle, and the newly launched Yibao mineral water. She took out her wallet, took out a one-yuan bill, and paid.

Chris took a bottle of mineral water.

He is a little good. He drinks whatever he buys for him. Zhang Wenya never thought about asking him what he drinks. There are also Coke, Sprite and Jianlibao in the freezer, and there are many choices.

I had lunch at a Western restaurant on the Bund at noon. I ate more than 100 yuan per meal, which was worth an average worker's salary for a month, but it was less than 20 US dollars.

The Western food was pretty good, but Chris was not satisfied and whispered that it was not as delicious as what she made.

Oh, it’s all her fault! She has made the child’s appetite tricky.

Nothing happened while eating. After dinner, I checked out and left. Unexpectedly, a young man in a waiter uniform hurriedly walked out of the Western restaurant and walked up to her with a smile.

"Oh, little girl! What a coincidence!"
