    Qiu Hongmei knew how much money she could exchange for that little grain. It cost a lot to get her medicine these days, and she could also spend money to cut meat and eat it. Did the child have any other money on hand?

    "A-Ning, even though our family is poor, we must have backbone. We can't just take all the money. Don't make others laugh."

    Zhou Ning was stunned for a moment, and understood what she meant, so she smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't become bad. Besides, I still have to go to college, so there is still a long way to go in the future."

    Qiu Hongmei nodded with red eyes, "Mom is really happy that you think so."

    "Hurry up and eat, don't you have to go to work today?"

    The school is closed today on Saturday, but the math competition group has activities, and Li Guoliang wants to conduct a small test to test their strength.

    There was a market in the village today. Seeing that it was still early, Zhou Ning wandered there first.  There was someone selling chickens on the roadside. Zhou Ning asked an old hen seller and he could buy one for two yuan.

    "Can your chicken still lay eggs?"

    "Why not? Girl, look, this is what it just laid, and it's still warm!" The chicken seller took out an egg from her pocket and showed it to her. It was indeed still warm.

    "Why are you willing to sell eggs if you can lay them?"

    "Old hens make a lot of money. People who buy hens usually have a daughter-in-law who is in confinement at home. Otherwise, who would be willing to sell hens? They lay a lot of eggs in a year!"

    Are you a liar?  Zhou Ning curled her lips and touched the little money left in her pocket. After thinking about it, she decided to forget it. When next spring, she would buy a few chicks to raise and lay eggs to replenish her health.

    Unexpectedly, the sister-in-law dragged Zhou Ning and refused to leave, insisting on selling the hen to her. In the end, Zhou Ning spent one yuan and eighty-three cents and went to school with a hen that could still lay eggs.

    From a distance, I saw a person squatting at the door of the classroom.

    Zhou Ning kicked Qin Shao with her toes, "Why are you sleeping here?"

    Qin Shao, who was asleep against the wall, was startled. When he opened his eyes, he saw Zhou Ning holding a chicken and staring at him. He quickly wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and said in a daze, "Teacher Li asked me to come."

    Zhou Ning looked into the classroom. Huang Tao and others were already here, but they didn't see Gao Yu.

    "You didn't sleep last night?"

    "I went to bed. I got up too early in the morning and am very sleepy now."

    Qin Shao yawned and stood up and stretched, "What are you doing holding the chicken?"

    "Bought on the road."

    Zhou Ning looked at him, "What did Professor Li ask you to do?"

    Qin Shao scratched his hair in worry, "I don't know. He woke me up early in the morning and ran around the river several times. My calves still hurt."

    "So that's it. It seems that Professor Li has a compassionate mind. He is saving a fallen soul. Qin Shao should be repaired and repaired. He yawns day after day, like a sick man.

    "Let's go in. If you don't want to listen to the class, just sleep in the back. Sleep outside. Be careful of catching a cold."

    Huang Tao and others noticed that Qin Shao had followed them in, and their expressions suddenly turned grim. These nerds had the rotten temperament of educated people, and they looked down on people who were not as good at learning as them.

    "Qin Shao, help me look after the chickens!" Zhou Ning stuffed the old hen into Qin Shao's arms and patted his head like a mother, "You can go on to sleep."

    Several people were shocked. Is this still a math competition class?

    Gao Yu and Zhou Hui came in with Professor Li and Wang Peng. When they saw Qin Shao sleeping behind the classroom, Gao Yu's face was expressionless, as if it was just a ball of air, and he had no interest in paying attention at all.

    Huang Tao diligently pulled out the chair for Zhou Hui. Zhou Hui smiled and sat down, and asked in a low voice, "Who is the boy behind?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
