Chapter 69: Planting Trees for Women
For the whole morning, Su Xing didn't make much eye contact with his classmates, including those friends he usually played well with.
Tian Cheng quietly asked Zhang Xueyan, "What's wrong with Su Xing today? Did I do something to make her unhappy..."
She felt a little guilty when she thought about the fact that someone had asked her about her profile picture in the past two days...
Zhang Xueyan pushed her glasses and said, "Don't think too much. She has dark circles under her eyes today. She might be too tired."
In fact, she also felt that Su Xing was a little strange today, but she didn't think he was dissatisfied with them.
What is the reason?
During lunch break.
Su Xing, who felt awkward for the whole morning, took the initiative to go find Zhang Xueyan and Tian Cheng.
"Want to go to the cafeteria together?"
She had made up her mind that she would just pretend she didn't know that they knew about her stupid things.
She couldn't let them find out either, she already knew they knew...
When Tian Cheng saw Su Xing coming to eat with them, she immediately curved her eyes and smiled widely, "Great! There are fried eggplant boxes in the cafeteria today, we have to hurry!"
Zhang Xueyan also said: "Okay, let's go."
But in my heart I thought: When Su Xing spoke just now, he was looking at her nose, and he didn't look at her...
The three of them finished their meal in the cafeteria and found an empty table to sit down.
Zhang Xueyan looked at Su Xing's panda eyes and couldn't help but remind him, "Don't stay up too late at night. A poor rest will affect your state of mind in class during the day, which is not worth it."
"Hmmm..." Su Xing buried his face in the plate and tried hard to eat the rice.
Zhang Xueyan: “…”
There's something really wrong with her!
……
At the end of the day, Su Xing thought she had "adjusted her state" and no one should notice anything, right?
Compared to her former socially anxious self, she has made great progress now! Her skin has become several inches thicker...
There was no evening self-study on Saturday, and after school, Su Xing waved goodbye to Zhang Xueyan and Tian Cheng "naturally" at the school gate.
Tian Cheng looked at Su Xing who was running towards the bus stop, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I always feel that Su Xing is a little strange. What is strange about him...?"
Zhang Xueyan said: "When she talks to me, she looks at my nose, and when she talks to you, she looks at the top of your head."
Tian Cheng, who had a strange focus, said, "Ah?! Are you saying I'm short?! That's too much! I'm breaking up with you!!"
Zhang Xueyan: "...Goodbye!"
She turned and walked to another bus stop...
……
When Su Xing returned home, her parents were not at home.
She went back to her room, threw her schoolbag down, and fell on the bed.
She didn't want to do anything now, she just wanted to catch up on some sleep...
Two hours later, Su Xing woke up in good spirits!
Ouch! The deep sleep buff is really her favorite buff!!
After cooking a bowl of frozen dumplings to fill his rumbling stomach, Su Xing sat down at his desk in high spirits and started doing exercises!
When it came time to take the "online class", He Xu was really surprised to learn the amount of questions Su Xing had finished that day!
He Xu: "It seems that I still underestimated your potential."
Su Xing was frightened, "No no! This is my limit, really!"
He Xu: “Really?”
Su Xing: "Yeah! Absolutely, Mr. He!"
When He Xu was teaching, he quietly increased the speed a bit, and he found that the little girl could still keep up!
Well, it’s good…
The "online class" ended at nearly twelve o'clock, and Su Xing continued to practice questions alone until two o'clock.
Maybe she had overslept when she got home, so she wasn't sleepy yet. But she was tired of doing exercises and wanted to do something else to change her mind.
So, she took out her precious digital tablet again...
The pressure-sensitive pen outlined and touched flexibly without any hesitation or pause.
Drawing is much more fun than doing exercises...
This time she painted a narrative painting again.
The story begins in the 20s.
Qizi Bay in Hainan Province was once the largest moving sand dune area in Coconut Island. The harsh environment seriously threatened the production, life and even lives of local people!
In 1992, a typhoon hit the port, and the port was blocked by sand. The ships entering the port could not return to the port to take shelter, and were swept to the bottom of the sea by the ruthless wind and rain. Many fishermen in nearby villages died as a result...
From then on, a team of women's soldiers was born in that area. They carried saplings on their shoulders, stepped on the scorching sand, and worked hard on the sand dunes under the scorching sun. They planted trees day after day and built 360 mu of coastal defense forest with more than 1.88 million Casuarina trees!
In 2010, when Chang County completed the task of building coastal defense forests, the county's coastal defense forest area exceeded 5.2 mu, and the area completed by the "Women's Tree Planting Army" accounted for more than 36%...
Su Xing painted this picture using contrasting techniques.
The once white quicksand was vast and desolate, revealing an unruly stubbornness that refused to be conquered.
Today, lush Casuarina trees stand on the endless coastline, guarding the coastal villages like a green barrier!
In later generations, the local official organization built a memorial hall for this team of "women planting trees".
It’s a pity that she didn’t get to visit then…
If she could live to that time in this life, she thought she would definitely go and see it.
After Su Xing finished the painting, he looked at it carefully for a while, and when he felt there was nothing to modify, he uploaded it to Weibo.
Of course, she still simply edited the background story of the painting and posted it together with the painting.
After doing all this, she washed up and climbed into bed in a happy mood.
Before going to bed, she checked out the Weibo of the person who said "I am a die-hard fan of goddess Xiao Su".
She suppressed her shame and glanced through the comment section, but finally couldn't help it, moved her fingers, and followed this "brainless fan".
But it was not an open follow, she clicked the "quiet follow" button.
This is the last stubbornness of her shame...
Su Xing didn't dare play with her phone for too long. It was a waste of time. She quickly put down her phone, closed her eyes and went to sleep.
……
It's around eight o'clock in the morning.
Su Xing received a call from Zhang Xueyan.
Zhang Xueyan asked: "Are we going to the city library together? Or are we just a few?"
Su Xing said: "Okay, wait for me, I'll be there soon."
Everyone gathered at the entrance of the city library.
As soon as Tian Cheng saw Su Xing, she ran over and hung on her.
She pouted and said, "Why didn't you reply when I called you in the group? As soon as Xueyan called you, you came out immediately!"
Su Xing said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I didn't read the group message. Um...you can call me or send me a voice message on WeChat if you want to find me later."
"But your WeChat voice call is also unavailable! I called you twice but the line was busy both times!" Tian Cheng looked gossipy, "Who were you talking to at night? It seemed like it took a long time!"
Su Xing said: "Oh, my tutor."
