14, the Westokes equation(1/6)
At five o'clock on Monday morning, Lin Zhixia got up. Her mother just came back from stocking up, and her father and mother were tidying up the warehouse. Lin Zhixia, wearing slippers, stepped into the kitchen lightly.
She peeled two apples, mashed them into puree, added rock sugar and starch... Her mother's voice suddenly sounded behind her: "Xia Xia, what are you busy with?"
Lin Zhixia looked back at her mother and said honestly: "Mom, I want to make two apple pies."
Their family had just eaten dumplings last night, and there were still a few pieces of dough left in the refrigerator.
Mom washed her hands with a basin of tap water, took out the dough from the refrigerator, and then said to Lin Zhixia: "Go back to the bedroom and go to bed, Xia Xia, mom will make apple pie for you."
Lin Zhixia yawned and rubbed her eyes: "I want to do it myself."
"You've never cooked, you don't know how to use gas, and you're not as tall as a water pipe. What can you do?" Mom issued an ultimatum, "Go back to bed. I'll wake you up at six o'clock."
Lin Zhixia was indeed very sleepy. She returned to the bedroom, rolled up a quilt, and fell asleep quickly. When she woke up, she smelled the aroma of apple pie. Her mother put the pie on a plate and placed it
Let cool on the edge of the stove.
Lin Zhixia packed the pie in a glass lunch box and stuffed the lunch box into her schoolbag.
On the way to school this morning, Lin Zhixia jumped up and down. The blue sky stretched as far as the eye could see. Her mood was unparalleled. Every step seemed to step on the clouds, causing her soul and body to float in the free wind.
Aquarium! Aquarium! Visit the aquarium!
There are also strawberry milk, strawberry cookies, and apple pie in the schoolbag!
Lin Zhixia is super happy!
Lin Zhixia took all her assets and rushed into the classroom of Class 4(1) happily.
The school bus will arrive at the school gate at 7:50 in the morning. But now it is only 7:10, and there are only a few people in the classroom, which is relatively quiet.
Jiang Yubai is already here.
Jiang Yubai stood next to his seat, looking at the campus scenery on the first floor. Lin Zhixia ran to Jiang Yubai, opened the plastic bag, took out the lunch box in the bag, and handed Jiang Yubai a fork.
She said: "This is the apple pie I made at home. I mixed the filling myself. You can try it."
Jiang Yubai was not hungry at all. But Lin Zhixia looked at him with bright eyes. He was embarrassed to refuse, so he could only reluctantly accept it. He lowered his head, took a bite of the apple pie, chewed it slowly, and then said slowly
: “It’s delicious.”
Lin Zhixia raised her head: "As long as you like it. Jiang Yubai, this is your lunch box. I will return it to you."
Jiang Yubai declined: "I will not take back the gift given to others."
"Do you want more apple pie?" Lin Zhixia asked.
Jiang Yubai was very reserved: "Thank you, no need." He had a strong character and would never allow himself to be bribed with food.
Lin Zhixia observed his expression and said deliberately: "Then I will take it to others to eat."
This morning, classmate Han Dawei, a member of the Labor Committee, arrived at school at 6:50. Han Dawei cleaned the classroom alone, and he was hungry. When he heard Lin Zhixia say: "Take it for others to eat, Han Dawei took three steps and two steps at a time"
Bu jumped to Lin Zhixia's side: "Lin Zhixia! What do you have to eat?"
"This!" Lin Zhixia raised the lunch box.
"Give it to me!" Han Dawei took it with both hands.
Jiang Yubai opened his schoolbag and took out a large bag of Hainan specialty fruit cakes and coconut cakes. He threw all these good-quality snacks to Han Dawei.
In an instant, Han Dawei's surprise turned into ecstasy: "Wow! Jiang Yubai! You are so generous!"
Jiang Yubai took the lunch box from Lin Zhixia and zipped up his schoolbag again. Without saying a word, he sat back down with his merit and fame deep in his mind.
Lin Zhixia turned her back to him and looked out the window, pretending to be calculating all the mysteries in the world: "Jiang Yubai, will you have this kind of character when you grow up?"
"What kind of character?" Jiang Yubai asked seriously.
"It's that kind of character," Lin Zhixia described. "What you think in your heart is different from what you say."
Jiang Yubai was about to refute her, but she turned around and smiled at him. He suddenly forgot what he wanted to say and stayed in his seat quietly like a mute.
At 7:40 this morning, all seven classes in the fourth grade lined up.
In addition to the head teacher, each class also has two leading teachers. The teachers give repeated orders that all students must abide by the rules and regulations of the aquarium and must not run around and scream, which will damage the reputation of the school.
Teacher Wu faced the students of Class 1, Grade 4, and emphasized again: "When you walk out of this school, you will not only represent yourself, but also the face of the teacher and the school. You know, right? Our Class 1
This is a key class and the first-ranked class in grade. You must abide by order and have a sense of collective honor! Okay?"
The students shouted in unison: "Okay!"
The momentum is majestic, soaring straight into the sky.
Teacher Wu waved his hand. Class monitor Dong Sunqi hurriedly followed Teacher Wu’s footsteps. Then, the whole class got on the bus in an orderly manner.
Jiang Yubai sat in the last row. Dong Sunqi and Ding Yan were both seated next to him, while Lin Zhixia and Gan Shuli sat in front of him. The two girls whispered to each other and soon started laughing.
stand up.
Ding Yan asked: "Lin Zhixia, are you telling a joke? Give me one, I want to hear it too."
Lin Zhixia and Gan Shuli were having so much fun that they completely ignored Ding Yan's request from behind the seat.
Ding Yan put his hands on his knees, turned around and said to Jiang Yubai, "I have a good idea."
Jiang Yubai asked him: "What's your idea?"
Ding Yan whispered furtively: "Lin Zhixia and Gan Shuli didn't tell me what joke they were telling. You and I will laugh a little more, and when they come to ask us, we won't tell them either!"
After explaining, Ding Yan laughed: "Hahahaha, Jiang Yubai, hahahaha."
Jiang Yubai said: "Crazy."
Ding Yan was abandoned by both his friends of the opposite sex and his friends of the same sex, and he suddenly realized that life was not easy. When he looked up, he noticed that there was an earphone hanging on Jiang Yubai's left ear. He took a closer look and found that Jiang Yubai was holding a cup in his hand.
Holding an mp4 player.
mp4 player!
Forget about mp4, Ding Yan wanted to buy mp3, but his parents didn't agree.
Ding Yan hooked Jiang Yubai's shoulder and begged: "Lend me your mp4 to play with."
Jiang Yubai agreed. So, the mp4 player fell into Ding Yan's hands.
Ding Yan noticed that this MP4 player was the latest model released by Newman Company in September this year. The display screen was as big as Ding Yan's palm. The screen was clear and high-resolution, and the metal buttons had a dull feel. Ding Yan pointed a finger
When you press it, your whole body will suddenly feel relaxed, as if you are seamlessly connected to the latest high-tech in 2004.
"What videos do you have?" Ding Yan asked impatiently.
"Detective Conan, Pokémon, Black Cat Sheriff." Jiang Yubai manipulated the buttons to call up the playlist.
Dong Sunqi, who was sitting next to him, stuck his head out and exclaimed: "Detective Conan!"
"Shall we watch Sheriff Black Cat?" Ding Yan said, "My dad won't let me watch Sheriff Black Cat. He said Sheriff Black Cat killed a lot of people... No, a lot of animals died."
Jiang Yubai didn't care much: "It's up to you."
Ding Yan immediately chose the fourth episode of Black Cat Sheriff, this episode is called "The Mantis That Eats the Husband".
"The mantis that eats your husband!" Ding Yan exclaimed, "Holy crap! This name is so exciting."
Lin Zhixia, who was in the front row, suddenly turned around and told them: "I read from the "Life Science Research" that the probability of a male praying mantis being eaten by a female during mating is not high. This is because the male praying mantis has well-developed wings and is capable of flying.
Stronger than the female mantis. It lies on the back of the female mantis..."
At this point, Lin Zhixia suddenly paused.
Ding Yan, Jiang Yubai, and Dong Sunqi all looked at her blankly.
She timidly retracted her seat as if she had been hit by a ghost in broad daylight. Her cheeks turned red, and the blush spread to her ears. The sudden strong feeling of embarrassment wrapped her up like a cocoon, making it airtight.
She could hardly breathe.
"I was talking about science just now!" Lin Zhixia announced in a low voice, "Do you understand?"
Jiang Yubai took the lead in answering: "Life science."
Lin Zhixia breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes! It's life science."
She and Gan Shuli exchanged places. She sat by the window, and Gan Shuli was close to the corridor.
There is a blue curtain hanging inside the bus. This foldable curtain was pushed to the other side by Lin Zhixia so that she could gaze at the scenery outside the window. The bus had just climbed onto the viaduct, carrying a bus of passengers, climbing higher and higher
.The skyscrapers in the distance are lined up in rows, the city's skyline is well-proportioned, and the blue sky and white clouds blend seamlessly with the city scene.
Looking at the microcosm of modern society in front of her, Lin Zhixia couldn't help but think of the origin of human civilization. She thought of the Sumerian civilization on the Mesopotamian plains - the academic community recognized that the Sumerian cuneiform writing was the most important thing in human history.
The earliest written records that can be traced back. There is also the Liangzhu Civilization that originated from the Yangtze River. In Liangzhu about four to five thousand years ago, the Chinese were already able to make exquisite jade congs, jade bis, lacquerware and silk
.
Jade cong and jade bi are both ritual vessels used by the ancient Chinese in major ceremonies...such as sacrifices. The ancients emphasized "using bi to worship heaven and using cong to worship earth." It seems that all the wonders left by ancient civilizations around the world are
It is related to the gods of heaven and earth and religious beliefs. Why is this? Lin Zhixia had new thoughts.
She also remembered that the ancient ruins of Puma Peng in South America were a large number of finely processed Stonehenges. The materials used in Stonehenge were all extremely hard andesite and diorite. And Puma Peng 15,000 years ago
The ancients could drill perfect round holes, horizontal straight lines, and standard right-angled polygons into that kind of rock. She suspected that those ruins were formed by molding rather than polishing.
When Gan Shuli asked her: "Lin Zhixia, what are you thinking about?"
