Go back to Ma Rufei to enjoy the flowers, go to Ma Rufei The wine is weak, the wine is slightly awake when it is twilight, and when it wakes up, it is twilight to enjoy the flowers - empty joy, "ghost brother" called and consulted the next teacher Zhang, and Teacher Zhang told him to wait patiently for two more days.

The cicadas are poignant, noisy in the branches all day long, as if their own cries can keep the colorful summer days; the leaves are dripping, trembling at the call of their friends on the ground, always trying to draw a graceful arc when they say goodbye; the drizzle is like weaving, writhing in the waterhole, dancing in a circle of ripples, gently touching the edge of the pool, reluctantly hiding the cheeks that are kissed red—

After the admission notice of the "non-voluntary school", the "ghost brother" waited for two days with peace of mind, and read all the unfinished new books according to his temperament, and the relevant excerpts and reading notes were all sorted out. I just received a phone call from the owner of the bookstore informing me that Linxian County Middle School needed to set the guidance materials for the lower grades, and the "ghost brother" negotiated the price, implemented the quantity, and signed the contract - the east and the west, running back and forth for two days, and after returning home, I ran to the post office twice and ran to the village committee, but still did not receive the admission notice from the provincial normal university.

"Brother Ghost" had no other way, so he dialed the phone number of the senior high school office in the city again, found Teacher Zhang, and said on the phone, Teacher Zhang was also surprised and said: Brother Ghost, it's impossible, there are already students in your class who have received the admission notice from the Provincial Normal University, and there are several science classes - I'll give you a phone number from the Admissions Office of the Provincial Normal University, you quickly call to inquire about the admission situation!

"Brother Ghost" hung up the phone, hesitated, thought about it, picked up the phone and dialed, standard Mandarin, a polite female voice sounded;

After listening to these four words, "Brother Ghost" suddenly thundered like a bolt from the sky, standing there stupidly and stupidly with the earpiece, and the recruitment staff was still talking on the phone, but he didn't hear a word. Although this result had been imagined before, when the real ending was faced, there was still a brief blank in the brain of the "ghost brother", unconscious, and unprecedented helplessness hit in an instant, like a yellowed dead leaf, in the swaying of the wind, without the pull of the branches, aimless, unable to bear the force, fluttering in mid-air, colliding between the branches-

In the quiet bedroom, it was the rapid "beep-to-do" sound after the phone hung up, which made him regain consciousness, put down the phone, and there seemed to be thousands of worms wriggling in the veins all over his body, making people scratch their ears and cheeks, and they couldn't start, more like a cocoon binding themselves, imprisoned in a claustrophobic space, unable to breathe-

The phone rang again, and the "ghost brother" mechanically picked up the earpiece-it was Mr. Zhang, and shouted anxiously on the phone: "Brother ghost-how-how-how-how-talk!" "Brother ghost" gasped, grabbed his hands everywhere on his body, and said impatiently: Not admitted!

I heard Mr. Zhang's "ah-" and hung up the phone. "Brother Ghost" quickly rushed out of the house, ran out of the alley regardless of it, ran on the embankment fiercely and madly, fell and got up, and continued to run wildly, running on the bank of the Qingjiang River in one breath, and plunged into the water. The river wrapped around him, the undercurrent slapped him, his hands and feet did not make any moves, he drifted with the current, and let his body sink in the river - sinking - Nan Ke who felt slightly the same flashed in his mind, Zhang Xuemei who waited with peace of mind, Zheng Lijuan, Liu Jianjian, Teacher Zhang, who was looking forward to it, Yang Caixia who was vague, and Zhang Guoqiang who was hoping -

With a kick under his feet, he pushed the river away with both hands, and a fishy smell went straight into his nose, and the Fanqingjiang Bridge was like an arm, holding up the mountains and raising the glow of the sunset - "Ghost Brother" swam back to the shore hard, lying on a slightly hot big stone, watching the red of the western sky slowly reced-

Beep-beep-beep-The phone rang, Zheng Lijuan picked up the microphone, and as soon as she put it on her ear, she heard Teacher Zhang hurriedly shouting: Brother Ghost - Brother Ghost - I also made a call to implement it, you can be fine, it's a big deal, let's start all over again-

Zheng Lijuan giggled and said, "Teacher Zhang, what are you talking about?" Teacher Zhang was stunned for a while, and said hesitantly: Sister Juan, it's you, I don't know what to say to you, but you have to be mentally prepared?

Zheng Lijuan calmed down for a while and said: Teacher Zhang, isn't it just off the list-it's okay-I expected it a long time ago, in the first year of enrollment expansion this year, all schools are picking flagpoles in chopsticks, admitting from high scores to low scores, and Brother Ghost has just crossed the score line!

Teacher Zhang sighed and said: Sister, it's all my fault, I didn't help you fulfill your wish! Zheng Lijuan sighed and said: Teacher Zhang, no one is to blame, let him go through something-if you have a chance, you should still help persuade him, let him repeat it!

Teacher Zhang continued: Sister Juan, you must let you repeat the reading, you also pay attention to the ghost brother, let me open it up, don't drill the horns, don't-don't-Zheng Lijuan smiled and said: Don't worry, the ghost brother won't, that is a green onion that can be eaten raw, boiled, fried, and stir-fried!

Teacher Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's okay - sister, you can think about it, and if the ghost brother can think about it, I will be relieved! I hung up—after speaking, I hung up the phone. Zheng Lijuan was relieved, there was a kind of relaxation, although she failed her wish, but after all, there was an ending, it was better than hanging in her heart all the time, pulling it from time to time, and it hurt.

She went around the kitchen, covered the embers of the stove with ashes, and walked out of the alley with trepidation, looking left and right on the stone bridge, which would have been the time for the "ghost brother" to walk with her at the usual time. Zheng Lijuan looked at the embankment of the Qishui River and the cemetery on the back hill, but there was no trace, so she walked down the stone bridge and walked along the embankment to the Fanqing River.

Zheng Lijuan stood on the bank of the river, through the gap in the forest, vaguely saw the person lying on the big stone, and shouted tentatively: Brother Ghost - Brother Ghost - "Brother Ghost" heard the shout, sat up, followed the sound, saw Zheng Lijuan's figure, touched the half-dried clothes on her body, walked ashore from the pile of stones with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and tried her best to show a relaxed smile and look at Zheng Lijuan.

Zheng Lijuan also saw the meaning of "Brother Ghost"'s cowardly expression, and held his shoulder and said: Brother Ghost, don't worry, Aunt is fine, I can carry it-you have to open something, let's still have that green onion, although it can't be the main dish, but the side dishes are always indispensable, and if you don't have it, you can't make a banquet! After listening to it, "Brother Ghost" held back his tears, smiled "hehehe", and calmly accompanied Zheng Lijuan to finish walking, and then went home.

Liu Jianshe had already returned, and after scrubbing, he sat in the yard and drank water in a big tea jar. Taking advantage of the opportunity for the "ghost brother" to enter the house to change clothes, Zheng Lijuan called Liu Jianshe into the kitchen, told him about the failure, and told him repeatedly: Don't say anything more, the child is older, let yourself think about it after calming down! Liu Jianshe readily agreed, behaving as usual, just asked about the admission situation lightly during the meal, and reminded the "ghost brother" to make up his mind.
