Hearing Rong Xian's words, Old Man Rong was obviously a little surprised.

He put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at Rong Xian: "What exam?"

Rong Xian didn't seem to expect his grandfather to ask, but he was stunned for a while, and then replied honestly: "I signed up for a junior carpentry class and studied for three months, and today is the day of the examination." ”

"Aren't you in school, I remember...... High school?" He raised his eyes and looked at Mr. Lou, and after getting a definite answer, he frowned, "Why can't you study hard and run to take this test?"

Old Man Rong's obvious disapproval made Rong Xian calm down, he straightened his back, and said, "Because I like it a lot." I've learned all the courses in the three years of high school, and exams are not a problem. Then I wanted to learn something else. I'm more interested in traditional skills now, and I want to learn a little more formally, so I signed up for a carpentry class, and it happened to be today's exam, and I didn't expect it to happen to you. ”

Old Man Rong stared at him for a while, picked up his chopsticks again, and began to eat breakfast.

"Then go ahead, take the test well, and try to pass the test once. There seemed to be a faint smile in his voice.

"Hey, that's necessary, it's just a beginner, if you can't pass the test, it will be too embarrassing! And I have a competitor! I am bound to score higher than him!" Rong Xian keenly noticed that the old man was different from before, and instantly became lively.

"Then I'm leaving!" Rong Xian wrote another battle letter to Gao Xiaoshu in the air, put the two fingers in his right hand together, saluted his grandfather, got up and said, "Go back and report the good news to grandpa!"

"Wait. Old Man Rong suddenly remembered something, put down his chopsticks again, and asked Mr. Lou, "The child is taking the exam, do the parents want to help prepare something?"

After asking, he pondered again, and said, "Do you have all the stationery or something?" No, this is a carpentry technician, do you have to bring some axes and saws or something?"

"No, no, there is a written test, but it is a computer-based test, no stationery. Everything else is prepared by the school. Rong Xian was flattered, explained repeatedly, and finally slipped away in the disbelieving eyes of Old Man Rong.

Walking downstairs in South Park, Rong Xian slowed down, reminisced for a while, and suddenly laughed twice.

"I don't think my grandfather is any different from other people's grandfathers. He said.

Xu Wen smiled slightly and did not speak.

Rong Xian was even happier, and walked out of the South Park briskly.

The exam began at nine o'clock, and they crossed half the city, and arrived at Yangtian Technical School at eight twenty.

Rong Xian was still in a good mood, and he was chattering with Xu Wen all the way.

Entering the school gate, he saw the familiar back in front of him at a glance, and happily went up and patted the other party's shoulder: "Morning, Xiaoshu, today I will let you kneel down and call me Dad! Hey, what's wrong with you? Who bullied you!"

Gao Xiaoshu turned his head, his eyes were red, and there were tears on his face, and he was secretly crying alone.

Xu Wen was looking at them with a smile, but his expression became serious.

As soon as Gao Xiaoshu saw that it was them, he hurriedly wiped his tears and said, "Why did you come so early, isn't there still more than half an hour?"

"Don't talk nonsense, who bullied you? Hurry up, let's clean him up!" Rong Xian didn't let him change the subject.

"No, no, it's just that the sand is blind, I didn't cry. Gao Xiaoshu explained with tears in his eyes.

"Bullshit!" Rong Xian poked at him mercilessly, "You think that acting in a TV series is still a sand and blinding eyes, do you think I can't see it?"

"Xiaoshu, everyone is a friend, you don't have to mind so much. Even if you can't help, it's easier to say what you have on your mind. The exam is coming up in a moment, so don't let your emotions affect the results. ”

Everyone can see how hard Gao Xiaoshu works during this time. In particular, he is indeed extremely talented in carpentry, and after being praised by Lu Yuan and others, he is even more energetic, and the whole person is almost immersed in it.

Otherwise, he will not be regarded as a strong rival by Rong Xian, who is actually very high-spirited.

Therefore, Xu Wen knew very well what kind of words worked best for him.

Sure enough, as soon as he heard that it might affect the results of the exam, Gao Xiaoshu immediately relented, but became even more aggrieved than just now.

Xu Wen glanced around, took them to a tree next to the playground, asked them to sit down on the grass, took a pack of tissues to Gao Xiaoshu, and went to buy a few bottles of water, one of which was stuffed for each person.

After this action, Gao Xiaoshu's mood was much calmer.

He sat on the grass and said a little aggrievedly: "Before going out, my parents quarreled again. ”

Although Gao Xiaoshu was sent by his family to report his name, in fact, there is only one person in the family who really supports him to learn carpentry and become a worker who has mastered the craft, and that is his grandfather.

During this time, he worked hard, he thought that this would make his parents feel at ease, but he didn't expect his parents to quarrel even more because of it.

His mother thought that if he had worked so hard a long time ago, he would not have been able to pass high school, so he could only go to a technical school.

His father ridiculed his mother for finding someone to come to the house to play mahjong every day, this kind of learning environment, what can children learn.

He was going to take an exam today, but his parents had another quarrel, forcing Gao Xiaoshu to go out early. The more he thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved, and he began to cry on the way.

"What about your grandfather, isn't he quite supportive of your exams, and he doesn't care about your parents?" Rong Xian asked with a frown.

"Grandpa is hospitalized......" Gao Xiaoshu's eyes turned red again.

In fact, this is also one of the reasons why his parents quarreled.

In one word, poor.

His family was already living tightly, his father was a single worker, his mother didn't work, and the family wouldn't be without food, but it was really only enough to eat.

Two months ago, his grandfather suffered a minor stroke and was hospitalized, which made the family's situation worse.

His father thinks that his mother plays mahjong at home every day and doesn't go out to work, and his mother doesn't spare people to turn over old accounts, scolding his father for being poor when he got married, not a penny of bride price, and not holding banquets, only a small broken house that his grandfather used to divide into units, which is the one they live in now.

The old man has been a worker all his life, so poor that his son almost can't afford to marry a daughter-in-law, and now the young one can't afford to go to school and can only become a worker. The family was so poor that she had no head, and she had to marry into this family for eight lifetimes.

"This woman is also going too far, isn't it? How can she say that she is in charge?" At this time, the people from the class also came one after another, and when they heard Gao Xiaoshu's words, Lu Ah Mao was furious.

"No, you can't scold my mom. Gao Xiaoshu looked at him with red eyes, "She is also very hard, she is busy looking for a job every day, and she also cooks and delivers food to my father, and she takes care of everything." ”

"Talking about bargaining...... That can't be said either. Rong Xian said with a frown.

Although he was an illegitimate child, he was born in this kind of family and was born without suffering. He has only seen what Gao Xiaoshu said in books, and it is really difficult to have a personal experience.

"It's not so miserable to be a worker now. Now these days, it's not all about how much work you do and how much you eat. Lu Laosan suddenly opened his mouth very straightforwardly, and took out his mobile phone to show Gao Xiaoshu, "Someone always called me and told me to work there." said that I would open 80,000 yuan a month, plus a commission. Uncle Cat should also have it, and the money must be more. ”

"Show off a fart!" Lu Ah Mao knocked him, turned his head and nodded to Gao Xiaoshu again, "Indeed, if you have a craft, you still don't have to worry about eating." ”

"But Xiaoshu's family is short of money right now, and what they need to solve is the urgency at hand. "Lu Yuan is more upright than Lu Laosan.

"Hmm. Gao Xiaoshu was just a little excited, and then he was depressed again, "My mother said that my grandfather's hospital is almost unbearable, and he has to take it back to the family to take care of it." ”

"I ......" Rong Xian hesitated for a moment, and was about to speak, Xu Wen turned his head and shook his head at him.

"During this time, you studied under this circumstances?" Xu Wen had been listening reassuringly, when he suddenly asked.

"Aside from this, I don't have anything to help with housework and take care of grandpa. Gao Xiaoshu said helplessly, "Grandpa kept asking me how I was learning, praising me for my good life, saying that the workers were very good, and let me study hard." And ......"

He raised his hand, his expression changing slightly, "This is really interesting." I often feel as if the wood is talking to me, telling me what they want to become. It's strange, I didn't feel this way before. ”

Xu Wen looked down at him, and suddenly said, "Gao Xiaoshu, you take the test well." If you pass the exam today, I will give you a job, and you can earn some money to solve some urgent needs for your family. ”

Gao Xiaoshu hadn't reacted yet, and Rong Xian's eyes had already lit up. He stared at Xu Wen tightly, squeezed his eyebrows and said, "This is child labor, if someone reports it, you will be unlucky!"

"If you're interested, of course you can come. But you have to pass this test and get a certificate. Of course, Xu Wen understood what he meant.

"No problem, look at me! I'm going to knock down Gao Xiaoshu and turn over and be the master!" Rong Xian laughed, shouting nonsense, and waved his fist at Gao Xiaoshu.

"I'm not going to lose. Gao Xiaoshu's eyes were no longer red, and he said confidently.
