When the five-star red flag fluttered on the high flagpole and the "March of the Volunteers" came to an abrupt end, the school leaders sat in front of the rostrum, their white and clean faces with solemn expressions, and began to speak in turn, and their mouths exuding the smell of steamed buns with long speeches.

Then the first outstanding student representative spoke, in a decent manner, all about how to study hard and how to contribute to the construction of the four modernizations of the motherland. After that, the students who gave the lecture also followed the rules and talked about the importance of learning and life ideals. According to Wang Xiaokai's statement: there are no big farts, everyone is like a philosopher. Indeed, the group of seventeen or eighteen-year-old teenagers in the rebellious period in the audience almost stood and took a nap.

Of course, this is not their pot, as an outstanding student representative, the strength must be there, compared to those guys in the audience who pick their noses and eyes, they can talk a lot, and the future is bright. It's just that the students' speeches have been reviewed by the school in advance, and any heretical ideas will be castrated, and it is dangerous for the sword to go sideways, and the main theme is the correct line that the school leaders want. Zhang Yunqi remembered that someone once commented on domestic schools and said: The temple of thought is full of the minions of life, the laity are in charge, and the mixed people have become the mainstream.

This is too extreme, but it is not without truth at all.

When it was our turn to meet for the first time, it was already close to ten o'clock.

Fortunately, it had just rained heavily a few days ago, and the heat of the autumn tiger had receded slightly, the temperature at this time was just right, there was wind, and the sun in the sky was not dazzling.

The football field was also quite quiet, and many students were staring at the first sight, and the good-looking little face became the focus of attention. From the eyes of many boys, Zhang Yunqi, an old bird, seemed to see himself in his previous life as a student from them.

I remember when I was studying in my previous life, sometimes I met a girl on a certain road at school, maybe because of beauty, maybe because of the hazy side profile, maybe because of a certain clear temperament, or maybe it was an inexplicable smile of the girl when she walked by, a charming whirlpool appeared, and then she fell into the whirlpool, palpitations, tossing and turning for many nights, trying to pay attention to her quietly, peeing and in the toilet and thinking about her, even after many years, I have forgotten the girl's appearance, but in the dead of night, I can recall the feeling of palpitations, a feeling that is really difficult to express, perhaps, is like the scent of gardenias when a child is very young to mark spring, or the candy that he holds in his hand until he sweats when he is a child.

The feeling of youth.

Zhang Yunqi knew that it was difficult for him to have it again, and his mental age could not be changed, but this did not affect him to integrate into such a youthful atmosphere, looking at the first meeting of the rostrum with an appreciative gaze, and waiting for her speech.

The speech at first sight was not quite the same as the previous students, she didn't look at the speech, she took the microphone and said: "I just stood in the back and listened to the speeches of the students in front of me, and they were all very good." I don't have any more words here to encourage you to study hard. However, people often ask me in private, "Why are your grades so good at first sight?"

After a pause at first sight, her voice was not loud, but every sentence was clear: "In the past, I would tell the other party that my grades were good because of hard work, but now, I want to say that my grades are good because my stepfather is a gambler, my mother is mute, and my sister is an imbecile." ”

There was a commotion in the audience.

Zhang Yunqi was also stunned for a moment, and looked at the first sight on the rostrum with a little surprise, slender, and the sky blue school uniform on his body was exceptionally clear in the sun, but his demeanor and tone seemed to be a little harder than the usual soft and quiet girl.

"You work hard to look forward to a good future, and I work hard to be confined to a bleak reality. It's not the same. So, I don't really know how to tell you how to study hard, and I don't really believe that people who play every day can easily get good grades. Perhaps the real effort is never quiet. Every night I study until 9:30 o'clock, go home to review until 12 o'clock at night, sleep on the alarm clock, get up at half past four in the morning to read, wash clothes, make breakfast, and then come to school to study, chase the teacher's questions, and pinch myself when I am tired. That's my life. It's not good enough, it's boring, it's monotonous, and it goes on and on, but hopefully it will make something happen to some people. ”

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

At this time, some people applauded, compared with the previous outstanding student representatives' "If we want to study hard, we must establish lofty ideals and firm beliefs, and start from little by little...... perhaps, this girl's words are more intimate and humane.

Hatsumi continued: "Actually, I don't know if I will get everyone's sympathy and pity by revealing my family situation here. In fact, a lot of people have done this to me. But I'll say I don't need that. Because someone once told me that there may be many misfortunes in life, but there is no need to blindly magnify and indulge in them. Survival is one thing, life is a poem. My family is not very good, but I love my family, they are my poems, and the only reason why I became the first in the school and aspired to be admitted to Peking University!"

"It's really domineering. ”

Wang Xiaokai at the back of the team was amazed.

Yang Wei answered: "People have this capital for the first time. ”

Tian Zhuang touched his chin and said: "I think today's first meeting is a bit abnormal, what a quiet and gentle girl she usually is, she is really sharp when she speaks, tsk, it seems that people who are weak on the outside will be harder on the inside, but her face doesn't seem to be bloody, it can't be something, right?"

Wang Xiaokai smiled and hugged Zhang Yunqi's shoulder, and said meaningfully: "This is going to ask our boss Zhang." ”

Zhang Yunqi was silent.

Because he didn't know, he looked at the girl on the stage, holding the microphone, her little face was white, and her body looked extremely thin in everyone's various eyes, but her tone was still calm and steady: "In the end, I may have to waste a little bit of everyone's time, because I want to take this opportunity to say a few words to someone." He's among you, and he may seem ordinary, because he's always quiet, doing things quietly, and he's helped me a lot, and he thinks I don't know, but I know, I just don't know how to speak, because he never needed that. ”

Chu Jian raised his head slightly, looking at the blue sky above his head, without the shelter of the house, pure blue, suffocating: "Do you know? I often think of the day on April 9 this year, and I may never forget it, because that day was the 88th anniversary of the school and my 17th birthday, and I experienced a lot, happy, happy, painful, and desperate...... Until you appeared, I wanted to tell you at that time: there are times in people's lives, there are always times when I feel that I see the door of heaven open, I have struggled for so many years, and at the moment when I was about to collapse, the door opened, and behind the door, there were angels, and it was you. ”

Hatsumi put down the microphone and bowed slightly.

The football field was silent for 2 seconds, and applause rang out.
