The time of Jixianglu is still walking so unhurriedly, but the summer vacation is over. In September 2006, on the day of the start of the new semester, a grand opening ceremony was held at Gangcheng No. 2 Middle School. Freshmen and old students all wore neat school uniforms, sat quietly in the school auditorium, listened to rounds of leaders' speeches, and had to applaud them in a timely manner to show that they were not distracted.

So boring!

Jolene silently stretched her legs. This year, she has grown two centimeters taller, and now she has jumped to one meter six or seven. When she went to see her brother during the summer vacation, he laughed at her for being a dwarf with short legs and arms. She knew that her brother was deliberately teasing herself, and what he said would be better to listen to in reverse. When he says that he is short, he is tantamount to boasting about his growth in disguise.

Jolene and her brother are bickering every second, and she can't even tease her brother at all. But at the moment of separation from him, Qiao Lin was so uncomfortable that she couldn't speak, cried all the way on the train, and finally became the laughing stock of her sister and Xu Wei.

My sister also left a few days ago, and this separation may have to wait another year to see each other. Jolene's world suddenly became extremely empty, and if you want to find a few moments when you don't want to grow up, the scene of separating from her brother and sister will definitely be selected.

The conference continued, and Principal Xu talked about the admission rate of the second middle school with a smile. In the past, it was only possible to produce a student from Tsinghua University and Peking University every two or three years, but now three or four students can be admitted to Qingbei every year. Maybe compared to the high schools in big cities, this promotion rate is scum, but for the students of Gangcheng No. 2 Middle School, this result is enough to excite them.

Qiao Lin patted her cheeks to make herself more energetic, and looked at Principal Xu raising her arms and shouting, "You are all selected elites, each of you has the possibility of being admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University, and you will definitely have the most brilliant life ...... if you study hard for three years in Hong Kong City."

When President Xu spoke, he had the high-pitched incendiary nature of a fascist leader, and he could fool the students in the audience with passion, and they were all gearing up and getting more and more excited. But the excitement is someone else's, Jolene never believed that she could be admitted to such an awesome school, so she didn't have so many expectations.

But in the second middle school, many students exhausted all their energy just to get close to the two temples in their minds. They only need five minutes to eat, they don't take a shower, they don't have a haircut, they do everything they do, and they even have to calculate the time when they go to the toilet. But even so, most people can't get into the top universities because the opportunities are so limited. Jolene feels that this kind of life is a bit pitiful, no, more of a sense of powerlessness than pity.

Qiao Lin is thinking about life, and Zhao Linlin is looking at MP4 with her head down. Her headphone cord was hidden in her school uniform, her long straightened hair just covered the headphones, and she put the MP4 on her lap, so she couldn't see it if she didn't get closer. She watched a Taiwanese idol drama "The Prince Becomes a Frog", which seemed to be very funny, because she kept biting her fingers to prevent herself from laughing.

Whenever the head teacher came over, Qiao Lin would always touch her with her legs, and Zhao Linlin would sit upright, pretending to listen carefully; as soon as the teacher left, she lowered her head again and watched the idol drama attentively.

Jolene couldn't help but whisper, "It's really good-looking?"

"It's so good-looking! Tell the story of a domineering president who went to the people and accepted the transformation!" Zhao Linlin turned into starry eyes and said intoxicatedly: "Mingdao really satisfies all my fantasies about the domineering president." ”

Qiao Lin glanced at it, the guy named Ming Dao was indeed quite handsome. At this moment, Principal Xu's speech was finally finished, and Qiao Lin applauded perfunctorily, only to hear him introduce a guest to speak. This guest is none other than Qiao Lin's brother-in-law, Song Yizhi.

My sister-in-law is fitness all year round, so his figure is very well-proportioned, and he doesn't have a middle-aged beer belly, which looks very refreshing. He didn't wear any beads on his hands, usually a Cartier-sized watch. He was dressed in a crisp suit and stood on the stage looking radiant.

A few days before the start of school, Qiao Lin heard from her mother that her sister-in-law was going to build an art building for the school, including vocal and instrumental music classrooms, piano rooms, dance practice rooms, etc., all of which were on par with the top high schools in first-tier cities. Qiao Lin knew that her aunt's family was rich, but the actions of the two of them often refreshed her understanding of the word "rich".

The sister-in-law also talked eloquently on the stage, talking about his understanding of education from quality education, talking about his experience of top high schools at home and abroad, and finally talking about the sense of responsibility as an entrepreneur - that is, to help the society share worries and provide convenient conditions for the school in order to cultivate more talents.

Qiao Lin knows that the sister-in-law is not here to show off, nor is he here to show off his wealth, judging from his consistent style, he is indeed out of a sense of social responsibility as an entrepreneur. This time, she applauded from the bottom of her heart, and stabbed Zhao Linlin, saying, "Hey, look, this is the real domineering president!"

Zhao Linlin raised her eyelids and saw that it was a middle-aged uncle, and immediately lost interest: "So old, can you still be called president?"

"......" Jolene choked back and stopped arguing with her. Anyway, in Zhao Linlin's consciousness, only young, handsome, rich and even a little indifferent people can meet the standard of "president".

After the meeting, many students were discussing the sister-in-law, and the daughter-in-law - Song Minjia naturally became the focus of discussion. Min Jia, like her classmates, wore the school uniform of No. 2 Middle School and wore a simple ponytail. But she is beautiful, she is a dance specialty, and she has a very powerful father, who is simply a winner in life. Now, she is not only a beauty at the level of "school flower", many people call her the goddess of the second middle school.

The boundary between "school flower" and "goddess" is very blurred, but psychologically speaking, the school flower can probably still be pursued, goddess...... It's a bit of a distancing thing.

Min Jia is very calm about all this. She always seems to have that kind of expression, quiet, not sad or happy, and if she is helped by others, she just says "thank you" lightly. Her grades are not very good, and I don't see her inferiority.

Her stationery is almost all Japanese or German brands, and there are pink posters on her desk, and she organizes her books in a layered way, and puts a pink storage pen holder on her desk. Other classmates rushed into battle every day in order to get admitted to the university, and even discouraged, among them, Min Jia was definitely an outlier. She is always dressed up neatly and tidy, and the study space is also kept warm and romantic by her. It can be said that she is outside the "Port City No. 2 Detention Center" and is a little girl who understands the mood of life.

Min Jia has only a few friends, and the closest one is her cousin Jolene. Qiao Lin was promoted to the second year of high school, maintained good grades, and was the captain of the school's aerobics team, and unknowingly, she also became the "man of the hour" in the mouth of her classmates. On the day Min Jia entered the school, she said very loudly, Sister can cover you for anything, just mess with me in the future!

Min Jia rarely showed a smile and said: "Sister, you have wanted to be a heroine since you were a child, but when you grow up, your chivalrous spirit is getting heavier and heavier!"

Qiao Lin also smiled, she didn't tell Min Jia, she was still secretly writing martial arts novels! But this matter was not a proper business after all, and she was embarrassed to tell her cousin.

After Shen Chunxiao was expelled from the aerobics team, Min Jia filled her vacancy. After all, Min Jia has practiced dance since she was a child, and she went to an art school before, so her dancing skills can be said to be the most solid. In Mr. Meng's words, her joining can be regarded as "like a tiger with wings".

For Min Jia's arrival, Qiao Lin jumped straight up happily, full of pride: "Next year, let's work together to lead the second middle school to win the championship!"

Min Jia was not interested in the championship, she was not the kind of competitive character, but she respected her cousin's dream, so she smiled lightly and said, "Okay, let's win the championship together!"

Among the freshmen enrolled this time, there is another old acquaintance of Qiao Lin, that is Wei Chenglin. Judging from the previous signs, Wei Chenglin's hope of entering the second middle school was basically shattered, but after learning that he had also entered the second middle school, Qiao Lin was not only excited, but also very curious.

In fact, Li Lanzhi was also taken aback, she first sold her daughter: "Do you know how much money the Chenglin family spent?"

Jolene immediately shook her head.

Li Lanzhi stretched out ten fingers, and Qiao Lin exclaimed, "One hundred thousand?"

"Alas, I never knew that the Wei family was so rich!" Li Lanzhi smiled bitterly: "Your Aunt Zhao plans to send him to the vocational high school, and then send him to the army in two years." But Mrs. Wei disagreed, scolding her for not caring about her son's life or death. The old lady took out her coffin and threatened her daughter-in-law that if she didn't pay for it, then she would go to Chenglin's aunts and ask them to pay for Chenglin's schooling. Your Aunt Zhao is also a good face, and in the end, she took a big head and sent Cheng Lin in. ”

Qiao Lin smacked her lips when she heard this, and Li Lanzhi sighed: "Cheng Lin is not a material for reading at all, and when the family property is ruined one day, the Wei family will die!"

Wei Chenglin and Min Jia were assigned to a class, and on the first day of school, they were caught by Li Lanzhi. For he still had long hair and dyed yellow hair, like a moving mushroom. Li Lanzhi ordered him to cut off his hair and dye it back black, if Wei Chenglin dared to disobey, then there was a trick waiting for him.

Whether it is to report criticism or call parents, Wei Chenglin cannot be frightened. In the face of Li Lanzhi's criticism, he listened with a hippie smile, and then continued to go his own way.

The current freshmen are completely post-90s, and their personalities are indeed more distinct than before, Li Lanzhi has a headache, but she doesn't dare to be too tough, and she is worried that if she is forced to do something extreme, the students will do some extreme things. When she was at a loss for Wei Chenglin's stubbornness, she didn't expect him to obediently cut his hair and dye it black.

Li Lanzhi asked him, the sun came out of the west? Wei Chenglin said with a smile: "No, it's just that Sister Qiao Lin doesn't like it, and she doesn't talk to me for several days, I can't help it!"

Li Lanzhi was stunned - Wei Chenglin just listened to Qiao Lin when he was a child, and he would listen to her when he grew up? She sensitively noticed that this kid wouldn't have any ghost thoughts, right? However, even if he had any ghost thoughts, Qiao Lin couldn't be moved by him.

After all, Jolene now has big ambitions and only two goals, the first is to be admitted to the top five in the class, and the second is to win the provincial championship in calisthenics. Although Li Lanzhi doubted her daughter's learning ability, she never doubted her resilience. She also knew that some little boys wrote notes to their daughters, but Jolene was very determined and never took the love of children to heart. Li Lanzhi is quite pleased with this.
