In the afternoon, he communicated with Zhang Jingrui about Hu Guoqing, and Mr. Zhang also supported Hu Guoqing's enrollment, so he said to Mr. Chen: "It happened that two days ago, a classmate in the class was transferred to another place and had an empty desk, so Hu Guoqing happened to fill such a vacancy." ”

In the afternoon, during the recess, Teacher Chen called Mu Zhen out of the classroom and said to him: "I have already said that Hu Guoqing can come to the class tomorrow to study, as for the cost, if he has difficulties at home, you can tell me, and you can inform him to come to see Teacher Zhang tomorrow morning." ”

Mu Zhen was very happy to hear this, and couldn't wait to see Hu Guoqing immediately and tell him the good news.

When Hu Guoqing heard that he could go to class tomorrow to study, he immediately hugged Mu Zhen and whispered to Mu Zhen: "Thank you so much!"

Mu Zhen didn't know what to do, and comforted him in his ear: "This is what should be done, in fact, everything is just the beginning, and the rest depends on you!"

Hu Guoqing let go of his hands holding Mu Zhen and stood in front of Mu Zhen, his eyes were full of tears, they must have been tears of excitement, the two looked at each other, Hu Guoqing's mood was difficult to calm down.

It has been more than half a year since he left school, and in the past six months, Hu Guoqing has been in class in his dreams, and every time he wakes up from a dream, he thinks of those happy times at school, and tears always flow involuntarily. Early in the morning, Hu Guoqing, who still maintains the habit of getting up early to go to school, stood in the sheepfold and watched his little lamb in a daze when he saw the children in the village going to school. Although he never dropped his textbook during this period, he studied the knowledge in the textbook by himself, but he could no longer hear the laughter of his classmates, and he could no longer hear the teacher's teachings in class, how he hoped that one day, he could return to the classroom, and be able to stand on the podium again to speak loudly to the teachers and students in the audience, but all this can only be in a dream, and now hearing the news of his return to the classroom, his young heart ignited a new fire, he saw not only the direction of his own progress, but also his heart was full of infinite strength。

The two of them didn't say much, but they read each other's hearts, Mu Zhen felt the fire in each other's hearts from Hu Guoqing's warm gaze, just like the moment when he suddenly made a decision to turn back when he ran away, it was a kind of longing for life, that was an infinite yearning for light, darkness, hunger, Loneliness can't stop the pace of progress, any difficulties in reality have been regarded as mustard, there is no reason to avoid, there is no reason to hide, some just defeat him, overcome him, victory can finally belong to themselves.

The sun had already hidden below the horizon, and the shade of the trees on both sides of the river embankment had already darkened, Mu Zhen shook Hu Guoqing's hand and said softly: "I should go back to the light class, you should also go back early to prepare, tomorrow we can sit in the same class and study together!"

This sentence suddenly reminded Hu Guoqing: "I almost forgot that you still have to go to class, it's all at this point, you haven't had dinner yet, come home with me for dinner!"

"It's okay, I already asked my classmates to help me cook when I came!" Mu Zhen finished speaking, turned around and walked towards the river embankment, he knew that now that the evening self-study was already in class, if it weren't for the fact that Hu Guoqing was informed that he would go to school tomorrow, he wouldn't have come to the river embankment again today.

Hu Guoqing followed behind Mu Zhen and went up the embankment together, then looked at each other on the embankment, waved their hands, and left separately.

On the autumn night, there was no longer a scream to be heard, only the murmur of insects in the grass in the field, which became so loud for Hu Guoqing, who was lying on the bed. Tomorrow is the first day he returns to class, he wants to fall asleep quickly and nourish his spirit, but it backfires, his eyes are closed, all his brain cells have become extremely active, more than half a year of bitterness, more than half a year of herding life, more than half a year of confusion, like a movie in his mind. He finally couldn't hold back the hardships of life replay, quietly got out of bed, tiptoed open the door and walked into the courtyard.

In the dark, Hu Guoqing, who walked out of the house, saw a black shadow sitting in the courtyard, he didn't think much about it, and he didn't have the slightest fear, so he walked to the side of the black shadow. When he got closer, he saw that it was his mother, although he couldn't see his mother's face, but in silence, he could feel his mother's helplessness and pain.

"Mother, what are you doing sitting here?" Hu Guoqing's whispered greeting broke the mother's silence, and she turned her head to face him.

"I'm not sleepy, sit here and watch the stars!" replied the mother in a gentle manner.

Hu Guoqing couldn't see his mother's expression in the night, but he felt his mother's loneliness and desolation from that tone. Over the past year, his mother for his father's illness and for this family, he has been awakened by his mother's sobbing sound many times, and he feels that he has suddenly grown up a lot, for his mother's sobbing sound, just buried in his heart, he believes that he is a man, can not be expressed by crying, and suppresses his grief in the bottom of his heart. Now that my father has gone to another world, even though my mother's heart is broken, she has no one to talk to, so she can only talk silently to the stars in this dark night.

"Why don't you take a break when you have to go to school tomorrow?" asked the mother with concern.

"I can't sleep, maybe I'll take a nap during the day, but now I'm not sleepy!" Hu Guoqing made up a nonsense, at this time he couldn't express the unhappiness in his heart and add to his mother's sadness.

"You go to school tomorrow, is there anything else you need to prepare?" In the dark, the mother was still thinking about her son's going to school tomorrow.

Hu Guoqing knew that when he came back, when he told his mother to go to school tomorrow, his mother began to prepare for herself, from the clothes she wore to the schoolbag she carried, her mother asked one by one, not to mention that the school was so close to home, and when she came back from school every day, even if she was not ready, she could replenish it on the same day, so he said: "Everything is ready, my original learning tools have not been lost, and the textbooks will be borrowed from classmates when the time comes, what else are you worried about?"

"At school, you have to deal with your classmates, don't make the teacher angry, and study hard!" her mother explained in her most simple language.

"You can rest assured that I will unite my classmates, I will not disappoint the teacher, let alone let you down, and I will definitely take the medical university in the future, become a doctor, and relieve the pain of the world." Hu Guoqing felt that her mother's despair of her father's illness broke her heart, and she used the words of a doctor to comfort her mother.

"Child, no matter what university you are admitted to, my mother is happy, as long as you have a chance, your father is just as happy over there!" The mother stopped when she said this, she probably felt that the sentence just now was a little heavy, and continued to say: " When your uncle left, he repeatedly told me that you must let you go to study, he said that you will definitely have a chance in the future, and gave me a hundred yuan before leaving, saying that it was the money for you to pay tuition, and my mother did not hide it from you. ”

"Mother, don't worry, I will definitely succeed in my studies, and I will be able to bring you back with an iron rice bowl! In the future, you will have no worries about food and clothing!" Hu Guoqing was very firm in his tone.

"This mother is relieved!" said the mother with a sigh.

"I not only want my mother to live a good life, including my sister, but also follow me to live a good life!" Hu Guoqing felt that the two younger sisters were very cute and sensible, as an elder brother, it was natural to take on the burden of this family and take good care of his sister.

"I'm glad that you think of us, and I'm proud to have such a sensible son as you! It's not early, you have to go to school tomorrow, go to sleep, and I'll go back to the house to rest." With that, he stood up and prepared to go back to the house.

The mother who stood up staggered, her body tilted to the side, Hu Guoqing hurriedly stepped forward to support her, and asked, "What's wrong with you?

"It's okay, I've been sitting for too long just now, my legs are a little numb, and I can't stand on my feet, but I'll be fine after a while. The mother grabbed Hu Guoqing's hand and stood still.

"Don't worry, I'll help you into the house!" Hu Guoqing said, trying to move a small step, and his mother also tiptoed. Mother and son helped each other and walked into the house.
