Chapter 182 All the way to the north
The second middle school has been turbulent for a year, and the results of this college entrance examination are naturally unexpected. Science students still have two experimental classes, and the admission rate does not fluctuate much, but the liberal arts students are simply miserable. Except for Xu Na, who was admitted to the city's liberal arts champion without any suspense, there were no other highlights. Jolene has passed the test like this, and she is still sixth in the class, and the rest of the grades can be imagined.
Half of the key classes in the liberal arts decided to repeat their studies and fight again next year. Qiao Lin can accept her college entrance examination results, so she will not compete with herself, and will go to Beijing to go to university.
Jolene won a provincial championship in the calisthenics competition, and she can add ten points. After careful comparison and various considerations, Li Lanzhi finally targeted the English department of an engineering university, which was more certain.
After choosing, she panicked for her little daughter. In her heart, she also felt that her youngest daughter had paid so much, so she should go to Beiwai. But according to the situation in previous years, it is at least 50 points higher than the first line, and it is only 9 out of 10 to report to the north. Qiao Lin definitely won't be able to pass the exam this time, and Li Lanzhi feels regretful.
In addition to regretting it, she also felt indignant -- why can't our students go to a good university even though they have all taken the exam so high? Why is it so difficult for students from other places to get into a school in Beijing?!
During the video with her eldest daughter, she asked, "Lulu, do you think we should persuade Qiao Lin to go back and review for a year?"
Qiao Lu said: "Qiao Lin's opinion is the most important thing, she has her own opinions, let's not make decisions for her." ”
After Li Lanzhi finished talking to Qiao Lu, she didn't repeat it after she realized that her eldest daughter had made a mistake. But the situation was different at that time, Qiao Lu felt that the financial burden on her family was too heavy, so she didn't repeat it. In retrospect, this was also a pain in her heart.
The more Li Lanzhi thought about it, the more guilt she felt about her eldest daughter. Qiao Lu saw through her thoughts, and said, "Mom, what are you thinking, aren't I doing well now?" Qiao Lin...... Don't look at her as well-behaved, but she should have a resistance in her bones, and she is unwilling to accept this kind of test-taking education anymore. It's okay to don't look back, just look forward. ”
Jolene went home to fill in the volunteers, and she had no opinion on her mother's choice of the University of Technology. Li Lanzhi finally asked her if she wanted to repeat her studies for another year, and Qiao Lin decisively refused - I want to move forward and not look back.
Jolene said to her parents, "Haven't I had a bad year, no one knows what will happen tomorrow, I want to take advantage of the good time to go out and see the outside world." In the college entrance examination, one test is enough. ”
The family is all supportive of Jolene's decision, and Jolene is looking forward to her upcoming college life. This sense of expectation made her ignore her aunt's cynicism. She told her aunt, "My brothers and sisters are all great gods, and the family needs ordinary people like me to neutralize them", and my aunt was choked again.
But in front of Zhao Linlin, Qiao Lin didn't show too much joy. Because the miracle did not appear, Zhao Linlin's cultural class score was ten points behind the score line of the Central Academy of Fine Arts in previous years, and the dream of the Academy of Fine Arts was shattered.
Zhao Linlin did not hesitate and was very determined to repeat it. She was slapped by her father, so she ran to the house on Jixiang Road and asked Jolene to accompany her.
It's not that Zhao Linlin doesn't have a school to go to, but she doesn't want to go. She stubbornly didn't apply for any school, and went to the Central Academy of Fine Arts with all her heart, not only because of her agreement with Su Su, but also because she wanted to go too much.
She said: "Brother Qiao Nan told me that you are infinitely close to the best, why can't you go all out?
The award of calisthenics, when you are on stage, your whole body is glowing, I really envy it. But I've always been good or bad, I've never had any great results, and I've never been remembered. But this time, I really want to be the best. ”
"I'm behind you, my brother is right, you've seen the best, why compromise?"
"You're on the point, and from now on, I'm absolutely no longer compromised. Zhao Linlin smiled, suddenly hugged Qiao Lin, and said: "Actually, I have always been very grateful to you, last time I had a conflict with you, I still owe you a word of sorry, I shouldn't lose my temper with you." ”
"It's because you treat me as a good friend that you can get angry at me. ”
The two Lin hugged each other and cried and laughed, Zhao Leilei caught a glimpse from the outside, and made a grimace "slightly". The friendship between girls is really tired of being a crooked person.
However, Zhao Leilei showed great support for his sister's decision, and he even quarreled with the tyrant's father. He said to his father, "Dad, have you ever heard of 'dreams'? My sister actually talks about 'dreams', I never thought she was so cool! Dad, just this time, you have to support her." ”
Zhao's father was drunk and beat his son out in a rage: "Get out! Lao Tzu is serving you with delicious food and drink, but you are turning your elbow out, don't ask Lao Tzu for living expenses this month!"
Zhao Leilei returned in a huff, lost his source of living expenses with his sister, and lived on his grandmother's savings. Fortunately, Zhao Leilei has the love of his grandmother, and his grandmother's help has been sent over in a steady stream, and the family's expenses are not a problem.
The Zhao family sisters and brothers nested in the house on Jixiang Road and didn't go back, Zhao's mother was still very worried, but there was a wicked mother-in-law and an irritable husband by her side, so it was difficult for her to pull out. She secretly came to see the children under the pretext of coming to the city to deliver goods. It doesn't matter if this looks good, only a few days after the results came out, Zhao Linlin's cheeks were completely sunken.
Mother Zhao was anxious and angry, and pulled her to find Li Lanzhi. She complained: "Teacher Li, you are a reasonable person, you are here to judge. She studied art and wanted to go to other places for training, did we send her? She went to various places for art exams, and the money was like water, but did we give us any money? That's it, we don't expect her to be admitted to a good school, just to be admitted to a university. But she didn't go to study if she was admitted, she had to be admitted to the Central Academy of Fine Arts. With the word 'central', is that something that ordinary people can test? You don't weigh how many pounds and taels you have?"
Zhao Linlin didn't say a word at first, but only when she heard it shouted out from behind: "No matter how difficult it is to take the exam there, I have passed my professional class! I don't care, I have to take the exam, if you don't give money, I will be like Brother Yang Shu, working part-time while preparing for the exam." Even if I take the exam for ten years, I will take the Central Academy of Fine Arts!"
Zhao's mother was obviously also shocked by her daughter's decision, it seems that her daughter is not like a piece of boiled red sweet potato, soft and without a backbone.
Li Lanzhi thought for a while and said: "Zhao Linlin gave up applying for the exam, and our school lost an undergraduate place, which is a pity." But we respect the opinions of students, especially students like Zhao Linlin who have a strong goal, and we fully support them. ”
Zhao's mother couldn't find support from Li Lanzhi, so she took her daughter away. Zhao Linlin followed behind her mother, drooping her head vigorously. Their mother and daughter walked down the street in an almost unchanged pattern, without any hint of intimacy.
Zhao's mother spat out a long mouthful of phlegm, "Cough-poof!" The phlegm landed on the sidewalk, causing everyone to look sideways. Zhao Linlin felt that her mother was very ashamed, and she was far away from her
Some.
After walking for a while, Zhao's mother turned back to her and asked, "Why do you want to go to the Central Academy of Fine Arts?
"It's not just for her, it's my dream to go there to study design. ”
Mother Zhao sneered, and in the middle-aged and elderly people, the word "dream" was really full of embarrassment and greasy.
Zhao Linlin mustered up the courage and said to her mother: "Xu Na's dream is to learn Chinese and become a literary celebrity in the future; Qiao Lin's dream is to learn foreign languages and hope to interview Kaka one day." I like to be friends with them because they know what they're after and they're cool...... They all have dreams, so why can't I have them? I'm fat, I'm not good-looking, I'm not smart, I'm not even qualified to dream?"
The more Zhao Linlin said, the more aggrieved she became: "Qiao Lin and Xu Na both support me, you are my mother, why do you want to pour cold water on me again and again, saying that I can't do this, that can't do it? I have lived enough of this life, even if I don't have your support, I have to go all the way to the dark." ”
After she finished speaking, a bus just stopped, and Zhao Linlin got into the carriage regardless of where it went. Zhao's mother cursed twice at her back, and after the bus drove away, she was stunned again.
Zhao Linlin sat aimlessly in the car, opened the window, and the cool sea breeze poured in at once, blowing her cheeks painfully. She got out of the car at a tunnel entrance, stuffed her MP3, and walked into the dark tunnel.
It's just a matter of 10 points, and you can get three more multiple-choice questions right, or solve an algebra problem...... Even if it only takes one class, you can memorize ten questions, but why can't you do it?!
She tried, but it was too late. Even if she has half the tenacity of Jolene, she can easily pass the score line!
It's more frustrating than anything else, and I can't swallow it anyway. When she was bullied by Shen Chunxiao, Zhao Linlin was never so annoyed, she squatted in the dark tunnel, pulling her hair frantically.
Everyone said that it was tiring to pursue their dreams, and Zhao Linlin had thought about it, but what she had thought about was the tiredness of a superficial taste, not the tiredness that was enough to destroy people's hearts.
Her ears echoed Jay Chou's "All the Way North", as a die-hard fan of Dong Chou, she watched "Initial D" a few years ago. She was just a freshman in high school that year, and she didn't understand any plot, but she remembered that there were a lot of handsome guys in it, the boys who could drift were very cool, and the shots of racing cars were very burning.
Now that I think about it, Takumi was just an ordinary boy who delivered tofu when he practiced drifting, and he didn't think of being a racing driver at all; after embarking on the road of racing, various challenges came one after another, but in the face of various challenges, Takumi was still undefeated. This kind of plot can be said to be very cool.
Zhao Linlin was very happy when she took painting as a hobby, but after becoming a professional, painting became a burden. She longs for Takumi's undefeated ability to paddle through with a beautiful drift at every turn, but real life is a failure, and the road after the turn is pitch black.
Yes, there are no miracles in life, and after the fantasy, she is still bland, wearing the largest size of jeans and combing the most ordinary ponytail. In her junior year of high school, her fortunes did not improve. However, she still can't give up painting, that's her life, her all.
At the end of the song, she gradually walked out of the tunnel, and at the combination of light and shadow, she finally crouched on the ground and began to cry.
