Chapter 5: Fifteen Moons and Sixteen Rounds
After the banquet, Chen Qiang's family began to prepare for his schooling.
Military schools are different from other colleges and universities, and they report about half a month earlier than other colleges and universities every year.
Therefore, in less than half a month, Chen Qiang will leave home and report to Henan Province, thousands of miles away.
When it comes to preparing for school, Chen Qiang doesn't know anything and doesn't care about it.
There was only one thing on his mind, and that was to play.
I'm going to leave my hometown, and I don't know when I will meet those friends and buddies in the future.
For Chen Qiang's heartlessness, his family was excited, but there was no meaning of complaining.
After all, the children are eighteen years old, have their own opinions, and have their own life circles, so let him be as presumptuous as he wants before going to school!
Just after breakfast, a group of classmates came running over again.
These guys all came with Lu Gang.
In the entire three years of high school, except for Lu Gang, he was basically the only one who knew that Chen Qiang's family lived in Tunji, ten miles away from the outskirts of the town, and because Chen Qiang's time in school was really limited, there were not many classmates who had a good relationship with him.
However, now that graduation is imminent, everyone is about to go their separate ways, and even the students who were a little conflicted in the past are now relieved.
Just like one of the classmates named Zheng Wentai, I remember that not long after the two were promoted to Liunan No. 2 Middle School, they became best friends because of their common love for literature.
Middle school students in the 90s, there was a craze for making pen pals at that time.
At that time, Chen Qiang met a foreign pen pal through the journal "Middle Age Times", and the two often corresponded and communicated.
Once, when Chen Qiang and Zheng Wentai were in a Chinese class, they made an appointment to write a letter to the pen pal together to see who wrote the most.
As a result, in forty-five minutes of a class, Chen Qiang wrote eight pages of letterhead, while Zheng Wentai wrote twelve pages!
This result lasted until he graduated from high school, and Zheng Wentai's Chinese graduation score was four points higher than Chen Qiang's, and he got the highest score in the school.
Of course, after three years of baptism, the relationship between the two has long faded and is never the same.
But this does not prevent normal interaction between the two young people.
Looking at each other and smiling at each other, it is actually more suitable for the true portrayal of their age.
"Wentai, I heard that you were admitted to Shenyang University of Technology, congratulations!"
Chen Qiang smiled and said hello.
Zheng Wentai pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said with a hearty smile, "Your kid is admitted to a military school, much better than me!"
Lu Gang on the side was impatient.
"Alright, are you two deliberately provoking me?
Anyway, if you all got into college, and I didn't even get a 200 points, you don't even think about my feelings?"
Don't look at Lu Gang with a dissatisfied look, but Chen Qiang knows that Lu Gang just said that, he has never liked to study, and he has never paid attention to his own achievements, but in order to alleviate the embarrassment between him and Zheng Wentai, he interjected.
Patting Lu Gang's shoulder in understanding, Chen Qiang waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go to Nanshan for a walk!"
A group of six young men was just about to go out, but was blocked at the door by his sister Chen Yan.
"Second brother, where are you going? Don't forget, Sister Yanran said two days ago that she would come to see you today, and she asked you to accompany her. ”
Hearing this, Chen Qiang looked at the other five brothers, and at the same time, Lu Gang and the others also looked at them with strange eyes.
Especially Lu Gang, who was lying in the ear of his iron buddy Liu Xiaowei at this time, muttered quietly, and the other three also came over with great interest when they saw this.
I only heard Lu Gang whisper, "I've seen that Shui Yanran several times in Chen Qiang's house, and she looks so beautiful!"
Chen Qiang didn't care about Lu Gang's gossip, rolled his eyes, tore off a piece of paper from the calendar in his room, picked up the pen, wrote down a few big characters in a dragon flying phoenix dance, and handed it to the little sister and said, "When she comes, give this to her." Brothers, let's withdraw!"
Lu Gang and the others poured out, and looked at the words written by Chen Qiang with a sideways face, Liu Xiaowei deserved to be a student who was about to graduate from the normal school, and he understood it at a glance, and read it out.
"Fifteen moons and sixteen rounds? Chen Qiang, are you kid mistaken? Isn't today the seventh day of the lunar calendar?"
Zheng Wentai, who was walking at the back, smiled and pushed Liu Xiaofan, "That's the code word of the young couple, which means that today's date is postponed to tomorrow."
It seems that Chen Qiang is a good kid, he is not a guy who is heavy on sex and light on friends, so in order to accompany us, he left his girlfriend aside. ”
Behind him, Chen Yan took the note written by his second brother, and he didn't understand it at first, until Zheng Wentai explained, he stomped his foot angrily, and his face was full of unhappiness.
The six young men played all morning, covered in stinky sweat, and simply took a bath in the muddy place at the bottom of the mountain.
"Brothers, let's not go back at noon today, let's go to the restaurant in the town, I'll have a treat!"
Liu Xiaowei put on his clothes in a dashing manner and waved his hand.
Chen Qiang looked at Lu Gang when he heard this.
He had heard Lu Gang mention it before, Liu Xiaofan's family conditions were not very good, why was he so generous today?
Among the few people present, according to Chen Qiang's understanding, the best condition is Lu Gang, this guy's father opened a tofu factory in the town, and his life is quite prosperous.
Lu Gang smiled, "Chen Qiang, after you go to school in two days, Xiaowei will go to work, so it is right for him to have a treat." ”
Several people looked at Liu Xiaowei with envy when they heard this.
Liu Xiaowei graduated from middle school and was admitted to a normal school, although he only had a secondary school degree, but as soon as he graduated, he was assigned a job and became a glorious people's teacher, which can be regarded as a good job.
"Then let Xiaowei break the bank, haha-"
A group of brothers went ashore with their shoulders on their backs and headed for the town.
In the late 90s, commercial activity in Liunan Town became more and more prosperous, and shops dealing in the food and beverage industry were everywhere.
However, Liu Xiaowei, who is about to join the work, is sensible quite early because of his poor family background since he was a child.
Even if you are inviting guests to eat, you should choose a small restaurant that is not too high-grade.
Of course, as Liu Xiaowei, who is about to enter the teaching industry, his eloquence is also quite good.
"Let me tell you, the chicken wonton restaurant in front of you, the food there is quite delicious, and it is also affordable, let's go over and have a good meal!"
Fellow travelers, the family conditions are not too different, so no one minds the grade of the hotel, as long as they are happy.
However, before they could reach the wonton restaurant, they saw a middle-aged man with a fat body walking over at the door of the Liunan Restaurant in front of them, holding a black big brother wearing a leather holster in his hand, holding his stomach and walking over with a puzzled face.
"Xiaoqiang, you are Xiaoqiang of Chen Xibin's family, right?"
