Chapter 16: The Rift

When the three siblings returned home, it was already dark, and they passed by the large warehouse at the entrance of the village, and there was no movement inside.

For the first exam after the resumption of the college entrance examination, county government departments at all levels issued a hard document, requiring all educated youths who are preparing for the exam to take a three-day holiday in advance to prepare for the college entrance examination, so those who do not want to take the exam will also sign up to go back to rest.

Put it in Shenjiawa Village, because Shen Guangshan was already open, there were no water conservancy projects to be cleared and dug in the early winter, so he opened a great grace, so that the educated youth could wait at home until the list was released, and those who couldn't pass the exam came back.

"It seems that Sister Xiaoyun can't come back. ”

Xiao Wu's face was full of regret, Shen Tiejun pretended not to hear clearly, wrapped his clothes and walked home, Zhou Province at the end of November had entered the cold winter, the cold wind was blowing, and the enthusiasm for successfully being admitted to the university was also cold, turning into the main road of the village, he saw Shen Laoshi squatting in the leeward, and hurriedly ran over: "Dad, why are you squatting here, the sun is gone." ”

With both hands, Shen Honest's small eyes roamed over the faces of the three of them, and his voice was dry: "You guys, how are your test results?

"No, Dad, let's go home and say, don't worry, it's okay!"

His heart trembled, Shen Tiejun's eyes were sour, and he hugged Shen Laoshi's arm and said, "Dad, don't listen to my eldest brother's nonsense, we're fine, I'm going to check it this time, just to reassure you, don't think about it." ”

The rough big hand patted the back of Shen Tiejun's hand, Shen nodded honestly, and walked with a much straighter back: "You're okay, I'm relieved, although you have to study, but the body is the capital, without a good body, without that life to enjoy, isn't it in vain?" I heard that you did well in the exam?"

A layer of ruddy appeared on the dark old face, and his small eyes were full of expectation, Shen Tiejun snorted, lowered his voice and said: "Dad, you just put your heart in your stomach, the third sister will definitely be able to be admitted to the university, but Xiao Wu is not necessarily, her score is on the score lineβ€”β€”"

"Good, good!"

Happily speaking, Shen Laoshi turned over and grabbed Shen Tiejun's hand, his face full of anticipation: "Si'er, what about you? Dad wants to know if you can pass the exam?"

"That's for sure!"

Shen Tiejun saw that his father still had a traditional concept in his heart, no matter how good Shen Damei and Shen Tielin were, they would not be able to support the lintel of the Shen family in the future, let alone the name of Guangzong Yaozu County, so the answer was extremely refreshing, and patted his chest: "Don't look at whose seed we are, right, Dad?"

"Hahahaha-"

Laughing heartily, Shen Tiejun, who was shocked, hurriedly slapped his father's hand: "Dad, the news hasn't been announced yet, and then we'll blind those people's dog eyes, you know, if you say it earlier, it won't work!"

"Yes, yes!"

Shen Laoshi hurriedly shut up, shaking his head and humming a small tune: "Hmph, hahahaha~"

Quietly gave Shen Tiejun a thumbs up, Shen Damei looked like a matter of course, and said playfully: "That's right, Dad, our old Shen family has the top door of the little four, you will wait to enjoy Qingfu in the future!

The corners of his mouth twitched, Shen Tiejun automatically lined up this sentence outside his ears, what is the matter of buying bones, the resumption of the college entrance examination, it is almost the same as opening a department to win people's hearts, and the master returned home in the night, and there was a burst of speechless joy.

Winter is coming, Shen Daliang was called away by Shen Laoshi at dawn every day, Xiaoliu was going to school, and Shen Tiejun was left to sleep in a dark place wrapped in a big quilt, Shen Laoshi and Shen Wang's family didn't care, it was a cat winter.

Shen Damei and Shen Tielin are not so good, every day after breakfast with a basket, they went out to be a dung picker, Shen was honestly happy, and asked Xiaoliu for a month off, the school teachers learned that she did well in the college entrance examination this time, and naturally they would be happy to push the boat, and also save those over-the-top questions to hurt their self-esteem.

There is a student who is a student who is against the sky, and it is not easy to be a teacher, and she has not been a teacher in these years, so she can only wait for her to pass the exam by herself, and then she will have face, self-esteem or something.

Shen Tiejun didn't want to go to the ground, because he didn't wear it, he didn't have autumn clothes and pants, and it felt very warm when he wrapped his torn cotton jacket around his body, but he couldn't see the wind, as long as there was a wind coming in, the heat couldn't be retained at all.

The small ones are good to say, there are pottery night pots, and the big ones have to step on the banks of the Yellow River, holding secret documents in their hands, with machine guns in front and aircraft bombs in the back.

The dry toilet built with two wooden planks, Shen Tiejun was worried when he stepped on it, and his mind was wandering around, if he stepped on it wrongly, he would be in.

But my memory shows that everyone in my family seems to have practiced, and I have never heard of anyone in.

I don't know who came out on this day, the three babies of Shen Laoshi's family took the college entrance examination together, ready to try to see if there is a college life, and when this statement reached Shen Tiejun's ears, December was about to pass, but the call to wait never came.

When Shen Laoshi came back that day, his face was a little embarrassed, and he only drank some water for dinner at night, and at noon the next day, the loudspeaker sounded: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am Shen Guangshan, my son Shen Dahai has passed the physical examination, and now, my mother-in-law is giving everyone candy and cigarettes, I hope you don't dislike it, it can be regarded as sharing some joy!"

"Didn't get in this time?"

"Impossible, right?"

"Shen Dahai has been admitted!"

"Then why don't you have mine? There are also the third sister and the little five!"

Blinded four times, Shen Tiejun jumped up from the bed, pulled the big cotton jacket and wrapped it around the waist rope, and stopped wearing the socks on his feet, put on the big cotton shoes and went out of the room: "Third sister, third sister!"

Shen Damei's face was also pale, Shen Dahai had completed the physical examination, and the three of his brothers and sisters were stunned that they didn't even receive the notice, no wonder my father had that look yesterday!

"Let's go to the Education Bureau to check!"

Shen Tiejun only felt a burst of blood rushing to his head, and his eyes were already red: "Mother, dare to play like this, Lao Tzu wants his life!"

In an instant, all kinds of pictures flashed in Shen Tiejun's mind, was he replaced, was he detained by the enemy, or was he ignored? Or, which link was careless, and the volume was lost?

"Oh, are the grandparents at home? Oh, the third aunt and the fourth uncle are also there? ”

With the voice, a middle-aged woman took Shen Dahai into the courtyard gate, Shen Tiejun nodded stiffly, Shen Guangshan don't look at it as a branch secretary, according to the seniority of the elders, or his nephew, this woman is Shen Guangshan's wife Zhao Laidi, and there is no problem with calling Shen Wang's grandmother.

Is this here to mock people?

Shen Tiejun's face was a little embarrassed, he looked at Shen Dahai, who was cowering, and said: "Then congratulations to my grandson for being admitted to college, and it is not in vain that so many elders have bothered to teach you, since you are admitted to university, you can learn more if you can study more in the future." ”

Zhao Laidi was stunned, the joy on her face froze, the sugar in her hand was not handed over, and it was not taken back, and people didn't shout wrong, their own son, according to generation, don't you have to call people grandpa?

"Hehe, eat sugar, eat sugar~"

The sugar in his hand was still stuffed into Shen Tielin's hand, Zhao Laidi nodded at the silent Shen Wang, turned around and pulled down his face, and glared at Shen Dahai fiercely: "Go!"

"Little Four, didn't you say you wanted to investigate? Hurry up, you have to say whether you are dead or alive!"

Shen Wang said and took out a bag from his arms, took out two ten-yuan bills, stuffed them into Shen Tiejun's hands, turned his head to look at Shen Damei and said, "You sisters and brothers go together, Xiaosi is behind you, Damei, you are out, do you know?!"

The fair-skinned face turned a little whiter, and Shen Damei felt a grievance in her chest, knowing that this was the old lady who asked her to prepare to take the blame, she bit her lip and nodded: "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely protect Xiaosi." ”

"Mother, my sister is a woman, let her come forward, what's the matter-"

Shen Tiejun said and spoke, he was stunned by Shen Wang's can't go on, it was the first time he saw this kind of look from his mother, he had never seen it in his previous life, and he had never heard such a voice: "It's that she is a woman, and she always has to splash out the water, my mother sees that you are really sensible recently, why are you confused now?!

"No, no, no, no!"

With his hands swinging, Shen Tiejun swallowed his saliva, he is also a parent and a child, his grandchildren are all admitted to college, and he has to make a choice between his son and daughter, how cruel it should be for a parent, when he glanced at Shen Damei, he saw that the third sister's eyes were red, and her chest was rising and falling rapidly, knowing that she was also wronged.

In the previous life, the third sister and the old lady had never hurt each other so much, after this incident, no matter what the result was, there was really an irreparable rift between the third sister and the old lady!

Shen Tiejun's feet didn't stop, Shen Damei left after him, Shen Tielin pursed his lips and looked at Shen Wang's family, threw the sugar in his hand into the basket containing dung, turned around and carried himself out of the door.

In the courtyard half a fence high, Shen Wang's body shook, covered his mouth and entered the hall, and closed the door with a bang, not wanting the half of the fan that was often removed, but for some reason, it fell to the ground, revealing a dejected face.

Click, a raindrop hit the iron basin of the courtyard, and the rain that followed fell on the ground, and in an instant the sky and the earth were shrouded in a curtain of rain.
