At the end of June, it was the hottest time of the year, with a suffocating heat wave rolling in the air, flags hanging over the train station, no pedestrians in the square, and a few fruit and tea stalls in the shade of the roadside in the distance.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Shen Tiejun carried the bag out of the station, and felt that the soles of the black sandals tended to soften, and at the same time, some of the passengers who left the station were picked up, and some were identifying the direction like him.

Seeing the ticket office in the distance, Shen Tiejun's heart moved, and he took his bag to the ticket office to line up, and when it was his turn, he took out his student ID and handed it in: "Hello comrade, ask for something, can I buy a sleeper with a student ID?"

"Yangcheng Foreign Chinese Academy? You can buy it at the county level or above, young man, you were admitted so quickly? No, it was sent last year? You are on vacation now? Graduate students in English literature?"

Confirming that he could buy back the sleeper, Shen Tiejun thanked him and left, when he came to school, it was the school that booked the ticket uniformly, and it cost more than 100 yuan after discounting, but he didn't expect him to be alone in a box, and the last time he squeezed the carriage, it was completely heaven and earth, and it was comfortable.

Money, now it's a little, in addition to the watch and VCR in Chu Dazhao's bag, there are also some coupons and tickets of Zhou Province, it can be seen that he also used his thoughts, this is what he found out when he brought it back to the dormitory, think about it as a snake in Yangcheng, it shouldn't be difficult to get this thing after having money, after his training, he has evolved into a big sister, and he is going farther and farther on the road of a strong woman.

When he arrived at the big white wooden box next to the fruit stall, Shen Tiejun took out money to buy a 2-cent ice cream, and he didn't want the boss to collect the money, so he looked him up and down, turned over and touched something, and put it in front of him: "Young man, do you want a watch, the goods from Hong Kong Island, 80 yuan don't need a ticket." ”

Speechlessly, he glanced at the goods in the boss's hand, Shen Tiejun was also idle, his right wrist lit up, and he said: "It's not as dark as you, look at what I bought for 20 yuan in Yangcheng, how much did you enter, boss?"

Eyes swept over his wrist, the boss retracted it and stuffed it under the fruit, his mind didn't know what he was thinking, and after a while, he said, "Young man, what are you doing in Yangcheng?"

"Go to school, it's not a holiday, go home and see. ”

Shen Tiejun's accent changed, and he didn't want the boss to turn over and take out a box of cigarettes, so he smoked a cigarette and handed it over, looking around with his eyes: "Is the young man interested in making some money, I will take the 40 yuan in your hand, how much you want." ”

With a cognition of the lower limit of the boss in his heart, Shen Tiejun hurriedly waved his hand: "You pull it down, I buy it and bring it to you are two different things, goodbye!"

The railway station and bus station in Recheng are far away, Shen Tiejun finished eating a piece of ice cream, and the car was only half gone, and the navy blue vest on his body was already wet and dry, with a layer of salt flowers, and he was dizzy and dizzy sitting in the car.

Chunjiang plumbing duck prophet, it is undeniable that the sensitive sense of smell of the Chinese people, all the way to the hot city roadside, on both sides of the three-way or alley mouth, fruit stalls, tea stalls, and sell boiled water.

When I passed by here last year, there were no such things on the streets on both sides, and the little old lady with red armbands was not busy anymore, sitting on the edge of the stall and talking and laughing with people, and these scenes were rarely seen in Yangcheng.

Alas, it is worthy of being the secretary who will enter the eyes of the law in the future, and the dozen or so red handprints in Xiaogang Village are placed elsewhere, I am afraid that without waiting for the big guy above to find out, the grave grass can support mosquito nets.

When he got out of the car, Shen Tiejun took three steps and made two steps into the hall of the bus station, left the direct sun, wiped his face and didn't take a breath, and a voice sounded next to him: "Fourth brother, you are taller than before!"

The round little face was imprinted in his eyes, Shen Tiejun's eyes lit up, he hadn't seen him for a year, Shen Tielin seemed to have grown up overnight, wearing really good short sleeves he sent, and a pair of crystal clear sandals on his feet, but the yellow hair on his head proved her age, and immediately gestured: "You are also taller, it turns out that I remember coming to me, much fatter than at home." ”

"That's it!"

Shen Tielin glanced at his friend and said, "This is my classmate, Zhou Muhua, who is one year older than me. Sister Hua, this is my fourth brother, didn't you say you wanted to be friends with him?"

Zhou Muhua blushed a little, glared at Shen Tielin fiercely, pursed his lips and said hello: "Hello, fourth brother of the Shen family." ”

"You're good, sister of the Zhou family!"

Shen Tiejun glanced at Shen Tielin, this girl looked very good, she had time to worry about him, looked at the watch on her wrist, and said, "Have you bought a ticket?"

His gaze swept over the fourth brother's wrist, Shen Tielin glanced at his chest, and said curiously: "After buying it, there is still more than an hour, fourth brother, where is your school emblem?"

"What are you doing with that? You can't eat again. ”

Knowing that this guy is more showy, Shen Tiejun still took out Liangliang from his pocket, everyone who went to college this year will send one, and stretched out his hand: "Give me the ticket, so I won't delay your study, when will you have a holiday?"

"Alas, I knew I was also enrolled in liberal arts. ”

Shen Tielin's little face suddenly fell, and he took out the ticket from his pocket and handed it over: "We still have half a month to take the exam, and I can only leave after the exam is confirmed and the results are confirmed, fourth brother, when will you start school?"

"Me? They start school on September 8th. ”

After taking the ticket and putting it away, Shen Tiejun opened the canvas bag in his hand, took out a small women's watch from it, tore off the plastic packaging, and handed it over: "Put it on and I'll take a look." ”

"Wow, this is, is this a ladies' watch?"

Jumping three feet high, Shen Tielin looked at the watch in the fourth brother's hand before, which was similar to the one sold in the store, who knew that what he took out was much smaller, and his face was flushed when he held it in his hand: "This is for me?"

"It's not for you, it's for whom?"

Shen Tiejun smiled, seeing that Shen Tielin couldn't bring it in a hurry, he put down the bag to help her put it on, pinched his wrist and looked at it, nodded and said: "Well, it's okay, remember that this thing can't get wet, it looks mechanical, it's actually quartz, and you have to take it off when you wash your hands." ”

"Quartz's?"

Shen Tielin said curiously, stared at the watch, Shen Tiejun pointed to the watch needle and said: "You see it walking, it is jumping, and it is different from the coherent drive of machinery, so it is cheaper than a mechanical watch, and it also costs a lot of money." ”

"Well, I know, thank you, Fourth Brother! You're so good to me!"

Shen Tielin hugged his arm and smiled all over his face.

"You stupid, you're my sister, can I treat you badly?

The probe poked her forehead, Shen Tiejun also felt it, and the parting when she was sent to school seemed to be just yesterday, it had been a year in the blink of an eye, and she had grown into a big girl, and said: "Study hard, don't let our father down, this is my biggest thanks, okay, I won't delay you, go to school." ”

Zhou Muhua watched the brother and sister say goodbye enviously, and finally nodded at Shen Tiejun: "Fourth brother of the Shen family, goodbye!"

"Well, goodbye, sister of the Zhou family!"

Shen Tiejun sent the two away a little distractedly, not because of the late holiday of Recheng University, but because of the long holiday outside the sheep, which began in early June and started on the first of September, which was roughly about three months.

After last year's upturn, everything is back on track this year, Professor Lan asked him to return to school before October 8 to help the admitted graduate students go through various procedures, which can be regarded as setting a final date for him to return to school.

It is said that as the only graduate student, it is the time to study with his tutor during the summer vacation, but Shen Tiejun's military facts have proved that he is a competent and qualified graduate student.

The colleges and universities of the foreign language department say more and say less and less, but when it comes down to the English category, this circle is considered very small.

The country has now realized the weight of improving English, and has not estimated the importance of this subject in the future, and the reason why Professor Lan has taught him sheep-like discipline is also because he has joined the editorial board of English textbooks for primary and secondary schools, and he has not taken much care of him, plus he has learned well himself.

The most important thing is Professor Lan's loving heart, and he doesn't want him to come into contact with that circle too early - the literati of the Republic have been famous for their lightness since ancient times, Shen Tiejun vaguely guessed this.

Shen Tiejun's butterfly effect is highlighted - the importance of English has increased, in the 1979 college entrance examination, English scores were included in the total score by 30 percent, and this change will not appear until next year, in the 1980 college entrance examination.

After buying a few bread at the door sales point and nibbling on it, Shen Tiejun found a lot of young men squatting on the road, thought about it and carried his bag into the waiting room, and the sweaty man at the door pointed to the bag in his hand: "Open it, check!"

"What's wrong?"

When Shen Tiejun got on the train, he also checked, but the main thing was to check the person, where to go, what to do, whether there was a letter of introduction, a certificate from the unit or something, he took out his student ID card, and was waved away, but there is no treatment to open the bag and check it now, otherwise those big bags and small packages for sale will not all have to be checked?

Of course, this idea can't be said, Shen Tiejun put the ticket and student ID card in his mouth, looked at the people who were not in the way, opened the canvas bag in his hand, and took out a note from the side pocket of the bag, and the staff looked at the things inside, and was already blindfolded: "This, it's all yours?"

"Well, this time I went home and brought it to my family, well, this is the sales procedure and my ID. Shen Tiejun said and handed out the note and student ID.

The staff subconsciously took it, glanced at the photos and people on the student ID, and opened the note again, and on the sales details without beginning and end, it was stamped with the red seal of a friendship overseas Chinese store, nodded quickly, and returned it: "It turned out to be a college student, disrespectful and disrespectful..."

With a smile on his face, Shen Tiejun took back his documents and pulled up his bag, and said curiously: "I wasn't so strict when I got on the bus in Yangcheng, I saw that you looked like you were facing a great enemy?"

"Alas, don't mention it, you slow down on the road and take care of the bag!" wiped the sweat from his head, and the staff shook their heads.
