In August 1978, the weather in Beijing continued to be hot, and people's hearts became more impetuous.

That month, except that the central government announced the abolition of the Red Guard organization in the school. The Beijing Municipal Bureau of Culture held a conference to implement the policy, in addition to the two major events of rehabilitating Zhaoxue and restoring the reputation of 28 leading cadres such as Cao Yu, Zhao Qiyang, Jiang Feng, Hu Sha, and Ma Lianliang, Li Zaiwen (Xiaobai Yushuang), Xun Huisheng, Ye Shengzhang, Hou Xirui, Qin Zhongwen and other veteran artists. There are three other contents that have the greatest impact on the people.

First, the summer college entrance examination list in 1978.

Second, the lawyer system was restored in Beijing.

Third, the large-scale literary and artistic series "October" was launched.

And these three things, especially the college entrance examination, have attracted the most attention.

This is not only because this college entrance examination is the first unified proposition in the country, and it is admitted by province. It is also because this matter is most closely related to the interests of the people, and its impact on everyone is immediate.

If anyone can be named on the gold list, it means that their life has embarked on a smooth road. will gain the respect, envy and jealousy of countless people around you.

It is not a lie to say that it is a carp jumping over the dragon gate and changing its fate overnight.

This matter is specific to Hong Yanwu, although he doesn't care much, and can even be said to be indifferent, thinking that it has nothing to do with himself. But the two people who were destined to have a lot of connections with him in this life turned out to be high school one by one

And the closest to him is the Shui Lan who has always been at odds with him when he was a child, but he has a good sister again.

On August 15, Shui Lan, who was in the suburbs of Beijing, went home with the admission letter from Tsinghua University, but Shui Gengsheng and Aunt Shui were very happy.

They don't have a son in their lives, which is the biggest regret, but who would have thought that raising girls would be angry. The eldest went to Beijing University, and the second was admitted to Jinghua, and no family in the entire Furu had their dignity.

Lift, rejoice, spirit!

Aunt Shui was also emptied of most of the depression in her heart because Shui Qing got back a child, and for the first time in several months, her face was flushed.

As soon as the dusty Shui Lan entered the door, she not only waited for the second daughter to wash her face, change her clothes, and pack her luggage. He also assigned Shui Gengsheng and Shui Lian, the three girls who had been on summer vacation, to buy vegetables, noodles, and meat in the non-staple food store.

This is going to be handled personally, and at noon, even fried noodles with stewed meat, I want to make up for the second daughter.

Shui Lan This is also the first time to see the child brought back by Shui Qing. But before she could take a closer look, she was not happy at first glance when she heard that the child had taken the surname of the Shui family and named Shui Xiaoying.

She wondered to herself, what is this? It's like her mother has given birth to a fourth child. Looking at my sister's meaning, I plan to keep it at home. This is unclear, and it is difficult for others to explain it.

Then, she had to hug the child for a while. But the child cried without saying anything, and soaked her with urine. She was even less interested. After changing his clothes, he sighed and complained that Shui Qing was stupid.

She said that once she had this child, it would not only cause a lot of trouble to the family, but also affect her sister's study. It's even troublesome for my sister to find a partner in the future. The most important thing is that the child has not yet registered for the hukou, and it will be a problem to go to kindergarten and school in the future.

Shui Qing was born with a good temperament, and he didn't see Shui Lan during the Spring Festival. I miss this sister, and I feel that she is for my own good, so I patiently explain to my sister.

She said that Xiaoying is the child of her classmate Ran Liying. The child's father can't be found, and there is no one else in the Ran family. She doesn't care who cares? What's more, this is also Ran Liying's last wish, which she promised in person at the bedside.

But she didn't expect that Shui Lan would scoff at this, and only evaluated her with the word "pedantic". He also said that there are more such things now. There are many young men and women who have children and send them to their fellow villagers. actually persuaded her to send the child to the welfare home as soon as possible.

This Shui Qing was really angry, she said, "Shui Lan, my sister will never cause trouble to the family, and she will not trouble you in the future." As long as I graduate and have a job, I will take the child out as soon as possible and raise it myself. Don't forget, I helped my mother bring you up, washing, washing, feeding,, urine, what haven't I done? I don't believe I can't support this child on my own!"

In this way, the two sisters blushed and blushed for the first time.

Shui Lan felt that Shui Qing didn't know the hearts of good people, and he was anxious for a wild child to be with his sister.

Shui Qing felt that Shui Lan was becoming more and more selfish and lacked the least sympathy.

Because Ran Liying is not a stranger to Shui Lan, Shui Lan was like a fart when she was a child, pestering others to learn origami, learn to turn ropes, learn to dye nails, and learn to braid twist braids, which is closer than her own sister.

How can you not even have a little compassion now? It's too heartless.

In short, the more the two sisters talked, the more they talked. In the end, it was because they were all cultured people and they didn't want their neighbors to hear the jokes, so they restrained themselves. There was no big fuss.

It's just that in this way, even if they stay in the same room again, the sisters will have nothing to say, and they will faintly get involved.

This embarrassment lasted not only until Shui Gengsheng and Shui Lian returned, but also until the meal was served.

But fortunately, the busy figure of the mother in and out, and the kind and kind smiling face of the father, can warm people's hearts and nourish emotions more than anything else.

So when it was time to eat, the awkwardness of Shui Qing and Shui Lan was temporarily thrown to the back of his mind.

The two of them and Shui Lian both showed their well-behaved and supple sides, sitting at the dinner table together, feeling the warm atmosphere brought by this rare family reunion in recent years.

Aunt Shui served the food to the table while greeting her children affectionately.

"Qing'er, Xiaolan, Xiaolian, move the chopsticks. Don't wait for Mom, delay any longer, but let your dad eat it. ”

"Oh, who's the squeeze? I'm hungry wolf, can I eat me?"

Shui Gengsheng was stunned when he heard this, and after speaking, he sat down and poured himself a glass of wine. But seeing the three flowers in front of him, he smiled again. also gave the daughters meat one by one, and couldn't help but praise the daughters.

"You are all good boys. Qing'er went to Beijing University, Xiaolan went to Jinghua, Xiaolian studied well, and in my opinion, he will also be a seedling of the university in the future. It's really a fight for your parents. Look at our family, your mother nailed buckles on the street, and your father shaved people's heads, and no one looked down on our family in the past. But it's good now, we won't be more than adults than children in the future. As long as you pin your shiny school emblems on your chests and raise your heads to walk down the aisle, your parents will raise their eyebrows. ”

Aunt Shui sat down on the side, also helping the interface.

"Yes, your dad is right. At the beginning, I was most afraid that Qing'er would not be able to pass the exam. The second child of Lao Hong's family has been admitted, if our family doesn't have a college student, won't Furuli show their family? Okay, now it's okay, let's have two college students out at once. It's almost enough to make my mother happy. I don't think they have anything else to do with the Hong family? A junior college student from a teacher's college, compared to my daughter who went to Beijing University and Jinghua, they are not qualified......

It's just that the more she talks later, the more unpleasant it becomes, which makes Shui Qingke a little unbearable.

"Mom, what kind of psychology do you have? Are you happy that others are unlucky, but afraid that others are good? Don't be such a small citizen, why did you forget that other people's are good? Xiaoying's milk is thanks to Xiao Wu's order. He and Izumiko have been helping us a lot these days. ”

Aunt Shui gave her daughter a blank look.

"What do you say, one yard to one yard. If it is really the other way around, the second child of the Hong family was admitted to Beijing University and Tsinghua University. Besides, how many things did the third child of the Hong family destroy me when he was a child? How many times did he get angry with me? He also beat your father. This is now sensible, and he owes us that. What's more, I'm afraid that he won't be well-intentioned, people say that he is ...... to our Xiaolan."

This water lan was not listened to, and he hummed angrily and poked his chopsticks.

"Mom, people are spreading it, and you are still passing it on. You can't hope that I'll be better, and you have to associate me with a hooligan? Is he worthy? Disgusting or not disgusting? You all stay away from him in the future, and you won't have a long memory of suffering!"

"Shuilan! Don't talk about other people! We have to be grateful if we get the good of others. Why are you so high-minded......"

Shui Qing really felt aggrieved for Hong Yanwu, and couldn't help but stop it.

But Shui Lan never swallowed his anger. I was even more angry when I heard this.

"We didn't ask him, he was cheap. Maybe what he was thinking in his heart, don't you treat everyone as a good person, stupid or not? Che, this world is also strange, the two labor prisoners actually returned to the city, better than the educated youth, and more than our family has a way, but I have to rely on them to order milk......"

Yes, seeing it, the two sisters are going to say "rub" again.

Fortunately, Shui Gengsheng knocked on the chopsticks on the edge of the bowl in time, and transferred the contradiction again, so that he could hold down the two daughters.

"Look at the two of you, the two girls, why are you all like hairy boys now? As soon as you go to college, you have a temper! Can you still get married? Yes, it's all your mother's fault, nothing is blind and crooked, and the other thing is that she is jealous. Listen to Dad, you don't care about others, let's go to school wholeheartedly. It's better to have a good future after graduating from college. What do we do with other people's family affairs? We have to be single-minded in going to school, just like my dad shaves someone else's beard, and if I get distracted, I have to give people blood, what do you think other people can do......

But when she pressed the gourd and lifted the scoop, Aunt Shui was not happy to be squeezed by herself, and she sneered at her when she heard it.

"If you have to go to school, you can go to school, and if you shave, can that be the same thing?

Shui Gengsheng couldn't help blushing, still muttering strong words.

"Uneducated...... I can't say a word without culture......? What do you keep getting involved with a housewife who has retired from illness? Besides, why is it not the same thing? I have been in elementary school since I was much more difficult than going to school, and I really have to fight the master......."

It's just that neither of the husband and wife expected that their bickering would make the smallest ripple unbearable. At this point, she couldn't help but protest loudly.

"Oh, what's the matter with you guys today? Everyone is noisy, and on a hot day, can't you eat well? Mom, Dad, you are. Isn't it just that my second sister is going to college again? What's the big deal, isn't it?"

This is good, exposing dangerous thoughts. Shui Gengsheng, the head of the family, has to give priority to educating his daughter.

"As for it? What do you know at such a young age? After graduating from college, you are a cadre, you have a good job, you have good benefits, and everyone looks up to you. If you really get in, let others blush. In the afternoon, Dad has to put two more big whips on your sister, and this time I have to show my face......"

But as soon as he said this, the cold aunt was happy again, and she completely grasped the handle.

"Aren't you jealous?

It's just that she was also happy and sad, as a smell spread and the cry of the child on the bed sounded, before she saw Shui Gengsheng's embarrassment, she had to jump up from the chair.

"Qing'er, the shadow must have been pulled again, quick! let's change the urine meson......"

Then let's look at the mess of the water family. Aunt Shui and Shui Qing pounced on the child, Shui Gengsheng and Shui Lian played a fan together to disperse the taste, and this scene was called a lively.

Shui Lan threw away the chopsticks, put his cheeks on his cheeks with a sad face, and lost his appetite at all.
