The summer vacation really began, and my brother from college in Ben was also on vacation, and the classmates who had sent away one by one in the field also came back.

The family lives in a small home of more than 20 square meters, although it is crowded but also warm, listening to my brother tell how college students study and live, how big the university campus is, five or six canteens, more than 200 people in the lecture hall, several football fields and basketball courts, more than 4,000 students, more than a dozen departments, dozens of majors, everyone comes from different places, there are cadre families, worker families, peasant families, small villages deep in the mountains, inconspicuous towns, small counties that have not heard of them, other cities, everyone speaks their respective dialects to learn and exchange happilyWhen my brother was happy, he also learned to say "Slave slave!" (the meaning of the little girl) This is the favorite of the third brother in the dormitory, and it is also the favorite topic of the dormitory brothers.

The colorful college life is really good, the college students in the 80s are the real pride of the sky, the job can be picked, the unit can be chosen, as soon as they graduate, they are the national cadres that everyone envies, the future is immeasurable, the family is good, and the beautiful girls are actively pursuing. It can be said that as long as you are a college student, it means happiness and success in this era.

This is also the original motivation for Zhao Hong to insist on learning, when there are few college students around, it is a very important sign that there is a college student in the family.

The power of example is endless!

When Zhao Hong started to go out to work as a hawker the next day, he began to bring books with him. In the interval between selling corn and cooking, I also began to memorize politics, the six books of the high school entrance examination, read through, understand, summarize, step by step, memorize, unwrap the back. Repeated back. It is easy to understand with the thinking ability of an adult, and with the body of a teenager, as long as you persevere, you will definitely understand it. Money slowly accumulates, books are slowly memorized, and after more than 20 days, six books have been memorized, after all, the book is not too thick, and it is not a word-for-word back. Needless to say, the money is counted several times a day before going to bed. The happiness of counting money is still full.

The family slowly discovered Zhao Hong's small business.

Zhao's father and Zhao's mother are a little opposed, but they are not very resolute, the reason is that Zhao Hong's academic performance is definitely not good, and they have no definite goal for Zhao Hong's path after graduating from junior high school.

Zhao Hong's brother was a little opposed, and felt a little embarrassed, although he was not a hooligan, but he was also the same as a blind stream. My sister just feels very hard, and it is not safe, stolen, robbed, cheated, and there are many risks, so it is safe to find a state-owned unit to work.

Zhao Hong didn't tell his family all the income during this period, and told some of them selectively, but he still surprised his family, and he earned more than 100 yuan in more than half a month and about 20 days, which is about the same as the sum of his parents' salaries.

In fact, Zhao Hong only reported less than one-fifth, Zhao Hong wanted to leave some principal, so that he would not have to start all over again in the future, and it was estimated that he could give his parents 300 yuan at the end of the summer vacation, and he could leave more.

The family talked about Zhao Hong's study problems, and his parents told him to do his best, and there was a chance to top the class, and there would be a batch at the end of the year.

My brothers and sisters all think that Zhao Hong still has a chance, and he should study with all his might, and then think about how to go on the road in the future after the high school entrance examination.

Zhao Hong also expressed his attitude, the hawker does it well, and he doesn't want to pull it down when he learns. Every day, there is not only a small amount of money, but also knowledge, and by the way, I performed a political recitation, although it was a little stumbling, but after all, there was still a year.

Because it is difficult to take the provincial experimental high school entrance examination, the score is far more than that of the general high school and technical secondary school, which is the so-called discrimination of the children of urban factories and mines, and they cannot apply for secondary school if they apply for high school. Therefore, Zhao Hong also promised his family that he would work hard in high school or technical secondary school to guarantee a technical school and guarantee a formal job in the future.

The parents also informed the family's financial situation, almost no savings, moonlight. If my sister goes to college this year, in addition to the 30 living expenses left for the three people in the family, the living expenses of the elder sister cannot exceed 15 yuan, and the hometown also needs some necessary medicine and living expenses every month. Life must be very tight this year, and I don't have any pocket money.

In the next few days, my brother found a job as a manual laborer in a bookstore, five a day and five a week.

My sister was arranged by her parents to watch Zhao Hong go to work as a hawker. The addition of my sister has expanded the scale of Zhao Hong's hawker a little, and the goods he carries have increased a little, and he can go home and get it again when he sells it. The daily income has increased by a small 20 yuan.

Seeing that her sister wanted to buy it but couldn't say it, Zhao Hong and her sister began to discuss how to divide the money. started giving my sister 2 yuan a day, and a few days later, my sister found out Zhao Hong's true income, and after intimidation and threats, she got a high salary of 5 yuan a day, and first withdrew 50 yuan to buy a white dress that she had been looking at for a long time.

Happiness has been displayed for several days! Learning is going up every day, and the money from the peddler comes in.

Zhao Hong remembered Dabao's advertisement, hehe, happy hawkers see you every day!

On the new Monday, Zhao Hong rarely got up early in the morning to wash up, tidy himself, keep himself in good shape, and walked briskly to school after breakfast, and the third year of junior high school began.

The first class starts at 8 a.m. and morning reading starts at 7:30 a.m.

Before the teacher arrived in the classroom, he went to the playground and slowly ran two laps, and then pulled a few pull-ups.

Just in the classroom.

Zhao Hong saw some classmates talking quietly, and when he saw Zhao Hong coming in, he didn't stop.

"I heard that someone in the class has asked to drop out. It was useless to continue studying, it was impossible to go on to higher education, and I wanted to go out early to earn money, so the teacher agreed, and I came to get my graduation certificate when I graduated. A girl said.

Zhao Hong glanced at a lot of classmates in the classroom, and there were a lot of discussions, and this began, remembering that more than half of the students left the school in the first half of the high school entrance examination in their previous life, looking for a way out.

Zhao Hong quietly walked back to his seat and began to read, saying a thousand things and ten thousand, and reading to himself is the best way out at present.

In the afternoon, Zhang Meihua, who dropped out of school, came to say goodbye to her classmates. This is a bold and cheerful girl, a classmate and friend of the opposite sex who also had some contacts after graduating from junior high school in her previous life, and she has heard her talk about the ups and downs of her part-time job and business, and Zhao Hong is quite compatible in all aspects.

Zhao Hong wanted to help this old classmate and friend, so he ran over to join the ranks of the unnutritious sigh chat, and after a while, there were fewer people.

Zhao Hong asked, "Do you have any ideas and preparations?"

Zhang Meihua: "I said that I would go to the counter and learn to sell clothes! 50 yuan a month, and the rest will be given depending on the situation." It's impossible to officially work without a city hukou, and a few years ago my brother has taken over my dad's job, and my mom is a farmer, and so am I. ”

Zhao Hong said, "Everything is the same, making money is fundamental." What's the use of the money at work? I don't dare to eat well if I want to, and I can't bear to wear good clothes. Every day, I am busy in the unit, and I go around in circles in one place. Of course, there are no frustrations in society, but the scenery has nothing to do with them. How pale a person's life would be if he did not have the youthful years of striving for his ideals! Only when he is old can he tell his children that his youth has not been wasted. A friend once sent me a message, fate I swore to fight to the death, success or failure does not have to be in me. What's more, failure is the mother of success, we have known since childhood, we are still so young, we can win and lose!"

Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, he whispered a few words, "I also went to work for a period of time this summer, which is good." It's better than going to work, it's just very tiring. But aren't we young? If we are tired, we can learn more about society. There are many opportunities now, and there will be development in the future. Only a 100,000-yuan household can start, and a million-dollar household can be considered rich! When you get rich in the future, don't forget to help me, a poor old classmate. ”

Zhang Meihua was happy, lining up Zhao Hong's shoulder, "Okay, sister, please eat fried chicken legs, let's eat one and throw one." Money is never hidden. Lao Zhao should study hard! In the future, only reading is the right way out. Sister can't do it, it's up to you, a young man. ”

Zhao Hong looked at his old friend and was in a better mood, and he was also a little happier.

Zhao Hong finally talked to Zhang Meihua for a while, and told her that he still had some private money, and if she needed to borrow it, she still had 500. She was moved to leave the school together and went home separately.

Zhao Hong's body has not been particularly good, he is not short or tall, 175cm, but he has always been thin, and his weight has always been below 120.

Many times, when you want to work hard, your body can last for up to 3 months, and various diseases will occur, and you will be helpless and laughed at by others.

Even his parents said that Zhao Hong's efforts were the forces of the reactionaries, and that he was arrogant for three months at most.

In fact, most of the time, Zhao Hong is physically healthy and will decline rapidly when he is working hard, his physical quality and foundation are too poor, although he knows that he is not born a strong type, not suitable for strenuous exercise, then exercise a small amount every day, adhere to it for a long time, live a regular life, and ensure that the body persists until the end.

Zhao Hong's efforts in the third year of junior high school in his last life were a bit excessive, and his physical health declined rapidly, and he couldn't slow down for a few years. I never dared to work very hard in high school, so I must learn a lesson this time!

There is still a long way to go in life, and it is very important to work hard to pass the test at a critical time, but the unremitting efforts of each step at ordinary times are the fundamental foundation for success.

Success is important, but beauty or health can only be enjoyed.

People who don't have many friends tend to cherish their friends more, and every opportunity is hard-won. Zhao Hong's uncle understands that true friends, friends who have no stakes, will only get along with each other slowly when they are young.

When I entered the society, most of the people I came into contact with were people with interests, who could cooperate, could alliance, and did not betray just because there were not enough interests. Sometimes only a small profit is enough to be betrayed by some companions, and each other is very guarded.
