'Even if fate is upside down, even if fate is twisted and bizarre, even if fate threatens you to be a human being, it is not interesting.

Don't shed tears and be sad, let alone give up, I want to be with you forever for the rest of my life! Even if fate is upside down, even if fate is twists and turns, even if fate scares you, it is not interesting to be a man. Don't shed tears and be sad, let alone give up, I would like to be with you forever for the rest of my life~~. ’

The sudden deafening music woke up Li Jiaming, who was chatting with Zhou Gong, and wiped the saliva hanging from his mouth embarrassedly, and saw that the driver with a pimple face was looking at himself and laughing narrowly, and he also smirked.

The mischievous driver grimaced at Li Jiaming and quipped in Hong Kong Mandarin: "Hey, what did you dream of eating?"

"Chestnut stewed chicken"

The driver's words were asked quickly enough, and Li Jiaming's answer was fast enough, which attracted a smile from Mr. Wang, who was about to get out of the car.

"That's it, Uncle Wu?"

Wu Jianguo was not in the car, so the driver became funny, stretched out his hand to turn off the car stereo, and skillfully parked the car at the door of the old educated youth hostel, joking: "I regret not recognizing my godfather yesterday?"

If the stern teacher Wang and the two children were not in the car, Li Jiaming would not mind joking and bickering with the driver. But now, he can only scratch his head and smirk, get out of the car with Mr. Wang, and don't forget to thank and say goodbye to people, like a good and polite boy.

"Amin, wait a minute!"

The driver jumped out of the car and stopped Li Jiaming, pulled him to the front of the car away from Mr. Wang and them, and whispered: "Ah Ming, you are a sensible child, brother begs you for something, can you come to see my uncle from time to time?"

Uncle: This young man is not Uncle Wu's driver?

"Ahh He is a big man, and he is just a child in the mountains, so he really doesn't want to climb high.

Seeing that this precocious and somewhat spiney child was distracted, the young man hurriedly explained in a low voice: "Ah Ming, let me tell you this, you look very much like my cousin who died more than ten years ago. ”

More than ten years ago, oh, it should be like his cousin when he was a child, Li Jiaming suddenly realized. No wonder when he was in the countryside that day, Wu Jianguo looked at himself with that kind of eyes, and wanted to let himself recognize him as his godfather. Co-author is that he looks like someone's dead son, and when he looks at himself, he thinks of his son, I'm afraid that buying wild honey and today's chance encounter are deliberately arranged.

Wu Jianguo's nephew was still too young, and when he saw that Li Jiaming didn't speak, he hurriedly said: "Ah Ming, why don't you do this? I heard that your second uncle is working on the construction site, as long as you promise to come to see my uncle more, I will help him find a good job, the salary is high and idle, what do you think? Also, your father and fourth uncle are working in Guangdong, I can also help them find a good job, as long as you come to see my uncle often." ”

They inquired clearly enough, Li Jiaming glanced at the young man speechlessly, and sighed secretly. Rich people are always accustomed to looking down on the poor, but they don't know that the poor also have the backbone of the poor, and not everyone is willing to accept alms, even if they are well-intentioned.

"No, big brother, my mother has also passed away, and I know the pain of losing a loved one. I welcome you and Uncle Wu to my house, but I hope you don't disturb our lives. Big brother, it is a kind of luck to be born in a wealthy family, but a poor family may not be unhappy. ”

The young man was stunned, he saw yesterday that Li Jiaming was not greedy and did not climb high branches, but he never expected that this mountain kid would actually say something that he couldn't understand. When Li Jiaming turned around and walked out of more than ten meters, the young man caught up and grabbed him, and said eagerly: "Ah Ming, then you agreed?"

"Hmm"

"Great, my name is Dong Hao, you can call me Brother Hao or Brother Hao in the future, the big guy (big brother) will give you a gift!"

Dong Hao affectionately hugged Li Jiaming's neck, half-hugged and came to the cab, and from the storage box next to the driver's seat, he took out a ninety percent new black 'Sony' single player with headphones plugged in on it, as well as a few boxes of unopened English tapes, a few 'Toshiba' rechargeable batteries, and chargers, and stuffed them into his hands.

"Ah Ming, I heard from Mr. Wang that your grades are very good, and you have started to study junior high school courses on your own. My brother didn't like to read since he was a child, he went to the army after graduating from junior high school, and he has been helping my uncle drive after he left the army, but my brother likes to read people. This machine is for you to learn English, I tell you, English must be learned hard, my uncle said that in the future, you will make foreigners' money, and you can't do it if you don't speak English well!"

Li Jiaming looked at the eldest brother who was forced to admit it speechlessly again, it was true that he gave himself a gift, and I am afraid that it was true that he didn't want to learn English under the pretext. However, this single player really needs it, since it has been decided to spend seven years to fight Tsinghua University and Peking University, you have to do everything you can to make up for the gap in talent.

"Then thank you, Brother Hao, I'm leaving. ”

Li Jiaming quickly stuffed the things into a schoolbag that only put a copy of "The Legend of the Deer and Ding" and two pencils, and turned around to chase Teacher Wang and them.

"Wait a minute", Dong Hao opened the trunk again, took out a bunch of delicately packaged pastries of various colors from it, stuffed Li Jiaming's schoolbag, and said a little embarrassed: "Bring it back to your sister and them to eat, the way they looked at honey yesterday reminded me of my sister when she was a child." Amin, be kind to your sister, don't wait for her to grow up, and keep complaining that you didn't spoil her when you were a child. ”

Dong Hao's words reminded Li Jiaming of the pitiful greed for honey yesterday with little sister and full sister, and couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, and thanked him in a low voice: "Thank you, Brother Hao." ”

"It's okay, I'll go first. Tomorrow we are going back to Guangdong, so I won't send you home. Amin, read well. ”

"Hey", Li Jiaming agreed with his schoolbag and ran into the somewhat dilapidated hostel.

Dong Hao drove away happily, and as soon as he returned to the government hotel, he went to his uncle's room, and said in a low voice: "Uncle, I think Ao (A) Ming is a little guy (younger brother), but he (he) is not willing to help me. ”

Wu Jianguo, who was sitting on the sofa holding a photo sadly, was stunned for a moment, then showed relief in his eyes, nodded and said: "Hao Zai, I will be more close to him (him) in the future, (this) boy (boy) is proud and talented, and he will have a great future in the future." Hey, alas. ”

"Hey", Dong Hao also glanced at the little cousin in the photo sadly, and he was seven or eight points like Li Jiaming, one was dressed in new clothes, innocent and cute, and the other was dressed in old clothes, precocious and sensible. Hey, Dong Hao, who has always been heartless and unprepared, also sighed secretly, helped his uncle make a cup of tea, and went to the restaurant to eat by himself.

At this time, Li Jiaming and the others also finished registering, and under the leadership of Mr. Wang, they went to the room to put things first, and then went out to eat. 'Educated Youth Hostel', as the name suggests, knows that this is still a **** guest house, how good can the conditions be?

The whitewashed walls have been yellowed and mottled, the wooden escalators and wooden floors squeak when walking, and if you stomp your feet a little harder upstairs, the dust will definitely fall from the ceiling downstairs. The people who live here are either here to buy timber, or people from the mountains who have been blocked by heavy snow, or rural teachers and students like Li Jiaming who have come to the county seat to participate in the mathematics competition for grades 3 to 5 of primary school.

"Cheng Lin?yo, you finally taught the first?"

This is a tall, handsome, and familiar male teacher, Li Jiaming thought for a while, suddenly remembered who he was, and subconsciously looked behind him.

Teacher Wang met this old man, and he was not strict at all, so he opened his mouth and said, "Hey, I didn't have a good daughter to shoot the teacher's ass, so I can only rely on my own skills." Hey, what about my child daughter-in-law? When my father-in-law arrives in the future, he won't come out to say hello or say goodbye, and he has eaten my New Year's pig for more than ten years!"

"Get out!"

"You're not happy?"

While joking with his old classmates, Mr. Wang took Li Jiaming and them into the innermost room on the second floor.

The room was not large, only fifteen or sixteen square meters, with four single beds on two walls, and an old table, which cost only two dollars a night. The old table, which was jet black and no longer visible in the color of paint, contained an old red plastic water bottle, four six-for-new white porcelain teacups, and an old black-and-white television. Teacher Wang washed the teacups with boiling water, poured four cups of hot water, and let the three students drink the water and put away their school bags, and then took them downstairs to eat.

The food in the guest house is average, but it is white rice, in addition to a plate of braised tofu and a plate of fried radish, there is also a fried meat with chili peppers that you can't see a few pieces of meat, and a large bowl of egg soup with a layer of oil flowers floating, which makes Li Jiaming and Wang Congju in new clothes very satisfied, of course, Zhang Shaolong, who is short and dressed very foreign, doesn't want to eat it.

After lunch, Mr. Liu just went downstairs to turn on the water, and Mr. Wang threw the three students to him, went upstairs to carry something, and hurried to the county education bureau. Director Hu of the Education Bureau is the junior high school homeroom teacher of him and Teacher Liu, and he finally came to the county seat and did not go to meet his teacher.

Teacher Liu is the leading teacher of the Chashan Forest Farm Primary and Secondary School next door to Chongxiang, and they don't have a bus there, so they came a day earlier to catch a hitchhiker, but they didn't suffer any crimes. Teacher Liu is in the same class as Teacher Wang, the same year, but he is much younger and more handsome than the old-looking Teacher Wang, and his daughter Liu Shasha who brought him to participate in the competition is even more beautiful.

Yes, that's right, this twelve-year-old girl can be called pretty.

Liu Shasha, who has bright eyes and bright teeth, is wearing a red down jacket, light blue jeans, and light yellow leather boots that are not even common in the county, and she is so foreign that she seems to be a little girl in a big city, comparing Wang Congju who came with Li Jiaming and them to an ugly girl.

Although Wang Congju is an excellent student who is favored by the teacher at school, she is just a girl in the mountains, and suddenly she saw such a beautiful little girl with such a foreign style, although she was also wearing new clothes, but she was somewhat inferior, and sat there watching TV in a restrained manner, God knows if she saw it or not.

Another little companion is called Zhang Shaolong, this short boy has very good family conditions, and he is also very well dressed, he is not very restrained, and his head is very slippery. Seeing that he had watched the rotten "Smart Brother Yixiu" on TV, and the other two children liked to watch it very much, Zhang Shaolong first asked Mr. Liu, who was sitting on the bed reading a novel, if he could change the channel. When Mr. Liu nodded, this slippery guy immediately took the opportunity to change to his favorite "Animal World", which attracted the anger of the other two guys.

As for Li Jiaming, he didn't even look at this beautiful little girl, and took out the shabby "The Legend of Deer and Ding" from his schoolbag and looked at it with relish.

If the fourth brother is a monster, this Liu Shasha is an out-and-out goblin, how Li Jiaming didn't know in junior high school, it was just a legend. But she relied on her father to be the deputy director and director of the Forestry Bureau for three years in high school, and she had good grades, a beautiful person, and a sweet mouth to please teachers. Although Li Jiaming had a lot of youthful and ridiculous crimson fantasies in his 'dreams', now he doesn't want to cause any trouble that shouldn't be provoked.

Wang Congju's restraint made Liu Shasha very proud, but the fashionably dressed but not polite Zhang Shaolong made her very uncomfortable, if it weren't for the fact that both of them liked to watch "Animal World", she wouldn't let him. Of course, what made her even more uncomfortable was the rustic Li Jiaming, who actually ignored himself?
