Chapter 2 Going to the Examination

"Oh?" It's rare to see Wang Jiaxing frowning, but now seeing him sighing, Chen Yadong was curious and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"

Wang Jiaxing glared at him, and really wanted to rush up and kick him twice: "It's been rumored in the school for a long time, maybe only you don't know."

"Hehe," Chen Yadong smiled awkwardly and said cheekily, "Isn't there still you?"

Wang Jiaxing was speechless, no matter how big or small the events that happened in the school, as long as he didn't say it, Chen Yadong would never know. It's hard to imagine how Chen Yadong will connect with the world when the two are separated when they grow up, which is a pretty serious problem!

"Hey," Chen Yadong waited for a long time and didn't hear Wang Jiaxing's answer, but when he turned his head, Wang Jiaxing didn't know what he was doing, and seemed to be very involved, and he was about to become a nerd if he didn't wake him up.

Wang Jiaxing came back to his senses, looked at Chen Yadong on the side, stared at him with expectation, and asked eagerly, "What is the matter?"

Wang Jiaxing said: "Hmm... Something about fighting. ”

"Cut." Chen Yadong was disappointed, and thought it was a big secret, it turned out to be a fight, this has long been common in school, Chen Yadong is not much interested in this, as long as the matter does not fall on his head, why bother to that leisure, it is better to read novels.

Wang Jiaxing saw his disapproval and said: "We will also be implicated in this matter. ”

"Huh?" Chen Yadong looked at Wang Jiaxing a little blankly and asked, "What do you mean?" Who are the people who are making trouble, and how can the conflict involve us? We haven't provoked anyone."

Wang Jiaxing shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "I don't know too well that I heard Li Qiang (the little gangster in the forest) say that during the high school entrance examination, the people in the 13th middle school will beat us in the forest."

Test! Two simple words have killed the ideals of many students. Although today's admission rate is as high as more than 80 percent, the pressure of being admitted to a good high school is not small, especially for rural children like Chen Yadong, who have no background and connections, and do not have enough money to go through the back door, everything has to rely on their own strength. Moreover, Lin Zhong is only an average middle school, and the teachers are not strong. To stand out among the nearly 8,000 candidates in the city, the pressure can be imagined!

Chen Yadong sighed, and his heartbeat did not increase unconsciously. The high school entrance examination was once so far away, and it was only a month away in a blink of an eye. I don't know if the high school entrance examination is difficult, but what will happen if I can't pass the exam.?

The fight was put behind the two of them, and the topic was pulled to the future, and before they knew it, it also arrived at the head of the village.

Before Chen Yadong's village faced parting on the main highway, Wang Jiaxing reminded: "When you go back, remember to memorize English grammar after finishing the chemistry and physics papers."

"I know, I know. Every day, my mother-in-law chatters. Hurry home and eat." Listening to Wang Jiaxing's chatter, Chen Yadong waved his hand and pushed him home.

Wang Jiaxing turned back as he walked and said, "I warned you, but when did you do it......

If you don't go, I'll go, so Chen Yadong shouldn't listen to his brainwashing. The two are in the same village, but they are not neighbors, and they are hundreds of meters apart, saying goodbye to Wang Jiaxing and Chen Yadong, and going straight home. From a long distance, I saw a tall building shining white. Next to it is a small wooden house, painted with red paint several times, and the tiles are black and shiny. It is still a product of the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it has hardly been rebuilt decently.

Chen Yadong walked to the door, pushed open the heavy wooden door, made a &'creak' sound, and just stepped into the door, a strong smell of familiar medicine came to his nose.

"Ahem"

Then there was another cough, only a faint voice was heard, "I'm back."

It was the voice of Chen Yadong's father, he went out to work when he was young, he was seriously injured in a porterage, the boss fired his squid and did not compensate him, but he sued the government, but he was lost in the sea and was never heard from. In the end, after returning to his hometown with a serious illness, he couldn't lie down, his body became weaker and weaker, and he lay on the mattress all year round.

"Hmm." Chen Yadong carried the book to a four-corner table in the corner of the room and asked, "Where is Mom?"

"Your mother coughed cough and went to the ditch to weed, you ate the food and brought the fertilizer over."

"Oh." Chen Yadong agreed, walked to the cupboard, put the dishes on the table, quickly filled his stomach, and then took the fertilizer to the field to help his mother work. Wait until it gets dark to see him coming back with weeds on his back.

Chen Yadong's life from childhood to adulthood has almost been like this, going to school in the morning to study, and coming home in the afternoon to help his mother do some farm work, which can be regarded as one of the reasons why he runs to school. Another reason is naturally family conditions, my father is sick in bed all the year round, and the financial burden falls on the shoulders of his brother, who is six years older than him.

A month slipped away unconsciously, and Chen Yadong also ended his study career in the forest, and on the last day of school, his classmates took pictures of each other. But Wang Jiaxing can be seen in almost any corner of the school. As soon as I finished taking pictures with these people, I immediately poured into that group of people again.

Chen Yadong was so happy to be idle, he hid on the hillside behind the school alone, staring at the school for three years, there was some reluctance, and more should be confused!

"Chen Yadong, they are all taking pictures, why don't you go?"

Chen Yadong came back to his senses and turned his head to see that there were two female classmates, one of whom was his classmate Lin Ling, who was very delicate, with white skin and watery skin, as if it could be blown and broken! Straight hair is raised in front of the back and eyebrows. She wears a white and yellow skirt and a white shirt on her upper body. And the girl next to her is slightly inferior, but it is also a beauty. It's from other classes and Lin Ling is very good. Chen Yadong retracted his gaze and looked at the bishop's building and said slowly: "It's not life and death, why bother with reluctance!"

Lin Ling pouted, and the two sat down next to Chen Yadong, Lin Ling stared at Chen Yadong and said, "It's rare to be a classmate, and there is no one worthy of your memory?"

Someone worth remembering......

Chen Yadong didn't answer, Lin Ling didn't say anything more, and the three of them sat silently on the grass like this. There are some things that no one has said.

After three days of school vacation, go home for a rest, and after three days, you will face the final challenge - the high school entrance examination.

On the third day, Chen Yadong got up from the bed, and his mother was ready to hoe and go to work in the mountains! Chen Yadong walked out of the house, the sun had just shown its face, and the little birds were chirping on the tree, and from this tree in a blink of an eye, he came to another branch. How blessed they must be to soar freely across the sky! Chen Yadong yearns for that kind of freedom, but he also understands that kind of life can only be imagined.

In the courtyard, Chen Yadong began one of the things he must do every morning - cooking. Whenever this happens, he always thinks of his brother, who hasn't been home in years. I've been eating my brother's cooked rice for as long as I can remember. But a few years ago, his brother was forced to leave home to work outside the home, and the task of earning money and cooking fell on Chen Yadong's shoulders, and because of this, he was almost never late after entering junior high school.

When the sun shone on most of the courtyard, Chen Yadong looked at his small alarm clock, which was almost half past eight, and at this time he only heard the sound of "ping-pong" in the outhouse, which was the sound of his mother coming home and putting a hoe.

After breakfast, Chen Yadong took the eighty yuan given by his mother and went to No. 13 Middle School with Wang Jiaxing.

Chen Yadong's house to 13 has to pass through the Pingying street where the forest is located, there is a shuttle, unfortunately, today is the day of the market, the street is densely packed with people, the original road is not wide, both sides of the road are full of all kinds of stalls, shouting and shouting, countless people onlookers, touching and looking, while talking about the road blocked, what is more odious is that occasionally there will be cars passing through, the horn is particularly harsh. After walking through the short street, it took the two of them half an hour to reach the other end of the street, and when they looked down and saw that their trousers were full of dirt, the two looked at each other and smiled helplessly. Stop by the side of the road and wait for the shuttle. There is no station here, and the street is the terminus.

"Squad leader, Yadong, you are still here."

Suddenly, a soft call came from the right side, and Chen Yadong and Wang Jiaxing turned their heads to see that it was Lin Ling and her best friend in the same class, and the two of them walked over. Wang Jiaxing smiled and said, "Did you two just arrive?"

"Well, we've been here for almost two hours, and there are too many people to squeeze in."

"No, it's been several vans, I want to wait for someone...... the girl next to Lin Ling said with a smile.

Lin Ling's face turned red, raised her fist and scolded: "What nonsense is the dead girl talking about?"

"Sister Lin, don't, sister knows it's wrong, don't kill people."" You look for a fight" The two girls were laughing on the side, Chen Yadong and Wang Jiaxing couldn't plug in, Wang Jiaxing looked at the time, if there was no traffic jam, and the shuttle bus was about to arrive.

"Doodoo"

At this moment, the sound of the shuttle bus came from not far away, and the two of them were in good spirits, lifting things on the ground, Wang Jiaxing reminded Lin Ling and the two: "The car is coming."

Lin Ling and her friend stopped fighting, and soon the shuttle bus came from the field of view of the four of them, and they were in an excellent position, and the shuttle stopped in front of the four of them.

Chen Yadong wanted to wait for the passengers in the car to get off the bus before getting on the bus, but he was wrong, as soon as the door was opened, the people in the car didn't have time to squeeze to the door, those who were originally squatting on the side of the road and waiting for the car had already surrounded the car door tightly, only to see countless palms waving in the air, and the dust from the feet was more than three feet high, shouting and scolding.

The driver stuck his head out of the window and hissed and shouted: "Don't squeeze first down, then up, first down, then down"

The people squeezing the car are like jackals, tigers and leopards, and the drivers are shouting as hard as they can, but they are insignificant.

Chen Yadong and Wang Jiaxing retreated to the side of the road to cover their mouths and noses, and Lin Ling said, "It's always been like this."

Wang Jiaxing smiled helplessly, Chen Yadong stared at the crowd viciously, and secretly swore in his heart: One day, if I have the power, I must beat this group of people violently.

The car came and went, and the whole process took less than five minutes. Chen Yadong and the four of them are still on the street, and the bus runs every hour, which means they have to wait for another hour.

Fortunately, when the three of them were disappointed in the shuttle, a van came through the street, and Chen Yadong and the three of them reacted, Wang Jiaxing had stepped out, blocked in front of the van, waved his hand to stop the car, and quickly ran to the window.

The driver lowered the window and poked his head out, looking like he was in his twenties, and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"Big brother going to 13 middle school?"

The young driver looked at Wang Jiaxing and saw that he was not old and was going to 13 middle school again, obviously a student in the forest. He shook his head and said, "No."

"Oh." Wang Jiaxing flashed to the side, thinking that he could take a ride, but the other party didn't go.13 Center was disappointed and said, "Excuse me."

Looking at Wang Jiaxing's lost expression, the young driver smiled and said, "But I'll pass by there......"
