Although the review was nervous, Niu Tiangou still squeezed the time to go to Qian Xiaohua's house again.

My mother said that although the courtship will wait until the end of the year, I usually have to go to the girl's house to walk around, communicate more, and cultivate feelings. He also repeatedly told him to greet people more, say more polite words, and have a sweeter mouth, so as to please the girl and her family.

To be honest, Niu Tiangou and Qian Xiaohua, who has only been in elementary school for one year, don't have much in common, and there are only a few words of greeting when they meet, and there is nothing to communicate.

Niu Tiangou is most concerned about exams now, doing math problems, memorizing political answers, and training essays, and these Qian Xiaohua don't care about and don't understand.

All she said was what kind of fabric she was tearing and what style of clothes she was buying; When you get married, you have to buy a new-style combination cabinet, not an old-fashioned single cabinet; The sow next door gave birth to a litter of piglets, how much did it sell; When she and her girlfriends went to the neighboring village to watch a movie at night, the girlfriends pulled her to giggle and run around the scene, where is this to watch a movie, it is clearly to watch the young man from the neighboring village, and so on.

However, Qian Xiaohua understands the general way of hospitality.

took the initiative to help him serve the meal during the meal, and was busy helping him pour the water for washing his feet at night, and let her own clean bed for him to rest, while she went to rest with her best friends in the village.

can find a girl like Qian Xiaohua, Niu Tiangou is already content, what else can he do? An intellectual girl like Cao Yanfang, who has a common language and common pursuit with him, he can only think about it in his dreams.

Besides, how many couples in rural areas have a common language and real feelings? They all came together for a common goal in life, or to put it mildly, for the goal of passing on the lineage.

You must know that the countryside has not eliminated the bachelors, and the young man is already very lucky to find a girl, and any love and love is all bullshit. The plots of the lovers in the novels and movies who are deeply affectionate, love to death, and make people cry are pure fantasy and for poor rural boys!

Niu Tiangou never believed it, and faith was stupid. He believes that those authors and directors are pure nonsense and are not familiar with rural life at all.

Quarrels over firewood and rice, fights over food and clothing, and divorce at their parents' homes if they don't say a word, abound in the countryside.

Perhaps, there are those things in novels and movies, but they must not be in the vast and miserable countryside, maybe it happened in the rich people who have no worries about food and clothing in the city, or maybe it happened in the Jia Daguan Garden in ancient times like "Dream of Red Mansions". Talented and beautiful people, of course, there is money and leisure, and there is "love" and "love" without disease.

Most of the couples in the countryside are not lovers with a heart, but a match between the male and the female.

Yes, it's not a lover, it's a worthy ou!

If you get married after a few meetings, or divorce after a few quarrels, how can you care about spiritual communication? Where is love? **Yes, just from generation to generation.

He Niu Tiangou and Qian Xiaohua are also now, if they can get married in the future, they will be in the future.

……

In the intense teaching and review, more than 3 months have passed unconsciously, and the private teacher enrollment examination in Yunyang County was held as scheduled at the beginning of the summer vacation.

Niugang Village, where Niu Tiangou is located, belongs to Beihe Town, and the test center is located in Beihe Town Primary School.

There are only three subjects to be examined: Politics, Chinese and Mathematics, and the exam starts at 8 a.m.

Early in the morning, Niu Tiangou took the admission ticket, paper, and pen with Niu Dehua and six other private teachers from Niugang Village Primary School and walked more than 10 miles to the town primary school.

Hundreds of private teachers from all over the town rushed here, as if it was a grand festival, and everyone greeted each other excitedly.

There was still half an hour before the exam time, Niu Tiangou squeezed in front of the "exam schedule" posted on the campus bulletin board, and saw that he and Niu Dehua were in the first examination room, and the other 6 teachers were in other examination rooms.

He secretly searched again and found that Cao Yanfang was in the last fourth examination room.

The exam starts at 8 o'clock sharp.

After the first Chinese exam, Niu Tiangou felt very comfortable, because not only did he do well in the basic questions, but he also wrote the composition very satisfactorily.

The title of the essay is "I love the party's educational cause".

From the Opium War to the First Sino-Japanese Naval War to the Eight-Nation Alliance, Niu Tiangou bitterly stated that the poverty and humiliation in China's history came from the backwardness of national defense, and the backwardness of national defense came from the backwardness of science and technology, and the backwardness of science and technology came from the backwardness of education.

At the end of the article, he wrote: I would like to turn into a drop of clear spring to moisten the flowers of the motherland, make them bloom more colorful and thicker, and decorate the spring of the motherland's science more brilliantly!

The full text is well-argued, rigorous, sprinkled, and written in one go, and the feelings are sincere and neatly written.

After the second mathematics test in the afternoon, he felt a little lucky, because the last geometry problem with a heavier score (15 points) was very similar to the one asked by Niu Dehua, and he solved it in less than three minutes.

It's really a hell of an evil door!

When Niu Tiangou handed in the exam papers, he saw that some of the people who had come out early were depressed, and some sighed that the math problem was too difficult, but seeing Niu Dehua was very excited, it is estimated that he also solved the problem, but ...... I don't know if this kid told Cao Yanfang about the proof method some time ago?

After taking the third subject of politics, Niu Tiangou felt a little discouraged, because he did not expand on the last two questions, and it is estimated that he lost a lot of points.

……

On the way back after the exam, everyone rarely spoke, and there was no laughter and excitement when they came, maybe everyone was worried about the exam, worried about their future and fate.

Yes, there are thousands of private teachers in the county, how many can be admitted this time? Many private teachers have been working hard for most of their lives, hoping to "turn positive".

Niu Tiangou is also worried.

……

When I got home, my mother said, "Tiangou, I heard that the school will 'cut' (cut) private teachers in the school next semester?" ”

"Hmm." Niu Tiangou seems to have heard Niu Dehua discuss with the teachers. The earliest private teachers were issued with "Private Teacher Appointment Certificate", Niu Tiangou and Niu Dehua were later private teachers, and they did not have an "appointment certificate", and they could be "down" at any time.

"If you offend Aunt Zhang, it is equivalent to offending the village secretary, and I am afraid that you will be the first one to 'go down'." Mom looked worried.

"Let's go down." Niu Tiangou seems to have been mentally prepared for a long time.

"If you don't teach, what else can you do in the countryside with your bones?"

Seeing Niu Tiangou's heartless appearance, my mother sighed and said, "So, I discussed with your father, if you can't teach, I will let you go to your aunt and cousin to learn the barbering trade." Your aunt and cousin have agreed to this. ”

Niu Tiangou knew that his cousin had opened a barber shop in Nanshan Town, which was adjacent to Beihe Town, and the business was very good, and he had recruited two girls as apprentices, and Niu Tiangou had been to his shop once.

"Do you want to go?"

"Yes!" This time, Niu Tiangou answered very simply. He thought of the two apprentice girls under his cousin, who were tender and delicate, and it must have felt cool to learn art with beautiful girls.
