Wang Ming went straight out of the school, since the college dream was disappointed, then the next thing is to face it calmly, along the way, I saw a lot of familiar and slightly unfamiliar faces, Wang Ming smiled and waved his hand to say hello, after all, although he looks only sixteen or seventeen years old now, he has the experience of being a human being in two lives.

In his last life, as a well-known chef, he experienced a lot of ups and downs along the way, which also made him mature too much in the world.

In the face of Wang Ming's smiling face, some students who knew his personality well on weekdays had their eyes become strange, in their impressions, Wang Ming was taciturn and introverted, and he would usually remain silent face to face, but now he seems to have changed as a person.

But despite this, sixteen or seventeen-year-old teenagers don't take this kind of thing to heart, but think that the reason why an introverted good student like Wang Ming is like two people is probably because he thinks that he played very well in this exam.

Walking all the way west along the avenue in front of the school gate, looking at the scenes in the depths of memory on both sides, the pair of dark eyes on Wang Ming's slightly immature face flashed with memories from time to time, and the old ones were still the same, slowly merging with the vague scenes in his memory, the familiar and unfamiliar scenes made his mind a little surging, and also made Wang Ming's pace speed up a lot.

Wang Ming's home is in a village and town a few miles away from the school, where willow trees are everywhere, and there is a small river meandering in front of the village, so it is named Daliutan Village, Wang Ming's mother is sick, and her health is very poor, and his father has worked hard to pull him and his sister Wang Li to grow up, his father Wang Zheng is an honest person, he was a soldier in his early years, and his personality is quite stubborn, and because of this, Wang Ming's family is not rich, and even a little poor.

In the previous life, Wang Ming went out to work, because he didn't have the slightest craftsmanship to speak of, and he was alone, he took a lot of detours, and when he had some achievements, his mother's illness had dragged on to the irretrievable Cheng Dù, and finally, he left.

Wang Ming's thoughts echoed, with some complications, the moment he stepped into the village, his heart twitched fiercely, and then he took a deep breath, looked at the tiled house at the head of the village, which was already a little dilapidated, and walked in.

The mottled walls, the simple furnishings, in the courtyard, the mother sat on a small stool, her face a little pale in the sun, her eyes slightly closed, and beside the mother, the father's thin body was half-squatting, holding a broken tile in his hand, gently wiping the dirt from the hoe.

Wang Ming's eyes were a little moist, looking at the scene in front of him, his mind churned again, as if he heard the sound of the door, his father Wang Zheng raised his head, revealing a wrinkled face, that face was full of fortitude, but there was a tiredness that could not be concealed, when he looked at Wang Ming at this moment, Wang Zheng grinned.

"I'm back, how do you feel about the college entrance examination this time?"

The father stood up, rubbed his hands, gently patted the soil in his hands, and asked with a smile, while the mother Yang Xia on the side also opened her eyes, looking at Wang Ming with a trace of guilt on her pale face, and the moment she was quickly covered up, she also smiled.

"What are you doing? Come into the house, and I'll be waiting for you to eat. ”

Mother Yang Xia's palm gently patted Wang Zheng's back and stood up with a smile, but Wang Ming, who was a man of two lives, found carefully this time that the moment his mother stood up, her legs seemed to tremble, although it was very subtle, but she was still clearly caught by Wang Ming.

Wang Ming's heart is complicated, his parents hope that he can be admitted to university, in the eyes of the elderly, only by going to college and mastering more knowledge can he get ahead in the future, so they have high expectations for Wang Ming here.

Looking at his parents' smiling faces, Wang Ming's guilt deepened, and then he walked in, with a complicated heart, with unbearable, but helplessly showing a wry smile.

"Mom and Dad, there's something I want to discuss with you."

Wang Ming walked over, his eyes swept over the old facilities and mottled walls in the courtyard, and a sadness welled up in his heart, in order to provide for his own study, the family has paid too much over the years, and now the second college entrance examination still hasn't changed anything, perhaps, this is also providence.

As soon as he thought of this, Wang Ming retracted his gaze, his eyes were firm, and his immature face was unprecedentedly dignified, and he sighed in his heart.

"Dad, Mom, I'm sorry, I didn't play very well in the college entrance examination this time, and no matter what my grades were, I wasn't ready to study anymore."

Wang Ming pondered for a moment, and finally spoke, and when the words fell, his eyes looked at his father and mother, and the guilt on his face became more and more intense.

Wang Zheng looked at Wang Ming in front of him blankly, in his impression, although this child is introverted, he is very well-behaved and obedient, and he has been working hard for the university entrance examination, but now when these words came out of Wang Ming's mouth, he had a little strangeness to this well-behaved son for the first time.

Mother Yang Xia also frowned slightly, but when she looked at her son's face with a touch of firmness, she opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything, for Wang Ming's character, as a mother, Yang Xia knows very well, Wang Ming's personality follows his father, although he is well-behaved, but he is very stubborn, once he decides on one thing, he must have made a lot of determination.

"Why? Is it because of the poor conditions at home? If that's the case, Wang Ming, just keep studying hard, just Dad will solve these things. ”

Wang Zheng's gaze was withdrawn from Wang Ming, he stretched out his rough big hand, gently rubbed his face, and when he put it down again, the pair of eyes on his resolute face were slightly red, and then, he said in a firm tone.

Wang Zheng's voice was a little hoarse, and when it came out, Wang Ming's guilt was heavier, but the moment he entered the house, he had completely adapted to the little dazed brought by rebirth, and he was even more determined to improve the conditions at home as soon as possible.

"The conditions at home are really not good, but there are also reasons for me, this time in the college entrance examination, I didn't play very well..."

Wang Ming looked at his father, his eyes were firm, his face was a little more guilty, and he continued to speak after looking at his father who wanted to speak and stopped.

"Dad, I'm seventeen years old, I'm conscious, this time the exam is a little different from the college score I reported, and the economic conditions of our family really don't allow me to continue to waste time like this, I'm an adult, and it's time to share some of it for the family, so I'm going to go out to work."

Wang Ming finished speaking in one breath and quieted down, his eyes were firm, and his immature little face was also very strict at this time, looking at his parents in front of him, waiting for the coming storm, he knew his father very well, and he had long known his father's stubbornness.

Mother Yang Xia was silent, her pale face was almost bloodless, mixed with guilt and a trace of disappointment that could not be concealed, for Wang Ming, she has great confidence, and this confidence comes from primary school to junior high school, Wang Ming's grades have always been among the best.

Seeing Wang Ming like this, Wang Zheng's face slowly turned red, his breathing became short, looking at Wang Ming, who had been obedient and well-behaved since he was a child, the strangeness was even stronger, at this time he had tears in his eyes, from a young age to Jackie Chan, in the end, it was such a result, the short-term anger seemed to make him lose his mind, the raised palm, waving in the air, Wang Ming did not dodge at all, and silently closed his eyes.

The expected slap did not fall, and for a long time, Wang Zheng's voice sounded in Wang Ming's ears with exhaustion.

"You have grown up and have your own ideas, but you still have to think about going to school more clearly, it is about your whole life, and Dad doesn't want you to have regrets."

Wang Zheng's voice was a little low, and when it resounded, Wang Ming opened his eyes, his eyes were full of guilt, looking at the back of Wang Zheng who was a little staggering, and the thoughts in his heart were more firm.

"Okay, okay, let's eat first."

Looking at the father and son, Yang Xia reluctantly squeezed out a smile and urged the two, but on that pale face, guilt and disappointment were entangled, which made the smile quite far-fetched.

Wang Zheng sighed, went straight into the room, and after a while, when he came out again, he had an extra bottle of liquor in his hand, frowned, and sat down at the wooden simple dining table.

"This kid, eat first."

Seeing that Wang Ming was still standing there stunned, Yang Xia urged again, and as she spoke, she bent down and reached out to remove the upside-down bowls on the dining table one by one.

Wang Ming looked at the dishes under the bowl that were turned up one by one, his nose was sore, and he almost shed tears, the conditions at home were difficult, and the three meals a day were as simple as possible, but now on this simple small table, braised fish, plum cabbage and pork, fried green bamboo shoots, shredded meat and beans, eight treasures and spicy seeds, so many dishes, they used to be only eaten during the New Year.

Wang Ming took a deep breath and sat down silently, he knew that today's college entrance examination is over, this meal is saved by his parents to treat himself, thinking of this, Wang Ming's heart is even more guilty.

"Come, have a drink with me."

Seeing that Yang Xia also sat down, the family of three was silent for a moment, Wang Zheng opened the wine bottle, poured a glass to himself, and said to Wang Ming on the side without raising his head, and seeing this, Wang Ming nodded, took the wine bottle from Wang Zheng's hand, and poured some for himself.

Wang Zheng raised his cup and looked at Wang Ming, his face was intertwined with complex and wrinkles, which made the resolute face also have guilt.

"Goo."

Wang Zheng took a sip of white wine, the wine glass was gently put down, Wang Ming here, raised the glass, and also took a sip gently, the hot white wine flowed down his throat, warm, and permeated his chest.

"As the saying goes, what kind of father you have, what kind of son you have, you really follow me, stubborn."

Wang Zheng opened his mouth to speak, picked up the wine glass again and poured it in, Yang Xia on the side was silent, quietly picking up the rice in the bowl.

Yang Xia ate some silently, then stood up, put away some of the meals left alone, and looked at the old and young in front of her, with a hint of softness on her pale face.

"I'll help Xiaoli put it away, don't fight between the two of you, if you have something, talk about it."

After Yang Xia finished speaking, she entered the kitchen with the plate in her hand, Wang Ming watched her mother leave, then sighed in her heart, turned around and took chopsticks, took a bite of food and put it in the bowl in front of Wang Zheng.

"Dad... Eat a bite to eat and don't drink too much. ”

The sun is shining, the old locust with dense branches and leaves in the courtyard blocks the sun, and the father and son in the shade are talking without a word around the wooden table...

Yang Xia looked at the father and son through the kitchen window, the guilt on her face was even more, and when her lips moved lightly, two lines of tears fell down her cheeks quietly.

"It's all me, dragging down this family..."
