Chapter 010: The Lonely Shadow at the Head of the Bed
In the garden, Cai Yan went home separately with Tang Yin with a faint sense of amazement.
But Tang Yin didn't have any melancholy, because he was full of confidence in the future.
That night, after going through the relevant discharge procedures, after saying goodbye to Bai Xue, Tang Yin sat on the back seat of his father's old permanent bicycle and went home.
Walking on the familiar streets, intertwined time and space, Tang Yin felt particularly illusory, although the passers-by were in a hurry, he always had the illusion that it was not real but dreamy.
Originally, he was scared, it was a dream, but when he woke up, it was empty. Fortunately, this is the third day I woke up, and when I woke up in the morning, I realized that everything was not a dream. He wanted to look up to the sky and shout: "I, Tang Yin, am back again!" ”
Today, he deliberately asked his father to come by bicycle instead of choosing to take the bus, just to see the original scenery of Cangshan City in the 90s, but also to allow himself to fully integrate into this era.
In 98 years, the urban area of Cangshan is less than 30 square kilometers large, the industry is underdeveloped, the urban construction has almost no achievements, commercial housing in addition to the unit self-built housing, only the bright moon night community is the latest development, the first grade of new commercial housing in Cangshan City.
And the place where Tang Yin's house is located is the staff room of the daily chemical plant, which is still the house that the family bought with all their might and spent more than 20,000 yuan the year before last. The tube building of more than 60 square meters, when it was placed ten years later, was a complete dwelling.
At that time, in order to buy this house, my parents hesitated.
On the one hand, Tang Yin's grades are too poor, and if you want to go to a good school, you have to borrow at a high price? On the other hand, if you don't buy it with the self-built house of the unit, seeing Tang Yin grow up day by day, what money will you use to raise a "new house" for him to marry in the future?
In the end, the super conservative parents unanimously decided to buy a house first, and then find a way to raise money when Tang Yin was admitted to school.
They are so conservative, it is not completely unreasonable, mainly because Tang Yin's grades have always been the same as his height, and he belongs to the miserable type that cannot be seen on the stage.
If you take Tang Yin's results, if you want to be admitted to the first middle school in the market, unless the sun comes out from the west. Since there is no hope of going to a good high school, let alone a good college or a good job. Without these foundations, buying a house in advance has become the right choice.
Indeed, in my memory, Tang Yin's high school entrance examination was more than 180 points away from the admission score line of the city's No. 1 Middle School, and in the end, he spent some money and barely enrolled in Xiangyang Middle School, a third-rate high school.
What is the concept of more than 180 points?
If you don't have any idea of more than 180 points, you just need to look at people's disdainful eyes to know about it. Of course, those who despise do not include their closest parents.
Tang Yin greeted the familiar "strangers" along the street, but these old neighbors with parents and units were all more than ten years younger, which made him feel a little weird and awkward.
These "old neighbors" were very surprised that Tang Yin took the initiative to say hello, you must know that in the past, Tang Yin walked with his head down and rarely paid attention to people!
People looked at each other strangely, but Tang Yin could still understand it, after all, he was indeed not a polite person at that time.
When he walked into the door of his house in the tube building, Tang Yin's eyes were inexplicably a little wet and hot. As far back as I can remember, the family has always lived in this low, cramped building and has never bought a new house.
This is mainly because Tang Yin's grades are not good, and he has always gone to school at a high price, and his family can't have any money left. What's more, both parents work in daily chemical factories, and their income is very limited?
As soon as she entered the house, Qiao Qiumei, Tang's mother who was wearing an apron, rushed over and hugged Tang Yin's thin shoulders, her eyes were moist, and her expression was full of nervousness.
"Oh! …… Yin'er, I stewed chicken soup to make up for you, and you can't make up for your body if you don't make up for the exam soon. ”
Qiao Qiumei's heart has been carried in the past few days, and she is about to take the high school entrance examination, but at this critical moment, her son Tang Yin was suddenly hospitalized. Fortunately, it was finally found that Tang Yin was fine, otherwise I don't know how sad she would be.
Mother's words made Tang Yi's whole body tremble. He instantly felt a little choked in his throat, and he remembered that his mother was like this, and he wanted to cut off the flesh on his body and give him to eat.
It's a pity that in those young and frivolous years, he couldn't understand the deep meaning of his parents at all, and his words and deeds were very rebellious, which broke his parents' hearts.
As a result, it gradually caused symptoms such as malnutrition and low blood sugar, and the height of adults was only about 1.7 meters, which directly had nothing to do with being tall and handsome.
Tang Yin secretly decided that since he was back, he had to live a good life. Although you don't talk about fame and fame, you must at least be worthy of yourself, your parents, and all the people who care about and love you, and you care about your closest relatives.
"Okay, I happen to be hungry too. But you and your father also have to eat with your son, let me eat alone, and it won't taste good! If you want to change yourself, you must first start with your thoughts, and at this moment, Tang Yin treats everything around him with a grateful heart.
Qiao Qiumei stared at her baby son Tang Yin in surprise, she felt that her son was a little weird, but she couldn't say what the blame was. But she keenly noticed that her son was indeed different from before, as if he had changed people.
Soon, the mother returned shortly after leaving, carrying a steaming bowl of black-bone chicken soup.
Tang Yin did not go to the bedroom to eat, but dined with his parents in the living room.
Sure enough, as Tang Yin expected, what was hidden at the bottom of his bowl were the internal organs and thighs of some chickens, but the bowls of his parents were full of skeletons or something. He gave some chicken to his parents and ate it himself.
- However, he drank the fragrant and warm chicken soup, but big tears dripped into the bowl, and he couldn't bear it.
In my memory, my parents have always been like this, taking care of themselves with wholehearted love. They pay all the money from their life's hard work, pay for their high school fees, buy a house, etc., and they never spend it.
In fact, they don't say it, Tang Yin also understands that when his parents bought the tube building, they hoped that after they had a house, they could find a decent daughter-in-law and start a family. It's a pity that until he has worked for many years, he is still a single.
This reminded Tang Yin of a touching story: an old man was old and had amnesia, but when his son knocked on the door, he said he didn't know him and refused to open the door, it turned out that he was holding a childhood photo of his son;
Once, when the son brought the old man to a banquet in a restaurant, the old man reached out and took a few pumpkin pies from his plate and put them in his pocket; The son Khan Ran asked the old man why? The old man replied, "My son likes to eat this the most, and I will take it home for my son......
The old man had forgotten everything, but he had not forgotten his son. It was precisely this incident that made Tang Yin suddenly realize: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the son wants to raise but does not wait!" The true meaning of this sentence. Gratitude spurred every cell in his body at that moment!
Tang Yin devoured three bowls of rice and drank two bowls of chicken soup, burped, and returned to his room in the shocked eyes of his parents.
Both parents are 10 years younger, although due to overwork, there are subtle crow's feet at the corners of their eyes, but they still maintain a young and healthy body, and their eyebrows also contain a beautiful yearning for the future, not as haggard as in memory.
In the memory, in the face of their repeated fiascos, their parents were also sad, sad, and depressed, but they never lost heart, and used everything they had to escort Tang Yin as always.
But in the face of his failures again and again, the faces of the people around him are ugly, and the eyes are also contemptuous, which are very vividly engraved in his mind.
In order to make his parents' life moist and happy, and in order to be able to trample the people he once despised, and to be worthy of his second life, Tang Yin began the final sprint for the high school entrance examination.
On the desk in the room, except for a few minor subjects that have been examined, the other main subjects are all neatly stacked.
He also put the schoolbag he brought home on the desk, and took out the difficult knowledge test papers and materials that Cai Yan brought him.
Looking at all the junior high school textbooks he had learned, Tang Yin not only smiled a little bitterly.
People are very good at crossing the protagonist, either breaking new ground or changing the dynasty, or they are like a fish in water in shopping malls and officialdom, and they have to repeat the exams they have failed.
But since he wants to change, he has to start from scratch, which he decided as early as the hospital. Tang Yin is not a person with huge ambitions, and his greatest wish is to just want his family to live a safe and healthy life.
In the past few days, Cai Yan and Bai Xue have helped Tang Yin review the questions, but they are all basic questions and are not comprehensive. And the difficult questions brought by Cai Yan today are the real essence.
These questions are really difficult, and they are the most typical types of questions selected by teachers from the types of questions in the past years, and they are also specially prepared for top students like Cai Yan.
Teachers do this, there is no selfish idea, students like Tang Yin, they can't even solve the basic questions, and starting to solve difficult test questions is no different from looking for death.
With several days of high-intensity study consolidation, Tang Yin has completely entered that real learning state, and at this time, he entered the state of doing questions very quickly, and there was no drag.
Returning here from the era of the information explosion, Tang Yin has far more learning and problem-solving methods than this era. Once you really calm down, you don't feel difficult to understand, and the power that erupts is also strong.
This is a true portrayal of the connection between theory and practice, which has been practiced in life, and now it is not an ordinary positive energy to go back and learn theory.
Tang Yin picked up the lamp and read at night, which surprised his parents.
According to the usual habits, Tang Yin either dominated the TV at this time, or slipped out of the house to call friends to play games, and even called it a beautiful name: a combination of work and rest, big exams, big exams, small exams, and small plays. Anyway, I have never been like today, after eating, I went into the room alone and read at night.
After the rescue incident, Tang Yin suddenly seemed to be a different person, which made his parents both surprised and entangled.
