Chapter 2 Breaking the Boat

Except for mathematics, the other courses were not particularly difficult for Wang Qiao.

The fourth class is a history class, and the history teacher is Liu Zhong, the head of the repeater class, who has a completely different style from Zhan Compass, speaks slowly and logically, and likes to throw allusions to stun the students. Wang Qiao has read extensively since he was a child, at the request of his technical father, and he has been able to turn over the upper and lower episodes of "Five Thousand Years Up and Down". Liu Zhong's handbag was untechnical for him, and he spent half of his time in history class peeking at English or math books.

Ten ** years old is the most active period of metabolism, every fourth class, everyone is so hungry that their chests are close to their backs, and the smell of food and meat wafts from the canteen, causing everyone to sniff and swallow saliva. Today's last class happened to be the class of Liu Zhong, the head teacher of the repeat class, and when the bell rang for the next class, he talked about his excitement and had no intention of leaving the class.

The hearts of the classmates had long been hooked by the smell of food, and seeing that Liu Zhong habitually refused to get out of class happily, he gritted his teeth with hatred, and the bold classmates quietly knocked on the desk and made a crackling sound. Liu Zhong hated the "crackling" sound of urging the end of class the most in his life, sneered a few times, and said in a long voice: "Finally, let's remember clearly, this is a must for the next monthly exam." ”

In Liu Zhong's slow lecture, there was the footsteps of the students in the next class running towards the cafeteria, and the footsteps were as rapid as a drumbeat, knocking most of the students out of breath. Ten minutes later, Liu Zhong left the classroom with a glass of water satisfied, and the classmates rushed towards the cafeteria with their lunch boxes like hornets that had been stabbed in their nests.

A few students did not bring their lunch boxes to the classroom for various reasons, and went straight to the dormitory like ants on a hot pot.

Wang Qiao survived the difficult days in the No. 3 Detention Center in Quang Nam, tasted enough of hunger, and did not feel that it was a terrible thing to not eat at twelve o'clock, and every time he went back to the dormitory to get a lunch box, and then went to the canteen to eat unhurriedly.

At noon today, my sister Wang Xiao is coming from Yangzhou, the capital of Shannan Province, so he doesn't have to panic, he takes a cigarette and smokes slowly on the aisle. He has worked as a medical representative, traveled to Quang Nam, and entered a detention center, but he has long had the mentality of a high school student, and smoking is a common thing for him, and he has not deliberately avoided teachers.

The teaching building and dormitory building where the repeater class of Jingzhou No. 1 Middle School is located on the east side of the campus, and it is the old school building of No. 1 Middle School, which was discontinued in 1990. The new school building is located in the West End, which is far from the old school building.

After the school opened repeat classes, the old school building was reopened. In order to ensure that the repeater class and the graduating class do not disturb each other, a three-meter-high wall was built between the west and east districts, which completely divided the campus into the graduating area and the repeater area, with the graduating class entering the west campus from the main gate and the repeating class entering the east campus through the east side gate.

The East Campus has an independent canteen, which can meet the needs of hundreds of repeaters. There is a small playground on the left side of the fence, where you can play badminton and you can't take physical education classes. There are two PE classes a week in the repeater class, and during PE classes, students must first walk out of the east gate and walk nearly 200 meters from the off-campus road before entering the Jingzhou No. 1 Middle School campus from the main entrance to the stadium.

This wall gives the repeaters a strong psychological hint, making them feel discriminated against and insulted.

There was only one dormitory building in the old school building, and the dormitory building had three floors, the top floor was a girls' dormitory, and the first and second floors were boys' dormitories. In order to maintain the safety of the women's dormitory, an iron door was installed at the entrance of the stairs on the third floor, and the administrator locked the iron door on time at 11 o'clock every night.

Wang Qiao lived in the first dormitory on the second floor, the dormitory was converted from an old classroom, 22 bunk beds stuffed the room into canned sardines, and 44 students in the science and liberal arts classes were housed, which was as dense as the rooms in the No. 3 Detention Center in Quang Nam. Detention centers implement strict management policies, strict discipline, and clean and orderly interiors. And the first dormitory is full of books and miscellaneous items, messy, and full of all kinds of unimaginable weird smells.

Wang Qiao smoked a cigarette outside the hallway, went into the house to drink a glass of water, and sat on the bed to read the math test paper.

At this time, a young man of the same height as Wang Qiao came in, wearing a jacket and was quite handsome. He is Wu Chongbin, a son of the Hongqi Factory of the third-line factory, and belongs to the same big system as the Hongxing Factory where Wang Qiao's parents are located, because the two are naturally a little cordial.

Wu Chongbin dragged out a suitcase from under the bed, took the money from the box, straightened his waist, and said, "Wang Qiao, if you don't go to dinner, there will be some scum left in a while." ”

Wang Qiao's eyes did not leave the test paper, and said casually: "My sister is coming, I will go out with her to eat." ”

Wu Chongbin is a science student with average grades, he really can't understand why people who can only score nine points in mathematics should repeat, repeating is to enter the university, this kind of foundation obviously can't be admitted to the university, what is the point of repeating? Before going out, he glanced at Wang Qiao, who was concentrating on reading the test papers, and subconsciously shook his head.

Wu Chongbin went downstairs and walked out of the east side door.

The main gate of No. 1 High School is strictly managed, with two uniformed security officers on duty at all times, and every outsider who does not meet the status of a student is regarded as an aggressor. The east side gate is loosely managed, and the gatekeeper always has half-squinted eyes full of, allowing outsiders to enter and exit freely.

Wu Chongbin smiled dumbly when he thought of Wang Qiao's score, which invisibly increased his confidence in taking the college entrance examination. Walking out of the east side door, a small car drove up and stopped in front of the door, startling him. When he was about to get angry, the window rolled down, and a dignified and beautiful woman asked politely, "Is the repeater class here?" ”

Wu Chongbin's rising anger suddenly disappeared halfway, pointed behind him, and said, "The front is the teaching building, the back is the dormitory building, the first and second floors for boys, and the third floor for girls." ”

The woman was Wang Qiao's sister Wang Xiao, who originally wanted to drive to Jingzhou by herself, but her in-laws resolutely disagreed with her pregnant daughter-in-law to drive by herself, and sent the company's Blue Bird car to Jingzhou. The car drove inward from the east side door, and the gatekeeper did not react, and his head was not raised. Young people have a natural affection for the beautiful opposite sex, and Wu Chongbin looked back at the car until the car bypassed the school building and continued to move forward.

Hearing the horn of the car, Wang Qiao came out of the room and stepped downstairs in a few steps.

Wang Xiao was pregnant for five months, she was already pregnant, and her movement was not very convenient, so after getting out of the car, she put her hands on her waist and said: "Jingzhou No. 1 Middle School is quite famous, and the greenery is good, don't you invite me to the dormitory to have a look?" ”

"Sister, what's the point of the boys' dormitory, it stinks."

"Since you're here, you have to take a look. I represent not only me, but also your parents, who also care about your life. They don't care about you all these years, and they actually feel very guilty. ”

"Sister, you tell your parents in the future, I ran to Guangnan because I was ignorant, and it made the whole family worried, it was my fault, my parents don't take things on their shoulders."

"Erwa, you are sensible."

"After going through so many things, and being the same as a green-ass baby, the rivers and lakes have been in vain in the past few years."

followed his younger brother to the dormitory, although Wang Xiao was mentally prepared, he was still so smoked by the smell of stinky feet that he almost vomited, and hurriedly retreated to the aisle, retching a few times before relieving himself, and said, "Erwa, don't you classmates wash their feet?" It was totally a stench. ”

Wang Qiao has been in it for a long time, and he has long been unable to smell the real taste of it, and said with a smile: "The boys' dormitories are like this, and when I was in the dormitory of the Quang Nam factory before, the taste was even fresher than here." ”

Jingzhou No. 1 Middle School is famous in Jingzhou, Wang Xiao didn't expect the accommodation conditions to be so poor, and said, "How many people live in the dormitory?" ”

"There are 22 bunk beds and 44 people, which is more crowded than the No. 3 Detention Center in Quang Nam. This is a house specially for repeat students, and the accommodation conditions for fresh graduates are much better, 10 people per room. ”

Wang Xiao criticized: "The leaders of Jingzhou No. 1 Middle School are brainless, and the online rate of the college entrance examination in the repeating class is higher than that of fresh graduates. ”

Wang Qiao didn't care about the accommodation conditions, and said: "In the detention center, I look forward to being able to come out every day when nothing happens, and my biggest wish is to be a sanitation worker who has no quarrel with the world." Now that I have the opportunity to go to university, I am satisfied. ”

Wang Xiao took out a piece of paper from the small bag he was carrying and said, "I have something urgent to find you today, the Provincial Construction Bank wants to recruit temporary workers, and only recruits internal children, and Uncle Li has got a place for you." The opportunity is rare, I know that you are on crutches like Dad, and I came to Jingzhou to ask for your opinion. ”

Wang Qiao was ambitious to enter the university, and had no intention of joining the work, so he flatly refused: "Although I once thought about being a sanitation worker in the detention center, people's mentality will change with the environment. ”

Wang Xiao patiently explained: "Uncle Li used multiple layers of relationships to get this table, and ordinary people have no chance to become temporary workers in the Provincial Construction Bank, and it is very likely that they will become regulars." I think this is a good opportunity, otherwise I wouldn't have hurried over from Shannan to ask you to fill out the form. ”

Wang Qiao took the application form and did not speak for a long time.

Wang Xiao observed his younger brother's expression and said, "You don't want to?" If you really don't want to, don't force it. But you have to think about it, you only studied half a semester of high school, which means that you have not studied high school, and you want to complete the three-year course in ** month, how likely is it to be admitted to college, this time it is indeed a rare opportunity, and there is no such store in this village. ”

After thinking for a while, Wang Qiao made up his mind and said, "I understand Uncle Li's kindness, but since I am determined to take the college entrance examination, I can't quit halfway." There used to be a sentence that you have laughed at many times, called 'life can have several beats', you said it was very sour, but I don't think it was sour, now it's just a ruin, fight once. ”
