Wang Aiguo ate a delicious stewed snake soup that day, tasted the delicious taste of snake meat, and was very greedy for a while, so that as long as he didn't go to work in the afternoon, he secretly went to Tutang Mountain to dig rabbit holes everywhere to find hibernating snakes. After a few days, Wang Li learned about this, and after knowing it, Wang Aiguo taught him a hard lesson, after all, there are not only poisonous cauliflower snakes on the mountain, but also poisonous bamboo leaf green, if you dig up a poisonous bamboo leaf green and accidentally bite it, if you can't rescue it in time, where can you still have a life.

Wang Aiguo gave Wang Li such a lesson, but he also settled down, he also heard that in previous years, there were people nearby who were poisoned and not rescued, he didn't dare to say that he must be so powerful, and he would not encounter that kind of bad luck. It's just that in the end, his heart is still wild, and he has to work against Wang Mei, so he runs out every day, and gradually mixes with other people in the house, and once he actually found out to Wang Li that he started smoking.

Wang Li was half angry, although she was just smoking hookah, but there were two of them, he was only thirteen years old, and if she continued like this, it would be terrible. It's still a loss for the past few years, no one dares to play cards and gamble, otherwise, there is really no guarantee that Wang Aiguo will not gamble with others.

Originally, I wanted to solve Wang Mei's matter first, but now that I think about it, the matter of letting Wang Aiguo continue to go to school can't be delayed. It's now '72, and the New Year is '73, and it's not long before the college entrance examination resumes in '77. Once her son told her that the college entrance examination in '77 is the easiest and most difficult after the resumption of the college entrance examination, the simplicity lies in its simple topic, and the difficulty lies in the fact that it is the first college entrance examination after the resumption of the examination, from the announcement to the start of the examination for less than two months, most people do not even have complete information, let alone review, and later, those who are admitted to the university are both fresh high school graduates, old three, factory workers, and fresh junior high school graduates.

Moreover, in the future society, under the same conditions, without culture and diploma, it will be much more difficult to do things. She didn't want to see her only brother leave her hometown to work as a carpenter in the future.

However, this matter has to be explained to the younger brother first, and then do the work of the father, as for her mother, this will inevitably disagree, in the last life, in the New Year, she sent her younger brother to the town to learn carpenter, and said that she would eat and live, and be an apprentice for three years in vain.

On this day, there was no need to go to work in the afternoon, and after the family had lunch, Wang Aiguo wanted to run out again. He has been playing well with the family in the house these days, and has already agreed to go to the abandoned brick kiln at the west end of the house to play poker. I remembered that his second sister told him just now that he wanted him to leave late, he was a little anxious, if he was late, there would be no place, and he didn't grab the position yesterday, so he could only watch the dog win a small bag of tobacco leaves, which was smoked by himself.

This cigarette is so beautiful to smoke, Jiawang also said that the kind of cigarette smoked by people in the city tastes better. He felt that the hookah was delicious enough, and he didn't know how good the cigarette could be. Now, he wanted to win more tobacco leaves, so he took his pipe and smoked it well.

Just when he was about to get impatient, he finally saw Wang Li come out of the kitchen. He felt a little resentful about the eldest sister in his heart, he really didn't do any work and pushed it to the second sister, and after eating, he went into the house, and he didn't know what he was doing.

Wang Li dragged Wang Aiguo to the backyard, where no one could hear what she said, and what she said would not be heard by others.

"Patriotic, have you ever thought about continuing to go to school?"

Wang Aiguo was very surprised: "What are you doing in school? I can now earn six cents a day. ”

Wang Li persuaded him: "You can recruit workers in the county later, but as long as you are a junior high school student, you will also have the opportunity to recruit workers as city people after graduating from junior high school." ”

Wang Aiguo frowned and said: "Even if it is to recruit workers, it will not be our family's turn, my mother said, send me to learn a carpenter's craft during the New Year, and I don't need to learn so much." ”

Wang Li patiently explained: "It's right to learn carpenter, but to make a lot of money, at least you have to be a good carpenter, you have to make people beg to make furniture, then this craft must be good, if you can draw fresh patterns, will you draw fresh patterns?" Moreover, to be a carpenter, you must not only have strength, but also bend over and hook your back every day, and after a long time, your back is hunched. Look at the rat in the house, his father, the carpenter's work, isn't it just that the back is made of a camel? ”

Wang Aiguo wanted to say that his father was originally a hunchback, but he thought of being a carpenter to paint something fresh, and hesitated, he had a headache when he saw the picture, in this way, can he really be a good carpenter? If you don't do it well, you can be an apprentice for three years.

As soon as Wang Li saw him like this, she knew that he was shaken, in his previous life, he could only be dead, and never turned over tricks, in the end, he couldn't get a good job when he went out to work, he could only sell his strength, and he couldn't make any money, and now he has the opportunity to choose another path, of course, he can't take the road that he once failed.

She added, "I remember you weren't good at math?" When I was in a literacy class, I heard those educated youths say that if you learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, you are not afraid to go all over the world, if you go back to school and learn well in the future, won't you be afraid of anything? ”

Wang Aiguo said helplessly: "The exam is not only about mathematics, but also about Chinese. Those educated youths said well, they are high school students, and they have learned mathematics, physics and chemistry well, but they still have to go to our house to farm like us, and they are always hungry if they don't plant well. ”

Glancing at Wang Aiguo, Wang Li looked left and right, leaned into his ear and whispered, "You really think they will stay for the rest of their lives." Maybe, in a few years they will all have to leave and return to the city to recruit workers. She remembered that Zhang Feng left first in the year after tomorrow, and then in the next two years, Zhao Bingcheng was left among the seven educated youths, which is part of the reason why Zhao Bingcheng had to take the college entrance examination in 77 years.

When Wang Aiguo heard this, his mouth was open for a long time: "Could it be that they will really leave?" ”

Hehe, with a smile, Wang Li said, "Now Pan Yan won't leave." ”

Wang Aiguo didn't talk about life for a long time, so Wang Li continued: "You see, in the past, the Red Guards were so fierce, and the teachers in the township schools pulled them out every day to criticize, but now? The students have been in class every day, and the literacy classes have been opened, which means that the above has begun to pay attention to culture, or I would have taken Ah Fang and Ah Xia to class every day to do something. If it weren't for the fact that my mother wouldn't have agreed, I would have wanted to go to school. You are the only son in our family, if you insist, your father will agree, and your mother will let you go no matter how unwilling your father is. ”

Wang Aiguo still doesn't believe it: "Do you really want to look at the culture?" When I went to school two years ago, I read quotations every day, and I read the textbooks by myself. ”

Wang Li said affirmatively: "Of course, without the instructions from above, do the people in the township dare to do this?" ”

Wang Aiguo hesitated again: "I'll go back now, I'm so old, how embarrassing." ”

Wang Li said angrily: "You can just transfer to the fourth grade after the New Year, and you are not much older than others." By the way, can you keep up in fourth grade? No, I'm still in the third grade. ”

Wang Aiguo blushed and said angrily: "Who said I can't keep up, I will definitely be able to go to the fourth grade!" After finishing speaking, I hurriedly ran to the hall, thinking as I ran, I not only have to go to the fourth grade, I also have to take the junior high school exam, I have to go to high school after junior high school, and when I come back from high school, I can still be the accountant in the house, and I don't have to go to the field like my father every day in the future, and I can get the same work as my father, which is beautiful. As for the recruitment of workers in the county, he didn't dare to think about it, mainly because there was no way to recruit workers.

The more I thought about it, the happier I became, and I forgot to play cards with Jiawang and them, and I didn't think about smoking.
