The light rain is still dripping.

July is one of the hottest months of the year, but the drizzle has cooled down a lot over the past few days.

At about nine o'clock in the morning, on the side of the large playground of Yungang Middle School in Changshan City, more than 200 umbrellas of various styles were crowded together to form a colorful picture. In the dim days all around, it adds a lot of beautiful colors.

It stands to reason that this time is the time of the school's summer vacation, and it is impossible to gather so many students, but today is an obvious exception, and the rain that is falling and fluttering cannot stop some young boys and girls who are hot in their hearts, all of whom have come to school on this rainy morning.

Today is the day when the college entrance examination admission list is released!

As the best high school in the small city of Changshan, Yungang Middle School is relatively small, with more than 200 students per session. But in this small place with a population of only four or five hundred thousand, it is a sacred place in the hearts of all parents and students! Because the enrollment rate of Yungang Middle School is as high as 30% every year, which is a dazzling achievement in the small city of Changshan! You know, the other two middle schools together are less than half of this number!

So, today is a big day for the graduates of this school!

"Huh!"

When the school staff swiped the two bright red notices with the back of the brush and made sure that it was firmly standing on it, they immediately left with interest.

With a "boom", more than 200 people immediately surrounded it!

It is related to the future development of everyone, naturally no one dares to slack off, more than 200 students gathered in front of a display board, pushing and shouting, lively and lively tiptoeing, looking for their names on two big red papers.

"Ha Luha, I got in! Lucy University, my dad finally has nothing to say now......"

"Fourth, did you find your own name? Hehe, I think we two will continue to go to school in the same city...... "......

Soon, many people shouted in surprise!

At this time, the people who dare to shout so excitedly are naturally on the list, as for those students who are not on the list, at this time, they either look for it again with their eyes wide in disbelief, or they are extremely sad, where will they make a sound?

When they entered the school, everyone was the elite of the entire Changshan City, but today, three years later, everyone was very clearly divided into two worlds by these two big red notices at this moment, one was ecstatic and the other was sad.

In a few minutes at most, hundreds of people quietly left.

Some of the friends of the losers subconsciously chased after them, but more of the ones on the list stayed, and the surrounding classmates who were also on the list happily discussed, noisy, and longing......

Hardly anyone thought much about the students who left.

Although a few minutes ago, everyone was still classmates on an equal footing, although they were not deeply involved in the world, and the concept of certain things in their simple minds was not very clear, but this did not prevent these students, who were in an extremely happy mood at this time, from instinctively producing a vague concept, that is, these people who stayed behind seemed to be very different from the group of people who had just left......

"Huh? Sun Peng is here! ”

Just as everyone was eagerly communicating about the universities they were admitted to and looking forward to their lives in the next few years, a student inadvertently shook off and suddenly screamed in surprise!

"Sun Peng?"

After hearing this name, everyone was slightly stunned, and they quickly quieted down!

"Ahem! Cough! ”

Two coughs, which were tried to suppress, came from afar in the gaps in the falling rain, and everyone's eyes looked over, and a thin figure walked from the direction of the academy gate.

The person who came was not tall, that is, the appearance of an ordinary person, but his body seemed quite thin, and he had to cough a few times when he walked for a while, which made people uncomfortable. So when the visitor came closer, the students quietly stepped back and made way for him to make way to the notice board.

This is a very delicate young man, with thin eyebrows, big eyes, straight nose, thin lips, fair skin and even slightly transparent color, and smooth hair hanging down naturally, but there is a bit of free and easy.

"Good morning, everyone."

Nodding politely at everyone, the young man named Sun Peng smiled and said hello, then stood still in front of the notice board and began to look for his name.

"Sun Peng, your name is in the first place!"

At this time, a beautiful girl in a fiery red dress stepped forward, stood side by side with Sun Peng, tilted her head and smiled: "You are the first in our school, congratulations, you have been admitted to Chongshan Military Academy!" ”

"Thank you!"

With a general reflex, Sun Peng smiled and nodded at the girl next to him, and then looked at the top position on the left side of the big red good news!

Sure enough, Sun Peng's two words are in the first place!

Although everyone began to resume the conversation just now, but faintly, everyone's eyes looked at Sun Peng's location intentionally or unintentionally, and there was a hint of envy in his eyes, after all, his score was a lot higher than others, and even nearly forty points higher than the second place, that is, the girl in red!

You must know that this score is an absolute high score in the entire Tiannan Province!

It's just that to the small surprise of others, Sun Peng at this time seemed to have expected it, his face was still calm, and it was only after a few seconds that the corners of his mouth showed a less obvious arc.

"But it's a bit of a pity to study at Chongshan Military Academy with this score."

The girl in red said softly: "Whether it is the top universities of those non-military academies, or the Capital Military Academy and the First Military Academy in the Southeast, your score is enough...... It's a pity, and in the case of the military academy, I heard that you have to go through very strict physical training, and you will have to work in a designated place after graduation...... What a shame! ”

"Huh."

The girl in red had three pity in a row, but Sun Peng's brows moved slightly, and then said with a smile: "Actually, there is no pity, Chongshan Military Academy is relatively close to home, and I don't have to pay tuition, which is quite suitable for me." ”

"This ......"

Hearing Sun Peng's explanation, the girl in red was slightly stunned, and then shook her head disapprovingly. The reason for being close to home is not mentioned for the time being, but is the reason for the high cost of tuition really a reason?

Although the university tuition is indeed relatively expensive, and she also knows that Sun Peng's family conditions are not too good, it is not easy to enroll in Yungang Middle School, which is twice as expensive as other schools, and it should be the limit in three years. But don't forget, you can take out a loan at the university!

With Sun Peng's score, he can definitely study in a good university and major, and it will be easy to seek student loans!

It is impossible for a savvy bank to give up these high-quality customers, or students who will inevitably be high-quality customers in the future, as long as they ask for a bank at will, the other party will definitely provide all the tuition fees without hesitation! Not only can it be a business, but it will also allow these excellent students to build strong relationships very early, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

No one doubts that these students will not be able to repay their loans, and no one doubts that they will deliberately default or simply not repay their loans.

But at this moment, the matter has become a foregone conclusion, and the relationship between the two is usually limited to ordinary classmates, so the girl in red just sighed secretly and didn't say anything more. The reason why she has these two more words is just because as the second place in the school this year, she admires Sun Peng, who is nearly forty points higher than herself, so she has some regrets in her heart.

"By the way, Sun Peng, are you free later?"

After being silent for a moment, the girl in red suddenly asked again: "Today is a big day for the release of the list, everyone just discussed it, and is going to find a place to celebrate by yourself first, only us classmates, can you go?" ”

"I'll leave it at that."

Without any hesitation, Sun Peng immediately shook his head with a smile, and said slightly apologetically: "The family is still waiting for my good news, so ...... I'm sorry, but have fun! ”

The girl in red had expected Sun Peng's reaction a long time ago, so she was not surprised, and nodded with a smile and stopped talking. Everyone has been in the same school for three years, and it seems that they have not seen this Sun Peng have had slightly closer contact with other classmates, and it is normal to refuse directly. The girl is sensitive, and she always feels that although this Sun Peng is very polite to communicate with people, there is such a sense of distance from a giant thousands of miles away in her bones.

"See you again, then, guys."

After glancing at his name again, and bowing politely to several classmates around him, Sun Peng walked away.

In an instant, the coughing sound that sounded from time to time gradually faded away......

"What a weirdo!"

After Sun Peng left, a girl touched the shoulder of the girl in red, and pouted: "Yuanyuan, you personally opened your mouth to invite, but he still refused, he was as unsociable as before!" And with such a high score, which school in China can't read? What kind of Chongshan Military Academy are you going to study! It's a good school, but it's not the best, is it? ”

"Maybe it's like he said, because it's closer to home."

Her eyes kept staring at the figure that was gradually moving away, and the girl in red named Yuanyuan said a little dazedly.

"Then why do you want to go to a military academy?"

The girl in black shook her head and retorted: "His health has always been bad, and he has not stopped coughing in the past few years of studying, studying at the Military Academy...... Can you stand it? I suspect he won't be able to pass the first physical examination when he enters the school! ”

"This ......"

After hesitating for a moment, the girl in red smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Who knows, this is his own choice anyway, and the consequences can only be borne by himself." Besides, the military academy doesn't necessarily have to be in particularly good health...... right......

"I'm finally home!"

Seeing the door not far ahead, Sun Peng stomped his feet full of black mud and let out a long breath. His body was not very good, he felt a hint of coolness in the rain, extremely uncomfortable, and he could finally return to the warm home at this time, which made him smile on his face.

"Ahem! Cough! ”

"Xiaopeng, you're back!"

As soon as he entered the door, Sun Peng's coughing voice led to a slightly hoarse female voice, and when he raised his eyes, his sister Sun Qian greeted him with a worried face.

"Sister, didn't you go to work today?"

Seeing that he was the only relative in this world, Sun Peng's heart suddenly rose with a warm current, and the chill on his body instantly dissipated a lot.

"I just went to ask for leave!"

Casually replied, Sun Qian's eyes widened and she asked urgently, "The rain hasn't stopped, why did you still run to school by yourself?" Wouldn't it be the same if I went to see it in the afternoon, and how good would it be for me to accompany you then? ”

Standing on the spot and letting his sister gently wipe the rain sprinkled on her body, Sun Peng said with a smile: "Hurry up and know that you can feel at ease early, sister, I was admitted to Chongshan Military Academy, this is the best military academy in the country, not only is the tuition free, but also there are a lot of allowances to get every month!" ”

"Really?"

Although he had long known that his younger brother would definitely be admitted, Sun Qian's face still showed ecstasy at this moment!

It's just that after the joy, Sun Qian's face changed, and she still pointed her brother's forehead with her finger angrily, shook her head and sighed: "Even if I don't understand it anymore, I know that at least the Kyoto Military Academy and the Southeast First Military Academy are much better than it!" You, you just chose this school just to be closer to home, and ...... Alas, it's all my sister's inability, otherwise why would you ......"

"Sister!"

Grabbing Sun Qian's thin shoulders, Sun Peng shook his head and stopped his sister from continuing: "You have paid too much for me over the years, and now I can finally support myself, you should be happy, why bother saying these words again?" ”

"Yes, yes!"

After listening to her brother's words, Sun Qian also felt that she shouldn't say these things on today's happy day, so she quickly changed her mood, nodded and said happily: "It's time to be happy!" Wait a minute, I've prepared a lot of your favorite food today, let's start eating right away! ”

After speaking, Sun Qian's footsteps were brisk, and watching her sister's figure disappear behind the kitchen door, Sun Peng's eyes once again showed tenderness.

Since the death of his parents when he was six years old, Sun Peng was single-handedly pulled by his sister, who was eight years older than him. After graduating from primary school, Sun Qian began to work to earn money, not only to support her younger brother, but also to support him to go to school, which can be said to have endured enough hardships! Sun Peng didn't think about dropping out of school to earn money or something like that, but with his body, he really couldn't do any work, and his sister Sun Qian was also desperately opposed, and even threatened his younger brother to death that he must be admitted to college!

Because this is also the wish shared by the parents who died young.

So for his sister's dedication, Sun Peng not only put it in his eyes, but also remembered it in his heart. Sun Qian is twenty-six years old this year, which can be regarded as an old girl in a small place like Changshan, but in order to be able to concentrate on taking care of her younger brother, Sun Qian has never considered her marriage. You must know that although she is not very beautiful, Sun Qian is quite handsome, and her character is obvious to all, and she is very sought-after among the young men around......

The things had been prepared a long time ago, Sun Qian's hands and feet were quick, and she quickly made four dishes and one soup, and the two sisters and brothers began to eat happily.

"Sister, after receiving the admission letter in two days, I plan to leave for school early."

After eating for a while, Sun Peng suddenly raised his head and said.

"Leaving early?"

Sun Qian was stunned for a moment and asked wonderingly, "When do you want to leave?" I remember that most universities don't start until the beginning of September, right? ”

"I want to go a month early!"

After hesitating for a moment, Sun Peng said in a low voice.

"A month?"

Sun Qian was taken aback, her eyes widened and she asked, "Why did you go to school so early?" And people are not familiar with the land, they don't even have a place to live, and I can't take such a long time off......"

"Sister, I'm admitted to a military school, and I can control when I go!"

Seeing that his sister was a little anxious, Sun Peng hurriedly explained: "And it's because I'm not familiar with it, so I want to go over as soon as possible to get familiar with it and get used to it." Besides, don't you know what I am? If you can take care of yourself, you can rest assured! ”

Although his body is relatively weak, but in other Sun Peng's performance can be described as perfect, when he was very young, his sister went out to work to earn money, he stayed at home alone and honestly, and took care of all the housework by the way, which Sun Qian also knew very well. But after thinking about it for a while, she was still very unhappy, shook her head and said: "Even if these are all right, but your eighteenth birthday is coming in a few days, if you really go so early in advance, it will be the first time that you don't have a sister by your side for your birthday...... How pitiful! It was the eighteenth birthday, and if it had been in the early years, the eighteenth birthday was a boy's coming of age, and it would have been impossible to be careless......"

"Hehe, this is not a special situation this year."

Casually speaking, Sun Peng smiled slightly, but sighed secretly in his heart: "It is precisely because my birthday is approaching, and eighteen years old is the traditional age of adulthood in this world, so I have to rush to that place on that day......"
