After the final exam results of that year came down, Jiang Sheng, Xiao Wu and I were still in the top three in the class, Jiang Sheng was a full score, and Xiao Wu and I failed to do the last question of arithmetic because we were out of the syllabus, so the score difference between Jiang Sheng and Jiang Sheng was a bit big.

Mr. Zhang said that with our results, it should be no problem to be admitted to Peking No. 1 Middle School.

But after the admission letter came down, only Jiang Sheng was admitted in the entire Qiantang Town.

Beiping No. 1 Middle School was the top middle school of that era, and those who could be admitted to it would either be dragons or phoenixes in the future, and it is said that Xiao Baylor in the capital also studied in that school.

Beiping No. 1 Middle School is in the city, far away from Qiantang Town, if you go to study, you have to live in the school, and generally those who can get in are either rich or expensive, and the children of poor families can be admitted unless they are particularly outstanding.

Mother is naturally extremely happy, as always, excellent Jiang Sheng never let her down, Mr. Zhang is also happy, Jiang Sheng was admitted to Peking No. 1 Middle School with the first place This is also his honor, and it is in vain that he has worked hard for five years to educate us.

But when the notice arrived, Jiang Sheng tore it up, everyone present was shocked and stunned, Mr. Zhang was angry, and his mother raised her slap to slap Jiang Sheng and asked him why.

Jiang Sheng has too many reasons to explain why he did not go to Peking No. 1 Middle School.

As the best middle school, it is not an exaggeration to say that Beiping No. 1 Middle School is a noble school, not to mention that the tuition fee is expensive, it is more than ten times that of the middle school below, even the food money is not affordable by poor peasant families, my mother provides for the three of us to go to school alone, if Jiang Sheng goes to Beiping No. 1 Middle School, she can't afford to supply.

In the past year, my mother took care of all the work in the fields in order to provide for us to go to school, and she said that she had found a good job in the town, but in fact he went to find the construction team where his father had worked, because she was uneducated and did not know how to work, so she had to work as hard as most of them, and she was the dirtiest and most tiring cement worker.

At that time, the foreman said, "You can't do such heavy work as a woman." ”

The mother said, "I can." ”

The foreman said, "I can't do it, there are few men who can do it." ”

The mother said, "I can." ”

So my mother was left behind and worked for more than a year.

Jiang Sheng once secretly went to the construction site where his mother was, when her hair was coiled up, she was wearing dirty clothes, and she was stirring cement with a group of men, and he almost didn't recognize it.

Her mother said that her salary was very high, but she did the same work as her father when he was alive, but it was much heavier than his father's work, and it always felt like an atonement.

Another reason is that Jiang Sheng doesn't want to be separated from us, he doesn't want to go far away, and the students who are admitted to Beiping No. 1 Middle School go to other middle schools for free, but also have scholarships.

But Jiang Sheng didn't say these reasons, he said: "Because my father is Chen Gongbo." ”

Yes, the big traitor Chen Gongbo is talented, and it is a matter of course that his son gets a full score, whether he has or not, Peking No. 1 Middle School, he will have this score, in other words, it is the same wherever he studies.

Mother is naturally angry, she hates Chen Gongbo, loves Jiang Zhengyang, Xiao Wu told her mother about the situation of Beiping No. 1 Middle School, saying that it is a noble school, if Jiang Sheng goes to study, he and I will have a hard life, my mother is a little relieved when she hears it.

However, this incident made her mother have a knot, and when she missed Jiang Sheng many times in the future, she always felt that she owed Jiang Sheng something.

There is no middle school in Qiantang Town, but there is a middle school in the neighboring town of Liyuan.

Liyuan Town is located in the suburbs of Beiping, located in a place called Dongdan in Dongcheng District, surrounded by small hills and forests, few residential areas, to the north is the avenue leading to Dongzhimen, next to Qiantang Town, the school is built here away from the population, it is very quiet.

The brothers and sisters in Liyuan were very happy to know that Jiang Sheng was studying in Liyuan Middle School, and they usually either went out to perform with Hu Xiaomeng, or they were locked up in the garden by Master Long and Master Guan and couldn't get out, and only Hu Xiaomeng could go out alone.

The brothers and sisters are now literate, they miss Jiang Sheng, and they have written letters to ask Hu Xiaomeng to bring the letter to Jiang Sheng.

Jiang Sheng read all the letters from his brothers one by one, Xi'er missed him very much, and wanted him to go to the pear orchard to see, now Xi'er is twelve years old, Xiao Wu and I are also twelve years old, and Jiang Sheng is fourteen.

There are two classes in the sixth grade of Liyuan Middle School, I am in the same class as Jiang Sheng and Xiaowu, and Zhao Dahai was assigned to another class, at that time, the three of us studied very hard, and we usually didn't have much contact when we were in school, and because Liyuan Middle School was nearly thirty miles away from Sanlitun, so we couldn't go home every day like before, the three of us lived in the school, and my mother would give us a fixed living allowance every month.

Qin Fei and Wang Wei in the original class have dropped out of school, and even Wang Hu, who has a wealthy family, has dropped out of school and stopped studying.

The students of Liyuan Middle School came from all over the town, and there were everyone, and the law and order was not good at that time, and the school could not control the students, so the students formed gangs everywhere and fought all day long.

Every night, there are students fighting in the playground and dormitory, and the teachers at the school can't manage it if they want to.

Xiao Wu was the boss of the school when he was in Qiantang Town Primary School, even the senior students were afraid to see him, maybe they were afraid of causing trouble for their mother, after going to Liyuan Middle School, Xiao Wu's temper was restrained a lot, and he never fought in the class.

At that time, most of the students spoke more impulsively, looking like they were not afraid of heaven and earth, there were more than 80 people in the class, and there were more than 60 boys, and sometimes they would fight in class.

Xiao Wu because of physical development, from the original short and fat little fat man to a slightly strong teenager, at that time Xiao Wu was very able to eat, every time he ate four or five bowls of rice, he alone ate more than me and Jiang Sheng, so Jiang Sheng's monthly meal money was more even to Xiao Wu.

Because Zhao Dahai is not in the same class as us, and Zhao Dahai's personality has always been vigorous and resolute, he has only been around Xiao Wu for a long time and has been suppressed by Xiao Wu's nature, after not being in the same class as us, Zhao Dahai has become the leader of the student gangsters in the neighboring class, his father Zhao Fugui is rich, and he is willing to give him flowers.

Shen A-Niang had already given birth to a baby at that time, it was a girl, and she was tied after giving birth, so Zhao Fugui doted on Zhao Dahai even more, he didn't know how many jars of gold bars were buried in his yard, and Zhao Dahai didn't smoke marijuana, gambled or prostitutes, how much could he spend?

Xiao Wu has been safe in school for half a year, he is as tall as Jiang Sheng, and his body is strong, so ordinary people don't dare to mess with him at all, sometimes some students think that he is stupid and big to provoke him, and Xiao Wu also turns a blind eye and pretends not to see it.

But there will always be things that are right and wrong, and Xiao Wu finally got into a fight at school.

At that time, the school cafeteria only had three windows, and it took a long time to queue up for dinner every day.

And Xiao Wu also fought with others because of the problem of queuing.

The person who cut in the queue was a boy in the second year of junior high school, bareheaded, smoking a cigarette and squeezing in.

At that time, I was standing at the front of the line, Xiao Wu and Jiang Sheng stood behind me in turn, the bald head glanced at me, squeezed in front of me, Xiao Wu stretched out his hand and pushed the bald head aside, and the bald head kicked over.

Xiao Wu raised his hand and grabbed the bald head's feet, flipped the bald head to the ground, the bald head got up, scolded and shouted in his mouth, and soon the students in the second grade of junior high school and the bald head in the same class gathered, and a thin boy said fiercely: "Boss, who bullied you?" ”

The bald head pointed at Xiao Wu, and several people walked over to Xiao Wu, and Xiao Wu said: "I don't want to fight, don't mess with me." ”

"Yo, you're brain-sick, aren't you?" The skinny boy reached out and grabbed Xiao Wu's collar.

Xiao Wu grabbed the thin boy's arm, buckled him in his hand, twisted his hand, the thin boy immediately shouted, Xiao Wu pushed the thin boy away, looked at the bald head and said, "Let them go, don't come to mess with me." ”

Xiao Wu's words completely angered the other party, a tall boy kicked from behind Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu didn't notice it, was kicked and staggered forward, and the rice bowl in his hand also fell to the ground.

Xiao Wu turned around and smashed it with a punch, smashing it on the side of the tall boy's face, and knocking the tall boy to the ground with a heavy blow.

Seeing this, Jiang Sheng hurriedly stopped Xiao Wu, looked at the bald head and said, "Don't fight the person who wants you." ”

"What the are you?" Although the bald head saw that Xiao Wu could fight, he was not afraid, and let a group of people rush up to fight Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu punched down a few fists and hit the three or five people who rushed up to the ground, his fist was too heavy, and these long-term yellow-faced and thin teenagers couldn't help beating at all, the bald head was startled, and retreated to the stone pillar in the center of the canteen, and was smashed on the bridge of his nose by Xiao Wuyi's fist, and the back of his head was heavily pressed against the stone pillar, Xiao Wuyi's fist was taken into the bald head's abdomen, and then the bald head curled up on the ground was lifted, he carried the bald foot, and suddenly fell to the side.

"Little Five!" Jiang Sheng scolded Xiao Wu loudly.

Xiao Wu seemed to be red-eyed, awakened by Jiang Sheng's voice, and looked at the few people on the ground who were turning on their backs, as well as the bald head that had passed out, so he felt troublesome.

The bald head was beaten into a concussion, the nose bone was also broken, the rest were injured to varying degrees, and the mother was called to school to pay for it.

Although the cause and effect of the incident are clear to the school, and the parents of all parties are also clear, but Xiao Wu had to pay money when he injured his mother, Xiao Wu cried a lot that day, and asked why, why did these people have to lose money when they were seriously injured when they bullied others, and he had to lose money.

Xiao Wu asked his mother to go, saying that he would deal with this matter, the school teacher put pressure on his mother, and if he didn't lose money, he would expel Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu hated the school and those gangsters after this incident, and his mother didn't say anything about Xiao Wu, but just told him not to fight in the future.

Xiao Wu felt aggrieved, when Niu Aihua was there, he fought, Niu Aihua always protected him, the school wanted to expel him, Niu Aihua made trouble at school, and after going to middle school, students in each village had to leave their home address and the phone number that the village could contact in the student information column.

If Niu loves flowers, Xiao Wu can be angry, but his mother is not his biological mother, with me and Jiang Sheng, Xiao Wu can't be angry, he can only endure it, just like Jiang Sheng endured his father before.
