In the distance, the rooster announced the dawn, one after another, breaking the silence of the night.

On the dark blue sky, there are still a few small stars that are reluctant to go away, and the moon that is slowly sinking in the west has also lost its silver brilliance.

It will be another new dawn......

Zhicheng lay quietly on the broken wooden bed, his eyes wide open and he couldn't sleep anymore. is both worried and excited, because today is the day of the high school entrance examination, and the moment to decide his future and fate is coming soon.

From the high school entrance examination to the present, he has not slept a peaceful sleep, and even dreams of rushing to see the list, sometimes dreaming of the title of the gold list, sometimes dreaming of falling to Sun Shan, sometimes dreaming of squeezing in the crowd, but he can't squeeze in front of the red list.

In the past ten days after the high school entrance examination, it can be said that the days are like years. If you applied for a township ordinary high school or a county-level middle school, you don't have to be so nervous. Because with his results, he is sure to win.

Now he is applying for 'Hechang No. 1 Senior High School'. This is a well-known key middle school in the province and even the whole country, and even many students from other provinces have come here. Every year, tens of thousands of students apply for Hechang No. 1 Middle School, and it is said that it is more difficult to take the Hechang No. 1 Middle School than Peking University and Tsinghua University.

Zhicheng is most worried about his English scores, and he is very good in all subjects except English.

I usually put a lot of effort into English, but my grades just can't go up.

Although I studied English for three years in junior high school, I ended up barely understanding it except for a few common phrases, such as "goodmoring". Fortunately, most of the English test papers are multiple-choice questions, and when he takes the exam, he has to look at which one is pleasing to the eye.

After a hurried breakfast, he launched the broken bicycle that had accompanied him for three years. In order to get to school early, he rode fast, and he didn't care about the painful moaning/groaning of getting on the bike, and he couldn't wait to fly to the red list on campus immediately to catch a glimpse of that exciting moment.

Zhi came to live in Zaoshuwan, but Zaoshuwan is a well-known poor township in Haiyang County. So far, there is not even a junior high school, and the middle school students here can only go to Liuzihe Town, ten miles away, to study in junior high school.

Turning over the loess slope at the head of the village and crossing the familiar Xiangyang River, the school in the distance finally came into view. At this time, no matter what he did, he couldn't calm the excitement in his heart. What should I do if I don't pass the exam? Are you really ready to farm at home willingly? I jumped off the bike and reached out to wipe a handful of sweat on my forehead, but in fact, my palms were full of sweat.

At this time, the entrance of the school was crowded with new graduates from the third year of junior high school, and their expressions could be described as different. Some were triumphant, and some were listless and sighed. Some clapped their hands and applauded, while others secretly wept.

For a while, it was a stark contrast in front of the school gate. Zhicheng still doesn't know what his fate is! Looking at the high school entrance examination list surrounded by his classmates from afar, he was nervous and sweaty in his palms, and hurriedly set up his bicycle and entered the school gate with the flow of people.

The school had apparently weathered the storm for years, and the cement on the left doorpost had long since fallen off, revealing the weathered red bricks inside. The cement skirt on the doorpost on the right has cracked, and although it has not fallen off, it is still crumbling. The paint on the large iron gate has been disintegrated and speckled with rust beyond recognition. As for the school building in the courtyard, it is not much better! The door was dilapidated and the glass was mutilated.

This humble secondary school is the only junior high school in the three surrounding townships. In order to build and improve this middle school, the city and county finances have also allocated 100,000 yuan the year before, only 5 trees were planted at the school gate, and 80,000 yuan was allocated last year, but each class was replaced with a new desk (note that it is not a desk).

Over the years, the combined funding is enough to build ten such secondary schools, but it is self-evident where the money goes. I'm sure you all understand......

In addition, schools often charge students indiscriminately under the guise of improving the teaching environment.

Last week, 5 yuan per person was charged, and the hole in the wall between the men's and women's toilets was plugged. This week, each person paid 10 yuan just to buy two broken brooms for each class, and next week each person paid 8 yuan and I don't know what to do......

Zhicheng walked into the school gate, and found that the red list on the wall was surrounded by classmates and parents inside the three layers and the outer three layers, he was anxious outside the crowd, and he didn't get into it for a long time.

"Hey! Zhicheng, don't squeeze it in, be careful to squeeze out his mother's eggs. His old classmate came out of the crowd with great difficulty, sweating profusely, patted him on the shoulder and said regretfully: "You! Lose! It's such a fucking loss.,It's just 3 points short of dick/bar less than the main list.,Do you say it's a loss? ”

After listening to Da Fat's words, Zhicheng's heart couldn't help sinking, and he asked eagerly: "That...... How much do you have to pay? He has understood that he may have been hung in the middle, that is to say, he has been admitted to the exam, but the exam is not the main list, so he has to pay a lot of money, and for children from poor families, failing to pass the main list is basically equivalent to falling off the list.

At this time, Zhicheng's heart was already half cold, and what was even more annoying was that he was only 3 fucking points away. If he had been born into a wealthy family, the news would have been enough to make him elated.

When Zhicheng saw that the big fat giggling deliberately teased him, he couldn't help but push him and asked impatiently and loudly: "Oops! Tell me how much does the second list pay? ”

"it! Who knows how much to pay? It's as hot as a fire cage, how can I look so closely. Anyway, you were admitted, don't you just pay an extra thousand and eight hundred, that's all trivial. "Big Fat looks like he doesn't care about himself.

Da Pang also lives in Zaoshuwan, and Zhicheng often come and go together, so they are very familiar with each other, Da Fat's parents were originally farmers, but his uncle got into the county government step by step from the grassroots unit by interpersonal relationships, so he found a decent job for his parents in the county.

This is not too fat and Niu B roared up, and Chong Zhicheng said: "Zhicheng, do you have any relatives in the city?" Like our buddies, although I didn't get in, I still went to the county focus. Cut! Know why not? ”

The big fat asked himself arrogantly and replied: "Hmph, my uncle is the deputy county magistrate in the county, and everything will be done with just a phone call." In these years, as long as there is a tough character, the extra money to pay for the door will be free. I don't even pay a penny to go to school. I'm afraid that your relationship is not hard. If you can talk to the principal of No. 1 Middle School, or talk to the director of the Education Bureau, you can no longer have hard roots in the municipal party committee. The big fat shook his arm and said, "As long as you know one here, it, you won't pay a penny then, and you can go to school." ”

"You, it's not for nothing!" Zhicheng said impatiently: "Then if I know Lord Yama, I will be even more bull......"

The big fat was also happy, and said with a smile: "That's right, if you really know 'Lord Yama', fuck it, the UN Secretary-General has to nod his fucking head when he sees you!" If you don't dare to nod your head, let's call Lord Yama and kill him immediately. ”

The big fat still wanted to talk endlessly, but who knew that he was touched by a solid girl behind him, so he turned his head and yelled impatiently at the girl who bumped into him: "What the hell is this?" You don't have long eyes! Where the are you touching it? A big living person can't be seen in front of your eyes, he's a dick. ”

"Hmph, what the can you do if you touch you, who told you to stand here, deserve!"

Obviously, the girl is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she said with a fierce momentum: "Why didn't I fucking touch you!" ”

"Yo hey, you're pretty dick/hard! It's a fucking cock, I'm not standing on your table again, you fucking care! What a brick of a pit - stinky and hard! Milk balls. ”

The girl shot back, "Your titty balls, fuck you!" Auntie, I'm not easy to mess with. ”

"Hmph, Grandpa, I'm not easy to bully! You touched me first, what do you want? The old of the milk ...... "The big fat crosses the waist, and he looks unforgiving."

The girl pointed at the big fat head and yelled: "Your milk is an old sao B, your milk is an old sao B, your milk is an old sao ......B, you are an old sao B" This girl did not show weakness, a knife mouth scolded people like a cannon and a machine gun, and the big fat who spat at the stars couldn't open her eyes.

When Da Fat saw that he was not an opponent, he yelled: "My second aunt, phew!" Lao Tzu can't scold you little slut B Nizi, right? After saying that, he jumped and ran.

Zhicheng has long been familiar with the noise and yelling between such male and female students on rural campuses, and sometimes they yell and scold each other because of a little fart.

Just as Zhicheng was frowning, another old classmate came out of the crowd panting, and his face was also hot and sweaty. As soon as he saw Zhicheng, he smiled and said: "Zhicheng, you fucking got in, the title of the silver list, it's fucking good!" As he spoke, he patted Zhicheng hard on the shoulder, then picked up his dirty little vest and wiped the sweat beads on his face and said, "Fuck, there are so many people inside, I'm going to die!" ”

"Youguang, then do you know how much money the second list pays?" Zhicheng asked eagerly staring at him.

"I really haven't paid much attention to how much money to pay, the first list of students in the city seems to pay 1,600 yuan, and the second list of students will definitely not be less than 2,500 yuan, the key point of the city! Of course, you have to pay a little more, in fact, students like you on the silver list were originally gold list students. But in order to get more money, the school had to wronged you and forced you to ......."

Li Youguang stretched out his palm and made a hint of cutting off his head: "Market economy!" Money comes first! Hmph, these days, having money can make Bao Qingtian a bastard! Rich can let Mulan take the lead in opening a brothel! Money can turn the earth upside down, and money can make the sun extinguish the flames. In addition to money, gods and horses are all floating clouds. Ha ha...... You know! ”

Zhicheng sighed dissatisfiedly and said, "Money, money!" Now they are all out of the money. ”

Li Youguang said playfully: "You have it, don't complain." A weak reminder to you, be careful of being checked by the water meter. Ha ha...... Hmph, the second list of the city's key students is beautiful enough! Isn't it just to pay an extra thousand and eight hundred? But you're also a silver list! I took the iron list of the general high school, that is, the fourth list, and I didn't even catch a bronze list, and what was even more annoying was to ask Lao Tzu to pay 5,200 yuan. ”

"What! 5200 yuan, so old! Who can get up with this? Zhicheng looked surprised.

"Toto relationship, go to the door! Now this is exciting! Who has allowed us to live in an age where everything is sought out? Asking for gifts and going through the backdoor trust relationship is the main theme of contemporary China. Elementary school students understand the truth. Fortunately, my second brother-in-law's third brother-in-law's brother-in-law's brother-in-law's fourth uncle's father-in-law's third daughter teaches Chinese at this high school. Damn, the master who can't hit the tail with eight poles, and I don't know if I can help, do a little bit, it's really not okay for Lao Tzu to repeat another year. By the way, do you know Liu Yuyan in our class? She's unlucky, usually her academic performance is so good, but this time she played abnormally and fell into the slaughtering list, which is the fifth list, and the number of B is ......" He pinched five fingers together and shook them in front of Zhicheng and said, "seven thousand...... Hmph, let's do it. ”

"Hmph, if you have the ability to a million!" Zhicheng said angrily: "Just know that you want to, who of our crops can get up!" ”

"Cut! You can't it, that's it! Hmph, in other words, you non-negotiable! Buddy advises you to find acquaintances, pull a relationship, maybe save a little. ”

While the two were talking, another old classmate came over and said with a smile: "Youguang Zhicheng, what are you two talking about?" It's so energetic. This is Li Youguang's tablemate Wang Dayong.

"Hehe, I didn't say anything, why did your uncle your aunt in bed! Haha......" Li Youguang sneered and jumped into the crowd after speaking, and Wang Dayong chased after him while scolding.
