The weather is warm day by day, and in the blink of an eye, it is June, and the teacher begins to organize students to fill in the college entrance examination volunteers.

Many of the students in the class went home to ask their parents for their opinions, and volunteered to change them again and again. Zhong Shan didn't go home, he felt like a full-fledged bird, about to fly to the vast sky, he wanted to fly high and far, and he flew away and never came back. He filled in his first choice "Jiangcheng University" and his major "Journalism", and only then did he fill in several other schools indiscriminately under the repeated suggestions of his teachers, but what he liked the most was his first choice. Zhong Shan felt that the distant Jiangcheng was his dream hometown, and studying journalism and becoming a reporter in the future would give him more opportunities to find out where he came from.

Lin Meihui also filled in a few schools casually, she herself didn't have any hope, she just did it for her parents. Privately, she has accepted the recruitment of a large metallurgical construction state-owned enterprise art troupe, and decided to report to the troupe after graduating from high school.

The relationship between Zhongshan and Lin Meihui is also like the weather at the turn of spring and summer, hot every day, and on the eve of the college entrance examination, the two no longer shy away from teachers and classmates, and they are inseparable like glue. During this period, of course, it was Lin Meihui who played a leading role, after school, eating, and going to the playground to run during the evening self-study break, it was Lin Meihui who shouted Zhong Shan, waiting for Zhong Shan, Zhong Shan was just led away, of course, this is also what he is extremely willing from the bottom of his heart, but he is not as bold and enthusiastic as her.

Zhong Shan, who was in love for the first time, felt that the sun was fresh every day, and even the air exuded sweetness and fragrance. Every day is a beautiful day, and even the intense college entrance examination review like devil training has become pleasant and joyful.

Zhong Shan hasn't been home for almost a month. The school cafeteria has developed a special recipe for the preparation of candidates, and the nutrition and taste are no problem. In the summer, the clothes are thin, so you can completely wash them yourself, and you don't have to go home to change them.

One day after lunch, he and Lin Meihui walked out of the school gate side by side, and Lin Meihui asked him to accompany him to the commissary at the school gate to buy biscuits and malt milk essence for supper in the evening. After walking out of the school gate, Lin Meihui generously took Zhong Shan's arm, Zhong Shan was a little shy, but still let her carry it.

From a distance, Zhong Shan saw his mother hurrying towards the school with a flower cloth bag, and hurriedly pulled out his arm that was being held tightly by his girlfriend. But it was too late, and he was sure that his mother's eyes had fallen on them, and he had noticed their small movements, so he had to stop and wait.

When the mother approached, she didn't look at Zhong Shan first, but looked up and down at the beautiful girl in front of her with her eyes, with a strange expression. Zhong Shan said, "This is my classmate Lin Meihui", and then turned to Meihui and said, "This is my mother". Meihui was warm and generous, and shouted "Auntie" crisply, and the voice melted into the warm summer breeze as soon as it came out.

The mother looked a little flustered, and hurriedly handed the cloth bag containing food in her hand to her son, and said, "Your father asked me to come and see you, and your father said that the college entrance examination has begun to fill in the volunteers, let me ask you what school and what major you applied for." ”

Zhong Shan said with some hesitation: "I applied for Jiangcheng University, Chinese Department, major in journalism. ”

The mother was stunned for a moment and said, "Jiang Cheng? It's so far from home, it's going to take a train for days, right? ”

Zhong Shan said: "It's only about 30 hours by train, which is not too far, and the classmates in the class also report to Sichuan and Guangdong." ”

The mother was silent, and she felt that her son, who needed to look up to see his face, became a little strange.

After standing for a while, her mother said, "I'll go back if it's okay", and Mie hurriedly said "Goodbye, Auntie", and her mother answered, and walked straight to the way she came without looking back.
