As a party to Li Xiao, he has to face the current teacher, and also consider whether he can pass the exam when he goes back. If you can get in, you can add glory if you go; If you can't get in, you have to laugh at both sides. Li Xiao was wandering in his heart, not knowing how to choose.

"I'll think about it." Li Xiao said to his uncle.

Uncle explained a few words and left in a hurry.

Looking at a few small green apples in the plastic bag, Li Xiao smiled to himself. I remember that every year when my father took them to my uncle's house, they would buy big and red red Fuji, which was small and ugly, and they would not take it out and give it away.

She knew that her uncle had always been harsh, except for his own pair of children. It's a rare thing to be able to bring her apples this time. I remember that since the summer vacation of the third grade of elementary school, she was sent by her parents to her uncle's house to play with her uncle's two children and grew up. The uncle always praised his children, and smiled faintly at Li Xiao. After a long time, I naturally got used to it.

Jiang Xiao is still so willful and lively.

On the weekend, Li Xiao and Wang Liping went to Wang Liping's classmate to play. Wang Liping's classmate dropped out of junior high school and now works as a waiter in a hotel. There are dozens of beds large and small. Followed by a boy in a tepid relationship.

"It's still freedom to participate in work, it's like we gnaw books all day without any freedom." Wang Liping said.

"What's the point of being a waiter, you are an iron rice bowl if you are admitted to college." Wang's classmate said.

"It's hard. So many ...... every year For the exam, fresh graduates can take a few exams. Our class is the best class in the whole grade, and I don't know how many I can attend. Seeing Li Xiao beside her, Wang Liping paused. She couldn't bear to poke Li Xiao's scar. knew that Li Xiao minded "repeating", so when the words came to his lips, he called back again.

Li Xiao looked at Wang Liping gratefully.

"Rereading" pierced her heart like a thorn. It made her too heavy to lift her head. The casual jokes of her classmates will touch her sensitive points, and for a long time she can only heal and comfort herself with a heavy shell on her back. At the beginning, she was able to maintain the top few in the class, but after the new class entered the review stage, the grades of the fresh graduates increased significantly, and she couldn't avoid it and was surpassed by many classmates.

Maybe it doesn't matter in the repeat class, everyone has the same identity and learns synchronously, but in the fresh class, she is constantly reminded that she is an outlier and a repeater. This difference is not only a difference in the number of sessions, but also a difference in age. The classmates in the repeat class are not much different in age from each other, and the youngest in their class is only 16 years old, but she is almost 20 years old, according to the 5-year-old generation gap, 16-year-old can call her aunt. Although she is only one year older than the oldest graduate, she still feels like an outlier, an older repeater aunt.

I remember that when I was filling in the college entrance examination information, the teacher asked her if she was 20 years old, she didn't respond, she left with her sleeves, Li Xiao and her classmates were puzzled. Today, when she was in the situation of that classmate, she realized the self-esteem frustration that the classmate had when asked about his age.

After playing for a long time, it was very late, so Li Xiao and Wang Liping stayed in the hotel. Wang Liping's classmates kept receiving guests until 2 a.m. At this time, Li Xiao and Wang Liping had already slept for a while.

"It's not easy for you." Wang Liping sighed.

"Well, every day." Wang Liping said tiredly. "Study hard to be successful, don't be like me."

"Hmm" sounded, and both of them fell asleep.

Li Xiao listened to their conversation and slowly fell asleep.

When Li Xiao and Wang Liping left the next morning, Wang Liping's classmates had not yet gotten up.

Back to school, it was an intense revision phase.

Each student's desk is full of books and many study materials, and it seems that the more books they have, the more they learn, the better their grades, and the more they can be admitted to university.

The semester is over quickly. After the final exam, Li Xiao returned home with simple luggage.

I didn't see him for half a semester, and my younger brother grew taller again, like a bean sprout. Mom worked in the cafeteria and hasn't come back yet. Daddy too. I went back to my small room, threw my bag away, and lay down on the bed. After a semester, Li Xiao was relaxed.

Not long after lying in bed, I heard someone talking below.

"Laughing back?" Father's voice.

"Hmm." Mother replied.

"How about the final exam? Did you ask. The father asked the mother.

"Not yet. As soon as she returned, she locked herself in her room. ”

"Tell her to come down and ask."

"We'll eat later. I'll ask later. ”

Then there was no sound down there.

I was woken up, and I couldn't lie down. Li Xiao simply got up.

Go downstairs to the kitchen. Father and mother are busy. I haven't seen him for a semester, and my father is getting a little older. There are more gray hairs on the temples. Mother is still the same.

"Up?" Mother asked when she saw Li Xiao coming in.

"Hmm."

"How did you do on the test this time?" That's what my father said.

"So-so." Li Xiao replied.

"Your uncle went to look for you?"

"Hmm."

"How did you think about what you told you?"

"I don't want to come back." Li Xiao replied.

"Don't want to come back? Do you know how much effort your uncle went into trying to get you back? ”

"Why didn't he get me in the first place?"

"Didn't you have a chance at that time?"

"No chance. Clearly I just don't want to help. I'll come back now, how do you tell me to face Duan Bin, as well as the teachers and classmates over there. ”

"These are not things that you think about, what you should think about is how to get into college?"

"I'm not sure."

"Not sure?" Li Qiang looked at Li Xiao and lost his mind for a moment.

He pinned all his hopes on Li Xiao, he felt that as long as Li Xiao was admitted to university, he would be able to glorify his ancestors, and he would be able to raise his eyebrows in the unit.

In this era of fighting for children, he himself has no hope, but he wants to fight for his daughter and son. One failure was enough, and he couldn't let his daughter fail again.

"Can you take care of yourself when you're taking exams outside? Like this year's college entrance examination, are you sick for the exam? Li Qiang asked.

Li Xiao was silent.

Last time in the college entrance examination, after the first day of the exam, she thought that the exam was very poor, and after dinner in the afternoon, she walked a long, long way with her classmates. Maybe because of the hot weather, she suffered from heat stroke, and she didn't take medicine, but just smeared the top of her head, forehead, philtrum, and neck with wind oil essence. Relieved slightly. But the second day was noticeably less energetic than the first. It affected the performance of the exam, and the results can be imagined.

History won't repeat itself, she thought to herself.

In Qingsong County in the past six months, she has not been sick. The food can't keep up, the body lacks exercise, the pressure in my heart is huge, and the person has lost a lot of weight. But she survived. To ensure that she doesn't get sick again during the college entrance examination, she feels that she can't do it. Her father's words hit her in the spot.

This year should be better. Li Xiao thought to himself.

"Liu Qiangjun has made great progress in the past six months. Your uncle said that his English had improved by a few points. I will definitely be able to get into it next year. You have to learn more from others. ”

"Oh."

Liu Qiangjun, Li Xiao muttered in his heart. The name has been hidden in my heart for many years.
