"After I checked the score, I went to the county education commission, I wonder if the score is wrong, you say it's just a few points, and it will delay people for a lifetime, is this okay? You know what the people in the Education Committee say, don't say that you are a few points behind, 1 point or 0.5 points in the college entrance examination can get rid of a lot of people. The difference of one point is hundreds of thousands of people, the score line is crossed, and the difference of 1 point is not online. They asked me to leave my name and admission number, and they would report it for inquiries and say that it was rare to read the wrong scores. At this time, the most query is to see if there is any error in the total score after the summary of the individual scores. They asked me to come back and wait for the notification. My father said with a little hope in frustration.

At this time, Li Xiao realized why it took his father a day to check the score.

"It's already like this, what else is there to check, hundreds of thousands of people in the college entrance examination, if everyone thinks that their scores are wrong, wouldn't the college entrance examination be graded again." Li Xiao said with unrealistic thoughts in the face of his father.

"Let's try."

"Try it, huh." Li Xiao chuckled noncommittally at his father's remedy afterwards.

"If you were really good for me, you should have done some work beforehand, instead of doing such futile things now."

"Didn't you do much beforehand? Did your mom pay more for you? In the past few years of high school to repetition, have you done a little housework? You haven't even washed your own clothes, and your mother washes the bowls for eating. Who pays you the annual repetition fee and living allowance? Do you know how much money your family borrowed for you to repeat? Father began to count.

"What's the amount of money you spend? Do you know what other people's parents do? Others give their children special skills, sports, art, singing, broadcasting, etc., and they can be admitted with extra points for their specialties. Or transfer the child's household registration to the poverty-stricken mountainous area to "New Zealand", Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningbo, and the admission can be reduced points. You just know how to do something dead. This time, my household registration was transferred to the name of Grandma Yancheng in advance, and I was admitted. You came out of Xinjiang, and there are so many colleagues and leaders there, and many other people are thinking of ways to transfer their children's household registration with relatives and friends, and you can have the conditions and convenient to get your children's household registration, but you don't think about it at all.

When I was in junior high school, my uncle contacted No. 1 Middle School, and as long as you paid a transfer fee of 60 yuan, you could go in, but you didn't want to, saying that what gold is can shine anywhere. Do you know your daughter? She is gold, but she is not shining everywhere, she is gold in the boiler, and she is scrap iron in the coal. She needs the support of the platform and the environment, you know? She has been wandering since she was a child, just because of your so-called breadwinner, she has been wandering and learning, can she improve? She didn't turn into a problem girl today, and you should be grateful for the good things she did in your previous life.

Forget it, I can't help a father like you, whoever tells me to die. Li Xiao said a lot of things, venting all his long-standing dissatisfaction with his father.

"You, you, you" The father was forced by Li Xiao to start beating his chest, "You're angry with me." I, I, I really raised you for nothing. You are also 18 years old, an adult, legally speaking, my obligations have been fulfilled, and you can go on your own way. The father lowered his head and waved his hand weakly at Li Xiao.

Let's go. Li Xiao thought in his heart.

Early the next morning, Li Xiao left a note on the table, and went out with his bag on his back.

When he went out, Li Xiao hesitated, where to go?

Uncle's house, impossible. My uncle knew that she would be ridiculed again.

Fellow scholars, it can't be. My classmates are basically from the countryside, and I haven't been to it and can't find it.

Auntie's house, impossible. She hasn't been there since the incident of bathing in the river.

Looking around, she turned out to have nowhere to go. Who will take in this wandering heart and wandering soul?

A man walks aimlessly with a bag on his back.

"Li laughs," someone shouted.

Li Xiao looked up and saw a woman with curly hair, high heels, and a pink dress smiling at her.

"You are?" All of a sudden, Li Xiao didn't figure out who it was.

"Li Dan." The woman smiled.

"Li Dan." Li Xiao silently recited this name in his heart.

"In high school, I sat in front of you. Remember? ”

"Oh." Li Xiao finally remembered.

Li Dan and Jiang Suzhen were two treasures in the hands of the homeroom teacher when they were in high school, and they often gave her two small classes after class, hoping that they would be admitted to university in the new year. For a school with an almost zero progression rate, this is a slim hope. Li Jiang's ending is naturally off the list. Later, I heard that Jiang went to study for a self-examination undergraduate. Li returned to his hometown.

"Where are you now?" Li Xiao remembers going to her house in high school, a very poor mountain village.

"I'm married now. My husband's family opened a shop in the town and started a small business. ”

"It feels like you've changed so much."

"I gave birth to a daughter last year."

"No wonder it's plump."

"What about you? How did you do this year? ”

"No play. I want to go out for a walk, but I don't know where to go. ”

"I have a friend who works as a supervisor in a factory in Guangdong, working on watches, and I heard that he has been recruiting. If you want to go, I can introduce you. ”

"What place? What's your friend's name? ”

"I'll write to you later, he'll be back in September, and you can come with him."

"Okay, thank you."

The two parties left their mailing addresses and broke up.

Li Xiao continued to walk forward alone. Before I knew it, I was walking to the river. She remembered that her grandmother's house and her own house were by the Xiangjiang River, and she would definitely be able to walk to her grandmother's house along the Xiangjiang River.

While walking, I thought of Li Dan, who had the best grades in the class that year, but I didn't expect that I would get married as soon as I graduated from high school and have children. I remember that at that time, she wanted to be admitted to the university, her ideals were very plump, the reality was very skinny, and when she left the school, her ideals and beliefs were all gone. Let herself live the life in front of her and live well is the life she wants most.

I don't know how Jiang Xiao is, I went to Guangdong to work last year, and there has been no news of her, and I don't know how it is now.

At this time last year, Li Xiao was playing happily at his aunt's house, and at this time this year, Li Xiao was depressed and wandering on the road.

As he walked, he was stopped by a rice field in front of him, and the seedlings bent over, waiting for the farmer's uncle to harvest and go home.

The road was blocked, and Li Xiao had to turn back to the main road.

The winding road has no end in sight, just like Li Xiao's road ahead, and he doesn't know where to return.

It was close to noon and the water had been drunk. Several buses running sparsely on the road gasped for breath because of the heat, releasing stinky farts and smoking Li Xiao. The small trees on the side of the road could not provide shade, let alone the wind, and the shadows on the ground shrank to the soles of their feet.

Li Xiao insisted on moving forward like this. Occasionally, the bus stopped and asked her if she could go, and she smiled and shook her head and continued on her way.

At this time, suddenly a car stopped beside her. Down came a middle-aged man in a light-colored short-sleeved shirt with a pair of glasses, he walked to the back and opened the door, pulling out a chubby boy. The middle-aged man pulled the boy around the back of the car and helped the boy take off his pants, and the boy stood motionless, allowing the man to move. There seemed to be a woman and a child talking in the car.

"Aren't you going down?" The man said to the car.

"Did you pee?" The man asked. The boy did not respond. The boy lifted his pants.

Suddenly, the boy burst into tears and ran forward along the road.

The front door on the right side of the car opened, and an elderly woman came down to check it out.

Then, the right rear door of the car opened, and a woman in a gray short-sleeved shirt said to the elderly woman, "Help me watch the children in the car, I'll go and see them."

The woman ran towards the man and boy running in front. The boy couldn't resist the man, and at this time he sat on the ground and cried and shouted, "I want to go home, I want to go home." ”
