When Tang's mother and the conductor got on the bus one after the other, Tang Yao looked at her watch, at eight o'clock, there were 29 minutes left before the reporting time. Except for the 10 minutes it took to get off the bus to find the school and enter the school to find a classroom, the real remaining time was only 19 minutes, and it was still a quarter of an hour as the conductor said, Tang Yao felt a little relieved.

Although Tang Yao is a character who never takes a step until the last moment, and the school activities are always pinched, he is rarely late. Only junior high school reported that he would be late. Tang Yao remembered that the weather was also like this on the day of junior high school, the sky was blue like a blue sea inhabited by mermaids, and there were white clouds dotted in the boundlessness. Tang Yao went out quite early that day, but in order to wait for Mu Sisi, who was lying in bed, the two of them were both late for about ten minutes, and they even ran to the bulletin board at the school gate to find which class their names were in.

Mu Sisi looked quite depressed after reading the class placement announcement. Tang Yao always thought that it was because she was late, but later in retrospect, it suddenly dawned that Mu Sisi was looking for her and Jinli's names from the beginning, and when she found that she was not in the same class after reading the list of Jinli's class, she was not in the mood to see which class she was in. Tang Yao saw her name and Mu Sisi's together, and instantly excitedly pulled Mu Sisi's body and told her that they would have a companion in the next three years.

Gionee is a music specialty, Mousse Sisi and Gionee were destined to be separated from the beginning, Tang Yao didn't believe that Mousse, who paid so much attention to Gionee, would not know this, so what was Mousse lucky about?

Tang Yao patted his head, let some things pass. Thinking about it, although today is the same blue and boundless sky as three years ago, Tang Yao thinks that he is unlucky enough, and he should not be late for the two important occasions in his life! But Tang Yao just had an ominous premonition, obviously the car after that drove very fast, and the next platform did not stay as long as it stayed in the town, and the car also arrived at the so-called flour mill as scheduled, but Tang Yao just felt that he was far away from Linshui at noon.

Tang Yao's intuition was right.

This flour mill is not another flour mill.

Linshui Middle School is in the center of the town, and although Tang Yao gets off belongs to the category of Linshui Town, it is in the outermost part. Considering the flow of people and efficiency, the "contracted cars" are soliciting customers on the main road, and will not go deep into the town at all.

When Tang's mother went to ask the flour mill doorman where Linshui Middle School was, the doorman shook his face in confusion.

Tang's mother began to panic, and hurriedly found an older grandmother and asked where Linshui Middle School is?

Grandma is a local, pointed to a road, and said that there is a flour mill all the way to the end, and there is a bridge along the flour mill, and you can see the middle school after crossing the bridge and walking a little further.

Tang's mother quietly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, now there are only ten minutes left, according to Grandma's words, Tang Yao's mother and daughter should hurry up, Tang's mother thinks that they can rush to Linshui Middle School at half past eight o'clock.

The weather at the beginning of August was the hottest time, fortunately, it was still early in the morning, and the sun was not the strongest, but the hot and stuffy heat still made Tang Yao wet the new undershirt on her back.

The road that Grandma said has been walking is very long, and there is a turn in the middle, two intersections. Mother Tang asked two more pedestrians in a row, and when Mother Tang and Tang Yao were standing in front of the correct flour mill with their dry mouths, it was already eight fifty.

There's a kind of tardiness called "I'm late", so I don't have to worry about whether to be five minutes late.

Tang's mother stopped and bought a bottle of mineral water for herself and Tang Yao at the commissary at the entrance of the flour mill.

"Take a sip and go, we're already late anyway." Tang's mother changed her impatient temperament.

Tang Yao thought to herself, this is the realistic version of "broken jars and broken falls".

Tang Yao's anxious mood suddenly broke down, and he also drank the water calmly.

After a period of rest, Tang's mother gave the order: the team gathered and set off.
