Kong Ming lanterns, wishing walls, marshmallows, balloons, hugs, best friends, favorite people. And so it came in 2013.

Life in the ivory tower flies by, we go to class, get out of class, eat, sleep, and study on our own every day.

It sounds monotonous, but it doesn't feel boring at all, probably because there has always been such a group of cute and interesting people around.

The approachable aunt in the commissary has added another child, a fleshy baby boy, and we can't help but tease him every time we go shopping.

The aunt in the cafeteria, who was always shaking, resigned, and it was said that her daughter had come out and took her to the big city to enjoy life.

There is also the uncle in the security department, who still holds his hands behind his back seriously every day, frowning at the school gate and staring at the suspicious characters who enter the school.

The flowers of the school are blooming more and more brilliantly, and every time I can't help but want to pick two, I always think of the classmate next door who was picked and carried to the rostrum last time and was criticized.

Time has been moving forward, never looking back, everything is changing, the only thing that remains the same is that the results of our class are always at the end of the three top classes, especially mathematics, which is also the problem that Lao Zhang has always been most worried about.

In the first mock exam of the first semester, everyone's grades were a mess.

"Students, you are now in the second half of your sophomore year of high school!" Lao Zhang stood straight under the two stages, staring at us, and his tone was solemn, "You say, isn't it nice to be at the bottom?" Can you not be the last one even once? ”

If it were for Lao Zhang to train us like this, we might still have a hippie smile, but this time, no one could laugh.

At this moment, the old man suddenly walked in, and when he saw the old man, Lao Zhang said hello respectfully.

The old man looked at us all with dejected appearances, like calf guards, and said to Lao Zhang: "This group of children... Actually, they don't feel good either, so let me say a few words to them. ”

After seeing Lao Zhang's agreement, the old man walked up to the stage with a smile: "I came to report one thing to you this time, that is... After the half-term exam, I can't continue to accompany everyone! ”

"What?"

"Where are you going, old man?!"

There was an uproar below, everyone respected and loved the old man, and no one did not like him, and suddenly hearing such news was undoubtedly like a bolt from the blue.

"Old man, you won't accompany us to graduate!"

"We don't want other teachers! I want you! ”

Lao Zhang coughed, and everyone immediately stopped talking.

The old man was also reluctant in his eyes, and he continued: "So, let's make an agreement, this half-term math score can't be at the bottom anymore, okay?" ”

We were all so sad that we didn't know what to say, so we could only say yes in unison.

I watched the old man's complexion getting worse and worse, and I couldn't help but worry when I remembered that some time ago he was always sick and asked for leave, and he didn't tell us what the results were after going to the hospital for examination.

After school, I went straight to the teacher's office, and I wanted to ask the old man about it, but there was no one in his seat.

I asked the teacher next to me, and they said that the old man had gone home.

I was a little disappointed, and was about to leave, when I saw the report card on Lao Zhang's desk.

I'd rather see how bad my class was in math with the rest of the class.

The moment I looked at the report card, I immediately regretted it.

It can't be compared, we're really far from it.

After reading it, when I put the report card back in its original place, I saw a slip pressed under all the books, and I could see that it was a hospital examination report.

I quickly pulled it out.

The moment I saw the report, my whole person seemed to be hit on the head by a sudden thousand pounds of boulders, which made my eyes glaze with gold stars.

I was stunned for a long time before I quickly put the report back in its original place.

I asked the teacher next to me, and she told me that the old man should have retired a long time ago, but he had always wanted to take us to graduation, but the old man's daughter had a baby, and there was no one to take him, so he had to hurry back to take his grandson.

"That's good." The teacher next door said with a smile in his eyes, "After decades of struggle as a teacher, I can finally go back to live my old age." ”

I had a sore nose and couldn't hold back my tears in the office, so I said hello to the teacher and fled the place.

It turned out that everyone didn't know the old man's illness, and it turned out that the real reason why he left was not to bring his grandson at all, it was cancer, cancer!

The old man smiled at us today, as if nothing had happened.

On the report sheet, the vague figures make it hard for me to believe that this is true, but I know that alpha-fetoprotein is a serum marker of clinical primary liver cancer, and the old man's test results are the worst one.

Thinking of what the old man had done to us, tears welled up in my eyes.

When I cried so much that I appeared in the cafeteria, Lin Wanwan immediately dropped his chopsticks, and his tone was a little eager: "What's wrong with the baby?" Which grandson bullied you, you tell me, I'm going to slaughter him! ”

Looking at Lin Wanwan's angry face, I quickly grabbed her, and my voice was still a little choked: "No, no one bullied me." ”

Xu Yu frowned slightly, stood up and walked to my side, his voice a little worried: "What happened?" ”

I pursed my lips, nodded, and said the old man in fits and starts.

Everyone fell silent after hearing this.

This news is difficult for everyone to accept, for death, for cancer, it seems that we are all far away from that time.

"Really, is there no way?" Lin Wanwan's eyes were red, she rarely looked like this.

I shook my head: "I looked at that checklist, it's late. ”

In fact, the saddest thing for us is that the old man has been thinking about us, he checked it out before, and originally wanted to support us to graduate, but now it's impossible...

"Let's do something for the old man at the end." Hulai, who had not spoken, said suddenly.

Lin Wanwan nodded: "However, what do we have to do to make him happy." ”

"Grades."

Hulai and Xu Xu spoke in unison.

Yes, I think, there is nothing more gratifying to Lao Zhang than his results.

"In this half-term exam, we must take the first place." Hulai said.

Lin Wanwan and I glanced at each other, in fact, it was quite difficult to get the first place in our class, and I was a little discouraged: "We... May I? ”

Xu Promise patted me lightly on the head: "It may not work on a few of us, but if the whole class works together, it can be done." ”

I nodded vigorously and sped up as I ate: "Then let's finish eating quickly, and then go back and do a few more math problems!" ”

In the dormitory, after everyone learned about the old man, the atmosphere was also very low.

Liu Meiran rarely has this kind of sad time: "The old man is such a good person, why can't a good person be safe?" ”

"We're at the bottom of math every time, I'm so sorry for him." Tian Xiaorou said softly.

"So, this half-term, we must, we must, we must take the first place."
