On Friday June 7th, 2003, the alarm bell rang at 6:00 a.m. Bell... Ling, Lin Wei got up in a hurry, made breakfast in the kitchen, steamed a few meatloaf soup and self-made old noodle steamed buns, put them on the dining table, and pushed Ping'er's room open, "Ping'er, it's time to get up, it's 6:40 in the morning, breakfast is ready, go wash up, eat breakfast, Mom has taken leave today and sent you to the college entrance examination." ”

Grandma also got up early, knowing that Ping's grandson took the college entrance examination today, saw the breakfast made on the table, and also walked into Ping's grandson's room, and saw her two talking, grandma smiled and also participated in the speech: "Ping's grandson, your mother, got up earlier than grandma, breakfast is also ready, go and do your own thing, grandma sent you to the college entrance examination today, the college entrance examination was resumed in 1977, I and your grandfather sent your mother to the college entrance examination, and you won the exam, today I and your mother sent you to the college entrance examination, accept the selection of the motherland, grandma believes in the strength of Ping's grandson." ”

"Yes, grandma, don't worry, Grandma Ping will not embarrass your old man, and will definitely win glory and live up to the expectations of his mother, grandma, and grandpa." Ping'er smiled at her grandmother very confidently and hurriedly went about her own business.

Grandma, mother, and grandchildren finished breakfast, not in a hurry, and the three generations happily greeted the morning sun and walked on the road to the college entrance examination.

Ping's grandson stepped into the gate of the first examination room of the High School Affiliated to Nanjiang Normal University, smiled and waved confidently to her grandmother and mother, and turned around and walked into the college entrance examination building.

In the summer of June, the heat hit people, outside the examination room, there were crowds, the parents of the candidates all held mineral water bottles, held towels in their hands, drank water to wipe their sweat, and were willing to suffer, waiting for the candidates to come out of the examination room, Lin Wei saw that her mother was also suffering, and said distressedly: "Mom, the weather is too hot, you can't stand it, you call home, I am waiting for Ping'er here." ”

Lin Wei's mother, both in her sixties, smiled and said: "My body can afford to eat, don't worry, wait for Ping's grandchildren to go home together after the exam, my mother and daughter will give Ping's grandson Lewei, cheer, more than 20 years ago, my mother sent you to take the university entrance examination, today, I want to send Ping's grandson to the university, it will definitely bring good luck and be admitted to the ideal university." ”

"Mom, Ping'er bothered you again, see you're sweaty, wipe off the sweat, drink saliva, let's wait under the shade of the tree." Lin Wei helped her mother walk over.

Lin Wei's mother didn't want to accept old age, so she gently patted Lin Wei's hand, full of energy, standing under the shade of a tree and waiting, staring at the gate of the examination room......

A month after the college entrance examination, on this Sunday, at more than ten o'clock in the morning, a middle-aged male postman rang the doorbell in the yard and shouted to the house with a smile: "Congratulations!" Congratulations! Great joy, come out and get the university admission letter. ”

Lin Wei opened the door and came out, holding a pack of Chinese cigarettes in his hand, happily took the red university admission letter from the postman's hand, and said repeatedly: "Thank you, master!" On a hot day, send the admission letter, hard work, please smoke a cigarette. ”

"Hehe, smoke a cigarette, no, such a big event, I want to smoke a pack of cigarettes." The postman half-jokingly looked at Lin Wei.

"Okay, a pack of Chinese cigarettes for you, thank you, master." Lin Wei happily stuffed a pack of Chinese cigarettes into the postman's hand.

The postman happily took the cigarette, "Congratulations! Congratulate! Being admitted to a national key university, Shanghai Jiaotong University, is your girl, it's really not easy. ”

"Well, my daughter, Master Xie! Good bye! Lin Wei happily waved to the postman and turned to enter the house.

Lin Wei was opening the door of the living room, Ping hurriedly came out, and said excitedly: "Mom, the university admission letter has been sent, show me." Ping'er held the admission letter in her hand, looking left and right, very excited.

Grandpa and grandma looked at the university admission notice in Ping's grandson's hand, smiling, and grandpa Lin Xiwen said repeatedly: "Okay! Good! Congratulate! Congratulate! Ping's grandson is smart, grandpa is happy, and the glory of the ancestor is worth celebrating, today at noon, the whole family celebrates and drinks happy wine. ”

Grandma happily said to Lin Wei: "You can call now and inform your sister, brother-in-law, and Dong Dong to come over and go to Nanjiang Distant Seafood City to celebrate together!" Grandpa has a treat today. ”

"Okay, grandpa has a banquet for everyone today, grandma is the Minister of Finance, grandma pays, ha... Ha..."Lin Xiwen especially likes Ping's grandson, grew up with his grandmother and grandfather, obedient, sensible and well-behaved, and beautiful, her room walls are plastered with three good student awards, from primary school to high school, every year as a good student, every year Ping's grandson takes the certificate home, Lin Xiwen asked Ping's grandson to paste the award certificate on the wall, admitted to college, is expected by the family, three years old to see the big, seven years old to see adulthood, Ping grandson is an excellent seedling.

The whole family came to Nanjiang Yuanfang Seafood City, and they all sat down, Lin Xiwen's face was full of joy, and he suddenly remembered someone in his heart, "Lin Wei, have you notified Zhang Guolin?" ”

"Dad, forget it, no need to notify, he is very busy, he hasn't seen him for nearly a year, Ping'er has this dad, not this dad, he doesn't pay anything, let him go." In fact, Lin Wei has long had this plan in her heart, waiting for her daughter to be admitted to college and becoming an adult, and eliminate all factors, and dissolve the honorary marriage with him.

Lin Wei's parents know very well in their hearts that their daughter's marriage has no sweetness, only bitterness, and she spends all her energy on cultivating her daughter, and it is not surprising that she said this.

Lin Wei's mother understood her daughter, and when she looked at her daughter's face, she was still full of joy, she said with a smile: "Lin Wei is right, you don't need to notify Zhang Guolin, let him be busy with his own affairs, and celebrate with our family!" Celebrate! ”

All the wine and food are on the table, grandpa is very atmospheric today, ordered a few seafood, he saw that everyone's cup was full of wine, he smiled and toasted and said: "I propose everyone to raise a glass to celebrate Ping's grandson to be admitted to a national key university, so many years, Ping's grandson is diligent and studious, only today's fruits, her surname is Lin, she has won glory for our Lin family, and she is also a model for Dongdong to learn, Lin Wei also paid a lot of energy for her daughter, and Lin Hong and He Yiyi care for Ping'er, so that she can grow up healthily, we are elders, very happy, Cheers to today's big event! ”

Clinking glasses pleasantly, touching out the wonderful symphony of life, the Lin family teaches their children well, diligence and studious is the motto of the Lin family, the three generations of the Lin family, generation after generation, everyone smiles, and celebrates Ping's grandson's admission to a key university.

Ping'er is also a good child who knows how to repay her kindness, she smiled and raised her glass and said: "Grandpa, grandma, I love Ping's grandson the most, Ping's grandson respects the second elder with a cup, and has paid a lot for me, from primary school to junior high school, grandma, grandpa and grandpa take turns to pick me up every day, in the wind and rain, frost and snow, hot summer, day after day, year after year, I get too much love, Ping'er respects you two elders, and wishes grandma and grandpa a long and healthy life!" Happy! ”

Grandma and grandpa clinked glasses happily, and grandma smiled and said: "My grandson Ping, you are really sensible, when you speak, you have a level, not worse than your grandfather, good look!" Cheers! ”

Ping'er drank a small glass of red wine, poured a small glass by herself, smiled, raised her glass, and said to her uncle, mother-in-law, and Dongdong: "Ping'er, very happy, in the three years of high school, I have been by my mother's side, my uncle, and Dongdong, and I have received a lot of help in eating, clothing, housing, and transportation, I feel happy and happy, and I have a sense of superiority, and I also salute you, and I wish you health, happiness, and happiness!" Thank you! Let you suffer. ”

"Hi, a family, how to say two words, Ping'er, we are elders, we should care about your growth, it is our responsibility as elders, you are very competitive, your mother and I are very happy, we are proud to have a good child like you, no need to say thank you! We toast you and congratulate you on your wishes! Get into your dream university and major! After He Yiyi finished speaking, the family clinked glasses with each other and drank them up excitedly.

Ping'er raised her glass reasonably, and said to her mother: "Mom, Ping'er, respect you, these 17 years, you have worked hard to raise me, and have given me a lot of care, Ping'er thought in her heart, you must win glory on her mother's face, and live up to her mother's expectations, although, I have an honorary father, but he has never cared about me, and I have never seen my father care about my mother, I am also used to it, the days without my father, I hate him, I grew up, I will think about these common sense, Mom, you don't have to worry about me, I went to college, not by my mother's side, Mother should take care of her body, don't worry about Ping'er often, Ping'er, please rest assured that good children are ambitious, please take care! Ping'er raised her glass and touched her mother's cup, drank the wine in her own cup, it was really like the heroic style of the world, her eyes flashed with tears, whether it was gratitude, happiness, happiness, or hate, no one could tell, but only her mother understood.

Lin Wei understands her daughter very well, she silently hugged her daughter, sighed deeply, and controlled her emotions, her daughter is sensible, love and hate are clear, and it is not yet time to decrypt it, there will always be such a day, and she should let her daughter know the truth of the relationship.

Lin Hong saw her sister hugging her daughter, at this time, her mood was indescribable, it was a happy event, but with a little bitterness, it was really difficult for her sister Lin Wei, for more than 20 years, Lin Wei lived alone, carrying heavy emotions, thinking about the person she loved day and night, without a trace, Wan Yunhai never appeared, buried all the love deep in her heart, and worked hard to cultivate her lovely daughter to grow up.

Dong Dong saw tears flowing out of his mother's eyes, and said curiously, "Mom, what's the matter?" Sister Ping's admission to university is a great joy, why do you cry? ”

"Silly child, my mother is happy and excited, crying tears, you respect your sister Ping, learn from her, you will also take the college entrance examination next year, work hard." Lin Hong concealed her inner emotions, after all, sisters are connected.

Dong Dong nodded happily, raised his glass to Sister Ping and said: "Sister, I respect you, I want to learn from you, I must be admitted to Shanghai Jiaotong University, I want to go to the same university with my sister, junior high school and high school, our sister and brother study in the same middle school, do you believe it?" ”

"Good! I believe that my younger brother will definitely be admitted to Shanghai Jiaotong University, possibly Peking University and Tsinghua University, I congratulate you in advance, cheers! Sister Ping excitedly clinked glasses with Dong Dong.

"Peking University, Tsinghua University, I don't dare to think that it is the cradle of the top students in the college entrance examination, Sister Ping lifts her younger brother, Shanghai Jiaotong University, I still have to work hard, I just want to study in the same university as my sister." Dong Dong stretched his tongue and made a strange image.

Dong Dong's funny actions caused a large family to laugh, grandma and grandpa laughed even more, and their hearts bloomed, this sister and brother, innocent and cute, really funny, everyone ended the wedding banquet in a laugh.

At 6 o'clock in the morning of September 2, the golden sun climbed into the sky, waiting for the beginning of the day, and my grandfather arranged for his car driver, Hu Debiao, to drive an Austrian commercial van to park at the gate of the yard to send his granddaughter to college.

Early this morning, Lin Wei got up, made breakfast, a table of sumptuous breakfast, his own big meat buns, dumplings, porridge, cold vegetables, etc., to see off his daughter to college, pushed open the door of his daughter's room and said: "Ping'er, go and have breakfast, Master Hu has already arrived, you see what else you need to bring, we will leave on time at eight o'clock." ”

"Well, Mom, I'll go over for breakfast right away, you don't have to worry about me." Ping'er responded to her mother and smiled, in a very good mood.

Lin Wei turned around and saw that her mother was carrying daily necessities, she also had to follow to send them, prepared a lot of clothes and suitcases, lifted the suitcases and put them in the car, Lin Wei hurriedly helped her mother, and said reproachfully: "Mom, you don't have to move, after breakfast, let's move together, this suitcase is very heavy, it's not good to flash your waist, you are so old." ”

"Why, I hate my mother's old age, my mother is seventy or eighty? Don't worry, Ping's granddaughter goes to college, I'm a grandmother, how can I do it if I don't make some effort? You go and greet Master Hu for breakfast, I can move, go and go. Lin Wei's mother was happy and waved her hand.

Seeing that Master Hu also came out with a bag of daily necessities and put it in the car, Lin Wei greeted: "Master Hu, you don't have to move, you will have a hard time on the road, keep your energy up, go for breakfast!" We moved, and there weren't many things. ”

"It's okay, it doesn't take much effort to move something, Director Lin and I just finished breakfast, it's delicious, your dad is happy and praises your good craftsmanship, you go and eat." Master Hu, in his forties, with a good face and a flat head, is of medium height, looks very sturdy, has followed Director Lin to drive a car for more than 20 years, and has a deep feeling, he smiled innocently.

Lin Wei's father came out with the items in both hands, and said with a smile: "Lin Wei, the prepared items have been moved, you and your mother go to breakfast, let Master Hu have a cup of tea, rest, and get ready to go, your mother said last night that she will also go to send Ping's grandson, you go and send it together, don't worry about me, I will cook noodles at home alone and eat, or go to the bureau canteen to eat." ”

Leaving on time at eight o'clock, Lin Wei's father waved off with a smile on his face: "Grandson Ping, take care of yourself when you get to the university, grandpa won't send it, have a smooth journey, and arrive safely." ”

Ping's grandson left her grandfather for the first time, and she was reluctant to leave, her eyes seemed to be a little tearful, with a slight smile on her face, tears of controlling her emotions flowed out, and she waved her hands: "Grandpa, don't worry, you have to take care, we're leaving, goodbye!" ”

Grandpa watched the van gradually disappear, turned around and walked into the yard, excited, and with a complicated mood that is difficult to give up, Ping's grandson grew up by her side, innocent, beautiful and lovely, she often pleases grandpa and grandma, so that the two elders enjoy the joy of family.

Arrived at Shanghai Jiaotong University at 4:16 p.m., at the gate of the campus, I saw a large banner slogan "Warmly welcome the 2003 freshmen to register", the reception staff of the freshmen reception at the gate of the school, all hung on the chest with the staff card, very enthusiastic to receive the new college students from all over the country to register, Lin Pingping and her mother, grandma, Master Hu got off the car and walked over, one of the young male staff, tall, with glasses, smiling, enthusiastically said: "Hello! We are the registration office of the Department of Marketing, which belongs to the Antai College of Economics and Management. ”

Lin Pingping hurriedly took out the red admission letter from her satchel, handed it to the reception staff with a sweet smile, and said, "Hello! I'm here to register, my major is the Department of Marketing, thank you for your reception! ”

The male staff member took the admission notice, did a check-in registration, looked up and said with a smile: "The registration is complete, the admission notice is kept, you follow these two seniors, go to the freshman dormitory, and arrange for you to live on the 4th floor of Building A5, what's the problem?" Please report to the dormitory management staff and they will help solve the problem. ”

The two senior sisters warmly received them, and one of them, who was medium-sized and slightly chubby, politely said to her grandmother: "Grandma, I'll help you carry things." ”

"Well, girl, what's your name? Thank you! If I move, you can lead the way in front, how old are you two? Grandma asked with a smile and followed behind.

The chubby senior sister took the things from her grandmother's hand and replied with a smile: "Grandma, my name is Zheng Shuang, a sophomore in the second half of this year, majoring in marketing, twenty years old, this classmate is the same age and class as me, her name is Liu Qinghua." ”

Liu Qinghua smiled and nodded to her grandmother and her party, she was slender and greeted politely: "Hello grandma!" Hello everyone! Zheng Shuang and I returned to school early to receive the arrival of new students. ”

"Oh, Zheng Shuang, Liu Qinghua, you two are very beautiful and cute, thank you for being so enthusiastic! This is my granddaughter, named Lin Pingping, is your younger sister, please take care of her. "Grandma walked and chatted with a brisk pace, and did not feel tired of the journey.

Passing through the secluded camphor forest on campus, after a while, I arrived at the school building A5, a 6-story building, facing north and south, up to room 506 on the fifth floor, the aunt on duty, opened the door, there are about 30 square meters, bunk beds, a total of 6 beds, a row of wall cabinets, Lin Wei put down the luggage, looked at the room, and politely said to Zheng Shuang and Liu Qinghua: "Thank you for the reception, this accommodation is very good, spacious and bright, you have completed the reception task, please go back!" ”

"Auntie, no thanks, this is what we should do, what is the matter with Mr. Lin? Please look for us, we will go first, and there is a reception task. After Liu Qinghua greeted him, he waved his hand, and turned around and left with Zheng Shuang.

Grandma, even more pioneered, filled a basin of water, wet it with a rag, wiped the lower bunk by the window, and said while wiping: "Grandson Ping, this lower bunk by the window is good, the light is good, let's choose it first, just this bed." ”

Everyone hands, more than an hour, the whole room was cleaned, all the luggage was put away, all the daily necessities and clothes used were placed, the upper and lower floors of the wall cabinet were placed neatly, everything was ready, Lin Wei looked at his watch and said: "Mom, Ping'er, Master Hu is almost complete, now it's 6 minutes past 18 o'clock, let's go to eat, go to the school cafeteria, and learn about the meal." ”

Four people went downstairs and turned left, they arrived at the school cafeteria, the environment was clean and tidy, there were many kinds of food in various colors in each window, anyone could choose to eat, the whole large dining room was bright and tidy, and each diner felt comfortable, the four people each asked for a plate of food, meat and vegetarian matching, Ping'er's appetite increased greatly, a plate of food was eaten clean, and he wiped his mouth excitedly and said: "The catering here is good, delicious, such a large plate, I ate it all at once, haha......"

"You little girl, eat... Eat... It's delicious, but also eat in moderation, don't get fat, let the beauty become an ugly girl, grandma sees you marry out, hehe....... Grandma smiled and grimaced at Ping's grandson.

Master Hu was amused by what his grandmother said, "Ha... Ha... Ping'er is not an ugly girl when she gets fat, her facial features are correct, the bottom version is good, look at her current figure, she is the best beauty, and there is room for fat, at most she will be reduced by half a level, and she will be a beauty! ”

Lin smiled and said to Master Hu: "You, don't induce my daughter, Ping'er is fat, I want to settle accounts with you, do you want to drink some beer and stir-fry." ”

Master Hu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Ping'er, listen to your mother, I don't need to drink beer if I want to eat scientifically, and I have to drive to downtown Shanghai at night." ”

"You don't have to go to the city center tonight, Master Hu has worked hard all the way, drink some beer, comfort you, and rest early." Grandma didn't wait for Master Hu's answer, she hurriedly got up and walked to the window.

The four of them finished their meal in laughter, walked out of the restaurant, and walked around the campus, the campus environment is beautiful, all kinds of flowers and plants are bright, the woods are entangled around the campus, the tree-lined paths are quiet and fragrant, the flowers and plants exude fragrance, which is refreshing and pleasant, when they walk to the campus stele profile, the conspicuous school profile Shu Ti character comes into view: Shanghai Jiao Tong University is one of the institutions of higher learning with the longest history in China and a good reputation at home and abroad, and is a national key university directly under the Ministry of Education and jointly built with Shanghai. After 104 years of unremitting efforts, Shanghai Jiao Tong University has become a "comprehensive, research-oriented, and international" domestic first-class and internationally renowned university.

At the end of the 19th century, the First Sino-Japanese War was defeated and the nation was in danger. Sheng Yihuai, a famous industrialist and educator in modern China, and a group of people of insight adhered to the belief that "self-improvement is the first to store talents, and talents must be cultivated first", and founded Nanyang College, the predecessor of Jiaotong University, in Shanghai in 1896. At the beginning of its establishment, the school adhered to the tenet of "seeking truth and learning, pragmatism", taking the cultivation of "first-class talents" as its educational goal, being diligent and enterprising, and tirelessly, and in the twenties and thirties of the twentieth century, it has become a famous institution of higher learning in China, known as "Oriental MIT". During the Anti-Japanese War, the majority of teachers and students went through hardships, moved to the concession, moved to Chongqing, and insisted on running schools. On the eve of liberation, the majority of teachers and students actively participated in the democratic revolution, and the school was known as the "fortress of democracy".

Over the past 100 years, the school has cultivated more than 20 thousand outstanding talents for the country and society, including a group of outstanding politicians, scientists, social activists, industrialists, engineering and technical experts and medical scientists, such as Lu Dingyi, Wang Daohan, Qian Xuesen, Wu Wenjun, Xu Guangxian, etc. Among the academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering, there are more than 200 alumni of Jiaotong University; Among the heroes of the national "two bombs and one star", there are 6 alumni of Jiaotong University; Among the 18 winners of the highest national science and technology award, 3 are from Jiaotong University. Since the reform and opening up, a group of young alumni have emerged from all over the world and in all walks of life.

Shanghai Jiao Tong University's profound cultural heritage, long tradition of running a school, the development process of hard work, and especially the great achievements made since the reform and opening up have attracted attention at home and abroad. With the mission of inheriting civilization and seeking truth, and the mission of revitalizing China and benefiting mankind, this century-old university is forging ahead towards the goal of becoming a world-class university that is "comprehensive, research-oriented and internationalized".

Lin Wei carefully read the profile of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, and said to her daughter with great interest: "It is really a good university, it has been open for more than 100 years, it is a first-class university in China, and it has cultivated many outstanding talents for the motherland. ”

With her mother's words of admiration, Ping'er had a sweet smile on her face, and said proudly: "Mom, it is your hard work to cultivate your daughter that has made her today's achievements."

"Grandchild Ping is really sensible and has a grateful heart, and it is also the result of your personal hard work that you can be admitted to a first-class university in China, and grandma is proud and proud of you." Grandma gently supported Ping's grandson's back, and liked the sensible Ping'er from the bottom of her heart.

On the third day of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, at more than nine o'clock in the morning, after completing all the registration procedures, Lin Wei and his entourage wanted to part with their daughter.

Grandma couldn't help but shed tears of reluctance, Ping's grandson grew up beside her grandma, with deep emotions, today is going to part, study and live alone, a little relieved, gently hugged Ping's grandson, tears fell on Ping's grandson's shirt.

Ping's grandson endured the emotion of parting, controlled the tears in her eyes, and whispered into her grandmother's ear: "Grandma, Ping's grandson has grown up, don't worry, good sons and daughters are ambitious, grandma must also take care of her body at home, so that Ping's grandson can study with peace of mind."

As she spoke, the tears in Ping's grandson's eyes couldn't be controlled, and they poured out, she had never been far away, she had never left her family, and she was alone outside, and this kind of unrelenting emotion came to her heart.

Lin Wei saw that the two grandparents were inseparable, gently separated the two, and said affectionately: "Mom, you are so difficult to give up, Ping'er is not happy in my heart, I am not a mother in my heart, let's get in the car, my daughter is older, it's time to fly, she has her career, she can't stay by her side, she doesn't want to come back, let's go back to Nanjiang."

Lin Wei and her mother moved their heavy steps, stepped into Master Hu's car, opened the window, and waved to Ping'er: "Ping'er, please go back, goodbye!" ”

Ping'er reluctantly chased the car forward, waving her hands with tears in her eyes, and saw her off loudly: "Mom, grandma don't worry! Take care! Good bye! ”

Grandma waved her hand out of the car window and shouted loudly with tears in her eyes: "Grandchild Ping, please go back, let's go, let's call home if you want." ”

Lin Wei saw that her daughter was reluctantly chasing after the car, and couldn't bear to say to Master Hu: "Speed up, let's go, it's really uncomfortable to be so sticky."

Master Hu drove on the accelerator, accelerated away from the campus, the car turned a corner, at this time, Lin Wei looked at the back window of the car, there was no trace of Ping'er, and finally couldn't control himself, and his emotions were unbearable, erupting and crying, tears surging down......
