The plane took off.

Tang Mingyao sat by the window, through the narrow window, watching the city widen away under his eyes, and the buildings gradually turned into matchboxes on the sand table, and his heart was full of emotion.

When he came, he came empty-handed.

When he went, he returned with a full load.

Well, literally, with a full load.

I came to the Oriental Pearl, and I went home for the New Year immediately, and I couldn't go back without some gifts, so I went around the streets and alleys for a long time and bought a big bag of things.

remembered that yesterday in the magazine, I chatted with the budding editor-in-chief for more than two hours, and finally the editor-in-chief promised that he would personally catch the pen in this interview, so that Tang Mingyao is still a little fluttery.

The salary is too high, so unreal!

The finished article of the interview is not yet visible, but the editor-in-chief said that the February magazine has not yet been published, just to wait for the results of the new concept essay contest to come out, and when the interview is finished, the editorial department and the printing house will have to work overtime.

However, it will not be able to fully catch up, and it will be a few days later than the normal time of market.

Tang Mingyao thought that when this issue of the magazine arrived in the county seat, he would return to the countryside early, and he would have to read the interview and come back from the countryside after the year.

Get off the plane.

No one picked up the airport, Tang Mingyao dragged his luggage, transferred to the bus station, waited for a long time to buy a bus ticket, and took the car back to the county seat.

Because at this time, train tickets were basically unavailable, and the waiting hall of the railway station in the provincial capital was crowded with thousands of people in the canned sardines.

The car is on the go, although the frequency is less and the fare is expensive, but it is much easier to get on the train than the Spring Festival train.

It was already nine o'clock at night when I returned to the county seat, the shop at home had closed, and the downstairs was dark, only the upstairs was still lit.

Tang Mingyao entered the house through the side door, and the movement alarmed his parents, and when he came out to take a look, he found that his son was back, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

"It's so late, why don't you make a phone call before leaving? So that your dad will pick you up at the station. Mother complained.

Tang Mingyao said: "How can I take the car on time these days, let my father go to the station, maybe he won't be able to wait for me for a day and a night." Besides, it's not like I haven't gone out alone, I'm not so squeamish, just come back by myself. Go to sleep, I'll clean up and sleep. ”

At this time, his parents were not sleepy at all, and chased after him and asked, "How is it?" How about that game? ”

Tang Mingyao said: "It's very good, I won the first prize, the national first prize!" ”

"Ahh

Parents shouted in surprise.

They looked at each other twice, and they both saw the excitement in each other's eyes.

The national first prize, although they don't understand the weight, but it sounds very lofty, more than the provincial first prize.

Tang Mingyao didn't interrupt the two of them being happy, opened the luggage, took out the crystal trophy and certificate from it, and handed it to the two: "Oh, the certificate and the trophy, I'll show you." ”

The father hurriedly took it with both hands, for fear of falling.

Holding it in their hands, the two of them looked through it carefully, as if they were holding a holy grail.

It took a few minutes before my father returned the things to Tang Mingyao and said, "Put it away, put it away, don't break it." You don't have a place for trophies in this house, so I'm going to buy a glass case tomorrow to store them. ”

Tang Mingyao looked at his room and said, "Dad, just buy a small one, it's too big to take up space, and you can't move your feet." Well, by the way, it can also be used as a bookcase. ”

"Okay, I'll go see it tomorrow."

After being excited for a while, my father remembered what Tang Mingyao said before leaving, what is the college entrance examination score reduction policy, and what are the special recruitments, and asked: "That...... Did you win the first prize and meet the university teacher? ”

Tang Mingyao said: "Yes, the admissions officers of seven universities have met, Jinghua University, East China Normal University, and Shandong #Dong University...... All of them are first-class universities in China. Your son is amazing, those universities saw me, and they rushed to let me go to their school, and I didn't even have to take the college entrance examination. Now, I'm just going to finish high school honestly and go straight to college. ”

"Really...... Is there such a thing? ”

Tang Mingyao said: "Isn't this quite ordinary, in this competition, there are only about 30 first prize winners, in addition to me, there are fifteen people who have been specially recruited by these universities, all of whom do not need to take the college entrance examination, and will go directly to the university to report in the future." However, this is also a good time to catch up, and the policy may have to change in a year or two, and even if you win the first prize at that time, it is not so easy to be admitted directly without examination, and at most you will be admitted with a reduced score. ”

"Good, good!"

The two parents were so excited that they were wandering around the room.

It's not easy, in the mountains of my hometown, how many college students have come out of it for so many years?

Before, their expectations for their son were to finish high school and honestly take the university entrance examination, if they could get into a good university, then long live, and they could take the average exam; If you can't pass the exam, you have a high Chinese certificate, and going out to work in the future is also a bit of culture, and you will be a grassroots manager in a factory for a few years, so as not to be a low-level worker for a lifetime.

This is their most simple expectation of their son.

Who knew that this high school had only been in high school for half a year, and the two had not fully recovered from the impact of their son's skipping grades, and suddenly there was good news that they could go directly to college!!

I was overjoyed.

The mother was so happy that she was wiping her tears, muttering that she was worthy of the ancestors of the Tang family, and that the family was going to have a college student.

After a while, they came back to their senses and asked, "Is it finally decided, which university?" ”

Tang Mingyao: "Jinghua University. ”

The two of them were excited again, so excited that they were incoherent.

Tang Mingyao hurried to the people: "You two hurry back to the house, I have been on the plane and car for a day, and I still have to sleep." By the way, you don't have to cook me dinner, I ate out before I came back. ”

I drove my parents away, washed up, lay down in bed, empty my mind, and fell asleep after a while.

When I got up the next day, I saw that my parents were yawning and looking tired, but my eyes were still shining, so I knew that the two of them had not slept well all night.

He shook his head and told them that the news of going to college should not be spread here, because the neighbors here are not very familiar, and his own shop is enough to make people angry, and if he pokes this matter out, maybe someone will come to burn their house in the middle of the night.

But after returning to their hometown, love is up to them.

Pack up, read books, and go out with a gift for Luo Wenxi.

Today is February 2nd, the 4th is Chinese New Year's Eve, and the 3rd is his birthday.

I contacted Luo Wenxi on QQ before, and my little girlfriend is about to go home with her parents for the New Year, and she has thought of a lot of ways to do it until today, and if she doesn't meet today, I'm afraid that I won't see you until the New Year.

When he arrived at the agreed gate of Moon Lake Park, from a distance, Tang Mingyao saw Luo Wenxi wearing a long red down jacket, wandering in circles, in stark contrast to the bleak winter scenery around him.
