Chapter 8 Going to the Exam
On August 5th, the weather was fine.
Before dawn, Tang Mingyao got up early, and when he went to the kitchen, he saw that his mother had already gotten up before him and was making breakfast.
When the two of them finished eating and set off for the town, it was not yet six o'clock.
Today, the township will not rush to the market, they must walk to the township by themselves, catch the bus that was sent to the county seat at half past seven in the morning, and then bump more than 20 miles on the bus to reach the destination of this trip.
In fact, it's just a matter of going to the town to take an exam, Tang Mingyao can go by himself, but his mother Li Qiong is not at ease, and if he has to follow, he can't refuse.
After all, in his mother's opinion, he is a child who has never traveled far, and if he is delayed along the way and does not catch the bus, or sits at the station, or gets lost directly, it is irreparable, so she must follow in person to rest assured.
The two hurried all the way, walked twelve miles of mountain roads, and when they got on the bus in the township, the time was only seven o'clock.
Luckily, there's plenty of time.
Tang Mingyao sat in his position and waited for a while, and guests came up one after another.
When it was almost half past seven, suddenly there was a muffled sound on the body, and it seemed that the whole car was sinking down, and then I saw a huge figure squeezing up from the door and appearing in Tang Mingyao's sight.
He knew this person, the famous local tyrant in their village, Luo Zhi.
I don't know if it's because the family is too rich, and the whole person eats fat balls.
And not only him, but his wife and his son, who is just ten years old this year, are all virtuous, and the three of them are one hundred and eighty pounds each, and there is absolutely no moisture.
This is also because his son is young and has dragged his feet.
The reason why Tang Mingyao knows the family well is because he and their daughter are classmates.
After the big fat man Luo Zhi got into the car, a petite girl appeared behind him.
At the age of twelve or thirteen, wearing a lace long-sleeved T-shirt, slim-fitting jeans, and small red leather shoes that are absolutely fashionable for the countryside in this era, the whole person is more foreign than the little girl in the city.
Her face is a round apple face, her facial features are exquisite, her hair is neatly combed, and she has a high braided twist at the back of her head.
"Rowan Creek!"
Tang Mingyao shouted.
That's right, this girl is the daughter of the big fat man Luo Zhi, the classmate he just said.
In the family atmosphere of three big fat people, a little girl with a beautiful face and a slender figure is out of place no matter how you look at it.
"It must have been picked up!"
This is one of the most talked about topics in the village behind their backs.
At this time, Luo Wenxi also found Tang Mingyao, his face was surprised, and two cute little dimples suddenly appeared on his face.
She said, "Tang Mingyao, why are you here?" ”
"I went to town to take the exam. Do you also go to the exam? ”
Luo Wenxi was at a loss: "What exam?" ”
Tang Mingyao hurriedly explained, and after finishing speaking, he asked: "Your grades are very good, you are second in the class every time, and you are also in the top ten in the whole grade, why didn't Teacher Zhang inform you?" He's too unreliable. ”
Luo Wenxi shook his head and didn't say anything.
After a while, she laughed again: "It's nothing, I'm not interested anyway, it doesn't matter if I take the test or not." I'm going to the city to play today, and my dad said he wants to buy a computer for the family, do you know the computer? Why don't you go with me? ”
Tang Mingyao was powerless to complain.
What do you do when you buy a computer? I can't access the Internet, and I'm really scared of money.
He also wanted to continue to persuade the other party, saying that there was no need to register in advance for this exam, and when he arrived at the exam room and filled in his name and school, he could go directly to the test, so it was better to get off halfway to the test and then go to the city to buy a computer.
However, when he finished speaking, he found that Luo Wenxi did not answer, but turned the topic to the new gadgets in the city.
Tang Mingyao saw that she really didn't have much interest, so he had no choice but to stop.
How so?
The daughter of a local tyrant family has the qualifications to be willful.
In his previous life, Luo Wenxi didn't take that exam, he studied in the township for a year in junior high school, and then transferred directly to the county seat, and then studied for another year, and he didn't graduate from junior high school, so he went out to work.
A few years later, with the financial support of her parents, she opened a supermarket next to the county train station, and business was booming.
Although Luo Wenxi didn't get to much height in the end, he was a few streets away from Tang Mingyao, at least in terms of income.
So what could he say, he didn't say anything.
The bus was launched.
Constantly bumping on the old dirt road in the countryside, Tang Mingyao took such a torturous car for the first time in his life, and when he arrived in the town, he almost threw up because of motion sickness.
"Luo Wenxi, goodbye!"
As he got out of the car, he greeted his classmates and turned his attention to the upcoming exams.
Teacher Zhang gave the approximate address when he spoke, Tang Mingyao took his mother all the way to ask, and then with the vague memory of his previous life, he quickly found the exam site.
At the door, two teachers, a man and a woman, are registering the students who have entered.
Tang Mingyao glanced at it, and his neck subconsciously retracted.
The male teacher he knew, was the high school class teacher in his previous life, and the head of the political teaching and research group of the county No. 1 middle and high school, surnamed Guo.
When Tang Mingyao went to Mr. Guo's class to report in his first year of high school, he also talked about today's exam, saying that Tang Mingyao left a deep impression on him.
That was the first time Tang Mingyao felt that fate was wonderful.
Now, he also feels that fate is wonderful.
But when I think about it, the social circle of a person's life is so big, and it is actually very normal to go around and meet acquaintances.
He wasn't ready to get close to Teacher Guo, so he explained to his mother, so he honestly lined up to sign up and walked into the examination room.
At this time, there was still half an hour before the start of the exam, Tang Mingyao looked around at the candidates in the examination room, and found that there were only four or five people he knew, all of whom were from their township primary school, and their scores could rank in the top ten in the township.
As for the other candidates, they were from the other four townships in the town.
This time, the county No. 1 middle school has made great efforts to recruit students, and there are test centers in every town in the county, and the goal is to select the top students in the county to form a rocket class, so as to make a splash in the future high school entrance examination and make a name for itself.
There are a total of 34 townships in the county, and if each township selects ten students to take the exam, the total reference number is 340.
Plus one small, two small, three small, and attached small ...... in the county
The total number of references may exceed 500 people.
These 500 people are all the top students in each school, and the final number of students admitted to the experimental class is only 50.
You can imagine how difficult it is to get in.
Tang Mingyao suddenly understood why there were many over-syllabus questions in this exam paper. If all the knowledge within the scope of primary school is tested, it is likely that there will be 300 perfect score test papers when grading, and then a fart will be selected.
Only by increasing the difficulty of the exam can the gap between candidates be widened.
It was nine o'clock in the blink of an eye.
The two invigilators returned to the classroom, unsealed the sealed bag in public, took out the test papers, and distributed them one by one.
