Chapter 11: Departure
Liu Ze went back to the rental house to change his clothes, and he didn't pack up his things first, and took the bus directly to Gyeongnam Town, at this time Gyeongju was still very underdeveloped except for the urban area, and the bus to Gyeongnam Town was still that small, with few seats, all the way along the national highway to the south, there was no fixed station, and whoever wanted to get off the bus shouted directly.
The bus at this point is also crowded with people, there are two parents with their children who have just finished the exam, plus Liu Ze, three high school juniors, and some farmers who go to the city to buy things.
The two fathers struck up a conversation.
"You're also taking your child to just finish the college entrance examination, how is the exam?"
"Kuizi said that the question is difficult, the test is so-so, it's best to pass the line, you can't come back for another year, I've been in high school for three years, why don't you continue to take the test, your baby did well in the test, right?"
The father who took the initiative to ask said proudly: "My family Daqiang is the experimental class of the second middle school, and the head teacher is the principal of the second middle school. ”
Daqiang's dad said and gave a thumbs up.
When the other two students heard about the experimental class of No. 2 Middle School, they immediately looked at Daqiang, who was sitting in the position to read the novel, he looked at the book intently, without skimming his eyes, extremely proud, in the eyes of the students in the experimental class of No. 2 Middle School, everyone else was a scumbag.
"Oh, it's amazing, I heard Kuizi say that the experimental class is famous, and the students in the class have good grades, all of which are key undergraduate materials." Kuizi's father glanced at his child and said enviously.
Daqiang's father was also very proud, and said: "This time the topic is too difficult, my Daqiang also plays averagely, usually the top 50 in the city, fortunately, the principal said, this time the key line will not exceed 500 points, Daqiang 520 points is no problem." ”
"Oh yo, this is amazing, so many points beyond the key line, then you can be admitted to a famous university, what 211 university, I always heard people say, it's weird, you can make a lot of money after graduation."
At this time, the big strong nose sitting there reading a book snorted, it was really boring to listen to the words of these uneducated people, continued to look down at the book, and said disdainfully: "What's so great about 211, there are 100 schools in the country, and my goal is the Weicheng branch of Bingcheng University, a 985-ranked school." ”
"What's 985?" Kui Zi's father is not annoyed at all, this young man in front of him is a key college student, amazing.
"On May 4, 1985, the country launched a world-class university construction project, there are only nine schools in the country, this is the real old famous school, this school, my score is definitely not enough, but the branch can still rush."
"Awesome, awesome, I'm a good girl, you kid is terrible."
Daqiang's father is dark-skinned, works all day long, and has great expectations for his son.
smiled: "The score hasn't officially come out yet, so it's not counted." ”
Daqiang's father was very excited and asked, "You juniors are also juniors in high school, how did you do in the exam?" ”
"It's not good, math and science are too difficult."
"I ...... I didn't do well in the exam, and I didn't know how to explain it when I got home. ”
……
Liu Ze stood a little forward, didn't pay too much attention, Daqiang's father nodded his back, and said, "Little classmate, you are also a junior in high school, how are you doing?" ”
"I did okay in the exam, and I played normally."
"Can I go to undergrad?"
"Yes."
"Can you get to the point?"
"Yes."
"That's pretty powerful, it's not easy to get into key universities."
Daqiang was a little impatient with his father, and shouted: "Don't keep asking and asking, ask others what they do, it's boring." ”
was reprimanded by the child like this, he was not annoyed at all, smiled, doted on the child, and said with a smile: "You child, what's wrong with chatting a few words." ”
"Little classmate, what school are you going to apply for?"
"Ice City University."
The school that I have thought of for a long time, the farthest place from home.
There was an uproar and a stunned uproar.
Even the big strong classmate who was dragging him raised his head suddenly.
"Good girl, you baby is really promising." Daqiang's father said with wide eyes.
The bus stopped at Qingnan Middle School, Liu Ze nodded slightly and said hello and got off the bus, feeling that the parents in Qingnan Town were heartbroken for their children's study, hey, it's just a pity that most students are destined to take the exam for two or three years, which is a torment for a family.
……
June 8, 2004, in any case, it was a very important watershed in life, again before the rules of schooling, under the guardianship of parents, after that, marked adulthood.
Su Anan didn't do well in the exam, with an estimated score of only more than 400 points, and she couldn't even get into three books, so she cried.
So much so that she was still lying in bed to recuperate after the exam, and the standard answer was that her father drove to school to get it back, somehow, she was very sad, she wanted to go to a city with Liu Ze, but she couldn't even get into college.
Time flies quickly, two months have passed, the classmates in the class have gathered several times, but they have not seen Liu Ze again, Su Anan was lost again and again, he didn't want to go again and again, and he was afraid that Liu Ze would come, so he participated again and again.
After Liu Ze finished the college entrance examination, he completely disappeared after filling in the volunteers, and no one knew where he was.
He went to Jianghai alone to join his relatives, worked for two months, earned 5,000 yuan, and he had a steely will and execution.
On a hot evening, I flipped through the "Advanced Mathematics" in the university, and the landlord of my relative, a respected professor, accidentally saw him studying, and came out to earn his own tuition, which was very appreciative and gave a lot of guidance.
The day of school has arrived.
It's always a little sad to leave home, but Liu Ze is more happy, the outside world, he wants to see, and finally no longer has to endure the endless quarrels of his parents, and can finally use his own strength to achieve the life he wants.
In college, the career and love he wants will also begin to sprout.
………
Sioux City.
Ning Xiaoze packed his luggage, glanced at the room where he had lived for more than ten years, and had to leave, but his mood was very relaxed, his mother's eyes were red, her daughter was too stubborn, and she was resolutely not allowed to send her to school, a girl had to apply for the farthest university in the Northeast, first rushed from Sucheng to Jianghai, and then took a 33-hour train to Bingcheng.
How can a girl rest assured, it's the first time to leave the house.
Ning Xiaoze said lightly: "Mom, I'm leaving." ”
Leaving home, there is some fear of the unknown, but she is reluctant to show it.
She has a strong personality and doesn't like to dress too girly, never wears skirts, never wears women's shoes with heels, basically standard dress, sports pants or jeans, a pair of sneakers on her feet, and a ponytail.
She doesn't look forward to the future, and she doesn't eagerly do anything.
She thought that since people don't die, let's live step by step.
