Chapter 141: A Chance Encounter
In fact, it is not only that I chose to compromise on this matter, but also that I chose to compromise whenever we had a disagreement in the past few days after I came back. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Because when I left S City, my mother told me privately about the old man's physical condition, and in the year I repeated, the old man lived in the hospital three times and had three surgeries! One of them was hospitalized because he was in a coma at home and called 120. The most recent time was before and after my college entrance examination, in order not to leak flaws, my parents and sister just sent me a text message during the college entrance examination and did not call.
My mother also said that the old man has been thinking about my college entrance examination even in the hospital bed, especially in the two days of my college entrance examination, he couldn't sleep on the hospital bed over and over. In fact, he is more worried about the result of this exam than me, if he does well, if he does well, if he doesn't do as well as last year, according to my character, he may hate the old man for the rest of his life! After all, this path was the one he forced me to choose.
However, in order not to affect my studies, they kept it from me.
The old man has only become so old after these tosses, and his temper has become more and more irritable. My mother was worried that I would talk back to the old man at home, so she told me privately and let me let him do everything.
After knowing these things, I felt very uncomfortable, all kinds of emotions brewed in my heart, and I still did a little too extreme in retrospective for the past year.
So in the few days when I was alone with the old man, once he showed signs of tantrums, I would choose to have a cold war with him and avoid quarrels with him. Because of this, we have always been safe, which makes my mother a little unconvinced.
Originally, we should have to go to the station in the county to buy a ticket by taking the bus to City C, but in order to make money, the ticket seller opened a ticket booking service, and then beckoned us to get on the bus at the highway intersection of M Town, and the price was cheaper than in the station. In order to save trouble and money, we passengers prefer to book tickets from ticket sellers.
But there is a problem with this, the time for boarding the ticket booked by the ticket seller is not punctual, and generally the ticket seller will ask us to wait at him at nine o'clock, but it is good to be able to get on the bus before eleven o'clock.
But we couldn't help but go, because sometimes the ticket seller's notice was not only not advanced, but delayed, and the car might come to the highway entrance of M Town at half past eight.
When waiting, it made people feel a little anxious, and a group of five of us here stood on the highway waiting for the bus from the county to come.
Why are there five of them? Because Tan Hai's family is more exaggerated, not only his father wants to send him to college, but even his grandfather has to follow. Because Tan Hai was raised by his grandfather since he was a child, and at first his father did not agree to let him go to college, but it was his grandfather who insisted on it, and his grandfather said that he could only rest assured if he saw Tan Hai enter college in person.
The two universities in City C basically let new students register for the next few days, so there are not only a few of us waiting on the highway. It's just that when it was almost eleven o'clock, everyone else had already gotten into the car one after another, and only the five of us watched the cars coming and going under a pedestrian bridge.
At this time, two more people came from the side road where we entered the highway, and they saw that they were carrying large bags and suitcases, and they were probably freshmen who were going to report to the university just like us.
When they got closer, I could tell that it was an old man with a girl my age, but I couldn't tell what they looked like because I didn't wear glasses.
They had some difficulty crossing the fence on the side of the highway, after all, the old man was also a lot old, and the suitcase in his hand did not look light.
The old man gave me a look and asked me to help.
I hurriedly walked over and gave a hand, lifted the heavy suitcase from outside the protective fence, and then helped carry their other large and small bags.
"Thank you, young man." The old man said to me with a smile.
"The old man is polite, this is as it should be." I smiled, and then I was ready to leave.
"Thank you so much, classmate." The girl spoke.
"No ......"
I glanced back at the girl, and was about to say you're welcome, but I was stunned. Because I was only concerned about moving things just now, I didn't have time to see what the girl looked like, and at this time, I was shocked when I saw the girl's face clearly.
"Song Zijie (Qin Xiao), why are you?!"
I called out the girl's name at the same time.
The girl in front of me is my junior high school tablemate-Qin Xiao, we haven't seen each other for five years, and we have only occasionally used QQ to contact each other within five years. Because I don't have a mobile phone, QQ is less online, and both of us are online at the same time!
I haven't seen her for so many years, and Qin Xiao's face hasn't changed much except for the change in her figure, so I recognized her at a glance.
"Xiaoxiao, is this your classmate?" The old man asked curiously.
"Old man, Qin Xiao and I are junior high school classmates, and I haven't seen her for five years, so I didn't expect to see her here." I said with some excitement.
"Okay, let's talk." The old man said happily.
"How are you all these years?" Qin Xiao also said with some excitement.
"That's it, there's nothing good or bad. By the way, are you going to report to the university? I said nonchalantly.
"yes, are you too?"
"Uh-huh, shouldn't you have been in college last year? How? Have you also repeated it for a year? I asked, confused.
"No, I did too badly in the high school entrance examination, so I went to Dongliu to re-study in the third year of junior high school. Oh, by the way, where is your school? Qin Xiao asked in turn.
I think God's arrangement is really amazing, I never thought that I would have a day to say goodbye to Qin Xiao. Just imagine, whether it was her re-reading of the third year of junior high school, or my re-study, if it hadn't happened at the same time, we would have met here by chance today.
"Oh, in C City and P County, a second-class college at the bottom."
"That's right, I only went to the main line three times this year, and the people in my family asked me to study medicine, so I went to the medical school in LZ City." Qin Xiao said with some disappointment.
"Yes, LZ Medical School is relatively famous in China, unlike our school, few people have heard of it at all." I shrugged my shoulders and said.
We talked a lot about it, and it seemed that it was the same as five years ago, and it didn't show any signs of life because of the passage of time.
Then we left each other's contact information, and Qin Xiao's car actually came before us, so I helped her carry her things to the trunk of the bus.
"Classmates?"
After sending Qin Xiao away, the old man asked me lightly.
"Yes! I haven't seen my junior high school classmates for five years. ”
"What college is she in?"
As he spoke, the old man took the cigarette out of his pocket and gave it to Tan Hai's grandfather and father, and then he lit it and took a deep breath.
"LZ School of Medicine."
When it was almost twelve o'clock, our car finally arrived, and in the meantime, I silently greeted the unreliable ticket seller and his family hundreds of times in my heart. He rushed us over before nine o'clock and made us stand here for three hours! The point is to be able to get here at nine o'clock, the old man and I didn't even have time to eat breakfast, and we are still hungry!
As soon as I got in the car, my phone vibrate, and it turned out that Qin Xiao sent me a text message.
"Did you get in the car? I'm almost in N City. ”
"Just got on the bus, this ticket seller is so unreliable! Let's wait for three hours! I replied.
"After so many years, you have changed a lot, and I didn't recognize it at first."
Just as I was about to put my phone in my pants bag, Qin Xiao sent another text message.
"You haven't changed much, except for your height."
After sending a few text messages to Qin Xiao, I was really sleepy, I packed up with the old man last night and got up at about six o'clock today. Along the way, I was rushing and waiting for the bus, and now I sit in my seat and relax, and the drowsiness invades my brain.
