Chapter 1 The Future
In late autumn, it was rainy and rainy for more than ten days. The weather is getting cooler, and the acacia trees on both sides of the road are becoming more and more crisp under the continuous rain washing. In a geological college located in the northeast corner of the provincial capital, the students who were originally full of people were driven back to their classrooms or dormitories by the continuous rain. The multimedia classroom in the comprehensive teaching building is crowded with people, and even the entrance is crowded with people. Some people say that some people laugh, and it is very lively, like rushing to the market.
"Hey, classmate, let's Jean!" a thin old man tugged at the already crowded crowd.
"Why, it's easy for me to occupy such a position, I!" a tall, thin and white boy glanced at the old man.
The old man was stunned for a moment, then took a few steps back, crossed his hands over his chest, leaned against the wall, and looked at the crowd in front of him with a smile.
"That's right, Uncle is here to join in the fun, so how can we be embarrassed. The tall and lanky boy smirked as he pulled the crowd in front of him.
The old man looked at him for a while, and then waved his hand, "Come on, come on, you can't squeeze in, why don't we come here and talk." When the old man saw that he did not move, he reached out and dragged him over.
The tall and thin boy still had that evil smile on his face, "Old man, you are delaying my future, everyone is squeezing in, but you are pulling outside." ”
"Tell me, what kind of future is this?" the old man still had the same smiling expression, but mixed with some cunning.
"Old man, don't you even know that you're still here to join in the fun? I said you should go back and play chess, that's the right thing. The tall and thin boy said as he craned his neck to look inside.
"Alas, don't look at it, what about throwing hydrangeas inside?"
"You don't understand, it's more important than throwing a hydrangea, you're grabbing the future!" the tall and thin boy's neck didn't shrink back at all.
"What a future, let's hear about it. "The old man is very serious.
"I heard that Chen Jiahe, deputy director of the Provincial Geological Survey Bureau, is going to come to the school to give a lecture, and if he behaves properly during ......the class, the director will be dizzy, and maybe the job will be decided like this. Oops!" Tian Xiang said as he tiptoed to look inside, and was accidentally stepped on by the person in front of him.
The old man helped him up, examined him from top to bottom, and grinned, "Since it's important, why don't you come early, how do you behave crowded at the door?"
"Old man, don't educate me, although I came late, but my health is good, squeezing in for a matter of minutes, if it weren't for the fear that these guys who don't have long eyes would hurt you, I would have gone in earlier. Tian Xiang said, pointing to the crowded crowd, "Besides, our dean is too picky, such a big school is not a decent classroom, and you have to do warm-up exercises first to listen to a class, which will sweep away your old fun and have fun." ”
"In that case, I'm really delaying your future. The old man said quite seriously.
"It's not a good thing, so you better go back for a walk, this kind of excitement is not enough. Old man, you don't know how difficult it is for us hard-pressed young people to find a job. Still studying geology...... "Tian Xiang didn't look at the old man at all."
"Then why did you choose this major?" the old man asked.
"Whoever chose this major has been transferred to it, and I have been annoyed for more than three years. Tian Xiang replied smoothly.
"Bureau Chen, why did you come here directly, Dean Liu and they are still waiting in the reception room. I'm here to maintain discipline, I didn't expect you to arrive first. The head of the department, Jiang Wei, trotted all the way.
The old man turned to look at Director Jiang and said with a smile: "Lecture, naturally I want to come to the classroom, tell Lao Liu, what are you doing so much, let them go to their respective jobs, I will go to him after the lecture, he still owes me a meal." ”
Tian Xiang on the side was dumbfounded when he heard this, looked at Director Jiang and then at the old man, "Chen, Bureau Chen......? Director?" Tian Xiang muttered.
"What's the matter? Retired Chen Ju is not in your eyes?"
Tian Xiang blushed, "No, it's not...... , how could it be. I ......"
The old man smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Boy, my mouth was so slippery just now, and now I stuttered, I shouldn't have delayed your future, right?"
Tian Xiang hurriedly smiled, "No, no, how can it?"
Director Jiang glared at Tian Xiang, he didn't know what this kid was doing, and it was not easy to attack. Turning his head and shouting at the classmates at the door, "Let me go, let me let go!" Block the door, what does it look like!" The crowd loosened and made way for a passage, "Chen Ju, please." Jiang Wei gestured.
The old man patted Tian Xiang's shoulder again, and walked in first with a smile.
Director Jiang turned his head and glanced at Tian Xiang, "You have everything to do, and it's all about chaos." With that, he walked in.
After Director Jiang entered, the crowd closed, and Tian Xiang was still standing on the outermost periphery, tiptoeing and stretching his neck to look inside.
The classroom quickly fell silent, and after Director Jiang made a brief introduction, the old man's deep voice sounded in the classroom.
"Standing here, it feels like coming home, because I also walked out of this campus......"
"There are women who don't marry and keep empty houses all year round. One day, I will go home and bring back a pile of dirty clothes. ”
......
Chen Ju's lecture was extremely wonderful, and he didn't need any textbook handouts at all, as if he was chatting with everyone, starting from his own experience, showing the bits and pieces about geology, joys, sorrows, and sorrows, which attracted applause again and again.
Attracted by the deep voice, more and more people gathered at the door.
"I've talked so much, who can tell me why I chose this major?" Chen Ju squinted his eyes and smiled as he walked around the classroom.
"Devote yourself to the cause of geology and minerals and contribute to the construction of the motherland!" a fat man stood up and shouted a slogan at the top of his voice.
"Walk all over the world, leave your own footprints between the mountains and rivers of the motherland!" said a little girl.
......
All kinds of answers are nothing more than putting gold on their faces. Director Jiang smiled and looked at the students in the audience, although he knew that these answers were basically nonsense, he was still very satisfied, at least he did not embarrass the school.
"There are so many students at the door who haven't spoken yet, so let's give them some opportunities. Old man Chen seemed to be in the mood, and turned his head against the podium and said to the crowded crowd at the door. However, before others could speak, Old Man Chen said again, "What is the name of the big man standing on the outermost? ”
All the eyes of the entire classroom and the door were on Tian Xiang, who was tiptoeing and stretching his neck.
Tian Xiang's face turned red to the root of his ears. It's not that he is nervous on this occasion, and it's not that he has nothing to say, in fact, he really wants to shout "dedicate his youth to the motherland", but the key is that he has leaked the bottom to the old man just now, and it seems a bit too fake to shout this now. As a last resort, he cleared his throat and replied with a blushing face: "I was transferred." ”
"Coaxing", the audience burst into laughter. On the side, Director Jiang's face pulled the elder and glanced at Tian Xiang a few times.
Old man Chen smiled slightly, pressed his hand to signal quiet, seemed to be not happy, and had a bit of a "shameful name" consciousness, "You haven't answered what your name is?"
Tian Xiang couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, broke his mouth once, and lost his face all over the academy. But it doesn't seem to be reasonable if he doesn't answer, because Director Jiang is looking at him with a dark face. Therefore, his heart was horizontal, and he replied in a bright voice: "Tian Xiang, Tian of the field, Xiang of Xiangyang." Then a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, and he gave Jiang Wei a glance back.
Director Jiang's teeth itched with hatred.
Later, Chen Ju talked a lot, but Tian Xiang didn't listen much, and even left early. came to join in the fun, I wanted to leave a good impression on the leaders, and there was a foreshadowing when the Geological Bureau recruited people. But now, the whole hospital knows that he is a transfer student, and if he doesn't want to learn, who will blindly recruit himself in? Tian Xiang was quite annoyed.
What is even more annoying is that he was severely criticized by Director Jiang for several days in a row, and even openly gave himself a nickname at the conference - "Adjustment Student", which disgusted Tian Xiang for a few days.
"Don't you just tell the truth, you need to do this!" Tian Xiang was very angry, lying on the bed and complaining.
"Hey, don't say it, your big truth has exhausted the voices of many people, the six people in our dormitory are transferred two and a half, and after more than three years, we will have to find a job next year. If you look at other departments, those who have done it early have already begun to submit resumes. Look at us again...... , hey, go to sleep, you won't be able to sleep well if you stop for another half a year. The monkey on the top bunk croaked for a while, stared at each other, and lay on the bed to stand upright.
The monkey's name is Ge Hou, and it is said that his father's surname is Ge and his mother's surname is Hou, so he got the name "Ge Hou". What's too much is that this guy has been in school for more than three years, and he hasn't learned half a sentence of Mandarin, and he grins in dialects all day long, and few people can understand it at all. Therefore, in the first month of Ge Hou's arrival at the school, the whole class reached a consensus - this guy has not evolved yet, he is a monkey.
Tian Xiang glanced at the monkey, "Poured out the bitter water? You are fucking pretending to be dead in the classroom, why don't you stand up and respond?"
The monkey bounced up from the bed, "Don't take kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, it's not that I don't want to respond, the key is that I'm afraid that the old man won't understand what I say." ”
Ma Ruilin, the head of the dormitory, came in with a basin of face water, "Xiang, what the monkey said is true, as far as his monkey language is concerned, the old man will definitely think that he is scolding." ”
"Old horse, don't pretend to be a good person here, your donkey laughed the loudest that day. "Tian Xiang is not without good spirits.
"Xiang, you won't be a dog, will you catch whoever bites. The old horse laughed and argued.
"What a donkey laughs, it's obviously a horse neighing. The monkey was busy lifting the corpse and did not forget to answer.
"Get out, you kid is the most traitor, do you want to talk to me?" Marellian spat on.
"Why didn't I feel like you were talking for me?" the monkey didn't move.
"Alright, go ahead and bare your teeth, and I won't be with you. Tian Xiang bounced up from the bed, picked up his coat and walked out.
Lao Ma's voice came from behind him, "Xiang, return to school at half past nine in the evening, don't let Lao Jiang hold on to it." ”
"Got it!" Tian Xiang replied as he went downstairs.
