Wang Yuan put jade pixiu and antique porcelain into the space, and then found a deli to buy a few catties of cooked mutton, and went to the county No. 1 middle school to leave two catties for his sister Wang Qing.

I went to the supply and marketing cooperative, bought two bottles of canned food, some cakes, and then rode a bicycle to my home.

At night.

Wang Yuan called his cousins Wang Meng and Wang Hu to his house, put them on the table on the kang and ate fragrant rabbit meat while drinking.

Li Yan, Zhang Qian and the little girl set up another table in the outhouse, and they couldn't talk together without drinking, so they ate outside.

Thundered~

A muffled thunder sounded in the sky outside the window, and heavy rain followed, rustling ~ The rain fell on the small mountain village, smashing on the roof, the windowsill, the ground and the tips of people's hearts.

"Close the windows and let the rain rain into the house."

"The drama box says that there is no rain, why is it still raining?"

"Let's go down and don't get drenched with us anyway, come and drink."

Wang Yuan, Wang Meng, Wang Hu touched a cup, and then picked up a piece of delicious rabbit meat and ate it, the rabbit meat was fried, fat and thin saw each other, and the oil flower was very fragrant when he took a bite.

When Wang Yuan was talking to Li Shen, Li Hang, Ergou and others, he would usually go through what he wanted to say in his head before saying it to prevent him from saying the wrong thing.

Doing so will make your speech more organized, more respectful, but also more tiring.

But chatting with Wang Meng and Wang Hu, there is no such trouble at all.

Everyone is their own person who wants to say what they want to say, and when they are tired of sitting, they can lie down, which is very relaxed and enjoyable.

The three of them talked about everything, from farming to hunting, to women, earning money, farming, tobacco, storybooks, murderers, interesting stories in the village, and so on.

It wasn't until 11 o'clock at night that we had a good time.

"Ah~" The little girl climbed onto the kang, sandwiched a piece of rabbit meat, and lay down in Wang Yuan's arms to eat: "Second brother, how can you speak so vernacular?" Aren't you sleepy? ”

"Huh? Little girl, you want to be beaten again, don't you? ”

"Hee-hee, don't beat me, my mother hasn't beaten me in three days."

The little girl's words instantly made Wang Yuan, Wang Meng and Wang Hu laugh.

It's not early, after cleaning up Wang Meng, Zhang Qian and Wang Hu left, in order to cover the rain, of course, they wore ponchos made of fertilizer bags.

Wang Yuan's family has a lot of storybooks, Wang Hu has been obsessed with reading books recently, and after reading "The Legend of the Shooting Heroes" and "Journey to the West", this time he brought back a copy of "Water Margin".

"Hurry up Ming'er to return "The Legend of the Withered Heroes" and "Journey to the West", I want to see it too."

"Know, know~"

After sending the three of them away, Wang Yuan plugged in the door and went back to the house to sleep, the little girl stayed in this courtyard, Li Yan laid a mattress and quilt for her, but the little girl sat on the kang in a daze.

She always felt like something was missing.

Then it dawned on her that her big white cat wasn't in the yard.

"I ...... My cat isn't here to belch. ”

"What a cat is not a cat, hurry up and go to sleep."

Wang Yuan had already drunk a lot of wine, but today he was tired for another day, and he fell asleep soon after getting into the quilt.

The little girl pouted, helpless, and could only hurry up to sleep, and soon the house was completely quiet.

The other side.

Zhang Qian and Wang Meng also returned to their own homes.

Wang Meng's face turned red because of drinking, and he wanted to sleep when he lay on the kang.

Zhang Qian poured herself a bowl of water, and then grabbed a handful of melon seeds and ate them:

"The eldest brother's family is really rich, just now you were drinking in the back room, I chatted with Li Yan in the outhouse, she said that the chicken farm can produce more than 100 catties of eggs a day!"

Wang Meng's heart was not drunk, he lay on the kang and closed his eyes and said: "Don't just watch the eggs, chicken food also costs a lot of money, and you have to manage it every day, and you don't have to worry about it."

"But to make money!? A hundred and ten pounds of eggs a day, a thief is worth a lot. ”

"Why do you want to raise it too? I'm working on a forest farm, have you done it yourself? ”

Zhang Qian stopped speaking for an instant.

……

Time flies, and it comes to July 16, 1987.

Second aunt's house.

The second aunt looked at the sun outside and said worriedly: "I don't know if Xiaofang's girl can pass the exam this year?" If you can't pass the exam in the second year, what will happen when the time comes. ”

The room was full of people, grandparents, third aunts, Wang Yuan's father and mother, him, Li Yan and Wang Hu, Zhang Qian, and so on.

"This star really wants to retire"

Wang Hu was eating watermelon, and said while eating: "Xiaofang's grades have improved so much this year, I see it in my eyes, second aunt, you just put your heart in your stomach, you will definitely be able to pass the exam!"

The third aunt also persuaded: "Yes, didn't Xiaoyuan give her tutoring?" Definitely no problem. ”

Everyone persuaded one after another, and the tired spirit of the second aunt finally relaxed a lot.

"I'm just worried that she's too nervous, this kid will be nervous when it comes to the exam, and the questions that would have been wrong will end up wrong."

Today is the day when junior high school students take the secondary school examination, and it is also a fateful day for countless junior high school students from rural areas.

If you can't pass the exam, then I'm afraid you can only go home to the land of pang, facing the loess with your back to the sky, and a drop of sweat will drop eight petals.

Now unlike later generations, later generations of peasants can work, most of the peasants in this era can only rely on planting a little land, but also have to pay public grain, life is almost like a pool of stagnant water without waves, at a glance to the end.

After a long time, the second uncle finally picked up Wang Fang on a bicycle, the latter was wearing a patched blue cloth coat, black cloth pants, and a hand-sewn crossbody bag was a schoolbag.

Her face was tired.

"What's going on, what's the test?" The second aunt is the most eager.

The second uncle smiled: "I haven't scored a score just after the exam, why hurry?" The big guys are here, so let's have dinner together in the evening. ”

Everyone agreed, and then began to cook, the second uncle said that he came back with 10 catties of pork, put noodles, cabbage, tofu and so on to stew, enough for everyone to eat.

Smoke Bird Bird.

A few old ladies with good things in the tunzi came to inquire about the news, and wanted to know if Wang Fang had been admitted.

The second uncle walked into the house with the wooden halberd: "I haven't scored yet, anyway, the test is average, let's see when the score is out."

Hearing the word "general", the person who came to inquire about the news instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and then walked away in a hurry, and in the next few days, the word spread that Wangjiatun and the surrounding tunzi - Wang Fang was not admitted to the secondary school.

However, after half a month, Wang Fang's admission letter came down, which instantly aroused the envy and jealousy of a group of people.

Originally, everyone lived together in the countryside, and it was very fair and equal to be poor and poor, but some people had to go to the city with iron rice bowls.

The gap formed after the comparison made many people very painful, and then jealousy.

At night.

The little girl wanted to feed the big white cat a piece of meat, but the mother directly raised her face, and the frightened little girl "hummed" and then stuffed the piece of meat into her mouth.

Eat and drink enough, sit in the small courtyard of the second uncle's house to enjoy the coolness, chat, relaxed and comfortable.

The pigs in the pigsty occasionally chirped, and there were crickets around them, and when you looked up, you could see the stars in the sky, and time was flowing slowly, and even the heart seemed to be quiet.

Little girl, little flower, and little Leizi ran around, constantly making laughing and slapstick.

While the others were talking, Wang Yuan took the time to ask Wang Fang, "Xiaofang, how did you do in the exam?"

Wang Fang ate directly at night, and now he didn't want to move on the small bench at all: "It's okay, this year's questions seem to be simple and have been done anyway, thanks to the second brother, you tutored me."

"Haha, just do it, take a good rest for a few days, the devilish life is over."
