Chapter 1: Eccentric Parents

Next Chapter

Under the drizzle, Ji Ling jumped off the Jiefang truck.

In mid-July, the summer temperature in H province was not high, and after five days of rain, the temperature plummeted.

A gust of wind blew, and Ji Ling's soaked body couldn't help but shiver.

She hugged the plastic wrap in her arms and walked quickly into the hostel behind her classmates.

There was no examination room in Beixian County, so the school rented a truck and pulled the eighteen students who took the college entrance examination into Beishi a day earlier.

The day before, the school found a hostel near the examination room, and there were eight bunks in one room, plus the principal and teachers, and three rooms were chartered.

"Ji Ling, aren't you going to your grandfather's house? Your sister is also taking the college entrance examination this year, right? Tian Jing poked her head out and looked at the upper bunk.

Ji Ling only replied to the previous question, "The exam is tomorrow, and I want to review the knowledge points again." ”

"You're unlucky enough, repeating your studies for two years, and then encountering a total score of 100 in English."

Ma Hui took over, "It's that many of us are suffering. Last year, the total score of English was 70 points, and this year it was mentioned that 100 points, compared with the city schools, people learn English in junior high school, and we only learn it in high school, and we all suffer in English. ”

Tian Jing and Ma Hui and Ji Ling are in a family home, and their parents are both workers in an agricultural machinery company.

The original owner was arrogant and felt that his grandfather was the architect of the Provincial Architectural Institute, so he never interacted with the people in the family courtyard, after Ji Ling passed through, she was gentle and quiet, although she did not take the initiative to get along with people, and did not put on a posture of not approaching people, Tian Jing and Ma Hui had contact several times, and Ji Ling also had contacts.

The conversation between the three of them aroused the voices of several other girls in the room.

You and I said one sentence at a time, and they talked nonsense.

Ji Ling, who was on the top bunk, stared at the book in her hand, her mind a little empty.

Even though it has been half a month since I crossed into this body, sometimes it still feels like a dream.

After Ji Ling was hit by a car and died, she traveled to a person with the same name and surname, from a woman in the new era of the twentieth century to an unfilial daughter who repeated and retook the college entrance examination and made the whole family unstable.

What subverts Ji Ling's three views even more is that there are still a few months to take the college entrance examination, the original owner does not want to take the college entrance examination, and wants to enter the city architectural institute as a clerk, her father bowed his head for her and begged her father-in-law, and she didn't even enter the family home.

Ji Ling is a pragmatic person, she firmly believes that no matter what era, reading can change fate, through the past half a month, she doesn't care about Ji's mother's neglect, and uses the shortest time to pick up the things in the books.

Speaking of which, she was the top liberal arts student in the college entrance examination in '84, and she was deeply impressed by the college entrance examination questions in '83, and she founded a financial company a few years after graduating from university, and the books have never been thrown down, and she has half a month to prepare, so she is not nervous.

In the evening, the principal and the teacher took the eighteen students to the restaurant next to the hostel to eat beef noodles, and after the meal, they went to the outside of the examination room to familiarize themselves, and then went back to the hostel early to rest.

In 83, the college entrance examination was three days, the first day was Chinese in the morning, chemistry and geography in the afternoon, and there was no mistake in the knowledge reviewed by Ji Ling, mathematics in the morning on the second day, political biology in the afternoon, Ji Ling felt that she would lose some points in politics, and on the last day, physics and history in the morning, English in the afternoon, she easily passed the test.

She and Tian Jing were in an examination room, and the two walked out together.

After the college entrance examination, everyone dared to discuss the answers.

Tian Jing looked dish, "The seventh question of English is according to the given Chinese characters, and I have not made any of them, and I have not made any of them, and I have also been blinded by reading and filling in the words of the eighth question, and the sentence pattern conversion of the fourth question is not good, and the first question is according to the vowels...."

Ma Hui also ran over and discussed with Tian Jing.

At this time, Ji Ling heard someone calling her.

A young man stood across the street, wearing a white shirt with half-rolled sleeves, blue khaki pants, and green rubber shoes on his feet.

After looking at the clothes, her eyes fell on the other party's face again, with a square face and big eyes, and she looked quite handsome.

But, I don't know.

"Ji Ling, it's your eldest brother." Tian Jing and Ma Hui beside him reminded Ji Ling.

Ji Ling: .....

β€”β€”β€”β€”

More than 20 minutes later, the college entrance examination students dispersed, and the two brothers and sisters were still standing on the side of the road where Ji Jianhua had just waited.

"I only came back at noon today from a business trip, and I didn't receive a call from my dad to the factory." Ji Jianhua first explained why he appeared at this time, and his tone was quite cold, "I happened to go home today, where are your things?" Let's go together. ”

There are three children in the Ji family, Ji Jianhua is the eldest, twenty-three years old this year, repairing cars in a metal repair factory, Ji Ling is the second, and there is a nineteen-year-old Ji Ke below, who was raised in his grandfather Xu's house when he was three years old.

The original owner is strong, and he is always a demon when he has nothing to do, Ji Jianhua prefers to raise the second sister who is sensible in his grandfather's house in the city.

A person works in the city, and as the eldest son in the family, he will naturally not hide family affairs from him.

Therefore, the relationship between the brother and sister is not very good, and even when something happens, Ji Jianhua stands directly on the side of the second sister without asking the reason.

Ji Ling refused in disguise, "Big brother, the principal said that everyone should go to take graduation photos together, and then go back together in a truck." ”

Ji Jianhua still said, "Then I'll wait for you to finish taking photos and go together." ”

"Okay." Ji Ling didn't refute again.

Although I don't understand why I don't like her and still insist on walking with her, Ji Ling didn't ask much.

After that, Ji Ling took her eldest brother to meet everyone, and the graduation photo was taken in a photo studio across the street, with the principal and teacher sitting in the middle, with girls on both sides and male classmates in the back row.

After the shooting, the classmates with a good relationship took pictures alone, Ji Ling and her classmates were not close, and only took a photo with Ma Hui and Tian Jing, and when the money was paid, Ji Jianhua had already paid it on behalf of Ji Ling over there.

Ji Ling thought to herself that although this eldest brother had a bad relationship with her, he was still like a big brother, so it was okay.

When she came out of the house, Ji's father gave Ji Ling ten yuan, minus one yuan a day in the hostel, six cents a bowl of beef noodles, three cents for a bun and a bowl of soy milk for breakfast, and spent four yuan and five yuan in three days, and now she still has a 'huge amount of money' of five cents left in her pocket.

You must know that Ji's father's monthly salary is only forty-eight yuan and six, and Ji Ling came out to take the exam for three days and gave ten yuan, which is already a lot of money.

Ji Ling sighed, it seems that in any era, making money is a big deal.

She sighed, Ji Jianhua misunderstood, "If you don't do well in the exam, forget it, the watch factory is recruiting workers this year, and it will be easy for you to graduate from high school and get in." ”

"We'll talk about it then." Ji Ling said perfunctorily and didn't explain much.

Ji Jianhua drove the factory's car, although he was repairing cars in the factory, it was very hard to go to other places, and there were many business trips, this time he went home to borrow a car from the factory, and the factory agreed.

Beixian County is not big, four streets, Ji's father runs sales in Fuhe Agricultural Machinery Distribution Company, so Ji's family lives in Fuhe Family Courtyard behind the distribution company.

After coming from the city to the county at five o'clock in the afternoon, it was almost nine o'clock when the brother and sister arrived home.

Ji Ling walked last, and one second she was still listening to Xu Fang and her son talking, 'Jianhua is back', and the atmosphere changed the next second.

Just listen to the 'click'.

Ji Ling looked up.

Xu Fang threw the broom at the door, glared at her fiercely, and turned into the house.

"Your mother is arguing with customers in the store today, and she is in a bad mood, so it's not right for you." Hearing the movement, Ji's father ran out of the house, still holding a shovel for stir-frying, and beckoned his son and daughter into the house with a smile, "Xiaoling, come into the house, Dad made you braised pork." ”

I saw that Ji's father used a sentence of 'you' to paint the peace.

Ji Ling remembered her life, she was also an eccentric parent, but fortunately, there was a person in this family who really loved the original owner.

The Ji family has three rooms, with a kitchen in the middle and a bedroom on each side, but the children of the Ji family are older, and a small north house is separated from the back for the children to live in, one of which is Ji Ling's.

In the main house in front, Ji Yong and his wife live in the east house, and the west house is reserved for Ji Ke, the youngest daughter who does not often go home to live in the Xu family.

The house is not soundproofed, and when the door is closed, you can still hear the front room talking.

"I said I can't get used to it, the more accustomed the more unseemly, the college entrance examination repeats for two years, and I am about to take the exam and enter the architectural institute, your father has not bowed his head in front of your grandfather all these years, for her first time to ask for someone, but the door did not enter, at the gate of the family courtyard for a day of rain, we are all lost, want to be a out... You see that she came back today without making any noise or noise, and you can guess that she didn't do well in the exam without asking. ”

"Mom, don't be angry, I see that after this matter, Reiko is much more sensible." Coming back all the way, Ji Jianhua observed and discovered this.

"Forget it, I'm angry when I mention her, she's here to collect debts." The son only came back once in a few months, and Xu Fang didn't want to anger the little Yama King, making the house noisy and noisy, so he pulled his son to look up, "I'm thin, I didn't rest on a business trip, okay?" No, talk to the factory, and let others go on a business trip in the future. ”

"Mom, it's good to be on a business trip, you can see the outside world, you don't know how fast the south is developing, look at what I bought for you and come back."

"How much does this cost?"

"It's not expensive, it's cheap in the south, and I have a month's salary."

"Spending money indiscriminately, I don't know how hard you work at work, my mother didn't see any good things when she was young, and she is not allowed to buy them in the future."

"During these business trips, my colleagues and I also poured some things back and sold them, and now I have money in my hands."

When the family had dinner, Ji Ling saw the gold ring on Xu Fang's ring finger.

But because of her appearance, Xu Fang's face tensed again.

Ji Ling has no feelings for the original owner's family, so their attitude will not affect her, she eats quietly, and when she goes to college, she can naturally leave the Ji family justifiably and live the small life she wants.

"Eat more meat, you love sweetness, and you deliberately put more sugar." Ji Yong put a piece of braised pork in his daughter's bowl.

"Thank you, Dad." Ji Ling smiled.

After dinner, Ji Ling helped Ji Yong clean up the table and planned to go back to his cabin, but was called to the East House by Ji Yong.

This is something to say, otherwise Ji Yong would not let her stay with Xu Fang longer.

A family of four sat down, Xu Fang said, "You can prepare for it in the past few days, the zipper factory recruits, you have no problem graduating from high school and taking a clerical job in the factory, you can work with peace of mind after work, don't think about something that you don't have." ”

As the clichΓ© goes, for the past half a month, Ji Ling can hear such words every day, and she doesn't want to say more.

The processing method is also simple, one word: drag.

Then he said as usual, "Let's talk about it then." ”

Xu Fang's face darkened a little with anger.

She was born in an intellectual family, and she was highly educated, and when she was young, she worked as a singer in the province because of her sweet voice, and she was gentle, even if she was unhappy, she would not scold anyone.

Back then, Xu Fang went to the countryside to perform, and the handsome Ji Yong was in the picture, but Ji Yong was just an ordinary worker, Xu Fang's parents did not agree, so she cut off contact with her parents for this reason, and married from Beishi to the small county town of Beixian, and the department store in Beixian recruited workers, and she was admitted to work as a salesperson.

The appearance of the original owner combines the advantages of his parents, pure and clean, a pair of Danfeng eyes seem to be forever covered with a layer of mist, and his voice follows Xu Fang.

After Ji Ling came through, her temperament was already gentle and quiet, so her voice became sweet and soft, and there were two small dimples at the corners of her mouth when she smiled, which was cute and simple.

In the past, the pinching was strong, and the mother and daughter were incompatible, but now they can't quarrel, Xu Fang only feels that the evil fire in her heart is even stronger.

In the end, he was stunned and held back a foul word: Get out.

We ended our conversation for the evening.
