"Taogu, get up! Look, when is it, if you don't leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch the bus. ”

The sound of spring flowers smashed down from the roof, pulling Zhang Tao out of his dream.

Zhang Tao had actually woken up a long time ago.

He opened his eyes wide and counted the mosquitoes attached to the net.

I have counted them hundreds of times, and what miracles have I counted?

Mosquitoes sometimes fly up, sometimes pounce down.

Mosquitoes are free and happy.

Maybe you're not as good as a mosquito.

Sweet dreams always have to wake up, and escape has to be faced.

Zhang Tao turned over on the bed, but still didn't get up. His mind was a mess and full of unknowns.

"You are really, on such a big day as the college entrance examination today, you don't get up early to go to school to see the news."

"The whole family can't wait, just like you're nothing."

"You see that your father is so happy, yesterday I asked your uncle, uncle, and a few colleagues from his school to come to the house for a few drinks today, and I didn't expect you to bring the good news as soon as possible!"

Chunhua's face was full of love and continued to nag.

"Hurry up! I cooked breakfast and went! After saying that, she walked "pedaling" to the stove house.

Yes! Today is the day when the results of the college entrance examination will be released. The result was that the donkey was a horse, and it was clear after a few hours.

Zhang Tao was firmly grasped by an inexplicable panic. He felt that all his strength was drained by this panic, and it was extremely difficult to even get up.

His eyes were straight and fell on the mosquitoes again.

How do these mosquitoes get in? How much blood did they suck last night?

The mosquito ignored his doubts and continued to fly and fall as if no one was around.

They seem to regard mosquito nets as happy homes, and they are the bacon or carrion on their boards.

A ray of sunlight shines in through the window, so brilliant and vivid.

He couldn't help but reach for it.

Holding the sunshine, feeling the heaviness.

The splendor of the sun also turned into a blood-red.

"Brother, eat quickly! Eat the title of the gold list! Meng Lan urged.

A bowl of hot sweet sake lees, with two red-painted eggs and eight red dates, is a profound metaphor for the love and blessing of the whole family.

Zhang Tao was worried in his heart, his hand holding the bowl trembled slightly, and his eyes were slightly moist.

"Brother, I wish you high school!"

Meng Fei was standing beside Zhang Tao, eating a bowl of sweet potato porridge, her eyes full of joy and blessings.

"Sister Fei, don't go today, stay at home and wait for your brother's good news!" Chunhua suggested.

"I made an appointment with a few sisters in the village yesterday."

After a pause, Meng Fei said again, "I'll go home two hours early." ”

Meng Fei went to the coal mine to work as a porter to earn a little money and subsidize the family.

The coal mine is located in the deep mountains and old forests, and it is an illegal small coal kiln.

It has no roads, and the coal it produces has to be transported by manpower.

The porter walked along a sheep's intestine path, crossed the mountains and mountains, traveled more than ten miles, and picked up the coal flat on the side of the road.

Every 100 catties of coal is worth five dimes, and you can earn five or six yuan a day.

I have to go early in the morning, and I don't come back until dark, and I will be tired and half dead.

Zhang Tao also often goes to pick during the winter and summer vacations, and knows its suffering.

Looking at Meng Fei's back carrying the basket away, Zhang Tao couldn't help but let out a long sigh that was uncontrollable.

Last year, Meng Fei was in the third year of junior high school, Meng Lan was in the first year of junior high school, and Zhang Tao was in the second year of high school.

His hometown was hit by droughts and floods, and his poultry were plagued.

The family can't eat enough, and there is no way to provide for the three of them to study at the same time.

Zhang Tao is the hope of his family to go to university. The little sister is small and frail, and dropping out of school can't help much.

Meng Fei had to drop out of school in tears.

After dropping out of school, Meng Fei, who has always been lively and cheerful, said little, rarely had a smile on her face, and just worked hard every day.

This incident has always been a hidden pain for the whole family. The whole family will always be as careful as a landmine to avoid the topic of this matter.

Every time he went home, Zhang Tao didn't dare to talk to Meng Fei at all, and he didn't dare to look at her sad and desperate eyes.

He felt that he was the culprit who had plunged his family into poverty and his eldest sister dropping out of school.

For a long time, the old and tired figures of his parents overwhelmed Zhang Tao and overwhelmed him.

Now, Meng Fei's sad eyes, like a poisonous whip, beat his conscience from time to time, making him unable to hide and in pain

"Taogu, you can use this money! Buy something for your teacher, or get together with your classmates who have a good relationship with you. ”

When Zhang Tao buried his head in eating eggs, Chunhua fumbled, took out a handful of money from his pocket and stuffed it into his hand.

"Taogu, you must be cautious when filling in the volunteers, and listen to the teacher's advice." Renlong solemnly instructed.

Renlong is a small village private teacher, who spends most of his time at school every day, but his salary is only more than 30 yuan.

As a result, the burden of the family basically fell on Chunhua.

In order to increase some income, feed the family of five and provide education for the children, Chunhua had to get up early and work tirelessly in the dark.

In addition to her own land, she also rents other people's land.

She planted 6 acres of rice fields, 5 acres of peppers, and 4 acres of vegetable fields almost by herself.

The family is fed a pig, three pigs and a large flock of chickens and ducks, and nearly 20 acres of camellia forests are also taken care of.

Such a seemingly impossible task, Chunhua gritted her teeth and persevered until now.

"What if I don't make the list?"

Panic hit Zhang Tao's heart again.

"In this situation at home, can you still support yourself to continue to study?"

Meng Fei is only sixteen years old, which is the age of flowers.

Why can I destroy her flowery years and bright future for the so-called college dream?

In Zhang Tao's plan, as long as he is admitted to university, he will work and study and take the road of self-reliance.

Meng Fei must return to school. The two younger sisters go to school, and the family is tight, and it is estimated that they can afford it.

However, if he fails to repeat the list, this idea will be difficult to realize.

This also means that before Mengfei graduated from junior high school, she had to step into society and wave goodbye to her ideals.

What a cruel thing this is!

The pain in Zhang Tao's heart set off a monstrous wave and beat him to the ground.

Chunhua obviously caught the nervousness in Zhang Tao's heart and comforted, "Don't worry! Taogu, I will definitely be in high school this year! ”

Early in the morning, Renlong poured himself a glass of wine, saying that today was a happy day and he should congratulate his son in advance.

"Taogu, don't be burdened, even if—" he interjected.

"Phew!" Ren-woo's words were immediately interrupted by Haruka.

She exasperated, "You drunkard, can you say something nice?" ”

Surrounded by the warmth and blessings of his family, Zhang Tao buried his head in eating the sweet wine, eggs, and red dates in the bowl.

Cheer yourself up, this year will definitely be high school!

When they left home, the whole family lined up to say goodbye.

"Brother, I wish high school!" The two younger sisters shouted for joy.

With the blessing of his family, along the path in the village that leads to the outside world, Zhang Tao buried his head and ran quickly.

Panic and worry held him firmly, only behind him, and then to the front.

Zhang Tao ran a little hard, and had to gasp for breath, running and stopping.

He knows how well he did in the college entrance examination.

Unexpected mistakes, too many, too big!

Therefore, he is not at all sure about the title of this gold list.

As soon as the exam was over, he left the school despite his brothers' forced stay.

The events of the day he left school, like a movie, flashed in Zhang Tao's mind again.

The three days of the college entrance examination are really painful days.

This is not! Zhang Tao, who came out of the examination room, looked a little tired and lonely, as if he had suffered some great trauma in his feelings, or had just finished rushing ashore under the scorching sun.

"Brother Tao!" "Brother Tao is good!"

At school, Brother Tao was so famous that there were almost no people who didn't know him.

With his head down, he avoided the crowds, bypassed the garden path, and walked out.

But there are still many fans who keep greeting him, with enthusiasm and smiles on their faces, as if they are old acquaintances.

It's fucking hard to be a celebrity.

At the school gate, security guard Liu Quan stood there and greeted Zhang Tao with a smile, "Brother Tao, the exam is over!" ”

Zhang Tao let out an absent-hearted "oh".

Liu Quan then said flatteringly: "Brother Tao, your brothers are waiting for you outside." ”

With that, he pursed outside.

"Brother Tao!"

Most of the brothers of the Ten Fingers Gang have already come out and are standing at the gate waiting for Zhang Tao.

As soon as they saw the boss, they gathered around.

"Brother Tao, how did you do in the exam?" Wang Meng shouted with a big grin.

is still such a sentence, which makes Zhang Tao hate it, and he doesn't want to hear it or answer it the most.

"It's okay!" Zhang Tao replied lightly, with a faint smile on his face.

"Needless to say! Who is Brother Tao? ”

"That's a top 50 character in a middle school. This time it's at least a heavy foundation, and it may even be one of the top ten schools! The fat man He Zhiping boasted.

"That's true, as long as Brother Tao plays normally, he should have the strength to impact the top ten famous schools." Old Li Fan nodded in agreement.

"Let's go! Walk! Drink and go! ”

Mengzi grabbed Zhang Tao's hand and said excitedly: "Congratulations in advance for our boss!" ”
