1977 year

This year, the word "test" completely washed away the dirty current of the uselessness of reading in those years, and blew a spring breeze of respect for knowledge and talent for the land that was waiting to be revived. For those who urgently need to use knowledge to change their fate, this is undoubtedly like a spring thunder that resounded in the sky on the hungry and thirsty land.

With a "snap", Du Wanling, who was sitting in the office, suddenly put down the newspaper in her hand, and could not hide the excitement in her heart at the moment, and the front page of the "People's Daily" in front of her read, "Resume the college entrance examination." ”

"Good, good, great! It's really a long drought and rain, just in time! Du Wanling, who was excited, picked up the phone and wanted to dial He Weiguo, who was far away in the provincial capital, but after hesitating for a long time, she put down the phone gently.

Since that violent quarrel, the next day He Weiguo left Longyou with the excuse of heavy work tasks, and the communication between the husband and wife was suspended again. Since then, communication has become scarcer due to greater geographical distances. Even if it is a contact, it is just a greeting around He Yi'an's lukewarm and matter-of-fact conversation.

Seeing this exciting news, Du Wanling couldn't sit still, and hurriedly went back to inform He Yi'an after work. As the deputy director of the Cultural Bureau, it is actually a fictitious position, with no real power and no anxious workload, which is in the hands of Du Wanling, who seeks stability and security.

It's not that she is content with the status quo and doesn't want to forge ahead, she has experienced too much turmoil, and her whole mentality has undergone earth-shaking changes, and secondly, her energy really can't keep up.

After waiting for work, Du Wanling hurriedly packed her things and rode back to her. When I passed by Xinhua Bookstore in Longyou City, I saw that the bookstore was crowded with people inside and outside, and even the road was blocked in half.

Du Wanling stopped the car and stepped forward suspiciously, and asked a middle-aged woman who was queuing, "Sister, what are you doing with so many people in line?" ”

The woman looked back and said in surprise: "You don't know, aren't all the newspapers out, the college entrance examination is resumed, no, everyone is here to grab the books." ”

"Grab a book? What kind of books are you grabbing? ”

"Of course, it's a textbook for the university entrance examination, and I also heard from others, saying that the Shanghai Science and Technology Publishing House has issued a set of review materials, oops! Forgot about ...... again."

A middle-aged male interface in front said: ""Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series, reprinted!" ”

"Oh, yes, yes, this is it! I'm also going to buy a set for my son, maybe I can really get in. The middle-aged woman looked anxiously at the long queue in front of her, and said worriedly: "Oh, there are too many people even today, don't be robbed." ”

This news seems to have been seen in the newspaper, and the "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series" organized by the Shanghai Science and Technology Publishing House was specially reprinted and distributed for the resumption of the college entrance examination.

Who would have thought that textbooks, which no one cared about in the past, would suddenly become a popular topic for everyone to compete for this year, and it also set off such a frenzied rush to buy.

Du Wanling stood on tiptoe and looked forward, and the person who had already bought the book in the distance was leaving with a smile on his face. After thinking about it, Du Wanling quickly parked her bicycle to the side and lined up behind her.

Waiting for the sun to set, Du Wanling luckily grabbed a set. When I came out of Xinhua Bookstore with a book in my hand, I couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in my heart.

Although He Yi'an's academic performance has always been among the best, wouldn't it be better to have an extra layer of protection? This is the first college entrance examination, there is no experience at all, and there are many candidates who have to face like a carp crossing the river, and the first admission rate is estimated to be not high, who has absolute certainty that they will definitely go to high school!

In fact, it is precisely because of this year's first college entrance examination, the number of participants was nearly 6 million, but the final admission was less than 300,000, and the acceptance rate was less than 5%.

The single-plank bridge is pitifully narrow.

hurried home to make a meal, and waited for He Yi'an to enter the door after a while. Du Wanling couldn't wait to step forward and excitedly told her son the good news.

"Yi'an, I'm back, come and sit, my mother made braised pork ribs for you. Yi'an, Mom has good news for you today. ”

Unexpectedly, He Yi'an responded calmly: "Is it the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination?" ”

Du Wanling said in surprise: "Oh? You know it all? ”

"Hmm!" He Yi'an nodded, his calm face was a little excited, and explained: "It has already spread on campus, and the teachers have talked about it in class today, and they also told us a lot about the situation of the enrollment school. ”

"Oh, that's right!" Du Wanling looked at He Yi'an's expression a little sluggish, and frowned: "What? Aren't you happy to hear such news? ”

He Yi'an sat down at the dinner table in a daze, and said listlessly: "Mom, it was originally my wish to go to university, and it would be better to have such an opportunity." It's just that...... It's just that I don't want to apply for those coastal universities recommended by my father. ”

I see, no wonder He Yi'an is melancholy!

Looking at his son's state, it is clear that he already has his own ideas. Du Wanling frowned and asked hesitantly, "What...... Do you have a specific idea? ”

"Hmm!" He Yi'an nodded silently and said worriedly: "I just want to be admitted to the university in Lanzhou, the capital of our province, you ...... Do you think so? ”

"Lanzhou! You...... Do you still want to stick to your ideas? ”

Du Wanling can see that He Yi'an still has not forgotten his original intention, and is still entangled in the Cheng family. In the past year, this issue has been discussed many times between mothers and sons, but there is no final conclusion.

"Hmm!" He Yi'an raised his head apprehensively and looked at Du Wanling expectantly: "You know, I don't want to take the test too far...... I think you can tell my dad about it. ”

In fact, I have long expected this result, don't look at He Yi'an's usual appearance of lowering his eyebrows and bowing his head, it depends on what is targeted. The idea of the heart is absolutely stubborn, harder than the stones on the Gobi Desert.

I don't have this stubbornness, is it influenced by Li Xiulan?

The expectations for He Yi'an are really giving Du Wanling a headache, this kind of thing can be discussed with He Weiguo? I am afraid that the topic is not opened, and it will make this already worrying family even more precarious.

The depressing atmosphere spread, Du Wanling sighed deeply, and said sadly: "Okay, I'll try to take a look." Yi'an, do you already have a goal of choosing a school? ”

"Well, I want sociology at Kaolan University."

"Sociology!" Du Wanling frowned and thought for a while, and asked, "Are you planning to enter politics in the future?" ”

He Yi'an said tepidly: "No, I'm just interested in these." Well, it should be easier to come out and find a job in the future. ”

Du Wanling's face was slightly condensed, and she stared at He Yi'an for a while: "You still plan to work in Longyou in the future......" Seeing He Yi'an bow his head and be silent, Du Wanling sighed faintly: "Hey, I guess it's the same!" It seems that you didn't even think about the ones your dad chose for you, right? ”

He Yi'an said hesitantly: "Mom, you know what I think. ”

There was silence between mother and son again, and He Yi'an's meaning was already very clear. Du Wanling knew in her heart that there was no point in continuing to dwell on this issue. Even if he is clever and can speak skillfully, it is difficult for He Yi'an to obey his words.

"Hey!" Du Wanling sighed and said tangledly: "Let's do this first, Yi'an, first prepare for the exam in a down-to-earth manner, let's put the rest down for the time being, and see that there are only a few days before the exam, and then the sprint will be more certain." By the way, here's the review material I bought for you. ”

"Oh?" Looking at the review materials in front of him, He Yi'an's eyes lit up and he lifted his spirit a little: ""Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series"! The teacher also recommended us to buy this set of books, Mom, thank you, don't worry, I will work hard, I will definitely be able to pass the exam. ”

"Well, mom is relieved!" Du Wanling nodded silently, and as soon as her voice changed, she advised: "Yi'an, I've been working hard lately, don't think about going back to the group field yet, and pull your energy back and forth." If you don't worry about your godfather's side, I'll give them a phone call to explain. ”

"Oh, then you say hello to them all for me, and tell them that I miss them so much......"

He Yi'an's expression was a little gloomy, and he said that he would go back and see more. But the plan can't keep up with the changes, and as soon as he arrives, Longyou is basically dragged down by the intense study.

In fact, the rumors of the resumption of the college entrance examination have already been released, and the students who are about to take the exam are eager to eat, drink, and rely on the campus. Moreover, the group field is also not close to Longyou, and there is no frequent means of transportation. So even if He Yi'an misses the sun, it is difficult to have a free opportunity to go back and see.

Du Wanling was a little absent-minded, with a sad look between her eyebrows, and said hesitantly: "Okay then...... I'll bring it. Well, would you like to call your dad too? He had his own phone over there, which was very convenient. ”

He Yi'an shook his head bluntly: "Don't do it, just hit it." ”

This is a "very natural" resistance and rejection, I don't know how He Weiguo will feel when he sees such He Yi'an!

The emotion of negligence does not need to be redeemed and remedied by a hundredfold heart-to-heart, and he doesn't even know what his son is thinking or needing at least, but he just imposes his will on the other party with wishful thinking, and he also flaunts "everything for whom".

Even if the reason and starting point are correct, the methods and methods are contrary to expectations. Rice can be stuffed, but cognition can't be forced. Is it a kind of self-righteous sorrow that results in such a different direction?

Du Wanling sighed secretly and remained silent for a long time......
