Liu Nian's heart has been put away, and he can gradually enjoy the fun of overcoming one problem after another. By the time of the last test before the high school entrance examination, Liu Nian was already seventeen or eighteen in the class, saying that he was seventeen or eighteen in the class, and it was also the ranking of the whole school, in fact, the good students in the third year of junior high school were concentrated in Liu Nian's class.

When he applied for volunteering, Sanjin unexpectedly reported a middle school. Lao Cai also felt that Sanjin was a good seedling, which was different from those old oilers, so he persuaded Sanjin to report for a middle school.

Unexpectedly, Lao Cai actually took it upon himself to report to Liu Nianye No. 1 Middle School, and also reported the list to the school. Lao Cai felt that Liu Nian's grades were not good, and he couldn't get into the secondary school, so it was better to take the first middle school exam.

As soon as the list was announced, Liu Nian was very anxious, and went to the principal's office after class: "Principal, I will change my application for the examination, I want to apply for a secondary school, and the head teacher will apply for a middle school for me." ”

The principal asked, "Why don't you report to No. 1 Middle School?" High school is even more promising! ”

"I've had enough school, and I think I'm going to be in school for three years like this. I was scared. I felt that I couldn't endure that hardship, and I couldn't persevere. Liu Nian told the principal what he really thought, and he really didn't think about what he had a future or not.

"Okay, I'll change it for you." The principal agreed.

So the high school was changed to a technical secondary school.

One month before the official high school entrance examination, the county organized a pre-qualification examination, and only students who passed the pre-selection were eligible to take the next official high school entrance examination.

If you can't even pass the pre-selection, even if you have no hope of secondary school, you can only choose to take a high school or go to a technical school.

Or don't give up and prepare to repeat the next year.

Or get a junior high school diploma and then end your student life for the rest of your life.

Liu Nian was very lucky in the preliminary examination, he was only one point higher than the score line, and he was shortlisted without danger. Lao Cai was quite surprised, he decided that Liu Nian would not be able to pass the secondary school examination, even if he was pre-selected by luck this time, he would definitely brush it down during the high school entrance examination.

Liu Nian felt disdain from Lao Cai's expression and tone. Most of the students are not optimistic about Liu Nian, after all, Liu Nian's results are at the bottom of this batch of students who are admitted to the secondary school.

When filling in the school application form. Those hot public security railways, post and telecommunications schools, Liu Nianlian didn't dare to consider them, and even his favorite geological school was dissuaded by his sister.

My sister said, "What are you doing with that yellow child?" Working in the field every day, I was tanned, running around, I was not at home all year round, and I couldn't even find a daughter-in-law. "In fact, my sister's words played a certain role, but the most important thing is that the scores required by the geology school are also high, Liu Nian feels that even if he can be admitted to the secondary school, it is estimated that he is still at the bottom.

As for the normal school, although the teacher's children will be taken care of in terms of scores, Liu Nian said that he didn't want to be a teacher, watching his father teach for half his life, what is the benefit, and he can't farm the same land!

The three-foot podium can imprison your dreams.

Looking at the wages of Na Ling, it is a joke, except that it is a little better than the farmers who farm, who can compare with it? The common people shouted one by one, but in fact, there was no way to earn less! The second brother Liu of a village works in a coal mine, and his salary is one or two thousand a month, and his father uses the land to arrange the things at the end of the year to pull them home. Although the people in the village are called coal blacks, who doesn't have hot eyes?

When Liu Nian was still hesitating and struggling to choose what school to apply for, Lao Cai took it upon himself to apply for Liu Nian to Jiyang Industrial School.

It's not enough to just listen to the name of the school, everyone calls it a financial school, a water conservancy school or something, it sounds high, this is directly an industrial school, and the secondary school stipulated by the state is a 24-level cadre, which directly hits the workers.

Lao Cai's meaning is very clear, even good schools can't pass the exam, and the scores of bad schools will not be lost. In fact, Lao Cai didn't say that Liu Nian, the secondary school, is estimated to be unable to pass the exam. Although Liu Nian was not happy, thinking about his score, he acquiesced.

Kong Xiaorong enrolled in a normal school, and it is not bad for a girl to be a teacher, and she should have a job steadily, which is also what Kong Xiaorong's father wants. Jiang Jingzhi's most interesting first choice was the agricultural school he applied for, and the second choice was the health school that he applied for. Many students heard about this kind of major for the first time, and the male classmates laughed, and the female classmates blushed.

Time is getting farther and closer to the official high school entrance examination, and although the study is more intense, Liu Nian has long been preparing to fight against the water, but his heart is very relaxed, and there is no pressure of the high school entrance examination.

Lao Cai shouted the countdown every day until the bus arranged by the school drove into the campus.

The bus swayed again and pulled the students to the Mengyuan County Guest House.

Liu Nian happened to be in the same room with Shi Guoqiang and Zhou Xinmin.

This is the first time Liu Nianping has lived in a hotel in his life, the dark red carpet is spread all over every corner of the room, the white sheets exude the fragrance of soap, and the soft mattress collapses when he sits on it.

There was a fan on the wall that shook its head, a color TV on the table, and a new shiny stainless steel kettle and two ceramic teacups with lids in each room.

The key is that this pot teacup is the same as the mayor's office, Liu Nian used to follow his father to the town to hold a Teacher's Day meeting, and he saw it from the door of the mayor's office.

All this is so new to Liu Nian, this rural child who has never been to Dalian County a few times since he was a child is lying on the bed in the county guest house today! Just hearing the name makes me feel like "Mengyuan County Guest House"! It must be the place to entertain the leaders of Mengyuan County! Is there a more advanced place in the entire county?

Liu Nian lay on the bed and thoroughly enjoyed it, and then couldn't help but be curious and ran to Kong Xiaorong's room to take a turn. The two rooms were exactly the same, Kong Xiaorong was sitting on the carpet, hugging her knees and leaning against the bed to watch TV.

The two glanced at each other, and Liu Nian said with a smile: "It's just you, don't sit on the bed, sit on the ground and watch TV." ”

Kong Xiaorong also smiled: "Don't you too, don't stay in the room to rest and wander around." Don't hurry up and learn to learn? ”

"It's useless, I haven't brought any review materials, so I have to relax completely." Liu Nian said as he made a relaxed posture.

"Come on." Kong Xiaorong said with a slight smile.

Liu Nian chatted with Kong Xiaorong for a few more words, and felt that it was inconvenient to stay for a long time, so he said, "Then I'll go to other rooms to have a look!" Let's go!" Liu Nian staggered to the next room again.

A new day begins, just as the old fortune said that the mule is a horse, and it's time to pull it out and slip away.

The examination room is located in a middle school, two or three miles away from the guest house, about one or twenty minutes away. The students who got up early simply ate two fritters and drank a bowl of soy milk in the guest house, and then walked to the examination room.

Most of the students who traveled on the road were students who came to take the exam, and they were all from the countryside to see how they dressed.

These peasant children are about to set foot on the battlefield with dreams of changing their fate.

"There is Yan Ruyu in the book, and there is a golden house in the book", but if they can't pass this exam, they will only have a lot of luck in their lives.

After such a long time of studying black and white, Liu Nian never felt that it was so relaxed now. Every time Liu Nian gets out of the examination room, he doesn't think about anything, whether it's right or wrong, what he wants is to feel good about himself.

In the scorching sun of July, Liu Nian couldn't feel the heat, just full of excitement.

After the first day's exam, after eating at the guest house, Liu Nian also shouted Zhou Xinmin and Shi Guoqiang to visit the county department store.

Three rural children with dull faces and some malnutrition were dressed in old, dirty, old clothes, which were so out of place for the fair-skinned and well-dressed city people.

Those high-end decoration and brightly lit clothing stores, Liu Nian and they didn't dare to walk in to take a look at them when they swept through the door, those prices that were unattainable from above, and the expressionless eyes of the salesmen frightened them so much that they could only stay away.

They are very weak and afraid of being ridiculed, so they don't go closer, which is the inferiority and self-esteem of rural children.

However, although they couldn't afford anything, this did not prevent Liu Nian from being happy at this time.
