Ye Lingtian looked at everyone and asked with a surprised expression, "Teacher Yang, Principal Gao, why are you here?"

Mitsui Village is still more than ten miles away from the town, why do so many people come all the way to this small mountain village?

"You're Ye Lingtian, right? A lot of congratulations to you! Huh, you are carrying a bag, are you going out?" The middle-aged man with a very calm momentum, wearing black-framed glasses and carrying a black briefcase in his hand said to Ye Lingtian with a smile.

Ye Lingtian looked at this person, and at the same time searched the memories in his mind, but did not find the impression of this person, and asked suspiciously, "I am Ye Lingtian, are you?"

Seeing this, Teacher Yang hurriedly reminded behind: "Ye Lingtian, this is Director Wang of the County Education Bureau. Why don't you invite Director Wang into the house to sit?"

"Oh, Director Wang, President Gao, Teacher Yang, everyone, please. "Director Wang of the Education Bureau, listening to Teacher Yang's words, Ye Lingtian's heart tightened, and he faintly sensed the intention of these people, and hurriedly invited everyone into the hall.

At this time, Yang Sulan also reacted, and was busy moving stools to pour tea and water, but she couldn't get any tea fruits.

Since Ye Liancheng died in a car accident, there have been fewer guests at home, and basically no one has come to visit the house all year round. In addition, the family background is already difficult, except for the New Year's holidays, tea and fruits are rarely prepared on other days.

"Director Wang, Principal Gao, Teacher Yang, you don't know you're coming, and there is nothing to prepare at home, so let the leaders see the jokes. Yang Sulan looked embarrassed, turned her head to Ye Lingtian and said, "Ling Tian, go to the village store to buy some candy for tea." ”

"Don't be so polite! Ye Lingtian, you sit down first. Director Wang stopped Ye Lingtian, who was about to buy candy, and said to Yang Sulan with a smile on his face: "You are Ye Lingtian's mother, right?

"Good seedling?" Yang Sulan looked at Director Wang with a smile on her face suspiciously, and was confused by this unprovoked congratulations for a while, and her face was full of puzzlement.

Director Wang tapped his fingers lightly on the table and said excitedly: "Well, it seems that you may not know it, but your son Ye Lingtian is the top liberal arts student in this year's national college entrance examination and has been admitted to Yenching University! This is not only the glory of your family, but also the glory of our Guixing County! I have made a special trip to congratulate you this time on the entrustment of Secretary Cheng of the county party committee!"

"The top student in the national college entrance examination?Yenching University?" Yang Sulan was frightened by the sudden surprise, and said with a surprised face: "Is this true?

Director Wang's face immediately sank when he heard this, he turned his head to look at Principal Gao and Teacher Yang beside him, and asked sternly, "Didn't get in? What the hell is going on, huh?"

"How could it be? Ye Lingtian, the admission letter from Yenching University was given to you by myself, how can you say that you didn't get in?" Teacher Yang's face turned pale, and he hurriedly asked Ye Lingtian, and at the same time explained to Director Wang.

"I ...... I ......" In front of so many people, Ye Lingtian was unspeakable.

As the saying goes, the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, and if you give up going to college because of your poor family, you will not only be laughed at, but also looked down upon.

Seeing that Ye Lingtian was hesitant, Teacher Yang also took out the head teacher's shelf and asked sternly, "What am I, what the hell is going on?"

was really forced to have no choice, Ye Lingtian simply let go, took a deep breath and said: "I didn't tell my mother the truth because I have no money at home, not only do I have no money, but I also owe a lot of money to others. ”

After a pause, Ye Lingtian continued: "I don't want my mother to continue to work so hard, look at my mother, she is only in her early forties this year, but she looks like she is sixty years old. This is all tired in the past few years after my father's death in order to support the family and let me go to school. So I hid my mom about being admitted to Yenching University, and I decided not to go to college, but to work to earn money, share my mother's burden, and help the family pay off their debts. ”

As soon as Ye Lingtian finished speaking, the whole room was silent, or it could be said that he was stunned.

"Ling Tian, you bastard, you have a lot of ability, you dare to lie to your mother, ah? You know that your father's greatest wish is to hope that you can be admitted to college, and your dream has always been to go to college, but now that you have been admitted, why should you give up! Mom will let you finish college no matter how hard and tired you are!" Yang Sulan's face sank, and a wave of anger suddenly rose in her heart. ...,

She didn't expect her son, who has been obedient and sensible since she was a child, to dare to lie to her, and it was such a big thing as going to college.

"Mom, don't be angry, in the past few years, in order to support this family, in order to provide for me to go to school, you see how tired you have become! If you continue like this, I don't know how long you can last long! I have no father, I can't lose my mother again! The debts I owe to others must be repaid after all, I go out to work to earn money, and I can pay off a little bit by earning a little, and my heart will be a little more steady. ”

Seeing Yang Sulan's anger, Ye Lingtian couldn't help but feel a little weak, and had the courage to explain.

There was a sudden silence in the room, and the atmosphere became a little dreary.

After a while, Director Wang broke the silence, coughed dryly, pointed to Ye Lingtian's mountaineering bag and asked, "Classmate Ye Lingtian, it seems that you are going out to work with this bag on your back?"

Ye Lingtian looked at Director Wang and didn't answer, just nodded silently.

Seeing Ye Lingtian nodding in acquiescence, Director Wang pondered for a moment and said solemnly: "I didn't expect that Ye Lingtian's family background is so difficult, and the top students in the national college entrance examination will be reduced to the point of abandoning school to work, this is the dereliction of duty of our educators! If we don't come today, what a big mistake we will make, and the country will lose a pillar of talent!"

Then he took a look at the house, which was a little dilapidated due to disrepair, Director Wang lifted his glasses, and said to a few people behind him seriously: "Who would have thought that the top student in the national college entrance examination would grow up in such an environment, and adversity produces talents!"

The few people who came with Director Wang were also very shocked in their hearts, and they lowered their heads when Director Wang said this.

Especially Teacher Yang, as Ye Lingtian's head teacher, he didn't know his family background at all, his face couldn't help but flush slightly, and he said with some shame: "Director Wang is right, it's because we didn't do our job well!"

Principal Gao also said sincerely: "After we go back, we will definitely hold a special meeting to formulate a set of plans, and carry out a thorough investigation of the students in the school, and we will never make similar mistakes again." ”...... ，
