Time carved for no reason

Chapter 16 Chapter Three (1)
Many days have passed, and it seems that it is time to check the score. Before the college entrance examination, time is the torture caused by stomach problems, and it crawls through my body; after the college entrance examination, time is a spaceship, and I can only feel its existence from intuition , Xueqian dare not contact others, Wen Xuan, Meng Zhou, needless to say, they probably have reconciled, right?Are you happy to stay together?I may be just a small episode, appearing at the wrong time, wrong place, meeting the wrong person, acting out a mistake together, but Wenxuan didn't make this mistake completely, so the responsibility for this mistake is all on her own undertook.Cao Yuan may still remember the day I sold him, right?Wen Bin also liked He Wenxuan, so he must have looked down on him too. He used to talk about He Wenxuan in front of Wen Bin, jokingly saying that she was Meng Zhou's daughter-in-law.It was really unkind of me to be happy with Wen Bin at that time, he would definitely laugh at myself.Forget it, don't contact me anymore.

Wen's mother was surprised that her son did not go out to play wildly with his classmates after the college entrance examination. She guessed that her son did not do well in the exam and was depressed. She also knew that her son's mental state was not good. Qian: "It's okay, if you don't do well in the exam, forget it, just work hard, so you can be worthy of yourself." Xueqian didn't feel uncomfortable for the exam, and said perfunctorily: "Got it." Seeing Xueqian's appearance, Wen's mother was very anxious, and Xueqian Qian only sleeps and plays computer games. Wen's mother told Wen's father about it, and Wen's father, the head of the family, was helpless. He just asked his wife to keep an eye on his son and keep him away from the window sill.

The 25th arrived as scheduled, but Xueqian was not nervous anymore. He didn't know that his composition had strayed off topic, and he didn't think about how many mistakes he made in mathematics and English. Cao Yuan called Xueqian in the morning and never mentioned that night He just kept complaining: "Damn it, damn it, I made ten mistakes in my English reading, it's over, that boy Meng Zhou still showed me off, saying he was right in one, damn it." Xueqian listened When he mentioned Meng Zhou, he felt uncomfortable and ashamed.Cao Yuan made ten mistakes, so there is no doubt that I did worse than Cao Yuan in the exam. Forget it, I will repeat the study for another year, and I will be a hero in the next year. I suddenly thought of the sentence Ah Q shouted before his execution in the high school text. Another hero after 20 years."Thinking about it, I feel sick for a while, and I feel that this is an appropriate analogy. In the contradiction, the morning passed.

The clock at Xueqian’s house is one year older than Xueqian’s. It was bought when Wen’s parents saved money when they got married. The square metal frame has thick rust on the surface, and the hands have become lazy. Take a step, but fortunately it is slow and regular, so that you can avoid the disaster of being laid off and waiting for work. It is true that 6 o'clock is 12 o'clock. Father Wen often looks at this clock lovingly, "After all, it is the commemoration of the marriage that year. How many years have passed? I changed the house, but I still haven’t lost it, probably because I don’t want to part with me.” The tone of the old man who has experienced many vicissitudes.

Seeing that it was 12 o'clock, and the clock was halfway through, Xueqian was still lying on the sofa with a blank expression on his face. Wen's father knew that Xueqian's composition was off topic, and he was furious. It’s as ridiculous as Jordan’s son was born with paralyzed hands and Guo Degang’s son was born stuttering.Father Wen couldn't help admonishing Xueqian: "Why are you still feeling uncomfortable? You're just so smart! Don't make your parents angry. If you don't do well in the exam, at least you have to look good."

Xueqian said nothing, the words lingered in his ears, he was forbidden to enter, and went back angrily to report to Father Wen, who said again: "We didn't expect you to do well in the exam, and we didn't expect you to be more famous, then It's all a joke from before, can you really buy us a villa? This is life, let's have some fun." Father Wen just said it happily.Didn't notice that Xueqian's ears moved, the words floated into Xueqian's ears through the crack of the door, awakening Xueqian from his aestivation.

"You are actually very mediocre. We are all mediocre. It is your parents who are sorry for you, and also blame you, blame you for being self-righteous, blame you for thinking you are smart, and not down-to-earth. You should think about it yourself." The microwave beeped, and it was time to cook.

Unexpectedly, Xueqian said coldly: "I can be ordinary, but I will never be mediocre. I am me, I will not lose to anyone, and I will not be defeated in any aspect."

Father Wen took a few steps, turned around and smiled and said, "Come on, you have been mediocre for many years, and it is not once or twice that you get knocked down. Look at Meng Zhou, who can play well with you. Then It’s not mediocre, it’s too late to talk about this now. Don’t talk about re-study anymore, go to a school if you have one.”

Xueqian roared: "Fuck you." He didn't notice that his grandma was shocked in heaven, "Go to hell." Although I don't know what my father's uncle is, grandpa?uncle? "Stop fucking saying that, let me tell you, I'm set to re-read, if I can't get one book, I'll keep re-reading."

Father Wen was so angry that he rushed over to beat Xueqian.Wen's mother heard the two quarreling, so she hurried out of the back room, hurriedly protected Xueqian, and shouted at Wen's father: "You are promising, you will take revenge on your son. It is not his fault that his son did not pass the exam. He worked hard." , isn’t it, Xueqian?” Xueqian burst into tears.

Father Wen was at a loss for words, still unwilling to say: "You will protect him, if you didn't protect him, I ┓ just... hum." Xueqian cried: "What are you wrong? You are wrong? You must kill me, right? ? You beat me to death, I don't want to live. I just die." Mother Wen slapped Xueqian's mouth lightly.

Father Wen sneered and said: "You don't want to live anymore, it's very good, it won't save me from finishing you, you can take care of yourself, hum, you have no future, and you won't be able to find a job in the future. Mom raised it, are you embarrassed? Think about it, you still have to ask your parents for pocket money when you are seven or eighty years old! When we die, you can only live on the street, just like the beggar who begs for food. You don’t even have to beg for food. Well, you have to get up early if you want to eat, and you have a good attitude."

Xueqian cried weakly: "You are not allowed to talk nonsense, you are not allowed to talk nonsense." His tone gradually weakened, and finally only coughing remained.The mouth is still opening and closing.Nostrils dilated, eyes staring blankly.

Father Wen tasted the emptiness after venting to the fullest, seeing Xueqian's frozen eyes, two turbid tears hanging down, and snot hanging in the air, his heart softened.But he still refused to let go of his airs of being Lao Tzu.He muttered: "Just wait and see." Turning around and entering the kitchen, only Xueqian's hoarse and gradually weakened cries were left, like a weak woman who had been violated and could not resist.

Wen's mother comforted: "Anyway, this is the end, don't be sad, just work hard, check the score."

Xueqian screamed: "Don't worry about it, I'll do it myself!" The shock made Wen's head ache. Sometimes men's screams are no less than women's. It is said that women scream and die when mice are screamed. Obviously don't think about it. a situation.

Xueqian got up, opened the drawer and took out the admission ticket, holding the score card, his hands kept shaking, his heart collapsed to such a point, he no longer had the courage to accept another round of blows, and there was no hope left in his heart, Rose It has already withered away, and only the occasional round of the eyes can prove that it is a living thing, and there is no self-awareness at all. It is only a doctor who declares a brain-dead vegetative state.For a moment, the hands and feet seemed to be separated from him, and he grew his hands and feet and ran away.Mother Wen looked anxious, and carefully pulled the card out of the sluggish Xueqian's hand.Xueqian obeyed him, opened the door and went out.

The waiting time for the score check was tormented. Several times, mother Wen cursed, Xueqian recovered from the state of brain death, and asked uncontrollably what's wrong?Mother Wen only said that there are too many people logging in, and it is difficult to get on the website.Xueqian rubbed his hands unconsciously, thinking that everyone who should come should come, let’s just fail the exam, let He Wenxuan look down on him, Meng Zhou should treat himself as a shameless villain, let’s destroy it.If you pass the exam, it doesn't match your current situation. If you want to die, you have to die thoroughly, until you can't die anymore.The shameless are fearless, this is so true.

But the development of things is always contrary to your plan, especially the poor people who feel deeply that they are living in their fate. The poor people seem to live in accordance with the instructions of fate, but fate thinks that this in itself is against itself. .Mother Wen came out of the back room excitedly, holding Xueqian's face in her arms.

"551 points, 2843 in the province."

After a long period of silence, Xueqian jumped up suddenly, and actually slapped the three-meter-high ceiling with his hands. The dust from the shock was so confusing to the eyes that he didn't even notice it, and shouted hoarsely: "I succeeded, I succeeded, Hahaha." The previous depression and panic, helplessness and despair, at this moment, I can only stand awkwardly in the auditorium as a spectator, and the desire to die just now, the realm of seeing through the world of mortals, is long gone now.The distance between great sorrow and great joy cannot be measured with a ruler at all. Often there is an element of great joy in the emotion of great sorrow. Because of great compassion, there is the possibility of great joy, which even exceeds the degree of gratification in itself.

In such a happy scene, Father Wen's return brought a complete end to this comedy.Knowing Xueqian's grades, Father Wen couldn't believe it was true, but he was extremely willing to believe it was true. When he found out that it was indeed true, his prediction was overturned, and he happily forgot that he was angry.

It's just that the appearance of this happiness makes people feel overwhelmed. The funeral items that were originally prepared are all useless now, and I feel a waste in my heart.The lunch at noon was delicious, Xueqian had fully recovered from the grief, he himself was pressed to the ground and beaten by the grief, but now he got up and chased the sadness, instead letting the sadness run around.Xueqian looked forward unscrupulously, and said a lot of big words, Wen's parents only echoed from the side, in their eyes, Xueqian's image has grown a lot.Many troublesome relatives and friends called to "concern" about Xueqian's grades, all of them congratulated with disappointment.

Lao Ma also received a call from Xueqian to announce the good news, and when he learned of Xueqian's score, he was stunned for a while and didn't interrupt, then he reacted and said with a smile: "I knew it a long time ago, you are fine, a kid with an active brain like you , I have seen that you have potential, haha, okay, okay, your mother can relax. Apply for a good school, you are really lucky."

I feel happy in my heart. The disciples I have no intention of instructing have achieved results that make the teacher more excited, just like seeds planted unintentionally.However, with deliberate cultivation and achievements, I always feel that it should be done. Even happiness seems to be taken for granted, but the happiness obtained unintentionally, like a wallet picked up by good luck, is unexpected happiness. Unexpected happiness is more important than natural achievements. The effect of fast food, the taste is strong, but it cannot withstand slow chewing, and the aftertaste is even more impossible.

Xueqian was very excited and called Wen Bin to ask about Wen Bin's situation. He still had a sliver of reason and didn't call Cao Yuan and Meng Zhou, because Cao Yuan and Meng Zhou were likely to do better in the exam than himself, and he had only a chance to get along with Wen Bin. The comparison was foolproof, Wen Bin answered the phone with a dejected tone, and Xueqian felt guilt-like pleasure in his heart.Wen Bin seemed to be suffering from asthma, his voice was weak and breathless, and he murmured alone, like the self-reflection of a big corrupt criminal after he was arrested. "I thought I could do well in the exam, and I felt good, but I didn't want to come out with this result." Xueqian carefully asked how much the score was, "430 points, at most three books, I thought we both had a chance Those who hit the second book, alas, I'm out of action, it's up to you, have you checked it?"

Xueqian didn't expect that Wen Bin kept comparing him with himself, and felt unhappy, so he couldn't help but said: "I passed the exam, with a score of 551, and I don't know if I have passed one." Wen Bin was shocked:

"You didn't make a mistake, did you, score 551?" Xueqian pretended not to know: "I don't think so? You can't make a mistake, so how could it be wrong?" Wen Bin said happily, which didn't match the situation: "Great, You did so well in the exam, I'm really happy for you." Hearing his sincere blessing, Xueqian felt embarrassed, and even felt ashamed of the evil thought of showing off just now, and said: "Where is it, don't think so much, Anyway, the exam is over, so be happy." Wen Bin said sadly:

"How can you be happy? The children of my father's factory leader all scored higher than me in the exam. They used to overwhelm my father, and my father still expects me to vent his anger for him." Xueqian thought, so you are just because of this Little troubles, the college entrance examination is my own business, but it has become a tool of anger. Thanks to the underdeveloped gambling industry in the mainland, otherwise the college entrance examination has really become a good tool for gambling.

In the afternoon, Xueqian already knew the scores of most of the students. Cao Yuan failed the test and was only one point short of the key score line. Now he hides from people and clamors to repeat the exam. The students dare not contact him.Knowing this, Xueqian gave up the idea of ​​going to Cao Yuan to show off, and suddenly thought of Meng Zhou, wondering how he did in the exam?Maybe I didn't pass the exam. Thinking of this, I feel happy in my heart. This is probably caused by my own self. Xueqian tried his best to restrain this shameless thought, forcing himself to pretend to be generous and think: "You and He Wenxuan both passed the exam. , pass the exam, and go to the same school." He also thought that He Wenxuan's grades were not much better than her own, and it was impossible to go to the same school as Meng Zhou.

If an ugly person wears bright clothes, others will have hallucinations about his appearance and praise him as beautiful, but if a handsome and handsome person is dressed in sloppy clothes, others will also think he is extremely ugly.The college entrance examination is just such a coat. People go to God to get it. Some lucky ones who bribe God in advance may get a mink coat, and those who are unlucky get a beggar's coarse linen clothes.Xueqian was lucky enough to wear a mink coat, while Caoyuan could only wear beggar's clothes.Wen Bin didn't even have to wear clothes at all, but no one paid attention to an ugly person without clothes, on the contrary people would think they should.

To Xueqian's disappointment, Meng Zhou was finally crowned in Huangpao, and He Wenxuan was also promoted to queen.Meng Zhou got 588 points in the test, 600 in the province, and He Wenxuan was one point lower than Xueqian, 2955.When Xueqian heard the news at night, he felt conflicted. Thinking that Meng Zhou had scored higher than himself in the exam, he couldn't help coveting it.But knowing that He Wenxuan was one point lower than her, she felt relieved.

Xueqian committed the original sin of jealousy and pride at the same time.

The next day I went to the school to get the score slip, and only then did I know the general situation. The test in the experimental middle school was not good.Both science and liberal arts were defeated by ×zhong, and Lao Ma's life was not easy. The liberal arts key experimental class only took 13 key points, which is logically a good result.But the science test class was too bad, and the number of eugenics was too small.The achievements in liberal arts are not too outstanding, so they are all ignored.The combination of a cheap suit and a noble tie will only make people feel that the tie is also cheap, but will not feel that the suit has become noble.Lao Ma failed to invite credit, but was snubbed by the principal instead.Originally, the former dean of academic affairs was about to retire. Lao Ma is a graduate student in education and has the experience of studying abroad, so he thinks he has a good say in teaching.But judging from the current situation, Lao Ma's hope is slim, and the rumors about the new dean of academic affairs in the school have nothing to do with Lao Ma.It's like the tainted witnesses in court who wash away their relationship "has nothing to do with me". Originally, rumors involving themselves are annoying things, but for Lao Ma, it's the opposite.

The class is also full of mourners, everyone already knows their scores, and getting score strips is just a formality.The goddess of luxury joins hands with her boyfriend to achieve great results.

It's all over the point.Xueqian couldn't find his confidence, so he didn't respond well.Li Yaoran, Meng Zhou's deskmate, stumbled and only passed two books, crying bitterly, Xueqian kindly comforted him.This morning Xueqian seemed very excited, Lao Ma also joked with Xueqian several times, there was no previous quarrel.

Cao Yuan didn't come, so Wen Bin was only asked to take his note first and give it to him later. Wen Bin also became more active, gathering a large number of frustrated people to scold the unreasonable college entrance examination, the test was too biased, and extreme remarks always It can meet the needs of frustrated people, but there is no possibility of revolution for the time being.Xueqian couldn't get in the way, didn't talk to him very much, he just despised him in his heart, Wen Bin also deliberately didn't talk to Xueqian, Xueqian was so lonely.Meng Zhou also came, looking very low-key, and he was not as close as Xueqian thought with He Wenxuan.The two didn't talk much all morning.He Wenxuan just kept taking pictures with the girls, including a photo with Prince Snot.Xueqian felt disgusted when he saw it.This woman is so unprincipled, no wonder she tempted me to commit such a crime. Thinking of this, I felt a bit of resentment in my heart, hating that she didn't take a photo with me.

Xueqian passed Meng Zhou several times.Both acted like heads of state, smiling at each other, with a personable cool to each other.Because Xueqian did well in the exam, his self-confidence increased greatly, and he didn't admire and look up to Meng Zhou as much as before, as if he was once a flea on Meng Zhou, or a subordinate who was loaded with the subject in "Civil Law" Now he and Meng Zhou's status should be almost the same, and he regretted the confession he humbly confessed in front of Meng Zhou that night.I shouldn't show weakness, at worst I'll fall out, I'm chasing your woman openly, what can you do to me?It's just that at that time, I had no confidence in myself now, which Xueqian never thought of.

After getting the score slip, there is probably one more chance to come to the school, and that is to apply for the voluntary exam, but the opportunity to gather the whole class will never be there again.God is like a naughty child, like playing with sand on the beach, kneading everyone together, and then spreading it everywhere.I don't know what it will be like to meet again after many years, maybe many people will never meet again, maybe Meng Zhou, maybe He Wenxuan, maybe the goddess of luxury and her boyfriend, or the prince of snot.What was it like at that time?Potbellied, carrying a briefcase, and full of oily face?This is of course an optimistic idea.Maybe I was unemployed at that time, lost my family, and had no offspring. If I was that kind of virtuous, I would never participate in the ten-year reunion now. Maybe I saw Meng Zhou well-dressed and He Wenxuan noble and elegant at that time.go!Don't want to.
