Chapter 14 Mature
Before leaving school, Su Yingxue saw Li Mu at the entrance of the phone booth. Thinking of what Li Mu said in the class today, she subconsciously became a little panicked.
She really wanted to ask Li Mu if he said he wanted to take the National People's Congress to take the exam, and was he serious?
But unexpectedly, before he could leave school, Li Mu suddenly ran away.
Su Yingxue watched Li Mu run away from a distance, feeling a little disappointed. She thought that with Li Mu's grades, it seemed that it was still very difficult to get into Renmin University. In the previous few simulations, he only got about 580 points. However, if he wanted to go to Renmin University, he would have to get at least 620 points or 30 points?
After analyzing, Su Yingxue felt that Li Mu was probably just a joke. Thinking about it like this, it felt strange and a little uncomfortable.
Li Mu entered the big spider web cafe and continued to develop the stone overlord. Within ten minutes, Zhao Kang also came.
After Zhao Kang sat down, he asked Li Mu: "How many points are you estimated?"
"It's over 620, where are you?"
"I'm fucking... is it true?"
"real."
"Li Mu, I thought about it seriously and thought we should break up."
"Why?"
"A person like you who are more handsome than me and have so many better grades than me, really can't play with them together, it's too harmful to self-esteem."
"Stop fucking nonsense, how much do you estimate?"
Zhao Kang hesitated for a moment and said with a little unconfidence: "If nothing unexpected happens, it's about four hundred and ninety to five hundred."
"I see that you are not confident in your appearance. Four Hundred and nine are probably hanging, and Four Hundred and nine may not necessarily pass the third line. If you are not sure about passing the third line, you must be cautious when applying for a volunteer."
Zhao Kang asked tentatively: "Why should I apply to a better college in the province?"
Li Mu said: "Since you are willing to go to college, you might as well apply for a city with development. What do you think of Yanjing?"
"Yanjing..." Zhao Kang scratched his head: "Who can I do when I go to the capital like this?"
"Go to school, pick up girls, make money, and reach the peak of your life."
Zhao Kang stammered for a while: "My parents probably won't let me go to college."
"Aren't you willing to repeat the school?" Li Mu asked: "Why didn't you think about it carefully when I said I could earn enough tuition for college?"
Zhao Kang suddenly realized.
It turned out that his good brother had been planning for himself. He knew that he had 80% of his undergraduate entrance exams, and he also knew that he had a completely opposite and irreconcilable conflict with his family's wishes. So he gave himself a choice. It doesn't matter if he didn't get into the undergraduate entrance exam, but it's the same with his own money to go to college.
Zhao Kang was moved and asked one last time: "Can the plug-in be really done?"
"It's really possible."
"Come on, Yanjing's college, right? I understand!"
When Li Mu saw that Zhao Kang had been moved by him, he felt much more relieved and continued to be busy developing the Stone Overlord.
In the middle, Li Mu received a message on his QQ, which was a penguin wearing a pink head flower. After Li Mu clicked it, he was delighted to find that the pink head flower penguin turned out to be Su Yingxue.
He always remembers Su Yingxue's online name, which is the very simple English word Snow. Su Yingxue's QQ has always been this name and has never changed it.
Li Mu often changed his online name in his previous life, but his password was never changed. In this regard, it was somewhat complementary to Su Yingxue.
Snow's message was: "How many points were estimated in the college entrance examination?"
I'm dreaming: "It's between 625 and 630."
Snow: "Really fake? That's so high? Don't lie to me."
I was obsessed with my soul: "What are you lying to? It's true."
Snow: "It would be great if it was true."
Seeing that Su Yingxue seemed to be unbelievable, Li Mu asked back: "What about you, how many points did you estimate?"
Snow: "Between 640-660."
Lee: "Congratulations, you will definitely have no problem going to Renmin University!"
Snow: Hey, why did you suddenly change your online name?
Lee: The one before was too vulgar.
Snow: I didn't think so, it's pretty good.
Li Mu was about to reply, and Snow sent a message: "My mother asked me to go out and chat about it another day!"
Li Mu saw that the pink little penguin turned black and white and sank into an offline friend list. He felt a little empty in his heart. After a half-minute pain, he was re-entered in the development of plug-ins.
At 5:30 pm, Li Mu saved the progress and said to Zhao Kang: "I'll go home for supper today, where are you?"
Zhao Kang rubbed his eyes: "I'll go home to eat too."
...
Li Mu remembered that the first time he drank white wine with his father was after graduating from college.
That time, he decided to go to Yanjing to develop. He left home and walked more than a thousand kilometers away. There was no high-speed rail at that time, and the air ticket from the provincial capital to Yanjing was not something that ordinary people could afford. For ordinary hard seats, it took more than ten hours to drive. The parents were not happy to travel for only one son, but after thinking about it for a few days, their father still respected Li Mu's choice.
Li Mu and his father were both drunk that night. He still remembered that night, he cried in the quilt and swore that he must make a personal appearance in Yanjing. But at first, his life was not much better than a dog. He lived in the basement, lived in a group and rented a house, changed jobs, moved new homes, and was constantly cheated by black agents in the north...
In this life, because of Li Mu's rebirth, the first time the two men collided with their white wine glasses was four years ahead of the day.
Li’s father took out a bottle of Luzhou Laojiao, which he had treasured in the 1980s. It is said that there were only two bottles in total. Li’s father had already planned to leave one bottle for the day Li Mu got married and the other bottle for the day Li Mu had children.
But today I was happy and opened a bottle in advance.
Both of them had good alcohol tolerance, and they were so happy that they shared the same amount of wine. No one was drunk. Instead, they asked my mother to run out and buy a few bottles of beer and then drink it.
At the dinner table, Li Mu talked about the decision to apply for Renmin University. His parents were worried at first whether they would be too risky, but Li Mu insisted that he was confident, so that Li Dad, who had drunk some wine, was in a better mood and said loudly: "Okay! Young people should have the courage to give it a try, Dad supports you!"
After three rounds of drinking, Li Mu suddenly said, "Dad, Xiling Coal Mine seems to be exhausted, right? The benefits are getting worse day by day. What are your plans?"
Dad Li looked at Li Mu in surprise and said, "It's okay, your dad has been a technician for more than 20 years, and he has a skill."
"There are few coal mines in Jiangnan." Li Mu said lightly: "There is only Xiling, a coal mine in Haizhou. If Xiling coal mine is not good, your skills will not be very good, Dad, you may not have much chance of your skills south of the Yangtze River."
Most of the coal mines in China are distributed in the north, and coal mines south of the Yangtze River are rare. What Li Mu said is also very realistic. After his father was laid off in his previous life, he thought about working in the Northwest coal mine, but in the end, because he was too far away from home, he finally chose to find a construction team locally to work.
Li’s father is a more traditional man. His grandparents still live in the countryside, and his mother also has grandparents to take care of. He can’t leave these behind and go to work outside the country.
Li Mu's words made Li's father fall into deep thought. He found that his son had really matured much overnight and was now able to discuss issues with him as an adult.
"I guess Xiling Coal Mine won't last long." Li's father was not going to tell Li Mu this, but he also realized that Li Mu could not hide it now. "There will be a batch of laid off at the end of the month, and there will be a batch at the end of the year. The batch at the end of the year is likely to be released, but it's no big deal. Even if your mother and I are laid off, we will have a salary. If we work for a few years, we can get a refund within the house."
Li Mu smiled slightly: "Dad, I will find a way to earn all the expenses I have for college. You and Mom don't have to worry about these things. The reason I say these is that I don't want you to hide them from me after you are laid off, and to make up for the income gap, and then go out to work hard."
Li's father was stunned. Li's mother asked in surprise: "You are just talking nonsense. Do you know how much it costs to go to college? Your father and I have calculated that we can go to college in the provincial capital, tuition and miscellaneous expenses, living expenses, and travel expenses to and from home. I'm afraid I can't get it if I don't get it if I don't get it for 50,000 yuan in four years. I'm afraid I can't get it if I don't get it for 60,000 or 70,000 yuan!"
Li Mu said: "I will find a way. The Internet is very popular now, and many people have made a lot of money. I have been researching in my spare time and think I can do it too."
"What website?" Li's father frowned: "The Internet? Is the one you spend money to play in the Internet cafe?"
"Yes." Li Mu nodded.
"Don't that give money to Internet cafes?"
Li Mu smiled and said: "I give money to Internet cafes, and I send you the fees for the use of machines and the Internet. Making money is to make money from others online, which is not contradictory."
"Don't let people cheat, there are scammers everywhere these days." Li's mother obviously didn't believe it.
Li Mu also wanted to get a vaccination, so he didn't say that, so he smiled and said, "There is no cost anyway, I'll try it. If it's OK, it's okay or not, it's just a little online fee."
"That's right." Li's father took a sip of wine and said to Li Mu: "Anyway, you can do whatever you want during this summer vacation. If you lack money, please look for your parents. Although our family has no money, at least your first year of college tuition and living expenses are fine, and the rest of your parents will also find a way."
