011 Chen Zishen Failed(1/2)

011 Chen Zishen was a failed student

Three or four days after the monthly exam, the test papers were sent out one after another, and the scores were of course clear. Chen Zishen was indeed pretty good at Chinese. He scored more than 120 points, ranking first in the class, and the rest were pretty much the same.

A hundred and a few points or **10 points.

Xiaowei's grades were much better than his. Except for Chinese, which was ten or twenty points lower than his, everything else was dozens of points higher than his. Of course, the first place in Class 1 was none other than the study committee member, and Chen Zishen was also ranked first.

Looks like 20 people.

In fact, when Chen Zishen entered the class, he was one of the bottom ten or twenty in the class. He spent money to buy it. At first, he thought he was the bottom one in Class 1, No. 1 Middle School. Only when he got to the class did he realize that there were others.

The score is lower than his, which means that there are really many people who spent money to buy into No. 1 Middle School.

…………

When Chen Zishen saw his test results, he recalled the scene when he first came to school:

That was the first time he came to No. 1 Middle School accompanied by his father.

In some provinces in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the weather in September is very hot. Accompanied by his father, Chen Zishen rode a bus all the way from his hometown in the countryside to the county town.

The roads in rural areas are in terrible condition, full of potholes and no one is repairing them.

"Damn it, how can I walk on this road? The government says it needs to be repaired every year, but it's still the same every year. Now the holes are getting bigger and bigger. There's really no way to go." The driver and the passengers in the car said.

Complaining all the way.

"It has been repaired, but it has been repaired and broken, and it has been repaired again and again. There is nothing the government can do about it. We have invested a lot of money, but the road is still not good. All we can do is scold those unscrupulous contractors."

The uncle who sells Furong cigarettes for 2 yuan a box said very pertinently.

"Uncle, you are not allowed to smoke in the car." The female conductor immediately reminded.

"Yes, yes, yes... isn't my mouth itchy? I'll put it out right away..." As the uncle said, he took two quick puffs and then threw the red cigarette butt out of the car window.

The large number of people in the Dragon Kingdom can be seen on the buses in the countryside. The interior of the bus is completely dark, and the fixed seats are of course full. There are two benches in the narrow aisle that is just one person wide.

, it was densely packed with men, women, and children, and the rest of the bus was full of people. If you wanted to turn around in the bus, it was impossible because there was no extra space in the bus. In the summer, 30-

- In the temperature of 40 degrees Celsius, everyone in the dilapidated bus without air conditioning felt hot and suffocating.

Fortunately, Chen Zishen's home is at the departure station of the bus. The father and his son got up at 6 o'clock in the morning, and then stood two places early and sat on the bus to wait. At 7 o'clock, the first bus in the village

The bus set off. Although they were extremely hot, at least they didn't have to stand and squeeze like other passengers halfway up the bus.

After more than an hour of suffering along the way, a car of people finally arrived at the county town. Before the car door could be opened, the people in the car were already pouring out of the car like a flood.

"Ah!..." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of their hearts. Although the sun outside was scorching, the air was very hot, and there was a very pungent smell of stinky water and odor, but compared to the inside of the car, it was still...

It's dozens of times more comfortable.

"Take a ride, hitch a ride, where are you going? I'll help you check it in. It's very cheap..." A group of coachmen had already been set up at the station. As they spoke, they helped twist the passengers' packages with their hands.

"No, we'll come by ourselves, it's nearby." Chen Zishen's father said to the coachman, and the man in the straw hat quickly let go and went to pick up other guests.

The father and son were sweating profusely after walking for a while under the scorching sun, especially the middle-aged father, who was carrying several bags of local specialties from his hometown. He was almost exhausted in such a hot weather.

"Let's take a rest first." Chen Zishen pointed to a shady spot by the roadside and said.

"It's okay, we'll be there in a little while." The father straightened his back and continued to walk forward with his head buried in the heavy load.

Passing through an alley, the sunlight had weakened a lot at this time, because there were tall buildings on both sides of the alley, and there was only a little shadow left in the sunlight. His father stopped, wiped the sweat with his hands, and felt relieved.

After taking a breath, he said: "Finally there is no sun anymore. It's much better to catch a cold." After walking along the alley for a few minutes, a very impressive time sign appeared in their eyes, which read "Good Harvest Day"

"We're here." Father Chen showed a happy expression and said, "Here we are, here we are, right in front."

Chen Zishen didn't have any excited reaction. He only scored 520 points on the 750-point paper for the high school entrance examination. The county's second middle school required 530 points, but he was still 10 points short; the first high school required 600 points, but he missed 80 points; the third middle school needed 600 points, but he missed 80 points.

A score of 500 is enough for him to get into the exam, so he can still do well there. How can he be happy with a dismal score?

But his father must let him go to a good high school. Of course, the adults' intentions are good, but Chen Zishen is not very happy. Asking his parents to pay for it makes him feel uncomfortable. He previously thought of working hard to get into high school, but unfortunately

The dream has come true. Well, when it comes to buying a high school, it is really a heartbreaking thing. Especially for those young people who are motivated to study with a group of people who have higher scores than themselves, the pressure is self-evident.

This is something Chen Zishen doesn't want to see.

The high school entrance examination ended, and about 20 days later, the test scores came out. There was no Internet in the village. After Chen Zishen went to a far away town to check the scores, he became upset. He stayed at home all day without leaving the house.

step.

"The baby is going to be so suffocated." The family members all said worriedly.

Chen Zishen's father came back late as usual, "dong dong..." It was already 12 o'clock in the night, and Chen Zishen still had his eyes wide open. It was not the summer heat that made it difficult for him to fall asleep, but being upset was the chief culprit of insomnia.

The culprit is that the summer vacation after the high school entrance examination is a long time of suffering for every failed student. He ran to open the door, and a strong and disgusting smell of alcohol hit his nose, and then a heavy body fell with the door panel.

When he came down, Chen Zishen had already expected that it was his drunken father. He stretched out his hands to catch his father. At the age of sixteen or seventeen, he still had some strength. Although his father was heavy, he could still hold him. He couldn't sleep all night.

Maybe he just lay there in a daze for a while.

The next day, when his father sobered up, he said to Chen Zishen: "I went to see Teacher Li in the village yesterday. One of his cousins ​​is the dean of teachers in the county No. 1 Middle School. I dragged him out of his relationship and agreed to let you go."

Get it to No. 1 Middle School.”

"Whatever." Chen Zishen replied nonchalantly.

Although Chen's father had already been to the school before and looked for the dean of students under the leadership of Teacher Li in the village, now that he has arrived at No. 1 Middle School with many tall buildings, he is still a little confused.

"It seems to be going this way." Father Chen muttered in a low voice. "I still need to find someone to ask." He continued to mutter.

"Hello, may I ask how to get to Director Li's house." Father Chen asked a random passerby. The passerby took a look and saw an adult with a child and a large bag of things on his back. In September

It was the beginning of high school. He already understood what was going on. He immediately pointed to a tall building and said: "It's for the children to go to school. It's not easy to study now. Just go over there, it's on the third floor."

.”

"Thank you!" Father Chen was grateful.

"It's okay, it's okay, we all understand the love of parents in the world." The man said very friendly.

Chen Zishen followed his father to the director's home, "Hey, my fellow countryman is here, come in and sit down, and I'll give Uncle Wu some tea." Director Li was quite knowledgeable, and greeted him warmly as soon as he opened the door.

"Quick, put your things down quickly. It's such a hot day. I'm almost exhausted from carrying all these things. We already told you we don't want them. We're all from the same country. There's no need to be so outspoken." The director continued to say politely.

.

The director and Chen's father talked for a long time, and finally they seemed to have finished talking. Chen's father took out 6,000 yuan and handed it to the director and said: "I'll leave this child to you. Thank you, director. If the child doesn't obey, just beat him."

Feel free to scold me."

"This is wrong. There is no need to beat or scold the child. We want humane education. This child is smart at first sight. He should study hard!" The director said and touched Chen Zishen's head. In fact, there may be something behind his words.

This child had nothing to do with him in the future, and he was too lazy to beat and scold him. Being able to help buy the No. 1 Middle School for less money was already a great help to the fellow villagers. Chen Zishen's father certainly understood what the director meant, and he immediately said:

"Then, director, we're leaving. I'm sorry to bother you!"

"Hey, don't say that. It's too foreign. We are all from the village. I can make some contribution to the village. Why don't you just eat at my house." The director said very politely.

Father Chen also knew that the director was just talking about it to save face. How could he eat at other leaders' houses? Besides, even if he ate big fish and meat, he would not feel comfortable. It would be better to spend some money and drink some wine in a small restaurant outside.

, he said: "No, no, if you have something else to do, don't worry about us!"

"Slow down!" the director shouted outside the door. Chen Zishen and his father had already walked downstairs.

…………

"Eat first, and then go to the freshman office to register." His father said happily.

"Which restaurant should we go to eat?" Chen Zishen's father asked casually, and then he asked and answered: "This is the Ruyi restaurant. The name is nice and not bad. Ruyi is the one. Son, you will have to go to college in the future."

As one wishes."

Chen Zishen didn't know if he heard his father's words. He just walked into the restaurant without saying a word and sat down. "Boss, are there any toilet paper?" Chen Zishen shouted.

"Here it comes, here it comes!" The waiter's hands were full of greasiness. She handed over a roll of rough paper towels that were white and black. Chen Zishen then tore off a section of the paper towel and wiped it on the table, but regardless of

No matter how hard he wiped it, he still couldn't get it clean. After thinking about it, Chen Zishen had no choice but to give up. He finally had to sit down regardless.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the food was served. Chen's father ordered two bottles of Xiaozhijiang and drank it to entertain himself. Chen Zishen ate a bowl of rice without much appetite, then threw away the bowl and chopsticks and went to look outside.

Pedestrian.

"Have you finished eating?... Let's go, sign up first!" Father Chen said, after sipping the last drop of wine, he threw away the plastic cup and stood up to leave.

…………

It was also the first time for Chen Zishen and his father to come to No. 1 Middle School. They knew nothing about the location. Although there were signs in some places, it was still a bit troublesome to find them.

"Go find a student and ask." Father Chen said.

"Yeah!" Chen Zishen nodded.

"This xxxxoooo..." Chen Zishen's father asked in dialect. The male classmate rolled his eyes, but he still couldn't figure it out. Although they are in the same county, even in the same town in the south, the languages ​​​​are very different.

, In addition, Father Chen is an old farmer, and he speaks in a gibberish way, so it is normal for others to not understand him at first. Father Chen followed this with a strange accent and imitated the Mandarin spoken on the TV, and the classmate seemed to understand a little bit.

, but he seemed a little unwilling to help. He glanced at the two of them and said: "I'm going to eat. I have to play some legends online later. Where will I have time."

The two sighed in disappointment, and Chen's father said: "Zishen, let me ask, a child of this age needs to learn to communicate and improve his interpersonal skills. You don't have to hold it in for a long time, so you can read

What’s the use of having a book?”

Chen Zishen didn't want to hear this kind of education for him, and even seemed to say that he was not good enough. However, in order to register early and find the dormitory and class early, he voluntarily went to find a classmate to ask.
