The next day.
Morning.
The scorching summer sun was obscured by clouds, and it was a bit cloudy. The foggy air was much cooler than the previous few days.
As soon as he got up, Dong Xuebin felt uncomfortable thinking that his underwear and socks were still at Aunt Xuan's house. He hurriedly walked to the side 302 and rang her doorbell. After all, she is the woman he has a crush on. Dong Xuebin really wants to show his best side to Aunt Xuan, but underwear and smelly socks are nothing like that. Alas, alas, if he had known that he would have fought hard to get them last night, I hope Xuan Auntie hasn't washed it yet.
Click, the door opened, "Hey, it's Xiaobin, I'm just about to go to work, come in."
Qu Yunxuan lived alone, and her home was fragrant, the smell unique to a woman's boudoir. The small living room was neatly tidied, and several windows were wiped spotless. After entering the room sideways, Dong Xuebin touched his nose in embarrassment and said with a hot face: "What, my clothes..."
Qu Yunxuan was kneeling on the ground and stroking her stockings, which were wrinkled by high heels. After hearing this, she looked up and took Banu to the bathroom with a smile. "The clothes are all hanging in the bathroom. They were washed yesterday and may not be dry yet." "What? Are you in a hurry to put it on? Can I get you a hair dryer?" She squatted down with one leg, and the other leg was slightly higher, revealing a black hole in the middle of the OL skirt, which was very eye-catching.
Dong Xuebin's face became even hotter, "Ah, no, no, no, I'll take it back to dry. Thank you, Aunt Xuan."
Qu Yunxuan rolled her eyes at him, "Why are you so polite? It's my turn to say thank you."
She was shining her shoes at the door of the bathroom, and Dong Xuebin went into the bathroom to get clothes. One of her T-shirts and pants were hanging on a rack with several towels. On the metal railing behind, her underwear and socks were also hanging there. , Dong Xuebin quickly took a step forward, quickly pulled the clothes off the hanger without looking, and held it in his arms. Thinking of Qu Yunxuan's soft little hands rubbing his underwear, he started to think again. Exciting and embarrassing, it’s just a complicated mood anyway.
After being distracted for a moment, when Dong Xuebin was about to take the clothes home, he was suddenly surprised to find a pair of flesh-colored lace briefs in his arms. Dong Xuebin slapped himself on the forehead, and quickly held Aunt Xuan's underwear in his trembling hands, trying to put it back on the metal shelf, but the moist feel of the briefs made Dong Xuebin hesitate. After a while, he pinched it carefully, pulled off the elastic band excitedly and nervously, and looked inside with great curiosity.
These are Aunt Xuan's underwear.
So lovely
Just as Dong Xuebin was fascinated, a head poked in from outside the toilet, "Hurry up and get it, my aunt is still at work..." She stopped talking in the middle of the sentence. Qu Yunxuan saw the flesh-colored triangle in Dong Xuebin's hand at a glance. pants, and his face turned red.
Dong Xuebin almost fainted and threw his underwear on the washing machine reflexively, "Aunt Xuan, it's not true."
Qu Yunxuan glared at him and said nothing.
It was over. Dong Xuebin felt that his good image in Aunt Xuan's heart was completely ruined. He couldn't argue: "It's not like that. I just took the wrong one..." He couldn't explain it clearly. He suddenly remembered whether he could go back in time today. Before I could test it, I immediately shouted "BACK"
…
Screen flickers
The next moment, Dong Xuebin only saw his hand stretched out in the air, unconsciously trying to grab the flesh-colored briefs hanging on the metal rack.
Exactly the time period one minute ago
Time has gone back again
With a quick brake, Dong Xuebin breathed a sigh of relief and quickly walked out of the bathroom holding only his clothes, "Aunt Xuan, I, I'm going back."
Qu Yunxuan smiled and said, "If you have any dirty clothes from now on, bring them to Auntie. You're welcome."
Phew, it’s so dangerous.
After returning home, Dong Xuebin tried BACK a few more times, but it had no effect.
It seems that the ability to return to the past is indeed once a day.
When you are developed, you will definitely become developed.
Breakfast is porridge made from yesterday's leftover rice, an egg, and a plate of pickled cucumbers and pickles. Because the price of eggs in the vegetable market has increased a lot these days, Dong Xuebin and his mother were reluctant to eat them for many days. They swallowed dryly. Sitting opposite his mother, he carefully peeled off the egg shells and took one bite after another. Chew slowly.
"Your Auntie Xu may come to visit us later." Mom raised her head and asked, "How was your review for the civil service exam?"
"So-so." Dong Xuebin's good mood suddenly disappeared and he sighed, "But there is not much hope. You know, I have never been very good at studying." The main reason why I did not find a job after graduating from college is to prepare for the civil service exam. One of the reasons is that Dong Xuebin's Lianda University is a relatively average school in Beijing, and his grades are relatively average in the school. Taken together, the probability of being admitted to the civil service is very slim, well, it should be said that it is impossible.
"It's okay. If you don't pass the exam this time, there will be another time. If not, just find a class first." The mother touched her son's hand, "I will always pass the exam."
Facing the expectations of his boss, the pressure on Dong Xuebin's shoulders increased in vain, "I... I will try my best."
Alas, civil servants, civil servants.
The competition in the current system is so cruel, can he really squeeze in through the cracks of the crowd? No matter how you think about it, it’s impossible. Not only does he have little hope, Dong Xuebin's college classmates, even the few with excellent grades and extremely smart minds, may not be able to pass the exam. They have to go through two levels of written examination and interview, and the position they applied for , people usually only admit one person, just think about it, that is really one in ten thousand, how difficult is it
Dong Dong Dong, someone knocked on the door outside.
Mom quickly grabbed Dong Xuebin and opened the door to welcome him out. There were two people standing outside the door, one was a middle-aged woman in her forties, and the other was a young man in his mid-twenties and wearing glasses. They were the neighbor Aunt Xu and her son Xiaodong. Behind them, there was a very leadership-like man. A middle-aged man with a big belly walked down from the fourth floor.
When my mother saw it, she immediately greeted the man enthusiastically, "Chief Xu, are you going to work?"
Dong Xuebin also said: "Chief Xu, Aunt Xu."
Section Chief Xu nodded slightly with an official air, and continued walking downstairs without even saying a word to Dong Xuebin and his son.
Aunt Xu followed and told Section Chief Xu: "My son is about to take the exam. You should come back early in the evening and let's go out to eat."
Section Chief Xu and Aunt Xu are a couple. I heard that they were promoted to work in the first half of the year, and now they are working as a small boss with the customs. They are at the deputy or full section level. Anyway, they are doing well in Beikou. However, Dong Xuebin didn't have a good impression of their family, especially Section Chief Xu. He was probably used to being crowded around, his eyes were on the top of his head, and he never looked at people seriously.
After his mother welcomed Aunt Xu and Xiaodong into the house, Dong Xuebin heard a neighbor downstairs saying hello to Section Chief Xu.
"Hey, Section Chief Xu, is it so early today?"
"Xu Ke, thank you for your help with what happened a while ago. Can you please let me treat you to a guest today?"
There was a hint of flattery in his words.
Dong Xuebin couldn't help but sigh in his heart, hey, it's good to be an official, it would be great if he could also be admitted to the civil service examination.
After closing the door and going back to the house, in the living room, my mother took out the best tea in the house and brewed two cups of it for Aunt Xu and the two of them. However, this "good tea" was only for Dong Xuebin's family. Of course, Auntie and Xiaodong wouldn't take a fancy to it. After tasting it, Aunt Xu frowned and put down the cup without taking another sip, "Xiaoping, I heard that your son is also taking the exam for the 15th Middle School? Have you grasped the baseline?" "
Mom pulled Dong Xuebin to sit down and sighed: "There is not much hope. Alas, Xiaodong should be fine, right?"
Xiaodong pushed up the frames of his glasses and looked at the review materials for the thesis in a dull manner without saying anything, as proud as his father.
Aunt Xu smiled proudly: "Of course Xiaodong passed the test. He was careless in the national exam last year and failed to perform to his best on the application questions. If he studies carefully this year, he will be in the top few." He paused. , Aunt Xu lowered her voice in a showy manner and said with a smile: "I'm telling you, Xiaodong's father has already said hello to the customs. As long as Xiaodong passes the interview score, they will definitely let him go."
"That's great, your son has a lot of potential." Mom blinked enviously and sat closer to Aunt Xu, "Do you think if Xiaodong is not busy, can you let him teach Xiaobin his homework? "
Xiaodong was already disgusted with his mother dragging him to visit. When he heard this, he immediately turned around and said in a stiff tone: "Mom, I don't have time."
When Dong Xuebin saw that his mother was being gored, he immediately became angry, "Do you think I have time?"
My mother was anxious and raised her elbow to Dong Xuebin, "What are you doing? I don't understand any manners."
The atmosphere condensed, and Aunt Xu laughed and said: "Actually, your Xiao Bin doesn't have to rush to take the civil service exam. You see, today's college graduates go out to work for a few years to accumulate experience before taking the exam. That way, the passing rate is It’s a little higher, otherwise how can you take the exam if you haven’t even had any contact with society? Do you think there are not even one in a thousand graduates who have passed the civil service exam?”
My mother laughed twice and didn't answer.
Dong Xuebin thought to himself, are you cursing me? How do you know I can't pass the exam
He finally figured it out. Aunt Xu came with her son to show off.
Half an hour later, Aunt Xu took Xiaodong to say goodbye and left. Before going out, Xiaodong glanced at Dong Xuebin coldly, and then looked back contemptuously. In his opinion, Dong Xuebin's family was too poor and there were no people. In terms of ability, let alone the civil service examination, even finding a job may be a problem. He is the kind of person who is destined to live at the bottom of society for the rest of his life. It is really not worth associating with him.
afternoon.
My mother went back to the house to take a nap, while Dong Xuebin was writing and drawing in the living room with a stack of previous years' test questions for practical tests and essays, doing the final sprint review. But after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't take it in anymore, because Dong Xuebin felt that even if he performed beyond his level, he would not be able to reach the threshold of the civil servant examination baseline. It would be a waste of effort to review like this. Alas, what should I do
Subtle voices suddenly floated into my ears.
It seemed like it was inside the house, so I couldn't hear clearly.
Dong Xuebin looked at the bedroom door following the sound, walked over and gently turned the door handle, opening a gap.
I saw my mother holding the black and white photo of my father, sniffling and wiping her tears with her sleeves, crying silently, "Why can her son enter the institution, but not my son? His father, you must I have to hope that our son will pass the exam smoothly. As long as he can enter the institution, I... I can live a few years longer. "
"...Mom" Dong Xuebin's eyelids twitched and he strode over.
When my mother saw her crying face and was caught by her son, she couldn't help but blush. She hurriedly wiped her eyes and said with a smile, "Mom, it's okay, it's okay."
Standing in front of his mother, Dong Xuebin felt cruel and gritted his teeth and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely pass the civil service exam this time, and I will pass it even if I die." His mother's miserable look inspired Dong Xuebin's fighting spirit, and his life One breath is like a stick of incense. Why is it that my parents are all officials, my sons are all civil servants, and I can only be an ordinary citizen, even asking my mother to eat well and wear warm clothes? Can't do anything
They both carry one head on two shoulders, who is worse than the other
He must pass the exam for this civil servant
This time, he just wanted to give himself and his mother a chance to breathe
