Li's father and Li's mother stayed in the countryside for two days, and rushed home at five o'clock in the afternoon on the third day, dusty and dusty.
The reason why they were in such a hurry was because after six o'clock tonight, the college entrance examination score checking hotline was officially opened. They couldn't wait to know how many points their sons had scored in the college entrance examination.
Under the watchful eyes of his parents, Li Mu turned on the speaker phone on his home phone and called the Provincial Education Commission's college entrance examination score test hotline.
After the prompt tone of the automatic audio station, Li Mu entered his admission ticket number, and then the mechanical voice on the phone began to report scores.
"Admission ticket number..., name: Li Mu, scores in each subject of the college entrance examination are..."
Li's father and Li's mother began to wait with bated breath.
"Chinese: 112 points."
Father Li and Mother Li frowned slightly, their scores in Chinese were a little low, but they knew that Li Mu's advantage lay in science.
"Mathematics, 136 points."
"Not bad, not bad." Li's father and Li's mother nodded repeatedly. Li's mother also calculated on the paper and said: "248 points."
"Integrated science, 238 points."
"It's not bad!" Li's father and Li's mother began to get nervous: "486 points, just depends on English!"
Li Mu was not nervous at all about the previous three subjects. Although he did not remember his specific scores in each subject, the total score for these three subjects was 486, which was accurate to his memory.
The only thing he is nervous about now is English.
My own estimate of the score was 140. It should not be less than this score, right
At this time, the voice on the phone said: "English: 150 points."
"What?"
Dad Li stood up suddenly, trembling with excitement, and didn't even notice the cigarette butt dropped on the ground: "How many points did you get in the English test? One hundred and fifty? Full score?"
"Yes!" Mother Li burst into tears: "It's a perfect score! My son's total score was 636!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Li's mother sobbed. She never dreamed that her son could get such a high score in the exam. The most perfect situation in her mind was that Li Mu was admitted to a college. The joy and satisfaction in it are something I have never experienced before.
At this time, Dad Li exclaimed, covering his chest, and it took him a long time to breathe evenly: "Good boy, how did you do this? You can get perfect scores in English!"
Li Mu was also very excited. With a total score of 636, Renmin University was completely successful!
"I have already said that my English is extraordinary, but you still don't believe it!"
"I didn't expect to get perfect scores on the exam!"
Li Mu also didn't expect that during the score evaluation, except for composition, he got 125 points, but he didn't expect that his composition would get full marks.
"One world, one dream" seems to be very popular!
Dad Li almost immediately took out his mobile phone and called Uncle Li Mu.
"Daoshun, Xiaomu's college entrance examination results are out... 636 points, yes, you haven't heard, it's 636. Go tell our parents quickly and make them happy..."
Li Mu's grandparents did not have a telephone at home, but fortunately, my uncle lived in the same village with them, very close to each other.
Dad Li notified all his relatives and several real good friends. After a series of phone calls, he was in a great mood and patted his thigh with a glowing face: "Come on, let's go to a restaurant today! "
Li Ma smiled and said: "Let's go to Haizhou Hotel! By the way, Xiao Mu, you have to call Xiao Wan too. I think if she hadn't bumped you lightly, you might not have been able to get a perfect score in the English test! Yes! Thank you for enlightening me!"
"Mom, what kind of weird theory are you talking about..." Li Mu smiled helplessly, but still called Chen Wan immediately.
What Li Mu didn't expect was that Chen Wan was already on the train to Shanghai and was about to stop soon.
Li Mu couldn't help but complain: "Sister Wan, it's not interesting to leave without saying a word."
Chen Wan smiled and said: "The most painful parting is the parting. It's better for me to get out of here alone. Why are you looking for me, brat?"
"I'll treat you to dinner. My college entrance examination scores are out."
"How many exams did you take?"
"636."
"So high! Where's English?"
"Full marks."
"Wow!" Chen Wan cheered excitedly: "I can finally get rid of all my guilt!"
Li Mu then said, "I wanted to treat you to dinner to thank you for bumping into me, but I didn't expect you to leave."
"I'll treat you to food when I get back!"
"Okay, you have to take care of yourself in Shanghai."
"Don't worry brat, it's the same for you."
After hanging up the phone, Li Mu was vaguely disappointed by Chen Wan's departure, but he tried his best not to let his emotions get into the corner of the parting moment. The score came out. After all, it was something worth being happy about. It was definitely a perfect score. , which made her parents extremely happy and made herself very satisfied. The perfect score in English made Chen Wan's long-standing guilt disappear.
Putting away the phone, Li Mu smiled and said to his parents: "Sister Wan went to Shanghai, so let's eat as a family."
"Okay." My parents nodded.
Dad Li immediately said to Mom Li: "Xiao Mu scored more than 600 points in the exam, which is a great joy. I will ask for leave another day, and we will take Xiao Mu back to the countryside to see my parents."
"Okay." Mother Li nodded, hesitated for a moment, and asked Father Li, "How about we take some time to invite everyone in our family to celebrate together."
There was a hint of confusion in Father Li's expression, but he nodded again and again: "It's time to invite, but it's a bit late today, so let's do it tomorrow."
Seeing Dad Li's willingness to agree, Mother Li smiled knowingly, took Dad Li's arm, and comforted her softly: "Don't think too much, our family is different now, isn't it? Our Xiaomu did so well in the college entrance examination." , and you are so good at making money, if my elder brother and younger sister knew that Xiao Mu is so promising now, they would definitely not say that kind of thing to you again."
Father Li nodded and smiled at Mother Li, but Li Mu found that there was a bit of embarrassment and reluctance in this smile.
Li Mu knew that in his previous life, his father had always been hiding from his mother's natal family, especially Li Mu's uncle and aunt, and they tried their best not to see each other if possible.
This is not to blame for his father's unkindness. Li Mu knew that his uncle and aunt had always had problems with his father since their parents were not married. Every time there was a family gathering, his father would become the sarcastic comment of the two of them. Even Li Mu couldn't bear what he said to the person he was talking to. What's more, as the father of the person involved, Li Mu's relationship with his uncle and aunt in his previous life was also very ordinary. The main reason was that when they targeted his father, they would refute him on his behalf, which often offended them. both.
Li's father, Li Daoping, was born in a rural area. The whole family still lives in a town on the border of Haizhou. He is the only one working in the city. In his own words, Li's family has been poor farmers for five or six generations.
However, Li Mu’s mother Xiao Yunfang comes from a family of workers, and her grandparents were the earliest state-owned enterprise workers. Therefore, Li’s mother and Li Mu’s two uncles and two aunts all have small town registrations and grew up eating commercial grain. Their conditions are much better than those of Li’s father. At least, this is one of the reasons why my uncle and aunt look down on Dad Li.
Now my uncle and his wife both work in the tax bureau, earning at least 40,000 to 50,000 yuan a year with salary and benefits. After my aunt was laid off a few years ago, life was hard for a while. Then she suddenly had an idea and opened a small-scale business in the old street. It is said that the business of the children's clothing store was good from the beginning, and once it stabilized, it could earn about 30,000 yuan a year.
The income of both families is at the standard well-off level. In comparison, they look down on coal miners like Li Mu's father who only have a dead salary of about 1,000 yuan a month.
In fact, the reason why Dad Li is disliked in the eyes of Uncle Li Mu and Aunt Li is not just because he is from a low background and makes little money. The most important thing is that they have had a long-standing feud in their hearts.
According to what Li's father later told Li Mu, Li Mu's uncle once wanted to introduce Li's mother to the son of the then deputy director of the tax bureau. The other party also liked Li's mother very much and was even willing to marry him after they got married. Li's mother, who went to the coal mine, got a job at the tax bureau and promised to get Li Mu's aunt to work at the tax bureau after she graduated from high school.
At that time, the tax bureau had not yet carried out the reform of the tax sharing system. It had great powers and was one of the most popular departments. No matter how ugly the girl or the laziest boy was, as long as they could get into the tax bureau, they could be defeated by matchmakers at home. The threshold, but Li Ma did not agree to it or not, and followed Dad Li resolutely.
Although Li Mu's grandparents were very open-minded and had no objections at the time, in the eyes of his uncle and aunt, Li's father became the culprit who abducted Li's mother and brought her to live a miserable life.
In the hearts of Li Mu's uncle and aunt, there is a deeper level of dissatisfaction with Li's father, because they both feel that if Li's mother had married the son of the deputy director of the tax bureau, they would have had a great future. Improvement, if my uncle has this kind of relationship in the tax bureau, he can at least be promoted to a cadre. If my aunt joined the tax bureau, she would not have been laid off because of the closure of the textile factory. After two or three years of hard work, although she is now doing business, I'm getting better, but I still have this knot in my heart.
In Li Mu's memory, this situation became more serious after his parents were both laid off in his previous life. In the past, Li's father could not hold his head up in the Xiao family. After being laid off, the situation became more serious, as if he had no future and could not make money. , causing his wife and children to suffer, are all the "crimes" that the uncle and aunt accused Dad Li of.
Li Mu, who has a mental age of over 30 years old, knows very well that in this era where the poor are laughed at but not the prostitutes, the reason why his uncle and aunt are sarcastic is because they think Dad Li has no money and no future. If Dad Li can make money and stand up straight, They have nothing to say after they lose their focus on money.
Thinking of this, Li Mu suddenly had a plan in his mind.
Not surprisingly, Metersbonwe's final review will be passed within a few days. Once passed, I will hurry up and set up the store so that my parents can have a prosperous business in the future.
However, once the head office approves, not only must the store be renovated immediately, but people must also be arranged to study there. No matter what kind of store manager is hired, at least one of Li's parents and Li's mother, as future bosses, must attend training.
However, the plan to open a store has not yet been openly disclosed to his parents, so Li Mu has been thinking about how to force his parents to give up their work and turn their attention to the store.
It seemed that this banquet was an opportunity. Li Mu felt that it was time for him to put on a show for his father. On the one hand, he wanted to impress his uncle and aunt on Father Li, and on the other hand, he also wanted to force Father Li into danger.
