Chapter 420 Take the children back to their hometown (1/3)
The noon banquet unfolded in lively, excitement and celebration.
Mei Zhonghua not only drank himself, but also persuaded the big guys to drink with him: "Everyone should eat and drink at noon today."
Li Mingye couldn't help but smile: "Brother Mei is a little fluttering today."
"The two children in his family are so promising and both have been admitted to college. Even if they are floating, they should."
To be honest, Li Mingqin was a little envious. Both children from the eldest sister's family were admitted to key universities, and her family was also two children. I don't know what happened
Zhou Kai should be in the third year of middle school this year, and Zhou Yan should be in the second year of high school.
Zhou Yan Zhou Kai's academic performance is not good!
Both Zhou Yan and Zhou Kai belong to the kind of students who study hard but can't learn, especially Zhou Yan.
It can be said that Zhou Yan is really working hard in her studies. She also goes to school every morning and greedy for the dark. After school, she is either studying or writing questions with books, but her exam results are not satisfactory.
If Zhou Yan studied well, she would definitely not be allowed to go to high school, she would definitely be allowed to go directly to the normal school, and she would be assigned a job after three years of normal school leaving the country. But Zhou Yan did not study well. After Li Mingqin and Zhou Jincheng discussed with them, they continued to let her go to high school, thinking that Zhou Yan worked hard in high school. , But Zhou Yan's grades have always been around 300 points, so she would definitely not be admitted to the university.
Let's talk about Zhou Kai. Zhou Kai is a boy after all, and his brain is not as deadly as his sister, but although he is also studying, he is not attentive when he is studying, and he also reads the book in a mess.
In another year, he will be recruited for the exam, and Li Mingqin is also worried about the study of these two children all day long.
Li Mingye persuaded her: "Everyone has their own talents. If Zhou Yan and Zhou Kai really don't want to learn, it's useless if you force them."
"Then you can't watch them have no way out in the future."
Li Mingqin thought for a while and decided to go back and call Mei's sister and brother over, so that the two of them would also help their children. At least the Mei's sister and brother were admitted to college. Not to mention their hard work, but their learning experience. Also richer than others.
Mei Zhonghua drank this banquet, or Zhou Jincheng, Zhao Jun, and the rest of the elders, carried it back.
The host and the guests were so happy, lively, and extremely festive.
Mei Xiaoran was a little surprised. She didn't expect her father to be the happiest person to enter the university. Her father's excitement was even more excited than the two parties.
When I came out of the hotel after the account was settled, Ouyang Xun was still waiting for her. When he saw her, he said, "Ran Ran, congratulations."
Mei Xiaoran pursed her lips and smiled: "Are you waiting here to say this to me?"
"No, I want to say a lot, but this sentence must be said."
Ouyang Xun has the sea of stars in his eyes, and his smile is as bright as the sun. "I also want to say that from now on, we can officially fall in love. Ran Ran, now you are my real girlfriend!"
When Mei Xiaoran heard this, he tilted his head and smiled embarrassedly.
The road home is not far away, the afternoon sun is shining fiercely on the asphalt road, and the heat from the transpiration almost melts the soles of the plastic sandals.
But Mei Xiaoran felt happy, and would rather go this way with Ouyang Xun.
"When school starts, I will take you to report. Don't let Uncle Mei send you off."
Mei Xiaoran laughed dumbly. It turned out that Ouyang Xun was waiting for her here.
"I'm afraid I can't be the master of this matter? It always depends on my parents' ideas."
"Your brother has also been admitted to the university, or the university in the capital. Wouldn't your parents give your brother away? Do you think too much?"
Ouyang Xun had already settled his small plan early, and he was pretty clear!
Mei Xiaoran couldn't help laughing, but he didn't agree to this, but said smoothly: "Let's talk about it later."
Ouyang looked for those small eyes full of expectation, and he was sad in an instant, making Mei Xiaoran smile...
Mei Zhonghua was drunk all night after being carried home. He didn't wake up until the next morning, but he still yelled excitedly, "Both children have been admitted to college. This is the smoke from Mei Jiazu. I have to go back to my hometown and tell my parents about it. I have to set up a few tables in the village."
Mei Xiaoran persuaded her dad: "What did you drink yesterday, do you want to continue drinking?"
"That is necessary, you and your brother are both admitted to school, Dad is happy!"
When Mei Zhonghua said this, his eyes suddenly reddened, "I thought that when your siblings were admitted to junior high school, Dad tried every means to collect the tuition.
, Now that we have a better life, and you are also admitted to college, you don’t know how happy Dad is! "
Seeing the tears in his father’s eyes, Mei Xiaoran was also moved to cry, "Dad, you are having a good time now, what do you say about this, it was very difficult for our family at that time, then you did not say not to let me and My brother is going to study? Look at other people’s children, they are not allowed to go to school until they grow up to 16 or 7 years old. The boys are allowed to go out to find a job or help the family grow the land. The girls are married to a husband’s family. Can you Insist on letting me and my brother go to school, this is your ability!"
The two men couldn't help but seduce, and both cried with noses head down.
In the end, Mei Xiaoran was persuaded by her father, and went directly with her brother to his hometown with her father.
After arriving at Meijiazhuang, Mei Zhonghua ran to tell his old father and Master Zhuang that his two children had been admitted to a key university. The whole Meijiazhuang was a sensation... You know, after the college entrance examination was resumed, Meijiazhuang The only college student left.
The villagers of Meijiazhuang have farmed for generations. Most of the villagers are farmers. It is not that there are absolutely no scholars. It is said that the ancestors have also produced scholars and juren, but I don’t know what year and month it was. Now everyone has heard of Mei Zhonghua. Both of the children in the family have been admitted to college. The excitement and excitement are definitely not pretends, but also joy from the heart.
The old man of the Mei family even directed his youngest son to worship at the ancestor’s grave regardless of his nearly eighty-year-old age.
Mei Zhonghua had this meaning in the first place. At the moment, he took Mei Xiaoran's sister and brother, and other nephews of the Mei family, brought firecrackers, and sacrifices to the ancestral grave.
Seeing his father kneeling down in front of the ancestor’s grave, and muttering words of comfort to his ancestors, Mei Xiaoran felt like a generation away... This kind of occasion can only be seen in the rural areas of this era, and later generations. I have almost never seen it before, and this sense of ritual can only be experienced by people living in this generation.
Mei Zhonghua was grateful for his ancestors, so he personally shook off the firecrackers, which were a hundred thousand loud firecrackers, which were lit on the grave, crackling, resounding through the sky.
In the sound of firecrackers, Mei Zhonghua held Mei Xiaoran with one hand and Mei Xiaolei kowtow to his ancestors with the other hand, muttering to himself: It was the ancestors who blessed the two children to be so prosperous before they could be admitted to college!
