It is September, and the afternoon sun is not warm.
The breeze was blowing, and it didn't bring any coolness. Perhaps it was a psychological effect. At this time, Wu Xiu felt a little cold, and even felt a sense of loneliness deep in his heart.
Wu Xiu felt that he was abandoned.
The high school entrance examination is over and the results are announced.
When Wu Xiu learned that he hadn't been admitted to high school, he silently recalled his muddle-headed life in junior high school for three years, and he gladly accepted the result. At the same time, he went to Yaya's house, the only mobile phone in the village, borrowed the phone to call his parents who had great expectations of him, and made a sincere repentance.
Of course, the village chief has a fixed phone, but Wu Xiu feels that he should find a corner where no one can secretly explain such things as confession.
The parents were stunned on the phone for a long time, and then they comforted Wu Xiu. When Wu Xiu thought they had forgiven themselves, they quit their job in the field and went home.
The sky is blue and the water is clear, and the environment is beautiful.
Wujia Village, hut, living room.
Wu Xian sat in the main seat, playing with two walnuts in one hand and freshly brewed tea in the other. He lowered his head and took a sip slowly, savoring the Dahongpao that he specially bought back. The intoxicated expression on his face was like an expert in the world.
After a while, he glanced at his son Wu Xiu, who was sitting next to him, and asked, "Do you know the dog eggs in the west of the village?"
"That fool!" Wu Xiu nodded and said, "I know."
"How many times have I told you, don't just nickname people casually."
"But Dad, his real name is Chen Li."
Wu Xian was stunned and thought for a while and said, "Okay, don't care about the details. Do you know why that dog—Chen Li is in his 30s and is not married yet?"
Wu Xiu asked in confusion, "Isn't it because of stupidity?"
"-That is only for objective reasons, the most important thing is that he has no education."
"What does this have to do with academic qualifications?"
"You think, how could he make money if he didn't graduate from elementary school? If he doesn't make money, who would marry his daughter?"
"But I graduated from junior high school!"
"Is there a difference? Now the times are different, college students are popular. Look at other college graduates outside, they are all rushing to ask for them, so naturally you don't have to worry about your daughter-in-law. Who wants a junior high school graduate like yours?" See Wu Xiu didn't speak, Wu Xian continued: "Look at Chen Li's father, bear..."
"Dad, my real name is Chen Mao." Wu Xiu interrupted Wu Xian and said weakly.
Wu Xian paused, glared at Wu Xiu, and said a little displeased: "Is it me or you?"
"You say it! You say it!"
"Look at the dog—Chen Mao, why can he marry a virtuous daughter-in-law and still be the head of our village? It's because he is the first college student in our village."
"That said, but Dad, I am puzzled. You said that the village chief is a college student and his wife is so virtuous. Why is his son a fool?"
"How do you say it? How many times have I told you, don't just give someone a nickname. Also, don't call Chen Li a fool, you—the stinky boy, almost made you farther away." Wu Xian glanced at Wu. Xiu said, "Where did I just say?"
"You said the village chief's wife is very virtuous."
"Fuck off! When did I say it?" Wu Xian put the teacup in his hand on the table, staring at Wu Xiu.
Seeing Wu Xian's unhappy expression, Wu Xiu hurriedly explained: "You just said that the village head married a virtuous daughter-in-law because he has an education."
Wu Xian was stunned and said, "Yes, so academic qualifications are very important."
Wu Xiu asked, "But Dad—I think it's nice to be alone."
"It's good to be alone? Are you stupid? Think about it. In the future, you will have to wash your clothes and cook by yourself. How hard is it?"
Wu Xiu wondered: "But don't you wash clothes and dishes at our house? And if it wasn't for your cooking, it would have been your job to cook."
"How do you—how do you talk?" Wu Xian said displeased: "I was voluntary, I just don’t want your mother to be too tired. Besides, you are alone, waiting for you to be lonely when you are old, and you don’t even have a company to talk to. How lonely?"
"Okay, Dad, just talk about your purpose!"
Wu Xian didn't want to go around the corner either, and said seriously: "Go and repeat! At that time, you will be admitted to high school and then university. When you graduate from university, you will have a good life in the future.
Wu Xiu shook his head, and refused: "I know my current state of study. This is a dream at all, so forget it."
"What do you want to repeat?"
Wu Xiu explained: "It's not that I don't want to, I'm not that piece of material. Going to school is such a boring thing, I don't have any motivation. I want to sleep as soon as I go to class, and you let me repeat, don't you torture me?"
"Who said you weren't that piece of material? Did you forget that you passed the first class exam in elementary school?" Wu Xian seemed to have thought of something, and said sternly: "Is it because your mother and I have been out in the past few years, you Have a bad boyfriend?"
"Um, where did you want to go." Wu Xiu said with a grieved expression: "You don't know, I am upright, pure and kind, introverted and inferior, honest and honest, I do not ask for anything in return. I can't make friends, and I have bad payments. juvenile?"
"Really? Now let's not talk about the fact that in the past few years, you always fought and caused trouble, and you were chased to your home, so scared to hide in your grandma's house that you dare not return?"
"Ah, that was when I was in elementary school, isn't it ignorant!"
"It's as sensible as you are now." Wu Xian looked at Wu Xiu and said, "I tell you, letting you repeat it is for your future consideration. How can it torture you? Think about it, you are a junior high school graduate. , It’s impossible to work as a minor, right? My mother and I won’t agree.
Since you can't get rid of going to school, why not repeat the exam for a better high school? And as long as you go to high school, you won't be boring anymore. "
"how do you know?"
Wu Xian paused and said, "You know, Lao Tzu is a person who went to high school. Lao Tzu tells you as a person who passed by, the life of high school students is called campus life, which can be described in two words,'comfortable'."
Seeing Wu Xian's reminiscence expression, Wu Xiu curled his lips: "You don't fool me anymore. There is no comfort in school, it is all suffering."
"—Didn’t you often go to Yaya’s house in the east of the village to watch TV? What kind of high school students do you see on TV? Handsome guys and beauties eat, drink and play all day long, and occasionally learn how to practice.
Wu Xiu naturally didn't believe it, and said, "It was on TV, but it's not true."
"Then you are wrong. Not all the performances are fake. Many of them are based on real people. How else to say: Life is like a play, and drama is like life?"
