Siheyuan Shangpeng

After arriving at the examination venue, I tidied my belongings, found the classroom, and sat quietly in my seat waiting for the examination to begin.

The first subject is political knowledge, followed by Chinese, foreign language, Chinese and foreign history and geography, mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology. Although there are many subjects, they are all completed in three days, so the college entrance examination is still quite tiring.

Shang Peng is still very cautious about politics, because there is a difference between current political ideas and future ideas. Shang Peng has been answering questions in line with the characteristics of the times, and must not use some vocabulary or ideas that are not in line with this era. If he makes mistakes in other subjects, at most he will not get any points, but if he makes a mistake in politics, it may be a matter of life and death for his family. Fortunately, Shang Peng read a lot of political books and articles of this era when he was free at the space farm, and did not borrow any modern ideas at all.

After finishing the political subject, everything else became much easier. Three whole days passed. When he finished the last subject, Shang Peng dragged his tired body out of the examination room. He felt relaxed. Looking at the classmates around him who were also taking the college entrance examination, some were relaxed, some were happy, and some were frustrated. All kinds of life were reflected in it.

Shang Peng shook his head, stopped looking at other people, walked quickly out of the examination room and headed towards the courtyard. On the way, he passed by a remote alley and took out two pounds of pork, a big rooster, and some vegetables from the space while no one was around and took them home.

When they returned to the courtyard, Third Uncle Yan Fugui was still guarding the door, fiddling with his pots of flowers and plants. When he saw Shang Peng coming back, he didn't want to go forward at first, but when he saw what Shang Peng was holding, he hurried over and said with a smile as he walked, "Xiaopeng, are you back after the exam? You bought so many things. Third Uncle will help you get some!" After saying that, he started to help Shang Peng get the things.

Shang Peng knew what he was thinking, but he didn't resist. The Third Uncle still had his bottom line. He wouldn't take anything if you didn't give it to him. After all, it wasn't the difficult three years yet. When that time came, Shang Peng wouldn't dare ask him to help take things.

When the Third Uncle helped Shang Peng carry the things to the store's door, Shang Peng put the things at his own door, casually took out a few candies from his bag and handed them to the Third Uncle, saying, "Third Uncle, take these candies and give them to Xie Di and the others to sweeten their mouths."

When the third uncle saw that the gang took the things and gave them a few candies, he thought that the merchant boy would not give anything back, so he made money again.

He thought about it in his mind and said he didn't need it, but his hand took it very honestly, and then he praised Shang Peng for his magnanimity.

Shang Peng didn't waste any more words with him. He said goodbye to the third uncle and went home with his things. When he entered the house, he found Shang's father, Shang's mother and Shang Liang were all at home. The food was already prepared. When they heard the voices outside, they knew that Shang Peng was back. They also knew that Shang Peng had come back with the things, otherwise the third uncle would not have been so enthusiastic to help.

After Shang Peng came in, the three found that the things Shang Peng took were not strange. In the past six months, Shang Peng's friend would send some things to his home when he had nothing to do. Once, Shang's father and mother discussed with that person not to take so many things as it would easily arouse jealousy. There was no choice, Shang Peng had to tell Shang Libie to take less.

Shang Peng came into the room and saw that the meal was ready, so he put down his food, washed his hands and started to eat. After eating and cleaning up, Shang Liang went back to his room to do his homework. Shang's father and mother stopped Shang Peng who was about to go back to the room. Shang's father asked, "I shouldn't have asked you this, but we are really worried about you. This time..."

Shang Peng immediately understood what his parents meant and replied, "Are you still worried about your son? I can go to any school you want me to go to. Hehe... I'm sure it will be no problem for you two."

Mother Shang smiled and said, "Okay, I feel relieved when you say that. Go and have a rest. You look tired!"

"Okay, Mom and Dad, I'll go and rest. I've been really tired these past few days." After saying that, he went back to his room to rest.

He slept until dawn, and his biological clock that should wake him up on time every day did not respond at all. When Shang Peng got up, he found that no one was at home. There was breakfast left by his mother on the table. Shang Peng ate it in a few bites without thinking it was cold, and then went back to his room to lie down.

He slept until the afternoon again. When Shang Peng got up and went to the toilet, the third uncle Yan Fugui was holding a fishing rod and preparing to go fishing. He saw Shang Peng coming out and asked, "Xiao Peng, you slept until now?"

Shang Peng replied embarrassedly: "Third uncle, are you going fishing? Hi! I'm just too tired these days, so I slept a little longer. Third uncle, where did you get this fishing rod? I'll get one tomorrow and go fishing with you."

Yan Fugui became excited when the fishing rod was mentioned. He said to Shang Peng, "Xiao Peng, don't look at my fishing rod because it looks plain. This is a bamboo rod carefully selected by your uncle. It has been baked and polished, and it has to be wrapped with a jade mouth. Do you know what a jade mouth is? If you don't know, forget it. Then it is polished, and the last step is to make a handle. Anyway, there are many processes to make a fishing rod.

Look at Uncle San's fishing rod. Let me tell you, Uncle San used this fishing rod to catch a fish weighing more than ten kilograms..."

"Uncle! Uncle! Have you ever caught such a big fish? Why haven't I seen you bring it back?"

Yan Fugui was stunned, thinking it was all over. He got excited and blurted out the fact that he had caught a big fish. That big fish cost him ten kilograms of food coupons and five dollars. He couldn't tell anyone about it.

Then he said, "What big fish? You heard me wrong. Uncle Xiaopeng, I'm going to go fishing. I'm leaving first!"

He wanted to leave after saying that, but Shang Peng grabbed him and said to the Third Uncle, "Third Uncle, you don't want me to spread the news that you can catch big fish, right? Look, you only bring back small fish every day, but where are the big fish? Hehe..."

The third uncle saw it and thought, OK! This is asking for benefits, but I am the only one who asks for benefits from others, how can I give benefits to others, so I want to refuse.

Shang Peng knew that the uncle had misunderstood when he saw his face, so he quickly said, "Uncle, I just finished my exam and it's okay. You can take me with you when you go fishing. I will only spend a vacation with you, and I may not have time to go in the future. The main thing is that I have never been there before and don't know where to go. What do you think?"

When the third uncle heard that the boy was not asking for any benefits from him, he thought that it would be the same whether he went alone or took someone with him. The fish in the river would not decrease just because he took one more person. He could even do him a favor. Maybe he could even benefit from it when the boy became successful in the future. There was no reason for him to refuse.
