beloved does not come back

Wuhan, September.

Jiang Tianxiao turned over, frowning.After a while, he frowned and turned back.

The corridor outside the door was full of voices, asking where the water room was, where the toilet was, why there was no air conditioner...

The dormitory door was pushed open.

"Still sleeping?" Shen Zhe put the plastic bag he was carrying on the table beside Jiang Tianxiao's bed, brought out the cold noodles inside, and started eating by himself.

"I haven't fallen asleep, it's too noisy." Jiang Tianxiao wiped the sweat on his back—he was shirtless, and his skin was sticky from sweating, and the mat under him was also sticky.

"Xiao Xianrou, I'm excited to go to college." Shen Zhe took a sip of the cold noodles and said, "I don't know if the boss will come to Wuhan this semester."

Jiang Tianxiao picked up a shredded cucumber: "Didn't he say that the credits haven't been completed yet?"

"He's only two points short of electives, so he's asking his juniors to help with the class this semester."

"...That's fine too, I'll find a junior where he can find it." Jiang Tianxiao sighed.

"He gave his junior 3000 yuan. If his father hadn't been anxious to let him stay at home to help, he wouldn't have thought of this trick—hey, anyway, 3000 yuan is not considered money to his family."

"Too."

"How many credits are you missing?".

"I'm still short of one professional course and one elective course." Jiang Tianxiao was annoyed thinking about it.

"Professional courses? Damn...won't it be Grandma Huang's political economy?"

"this one."

"My condolences." Shen Zhe patted him on the shoulder.

After Shen Zhe ate the noodles, he went to the dormitory next door to have fun. Jiang Tianxiao sat on the bed in a daze for 5 minutes, not knowing where Shen Zhe bought the cold noodles. It was obviously not the one in the cafeteria. The oil was too heavy for him to eat. Nausea.Coupled with the fact that he was dizzy after sleeping all day, Jiang Tianxiao simply took the shampoo and went to the bathroom to wash his head with cold water.

The water room is in a mess, today is the freshman registration, and they clean the dormitory left by the senior students.

After washing his hair and feeling refreshed, Jiang Tianxiao returned to the dormitory, sat at the desk, and opened the ledger.

He earned 6781 yuan this summer vacation, and sent back 238 yuan. Yesterday he spent 2543 yuan to see a doctor and buy medicine, leaving 703 yuan.Plus the original 3246 yuan, it is [-] yuan.

The credit fee for this semester is very low, so there is no need to rush to work.The money is enough for three months, so I should take advantage of this time to learn English and try to pass CET-[-].

I slept too much during the day and couldn't fall asleep at night.Jiang Tianxiao wiped the sweat from his forehead, and asked Shen Zhe who was on the opposite bed: "How is your job search?"

"Oh shit, don't mention it," Shen Zhe sighed: "My mother insisted on letting me go home, so I didn't bother me to death."

Shen Zhe's family lives in Zibo, Shandong. Although Jiang Tianxiao has never been there, he is also from the north. Gancheng is not far from Shandong, so he can probably imagine what Zibo is like.

"Did the family find you a good job?" Jiang Tianxiao asked.

"Let me go back to work as a civil servant, saying that I have found a good person... and that the house is all ready. Damn, I suspect that they have introduced me to their partners."

Jiang Tianxiao couldn't answer.

"You said what happened when we were wandering outside at a young age. Among other things, at least the south has less smog than the north? I don't know what my parents think! When I have dinner with relatives at home, I just say I mentioned that I want to stay outside for a few years to see the world, and my mother was so anxious, just like my mother was going to Afghanistan to get married."

Jiang Tianxiao was amused by Shen Zhe's description, and after laughing for a while, he said, "Maybe my family feels that our diploma is not enough for a big city?"

Shen Zhe sighed: "Maybe."

After a while, Jiang Tianxiao heard Shen Zhe's regular snoring.

He closed his eyes, thinking about all kinds of things in his mind, none of which was easy.

They are seniors at the beginning of school, and a considerable number of students have found their way out. Those who take the postgraduate entrance examination are struggling with their studies, and those who graduate and work directly. Some of them have found jobs at home, such as Shen Zhe and the boss; If you go from Shanghai to Beijing, or stay in Wuhan, you will always stay in a big city.

Since last month, my mother's monthly drug expenses have increased by more than 300, and it is not certain whether she will suddenly fall ill like she did during the summer vacation, and it will cost a lot of money.

There is also political economics. When I took this course for the first time in my sophomore year, I was directly suspended by Grandma Huang because I missed too many classes due to part-time jobs. I don’t know what to do this time—Grandma Huang has a characteristic. The content is simple, and the key points are given at the end of the semester, so few people get rejected, but once they fail, they are likely to be rejected again next time. I heard that some students did not pass until graduation, and finally only got a diploma.

It was originally an ordinary second book, if you can't even get a graduation certificate...

Jiang Tianxiao pressed his arms over his eyes and sighed wearily.He worked so hard to get into a high school in the city from the countryside, and then from a high school in the city to a university in Wuhan, why—he felt more and more that neither path would work.

The next morning, Jiang Tianxiao went to Grandma Huang's class on time.Although Grandma Huang is called a grandma, she is actually only in her 40s. Her two nasolabial folds are deep and long, making her look old.

"Teacher Huang, I'm... Jiang Tianxiao, I'm going to rebuild." Jiang Tianxiao hesitated for a while, but still felt that he should go over to say hello.

Grandma Huang didn't even lift her eyelids, she was still flipping through the book in her hand, her tone was also cold: "I know you're going to rebuild."

Jiang Tianxiao quickly pretended to be his grandson: "It was my fault before. I have seriously reflected on it. This time... this time I must study hard."

Grandma Huang didn't speak.

"Before, I didn't have a correct attitude. I felt that I didn't need to study hard when I went to college. Teacher, I really know that I was wrong. I apologize to you. I didn't come to your class before. I didn't respect you. I will never respect you again. Will."

Grandma Huang closed the book with a "snap", still not looking at Jiang Tianxiao: "Come on, what kind of virtue are you students, I have known it for so many years, isn't it just now, I am afraid that it will affect your graduation, come and tell me Good words?"

"No, no, no...I really want to apologize to you, I was really wrong, teacher!"

"Okay, let's go."

Jiang Tianxiao shuddered, wondering if this meant he wanted to hang on to me.

I had no choice but to continue repeating those few words mechanically: "Before... it was indeed my attitude that was bad. I sincerely apologize to you, teacher, I..."

"What are you doing?" Grandma Huang interrupted Jiang Tianxiao, "I'm leaving."

After speaking, he picked up his bag and walked away quickly in high heels.

Jiang Tianxiao stood there expressionless, watching her back disappear around the corner.

Jiang Tianxiao was the only one left in the empty classroom, and the clock on the wall was clicking.Jiang Tianxiao slapped the table fiercely, then sat down slumped.Putting his palm on his forehead, Jiang Tianxiao let out a long sigh.

"Don't you still have an elective at four o'clock in the afternoon?" Shen Zhe looked at Jiang Tianxiao who was still lying on the bed and said, "It's already 45:[-]."

"I'm not feeling well... Anyway, the electives are not strict, so forget it." After returning to the dormitory at noon, the fever flared up again, and taking antipyretics didn't seem to help.
