July 7 is the day of the college entrance examination, and it is also the beginning of the hottest season of the year, and it is about to fall into ambush.

The weather was surprisingly good that day, before six o'clock, the bright sky had already penetrated through the window lattice and fell on the face of the sleeping man.

Before the alarm clock rang, Yuan Xia opened his eyes, thinking that he would have an exam today, so he didn't want to go back to sleep, and got up to get ready!

Recently, Yuandong was afraid of affecting his brother's sleep, so he took the initiative to ask to go home and make a bed on the floor.

Yuan Xia opened the door and came out, saw Ma Jianshe sitting on the bluestone steps in a daze, heard the sound of the door opening, turned to look over, with a mournful face: "I had a nightmare all night, I dreamed that I couldn't do all the exam questions, I woke up with fright. What should I do? This omen is too bad!"

Yuan Xia comforted him with a smile: "Dreams are always reversed. It's impossible not to know how to do all the questions. You will definitely pass the exam. Come on!"

It is said that it doesn't matter what kind of dream you have, what matters is what the person who interprets your dream says.In fact, it was just a psychological hint, and Yuan Xia naturally wouldn't add fuel to the nightmare.

As expected, Ma Jianshe was comforted, stood up, and patted the ashes on his buttocks: "You are right, it is impossible to not be able to do all the questions, come on!"

Yuan Xia knew that Ma Jianshe did not pass the exam this time, he was admitted to the technical secondary school after repeating the study for a year, but how could he tell him this.

The two returned home by bike, and their respective families had prepared a hearty breakfast.

What Yuan Dehou prepared for Yuan Xia were two eggs and a big bowl of hand-rolled noodles with meat whistle.The old man sleeps less and wakes up at dawn, knowing that today is the grandson's big day, so he prepares a hearty breakfast.

Yuan Xia smiled and said, "Grandpa, I can't eat so much."

The bowl of noodles is a large bowl, and there are at least five taels of noodles in this bowl.

Yuan Dehou said: "Why can't I eat? When I was young, I had a bigger appetite than you. I can eat eight steamed buns in one meal, and I can drink porridge for two nights before I am almost full."

Chongyang raised his head and looked at his grandpa: "Grandpa, you are such an idiot, I can only eat two."

Yuan Dong rapped on his younger brother's head: "Are you a fool? How can an idiot describe his family members? That's a curse word."

Yuan Chun protested: "Second brother, don't hit Yang Yang on the head, it will really make him look like a fool."

Yuan Xia looked at his younger brothers and sisters who didn't sleep in early in the morning, and smiled: "Yangyang brings a bowl, I'll share some noodles with you."

Yuan Dehou said: "Don't give it to him, you will have energy for the exam when you are full. I rolled a lot of noodles this morning, and everyone has a share. We will eat it later."

Yuan Xia said: "Grandpa, if you eat too much, you will easily fall asleep and lose your mind."

Yuan Dehou's eyes widened: "How can there be such a saying!"

Yuan Xia said with a smile: "This is based on science. After eating, the blood is concentrated in the stomach for digestion, and the blood supply to the brain is insufficient, so it is not so clear. This is usually the case when you are full and sleepy. Grandpa, you You don’t want me to function abnormally because I’m too full? Go, Yangyang, bring a bowl.”

Yuan Dehou was skeptical, but he didn't object.

Chongyang saw that his grandfather was silent, so he went to get the bowl, he had already smelled the noodles, and was so greedy that he swallowed a lot of saliva.

Yuan Xia set aside a small bowl of noodles for Chongyang and gave his younger brother an egg, and then he ate it by himself.

After eating and drinking enough, Yuan Xia checked the exam items and went out with Ma Jianshe.

The adults and children of the two families all stood at the door and watched them: "Brother (Xia Xia, Jianshe) come on! I wish you all the best and get your name on the gold list!"

Ma Jianshe glanced back and said, "Why do I feel like the wind is rustling and the water is cold?"

Yuan Xia couldn't help laughing: "We're not that tragic, let's start all over again."

Of course, these words are for Ma Jianshe, he won’t repeat the exam, it’s a big deal, he’s still on the old path of his life.

Their examination room is in their own school, and the college entrance examination center in Suyang is located in the county seat. Candidates from high schools in various villages and towns, as well as educated youths who apply for the examination, all gather here.

After the resumption of the college entrance examination, a large number of educated youths who went to the countryside applied for the exam, trying to return to the city through this channel.

The number of applicants is very large. This is the third year of the resumption of the college entrance examination. There are still many educated youths applying for the exam, and the competition is extremely fierce.

Although the examination room management is not as strict as later, it is still very strict.

The weather is hot, and there are no fans in the classroom. Except for stationery and exam admission tickets, you can't bring anything else, so you can only rely on your hands if you want to fan the wind.But the exam is so tense, there is no time to fan the wind.

Often after an exam, the stools you sit on are all wet.

Every exam is a double test of body and mind.

Chinese, physics, mathematics, chemistry, politics, foreign languages, Yuan Xia won them one by one.

On the 9th, the weather finally changed. There was a heavy rain in the early morning, which filtered out a lot of the heat, and the last two exams were spent in the cool.

After the exam, Yuan Xia returned home, ate a bowl of cold noodles, took a cold shower, and fell asleep.

From the time it was not dark until after six o'clock the next morning, I slept for nearly 12 hours before finally recovering.

Yuan Xia was very satisfied in her heart. Although the college entrance examination was almost skinned, she felt that the circle of life had been added. A life without the college entrance examination is not complete.

He thinks that the exam is not bad, and there are only a very small number of people who can't do it.

After finishing the college entrance examination, Yuan Xia had to think about making money.

Grandpa has done a lot of things in the past six months. In addition to carpentry, he has sold melon seeds and pancakes. After the hot weather, he started selling popsicles. As long as he can make money, he is willing to try.

It was really difficult for him. He didn't ride a bike on such a hot day, and walked around the streets with a foam incubator on his back, measuring every inch of the streets and alleys in Suyang.

The children felt sorry for grandpa and felt that it was too hard.

Yuan Dehou didn't care about it: "What is this? We are farmers, we are not born in the sun, we can still work in the field in summer, and there is no shelter at all. I go to the street to sell popsicles, and I can pick them up in the shade. Walk."

Yuan Dong said: "Grandpa, I'm already on summer vacation. I'll sell popsicles in the future, and you can rest at home. I ride a bicycle. Anyway, my brother doesn't need a car during the holidays."

Yuan Dehou didn't want him to go: "You hot, you can't let me go, baby."

"Why can't I go? You make me so! I'm 12 years old, and I'll be a junior high school student after summer vacation. I can sell it." Yuan Dong insisted, and looked at Yuan Xia again, "Brother, what do you think?"

Yuan Xia looked at the pair of stubborn grandparents and grandchildren: "Let Dongdong go."

Yuan Qiu at the side said: "Brother, let me go."

Yuan Xia said to Yuan Qiu: "Xiao Qiu, you can't go. You are too weak, what if you get heatstroke?"

Yuan Qiu said: "I'm completely recovered now. I run 1000 meters every day as you said, and I haven't even sneezed recently."

Yuan Xia looked at Yuan Qiu whose face was indeed much rosier, and said: "That's not okay, girls are like this, don't do this. The sun is so big, it's okay for boys to get tanned, but girls can't be too dark."

Yuan Qiu protested in a low voice: "Isn't it only healthy when it's dark?"

Yuan Xia smiled and said, "That's not the point. The main thing is that girls are easily bullied outside. If you run into a hooligan, how do you deal with it?"

Yuan Qiu is timid, quiet and beautiful, just the object of admiration for young people with exuberant hormone secretion.It's too late for Yuan Xia to drive away the bees and butterflies, so how could she be allowed to go out and be bullied.

Yuan Chun on the side said: "That's right, my sister and I went shopping yesterday, but we were stopped by a man."

Yuan Xia turned to look at her sister: "Who is it? Why haven't you guys mentioned it before?"

Yuan Dong became excited: "Which gangster is it? Brother and I will teach him a lesson!"

Yuan Qiu blushed, and hurriedly argued: "No one, not a hooligan. That person is my classmate, and he said a few words to me."

Yuanchun said: "He also gave my sister a letter."

Yuan Qiu not only blushed, but also his ears and eyes were red: "I confiscated it."

Yuanchun added: "Well, my sister didn't want it. The man kept chasing after me, and we were so scared that we ran back quickly without buying anything."

Yuan Xia saw that Yuan Qiu had started to cry, and quickly reached out to touch her head: "Xiao Qiu, don't cry, what are you crying for? My brother and grandpa didn't say anything about you. It's not a wrong thing, even if you accept it, it's fine." Er. Chuner, from now on, you can’t speak in half, you have to finish what you say. If you don’t finish what you say, you will accidentally hurt others, you know?”

Yuan Chun didn't expect to tell the truth, which actually caused her sister to cry, and she was also shocked. At the age of nine, she still didn't quite understand the pros and cons of it, so she could only nod her head and said timidly: "I know. I'm sorry, sister, I was wrong." She stretched out her hand to pull the corner of Yuanqiu's clothes.

Yuan Qiu wiped his tears with his hands: "It's okay."

When Yuan Xia was educating his younger siblings, Yuan Dehou never interrupted.He felt that he was too old to know what young people think now.

Yuan Xia has always had a big brother Fan Er, who educates his younger siblings well and conscientiously, and convinces others with reason. Yuan Dehou feels that he is a better educater than himself.

So the matter of selling popsicles was settled like this, and it was handed over to Yuan Dong to sell.

Yuan Xia is not worried about Yuan Dong's safety issues. There are few vehicles in this era, and there will be almost no traffic accidents, so just ask Yuan Dong to pay more attention.

Yuan Xia has long been thinking about what to do to make money during the summer vacation. There are many ways to make money, opportunities are everywhere, but if you don't pay attention, you will step on the red line.If there is any more, the stability of the supply of goods must be solved. After thinking about it, he decided to go out with Ma Anmin.

Ma Anmin would often drive out to deliver goods, and traveled to many places. Yuan Xia wanted to leave Suyang, go to Jianning or even cross the city.

In order to facilitate the work, he asked Ma Anmin to help him open a letter of introduction from the factory, so that people would not doubt him because of his tender face.

On the third day after the college entrance examination, Yuan Xia went out with Ma Anmin, and Ma Jianshe went with him.

Ma Jianshe followed to learn how to drive.

The car is the valuable property of the public. It needs to burn oil and wear and tear, so it is definitely not allowed to drive around casually.

Ma Jianshe wants to learn how to drive, so he can only follow the car. He can't go there when delivering goods, but can only follow when pulling materials, because the technicians have to follow when delivering goods, and need to assemble the machine and teach the buyer how to use the machine.

They were going to Yuecheng this time, and Yuan Xia was very much looking forward to this trip, and was even very excited, because Ma Anmin went to Yuecheng Bearing Factory.

He used to know Yu Xingyi at the bearing factory. I don't know if he will be able to meet him. He should be in Yuecheng at this time.

Suyang is 150 kilometers away from Yuecheng. If there is a highway in later generations, it will take more than an hour to get there. However, the current road conditions with potholes and asphalt roads are not popular. It may not be possible to drive in three hours, and it may even take four or five. Hours.

They set off early in the morning, intending to arrive in Yuecheng before noon to avoid the high temperature period.There is no air conditioner in the car. On such a hot day, it is equivalent to sitting in a steamer. People will not be able to bear it, and the car is prone to break down.

As soon as he got out of the city, Ma Jianshe wanted to drive, but Ma Anmin refused to let him go, saying: "We will wait until we reach Yuecheng. There are rice fields and rivers on both sides of this road. If we drive below the road surface, where can I find someone to tow the car?"

Ma Jianshe didn't ask any more, and happily told Yuan Xia how he learned to drive last time, and finally said: "Yuan Xia, do you want to learn with us too?"

Yuan Xia didn't wait for Ma Anmin to express his opinion, he smiled and said: "Okay." He can drive, not only has a C license, but also a B license, but he has to pretend to learn.

Ma Anmin answered: "Then Yuan Xia will learn along with him. But you can't learn to drive for a while, you have to drive a few more times, so take your time."

Driving is a highly sought-after technical job these days. People who are not well-connected are unwilling to teach it. To learn to drive, you have to learn from a teacher, who asks the teacher to smoke and drink.

But Ma Anmin made up his mind to take care of the Yuan Xia brothers and sisters, so naturally he wouldn't hide it.

"Then I will trouble Uncle Ma." Yuan Xia said with a smile.

The vehicle was bumpy, and the road surface was washed away by the heavy rain. It took a long time to return to the right road.

With this delay, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon when they arrived in Yuecheng. There was no air conditioner in the car, and they could only open the windows to ventilate. Disgraced.

After dinner at a state-run restaurant, Ma Anmin stayed in a hotel he was familiar with.

The Ma family father and son washed their faces and went straight to bed.

Yuan Xia didn't want to go to bed without taking a shower, so she simply washed up and went out for a stroll.

This is the advantage of being young, no matter how hard you work, you will be vigorous.
