Shengsheng

Early the next morning, it was less than seven o'clock in the morning.

Last night, I repaired the light bulb in the public toilet for half the night, and someone who didn’t go home until midnight woke up the sound of trabeculae who had to go to the new school to report today.

On the first day of this new semester, compared to most of the children who are still obsessed with their holiday life, it must be the parents who are nervous and excited.

Especially parents like Comrade Liang Sheng who have no culture, but always hope that their children can try their best to win their own praise, are the easiest among them to get overly emotional.

So early in the morning today, the two of them went out together and pushed a tricycle in the vegetable market to have an early breakfast.

Xiao Liangsheng, who was silently following behind him with his schoolbag on his back, heard that he had to brag to at least twenty people about his admission to No. [-] Middle School this time.

"Hey, Brother Wang, is the fish sold this morning? Are the river prawns fresh today? Huh? Where am I going now? I have to come back later, but now I have to send Shengsheng to school?"

"What school do you go to? Sister Liu, you don't know, our family has been admitted to the No. [-] Middle School! Yes, it's the famous No. [-] Middle School! Most people can't get into the exam. Isn't it too bad?"

"Hey, Haixia! Haixia! Have you eaten breakfast yet? Brother, treat you to eat, have you listened to others? My family is admitted to No. [-] middle school!"

Trabecula's voice: "..."

If it weren't for knowing that he was only 11 years old this year, Xiao Liangsheng would have thought that he was going to attend some important occasion today based on how happy the people around him were smiling at the moment.

However, because of his cheerful personality, he likes to talk and laugh, and he can eat very well in the vegetable market, and he often likes to help others with big and small favors.

So Comrade Liang Sheng's nonsensical behavior did not arouse the disgust of the masses. On the contrary, the passing aunts and elder sisters in the vegetable market clapped their hands happily when they heard the words.

"Ah, why is Shengsheng so smart? It's so good, it's so much better than our family's cubs. When we get into a good university, we'll ask your brother Baoxi candy for us to eat hahaha..."" That's right, Xiaosheng is really smart... When you grow up, you'll definitely be the No.

The sound of trabeculae eating breakfast while bowing his head in silence filtered through his ears.

From the beginning to the end, he just held Liang Sheng's hand and followed him around the crowd, occasionally giving a little "hmm" or a good response. For the rest of the strangers, even if they heard him clearly, he was not ready to answer at all.

Fortunately, the neighbors who he didn't know very well with them didn't seem to care about it, they just treated him as a shy child who didn't like to talk, and then he just smiled and chatted casually and left.

Seeing this, Xiao Liang Sheng, who had been habitually avoiding the crowd after such a long time, seemed to be relieved, and after a long time, he raised his eyebrows in relief and let out a soft sigh of relief.

"Hurry up, you're going to be late."

The guy next to Xiao Liang said in such a low voice.

"Oh, okay, okay, let's go, come up, brother will take you to school! I'll be there soon haha, never be late!"

The other party also responded with a smile when he heard the words.

And then, as expected, Liang Sheng, who was carrying him to the back seat on the tricycle, didn't procrastinate anymore, but sent him to school with all his heart and no nonsense.

Instead, he squatted in the tricycle and watched the sound of the trabeculae on the back of his head, which hadn't yet grown roots. He hugged his knees and bowed his head alone, thinking about something.

—Well, about himself.

Speaking of it, it seemed that it hadn't been long for him to take the No. [-] middle school exam.

When he just came back from Hexi, the older one didn't urge the child to read books and do problems at home, taking care of the fact that he might not have recovered emotionally.

But later, seeing that the entrance examination for the No. [-] Middle School in the city closest to home was coming, it was Xiao Liangsheng who began to consciously prepare for the entrance examination one after another.

Because most of this era has the habit of conducting school selection examinations according to regions.

Therefore, the general entrance examination will generally cover subjects such as Chinese, mathematics, English, physics and biology.

Among them, Liang Sheng's own mathematics and physics are not particularly outstanding. In mathematics, even if he listens carefully in class, it is difficult to understand, and the poor are a bit angry.

This is because he seems to be born with a lack of talent in mathematics.

The second reason is that Zhang Chengyuan and Liu Xiu always quarreled and fought at home, so he couldn't finish his homework properly every time after school.

But this language and English can still be handled with talent at least, and the mathematics that needs to be connected with the consolidation of basic knowledge is just a little bit behind.

In view of this, his review and practice methods are very simple. Because he has always been bad at mathematics, he mainly focuses on mathematics this time.

So during that time at home, Xiao Liangsheng, who stayed at home and never went out, almost reread all the golden question types in the last four semester books of the fifth and sixth grades, and even devoted himself to preparing the Mathematical Olympiad questions for nearly two weeks. .

After all, at this moment in 2002, various so-called Mathematical Olympiad exam questions were popular all over the country.

Therefore, if all primary and secondary school students in various places want to pass the entrance examination, most of them have to pass such an examination in advance, and No. [-] Middle School is no exception.

And the reason why it is called Local No. [-] Middle School must be that it is considered a top-notch school in the city in all aspects.

Therefore, this No. [-] Middle School in City Y is no exception. From the perspective of the strength of teachers in all aspects, it is the only way for elementary and middle school students in the city to enter the higher education department of No. [-] Middle School.

I heard that the school not only has a separate small dining hall for students, but also has special musical instrument classes and foreign teachers every Wednesday. Outstanding students can apply for a scholarship system of 200 yuan per month.

In addition, this is only 2002, and there is such a strong teaching background, so this is even more attractive for a public middle school.

Because of this, many local parents even circulated such magical sayings as "Southern Jiangsu is not too big, go to the first middle school and be stable at Nantah University, don't worry about everything, go to Tsinghua University".

It can be seen that this old No. [-] Middle School has an important position in the hearts of the local people.

And once he wants to be admitted to No. [-] Middle School, the first thing he has to face is the Olympiad problem, so this became the difficulty that Liang Sheng wanted to overcome during that period of time.

But this kind of exam questions involves all kinds of strange things, and the question types are even more tricky. For children with poor math foundation, it is indeed a terrible disaster.

In particular, Xiao Liangsheng's mathematics has always been an unspeakable weakness and headache for someone in his previous life, so at the beginning, even the older one couldn't believe that Xiao Liangsheng would really pass the entrance examination of No. [-] Middle School this time.

"Hey, baby, let's not worry, really, just take your time, it's really luck this time, if you don't pass the exam, it's a big deal, get up early and go to No. The tricycle takes you to school and exercises..."

During that time, Liang Sheng, who fanned him every day in front of the small desk to repel mosquitoes, always comforted him like this every time.

Xiaoliang, who was seriously bowing his head to do the questions, would often not make a sound when he heard it, but before the two of them went to bed and washed their feet at night, when they lay on the bed and peeked at each other's calloused feet thicker than nails, he was a little silent again.

In fact, it should be a pair of very young feet.

The skin is fair and clear, with a completely different squeamishness from someone who seems to be able to live on anything, but in order to earn money early to support the family, now these feet, this person looks a little pitiful.

In particular, there was an unsightly red scar on his forehead, which also made Xiao Liangsheng very concerned, and because he cared more and more, he unconsciously wanted to work harder.

He can't afford good clothes, can't afford good food, doesn't look good, and has a strange personality.

But he really loves himself, he is the person who loves him the most besides his parents.

He also said his name was Liang Sheng.

"I'll do my best."

The night before going to No. [-] Middle School to take the exam, Xiao Liangsheng, who was lying next to Liang Sheng with his eyes closed, thought silently in his heart.

The next morning, with everything ready, he took a pencil, an eraser and a ruler, the only three simple stationery he owned, and crowded with more than 2000 primary and middle school students from across the city to participate in the very important event about his first school days. important exam.

This process took almost four hours.

During these four hours, Xiao Liangsheng hardly had the mind to go to the bathroom, and just kept answering the questions in an anxious and urgent mood.

When it came to the last two Olympiad questions with [-] points added, he didn't even notice that the invigilator next to him reminded everyone to pay attention to the time. He kept writing until the bell rang before putting down his pen out of breath.

But who knew, after going home for nearly a month, he practiced more than 600 math problems repeatedly every day, and he really passed this crucial exam. .

It made the two brothers stare wide-eyed when they finally saw the line of names on the red notice board at the entrance of No. [-] Middle School.

It was also because it had been many days since the announcement of the list, so Liang Sheng was able to brag to others with such a complacent attitude just now.

"Sound, sound! You are amazing! You really got into No. [-] Middle School! Ouch... Ouch, my baby, how smart are you! You really look good on me!"

At that time, Liang Sheng's smile was probably the most heartfelt in many days except for the time he found him in Hexi.

Xiao Liangsheng watched quietly and said nothing, but he also seemed to feel a trace of different emotions passing by in his heart.

Fortunately, since then, everything has been realized one by one according to the goals he set for himself.

So even though Liang Sheng was not as excited and excited about going to junior high school in his heart, he still had certain expectations for the next school.

With this in mind, Xiao Liangsheng will definitely not be late for the report on the first day of the new semester.

Parents with red faces are everywhere at the gate of the school where people come and go, and there are many children who have just got rid of the red scarves of the Young Pioneers, but still look like little carrots.

Liang Sheng, who stopped his tricycle at the door, originally wanted to send him to the door of the classroom like most parents.

However, the sound of Xiao Liang, who was carrying a schoolbag and lowered his head, made him laugh with an extremely serious "Hurry up and make money".

And pamperingly rubbed his little head, after thinking about it, he waved goodbye to him and left.

Waiting for Xiao Liang to watch him leave, he prepared to carry the books for the new semester to find a classroom by himself.

Before he could turn around, he felt a slap on the back by a pair of naughty hands.

When he turned his head in doubt, he saw a little naughty boy who he had a vague impression of, holding two lines of clear water and snot, carrying a bag behind him, widening his eyes in surprise and saying,

"Hey! Liang Sheng from Class Six and Eight! It's you! Is it really you? You have passed the No. [-] Middle School this time too!! What a coincidence! My grandma was right! Going out in the morning is going to hit the big luck! So it hit you!"
