When the dance music started, Xu Shaojie took Zheng Yuxin to slide into the dance floor. Zheng Yuxin's dance was very good and skillful. Xu Shaojie didn't struggle at all. This is how he danced ballroom dance. With those with good skills, his skills improved quickly. Xu Shaojie and Zheng Yuxin were the first to enter the dance floor, which caused a burst of awesomeness. Liu Hong, who was on the side, was so angry that his face turned pale when he saw this situation. He thought that the first song entered the dance floor and compared Xu Shaojie, but unexpectedly, Xu Shaojie was still in the limelight.

Xu Shaojie in the dance floor did not expect this. He was a little unfamiliar at first. After all, it was his first time dancing with a girl. However, Zheng Yuxin danced so well. Xu Shaojie quickly stopped being nervous. With Zheng Yuxin, the dance postures of both of them were very standard, which attracted a lot of attention. Even some seniors had a look of appreciation in their eyes.

At the end of the dance music, Zheng Yuxin's face turned slightly red and her palms were sweating. Xu Shaojie didn't pay attention to these for the time being. He focused all his attention on how to dance. As a novice, this kind of reaction is normal. Zheng Yuxin is different. She is skillful in dancing and can observe the situation around her at any time. She saw the eyes of her classmates, and she also understood the deep meaning. Therefore, Zheng Yuxin's later thoughts were not on dancing at all.

Next, Xu Shaojie and Zheng Yuxin danced three songs in a row. Gradually, they became the focus of everyone's attention. In the late 1980s, the school was half open, and it was very taboo to talk about friends at this time. It was generally the patent for senior students. Freshmen would not involve this issue at all. Someone had already found out that Xu Shaojie and Zheng Yuxin were both freshmen in the first year. Many students believed that Xu Shaojie and Zheng Yuxin might set a record in the school and started talking about friends in the first year.

After the three songs, Xu Shaojie decisively ended. After saying hello to Zheng Yuxin, he left the cafeteria. Xu Shaojie was very controllable. He found that dancing was very likely to be addicted, and men and women spent a long time together, which could easily cause criticism. Therefore, as long as you know this, you can do it without indulging in it.

"Second Captain Xu, the dance is not over yet, why are you leaving? Besides, you and Zheng Yuxin cooperate so well, why don't you dance a few more songs, which will shock those seniors."

"I can already jump, that's fine. I'm comparing with the seniors, and I'm not interested."

Xu Shaojie's answer surprised everyone.

The entire accommodation building was very quiet, and most of the students went to the cafeteria. Today, Saturday and weekend, the students who did not go to dance also went to the street to play. Xu Shaojie returned to the dormitory and felt very quiet. If Ma Jianhua and Du Yuxin hadn't come back with him, he would have thought there would be no one in the entire building.

"Squad Leader Xu, I can see that you have a lot of girls who like your appearance and figure in the future. Compared with you, our comrades in the dormitory are all disabled. It's so sad. Sun Yong, who has a better figure, is another broken gong. Oh, it's still very sad to be in the same dormitory as you."

"Du Yuxin, I can't stand the confidence and hypocritical depth of your Shanghainese. I carried me into a sedan chair and bumped around. What are the benefits for you? What age is it? I thought it was Dong Yong and the Seven Fairies. What I value now is strength. After graduation in the future, you return to Shanghai, Ma Jianhua returns to Beijing, and I return to the small county town. At that time, the difference between us was in the sky and the ground. I'm afraid that all the Seven Fairies would run away with you."

"Squad Leader Xu, you are so honest. You are just a freshman. You know how your future development will be. Maybe you will stay in Xilin City directly, and we may not be able to go back."

"Ma Jianhua and Du Yuxin, so if you don't strengthen your studies, go to the library to take a look. I don't know how many messages are carved on the table. I also asked indirectly. There is no special situation, and usually I go back and forth. We graduated from the Chinese department, either teach or go to administrative agencies. There are more opportunities to stay in big cities, but do you think I am a teacher? So, I have been ready to return to my hometown to devote my youth."

"Squad Leader Xu, we really admire you. We can see through it. I guess all the comrades in our dormitory are the most pragmatic and learn from you. People say that we are the pride of heaven and the people in the ivory tower, but following you, there is no bullshit, just like calculating the future of the common people."

A broken gong outside the dormitory appeared. Xu Shaojie, Ma Jianhua and Du Yuxin looked at each other. After getting drunk, Sun Yong seemed to have suddenly become aware of his hometown tunes from time to time. These days, the comrades in the dormitory really couldn't stand it anymore, and the people in the other dormitory also expressed their opinions, saying that Sun Yong's voice was so swollen. However, in a dormitory, everyone still took care of Sun Yong's emotions and pretended to praise him. Now, Sun Yong was excited and often sang loudly. Everyone wanted to block his ears with cotton and lament that he would not live.

"My comrades, how did I sing? By the way, there is also a song from my hometown. I just remembered. Let me listen to it and comment. Let me tell you that the song from my hometown is now a cultural heritage. The county and region are collecting it quickly. If I sing it well, it will be considered to be a contribution to my hometown."

"Sun Yong, wait a moment, I'll tell you something, you'll sing after listening to it."

Sun Yong widened his eyes and looked at Xu Shaojie, not knowing what Xu Shaojie was going to say.

"This singing is knowledgeable. You see, those singers nowadays pay attention to protecting their voices. If you don't pay attention to protection and sing constantly, it will definitely not work. So, you have to pay attention to protecting your voice. There are books on this aspect in the school library. I remember that it is said that you can't sing for more than an hour every day, otherwise your voice will be destroyed and you can't sing it in the future. You can't contribute to your hometown."

"Squad Leader Xu, how did you know?"

"Sun Yong, look at what you said, we are comrades in the same dormitory. These days, you suddenly have the passion to sing. I thought that you may do in-depth development or exploration in this area in the future. I went to the library to specifically check the information on this area. Anyway, it was said by experts. I don't know if it is like this."

Xu Shaojie said it very seriously. Ma Jianhua and Du Yuxin originally thought Xu Shaojie was joking. Later, they also widened their eyes and looked at Xu Shaojie. Xu Shaojie looked serious on the surface and laughed in his stomach. However, he must not show his confusion, otherwise, Sun Yong's singing would torture everyone.

"Squad Leader Xu, thank you very much. I must pay attention to when I will go to the library to read it. By the way, do you still remember the name of that book?"

"I can't remember this clearly. You can find it yourself, it's about vocal music anyway."

Xu Shaojie was secretly playing, and when Sun Yong finished reading vocal music books and was about to graduate from college, he could finally get less torture in his ears. One hour a day, Sun Yong used up during the day and became quiet at night.

"What did you just say? I look so serious."

"We talk about our future plans. Squad leader Xu is a pragmatic person, which has caused our dormitory to become pragmatic persons. Without the romantic mood, it is really sad for Chinese students to become like this."

"It's a shame, I'm also a pragmatic person. I grew up in a small county. My biggest wish is to have a good job, it doesn't matter if I teach, I have a stable income, get married and have children, anyway, it's like this for the rest of my life."

Xu Shaojie, Ma Jianhua and Du Yuxin looked at Sun Yong and didn't believe that this was what Sun Yong said. Xu Shaojie felt strange that he still had dreams. Why is this Sun Yong so realistic and more realistic than himself?

"See what I do. My parents are both teachers. I don't know how many students they have taught. My mother teaches junior high school, and my dad teaches high school. Seeing so many students, going to college, going to technical secondary school, and finally not working and supporting the family. When I first went to high school, I didn't know how many students from my dad came to my home. They were all college students, passionate and chatting about the world. Finally, I returned to the county town and worked honestly. So, this is the case for the rest of my life, don't look at the mystery. I just feel a little dissatisfied. My dad and Lao Ma often don't get their salary. Sometimes it takes a long time to delay the salary. I am the eldest and four younger brothers and sisters at home. So, after I graduate, I don't want anything else, start working early, and reduce the burden on my family."

Xu Shaojie was a little silent. Every family had difficult scriptures to recite. After all, it was a minority of students. Many students still had difficulties at home, let alone those from the countryside.

"Squad Leader Xu, I admire you. You have money and live a relaxed life. I can't even think about the cigarettes in Hongta Mountain. Oh, I remembered it, Squad Leader Xu, send cigarettes, don't hide the good cigarettes."

Xu Shaojie was angry. After talking about it, he was still thinking about his packs of Hongtashan cigarettes. After everyone lit the cigarettes, they continued to chat. Perhaps the chat in this dormitory was unique at Xilin University, because most college students were very proud and believed that they could change the world. Such pragmatic freshmen such as Xu Shaojie and Sun Yong were also considered a miracle at Xilin University.

"I'm going to tell you, the conditions in my hometown in Shaanxi are poor. In addition to being able to eat enough, my relatives in the countryside have not worn new clothes a year and cigarettes from Hongtashan. They have never seen the pigs they feed themselves and are reluctant to eat, so they are sold for money. Children need money to study and pay taxes. There are no spare money. There are many young people in the family, and most of them go to work in the south. Many of them go out after graduating from junior high school. I often hear my father say that farmers are really hard, although I don't understand very much.

Once, I said that I was studying hard, and I was admitted to university, which changed the fate of the peasants. My father slapped me in the face and said that I don’t know that the world is high. Now that I come to the school, I can’t stand those who are talking big. We all know that it’s better to get up and do it instead of sitting and talking. I don’t believe that we can change our destiny. If we have great abilities, we have to have a meal. Ma Jianhua and Du Yuxin, I actually envy you. Those who are big cities will definitely be able to live a good life in the future.”

Xu Shaojie shook his head, thinking that Sun Yong was too pessimistic, and went to another extreme.

"Sun Yong, you are too pessimistic. We all know that knowledge changes destiny. Isn't there another saying? Heaven moves forward and gentlemen strive for self-improvement. We are all gentlemen. Of course we have to struggle. Maybe the ending in the future will not be very beautiful, but we have finally worked hard and will not regret it. Listening to what you say, it seems that you have given up everything. Leave it to fate. I don't agree with your idea. What I said is pragmatic is not what you mean."

At this moment, Ma Jianhua, Du Yuxin and Sun Yong looked at Xu Shaojie again.

"Looking at what I do, I didn't say anything big. What I said was pragmatic is based on my own reality. For example, if I am a farmer, I want to plant good land, and secondly, I want to make money and make life better. If I am a cadre, I want to do a good job, at least I deserve my salary, and the purpose is to live a good life. If I am a teacher, I will teach well and have many students all over the world."

The three of them all had contempt expressions on their faces.

"Second Captain Xu, you are nonsense. Everyone knows that these words are lying to primary school students."

"You guys listen to me, the focus is on the back, and the front is on the groundwork."

Sun Yong spoke up because he was not so angry.

"Class Leader Xu, we are college students. You don't need to teach elementary school knowledge. What kind of preparation is it? You're talking nonsense, hurry up, oh, the cigarette is gone, take it out, what are you doing in your pocket? Take it out quickly, don't be too stingy."

Xu Shaojie had no choice but to take out the cigarette.

"Then I won't go into details. My main meaning is that things are human-made. We are freshmen and have a few years left. We can always find ways to design our own future. For example, if you want to teach, learn Chinese well, and learn philosophy well if you want to be a cadre. Of course, if you think about other things, I don't know what to learn."

Ma Jianhua nodded, as if he understood, and he spoke.

"These sentences make sense. I want to be the Secretary-General of the United Nations and the Chief Xu. What should I learn?"

"Go to you, I don't know. Go and ask the Secretary-General of the United Nations to see what he has learned."

Everyone laughed and ended the discussion about the future. However, when they were sleeping, Xu Shaojie fell into deep thought. He agreed with Sun Yong's words. People should face reality and sit and talk about it. The truths they said were great, but the real life was harsh. His father's experience reminded Xu Shaojie to pull Xu Shaojie out of the dream. Xu Shaojie thought that college students were nothing great. When he was in the county, when he was in the county, everyone praised his father and said that he was a high level. College students, but what he said was completely different from actual actions. Xu Shaojie often saw his father working over night because his father was a college student. He was capable and those who could work hard. But when it comes to treatment, it was not that the case. People had long forgotten that you were a college student, and the treatment was linked to official positions. Therefore, everyone would say it, the key was whether it could be implemented.

In a daze, Xu Shaojie fell asleep. He dreamed of his father. His father's appearance was particularly clear. He and his father walked slowly on the street. His father was still so silent and melancholy, and kept saying something, but he just couldn't hear it. Seeing his father walking faster and faster, he was very anxious and wanted to catch up, but he couldn't take any steps.

When he woke up, Xu Shaojie found that the pillow was wet. He knew that he must have shed a lot of tears, tears of sadness and longing.
