Tong Tong did a good job in the exam, but as soon as Geng Xiaoqing's grades came out, the whole street was in full swing. Not only did she get the first place in the No. 15 Middle School, but she was also the third place in Hong Kong City. When the teacher told her good news, she did not show too many surprises, but said calmly: "Teacher, can I apply to Peking University, right?"

Looking at the 15th Middle School, in addition to the pair of suffering "brothers and sisters" in Xingfu Village, the one who attracted the most attention should be Teacher Meng. Among all the teachers, she has the least qualifications, but five people passed the first class when she led this fresh class. The rumor of discussion came again, and some people said sourly that having money at home is good, being beautiful is good, and even the classes randomly assigned are the best.

With just a few words, all Teacher Meng's efforts were wiped out. But Teacher Meng didn't care anymore. Anyway, she had resigned, and no matter how good the student did in the exam, it had nothing to do with her. After the results came out, she never came back from Japan. Tong Tong wanted her to point out the direction in the future, but filling out her application is imminent, and it seems that she can't count on her anymore.

Tong Tong complained a little about her. On the night of the results announced, he and Geng Xiaoqing were lying on the table and studying how to fill out their application. Geng Xiaoqing's goal was very clear. She kept saying that she wanted to study business and study abroad with scholarships in the future. After returning from gilding, she would become a powerful shopping mall strong woman and make a lot of money.

Tong Tong held the pencil and frowned: "Xiaoqing, why do you know what you want so much? I am really confused when I see so many schools and so many majors."

"You're a fool! How do you know what a popular major is?"

“I want to learn computers.”

Geng Xiaoqing shook his head: "Then you will have to be a programmer in the future, stupid and boring!"

"But I heard that programmers are very focused and charming when writing code."

"Tsk! Who said programmers are charming? It must be what Teacher Meng said!"

Tong Tong was stunned. This girl was too smart.

"Hey, Shuizhu, please go to Beijing with me! I'll help you choose a school and a major. We can meet often and have a care in Beijing. OK?"

"But Teacher Qi from the tutoring class said that I can't go to a good school in Beijing at all. If I go to Beijing, my score would be a pity."

Geng Xiaoqing pulled his hair irritably: "You, except Teacher Meng, but Teacher Qi, what am I? Am I the one you are closest to?"

Tong Tong touched her head: "But they are adults, experienced people who have experienced it."

Geng Xiaoqing didn't give up and looked at the universities in the surrounding cities, and insisted on getting closer to Tong Tong. Tong Tong changed the subject and asked, "Where did you think Sun Ping'an will apply for the exam?"

"I must be with his girlfriend!"

The top scorer in science in Hong Kong City fell on Sun Ping'an without any suspense. The second place is probably Hao Mengyuan! However, people have always only cared about the top scorer, and almost no one can remember who the second place is.

Sun Ping'an helped him several times. After filling out the application form, Tong Tong wanted to say thank you to Sun Ping'an himself. Perhaps Sun Ping'an would like an extraordinary hermit, with his hands behind his back, nodded slightly, and smiled indifferently: "Hello, don't be polite."

When Tong Tong thought of that scene, he laughed out loud. Geng Xiaoqing sighed and said, "I haven't become a programmer yet, I'm already stupid!"

Even though he had already thought of it, Tong Tong called Sun Ping'an and expressed his gratitude to him. Sun Ping'an indeed calmly congratulated him and refused his invitation: "We should have helped each other, so there is no need to treat you to dinner. Let's talk about it when you receive the admission letter!"

Yes, now the grades are just coming out, and it is not certain where to get the exam. It is not until the admission letter is received. Tong Tong thought that in addition to Sun Ping'an, Teacher Meng, Teacher Qi, and a few of his good friends, they are all worthy of thanking. Old Tong said that he had prepared the money for treating guests for a meal long ago, so Tong Tong didn't have to worry about it.

Lao Tong is becoming more and more like a father, but Tong Tong is still thinking about his biological parents. He feels sorry for Lao Tong like this. But he remembered what Lao Tong said, and he vaguely felt that his adoptive father knew something.

Teacher Meng did not come back. With the help of Qi family, Tong Tong basically gave his volunteers. He was in a daze and agreed to whatever Qi family said. Qi family sighed and said, "I really don't know what you are good at. There is a student from No. 2 Middle School who was like you. He wandered around for two years and caught up in the last year, which was about the same score as you."

"oh……"

"Although they are usually careless, their goal is to apply for a military academy. Because he admired his neighbor's brother, who was the first in science at No. 2 Middle School and finally went to a military academy. Of course, that elder brother is a well-known alumnus of our school, and I have heard of his deeds. He went back to Hong Kong City to give a report last year, and classmate Zhao firmly believed that he must follow the elder brother, get into the military academy, and be an elite in the most elite troops. He did a good job in the exam, probably getting what he wanted!"

Tong Tong vaguely remembered that classmate, as if his surname was Zhao! Both of them had won the "Tsinghua University" Study Progress Award and were often praised by teachers. During the Spring Festival, his sister brought him over, and the tutoring class was also signed up for him. I heard that his sister learned to draw and had a strong artistic atmosphere.

Tong Tong said blankly: "I envy him. I don't have a brother next door like a beacon in life, nor my sister who enrolls me in class... Although my grades have met the standards, I am still confused about what to do next."

...

The Qi family did not criticize him, but said patiently: "It doesn't matter, you have to make the road yourself, so do I. You have to grow up to be clearer about what you want. Without a guide, you should be your guide and then become someone else's guide."

Tong Tong smiled gratefully and looked at the admission brochure seriously. But as he looked, he became distracted.

Is she still in Japan? What is she doing? When will she come back? What kind of person does she… want him to be?

In the middle of the night, he sat in the yard in a daze, looking at the sky for a long time. The port city was near the sea and when the fog was heavy, he could hardly see any stars. A few stars were twinkling in the clouds. I wonder if there were his parents there?

Old Tong sat in the main hall, spreading out the notepad that Tong Tong gave him, and listing the list of treats to him. He looked out, Tong Tong's back was filled with sadness.

Old Tong watched the room, paced back and forth for several steps, and finally walked to Tong Tong and said, "Let you not worry about tuition. I will give you the bank card. The Zhang family has not used up all the money I have compensated. I will save a little in every month, which is almost 5,000 yuan. You can work for a few days during the summer vacation and earn some living expenses."

After saying that, Lao Tong added: "My health is better than before. I can clean the workshop. It costs 2,000 yuan a month. If you are too tired, it's okay not to work, and I can make enough money."

Tong Tong passively took the bank card, and the adoptive father in front of him smiled kindly, and obviously had a pleasing meaning.

Is the adoptive father worried that he will find his biological parents? Is he giving him a bank card, and is he trying to take back his intention to find his parents?

My adoptive father is so kind to him, but he is dedicated to finding his parents. Is this considered betrayal?

Tong Tong forced a smile: "Dad, I can earn my living expenses by myself, and I can work by myself when I go to college. But you have to be more at ease and don't get tired of my health."

"Oh, anyway...you can do what you can, and you can keep your bank card, don't drop it."

Did your adoptive father love him from the bottom of his heart? Or did he see that he has a bright future and want to keep him firmly by his side so that he can take care of him for his old age and see him to see him to live?

After all, Tong Tong was his last support.

Tong Tong felt a sense of sadness in his heart, for him and for Lao Tong. He stared at the bank card and asked, "Dad, tell me the truth, do you really don't know about my biological parents?"

Old Tong said seriously: "I can swear to the heaven, I really don't know. Your grandmother is watching in the heaven. If I lie, let her punish me."

"What if they die..."

Lao Tong's mouth moved, and perhaps a hint of joy flashed through his eyes. Humans are very strange that other people's misfortunes may become their own luck.

Old Tong tried to remain calm and said, "Who did you hear? Are you that class teacher?"

"No, she didn't tell me anything, I guessed it myself."

"Um..." Old Tong lowered his head. If his biological parents were not dead, would he still feel a little disappointed? He looked up at the sky and sighed: "If you stay in this home, I will support you; if you leave, I will not keep you, but don't contact you again in the future."

After saying that, Old Tong didn't even give him time to shout "Dad" and turned around and returned to the house. Finally, his back became as lonely as Tong Tong's.

Tong Tong was also helpless. Can he blame him for all this? He turned on his phone and it was already past nine o'clock. An hour ago, Gao Xiaobao sent him a message saying that he had paid his salary and wanted to invite him to have a skewer.

During that time, Gao Xiaobao occasionally followed him to Sun Chengcai's house to eat and drink. He was always shameless about eating, but the Sun family was hospitalized and never shook him down. After learning about his life experience, Sun's mother wiped her tears and said, "If you want to eat meat in the future, you will come to my aunt's house. There is enough meat at home."

Gao Xiaobao was moved and wanted to cry. Tong Tong patted his shoulder and said, "Auntie is famous for being enthusiastic. There are no curtains in our primary school classroom, which is so sunny. The aunt held a parent-teacher meeting and recorded this matter. After a few days, the curtains were prepared. In primary school, our class is the only class with curtains."

Gao Xiaobao burst into tears and said, "Auntie, when I get my salary, I will definitely treat you to something delicious."

It seems that Gao Xiaobao is also a person who keeps his word. He wants to treat him after paying his salary. Tong Tong felt a little relieved and said, "Save the money first! When I receive the admission notice, you can invite me to dinner."

"Okay, then that's settled."
