212. The same three-year college entrance examination and five-year simulation, but different content
After much hesitation, Li Xiao decided to speak. He first vaguely mentioned how happy he and Jiang Yingxue were. A considerate person like the squad leader would definitely understand what he meant, and the confession that the other party was planning would not be repeated.
Open your mouth.
Yes, that's right, just do this. If you block the other party's path first, then the other party will have no way to go.
There will be no embarrassment if I can't go on, it's perfect, I'm simply a genius.
After all, procrastinating like this is not the answer. If the other party speaks first and then refuses, it will be bad. If he refuses, he probably won't even be friends.
He was just thinking about what kind of opening remarks he should use so as not to appear abrupt, when Cayenne stopped, and Li Xiao looked up in surprise. Although Thirteen Bowls Food Street was very close to Longding Palace, it logically shouldn't arrive so soon.
However, when the conspicuous red light in front of him appeared in front of his eyes, he realized that he was not at a certain place, but that there was a red light.
As Cayenne stopped, Li Xiao saw the squad leader let out a sigh of relief and seemed to have made a lot of determination.
Li Xiao's pupils suddenly dilated. Unexpectedly, it was still too late?
The squad leader turned to Li Xiao and said with a smile
"I'm sorry, I'm so nervous. Sister Ling usually helps me drive. I haven't driven for a long time and I don't dare to talk to you while driving."
"By the way, I wanted to ask: Today is Teacher Huang's birthday. I looked at the circle of friends and it happened to be the day of her retirement. After today, she will no longer teach, so I want to go to the school to see her.
, do you want to go together?”
Teacher Huang?
When Li Xiao heard the name, he immediately understood which teacher Huang the monitor was talking about.
Although there were many teachers who taught the two of them in high school, and there was more than one teacher named Huang, Li Xiao knew who the other person was referring to even without saying his full name. Teacher Huang has always been an exclusive term.
.
"Is Teacher Huang Yu actually old enough to retire?"
Li Xiao spoke hesitantly.
I really didn't expect that time flew by so fast.
The day when the teacher taught everyone is as vivid as yesterday.
The monitor nodded matter-of-factly,
"Yes, it's time to retire. After all, she was already 45 after teaching our class, and now she will be 50 this year in the past five years."
"It happened to be her retirement, but in fact we were the last class she taught. After teaching us, she retired to the first year of high school to teach new students. After all, the pressure of entering the third year of high school is too great, and the teacher's physical condition
It’s no longer suitable to teach senior high school students.”
Li Xiao nodded in agreement. Their high school is a boarding school, and it is a high school in Dongguan that is famous for its strictness.
The students there take the longest classes, study the most exercises, and recruit the most students.
Likewise, the teachers there are just as strict and their workload is much higher than in a normal school.
The third year of high school was even more terrifying. He still remembered the New Year's holiday before the college entrance examination. He took the holiday on the New Year's Eve, took classes on the seventh day of the new year, and spent the eighth day in school.
Although the Education Bureau does not advocate making up classes, it does not prevent students from requesting school teachers for tutoring. After all, this is not required by the school, but by the parents of the students. The school only offers make-up classes reluctantly and has no choice but to do so.
This is the so-called policy and countermeasures, but Li Xiao is actually very grateful that he could go to school early. After all, if he practices more sets of test papers and knows more questions, he will score more points in the college entrance examination than others.
Li Xiao also said before that because their school is a private school, after graduates are admitted to a good school, the school will reward teachers with certain bonuses.
Teacher Huang Yu is the only teacher who will treat you equally regardless of whether you are a poor student or a good student. She has never shown too much favoritism to top students.
As long as you ask her, she will be very happy to teach you, even if it will greatly reduce her time to teach top students. After all, poor students may need to teach the same question 10 times to learn it, while top students may only need to teach it once.
Already.
However, Teacher Huang Yu would never refuse to provide extracurricular tutoring to students with poor grades.
What impressed Li Xiao most about Teacher Huang Yu was that during their college entrance examination, the teacher was actually diagnosed with serious kidney stones.
Originally, the doctor had ordered her to undergo surgery, but considering that she had been teaching the students in the class for more than two years as the class teacher and the main teacher, a sudden change of coach on the eve of the college entrance examination was likely to have a huge impact.
The teacher weighed her own physical health against the test scores and mental state of the 63 children in the class, and resolutely postponed the operation because she would have to be hospitalized after the operation, and she felt that she could not delay the students.
So in the second half of her senior year, Teacher Huang Yu had to take an excessive amount of painkillers every day to stay on the front line, but she always had a smile on her face. The children below, and even most of the teachers, were completely indifferent.
No news about her illness.
As for why everyone knew about this later, it was because Teacher Huang Yu, whom everyone loved the most, did not attend the teacher appreciation banquet. After everyone asked, other teachers revealed the reason.
It turned out that not long after we graduated from the college entrance examination, our teacher was rushed to the Union Medical College Hospital in the capital for emergency surgery. Although the operation was successful, due to the long delay, inflammation appeared in the body, so he was hospitalized and missed everyone's teacher appreciation banquet.
Later, although Teacher Huang Yu took a summer break, her health was not as good as before, and because of her age, she could only return to the first year of high school to take over the class of the new class of students.
At this time, Li Xiao heard the squad leader’s urging,
"Hurry up, the light is about to turn green. Are you going? Or not? If you don't go, I will send you home first, and then I'll go see the teacher."
Li Xiao looked at the flashing red light and said quickly,
"Go ahead, I'm fine anyway, and I haven't seen Teacher Huang for a long time."
The reason why Li Xiao didn't go in the past few years was not because he didn't want to.
Rather, because I feel that I have lost the teacher’s face, not only did I not do well in the exam, my work has not improved at all, and I feel that I have failed the teacher’s hard work.
You know, at that time, only Teacher Huang Yu was willing to teach me so conscientiously.
However, he couldn't even look like a person, and he didn't have any face to go back to see her. However, it was different now. Although he was not successful, he still looked like a person.
Upon hearing Li Xiao's agreement, the squad leader quickly made a 90-degree turn. Cayenne, who was walking in a straight line, quickly turned to the left.
I was so frightened that a thin leather car made in Sakura Country behind me quickly hit the brakes.
Fortunately, it is not the peak traffic period, so there is not much traffic on the road and no accidents were caused.
However, the owner of the Sakura Country car still rolled down the window and cursed wildly. After all, the lane the squad leader was walking in was a straight lane and could only be passed straight through.
I didn't even think about the lane next to me. As I was walking, a car suddenly made a 90-degree turn.
Although the squad leader's Cayenne must be fully responsible for the collision, he did not dare to take risks. After all, the car under him was very thin. As a car owner, he knew very well.
Once the path of death disappears, it's the end of the world.
Seeing the monitor's dangerous driving behavior, Li Xiao subconsciously wanted to criticize him. Even if the target of criticism was the monitor who was kind to him, he would not hesitate.
After all, such behavior is too dangerous. Not only does it put your own life at risk, it also puts other drivers and pedestrians driving on the road in great danger.
However, I saw the squad leader's nervous face, his hands firmly grasping the steering wheel, and his eyes staring straight at the road in front of him.
Li Xiao swallowed a gulp of saliva and swallowed the words that came to his lips. He did not forget what his lovely squad leader said just now.
The reason why there was such a long silence in the car was because she didn't dare to talk distractedly while driving. He couldn't imagine what would happen if he took the initiative to talk to the other person now.
That is true, and you are irresponsible for the lives of pedestrians on the road and yourself.
Li Xiao pulled down the collar of his coat, but a layer of sweat oozed from his body in the winter. I definitely couldn't buy this Cayenne. There were only two people in the car, and it was still winter. The air conditioner
The refrigeration capacity is so poor that it would literally overheat someone to death.
Pulling the zipper, Li Xiao suddenly watched the squad leader turn on the wiper. The wiper on the glass immediately started to move, and at the same time, the car also approached the left lane.
Seeing this scene, his eyelids jumped wildly, and he quickly checked his seat belt. Fortunately, although the air conditioning of this old car was not good, the seat belt was quite strong, and it was probably possible to save his life.
It was a dangerous journey from the Thirteen Bowls Food Street to the high school I used to attend [Donghua High School].
Li Xiao had never thought that riding in a car was such a thrilling thing. With his shivering legs, he held on to the frame and stepped out of the squad leader's Cayenne.
Fortunately, the squad leader's Cayenne was a top-of-the-line model. When people around saw this luxury car that was driving crookedly, fast and slow, and swerving left and right, they all moved out of the way, for fear of getting into trouble.
After all, as long as the other party is not entirely responsible for the accident, you will have to divide the responsibility according to different proportions, which is not worthwhile. After all, although most people have insurance to pay compensation, the premiums will still increase next year.
The squad leader on the other side also had a red face. When she got off the car, she didn't know whether she was ashamed or excited. She patted her flat chest and said to Li Xiao.
"How about it? Is my driving skill good? That sister Jiao Ling also said that I am a road killer and wants my dad to find other drivers to help me drive. But the drivers in the company are all men and I don't want to sit alone with them.
In a car."
Li Xiao suppressed the crazy twitching of the corner of his mouth and praised Sister Ling in his heart. As the other party's life assistant, Sister Ling knew her squad leader well enough.
[Road Killer] is really an appropriate adjective. No, it can no longer be said to be appropriate. This word simply came into being for the squad leader.
Even if he was beaten to death next time and he died on the spot, he would not be willing to take the squad leader's car anymore. After all, if he was beaten to death, he would not have to worry about being cheated.
He asked Didi's driver to only ask for his money and he would take the squad leader's car. Although the squad leader didn't want his money, it was life-threatening!!!
Fortunately, he was lucky enough to arrive at the station safely. Looking at the familiar school gate in front of him, Li Xiao felt a little emotional.
I haven't been back here for five years, and the small shop on the street outside seems to have been frozen in time.
The store that existed five years ago is still open five years later.
[A Baojia] Black pepper beef rib rice with rich flavor, [Huangji herbal tea] Bean curd egg sugar water that costs three yuan a cup, [Wenyi stationery] are still standing, and various exercise books are placed at the door.
Three years of college entrance examination and five years of simulation still helped the show, and even the cover of the test questions was still the same.
Time seems to have returned to 5 years ago in the blink of an eye, and everything is still the same as before. However, Li Xiao understands that in fact, time has passed long ago and many things have changed.
Hei Zai's Cowboy Rib Rice has changed from 13 pieces to 18 pieces, and the cowboy bones in it have also changed from 6 large pieces to 5 small pieces.
Although the price of yuba syrup has not changed, the cups containing the syrup have become smaller year by year.
The sign of Wenyi Stationery has not changed, but the original dazzling blue and white sign has lost its color in the sun and rain.
The three-year college entrance examination and the five-year simulation have the same cover. The year on it has long changed from the original year to today's year. Similarly, the exercises in it have also changed, and the hot topics of the year have also been changed.
One round.
If life is just like the first time we met, why should the autumn wind draw a fan sadly?
But let alone people, even the same items will become different after a period of time. How can living people, people who have experienced various things, remain the same as when they first met?
People are always experiencing, growing, and changing. A friend you haven't seen for a long time may change and become a complete stranger.
Suddenly, the monitor's voice came from the side, interrupting Li Xiao's reverie.
"Let's go, the teacher is about to get off work."
Li Xiao quickly came to his senses and chased after the squad leader who was already walking towards the door.
The two of them arrived in front of the guard room without taking two steps. At this time, Li Xiao came to his senses. Today is only Thursday. Tomorrow, the first and second grade students will start their vacation and they will be able to go to school to pick up their children. What can they do?
How about going in?
However, I saw the monitor and the guard said hello and walked inside naturally.
????
Li Xiao felt that his face was covered with a huge number of question marks. What is going on?
The squad leader who was walking in front saw Li Xiao behind and did not follow him. He turned around and waved to Li Xiao.
"Let's go, what are you doing standing around?"
Li Xiao took a tentative step and leaned half of his body into the iron door.
However, the guard uncle saw Li Xiao wandering in front of him and did not stop him. Instead, he started chatting with his colleagues next to him.
Could it be that the recent school regulations have changed so that outsiders can enter our school to visit at will?
But how is it possible that he can go to Donghua High School, which is famous for its strict management, so how can it have such casual rules?
This was not logical at all. He quickly crossed the iron gate outside the guard room with the other half of his body, took three steps at a time and approached the squad leader and asked strangely.
"Now can we come into our school so casually?"
While he was talking, he looked back at the doorman, who was laughing and chatting with his colleagues.
He didn't seem to be worried at all. What came in were two well-disguised gangsters.
The monitor led the way and said with a chuckle,
"Then how is it possible that you don't know that we used to have to go to the head teacher and grade teacher to approve the leave before we could be released during the holidays? How could there be such an inexplicable rule and let outsiders in so easily?"
Hearing such a matter-of-fact answer from the squad leader, Li Xiao felt that the world was a little unreal.
Please, don't you just bring yourself in easily?
Now they are saying that the management is strict and you cannot come in and out at will??
Did I see it wrong? Even if I saw it wrong, how can I explain it when I am already on campus?
Or is there any other ambiguity in these words of the monitor?
Li Xiao hesitated for a moment, then spoke again,
"But the question is how did we get in so easily?"
The squad leader didn't even look back and said very matter-of-factly.
"How could he just come in casually? I've seen that doorman twice. The last time my dad and I came here to hold a board meeting, it was he who opened the door for us."
Hiss, Li Xiao finally couldn't hold it back and took a breath of cold air. What a good guy. He is really a good guy. Even the board of directors came out.
Only then did Li Xiao remember that his school was still a subsidiary of a listed company, so it seemed natural for shareholders to come here to conduct research and meetings?
It's a no-brainer, this is a large company with a market value of hundreds of billions.
Although Li Xiao knew nothing about stocks, after all, buying stocks with his meager bank card amount was a waste of time.
But he still knows that to be eligible to participate in a shareholders' meeting, one must hold at least 10% of the shares in a listed company or to jointly hold more than 10% of the shares in a listed company.
Calculated in this way, the amount of assets in the hands of the monitor's father was quite exaggerated. He suddenly remembered the news that had come out from nowhere in the class that the monitor's family had at least several hundred million.
The turmoil intensified, and eventually there were even rumors that the squad leader's family had billions of assets. Later, some girls who were familiar with her asked her about the real situation.
The monitor's reaction at the time was very flat. He smiled and said that those were all rumors and that everyone should not believe them easily.
Now it seems that the squad leader did not lie back then, and what everyone said was indeed a rumor. This is not hundreds of millions or billions, it is obviously tens of billions, and this is only the shareholding ratio in this listed company.
If there were one or two such companies, wouldn’t they have to take off immediately?
Although Li Xiao has a little money now, he still can't imagine what it would be like to have a family with more than 10 billion. Even if he spends 100 million a year, it will take 100 years to spend this huge sum of money.
Li Xiao used to think that he was already very rich. After all, he could earn tens of thousands of yuan per pound an hour, crushing 90% of his peers.
Now, after a casual comparison, I realize that my millions are nothing, but the squad leader doesn't seem to care too much about it. Talking about his father being a shareholder of a listed company is like talking about eating a basket of shrimp dumplings for breakfast today.
The shrimps in the shrimp dumplings are as fresh as they are, and they are just as understated and disapproving.
Li Xiao followed the squad leader while looking at the familiar plants and trees in front of him, and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
The scene in my memory has not changed much, but the surrounding trees are taller, the grass in the planter is lusher, and the yellow tiles on the teaching building are lighter in color.
The 5-story teaching building seemed very tall back then, but now it appears in front of us again, it has become much lower.
Originally, in my memory, the distance between the guard room and the teaching building was quite far. However, when I revisited the old place and walked it again, I found that the distance that I thought was very long was actually only two minutes away.
A strange metal sculpture appeared in front of the teaching building. Li Xiao took a closer look and saw that it was the information about his class of students written on it.
The school will ask senior high school graduates to make donations for every graduating class, but this donation is free. You can donate 5 yuan, 10 yuan, 50 yuan, or 100 yuan. Everyone donates anonymously, and nothing will happen to everyone.
Comparison mentality, even if you don't make a donation, the school will not force you to do so.
These donations will eventually turn into similar sculptures. Li Xiao has seen sculptures donated by other seniors, but he has never seen the sculptures from their class.
This was the first time he saw a sculpture from his class. Two metal dolphins jumped out of the sea to form a heart. Li Xiao didn't know what the meaning was, but it looked pretty good.
The campus was very quiet. From time to time, the sound of reading could be heard from far away. Li Xiao took out his mobile phone and took a look.
The current time is 5:00, and there is still half an hour before the 5:30 running time.
Donghua High School has morning and evening exercises. Morning exercises usually include radio gymnastics, while evening exercises include running around the campus.
Li Xiao remembers that he needed to practice for 1,500 meters back then, and he doesn’t know if this rule has changed now.
Walking step by step behind the monitor, I looked at the campus that was already a little unfamiliar.
If he hadn't been wearing a school uniform, he would have thought that he was back in those carefree days of studying.
The monitor suddenly turned around and smiled at Li Xiao. She pointed to the canteen not far below the teaching building and asked.
"Has someone forgotten what he promised me at that time?"
