Only two days after Chen Feng and the others went out to promote mulberry harvesting, the day became even hotter.

"The college entrance examination just ended two days ago." Chen De said to Chen Feng with the Phellinus huang and some medicinal materials that he had collected.

Chen Feng was spreading the dug Smilax cocos out to dry in the sun when he heard the sound and was slightly startled.

"Oh, it's over when it's over. What does it have to do with us?" He responded casually.

Chen De squatted down and stared at his expression.

He knew that Chen Feng had always had a dream of going to college and his grades had always been good.

Unfortunately, the composition of Chen's mother's family prevented Chen Feng from taking the college entrance examination and choosing the university he wanted to attend.

But Chen De said: "By the way, I heard that many families have recovered their identities in the past two years. Do you think your grandma and others will also recover?"

Chen Feng continued to move his hands and shook his head, "I don't know, I should be able to do it!"

"Then if your status is restored, can you go to college and become a college student? As soon as college students come out, they will be assigned jobs, and they will have an iron rice bowl."

Chen Feng stopped what he was doing, picked up a piece of firewood from the side and sat down.

He turned to look at Chen De beside him, "Dezi, how old am I this year?"

Chen De was stunned for a moment, then responded: "22!"

Chen Feng was born in an early month, at the end of the first month, while Chen De was born in October, so there was a nine-month difference between them.

Chen Feng said with a smile: "Even if my grandma's family is restored to status, I'm already 22, and you want me to go to college? I have almost forgotten all my high school knowledge, and I haven't finished it. Which college do you want me to go to? Really? Do you think I can get into college if I’m a little clever?”

Chen De choked.

Chen Feng knew that his idea was good, but he explained seriously, "I also want to get into college. In the future, I will have an iron rice bowl, work will be assigned, and family members will have preferential treatment. But you have to think clearly about Dezi. The college entrance examination was just resumed that year." At that time, how many people took the college entrance examination?"

Chen De thought for a while and responded, "It seems like more than 500 million people..."

"How many people passed the exam?"

"Three... 30!"

"Then, out of a thousand people, how many can get into college?"

Chen De really calculated carefully.

His grades have never been very good, but today he did very well.

"Out of 1000 people, probably more than 50 people can pass the exam."

"So, what do you think you, Brother Feng, and I will do to take the college entrance examination?"

Chen Feng patted him below the head and said, "Stop thinking about these things. Follow me to the mountains later to see if the lychees are red?"

At this time, the lychees in the mountains should be almost red.

-

Chen Feng’s family has more plums, but not so many lychees.

But compared to Chen Dejia, it's better.

In addition to the fruit trees distributed by the government according to the number of people, Chen Feng's father also planted a few trees on the hilltop of his home.

The weather was suitable this year and a lot of fruits were produced.

When she heard that she was going to the mountains, Chen's mother said, "I'll go too. I happened to be passing by the fields to see the seedlings."

Tangtang ran back from outside holding her puppet.

I don’t know if I heard the adult’s words and shouted, “I’ll go too, I’ll go too.”

Chen Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and responded: "Okay, okay, you go too, I'll take you with me!"

It had rained in the mountains two days ago, and now the air is very fresh.

They took sickles and cut weeds in the garden while cutting pigweed, which was just right.

"Hey, Afeng, look, lychee!" Chen De quickly shouted to Chen Feng before anyone came closer.

"I already knew that."

This lychee comes from the same garden as the plum pickers. When I picked plums before, I saw a lot of lychees, longans, and lemons.

But I was still young at that time, but I didn't expect that in just over a month, it would grow up. Looking from a distance, it was already dotted with blood.

Mother Chen looked up with one eye and couldn't help but exclaimed, "There are quite a lot."

Tangtang was excited after eating it. She looked at the lychees on the tree and said hurriedly: "It's delicious. I want to eat it."

Mother Chen quickly grabbed her heart and said, "Tangtang, wait a minute, there is a lot of grass over there. Wait until your dad cuts the grass before going over there."

No one cares about the lychee area, except under the lychee tree, there are a lot of weeds nearby.

Afterwards, Chen Feng and Chen De quickly stepped forward and cut a path from Tangtang to the lychee tree.

Tangtang saw it and ran over in a hurry.

The lychee tree has a good shape, like an upside-down apple. From the lowest point, Tangtang can reach out and pick the lychees.

She quickly picked one, put it in her mouth and took a bite without hesitation.

It was sour and sweet, and the little guy's eyes suddenly lit up.

Chen Feng also reminded her, "Keep an eye on it, be careful there are core-eating moths there!"

Although there are not many lychee bugs, they are not without them.

Tangtang nodded and added, "No bugs, delicious."

The lychees are not very ripe now, and the skin is already red, but not completely red.

At this time, the lychee tastes fresher, a little sour, and more sweet.

Chen De also quickly broke off one and handed it to Chen's mother, "Auntie, try it."

Chen Feng also broke off a large lychee and peeled it open. It was sweet and slightly sour. It was very delicious after one bite.

"Not bad, delicious." Chen De said.

The lychees they have here are all native lychees. The fruit is not big, but the seeds are not big either. They have a slight thorniness, but the taste is very good.

Every summer, everyone eats lychee, longan, mango, etc.

Chen Feng looked up at the red lychee and said to Chen De, "Do you think giving this lychee to others will make them shabby?"

Chen De shook his head, "No, it's pretty good!"

Then he asked: "Who are you sending it to?"

"Send some to Lulu and his family."

Chen Feng had the address of Lulu's house for a long time. Brother A Ming wrote it to him at that time. Chen Feng also remembered it. It was a very short sentence and there was also a phone number.

And although they went to the city several times, they never looked for them.

Chen Feng was in a hurry to sell things. After selling the things and buying them, he went home and it was inappropriate to go and see them.

It's different now.

"Then you can definitely pick these. The lychees we have here taste pretty good."

Mother Chen also responded: "If you go to visit Lulu's house, you can bring lychees, but you will have to buy some things then."

Chen Feng nodded.

"Then I'll pick it early tomorrow and send it to you as soon as I pick it. If I pick it now, it won't be as fresh tomorrow."

Chen De asked again: "I'll go with you. Remember to call me tomorrow morning."

"to make."

-

The next day, just after four o'clock, Chen Feng got up.

Chen De also got up early, and the two of them went directly to the mountains with flashlights.

At this point, everything is still dark.

But the earlier you pick the lychees, the fresher they will be.

Besides, they used to go to the orchard to pick fruits in the middle of the night. It was four o'clock in the morning, so it wasn't too dark.

When Tangtang woke up, Chen Feng and Chen De had already picked two baskets and were cleaning up in the yard.
