all things

This was an ordinary evening for Yu Jia.

Yu’s father went out to deliver the goods, and Yu’s mother simply processed the dinner ingredients that could be processed in advance in the store, washed and selected vegetables, and took care of the two children to do their homework by the way——Yu’s father came back after delivering the goods , Before Yu Jinle got home, she couldn't get away and went home to cook.

The shop is here, and after a long time, it is inevitable that some neighbors and friends often come to drink tea and chat. Except for the business relationship with Dad, most of the rest are mainly housewives and friends of Mom. Although housewives have a lot of time , but the daily itinerary is fixed, and they all go home at regular times, buy vegetables, cook and serve the men. I used to come home early when I was in Jinle junior high school, and I often ran into Wu Zefei and Zhuang Erdong's mother. After going to high school, affected by the general environment, I didn't get home until after six o'clock every day after self-study, and I naturally met less when I came back late.

Yu's mother often babbled about this: "Tenth Middle School is just too lazy. There are all kinds of activities, but they don't pay attention to study. What's the use of doing it if there is nothing to do? The most important thing for students is to study. If you go in alone, you will be able to finish reading after three years." destroyed."

Yu Jinle did not pass the key points in the high school entrance examination, which became the best basis for her to criticize the tenth high school, "Look at the ninth high school, Wu Zefei did not do as well as you in the junior high school entrance examination, but his junior high school did well, and his grades went up. It's just you down."

She blamed all her faults on the school, and she hated Jin Le for nothing. She repeated what she said over and over without changing the content, not to mention Yu Jinle, the whole Yu family could recite it fluently.

"Just watch, don't look at Zefei getting into the tenth middle school, he will definitely not get a high score in the college entrance examination in the future!"

"Mom!" Yu Jinle couldn't listen anymore, "If you don't like the tenth high school, you don't like it, so don't drag it on others, okay! The tenth high school is still a key city!"

The balance in his heart was still tilted towards the Tenth Middle School, at least in the three years of junior high school there, he felt like a fish in water, very comfortable, unlike now in the No. [-] Middle School, where he was suffocating like a bastard.

"What happened to the city's key points? Look at how the enrollment rate has been in recent years? It can't even compare to a district key point!" Yu's mother has seen it stubbornly. She thinks that the three-year junior high school life in the tenth middle school ruined her son. I completely forgot the ecstasy when the junior high school score line was announced.

Enrollment rate is the pain in the hearts of students, the magic weapon of the school, and the lifeblood of parents!As soon as she moved out her admission rate, Yu Jinle lost immediately.

Yu's mother, due to time constraints and historical reasons, had limited educational opportunities when she was young, and she went to the countryside early with the army. At this time, she is like most parents, hoping that their children will become dragons and daughters will become phoenixes, and they will not be able to do so when they were young. The regrets of completion turned into expectations, and they kept putting pressure on their children.Yu's father works hard every day for this business, going in the wind and rain, and irregular meals are commonplace, not to mention the hard work of the business, and now the market in the industry is not changing year by year, she sees a sense of desperation in front of her eyes ideas come.

There are chattering people coming and going in the store, and I heard too much about whose children stayed in the Guangdong Triangle after graduating from university, and whose children gained a foothold in the provincial capital, with decent jobs, well-dressed clothes, and more importantly, nine-to-five , Weekly rest is fixed, earning comfort money.As parents, I also hope that the children will grow up to be able to succeed. In my mother's mind, I thought that compared with my own small and lonely business, it is better to go out to work, so I started to indoctrinate the three children in the family. , she has no intention of letting them go home to take over the business, but she is just an ordinary housewife, like thousands of women in the city, she has to worry about eating and drinking for her family every day at dawn, When it’s cold, she needs to add clothes and stew soup. When it’s hot, she’ll be served with herbal tea instead. During the holidays, she has to pay homage to gods and ancestors. These tedious daily routines have exhausted her limited energy and time, and time is wasted like a spinning top. Her keenness and intuition were overwhelmed, and she was completely turned into an ordinary housewife with limited knowledge and blocked vision.

She can only see a group of so-called "senior white-collar workers" and "elites" from the TV series at [-] o'clock every night. From those people, she seems to be able to see the future "development direction" of her three little boys. It is associated with an expectation to get rid of the toil day and night, and turn this expectation into pressure and put it on the child.

Yu Jin'an and Yu Jinyao are still young and don't know much, even if they say it, it will be blown away, so Yu Jinle has caught up with Yu's mother's expectations, and has become the last thing she heard. Good object.

Such a girl, if she really wanted to come to Jinle and the others to put forward any general development suggestions, she would be powerless, so she turned over and over again, leaving only the clichéd words that do not convey her meaning. A good job, but the hard part is that if you don't get into college, your future will be miserable.

I could hear calluses in my ears.

Yu Jinle put away her schoolbag and squatted on the ground to help her mother pick bean sprouts.

The white and tender soybean sprouts are crisp and raw, and the roots will be broken when you pinch them lightly. The bean sprouts treated in this way will be crisp and refreshing after being fried and served on the table. Mother Yu has always insisted on doing this.The processed bean sprouts are delicious, but they are too time-consuming. Sometimes Yu Jinle is caught doing this job after school breaks, and she always gets impatient, thinking it’s a fucking fuss, just a little bit of root, Who cares about those little differences?So I couldn't help thinking: Housewives always focus on these trivial details easily, and no one else will take this detail to heart.

"Brother!" Yu Jinyao rushed in from outside, and smiled when he saw Yu Jinle.

The little girl was at the age of growing her body, and she had grown a lot taller than last year. She rushed over like a cannonball and landed on Yu Jinle's back, knocking him forward, almost buried in the bean sprouts pile, He quickly stabilized himself with his hands on the ground.

"Get up soon!" Mama Yu's soybean sprouts were almost harmed by this debt collector, she hurriedly put them aside, and said angrily, "You may not come to help, but you are the one who makes trouble! Hurry up and pack your things and go upstairs!"

As soon as Yu Jinle came back, she could take the two little ones home to cook.

At this time, there was the sound of a motorcycle at the door, and Dad Yu threw the empty box he had brought back to the door of the store, and there was a loud "pong", everyone looked back, he smiled, and drove the car to the front Went under the roadside tree.

"It just so happens that your dad is back, let's all go home!" Yu's mother swiftly harvested the vegetables on the ground into a bag, put the garbage into a bag and threw it into the trash can, and started to drive people away.

Yu Jinle got up slowly following the movement of Yu Jinyao lying on her body, and said to her mother, "I'll take her back."

Mother Yu was annoyed when she saw whether the two siblings were standing or not: "Don't spoil her!"

After finishing her homework, Yu Jin'an was afraid of being caught by Yu's mother to help pick bean sprouts. She pretended to have a stomachache and squatted in the toilet for a long time. Now she came out of the bathroom, and when she saw Yu Jinyao pawing on her elder brother like a koala, her eyes widened. Immediately, it was bright, not to be outdone, and ran up to hug Yu Jinle's thigh, "Brother, I want it too!"

Bear children are like fruits, the whole length of Yu Jinle's body, one crawling on his back, and another hanging on his thigh, making it difficult for Yu Jinle to walk, he staggered half a circle on the spot, shouting: "Be careful, you two!" point!"

It's a pity that the bear boy didn't listen.

Yu Jinan snorted and wanted to climb up, but Yu Jinyao refused to give up his position, so he squeezed his elder brother's neck tightly with all his strength, and Yu Jinle was strangled so much that he rolled his eyes and almost slammed old lining.

The corners of Yu's mother's eyes twitched as she watched from the side. Yu Jinle couldn't stand still and could only stagger on the spot to keep her balance. Seeing that she was about to collapse at any moment, she yelled: "Get down for me!!"

Yu Jinyao replied with a smile: "I won't!"

Yu Jin'an came one step too late and couldn't climb onto the back of his eldest brother, and was still working tirelessly.

"You're a step late." Yu Jinle flicked his forehead lightly, bowed his head and said to him, "Next time it's your turn, go, help me get my schoolbag, and then go upstairs."

When Yu Jinle heard that it was time for the next time, he immediately lost interest. He crawled back to the ground, grabbed his trousers and jumped, grinning his teeth and making a face at his elder brother, "You won't carry me, so I don't want to be a coolie for you!"

After speaking, he ran away.

"Hey?" Yu Jinle was dumbfounded, "Does he know what coolie is?"

Yu Jinyao lay on his back, swaying his calf, and flattered him, "Brother, I'll help you."

The little girl is very clever, with top-notch skills in observing words and emotions, when she can be coquettish and when she can be presumptuous, she is very precise in her timing. Usually, although Yu Jinle is fierce, she never relents, but now she is the most tender brother.

Yu Jinle turned upside down with her on his back, "Don't move around."

After speaking, he bowed slightly, Yu Jinyao reached out to hook the strap of his schoolbag, and wanted to continue to reach out to get a tissue.

"If you move again, I'll throw you away." Yu Jinle threatened.

Yu Jinyao giggled.

"Brother." Yu Jinyao has never been a troublemaker, and she is still restless being carried on her brother's back. In order to talk to Yu Jinle, she twisted her body like a restless insect and hung on his back Creeping up, "Are you going to college?"

"Yeah." Yu Jinle walked slowly, and answered absently, "Why do you ask this all of a sudden?"

It is very strange that the word "study in university" suddenly pops out of the mouth of an innocent little girl.

The college entrance examination in the 80s and 90s is said to be a single-plank bridge with thousands of troops. As long as you cross that wooden bridge and walk to the other side to become a so-called "college student", it is also an honor similar to the high school champion in ancient times. Before Jinle, their family Only one cousin of relatives has won this honor and is often regarded as an excellent example by the elders in the family. All families have to put his photo on the wall and worship it.In recent years, in the wave of the country's continuous clamor for popularizing higher education and calling for college enrollment expansion, the college entrance examination admission has been greatly improved, but until the last moment, Yu Jinle couldn't tell what would happen to him in the future.

Used to being depressed, he couldn't see what the road ahead would look like.

"Our class Jiran said that her cousin is studying in university in Yangcheng."

Yangcheng is the capital of Guangdong Province, and most of the first- and second-class key universities are located there. It is said that a university city will be built in the near future, and Yu Jinle also has longing for it.

He hasn't traveled much. First, the family is busy with business, and Yu's parents don't have much time to take them out for travel. Second, during the holidays, winter and summer vacations, he has to help half of the store in the store, and he doesn't leave at all. Without moving away, Yangcheng and Pengcheng, two big cities in Guangdong Province that he had heard so much from his classmates and friends, he had only heard about them but never seen them.

"Mom said you're going to go to university soon, brother, are you going to the provincial capital too?" Yu Jinyao asked beside his ear, "Can you bring back as much delicious food as Ji Ran's cousin?"

The snack guy has an open mind, and he doesn't hide his dedication to eating.

Yu Jinle pursed her lips, really not knowing how to answer her.

He also wants to go to Yangcheng to study in university, even if it's just a second batch, but the question is, can he pass the exam?If the college entrance examination is just a thought, like the "My Ideal" I wrote when I was in elementary school, it would be much simpler.

My ideal is to be a teacher, a doctor, an astronaut, a scientist...

Yu Jinle has long forgotten what he wrote at the beginning, probably for the sake of getting a high score, writing about people's teachers, spring silkworms until they die, or candles burning themselves to illuminate others, cultivating flowers for the motherland...

Think far!

He shook his head, and suddenly found himself in a rather confused state - it seemed that he had never thought about the so-called "ideal".

24 hours a day, he spent one-third of his time at school, and the remaining one-third of his time on school-related homework, doing questions, memorizing texts, and memorizing words...excluding the seven hours of sleeping at night , Can spare three hours for eating, drinking, and Lazard, which is already considered ample and relaxed.However, a lot of energy and time was spent on learning, but it was far from being rewarded accordingly. After he entered the school, he no longer believed in those poisonous chicken soups about farming and harvesting.

He often feels powerless, but he is born and helpless.

How can we look forward to the future and tell the "ideal" when we are too busy to take care of ourselves now?

College entrance examination, volunteering, development direction, future, the blueprint related to these, only presents a blank space.
