when she became "he"

Xia Ran put down the pen in her hand and checked the admission ticket number and name again. After confirming that it was correct, she looked up at the watch on her wrist. The minute hand was at 45, and there were still 15 minutes before the end of the exam.

"There are still 15 minutes before the end of the exam. Students, please pay attention to the time, check the candidates' information, and hurry up if you haven't finished writing."

The sound of the invigilator's reminder caused a little commotion in the classroom. Many people were so anxious that their foreheads sweated and they scratched their heads.

Xia Ran looked at the students around her who were writing hard, and she felt grateful. The content of this exam was much more difficult than the previous mock exams. Her grades were not bad on weekdays, but she just had enough time to finish writing and reviewing. That's all, thanks to Xu Nuo's precise grasp of the question types, many of the guessed questions appeared in the exam, otherwise she would be as anxious as everyone else now.

You must thank her well after the exam, Xia Ran thought.

"Ring ring ring, ring ring ring, ring ring ring..."

The ringing of the bell marks the official end of this year's college entrance examination.

It was as if a pot had exploded in the classroom, and there were voices of annoyance and wailing one after another.

"The exam is over, put down the pens in your hands, please don't leave your seats, and you can leave only after the invigilators collect the test papers and count them."

After stepping out of the school gate, Xia Ran took a deep breath, and felt extremely relaxed all over her body for a moment. She even wanted to shout out to vent the emotions that had been squeezed these days, but in the end she suppressed it.

The school gate is several times more crowded than usual. A large group of students and parents are waiting here under the scorching sun, blocking the entire school gate. When the bell rings for the end of the exam, the parents are even more nervous than the students, and they are not worried. Knowing how the children are doing in the exam, I dare not ask questions during the first few subjects for fear of distracting the children, and after the exam, I still dare not ask for fear of distracting the children.

"Ran Ran, here!"

Xia Ran managed to pass through the crowd, heard a familiar voice, and looked up to see her parents waving to her under the big tree not far ahead.

Xia Ran was pleasantly surprised. She walked over and looked at the sweat on her parents' foreheads: "Dad, Mom, it's a hot day. Didn't I tell you to wait for me at home?"

Zhang Qian touched her head, and handed her the mineral water in her hand: "Your dad and I have nothing to do at home. After all, this year my daughter's college entrance examination, we are not allowed to experience the feeling of accompanying parents in the exam. Well!"

Xia Ran took the water, unscrewed the lid and took a few sips. Before the exam, she was afraid of going to the toilet and didn't dare to drink water. Now it's the hottest time of summer, and she was already dying of thirst if she didn't drink water for half a day.After hearing Zhang Qian's words, she didn't say anything, but she was actually very happy in her heart.

At this time, other parents under the big tree also found their children, but the situation was not very good.

"What did you do? Aren't your grades very good on weekdays? Why did you lose the chain at a critical moment? Do you know that I told others that you will definitely be admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University. I let go of my words. Now you give me Saying that I failed the exam, where can I save my face? The people in the office must laugh at me secretly!" The woman has fashionable curly hair and is wearing a beige tight skirt. She looks quite fashionable, but at the moment her expression is somewhat Ferociously, he twisted his daughter's ear and cursed.

The female student was thin and small, she looked timid, her ears were pinched by her mother, her eyes were red, and tears were almost overflowing: "Mom, I really tried my best, I don't know why this year's topic is so difficult ..."

"How difficult is it? How dare you make excuses if you failed the exam!"

……

And the father and son on the other side are in the same situation.

"Dad, I guess you will have to come to be an 'examination accompanying parent' next year."

"How come? Aren't the previous mock exams pretty good?" My father was a little disappointed.

The boy fanned the wind with his hands irritably, but it was useless. The sweat on his head continued to come out, and his voice was a little impatient: "The person who produced the test this year didn't know why he went crazy. The questions are so complicated. It’s difficult, and I don’t know if they want to brush us all down.”

Xia Tian and Zhang Qian looked at each other, and exchanged a glance with each other. It seems that this year's situation is not very good, and they don't want to ask the child, so as not to make her sad.

Xia Tian said to their mother and daughter: "It's crowded here, let's go home first."

Xia Ran's parents are both high school teachers. Xia Tian taught sophomore chemistry. Zhang Qian used to teach politics, but she was promoted to the teaching director two years ago. When Xia Ran took the first few subjects, both of them had invigilators Task, I didn’t accompany her to take the exam like other parents. This is the last subject. I thought that other children would be accompanied by their parents. I was afraid that Xia Ran would feel uncomfortable, so I also came to accompany her to take this last subject. It's not a job done by humans. The parent feels more anxious outside than the candidates inside. The two-hour wait seems to have passed for several years.

Although Xia Ran felt relieved after the exam, it was probably because she was too tense in the past few months. Suddenly, her heart was relieved and she felt exhausted all over. agree.

Normally, it would only take about half an hour from school to home, but the half-hour drive in the past took a full two hours today, and it was almost 07:30 when I got home.

As soon as she got home, Xia Ran was rushed back to the room by Zhang Qian to rest. Xia Ran also felt a little tired, so she threw herself on the bed when she got back to the room. Maybe she was really tired these days. The bed fell asleep.

It was almost 08:30 in the evening when Xia Ran was called up by Zhang Qian. In order to celebrate her daughter's college entrance examination, Zhang Qian went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables at noon today. Ran loves food, so he made an exception and opened a bottle of red wine.

As the head of the family, Teacher Xia Xia made a summary before the meal: "Today is the day when Ran Ran officially graduated from high school. No matter what the test is, it is a day worth celebrating. Don't think about the grades, how the test is. Now It’s a foregone conclusion, and it’s useless to think about it.”

"Yeah, your dad and I don't have too high demands on you, so let's relax after the exam."

Xia Ran watched Xia Tian and Zhang Qian say these words of comfort secretly, thinking of the parents who met at the school gate today, she couldn't help laughing: "Dad, Mom, you don't have to do this, this exam is more difficult than usual, But I feel like I did pretty well.”

"Really?" Xia Tian and Zhang Qian looked pleasantly surprised. You must know that they are already prepared for their daughter to fail the exam. After all, whether it is the reaction of the parents of the students outside or the internal information of them as teachers, they all show this. The difficulty of the college entrance examination this time is higher than usual. Although my daughter usually has good grades, her luck is not good. Even if she fails in the exam, it is not surprising. It is really unexpected to hear her daughter say so.

"Really, thank you for the promise. Before the exam, she gave me a week of special training. There are many question types in it. Otherwise, I might fail the exam." Xia Ran felt a little embarrassed when he said this.

"Xu Nuo? That friend you met in the hospital when you were a volunteer?" Zhang Qian is quite familiar with the name Xu Nuo. She has often heard it from her daughter in the past two years, and this name is also quite special and easy to remember.

"Yes, Mom, Xu Nuo is very smart. She doesn't seem to have gone to school. She is one year younger than me and has already completed college courses early. She is so angry. How can there be such a thing in this world?" What a genius!"

"Okay, okay, no one is perfect, at least you are healthy, mom will be very happy, this is more important than anything else." Zhang Qian put food for her and urged her to eat, no matter how smart other people's children are, It wasn't hers, and what's more, I heard from my daughter that the little girl was hospitalized all year round, and she was pitiful at such a young age.

"Now that the exam is over, there are still three months of vacation before leaving school. Your mother and I have to go to class in two days. Didn't your classmates say to go on a trip after the exam? Ran Ran, why don't you go out with them too?" Xia Tian suggested.

Xia Ran nodded: "The students in the class organize to go to Tibet. I haven't been to Tibet yet. I always wanted to visit the Potala Palace before. I just took this opportunity to go with my classmates."

"To go so far?" Xia Tian frowned slightly, a little worried.

"How many of you are going? Is it safe? Why don't you play in a place closer." Not only Xia Tian, ​​but Zhang Qian also disagreed after hearing it. Isn't the TV news always saying that there is no peace there?

"Mom and Dad, don't worry, a dozen classmates are going together, and one of my classmates has an uncle who works in Lhasa. When we get there, his uncle will take us there. There will be no danger."

Xia Tian frowned slightly after hearing this, but still said: "Otherwise, when your mother and I are on vacation, we will go with you?"

Seeing that the two were still a little uneasy, Xia Ran said again: "Parents, don't worry, I am 17 years old, and I will be 18 in a few months. I am an adult, and this little thing will not It's hard for your daughter."

Hearing what Xia Ran said, Xia Tian and Zhang Qian were also relieved and no longer objected, but only asked her to pay attention to safety during the trip.

"How long are you going to go this time?"

"It should be a week, no more than ten days at most." He had to come back before filling out the application, so Xia Ran didn't plan to play for too long, a week or so would be enough.It will take about half a month for the results to come out. Now everyone is resting at home for a few days before traveling to Tibet, and it will be just in time to fill in the volunteers.

However, many things, the plan will never keep up with the changes, Xia Ran's vacation trip is destined to fail!
