Go back to the year of the high school entrance examination

The wind was blowing on his face, and there were no street lights on the road from the town to the village. It was almost October, and the temperature had dropped at night. Ji Shi was wrapped in an old coat of Ji’s father. , the lights in the kitchen and the big house were on, and Mama Ji heard the sound of a car coming out of the kitchen, holding a rice spoon in her hand.

"I'm back, is it cold?"

Ji Shi shook his head: "It's not cold, I'm angry."

When I got home, I would have something to eat. Ji’s mother prepared a big bowl of fish soup, which was stewed until it was milky white. She had to sit down and drink a bowl when she had to sit down. She also stewed the ribs until they were rotten. Ji Shi.

The light in the kitchen was dim, and after drinking half a bowl of soup, my body immediately warmed up.

Other dishes were still cooking in the pot, halfway through the meal, Second Aunt Ji Shi's voice sounded at the door: "I guess it's time to come back at this time, I went to the town to buy crabs today, and I steamed two more crabs... ..."

Mama Ji stood up from behind the stove: "No need, our family bought it too!"

She lifted the lid of the pot, filled some spare ribs, and asked the second aunt to take it back. First, the second aunt didn't want it, but Ji Ma pushed it hard, so she had to accept it.

"Shishi, Xiao Yu is back tonight, come to my house for lunch tomorrow!" The second aunt asked Ji's mother not to cook lunch tomorrow, but to go to her house to eat together.

The second aunt's daughter is three years older than Ji Shi, and she is now a junior in the city. Ji Shi and her cousin have had a good relationship since childhood. Gu Gao pressured her to study, and finally went to a secondary school in the province.

There were 18 students in their class at the time, and my cousin was the 18th.

Ji Shi agreed with a "hmm" because he was used to going to the second aunt's house for dinner. When he was a child, Ji's father and mother Ji were busy with work. When he got home, he would go to the second aunt's house first when he had no food. Sometimes even during the Spring Festival, the second aunt It was early dinner at home, so he went to play with his cousin, first had a meal at her house to fill his stomach, and then went back to his own house for a second meal.

Ji's mother and Ergu's cooking skills are good, but Ji's mother is more likely to cook more serious dishes, and the taste is light, such as roasted fish and meat, while Ergu's taste is heavier. Stir-fried snails, family dinner together, whether at Ji Shi's house or my sister-in-law's house, these dishes are basically the second aunt's.

After eating, Ji Shi takes a shower first, everything else in Z is good, but taking a bath is too troublesome, Ji Shi’s house has an electric water heater, and used to be a solar water heater, but unfortunately the solar water heater is too troublesome to take a bath in winter, and the electric one was replaced later at home.

The water storage capacity of the current water heater is small, and a larger one was replaced after the new house was built.

After finishing his work, Ji Shi turned on the desk lamp and began to read his chemistry textbook.

Among all the subjects, his weakest is chemistry. It has been a month since the start of school, and he has not even systematically turned over the chemistry book. Fortunately, the old donkey was very careful when he took them to review, helping Ji Shi to make up for the lost foundation a little bit.

Ji Shi's review mode for chemistry is the same as that for physics. He put together textbooks, reference books and notes, and started to look at the places he has already reviewed. His thinking is very clear in the places that the old donkey said, and there is no problem in doing the questions. problem, but the old donkey didn't talk about the local time and found it a bit difficult.

After all, the things in the textbook are a bit superficial.

Ji Shi pursed his lips tightly and worked on the draft paper. Practice is the best way to deepen memory. From his experience, even if it is a relatively complicated chemical formula, the memory will be deeper after doing the questions several times.

"Precipitate first, then precipitate and then dissolve..."

"The basic operation of the experiment..."

The dead of night is the time when the concentration is the most concentrated. Ji Shi flipped through the book and then the reference materials, and then integrated a small knowledge point. He reviewed very slowly, like ants moving house. Check off the chapters.

Ji Shi didn't watch too much at once, he had poor foundation and couldn't eat too much.

But now he is more relaxed than before. After adding QQ with Yao Meng, Ji Shi would send messages to each other to ask physics and chemistry questions. Yao Meng only discussed mathematics with Ji Shi at first, but the two of them talked English once. For the homework, he found that Ji Shi's English seemed to be pretty good, so during normal practice, Yao Meng would ask Ji Shi whenever he was inaccurate.

There is usually no dispute between two people on math problems. Even if the answers are different, it is clear at a glance by using each other's methods. On the contrary, there will be a lot of disputes in English. Often, two people battle for a long time, and the answer is another option.

Ji Shi's QQ villain flashed again, and Zeng Tairan sent a crying emoji, asking him if he had done his math homework.

"Aren't you supposed to come to me on the night of the 4th?" Ji Shi replied with a message.

"Don't mention it, my mother is right next to me. I sent you a message from hiding in the toilet." Zeng Tairan complained, "I wanted to write English, but she insisted on staring at the math paper and asked me to write it. Nope."

Zeng Tairan's parents are the kind of very serious parents, Ji Shi once met, that kind of deterrence made Ji Shi, who is a scumbag, feel a lot of pressure, and even felt ashamed that he had brought Zeng Tairan down.

— Actually not at all.

Ji Shi also didn't understand, with such parents, how could Zeng Tairan's personality be so unreliable?

Under Zeng Tairan's strong suggestion, Ji Shixian started to do the first set of math papers. The difficulty of the first set was not too great, but there was a question that was quite new for investigation. Ji Shi talked to Yao Meng on QQ, Yao Meng also felt the same way.

The 14th grade of the fill-in-the-blank questions was over, and he spent the longest time thinking about the last question, and basically spent all his energy on this one.

After all, the test time is limited, and Teacher Qi has always emphasized in class that you should give up appropriately if you encounter a question you don’t know, and don’t delay the time for other questions.

To a certain extent, the progress of doing math problems is very fast, basically just look at the questions and you will be able to solve the problems. Even if you try your best to solve it later, it will take a lot of time.

When Ji Shi was immersed in doing the questions, the door of the room was pushed open, and Ji's mother came in with a cup of boiling water, and told Ji Shi to go to bed early and not stay up late.

"If it's too cold, put the small table on the bed to write."

Ji Shi nodded to indicate that he understood, but he still buried himself in the question and continued to write.

Sitting for a long time is cold, but it's not really cold yet. He put on an extra coat and cotton slippers for his shoes, so he doesn't feel cold.The small table board is the kind that can be folded, supported by one board and four iron frames. It is most convenient to use it on the bed in winter, but when Ji Shi uses it, there is always a feeling that his legs cannot be stretched, which is more tiring than doing homework on the table. too much.

The alarm clock was beeping softly, and when Ji Shi had finished writing a set of math papers, the pointer had already pointed to 11:[-].

He rubbed his face, and his brain felt empty for a moment.

The body is tired, but maintaining a focused learning state does give him a sense of pleasure, just like the building blocks he built with his own hands, from scratch, from less to more, and then slowly watch it become richer.

……

Life at home is indeed easier than at school. Ji Shi is still asleep on the bed. Ji’s father and mother have already gone to pick green peppers in the shed. The family has grown a lot of green peppers this year. Now is the season for autumn peppers to be on the market. Quote today's vegetable prices.

Ji Shi heard Ji's mother mutter twice, saying that the price of green peppers this year is not very good, much worse than last year.

However, there has never been a regular price for vegetables. The price of local vegetables mainly depends on the market demand. When other vegetable producing areas suffer from flooding or cooling, the price of local vegetables will rise a wave, or the price of a certain vegetable was too low the previous year. The locals stopped planting in the second year, and the farmers who have done so can often meet high prices.

Ji Shi remembers that it was like this one year. Dad Ji complained a few days ago that the price of green peppers was so low that he didn’t want to go to the field to pick them. It costs 2 cents a catty, plus the cost and labor costs. Picking is a loss of money. It turned out that after a few days , the green pepper suddenly rose to more than [-] yuan, Ji's father and Ji's mother were busy picking it again.

Compared with the prices of vegetables in supermarkets, farmers get the least amount of money.

They have a vegetable cooperative in their local area. Vegetables are basically sold there. First, a dish is sold by the vegetable vendor, and then a cart with license plates from various places comes to transport it every day. Packing fees, oil fees, labor fees, toll fees... Wait until the end From the supermarket to the consumer, the price gap is several times.

His parents worked too hard, and the rewards for their labor were too little.

So for Ji Shi's going to school, they can be said to have given everything they have, and they have no other demands. They just hope that Ji Shi can have a stable job and don't work as hard as them.

……

Ji Shi went to the kitchen. There was cooked porridge in the rice cooker, sesame seed cakes were covered in a plastic basin, and a pot of sticky corn was boiled in the cauldron. Ji Shi dozed off while eating breakfast, his mouth moving mechanically. After a while, consciousness slowly regained consciousness.

It was still early, but all the households in the village were deserted. Ji Shi's parents went to the fields very late, and the old people who felt little got up earlier one by one.

When Ji Shi was gnawing corn, the neighbors also came back to have breakfast one by one. They all greeted Ji Shi with a smile. Recently, it was National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival together. Many people came back from the village, but they still had to be busy with the busy work. It's just that the house is more lively.

After Ji Shi finished eating three corns, Ji's father and Ji's mother also came back in a tricycle. The green peppers picked this morning were loaded in the back of the car. Ji's father drove to sell first, and Ji's mother ate first when he came back.

Seeing Ji Shi, he wanted to go back to his room to do the problem again, but Ji's mother stopped him: "There are people catching fish on the bridge at the gate, do you want to go and see?"

There is a small river at the main entrance of Ji's house. When he was a child, he was still connected to the big river on the east side, but people gradually blocked the bridge hole and made a road. Now it is a pool of stagnant water, but this pool of water is another river across a road. , that river is running water, there are many kinds of fish, and some people specially put fry in it to raise fish and sell them.
