Go back to the year of the high school entrance examination

The next day was a rest day, and the results hadn't been released yet. At least Ji Shi hadn't heard any news about the exam.But he guessed that someone in his grade already knew about it, and there were more than one. This kind of thing was actually quite common. If Ji Shi was in a hurry, he would ask the old donkey, and the old donkey might not tell him.

But Ji Shi didn't want to ask, there was no such need.

He went to the next door and knocked on Yao Meng's door. The door opened. Yao Meng was taking his bag. Seeing Ji Shi was waiting, he threw him a bottle of water: "Have you had breakfast?"

Ji Shi shook his head: "I want to go out to eat."

"I plan to go out to eat too."

The canteen of Z Middle School is also in charge of meals on weekends, but there are very few people staying in the canteen for breakfast on Sunday morning. Many students sleep until dawn, and then eat lunch directly when they get up.The cafeteria window will also reduce the lunch supply on Sunday, because parents will visit their children on this day, and many people go out to eat directly, or bring meals to eat in the dormitory.

The two walked all the way, and there were only a few people on the road from the dormitory area to the school gate, which seemed very empty. Ji Shi yawned: "Did we go out too early?"

"Otherwise we won't have breakfast." Yao Meng said in a low voice, "Zeng Tairan and the others will also go to the breakfast stand with us."

There is a custom of eating breakfast in Z County. Walking along the road of the rental house where Ji Shi lives, the breakfast shop and steamed stuffed bun shop on the side of the road emit a strong aroma. The restaurants nearby are definitely not unpalatable, except for the bun shops that are good for takeaway, those that sell wontons, tofu noodles... Ji Shi usually can't find so many shops when he goes to cram school.

"I have arrived!"

As soon as they walked near the library, Zeng Tairan appeared in front of the two of them: "Are we the first? Zhou Weile and Huang Yaqiong haven't arrived yet? They're so slow."

Ji Shi and Yao Meng came here on foot, Zeng Tairan rode a bicycle, Zhou Weile and Huang Yaqiong were picked up by their parents, so they were the last to arrive, and they went to have breakfast first when everyone was full, but they didn't choose a roadside stall, they found a family It's an old-fashioned restaurant. According to Zeng Tairan, his breakfast is the best.

There is no view on the outer wall of the restaurant, because it is really old. There are several cars parked in the yard, and there are battery cars scattered all over the place. Going in is another world.

There are round tables, long tables, and small square tables. There is smoke on the table, and there is a menu on it. For breakfast, you can choose fish soup noodles, fish soup wonton stew, steamed buns and siu mai.

Ji Shi was already hungry, so he didn't mean to be polite. He ordered fish soup noodles, and most of the others also asked for fish soup noodles. After all, fish soup noodles are a specialty of County Z, and everyone usually eats them for breakfast. Huang Yaqiong ate wontons , I chose a small bowl, after all, her appetite is not as big as theirs.

Several people ordered two baskets of steamed stuffed buns and two baskets of siu mai each, and started to eat as soon as the noodles came.

The fish noodle soup tasted relatively light. The store served shredded pickled cabbage. Ji Shi poured some into the bowl and added a small spoonful of spicy oil. His way of eating it was actually not very authentic, but he was there No one cares about these, there are those who think the taste is bland and salty.

"This is the first time I went out to play with my classmates in the third year of high school. My mother was shocked when she heard about it." Huang Yaqiong laughed while eating. When he didn't get along with her before, Ji Shi thought she was a quiet girl, because she The composition is very literary and artistic, but after getting along with Ji Shi, I realized that Huang Yaqiong's personality is actually quite lively, and she also likes to joke.

She said that it was mainly because when the class was divided, all the people in the class who had a good relationship with her were assigned to study liberal arts. They were all good at Chinese, but Huang Yaqiong was not bad in physics and chemistry, so they continued to stay in the science class.

Yao Meng and Zhou Weile also belonged to the type who didn't have many friends. Among them, Zeng Tairan probably had the most friends.

"Not many, most of them are acquaintances, not friends at all." Zeng Tairan corrected, "It's just the kind of people who will nod when they see them on the road."

Ji Shi thought about it, he seemed to have very few friends who would nod when he saw them, maybe there were some ten years ago, but he didn't deliberately develop this aspect after he came back, so the people he was familiar with were still these few in the class.

“The buns are delicious!”

Huang Yaqiong called out: "Why don't you tell me to eat?"

"Didn't you say you'd be fat and couldn't eat?"

Huang Yaqiong's behavior of beating back was protested by other people. Just now she was the one who kept saying that she didn't want to eat, because she was afraid of getting fat, but it was probably because they ate too much when watching Ji, and the smell came out, so she didn't hold back and grabbed one.

"I have already said that this steamed stuffed bun is delicious, and the siu mai is also delicious. The skin is thin and the meat is fragrant." Zeng Tairan motioned Huang Yaqiong to pick another one, "It's a big deal to eat less at noon."

Huang Yaqiong couldn't resist the temptation and ate another siu mai.

To Ji Shi's surprise, the taste of this restaurant is very good, but the price is not expensive at all. Five people only ate a few tens of dollars, and the average price per person is just over 10 dollars. When they went out, the waiter Cleaned the table neatly, and the next wave of guests came in again.

The library is not far from the restaurant. Although there is a big supermarket nearby, the environment around the library is very quiet. There are trees planted on both sides of the road, and there is a large concrete courtyard inside. There is a bulletin board in the courtyard. There are recent recommendation books on it, probably because it is too far away from the sun, the steps look a bit old.

From a modern point of view, the library in County Z is small and old, with a small collection of books and a small space for people to read. In a few years, the government of County Z will build a new Internet celebrity in the east of County Z. The style of the library, the style of the rotating bookshelf can find the shadow of Zhongshuge.

"I came here when I was still in elementary school." Zeng Tairan said with emotion, "Let's go in and have a look."

Ji Shi took a look around and found that the books in the library are actually not old. You can tell from a glance that the frequency of borrowing them is not high, and although the place is small, there are quite a few popular novels. Ji Shi only reads them. There are "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" and Ming Xiaoxi's novels, as well as the martial arts novels of Jin Yong and Gu Long.

But there are basically no books for senior high school students to study, and more books for the public to read.

In fact, they were already mentally prepared before they came, and they were not disappointed. One of them took a book first, found a chair to sit down, and passed the time by flipping through the book.

The flow of people in the library is actually quite good, largely because the air conditioner is turned on, it is not cold to sit in and read a book, and the environment is very quiet, and the lights are turned on upstairs, so it is quite good to spend time inside.

They mainly have no place to gather.

These days, when students go out to play, it’s basically like pressing the road. They either go to KTV or Internet cafes. They just took the monthly exam, so it’s not suitable to go anywhere. Huang Yaqiong and the girls can go to the pedestrian street when they come out together. Ji Shi and the others Boys can also go to the gym together, but there is no place where there are boys and girls.

In a way, libraries are a pretty good bet.

What Ji Shi was looking for was Agatha's mystery novel, which happened to be available in the foreign literature category. Zeng Tairan chose "Seven Swords Under the Tianshan Mountains". This novel, movie and TV series have been filmed not long ago, and it is still relatively popular. Zhou Weile and Huang Yaqiong were reading Cang Yue's novel, and Yao Meng was flipping through a social science book.

Their attention is quite concentrated now, and they can concentrate on one thing for a long time without being distracted. At the beginning, everyone was interested in chatting, but gradually they all bet on the novels they want to read.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and Ji Shi even felt like he was studying by himself in the classroom.

However, the temperature in the library is still a bit hot. Ji Shi took off his coat and continued to read today's "Beer Murder". If you are in a hurry, just read it slowly, anyway, the author will always give an explanation.

At first glance, they stayed in the library until after 11 o'clock, and a few people felt that it was time for lunch, so they ate a little nearby.

Huang Yaqiong borrowed two books, and she brought out her mother's library card, which happened to be able to borrow books, but Ji Shi and the others didn't have a card, so they would finish reading a book before leaving if they kept more.

"I don't know how our class ranks this time." Zeng Tairan said with emotion, "I heard that the 12th class next door gathered people as soon as the class started this afternoon. It seems that their class performance is very poor this time."

"Their head teacher is very demanding." Zhou Weile had a speechless expression, "Didn't their class look like this before? As soon as the results came out, they were in the top three of the ordinary class, so their head teacher was not satisfied."

"Maybe they are in the intensive class?" Zeng Tairan also looked displeased.

It's not that they have much opinion on Class 12. The class teacher's unlucky ones are actually the students. The only thing they worry about is that the style of Class 12 will be transmitted to Class 11.

In modern terms, this kind of practice is called judging. If you don't tell yourself if you die, your opponent will also be forced to do so.

"Is it really that bad this time?" Yao Meng asked.

"Then do you want me to reveal it?" Zeng Tairan gave him a wink, but before he finished speaking, he was blocked by other people, "Forget it, it's better to wait for the old donkey to reveal it." Exam paper."

"I think the old donkey was in a pretty good mood that day. I can't tell how we did in the exam this time."

"At that time, the score was probably not out yet. Where did the old donkey's anger come from? He is not a stove. How can it be possible to get angry every day?"

Ji Shi, however, was thinking about a word-form question: "Isn't the old donkey's horse a furnace if it's replaced by a fire?"

"Ji Shi, you are enough! Do you want to let people have a good meal?"

Zhou Weile: "By the way, we eat fried celery, where is the cellwall of celery?"

Yao Meng, Huang Yaqiong and Zeng Tairan: "..."

No, the phenomenon of human-to-human transmission occurs abnormally, and the problem is very serious.

For lunch, they ate stir-fried vegetables in a small restaurant. After all, hot pot is not very popular in County Z at this time. Students prefer to eat fast food or Malatang. The price is cheap, and it is more suitable for a group of people to eat together. Discussing about exams while eating is a bit hurtful to the stomach, but they are used to discussing questions and homework, so they don't think it's a problem.

But after this meal, everyone was not too worried about their grades, but now they are unavoidably a little uneasy, worrying about failing the monthly exam, or worrying that the old donkey will make a big fuss, and the whole class may not be happy. better off.

"It's up to tomorrow morning."

"It's possible to hand out the papers before self-study tonight." Yao Meng said suddenly.

He doesn't smile very often, so his face sometimes looks expressionless. As we all know, once such a person is serious, the credibility of his words will be greatly improved.

So everyone stared at Yao Meng with somewhat frightened expressions.

"You said the papers will be handed out before evening self-study?"

"I said it's possible." Yao Meng said calmly, "It's not like this kind of thing hasn't happened before."

"When?"

"Don't you remember? In the second year of high school, when the average score was 70, the old donkey handed out all the test papers during the evening self-study. At that time, only the boarding students were there, and the day students were all home, so everyone helped each other report. The score is coming."

"There is such a thing." Huang Yaqiong suddenly realized.

Ji Shi had already forgotten all about it, but he vaguely remembered that such an incident had happened, and he seemed to be one of the people with an average score of less than 70, and he was the target of the old donkey.
