Seventy Little Heads

The two looked up at the banner with their names printed on it, feeling emotional in their hearts.Goudan pointed it out to Li Si: "That's about your son and Wang Xuan. Li Kai is me, and Wang Xuan is Wang Xuan."

"What did you say?"

"I said your son is amazing. He got No. 2 in the province and No. 1 in the school. He was admitted to a good school in Beijing. Congratulations. This is Wang Xuan's name." Both of their names appeared alone, The words are very large.Others appeared crowded together, with very small characters.The eccentricity is obvious.

Li Si just looked up, he couldn't read the words, but his son said that was their name.Li Si felt that the word was really beautiful, and the red banner was also extremely festive.

Then the school seemed to be very happy, and for the first time in the county shopping mall, a big poster was put up, with the grades of the two of them and the name of the university they were admitted to, printed on it in big letters, and people would watch from time to time.

"It's about us too."

Li Si was very excited. In his opinion, it was great to be written on the banner by the school. Now that the advertisement wall was erected in the square, his heart was really surging, and a sense of glory permeated his heart.

"Guangzong Yaozu, Guangzong Yaozu, that's probably it." Let the people passing by below admire his son's demeanor, just like the people who took the Jinshi examination in ancient times.Although there is only a name on it, no one else knows what the son looks like.

Because of the publicity in the county, many people know that the second place in the college entrance examination and the third place are the candidates in the county.And it's only two or three points behind the No. [-] pick.Many parents don't know that the difference in the college entrance examination, the gap and the ranking are different.I just thought it was just a few points, and if I worked harder, I would be equal.But in fact, less is less, Goudan and Wang Xuan understand this, even if they are only one-tenth more than them, they are still champions, right?

As a result, many people in the county are familiar with the names of No. [-] and Tanhua, but they are not very clear about No. [-] Lang.After all, they are too far away, not from this county.And many people don't have the habit of reading newspapers, they only know what the school advertises, those two students who were admitted to one of the highest universities in the capital.

"So, product promotion is very important." Goudan thought thoughtfully.

Next, they will visit Liu Yuan's house, which can be said to be one of the most helpful adults they know.After thanking the teacher, it's time to thank others. In order to express my gratitude, I bought some things in the mall and brought my father to the door in person.Li Si has never met Liu Yuan, but he often hears his son mention such a person. Although he is a bit stupid, he knows how to be grateful.

Liu Yuan listened to the words of thanks in the local dialect without changing his expression. He didn't dislike Li Si because he was an ignorant old native. He was very cautious.Use the dialogue between adults to chat with Li Si.Neither of them thought that Liu Yuan could not only understand "Mandarin" with a strong local accent, but also be able to speak it.

To be honest, both of them were a little curious that such an outstanding person would stay in a small county.Liu Yuan is actually not very old, only 36 or [-] years old, but he is very stable and refined, not like someone who is engaged in the work of a general.

Goudan and Wang Xuan treat guests to the best and most expensive hotel in the county for dinner. Of course, Goudan and Wang Xuan are a family, and there is no distinction between them. That is to say, they are both happy when they go to college, and they go to eat together.Aunt Liu didn't say she wanted to eat at home. The old lady happily changed into the new clothes that the two of them bought for her from the shopping mall in the Special Economic Zone. They were bought from the sea. They were made by old craftsmen, and the clothes were immediately luxurious and elegant. stand up.

Wang Xuan's sweet mouth made Mrs. Liu laugh out loud.As for Goudan, because he is getting bigger and bigger, he is no longer as sweet as he was for stuttering when he was a child. His eloquence is now transferred to a businessman.But I have to say that they are quite good at pleasing the elderly.

A few people had a very rich meal, and Goudan and Wang Xuan accompanied the old man to go shopping and buy groceries, because Goudan San stayed in the county for two days, in the rental house he just bought, no, it should be called the suburb of the county s home.The family not only applied for the homestead certificate, but now the homestead certificate belongs to Goudan. Although the process may not be so formal, it is legal in the end.

During those two days, Mrs. Liu asked them to come back for dinner every day, so Ye San didn't open fire at home in the suburbs. Two days later, Li Si missed the chickens, ducks and geese at home, especially the little yellow cow, so he went back first.Goudan and Wang Xuan stayed for two more days, and had a good time playing around with their classmates in the county before they went home with big bags and small bags.

Regarding the banquet at school, the two didn't plan to make a big deal. Although many people thought that they might have met a nobleman and seemed to be quite rich now, but well, apart from the clothes, the two of them had never revealed their wealth.No, the house is still the dilapidated thatched cottage.

Their family has a simple population, and it is too troublesome, costly and laborious.I can only explain to others that it will be a big deal when I get married in the future, because I have to save money to go to school, so there is no such big momentum, everyone understands.After all, it's only been two years since Li Si's family has had enough porridge, so how can they hold a big banquet.

Early in the morning, with two large iron pots borrowed from the brigade, they moved stones to make a temporary stove.The big pot used to eat big pot rice is still kept. A few years ago, when I was eating pig dishes, I moved it out to wash it and put it on the fire to cook soup.

Don't ask everyone to give you any red envelopes, it's just that Li Si's family is happy to have a child going to college, and all relatives and friends come to eat a bowl of Xi Noodle Soup to dip in the festivities.The noodles are vermicelli. Two skinless pig skulls and an old duck are buried under the cauldron, which are boiled in water.Scoop out more than half of the thick soup and put it on, then add water, and then start to make noodles.

Goudan's house doesn't have a bowl, and he doesn't plan to make it too complicated. Everyone in the same village brings their own bowls to scoop up noodles and eat them. A bowl of noodles, sprinkled with a handful of green onions, is very delicious.

In 85, how many people still had no enough food and clothing, and there were too many famines every year.The material is a little richer than before, but those who are still struggling with food and clothing account for about 80.00% of the country's five.It is already a good meal for Li Si to entertain everyone with fine grains such as dried noodles, so I am too embarrassed to eat them empty-handed, just a handful of rice and noodles.I brought all the vegetables, melons and beans.

The soup is watery, and the original soup from the bucket is added, and it is a good soup again.The meat bones and old duck that were fished out at the end were already soft and rotten, so they were disassembled and served on the table.The old village head and several village cadres and the entire old Li family's highly respected, long-lived old people and respectable people sat at the big table and ate this meat dish with noodles.

The others didn't, and the village committee won a little subsidy for them.As for the elders of the clan, they must attend important events of the clan.The Li family actually has a family tree. It was put away in the turbulent years, and now Goudan is admitted to university, which is equivalent to the need to record in ancient times.

Goudan suspected for a while, seeing that those old people could not read, how to manage the family tree.Moreover, many people are already uneasy about the ranking of the family tree when they choose their names, like Li Si and the others.This is especially true for Goudan's generation. If Goudan didn't go to school, he would probably be named Goudan for the rest of his life.There is nothing to say about this.

Of course, even though the genealogy has not recorded anything on it for decades, because everyone can't read, the old man still protects the things of his ancestors, and I don't know what they think.

Of course, the people in the old house of the Li family also drooped their faces, and were given a small bowl of meat, which was for Mrs. Li.

This is the end of the entrance banquet for the two of them, but it was still very lively.

Invited the friends to have another meal, and asked them to take care of their father Li Si when he was not at home.Even Da Zhuang, who has been discharged from the hospital, came here on crutches. Da Zhuang is very thin, not like a calf when he was a child.Daniel is also here, he is hard of hearing now, he simply has all the hands and feet, as long as he is willing to endure hardships, he can get by.

"Ah? Dad, is Dad going to the capital too? This,"

"Aren't you going to take us there?"

"This, this," Li Si scratched his head, he didn't even know where to open the gate of the capital, how to send the child.He couldn't finish his tour of the county town.

"That's where I live. I heard there are still photos hanging there. You don't want to go and see. Let's go early, and then I can take you back." If Li Si came back by himself, Goudan was still worried that he might get lost The way is lost.

Li Si was very moved. This dull man usually didn't leave the village, and he was either at home or in the field every day.If it wasn't for the first time to fight against the bag for his son, he wouldn't go to the county.

The capital city is the dream of many old peasants. Think about it, it is the place where great men live, and if it is further away, it is the imperial city.

"We can also visit the emperor's hometown. I heard that everyone will be allowed in."

"Are you still allowed in? Really? Then, isn't the emperor's house inside very, very nice, made of gold. So, will people see it?"

"Well, I should give it." Goudan was a little unsure, the palace was made of gold?I haven't heard of it, and no book in history has said that.People really can imagine.

"Success, all go." Li Si thought for a while and finally agreed.

With Li Si's words, Goudan began to make arrangements, except for getting train tickets, packing luggage, and bringing gifts to acquaintances in the capital.Things at home should also be arranged, otherwise Li Si would not feel at ease when he left.

After that, the apricot and plum saplings dug back from the mountain were planted in two rows starting from the gate of the yard at home, leaving a road wide enough for a car to pass between the two rows of trees, which will be their unique road in the future. Extending to the main road outside the village.

This is Goudan discovering that more and more people are building houses on their side, so as to prevent anyone from directly blocking the entrance and exit of his house in the future, and to book the road from the house to the main road first.Trees are planted on both sides. In the future, when the tree grows large, it will directly become a landscape tree for the road dedicated to his house. Others can only build houses in two directions outside the big trees on both sides of the road.

In this way, there is a straight passage from the home to the outside.Who dares to cut and block the road to try.

The watering is fixed, and the saplings are knee-high and not easy to die. The roots dug are deep, and they should be able to survive. If they die, they can be replanted.

I handed over the house to the old aunt's son Mingguang. I originally wanted to hand it over to Qizhi who reported late, but after thinking about it, I was worried that the old lady would be a monster and Qizhi couldn't stand it.Directly hand it over to Brother Mingguang in the clan. Brother Mingguang is in his thirties. He is very decent and a very prestigious existence among young people.

Goudan also followed Mingguang to find the old people in the clan, which Mingguang asked to be a witness.Goudan trusts him very much, but since he asks, Goudan will obey him.

"The chickens, ducks and geese laid eggs during that time at home, you can take them back and give my nephews and nieces additional meals, don't feel embarrassed. Keeping so many will spoil, and my father has raised enough, and then hatch the little ones , He worked too hard."

Goudan and Wang Xuan were about to leave, and they would go home less frequently. Li Si felt that if the chickens were kept to lay eggs, his son would not be able to eat them. He even pickled a lot of chicken, duck, geese and salted eggs.

By the way, Goudan killed some young roosters and old hens and ducks who couldn't lay eggs, made them into salted bacon, kept half and took the other half away.Wang Xuan's craftsmanship cannot be said. He always makes such things have a unique taste, as if there is a faint fragrance of medicinal herbs.Also great as a gift.

"Pick and eat the melons and vegetables at home, otherwise they will grow old and be wasted in vain. If you can't finish eating them, you can dry them into dried vegetables. By the way, there are also our notebooks. Well, the above is very comprehensive, basically made by Wang Xuan Yes, his notes are neat and beautiful, well-organized, and there are basically every subject.” As for his notes, few people can understand them, they are too messy, and he doesn’t like to take notes, so he does them directly in books .

Mingguang's daughter is also in high school, and her grades are good.Many people are greedy for their books and notes.Mingguang wanted the notes of the two of them very much before.

"Let's take the one from the first year of high school, too many at once and it's easy to mess up. It just so happens that Wang Xuan organizes it smoothly every year." Keeping it is also keeping it. It doesn't need to take up space. It's better to give it to children in need.

"Okay, that's all. I don't know how many people want to borrow your notebooks and exercise books. Now Nier just needs to study according to the above, and she won't worry about her grades in the future..."

"Take your time, don't put too much pressure on my niece, you see my father didn't say anything and we both passed the exam."

That's because your father didn't understand it, and even his son's college entrance examination had to be reminded to know.

Mingguang hahaha, he and Goudan are very different in age, they can be his father, but they are of the same generation, Goudan has to call him brother, and this kid is very smart, he is very good at trouble, you basically can't do it Treat him like a child.

Grandpa boarded the train going north with anticipation and apprehension.In Li Si's whole life, in his words, the loess was buried up to his neck, and it was the first time he had taken a train.Goudan and Wang Xuan didn't want to think about it when they took the train, especially every summer and winter vacation, which were difficult times.

But everything was confused and unfamiliar to this man Li Si. He wanted to put all the luggage on his shoulders, but found that he couldn't carry it.The son took it with one hand and carried it with ease.

I am old!Li Si thought to himself.

Since you can't afford to carry a big bag, at least be careful not to get lost with your son and cause trouble.So Li Si stared at Goudan closely until he got on the train and his son put his luggage in order, so he didn't feel relieved.Along the way, the two told Li Si the common sense and tips of taking the train. If he got lost, he could ask the staff at the train station to ask someone to use the loudspeaker to shout while walking, etc.

How to hide money, how to eat, how to go to the toilet, how to get hot water, etc., are all nagging to him, and Li Si memorizes them very carefully.The old man, who had never traveled far in his life, carefully explored everything around him like a child. He was surprised to see the baby in the next seat crying.

"It's really a blessing to take the train at such a young age." After all, the society is different.

When the train started and got used to the speed, Li Si's heart soared for the first time, his face was full of wrinkles, and he was cautiously happy.What's more, the old train moving forward, carrying Ye San's deep expectation for the capital, runs forward on the track day and night.
