"Brother Yongbing."

When he heard Wang Yongbing ask about his grades, Gong Shan immediately seemed a little embarrassed. He scratched his head, looked at Gong Le quietly, and whispered: "My academic performance is not good, not as good as my brother. He can only get about a dozen places in the class."

"A dozen people? That's very good too." Wang Yongbing comforted him and said.

Gong Shan shook his head and said seriously: "Brother Yongbing, my brother told me that only learning can change his destiny. You must learn well and be the first in the school."

"The first in the school?"

Wang Yongbing was stunned when he heard this and couldn't help but say, "This is too exaggerated, right? How difficult is this?" He has never passed the exam for the first place in the school in his life. He only had a glorious record of being the first in the class, which can be traced back to the kindergarten period.

“Not difficult.”

Gong Shan shook his head and said seriously: "My brother is the first in the school every year, and later the first in the county. Compared with my brother, the difference is too far away." After saying that, he shook his head and sighed, "I don't think I'm the one who studies!"

"Don't compete with your brother, he is non-human." Wang Yongbing gave Gong Le a blank smile.

"Gong Shan, then what do you think you want to do?"

Chen Hao, who had been listening to the two of them chatting next to him, suddenly asked.

"Brother Chen, I...I want to make money." Gong Shan hesitated for a moment, scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly.

"Haha, the world is prosperous and prosperous for profit, and the world is supported for profit. It is normal for you to make money, and there is nothing to be embarrassed about."

Seeing Gong Shan's appearance, Chen Hao couldn't help laughing, patted his shoulder, and said seriously: "Remember Brother Chen's words, knowledge changes destiny. There is nothing wrong with this sentence, but at the same time, it is not only knowledge, but also hands that can change destiny."

"Hands?" Gong Shan didn't understand what Chen Hao meant. After thinking about it carefully, he said honestly: "Brother Chen, I didn't understand what you said."

"Have you ever heard of it?" Chen Hao looked at Gong Shan with a smile.

"I've heard of it." Gong Shan nodded vigorously, and then he sighed and said, "Brother Chen, I think this sentence is a lie. The people in our village have been working all the time, but our village is still very poor."

"Things need to be seen separately."

Chen Hao laughed silently and said, "Everything has two sides. You know it in the opposite direction. If the direction is wrong, no matter how hard you try, the final result will be further and further away from the right direction. But can this prove that you are doing the right thing?"

“That’s true.”

Gong Shan nodded.

"Yongbing, isn't it almost done?" Gong Le sat down for a while, stood up and said, "Let's hurry up and leave, otherwise it would be dark."

Wang Yongbing beat his legs and said, "Let's go!"

Several people continued to walk on the road again. Seeing Wang Yongbing's tired look, Gong Shan said, "Brother Yongbing, otherwise, you can sit on this flatbed car and I will push you away."

"No, no, no, no, no, no," Wang Yongbing shook his head and waved his hand, and said, "I can still hold on."

"Then if you can't hold on, you can sit up. It's okay, I can push you."

Gong Shan smiled at Wang Yongbing honestly.

After walking for about an hour, from afar, I saw dozens of houses of families scattered in the mountains next to the mountain road.

"Gong Le, that's your family?" Wang Yongbing suddenly felt refreshed and asked at the houses.

"Well, have you seen that family?" Gong Le pointed to a dirt house and said, "That's our family!"

Gong Shan's pace accelerated a little more and walked towards the village.

Chen Hao looked at this rainy village while walking. The rainy village gave him the feeling that it was as if it was still in the 1960s. However, as Gong Le said, the mountains around this rainy village were lush. At a glance, Chen Hao saw more than a dozen cinnamon trees.

It’s New Year’s Eve today, but in the heavy rain village, except for seeing Spring Festival couplets on the doors of every household, I can’t feel the atmosphere of the New Year anymore.

"Bang" sound, Wang Yongbing was startled by the sudden sound. Then he realized that it was the sound of cannons. He turned his head and saw a child appearing behind the walls of a family in the village. He looked at Chen Hao and others with curious eyes, and then he shrank his head back.

"That's the village chief's grandson." Gong Le recognized this naughty child at a glance.

"... Gong Le, Gong Shan, why are you back?"

An old man walked out from behind a few big trees with a basket on his back. When he saw them, he was slightly stunned and a little surprised and said, "How is your mother's illness? Have you been better? Is Sanya there to take care of your mother?"

This old man is nothing but the barefoot doctor in the village Uncle Hong.

"Uncle Hong, Sanya is taking care of my mother in the hospital. She is much better now. Thank you for your concern." Gong Le quickly nodded to Uncle Hong and pointed at Chen Hao and Wang Yongbing, saying, "They are my classmates."

When Chen Hao and Wang Yongbing arrived in the county town, Uncle Hong had already returned to Dayu Village, so he did not see them.

"Hello Uncle Hong." Chen Hao and Wang Yongbing greeted Uncle Hong with a smile.

Chen Hao looked at him a few more times. Chen Hao was still a little curious about the only barefoot doctor in the village. His eyes fell on Uncle Hong's basket. He recognized that some plants like grass were placed inside, which were Chinese herbal medicines that stopped bleeding and removed stasis.

"Hello, you guys in the city." Uncle Hong nodded to Chen Hao and Wang Yongbing with a smile, and said, "Welcome to go back to my house to play. Gong Le, the village chief's son was working yesterday and injured his foot. I won't talk to you now. I have to go and treat him." After that, he smiled at Chen Hao, turned around and walked quickly towards a family.

"Uncle Hong."

Gong Shan hurriedly shouted from behind: "Is your door open? I'll return the car to you."

"Go and go, just put it in the yard."

Uncle Hong waved his hand without looking back.

"Brother, then I'll go and return the car first. You can take Brother Chen and Brother Yongbing and others home first." Gong Shan said hello, pushed the car and continued to walk into the village.

"Brother Chen, Yongbing, let's go."

Gong Le greeted the two of them and walked towards the house first.

Wang Yongbing was looking at the families in the village along the way. Occasionally, he saw one or two villagers in the rainy village. Gong Le would greet them. These people looked at Chen Hao and Wang Yongbing curiously and asked about their relationship with Gong Le. When they learned that they were talking about Gong Le’s college classmates, the villagers suddenly realized. Then, they also took the initiative to greet them enthusiastically and invited them to visit their homes.

"... Gong Shan, the people in your village are quite enthusiastic."

Wang Yongbing and Gong Le said.

“Enthusiasm is enthusiasm.”

Gong Le smiled, then sighed, and said, "But, just listen, don't take it seriously."

"What's the meaning?"

Wang Yongbing looked at him in confusion.

"Although they invite you to visit your home, most of them just talk." Gong Le explained: "If you really go, they will definitely be unhappy."

"ah?"

Wang Yongbing was confused when he heard this. Thinking of a villager who was very enthusiastic about coming to my house to play, he asked half-believably: "Why?"

"Because I'm poor."

Chen Hao said a word from the side and sighed, "If you really go, what will people treat you? It is not appropriate not to entertain you. If you entertain you, you have to take out the things they don't want to eat or drink. It would be strange if they are happy."

"Brother Chen is right."

Gong Le said with a wry smile: "This is indeed the reality."

"So since this is the case, why are you still so hypocritical?" Wang Yongbing shook his head.

"Then what you mean is to let others say you are not welcome to visit?" Chen Hao asked back and said with a smile: "Just listen to some words, don't take them seriously."

"arrive."

Gong Le stopped, pointed to the family in front of him, and said, "Brother Chen, Yongbing, this is my family."

Chen Hao and Wang Yongbing looked at the family. There was a soil wall about one meter high outside. After years of wind and sun, some parts of the soil wall had collapsed. The yard was very large and there were a few chickens inside. They walked around the ground, occasionally bowing their heads and pecking at the grass seeds. In the corner of the yard, there was a pigpen and three small houses, which were made of brick and wood, but it seemed to feel a little shaky.

"That's the kitchen, that's the bedroom of my mother and Sanya, this is where Gong Shan and I sleep."

Gong Le pointed to the three houses, introduced them to Chen Hao and Wang Yongbing, and said, "Brother Chen, Yongbing, tonight, you can live in the house of my mother and others, which is cleaner than the house of me and my brother."

"Um."

Chen Hao smiled and nodded and said, "You can follow the customs of the countryside, follow your arrangements."

After entering, the simplicity of the house was beyond Wang Yongbing's imagination. Chen Hao glanced at it and did not feel too surprised. Wang Yongbing looked around, found a broom, rolled up his sleeves, and started cleaning.

"Brother Chen, you go to the yard for a while."

While working, Gong Le said to Chen Hao: "This place is too small, it's enough to have me and Yongbing."
