chapter 2

"If the heart is in the dream, there is true love between heaven and earth. It depends on success or failure in life, but it is just a start again~"

A loud singing came from outside, and Song Song slowly opened his eyes and breathed in the air with a sweet fragrance of fruit around him.

Two women quarrels outside—

"What's wrong with you? I said that my son will take the college entrance examination tomorrow and is sleeping in the car now. You still play the song so loudly, and you are deliberately not letting others rest well, right?"

"Oh, your son is about to take the college entrance examination, and you still haven't forgotten to come out to speculate?"

"Bah! The crime of speculation has been cancelled this year. You can read more news!"

"You also said to watch more news. I tell you, the song we played was on CCTV, so why aren't you allowed to play it? I insist on playing it!"

The conversation is getting clearer and clearer.

Everything is too true.

Song Song sat up with difficulty, feeling the chill caused by ice and snow in his chest. He turned his head to look at the narrow carriage with a newspaper posted on it with a date. On July 1, 1997, the front page news was that a bright red national flag was raised next to the Bauhinia Flag.

There were quite a few major events in 1997. One was the return of Hong Kong City, and the other was that the country was facing a huge wave of unemployment.

In order to encourage laid-off workers to re-employ employment, the country has hired people to write many inspirational songs. "Start from Start" is one of them.

After the return of Hong Kong City, his grandfather was very happy. He paid for a few newspapers and posted them solemnly on their walls and on the broken trucks. He had to read the front page news twice every day, as happy as a child.

All of this was already asleep in Song Song's memory, but it came to her eyes again, which made Song Song unable to determine whether he was in a dream for a while.

Recalling the pain of gradually losing air on the snow-capped mountains, Song Song took a few breaths of fresh air.

Song Song moved his hands and feet, walked over baskets of fruits outside, and walked outside the carriage.

The bright sunshine made him unable to open his eyes.

Song Song adapted to the bright sunlight for a while before seeing the old streets outside.

He recognized this place as an old street in the provincial capital, and later the demolition also caused many farces of destruction.

"Son, have you been sleeping?" Song's mother was quarreling with someone, but she noticed that Song Song got out of the car and immediately turned back and pulled Song Song and said, "You will be in the college entrance examination tomorrow. If you want to take a break, you should rest more. Don't worry too much about your family. I know your father's medical expenses. If it really doesn't work, you can still borrow some of your Uncle Biao. These things are not what you should think of. You are still young, and taking a good exam tomorrow is a serious matter. The more others look down on our family, the more you want to show them."

Song Song's Adam's apple rolled slightly.

He hasn't heard these naggings for many years.

When he saw the old street outside, Song Song vaguely guessed what day it was, but when he heard Song Ma say it with his own ears, he was still like a dream. It is July 6, 1997, and tomorrow is July 7, 1997, and he is going to take the college entrance examination.

He is destined to not receive any admission letters in this college entrance examination.

It’s not because of how bad his grades are, nor because he has forgotten all his high school knowledge after a lifetime, but because the college entrance examination is filled out in advance at this time.

In the later college entrance examinations, most of them fill out their application forms after the scores are released. Candidates are basically aware of what schools they can and what schools they cannot go to.

But it was different in 1997. They first filled out their application form and then took the college entrance examination. No matter how well they performed during the exam, they could not change their application form.

Song Song only filled out one application: Capital University.

It’s not that Song Song was so good or confident in studying back then, but that he was not ready to go to college at all.

He has a very flexible mind and can do things, which makes his teachers and elders love him very much, but his studies are always mediocre.

This is true for adolescent boys. If you are a little smart, you are unwilling to work hard. Just be able to live a careless life.

There were a series of accidents at home. My father was reluctant to use good steel plates in a car accident. My grandfather didn’t dare to go to the hospital if he had heart problems. Grandma, his ears were not very good, and he also had a sign of Alzheimer’s disease.

The family of five is all about their mothers.

In two years, my sister will take the college entrance examination. His sister is the material for learning. She has been the first in the grade since she was a child, but she is much better than him.

In this case, what university does he study for?

Even if he takes the exam hard, he will probably only be admitted to a poor university. The tuition fee is so expensive that he can't learn anything.

So Song Song filled out his application for Capital University without telling his family and made up his mind to drop out of school and make money.

It’s a pity that he didn’t make any money, and the whole family was in a state of turmoil. They died and scattered.

Later, my sister didn't invite him when she got married, and neither of them had a good time ever since they died.

Now, can everything be done again?

Song Song was still not sure that everything in front of him was real, so he couldn't help but reach out to hug Song's mother, who was still young in front of him.

The person he hugged was warm.

It's not the cold and closed corpse in my memory.

Song Song's Adam's apple rolled gently twice, suppressing his churning mood, and hugging Song's mother tightly.

He is back and he can change the future that has not happened yet. He will no longer let his mother overwork at a young age and lead to sudden myocardial infarction, nor will he let his mother die on the way to the police station to lead him home.

Song's mother has a strong personality and has suffered heavy damage from her family. She didn't even shed a tear. But when she was suddenly hugged by Song Song, she didn't know how to react.

For those living in the 1990s, parents rarely hug each other or say words like "I love your parents/I love you and my children". They are subtle in their emotions and in their actions.

"Don't be too nervous," Song's mother's voice rarely softened, and she lost her usual strongness. She patted Song Song's back and said, "It doesn't matter if she doesn't pass the exam. You can repeat the exam for one year and continue the exam. Don't put too much pressure on yourself."

Song Song put his head on Song Ma's shoulder and found that he was half a head taller than Song Ma's at this time.

His mother is tall in the village, but he still has her. His birthday is coming soon, and he will once again officially enter the ranks of adults.

Song Song's lips moved, but he didn't say anything about his wishes in the end.

If you live a lifetime, the money problem will definitely be solved. This time he will not be so impatient anymore, and he will have the confidence to take it slowly.

Repeating the class is a good choice. In the end of his previous life, he relied on himself to earn more than 100 million yuan. The Gu family still looked down on him and felt that handing over Gu Linshen's research results to him for promotion was a disgrace to those precious technologies.

Song Song felt that it was necessary to get into a good university. He was a man of two lives and had only obtained a high school degree. It was really embarrassing to tell him about it.

Next, Song Song took out his admission ticket and went to the No. 1 Middle School entrance examination room to take a look, and quickly remembered how to walk in his examination room so as to ensure that the exam would be smooth the next day.

The security guard only asked the candidates to go in to see the examination room. Song Ma kept waiting outside and sold two baskets of fruits.

Seeing Song Songcong come out calmly, Song Ma moved the fruit she brought out and returned to the car and asked, "Have you found it? Is the location good? Can the fan be blown? On this hot day, it would be too painful to spread it to a position where the fan cannot be blown!"

Song Song said: "The location is just under the fan, it should be quite cool."

Song Ma had another concern: "Then you can turn the fan to the low gear, don't blow it with the maximum gear. What should I do if I have a cold and don't perform well in the next few games?"

"Okay." Song Song agreed with a smile.

Song's mother drove Song Song to the guesthouse to meet with the teachers. She asked Song Song back and forth whether she had any pens and tools ready. She also told Song Song to take the admission ticket and not to lose it, and never overslept tomorrow, and also things like "take one subject and give one subject" and "just do your best."

She had already said something, but she couldn't help but whisper twice, for fear that Song Song would forget it. She was even more nervous than Song Song, the candidate, the candidate.

This is how it is to be a parent. No matter what happens, you can't help but worry.

When he arrived at the guesthouse, Song Song turned around and told him: "Mom, you should have a good rest too. Don't work too hard. I'll help you after the exam."

When her son is sensible, Song Ma is naturally happy. She is not the kind of parent who is abusing her children. After hearing Song Song's words, she immediately said: "You will definitely be your part after the exam. Then you don't think about being lazy."

Song Song agreed with a smile and got out of the car with a stationery bag containing the admission ticket.

Song Ma watched her son walk into the guesthouse, recalling her son’s smile just now and what her son said, feeling both relieved and sour.

When a child grows up, those who are parents will definitely be happy; but when a parent, they always hope that the child will always be a child. As long as you study hard, you don’t have to worry about your family.

If the parents weren't too useless, how could the children become mature and responsible early?

On the other hand, Song Song went to report to his class teacher Lao Cai.

Lao Cai is only in his early forties this year and is bald early in life. He has a good figure and has not had time to grow a beer belly.

When he saw Song Song, Lao Cai had a cold face and snorted from his nose, obviously not wanting to pay attention to him.

Song Song knew that he was in the wrong, so he touched his nose and actively ran to Lao Cai to show his presence: "Class, I'm back."

"I have eyes and can see you." Old Cai said coldly.

Seeing Song Song's face that was more outstanding than the star on the poster, Old Cai felt bleeding in his heart. When he saw Song Song at first, he felt that this kid would definitely have a great future in the future. He has been treating Song Song as a favorite student in the past three years, and has taught him a lot of learning principles.

As a result, Song Song changed the first, second and third choices to Capital University.

He was so angry that his nose was pissed when he saw the report form. He persuaded the brat for days and said that he could lend him money as tuition. The brat was unwilling to do so, saying that he could not let the burden of the family be on his mother.

What can Lao Cai do? Lao Cai can only submit the volunteer form that obviously cannot receive the admission notice.

Since then, although Lao Cai has helped Song Song keep his mouth shut, he has never given Song Song a good face again.

It’s like the flowers that have been carefully cultivated for three years have been uprooted. Who can be happy?

Song Song remembered all the past, and felt warm in his heart when he met Lao Cai's long-lost cold face.

He opened his hand and gave Lao Cai a hug, and let go again before Lao Cai reacted.

Song Song said seriously: "You wait for me for a summer vacation, and when I finish this summer vacation, I will go back to resume my year of school. I heard that you will stay in the senior year of high school next year?"

In county high schools, teachers basically bring students from the first year of high school to the third year of high school. However, this year's situation is special. A class teacher in the second year of high school is about to give birth, and I guess he can't keep up with the third year of high school. Lao Cai will continue to stay in the third year of high school to take over the class.

Lao Cai didn't care where Song Song heard the news, and only noticed the first half of Song Song's sentence: "Do you really decide to repeat the exam?"

"I have thought it through clearly. You still have to go to college," Song Song said. "I will never lose face if I repeat the study."

Now Lao Cai did not show his face to Song Song.

He raised his palm and patted Song Song's shoulder heavily, and said with a smile: "That's right! What's the problem? Tell me, I'll think of a solution for you. Just like you, a calves, what can you do when you go out now? You must study in college! You will also give me a serious exam tomorrow, just treat it as an exercise, and then take it again next year, at least you have more experience than others."
