Rebirth 78, the beginning of the marriage was broken off by the female educated youth

"Young man!"

At this moment, a middle-aged man suddenly walked out from the crowd. It was the man who drove the tractor over before. He solemnly picked up a shoulder bag from a chair beside him, smoothed the wrinkles on it with his hand, walked over and bowed to Li Chaodong first.

"You're great! You saved both our families! But I feel a little sorry for you! That day you saved me and rushed to the hospital carrying the old lady on your back! I lay on the ground for a long time before I saw your left schoolbag by the water!"

"I didn't know who you were, so I looked through your things and saw that you were a student taking the college entrance exam this year! I was so anxious that I rushed to the hospital to look for you! I looked everywhere and asked a lot of people, but they all said they hadn't seen you anymore! I thought you definitely couldn't go to the exam, so I rushed to your school, but the guard said you were gone. I was so anxious that I ran around in circles! I searched the entire county, but I couldn't find you!"

The driver beat his chest and stamped his feet as he spoke, his face full of regret and unwillingness, and his hands holding the shoulder bag were shaking.

This shoulder bag carries Li Chaodong's hope for the college entrance examination and is a turning point in his life!

If it weren't for the time wasted saving him and the old lady, Li Chaodong would definitely not have missed the first exam of the college entrance examination.

Knowledge changes destiny, and the college entrance examination is the best way to change your life.

Taking the college entrance examination is the touchstone of your destiny.

Similarly, missing the college entrance examination is also a huge turning point in the trajectory of destiny.

Winning or losing does not matter.

The driver knows this very well.

Li Xiangnan naturally knew this too.

He gently pinched his brother Li Chaodong's shoulder and nodded at the driver.

Li Chaodong wiped his tears, turned his head, looked at his father's expectant and affirmative eyes, and his eyes suddenly became firm.

He walked over, reached out and gently took his bag, stroked the cover with his fingers, and sighed, "Uncle, I don't regret it. I'm still young and there are still opportunities. My studies are not solid enough yet, and I think another year is just enough for me to fully master the textbook knowledge!"

The middle-aged driver's eyes widened, his eyes were shocked, and his eye sockets were slightly red.

This kid, although still young, has actually learned to comfort him instead.

"Good boy!" He choked up and reached out to press Li Chaodong's shoulder. "You will definitely be as successful as your brother in the future!"

"That's inevitable!"

At this time, the middle-aged man who was pushing the old lady's wheelchair smiled, walked around from behind the wheelchair, reached out and held Li Chaodong's hand, and did not look down on him because of his young age.

"Student Chaodong, on behalf of my mother, I want to thank you!" The middle-aged man's eyes were red, his attitude was sincere, and he waved his hand solemnly. "If you hadn't carried my mother to the hospital in time, we would have missed the golden time for rescue! My mother also has a cerebral infarction and high blood pressure. The doctor said that if you were a few minutes later, I might not be able to see my mother..."

Having said that, he pursed his lips to control his emotions, and quickly put his other hand over and shook Li Chaodong's hand with both hands.

"If you don't do well in the college entrance exam next year, I'll take care of your job!"

The crowd was in an uproar.

Only then did people take a meaningful look at the middle-aged man's elegant Mao suit.

This promise not only made the onlookers envious, but also made them happy for Li Chaodong.

His work naturally has a foundation, which is more valuable than any simple gift.

"Thank you for your kindness, uncle!"

Of course, Li Chaodong was not a fool. He forced a smile and said to the other person, "I will study hard!"

"Hmm..." The man in the Zhongshan suit smiled with relief.

"Jianqiang!"

Suddenly there was a shout from behind.

Hong Jianqiang quickly turned around and pushed the wheelchair.

The old lady's kind face was full of smiles, and she had her hand stretched out in the air from a distance.

Seeing this, Li Chaodong hurried over.

"Little Chaodong!" The old lady smiled with relief and reached out to hold Li Chaodong's hand affectionately. "They are still reserved in their words, please don't mind..."

Li Chaodong was a little surprised by the old lady's bluntness and quickly shook his head: "How could that be..."

"You saved a life, mine! He said it so lightly, but he was actually very grateful in his heart! It's just that at this age, you have to think too much before you speak! Repaying a debt of gratitude, how can a job offset it!"

Everyone's eyelids opened slightly.

"If you have anything to say in the future, remember this, Chaodong! My son's name is Hong Jianqiang. If you have anything to say, remember to find him!"

Li Chaodong nodded silently, and subconsciously turned around to look at the people around him.

He found that the villagers in the village were all very confused, as if they had never heard of who Hong Jianqiang was. But when he looked at his father, he saw a look of surprise on his face. He guessed that his father must have known the other party, or had heard of the name Hong!

"Sister-in-law! The meal is ready!"

At this time, Ji Qingfang in the kitchen shouted to the crying Tong Yu.

"Ai!"

Tong Yu quickly wiped her tears and called to her husband, "Fuqiang, call everyone to eat! Don't stay in the yard, come inside and sit down!"

Li Fuqiang nodded, then nodded to his younger brother Li Fuqin, and together they said, "Come sit inside! It's noon, let's eat at home!"

People suddenly became excited and went into the house in a lively manner.

"mom!"

Only then did Li Chaodong separate from the old lady and called out "Mom" with red eyes.

"Chaodong!" Tong Yu came over and hugged her son, pinching his face. "Although you've lost weight, you've become stronger. Mom is proud of you!"

"Mom!" Li Chaodong grinned and asked worriedly, "Where's Zhang Yang? Did he do well in his exams these past two days? Did he stay in class late?"

"What are you talking about!" Tong Yu rolled her eyes at her son and pointed at the door.

Li Chaodong looked back and couldn't help but shudder all over.

He saw his good friend Zhang Yang hiding by the gate of the patio and crying.

His eyes widened and he was stunned.

"Zhang Yang! What the hell are you doing? Today is the last day of the college entrance exam, why are you here? Aren't you taking the exam?"

Li Chaodong shouted this, ran over and grabbed the other person's collar.

Zhang Yang's eyes were red. He let him grab his collar and choked out a sob, "Chaodong, although I took the first exam, my mind was completely off the test paper. I was worried about you! I couldn't find you in the exam room and was worried you were still in the hospital. When I got there, I realized they were looking for you everywhere!"

"I knew something had happened when I saw you weren't there for the exam this afternoon! I didn't attend either! I saw your parents, the hospital staff, and the police all looking for you, so I knew something had happened to you! I went to several places we usually go but couldn't find you. I was so worried! I know your personality, you must be scared..."

Li Chaodong yelled, "Don't tell me you didn't take the exam without telling your parents."

Zhang Yang reached out and grabbed Li Chaodong's hand, saying sincerely, "Brother, we saved this person together, so we'll shoulder this responsibility together! I'll be with you for next year's college entrance exam!"

"..." Li Chaodong opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word. He just reached out and hugged his good brother, and said softly, "Okay."

He looked through his tearful eyes and saw the small courtyard in the midday light was full of smiling faces.

Last year's red peppers are hanging under the eaves, and the cockscombs at the base of the wall are in full bloom. Everything is the most simple rural scene, but it looks particularly touching at this moment.

He suddenly remembered what his elder brother often said: The most precious thing in this world is never fame, fortune or wealth.

At this moment, he finally understood - what was more important than the college entrance examination were the people in front of him who truly laughed and cried for him.
