The Utopia of the Wastewood Prince

86

"I'll announce the results of this monthly exam, and the students whose names are called come up to get their report cards. No.1, Shen Yi..."

The teacher announced the students' monthly exam results one by one. Some of the students looked relaxed and some looked gloomy.But a small monthly exam doesn't mean anything, except for Shen Yi who always comes first in the exam.

Li Jiaoyang looked at his deskmate and went up to get his report card first. It was obviously something worth showing off, but Shen Yi didn't show any expression.But it's normal to say that the "first" thing looks precious, and if you always take it, it's actually an ordinary thing.Don't the poor feel that the meat is delicious if they can't eat a bite of meat all year round?People with large families eat meat every meal, how can they taste what they eat.

"It's really a wealthy family's wine and meat stinks and the bones are frozen to death." Li Jiaoyang's head immediately came up with these words, and then the teacher called his name.

"No. 30 five, Li Jiaoyang." The teacher glanced at him, and he went up in despair.

They were a key class. There were only 35 students in one class. Li Jiaoyang couldn't pass the exam no matter what.When he first entered this class, he was still a pig. After going through the baptism of the exam, he would still have faint labor pains. It was obvious that he had been scalded to a dead pig. He didn't change his face when he saw the grades, and he didn't even complain about him. Pop threw him into this hell on earth.

During the big class break, Li Jiaoyang ran out to play, Shen Yi was doing the questions on his seat, and glanced at Li Jiaoyang's exam paper.When Li Jiaoyang came back, Shen Yi pointed to a math problem on the paper and asked him: "Didn't I tell you about this problem?"

"Ah?" Li Jiaoyang frantically recalled, "Tell... have you talked about it?"

Shen Yi immediately took out the title of Haidian from the desk, flipped through a few pages, and placed it in front of Li Jiaoyang: "This is it."

Li Jiaoyang glanced at it in a daze, and said, "These two are not the same question."

"It's a question type! If you change the number, you won't recognize it?" Shen Yi asked seriously, "Are you listening to me well?"

The mountain rain was about to come and the wind filled the building, Li Jiaoyang saw that this posture was not right, no matter how he tried to fool the ancestor in front of him, he must be the one who got angry and suffered.

"Hey, don't be angry, don't be angry, I just have this brain." He admitted his problem first, and the content of the apology was very simple, "IQ level is not very high, so I can't flexibly draw inferences from one instance to another. But I really listened to it at the time. Very serious, I remember every word you said, you said last week that you wanted to buy Maaya Sakamoto's album."

Shen Yi asked: "Do you know who Maaya Sakamoto is?"

"I don't know, he must be Japanese after all." Li Jiaoyang shook his head first, and then put his hand on Shen Yi's shoulder habitually, "My brother is going to Japan next week, I asked him to bring you one back?"

Shen Yi pushed Li Jiaoyang's hand away in distaste, and ignored Li Jiaoyang's bribery behavior. Instead, he said seriously: "The college entrance examination is about to take place in a few months. How can you go to university with your appearance?"

"Why are you like my parents?"

"I……"

Li Jiaoyang's tragedy is that he is in an environment full of big hands, and that mortal person must be a proper [-]-year-old crane tail.But putting him in the whole grade, he can actually sway at the middle level. If you say that the grades are poor, it is really unfair to him.

Shen Yi, who was in the temple, didn't care about these things, he could only see Li Jiaoyang being the last one, and his heart ached.Coincidentally, the level between him and No. 30's four classmates is far from that of the others.This made Shen Yi feel like his work was done for nothing, and Li Jiaoyang would play tricks on him all day long. In fact, he didn't care what he said at all, otherwise he wouldn't have been like this all the time.

Li Jiaoyang is neither stupid nor stupid, and his IQ is no problem, he just doesn't work hard.

And "not working hard" itself is against Biren's "working hard".

Shen Yi was very angry, and he couldn't get it out, he could only hold back his anger, and on the outside, he had a gloomy face and didn't speak, which made Li Jiaoyang dare not take a breath, and walked behind Shen Yi's butt after school.

"Why are you following me?" Shen Yi suddenly turned around.

"Ah? No, no." Li Jiaoyang pointed to the front, "I'll take the subway home."

Shen Yi said, "Do you usually take the subway?"

"Why not?" Li Jiaoyang said, "The four words of hard work and bravery are excellent genes imprinted in the blood of the Chinese people, okay? Hey...are you in a bad mood today?"

"No." Shen Yi continued to walk forward, Li Jiaoyang took two quick steps and followed Shen Yi.When he spoke to Shen Yi, he was always a little condescending and petty. He flattered him and coaxed him: "We have been at the same table for so many years. I still can't tell if you are happy? Oh, what a big thing an exam is. It’s different from this one. When the time comes, close your eyes and shake your hands, won’t it be over? You have to believe that everything is God’s will in the dark, what if I want to shiver with you and enter a school? Tsinghua University, Peking University, you Choose one, and we will still sit at the same table when the time comes."

"You're so beautiful!" Shen Yi finally had an emotional expression on his face.

Li Jiaoyang said frankly: "Don't think about the good, should I think about the bad? The worst thing in life is to kick your legs. What else can you do if you don't have sweet dreams?"

What kind of Lotte theory is this?Shen Yi couldn't understand it at all. He asked, "Then what other dreams do you have? What do you want to do?"

"Let me think about it." Li Jiaoyang tapped his lower lip with his finger, and actually thought about it carefully, "I want to make a lot of money in the future, and then play."

"Your family is already very rich." Shen Yi expressed boredom with this answer, "You can play with your family every day without even going to school, and you won't have to worry about spending all your money in your next life."

Li Jiaoyang said: "It's different. My parents earned my family's money. I just had a better life and got a better pregnancy. I lived a little richer than others in the first 18 years. But that's not my own money. I was really intimidated when I was spending money. You see, my dad threw me into this class. I don’t like it, but can I resist? Not at all. Because whoever gives me money to spend is my dad, and I If he said no, he would have been kicked out a long time ago. My brother, you know, he is much freer than me now."

The rich second generation also has the worries of the rich second generation. Li Jiaoyang's words are not rough, and the money in the family belongs to the rich, but after all, it is an educated family, and the education of the three views on the children is still in place.Li Jiaoyang spends money lavishly and never pays for it. This is a common problem for children of his age, but he knows the truth in his heart.

"So you want to play when you have money?" Shen Yi continued to ask him.

"Otherwise?" Li Jiaoyang said, "If you don't play when you are rich, do you want to play when you are poor? Isn't it that so many people work hard to make money so that they can have fun in the future?"

Shen Yi snorted: "What you think is simple."

"Why do you want to be so complicated?" Li Jiaoyang put his arm around Shen Yi's shoulder and asked him, "What about you? You have such good grades, so you must have many ways out and choices in the future, right? I have never heard of what you want in the future. what to do?"

Shen Yi himself hadn't thought about this question. In fact, it was because his grades were so good that it restricted many of his thoughts.His wish is very simple, whether it is to open a comic book store or to set up a small shop around it, these categories seem to be done by people with no prospects. Buying and selling one with a small budget is not something that people like Shen Yi would dabble in. arrived.

In the eyes of others, in the expectations of his parents, Shen Yi might become a financial leader in the business elite, or engage in some other high-level career, or else it would be a waste of talents.

"I..." Shen Yi hesitated, and finally told Li Jiaoyang, "I might go abroad."

"Do you want to go abroad to study as a graduate student?" Li Jiaoyang said, "It's not bad."

"No." Shen Yi said, "Undergraduate."

"Ah?" Li Jiaoyang didn't understand.

Shen Yi said: "My parents don't want me to go to university in China. They think that since I have to go abroad in the future, it's better to study abroad with a bachelor's degree. Taking advantage of my young age, I may adapt faster."

"Then you won't take the domestic college entrance examination?" Li Jiaoyang asked.

"Yeah." Shen Yi nodded, "Actually, it doesn't matter if you take the exam or not, even if you pass the exam, you won't take the exam."

Li Jiaoyang counted the time with his fingers, and hurriedly asked: "Then you will be leaving in a few months?"

In terms of time, Shen Yi deliberately didn't calculate it, and could only follow Li Jiaoyang's lead and say, "It should be."

"Then, how long are you going to go, and will you come back later?"

"do not know."

After a brief silence, Li Jiaoyang said, "...so sudden."

Shen Yi said, "Sooner or later, it's the same."

"It's different from what I thought." Li Jiaoyang said, "I thought everyone would stay in Beijing to go to university, even if they went abroad, it would be after that."

"That's why." Shen Yi said, "You think so well."

Li Jiaoyang had always been the one who talked endlessly, but he was much quieter along the way.The sudden parting caused him a lot of sad emotions. At his age, the parting he can experience is very limited.

After graduating from elementary school, I didn't know what sadness was at that time. The students didn't live very far away, and I could still see them often during the holidays.

After graduating from junior high school, it's okay, and many people went to the same high school.

After graduating from high school, everyone is discussing which university to apply for or whether to repeat the study, which somewhat dilutes the sadness of graduation. The only one who is sad is the head teacher, welcoming and sending them off. Another group of students have left the cruel high school campus to welcome a new future.

In fact, only graduating from college is the first parting in life. Train tickets, air tickets, empty dormitories, the last person to leave has to pat everyone on the shoulders, a meal without getting drunk or returning.It is said that Fang Chang will meet again in the future, and many people live in the same city but have not seen each other for several years.

These are all things to say, Li Jiaoyang has not experienced it yet, the sadness before his eyes is that Shen Yi is leaving.

In a foreign country, I don't know if there will be a chance to see you again in the future.

Life went on as usual. Shen Yi left Beijing that summer after the college entrance examination. The whole family went to the airport to see him off, and Li Jiaoyang also ran away.

"What else do you want to say?" Shen Yi asked Li Jiaoyang.All his bulky luggage was checked in, and he carried a small bag on his back. It didn't look like he was going to go abroad, but rather a trip to the next city.

"It's nothing, I just want to see you off at some point in the future." Li Jiaoyang forced a smile, "When you get there, you have to study hard and improve every day."

"En." Shen Yi nodded.

"Then you go." Li Jiaoyang urged him.

Shen Yi looked back at his own flight number on the big screen, and then at his family in the distance.He finally looked at Li Jiaoyang, as if he had summoned up so much courage in his heart, he opened his arms and hugged Li Jiaoyang.

Li Jiaoyang also hugged him, and said in a low voice: "After finishing my studies, I will come back and contribute to the modernization of the motherland." This is the ideology and morality they have memorized since they were young. return.

This time Shen Yi didn't answer him.

The two teenagers just embrace each other like this. In this noisy departure hall, people come and go, and there seems to be such a parting story behind everyone.

Years, decades.A turn around, a lifetime.

It was quite late for Shen Yi to finish making up lessons for Tang Xiaohui and Tong Yu. Li Jiaoyang had already finished his work, but he didn't leave, deliberately waiting for them to finish.

After an unknown number of yawns, Teacher Shen announced that get out of class was over.

Although the two children lived not far from the office, Li Jiaoyang sent them back first, and then sent Shen Yi home.

He never stopped yawning along the way, Shen Yi was afraid that Li Jiaoyang might fall asleep while driving.After arriving home, Shen Yi asked Li Jiaoyang: "If you are very sleepy, why don't you sleep here today?"

"Ah? Don't you really dislike me living in your house?" Li Jiaoyang joked while shedding tears, "Why did you suddenly change your gender recently? Fall in love with me?"

Shen Yi knocked hard on the roof of the car: "I'm afraid you will die on the road! Get lost!"
