It was the first time to go to the city, and Shao An took care to clean up the place where Shao Gan might go to school in the future.There are no decent clothes, because the height difference between the two brothers is not much different, so Shao Qian wears all the clothes that look good.Recently, Shao Gan was taller than him, so the clothes of both of them couldn't be said to fit.

The clothes are not good, but they must be clean.Shao An really couldn't pick out any clothes that would make his younger brother look good, so he had to take a bath and hair carefully at night to tidy himself up.I also deliberately found a pair of cloth shoes that had not been worn in the field, and the soles of the shoes still kept the yellow and white color of the coarse cloth.

The next day, He Weiye was really waiting at the township government early, and there was also a red-flag car that looked very imposing, and the five-star red flag hanging on the front mirror was also brand new.

Shao An and Shao Gan sat in the back seat cautiously. When the car started running, Shao An didn't enjoy it, but felt a little nauseous.The journey was very hard, and Shao An always wanted to vomit and kept holding back. When he waited for the car to stop four or ten minutes later, he had already endured to the limit, but he didn't know how to open the door.

Fortunately, the driver in front had been paying attention to him, got out of the car as soon as it stopped and opened the door for him.Shao An rushed out with a stride, and vomited heavily in the river ditch at the school gate.

He Weiye waited for him to slow down and led the two of them to walk in. After walking a short distance, he saw a slightly fat middle-aged man in the same snow-white short-sleeved shirt as He Weiye, black suit pants, and black leather shoes man.Seeing them, he waved enthusiastically, and walked up to hold He Weiye's hand in a few steps.

He Weiye turned his head and introduced to him, "These are Huaigu's two sons."

The man nodded again and again, patted Shao An's shoulder, then Shao Qian's shoulder, a little emotionally excited, "Very similar, really similar. He is as handsome as Huaigu when he was young."

Shao Gan lowered his head a little embarrassedly.The man patted Shao Qian vigorously again, and said hello: "When I received your call yesterday, I contacted the person in charge of the school. I will be there later, so let's do as I said before. Let's go, first Show the two brothers to see our city's No. [-] High School."

The man gushed, "Shao Gan, right? If you come here, you will definitely like it. Back then, your father said that if you can build a campus together, it must be full of lilacs. Unfortunately, he returned to his hometown later. But There is a lilac garden here, you must like it when you see it.”

While talking, a basketball flew over sideways, and Shao Gan subconsciously stood in front of Liang Jishan to catch it, because the speed was so high that his palms felt a little numb.Soon a clean white boy about 1.6 meters tall ran over, propped his knees in front of them and panted for a long time before beckoning and saying, "Uncle Liang, I'm sorry."

"It's okay." Liang Jishan smiled and took the ball from Shao Gan and passed it over, "Tong Tong, this is Shao Gan, and he might be your classmate."

The little boy looked very small, at least in Shao Gan's eyes, he was just a junior high school student.No, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was a fifth grade student.He was wearing a cool sports T-shirt and shorts, and white shoes and socks on his feet, which were very clean.

"What's your name?" The boy asked with a smile.

Shao Gan awkwardly rubbed his hands on his trouser legs, belatedly remembering that you don't need to shake hands when you meet your classmates.His first reaction was to notice how his clothes didn't match the sunny and handsome boy in front of him.Shao Gan felt ashamed for having such thoughts, and couldn't help blushing.

The boy giggled, raised his thin white arms to wipe the sweat off his forehead, followed them inside, looked back with his head, pointed at Shao An and said, "You two look alike, you must be two brothers."

Shao An was surprised, "Are you a child who goes to school here? Look at you."

"I'm not a doll, I'm also going to take the high school entrance exam this year." The boy wrinkled his nose and pouted.He said that he was not a doll, but he had a childish air.

Liang Jishan smiled, "He's young, but he's very smart. He skipped a grade in the middle, so he's only 13 this year?"

"It's already the [-]th birthday." The boy was not happy to be called small by others, so he slapped the ball in his hand angrily.

"Shao Gan's paintings are very good." Liang Jishan said.

"Do you also read specialty?"

"Not necessarily." Liang Jishan turned his head to look at Shao Qian, "It's very possible to take a special class, would you like it?"

Shao Gan nodded, he knew nothing about this.In fact, since stepping into this high school, I have been a little dizzy.In fact, being able to come in and study was something he didn't even dare to think about, so what else could he choose?

Shao Gan finally thought of a topic, turned his head and asked the boy, "What specialty do you study?"

"I know a lot. I can sing, dance, draw, and play the piano." The boy raised his head and laughed as he said it himself. Seeing Shao Gan's admiration, he winked at Shao Gan and whispered Said: "In fact, I don't have enough culture, so I came here because of the name of painting, but I'm not good at painting. My mother insists on making me review, but I don't want to. The third year of junior high school is very boring."

The boy looked down and saw the warped cloth shoes on his feet, and asked casually, "Why don't you wear sneakers?"

Shao Gan suddenly felt embarrassed again. He wanted to cover up the old cloth shoes with his trouser legs, but found that his trousers were so short. Standing in front of the foreign-style boys, he was very thorough.

Seeing his sudden embarrassment, the boy realized that he had asked a question that shouldn't be asked. He stuck out his tongue and changed the subject, "Cloth shoes are good. My mother said that cloth shoes are the most breathable and don't cover your feet. Would you like to go play some balls first?"

"Me?" Shao Qian raised his head and glanced at He Weiye quickly, "I have an exam later."

"Then I'll go play. If you don't know anything, come to the playground to find me. I'm familiar with it."

"En." Shao Gan nodded, "Thank you."

"Thank you, let's go."

The boy slapped the ball and ran away. Only then did Shao Gan feel the air flow again, and his fists on both sides were already wet with sweat.The boy named Tongtong suddenly appeared and then left, telling Shao Gan that there are many urbanites who are as foreign as the boys in this school, and he hopes that there will be someone who comes from the countryside like him and wears cloth shoes like him, which are washed white He even changed the color of his clothes so that he would not be too "outstanding" among such a group of energetic students.You know, it is not a comfortable thing to be paid attention to because of poverty.

Liang Jishan took them to look at the teaching building and dormitory building, brought Shao Gan to the relevant people of the school, and led He Weiye and the others to the office to wait.He has already discussed the details with He Weiye, as long as Shao Gan plays normally, there will be no problem.Shao An was worried, and finally decided to wait outside.Liang Jishan told him where to find them after the exam, and led He Weiye away.

It wasn't until Shao Gan entered the classroom where only he and a man and a woman were dressed in western style that he suddenly realized that he hadn't brought those two boxes of paints.What a low-level mistake, if the school requires painting watercolors?

Shao Gan said in a panic, "Teacher, I forgot to bring paints and brushes."

"It doesn't matter." The young female teacher said: "Don't be nervous, take the culture class first. The school has drawing tools, and only a few sketches are tested. Of course, you have works that you want to complete and can be completed in an afternoon. good."

Even though the female teacher said not to be nervous, Shao Gan still put his schoolbag aside, and took the test paper from her that could determine his fate with a pious attitude.Not only was he nervous, but Shao An outside was also nervous.The young and beautiful female teacher came out with a sheet of paper and asked him to help fill it out. Shao An sweated nervously, rubbed his hands and said, "I don't know how to write a lot of words." I learned to write with my father, but since I took up the burden of the family, I never touched a pen again.He is afraid of making mistakes.

The female teacher smiled, "Why don't I read it to you, and you say I'll help you write it."

"Hey, thank you."

Shao An strained his ears to listen, and he knew Shao Qian's school years by heart, so he answered without any hesitation.When it came to family members, Shao An just said: "Shao An, Shao Gan."

"Your father's name is Shao An?"

"No, my name is Shao An."

"Where's father?"

"already dead."

The female teacher looked up at him in embarrassment, thought for a while and asked, "Mother?"

Shao An lowered his eyebrows, "We are the only two brothers at home."

"Oh." The female teacher responded lightly, and then said with a smile: "There is also a column about political affiliation."

Shao An froze, looking at her a little nervously.

"Politics." The female teacher repeated.

"Then, what is that?"

"That is, what are the identities of the two of you?"

"Identity." Shao An murmured, pursing the corners of his mouth nervously, and it took him a long time to come up with a tactful answer. He said: "Our family is a rich peasant, but my father and grandfather are. They are dead. My brother and I love socialism very much.”

The female teacher burst out laughing, showing her clean and neat teeth.Shao An's face flushed instantly.

"You're so funny." The female teacher suppressed a smile. "The talk of poor peasants and rich peasants is no longer popular. Are you a party member? Or the masses?"

"Well, the masses, I am the masses."

At noon, He Weiye brought the shredded pork noodles they ate in a restaurant outside the school. Shao An insisted on paying for it, and spent more than two yuan.

He Weiye was going back to Changping Township after dinner, and told them to go to the bus station to take a bus to the village after the exam.The bicycles of the two people happened to be placed in the township government, and they just happened to ride away.

It was still the same classroom in the afternoon, with the male teacher invigilating the exam and the female teacher strolling outside, Shao An still stood quietly waiting for Shao Gan outside.

The female teacher is Sun Min, an out-and-out city resident.A shy man like Shao An and Shao Gan is new to her. The most indispensable thing in the city is a man who thinks he can't help talking nonsense when he sees a girl in fashionable clothes.What's more, Shao An's skin is different from the whiteness of the people in the city, it is a healthy dark wheat color.Sun Min has seen some foreign language magazines, some of the models have this kind of skin color, they call it a healthy skin color.

After years of hard work, Shao An has some muscles all over his body, which looks very pleasing to the eye.Naturally, Sun Min would not have any thoughts because of his advantages, but just pay more attention to his quietness.

Shao Ganjiao's painting is quite satisfactory, and he drew a still life sketch according to the requirements.The male teacher is engaged in art, and it can be seen that he seems not very satisfied with this work.

Shao Gan looked at him nervously for a moment, seeing that he didn't intend to say anything, he put on his schoolbag and went out nervously.Sun Min bid farewell to the two, telling them that they could go home and wait for the news, and the results would come out before school started at the latest.

When the two brothers were walking out, they heard the male teacher named Gao Chen say: "Looking at the brushwork, you know that you have not studied systematically, and writing is the opposite of normal painting. Who would be so strange, start painting from the center first? Can the painting be finished?" It’s just a miracle.”

"What's the matter? Which one of you in history didn't learn it by yourself? Instead, you were taught by teachers like you in school. It's hard to become a master without your hands and feet."

Shao An dragged Shao Gan downstairs before asking in a low voice, "How is it?"

Shao Gan rubbed the lead in his hands, "I did well in the culture test, and I have almost finished it." What is done is usually correct.Shao Gan has a problem, he can't write the questions he doesn't know easily.Although this bad habit was criticized more than once by the teacher and head teacher, he still couldn't change it.Shao Gan said that he really didn't want to make up some random things to make the teacher look at a bunch of messy things.Unless there is some confidence in this question, the written part will definitely score, and then it will be written up.

Think of it as a way for poor kids to keep their pride.
