MTL - He is From Great Sea of Stars-Chapter 8 1970s sisters
Spring and autumn come, and time flies.
In the blink of an eye, Huo Xingchao was eighteen years old.
In 1978, he was in his third year of high school this year.
Since the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination, the atmosphere of their entire high school has changed.
Huo Xingchao keenly noticed that the eyes of many of the classmates instantly glowed.
Even the most condescending ones began to study all night under the atmosphere.
They thought, no matter what, they are serious high school students, in case they will be admitted!
The same is true for the school. In the third year of high school, three mock exams were organized.
It seems that all the teachers and classmates, including the school leaders, are caught up in this sudden reform and change.
A burst of chaos.
In fact, not only the high school students, but also the influence of the resumption of the college entrance examination, also includes many educated young people who have been sent to the countryside either for ideals or due to regulations.
Huo Chenyang asked someone to bring news that he would also take the college entrance examination this year.
The news came from Grandma Jiang who came to the city.
After she finished speaking, she paused, and after a long time, she asked Mother Huo a little embarrassedly if she could help me get some more malted milk essence.
......
Because the third daughter-in-law of the Jiang family is pregnant again, this time they gave birth to a pair of twin sons.
But Grandma Jiang was so upset that she wanted to bring some nutritional supplements to her daughter-in-law, so that she would have more milk.
Before, she didn't have to ask for it at all, because Mother Huo gave He Nian a lot of malted milk essence.
But now...
After all these years, since Huo Xingchao went to Shaping Village last time, Mother Huo finally realized that she really trusts this kind and smiling old lady too much.
Although people are not necessarily the bad people who commit crimes, but people live in the world, who has selfishness?
He Nian and He Yi are such an old child, and Mother Huo dare not take such selfish risks.
Fortunately, He Nian also entered junior high school.
There is no junior high school in Shaping Village. She attends the school in the town, which is also close to the county.
Huo's mother often sent things directly to her school. He Nian lived in the school in junior high school, and he didn't need Jiang's family for food and lodging. Even if he returned to the village on weekends, he lived in the house left by his parents.
As for He Yi's food expenses, she calculated the amount, and would give a little more every week, and then give some extra money as compensation for their help.
As for the extra, she didn't care whether it really went into her brother's mouth or was eaten by the Jiang family.
Although He Yi is physically weak, he is actually a lively and bold child.
Grandma Jiang, brothers, sisters, brothers and sisters of the Jiang family, whether he bullied him, and whether he usually had enough to eat, every time he waited for his sister to come home from school, he would chirp and learn to listen to her.
At least for now, the Jiang family has not treated him badly, and even took good care of him.
The blow He Nian received back then finally calmed down a bit.
But......
"He Xiaonian, don't think that you owe them. You gave money and borrowed the house! It's like paying He Yi to hire a nanny, you know?"
When Huo Xingchao wrote a letter to He Nian, he was afraid that a little girl of hers would be bewitched again.
He's used to talking.
Before the last exam at the end of the term, He Nian went to see Grandpa Huo in the county town, and was left by Mother Huo for lunch. When he left, Huo Xingchao took her to the intersection.
He Nian is very grateful to the Huo family.
Whether it's Grandpa Huo, Uncle Huo, Aunt Huo, or even Huo Xingchao, they are all kind to her from the bottom of their hearts.
So before she got into the car, she looked at the large and small bags of food and fabric supplies that were forced into her hands, thinking that the Huo family had been supporting her and her brother to grow up for so many years.
The usual necessities of life, paper and pencil expenses for school.
Everything was considered.
She bowed sincerely to Huo Xing.
"Brother Huo, thank you very much. Thank you for taking care of me and He Yi over the years. When I grow up, I will definitely repay you."
Huo Xingchao turned sideways to avoid the bow.
He raised his eyebrows, pulled the little girl by the collar and carried her to the side of the road,
Then sighed and approached her mysteriously,
"He Xiaonian, you don't understand. Actually, we should thank you."
He Nian blinked suspiciously.
"Why are you so stupid."
The boy looked disgusted, "Didn't I tell you that it was your grandfather who saved my grandfather's life."
"You think, if your grandfather hadn't rescued my grandfather, my dad would have no father, without him, my dad wouldn't be able to become a fourth-level worker, if he couldn't become a fourth-level worker, he wouldn't be able to marry my mother. If he couldn't marry my mother , there is no Huo Chenyang with me."
He raised his eyebrows,
"Look, if your grandfather hadn't sacrificed his life to save us, our whole family would have been doomed."
"But your grandfather and your parents only left you two little brats, He Xiaonian, you said to yourself, can we just thank you?"
......
When there is no space in the middle of a paragraph, one sentence after another, it sounds very logical at first glance.
The little girl stood there blankly, unable to refute the truth for a long time, racking her brains, and finally came up with a sentence,
"But, but how can you say that..."
"Why can't you say that."
He raised his eyebrows and pulled her to the ox cart, "I said you are a child, and you are not smart enough to think so much all day."
"You can just follow the smart people, or I will hurt myself."
"Okay, go home quickly, it will be dark if you don't go, I tell you He Xiaonian, you should stop thinking about it by yourself, and read more when you have time. Children think too much and easily grow gray hair, don't you know!"
.....
He Nian was pushed into the bullock cart by him, and looked at the young man's serious and somewhat intimidating look, stunned, and finally laughed.
She waved at him.
"I remember, Brother Huo, goodbye."
Huo Xing put his hands in his pockets, responded with a sound, and waved his hands dashingly.
The cow flicked its tail, and the wheel slowly rolled forward.
......
Ever since Huo Xingchao sent He Nian letter paper for the first time, they have been writing and communicating.
With the starlight value displayed by the sensor star, it has gone from zero percent at the beginning to forty percent now.
He Nian's pen words, from the very beginning, were soft and intangible, and now they are more and more similar to Huo Xingchao.
She is obviously a good-natured little girl, but her words are unrestrained and unrestrained, just like the second Huo Xingchao.
If someone who is not familiar with them sees their letters, one is overbearing and one is soft-tempered.
- But the almost identical glyphs are like a large-scale fine-grained scene.
Strange to say.
It was obvious that He Nian's fiancé was Huo Chenyang, but in the past few years, she became closer to Huo Xingchao.
Every time I see Huo Chenyang's fiancé, he is very polite, even hiding if he can.
And Huo Chenyang, he didn't care either.
Because there is always a small tail behind him.
She has a bright smile and is full of vigor - Jiang Xiaxia, who is optimistic and cheerful like a little sun.
......
Except for the two of them, no one knows the correspondence between Huo Xingchao and He Nian.
But the closeness of Huo Chenyang and Jiang Xiaxia can be seen by everyone in the same village. Especially Grandma Jiang, her heart is clear.
She knew that if things went on like this, something would happen one day.
But she said to herself.
The present era pays attention to free love and opposes feudal dross. This is what the chairman said.
She cannot and should not stop young people from feeling free.
— she persuaded herself.
But the real reason is actually hidden in a corner of her heart that even she herself is unwilling to turn.
Over the years.
Then develop more and more desires.
......
Between Huo Chenyang and Jiang Xiaxia, something really happened.
Just after the high school entrance examination this summer.
Huo Chenyang went to the countryside in his early years, and his grades were not particularly outstanding, and he did not have much contact with textbooks for so many years.
After cramming for a while, he finally fell out of the rankings.
On the other hand, Huo Xingchao has been doing well since the second year of junior high.
This year is the second year of the resumption of the college entrance examination. As soon as he participated, he was admitted to the provincial champion. It has now been confirmed that he has been admitted to Beijing University.
Huo's father and Huo's mother are happy and proud of the younger son on the one hand, but afraid of hurting the heart of the eldest son,
So in the end, I invited my acquaintances and neighbors in a low-key manner, and set up a table at home, even if it was a celebration.
Huo Chenyang returned to the city after the college entrance examination.
Although he was in a low mood because he was not on the list, he was still happy for his younger brother who was admitted to the best university in the country.
In order not to spoil everyone's happiness, he tried his best to smile.
Toast to Huo Xingchao,
"Come on, Xingchao, I respect you, I wish you good luck in your studies in the future."
Huo Xingchao touched him a cup and comforted him,
"Brother, don't think too much. If you have experience this year, you will be admitted next year."
Huo Chenyang smiled and was silent for a long time before saying,
"I don't plan to take the college entrance examination in the future."
......
"My score this time is actually not small, and I'm not like Xingchao you, I have no talent for reading since I was a child. I think, after this year, I'll find a job, so that I can support my family early."
Mother Huo frowned, "The family is very good. Your dad and I are still working hard, so we need you to support us wherever we go."
"..."
Huo Chenyang moved his lips.
He seemed to want to say something, but finally stopped.
"How about this."
The guests had already left by now, and Father Huo sipped a small glass of wine.
After thinking for a while, I made a decision,
"Old Yang from my workshop just retired. The child is going to college this year."
"Tomorrow, let's bring a gift and ask him if he can leave the vacant seat for you. Lao Yang has a good relationship with me. I think he should be able to agree."
Mother Huo nodded in agreement,
"That's fine. It just so happened that Xiujuan brought two bottles of wine. You can bring them over tomorrow."
......
As Father Huo said, Lao Yang readily agreed.
He and Huo Zhonggang had worked together for most of their lives and had a good relationship.
In addition to having a child at an old age, the husband and wife are too spoiled, and the only son is spoiled. Later, he gradually played with Huo Xingchao, and now he was admitted to university.
The couple agreed to this love, and after hearing that Lao Huo wanted to find a workshop position for his eldest son, they agreed without waiting for him to say a few words.
But just when everything had stabilized, Huo Xingchao's luggage to the capital was well packed, and he was just waiting for the train the day after tomorrow.
Huo Chenyang had an accident.
He made Grandpa Huo angry with a high blood pressure attack.
When Father Huo received the news, he was already in the hospital.
He received a call in the workshop, his face was gloomy, he hurried home, picked up a rolling pin and walked out, startling Huo Xingchao.
"Dad, what are you doing?"
Huo's father was aggressive, with a strong voice and deep anger,
"I'm going to kill that pervert!"
"..."
Huo Xingchao stuffed the zongzi in his mouth and quickly followed,
"Dad, Dad, don't be impulsive, you maimed my brother, and you still have to pay for the medical expenses!"
