Chapter 187 Pickup
On the afternoon after the English exam, everyone packed their luggage and gathered at the entrance of the guesthouse, ready to return.
Just like when we came here, the cars were arranged by the school.
It was past four when we set out, and it was already half past six when we got back to town.
When the car stopped outside the school gate, parents who came to pick up the car rushed up instantly.
Have you had a smooth few days? Have there been any unexpected events? How did you do on the exam?
It can be seen that many parents are more anxious about this pre-examination than the students.
After three days of exams, everyone had already let go of their burdens, but when they were asked about this, some people felt uneasy and even had tears in their eyes.
Some people have a rough idea of whether they did well in the exam. After all, the preliminary exam is a hurdle and it is not easy to overcome it.
This time, out of the five classes, nearly two hundred people took the preliminary exam, excluding those who gave up before the test. Based on last year's ratio, it would be great if one third of them could pass.
In other words, out of five classes, only a few dozen people can take the college entrance examination.
When Meng Shulan got off the bus, Meng Changli and He Jinqiu also squeezed over to help her carry her things.
Neither of them asked her how she did in the exam. They only asked if she was tired and hungry. They told her to go back quickly because the meal was ready and she could eat when she got home.
Meng Shulan responded with a smile, looking around over the crowd.
Meng Changli made a "tsk" sound, gently bumped her sister, and winked at her, "Why, it's only been three days, and you're thinking about it already?"
My sister must be looking for Gu Hansong, how could she not know that?
Meng Shulan blushed, "Sister, didn't he come?"
It's only three days. It's not that I miss him, but I just feel that during these important moments, I hope he can be by my side, just like a family member.
Meng Changli: "Why didn't you come? I was outside and was stopped by those people in the town."
Secretary Tang also came to pick up the car this time, and it looks like he will have to give a speech soon.
In this day and age, everything related to college entrance exams is a big deal.
During the previous preliminary examination, the county magistrate even inspected the examination venue every day.
Firstly, it is to inspect the work, and secondly, it is to encourage students to be positive and take it seriously.
If more college students are produced, the county will be praised, and the town and the school will benefit.
So the treatment for picking up the car was the same as that for seeing off the person, and the leaders of the town were all there.
Everybody got off the bus. As it was getting late and it was getting dark, the school did not ask everyone to gather in the playground or anything. The principal just spoke directly outside the school gate with a loudspeaker.
Those old sayings are always true: you can't relax until the results come out. Even if you don't pass the exam, learning a little more knowledge can benefit you for life.
After the principal finished speaking, the secretary spoke again, and then the class teachers of each class explained the upcoming holiday arrangements to everyone.
That’s right, everyone had a holiday before the results came out.
A week later, the school will post a big-character poster and ask those whose names are on it to return to school, and those who fail do not need to come again.
Even if you want to repeat a year, it will be next semester.
Meng Shulan stood in the crowd and listened attentively.
Although she had experienced this in her previous life, she still felt a little emotional when she returned to this moment again.
In this era, there are few opportunities to change your destiny, and the college entrance examination is a dividing line.
At this moment, some people took a crucial step, while others followed the old path of their fathers and would never be able to leave that small mountain village in their entire lives.
After the speech, the group dispersed on the spot and everyone went home directly with their bags.
Meng Shulan went to her family's place. Gu Hansong was there too, holding her big schoolbag in his hand and smiling.
Meng Shulan glanced at him and thought that this guy was quite capable and knew how to carry things.
The whole family was there, and Gu Hansong didn't say anything, but just asked if everything was going well.
Meng Shulan: “Not bad.”
Perform normally.
That's good.
After they chatted for a while, Hu Bifang and Zhou Yan came over.
Zhou Yan had just gotten off work and was just about to pick up Hu Bifang to go home with, so he came over to say hello.
This time, Hu Bifang felt that she had done well in the exam and was very happy.
She also made a special trip to talk to Gu Hansong. Because of his teaching in the first half of the month, Hu Bifang felt that the English test was pretty good and she was confident about most of the questions.
Gu Hansong just smiled faintly and nodded, looking mysterious.
Hu Bifang knew that this was his personality and didn't care. She was just particularly happy for Meng Shulan.
Previously, everyone was saying that Meng Shulan had found a villager, but she was not convinced. So what if he was a villager? As long as he was a good person and she liked him, there was nothing wrong with that.
At that time, she had never met Gu Hansong and thought that this man was similar to her fiancé Zhou Yan.
Unexpectedly, he came to the school to be a teacher.
Oh my god, it turns out there are some top-notch and geniuses among the villagers.
His height, appearance, knowledge and achievements are simply incomparable to those of ordinary college students.
Hu Bifang was relieved now. Seeing the envious eyes of everyone in school, she felt very happy.
Of course, in addition to feeling happy, I was also very grateful because everyone’s English level has improved thanks to Gu Hansong’s appearance.
Hu Bifang had just thanked Gu Hansong when some more students came up to thank Gu Hansong. Regardless of whether they passed the preliminary exam or not, they had really caught up in the English course at the last critical moment. Although the score was not high, it increased their chances of passing the exam.
Someone started this, and the students around started rushing over here.
Gu Hansong was surrounded by a group of students, and even Meng Shulan was pushed aside.
Meng Shulan was also helpless, so she told her family that they should go first and she would wait here. Her two nieces were also there. The two little ones were being squeezed around in the crowd and looked a little confused.
Meng Changli didn't say anything. He Jinqiu said, "They came together. How can we leave first? Besides, everyone wants to thank him. It's a good thing. Let's just watch the fun."
Meng Shulan: “…”
Why do I feel like Gu Hansong is being protected?
Since He Jinqiu had spoken, the few people naturally could not leave and all stood by the roadside waiting.
It was at this time that Meng Shulan heard Ye Ran's voice, which was not far behind her. She sounded unpleasant-toned and seemed to be angry with someone.
Meng Shulan turned her head and looked over, just in time to see Ye Pingshun glaring at Ye Ran.
The Ye family still runs a shop in the town, so when Ye Ran returns from the preparatory exam this time, her family will definitely come to pick her up.
Quite a lot of people came, except Ye Feng, all the family members were there.
Ye Pingshun asked his daughter how the pre-test went and whether she was confident. Ye Ran rolled her eyes and said that the results had not come out yet, so how could she know!
When Ye Pingshun heard this, he knew that the situation was threatening and his face turned very unhappy.
The two were about to start a quarrel, but were stopped by Ye's mother Xie Hongyun, who winked at them.
The father and daughter turned their heads to look and saw Gu Hansong and the Meng family members who were surrounded.
This is really a case of enemies meeting in a narrow road. I had deliberately made room far away, but who would have thought that a bunch of nosy students would push people over here.
Seeing the Meng family, the Ye family father and daughter shut up silently and stopped arguing.
What are you arguing about?
I can’t compete in business, which has already made people laugh at me enough. Now I can’t compete in studies either. It will be a joke if I tell others about it.
