Chapter 10, I want to go to college
On the way to the takeaway station, Shen Qiushan received a call from Xu Decai, saying that the loan application was approved and asked him to go to the school tomorrow to handle the formalities.
This result was within Shen Qiushan's expectations. Sanjiang Senior High School was a municipal key high school, ranking slightly above the middle among the nearly 100 high schools in Sanjiang City. Neither its management nor its student source could be compared with those top high schools.
Therefore, it should not be a problem for Chen Qiushan to use his red envelope to get a place for a borrowed student.
The result is indeed true. The 38-year-old Shen Qiushan will be able to return to the high school campus after 20 years tomorrow!
Thinking of this, I feel a lot of emotion.
It is said that time cannot be reversed and life cannot be repeated.
For Shen Qiushan, returning to high school is actually a chance to relive his youth.
Thoughts drifting.
Shen Qiushan has arrived at the door of the takeaway station.
"Brother Shan, Lao Zhang has been looking for you for a long time."
"Old Shen, what's wrong with you? Why are you still out of touch?"
The two riders who were half-leaning on their electric bikes to rest spoke up after seeing Shen Qiushan.
"Something happened at home, so I need to rest for a while."
Shen Qiushan responded as he strode into the takeaway station.
At this moment, several deliverymen were chatting while changing the batteries of their electric bikes, and one of them said, "MD, business is really hard to do now. I went to a beauty salon to deliver food this afternoon, and a girl actually asked me if I wanted to apply for a membership card. I don't know what she was thinking!"
"Haha, does that little girl like you?"
"Tsk tsk, if she sleeps with me for a few days, I might actually consider it. She looks pretty flirty."
"How many more days of sleep? Then your hard work for the past month will not be in vain."
If he had heard this kind of chat in the past, Shen Qiushan would have had to respond, but now he couldn't help but think of Luo Meimei's agile techniques.
"Old Shen, you're finally back!"
"What's going on? The complaint phone is about to explode!"
At this time, Zhang Qiang, the station manager of the takeaway station, came out of the inner office holding a large teacup. He happened to see Shen Qiushan and immediately started to complain.
"Something happened to my child at school, so I went to school temporarily."
Shen Qiushan explained briefly.
"How come we lost contact? Customers didn't receive their meals, and we received complaints all the way to the headquarters."
“I explained it to people for a long time.”
The webmaster Zhang Qiang has a pretty good relationship with Shen Qiushan, and when the higher-ups called to inquire, he did say a lot of good things.
"It's okay, just deduct the money from my salary."
"Also, Brother Qiang, I'm not going to do this job for now. I'm going to take a break for a while."
Shen Qiushan returned to the station because he had a good relationship with Zhang Qiang and had to say hello in person.
"ah?"
"You're not going to do this anymore?"
Zhang Qiang was startled and frowned, "What's going on? What happened at home? Do you need help?"
"Need not."
Shen Qiushan waved his hand: "I just want to change my way of life. I'll treat you guys to a drink when I have time!"
"Are you really alright?"
"If you have any problem, just tell me, brother, I will help you if I can!"
Zhang Qiang felt that Shen Qiushan had his own unspeakable secrets, otherwise he would not have resigned so suddenly. After all, he had two high school children to support at home.
"Brother Qiang, you really can't help with this."
Shen Qiushan came close to Zhang Qiang, put his arm around his shoulders and whispered, “I’m going to take the college entrance exam.”
"What the hell?"
“You want to go to college???”
Zhang Qiang exclaimed, his eyes widened.
When he shouted like that, the delivery men nearby who were chatting with the girl also looked at him in surprise.
"Brother Shan, are you going to take the college entrance exam?"
"Old Shen, you don't have a fever, do you?"
“Isn’t your child taking the college entrance exam this year?”
Several delivery men were all confused.
Shen Qiushan had originally only intended to tell Zhang Qiang, after all, he cared more about himself, but in the end, everyone in the station knew about it.
However, Shen Qiushan did not explain anything, but said with a smile: "When the graduation banquet is held, everyone will go!"
"I'm leaving first. I still have to review!"
Before anyone could react, Shen Qiushan quickly slipped away.
However, after he left, the takeaway station was in an uproar.
"Is Old Shen crazy?"
"I don't think anyone would go to college at such an old age!"
"Brother Shan is in his forties this year?"
"38, two years older than me!"
"Entering college at 38? What was Shan thinking?"
"Haven't you seen him reading a whole book every day recently? I think he's serious about this!"
"Whether he is genuine or not, applying for university at the age of 38 is like tying a rope to a chicken's butt. It's bullshit!"
“.”
Everyone was talking about it, and soon the news that Shen Qiushan was going to take the college entrance examination spread among the deliverymen's circle.
After all, this is too unbelievable.
The other side.
After leaving the takeaway station, Shen Qiushan went to the fresh food supermarket to buy some fruits and vegetables, and then rode his electric bike home.
He lives in "Wangjiangyuan" in Sanjiang New City.
It is called a new town, but in fact it is a large suburb in the past. Since it is far away from the main urban area, the housing prices are relatively cheap.
A few years ago, Shen Qiushan bought a 125-square-meter three-bedroom apartment with a loan, but his father lived with him. Three rooms were not enough for a family of four, so he divided the living room and made a small room that could only accommodate a bed, where he lived.
Of the remaining three rooms, daughter Shen Yanran lives in the master bedroom with an independent bathroom, son Shen Yixiao lives in the second bedroom, and father lives in the south-facing guest bedroom.
After charging the electric bike in the carport downstairs, Shen Qiushan carried the vegetables and fruits upstairs. However, he did not go directly back to his home on the 20th floor, but took the elevator to his sister's home on the 19th floor.
In recent years, because Chen Qiushan was busy making money to support the family, the two children and the old man often ate at his sister's house, so Chen Qiushan usually bought groceries and delivered them directly to his sister's house.
"Brother, why are you here so early today?"
Shen Dehua opened the door when he heard the knock on the door. When he saw it was his brother, he was a little confused.
It's a little after five o'clock, which is when the delivery business is busiest.
"Oh, you're done?"
"Fish and ribs!"
Shen Dehua saw the big fish and meat in Shen Qiushan's hand again, and couldn't help but exclaimed.
"My two kids are preparing for the college entrance exams, and Little Potato is also growing up, so he needs to keep up with the nutrition."
Shen Qiushan said as he handed the dishes to his sister, and then he found that his father was sitting on the sofa in the living room looking at his phone.
"Dad, you're here too."
Shen Qiushan called out, but received no response.
Obviously, old Shen's attention was on the phone. Shen Qiushan changed his slippers, then moved closer to his father and looked at the phone screen curiously.
I saw a female anchor twisting her body hard to the sound of seductive music. Her long white legs and big white rabbits that were about to pop out were particularly eye-catching.
Old Shen was so fascinated by the show that the corners of his mouth were almost stretched to his ears.
The dry fingers were still poking the screen frantically under the command of the female anchor.
