Chapter 1 We are different people
“Boom boom boom!”
A burst of rapid knocking sounds woke Cheng Xuyuan from his sleep.
But he didn't want to open his eyes.
He wanted to continue sleeping a little longer in his sweet dream.
At least, in dreams, there won’t be so many disappointments. For example, no matter how hard you work, you are not as good as those flatterers who can catch a chance to get a promotion and then enjoy a smooth and happy life.
At least, in dreams, there won’t be so many intrigues and schemes. For example, even if you study hard for many years, you can’t be as good as those villains who jump up and down and open their mouths and easily occupy your work and steal your achievements.
There will be no...
"Why should I be content with poverty?"
"Why can't I come up with a penny when my family is in trouble..."
"Why can't I turn evil?"
…
“Boom boom boom…”
The knocking sound became clearer, and Cheng Xuyuan finally opened his eyes.
"Examinee, even if you don't know how to do it, you can't sleep in the examination room!"
“This is the college entrance examination!”
"You know how much effort we have put in for this exam. You must cherish this rare opportunity!"
The person who spoke was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties. He was wearing a gray Mao suit with a pen tucked into his left pocket.
The middle-aged man's Mao suit looked very formal, but the two patches on the sleeves seemed to be winking at Cheng Xuyuan.
This kind of dress seems to have only been seen in TV dramas...
I guess this hallucination happened because I drank too much yesterday.
Just when Cheng Xuyuan was stunned, he heard the middle-aged man say: "Everyone must seize this rare opportunity to take the college entrance examination, carefully read the questions, and answer them seriously..."
Only then did Cheng Xuyuan have time to look around. He was surprised to find that there were many young people around him, wearing gray or blue clothes, writing furiously on simple tables and chairs.
There were also a few people wearing old-fashioned khaki military uniforms. It couldn't be said that they were all young people. To his left, the man writing quickly had a bald head.
I'm already 40 years old, and I'm taking the college entrance examination? Is this the college entrance examination? Am I taking the college entrance examination again in my dream...
Composition: An unforgettable day! The first question is composition. This is really the college entrance examination in my dreams...
Question 2: Explain the words:
Slander, hesitation, brazenness...
Cheng Xuyuan was a little speechless when he saw these questions. He immediately looked at the top of the paper and saw the words written on the top: 1977...
Dreaming about taking the college entrance examination in 1977, this dream is really creative! Just when Cheng Xuyuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, the rustling sound of writing papers around him made Cheng Xuyuan feel that everything was so real.
Especially the lame desk in front of me, which was not painted at all and had been carved with thousands of grooves by some naughty student with a knife. It would shake whenever I moved...
Also, the long bench that hurts my butt...
Am I really here to take the college entrance examination? Cheng Xuyuan pinched his thigh subconsciously, trying to wake himself up from his sleep.
However, as he pinched his fingers, countless thoughts suddenly appeared in his mind.
Slowly digesting these thoughts, Cheng Xuyuan was finally sure of one thing: he was not dreaming, but traveling through time! He traveled through time to 1977, to the body of a 21-year-old boy named Cheng Xuyuan.
This young man graduated from junior high school at the age of fifteen and worked as a plumber in Chengjiazhuang Brigade of Liguotun Commune for six years.
In theory, the resumption of the college entrance examination had nothing to do with him.
After all, he had basically been messing around from elementary school to junior high school...
However, for the sake of his wife who was about to return to the city, he signed up without hesitation and studied hard for a month...
After looking at the test paper, he found that he knew almost none of the questions, so he fell asleep in disappointment after not sleeping well the night before...
Then, I became myself with the same name and surname!
You have to take it seriously, otherwise, I'm afraid I can only rush back home to repair the earth like the master! Thinking of the memories of 1977 in his previous life, Cheng Xuyuan's expression suddenly became solemn.
He immediately glanced at the test questions and started writing immediately after picking up his pen.
Defamation: making something up out of nothing, saying bad things about others, and ruining their reputation.
hesitate……
Cheng Xuyuan wrote very quickly and finished half a page in just a few minutes.
The teacher in charge looked at Cheng Xuyuan, who was writing quickly, and shook his head gently. Although the young man filled up the entire paper after being reminded by him, the possibility of him passing the exam was basically zero.
After all, half of the exam time has passed!
Also, he was just writing nonsense at this time!
After finishing writing an 800-word composition, Cheng Xuyuan rubbed his sore wrist, and then he discovered that on his hand was a Yellow River watch with a worn-out watch cover!
This watch was borrowed from my second uncle who is the village accountant because he is going to take the college entrance examination.
There are still ten minutes left before the end of the exam! After carefully reading the test questions, Cheng Xuyuan began to look through his memory.
In this master's memory, the person he remembers most vividly is his wife, Shen Yumo, a female educated youth from Yanjing.
Shen Yumo came to Chengjiazhuang Brigade five years ago. At that time, Shen Yumo looked different from the people around him. His eyes were black and white, clear and bright. However, no matter who he met, he always looked cold.
It was this bean sprout-like girl that made me fall in love with her at first sight.
He felt that Shen Yumo had a rare kind of peaceful and quiet beauty. That kind of beauty was like the lilac blossoming in the deep mountains and old forests, silent, light, elegant and reserved, without the slightest vulgarity or exaggeration. She wore ordinary clothes, without any makeup or decorations on her body, but she looked clean, refreshing, simple and generous.
Although the master seemed calm on the surface, undercurrents were already surging in his heart, so he began to pursue various things.
It's all in vain, the dog licks the dog, and in the end, there is nothing left.
A year ago, when Shen Yumo suddenly said that she wanted to marry me, my heart was filled with ecstasy.
But Shen Yumo's words poured cold water on me.
Three years of not sleeping in the same bed! They say it's to cultivate feelings, but in fact, they just don't want to sleep with me.
When Shen Yumo stated this condition, she said it very calmly. She told the host that if he agreed, they would get married, but if he didn't agree, then forget it.
Therefore, the infatuated owner actually agreed to this condition.
After getting married, I slowly realized that Shen Yumo married me just to use me as a cover. Her purpose was just to avoid the entanglement of a powerful married man in the commune...
The reason why I was chosen is not only because I am deeply in love with her, but also because my family has a large number of people and strong influence in the village.
My grandfather has five brothers, among whom my second grandfather is the head of the brigade.
By the time of my father's generation, there were even more people. My father had fourteen or fifteen cousins alone, not to mention the brothers within the five generations of mourning.
Especially my third uncle, who is currently working in the county and holds a very popular position.
The married owner thought that even if Shen Yumo was a piece of stone, he would be able to warm her up by holding her in his arms for a few years!
Unfortunately, after just over a year, he received a piece of mixed news: his nominal father-in-law had his job benefits restored.
Shen Yumo is going back to Beijing and his work has been arranged!
When Shen Yumo told me this news, I was really shocked. Although I was infatuated, I was not stupid. I knew that this person who had never slept in the same bed with me would never come back.
He is unwilling to accept it!
But what can I do no matter how unwilling I am!
After all, he was just a peasant in Chengjiazhuang Brigade and couldn't go to the city at all! Just when he was in a state of panic, the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination came.
As if he had grabbed the last straw, he signed up for the college entrance examination. However, to the whole village, this application was simply wishful thinking.
How could he pass the exam? While I was studying frantically, Shen Yumo, who also took the exam, told me that she had asked her father to find him a job in Yanjing.
After the college entrance examination, we can go to work together in Yanjing.
However, after arriving in Yanjing, the two of them had to live their own lives.
That being said, even if I fail to get into college, I don’t have to continue carrying a hoe to repair the earth.
While he was laughing at himself, the words spoken by Shen Yumo and the master appeared in his mind.
Shen Yumo said that the host was a good person, but what she was pursuing was a kind of spiritual connection.
Two people are not the same person, just like two parallel lines, how could there be a day when they will intersect?
When the family learned the news, although the mother felt that Shen Yumo was taking advantage of her son and the feeling of being deceived was very annoying, the second grandfather, who was the head of the brigade, felt that Shen Yumo was quite righteous.
After all, at that time, changing from an agricultural to a non-agricultural status was the dream of all rural young people! But this dream was difficult to achieve.
When Shen Yumo married me, she said that she would spend three years to develop our relationship, and if it didn't work out, she would divorce me.
The master also agreed.
Now before leaving, he has found a job for me and can also move my household registration back to Yanjing. This is already enough of a repayment.
People should be content! Thinking about the second uncle's words and Shen Yumo's usual cold attitude, Cheng Xuyuan felt that what the second uncle said made sense.
After all, a forced melon is not sweet! Although Shen Yumo is as beautiful as a flower, she doesn't like you and doesn't want to live with you. If you insist on it, it will only make both of you more uncomfortable.
Didn’t a big shot once say that if you keep a woman who has changed her mind, she will become your enemy!
It's better to part ways in peace. Besides, he is not ruthless. He even arranged a job for me and got me a residence permit in Yanjing...
I worked in Yanjing for seven or eight years as a 996 and 007 worker, but I still couldn't get a Yanjing household registration.
In marriage, there is no right or wrong.
“Dang, dang, dang…”
Following the sound of metal knocking, the teacher in a Mao suit said in a deep voice: "The test is over, all candidates please stop answering..."
Cheng Xuyuan regained his composure, glanced at the name on the test paper, and followed the candidates in the front row to hand in their papers.
Just as he was thinking about what to do next, someone patted him on the shoulder and said, "Dayuan, you are the only one who slept in the college entrance examination room!"
"But your beautiful wife is really gone this time!"
Cheng Xuyuan looked at the thin young man behind him and quickly flipped through the information about this person in his memory.
Chen Jiang, an educated youth from Chengjiazhuang Brigade, is one of Shen Yumo's secret admirers.
He likes to show off everywhere so that people will think he is superior to others.
Although the master didn't like Chen Jiang, he didn't want to pay attention to him. But Cheng Xuyuan, who had decided to turn evil when he was drunk in his previous life, didn't want to spoil him like this.
"Chen Jiang, you have to study hard. As long as you can get into college, no one will know that you were stripped of your pants by those aunties in our village."
Cheng Xuyuan's voice was not low! Coupled with Chen Jiang's words just now, many people have paid attention to Cheng Xuyuan and Chen Jiang.
At this time, Cheng Xuyuan's ridicule successfully attracted everyone's attention, and some people even burst out laughing.
Chen Jiang's face suddenly turned red!
This was the greatest humiliation in his memory, and it also caused him to inexplicably lose the right to choose his spouse in recent years.
I originally thought that no one in the college entrance examination hall knew about this.
This damn Cheng Xuyuan actually said it to me so unscrupulously.
How dare he do this? As Chen Jiang's expression kept changing, Cheng Xuyuan had already stepped out of the classroom built of red bricks.
The playground outside the classroom was filled with noisy candidates, some were excited, some were depressed and silent, and some...
However, in this messy crowd, Cheng Xuyuan saw the girl wearing a lavender jacket and with a cold expression at a glance.
She stood in the crowd, graceful and elegant, yet very unsociable.
After seeing Cheng Xuyuan, she hesitated for a moment, but still walked over and said, "Just try your best."
"The work in Yanjing is pretty good."
After saying this, she strode away without waiting for Cheng Xuyuan's response.
Her words should be meant as comfort.
Looking at the woman leaving, Cheng Xuyuan shook his head and muttered to himself: "A woman like this, let alone warming the bed, just looking at her makes me feel cold!"
"I can give Fish Leong courage."
While he was muttering to himself, a gurgling sound came from Cheng Xuyuan's stomach!
I'm hungry!
Let’s go eat! According to my memory, Cheng Xuyuan instinctively walked towards the school cafeteria.
