Li Mingqing and Li Mingli vaguely heard the sound of quarreling coming from the village.
"Ming Qing, it seems that some educated youths are fighting again."
"Zhou Jingli probably doesn't have the guts to fight. He'll just be beaten up by the crowd. At most, he'll just make a few noises but won't dare to start a fight."
"It's a good thing we left early, otherwise he would have been kicked out and would have had the audacity to stay at the Li family for a few days."
About fifteen minutes later, Li Mingqing heard someone calling him from behind.
He didn't need to look back to know that the person calling him was Zhou Jingli.
I didn't expect him to catch up.
Zhou Jingli came over and was about to speak when he was interrupted by Li Mingqing.
"I can probably guess what you're going to say. I recommend you go to the guesthouse."
"Guesthouse? Doesn't that cost money? I'm just going to your place for one night. I don't ask for much, just a place to stay. Even if it means sleeping in the kitchen, at least I have a place to stay."
How dare he say something like living in the kitchen?
It seems that there is really no way out.
Li Mingqing refused again.
"No way."
"You are so heartless! Everyone is calling you a living Buddha, but you won't even let me stay at your house for one night."
"Why don't you just go to the Public Security Bureau? There's definitely a place for you in one of those cells."
Zhou Jingli's expression changed immediately when he heard this.
What kind of nonsense is this? The exam is so important, yet he has to live in such an unlucky place.
"I have no grudge against you. You are just cursing me to fail the exam."
"Then I wish you success in the imperial examination."
After saying this, Li Mingqing turned and left.
He was absolutely sincere in what he said.
But the objective facts are there, and you can't get a good grade just by saying a few nice words.
Zhou Jingli originally wanted to go forward and say a few more words, but in the end he turned around and walked towards the village.
The bed he placed at the door of the educated youth institute had not been confiscated.
If someone took the bed away, he would be in trouble, after all, it was all his belongings.
By then, we will be completely penniless.
He went back and picked up the bedding on the ground, and stood at the door of the educated youth institute for five minutes before leaving.
After much deliberation, he decided to go to Huaizhi for help.
No one in the village would let him live at home, and he couldn't go back to the educated youth institute.
Before arriving at Yu Huaizhi's house, I saw Yu Huaizhi and Wang Mudan walking towards the village entrance with a box.
He hurriedly shouted, "Huaizhi! Where are you going?"
"Go to the county town. It's too late to go there tomorrow morning. Go to the guesthouse and stay overnight."
Only after Yu Huaizhi finished speaking did people see the bedding on his shoulders.
"What are you doing?"
"Well, it's just right that you're not at home. I'll stay at your place for two nights."
Wang Mudan refused, "No, you should go to the guesthouse too. Otherwise, we really won't be able to make it tomorrow. Wu Zhiqing and his men have already found a car. If you walk there, you'll have to walk to the county town in the middle of the night."
Yu Huaizhi probably guessed that he was kicked out.
He advised, "Just stay at the guesthouse. It won't cost much for just two nights."
"That's easy for me to say, but I don't have two dollars in my pocket."
"I know you're not rich, but you still have money to stay in a guest house."
Yu Huaizhi pointed it out directly.
That was all he said. He didn't say anything else and continued walking towards the village entrance with Wang Mudan.
There was no way he could let Zhou Jingli live in his house.
It is easy to invite gods but difficult to send them away.
Zhou Jingli looked at the couple's backs and cursed the heavens and the earth.
It's too much that everyone is against him.
At such a critical time before the exam, they must be afraid that his results will be inferior to theirs.
Even now he is still very narcissistic.
He had completely forgotten that he was worried that everyone in the Youth League Institute would be admitted to university, so he maliciously threw his admission tickets into the old stove.
In the end he stayed in the guesthouse.
——
Li Mingqing and Da Niu and several other children returned home.
Erniu and Sanniu put their schoolbags on the table.
Although it was quite cold outside, the house was very warm, much warmer than a house with a stove in the countryside.
Xiangdong said, "Uncle, is there any work?"
"There's no work to do. Just do whatever you want and feel comfortable with."
The big girl has taken out the collection of wrong questions from her schoolbag and started studying.
Si Niu joked, "Sister, your grades are much better than mine. Seeing you work so hard makes me feel so guilty."
The girl said seriously, "As for your quirky cleverness, I can't compare with you."
"That's just you being too self-deprecating. You always do better than me on every test."
Niuniu also said: "Yes, big sister, our grades are good, the teacher said we have no problem, don't be nervous."
Seeing their worried expressions, the girl smiled and said, "I'm not nervous. I just want to consolidate the mistakes I made before."
"I'll go clean up the room first."
Si Niu stood up from the stool and went into the house to make the bed.
Li Mingqing said, "Your parents came and took care of it yesterday. You don't need to clean up, just move in directly."
"Oh my, I have to go check it out."
"You guys stay home, I'll go help out in the store."
After Li Mingqing finished speaking, he put on his coat and rode his bicycle to the stationery store.
There were several people standing in front of the stationery store.
As soon as they heard the sound of Li Mingqing's brakes, they all looked over.
I recognized him at a glance.
"Comrade, you look familiar. Are you Li Mingqing?"
"Yes, I am."
"Oh my god, it's true. Your name is so famous that I finally see you in person today."
Li Mingqing saw how excited they were and asked, "Who are you?"
"We are educated youth taking the exam tomorrow and have come here specifically to buy pens. Didn't you sign up for the college entrance exam?"
"No."
Upon hearing this, the man's face was full of regret.
He felt that it was a waste of talent for someone as talented as Li Mingqing not to take the college entrance examination.
But I was also glad that Li Mingqing didn't have to take the exam.
Otherwise, there will be a strong competitor.
A few people came into the store, bought a few pens and left.
Before leaving, he also said hello and goodbye to Li Mingqing.
Sun Jiaxue asked, "Do you know him?"
"I don't know them. I don't know which village they are from, but they know me."
"Brother Mingqing, have Niuniu and the others picked it up?"
"They're making a fuss at home. Let's go, close the door and go home."
She smiled brightly and asked, "Are you here to take me home?"
"Of course."
Just as I was about to lock the door, I saw Wang Nana jogging towards me.
"Wait a minute, come buy a pen."
Seeing that she was anxious, Sun Jiaxue opened the door and let her into the store to choose a pen.
As soon as Wang Nana entered the room, she saw Wang Hongxing running over. Seeing Li Mingqing, he shouted, "Hey, have you seen my daughter?"
"Buying a pen in the house."
Wang Hongxing breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
The father and daughter had just had an argument at home, and Wang Hongxing got so angry that he accidentally threw the pen that Wang Nana had prepared into the stove.
Although it was taken out quickly, it was burned and could not be used.
Wang Nana ran out without saying a word, and he was so scared that he quickly followed her.
Fortunately, the admission ticket fell on the edge of the stove and only a corner was burned, otherwise it would have been a big disaster.
