No matter the joys, angers, sorrows and happiness in the world, nature always changes the seasons of the year gradually according to its own laws.

The two brothers Zhang Shaoping and Zhang Shaoan spent several spring, summer, autumn and winter at the county No. 1 Middle School. This is the last semester of Zhang Shaoping and Zhang Shaoan’s high school. In this tense and anxious day, the two brothers Zhang Shaoping did not dare to waste their precious study time at the moment, because they are about to face the first hurdle in their lives - the college entrance examination.

During the years when Zhang Shaoping and Zhang Shaoan were studying at No. 1 Middle School in the county, they learned a lot here, made many friends, gained friendship and the love in Zhang Shaoping's eyes, and abandoned a lot of narrow-mindedness and prejudice about "landbullshit". All of this seemed to have just begun, but it seemed to be about to end.

But no matter what, he was still happy that he was about to graduate from high school, and all this was so difficult.

What was even happier about Zhang Shaoping and Zhang Shaoan was that they were almost eighteen years old, which means that they were almost adults and were about to become adults.

Whenever a person reaches the age of 18, which is a youthful and energetic age, there will be obvious changes in both physical and mental health. This is also a sign of a person's maturity. Zhang Shaoping and Zhang Shaoping are no exception. They begin to have their own ideals and goals of struggle.

In short, the two brothers can finally pursue their own lives. Although all this has just begun, they have begun to have their initial view of life in their hearts.

In recent years of study and life, Zhang Shaoping and Zhang Shaoan have gained a lot of knowledge from books. This knowledge reserve is enough for the two of them to cope with the college entrance examination. However, in a person's daily life, the knowledge learned in books is far from enough to cope with all aspects of society. This is what the ancients said: What you get on paper will always be shallow, and you must practice it yourself to know this.

In the days that followed, Zhang Shaoping still went to the library to read books and write questions like An Yuran as usual. On this tense day, all the fresh graduates of the county No. 1 Middle School entered the tense review stage day and night, and no one felt relaxed at all.

Students who are memorizing books can be seen everywhere on campus, even eating, going to the bathroom, and sleeping, all working hard for the college entrance examination.

The countdown to the college entrance examination begins, and there are still 30 days left before the college entrance examination. Seeing the calendar hanging next to the blackboard being torn off one page, the recent graduates of the county No. 1 Middle School have become more and more diligent in their study.

There are very high books and mock test papers stacked on the table, and everyone is busy working on the questions and reviewing and consolidating them.

Time always passes by without realizing it. A week before the college entrance examination, everyone is giving gifts to each other, sorting out their own things, taking photos in a single photo, and taking photos together. Friends of good friends also gathered together to take a souvenir photo. For this matter, the county photo studio specially sent several photographers to the county No. 1 Middle School to take photos of their own wishes for them.

Yes! I am about to graduate, and my classmates have to take photos to record their past lives. Even if my youth cannot be kept, they can be preserved in this way.

After taking the photos, many students with abundant resources would go to the restaurant on the street to have dinner together - the tables and benches there were occupied by these young people for several consecutive days. At this time, the students would have an indescribable complex feeling in their hearts. They had just entered the school and were looking forward to the arrival of graduation day, but when it came to this day, they were reluctant to leave. More importantly, everyone realized that their youth would be gone forever, and they would face them with a mysterious and unknown life.

The college entrance examination has arrived as scheduled. The sun is particularly bright and the air is particularly fresh. All of this is so beautiful.

The two brothers Zhang Shaoping and Zhang Shaoan came to their college entrance examination room early, County No. 3 Middle School. At this moment, the gate of County No. 3 Middle School was already filled with people of candidates and parents who came to assist in the exam. The gate of No. 3 Middle School was blocked from the gate of No. 1 Middle School, and some even pulled banners for college entrance examination assistance. Some parents were comforting their children not to be nervous and relax their minds. Some candidates were holding review materials for the subject exam, and they recited silently while reading.

Looking at the police car and patrol car, ambulance and straight cordons beside them, many candidates were inexplicably nervous, and their hands were shaking unconsciously.

Soon, the school gate of the examination room opened on time, and many candidates flocked to it. It is no exaggeration to say that people did not enter the school gate, but were squeezed into the school gate.

The candidates who squeezed in from the school gate looked at the college entrance examination service station next to them filled with mineral water and tissues. These things were sent to the candidates for free, which also brought convenience to many candidates.

Each candidate looked at the examination room number on the admission ticket number and searched carefully on the examination room distribution diagram, and then searched for his own examination room in turn.

When you walk to the entrance of the examination room, you will see if there are cheating tools in the items brought by the candidates with special sensors. You can only enter the examination room after the inspection is completed.

After entering the examination room, an invigilator read out the precautions for college entrance examination and the regulations on the integrity examination manual. An invigilator checked whether the candidate's personal information was correct, and then distributed the examination barcode. All operations were mainly communicated by the broadcast, supplemented by monitoring and testing.

After a while, the radio issued the examination papers and answer sheets for the invigilator. The invigilator raised the examination papers and answer sheets with both hands and told the candidates that the examination papers and answer sheets were completely sealed, without any traces of opening them."

Then he notified the invigilator to distribute the test papers and answer sheets, and the test papers were distributed one by one. Many candidates in the examination room were frightened when they first came into contact with this size of the exam.

Some candidates had sweat beads flowing on their foreheads, some had frowns, and some even had to face them no matter what.

After taking the test paper, the rustling sound of reading the test paper continued to resound throughout the examination room. After a few minutes, the examination room was silent, and even the sound of breathing could be heard. Then there was the friction of the pen tip writing on the test paper and the answer sheet.

Seeing the college entrance examination time pass by one point, the radio suddenly said that half an hour before the end of the exam, and candidates can hand in the papers. Some candidates panicked, so that the sweat from the hot body was already sweating profusely, soaking the collar of their shirts.

When the radio said that there were still 5 minutes before the exam, many candidates who had not yet filled out the answer sheet hurriedly picked up the 2b pencils prepared on the table and filled out the answer sheet that they thought was correct.

Not long after, the radio broadcast came again and the candidates handed in the papers and showed up.

The invigilator asked the candidates who were writing to stop all their movements and confiscate the test papers on the table. After walking out of the examination room, there was a crowd of people in front of him. Seeing some candidates showing smiles on their faces, it seemed that they were doing well in the exam and were very confident in themselves. Some candidates had a gloomy face and frowned. It was really a joyful and sad!

After repeating the exam movements just now, the remaining subjects were finally over. The college entrance examination was finally over. The two brothers Zhang Shaoping and Zhang Shaoan walked out of the examination room and were full of confidence in themselves. They felt that they performed very well in the college entrance examination this time, so they waited for the college entrance examination results to be released.

In the evening, the streets were deserted and there were no more people. The sky above the city was filled with smoke, as if every household was busy cooking. Zhang Shaoping and Zhang Shaoan returned to the No. 1 Middle School in the County where they lived and studied for six years. Everything here was so friendly to them, but now they were about to say goodbye to this campus where they had been studying and living for six years.

Zhang Shaoping looked at this familiar campus and said to himself: "Farewell, County No. 1 Middle School, I remember how awe and fear I was full of you when I first came. Now when I am about to leave you, I don't know why, but I am full of so reluctance to you."

Yes! Zhang Shaoping gained a lot. The country bumpkin who once looked rustic suddenly turned into a top student who was well-educated. Everything here seemed to be a deep mark on his body and heart. What he was even happier was that he could meet many partners and his lover at the No. 1 Middle School, An Yuran.

Goodbye, dear County No. 1 Middle School, dear library... Zhang Shaoping moved his footsteps slowly with a happy and sad mood, closed his eyes tightly, and traced back all the beautiful or sad memories that had lived in County No. 1 Middle School for six years.

When he walked to the library, he opened his eyes and saw An Yuran, who was obviously waiting for him here.

"Where are you going?" An Yu said with a smile.

Zhang Shaoping responded: "I'll just go there, where are you? Are you waiting for me here?"

"Well, I've been waiting for you for a long time," she said.

"What are you waiting for me?"

"Let's go, I'll invite you to dinner," she said.

Zhang Shaoping and An Yuran put aside Zhang Shaoan, and they found a hotel alone, chatting and laughing about the topics they paid attention to and focused on - where to go after the college entrance examination?

Yes! The college entrance examination is over, and they are about to face their own different lives. The thing they fear most in life is to say goodbye to their beloved. They both know that they can get a good grade, but they don’t know if the next path will be together. After all, An Yuran has always been significantly different from his family status. An Yuran’s parents will definitely arrange for her to attend a better school, and for him, they just want to become a useful teacher, which is also his original dream.

He was very happy that he could go to school, but how many people could successfully finish elementary school, junior high school, high school and then college like him? Many people dropped out of school early because their family conditions did not allow them to help their family live.
