On July 7, 1986, more than 1.9 million candidates across the country will take this test that determines their destiny today.

Liu Qingshan is also one of them, but the slight difference is that his destiny is in his own hands.

The fire is rising in July, and early in the morning, the sun shows the heat, and the air is dry and hot.

Liu Qingshan was fine, and he rode a bicycle and ran with wind, which was very comfortable.

On the shelves behind, Zheng Xiaoxiao, an old bicycle, walked through the streets and alleys, as if an old movie was playing.

Zheng Xiaoxiao in the back seat of the car felt a little embarrassed. She sat sideways, not hugging Liu Qingshan's waist, but holding her seat tightly with both hands.

Listening to Liu Qingshan's mouth, he seemed to be humming some tune, and as he listened, his face turned a little red.

Because she heard it, it was Teresa Teng's sweet song.

"Sweet, you smile sweetly, as if flowers are blooming in the spring breeze..."

She didn't know that a classic movie shot sounded in Liu Qingshan's mind: the part where Dawn was riding a big bicycle carrying Maggie Cheung.

When he was almost at the door of No. 1 Middle School, Zheng Xiaoxiao jumped out of the car. Liu Qingshan picked one of the two kettles hanging on the handlebars and handed it to her. He didn't forget to give her a sentence: "Come on."

"Well, come on." Zheng Xiaoxiao also waved her fist.

She is a science candidate, while Liu Qingshan took the liberal arts exam, so she must not be able to get a test room.

At the entrance of the examination room, there are basically no parents. It is not popular to take the exam these days.

When he arrived at the school gate, Liu Qingshan took out his admission ticket, checked, pushed the bicycle in, parked the bicycle in the carport and locked it.

Because the instant noodle factory is located in the suburbs of the city and is six or seven miles away from No. 1 Middle School, I borrowed a bicycle from the factory.

Many candidates have gathered in the yard, scattered under the shade of big trees, but Liu Qingshan really doesn't know most of them.

During the three years of high school, he could count the number of times he went to the classroom with a single slap.

"Green Mountain!"

As a result, someone called him.

Looking in the sound, it was Shi Cheng from the same commune as him, and Liu Qingshan came over. He vaguely recognized that the boys here seemed to be from the same class as his class.

Everyone greeted him enthusiastically, and they were very close to Liu Qingshan, but except Shi Cheng, he couldn't call someone else's name, which was a little embarrassed.

After Shi Cheng entered high school, his height rose again, almost 1.9 meters tall, half a head taller than Liu Qingshan.

Don’t look at others who are tall and big, but their brains are very good. The grades are always third in the year group. The ones ahead of him are of course Liu Qingshan and Zheng Xiaoxiao.

"Qingshan, I thought you were not going to take the college entrance examination anymore."

Shi Cheng didn't see Liu Qingshan's shadow during the pre-examination, so he said this.

His family is also from Qingshan Commune. Of course, he knows that Liu Qingshan is more familiar with Liu Qingshan and the villagers in Jiapigou are doing well, and every family has a deposit of tens of thousands of yuan.

I’m not just about finding a good career in the future. I’ve found my own career, but of course I’ll be able to do it or not.

Liu Qingshan smiled: "Of course we must work hard to get out of the exam and see the broader world outside."

The classmates around him nodded in a vague way, but there were also a few who were yawning, obviously because they were too stressed and didn't sleep well.

Shi Cheng seemed to have been infected and yawned: "The hotel we stayed in yesterday was too noisy, and there were mosquitoes. He didn't fall asleep for the first half of the night."

During the college entrance examination, the school’s dormitory canteen was sealed, and candidates could only think of their own ways.

When Liu Qingshan heard this, he couldn't help but blink: "Then you'll leave the hotel room at noon. After the afternoon, follow me to live in the instant noodles factory. There is a dormitory, which is quite quiet and the cafeteria."

After all, it’s a classmate. If you can, please help.

When the boys heard this, their eyes lit up. Shi Cheng asked tentatively: "Qingshan, won't cause trouble, right?"

Liu Qingshan waved his hand: "What's the point of trouble? Zheng Xiaoxiao is living there too."

"Ah? Are you all living together?" Shi Cheng opened his mouth wide.

"What are you thinking about? Stay in two dormitories. By the way, are there any female voices from our class living there in your hotel? I also greeted you and went to the dormitory in the factory, and it just happened to be a companion."

Liu Qingshan wanted to knock on the head of this guy Shi Cheng, but this guy was a little taller, so he could only punch him gently in his shoulder.

"Okay, then I'll inform you now."

Shi Cheng ran away after a few yells. This guy is very popular among his classmates and is very good at dealing with interpersonal relationships.

The first subject in the morning was Chinese. Liu Qingshan answered very easily. Chinese more about examining students' accumulation and ideas. Who can compare with Liu Qingshan's decades of foundation?

As for the essay point of view, Liu Qingshan's cognitive height is of course far beyond his peers.

This year's college entrance examination essay is about giving a small section of the relationship between trees, forests and climate, and then finding meaningful topics on your own and expressing your own opinions.

Liu Qingshan thought for a moment, and then wrote an article from the perspective of individual, national and national spirit.

He introduced it from Lin Zexu's "******, *********" and explained the relationship between individuals and states.

It is emphasized that only by leveraging everyone’s subjective initiative can the country prosper and become strong, and the Chinese nation will surely usher in a great rejuvenation.

Let’s not talk about getting full marks. Such compositions with lofty ideas, political correctness, and extensive quotations and gorgeous writing are difficult to get low marks.

At noon, the students all walked out of the examination room excitedly. It seemed that they all did well in the exam. This is the main reason why they had to take the Chinese language exam in the first subject.

In the past two years, the teaching quality of No. 1 Middle School has steadily improved, and the admission rate has also increased year by year.

Found Zheng Xiaoxiao at the school gate and got on the bicycle. Zheng Xiaoxiao started to chant:

"Qingshan, several girls in the class said that they didn't have a good rest in the hotel. I saw that there were still free dormitories in the factory. Can I ask them to live there?"

"Then you have to ask my elder sister, I don't have the final say." Liu Qingshan deliberately teased the girl.

There was a pothole on the road ahead. After twisting the bicycle, Zheng Xiaoxiao took his hand around Liu Qingshan's waist.

Liu Qingshan is an old driver and is relatively stable. If he had been replaced by an ordinary boy, he would probably be excited and would ride the bicycle in the ditch.

"Jinfengjie will definitely agree."

Zheng Xiaoxiao still has this confidence, she knows Liu Qingshan's family very well.

"That's right, I'll find a few more boys." Liu Qingshan said while riding a bicycle.

Then he felt his waist tightening and was pinched by Zheng Xiaoxiao: "It's intentional, right? You have already planned it, right? Classmate Sanfeng!"

If Zheng Xiaoxiao calls him Sanfeng, it will prove that something must be wrong.

"Driving seriously, don't bother the driver."

Liu Qingshan responded with a righteous and stern expression.

When he returned to the factory, Liu Qingshan was sweating profusely, and the weather was too hot.

Liu Jinfeng was already waiting for them and went directly to the cafeteria. The food was ready, four dishes and one soup. On hot days, they were relatively light. The only meat fish was to cook a fish.

Just so I can lie on the bed and sniff for a while after dinner.

Liu Qingshan spoke about his classmates, and of course Liu Jinfeng agreed and arranged a large truck to be specially responsible for picking up and dropping off.

Speaking of the more than 100 trucks that Liu Qingshan trekked in Heihe, he had already traveled a long distance to the military region.

When I was sending it back, I happened to pass by near Bishui County. Liu Qingshan called Chief Zhao and left twenty cars here directly, allocating ten cars to the instant noodle factory and the ham sausage factory.

Of course, one code is converted into one code, and the car money still needs to be settled with Longteng Company.

When the exam was over in the afternoon, Zheng Xiaoxiao happily gathered the students together, including a dozen men and women.

After leaving the school gate, a big gas car was already waiting on the side of the road, so Liu Qingshan called everyone to get on the bus.

"Wow, there is also this treatment, okay!"

Shi Cheng first climbed the carriage board, rushed to the car, then stretched out his hand and began to pull people up.

This guy specifically grabbed the girl's hand and pulled it up.

More than a dozen people got on the truck and drove away slowly, and the candidates on the ground were envious.

Liu Qingshan's bicycle was also thrown into the truck and returned with him in the truck.

The canteen has prepared dinner, and there is a table of boys and girls.

When the food was served, the students were a little stunned: Four cool and four hot eight dishes, the standard was a bit high. I guess the accommodation and food expenses given by my family would exceed the standard.

"I am Qingshan's eldest sister Liu Jinfeng. Everyone is Qingshan and Xiaoxiao's classmates, which is equivalent to my younger brothers and sisters. No one is allowed to see each other, and they all regard this as their own family."

Liu Jinfeng arranged with a smile. She had experienced many big scenes in the past two years.

Finally, she added:

"You can eat and stay here with peace of mind, all of which are free. Even if the college entrance examination blessings my sister gave you, try to get a good score."

Seeing a few classmates wanting to say something, Liu Qingshan took over the conversation with a smile: "Don't be polite to my sister. It's such a big factory at least, and I'm always eating and drinking."

The students thanked Liu Jinfeng one after another. Although they were in school, they also knew that the two most powerful factories in Bishui County are not those state-owned factories, but unified instant noodles factory and ham sausage factory.

Liu Jinfeng was still afraid that these little guys would be uncomfortable, so she said goodbye and left after a few words of hello. The rest were all classmates, so don’t be polite and start eating.

It’s true that eating is delicious if you eat more people, it’s much more lively than Liu Qingshan and Zheng Xiaoxiao.

After dinner, I went around the backyard of the factory to eat food, and after dark, I would rest early.

Here, the conditions are much better, eating well and sleeping soundly, and entering the examination room with high energy.
