School ends at noon, students take their report cards and leave school, and the winter vacation of the second year of high school begins. Zhang Yongsheng and his friends agreed to have a hot pot buffet at noon, and he called in advance to reserve a place. Everyone was in high spirits along the way, but Zhao Yunfei, who was usually the most active, was unhappy.
Zhang Yongsheng and Bai Zhixuan did not call for a car, but rode bicycles with everyone. Bai Zhixuan was sitting in the back seat of Zhang Yongsheng, chatting with Li Yuanyuan who was sitting in the back seat of Zhao Yunfei. Zhao Yunfei rode his bike with his head down and said nothing. When others mentioned him in conversation, he didn't bother to talk.
Zhang Yongsheng felt that this was not a good idea and persuaded him: "Old Zhao, please change your mind and stop being so sad. Isn't it halfway through? You should pay more attention to the other half in the next semester. It will be no problem."
Zhao Yunfei was silent for a while and then said: "I have reviewed these subjects very well. I thought I would pass at least two subjects, but who would have thought that I would fail them all. Even if I can work hard next year, I will pass half of the rest at most." What to do? I have to register in September, why don’t I go to the Provincial Sports Institute to study?”
Zhang Yongsheng burst into laughter. This was the first time he saw Zhao Yunfei care so much about his grades: "You have changed a lot. Didn't you care about these things before?"
Zhao Yunfei sighed: "I didn't care before. I never thought about going to college. I just wanted to graduate and go to a technical school or something. Now that I'm going to college, I can't let go of this opportunity. Besides, I'll give it to my dad." Mom has agreed, if this thing goes wrong, there is no way to explain it."
Li Xing stopped the car, stepped back and said with a smile: "What? Are you still upset? You shouldn't take this to heart. Have you seen any students in our No. 2 Middle School who can't graduate?"
Zhao Yunfei was confused for a moment and said hesitantly: "There should be. I see that there are several at the bottom of each class, and almost all of them failed. If these people can graduate, I will eat their bikes."
Li Xing smiled proudly and said: "According to my information, although No. 2 Middle School is known as the worst middle school in the county, not a single student has failed to graduate in the past ten years. In fact, No. 3 Middle School and No. 4 Middle School, which are similar to No. 2 Middle School, have recently There is no student who cannot graduate in ten years, so what are you worried about?"
Zhao Yunfei and Li Yuanyuan were both stunned. They had been under a lot of pressure recently and had never thought about this problem. After a moment, Zhao Yunfei slowly uttered three words: "Why?"
Lee , you’re not the only one who failed the exam.”
Bai Zhixuan nodded and said: "That's right. A lot of people in our class failed this year, and they all looked sad. Fortunately, Yongsheng gave me the vaccination in advance. I took the time to prepare more, otherwise I would have been vaccinated. Move. Lao Du’s move is too unkind and has deceived many people.”
Zhang Yongsheng nodded and said: "This kind of thing is just an accidental phenomenon. It should not happen next time. After the college entrance examination next semester, the school will organize a make-up exam for senior high school graduates. In order to make it easier for you senior high school students to graduate, the difficulty will definitely be greatly reduced. As long as you don't No matter how messed up you are, you can graduate successfully."
Li Yuanyuan said doubtfully: "This kind of thing still happens in our school? Does the county education bureau know that they also agree with the school's graduation re-examination?"
Li Xing smiled confidently: "You don't understand this. This is a tacit understanding between the school and the Education Bureau, and it is also an unspoken rule for many years. If we really want to get a few people who can't graduate, how do we fill in the files? How do we report it to the higher education level? Going to the institution? Do you still want the face of the Education Bureau?"
Bai Zhixuan sighed: "From the perspective of officialdom rules, this situation is quite common. Anyway, the high school graduation exam is not important at all. The college entrance examination is the only indicator that determines performance. As long as it can cooperate with the college entrance examination, other rules will be put aside and reduced. The difficulty of the exam is just a small thing.”
After hearing everyone's explanation, the stone in Zhao Yunfei's heart finally fell to the ground, and he smiled awkwardly: "If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't worry about it. Did you guys do it unintentionally, just like watching my joke? ? Wait and see if I don’t drink you to death?”
Zhang Yongsheng pretended to be timid and said, "I'm really scared, why don't you come over here?"
A few people laughed and joked, and soon arrived at the self-service hot pot restaurant in the commercial street. There were relatively few people in the hot pot restaurant at noon. They chose a seat near the food area, put two tables together, and started feasting. Young people are better at eating, and they were sweating profusely after a while.
The two girls ate more elegantly, but Zhang Yongsheng and others were more unrestrained. They ate and drank, with a large box of beer bottles piled next to them. Zhang Yongsheng and Zhao Yunfei both have good drinking capacity. Zhou Lanbing and others also drink frequently, and they have no restraint when they are happy.
When they were about to finish eating, the boys started to brag over the wine, while the girls drank juice and looked on with smiles. The atmosphere was very lively. After the final exam, everyone was very relaxed. Since there were few people eating hot pot at noon, their voices were uncontrollable and the noise could be heard in the entire hall.
Everyone was happy when suddenly a green figure flew towards Li Xing who laughed the loudest. Zhang Yongsheng, with quick eyesight and quick hands, reached out into the air and grabbed the green shadow. It turned out to be an empty beer bottle. He turned his head and looked in the direction from which the beer bottles were flying. Standing at the door of the private room was a glaring middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was short, tall and fat, with a red face. He had obviously drank a lot. They glared at Zhang Yongsheng's table and had an empty beer bottle in their hands to throw over. Everyone looked at Zhang Yongsheng and frowned.
Zhang Yongsheng put down the beer bottle, smiled awkwardly and said, "Uncle, what's wrong? We just drank and chatted. If I offend you in any way, please forgive me."
The middle-aged man rushed to the dining table and shouted: "You are a bunch of little bastards, you are making trouble after eating hot pot. Shut your mouth quickly, if you dare to say another word, I will kill you."
As he spoke, he waved a beer bottle and sprayed saliva, looking threatening. Everyone looked at each other with various expressions on their faces. Zhang Yongsheng and Zhao Yunfei both looked indifferent, Bai Zhixuan frowned, and Li Xing, Liu Wei, and Li Yuanyuan were so frightened that they shut up.
The waiters at the hot pot restaurant seemed to step forward to dissuade him. They were a little wary when they saw the middle-aged man's aggressive look. They stood hesitantly at a distance, watching with anxious expressions on their faces. Some people hurried back behind the cashier and called the boss.
Zhao Yunfei felt unhappy and wanted to speak out to refute, but was held down by Li Yuanyuan. Zhang Yongsheng refused to accept the other party's tactics and said calmly: "Uncle, let's have a lively meal. Why do you bother? We were too loud and disturbed you. We apologize. You don't need to be so reluctant."
