Wang Donglai's home is in Wangjia Village, Siping Town, just down the road, right next to a provincial road, so it's convenient to go home every time. You can just take the county bus there.
I made an appointment with my friends from the same village to take the shuttle bus home together today.
Wangjia Village, as its name suggests, means that most people have the surname Wang.
There are many friends who grew up with Wang Donglai, but they fell behind one by one after junior high school.
By the time we reached high school, there were only a few people left, and the others had already gone out to work.
At this moment, on the shuttle bus.
Wang Donglai, Wang Qingchen, Wang Yang, Wang You, and Wang Xiaoling formed a small group.
Although there is an age difference between them, they are all senior students in this year's high school because they go to school.
In the car, Wang Donglai could feel the changes.
Faced with the rapid improvement of their grades, Wang Yang, Wang You and others are obviously still a little uncomfortable.
"What are you going to do during the summer vacation? I'm going to work as a security guard at the Lihua Hotel for two months, taking care of food and accommodation, and I'll be paid 1,500 yuan a month. I'm going with a few classmates from the physical education class. Are you going?" "
Wang Huan asked Wang You and Wang Yang with a smile on his face.
"I won't go. I don't want to go to college. After staying at home for a while, I will go out to work. I will go to the southern magic city to learn some skills and come back."
Wang You had the worst grades, so he directly stated his plans at this time.
"I'll forget it. I'll have fun at home for two months. My dad said he would give me some money to travel."
Wang Yang pushed up his glasses and declined Wang Huan's suggestion.
Seemingly losing face, Wang Huan looked at Wang Donglai and asked: "Donglai, what are you going to do? If you have nothing to do, just come with me. It's fun when there are many people, and you still have money. Listen It’s quite easy to be a security guard there, no one cares about it at all.”
Shaking his head, Wang Donglai looked at Wang Huan and tried to persuade him: "It can't be easy no matter where you work and get paid. It's okay to go out and exercise in the past two or three months, but it's different outside than at school." , you should pay more attention then."
"I asked my dad to buy some books in Tangdu, and they should be delivered back tomorrow. During this time, I am going to read and learn something at home for college."
Hearing what Wang Donglai said, Wang Yang was instantly interested, and he raised his head and asked, "What major are you going to study? What books did you buy?"
Wang Xiaoling and others on the side also set their sights on Wang Donglai.
In just a few months, Wang Donglai's performance in school has been overwhelming, which has long become the biggest doubt in the minds of these friends who know Wang Donglai best.
In elementary school, junior high school, and high school, it can be said that everyone knows each other's grades very well from childhood to more than ten years in college.
Originally, Wang Yang had the best results among everyone, followed by Wang Qingchen, Wang Xiaoling, Wang Huan, Wang Donglai, and Wang You.
As a result, it was like Wang Donglai took some miraculous medicine overnight, and his grades skyrocketed.
In fact, when they learned about Wang Donglai's results, it was the first time the monthly exam results were announced.
At first, they thought it was someone with the same name, but after asking the class, they found out they were the same person.
Afterwards, I found Wang Donglai and confirmed it several times before I believed it.
"I have bought a lot of books, including "The Way to Clean Architecture", "The Way to Clean Code", "The Way of Programmer Training: From Little Workers to Experts", "Refactoring - Improving the Design of Existing Code", " "Java Concurrent Programming Practice", "Design Patterns: The Foundation of Reusable Object-Oriented Software"..."
The series of names coming out of Wang Donglai's mouth made everyone dizzy and confused at all.
Looking at the expressions on everyone's faces, Wang Donglai also knew that everyone did not understand, so he changed his explanation and said: "These books are just some knowledge that teaches you how to write software and computer programming."
"Oh, you can repair computers once you learn how to do it, right?"
After Wang Xiaoling heard this, she suddenly realized what she said to Wang Donglai.
Speechless!
Wang Donglai knew that for those of him who were young, they didn’t know much about computers, programming, or programmers.
Log in to QQ to chat, play games, and download TV movies.
The role of the computer is limited to this, and other functions are not understood at all.
There is only one Internet cafe in Siping Town, and 20 machines are running out of power.
It costs three yuan for one hour, five yuan for two hours, seven yuan for three hours, and ten yuan for a night can play for ten hours.
He thought a lot in his mind at that moment. Wang Donglai didn't have any sense of superiority, but instead suddenly felt a kind of sadness.
He wasn't like this before.
"If you believe me, go and learn computer science. No matter whether you can learn this major or not, even if you have to pay for a tutoring class, you must learn this. Being a programmer in the future will be really popular."
"Wang You, if you go to the magic city to learn skills, you might as well find a place to learn cooking, or learn decoration skills, or else learn how to loader and excavator. If you master it, you will make a lot of money."
After Wang Donglai said these two sentences, he saw that everyone looked disapproving and did not listen at all. He shook his head and said nothing more.
Being poor cares themselves, being wealthy cares the world.
Everyone has his own destiny, and Wang Donglai does not want to interfere with the destiny of others at will.
A reminder is enough.
However, Wang Qingchen had a serious look on his face. He sat in his seat and thought for a while, then said seriously and firmly: "Donglai, I bought your book, let me read it too. I will listen to you in the university, go Study computer science."
"Okay, the book will come back tomorrow, you come to my house to get it." Wang Donglai replied with a smile.
The entire journey was silent.
More than an hour later, the shuttle bus stopped in Wangjiacun.
Wang Donglai walked towards home with his bag on his back and the quilt he took out from the trunk of the shuttle bus in his arms.
The weather in June is extremely hot. Wang Donglai's home is not far from the road, only a few dozen meters away, but it has to go up a slope.
By the time he got home, Wang Donglai was already sweating.
Because Wang Yanxing and Cao Shuxian were working at the Tangdu construction site, this one-story building, which had been built for seven or eight years, had already accumulated a lot of dust.
After spending time doing a complete cleaning, Wang Donglai lay down on the sofa to rest.
"call……"
"I'm afraid the system settlement rewards will have to wait until the results are released on June 25, which is still 16 days away..."
"These 16 days are just a good time to see how much my learning ability has improved without the support of the reading system."
Thinking about it in his mind, Wang Donglai quickly made a plan for the next time.
…
afternoon.
"Wang Donglai, are you back?"
"How did you do in the exam? I heard that you have studied very well in the past few months. Are you sure about going to college?"
"Give your parents some credit. There are only two high school students in your family in our village, so our expectations for you are very high."
"When will the results be released? Your second uncle said you can get the top prize this time. Is it true?"
"Your parents are reluctant to eat or wear clothes outside, just to support you and your sister in school. You have to work hard to make money after graduation so that your parents can enjoy it too."
When walking in the village, many villagers would take the initiative to talk to Wang Donglai when they saw him.
Some people will always say that rural people are simple and honest.
But Wang Donglai knew that some people in rural areas were indeed simple and honest, but most of them hated others, laughed at others, despised others for being poor, and feared others for being rich.
Especially Wang Donglai's family, because his grandfather had been famous in that generation all his life, and ended up offending many people.
Many people were dissatisfied, so they excluded Wang Donglai and his group in daily life.
When Wang Donglai was still young, he heard Wang Yanxing say that his family was well off when he was a child, but after Wang Donglai's grandfather died, he was bullied.
Grandma Wang Donglai was beaten even more. Wang Yanxing was still young and could not protect her. Uncle Wang Donglai and his second uncle were beaten with only four fists and were bullied.
Finally, Wang Donglai's second uncle went directly to Shaolin Temple Tagou Martial Arts School to practice martial arts.
After practicing for two years, I brought a red tassel gun and a large blade with me when I returned home.
From then on, no one dared to bully Wang Yanxing and the others openly.
Secretly, there are never any small moves.
At this time, the words spoken by these people in the same village were obviously meant to be a joke, and if counted, these people who spoke were the same ancestors as Wang Donglai, and they branched off only in the same generation.
After listening to everyone's words, Wang Donglai looked calm and walked straight past as if he hadn't heard anything.
Seeing Wang Donglai like this, everyone started talking louder.
"Even if you get into college, so what? You will be unemployed after graduation."
"I guess he won't be able to get into any good school, and he won't be working for others after he graduates."
"They don't have the destiny to go to school. Going to school is a waste of money. Look at his father's generation and his generation, none of them are successful..."
Hearing these words from a distance, Wang Donglai curled up into a sneer, suddenly looking forward to how they would change their faces after his results came out.
