"Just take the exam at Yucheng No. 1 Middle School! My master said that school is pretty good."
Yucheng No. 1 Middle School?
Yao Nan's eyes widened in surprise.
"That is one of the best high schools in our entire city of Chongqing. It belongs to the top prestigious schools! Are you sure about your deskmate?"
I shrugged.
"The goal that Master has set for me, whether it works or not, let's give it a try before deciding? I think I'm at least 70-80% sure. And with my grades, even if I don't get admitted to Yucheng No. 1 Middle School, Fubei Middle School should still admit me. .”
Although this statement sounds a bit narcissistic and arrogant, it is true.
At that time, the high school entrance examination was generally a joint entrance examination for the whole province (municipalities directly under the Central Government).
In other words, high schools in the city and high schools in various prefecture-level cities and counties compete together and admit the best.
For example, Lianghe Town belongs to Fubei County. But in fact, Lianghe District Middle School can directly skip the high school in Fubei County and directly register for the school in Chongqing City.
Of course, it is very difficult!
After all, the admission score of Yucheng No. 1 Middle School is more than a hundred points higher than that of Fubei Middle School... and the admission score of Fubei Middle School itself is already fifty or sixty points higher than the average of key high schools.
About every two to three years in Lianghe District Middle School, one or two people will be able to successfully enter a school like Yucheng No. 1 Middle School. It's like a carp leaping over the dragon's gate. From a small town, you go directly to the bustling main city to attend high school.
"That's it...it seems to make sense. Anyway, if you don't pass the exam, you can still get a guaranteed scholarship at Fubei Middle School. Then I'll give it a try!"
Yao Nan gritted his teeth, grabbed my application form, and copied it.
"That's it! Since you, my roommate, have the courage, I'm going to give it a try too. I hope we can at least still be classmates in high school."
Well……
I scratched my head helplessly.
"It is hard for me to disobey my teacher's orders, Yao Nan, why are you doing this? Although if you fail to get into Yucheng No. 1 Middle School, there are Fubei Middle School that can guarantee you. But in fact, it is only slightly worse than Yucheng No. 1 Middle School. Chongqing No. 8 Middle School and Xida Affiliated Middle School are still safe.”
"Then I don't care!"
Yao Nan raised his chin and tilted his head slightly. Deliberately putting on a arrogant look.
Since she was so insistent, there was nothing I could do.
Wang Dachun and Zeng Jin looked at us, looking a little hesitant.
"Brother Chun, do you also want to follow Brother Ang and others to fill in the Chongqing City No. 1 Middle School? The gap between our grades is really too big..."
"Nonsense! I'm not that stupid yet."
In the past three years, despite my request, these two guys have stopped fooling around with other dudes all day long. Performance improves quickly.
But it is probably just a little higher than the score line of key high schools.
As for Fubei Middle School, after they enter the high school, their parents can find some connections and pay extra money to the school. There may be hope.
There is no chance of going to a top prestigious school like Yucheng No. 1 Middle School... unless at least he has a father who is a district mayor in the city!
Wang Dachun looked at the volunteer list and sighed in frustration.
"Boss, it seems I can't be in the same school as you and Yao Nan in high school."
I smiled and patted his shoulder.
"It's okay in the spring. Even if Yao Nan and I have passed the exam and gone to the city. We can also go online and chat on QQ. Anyway, technology is getting more and more developed now. And during the winter and summer vacations, we always have to go to the city. I came back from here. What's more, now I'm just filling out the application form, and I haven't even written my horoscope yet."
"Hehe, that's what the boss said. It's not like we can't meet again..."
Wang Dachun scratched his head and smiled naively.
In short, on that hot summer day when the cicadas were chirping noisily.
The atmosphere of farewell after graduation has begun to permeate the campus.
Soon, the high school entrance examination came.
I felt that I performed well and walked out of the examination room after handing in the last subject. I feel that going to Yucheng No. 1 Middle School is 80% safe!
So during the half month when I went home and waited for the news, I felt very relaxed.
It was finally possible to put aside books completely and no longer have to deal with all kinds of schoolwork!
Master also asked me not to practice so hard every day, nor to run to her yard every day, but to relax for a while.
Everything else is fine, but I definitely have to go to her place every day!
Even if you are not a practitioner in the past, it is still good to take a look at Master.
Watching Master quietly drinking tea or playing with flowers and plants makes me feel very good.
All in all, this should be the most relaxing period of my young life.
Since childhood, I have been shrouded in the shadow of my horoscope. After becoming a little sensible, he could not rest even for a moment. Now I finally don’t have to bear that pressure anymore.
really……
When the total test score and the admission cutoff were announced, I was successfully admitted with a score that exceeded the admission cutoff of Yucheng No. 1 Middle School by ten points - although I did not get into the key class, to be honest, children in the town could get into this top class in the city. A prestigious school is already a moderate miracle.
As for Yao Nan, she just crossed the line by one point and was admitted!
Two days before receiving the admission notice, I returned early to Lao Cao's coffin shop in Lianghe Town.
"Hey, Xiao Wu, I didn't get the notice until the day after tomorrow. Why did you come back early?"
Lao Cao raised his head in surprise. He was still working on his huanghuali wood coffin - he had been doing it for two or three years, and he didn't know how long in advance the rich man had ordered it.
I didn't ask much, anyway, I just saw him doing it slowly.
I laughed.
"I'm leaving Two Rivers Town soon, and I'll go back to the coffin shop to live there. In the future, I may not have much chance."
Lao Cao was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly.
"That's right, you are going to study in the city. It will take you half a day to get back by car. And I heard that many high schools in the city are boarding schools, so you have to live on campus, right? That means you have to have holidays, long holidays and so on. I can only go home once.”
"Well, don't worry, Old Cao. As long as I go home, I will definitely go back to Lianghe Town to see you first."
Wang Hu was also floating in the air, looking at me and smiling.
At this moment, there was a rustling sound outside the door.
Lao Cao and I turned around at the same time and saw the little guy Hui Hui jumping over the high threshold and landing in the house.
"Brother Wu!"
Huihui plunged into my arms, rubbing his furry little head.
Madoka stood on a beam on the ceiling, muttering disdainfully.
"Hmph... This stupid fox, acting like it is Mr. Wu's family fairy? It's a bit too proactive. It loses the face of a monster!"
I was too lazy to pay attention to this stupid bird. I rubbed the soft gray hair and was about to ask him where Bai Su was.
I saw a big white rabbit jumping into the house.
She said hello to me with a smile.
"Brother Wu, it seems that Huihui and I came here by chance. We originally wanted to come to Cao Coffin Maker's place to stay and wait for you."
Her and Hui Hui's cultivation levels have also improved in recent years.
Especially the illusion and blinding methods.
It can be used in broad daylight and deceive the eyes of ordinary people on the street!
As long as they are not exposed to direct sunlight or directly touched by others, to the eyes of ordinary people, they are just ordinary human siblings walking on the street.
"That's great! Let's eat, drink and have fun these two days. Later, Lao Cao and I will go to the wet market and supermarket to purchase various fresh ingredients and come back. Please ask Uncle Hu to cook a big meal for the next two days."
"Brother Wu, don't forget to buy me some snacks when you come back! There must be potato chips and jelly."
Hui Hui quickly rubbed his little paws and said expectantly.
Made everyone laugh.
Madoka, on the other hand, had her wings akimbo, looking mean and arrogant.
"Wu boy, don't forget to buy me some more fish! If I don't eat fish for a day, I will feel uncomfortable all over. This discomfort will make me go crazy. Once he goes crazy, you will be finished..."
Everyone is used to it and don’t bother to care about it!
Two days later in the morning, I went to school to get the admission notice from Yucheng No. 1 Middle School - the notices were all sent to the school and then distributed by the head teacher.
As soon as I passed the three-way intersection on the main street, I saw Wang Dachun and Zeng Jin waiting there, waving to me from a distance.
"Boss!"
I don’t know why, I used to think this guy was annoying waiting here every day at school, but now that I see it, I feel a little cute...
"Perhaps this is the last time we go this way with them? After all, all feasts come to an end."
I thought to myself.
Walking onto the Two Rivers Bridge, there were more and more people around, and they were all talking loudly. Very lively.
There are also many parents, probably all accompanying their children to receive the admission notice.
After all, this is considered a major event in life!
Arrived at the school gate.
You can see various display boards arranged here, and there are also three red good news stickers on the stone pillars next to the school gate.
Students admitted to the three key high schools in the county are on the bronze list.
Students admitted to key high schools in the city are on the silver list.
Students who get admitted to famous schools in the city are on the gold list!
Not surprisingly, I saw Yao Nan and I in the first row of the gold list...
"As expected of my boss, he's awesome! He can fight well, his academic performance is pretty good, and he's handsome too."
Wang Dachun stared at my photo on the gold list and flattered me.
I laughed and said a little narrowly.
"I remember three years ago, when junior high school just started, who was here at the school gate deliberately trying to bully me, a poor student from the countryside?"
Well……
Wang Dachun was immediately embarrassed, scratched his head, and giggled.
"Tablemate! Wu Zhong!"
Yao Nan suddenly waved to me in the crowd next to him, then pushed aside other people and ran next to me. Her little face was flushed, probably because she was surrounded by many people praising and congratulating her.
I was just about to say hello to her when a familiar voice suddenly came from behind me.
A voice that makes me incredible, I can't believe she is here!
"Ah Chong, the photo in your happy announcement was well chosen. I look at it as a teacher and you seem to be in good spirits."
What? !
I turned my head sharply and my eyes widened.
