National Beer

Bluestone slabs, red roofs, misty and rainy, is a different Qinwan.

Without the willow branch to wake Qin Dong, Qin Nan lifted the mosquito net and pinched her brother's nose, "Brother, brother, wake up, the college entrance examination..."

Qin Dong slept in a daze. He stretched out his hand and patted Qin Nan's head. This sister, she was more worried than herself.

"Brother, how are you preparing, don't be nervous..." Qin Nan opened Qin Dong's bag and took two more ink bottles. "Brother, do you want pure blue or gray blue?"

"Pure blue." Qin Dong climbed down from the bed and set up the folding bed. He looked at the weather outside. During these three days a year, there was no rain in Qin Bay or even the mountains and seas.

"Dadong, come over for dinner." Liu Zhi got up early and went into the kitchen, carefully preparing today's breakfast.

As soon as Qin Dong walked into the small kitchen, he smelled the scent of seafood and the aroma of chopped green onion. On this gloomy, humid and sultry morning, his appetite was greatly increased.

On the table, fermented bean curd, kelp shreds, celery and peanuts... all kinds of cold dishes, there is always no shortage at home, "I will fry two eggs, Dadong, you eat first, Xiaoju said that he is coming, I am afraid that... …"

Before he finished speaking, the colorful umbrella floated into the small courtyard, "Sister Zhi, I am up late, I will cook breakfast..." Du Xiaoju lifted the colorful plastic curtain and entered the kitchen, "Eggs, I will come Fry..."

She took the shovel in the hand of the willow branch and looked at Qin Dong again. Last night was too boring, and there was something in her heart. She was lying on the bed tossing and unable to fall asleep. When Du Xiaoshu knocked on the door outside the house, she hurriedly got up without her face. Washed and ran over.

"Are you not going to work today?" Qin Dong took a sip of the noodle soup and looked at the busy Du Xiaoju.

"No, I'm on leave..." Du Xiaoju quickly put the eggs on the plate, and sprinkled two spoons of sugar on it. She was more familiar with this kitchen than Qin Dong.

"Brother, I should have two eggs and one fried dough stick in the morning," Qin Nan insisted on squeezing in when the kitchen was too small. "That can give you a hundred points on the test."

"I don't believe it, I used to eat eggs every day..." The rain is getting heavier, Du Xiaoshu didn't even bring an umbrella, so he ran in in the rain, "Brother Dong, no matter what you eat, you can pass the exam!"

Qin Dong smiled. After eating a bowl of noodles, he went into the house and took out his schoolbag, checked the admission ticket and pen, and walked out of the yard.

"Brother Dong, I'll send you to you." Du Xiaoshu put on his raincoat and handed him a raincoat. Without the hood, it was too inconvenient for rainy days.

"Dadong, take your test..." Du Xiaoju and Liu Zhi leaned in front of the door in the rain and mist, and Du Xiaoju bit her lip and gently ordered.

"Well, I see." Qin Dong nodded heavily, smiled and waved, and waved to a neighbor in a courtyard before he walked out of the house.

"You drive these few days to see you Dongge." Du Yuan walked over with an umbrella in front of him, "Dadong, take your test... I dreamt about..." Du Yuan stopped talking, in fact he wanted to say What's more, he dreamed of Qin Shihuang. Just as Qin Shihuang wanted to tell him how Qin Dong was in the exam, he woke up.

"Dadong," the grandmother in the front yard walked over slightly with a walking stick in the heavy rain, "egg, take it, don't be hungry..."

"Grandma, I'm full..." Qin Dong smiled, but still took the eggs. The eggs are very hot and must have been steamed this morning.

"I know, this kid, take the exam. We don't have a college student in Zhongjiawa. You have to let grandma close her eyes and see what the university is growing..." The old grandma firmly grasped Qin Dong's hand.

"Go back." There were more and more people in the hutong. Under the gloomy sky, one hand was waving in the wind and rain, and one face was exhorting, "Take the test..."

"I see." Qin Dong got into the sidecar and Du Xiaoshu started the car. The car rushed into the rain and disappeared into the rain...

...

On the campus, the social atmosphere was good in the 1980s. The school drove to the 68th Middle School where the exam was taken. The red-painted slogans such as "Reading for the Rise of China", "Revitalize China, Everybody is Responsible", and the campus The green colors reflect each other, forming Qin Dong's color memory of the college entrance examination.

Qin Dong took the adult college entrance examination together with the general college entrance examination. There are three subjects in the college entrance examination, namely Chinese, mathematics and English. In addition to the above three subjects, the college entrance examination will also take another subject in physics and chemistry.

In this era, students are taking exams and no parents have asked for leave to accompany them. Looking outside the school gate, tricycles, buses, and walking people are waiting anxiously with umbrellas and raincoats.

Seeing the sling coming by, the crowd immediately cast a glance, "Brother Dong, I will go in with you later." Du Xiaoshu stopped the sling and said, "My dad asked me to follow you for three days."

The gate of the school was opened, and college entrance examination students poured into the campus like a tide. The two looked for a corridor in front of the building and sat down.

"Brother Dong, look at them, they are all reading, you should also take a look, you will not be happy and light." Feeling this tense and solemn atmosphere of college entrance examination, Du Xiaoshu has become very quiet now.

"No, Brother's gun is already very bright." Qin Dong was very confident. Through the dense crowd, he suddenly saw a familiar figure, looking down and reading, it was the broadcaster Liang Jingwen in the factory.

He just wanted to step forward to say hello, but suddenly felt a pain in his abdomen, "Paper."

The more I talked, the more pain in my abdomen seemed to get worse. His grandmother was greedy for cold last night. She wanted to rely on her health and ate iced watermelon, but he didn't expect something happened.

Sweating straight on his head, ran down twice, and a Venus appeared in front of him.

"Qin Dong?" Liang Jingwen finally raised her head from the book. She wanted to see if she knew anyone she knew, and happened to see Qin Dong.

"What's the matter with you?" After a few months of absence, Liang Jingwen was even fairer.

"Maybe, the stomach is broken." Qin Dong smiled bitterly.

"I'm holding Huoxiang Zhengqi Water, just right." Liang Jingwen untied her schoolbag decisively and took out two Huoxiang Zhengqi Waters, "Quickly, drink it and don't affect the exam."

It can only be this way, "What about you? Are there any more?"

"I, I'm okay," Liang Jingwen squeezed blushing, "drink quickly."

...

The bell rang for a while, Qin Dong finally sat in the classroom, his stomach still hurts, and the teacher had no choice but to follow him to the toilet.

In this terribly hot July, the hot dizzy July, the division of labor between the three teachers was broken by him. The other two teachers sprinkled water on the ground to cool down, and the other began to issue test papers.

After issuing the test papers, the invigilator kept using a basin of clean water to deliver cool and clean towels to the sweaty test takers. Qin Dong gratefully looked at this stranger teacher, and solemnly looked at his admission ticket again——

The admission ticket for the unified admission of colleges and universities in Shanhai Province in 1987, the certificate number is 2710245...

"Qin Dong..."

He solemnly wrote his name on the paper.
