MTL - Pass Through 80s: A Notoriety-Chapter 1 eccentric parents

  Chapter 1 Eccentric Parents

   July 14th.

  Facing the drizzle, Ji Ling jumped off the Jiefang truck.

  In mid-July, the summer temperature in H Province was not high, and it rained for five consecutive days, and the temperature dropped sharply.

   A gust of wind blew, and Ji Ling's drenched body couldn't help shivering.

  Holding tightly the package wrapped in plastic cloth in her arms, she quickly walked into the hotel behind her classmates.

  There is no examination room in Bei County, the school rented a truck, and pulled the 18 students taking the college entrance examination into Beishi one day in advance.

  The school found a hotel in advance near the examination room. There were eight bunk beds in one room, plus the principal and teacher, and three rooms were booked.

   "Ji Ling, aren't you going to your grandpa's house? Your sister will also take the college entrance examination this year, right?" Tian Jing poked her head out and looked at the upper bunk.

  Ji Ling only answered the previous question, "The exam is tomorrow, I want to review the knowledge points again, and go after the exam."

   "You are unlucky enough. Repeated for two years, and the total score of English is counted as 100 points."

Ma Hui took the words, "Many of us are at a disadvantage. Last year, the total English score was 70 points, but this year it has reached 100 points. Compared with schools in the city, they learn English in junior high school, and we only learn it in high school. We all suffer."

  Tian Jing, Ma Hui and Ji Ling belong to the same family courtyard, and their parents are both workers of the agricultural machinery company.

The original owner was arrogant and felt that grandpa was the old leader of the construction institute, so she never interacted with people in the family's courtyard. After Ji Ling passed through, she had a gentle and quiet personality. Tian Jing and Ma Hui contacted each other a few times, and they also had contact with Ji Ling.

  The conversation of the three aroused the voices of several other girls in the room.

  You said one sentence to another, and started talking in a hurry.

   Ji Ling on the upper bunk stared at the book in her hand, her mind was a little empty.

  Even though it’s been half a month since I traveled to this body, sometimes it still feels like a dream.

  After Ji Ling was killed by a car, she passed through the body of a person with the same name and surname. From a woman in the new era of the 20th century, she became an unfilial daughter who repeated her exams for the college entrance examination and made troubles for her family.

  What subverted Ji Ling's views even more was that the college entrance examination was still a few months away. The original owner didn't want to take the college entrance examination, but wanted to enter the city's architectural institute. Her father went to beg her father-in-law Xu's family for her, but he didn't even enter the family home. He fell seriously ill after a day of rain, and the Xu family also issued a message that Ji Ling was not allowed to go to Xu's house again. Yes, Ji Ling came through at this time.

  Ji Ling is a pragmatic person. She firmly believes that no matter what age she is in, reading can change her destiny. During the past three months, she doesn't care about Mother Zhong's ignorance, and uses the shortest time to pick up the things in the book.

Speaking of which, she was the number one student in liberal arts in the college entrance examination in 1984, and she was deeply impressed by the college entrance examination questions in 1983. Besides, she founded a college entrance examination training school after graduating from university. Be prepared, don't be nervous.

  In the evening, the principal and the teacher took their 18 students to the restaurant next to the hostel to eat beef noodles. After dinner, they went outside the examination room to get acquainted, and then went back to the hostel early to rest.

The three-day college entrance examination in 1983, the first day was Chinese in the morning, chemistry and geography in the afternoon, and there was no mistake in the knowledge reviewed by Ji Ling. The second day was mathematics in the morning, and politics and biology in the afternoon. Physics history, afternoon English, these she passed easily.

  She was in the same examination room as Tian Jing, and the two walked out together.

  After the college entrance examination, everyone dared to discuss the answers.

Tian Jing looked disheartened, "The seventh question in English used the Chinese characters given to complete the sentences in English, but I didn't make any of them. The eighth question read and filled in the lyrics, and I was also confused. The fourth question changed sentence patterns. No, the first question is based on the vowels."

  Ma Hui also ran over to discuss with Tian Jing.

  At this time, Ji Ling heard someone calling her.

  The young man was standing across the street, wearing a white shirt with rolled up sleeves, blue khaki pants, and green rubber shoes on his feet.

  After looking at the clothes, her eyes fell on the other person's face again. She had a square face with big eyes, and she looked handsome.

  But, I don’t know.

   "Ji Ling, it's your elder brother." Tian Jing and Ma Hui beside him recognized each other.

  Ji Ling: .

  ——

  After more than 20 minutes, the college entrance examination students dispersed, and the two brothers and sisters were still standing on the side of the road where Ji Jianhua had just been waiting.

"I didn't come back until noon today from a business trip. I didn't answer my dad's call when I went to the factory." Ji Jianhua first explained why he appeared at this time, and his tone was cold, "I just want to go home today. Where are your things?" ?Let's go together."

  Ji’s family has three children, Zhong Jianhua is the eldest, 23 years old this year, repairing cars in a metal repair shop, Ji Ling is the second, and next to him is a 19-year-old Ji Ke who was raised by his grandfather when he was three years old.

  The original owner was aggressive, but always acted like a monster when he had nothing to do. Ji Jianhua preferred to raise a sensible second sister at his grandfather's house outside the city.

  He works in the city, and as the grown-up of the family, he will naturally not hide the family affairs from him.

  So the relationship between the brother and sister is not very good, even when something happens, Ji Jianhua directly stands by the second sister without asking the reason.

  Ji Ling refused in disguise, "Brother, the principal said that everyone will go to take graduation photos together, and then go back together by truck."

  Ji Jianhua still said, "Then I'll go together after you take the photo."

   "Okay." Ji Ling didn't refute any more.

  Although she didn't understand why she didn't like her and insisted on going with her, Ji Ling didn't ask any further questions.

   Afterwards, Ji Ling brought her elder brother to join the crowd. The graduation photo was taken at a photo studio across the street. The principal and teacher sat in the middle, with girls on both sides and male students in the back row.

  After the filming was over, some of the close classmates took pictures alone, and Ji Ling and her classmates were not close, so they only took a photo with Ma Hui and Tian Jing. When the money was paid, Ji Jianhua had already paid for Ji Ling.

  Ji Ling thought that although this big brother didn't have a good relationship with her, he still looked like a big brother, so it was okay.

When leaving home, Ji's father gave Ji Ling ten yuan, minus one yuan per day for staying in the hotel, six cents for a bowl of beef noodles, three cents for a bun for breakfast, and three cents for a bowl of soy milk. There was a "huge sum" of one yuan and fifty cents left.

You must know that Ji's father's monthly salary is only 48.6 yuan, and Ji Ling will be given 10 yuan for the three-day exam, which is already a lot of money. Some of the students who came out this time are not in good condition, and they all bring their own dry food, except for living in a hostel. , did not spend a penny.

  Ji Ling sighed, it seems that in any era, making money is a big deal.

  She sighed, and Ji Jianhua misunderstood, "It's fine if you don't do well in the exam. The watch factory is recruiting workers this year. It's easy for you to get in after graduating from high school."

   "Let's talk about it at that time." Ji Ling said perfunctorily, without further explanation.

  Ji Jianhua drives a car in the factory. Although he repairs cars in the factory, he usually travels to other places very hard, and he often travels on business. This time he went home and borrowed a car from the factory, and the factory agreed.

  Bei County is not big, Sitiao Street, Ji's father runs sales in Fuhe Agricultural Machinery Distribution Company, so Ji's family lives in the Fuhe Family Hospital behind the distribution company.

   Came from the city to the county at around five o'clock in the afternoon, and it was almost nine o'clock when the brother and sister arrived home.

  Ji Ling was the last one to leave. One second before, she was listening to Xu Fang talking to her son, "Jianhua is back." The next second, the atmosphere changed.

   Just listen to a 'click'.

  Ji Ling looked up.

  Xu Fang threw the sorghum-made broom heavily at the door, gave her a hard look, and turned around to enter the room.

"Your mother had a few quarrels with customers in the store today. She is in a bad mood. It's not right to target you." Ji's father who heard the movement ran out of the house, holding a cooking shovel in his hand, and greeted his son with a smile He and his daughter entered the room, "Xiao Ling, come in quickly, Dad made you braised pork."

  Seeing Ji's father use "you" to paint Taiping.

  Ji Ling thought of her own life. She was also an eccentric parent. Fortunately, there is a person in this family who really loves the original owner.

   Ji’s house has three rooms, with a kitchen in the middle and a bedroom on each side. However, when the children of Ji’s family grow up, there is a small north room in the back for the children to live in, and one of them belongs to Ji Ling.

   In the main house in front, Ji Yong and his wife live in the east house, and the west house is reserved for Ji Ke, the youngest daughter who doesn’t come home often and lives in Xu’s family.

  The house is not soundproof, and when the door is closed, Xu Fang’s voice in the front room can still be heard.

"I just said you can't get used to it. The more you get used to it, the less decent you are. You repeated the college entrance examination for two years, and you were going to join the art troupe when you were about to take the exam. Your father has never bowed his head in front of your grandpa in these years. It was the first time he came to ask for help because of her, but he ended up even going to the door. We didn’t even go in, and it rained all day at the gate of the family’s courtyard. We were ashamed, and we thought about it. It’s just a way out. You can see that she didn’t make a lot of noise when she came back today, and you can guess that you didn’t pass the exam without asking.”

   "Mom, don't be angry, I've read about this, and Reiko is much more sensible." At least Ji Jianhua discovered this through observation all the way back.

"Forget it, I get angry when I mention her. She is here to collect debts." Her son only came back once in a few months, and Xu Fang didn't want to make a fuss about the little Hades. After looking at it, "I'm thin, so I didn't rest on a business trip, okay? No, tell the factory, let someone else go on a business trip in the future."

   "Mom, it's good to go on a business trip. You can see the outside world. You don't know how fast the south is developing. Take a look at what I bought for you."

   "How much does it cost?"

   "It's not expensive, it's cheaper in the south, and I get a monthly salary."

   "Spending money indiscriminately, I don't know how hard you work. Mom didn't see any good things when she was young, and she is not allowed to buy again in the future."

   "During these few business trips, my colleagues and I returned some things and resold them. Now I have money."

  While the family was having dinner, Ji Ling saw the gold ring on Xu Fang's ring finger.

  But because of her appearance, Xu Fang's face became tense again.

  Ji Ling has no feelings for the original owner's family, so their attitude will not affect her. She eats quietly, and when she goes to college, she can naturally leave Ji's house and live the life she wants.

   "Eat more meat, you like sweet food, so you put more sugar on purpose." Ji Yong put a piece of braised pork in his daughter's bowl.

   "Thank you Dad." Ji Ling smiled.

  After dinner, Ji Ling helped Ji Yong clean up the table and planned to go back to her hut, but Ji Yong called her to the east room.

   This is something to say, otherwise Ji Yong wouldn't let her stay with Xu Fang for a long time.

After the family of four sat down, Xu Fang said, "Prepare for the past few days. The zipper factory is recruiting workers. If you graduate from high school, you can get a clerical job in the factory. You can work with peace of mind after work. Don't think about what you have. "

  It's a commonplace, for half a month, Ji Ling can hear such words every day, she doesn't want to say more.

  The processing method is also simple, one word: drag.

   Then he said as usual, "Let's talk about it then."

  Xu Fang's face turned black from anger.

  She was born in an intellectual family and received higher education. When she was young, she followed Xu's mother as a singer in the city art troupe because of her sweet voice.

Back then, when Xu Fang went to the countryside to perform, she fell in love with the handsome Ji Yong, but Ji Yong was just an ordinary worker. Xu Fang's parents disagreed, so she cut off contact with her parents and married from Beishi to Beixian, a small county. A department store recruited workers, and she was admitted as a salesperson.

  The original owner's appearance combined the advantages of his parents, pure and clean, with a pair of red phoenix eyes that seemed to be forever covered with mist, and his voice followed Xu Fang even more.

The original owner had a sharp and strong temper before, so people ignored her voice. After Ji Ling passed through, her temperament was already gentle and quiet. As a result, her voice became sweet and soft, and when she smiled, there were two corners of her mouth A small dimple, with a kind of cuteness.

  In the past, the mother and daughter were incompatible with each other, but now they can't quarrel. Xu Fang only feels that the evil fire in her heart is more intense.

  Finally, he choked out a foul word: Get lost.

  End of conversation for tonight.
