Chapter 14 Mature
Before she left the school, Su Yingxue saw Li Mu at the door of the phone booth, thinking of what Li Mu said in the class today, she was a little flustered subconsciously.
A thought came to her mind: Is it possible that Li Mu was waiting for her, and deep down she wanted to ask Li Mu if he said he was going to take the National People's Congress, was it true.
I just didn't expect that, before he could leave the school, Li Mu suddenly ran away and disappeared.
Su Yingxue watched Li Mu run away, feeling a little lost in her heart, thinking to herself, with Li Mu's grades, it seems that the NPC exam is not enough. In the previous simulations, he scored about 580 points, and his grades were very stable. People's Congress, at least 630 points, right?
Analysis, Su Yingxue thinks that Li Mu is probably just a joke, right? Thinking like this, it feels weird and not very tasteful.
Li Mu headed into the big spider web bar and continued the development of Stone Tool Overlord. Within ten minutes, Zhao Kang also came.
After Zhao Kang sat down, he asked Li Mu, "Xiao Mu, how much did you estimate?"
"More than six hundred and twenty, how about you?"
"Fuck...really?"
"real."
"Li Mu, I thought about it seriously, and think we should break up our friendship."
"why?"
"People like me and you who are more handsome than me and whose grades are so much better than me, really can't play together, it hurts self-esteem too much."
"Stop talking nonsense, how much did you estimate?"
Zhao Kang hesitated for a moment, and then said a little embarrassedly: "If there is no accident, it will be four hundred and ninety to five hundred."
"I see your unconfident appearance. Four hundred and ninety-nine is probably hanging, and four hundred and ninety-nine may not be able to pass the three lines. If you don't absolutely grasp the three lines, you must be cautious when applying for volunteers."
Zhao Kang asked tentatively, "How about I apply for a better college in the province?"
Li Mu said: "Since you are willing to go to college, why not report to a city with development, what do you think of Yanjing?"
"Yanjing..." Zhao Kang scratched his head: "I am like this, what can I do in the capital?"
"Go to school, pick up girls, make money, and reach the pinnacle of life."
Zhao Kang hesitated for a while: "My parents probably won't let me go to college."
"Aren't you also unwilling to repeat it?" Li Mu forcedly asked, "Why did you not think about it when I said that I could earn enough tuition for you to go to university?"
Zhao Kang suddenly realized.
It turns out that his good brother has been making plans for him for a long time. He knows that 80% of the time he will not be able to get into an undergraduate degree, and he also knows that he has a completely opposite and irreconcilable conflict with his family's wishes, so he is equivalent to giving himself a choice. , It doesn't matter if you don't get into the undergraduate program, if you make money, it's the same with your own money to go to college.
Zhao Kang was moved, the two went out of the Internet cafe, and he asked for the last time: "Xiao Mu, can this thing really happen?"
"Really."
"Come on, Yanjing's junior college, I understand!"
Seeing that Zhao Kangjian had been persuaded by himself, Li Mu felt a lot more relieved, and continued to be busy developing the Stone Tool Overlord.
In the middle, Li Mu's QQ received a message. It was the head portrait of a penguin wearing a pink flower. After Li Mu clicked it, he was delighted to find that this little penguin with a pink flower was Su Yingxue.
He has always remembered Su Yingxue's screen name, which is the very simple English word Snow. Su Yingxue's QQ name has always been this name, and it has never been changed.
In his previous life, Li Mu's screen name was often changed, but his password was never changed. In this respect, he and Su Yingxue were somewhat complementary.
The message from Snow was: "How many points did you get for the college entrance examination?"
Dreaming: "Between 625 and 630."
Snow: "Really? So high? Don't lie to me."
Dreaming about: "Why are you lying to me, it's true."
Snow: "It would be great if it were true.
"
Seeing that Su Yingxue didn't seem to believe it, Li Mu asked, "How about you, how many points did you estimate?"
Snow: "Between 640-660."
Lee: "Congratulations, congratulations, you will definitely have no problem going to Renmin University!"
Snow: Hey, why did you suddenly change your screen name?
Lee: The previous one was too vulgar.
Snow: I don't think so, it's pretty good.
Li Mu was about to reply when Snow sent a message: "My mother told me to go out, let's talk another day!"
Seeing that pink penguin turned black and white and sank into a list of offline friends, Li Mu felt a little empty in his heart. After half a minute of pain, he re-invested in the development of the plug-in.
At half past five in the afternoon, Li Mu saved the progress and said to Zhao Kang, "I'm going home for dinner today, how about you?"
Zhao Kang rubbed his eyes: "I also go home to eat."
...
In my impression, the first time Li Mu drank baijiu with his father was after he graduated from university.
At that time, he decided to go to Yanjing for development. He left home and walked more than 1,000 kilometers away. At that time, there was no high-speed rail, and the air ticket from the provincial capital to Yanjing was not affordable for ordinary people. For more than ten hours, the parents were not very happy to travel with their only son, but after thinking about it for a few days, the father still respected Li Mu's choice.
Li Mu and his father were both drunk that night. He still remembered that night, crying in his bed, swearing that he would make a difference in Yanjing, but in the first few years, his life was not much better than a dog, living in the basement, Living in a group of rented houses, constantly changing jobs, constantly moving to new homes, constantly being pitted by black intermediaries in the north...
In this life, because of Li Mu's rebirth, the first time the two baijiu glasses collided was brought forward by a full four years.
Dad Li took out a bottle of Luzhou Laojiao, which he had collected since the 1980s. It is said that there are only two bottles in total. Dad Li had planned to save one bottle for Li Mu's wedding day to drink, and the other bottle for the day when Li Mu had children.
But happy today, I opened a bottle in advance.
Both of them have a good amount of alcohol, and they are really happy. One bottle of wine is evenly divided, and no one is drunk. Instead, they let my mother run out and buy a few bottles of beer and drink it.
At the wine table, Li Mu said about the decision to apply for Renmin University. At first, parents were worried that it would be too risky, but Li Mu insisted that he was confident, so that Dad Li, who had drank a little wine, was in a better mood and said loudly. Said: "Okay! Young people must have the courage to let go! Dad supports you!"
After three rounds of drinking, Li Mu suddenly said, "Dad, the Xiling Coal Mine seems to be running out soon, right? The benefits are not as good as one day at a time. What are your plans?"
Dad Li glanced at Li Mu in surprise, and said with a haha: "It's okay, your dad has been a technician for more than 20 years, and he has a skill."
"There are very few coal mines in the south of the Yangtze River." Li Mu said lightly, "Haizhou only has the Xiling coal mine. If the Xiling coal mine fails, Dad, your technology will not have a chance in the south of the Yangtze River."
Most of the coal mines in Huaxia are located in the north. Coal mines in the south of the Yangtze River are rare. What Li Mu said is also very realistic. In his last life, after his father was laid off, he wanted to go to work in a coal mine in the northwest, but it was too far from home. Find a local construction team to help.
Dad Li is a more traditional man. His grandparents still live in the countryside, and his mother also has grandparents to take care of. He can't leave them behind and go to work in other places by himself.
Li Mu's words made Dad Li fall into contemplation. He found that his son really matured a lot overnight, and now he can discuss issues with himself as an adult.
"It is estimated that the Xiling Coal Mine will not last long." Dad Li was not going to tell Li Mu about this, but he also realized that he could not hide it from Li Mu now, "My mother and I may be laid off by the end of the year, but It’s not a big deal, my mother and I have laid-off wages, and if you work part-time, you will be able to retire within a few years.”
Li Mu smiled slightly: "Dad, I will find a way to earn all the expenses for my college education. You and Mom don't have to worry about it. The reason why I say this is that I don't want you to hide it from me after you are laid off, in order to make up for it. Make up for the shortfall in income, and then go out to work hard.”
Dad Li was stunned for a moment, and Mom Li asked in surprise: "You are talking nonsense, do you know how much it costs to go to college? I have calculated it with your dad. Going to college in the provincial capital, tuition and miscellaneous expenses, living expenses, coming home, etc. Tolls, I’m afraid I won’t be able to get down without 50,000 yuan in four years, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to get down without 60,000 to 70,000 yuan to go to Yanjing!”
Li Mu said, "I will find a way. Now the Internet is very popular, and many people have made a lot of money. I have been doing research in my spare time, and I think I can do it too."
"What network?" Dad Li frowned: "The Internet? Is that the one you paid to play in Internet cafes?"
"Yeah." Li Mu nodded.
"Isn't that sending money to Internet cafes?"
Li Mu smiled and said, "When you give money to an Internet cafe, what you send is the usage fee of the machine and the network. To make money is to make other people's money online. This is not a contradiction."
"Don't be fooled, there are liars everywhere these days." Li Ma obviously didn't believe it.
Li Mu also wanted to be vaccinated, so he didn't say it with certainty, so he smiled and said, "Aiya, it doesn't cost anything anyway, I'll try it, if it works, it's fine, it's nothing more than a little internet fee."
"That's true." Dad Li took a sip of wine and said to Li Mu: "Anyway, this summer vacation, you can do whatever you want. If you need money, you can find your parents. Although our family doesn't have much money, at least you will pay for your tuition and living expenses in the first year. It's okay, the rest of the parents will find a way."
Li Mu didn't say much, nodded slightly, poured a glass of beer, touched it with his father, and drank it.
