In the summer of 2000, with hot sunshine and irritable weather, groups of students waved their hands with their send-off classmates and embarked on a journey home. The school is on the remote Wuqi Road, and the crops in the farmland outside the wall grow airtight, as if they are covered with a dark green coat. With a hint of greenness, our hearts are full of depression and confusion, and we have graduated this year!
The employment situation is grim, the future is not optimistic, the students who have not found a suitable job for several months in advance, no longer insist, choose to temporarily return to their hometown to see, hoping to use the power of the family to find employment, this walk, many people have never returned to the city.
The years are hurried, twenty years have passed, I don't know if they still remember their alma mater? Remember that bumpy 113 bus to the suburbs?
When I think of that summer, my mood is gray, sad, lonely and struggling.
I chose to stay, like a bird that had just been released from its cage, and had long been looking forward to flying high, but when it really flew, there was no direction.
I remember the last time the class had dinner, it was a restaurant not far from the school, a table for boys and a table for girls.
Led by Zhao Zhao, the girls opened their hearts and drank and sang. One of the most popular songs at that time was "Norwegian Forest", which one of my fellow countrymen sang best, over and over again. We all know that this is the Last Supper, some students cry when they sing and sing, and some students cry and cry and get drunk!
When he walked out of the hotel, Da Yong proposed to line up and sing songs to return to school, and give full play to the momentum of the graduating class. Everyone walked into the school, unfinished, could not bear to leave, actually went all the way back to the classroom, today I think it is strange, back to the classroom for what? The impression of the classroom students has never been so complete, haha!
During the following summer vacation, the students walked away, the empty campus, the empty dormitory, when Da Yong and I sent away the last pair of Qinhuangdao classmates, the whole dormitory building was only me.
My persistence waited for the god of luck, was admitted to a real estate company, I remember when the company executives sat there in a circle to ask questions, fortunately I had the experience of having a school magazine editor-in-chief at school, not afraid of the stage. The answer was decent, but I didn't understand it, and I didn't ask too many questions about treatment, benefits, etc., and walked out. After an hour of interviewing and getting the admission result, and after allocating accommodation, I got on the bus back to school to carry my luggage.
Looking at the empty dormitory, there is a lot of reluctance in my heart. The noise of the past reflects the loneliness at this moment, the emotions are very complicated, I want to cry, but there are no tears, because after being lonely for a long time, the heart will be fragile!
I turned and walked to the noodle shop in front of the school, asked for a bowl of knife-cut noodles, a plate of cold dishes and a bottle of beer, and sat down to drink. The owner of the shop who knew each other came over to say hello and said: Brother is coming, is the job found?
I smiled and said, "Look good, it's a real estate company."
The boss patted me on the shoulder and said: Yes, brother, the future is immeasurable!
I smiled and said, "I hope so!" The company is far away, the opportunity to come back is less, and today is the last time I live in the school."
"So we have to have a bar?" Celebrate", said the shopkeeper, enthusiastically opening a bottle of beer and serving another hot dish, and we sat down and drank.
It's nice that I don't have to drink alone, and after a few bottles of beer, I have said a lot of words of wishing each other. After pushing and letting the checkout, I was ready to go back to the dormitory to clean up, and the boss sent me out of the door and said, "I will often come to see it in the future, don't forget us!" ”
I promised, "Of course, but your little shop must thrive every day!"
"Definitely", the boss also smiled and waved at me!
Back on campus, I went to the empty teaching building, went to the locked classroom, turned around, and looked at my desk through the doors and windows, which is to leave one last memory! Then head back to your dorm room and start packing, a few change of clothes, a few favorite books, and what else ---? Yes, there is also Dayong left me with a bicycle that I don't know how many hands, and I need to use it to pack my luggage, cross the whole city, and rush to a new life.
In the morning, I woke up alone, washed myself slowly, and cleaned my dorm room slowly. I took a look at the bottom bunk where many days I lived alone, and said in my heart, Goodbye, my brother--!
Then he locked the door, walked downstairs silently, and handed the key to the housekeeper aunt. Packed up my luggage, walked to the gate, looked back at my school building, the playground, the teaching building, and always felt that there was something left to take away, what was it? Now that I think about it, it should be the period of youth that can never be taken away, right?
Our male classmates with excess energy play basketball in the playground, always hoping that the girl they like can stop and look at it a few times; do not sleep at night, climb over the wall to buy wine outside the school, and the brothers on the upper bunk chew peanuts and rice to eat squeezed vegetables, and drink very enjoyably; fat brother asked me to ride across the entire Five-Seven Road, go to the video hall to see movies with "color", wait until 12 o'clock to start the show, people have been sleepy and lean forward, what taste has not been seen, back is already Yixing Shan, those beautiful or astringent fragments of that year, so forever left in the memory!
I rode slowly on the road, just a few days ago, still at this door, I sent away my classmates one by one, boys, girls, and brothers who slept on my bunk. Now, I'm leaving alone, and I'm really feeling something else in my heart---
When I step out of school, even if I say goodbye to my student days once and for all, what will happen to the adult world? I rode through the anti-aircraft artillery brigade, forestry school, 57th Road, Shigang Street, Zhonghua Avenue.... From time to time, the sight flashes of running soldiers; the three trampolines of the sudden passengers; and the 113 road that rushes by. Silently thinking about his heart, riding very slowly, starting at ten o'clock in the morning, he actually rode for an afternoon before coming to the company.
When I broke through the night and walked to Donggang Road, I saw the lights on the street, and my heart was slightly steady, and I finally reached my destination. Come to the new dormitory, say hello to the new roommate, and how many unknown stories will happen in the future? There is anticipation, there is wandering---
As a member of the president's secretary class, after more than half a year of training in the company, he learned training programs such as official writing, automobile driving and even military sports boxing, and was assigned to various positions, from the office to the front-line business. Slowly adapted to the development of the company, adapted to the rhythm of urban life, and like many peers, found a partner, married, had children, and took root in this city.
Time flies, there have been glories and depressions, but it always feels immature, and twenty years have passed in a hurry. I remember that when I first graduated, I agreed that I would organize a classmate association every few years.
But now, either the world is north and south, or things are not human, it is not easy to get together again, only to leave an unforgettable period of green onion years in the heart, occasionally idle and chew a little, it seems to be back to yesterday---
