An ordinary little story

If a countryman wants to make a career, he has three options: one is to be a soldier, the other is to study, and the third is to do business. Li Mingliang initially chose to study. He was the third eldest child in his family, with two older brothers. Both brothers refused to bother studying, preferring to work hard in the fields. So when Li Mingliang said he wanted to study and go to college, his parents were so happy that they almost shed tears and tightened their belts to save money for him to go to school. When his mother was pouring oil for cooking on the stove, she pressed the mouth of the oil pot with her thumb, letting a little bit of vegetable oil drip down her thumb like a thread, and then stopped quickly. The whole family munched on the oily moldy dried vegetables and didn't feel sad at all. On the contrary, they were quite proud. According to Li Mingliang's mother, our family, Mingliang, is studying to go to college and will become an official in the future, so our good days are coming. Li Mingliang took the college entrance examination for the first time, and his score was 50 or 60 points behind.
