Lin Yu decided to take the postgraduate entrance exam, which Gu Yunze supported. Gu Henglin and Li Huizhu were even happier, as they would have a high-achieving student in their family from now on.

Lin Shengli and Shen Zhinian, who work in the research department, understand the importance of knowledge and support her decision.

Lin Yi had already entered Beicheng University by this time, and after hearing about his sister's situation, he said, "I also want to take the postgraduate entrance exam in the future."

He studied physics and has already started participating in various competitions, which makes him realize the necessity of further study even more.

Therefore, Lin Yu's decision to take the postgraduate entrance examination was supported by everyone and even gained followers.

As students enter their senior year and second semester, there are fewer classes available, allowing them time to adapt to life in the real world.

Most people have already been assigned to work units; only a small number are either preparing to study abroad or preparing for postgraduate entrance exams.

Lin Yu had a lot of time to spend studying every day.

She felt as if she had returned to the time before the college entrance examination, where she did nothing but study every day.

She decided to take the postgraduate entrance exam too late. If she had prepared earlier, she should have started studying on her own in her junior year of college.

Fortunately, she wanted to apply to Professor Wang's graduate program, and Professor Wang told her that as long as she passed the written exam, the interview would be no problem.

So Lin Yu focused on overcoming the difficulties in her studies.

Soon it was time for the written exam, and Lin Yu finally passed the school's admission score.

Although her score wasn't very high, she had done her best.

This intense studying kept her mind active every day, and once the exams were finally over, she began to clear her head.

After lying at home for two days, Lin Yu began to think about something else.

......

That evening, when Gu Yunze reached for something from the bedside table, Lin Yu stopped him.

He had reached his limit, his back stretched like a bow at its maximum, and the veins on his forehead bulging.

He thought Lin Yu was teasing him as usual, and said breathlessly, "Xiao Yu, give it to me quickly."

Lin Yu whispered something in his ear.

"real?"

"Um."

"Okay, here I come."

For the first time, there was no barrier between the two, and the experience was extraordinary.

Gu Yunze wanted to do it a few more times, but Lin Yu was too tired and quickly turned over, rolled up in the blanket, and refused.

In the darkness, the man sighed, helplessly turned around and hugged his wife tightly, and the two fell asleep together.

In 1982, Lin Yu began her postgraduate studies under Professor Wang.

Professor Wang's research team is still working, but now their main focus is on the economic research of the area surrounding Beicheng.

The South is developing faster and faster, but the economic structure of the North still has some unreasonable and lagging aspects.

The pace of development in the North and the South differs greatly.

Professor Wang hopes to develop the economy in the north in a way that suits local conditions.

Lin Yu and his classmates followed him around, often going out to investigate the market.

I spend most of my time at school writing reports.

Graduate students have more free time than undergraduates. Lin Yu's home is near the school, so she can go home almost every day.

When she has time, she will leave the school, go to the market to buy groceries, and then go home to cook.

As I walked to the door, I saw a letter in the mailbox.

The sender was Song Meili, and the address was in a small village in the southwest region.

After graduating from teachers' college, she could have been assigned to work as a teacher in the local area, but she resolutely signed up to teach in a rural area.

Zhou Huanan did not want to live under his parents' wings, and he did not want his parents to interfere in his marriage.

Therefore, he chose to be sent down to the grassroots level for training.

He went to the southwest region.

In the letter Song Meili sent, she said that they planned to get married locally.

Because of the long distance and the fact that their friends are not in the area, they are not planning to hold a wedding.

They've only gotten their marriage certificate yet; I'll treat them to a meal when I get back to Beicheng.

Her happiness and joy can be seen between the lines.

Lin Yu smiled knowingly.

Who would have thought that Song Meili, who once only wanted a better life and someone to rely on, would now be able to endure working in such a poor place?

Can someone really give up a comfortable life for love?

Before she left, she asked Lin Yu if what she was doing was right or wrong.

Lin Yu couldn't give the real answer, because the answer wasn't with her, but with Song Meili.

Lin Yu only told her, "It's up to people to make things happen."

Smart people, once they've made a decision, won't ask whether it's worth it or whether it's right; instead, they'll focus on making the most of their lives.

Even if I go to the countryside, can't this experience have a positive effect on me?

Over the years, under Lin Yu's influence, Song Meili's mind has become increasingly clear.

She thought of going to the countryside to teach, firstly to see the level of education in underdeveloped areas and secondly to help children see a wider world.

Secondly, the two years of teaching in rural areas will enhance her resume.

Thirdly, it was for Zhou Huanan.

Zhou Huanan refused his parents' help and gave up an easier path to promotion in order to be with her. He had already given so much, and Song Meili felt that she should do something in return.

After figuring it out, Song Meili knew what she had to do.

Once they arrived there, being unfamiliar with the place, the two felt a sense of mutual dependence.

Their relationship continued to blossom until Zhou Huanan took the initiative to propose.

They have already obtained their marriage certificate locally and have now built their own little home in the village.

In her letter, Song Meili also mentioned the local customs and traditions, and the adorable children.

It can be seen that although her living conditions there were not good, she was very rich in spirit.

Lin Yu put the letter away, intending to write a reply to her later that evening.

Just as Gu Yunze finished cooking, he brought Qiao Feng home.
