I'm waiting for you at the entrance of the 70s, you blacken the 'stars', and we'll go play together~ [Timid and delicate little sweetheart vs cold and evil big villain]1. Xu Nian ha...
The notice has arrived
"Is anyone home? The university admission letter has arrived!" the postman shouted at the top of his voice.
Xu Nian was a step slower than Xu's mother. If it weren't for today's incident, she wouldn't have known that Ms. Lu Mei was so fast.
"At home...at home..." replied Xu's mother.
Xu Nian chased after her until the postman confirmed that it was Xu Nian himself. Then he started to congratulate her, "This is your university admission letter. It was mailed from Beijing. You're in the first wave to receive the admission letter. I heard that all the schools this time are good. Congratulations on getting admitted."
Xu Nian swept away Xu Hongqi's reluctance to leave, hugged Xu's mother and jumped up and down, his heart filled with excitement. "Mom, I passed the exam this time, I really passed."
I didn’t understand Fan Jin’s madness when he passed the imperial examination before, but now I can completely empathize with him. Who understands the joy of hard work being rewarded?
She understands, she understands!
The postman saw the mother and daughter were excited and started to laugh too. He thought that if his own child was admitted to the capital, he would be even more open than them.
Mother Xu pressed her chest to cushion her emotions. After calming down for a while, she noticed the postman smiling at them. Her face flushed, and she suddenly remembered something. As she ran home, she said to him, "Comrade, wait a moment. I'll be right back."
Xu Nian giggled and kissed the notice, no longer complaining about her mysophobia or being disgusted by its dirtiness.
The neighbors were taking a break at noon when they heard a noise in the street. They came out to see what was happening and happened to see Xu Qinghua's little girl kissing the cardboard with a silly smile.
The lady next to Xu Nian asked in confusion, "Niannian, why are you not sleeping in the middle of the day? What are you doing on the street?"
The old man who lived in the house to Xu Nian's left asked with a choked voice, "Why is the postman here? Has your aunt's family sent you some goodies again?"
The young wife next door heard the noise and went out with a sullen face and said unhappily, "What are you doing? Can't you let me sleep?"
"Who stopped you from sleeping? We are talking on the street and it bothers you. If you have the guts to turn the street into your home, we will shut up immediately."
When the young wife saw Aunt Xu from next door come out, she was instantly suffocated by what she said.
Lv Meicai had no time to pay attention to her. She generously gave the postman a can of yellow peaches, smiling from ear to ear, "Comrade, thank you for delivering the good news to my family today. Please accept this can. I appreciate your hard work in making this trip."
The people around were shocked because what he was holding was a can.
The postman is also not vague. Everyone in the bureau is working hard to deliver the congratulatory messages. What are they looking for? It's just to feel the "joy" at this moment. This is different from delivering things at other times. This is not considered exploiting the people. It is about sharing in the joy and good luck.
No matter where the can is placed at this time, it is considered heroic. He has achieved a good life and has lived a few points. "Comrade, serve the people!"
After finishing his official remarks, he continued, "Then I'll accept it. The main thing is that my child wants to share in your daughter's happiness." At this point, he gave a thumbs-up and said, "Your child is really promising. I don't know how you raised him. I'm really envious." Seeing that the people around him couldn't wait to ask, he knew what was going on. He said, "Comrade, it's getting late. I'm going to deliver the good news to the next family."
Xu Nian and his mother said goodbye to someone. There was a lot of noise outside the wall. The other members of the Xu family simply did not sleep and came out following the noise. When Xu Fengjian saw that it was in front of his own house, his heart skipped a beat and he came out immediately.
Seeing his mother and younger sister squeezed in the middle, talking about something with a smug look on their faces, he felt relieved. At least nothing would happen at home as soon as his father went out.
Xu Fengkang was sound asleep and was woken up by his wife. The couple also saw his mother and younger sister. Without saying a word, Xu's wife squeezed over and asked, "Mom, what happened to you?"
Xu's mother had just boasted about her daughter being admitted to Capital University, and when she heard her second daughter-in-law ask again, she immediately boasted to others again.
"Nothing, just reading that the admission letter came down, she was admitted to Renmin University. I was thinking that we could just get together as a family, but now that the big guy happened to hear it, I couldn't hide it."
Xu Nian added, "I've also told everyone that I was able to get into university thanks to my parents' tolerance. If I were born into someone else's family, they would have sent me home to work in the fields the first time I failed the exam. Luckily, I'm only 18 this year, so I'm not too old to go to university."
Xu Nian felt really proud today. She and Xu's mother sang the same tune and they both vented the grievances that the family had suffered for the past three years. It was really refreshing.
Thanks to the help of someone who came to help, Mrs. Xu was delighted to hear the news. She hurriedly said to her husband, "Fengkang, go to the old courtyard and tell our grandparents the good news. Our family has a college student who is going to the capital."
Xu Fengkang was really happy for his sister. He said "ah" and ran away without saying a word.
The people around her were envious and jealous, and the more they acted like this, the happier Xu's mother felt. After three years of anxiety, it was finally her turn to be laughed at by others. She didn't know that many people were betting behind her back that her daughter would not pass the exam this year. This time, she was slapped in the face.
Xu's mother simply stayed at the door and asked Xu Nian to open the mail and take a look.
Of course Xu Nian agreed. She had been away from home to go to school that year, and her family had probably been bullied a lot. She simply said, "Okay!"
"Mom, you come and tear it down. I'll be happy if you do."
Xu Ersao stood beside her mother-in-law, and she was even more thoughtful. "Mom, I think Dad will be back soon. Why don't you wait for him and take it apart together?"
When Xu's mother and her daughter-in-law looked at each other, they immediately understood each other's thoughts due to their years of tacit understanding. The more they held back, the more curious others became and wanted to see.
As expected, people are like this. Listening to what Lu Mei said, everyone knew that she was making a veiled criticism, but they just didn't leave. They just wanted to see what was inside the thin cardboard.
Xu Nian is from the back street. There are not many people living in the village of Back Street and they are relatively scattered. Even with just a few families gathered together, the conversation is lively and the accents have all changed.
In the past, people said Xu Nian was too lazy and never saw her working in the fields. Now, they changed their tone and said that they had long seen that she was someone who could do big things.
In the past, people said that Xu Nian was uneducated because she didn't know how to say hello when she met someone. But now, she said to Xu's mother, "Your daughter is quiet and talented."
In particular, those who once lectured Xu's mother not to spoil her daughter too much now compliment her, saying that her daughter has a promising future and that she should enjoy a good life in the future.
Xu Nian and her mother laughed so hard that she thought, no wonder some people say that when you succeed, everyone around you suddenly becomes a good person.
Xu Ersao looked back at the figure of her uncle entering the house and curled her lips. Her brother Fengkang was not as thoughtful as his brother. He must have called her sister-in-law when he went in. Fortunately, she behaved well. Her mother-in-law had praised her several times. It didn't matter whether her sister-in-law came or not.
She was right, Xu Fengjian really went to call his wife.
"Don't sleep, wake up, wake up."
"What's wrong?" Mrs. Xu was a little unhappy when her husband woke her up.
Xu Fengjian was also helpless. He dared to say that if he didn't wake her up today, she would definitely make a fuss when she returned to the room after she knew that the second son's wife had been in the spotlight today.
"The mailman delivered my younger sister's college acceptance letter. Everyone is talking at the gate, and my younger sister-in-law has been out for a while.
He saw his daughter-in-law sit up instantly.
"Why did you wake me up just now? Mom must be unhappy about it. I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go there quickly." She said as she casually fixed her hair twice.
Mrs. Xu's heart sank as she walked out of the room. She seemed to hear the voices of her father-in-law and grandparents. Doesn't this mean that she is the last one to arrive except for the children?
This time she was not going out by herself, so she ran back and grabbed her husband, then hurried out again.
Mother Xu was showing off to Father Xu, who had just sent the red flag out, for the third time in public about her daughter's admission to Capital University. She was so happy to see that even the old man, who had never cared much about his granddaughters, looked happy.
It was during this time that Mrs. Xu slipped over to her mother-in-law. She first congratulated her sister-in-law, and then casually explained that there were no adults at home and the children were sleeping, and she had just been busy taking care of the children and had not come out.
Xu Nian laughed, "It's okay." She didn't care. There were too many people congratulating her today, and one less would not make a difference.
Mrs. Xu Er rolled her eyes, which was seen by Mrs. Xu Da. She was angry at her second son for being too sharp, but fortunately her mother-in-law looked very happy, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
But before I could calm down, I heard yesterday say, "Old man, go home and catch a chicken and kill it. We'll have a nice meal tonight to celebrate."
Mrs. Xu looked at the people around her and swallowed back the words she wanted to ask her brother-in-law to lend a hand.
Xu's mother was well aware of the affairs between her two daughters-in-law. She didn't really care about these formalities, but she liked her second daughter-in-law more because she was capable.
As for Xu Qinghua, he was still depressed on the way to send Xu Hongqi back. He gave Hongqi money but Hongqi refused to take it. No matter how he thought about it, he felt that there was a gap between him and Hongqi. This made him feel uncomfortable, and he sighed all the way when no one was around.
Unexpectedly, he bumped into his father as soon as he arrived at the door of his house. Seeing that his parents were in high spirits, he asked them to get on the donkey cart. He learned from his parents that Nian Nian's notice had just been delivered home. A feeling of joy filled his head. It was just the distance from the front street to the back street, and soon a lot of people got on his donkey cart.
When he arrived at the door of his home and saw his wife and children waiting for him to open the notice, he felt like tears welled up in his eyes.
Witnessed by their family and neighbors, the Xu couple opened the cover of their admission letter together. When they saw the words "Renmin University" typed in gold, their eyes welled up.
Xu Nian sniffed and reached out to wipe their eyes. "Your daughter got into college, and you're still not happy? We need to smile more. You two should take good care of yourselves. I'm going to take you to the capital to watch the flag-raising ceremony and see the Chairman's portrait."
Xu Xiuman couldn't stand it, "You are such a grown man, you can't stand such a little thing."
It was a rare occasion for Xu Qinghua to talk back to his father. "Then you have no chance."
"Hey, I don't have a chance or you two are just not up to the task."
Xu Nian smirked and stabbed, "Originally, my grandfather could have done it too. It's not that he offended the girl himself and missed the opportunity."
Xu Xiuman had just thought his granddaughter was doing well, but now his eyes hurt just looking at her. He was the first to enter the courtyard and said to the people behind him, "Isn't it hot standing outside?"
At the old man's call, the family said goodbye to everyone and returned home. Xu Fengjian was the last to go in and lock the front door.
