Sheng Anning has transmigrated—no golden fingers, no personal dimensional space, and worst of all, she's a notorious, married woman with a tarnished reputation.
She battles family bulli...
Sheng An Ning realized that she was a little too ostentatious. After all, in the examination room, she heard many people sighing. It was easy for her, but it was still difficult for those who had been away from school for a long time.
She said so arrogantly just now, which could easily cause public outrage. She quickly covered her mouth, pulled Zhou Shixun's sleeve and left here. After walking a distance, she said happily: "Did I tell you that the questions these two days are very simple, especially today's chemistry, I can get a perfect score."
As he said this, he tried to straighten his chest like a proud elementary school student.
Zhou Shixun's eyes flashed with a smile and he nodded: "Well, I believe you can definitely get a perfect score."
Sheng An Ning felt at ease, holding her stomach: "I'm a little hungry, let's go eat first and go back tomorrow. My parents must be anxiously waiting for news."
Zhou Shixun took the happy Sheng Anning to a nearby state-owned restaurant for dinner.
Sheng An Ning looked at the small blackboard on the wall. She wanted braised pork trotters, mutton soup, and finally a serving of dumplings.
People say that sour boys and spicy girls are the same, but this is not the case with her at all. She likes to eat everything. She has never vomited during such a long period of pregnancy, and she has no spots on her face. On the contrary, her skin has become better.
Some people also say jealously that a mother will be beautiful if she gives birth to a daughter, but will become ugly if she gets pregnant with a son.
Sheng An Ning didn't care at all, as long as she enjoyed the meal.
While waiting for the meal, Sheng An Ning happily told Zhou Shixun how simple the test questions were, and repeated what he said yesterday: "Oh, Dad is so amazing. He taught me political questions, and there were several questions in the test. I think there will be no problem. I will definitely get full marks in math, physics and chemistry. With politics and Chinese, I will definitely get more than 400 points, hehe."
The more she thought about it, the happier she became. She had never expected it to be so simple. Compared to the math and physics competitions she had participated in before, this was all at the kindergarten level.
Just hold your chin up and smile. As long as nothing unexpected happens, everything will be fine.
The surprise is whether someone will replace the college entrance examination scores. After all, there are quite a lot of such things in recent years.
Zhou Shixun looked at Sheng Anning warmly and said, "Wait for the food to come, and then be busy picking up pig's trotters for her and pouring vinegar and chili for dipping the dumplings."
Sheng Anning suggested to Zhou Shixun while eating: "Let's go to the department store and buy some clothes for Mom and Dad. Look at Mom's sweater. The color has faded and the cuffs have been patched with cloth."
Zhong Wenqing was generous with her children's money, especially her. She never felt sorry for what she ate or wore. However, she and Zhou Nanguang were very frugal and did not own a single new piece of clothing.
Zhou Nanguang's clothes were all those issued by the army in the early years, and the collars were frayed.
Zhou Shixun had no objection: "Okay, I'll go after dinner."
While the two were eating, two female comrades came in. Overhearing their conversation, they were also test takers and kept complaining that the questions were too difficult and that they had not encountered any of the questions they had reviewed.
One said to the other, "Chunhong, how many points can you get this time? I think I can get 200 points. I heard that the passing score must be at least 250 points."
Wang Chunhong shook her head: "I can't say for sure, probably around 200 points. Mathematics, physics and chemistry didn't do very well."
"Me too. These three subjects are really too difficult. I hope I can pass the exam today. Otherwise, I don't know if I can pass it next year. By the way, you are an educated youth from Xiaowayao Village, right?"
Wang Chunhong nodded: "Yes."
When Sheng An Ning heard the name Xiaowayao Village, she instantly became alert and ate dumplings while listening to the conversation between the two.
Then the female comrade asked again: "Is it easy for your village to get a university entrance exam? Do you know someone named Xiao Yan? Why didn't she come to take the exam? She used to have good grades in school."
Wang Chunhong was a little surprised: "You know her?"
"Of course I know her. We live in the same alley. But her family background is not good. Her mother used to be the concubine of an officer. The officer ran away to Taiwan, leaving her mother and her brother behind. Naturally, their lives were difficult. Later, her mother married our blacksmith."
"The blacksmith was a decent person when he didn't drink, but he would beat people when he was drunk. His mother also cheated on someone and was paraded through the streets. Later, Xiao Yan and her brother went to the countryside, and her mother became much more honest in the city."
Sheng An Ning was stunned. How could Xiao Yan's family be so chaotic? In this era, having a good family background is very important.
No wonder Xiao Yan was willing to leave. There must be problems in her original family.
Wang Chunhong never thought that Xiao Yan's background was like this. She just knew that all the educated youth had home visit leave, but she didn't, and she had never been back home once in all these years.
Although she got this position in an ignominious way, it was still much better than Xiao Yan marrying the stupid son of the village party secretary. At least after she left the village, no one would know about it anymore.
But Xiao Yan, I’m afraid it will be difficult for her to leave Xiaowayao Village in this lifetime.
The more she thought about it, the more relieved she felt. She had disliked Xiao Yan for a long time.
The female comrade continued, "I remember she wrote to her family before, asking for books. I thought she was also going to take the college entrance examination, but she didn't show up. It must be because of her identity. After all, her mother has some issues."
Wang Chunhong asked: "What about her brother? Did he take the college entrance examination?"
"I don't know. She didn't take the exam, so her brother certainly didn't either. My family is from Qingyang City, next to the provincial capital. I took the college entrance examination here because my husband is from here. I got married here when I was an educated youth."
The two turned the topic to the exam questions, inevitably with various concerns.
Sheng An Ning was eating her meal happily. She didn't expect to hear such a big news. The meal tasted much better.
As she walked towards the guesthouse with Zhou Shixun, holding her belly, she couldn't help but ask, "With Xiao Yan's situation, is it difficult for her to pass the political review?"
Zhou Shixun also heard a lot, but it had nothing to do with him, so he didn't care that much. Now that Sheng Anning asked, he answered very carefully: "It's no problem to get into college, but it will definitely be difficult to find a job in the future. The policy has been relaxed a lot in the past two years. Because her father is a blacksmith, it's better. For his brother, it's definitely not possible, because his biological father is a general and he fled to the other side of the strait, it's definitely not possible."
Sheng An Ning didn't fully understand, so she nodded quickly: "That's great, people like her are born bad, and they will be trouble wherever they go in the future."
She was narrow-minded and vindictive, and she wished Xiao Yan could stay in the village forever.
Zhou Shixun knew that Zhong Zhiguo also used this excuse to prevent the commune members from allowing Xiao Yan to leave the village.
The two went back to the guesthouse to put down the draft paper and pens for the exam, and then slowly went to the department store to buy things for Zhou Nanguang and Zhong Wenqing.
It was very unexpected that I met Cheng Mingyue and Sheng Hongying in the department store.
