After going around the city and its outings, Ping An spent the whole morning contacting various people, and finally arrived at his doorstep before lunch.

What needs to be done has been done.

At this point, Ping An no longer cared about it.

Just as his father said, money, money, it’s not like their family really needs this little bit of money.

Well, although it is a bit of an exaggeration to use "drizzle" to describe a considerable amount of assets in the future, it is really a pity to be obsessed with these external things and lose sight of the primary and secondary.

Ha! Then he really wasted all the painstaking teachings his elders had given him since he was young.

Regardless, the three brothers should focus on their studies. After all, no matter what path they choose, their future is not something they can afford to be careless about.

In the following days, Ping'an immersed himself in the study to study.

The various subjects he was involved in were not just reviewing high school knowledge, he also began to review the university textbooks and notes left by his parents.

To be honest, he was confident that he would pass the college entrance examination after it had been suspended for ten years, but he was not confident that he would get a good result.

——Who knows what kind of profound questions those professors will ask!

However, in order to reassure his mother, given her nature of giving her all in everything, he, as her son, had no choice but to fight for it without hesitation.

Ping'an showed his full strength, but he scared Aunt Chen.

Over the years, she has watched three children grow up. How could she not know how smart they are?

It seems that the college entrance examination this time will be very difficult. No wonder every household with a candidate is trying their best to buy nutritional supplements.

There is also a small cellar under the Zhou family warehouse, and one of the keys is in Aunt Chen's hands.

The items there are all relatively rare and precious, such as tiger bone wine, deer blood wine, as well as some bird's nests, donkey-hide gelatin, white fungus and red dates.

Aunt Chen, who slept next door, had joked with a smile that her room was located near food supplies and a checkpoint, which was the most important strategic location in ancient times.

This did not hinder her actions at all.

The Zhou family's original midnight snack was changed to three meals at Ping'an's place - in the evening, at night, and before the three brothers went to bed.

She was not stingy at all when it came to food, and even started going to her old sister's house in the suburbs to exchange for so-called fresh eggs.

After hearing Zhou Jiao mention that walnuts are good for the brain, Aunt Chen started picking up walnuts with a pair of pliers whenever she had a free moment. She was busy all day long.

Originally, the family was relaxed about Ping An taking the college entrance examination, but after what she did, even Zhou Jiao couldn't sit still.

The more she thought about it, the more...

Although she was familiar with history, she was now unconventionally worried about her eldest son.

Who made her help those old professors and experts openly and secretly in the past few years out of good intentions?

This also resulted in some of the older generation who should have died long ago being rehabilitated and returning to Beijing.

How big will the butterfly effect be after she did this?

It's said that even a small, insignificant action can trigger a series of massive reactions. Not to mention the lives of these distinguished elders in their respective fields.

As a mother, Zhou Jiao could no longer remain calm as usual. The severity of her situation was far higher than when she took the college entrance examination.

During this period of time, especially looking at the children's attitude towards reviewing, she was worried that her son would not be able to enter the university of his dreams, and at the same time she was worried that she would mess up the fate of many people.

Will he even accidentally slap Grandpa Zhang to death?

Her husband has always been thinking about the reform and opening up as soon as possible. Then he will have the opportunity to find out and maybe even see Grandpa Zhang when he was young.

Why are people becoming more and more clichéd?

It's just that I have more worries in my heart.

What makes a woman worry the most are her parents, husband, and her own flesh and blood.

Zhou Jiao remained calm and composed as always, and had made further progress at work. However, she didn't feel any joy at the promotion.

But time never stops for anyone. No matter what Zhou Jiao thought, the time for the college entrance examination was getting closer and closer.

It was a special era and a special college entrance examination, so time was extremely tight. From registration to the exam, it took less than two months at most.

Ping An is already one of the lucky ones.

——His photographic memory is the greatest benefit God has given him.

But not everyone is like this.

The difficulty of catching up on ten years of wasted and forgotten material in this time of rushing to the limit can be imagined. The so-called "textbooks" were hastily searched for and borrowed from friends. There was no "exam syllabus" to speak of; everything depended entirely on the knowledge gained during school.

While he was in a warm house enjoying the care of his family, there were quite a large number of people who were working in the cold winter and studying all night long under a dim light.

For example, on a farm in the northeast, it happened to be winter when the river was being opened, and almost all the staff came out in full force to rush to the river opening site.

The male educated youth braved the biting cold wind and dug mud from the icy riverbed with hoes under the snow and ice, while the female educated youth carried the mud on their shoulders and struggled to transport it to the embankment.

Even in such an environment, some people still remember to study, silently reciting the explanations of nouns and mathematical formulas... they are always racing against time.

As more letters came and went, the educated youth in the Zhangjia Village production team became even more grateful to the old team leader for his protective attitude towards them.

Ever since the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination was broadcast, the old captain told Zhang Qingshan and the others that things were changing, that the days of intellectuals coming to prominence had begun, and that they should treat these children well.

After he said this, the team immediately arranged for all the educated youth to do light work, and even allowed them to ask for leave if they did not want a few work points.

Such conditions, coupled with the pile of review materials that Zhang's father later gave them, immediately made the educated youth in Zhangjia Village feel warm in this cold winter, and they even took the initiative to review with the candidates preparing in the team.

The effect of this is undoubtedly greater unity and solidarity.

Especially the first batch of educated youth who have been sent down to the countryside until now are real high school students with a solid foundation.

So this winter, Zhangjia Village once again became a banner for the nearby production teams.

——None of the educated youth who married into a farming family or married a village girl caused any unhappiness. They had all arranged for their own children and devoted themselves to their studies.

Of course, this is inseparable from the fact that when they applied for marriage, the old captain repeatedly asked for the consent of both parents.

As for who wants to act first and report later?

The educated youth selected by him were essentially good people, not to mention that the entire production team was basically composed of people with the surname Zhang, so any slight disturbance could be discovered.

But what does the saying go? The human heart is unpredictable!

Some of these people will inevitably face the reality of separation in the future.

What about the future?

All we can say is that it will take time to verify all this.
