The next morning, the sky was still pitch black. Lights in the rooms of the courtyard came on one after another, and bursts of wheat fragrance wafted from the kitchen.

The three Ping'an brothers got up on time as usual, followed the guards to run outside for half an hour as usual, and then practiced boxing in the spacious courtyard in the main yard.

By the time they finished their work, the sky was already a little light. They then discovered that their grandfather, who had been doing morning exercises in the park, was walking around with his hands behind his back.

In comparison, their calm grandfather and father really treated themselves as their grandchildren.

——Look how nervous he is.

When Zhang's mother saw that it was already dawn, she hurried in from the outer courtyard and heard the cooing of pigeons and the cries of magpies.

She was so happy that she suddenly looked up and let out a hearty laugh.

Father Zhang looked at her in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"Old man, look, it's really magpies. Look, there are several magpies here, hahahaha... Even magpies know to come here early in the morning to announce good news with pigeons..."

Zhang's mother shouted, and everyone in the family followed her hand and looked up at the eaves of the main house...

Zhang Laoer clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Mom, look, several more have flown over here. What kind of bird is that one with a long tail over there?"

Zhang's mother quickly shushed him, "Be quiet, don't scare him away."

"Nana, they're not afraid of people."

Wuyi sighed silently and glanced at Zhou Xiaozheng, Zhang Guoqing, Zhou Jiao, and the remaining two brothers who were calm and composed.

——As for his grandma, she had already run to his grandmother's place to join in the fun.

When did these things start?

He and Liuyi, the "two brothers in distress", were not only popular with birds, but they also often kicked up good things while running, making the three of them well-known "little **".

Mai Sui pushed Wuyi and asked, "Did you use any medicine powder?" It's no wonder she said that, because she knew that her three cousins ​​were proficient in traditional Chinese medicine like their mother.

Wuyi and Liuyi looked at each other and smiled, then shook their heads. "How is that possible? I just put some corn husks on the roof from time to time."

"No wonder."

After breakfast, this strange incident was over. We sent off those who were going to work, and the rest of us picked up our luggage and set off accompanied by the three Ping An brothers.

In May Day's words, their parents hadn't taken much leave in eight hundred years, and now that time had passed, it wasn't worth it. The three brothers should just send them off to report first.

Both Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao had complete faith in the abilities of their three sons. If they couldn't even do this, they would suspect there was something wrong with their children's education.

Unlike picking someone up at the station, this time Zhang Guoqing certainly wouldn't let his son drive a military vehicle to three universities to show off.

Fortunately, the three brothers are strong.

In addition to the quilts, bedding, washbasins, enamel cups and other miscellaneous daily necessities that Shi Tou and the other two had originally prepared for school, Zhou Jiao also prepared a lot for them.

Along the way, we took a bus to the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Mai Sui.

The College of Traditional Chinese Medicine may be unfamiliar to others, but the three Ping'an brothers smiled at each other and were secretly happy: it was said that their nephew was the vice-president.

Of course, this nephew starts from Zhou Jiao's generation.

When we entered the campus, most of the students had already arrived in the previous few days, and there were several lines of processing passages that day.

It didn't take long for Mai Sui to arrive, and she didn't even have to look for anyone. With the help of enthusiastic alumni, everything went very smoothly and quickly.

After handing in the admission letter, political review materials, and household registration documents, Zhang received a series of enthusiastic instructions. Zhang's mother said it was indeed a university.

Freshmen now had good conditions. In addition to their scholarships, each person received a monthly food ration of 35 jin (approximately 100 kg) of grain, including 12 jin (approximately 100 kg) of fine grain. When eating in the school cafeteria, using fine grain coupons to buy rice cost 2 fen (approximately 200 kg) of rice.

According to a new alumnus who is about 30 years old, a plate of shredded potatoes costs 1.5 cents, while meat dishes are a bit more expensive, at 50 cents, but you can only order one dish for a meal.

These freshmen who have just entered the school all team up with classmates they have good relationships with, keep each other warm, and combine meat and vegetables, which saves a lot.

Mai Sui's dormitory was on the second floor. When the family came in, the eight-person room was so crowded that they could hardly turn around. It was said that there were also dormitories for twelve people.

Haha, among these eight people, there was a female comrade sitting on the lower bunk with a child in her arms.

Mother Zhang chased the man away and praised happily, "This is your baby, isn't he? He's so handsome. How old is he?"

With her presence, before Mai Sui had even made her bed, she had already found out everything about the other seven people in the dormitory. But it also made her feel relieved.

If she wasn't afraid of taking her child to school, how could the school ignore her? It would be fine if the seven little girls didn't get too competitive. She was just worried that her granddaughter had a bad temper and might get into arguments.

When Zhang's mother came out, she nodded to her husband and sons with joy on her face.

After settling Mai Sui, Zhang Laoer gave her a few more instructions, and the group set off again, this time going to Zuo Xinyi's Normal University first.

In the words of the men in the Zhang family, the boys don’t have to worry about anything, but the girls have to be arranged first.

The Normal University is better than Mai Sui’s University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The other conditions are the same as those of several universities, but the subsidies at the other university are higher.

This time, it was Zhang Minglei who went out to chat with his wife's roommates. He even went so far as to ask about their relationship while he was cleaning up. According to Wuyi, he had to let everyone know that the girl was taken.

And this master must be the one who can blind those dogs' eyes.

He was so evasive that no one dared to bully his wife. Of course, if he could bribe some spies, then he would have someone to tip off if something went wrong, right?

Everything was settled, and after bidding farewell to Zuo Xinyi who was reluctant to leave, I finally had less luggage and felt relieved...

As I stepped into the Jinan Institute of Technology, I met someone I knew before I even reached the queue.

Their gathering last night wasn't just about drinking some wine and dancing; they were just chatting away, and naturally, they started talking about classmates and alumni.

With friends, things get done easier.

After submitting the information, they were even given a new dormitory.

After arranging for the three to register, it was already late. The three brothers had planned to return to school to register at 3 pm, so they had to rush home first.

Sitting on the bus, Father Zhang looked at the three Ping An brothers with a worried look on his face.

Wuyi smiled and said, "Grandpa, don't worry, we will definitely catch up."

"I should have let you bring your luggage first. What a miscalculation."

"I want to stay with you for a while longer. You can rest well at home with my grandma and uncle this afternoon. I'll go check on them tomorrow to see how they're doing."

Zhang's father shook his head. "Everything's already been arranged. Why bother going? You should study hard in school. Your generation has finally arrived at a good time."

Mother Zhang nodded repeatedly.

Isn't this the best of times? Young girls and wives now dare to wear red and green. Look at the girl sitting in front of her, she's wearing a gold ring on her hand.

If this had happened a few years ago, no, the year before last, I would have been beaten up by people who shaved my head and hung a sign on my head. It's different now, it's definitely different.
