Chapter 207 Examination

Two months passed in a flash. During the first month, Ye Qian could still lie down well. However, when she thought about the exam after the confinement period, Ye Qian could no longer lie down. As soon as the first month was over, Ye Qian began to make time to study, not for anything else, as long as she could graduate successfully.

Naturally, Gu Jinyan couldn't persuade Ye Qian, so he could only try to keep the children away from Ye Qian during his free time so as not to disturb her reading.

As Ye Qian worked hard on her books, two months passed quickly. When she returned to work, she brought small gifts for her colleagues.

In this day and age, no one would take such a long maternity leave. First, if it's too long, not only will others have opinions, but they may also take your position; second, unless it's a particularly serious matter, you can't get such a long leave.

Although the union does not have much work to do, Ye Qian has to thank everyone for helping her colleagues share the workload for so long.

When she left the house this morning, she took with her the candies and chocolates she had prepared early in the morning. Holding the gift in her hand, Ye Qian asked, "This shouldn't be too eye-catching, right?"

Gu Jinyan just unlocked the bicycle, glanced at the small box in Ye Qian's hand and said, "Fortunately, the small box is not conspicuous."

Ye Qian nodded and followed Gu Jinyan out.

It didn't take long for the two of them to arrive at the office. Ye Qian went back to the union without waiting for Gu Jinyan to lock the car.

As soon as Ye Qian entered the room, she found that everyone had arrived, so she said, "Good morning, everyone. Long time no see."

Dong Jing heard the sound at the door and turned around and said, "It's been a long time."

Jiang Sha smiled and said, "Indeed, you've suffered a lot this time. Have you rested well?"

"Have a good rest. This is the gift I give to everyone." After saying that, he distributed the small boxes in his hand to everyone, one for each person, no more, no less.

Dong Jing: "You are so polite, you even brought a gift."

"It's the baby's full-month candy. It didn't come before, so let's make up for it now." Ye Qian said with a smile.

Although she had rested for a long time this time, Ye Qian quickly got back into work mode.

The exam was on a weekday, and Ye Qian had taken leave in advance. She had relatively few classes, so the exam was completed in one day.

Ye Qian felt relaxed after the exam. When she walked out of the examination room, she saw Gu Jinyan and the beautiful girls surrounding him waiting outside.

Ye Qian pouted: "Hey, it's not good for this guy to be too handsome, he'll attract too much attention."

Gu Jinyan ignored those women. After all, he always ignored women, except Ye Qian.

As soon as Gu Jinyan turned around, he saw Ye Qian walking towards him, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.

At such a distance and with such a background, Ye Qian stopped and looked at it with some fascination.

Gu Jinyan looked at Ye Qian: "What are you laughing at?"

Ye Qian walked quickly towards Gu Jinyan and held Gu Jinyan's arm: "My Mr. Gu is married, how come his charm hasn't diminished at all?"

The woman who had been standing aside just now wanted to say something when she saw Ye Qian hugging Gu Jinyan's arm, but when she heard Ye Qian's words, she stomped her feet and left unwillingly.

Gu Jinyan felt a little uncomfortable with Ye Qian's behavior. After all, in this era, even couples were very conservative when they were out together. Ye Qian would never act like this. So he said with a smile, "My comrade Ye Qian seems jealous."

"Why should I be jealous?" Ye Qian refused to admit that she was not only jealous, but also fascinated by her Mr. Gu's good looks.

"I'm not jealous, I thought you were here to assert your sovereignty."

"Do I need to declare sovereignty? My comrade Gu is obviously very conscious. Why does he need me to mess around?"

After the exam, more and more people gathered around, and Ye Qian had no choice but to let go of Gu Jinyan. She couldn't help but complain in her heart: this conservative era.

The two of them left the exam site and naturally celebrated after returning home. While Aunt Lan was busy, he secretly took out a lot of meat and vegetables that he had packed earlier and said, "Aunt Lan, this is what I just packed. It's still hot and can be eaten directly."

After Ye Qian went to work, Aunt Lan was the only one at home. Ye Qian had suggested to Gu Jinyan that they hire another aunt so that Aunt Lan could have more ease.

Gu Jinyan: "If we add more people, we can share more of the burden. We are already very conspicuous. What if we add one more person and get reported for hedonism?"

"Ah, I just think Aunt Lan is working too hard, so let it go."

As long as it concerns Gu Jinyan, Ye Qian must be cautious.

After all, Ye Qian was not a person who really lived in the 1960s, and she was not particularly clear about many things, so she would ask Gu Jinyan for his opinion on many things.

Gu Jinyan also enjoyed it happily.

Life was peaceful and happy afterwards, and before I knew it, it was 1976.

Xiao Ranran is also at elementary school age.

After Gu Jinyan arranged Xiao Ranran's schooling, he discovered that Ye Qian had found a set of textbooks from somewhere and was reading: "What are you looking at? You are not allowed to take the college entrance examination now."

Ye Qian turned to look at Gu Jinyan beside her: "Don't you think the current policies are getting better and better? It's only a matter of time before the college entrance examination is resumed."

Gu Jinyan frowned. He didn't understand why Ye Qian said so confidently that she would resume taking the college entrance examination. He had many doubts in his mind, but he felt a little annoyed when he saw Ye Qian's face.

It seems as if time has frozen for Ye Qian. Several years have passed and she is now a mother of three children, but her face has not changed at all. She is still full of youthfulness and lovely.

He would be a little worried if the college entrance examination was resumed and she lived alone in the dormitory.

"I'm just curious, where did you buy the book? It's not available now."

Ye Qian smiled and said, "Of course I didn't buy it now. I've been keeping it in my space forever. I only have time to read it now. It's a good opportunity for you to teach me. There are many things I don't understand."

Ye Qian was not lying. It was unlikely that she had completely forgotten it, but it had been so many years, so she must have forgotten some of it.

Gu Jinyan nodded: "I'll take a look first and then teach you."

Gu Jinyan has graduated for many years, so it is normal for him to forget. However, with his IQ, he can just look it up.

Sure enough, as Ye Qian expected, Gu Jinyan read some books at home the next day and started tutoring Ye Qian on the third day.

Ye Qian couldn't help but sigh, wondering why so many people in later generations hired tutors. It was indeed useful. She had been thinking about it for a few days and didn't quite understand it, but she understood it as soon as Gu Jinyan explained it.

Hey, having a high IQ is different.

The weather was getting colder. Gu Jinyan had been tutoring Ye Qian for 4 or 5 months. There were only a few courses, and they were finished in no time. However, Ye Qian was a little nervous, so she asked Gu Jinyan to teach her over and over again.

Although Gu Jinyan wondered why Ye Qian was so focused on studying, he didn't ask.

All these doubts were resolved in September 1977.

While still at work that day, Gu Jinyan received a notice that the college entrance examination had been resumed and would be held next month.

Qiu is from Wuhan. Those published before were all drafts written when the city was locked down due to the epidemic. This chapter is a little disconnected from the previous ones because there was a two-month gap in between. I lost my job due to the epidemic, and I have been looking for a job for the past two months after the city lockdown was lifted. Now my job is stable, so I have time to continue writing. The content in the middle cannot be connected because of the long time, so I brought it over. I'm very sorry, but I promise that I will stick to it and let everyone see their ending.

Of course, this chapter is also a draft, and I don’t know how long it will take for it to be updated.
