The Daily Melon-Eating Life of an Annoying Sister-in-Law in the 80s

As a Celestial Master, Hua Xiangyun, after years of hard work, was finally able to form a contract with the Nine Lotus Cauldron, a treasured artifact left by her grandmaster. Unexpectedly, somethin...

Chapter 432 Excitement

"If you go to school, what about your jobs?" Tian Guihua suddenly thought of this question. She had only thought that these children would try their luck, but she did not expect them to be so promising.

Hua Zhiping really didn't know what to do. At present, it's more desirable to have a job, and now their family suddenly has three more permanent positions.

Hua Guangzong said, "Let's see how the higher-ups arrange things first. So many people are taking the exam, and surely many will pass. We need to give them an explanation."

It's really hard to sell this; I don't know where my child will be placed after graduation.

"What can we say? If it really doesn't work out, we'll just sell it." Tian Guihua thought more deeply. Before, it was just one job, but so many people were watching her. As soon as she went out, people would ask her about it. Now she has three jobs, and these people are surrounding her every day.

“I didn’t hear the child say that many people didn’t pass the exam, so there must be some people who want to find a way out. Rather than waiting for others to bother us later, we might as well just let them go.”

Hua Guangzong said, "But they'll need to find jobs after they graduate, what will happen then..."

"Looking for work? By then they'll all be college students. Do you think they'll come to this factory as lowly laborers?" Tian Guihua shook her head. This old man goes fishing every day and never bothers to socialize. Can college students be treated the same as ordinary workers?

"So you're telling me we should really sell it?"

“Not now,” Tian Guihua already had someone in mind, “we’ll talk about it after the children receive their acceptance letters.”

There was something Tian Guihua didn't say aloud: if something were to happen, she wanted to at least leave the children a way out.

Hua Guangzong saw the two brothers still standing there and asked, "Why are you still here? Zhiping, didn't I tell you to go and inform Xiaoguai?"

"Zhi'an, now that your wife has also passed the exam, send a telegram to your father-in-law to tell them the good news."

It's really worrying that someone so old doesn't know how to take the initiative to find things to do.

...

Hua Xiangyun noticed that everyone was distracted while working in the fields today. They could have gone back to the city to wait for news, but they were all uncertain and entrusted the matter to their families. The sun was already high in the sky, so why hadn't anyone come yet?

"I'm starting to regret it. We should have gone back ourselves." Wu Yanxin threw down her hoe and sat down on the edge of the field. "Why hasn't anyone come yet? Did none of us pass the exam?"

“Don’t say such discouraging things,” Lu Haibo felt it was a bit unlucky to say such things. “It will take them time to see the results and get here.”

In her heart, she secretly clasped her hands together and kept praying that she would pass this time. Although she hadn't suffered much hardship while working in the countryside nearby, doing farm work all day was still tiring.

Seeing how nervous everyone was, Hua Xiangyun wanted to ease their tension, "If we all get accepted into university, what would we miss most about this place?"

"Then I definitely won't be willing to give up this house," Wu Yan thought to himself, comparing his current house to the small attic he had built at home. There was simply no comparison.

Plus, with such a large front and back yard, and the vegetables I grew myself, the more I think about it, the more reluctant I am to give it up.

Others echoed the sentiment, saying, "We haven't harvested our cabbages yet. The villagers say we have to wait a little longer and harvest them before the snow. We don't know if we'll be able to wait that long."

“If there’s really good news, then let’s harvest the cabbages ahead of time,” Hua Xiangyun said, thinking of the cabbages and radishes in the backyard. “It won’t be easy to transport so many vegetables back home.”

Previously, when they planted them, they only planned to dry and pickle them in winter, but the fresh ones are large and heavy, so it's not so easy to take them away.

Xie Wenlian said, "What's the big deal? We have a handcart at home, and it's enough for each person to make one trip."

Wang Yayun: "This is a good idea, but we don't know if we'll be given the opportunity to do it."

Well, we've come full circle. Hua Xiangyun knew everyone's minds were on their grades, so she simply stopped and joined them in their daydreaming.

Captain Ren sighed as he watched this scene, shook his head and left. These educated youth had worked so hard before; if they hadn't passed the exam this time, they would have been devastated.

To be honest, he really hoped that all these children would pass the exam. Although they did a decent job, they earned work points from the village. If this was spread out, each family's income would actually be less.

Moreover, these children are all quite good. They don't cause trouble or make a fuss when they come to the village, which makes them very easy to manage. He also hopes that they will have a bright future.

These kids in the village, who only know how to laugh and joke all day long, have never thought about what kind of changes they will face after going to university.

No one really values ​​their children's education, so he has to go back and discipline his kids to see if he can find any hope in them...

The first to rush into the village was surprisingly Wu's father. He was seen riding his bicycle so fast that his footsteps left afterimages. When he stopped panting by the field, several educated youths surrounded him at the same time.

"Let your uncle catch his breath first," Hua Xiangyun said quickly when she saw they were about to ask questions. He seemed like an honest person and must not have rested along the way.

Mr. Wu gave Hua Xiangyun a grateful look. He had been so focused on telling his daughter the good news that he had been riding his bicycle all the way here. As soon as he stopped, he felt his heart racing.

Wu Yanxin gently patted her father's back to soothe him, saying, "Why rush things? Whether it's sooner or later, the outcome is already predetermined."

Mr. Wu, panting, gave a thumbs-up, unable to hide the smile on his face.

Wu Yanxin's heart raced, and she excitedly asked, "I passed the exam?"

Mr. Wu didn't say anything, he just kept nodding. His daughter had really made him proud this time, and her test results were pretty good.

The other educated youths nearby also looked on expectantly. At this moment, Mr. Wu quickly took out a piece of paper from his pocket and told them to read it themselves.

He pulled some strings and got firsthand information from a certain department before dawn; the rest was copied down.

It seems that sending my daughter to the countryside nearby was the right choice back then, as all of these boys and girls have passed the exams.

It's true that birds of a feather flock together; being around excellent people always makes things better.

In the blink of an eye, cheers erupted in their ears. Everyone had seen the results of their hard work over the past few days, so how could they not be excited?

Their fate began to change from this moment on, something they never dared to imagine before.

Although the villagers working nearby didn't know what they were talking about, they could guess what they were talking about from their excited expressions.

Previously, when the educated youth asked for leave to take the exam, they were laughing at them, saying that these kids were arrogant and thought that university was so easy to get into, and that everyone could pass.
