In the Apocalypse, Ke Meiyu was a “canary” kept by the big shot Ying Yan.
She resented the big shot’s domineering, indifferent, and ruthless nature, yet yearned for the freedom of an or...
Ke Meiyu raised an eyebrow, thinking to herself how clever she was.
Although given her contributions, this application form was practically unnecessary and insignificant, it still felt a bit awkward to make the trip just for it. After all, it had several official stamps on it…
Besides, this matter could be a big deal or a small deal; if it gets investigated, it could involve many other things.
The village chief and the village party secretary nodded with grim expressions.
“When we submitted the application, we thought that since we had seen you fill it out before, there were no problems, so we sealed the document bag with glue, stamped it in the appropriate place, and handed it to the commune.”
"The leaders in the commune also attached great importance to this matter, and handed it over to the county without opening the seal or stamping it."
“There are quite a few places available for worker-peasant-soldier college students in the county, and they are all waiting in line for review. Although you were specially approved by the higher authorities and do not need to be reviewed, we still have to submit your applications to the province, which is why it was delayed for a few days.”
"But who knew there wasn't an application form inside, it was just..."
Ke Meiyu stepped forward, her brows slightly furrowed: "Uncle, just what? Is there something written inside?"
"Yes, the higher-ups say the five Ke brothers are colorblind. You lot don't work hard and are not qualified for worker-peasant-soldier quotas at all!" The village chief said with a grim face.
The village party secretary also said, "The only people who would know about these things and have the opportunity to do so are from our village. The county leaders have temporarily suppressed this matter and told us to handle it seriously. They also asked if you have any channels to get another form."
Ke Meiyu asked with a crestfallen face, "Where can we find a channel?"
"As you saw before, it was someone who came to us. And they're even close to a high-ranking leader! If I bother them with something so trivial, they might start investigating..."
"You need to be mentally prepared. If they find out who it is, this matter will be very serious."
The village party secretary and the village chief were extremely anxious, and it was precisely because they were concerned about this that they rushed to find Ke Meiyu.
"What should we do?" The two middle-aged men's eyes reddened with anxiety.
The old man frowned deeply. "Alright, stop circling around here. Circling won't solve anything."
"Go back and find out who did this! Although it's our son and daughter who are in university, this is an honor for the entire Luofeng Village. We really don't know what that person is up to!"
"He has no ability of his own, so he deliberately sabotages others. He's a parasite that harms the collective. If we don't root him out, even if this matter is resolved, problems will arise again!"
Ke Meiyu nodded repeatedly, "Uncle, you should go back and investigate thoroughly."
“There aren’t many literate people in our village, and it shouldn’t be difficult to figure out which part of the document bag went wrong during the handover.”
"I'll think of something else. Let's try to turn this big problem into a small one, and a small one into nothing!"
The village chief and the village party secretary quickly responded and apologized to Ke Meiyu and the Ke brothers before leaving.
After they left, the five Ke brothers all sighed in unison; their fates were truly filled with hardship...
Ke Meiyu chuckled, ran into the house, took out the form, and whispered, "Ta-da... Luckily I had some foresight. I was afraid something might happen, so I secretly asked for an extra copy!"
"Coincidentally, that comrade also brought forms for many people to convey the encouragement from the provincial leaders, so there were extra forms."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and whispered praises for her cleverness and quick wit.
Ke Meiyu also taught her family a lesson: they should think things through more before doing anything, especially her silly older brothers who were about to go away to study.
Be careful when making friends in college, lest you get taken advantage of and end up helping others count the money!
"This is just in our village, where we haven't affected anyone else's interests, but others are causing trouble for us because of their jealousy. When you get to university, you'll be competing with your classmates, so you'll have to be careful in everything you do."
Watching the girl earnestly impart her wisdom on how to conduct oneself in society.
The men of Daxia Hua laughed heartily. "Little sister, although your brothers don't like to work and weren't very hardworking when they were young, they still have some cleverness."
"We're always the ones who take advantage of others, we're not the ones who get the better deal."
Ke Meiyu sneered: "Just now!"
"Others can't take advantage of you, but they can find other ways to do it."
“Even horses can stumble,” Ke Yuanwan muttered weakly, then quickly added, “Don’t worry, girl, I’ll keep a low profile at school and play dumb to fool everyone.”
"I'm best at playing dumb," Ke Yuansui offered his own strategy.
"A fist can shatter all schemes and tricks," Ke Yuanxia said, showing off his strong physique.
Ke Yuanhua crossed his arms and said, "I like to scheme against people. They better not offend me, or I'll let them know that Master Hua is not someone to be trifled with..."
"Who do you call yourself 'master'?" Old Ke's slap immediately landed, making him stagger.
“Dad,” Ke Yunhua rubbed his head, “we were just joking around.”
Ke Meiyu turned to look at Ke Yuanda, "What about you, big brother?"
"Does my speed and jumping ability count?" Ke Yuanda thought for a moment and asked.
Ke Meiyu nodded, "Okay, looks like I'll have another job to do these days!"
“Starting today, I will be offering classes in three sessions: morning, afternoon, and evening. In the morning, I will teach the children academic subjects; in the afternoon, I will teach the older brothers Machiavellian tactics and strategies for finding wives; and in the evening, I will teach the older brothers, their wives, and grandparents how to educate the children.”
"Learning makes me happy, learning helps me improve. Our whole family should take action, respond to the organization's call, and enrich ourselves during this winter!"
She shouted the slogans loudly, her heart filled with excitement.
However, the Ke family stared at her blankly, wondering what she was talking about.
The old lady nodded in response, "Bao'er, you can teach boldly. If anyone is disobedient or doesn't study properly, just tell me and your grandpa."
“We’re an enlightened patriarch. We don’t hit or scold him. We just let the rest of the family eat meat and let him eat cornbread and vegetable porridge! He’ll only eat three-tenths full to keep his head up.”
The Ke family immediately erupted in wails...
Ke Meiyu couldn't help but give a thumbs up. The old lady was truly brilliant. She didn't know if it would work on others, but she was afraid of this kind of threat! It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it was her Achilles' heel.
"Fish, let me ask for leave for you. Come visit some relatives with me and your brothers tomorrow," Mother Ke said with a smile.
"Are we going to Grandma's house?" Ke Meiyu immediately ran over and asked.
"Yes, I haven't been back since the autumn harvest started. You're getting married in a couple of days, so you should take Xiao Qin with you and tell her about your upcoming university trip."
As Mrs. Ke spoke, her smile never faded; she exuded a triumphant and exhilarating feeling!
