In fact, it is not the fault of the work efficiency of various universities. After being suspended for ten years, once the college entrance examination was resumed, the accumulated educated youth for ten years burst out like a flash flood.

In addition, previous and current high school graduates also came out in droves to take the exam, resulting in the number of candidates nationwide reaching 5.7 million.

The large number of people has led to a sharp increase in the workload of marking papers, checking scores, and admitting students based on their preferences. In addition, January is the Spring Festival holiday, so it is not surprising that the issuance of admission notices is delayed until March.

As a group of people entered the village with drums and gongs, they were surrounded by the elderly and children who did not have to go to work or school.

"Did anyone do this meritorious service?"

"Who knows? The boys from Bai Ren and Bai Cheng's families are both serving in the army. Did one of them make a contribution?"

Nowadays, weddings don't have the usual fanfare of gongs and drums. If there's such a big commotion, it's either the propaganda team from the commune, or someone has done something great.

If the commune's propaganda team was coming, there would definitely be news in advance. It was so sudden, someone must have made a contribution and was rewarded.

"Sister-in-law, where is your captain?"

A cadre in a Zhongshan suit asked.

"I don't know. Maybe he's at the brigade headquarters, or maybe he's on the riverbank. The laborers are busy planting sunflowers right now!"

Li Xiu Lian and Liu Gui Hua are always the first to rush to the front line when something exciting happens.

"Leader, you're making such a big noise with all the gongs and drums and firecrackers. Did someone in our village do something meritorious?"

Seeing that the team leader was smiling and obviously in a good mood, someone bravely asked.

"It's not considered a meritorious service, but it's definitely an honor. In this college entrance examination, all the educated youth from Chenjiatun have been admitted to universities. We are here to deliver the good news."

The college entrance examination had been cancelled for ten years. Once it was restored, the educated youth team from Chenjiatun made such a big splash, and the entire Qingshan Commune was honored.

"That's great news, Commander. We'll take you to the brigade headquarters."

The educated youth in their village were so motivated, and the other members of the village were also proud of themselves.

The aunts and sisters led the way in front, followed by the commune's propaganda team. The children ran after them, imitating the movements of the yangge dance, and walked towards the brigade headquarters in a lively manner.

When they arrived at the brigade headquarters, the brigade leader and the old branch secretary were not there. Accountant Xu, confused and unable to understand the situation, walked out of the brigade headquarters.

"Isn't this Director Zhou from the Educated Youth Office? You've even brought the commune's propaganda team with you. Has any of our village's educated youth been admitted to university?"

Accountant Xu recognized Zhou Xuepeng at a glance. The last time he came here was because Huang Qiuxia reported Yang Baiyi for hunting and selling meat.

"That's me, comrade. You're only half right. It's not that some people have been admitted to university, but that all the educated youth in your village have been admitted to university.

Where are Captain Chen and the educated youth working? Can you let them know?

Accountant Xu recognized Zhou Xuepeng, but Zhou Xuepeng didn't know Accountant Xu. However, this did not affect his enthusiasm.

"What? They all passed? Isn't it said that getting into university is difficult? After all, they are all students from the city!"

All the educated youth were admitted to university, including his son-in-law Zhang Hui. Accountant Xu felt mixed emotions for a while.

Promises are one thing, but whether they can be fulfilled is another. Accountant Xu does not have much confidence in his son-in-law.

But Director Zhou from the Youth League Office has already come here with great fanfare, so he still needs to be notified.

After a quick look around, his eyes fell on the children. The children were nimble and quick, so they were just the right people to call for help.

"Chen Chuan, Xiaobao, go to the riverbank and call the team leader and all the educated youth over."

"Accountant Xu, did my uncle also get into university?"

Chen Chuan is the youngest son of the Biaozi family, and his uncle is Cui Jinfa.

"Didn't you hear what the leader said? They all passed the exam, go call them!"

There was a hint of sadness in Accountant Xu's smile.

I originally thought that the college entrance examination was so difficult that most people only focused on participating, but I didn’t expect my son-in-law to pass it so easily.

"I'll go call my uncle right away."

A group of children ran out of the brigade headquarters.

"Uncle, you got into college."

"Captain, there are many people coming to the brigade headquarters, beating drums and gongs."

…

Before the children even reached the riverbank, they began to shout and scream from afar, quite like ancient messengers.

"Biaozi, is that your son Xiaochuan?"

"And my son Xiaobao, what are they shouting about? Comrade Cui Jinfa got into university?"

…

The children's shouts attracted everyone's attention.

"Run slower, don't fall. What did you just say?"

Chen Baiwang put away his pipe and reached out to support Chen Chuan who was rushing in the front.

"Captain, a leader has arrived with a propaganda team, saying that all the educated youth in our village have been admitted to university, including my uncle!"

Chen Chuan took a deep breath, his face full of excitement and pride.

Although he has not yet started school, he does not know what it means to be admitted to university.

But since the leader brought people to celebrate with drums and gongs, it must be a good thing.

"Did you hear correctly? The leader said that all the educated youth were admitted to university?"

Chen Baiwang's first reaction to Chen Chuan's words was suspicion and disbelief.

"Really, Captain, we all heard it."

Xiaobao also made a solemn promise on the side.

"Is it true? We'll know when we go back and take a look."

The old branch secretary said something and strode towards the brigade headquarters.

"Comrades, please continue working. All educated youth, please follow me back to the brigade headquarters."

"Xiaobao, Chen Chuan, go to the school and call Principal Han and the others."

After instructing the members to continue working, Chen Baiwang led the educated youth and walked quickly towards the brigade headquarters.

"I passed the exam. I really got into university."

Fan Jin muttered softly, still immersed in the huge surprise and unable to recover.

"Comrade Fan Jin, what's wrong with you? Don't be like Fan Jin in ancient times, who went crazy after passing the imperial examination."

Dong Yiming, who was walking next to Fan Jin, suddenly slapped Fan Jin on the back.

"Look at your achievements. Comrade Baiyi revealed the news to us three years in advance. We had three more years to review than others. Isn't it natural for us to get into university?"

Cui Jinfa said carelessly.

"What you said makes sense, but I still can't help but get excited!"

Fan Jin was a little excited. This exam was the most important one in his life, an exam that could change his destiny.

Chen Baiwang and Chen Dahe were the first to walk into the brigade headquarters and were also shocked by the scene in front of them.

There was a gong and drum team, a yangko team, a quick-speaking storytelling team, and a few people singing Errenzhuan. Almost everyone from the commune propaganda team came.

The last time such a big scene was staged was during the victory of the Korean War.

"Captain, old Party Secretary, congratulations! This time, Chenjiatun has made a big splash."

When Zhou Xuepeng saw the two of them, he immediately walked over with a smile on his face and was extremely enthusiastic.
