An earthquake caused Jiang Shanshan's originally well-off family of three to transmigrate to the impoverished 1970s.
On the left was their son crying for food in her arms, and on the righ...
The three of them looked at the smile on her face and always felt that there seemed to be a shadow of sadness hidden in this smile.
The more the three of them thought about it, the more likely it seemed that their third brother's wife was afraid that they would worry and be sad, so she used these words to comfort them.
Thinking of this, tears began to well up in the eyes of the three of them.
My third sister-in-law is such a nice person. She is so sad and upset, but now she comes back to comfort the three of them.
For the rest of the day, her family members were very careful with her. Even when she was eating, they would serve her the food and almost feed it into her mouth.
Seeing how cautious his family was towards him, Jiang Shanshan wanted to laugh but was also a little touched.
She clearly told them that she and Xu Shike could get into university, but no one in her family believed her. Instead, they thought she was just comforting her.
Seeing that she could almost recite all these words, but still no one believed her, she had no choice but to shut her mouth and wait for the results to come out so that they would believe her.
That evening, when Xu Shike returned home, he found the house quiet. Even the TV was not on, and the children in the house did not clamor to watch it.
This strange thing made him suspicious and he went to the room to find his wife who was writing a manuscript.
----
"Wife, I'm not at home today. Did something big happen at home? Why do I feel like everyone in the family is acting weird today?" As soon as he came in, he told his wife who was sitting by the window writing a manuscript about his discovery.
Seeing that he finally came back, Jiang Shanshan quickly put the pen in his hand aside and waved to him.
When Xu Shike saw his wife waving at him, he walked over and sat in front of her without saying a word.
After he sat down, Jiang Shanshan told him what happened at home today.
"Now you finally understand why our family members are acting so strangely. They're actually worried that we didn't pass the exam, and they're all over the place, so they're taking care of us very carefully."
Xu Shike raised an eyebrow and asked, "Have you received Tian Youwei and the others' notices?"
Jiang Shanshan nodded. "They all received it, but ours didn't. Do you think we really didn't pass the exam?"
Xu Shike raised an eyebrow and looked over at her when he heard this. "Don't talk nonsense. We both took the college entrance exam once. The knowledge required for this exam isn't at all as difficult as the ones we took before. We passed it then, so we'll definitely have no problem this time. Besides, we helped them review. It doesn't make sense that they passed while we didn't. There must be a reason."
At this point, his frown relaxed slightly. "I know one reason. It's possible that our scores were very high, so the higher-ups collected them and plan to deliver them to us personally. Don't worry too much. We'll have news in the next couple of days."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shanshan immediately squeezed his hand and said with a smile, "Xu Shike, we're on the same page. I figured this was the reason too. Do you think we could really become the top scholar in ancient times?"
Come to think of it, she felt a bit like she was dreaming.
Seeing her dazed look, Xu Shike couldn't help but smile and gently scratched the tip of her nose. "Maybe. Then I'll call you Jiang Zhuangyuan."
Jiang Shanshan held his red face and smiled embarrassedly, "Then I have to call you Xu Zhuangyuan."
"Xu Zhuangyuan." She shouted again with a smile.
"Jiang Zhuangyuan." He also shouted.
The young couple were in the room, shouting "Xu Zhuangyuan" and "Jiang Zhuangyuan" respectively, having a lot of fun.
