Chen Gang walked confidently to the brigade primary school. Along the way, he was sometimes relaxed and sometimes tense, as if his heart was being tightly gripped by an invisible hand.

When he reached the entrance of the primary school, his hands unconsciously clenched tightly, and fine beads of sweat seeped from his palms. The damp feeling made him even more uneasy.

He suppressed his unease and walked heavily towards the door of the elementary school classroom. When he saw the Chinese test paper posted on the wall, with "58 points" written in large red ink:

His breathing immediately became rapid and disordered, as if he could not inhale enough air, and his throat felt like it was blocked with a wad of cotton, dry and suffocating.

He Hua, who came along, saw this scene. She opened her eyes wide and looked through all the test papers. It was indeed Chen Gang's test paper that was posted on them.

She simply couldn't believe it. This was Chen Gang's test score? He had such good grades in junior high school, how could he fail such a simple test?

She was anxious to ask Chen Gang what had happened, but seeing Chen Gang's lifeless eyes, his slightly trembling body, and his inability to open his mouth, she couldn't bring herself to do it.

Chen Gang had been looking forward to becoming a teacher, where he wouldn't have to work and would still receive a salary, allowing him to return to his previous life.

Little did he know that reality would deliver such a heavy blow. He then quickened his pace and left the village primary school. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, others would laugh at him even more.

Seeing that Chen Gang had walked away, He Hua hurriedly chased after him.

As they walked along the road, they encountered Zou Daying, who also noticed Chen Gang's rapid footsteps.

"Brother Chen Gang, where are you going so fast? Wait for me!"

Zou Daying also started running, trying to catch up with Chen Gang. She wondered, "Why are you running so fast and in such a hurry? Could it be that Brother Chen Gang didn't pass the exam either?"

She watched helplessly as he stormed into the educated youth settlement, went into his room, and slammed the door shut. To avoid being seen by others, Zou Daying had no choice but to leave.

He Hua, who arrived later, ignored everything and knocked on the door. No matter how hard she knocked, Chen Gang wouldn't open it.

Thinking of this, He Hua had no choice but to give up and turn back to her room.

At the primary school, Su Tian and Ma Chunling were notified to attend a small meeting in the principal's office, where they were waiting for the principal's conversation.

A bespectacled, refined-looking middle-aged man stepped into the office.

Su Tian looked and realized it was the teacher who had been monitoring the exam that morning; he was the school principal.

"Hello, let me introduce myself. I am the principal of the brigade's primary school. My surname is Yan and my name is Yan Kuan."

You all passed the primary school teacher exam with top scores. Now let's work together to do a good job at the school.

School starts on September 1st, so you need to go to school the day before to prepare for the start of the semester.

Your salary is 10 yuan per month, plus 10 work points per month.

Is there anything else you don't understand? You can ask now so we can discuss it.

"Principal, which grade level are we responsible for teaching?" Su Tian asked.

Yan Kuan looked into Su Tian's clear and bright eyes and was deeply impressed by her. Her handwriting on the test paper was neat, and the words looked like they were printed on.

Principal Yan chuckled and said, "You're from the Chinese language group, right? Since you're new to the teaching profession, you're all responsible for first-grade Chinese and math."

Can you draw and sing? These are also plans you'll be responsible for; you'll be in charge of art and music for the lower grades.

"Okay, I can sing, so I'll take charge of singing. Su Tian, ​​can you draw?"

“I can, so I’ll be in charge of drawing,” Su Tian said confidently.

"Oh my, our school has struck gold! It's settled then. You can come back in a couple of days to officially register."

"Okay, thank you, Principal," they said, turning and leaving the office.

"Su Tian, ​​this principal is quite funny. I thought he was very serious and scary."

"Haha... I thought so too. I saw him in the exam room and he didn't smile. I thought he was very serious."

"Su Zhiqing, I heard you passed the teacher's exam, is that right?" An aunt from the village asked immediately when she met her on the road.

"Yes, Auntie, both Ma Zhiqing and I passed the exam."

"Wow, you two are really amazing! We're confident entrusting the children in our village to you."

"Yes, look at Su, the educated youth. He's hardworking, he can catch human traffickers and hunt wild boars, and he even got the highest score in the exam. He's amazing," another old lady added.

"Oh dear, auntie, grandma, please stop praising me. If you keep praising me, I'll feel like I'm flying high," Su Tian said, covering her mouth with a laugh.

"Auntie, madam, we have to go now, let's talk again next time."

Fearing that their conversation would go on forever—the village aunties were too talkative—the two hurriedly headed towards the educated youth settlement.

"Chunling, I cooked the wild boar meat from yesterday in the pot. We haven't eaten it yet. It weighs a full ten pounds. Do you think we should give it to the educated youth as an extra meal? Would they eat it?"

"Wow, really? Of course we'll eat it, it's meat! Let's hurry back and have Yuanyuan cook."

Ma Chunling couldn't wait to eat meat, so she pulled Su Tian and hurriedly ran back to the educated youth settlement.

"Hey, slow down. This meat is to celebrate us becoming teachers. Aren't you happy?"

"So happy, so happy I could fly! Haha..."

Ha ha……

The two of them laughed all the way back to the educated youth settlement, called Zheng Yuanyuan out, told her that there was wild boar meat, and asked her to cook it.

The other educated youth also quickly congratulated Su Tian and the others. Although they didn't pass the exam, what if they needed to recruit teachers again next time?
