After leaving Nancheng High School, Xie Wan thanked Qin Muye again.
"Comrade Qin Muye, thank you. Without your help, I would have been living with only a high school diploma for the past four years."
Qin Muye said: "You're welcome, this is what I should do. But why four years?"
It is now 1973. According to Xie Wan's memory, the college entrance examination was first resumed in 1977, four years later.
But Xie Wan couldn’t tell Qin Muye directly, she said: “I just think knowledge is always useful.
The prosperity of our motherland is inseparable from science and technology.
I believe that in four years at most, the country will definitely resume the college entrance examination."
After listening to Xie Wan's words, Qin Muye's expression became serious. He agreed with Xie Wan very much and secretly decided in his heart that he should not slack off in his studies either.
Qin Muye had to rush back to the army before going to work in the afternoon.
Xie Wan said she would go back, and she wanted to use the remaining half day of free time to go to the seed store again.
The two parted at the bus stop outside the school.
Xie Wan took the bus to the seed shop.
Zhang Shufen happened to be there. She recognized Xie Wan at a glance and winked at him.
Thank you so much.
She waited outside the seed shop for ten minutes, and Zhang Shufen slipped out with a cloth bag in her hand.
"This bag contains the scattered seeds I collected. There are seeds for several kinds of vegetables. If you want them, I'll give them ten dollars."
Xie Wan opened the cloth bag and saw that there were indeed several kinds of unknown seeds mixed together inside, weighing about two kilograms.
Xie Wan guessed that this must be what Zhang Shufen accumulated when she swept the floor every day, or picked out from those bags, which is why it is so mixed.
She gave Zhang Shufen ten yuan and said that if there was more next time, she would ask for more.
After leaving the seed shop, Xie Wan suddenly thought that since she could enter her space, she must be able to raise living things.
Why not raise some chickens and ducks there so they can lay eggs and sell them?
When I went to the grocery store, I found that there were no live chickens or ducks for sale.
Xie Wan saw someone selling eggs, but she didn’t know whether these eggs could hatch chicks.
Besides, there is no constant temperature device in her space, so it is probably impossible to hatch chicks.
Xie Wan plans to go back to Renjia Village next weekend. The most convenient way is to take advantage of the captain's family.
Early the next morning, Xie Wan took the bus to go to school.
When I arrived at the classroom, I saw an acquaintance.
"Why are you here?" When Xu Bing saw Xie Wan, he was as surprised as if he had seen a ghost.
Xu Bing has been having a hard time ever since he failed to rob Xie Wan last time and was beaten up by Xie Wan instead.
After all, his injuries could not be hidden from his father, Political Commissar Xu.
Political Commissar Xu thought that Xu Bing had gone out to fight with gangsters again, so he locked Xu Bing up at home and did not let him out for a week.
If school hadn't started, Xu Bing would still be in solitary confinement at home.
Xie Wan also recognized Xu Bing. Xu Bing was a head taller than her. Xie Wan raised her head and laughed proudly, "Hey, isn't this the defeated general?"
When Xu Bing mentioned what happened that day, he felt ashamed. He said fiercely, "What do you mean by defeated general? You were the one who cheated.
How did you get to know Er Huang?"
Even if Xu Bing was beaten to death, he would never believe that Er Huang would be bribed by Xie Wan for a piece of candy.
Afterwards, he was afraid that Erhuang had been abducted by Xie Wan, so he made a special trip to the dog farm to see Erhuang.
As a result, the person in charge of the dog farm said that Erhuang came back on his own.
"Er Huang is a meritorious official. He can distinguish right from wrong and knows that you are breaking the law. Er Huang will definitely help me and not you."
Xu Bing looked fierce but was actually weak: "Who has done anything illegal?
I won't bother with a country girl like you, but don't fall into my hands in the future, or you will suffer the consequences."
After saying that, Xu Bing slipped back to his seat.
In Xie Wan's eyes, Xu Bing was just a typical middle school boy. She was too lazy to argue with him and sat down in her seat and started reading.
On the way home from school, Xie Wan and Xu Bing happened to be on the same bus.
Neither of them wanted to pay attention to each other.
When they arrived at the military family quarters, Xie Wan got out of the car and no longer saw Xu Bing.
She saw a wild apricot forest on the road and suddenly had an idea. She thought of transplanting a few apricot trees into the space.
Xie Wan took out a hoe from the space, picked a small apricot tree and started digging.
After digging, she threw the apricot tree into the space. After digging three trees in a row, she suddenly heard footsteps.
"I caught you, didn't I? You were stealing apricots?"
Xu Bing jumped out.
Xie Wan didn't know when he started following her.
It would be terrible if Xu Bing discovered the secret of her space.
Fortunately, Xu Bing's focus was not on the holes she dug, but on the hoe in her hand and asked, "You stole apricots, and you brought a hoe?"
Xie Wan said calmly, "There are no apricots left, what should I steal?
I saw that there were too many weeds in this orchard, so I’m helping to weed them.”
Xu Bing expressed his doubts, "This apricot forest is the public property of the army, why do we need you to weed it?
What on earth are you doing sneaking around like that?"
Xie Wan knew that Xu Bing had arrived and he could no longer dig saplings.
He was about to leave with a hoe in hand.
Xu Bing blocked Xie Wan's way and insisted that she explain herself clearly.
Xie Wan understood that Xu Bing was deliberately making trouble for her.
"If you don't get out of the way, I'll beat you up, believe it or not?"
This was the sentence Xu Bing was waiting for. He had always remembered the beating from Xie Wan that day.
He would never be able to feel relieved unless he had a fight with Xie Wan.
But Xie Wan was a woman after all, and he didn't have the face to actively challenge Xie Wan to a fight.
But if Xie Wan strikes first, he will show no mercy.
Seeing that Xu Bing was tall and strong, Xie Wan knew that she would not be able to beat him, so she walked towards the main road while saying harsh words.
Xu Bing kept provoking her from behind, and before they knew it, they were outside the dog farm again.
Xie Wan walked into the dog farm, and Xu Bing said something sour behind him: "The dogs here are all military dogs. The sentries won't let you in."
Unexpectedly, the sentry at the door saw Xie Wan and greeted him enthusiastically: "Doctor Xie, are you here to see Erhuang again?"
Xie Wan smiled and said, "Well, let me go and see how the other military dogs infected with tapeworms are recovering."
Xie Wan entered the dog farm, and Xu Bing asked the sentry, "Did you just call her doctor?"
The sentry was also familiar with Xu Bing and said, "You don't know? It's the Erhuang that Doctor Xie cured."
Xu Bing was depressed and thought, “No wonder Er Huang listened to her.
Humph, since you saved Er Huang, I will let you go today!"
