The notification from Beijing came very quickly.
Just before the Lunar New Year, the postman finally delivered two admission notices from Peking University.
They all witnessed several cars parking in front of Yan Xiao's courtyard last time.
There were even people quietly listening in on the sidelines.
When they learned that two top universities in Beijing were vying to admit them, they were practically petrified.
These two places, which are beyond the reach of ordinary people, were actually visited by a high-ranking leader who traveled thousands of miles to the Red Star Brigade.
All for Wen Qinghe and Yan Xiao.
They say it's impossible not to have complicated feelings.
But this also silenced some people who questioned Yan Xiao's previous exam results.
However, some people still think it's too far-fetched.
Who can say for sure? Those people must be from top universities.
Maybe he's a kidnapper.
Some people had dark thoughts in their minds.
Now that the admission notice with the stamp has indeed been sent from Beijing, it's a done deal, leaving those who were still hoping to make a fool of themselves speechless.
…
The drama surrounding Wen Qinghe and Yan Xiao is still fresh in everyone's minds.
To everyone's surprise, the captain's family also had an admission letter from Tsinghua University, a top-tier institution.
That's right, Tang Lingling chose to enter Tsinghua University with an excellent score of 390.
Let's go back to that day.
That was probably Chen Guiru's shining moment.
This was the first time a woman from the countryside like her had ever met such an important figure from Beijing.
After all, the highest-ranking official she came into contact with was her own husband, who was just a brigade leader.
Now, the director of Tsinghua University in Beijing has personally come to her door, just to get her daughter-in-law to study at Tsinghua University.
Chen Guiru was so excited that the bowl of sweet soup she was serving was trembling uncontrollably.
She's now eager to open the door and call the whole village in to see.
Let's see what kind of gold nugget Chen Guiru has hidden in her house.
Look how much face her daughter-in-law gives her.
Look who's as lucky as her to have found such a wonderful daughter-in-law.
But she didn't dare.
He was afraid that his lack of manners would scare away his daughter-in-law's future.
"Comrade Tang, what's your decision? Would you like to come to our school?"
At this time, Sun Jianjun had suffered repeated setbacks with Wen Qinghe and was afraid that he would also make a wasted trip here and let Lao Sun come and get there first.
Although he was anxious inside, he maintained his image as a composed scholar on the surface.
No one knew that he was extremely anxious, like an ant on a hot pan.
Tang Lingling never dared to dream of what would happen today.
After all, in her mind, being able to get into university was already a great achievement.
She no longer dared to dream that China's top universities would extend an olive branch to her.
This was like a windfall for her!
Those few seconds of astonishment in Tang Lingling's heart were like an eternity for Sun Jianjun.
Even Chen Guiru was sweating with anxiety, fearing that her daughter-in-law might not understand and be rejected again.
She was so nervous that she almost wanted to press Tang Lingling's head down and make her nod!
Finally, after a few tense seconds...
Tang Lingling nodded with genuine joy, under the watchful eyes of Sun Jianjun's impatience and Chen Guiru's apprehension.
Sun Jianjun finally breathed a sigh of relief and laughed heartily in response.
He stood up and reached out his hand to Tang Lingling.
"Comrade Tang, you have excellent taste! Tsinghua University welcomes you!"
Tang Lingling was flattered and stood up to shake hands with him.
"You're too kind! Thank you for coming all this way to help me! I'm honored to be admitted to Tsinghua University!"
After a brief handshake, Sun Jianjun politely extended his hand back.
"Don't worry, you will soon receive an admission letter personally written by the president of Tsinghua University."
Then he thought of that annoying guy Sun Guohua, and was afraid that after he left, that guy surnamed Sun would set him up and try to steal his man.
He cleared his throat and said earnestly:
"Well, Comrade Tang, the most basic principle of being a person is to keep your word. As the ancients said, a gentleman values his promises and a promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold. This is a motto that Tsinghua University has always regarded as part of its school spirit. So Tsinghua University will keep its promises to Comrade Tang, and I believe that Comrade Tang will do the same, right?"
Tang Lingling looked surprised, but still nodded solemnly:
"Of course!"
Only then did Zhang Jianjun smile with relief.
"It's getting late, so I won't bother you any longer. I look forward to seeing Comrade Tang after the start of the semester!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Guiru quickly tried to persuade him to stay:
"Um, sir, oh no, leader, won't you stay for a meal before you leave? You've had a long journey without even a sip of water."
Zhang Jianjun recalled the sip of cloyingly sweet sugar water he had just taken, and his brows furrowed slightly involuntarily.
But the local people are simple and honest, and after all, it was their kind intention, so he couldn't refuse them directly.
He only said it tactfully:
"Thank you for your hard work, sister-in-law, but I still have a few places to visit, so I really can't accept your kindness. I won't have the meal. If you have the chance to come to Beijing, I'll arrange a meal for you to make amends."
Upon hearing this, Chen Guiru dared not delay the other party any longer.
Look at what they said! It's so embarrassing!
She quickly bowed and nodded vigorously, saying, "Okay, I won't eat then. Don't delay your business. Take care, sir!"
Zhang Jianjun: ...
Feng Dabing, who had just returned home from a meeting in town: ………
What's wrong with his wife today? Isn't she obviously trying to kick him out?
So he quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "Boss, please stay for a meal!"
Not good at handling such hospitality, Zhang Jianjun said, "No, no. I have other things to do, so I won't bother you any longer."
He left in a hurry after saying that.
…
After everyone left.
Chen Guiru finally breathed a sigh of relief and slumped her shoulders.
Her undershirt was so wet it was practically dripping water.
She raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead, splashing large amounts of water onto the ground, leaving several dark ink marks.
Feng Dabing looked at his wife with a troubled expression, "Why did you kick us out without even inviting us to stay for dinner?"
Chen Guiru rolled her eyes: "How do you know I didn't try to stop you?"
Tang Lingling chuckled, "Dad, that leader had other business to attend to and probably needed to go somewhere else. Mom was afraid of delaying his business, so she sent him away."
When Tang Lingling spoke, Chen Guiru belatedly realized that she was overjoyed, having been too busy being nervous.
"Oh my god! Our Lingling is amazing! She got into Tsinghua University! Old man, do you think our ancestors will be turning in their graves and jumping out of their coffins to tell Lingling the good news!"
The old man would probably laugh himself to death if he knew!
Feng Dabing: To be honest, this metaphor is neither good nor bad...
Whether our ancestors knew or not is another matter, but if this can't be contained, the coffin lid will jump out. No one can withstand that, right?
