Chapter 142 Who is more miserable?
"It's not a big deal that you met a goose, after all, it's small. Remember the last time I went back to the village? I also met a pig then."
"pig?"
"Yes, I heard that a pig in the village was sick and the nearby veterinarian couldn't treat it, so I brought it to the capital for a checkup."
"Ah? There are still people taking pigs to see a doctor? Can't we ask someone to go over there?"
"Sure, but I heard that the pig is seriously ill. If you want a professional veterinarian to come, you have to apply for it layer by layer, which takes too much time. By the time someone gets there, the pig will probably be dead. This pig is the property of the village. It's not easy to raise it for a year. No one wants to see it die, so the village cadres just take it to the veterinarian."
"Okay, is this still possible? Is that pig running in the car too?"
"No, the pig didn't run away. It was too sick to run."
"That's good..."
"Although it didn't run away, it defecated. I don't know if it was because it was sick, but it had been defecating since it got on the bus. Fortunately, it was in a sack and not on the bus. But the smell was very strong. It was cold at the time and the window couldn't be opened, so I held my nose and held my breath until I got off the bus..."
Lin Yuzhu felt so sympathetic after hearing this. Wow, in this comparison, she didn’t know who was more miserable.
So the last time he came back with such a grim look on his face, it was probably not only because he found out about his life experience, but also because he was stinking from the pig shit.
With the comparison of Zhao Yanshu, Lin Yuzhu's mood finally improved a lot. After that, when she was teased by colleagues at work, she could smile and make jokes.
…
Not long after, the second college entrance examination admission notices came in one after another.
This college entrance examination had little to do with them. Zhao Laosi, who originally wanted to take the exam, failed, and the only one left was her fourth sister, Lin Yuju.
Lin Yuzhu took the time to ask about her second sister, the fourth sister's situation. As expected, she failed the exam again this time.
My second sister even sent a telegram to ask, but the only reply was "no".
I don't know if it was because they were reluctant to send more in order to save money, but the second sister was still very disappointed when she received the telegram. She even came to tell her that the fourth child had actually written a letter home after the exam, saying that he probably wouldn't pass. When Mother Lin found out, she scolded her at home, saying that she was useless.
Lin Yuzhu sighed after hearing this. Although she had known the result long ago, it was still a pity. After all, she had specially sent some of Zhao Yanshu's review materials to her before, thinking that it would be of some help to her. It seems that she took it for granted.
Since he failed the exam, the fourth brother still has no chance to return to the city, so he can only wait for the last chance.
Among the people they knew, the wife of Zhao Yanshu's roommate Xu Mingyu passed the exam.
She was the wife Xu Mingyu married in the countryside. She did well in the exam this time. I heard that her score was enough to get into an undergraduate program in the province, but in order to come to Beijing to be with her husband, she applied for all the schools in Beijing and was finally admitted to a technical college in Beijing.
But in this day and age, even getting into a junior college is extremely valuable, so Xu Mingyu was very happy.
As for the others, they were not familiar with them.
Soon, the capital city fell into an atmosphere of joy and regret again.
During this period, Zhao Yanshu's first short story was published in a magazine.
The manuscript fee was more than 20 yuan, and Zhao Yanshu took it home and gave it to her as soon as he received it.
Lin Yuzhu was very surprised when she found out, "There are so many!"
But soon she stopped lamenting the increase in royalties and after she came to her senses she rushed to buy more than a dozen magazines as souvenirs.
