This was good news. Wang Zhaozhao learned his lesson and told his family when he got home.
But because we don’t know what will happen next, everyone’s hearts are still hanging in the air.
But never mind, it’s vacation time, let’s pack up and go back to the riverside village.
I don’t know if it’s inevitable, but they’ve added villages less frequently this year than last year.
Wang Sibing became even busier. After Qiao Li became a full-time employee, she taught one or two more classes and often took students' homework home to correct after get off work.
When Wang Zhaozhao chatted with Qiao Li a few years ago, he had good thoughts. Qiao Li could take the college entrance examination this year, but the exam was from July 7th to 9th, and she only took the school's regularization exam at the end of January.
Less than half a year of preparation...
Fortunately, Qiao Li knew what to do and was preparing for next year.
So, by then, Wang Zhaozhao will take the junior high school entrance examination, and she will take the college entrance examination.
"I suddenly feel that our Hebian Village is quite beautiful." Walking on the dirt road, Wang Baojia suddenly sighed.
The road is beside a river, with green rice fields and high mountains on both sides.
"In two months, the rice will be ripe and look even more beautiful in its golden color." Xie Ailian couldn't help but smile when she thought of that scene.
"Plant a grain of millet in spring and harvest ten thousand grains in autumn." Wang Zhaozhao also sighed.
"Grandma, Sister Zhao is acting like a bookworm again." Wang Baojia directly complained.
Wang Zhaozhao raised his hand and said, "That's it, don't you understand?"
Wang Baojia covered his head and took two steps back.
Should I understand? I didn't listen carefully.
"Weiguo, tell your brother." Wang Zhaozhao patted Wang Weiguo's head.
"It means that as long as we sow a seed in spring, we can harvest a lot of food in autumn." Wang Weiguo answered obediently.
So, Wang Baojia received the reward of Xie Ailian's "care", well, a big reward.
Wang Baojia let out an "Ah", silently slowed down his pace, fell behind, and did not walk with the others.
Just walk if you want to walk, talk if you want to talk, what are you doing? !
Just like the last time I came back, Wang Xingwen and Wang Xingwu were not at home. They had gone out to work.
Now Wang Fangbing works in the city and earns a salary, but Chen Meiru is in the village with her children, so it is impossible for her to give the fields and land that have just been allocated to her household to others to cultivate.
There is nothing wrong with the two brothers Wang Xingwen helping with the work.
Wang Zhaozhao packed up her things and changed into... uh, an old dress she had left at home, which was now too short to wear.
I got rid of last year's old clothes and brought back a few.
It doesn't mean that you have to wear old clothes when you go back to the village. You can go into the mountains or go to the fields and wear old clothes without feeling bad.
Wang Xingwen and Wang Xingwu carried a load of pig manure up the mountain early in the morning and are now planting corn seedlings.
Since Wang Zhaozhao and the others have come, we naturally have to help.
"Then you and Baojia can plant corn, and we'll start from the beginning to fertilize the land." Wang Xingwen hesitated for a moment but did not refuse.
The main reason was that they were afraid that if they didn't give Wang Zhaozhao the opportunity to hoe the young seedlings, he would drag Wang Baojia and Wang Weiguo to apply fertilizer together.
To make fertilizer, they put the two loads of pig manure they carried next to the corn seedlings, but not right next to them, there had to be a certain distance.
Otherwise, he might have been burned to death.
If you say pig manure stinks, it really stinks.
The air in that area was filled with the stench of pig manure. Even though Wang Zhaozhao had smelled it many times as a child, he still felt a little overwhelmed at this moment.
"Some families build toilets next to the pigpen, and there is a main door that goes through the pigpen to the pit latrine inside..." Wang Baojia also felt it was too smelly and talked about something else.
Wang Zhaozhao was really impressed.
"There's no need to go into such detail."
"No, think about it this way. It seems that this stench isn't particularly stinky. It can't be compared to that stench."
“……!” he added.
Wang Zhaozhao was speechless. Wang Xingwu, who was in a remote area, asked, "Whose family are you talking about?"
There shouldn't be this kind of construction method in their village, right?
Like their house, although the toilet is built next to the pigpen, it is not the internal type.
Although it also stinks, it is definitely better than the one Wang Baojia described.
"That's how Ergou's family is." Wang Baojia replied.
"Okay! How do you know? Did you go to Ergouzi's house to take a shit? You actually took a shit in someone else's house..."
Wang Xingwu looked like he had caught you.
Wang Zhaozhao was speechless: She had expressed all her speechlessness today.
It's bad enough that the air stinks, but the topic also stinks.
"Weiguo, I'll dig a row of holes first. Please help me throw the corn seedlings into the holes. I'll add the clay later."
Hurry up so you can go back early.
At eleven o'clock, they went down the mountain.
"Brother, your stepmother didn't say anything weird to you, did she?" On the way, Wang Zhaozhao couldn't help but ask Wang Xingwen.
"Ah?" Wang Xingwen looked confused.
"That is... Oh, has uncle come back often recently?" Wang Zhaozhao thought for a moment and changed the question.
"I've been back twice in the past month or so." Wang Xingwen realized what Wang Zhaozhao wanted to ask and smiled at her. "Don't worry. No matter what, your second brother and I will finish junior high school."
"Ah? I don't have to finish junior high school, right?" Wang Xingwu said weakly.
In the past, because of Wang Zhaozhao's indoctrination, he didn't like studying but worked very hard, feeling that he had to at least finish elementary school.
Now he was thinking that if things really didn't work out, he would stop studying and let his brother continue. When he turned fifteen next year, he would ask his fourth uncle for help to see if he could find an apprenticeship job in the city. If possible, he could support his brother to continue studying.
Don't want his father's money!
Why did his brother raise his goal even higher? !
"Why not study? As long as your father is willing to send you and you can pass the exam... No! You must pass the junior high school entrance exam and you must finish junior high school." Wang Xingwen looked at Wang Xingwu and said fiercely.
"Yes! Brother, you are right to think so. You must not be too 'sensible'!" Wang Zhaozhao couldn't help but say.
It’s not like my family is so poor that I can’t afford to eat or go to school.
I want to study and my grades are good, so why not study?!
"What's the big deal about being a few years older? I won't talk about the past, but just look at the former educated youth in our commune. When the college entrance examination was reinstated, weren't there quite a few who were almost 30 years old who still took the exam?
If you do the math, even if you don't skip grades, you will be under 25 years old when you go to college.
Your stepmother used to not want you to study because of money, and now she still doesn't want you to study because of money. Because your father has a job, and because of your uncle's request, he must give each of you brothers five dollars every month.
You should know that your father is a driver and his salary is a little higher than that of ordinary workers, 46 yuan a month.
Give him 10 yuan, and there are still 36 yuan. He usually eats and lives in the factory, and he is a frugal person. He can make at least 30 yuan a month, which can be handed over to your stepmother...
She’s still not satisfied!”
Wang Zhaozhao became more and more angry as he spoke.
She didn't know that Chen Meiru was anxious to arrange a marriage for Wang Xingwen, so she didn't mention the money issue to Wang Xingwen and the others.
So angry! So angry!
