The few days I spent in Hebian Village were particularly joyful.
So I just blinked and it was over.
The villagers actually knew that Qiao Li was going to take the college entrance examination, and they said all kinds of things about it.
In general, there are more people who are pessimistic.
Not only behind her, there was also an old woman who ran up to Xie Ailian and started to complain.
"I don't understand what you're thinking. Why would you allow Qiao Li to take the college entrance exam?"
"Isn't it great to be a teacher? You know, your fourth child has never been to school for a single day."
"Aren't you afraid that after she gets into college, she'll look down on your fourth child? Are you going to divorce me?"
"If you ask me, the right thing to do is to have a second child as soon as possible."
“…”Blah blah blah.
Xie Ailian was very good-tempered and did not even use a big bamboo broom to chase them away. She just told them:
"When you are eating your own food, don't bother yourself with other people's affairs."
"Look at the kind of life I live, and what kind of life you live?"
"Before you come to me and tell me what to do, think about what you eat and what you wear."
“…”
Comrade Xie Ailian will not suffer any loss when it comes to arguing with others.
But in fact, the old woman's words still had an effect, and she gradually began to have doubts in her heart again.
However, she would not show it in front of Qiao Li, and would only talk about it to Wang Dahai before going to bed at night.
Wang Dahai can handle this.
Therefore, there is no war in the Wang family.
…
July 7th, light rain.
At the Wang family's house in Dayun Lane, Qiao Li had an extra breakfast than everyone else - two eggs and a noodle.
As they were getting ready to set off, Wang Zhaozhao noticed that Qiao Li looked nervous, so he asked her, "Aunt Si, are you nervous? If you are, take a deep breath or pinch your thumb or thumb. Or wear a rubber band on your wrist and snap it when you get too nervous."
"Okay, I'll prepare a rubber band." Qiao Li nodded with a smile, and really turned back to the house to get it.
She was really nervous.
After waiting for a few years and preparing for another two years, a new policy was introduced this year, requiring candidates to take a preliminary exam in advance to take the college entrance examination.
It is equivalent to a screening first. Only after passing the preliminary examination can you take part in the formal college entrance examination.
She was lucky enough to pass the preliminary exam. If she had failed in the end, she didn't know if she would have the confidence to try again.
At seven o'clock, everyone went to take the exam together.
The examination location is at Chikuyama County Middle School. Don’t worry, it only takes 20 minutes to walk there.
When they arrived, the school gate was already crowded with people.
"Check again to see if you have brought everything, including your candidate ID and stationery..." Wang Sibing reminded Qiao Li.
Qiao Li didn't give a perfunctory answer. She checked everything carefully before saying, "I've got everything. I'm going in now. You guys can go back."
"We'll watch you go in."
"Oh well."
Qiao Li smiled and waved to everyone.
Wang Zhaozhao clenched his fist, "Fourth Aunt, come on!"
Wang Chaohui, who was held by Wang Sibing, followed suit and shouted, "Aunt Si, come on!"
Well……
Qiao Li laughed and raised her hand to pinch the little guy's chubby face, "I'm your mother."
"Mom, come on!" The little guy reacted quickly.
"Okay!" Qiao Li nodded vigorously and turned away.
She can enter the examination room 30-45 minutes in advance. She has to find the corresponding examination room, queue up, verify her identity, and be searched.
Wang Zhaozhao and the others waited until she disappeared among the crowd of examinees before going home.
Everyone sat in the courtyard under the pergola and drank a glass of cold water. Wang Zhaozhao asked Wang Sibing, "Uncle Si, are you going out to work today?"
"Of course I will." Wang Sibing nodded.
"I thought you would say, 'I don't have the mind for that.'" Wang Zhaozhao said with a smile.
Wang Sibing raised his head to look at the sky at a 45-degree angle and said leisurely, "Even if I don't have that mindset, I still have to be busy. My wife and my eldest niece are so amazing..."
"Fourth Uncle, you are worried that my Fourth Aunt will look down on you after she becomes a college student and you will feel pressured... There is no need to involve me in this matter, right?" Wang Zhaozhao also looked up at the sky.
Gray.
Wang Sibing snorted and laughed, "Am I worried about that? My stress is because you're all going to Beijing. I have to buy a house there anyway, and let your grandparents bring Dudu to accompany you, right?!"
“…”
Wang Zhaozhao opened her mouth and said, "Okay!" She still hoped that everyone would go to Beijing together.
"Fourth Uncle, from what you said, it seems...you're not going?"
"I will definitely go too... and visit you often."
"It would be very tiring to travel back and forth by train."
"What's that little bit of hardship? I, your fourth uncle, used to be a good worker in the village, earning 10 work points a day."
Wang Sibing became proud and showed his fist.
Although Wang Zhaozhao really didn't want to hit him, he still had to say, "A hero never brags about his past achievements. Can you still climb the mountain opposite our village carrying a load of pig manure now?"
“…”I think I can.
Wang Sibing glared at Wang Zhaozhao, skipped the topic, and continued with the previous sentence, "This is only temporary. I will definitely find a way to make a living in Beijing in the future."
Wang Zhaozhao knew this and believed that her fourth uncle could do it.
The current Wang Sibing is no longer the Wang Laosi who used to work as a farmer in Hebian Village.
Besides, if you have capital, it will be relatively easy to find a way to make a living.
Wang Zhaozhao patted his shoulder and said earnestly, "Comrade Wang Sibing, keep going. I'm very optimistic about you. You have a bright future."
