Chapter 61 The Sun Also Rises



After waiting for a few days, there was no letter from the matchmaker, but instead a sad thing happened.

We were in class that day when suddenly the commune's loudspeaker sounded and the announcer read the "Letter to the People of All Nationalities" in a sad voice.

The world seemed to be paused, and Fu Weiyi, who was writing on the blackboard, broke his chalk.

She turned her head and looked outside the classroom.

The classmates in the class also looked outside. Wang Zhaozhao was stunned for a long time and unconsciously licked his dry lips.

Fu Weiyi's hand holding the chalk trembled. He came to his senses and walked out of the classroom with a sad face.

The students in the class also followed him out, and Wang Zhaozhao also went out.

Not only the third grade, but teachers and students from other classes also came out. Someone let out a sob, and it spread instantly, and a burst of sobbing was heard.

Fu Weiyi bent down, hugged her knees, and suddenly burst into tears.

She was one of the first educated youth sent to the countryside. From being full of enthusiasm and yearning, she was crushed by reality. She wanted to go back like crazy, but then she felt there was no hope of returning to the city, so she put down roots here...

Now, those who responded to the call to go to the countryside to build the rural areas have lost the backbone of their faith.

Wang Zhaozhao also burst into tears unconsciously. No matter which house in their village you went to, there was a portrait of the great man hanging in the main hall.

That was the sun for these poor people, shining light wherever it went. But now, their sun has died of illness.

The teachers were so overwhelmed with sadness that they had no intention of teaching anymore. Principal Liu announced the holiday with a nasal voice.

Today's way home from school was dull. In the villages and 'central squares' along the way, there were some old people sitting there. They were dull and silent, as if the whole world was shrouded in sadness.

The same was true in Hebian Village. Many elders were sitting on the river dam at the entrance of the village, and some were wiping away tears.

When Wang Zhaozhao and the others returned home, they found Xie Ailian and the others also sitting in the yard, looking dejected.

No one was surprised by the students' sudden return.

"Tsk! The world will keep turning without anyone." Liu Shanhua suddenly sneered and gave Wang Zhaozhao a contemptuous look.

It seemed that she was overthinking it. This Wang Zhaozhao was just not burned into a fool like she was in her previous life. She was just a dead village girl who was born and raised there.

As for the reason...

Is this the so-called butterfly effect? ​​Did her rebirth change the fate of some people?

In that case, both Wang Zhaozhao and Chen Zhaodi should thank her.

No one paid any attention to her, but Liu Shanhua felt very good about herself. Looking at the idiots in the yard, she suddenly felt a great sense of heroism from the bottom of her heart.

Just wait and see how this chosen girl who has seized the opportunity will make her fortune step by step, leave the riverside village, and reach the pinnacle of life!

Wang Zhaozhao was in no mood to care about Liu Shanhua's antics. The system asked her, "Host, you have memories from your past life, so you know all this..."

"But I hadn't thought about it before. It came crashing down on me, and my sadness... turned into a river."

“…”

The system didn't know how to respond to Wang Zhaozhao's words. It couldn't understand and didn't know how to comfort him.

However, "Look at that Liu Shanhua, not only is she not sad, she seems quite happy."

Wang Zhaozhao is too lazy to watch!

You don't need to look to know what Liu Shanhua is thinking. She is right. The world will continue to turn without anyone.

But Wang Zhaozhao thought, that couldn't take away everyone's sadness at the moment.

In the memories of my previous life, no matter what kind of judgment future generations have, they have never and will never erase its greatness in illuminating the poor people and bringing light and hope to everyone.

However, it is true that the sun rose as usual the next day.

All the sorrows were left in yesterday. The clanging gongs and whistles in the village told the members that we farmers have rice fields to tend, land to tend, and life to live. The most important thing is to fill our stomachs.

It was different for the students. Wang Zhaozhao and her classmates received a notice from Principal Liu through the production team's loudspeaker, informing them of the temporary suspension of classes and when they would resume.

Although he didn't have to go to school, Wang Zhaozhao did not delay his studies and even completed an exam in the system.

I passed, but didn't get full marks in either subject, so no reward.

The test paper was corrected by the system. When Wang Zhaozhao received it, he found that he had written a number and a punctuation mark incorrectly due to carelessness.

"Do you also deduct points for punctuation?"

"Host, this is to remind you not to be careless. Do you remember? On your first day of class, you were tasked with completing two summer homework assignments within a limited time, and you almost failed because of your carelessness."

"Is there an option to use intelligence points to increase attentiveness?"

"No."

“…”

What a straightforward answer.

Wang Zhaozhao complained, "Do you really have to do this? Even if it doesn't work, don't give such a harsh answer."

The request was unreasonable, but the system still gave its host face, "Since the host has made a request, this system will do its best to improve it."

So, when Wang Zhaozhao asked to retake the test, the system replied, "Baozi, you can't..."

Huh…!

Wang Zhaozhao felt a chill and hugged herself exaggeratedly, rubbing off the goose bumps on her arms.

Then he put his hands together and said, "The evil spirits retreat, and the system returns to normal."

"Host, you are such a capricious human being."

"...Please tell me why I can't retake the exam? Isn't it possible to retake the exam if I fail?"

"Host, you passed."

"……"puff!

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Wang Zhaozhao became withdrawn and withdrew.

The notice of school resumption had not yet arrived, but Wang Erju returned to her parents' home with two people.

When Wang Zhaozhao saw them, she felt inexplicably relieved. In addition to the matchmaker, there was also Comrade Qiao Li's mother. So, her fourth uncle's marriage was possible?

She smiled widely, called out sweetly, and invited people to come in and sit down.

While pouring water for the people, he called Wang Weiguo, who was writing, "Weiguo, go call grandma back... Tell her that Second Aunt is back, and that the two aunts from their village want to see if anyone in our village has chickens sitting on broods, so they can hatch some chicks..."

She could totally understand why others disliked her as a burden.

But during dinner that night, her fourth uncle told her grandparents seriously that even if they got married, they should live together and not separate.

Accountant Qiao's wife and the matchmaker exchanged a glance. "This granddaughter of the Wang family, has she become quite the spirit?"

Wang Erju was also surprised. When Wang Zhaozhao came out with a bowl and a teapot, she said, "Zhao girl, how did you know we wanted to hatch chicks?!"

Wang Zhaozhao chuckled, "I see you all have baskets, and you're covering them with blue floral cloth. They're practically eggs."

Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've probably seen a pig run.

The same routine applies to everyone in the area. When a man and a woman see each other, if the family of the man values ​​the woman, they will visit her and inquire about her character and family situation.

You definitely can't go there openly. If it doesn't work out, and you just cause gossip, you'll have to find a suitable excuse.

Just a few days ago, her grandmother went out with her fourth grandmother, who was not yet out of the fifth generation of mourning, to visit their granddaughter's family, using this excuse...
