Chapter 332
"Then you have to pay close attention to their studies since they are young." Ye Fuyue said casually.
Zhong Lan, Cui Li and Wu Zhenzhen all nodded very seriously.
As the Spring Festival approached, schools began to send out their admission notices one after another.
Ye Fuyue was the first person in the entire compound to receive an admission letter.
The admission notices of that era were very simple, just a piece of paper with the school name printed on it, the student's name and enrollment date handwritten on it, and a few red seals on it. But even this simple piece of paper made the Shen family excited, and several people took turns to pass it around.
"This is the university admission letter!" Shen Shun held the admission letter, his eyes full of admiration.
Chen Guifeng took the opportunity to scold him: "You should also study hard and try to get into university so that you can get an admission letter."
Haohao and Ranran stretched out their arms curiously and wanted to see the admission letter as well.
The two little guys shouted noisily: "I want to see it!" "I want to see it too!"
Shen Yao took the admission letter and refused to show it to them: "This is an admission letter. If you two accidentally damage or tear it up, your mother's exam will be in vain and she won't be able to go to school."
The two little guys puffed up their cheeks unhappily and promised, "We will be very careful and won't break anything."
"Really?" Shen Yao stared at the two little guys with a serious look.
The two little guys nodded very seriously.
Only then did Shen Yao show the admission letter to the two little guys.
Although neither of the two little guys could understand the words on the letter, it did not stop them from staring at the admission letter with sparkling eyes, as if they could recognize the words on it. It also did not stop them from letting out exaggerated exclamations of "Wow!"
Their appearance made Ye Fuyue, Chen Guifeng and the others laugh.
After reading it, Haohao handed the admission letter to Shen Yao and solemnly instructed: "Dad, please keep it well for Mom. It's very important. Don't damage it."
Haohao and Ranran acted like little adults, making everyone laugh again.
Chen Kang said with some envy, "That's great. It's a foregone conclusion that Fu Yue can go to college."
Chen Guifeng knew what her eldest son was envious of and worried about, so she comforted him, "Your admission letter will surely arrive soon. You and Fuyue are the only two people in our compound who scored over 300 points. You'll definitely be fine."
Ye Fuyue nodded in agreement.
Although Chen Kang felt the same way, he couldn't completely let go of his worries until he received the admission letter.
Fortunately, not long after, Shen Kang's admission letter arrived.
Seeing that thin piece of paper, Shen Kang finally showed a relieved smile on his face.
Aunt Donghong came over to congratulate them after learning that Ye Fuyue and Shen Kang had both received admission letters.
Chen Guifeng asked her, "Has Xiaomei received the admission letter?"
"Not yet." Aunt Donghong sighed. "She hasn't had an appetite these past few days. She's been waiting at home all day for the postman to come. Sometimes she even goes to the post office to ask if there's any letter for her."
"Alas, these children have suffered so much. Without receiving the admission notice, no one can feel completely at ease," said Chen Guifeng.
"Yes." Aunt Donghong sighed.
After receiving their respective notices, Yu Wanying, Yu Tong and Wu Qiaoer all came to the slum to find Ye Fuyue to share the good news.
Wu Qiaoer was the happiest. "I never thought I'd get an admission letter from Hsinchu University! I had already made up my mind that if I didn't get in this year, I'd try again later."
Ye Fuyue was happy for her: "I told you, it won't be a big problem."
But Wu Qiao'er felt sorry for Ye Fuyue: "Fuyue, you scored so high in the exam. You shouldn't have applied to a university in your province. You should have applied to a university in Beijing or Shanghai."
"I think Zhuda University is not bad. Besides, I don't want to be too far away from home. I want to study at a university near my home so that I can go home every weekend." Ye Fuyue was quite satisfied.
Thinking of Ye Fuyue's situation, Wu Qiaoer also felt that Nianzhu University was indeed the best choice.
Ye Fuyue had no particular attachment to universities in Beijing or Shanghai. In her previous life, she had attended university in Beijing, and while that university was a key one, it wasn't as good as Zhuhai University.
She felt that it was great to be able to study at Zhuda University in this life.
A few days before the Spring Festival, Miao Xiaomei finally received the admission letter.
Aunt Donghong was so happy that she immediately ran over to share the good news with Chen Guifeng and Ye Fuyue: "I got it! Xiaomei also received the admission letter!"
"That's great! Congratulations! I hope you will have a good new year!" Chen Guifeng said with a sincere smile.
"Yes! We also have a college student in our family." Aunt Donghong's face was full of joy.
Seeing that almost everyone in the compound had received their admission letters, except Qian Qiang, Aunt Yue began to mock Qian Qiang in her words and deeds.
"The admission letters have almost been sent out, but your Qian Qiang hasn't received one yet. I'm afraid he wasn't admitted."
Aunt Qian and Qian Qiang had been feeling uneasy for the past few days. Seeing everyone else receiving their acceptance letters, but they still hadn't, they were becoming increasingly unsure, wondering if they had been rejected.
At this moment, hearing Aunt Yue's sarcastic words, Aunt Qian couldn't even say a word of rebuttal.
"I saw that several people whom Qian Qiang had helped tutor before received their admission letters, but your Qian Qiang didn't. Tell me, what's going on? The students passed the exam, but the teacher didn't. This is so ridiculous!" Aunt Yue covered her mouth and laughed.
"You said that after the new year, the school will know that Qian Qiang's test scores are not even as good as the students. Will they no longer want Qian Qiang?" Aunt Yue said again.
"You old bitch, what nonsense are you talking about! Even if my Qian Qiang fails the exam this year, he can still take it again in the future!" Aunt Qian retorted in frustration.
"Yes, if you don't pass the exam this year, you can still take it again in the future. But I don't know if you can keep your job. If you lose your job, you can only prepare for the exam at home. I'm afraid no female comrade will be willing to date him." Aunt Yue said sarcastically.
Aunt Qian was so angry that she brought a basin of water from the house and poured it directly at Aunt Yue's feet.
Aunt Yue took several steps back and shrilled, "Be careful! My son bought me these shoes! If they're broken, I'll ask you to compensate me!"
"Who told you to complain in front of my house? What's wrong with me pouring water in front of my own door? If you are not convinced, just get away!" Aunt Qian rolled her eyes and went into the house with the empty basin.
Fortunately, after a few days, Qian Qiang finally received the admission letter.
When Aunt Qian saw the paper, she was so excited that she cried. Qian Qiang's heart, which had been hanging for nearly a month, finally settled down.
Aunt Qian wiped away her tears and went to show off to Aunt Yue.
