Chapter 102: No. 1 in the Country
Some people were enjoying the show, some were indifferent, and some showed sympathy.
The candidate was so anxious that he was about to cry. He bent over and searched carefully on the ground.
"Xiaogua, can you find his admission ticket?"
"Host, yes, someone did something bad and threw his admission ticket into the bushes on the right."
Seeing him so anxious, Li Qingge couldn't bear it, so he walked over and reminded him, "Go look in the bushes over there, it's possible that he fell there."
After hearing this, the candidate went to look for it immediately and found it in a few minutes. He was overjoyed and held the admission ticket tightly in his hand.
With a red face, he walked over and said, "Comrade, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I might have missed this exam."
He was truly grateful to Li Qingge, who was simply his lifesaver.
Li Qingge waved his hand nonchalantly, signaling him to go and line up.
She was willing to help because she heard from Xiaogua that the candidate had good character. If he was a person with bad morals, she would not care at all.
After checking the admission tickets, all candidates entered the corresponding examination rooms. Li Qingge looked around and didn't see anyone he knew.
To prevent cheating, each candidate has a separate table. There are a total of 25 candidates in this examination room.
Li Qingge placed the admission ticket in the upper left corner.
She took out the prepared examination supplies and waited for a while. The invigilator walked into the classroom with a stack of papers.
The room suddenly became quiet, and everyone glanced at the test paper in the invigilator's hand.
The invigilator first emphasized the examination room discipline. He stressed that cheating was not allowed. Once someone was found cheating, the candidate would lose the qualification to take the exam.
Then the test papers were distributed.
Li Qingge took the test paper and glanced at it. The paper was a little yellow and so thin that it was almost transparent. The quality could not be compared with modern ones.
In this era, the test papers had few questions and the questions were simple. Li Qingge finished them in less than 30 minutes. Due to the examination room regulations, she sat there and checked the test paper twice. She waited until more than 30 minutes had passed before she handed the test paper to the invigilator.
After leaving the examination room, I didn't stop and went straight back to the guesthouse.
After eating and taking a short rest, I rushed to the examination room.
The exam lasted for three consecutive days.
There were only a few people taking the foreign language exam, and most of the candidates returned to the educated youth center yesterday.
Wang Nana and others have also gone back.
It was already ten o'clock in the morning when Li Qingge left the examination room.
A conspicuous military green car stopped at the entrance of the examination room. Seeing her appear, Gongsun got out of the car and stuck his head out: "Qingge, get in the car, I'll take you home."
Li Qingge sat in the passenger seat with a surprised look on his face.
"Didn't you go back yesterday?"
Gongsun looked at her with a smile in his eyes: "Yes, I went back. I came to pick you up today."
Li Qingge: Well, she was a little touched.
The two returned to the guesthouse to get their things, and Li Qingge asked, "Where did this car come from?"
Gongsun replied, "My father's comrade-in-arms is in Qingbei County, and I borrowed it from him."
As soon as Li Qingge sat down, Gongsun handed over a small bag of dried sweet potatoes and White Rabbit milk candy.
[I didn't realize that this guy looks cold on the outside, but he's actually a really warm guy on the inside.]
Gongsun listened to her thoughts, the corners of his lips curled up. He just wanted to be Qingge's sweet man.
He brought up the past again: "Qingge, how was your test of me? Can you give me a chance?"
Li Qingge showed a barely perceptible smile at the corner of his lips: "Let's make a bet. If I can get the first place in the province in this exam, I will agree to be with you. If not..."
Gongsun hurriedly interrupted her and said, "There is no if. I believe in your ability."
Li Qingge was in a good mood: "You trust me so much?"
Gongsun's deep laughter echoed in the car: "I have always believed in you."
…
Li Qingge clearly remembered that there were more than 5.7 million candidates, but the admission rate was quite low, less than 300,000. The reason for the low admission rate was that there was little time to prepare for the exam, and many candidates had extremely poor scores, with some even scoring zero.
A month later, at the end of January, the candidates' results came out.
The Chinese New Year had just passed, and not long after Li Qingge returned to the educated youth point from the Li family, one day the village entrance suddenly became lively.
The team leader specially welcomed the county governor and the mayor into the village, followed by reporters from radio stations and newspapers.
When Captain Zhao of Xinghua Village heard the news, he also rushed over to watch the fun. In their eyes, those were the county magistrate and the mayor, big shots with connections everywhere. It was the first time they had seen such a thing in their lives.
"Comrade Li Jianguo, your village has produced a golden phoenix. Li Zhiqing scored full marks in the exam, ranking first in the province and even first in the country. He has brought honor to our city."
Li Jianguo's face was flushed with pride. He felt that this was the most glorious moment of his life.
Hearing that Li Jianguo was praised by the county magistrate and the mayor, Zhao Youcai felt jealous. Why did this old guy get all the good things? It was all because the educated youth in their village were not motivated. They didn't even make it into the top 50. They couldn't even eat hot shit.
Captain Li glanced at Zhao Youcai with a smug look, which made Captain Zhao so angry that he couldn't breathe and started coughing violently.
The county magistrate finally noticed him.
Li Jianguo quickly said, "County Magistrate Zhang, this is Captain Zhao from the next brigade."
County Magistrate Zhang looked him over and said, "Captain Zhao, you should learn more from Captain Li in the future, be more conscious, and train more talents for the country."
Zhao Youcai could only nod and bow continuously, saying yes repeatedly. He almost had a cerebral infarction, so he turned around and left when no one was paying attention. He decided not to look at it anymore. Out of sight, out of mind.
Wang Nana ran in excitedly: "Qingge, Qingge, come out quickly, the county magistrate, the mayor and the reporters are here, you got first place in the province and the country."
When Gongsun Shi Nian heard that she had got the first place in the exam, he felt happier than eating honey. This time, he had secured his partner.
When the team leader came with his men, all the educated youth stood at the gate.
The mayor and the county magistrate praised Li Qingge and also praised Gongsun Shi Nian, who ranked second in the country with a good score of 399, only one point behind Li Qingge.
When the captain heard that the first and second place in the country were both in their village, he was so happy that his tail almost rose to the sky. He could brag about this for the rest of his life.
Next, reporters from radio stations and newspapers interviewed Li Qingge.
The test results of the educated youths at the training center were all good this time, and everyone passed the exam.
Li Qingge, Gongsun, Wen Shaoqing and Wang Nana were all admitted to Peking University, Liu Hongmei was admitted to a normal college, and the rest were admitted to junior colleges and other inferior schools.
…
The news that Li Qingge ranked first in the country was published in the newspaper.
Soon the whole country knew about it, and Ding Xia naturally knew about it too.
She angrily locked herself in the house and smashed everything.
"System, come out here. Didn't you say you could change Li Qingge's life script? Why didn't she rank last in the exam?"
