Chapter 135: Resuming the College Entrance Examination



The autumn harvest began, and Sun Yuqi and others also started to get busy. The autumn harvest is the most tiring and busiest time of the year. Because of her special abilities, Sun Yuqi is physically stronger than these real farmers. However, Sun Yuqi did not perform too well. She did not rely on work points to make a living, so she behaved very normally, similar to other educated youth.

After nearly a month of busy work, the autumn harvest in Zhengjiatun came to an end in October, and all that remained was some finishing work.

That day, Sun Yuqi and several educated youth were busy pickling vegetables in the yard, but they saw the team leader Zheng Chengwei walking into the educated youth yard with a smile on his face.

Zhang Jianlin is now the person in charge of the educated youth compound. When he saw the team leader coming, he hurriedly stood up and took out the stool.

"The captain is here, what's going on?"

Sun Yuqi actually already had an idea in her mind. She remembered that the book seemed to say that in October, a document was issued nationwide saying that the college entrance examination would be resumed, but she forgot the exact time and only remembered that it was October.

After Captain Fructose sat down, he took a sip of the tea brought by Zhang Jiansong, put down the big teapot, and said with a smile.

"Congratulations, everyone! I received news this morning that the country is preparing to resume the college entrance examination. All of you educated youth can take it now."

The captain's words made all the educated youth present stunned. It took a long time for them to react.

Sun Yuqi said with a smile.

"Captain, are you serious? Now that the college entrance examination has been reinstated, we can all take it and return to the city."

Liu Jingjing and Qi Aiguo looked at each other with a fiery look in their eyes. For these educated youth who went to the countryside, if they wanted to escape from the hard life there, the only way was to get into college so that they could leave the countryside and return to the city they had been longing for.

"Thank you, Captain, for telling us. I don't know when the exam will start. We haven't had our books for years. If we want to get good grades, I don't know if we have enough time."

The captain stood up upon hearing this.

"According to our current information, the exam should be in December. It's only a little over a month away now, so you should start studying hard! You educated youth won't be assigned any farm work during this time, but you'll need to gather firewood yourselves. The weather is about to get cold, and you'll suffer if you don't have firewood."

After Zheng Chengwei finished explaining the matter, he went back. The educated youth looked at each other at first, then quickly finished the work in their hands, walked into the house, and took out the books they had always treasured.

Sun Yuqi did not have any worries about these aspects. She had never stopped learning since she came to Zhengjiatun. Besides, her study in the past two years was not in vain, so she was not nervous at all.

Liu Jingjing and Qi Aiguo have been studying a lot during this period, because Liu Jingjing borrowed books from Sun Yuqi some time ago. So although the couple are very happy and nervous, they are very confident in their hearts.

However, the Zhang Jianlin brothers were a little embarrassed at this time. In the past two years, they saw Qi Aiguo, Liu Jingjing, and Sun Yuqi studying all the time. The two brothers even laughed at them privately, saying that it was useless to study. Who would have thought that the country would resume the college entrance examination. The two brothers basically had not read any books in the past two years. If they took the exam, they really didn't have much confidence in passing.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jianlin smiled bitterly.

"It seems we are short-sighted. Look, among all the educated youth in this courtyard, we are the only two who have never read a book or studied. Now, the opportunity has come, but we are about to lose it."

Zhang Jiansong didn't think so and said after thinking about it.

"Brother, even though we didn't prepare in advance, the worst that can happen is that we won't pass. I think once the college entrance examination is resumed, it can't be just for this one session! Even if we don't pass this time, we can still take it again next year. The worst that can happen is that we'll be a year later than them."

When Zhang Jianlin heard his brother say this, he was stunned. Yes, once the college entrance examination is resumed, it will definitely not be held for only one session. It will probably be held every year in the future. At most, his brother will be one year late. He has waited for so many years, so why should he care about this one year?

"Well, you're right. How about this? Let's go find Qi Aiguo these next couple of days to see if we can study with them. This will help us improve our progress. Otherwise, when they get admitted to university and leave, we brothers will probably be the only ones left here, and there will be no one for you to ask for advice."

After the two brothers had discussed it, they went to Qi Aiguo's house. After discussing it, they finally called Sun Yuqi over. Now the five of them had reached an agreement that during this period of time, several people would study at the same time and ask if they didn't understand something.

Sun Yuqi still remembers the matter of Qiao Jianguo and how the two brothers Zhang Jianlin helped her, so she also strongly agrees that the two brothers should read and study with her and others.

Finally, Fang Zhou and Chu Yan came over to read and study with them.

As time slowly entered November, the weather became colder. During this period, the educated youth would get up in the morning and go up the mountain to collect firewood, and then start reading and studying in the afternoon.

After breakfast, the few people walked towards the mountain with axes and ropes in their hands. As soon as they reached the village, they heard a noise.

"The voice sounds like Lanlan's mother-in-law's voice."

Liu Jingjing's words reminded Sun Yuqi of Wu Lanlan. Wu Lanlan was similar to herself in her first life. Both of them came to the countryside to replace the daughter of their scumbag father. One year after going to the countryside, she married Zhang Lin, the nephew of Accountant Zhang. What was the reason for the quarrel at this time?

Suddenly, Sun Yuqi thought of the college entrance examination. "Could it be that Wu Lanlan's mother-in-law doesn't want Wu Lanlan to take the college entrance examination?"

Sun Yuqi's words surprised everyone, but they soon understood. It was probably because Wu Lanlan's mother-in-law was afraid that Wu Lanlan would go to college and never come back. A few days ago, there was a commotion in Liushu Village next door because a male educated youth wanted to go to college, so he wanted to divorce his wife here so that he could go back to the city.

It is estimated that this incident scared Accountant Zhang's sister-in-law, Zhang Lin's mother, and that is why she opposed Wu Lanlan's college entrance examination. However, this matter is not something that other people can interfere with.

This matter really depends on Zhang Lin's attitude. Everyone shook their heads and didn't stay any longer. They didn't have much time left, as the exam would start in a month. If it weren't for the fact that it was too cold here in the Northeast, people would probably freeze to death if they didn't come to collect firewood. They wouldn't come to collect firewood either, because they felt that even if they didn't collect firewood, their study time would not be enough.

Instead of stopping, the group went straight up the mountain. After a morning, each of them brought down two bundles of firewood.

Sun Yuqi looked at the limited firewood and smiled bitterly.

"Even if we get into university, I think we won't be able to leave here until January next year at the earliest. That's still two months away. Let's collect more firewood!"
