After returning, Chen Chen threw himself into the intensive work, and kept Comrade Xiao Li busy all the time.
As he was busy, time passed and it was October 21, 1977. Major media outlets across the country reported an exciting piece of good news.
That is, the college entrance examination, which had been suspended for more than ten years, was officially resumed, and the examination time was set for more than a month later.
Although the exam time was very tight, more than five million candidates still registered for the exam.
They include demobilized soldiers, educated youth who went to the countryside, factory workers and farmers who work on the land.
Because Liu Changan and Feng Qingqing received the news in advance, and Xu Miaomiao also prepared review materials for them.
They are so far ahead of others, so their grades are also very ideal. Although they are not the top students in the province or city, they are more than qualified to go to a good university.
Although Xu Miaomiao envied them for being able to get into university, she had no choice but to do so because she herself was not a good student. Not to mention Chen Chen, you could tell what his hobbies were by looking at his enthusiasm for work.
Since the opening of the college entrance examination, the spring breeze of reform has quickly blown across China, and everything is developing in a good direction.
Many intellectuals were rehabilitated and returned to where they previously worked and lived.
Xu Miaomiao also received a letter from Lin Shuhan. They had been exchanging letters for the past two years.
He said that his family had been rehabilitated and their former house had been taken back, but Lin Mo's body could not withstand the ordeal, so they planned to rest there for a while before returning to Beijing.
Xu Miaomiao had nothing to do in the house, so she made clothes for her children and dog. This has become her hobby.
She often makes clothes for the dog that are similar in style and color to those for her two children. Although people often say that she is a wasteful person, she has no choice but to let everyone in the family spoil her.
At this time, the two little kids had already learned to run, and were often taken by Little Mu to play in the yard.
Of course, most of this play was done by Chen Yuning, while Chen Yu'an basically just watched their childish games and criticized their childishness in his heart.
Chen Yu'an walked into the house with his hands behind his back like a little adult, and stood aside watching Xu Miaomiao make clothes.
Xu Miaomiao felt a little worried seeing him like this. Ever since he was exposed in front of her, the kid was too lazy to pretend. He only pretended a little when Chen Chen was at home.
Xu Miaomiao looked down at his gloomy little face, wondering who had made this little ancestor unhappy again.
Then I thought that this shouldn't be the case. With his dark and vengeful nature, if he had a grudge, we would have taken revenge on him right then and there!
Xu Miaomiao lowered her head and waited for a long time but he didn't speak, so she had to ask first.
"What's wrong, baby? Who was so blind as to provoke you?"
Chen Yu'an was already immune to this corny name and asked reluctantly, "Little Flower next door said she'll go to kindergarten after she turns four?"
Xu Miaomiao nodded in confusion. It was true. Their military compound had its own kindergarten, and most of the children of that age were there.
Chen Yu'an saw her nod, and his face turned even uglier, "I don't want to go!"
Xu Miaomiao asked doubtfully, "Why don't you want to go? There are lots of kids there to play with you."
Chen Yu'an didn't speak for a long time, and finally spoke.
"I find them childish, and... do you think I'm really a child?"
Although they tacitly kept this secret together, they never spoke about it openly.
This is the first time someone has taken the initiative to bring up this topic.
Xu Miaomiao tapped her fingers on the table. This was a habit she learned from Chen Chen. She liked to do this when she was thinking well.
After thinking for a while, she asked tentatively, "How old are you?"
Chen Yu'an knew what she was asking, so he said in a deep voice, "Sixteen years old!"
Xu Miaomiao was surprised. "She's only sixteen, so young, how could she be...?"
Chen Yu'an seemed not to want to talk about this topic. He just said "surprise" and didn't say anything more, and continued with the topic of kindergarten.
Xu Miaomiao thought for a moment and said, "But you are just a child now?"
"No matter what you looked like before, you are my baby now, a little friend, right?"
Xu Miaomiao's words made him a little dazed, and Xu Miaomiao took advantage of his distraction and pinched his face with the same malicious intention as before.
Chen Yu'an originally wanted to resist, but seeing the permanent scars on her hands, he let her do what she wanted.
The injury Xu Miaomiao suffered that year healed well and didn't leave any major problems. She just couldn't do delicate work anymore, and a scar was left on the back of her hand.
He stood there with a stern face and let her pinch him to her heart's content, then he turned around and left dejectedly.
Soon Xu Miaomiao heard Chen Yuning's crying. Xu Miaomiao felt a headache and wondered who this bad boy looked like?
Whenever he felt unhappy, he would deliberately make Chen Yuning cry, but the little fool Chen Yuning liked his younger brother very much.
Xu Miaomiao held her forehead with her hands in pain. She was sixteen years old, in puberty, so difficult to deal with!
After being interrupted by him, Xu Miaomiao lost her mind to make clothes. She thought about the news she received yesterday, and after thinking for a moment, she picked up her pen and wrote a letter to the Hexi Brigade.
With the reform and opening up, people were allowed to do business on their own, and many people saw the opportunity and went into business to make money.
Although Xu Miaomiao also had this idea, she had no choice but to leave the child at home without anyone to take care of him. The child was still too young and Chen Chen was so busy. She couldn't just leave the child at home without anyone to take care of him, right?
