Jiang Xiaomei was very happy. She actually loved reading since she was a child and had aspired to become an excellent teacher since she was in school. However, because the college entrance examination was cancelled, she thought that there was no hope of realizing her dream in this life. As a result, she heard Jiang Ning say that the college entrance examination might be resumed, so she found Jiang Ning that night and told him her idea: she wanted to study and she wanted to take the college entrance examination.
She finally got the chance to be a teacher again.
So Jiang Ning, Jiang Weimin and Jiang Xiaomei played at home for a day and took the bus back to the city the next morning.
Before leaving, their grandparents and uncles and aunts repeatedly told them to be careful and take good care of themselves in the city.
Two hours later, the three people finally arrived in the city. Since Jiang Weimin and Jiang Xiaomei had never been to the city and had never been in a car for a long time, the two-hour drive was not easy for them. Both of them were very carsick.
Jiang Ning was very busy, taking care of Jiang Weimin and Jiang Xiaomei at the same time.
Finally arriving in the city was a relief for Jiang Ning. After the three of them got off the bus, Jiang Ning wanted to call a cart to take them home, but the brother and sister refused to take the car again. So the three of them had no choice but to walk back from the station.
No, fortunately it wasn’t too far. The three of them walked for almost an hour and finally reached home. Jiang Weimin and Jiang Xiaomei finally recovered.
When they walked into the house, Chen Yanzheng and Wan Zhifang were washing vegetables by the sink.
It was Wan Zhifang who spotted Jiang Ning: "Jiang Ning, you're finally back. After you left, Chen Yan and I were too busy every day."
After Wan Zhifang said this, she discovered that there was a man and a woman behind Jiang Ning, both of whom looked honest and simple.
"Jiang Ning, what is this?" Wan Zhifang looked confused.
Could this be a handyman hired by Jiang Ning? Although the crackdown on "speculation and profiteering" is not as severe now, she is still too high-profile.
No, I still have to talk to her, Wan Zhifang thought to herself.
"Second brother, little sister, you are here too." Before Wan Zhifang could say anything, Chen Yan beside her spoke.
Fortunately, Chen Yan spoke first, otherwise she would be embarrassed. Wan Zhifang looked embarrassed.
"Ahem." Jiang Ning cleared his throat.
"Zhifang, this is my second brother Jiang Weimin, and my sister Jiang Xiaomei. We are very busy right now, so they came to the city to help me." Jiang Ning introduced to Wan Zhifang.
Then she turned around and introduced them: "Second brother, little sister, this is my good sister Wan Zhifang in the city."
After hearing Jiang Ning introduce herself, Wan Zhifang smiled at them and said, "Hello, second brother and little sister. Jiang Ning and I are the same age. I'll follow her and call you second brother and little sister. You don't mind, do you?"
"How could that be? I haven't thanked you for helping Ning Yatou and Chen Yan yet." Jiang Weimin said with a smile.
"It's okay, it's okay. Jiang Ning and Chen Yan are usually very nice to me, so if there are any problems, I will definitely help if I can."
"Hello, Sister Zhifang." Jiang Xiaomei also greeted Wan Zhifang.
Jiang Ning looked at Chen Yan, who looked exhausted. "How are you, Chen Yan? Have you been doing okay these few days since I was away?"
Chen Yan: "It's okay. After you left, it was thanks to Zhifang that she came to help me. Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't be able to finish it by myself. I still have to thank Zhifang a lot."
"Chen Yan, please don't say that. You are my good friends. How can I not help you?"
"Okay, okay."
"Chen Yan, where are Aunt Pei and Uncle Zhou? Why aren't they at home?" Jiang Ning looked around but couldn't find them.
"Oh, they went to their friends' place today."
After the three of them put down their simple luggage, everyone started helping Chen Yan and the others wash the vegetables.
"Chen Yan, this time I went back to help the village chief cook, and I got an opportunity to work as a chef in the government, but there is an exam, so I will go to sign up this afternoon. Then you can go set up a stall with your second brother and little sister, and let them learn from you."
"Government? Exam?" Chen Yan was a little confused. How could he get a stable job just by helping to cook two meals?
Jiang Weimin couldn't help laughing when he saw Chen Yan's expression, and then he told him the whole story again.
Wan Zhifang, who was listening nearby, said, "Jiang Ning, your cooking is so delicious! Even the secretary praised you. You even got a chance to work in the government because of these two meals. No, I want to eat your cooking too. Let me taste how delicious it is."
Jiang Ning couldn't help but smile at Wan Zhifang's expression and said, "Okay, no problem. I'll make you a big meal after I finish my exams."
"Okay, it's settled then. I'm looking forward to your feast."
Originally, it would take two people a whole morning to wash the vegetables, but after three people joined, they finished it quickly.
Jiang Ning also packed up and prepared to register, while Jiang Weimin and Jiang Xiaomei helped Chen Yan at home.
"Come on, Ning girl. I believe you can do it." Jiang Weimin said.
Jiang Xiaomei: "Sister, I believe you."
"Come on!" Chen Yan also said.
"Oh, you all are so nervous. I'm just here to register today. The exam hasn't happened yet. If you want to do your best, I'll talk about it during the exam." Jiang Ning said with a smile.
Jiang Weimin: "That's right, then Ning, you should go and come back early after you register."
"Okay, I'm going out then."
Wan Zhifang also went with her. She planned to add some sweet potatoes as they would sell better in the evening. Now was a good time to sell sweet potatoes.
Soon the two separated, and Jiang Ning came to the door of Secretary Fang's unit alone.
Jiang Ning looked at the old man sitting at the door and said, "Hello, uncle. I'm here to sign up to be a canteen chef. I'd like to ask where I can sign up?"
The old man looked her up and down, and then saw that she was a girl. "Girl, are you here to help your brother register? You can't register on behalf of others. You need your brother to come and register on his own. Today is the last day. You have to go back quickly and ask your brother to come on his own. Otherwise, you will miss this opportunity."
Jiang Ning couldn't help but laugh after hearing this, so he explained, "Uncle, I just came here to sign up to be a chef. I signed up myself."
After hearing what Jiang Ning said, the old man said, "You, a girl, want to be a chef? It's very tiring."
"It's okay, sir. May I ask where the registration is?"
"Go straight in from here, then turn right and walk to the end. You will see a purchasing office at the back and register there." The old man pointed in the direction to Jiang Ning.
