Yu Manwu thought about it for the whole afternoon and finally went to find Ruan Chenxi.
Ruan Chenxi was somewhat helpless, "What do you want me to do?"
"I have good news to tell you." Yu Manyu saw her helplessness and felt bitter.
"There is news that the college entrance examination may be resumed. You should prepare in advance."
Ruan Chenxi was stunned and looked at him in astonishment, "You...you are not kidding, are you?"
"No, this was sent by Xiao An." After he finished speaking, he seemed to see stars in her eyes.
Dazzling.
"Thank you for telling me."
She said this sincerely.
If the college entrance examination is really resumed, knowing it in advance and being well prepared to go to the examination room are two different things compared to going to the examination room suddenly.
Yu Manwu smiled, "You're welcome. I have something to ask you. I don't know if it's true or not, so just listen. I have something to ask you. If you really recover and pass the exam, where will you go? Will you go back to Shanghai?"
Ruan Chenxi was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, I will go back to Shanghai."
She knew what Yu Manwu felt for her, or rather, it was rare for someone in the entire Red Star Brigade not to know this.
She had rejected him openly and covertly, but he still refused to give up. However, he was not that annoying. He was just an ordinary young man trying to please a young woman. He had grasped the right balance. If she really wanted to settle down here, he would be her first choice. But the problem was that she didn't want to settle down here.
So she could only refuse.
She was also touched by his kindness, as not everyone could persist in doing so for years.
But although she was touched, if she really stayed here, she could see at a glance that her future would be full of hardships, and she was unwilling to do so. Even if she became a formal worker here and her life improved, the improvement would be limited.
It's so far away from where she grew up.
Ruan Chenxi wanted to go back.
"If I also get admitted to a university in Shanghai, would you be willing to give me a chance?"
Looking at those blazing eyes, Ruan Chenxi lost his voice for the first time.
Does Yu Manwu mean that he wants to go to university in Shanghai with her?
Ruan Chenxi's heart was pounding. If a person is willing to do so much for another person, one can imagine how much he cherishes her, especially since she knew that he only graduated from elementary school. It must have taken a lot of courage for him to ask this question.
She found it difficult to shake her head. The young man in his 20s was full of energy and had the spirit of doing what he said.
If he could really get into a university in Shanghai...
Ruan Chenxi narrowed her eyes, not sure if she was talking to herself or him, "I want to stay in Shanghai for a long time in the future. If I want to find a partner, I will look for someone who shares the same ideals as me, who has similar ideals and topics to talk about, and who has the same goals as me."
Yu Manwu couldn't wait: "I can, you know I have three sons in my family, I am the second oldest, I want to go to other places to develop, as long as there is a future, they will not hinder me, Shanghai is a big city, I can go, they will not object."
In other words, he could settle down with her in Shanghai.
Ruan Chenxi felt that if she shook her head now, she might regret it later. If she went back, she would definitely be able to find someone with a better family background than him, but would they be so sincere to her?
Ruan Chenxi looked at him deeply. "If you also pass the exam in Shanghai, I am willing to reconsider our relationship. I want to emphasize that I am not agreeing, I will just reconsider it."
This sentence was hope for Yu Manyu. He thought there was darkness in front of him, but it turned out there was a beam of light. He wanted to catch this beam of light.
His tone was a little excited. "I'm not very good at studying, but I will work hard. If there is anything I don't understand, can I come and ask you? I promise not to do it too often so that others won't misunderstand our relationship."
He emphasized: “Only occasionally.”
Ruan Chenxi agreed.
Hearing her agree, Yu Manwu's teeth were so white that people couldn't help but squint their eyes.
Ruan Chenxi heard him continue, "I'm going into town to buy study materials. Do you want to come with me?"
"If we're together, I can bring it back for you. Also, I don't know if this news is true or not, and it's not convenient to spread it. Can you please not tell anyone?"
"I'm not asking you to hide it from them. I just want to tell you that you can reveal a little bit for a while. Because if someone finds out and spreads the news, it may affect Sister Xiao An." Yu Manyu explained.
"I understand. I'm grateful that you told me." Ruan Chenxi also understood the risks involved. If the news were to spread, it would easily lead to misunderstandings, and might even make some people agitated. For example, if the educated youth were ecstatic to hear the news, but ended up being overjoyed, she wondered if they would go crazy after seeing hope in despair and finding out that hope was just the moon in the water.
Lin Houpu was not the only one who was well-informed. Yu Xiangan, who worked in a bookstore, easily discovered that the number of people coming to their bookstore to buy tutorial books had increased, and high school textbooks were quickly out of stock or even out of stock.
Then Liu Hengbo seemed to have heard some news and advised her to study harder, and said some ambiguous words about looking forward to the future and reinstating the college entrance examination.
That's the hint.
It seems that the news has spread to a small area.
Yu Xiangan knew that he should hurry up.
Recently, the twins feel that their mom and dad are not as close to them recently. In the past, they went to school during the day and went home at night, and their parents would play with them for a while. Even if one of them was not free, the other would make time to accompany them. But now they can only write and draw on paper together. While mom and dad are reading under the lamp, the two of them are also scribbling with drafts and pencils. Although they can play like this, they still prefer to stack blocks, play cards, and play cars.
But seeing how hard their parents work, and since they are good kids, they just play by themselves first.
After more than a month, the news was basically widely known and was even published in newspapers, but it was published in the form of a question mark. But not long after the newspaper was published, an official notice came down that the college entrance examination was officially resumed.
The college entrance examination is scheduled for the end of June.
Compared to the previous life, it is half a year earlier.
By the time the news was confirmed, their bookstore was almost sold out. People came every day to ask about various tutoring books, so Yu Xiangan resigned.
Liu Hengbo did not stop him. He said that if they were destined to meet again, they would meet again.
Yu Xiangan didn't understand at that time.
Lin Chuanbai followed suit and resigned.
There are many people taking the college entrance examination, but few of them are already working and quit their jobs to take the exam.
They both became famous in a small circle.
I don’t know how many people said they were fools behind their backs.
After the news was confirmed, it was time to register. Their registration went smoothly. After they registered together, an admission ticket was issued to everyone after a while. When the day came, they could take the admission ticket to take the college entrance examination.
Every time Yu Xiangan went out to buy things, he could hear people talking about the news about the college entrance examination, whether they had candidates in their families or not.
It goes without saying that for those who have candidates in their family, this is a major matter concerning their future. If there are no candidates now, will there be no candidates in the future?
After the college entrance examination was resumed, they had one more option.
Of course you should be happy about a road with a bright future.
Yu Xiangan and Lin Chuanbai seemed to have returned to their senior year of high school. The two gave each other wrong, difficult and tricky questions, and then gave each other basic questions, switching back and forth. The goal they both set was to go to famous universities, so their scores would definitely not be low. They had to work hard.
It was just like in my senior year of high school, I put in all my energy.
At times like this, time seemed to pass particularly slowly, and finally the day of the college entrance examination arrived. Both of them felt that it had finally come.
You don’t have to worry after the exam.
The test was Chinese in the morning. When Yu Xiangan received the test paper, he wrote his name first, then went through the paper, and felt relieved as he had a rough idea of the answer.
As expected, the first test paper after the resumption of the college entrance examination was relatively loose. This should be because many people neglected their studies during this period and did not have the conditions to study. The test paper was too difficult and many people could not answer it. Therefore, for many basic questions, if you want to increase the score, you have to look at some of the big questions at the end. However, there are not many such big questions and the score they account for is not too large, so it is relatively friendly overall.
I feel relaxed after finishing writing.
It was still early when she finished writing, so she carefully checked it twice to make sure everything was correct. Then she waited until the deadline to hand in the paper. Yu Xiangan didn't want to be the one who stood out.
Lin Chuanbai did the same thing. They all finished writing ahead of time, but stayed there until the end.
Coming out of the examination room, many people had sullen faces. Even if they didn’t say that they did poorly, one could tell from the expressions on their faces that they didn’t do well either.
Yu Xiangan and Lin Chuanbai kept a straight face in such an environment. If they showed their joy, they might be beaten by other emotional candidates.
Except Chinese, they did well in other subjects as well.
After the test, they estimated their scores. They were not far off by much. It all depended on some subjective questions, such as the composition and the political quiz, to see how many points the marking teacher gave them.
According to estimation, the difference between the two people's scores is not big, and will not exceed 20 points at most.
Lin Chuanbai has a high chance of being admitted. Even if his grades are a little lower, the possibility of being admitted is not low. Why?
Because priority will be given to positions in short supply, such as doctors and teachers.
Both of these positions are in short supply.
After taking the exam and estimating the scores, the next step is to fill in the application form.
The application form is filled out during this period before the scores are released, which causes many people to worry about errors. They may get high scores but lack confidence, and end up applying to a bad school, which is a pity.
Some people think they did well in the exam, but in fact they did not, and even though they applied to a good university, they were unable to go. In order to avoid this situation, many people are very cautious and would rather underestimate than overestimate.
Yu Xiangan took the liberal arts exam, while Lin Chuanbai chose the science exam. In addition to the three required subjects of politics, Chinese, and mathematics, Yu Xiangan also took history and geography exams, while Lin Chuanbai had to take physics and chemistry exams.
They have different directions and have set their goals long ago. Except for their first choice, the others are universities in the capital. If they are not admitted to their first choice, they will go to these schools, which will not be too bad.
Lin Chuanbai and Yu Xiangan both have goals, but Yu Xiangqing and others who are far away in Baishi County do not have such firm goals.
After they compared the scores, they faced a difficult decision.
How to fill in the application form?
Yu Xiangan gave them a known list for them to choose from, but they were still confused.
Some people want to travel far away, while others don’t want to be too far away from home and hope to stay within the province so that it is convenient to go home.
Needless to say, Yu Manwu followed Ruan Chenxi and chose Shanghai. He chose a technical college in Shanghai, and also a normal school where he might be given priority for admission. He worked day and night during this period. Whenever he encountered something he didn't understand, he would ask Ruan Chenxi, and sometimes he would ask Yu Xiangyan and Wen Ruzhen. He was very serious and took cram classes like crazy. Compared with others, he had more time to prepare, and when he did the questions, he got all the basic ones right.
But he didn't get the big question at the end right.
His foundation is too poor, and this short period of time cannot bring about a qualitative change.
When Yu Manwu checked his scores, he knew that his score was in danger, but he would not give up just like that. If he could not pass the exam this year, he would take it again next year!
Yu Xiangyan, Wen Ruzhen and Wen Yizhen all chose the capital because it is the country's economic, political and cultural center, has the best universities, and is close to Nanxi Farm.
Yu Xiangqing and his wife chose a university in the province, and Yu Xiangqing chose journalism as his major.
This is quite surprising, she wants to be a journalist.
No matter how long they struggled, they finally submitted their application forms and were just waiting for the results.
The days of waiting for the results are undoubtedly frustrating.
Yu Xiangan and Lin Chuanbai both resigned from their jobs to take the college entrance examination.
Now that the college entrance examination is over, they have some free time - that's what outsiders think.
In fact, they were shipping goods. They had stockpiled some food before, and now they had free time, so they could sell it and exchange it for other things. Because they were going to the capital, they would not be back in the short term, so they collected a lot of local specialties here and stored them in the warehouse. The warehouse has outstanding preservation capabilities, so they can eat them anytime they want.
This period of time should have been a time of nervously waiting for the results, but they turned it into a period of busy making money and stockpiling goods. There was a little bit of nervousness at the beginning, but it disappeared later.
Back home, Yu Xiangqing and his friends didn't have such a good attitude.
This time, many people from the Yu family took the college entrance examination, such as Yu Xiangqing and his wife, Yu Xiangyan and his wife, Wen Yizheng, Yu Manwu, and Yu Xiangan and Lin Chuanbai in Qincheng. There were a total of 8 people taking the college entrance examination. With so many people, at least one or two of them would pass, right?
Yu Qingshan’s requirements were not high. No matter who it was, whether they were surnamed Yu or his son-in-law, as long as they could pass the exam, he would buy firecrackers and set them off.
During the anxious wait, Yu Qingshan was the first to receive a telegram from Yu Xiangan. The content of the telegram was very concise, with only two lines, saying that she had received an admission letter from Aoki University, and Lin Chuanbai had also been admitted to Capital Medical University, and they would report on a certain day.
They have all received their admission letters!!!
Yu Qingshan immediately took out the firecrackers he had prepared and set them off with a crackling sound.
Famous school! Capital city!
His daughter was admitted to Aoki University!
Yu Qingshan went to share the good news with everyone, and then he even let himself get drunk.
He was happy, really happy.
I was worried about her before, but now she is living the happiest life.
Okay, that’s great.
While Yu Xiangqing and the others were happy for Xiao An, they were also anxious because they had no news yet.
Speak of the devil, the next day, Yu Xiangqing received an admission letter from a university in their province.
However, Yan Peng did not receive it. They applied to the same university, and it seemed that he would not be admitted. He and his wife were mentally prepared for this. When they compared the scores, they knew that his estimated score was not as high as Yu Xiangqing's.
Because when he heard the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination, he didn't take it too seriously, thinking that it shouldn't happen so soon, and didn't pay much attention to studying. Now one of them has received the admission letter and the other has not, so they are faced with a problem, should they live apart?
After discussion, Yu Xiangqing decided to go to school there first, while he continued to work here, and then wait until next year to take the college entrance examination. Then the two of them could be together again. Moreover, with a year, Yu Xiangqing could also figure out the situation there and bring the child over.
They are in the province, so their admission letters came quickly, but others' admission letters were not received so quickly.
With Yu Xiangan's frequent remarks before that the college entrance examination would be resumed sooner or later, some thoughtful people took these words to heart and performed well in the exam.
For example, Wen Ruzhen and Wen Yizhen.
When the two of them heard Yu Xiangan say that the future would be like this and that, they hoped it would come true the most, because then they might not have to bear such a heavy burden. They hoped to restore their reputation through studying.
After they both finished the exam, they checked their scores and found that one of them had the best result.
Wen Yizheng is one step ahead of the two siblings in that he has no family burden and he spends his free time after work reading.
However, his results were unexpectedly good; he was ranked first in their city.
For this, the city’s newspapers and leaders of relevant education departments came to give him rewards.
Yu Shunwen felt like a pie in the sky had hit him on the head
The No. 1 in the entire city is from their Red Star Brigade, and is an employee of their Red Star Paper Mill!
What luck this is, this guy is not only good-looking, but also smart. It really makes them proud!
Although he is not a local villager, he has settled here. He will get angry with anyone who says that he is not from their village.
Wen Yizheng received an admission letter from Capital Renmin University. Not long after, Wen Ruzheng's admission letter also came. She was admitted to Capital Normal University.
Then there is Yu Xiangyan, who was admitted to a college in the capital.
He chose to accept the adjustment. His chosen major was history, but he was adjusted to mathematics.
Seeing the admission letter, Yu Xiangyan felt both happy and sad. He was happy that he did not fall behind. Although it was a junior college, it was still a university, which was already a great achievement for the Yu family. However, mathematics...
He touched his thick hair. Will he become bald after finishing college?
No no!
Don't do that!
Being bald is so ugly, he will definitely be disliked, he needs to think of a solution.
…
When Yu Qingshan learned the news, he felt that he needed to go back and burn incense to his ancestors. After careful counting, he found that three people in his Yu family had been admitted to university. Including his daughter-in-law and son-in-law, there were five people in total. What does this mean?
Yu Changyou was the one who laughed the loudest and smiled at everyone he saw.
By the time they graduate, the Yu family will have changed their status. If they can't be called a scholarly family, it would be an injustice to the school they were admitted to.
The admission rate of the Red Star Brigade was surprisingly high compared to other brigades. They had nearly 30 educated youth, 25 of whom took the college entrance examination. The rest were either too old and gave up this path, or they had started a family here and were unable to sign up for the college entrance examination for various reasons.
Among the educated youth who took the college entrance examination this time, Ruan Chenxi received the admission notice from Shanghai University of Posts and Telecommunications as she wished. In addition to her, two other people received admission notices.
But Yu Manwu failed the exam.
With his score, he would have a chance of getting into some urgently needed majors in remote schools, but he applied to Shanghai.
Yu Manwu waited for a long time but he didn't come, so he bought some wine and got drunk in his room for three days. When he came out three days later, the decadence on his face was no longer visible. He found Ruan Chenxi and said, "I will take the college entrance examination next year. Are you willing to wait for me for a year? Can you please not find a partner so quickly within this year?"
Ruan Chenxi found himself disappointed, disappointed that he didn't pass the exam.
There is a lot of uncertainty now. Can he really pass the exam in a year?
His foundation is too poor.
He was cramming at the last minute, and many things could not be filled into his mind in time.
"I will study hard in college and I won't think about personal issues in the short term." This is the truth.
This is hope for Yu Manyu.
He's not out yet.
Yu Xiangan and Lin Chuanbai’s telegrams did not go into detail, but their rankings were also quite good.
Lin Chuanbai ranked third in the province in science, and Yu Xiangan ranked second in the province in liberal arts.
Rank among the best.
After receiving the admission letter, they started preparing. Lin Houpu was very excited. He was the most skeptical before, but now he was also the most excited.
He immediately wrote a letter to a comrade-in-arms in the capital: "He and I were comrades-in-arms before, and later he was transferred to the public security bureau over there as deputy director. You can go find him, he is familiar with the area. If you want to bring your children over there, you will definitely not be able to take care of them when they go to school. If you need to find someone or a daycare center, he should be able to introduce you. He can also recommend you a place to rent."
"Thank you, Dad. Can I buy a house over there?" Lin Chuanbai asked. Lin Houpu looked at him and said, "... Are you planning to sell the house here and buy another one over there? You're not coming back to live here?"
"No, we don't plan to sell this house. We'll keep it for now. We may need it in the future. When our children go to school, their household registration will follow the school's collective household registration. We are worried about where their household registration will be. So we bought a small place. It doesn't matter if it's a little shabby or out of the way. As long as we can settle down there, the two little ones will be settled there."
Lin Houpu nodded. That’s true.
Since you want to keep your children with you, it is best for both children to be registered together.
"Do you plan to develop in the capital in the future?"
"right."
The two of them really wanted to buy a courtyard house in the Second Ring Road, but they didn't have that much money right now, so they could only hold back for the time being.
First, rent a house between the two schools for 4 years.
"The development prospects over there are better than here." Lin Duzhong understood very well. When he was young, he also wanted to go out and venture into the world.
Lin Houpu sighed and nodded, "I'll tell him to help look for it. He's more familiar with it than you."
"What does he like?"
It's troublesome to trouble others. Even if you have a good relationship with them, it's not good to go empty-handed.
"He likes to drink and eat meat."
This hobby is very straightforward, popular and real.
Before leaving, the two also gave some small commemorative gifts to others, such as their colleagues.
Before Yu Xiangan left, she asked Liu Hengbo about Nanxi Farm. Liu Hengbo said that they were more relaxed there now and life was going well, so she didn't need to worry.
At this point, Liu Hongbo smiled and said, "We will meet again if we are destined to do so."
Yu Xiangan: “???”
Liu Hengbo said nothing and smiled mysteriously.
They packed their things and boarded the train to the capital. Looking at the scene receding outside the window, both of them were a little excited. It had finally come to this.
The college entrance examination has been resumed. Are we still far from reform and opening up?
