As the days passed, Gu Sinian and Su Ying's lives returned to normal.
Gu Sinian spent three years infiltrating the enemy's ranks and made contributions to the anti-drug police, which led to his direct promotion to division commander, making him the youngest division commander ever.
As the years passed, the day finally arrived when the college entrance examination was reinstated.
The news spread throughout the residential compound, and those with some basic education... buried themselves in their studies day and night, hoping to get into university and have a chance to change their fate.
The Gu and Qin families also sat down together to discuss the future.
Su Ying and Du Yunying are both highly educated, but neither of them has any intention of taking the college entrance examination.
These words shocked everyone present.
Gu Sinian didn't understand the reason either. "You really don't want to take the college entrance exam? I heard that the country is resuming the college entrance exam this time to select talents. College students are much more valuable than those from worker-peasant-soldier universities, and they are guaranteed job placement."
Su Ying wasn't particularly interested in the allocation of the package, but the fact that the student was a college student was something she could consider.
In the future, the threshold for academic qualifications will become higher and higher, so the first batch of college students are still very valuable, which makes her a little tempted.
After the college entrance examination came the reform and opening up... She was more interested in doing business, which took up a spot, and she still had to go to university.
This... is a difficult decision.
But how could she tell her family that the college entrance examination was being reinstated and that the reform and opening up would follow?
"But after registering for the college entrance examination, you have to go to university, which takes four years. What will happen to the children in the family?"
Gu Sinian pointed to Wang Ma, who was busy not far away, "Isn't it because Wang Ma helps take care of the children? The children have grown up with her since they were little. Everyone knows each other well, so there's nothing to worry about."
Wang Ma, who was wiping the table not far away, nodded repeatedly. "Going to school is a good thing, it concerns one's future, so we still need to consider it carefully. My son is also preparing for the college entrance examination. I heard that after the college entrance examination, he will be guaranteed a job and live off the government for the rest of his life."
Qin Fang nodded, took Du Yunying's hand, and asked, "The college entrance examination doesn't restrict your identity now. You can apply to medical school. Don't you like being a doctor?"
"Getting into a good medical school means becoming a doctor right after graduation. Isn't that your dream all along?"
Du Yunying still had a little worry, "But what will happen to you and Chengyi if I get accepted? University is a four-year program, and even with the guaranteed job placement, we might not be assigned to the same place."
Qin Fang thought it was something serious, but it turned out to be nothing serious. "What's the big deal? After you graduate from medical school, I'll use my connections to get you transferred back."
Du Yunying stared at the man in disbelief, then looked at her in shock, "Didn't you hate it when your family used your name to do things outside? How come..."
“You’re my wife, it’s perfectly normal for us to ask the organization to assign us together. They’re not heartless people.”
"Besides, even if you can't transfer here, I'll transfer with Rizi to be with you. My position is high, and it's just a matter of saying a word to transfer me anywhere."
Du Yunying was persuaded by Qin Fang and is preparing to take the hospital entrance exam.
Gu Sinian saw that things had been resolved with his father-in-law and mother-in-law, so only his own wife was left to deal with.
"With your exceptional talent in medicine, why don't you also apply to medical school and keep your mother-in-law company?"
Su Ying refused without even thinking, "I'm not very interested in medicine. If I had to choose, I think business school would be a better option."
“You’re right, a diploma is important in the future. I’ve decided to go to business school.”
Everyone was stunned by these words, but then they thought about it and realized that it wasn't unreasonable. After all, the Su family had been in business for generations, so it was understandable for Su Ying to take the path of business.
"Have you thought it through?"
Su Yingzhan nodded solemnly, "I've thought it through."
"But you have such a high talent for medicine, are you really willing to give up studying medicine?"
“Someone in the Su family has already studied medicine, so I’ll go into business and bring the Su family back to its peak.”
"It's good that you've figured it out. I respect your choice."
Everyone was taken aback, not understanding what Su Ying meant. Everyone was thinking that Su Ying would choose a child from among the children to study medicine.
After all, Su Ying has five children, and someone will surely like medicine.
Only Gu Sinian, Su Ying, and Du Yunying understood the meaning behind this.
After discussing it, everyone went through a period of intense review. On the day of the college entrance examination, Su Ying and Du Yunying went to the designated examination room to take the exam.
After finishing the exam, the two took a deep breath and started comparing answers. They both felt they had done very well.
On the day of the admission results announcement, Su Ying and Du Yunying's names appeared on the list. Both of them had been admitted to their ideal universities, which were the ones they liked.
On the first day of school, the two military green jeeps headed in the same direction, but after arriving in Beijing, they drove in different directions.
Su Ying's car was quite lively. Five children sat in the back seat, chatting and looking at the scenery outside the window, having a great time.
Gu Sinian and Su Ying sat in the front, occasionally glancing at each other and exchanging sweet smiles.
"After I go to school, I'll have to trouble you to take care of the five children."
"Don't worry. You go and study hard. I'll take care of things at home. I can manage all these soldiers, so why should I be afraid of five little brats?"
"Besides, isn't Wang Ma there to help me?"
"Oh, right. What your grandparents mean is that your parents have remarried. After you take me to school, you can take the children back to see your grandparents."
"If I really don't want to live under the same roof as Ms. Li Yaxian, I'll go back to the Qin family home. I've already talked to my grandparents about it."
Gu Sinian nodded. In truth, he didn't really care much about what happened between Gu Yuanhong and Li Yaxian.
Since they're remarrying today and having a small celebration at home, why not bring the five kids back to visit?
It's understandable that the grandparents miss their great-grandchildren and want to see them; it has little to do with Li Yaxian.
He heard that Li Yaxian would occasionally visit Qiao Xiyan's children at the orphanage. Sometimes he really suspected that Qiao Xiyan was her biological daughter and that he was adopted.
But he and his grandfather looked seven or eight parts similar, so he ruled out that possibility.
The young wife says a lot: Don't worry about whether others love you or not. If they don't love you, it's because you're not good enough.
No, it's because you're so wonderful that it's their loss if they don't love you.
How can I expect everyone to love me when I'm not a Renminbi?
it's out of the question.
His depression from the previous years has faded considerably since his new wife appeared.
If Li Yaxian doesn't love him, then why should he love her? He should just treat her like a stranger.
During holidays and festivals, we usually eat at the same table, so he'll give us face and sit down for the New Year's Eve dinner. As for the rest, let it all go.
He has the whole world now that he has a young wife.
Sometimes I think my wife is right. There's no need to waste your energy on yourself. If you can't have it, it's never meant to be. There's no need to hold on to it tightly, or you'll only suffer.
