During this year, Qiu Yuling brought back two groups of experts or technical backbones from Beijing.
Moreover, with the care and attention of many parties, Zaohua Installation Factory quickly completed the project and got into operation.
In early June, with the publication of the last paper in Li Xingyao's crustal deconstruction series, he finally obtained the title of professor. His work focus shifted more towards academics, rather than his previous running around.
The couple both felt that this change was appropriate. After all, Tuanan needed his parents' company during his growth stage.
He consciously gave Qiu Yuling the flexibility and freedom in his work.
Later, because of Qiu Yuling's relationship, he accompanied her to Jiangcheng University to teach geology lectures for two months every year.
The reason why he said it was because of his wife was not to use any backdoor or anything like that, but because he accompanied her and didn't want to waste time. His knowledge and scientific research achievements just happened to be what this field urgently needs.
Jiangcheng University is eager to recruit talented people, and it will not let go of such a convenience.
Time passed quickly and it was National Day.
Li Xingyao received a secret transfer order from above and joined the first batch of question setters. He asked why Qiu Yuling was not there and said, "No, that's why."
In fact, this session was rather hastily organized. Originally, the education departments of various provinces, cities and autonomous regions organized relevant experts, scholars and outstanding teachers to set the questions. Qiu Yuling can be considered half an educator, but her identity is too special. She was out of contact for two months, and too many things were delayed.
So it is a pity that I cannot participate in such an important and meaningful event.
But Li Xingyao is different. He graduated from university and got a job just before the movement. In the early days, he worked on the front line, and later he focused on both practice and theory. Now he can be one of the first question setters, and based on his ability, he is the most qualified person.
The factory’s radio station has been broadcasting relevant news every day.
Dear worker friends, I now bring you an extremely important piece of news! Not long ago, the country made a major decision that will change the fate of countless people and affect the future of our country!
After years of suspension, the national authorities have decided to resume the college entrance examination. Workers, farmers, educated youth who went to the countryside or returned home, demobilized soldiers, cadres, and recent high school graduates who meet the admission requirements are welcome to apply voluntarily. They can choose several schools and subject categories based on their interests and strengths.
This is exciting news! The door to knowledge is once again open to aspiring young people, and the path to dreams, once interrupted, is being paved anew. This demonstrates our nation's desire for talent and respect for knowledge, and it's also a significant step toward prosperity and strength.
Dear young people, seize this precious opportunity, pick up your books, and work hard for your own future and for the development of our nation! Let us together embrace this new beginning, cultivate more outstanding talents for our country, and contribute our strength to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation!
Please spread this important news to others so that more people can know the good news of the resumption of the college entrance examination. I wish every aspiring young person can achieve excellent results in this exam and realize their life dreams!
The factory’s loudspeaker broadcasts the news every afternoon before lunch.
This news shocked everyone.
Even the Li brothers and sisters were feeling uneasy and couldn't make up their minds.
After dinner, they discussed it and rode their bikes to their aunt’s house to hear Qiu Yuling’s opinion.
It was just a coincidence that Qiu Yuling was planning to stay in Willow Alley today.
Li Qingmei was shocked when she suddenly saw several nephews and nieces coming, fearing that something big had happened.
I thought about almost everyone at home who was worried about me, and the more I thought about it, the more anxious I became.
Li Yingjun knew at once that his aunt had misunderstood. "No, aunt, please don't overthink it. We came to ask my cousin about the college entrance examination. We are a little undecided."
Li Qingmei finally let out a long sigh, "Well, have you eaten yet? I'll go make some noodles."
Cousins Li Yingfen and Li Yingtao stopped their aunt on the left and right, "Aunt, don't be so busy. We all came here after dinner. Let's sit for a while and chat for a while when our cousin comes back..."
Li Tunan pulled her grandmother's hand and insisted on going out to pick up her mother. Li Qingmei had no idea what to do. She couldn't just leave everyone in the house and run away with the host.
But the little girl didn't listen. She thought that nothing was more important than picking up her mother from get off work. She was so strong that she tried to pull her mother out.
"Her father, stop busying yourself and come out quickly. Take Nannan to the alley entrance to pick up her mother."
Qiu Jianshe said "Hey" and walked out from the backyard. He greeted his nephews and lifted little Li Tunan above his head and said, "Let's go. Grandpa is taking my Nannan to pick up mom~"
In the past, when he visited his sons' homes, he could never stay there. After just a few days, he would want to go back to Qiu Village. Now, since Qiu Yuling forced him to stay here last winter, he has been feeling more and more comfortable.
Especially Li Tunan, just like Qiu Yuling when she was a child, he poured all the love that was trapped due to financial difficulties at that time into the little one.
Seeing her uncle carrying the little one onto his shoulders and rushing out, Li Yingtao was extremely envious. "My aunt and uncle have become younger and younger in recent years!"
Her parents are both overworked.
Li Qingmei responded with a smile, "Not working and just resting day after day seems to be a little better than the past two years, but it's not good either. My bones feel like they're rusted.
Your uncle is always looking for trouble, hiding in the back room, fiddling with this and that, and whenever he has a moment to rest..."
I used to respect my aunt's family, but now when they talk to my aunt and uncle, they flatter them even more, praising my cousin's ability in every word. My aunt and uncle are now enjoying the good life...
As they were talking, Qiu Yuling had already returned.
"Huh? Didn't you see your dad and Nan Nan? They went to the alley entrance to pick you up."
"Yes, Dad took her for a ride on his bicycle." Qiu Yuling put down her bag and washed her hands first, then came out to greet everyone one by one.
Li Yingjun was the oldest, and he spoke first, "Cousin, the factory broadcast and the newspapers all said that the college entrance examination has been resumed. We really can't make up our minds..."
They all meet the requirements, but are reluctant to give up such a good job, and are also afraid that if they fail the exam, they will lose everything.
How could Qiu Yuling not know this!
She brought the peanuts and the winnowing basket to the yard. "Have some! These are new peanuts from this year, sent from the experimental fields..."
No one was in the mood, but they all picked one up.
