Su Yuhe got up and put on her clothes, just as Jiang Lin finished packing Baosheng.
Su Yuhe wanted to take it and put thick clothes on Baosheng.
Jiang Lin hid for a moment: "Let me do it, you go wash up and eat, you still have to read."
"I won't watch it today. I'll take my time."
Su Yuhe had read the book thoroughly and had memorized it by heart. But for some reason, the closer the exam got, the lazier Su Yuhe became.
To use a joke decades later: the closer you get to the exam, the more restless you become.
After breakfast, Su Yuhe held Baosheng in her arms and sat in the main room with Ye Yunshu and the others, warming themselves by the fire.
Ye Yunshu glanced at Su Yuhe from time to time, and Su Yuhe couldn't even look at her: "Mom, do you have something to say to me?"
Ye Yunshu had been taking care of Su Yuhe for the whole morning. At such a good time, she didn't read a book, but stayed with them in the house to warm themselves by the fire.
Su Yuhe looked relaxed, which made Ye Yunshu anxious: "Why don't you read? I heard that those educated youth were memorizing books while working, and the lights at the educated youth work station were on until 2 or 3 in the middle of the night..."
Su Yuhe was different. Her daily routine didn't change much from usual. She would go to bed when she felt sleepy around eight or nine in the evening.
It is impossible to work until two or three o'clock in the morning.
Su Yuhe said: "I've been carrying things these days, and my head feels a little swollen. I want to slowly..."
When Ye Yunshu heard this, she said, "Then take it slow. Don't hurt yourself because of the exam."
The lunch table was full of vegetarian dishes, stir-fried cabbage, stir-fried shredded radish...
Su Yuhe paused and said, "Mom, has Brother Lin finished eating the meat he bought a few days ago?"
"No." Ye Yunshu put the last plate of fried potatoes on the table. "I heard that eating vegetarian food before the exam is good for memory. Let's eat vegetarian food for a few days first, and we will eat with you."
Su Yuhe was stunned, then smiled: "Mom, who told you this?"
Ye Yunshu exclaimed: "Isn't it?"
"Eating certain vegetarian dishes does help improve memory, but I need to replenish my energy now. Not only do I need to eat vegetarian dishes, but I also need to supplement protein and other things. If I don't have enough energy during the exam, it will also affect my performance."
Ye Yunshu was anxious: "I'll go stir-fry another meat dish."
Su Yuhe held her back and said, "Let's do it tonight. It's okay if you skip a meal."
After lunch, Yi Nu asked Su Yuhe mysteriously, "Su girl, I have something here that may help with the exam. Do you want it?"
Su Yuhe was surprised: "What is it?"
She really couldn't imagine what Yinu could have that would help with the exam.
Yinu didn't take it out in advance, but waited until the exam was about to begin.
Su Yuhe couldn't help but say, "Isn't this some kind of cheating thing?"
"Of course not," Yinu shook his head, "How could I cheat?"
Su Yuhe asked: "What is that?"
Yi Nu took out a stick of incense and said, "Light this thing when you enter or leave the examination room. Anyone who smells it will have their memory affected—"
"Hey!" Su Yuhe sat there feeling like she was being pricked by needles, and said with a stiff face, "Mother Yinu, that's not a good thing to do! It's harmful."
Yi Nu curled his lips: "It won't hurt your body."
This was something she had been tinkering with for a long time, and she had personally tested it and found it to be effective, so she gave it to Su Yuhe.
Seeing that Su Yuhe was not in a hurry to review, Yinu was quite anxious and thought that this incense could help a little.
Let Su Yuhe have fewer competitors.
Su Yuhe was helpless: "Mother Yinu, this is not right. Besides, my competitors are not just those in the same examination hall. There are millions of young people across the country waiting to make the leap!"
Yi Nu: "Anyway, the less one there is, the better—"
Su Yuhe sighed: "Mother Yinu, don't you believe me? I'm actually quite confident about the exam. Just wait and see."
The exam is just one day away, and almost everyone in the family is on high alert, as if they are the ones heading to the battlefield.
Shi Kangyuan didn't even bother grinding the medicine. He kept asking Su Yuhe if she had prepared everything and if she had forgotten anything...
Jiang Lin prepared everything for Su Yuhe to live with when she moved out. Ye Yunshu checked everything and said, "Living outside is not like living at home. Don't be bothered by it. You have to take everything you need. Although our home is close to the county town, it's not convenient to come back all the time..."
Jiang Lin had booked a room in the guesthouse earlier. He would accompany Su Yuhe to the exam this time. The two of them would stay in the guesthouse, saving the time of going back and forth, and would have more time to review.
It was cold outside, so Baosheng stayed at home and Ye Yunshu watched him.
Su Yuhe kissed Baosheng: "Be a good boy at home, okay?"
Baosheng was babble again, and I didn't know what to say.
I guess this little guy doesn’t know that his mother is going away for a few days. I don’t know if he will make a fuss when he comes to his senses and realizes it.
After making sure that nothing was left behind, Jiang Lin took Su Yuhe to Jinmu County.
When they arrived at the guesthouse, Jiang Lin had already booked a room, so he got the key from the workbench and took Su Yuhe directly upstairs.
But he was stopped by a girl next to him.
The girl's face was filled with displeasure, and her words were somewhat aggressive: "Didn't you just say there were no rooms? How come there are rooms just after these two people came and said a few words?"
She glared at Su Yuhe who was next to Jiang Lin and spoke to the staff.
The staff had been incredibly busy these past few days, and the girl had been making such a fuss that they were already losing their patience. "We booked a room several days in advance, and the room was fully booked yesterday. If you come here and make trouble today, there's no room left for you!"
The girl was embarrassed. "I'm just a girl, how can I ask for help from others? As a public servant, shouldn't you help the people solve their problems? I'm a college entrance examination candidate! If your mistake causes me to fail the college entrance examination, can you bear the blame?"
She moved away from the staff's position, as if she wanted to morally blackmail the staff.
The staff member was also a girl, who looked to be in her early twenties.
Unable to refute for a moment, Su Yuhe couldn't bear to watch any longer. The woman in front of her was obviously relying on her cultural knowledge to lower her status. What she did was to coerce others...
Jiang Lin frowned, looked at the girl, and wanted to pull Su Yuhe upstairs directly. Standing here for one more second would be a waste of time.
Su Yuhe said with a fake smile: "Sister, you are a comrade of the people, but we are not? Do we have to sacrifice others to take care of you? The staff said that the rooms were fully booked yesterday. If you come here to make trouble today, you might as well memorize a few more questions instead of this time."
The girl was embarrassed and stared at Su Yuhe: "Who, who said to sacrifice others? I didn't!"
Su Yuhe's smile faded: "Then what are you doing? Still blocking us, get out of the way."
The girl subconsciously stepped aside, but when Su Yuhe passed by, she reached out and grabbed Su Yuhe: "Comrade, you are here to take the exam too, right?"
