Chapter 358 The Golden Phoenix Flying Out of Qingshui Village

After seeing off the county chief and the provincial officials, Secretary Zhao rubbed his hands excitedly.

I didn’t expect that Lizhan’s wife is so competitive and motivated!

Which rural woman doesn't rely on her husband for support after getting married and having children?

He is Lizhan and the head of the group. To put it bluntly, even if he is too lazy to sleep on the kang every day, he still can't feel hungry.

But how many things has Xia Juanjuan done over the years?

It is true that I did not do much farm work, but I did enough to get the minimum work points. Besides, if I did less, I would get fewer work points. I was not like those who slacked off and complained about earning fewer work points.

Besides farm work, didn't she raise the six kids well? The house was kept in good order, and there was no fuss about the food and clothes.

We also went hunting in the mountains, and we shared the wild boars several times. We also shared the bean sprouts and tofu that we grew ourselves, and his family ate them many times.

This time, a golden phoenix really flew out of the sparrow's nest.

The secretary was also happy.

Just thinking about it makes me feel a little lonely. I'm afraid the golden phoenix will never come back after it flies away.

However, this loneliness was soon washed away by joy.

Li Zhan and Xia Juanjuan are not the kind of people who would forget their roots. Even if they leave the village, they will definitely come back often to visit!

Secretary Zhao put his hands behind his back and planned to take a stroll to the commune primary school.

A student ranked fifth in the province came out of the village. As the school principal, he had to be the first to talk to the children in the village and encourage them to work harder and become the second or third Xia Juanjuan in the college entrance examination in the future!

As he thought about it, Secretary Zhao became worried again. There were four teachers in this school. Except Zhu Xiaopeng, all of them were educated youth and had taken the college entrance examination this year.

Zhu Xiaopeng and Fang Zhenzhen both have good grades, so they should be able to pass the exam.

I haven't reviewed the remaining two well, so my score is not over 200, so I have no chance. But I heard that I will take the exam again next year.

After this, by next year, there will be no teachers in the school. How can teaching continue?

He had been to school, but even if he was asked to teach, the most he could do was teach Chinese. He didn't know anything else, like math. He was completely in the dark and there was nothing he could do.

I went through all these places in my mind and thought about what kind of educated people there were, but I couldn't think of anything!

Secretary Zhao couldn't help but sigh.

At this time, I happened to see Li Jie and Yang Qiushi coming down the mountain together, and I guessed that they were going to the mountain to check out those heavy medicinal herbs.

In the past two years, because they grew medicinal herbs under the guidance of Yang Qiushi, and then let Li Jie and Wu Feng secretly sell them on the black market, and distributed the money to the villagers, everyone's life has become much better.

Not only will I no longer be hungry, but I can even afford to eat meat every now and then!

However, everyone was cautious and tacitly pretended to be poor outside.

Otherwise, if other brigades or communes became jealous and reported us, we would lose everything.

Secretary Zhao greeted them and happily told them that Xia Juanjuan had ranked fifth in the province.

How could Yang Qiushi and Li Jie not be happy?

Yang Qiushi slapped his thigh and kept saying, "Great! Great! That girl is really great! When she came to me to ask questions about the parts of the medical book that she didn't understand, I knew that this girl was definitely not an ordinary person!"

Li Jie doesn't understand what "the fish in the pond" is. He just knows that those who can take the college entrance examination are all powerful.

Now Xia Juanjuan is not only amazing, but also ranked fifth in the province!

The whole province! In the past, when there were temple fairs in rural towns, the crowds were only a few thousand people. Now it’s a province, so how many people are there?

"My fourth brother's wife is amazing! I'm so happy for her and Liezhan!"

Secretary Zhao smiled and said, "If Lizhan's wife comes back to the village, tell her that it's the New Year. Our village has been busy this year, with a good harvest and we're making money. Then we can get a pig and two sheep from the livestock raised in the village, cook mutton soup in a big pot, and prepare a banquet of braised pork and ribs. Let her come back to eat, and celebrate her getting fifth place in the province!"

Li Jie agreed readily.

Secretary Zhao walked over with his hands behind his back.

Just after I walked past him, my mind suddenly buzzed and I remembered that he was busy looking for intellectuals in the commune! Didn’t their village already have intellectuals?

Not to mention Yang Qiushi, he was born into a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, and he also studied abroad and learned Western medicine! Who can compare to his culture?

The other people in the cowshed were also educated people from the city.

Now that the college entrance examination has been relaxed, the restrictions on Yang Qiushi and others are not so strict anymore. Isn't it a good opportunity to hire them as teachers?

Secretary Zhao thought about all this, but he didn't chase after them. He planned to go over and talk to them after he had gone to school to encourage these kids.

In the evening, Secretary Zhao wandered over to the cowshed and told Yang Qiushi about this.

Yang Qiushi naturally agreed to this. Being a teacher - although teaching primary school students is a bit of a waste of talent, it is still more respectable than doing farm work with a hoe, isn't it?

Xia Juanjuan was in Beijing and had no idea that people in Hebei Province were reluctant to let her go.

After checking her scores and completing the physical examination, she waited for the acceptance letter with peace of mind.

Because I thought it might be sent from Beijing, I wrote the address of the Fu family.

But after waiting for more than half a month, nothing came, and the whole Fu family was very anxious.

The passing lines for both Beijing and Hebei Province have already been set.

The admission requirement in Hebei Province is 240 points. Even if you pass, it’s still a question of whether the school you go to is good or bad.

The score line in Beijing is higher, at 280. After all, Peking University and National Tsing Hua University are both nationally renowned universities, and their score lines are both 330.

No matter where, Xia Juanjuan was sure to get into a key university.

Moreover, because key universities give priority in admission, Fu Nanzheng helped to inquire and found out that many candidates have received admission letters from Peking University in the past few days!

Xia Juanjuan wondered if it was because they didn't use the same test papers that she couldn't apply for admission across provinces. However, she had asked about it when she applied before the exam, and they said it was possible.

Since it was in Beijing, Xia Juanjuan and Fu Nanzheng went to the Beijing Admissions Office to ask.

The teacher in charge also confirmed that candidates from other provinces and cities would be accepted. As long as they had applied to Peking University and had enough scores, they would be admitted.

Xia Juanjuan was depressed.

The teacher in charge asked Xia Juanjuan's name and score. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "So that Xia Juanjuan is you? What a coincidence. Your situation... is special. The Education Bureau in Hebei Province refused to release you, so your organizational files and other things cannot be transferred over, and the political review cannot be done, so we can't do anything. The score is enough."

Xia Juanjuan and Fu Nanzheng were speechless.

Fortunately, I came here to ask, otherwise I might not receive the admission letter even after school starts!
