Chapter 359 The Notice Has Come

After returning to the Fu family, Fu Nanzheng and Xia Juanjuan explained the situation.

Fu Nanzheng said with amusement and helplessness: "What kind of thing is this? Even if we give priority to the key colleges in the province in selecting students, we can't do it like this. Doesn't this affect the lives of people?"

After listening to this, Fu Weixin frowned slightly and said, "How about this, I'll call Lao Qin and tell him about it."

Master Fu nodded and said, "We can let Lao Qin give a warning about this matter. Do we have to sacrifice the personal interests of the candidates for the sake of our own political achievements?"

Fu Nanzheng smiled and said, "After I heard what the teacher in charge said at Beijing University, my first reaction was to find Uncle Qin."

Immediately, I went to the study and made a phone call.

Xia Juanjuan was confused. Who was this Uncle Qin? How could he be involved in this matter?

Xia Juanjuan secretly asked Fu Nanzheng.

Fu Nanzheng smiled and said, "Oh, yes, you haven't met Uncle Qin yet. He used to be Grandpa's subordinate, and he and Dad were also comrades-in-arms who had experienced life and death in the trenches. After he retired, he was assigned to a local post. He has been promoted slowly over the years, and now he is the governor of Hebei Province."

Xia Juanjuan: “…”

Does the Fu family have such a powerful network of connections?

Although she had no intention of using the Fu family's background to get in the way, this matter was something that a commoner like her from the countryside could not reach.

Xia Juanjuan could only be thankful that the original owner was the long-lost daughter of the Fu family, and they recognized each other as relatives.

Otherwise, no matter how well she performs in the exam, she may not even be able to get into Peking University.

Almost the next day, Uncle Qin called me and said, "Commander, I scolded them severely. It's just nonsense! Forcing the top few in the province to stay in the province is considered an achievement? In addition to my niece, there is also a third place winner, whose first choice is Tsinghua University, and his organizational files have also been withheld. Don't worry, old leader, I have asked them to release him immediately..."

A few days after this phone call, the admission letter from Peking University was mailed to the Fu family.

Mr. Fu, Fu Weixin, Fu Nanzheng, even Aunt Chen and the two siblings Yuanchao and Heping took turns reading the notice.

Mr. Fu was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

After receiving the acceptance letter, the next step is to wait for school to start.

The enrollment date is set for February 22, which is only a little over a month away, and there is also the college entrance examination in between.

While eating, Fu Weixin asked Xia Juanjuan about her plans.

Xia Juanjuan smiled and said, "Dad, I've thought about it. I'll take this opportunity to go back to the island and bring my parents and the kids to Beijing to live together. If I go to class, I'll let my parents help take care of the kids. As for Lizhan, I heard from him that he might be transferred back to Beijing to study in a military academy, but there's no certainty now, so let him live in the dormitory and eat in the cafeteria on the island for a while."

Fu Weixin listened, nodded, and said with a smile: "This is exactly what we thought of. Nanzheng, you can look for a suitable house near Peking University these days, and talk to the landlord first and rent it..."

Without waiting for Fu Nanzheng's response, Xia Juanjuan said, "Dad, about the house, after I finish my exams, I'll just wander around Beijing. I've already found one, and I've talked to the owner, and I've paid a month's deposit. We can just move in later."

Fu Weixin was stunned for a moment: "Have you found one? You kid, your family is around, why don't you discuss it with us?"

Xia Juanjuan smiled and said, "It's not like I found it myself. It's the courtyard house that my third brother mentioned two years ago. I passed by that day and saw that it didn't seem to be rented out. I had an idea, so I went to ask a neighbor in the alley and asked him to tell me who the owner was. Later, we made a deal. In fact, it was my third brother who helped me find the house."

After hearing this, Fu Nanzheng asked, "Which one? The owner of that one is very mysterious. I made several appointments with him but he refused to meet me. Did you meet him?"

Xia Juanjuan had already thought of an excuse, so she said, "I haven't met him in person, and my neighbor helped me find an agent, but it's settled anyway."

The Fu family still has to keep the matter of the Siheyuan a secret for now.

Otherwise, if you ask, where does she get so much money?

Not to mention her, even if it was the Fu family, asking them to take out so much money at once,

Wait until the business is established and then buy it.

After hearing this, Fu Weixin could only sigh and ask, "How much is it a month? Is Lizhan's monthly allowance enough?"

"Fifty a month. The salary for Lizhan has increased a bit on the island. It's eighty a month now. After I'm transferred back, it may drop a little. But I'm in college, and I get living allowances every month. It's still enough."

It is true that in this era, not only is there no tuition fee for going to university, but there is also a living allowance. Otherwise, why would so many people go to university?

After graduating from university, you will be truly a chosen one of heaven's talents. You will be a cadre and guaranteed a job upon graduation.

Those are truly valuable, much more valuable than after the university expands its enrollment!

Fu Weixin thought about it. There were six children in the family, as well as Xia Shuangshan and Lin Yuru, not counting Li Zhan. The food, clothing and daily expenses of the family of nine depended on the allowances and subsidies from Li Zhan and Xia Juanjuan. If they were in the village before, they could live off the land, hunt for wild vegetables and mushrooms in the mountains, plant some in their own plots, and also have the food distributed by the commune, they might have been able to cope with it. But in the future in the city, they would have to buy firewood and pay rent, how could it be enough?

However, Fu Weixin didn't say much at this moment.

He also saw that his daughter was stubborn and not willing to take advantage of her parents' family easily. Otherwise, she would not have rented a house for herself without making a sound.

There is a long time to come, and she will definitely not accept the money. When the time comes, you can ask her to send some food, meat and eggs from time to time, and then she will be more psychologically accepting.

That's settled.

A few days later, Xia Juanjuan set off for the island.

This year's New Year's Eve is February 6th, and it is already late January. Xia Juanjuan has been on the road for more than ten days. After returning to Beijing with her family, she still has to make arrangements to settle down. From now until the start of school, she basically has no free time.

Counting it all, she left the island at the end of October, and it has been almost three months since she last saw Lizhan, the boys, Xia Shuangshan, and Lin Yuru. She really missed them terribly.

Especially the triplets, she passed away while they were still asleep. I don’t know how many times she cried after that. It makes me sad to think about it.

As the year was coming to an end, although Fu Nanzheng wanted to visit his father-in-law and mother-in-law on Emerald Island to pay New Year's greetings, he was scheduled to be on duty at the hospital during the New Year and could not take a leave. Therefore, he bought a lot of New Year's goods and asked Xia Juanjuan to take them over.
