Chapter 297: Result 1: Admission Notice Arrives
After the college entrance examination, facing the concern of family and friends, Yao Zhizhi and Qi Changxiao both tacitly chose to remain silent.
"Is the test difficult?"
With a smile on your face.
"Did you perform well?"
With a smile on your face.
"Have you finished everything?"
With a smile on your face.
"The school you applied for?"
With a smile on your face.
"If you fail the exam, will you take it again?"
With a smile on your face.
The couple only talked about work and children during this period, and became silent when asked about exams.
It's not that they are being mysterious, but they don't want to be happy too soon.
Especially Yao Zhizhi, although she had solved all the questions, what if? She had no teacher to teach her, so she relied on Shen Qingwan's guidance and discussions with Qi Changxiao.
So it doesn’t matter that she can answer it. Maybe all three of them are wrong?
In fact, in her original imagination, this exam would be extremely difficult, even more challenging than rushing into the zombie king's lair.
But she never expected that after she finished all the questions, there would still be dozens of minutes left.
She had finished the inspection and was planning to leave immediately, but she didn't want to put pressure on others, so she waited until the bell rang.
That day, she walked among the crowd, listening to the complaints of her fellow candidates. She did not feel any joy or relief in her heart, but only silence, an unprecedented silence.
Ever since she started working, people around her have been constantly questioning her abilities, discriminating against her academic qualifications, and some even wrote big-character posters, trying to incite her colleagues to oppose her and report her.
Although the incident ultimately failed, the blow it dealt to her was long-lasting and heavy.
She smiles every day, but that doesn't mean she doesn't care.
Now, it's great that she can finally prove herself by passing a national exam.
When the results are announced, she will happily tell the children that your mother can go to college and will no longer be looked down upon for her academic qualifications.
She will wait patiently for that day to come. Before that, she will live a normal life, go to work when she should and rest when she should.
The state of not being happy with things or sad with oneself is too high for her to achieve, but she can remain calm and composed without being arrogant or impatient, and quietly wait for fate to reveal the answer.
She rested that day and slept until noon.
The sunlight could not shine in through the curtains, but she listened to the laughter of the children in the yard and thought that today would be a sunny day.
She stayed in bed for a while longer, and only when her two children called her out to make a snowman did she realize that it had snowed last night.
Yao Zhizhi got up, breathing heavily, and went to the yard to brush her teeth, preparing to eat something and then play with the children.
I had just wiped my mouth when I heard a quarrel coming from the other side of the alley.
It was a rare occasion that Yao Zhizhi didn't have to prepare for the exam, so she told Qi Changxiao and went to take a look ahead.
It turned out to be Maodan, who had borrowed Guangmei's flying chess and had not returned it. Guangmei went to Maodan's house to ask for it. Maoling happened to be at home, so she asked Maodan to return the thing to Guangmei quickly.
As a result, Maodan couldn't take it out. After asking, we found out that Maodan took out the box of flying chess when other children came to play at home in order to show off. Later, he went to the alley with other children to play firecrackers and forgot to put the flying chess away.
When he came back, the flying chess piece was gone.
Guangmei was very angry and asked Maoling to compensate her at the original price.
Mao Ling originally agreed, but then she heard that a box of chess pieces actually cost more than ten yuan? That was half a month's salary for her!
He refused to return the money no matter what and even said that Guangmei was blackmailing him! Guangmei was so angry that she ran home to complain to her mother.
Yao Miaomiao doesn't care about this little money at all, but she will never allow anyone to slander her daughter!
When Yao Zhizhi rushed over, Yao Miaomiao had already started fighting with Mao Ling!
Mao Ling is an expert at quarreling. She has been competing with Kong Badou in wits and courage for many years. How could she be afraid of a female comrade?
However, Yao Miaomiao was not afraid of anything, and she was very tall. When she stood in front of Mao Ling, her aura was quite intimidating.
You glare at me and I scold you, and after a while, the two of us started fighting.
Yao Zhizhi was quite disappointed. Mao Ling was not able to educate her own children well, but she turned the blame on others. It was really disheartening.
Yao Zhizhi quickly pulled the two apart and intended to persuade her sister that it was almost the New Year and not to fight, as it would be bad if her face was disfigured.
But Mao Ling was still fussing, "Are you crazy because of poverty? Huh? You're asking me for more than ten yuan for a box of broken chess pieces? How shameless! If you're really crazy because of poverty, go beg at the train station! Don't come to my house and act like a troublemaker!"
Yao Zhizhi couldn't believe what she heard. She turned around suddenly and stared at Mao Ling in a daze: "What did you just say?"
Mao Ling felt a bit guilty when she saw Yao Zhizhi coming over. She and Kong Badou had argued so many times, and every time, Yao Zhizhi and her mother-in-law had to come out and settle the matter.
Even for Yao Zhizhi's sake, she shouldn't have quarreled with her sister like this.
But she has such a bad temper. She is used to quarreling with Kong Badou and it is hard for her to change even after the divorce.
However, she still had to give Yao Zhizhi some face, so she quickly softened her attitude and said, "I was just talking nonsense in anger, so don't take it personally. It's good that you're here. Please judge the situation. It's not a big deal for children to play with each other's toys. We agreed to compensate for the loss, but your Guangmei asked for half a month's salary from me. I was so angry that I said a few words. I didn't mean it."
Yao Zhizhi said with a cold face, "First of all, the chess pieces were bought in Hong Kong at this price. You have never seen the world, so what right do you have to frame my Guangmei? You must apologize to my Guangmei!"
Mao Ling was reluctant and did not respond to the conversation.
Yao Zhizhi continued, "Secondly, you just asked my sister to beg for food, right? Mao Ling, listen carefully. I didn't hit you today because of Aunt Mao's face. From now on, this face will not work! Next time something like this happens, you can see whether I will hit you or not!"
"Alright, alright, I get it. It's my fault this time, alright?" Mao Ling was so annoyed. It was all Mao Dan's fault! She went to spank the child, trying to get away with it. She had already spanked the child, so she couldn't ask her to apologize, could she?
In the past, when such a situation occurred, the neighbors would say, "Forget it, the child didn't mean it," and would even come over to persuade her to stop hitting the child.
Unfortunately, Yao Zhizhi was not another neighbor, so she just stood quietly by and watched Mao Ling beat the child.
The whole alley was filled with the sounds of Zi'erwa's screaming and crying. Aunt Mao came back from buying groceries, her face ashen with fear. When she came in to take a look, she realized that it was Maodan who had caused the trouble.
Yao Zhizhi told everyone what had happened one by one, and finally called Guangmei over, insisting that Mao Ling apologize to the child today.
Aunt Mao was so angry that she cried out that it was injustice. In the end, she used her authority as an elder to force Mao Ling to apologize.
Yao Zhizhi gave up and when she left, she glanced at the furious Mao Ling and could not hide her disappointment.
Mao Ling's son is a waste, and her daughter may not learn well either. Let's wait and see, Mao Ling's hard days are yet to come.
After Yao Zhizhi left, Aunt Mao advised, "Kid, is it worth it for a dozen bucks? If it weren't for Xiao Yao, you and Badou would have died when you jumped into the river! Now you're embarrassing her sister, and that's embarrassing her! How can I be neighbors with her in the future? Huh? You can just pat your butt and go back to your man, but I have to stay here and meet people all the time!"
Mao Ling was so annoyed that she covered her ears and didn't want to listen: "I already said I didn't mean it. Can you please stop thinking so much? I'm taking the college entrance examination. Maybe I won't live here next year."
"You can't offend people you shouldn't offend! How did they do anything wrong to you, and you even hit their sister! You are so immoral!" Aunt Mao was heartbroken and quickly picked up the two fish she had just bought and sent them to the back.
Yao Zhizhi refused to accept it. She thought that the conflict between her and Mao Ling was not Aunt Mao's fault. She just needed to know that Aunt Mao was innocent.
But Aunt Mao felt really bad and insisted that she accept the fish.
As they were pushing and shoving, a postman came to the gate.
He got out of the car and shouted, "Are Yao Zhizhi and Qi Changxiao at home? The admission letter has arrived."
Yao Zhizhi quickly came out and said, "Hello, comrade. I'm Yao Zhizhi."
"Where is Qi Changxiao?" The postman started to take the envelope.
Yao Zhizhi quickly called out, and the postman reminded her, "Bring out your household registration booklet and seals. I need to verify your identities."
