Chen Jianhua walked around the room twice and found Ji Yuanjing still reading a book.
He stopped and asked, "Yuan Jing, aren't you tempted? Don't you want to go back to the city?"
Yuan Jing then put down the book and gave him a look: "Whether you are moved or not, will it change the status quo, or will it make you think of a way to return to the city? Will the results be different?"
Chen Jianhua lost his temper and squatted beside Yuan Jing, holding his head and banging it against the stool twice: "Then what do you say we should do?"
Yuan Jing put the book down completely this time, looked at Chen Jianhua and said, "Your current state will not help, but I think there is still a chance."
Chen Jianhua raised his head suddenly, his eyes shining: "What opportunity?"
Yuan Jing pointed at the book on the table and said, "There is a saying that goes, 'There are beautiful women in books.' Well, I won't tell you so complicated. Let's put it simply. From what happened to Mr. Zhang, don't you see a trend? That is, the country will pay more and more attention to talented people. Talented people don't come out of thin air, but are cultivated in university classrooms. So in the next few years, the country will definitely restore the college entrance examination. As long as you seize the opportunity to be admitted to university, won't it be easy to leave the countryside and return to the city in the future? As for you and Ma Lili, as long as you both get admitted to the same university, or a university in the same place, wouldn't it be just as easy for you two to be together?"
"Is it true?" Chen Jianhua said in disbelief. There seems to be no sign of reinstating the college entrance examination. Can Yuan Jing's words be believed?
Yuan Jing looked at him with contempt: "The current situation cannot continue forever, and the country will not remain poor forever. If the country wants to build, it must have talents. In my estimation, it will recover in two years or three years. So instead of worrying about it, you might as well seize these few years and work hard. Whether you can succeed depends on yourself. If you don't consider yourself, you have to consider your children in the future, right?"
Yuan Jing knew that the college entrance examination would be resumed one day in this era, but he didn't remember the exact year and month. He just stuffed the plot content into his mind. After the death of his original body, the perspective of the Zheng family in the capital was used, and the year was not specified. But later, it was very common for Zheng Hua to take the college entrance examination in the 1980s, but college students were also very precious at that time.
So he couldn't give a specific time, but it would take no more than two or three years.
Chen Jianhua scratched his face and said, "You are right. I am not smart and I can't think as far ahead as you do. But I will listen to you, a smart man. I will do whatever you say. I will go and tell Lili the good news. By the way, I know I can't let anyone know. I know what to do."
Chen Jianhua regained his energy and jumped out like a monkey, leaving Yuan Jing speechless. What did he mean by listening to a smart man? He said that Chen Jianhua was just lazy and too lazy to use his brain.
Ma Lili was indeed very upset. Chen Jianhua was a man with no major problems, and she was quite satisfied with him. If the two of them stayed in the countryside, she would have given up all the thoughts and lived an honest life with him. But what if they could go back to the city? It was not so easy for the two of them to be together again, one in the south and the other in the north.
After hearing Chen Jianhua's retelling of Ji Yuanjing's words, Ma Lili ran over to verify it with Ji Yuanjing. Yuanjing repeated what he had told Chen Jianhua and did not force them to believe it.
After Ma Lili left, she thought about it for several days and finally made an agreement with Chen Jianhua that they would stay together for the time being, and when the college entrance examination was resumed and they were admitted to the same place, they would get married immediately.
Yuan Jing thought it was a good idea. Ma Lili was much more rational than Chen Jianhua. This was a plan for the long-term future of the two of them, rather than just seeking short-term benefits. In his opinion, it was definitely a blessing for Chen Jianhua to find Ma Lili. When they were together in the future, Ma Lili had the ability to make their life prosperous.
From then on, whenever she had free time, Ma Lili would use Jiang's house as her base to read books. She would also leave the books she found with Chen Jianhua. She would often go to Jiang's house, and people in the village and the Youth League Institute did not find it strange. Now everyone knew that she was dating Chen Jianhua.
With Ma Lili hanging a carrot in front of him, Chen Jianhua was like having a whip behind him. Even someone who didn't like reading had to control his temper and pick up the book.
After winter came, Yuan Jing asked for leave from the team and went to Beihai Farm to visit Ji's father. The original body's death crisis had passed, and Ji's father did not pass away as in the original plot. However, Yuan Jing was still worried about Ji's father's health, and he could not feel at ease unless he went to see him in person. Fortunately, his medical skills were also recognized by Mr. Zhang, so this time he went there to help diagnose Ji's father and start the treatment.
Transportation was very inconvenient these days. It took Yuan Jing ten days to make a round trip and he only stayed at Ji's father's place for two days. Yuan Jing was heartbroken to see the situation there. Ji's father kept saying happily that conditions were much better now. However, Yuan Jing also knew that without a sudden major blow, Ji's father's health would not deteriorate so quickly.
After carefully examining Ji's father's body, Yuan Jing communicated with Mr. Zhang and finalized a conditioning prescription. According to the prescription, Yuan Jing collected all the herbs and made medicine bags, which he sent to the farm after they were made. He told Ji's father to drink them as tea bags if he didn't have the conditions, or to boil them if he did. Taking them regularly would slowly regulate Ji's father's body.
When Yuan Jing went to the farm, he said that he had been studying medicine with an old Chinese doctor. Now the old doctor has been transferred to Beijing. This makes Ji's father very happy, because his son did not become decadent even though he went to the countryside to work in the production team. He persisted in learning, which would be useful one day.
Yuan Jing has never told Ji's father about Zheng Hua's true life experience. He will have to wait until Ji's father is rehabilitated and leaves the farm before he can tell him, because he doesn't know if Ji's father can bear it.
Everything is still moving in the right direction.
