After three days of examination, everyone completed the exam successfully.
This exam was relatively simple for the three Ping'an brothers. Even the candidates from the Cheng and Wen families felt very confident.
Especially after everyone got together and compared answers with each other, the estimated scores, although not comparable to the monster May Day, were still very high, and there was no problem in applying to a university.
Ping An and Liu Yi had slightly different question types from them, but after Zhou Jiao confirmed the brothers' answers, although they could not get full marks, they were close to perfect.
Mrs. Cheng said happily at the time: "Although the scores haven't been released yet, it seems that you will have no problem going to college. Let's celebrate in advance this weekend."
There was nothing wrong with the old lady's suggestion. Everyone in the two families was grateful to Zhou Jiao. According to the children, their sister was truly a treasure.
So everyone decided to get together at Cheng's house this weekend.
After the crowd dispersed, Zhang Guoqing patted his three sons' shoulders excitedly. If the children hadn't grown taller, he would have wanted to rub their little heads. How could they be so smart?
He sincerely felt the joy and satisfaction of being a father.
Ping An smiled brightly when he saw this, "Dad, do you want to compete with me?"
"Okay, let's go to the yard."
Wuyi saw his two brothers and his father running away impatiently, and quickly pulled Zhou Xiaozheng over, "Grandpa, come show us your skills too, let's have a grandparent-grandchild competition."
Zhou Xiaozheng lifted his sweater with a rare smile and said, "Okay! Let's have a good time today, three generations of grandparents and grandchildren."
Zhou Jiao shook her head and laughed as they left for the courtyard. Her family's way of celebrating was particularly strange. Luckily, ordinary people couldn't enter their courtyard without permission.
Otherwise, it would be considered as a lesson for the younger generations who did not perform well in the exams as parents!
The family braved the cold wind in the yard, watching three generations of grandparents and grandchildren fight back and forth.
Everything was fine at the beginning, and they followed the rules one on one. The family watching nearby applauded and cheered.
Zhou Xiaozheng left and went back to the living room to rest...
After hearing the noise, Xiao Zheng and several other servicemen couldn't stand it anymore and started warming up.
So they kept hitting each other, and soon it turned into a snowball fight.
That day, Zhang Guoqing, feeling cheerful, suddenly had the idea to send a telegram back home. Perhaps out of sheer excitement, he only wrote a few words as a prank.
——The three Ping An brothers have finished the college entrance examination.
"Jiaojiao, do you think Mom and Dad will be shocked?"
Zhou Jiao burst into laughter at his childishness.
"Why don't you just call?"
"Telegrams are better. I'm worried that after they get on the phone, in this heavy snow, they'll be so scared they'll fall down while walking home."
He estimated that his parents would be surprised and happy about this sudden news, and of course he did not want to show off his three sons.
Regardless of whether he showed off or not, Father Zhang was indeed shocked by this bastard son.
He didn't see him finish reading the telegram, wipe his eyes again, and looked at his wife in disbelief, "Mother, did Xiaowu write back before saying that only Ping'an will take the college entrance examination this time?"
Zhang's mother nodded seriously, "Yes, what's the matter?"
Father Zhang suddenly burst into a grin. He really wasn't wrong!
"He's gone crazy!"
"Let me tell you, Xiaowu said that Ping'an and his two brothers have finished the college entrance examination. It seems that all three of our grandsons should have passed the exam."
Mother Zhang didn't bother to correct him. She snatched the telegram away and shouted, "What do you mean? I don't understand! Didn't you say they passed the exam two days ago?"
"You old woman, don't you even think about it? If we weren't sure, would our Xiaowu have sent a telegram without hesitation? I guess they got the answer right."
"You mean, the Liuyi brothers also went to take the exam? They really went to take the exam? Oh my god, how old are these two children?"
Father Zhang laughed happily, snatched the telegram, grabbed his coat and hat, and walked out. "I have to go to the work of the eldest and second sons."
Seeing her husband leave in a hurry, Zhang's mother laughed with joy, clasped her hands together and bowed to the outside. She could faintly hear the words "Buddha bless you, ancestors bless you".
"Sister, are you home?"
When Zhang's mother heard the loud voice of the wife of Mr. Wang next door, she quickly responded loudly and ran out in a hurry.
"Where was Big Brother going in such a hurry just now? It's a gloomy day and I'm afraid it's going to snow heavily."
Mother Zhang smiled casually. "Hey, where else can he go? He's out looking for the kids at home. Why don't you come inside in this cold weather? Come on, come to my room and warm up."
"No, don't pull me into this. I'm leaving now because I have work to do at home."
"Hey, go ahead."
"My boss's agent brought back a letter saying that Brother Zhang should go to his workplace tonight if he's free. I think it's time to distribute benefits again this month."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhang's mother quickly said gratefully, "Big sister, I won't thank you anymore. I've been taking advantage of your family so I'll let you know if there's anything I need."
"Why thank me? It's not a good thing. I'll go back first, big sister. You go ahead and do your work."
"Slow down, I'll take you there."
"What are you sending? It's just a few steps away..."
Mother Zhang watched her turn and enter the yard before entering the yard, secretly grateful to these neighbors.
After living here for a long time, like Huang Juan, the sister-in-law of the Chen family on the right, they are more like family than relatives. Whenever the supply and marketing cooperative has defective products, they will pull them in.
As for Wang's younger brother and sister, they would bring in any benefits from the meat processing plant. Although they were all pig offal and bones, these were not usually available.
What an honest person!
Later, we have to ask the child’s father to go back to the village to exchange some things for them.
Father Zhang, who was missed by his wife, went out for a walk. Although he did not reveal a word to outsiders, the Zhang family got the news in the blink of an eye.
At night, except for Xizi's family who worked in the provincial capital, the four branches of the Zhang family gathered in Zhang Guoqing's courtyard.
Zhang Laoer was the first to arrive. He looked around curiously and called out to Zhang's mother, "Mom, where's my dad?"
Could Zhang's mother accuse her husband of engaging in illicit activities? Not to mention, her second son is quite clever.
She immediately ran over to him and whispered, "Keep your voice down. Go pick up your dad from the meat processing plant after ten o'clock. He'll probably be drinking with your Uncle Wang by now."
"Okay. My dad is more popular than me."
"That's not necessary. Are you hungry? Mommy will find you something to eat."
Zhang Laoer smiled and shook his head, taking off his coat. "I'll eat it, so don't serve it to me. How can we be so hungry? Save the good stuff for my dad."
As soon as he finished speaking, he could hear a commotion outside, which made him laugh and shake his head. "Look, another big family is coming over. No matter how much food we have, it won't be enough for them to stuff in."
"What are you talking about? Keep your voice down. If someone hears you, they'll think you, the uncle, are holding her child hostage."
Zhang Laoer's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he curled his lips as he watched his mother go out to greet him.
He's spoiled by her! If it weren't for his eldest brother's face, what would Huang Cuilan be?
