1977 was the first year that the college entrance examination was reinstated. The exam was scheduled for November, and the news of its reinstatement would be announced around October. Su Feng had to start preparing now.
There are many learning materials on the phone, including the 1977 college entrance examination questions. This is like giving Su Feng the strongest cheat code, but cheating is not a good thing after all.
Highlighting the key points is still a good idea.
"Sufeng, you have to go to university!" Zhang's father suddenly spoke, his voice firm and resolute. "Once you get into university, let's see who dares to look down on you!"
These days, college graduates are so valuable; there are only a handful in an entire county. Zhang Sufeng's eyes suddenly lit up, and she nodded emphatically.
"I must pass the exam!"
Liu Nian bought some old review materials from his phone, saying he had asked someone to buy them from outside. Zhang Sufeng thanked Liu Nian repeatedly and studied the books day and night.
In her previous life, Liu Nian passed the adult college entrance examination through self-study and learned a lot of knowledge. She could even tutor Zhang Sufeng on things she didn't understand.
She was seething with anger; she wasn't going to fight over a steamed bun, she was fighting for her pride!
When the news spread, several other villagers who wanted to go to university sought out Liu Nian.
No one doubted it, after all, Liu Nian was a good student in high school, one of the top students in the school, and more than capable of tutoring them, especially since Liu Nian could get his hands on review questions that others couldn't buy.
For a time, everyone respectfully addressed Liu Nian as Teacher Liu.
...
That evening, the man went home.
Liu Nian quickly took out the food she had bought on her phone and handed it over, saying, "Hurry up and eat something."
Right now, all the production teams are rushing to harvest wheat, fearing that a sudden wind, rain, or hail might crush the grain in the fields and make it impossible to retrieve.
Some were even cut down before they were fully grown.
Su Xu washed his hands, and Liu Nian handed him a towel, saying, "Don't be in such a hurry. There's been no rain this year. Let the wheat grow a few more days, and when it's ripe, the yield will increase considerably."
Su Xu nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to Teacher Liu."
Liu Nian rolled her eyes at the man. "You're joking with me too."
"No, I'm happy to hear people call you Teacher Liu." Su Xu gently touched Liu Nian's belly with his large hand. "I think my wife is awesome, she's always respected."
"But don't overwork yourself."
Liu Nian nodded, smiling sweetly, "Mmm!"
...
A group of men took off their undershirts, stood under the scorching sun, and kept swinging their sickles, trying to buy as much time as possible against the heavens.
The women's faces were sunburned and peeling; they wiped the sweat from their brows and quickly bent down again.
"Comrades, let's give it our all!"
While everyone else was working enthusiastically, Su Xu's troops remained inactive.
"What are you doing?" Secretary Jin frowned. "Why aren't you taking any action? If hail comes one day, we won't even be able to save the food!"
Su Xu fanned himself with his straw hat and said, "My wife said there hasn't been any rain or hail recently."
"Why do you listen to your wife in everything?" Secretary Jin glanced at Su Xu. Because of Jin Qiaomei's matter, Secretary Jin still held a grudge against Liu Nian, and he couldn't help but escalate the situation—
"Su Xu, you're the production team leader! The harvest is like this every year! How dare you slack off!" Secretary Jin glared at Su Xu. "Last time your wife said it was going to rain heavily, and she just happened to be there. This time she said it wouldn't rain, and it hasn't rained yet?"
“My wife said, no rain means no rain.” Su Xu raised his voice, glanced at Secretary Jin, and said, “How about we make a bet? If it doesn’t rain, you can quit being the secretary; if it rains, I can go home and play with my eggs!”
"Alright." Secretary Jin narrowed his eyes. "You can wait to write your resignation letter."
"Hmph! Every summer the rain pours down, he just doesn't believe it!" Secretary Jin thought to himself with a smug feeling. He would wait until Su Xu lost his position as team leader before giving him a good thrashing.
Men just can't be provoked, Su Xu scoffed. "I deliberately set a trap for you, and you can't even tell? You're still smug about it. Who told you to talk bad about my wife?"
