It was as if they were playing hide-and-seek, and the event was delayed, so the Zhang family members did not have a good New Year.
Lin Xue was extremely worried. She was afraid that her family members would be upset.
Song Lili felt much less pressure, since she wasn't particularly looking forward to going to university.
Zhang Qinghua and Zhang Qingguo appeared somewhat anxious and uneasy.
Song Lili comforted them, "You will definitely pass the exam, don't worry. The admission notice just hasn't arrived yet."
Seeing Zhang Qinghua growing increasingly disappointed, she could only comfort him, "I know you will pass the exam, I have confidence in you."
He studied so diligently that it would be an injustice if he failed the exam.
"Will I really pass the exam? I suddenly lost confidence. Maybe I just won't pass?"
The recent wait has caused Zhang Qinghua to lose confidence and become uncertain.
Song Lili lay half-lying on the kang (a heated brick bed), looking at Zhang Qinghua with her eyes, and told him very seriously.
"No, you'll definitely pass the exam, I'm very sure."
"Whether it's the time you spend reviewing or preparing, you have plenty of time; it's simply impossible for you not to pass the exam."
Although she was anxious and uneasy, she couldn't let Zhang Qinghua find out. At this moment, she could only let him know that she was confident.
"Will it?" Zhang Qinghua murmured to himself.
"Yes, you will." Song Lili nodded firmly. "So, don't worry, you can sleep soundly. Maybe you'll see your acceptance letter when you wake up tomorrow morning?"
So, the next day, when Zhang Qinghua excitedly ran up to Song Lili and said, "Lili, is your mouth blessed? How come everything you say comes true?" she was completely dumbfounded.
What's going on? What did she say? And what's so magical about it?
It wasn't until Song Lili saw the admission notice in his hand that she understood what Zhang Qinghua meant.
She was both amused and exasperated; she had just stumbled upon this by sheer luck and was just talking nonsense.
Unexpectedly, things turned out so coincidentally that it came true.
She really doesn't have that ability, okay?
Zhang Qinghua's admission notice came at the same time as Song Lili's; they both applied to the same school, so of course they came together.
Zhang Qingguo hadn't arrived yet. He was happy for his brother and sister-in-law, but also anxiously waiting for his turn.
This time, Zhang Qingguo was not tormented further, and on the third day, his notification arrived.
All three members of the Zhang family who took the college entrance examination were admitted to universities. In no time, the news spread not only throughout Hongqi Village but also throughout the surrounding villages.
Taking this opportunity, Song Lili went to the Fifth Brigade and asked about Song Fang and the others' scores.
Because Song Fang and Chu Ci, like them, had never given up, they did well on the exam and both received admission notices.
Zhang Zeyu and his wife were not so lucky; they both failed the exam and did not pass.
However, neither of them was discouraged. They planned to compete again next year.
Song Lili thought this was a good thing; it would only be half a year before the next college entrance examination, so the time wouldn't be long.
Knowing the result, Song Lili went home without delay.
Fangfang, whom she was most worried about, has found her own future. She doesn't need to worry too much about the rest.
Don't worry, your older brother is looking after you, nothing will happen.
Fangfang, having left home, is no longer afraid of her sister-in-law giving her a hard time.
When I got home, I found Zhang Aiai there, sitting in the main room with a happy expression, talking to me.
Song Lili went in, greeted everyone, and then came out to help Lin Xue in the kitchen.
She didn't want to face Zhang Aiai, so she preferred to hide in the kitchen, where she could be more at ease and wouldn't have to see Zhang Aiai's sour face.
"Sister-in-law is back?" Lin Xue greeted her when she saw her.
"When did you arrive, Ai Ai? What's the matter?" This person never comes without a reason; I could tell from the previous visits.
"I've been here for a while, and I don't know why I came." She greeted them and went into the kitchen, not even listening to what Zhang Aiai had come for.
Song Lili didn't ask again, "What do you want to do? I'll help you." There was nothing else to do outside.
Lin Xue understood, so she said, "I'm planning to have noodles for lunch. Sister-in-law, you can make the noodles, and I'll cook the other dishes."
When Zhang Aiai comes, it certainly can't just be noodles.
Otherwise, the other family members would probably feel uncomfortable.
Upon hearing this, Song Lili went to knead the dough and roll out the noodles, paying no attention to Zhang Aiai in the main room.
As long as Zhang Aiai doesn't cause her trouble, she doesn't care at all.
Even if Zhang Aiai has something to do, there are still three men in the Zhang family; it has nothing to do with her.
After preparing lunch, Song Lili and Lin Xue carried the food into the main room. "You can eat now."
When everyone was seated at the table, Song Lili realized why Zhang Aiai had come.
I heard that my two older brothers got into university, so I came to visit.
This matter spread throughout Huangjiang Village.
The people of Huangjiang Village, upon seeing Zhang Aiai's terraced fields, praised her two older brothers, saying they were extraordinary and had a bright future ahead of them.
If they all get into university, won't they be able to earn a living through government subsidies? Live in big houses and become city dwellers?
Therefore, everyone who met Zhang Aiai was trying to curry favor with her, hoping that they might be able to help her in the future.
It's said that with more people around, Zhang Aiai got arrogant and started to think she was superior, looking down on others.
That's why I came here on purpose today, just to tell the people of Huangjiang Village that she, Zhang Aiai, is not someone to be trifled with.
She has two older brothers who are college students, so she has their support and backing.
Song Lili was speechless; she didn't really want to hear about the stupid things Zhang Aiai had done.
Let's not even talk about whether Zhang Qinghua and Zhang Qingguo will really be the way others say they are in the future.
Even now, her two older brothers are successful, but what does that have to do with her? Even if someone could help her, it would be four years from now.
In these four years, she has remained the same as before, without any change.
If Zhang Aiai were smart, she would use this incident to make peace with the Fang family and return to normalcy; that would be the best thing she could do.
With the Zhang brothers' status as college students, the Fang family didn't dare to bully Zhang Aiai too much. As long as she didn't do anything excessive, her future would definitely be easier.
However, she failed to maintain good relations with her in-laws or her neighbors, and instead ran back to her parents' home.
What are you doing back at your parents' house? To hear praise? Or to stand up for her again?
Therefore, Song Lili didn't really want to talk to Zhang Aiai, who had such a peculiar way of thinking.
She quickly finished her meal and then left under the pretext of going to see the children, not wanting to hear such pointless talk.
Once I got out, I finally had some peace and quiet.
Why would a child need her to watch over them? The child is almost two years old and can play by themselves; they don't need an adult to look after them.
She just didn't want to hear what she didn't want to hear.
I should go see my son and clean his ears and eyes while I'm at it; I can't bear to feel so uncomfortable.
