437 Resuming the College Entrance Examination
In September 1977, the Ministry of Education in the capital held a national college admissions work conference and decided to resume the college entrance examination, which had been suspended for ten years, and decided to announce it in October.
Most people in the base had received the news in advance and were looking for high school textbooks everywhere.
On October 21, all major mainstream and non-mainstream media, including television, radio, newspapers, etc., announced this news everywhere, and television and radio kept repeating it.
When Bai Hua heard the news, she was sorting documents in the assistant's office outside Su Taotao.
It happened to be Friday, and she packed her things from the dormitory and was planning to go to the city after work in the afternoon.
She was a high school graduate this year. She graduated from high school with the fifth-best score in the whole grade and was specially recruited to work as an assistant in Su Taotao's office.
In fact, she didn't want to study anymore after graduating from junior high school, because there was no college entrance examination at that time. No matter whether she graduated from junior high school or high school, she would become a worker. After graduating from junior high school, she could start earning money a few years earlier.
It was Su Taotao who insisted that she finish high school and study hard. She would check her study situation when she had time.
Bai Hua was smart to begin with. She spent most of her time on other things before and didn't study hard. It was not just her, but the whole environment.
Su Taotao was like a reborn parent to Bai Hua. She could ignore anyone's words, but she had to listen to Su Taotao's words.
And seeing that Fu Yuanhang and Mumu had good academic performance.
It is said that all the people working in the factory office are high school graduates with good grades. If she wants to stay in the factory to work in the future, she must study hard and graduate from high school with excellent grades if she wants to work in the office and be closer to Su Taotao.
So she learned from her mistakes and focused on studying.
Since then, her grades have never fallen out of the top ten in her grade.
Until July this year, she graduated from high school with excellent grades and became a member of Su Taotao's assistant team.
The people in this assistant team are equivalent to the reserve force of the factory's cadres. Su Taotao personally leads the team to inject fresh blood into the factory's management.
Su Taotao made her realize that studying and hard work are useful. She was grateful to Su Taotao for her kindness and to herself for studying hard.
But she never thought that one day the college entrance examination would be resumed and studying would be of great use!
The excited colleague shook Bai Hua's arm: "Bai Hua, you have taken the college entrance examination! Bai Hua, you have taken the
college entrance examination!" "Yes, Bai Hua, you have such good grades, you will definitely be admitted to university!" Everyone in the assistant group knew that she had good grades.
"You freshmen are so lucky. It's been several years since I graduated from high school. I have forgotten all my knowledge. How can I compare with you?" The colleague who said this was not sarcastic, but just speaking the truth.
Her grades in school were also very good, but she was born at the wrong time. If the college entrance examination had been resumed a few years ago, she would have had the confidence to go to college. Now, with only more than a month to prepare, she was unsure.
Bai Hua was in a trance. She was not as excited as others.
She studied hard to stay in the factory and work with Su Taotao. Her goal had been achieved. Now the college entrance examination was suddenly resumed. If she passed, would she leave here to go to college?
She liked Su Taotao, the factory director, the working atmosphere in the factory, and everything here. Did she really want to leave here and go to a strange city to go to college?
...
Chenchen was the first person in the family to hear the broadcast. Although he was seven years old, he didn't know what this news meant.
But he knew that his mother, who had been working late into the night these days, was finally going to the "battlefield" and take the college entrance exam!
Something happened in the factory yesterday, and they had a meeting to solve it until midnight. Su Taotao and several other senior executives postponed work for two hours today, and she is still catching up on her sleep.
"Mom!" Chenchen ran upstairs with the radio in his arms.
Baibai was worried that he would fall, so she immediately followed behind him to protect him.
"Mom, the radio said that the college entrance examination will be resumed!"
Fu Zhengtu also worked overtime until three or four in the morning yesterday. When Chenchen broke in, he was holding Su Taotao and catching up on his sleep.
Chen Chen didn't care about that much, he put the radio on the table and plugged it in. The news about the resumption of the college entrance examination was still playing in a loop.
He climbed onto the bed, forcibly separated his parents, and squeezed in between them to lie down.
Fu Zhengtu frowned, and for the first time he had the urge to throw this brat out.
Su Taotao closed her eyes and hugged Chenchen in her arms, muttering, "Chenchen, Mom is sleepy, please let me sleep a little longer..."
Fu Zhengtu was completely awakened by him, picked up the child with one hand and forcibly carried him off the bed, turned off the radio, and carried him downstairs directly:
"Mom worked overtime until very late last night, please let her sleep a little longer."
Chenchen, who was seven years old, was over 1.2 meters tall. As he grew up, he had grown into an incredibly beautiful little boy. The little boy who grew up in love was close to his family and had no awareness that he had grown up. He was either hugging this or that all day long, and his personality was no different from when he was a child.
He was very close to his father, and Fu Zhengtu often hugged him and carried him on his back.
"Dad, Mom said at this time last year that there was an uncertain plan that would not be finalized until this time next year, which is now. Was it about the resumption of the college entrance examination?"
Chen Chen is so smart. He has loved listening to the radio since he was a child. He knows everything about national affairs. He has a good memory and remembers everything Su Taotao said.
Fu Zhengtu was stunned: "Mom said last year that it would be finalized by this time this year?"
At that time, there was only this rumor. He judged that the college entrance examination would be resumed, but he could not calculate the exact time. It could be as short as one or two years, or as long as two or three years.
But Su Taotao was sure that it was now? How did she calculate it?
Chenchen hugged his father's neck and nodded: "Yes, I asked mom to give me a smart brother or sister, and mom said that she and you have uncertain plans, and my wish may not be realized in three to five years. She also said that it will be settled by this time next year."
Fu Zhengtu came back to his senses and smiled. It was probably Su Taotao's words to fool Chenchen.
Fu Zhengtu didn't think much about it. Since the news of the college entrance examination had been released, there was nothing to be afraid of, so he said to Chenchen:
"Mom plans to apply to a university in the capital, and Dad will also apply to be transferred to the capital headquarters. If the plan goes well, our whole family may move to the capital to live.
But the prerequisite is that Mom has to get admitted to a university in the capital first."
Chenchen blinked and was stunned for a long time.
He thought what the plan was that Mom was talking about. It turned out that she was planning to leave here?
Chenchen's eyebrows were wrinkled so much that
they could pinch a fly to death. "Then Dad, will Dongdong and Pangpang stay here forever?"
Fu Zhengtu didn't expect Chenchen to ask this question.
He thought about it and said, "If Uncle Zhang and Uncle Li have no plans for job transfers, I think so. "
Xia Zhiqiu is a few years older than Su Taotao, and the girl is still young. She probably doesn't have the energy to take the college entrance examination. Zhang Chuncheng can't leave for the time being, and Li Shouwang is not suitable for transfer for the time being. They will most likely stay here.
"Oh, so that's the case." Chenchen's expression was a little tangled. If possible, he still didn't want to separate from his good friend. Although they were not in class together now, they could still play together after class and on weekends.
"Don't tell anyone yet, wait until mom is admitted to a university in the capital." Fu Zhengtu said.
Chenchen nodded: "I know, Dad, I won't say anything about things that I'm not sure about."
Anyway, it's more important for the whole family to be together, so Chenchen didn't feel tangled anymore, and struggled to get off the ground: "Dad, I want to go to elementary school today. "
It seems that he needs to play more with Dongdong and Chubby Dundun. Mom is so smart, she will definitely have no problem getting into college. I may not have so many opportunities to play with them in the future.
Fu Zhengtu checked the time: "Are you still going so late?"
Chenchen nodded: "Yes, I will ask them to study hard and try to get into a university in the capital in the future, so that we can play together again!"
Fu Zhengtu: "..." Have they forgotten that they are only in the second grade of elementary school?
How many years will it take to get into college?
