Two days later, the villagers gathered at the notice board in the village, for no other reason than that today was the day when the admission notices would be issued.

Shen Zhizhu got up early today on purpose, changed into festive-colored clothes, and even put on some light makeup, because no matter in this life or the previous one, this is a turning point in her destiny and one of the most important things.

She has to take it seriously.

Shen Ai Qiu also got up early, and was accompanied by Li Chunlan and Shen Jianguo. However, when she looked around, she found that Shen Xiaojie was also there.

But it's normal. Today is the day when she and Shen Ai Qiu will fulfill their bet. As a bet, he will show up to get the house deed that Shen Xiaojie has been thinking about.

Shen Xiaojie kept looking at Shen Zhizhu, and even wondered whether he had taken the house deed out with him.

Xu Haonan noticed Shen Xiaojie's gaze and felt unhappy. He put his arm around Shen Zhizhu's shoulders and slightly adjusted his position so that he could just block the other person's line of sight.

"Oh, no, who is so stupid..."

Shen Xiaojie was about to speak and asked the person who was blocking his view to move aside, then he met Xu Haonan's fierce eyes.

He shut up from the bottom of his heart and muttered a few words under his breath.

"Tsk, if you don't want to look, then don't look. I'm not interested in Shen Zhizhu. Anyway, the property deed will be taken out soon. With so many people watching, I can't lie. I'll just wait a little longer."

Shen Ai Qiu wore a red dress today, the color of which was the same as Shen Zhizhu's. She also put on makeup and even had her hair permed.

Shen Zhizhu noticed with his sharp eyes that a small tuft of the other person's hair was burnt, probably because he had burned it too hard.

"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen how pretty I am? Cousin, the acceptance letter hasn't arrived yet. If you hand over the property deed now, I can consider giving you some money as a subsidy, so that you don't end up with nothing."

"That's right, Shen Zhizhu. Before the acceptance letter arrives, everything is still possible. My promise is still valid. You can reconsider what I said before."

Du Manjun was also joining in the commotion, and it looked as if he was simply taking pleasure in someone else's misfortune.

Shen Zhizhu rolled his eyes at the two of them and reached out to lift his hair.

"How can you be so confident that I can't beat a loser in the exam? Even with my eyes closed, I can still do better than Shen Aiqiu. And you, Du Manjun, if you don't want your ears, donate them to people in need. I've said it a long time ago, you idiot, you always want to eat swan meat, why don't you look in the mirror more often?"

Shen Zhizhu's neither salty nor bland, neither cold nor hot, irritated Shen Aiqiu.

"Me? I can't beat you? Forget it. Everyone knows that when you were at my house, you had no chance to learn anything. You could only follow behind Manjun and hope that Manjun could teach you a few words. You still want to beat me? Dream on."

Xu Haonan said "oh".

"So, you thought you could definitely beat my Ah Zhu in the exam, so you deliberately proposed a bet, using the results as a competition, and using Ah Zhu's house deed as a bet. As a cousin, you really have a dark heart."

"I thought Shen Aiqiu was so considerate and gentle, a breath of fresh air. Tsk, tsk, now it seems that there is not a single good person in her family. They are all trying to get other people's property deeds in various ways. How shameless."

This statement is recognized by the vast majority of people, but some people have different opinions.

"Xiaozhu clearly knew the gap between the two, but still agreed. I think there are two possibilities."

"Which two?"

"First, I was annoyed by their constant troubles, so I agreed to give them the title deed out of consideration for our past friendship."

The man paused for a moment, arousing the curiosity of the people around him, and then continued.

"Second, Xiaozhu was very confident that he could win the competition, and he thought it was just a bet, so he just agreed to it, so that he wouldn't be bothered by others during the exam."

Shen Zhizhu gave the man a thumbs up. His analysis was very good and he directly analyzed out the truth.

"Hey! Look, Xiaozhu gave me a thumbs up. One of these two statements must be correct, but I think the second one is more likely."

Shen Xiaojie was not happy about this and he stiffened his neck and yelled.

"Impossible. We grew up together. Shen Zhizhu has no time to study. How can she be better than Shen Aiqiu? This house deed will definitely be ours today."

Li Chunlan revealed Shen Zhizhu's past as if to show off.

"My son is right. Shen Zhizhu lives in my house, eating and drinking at my expense, and she still wants to learn? How can it be so good? She wants to do all the housework, and she won't have any food to eat if she doesn't finish it. In this situation, how can she learn? It's a joke."

"How can you treat children like this? This is abuse!"

Li Chunlan didn't care whether it was abuse or not. She was thick-skinned and remained unmoved no matter what the villagers said about her.

"Whatever you say, Shen Zhizhu, you're going to lose this bet anyway, so why not just hand over the property deed directly?"

Before Shen Zhizhu could turn around, a postman appeared on the deserted path ahead.

"Look, look, someone is coming. It must be the person who delivered the notice."

A surprised voice attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked towards the intersection.

Some people even moved forward a few meters, especially the children in the village, who ran behind the postman's bicycle.

After a while, the postman came to the guy, parked his bike, and then rummaged through the package on the back seat.

"Luckily you're not the first one from the whole village to come out, otherwise I would be scared by your aura, hahahaha."

Village chief Du Zai De thought there would be his son's admission letter inside, and he smiled brightly.

"Isn't it that the college entrance examination has been reinstated? Everyone is excited. Many people in the village have taken the exam. They knew that today was the day for the notification letters to be issued, so they waited early and wanted to witness it with their own eyes."

The postman knew that he felt honored whenever he delivered the admission notices, let alone when someone in the village was taking an exam.

"Your village is really great. Many villages didn't even have one student pass the exam, but you got two students, and both are from Beijing. Your future is limitless!"

"Kyoichi! Oh my god."

The postman's voice was quite loud and the surrounding villagers heard it and all of them exclaimed in surprise, while Shen Ai Qiu and Du Manjun straightened their backs.

If only two people passed the exam, they felt that it must be them. They stood there with their heads held high, waiting for the postman to hand them the acceptance letters.

"Congratulations to Comrade Shen Zhizhu and Comrade Xu Haonan for successfully being admitted to a university in Beijing. Congratulations to Comrade Shen Zhizhu for being admitted to Beijing University! Who are Shen Zhizhu and Xu Haonan?"
