Chapter 48: The couple talked about the college entrance examination for the first time



"What are you thinking about?"

Along the way, Jiang Yanzhi had already noticed something unusual about his wife.

His wife seemed to be worried about something, but she didn't want to tell him.

"I was thinking that I have to go to work tomorrow and won't be able to have lunch with you!"

"I don't know if you can eat well at home. It would be great if you also had a job in town, then we wouldn't have to be separated!"

Tang Xinyi came back to her senses and found her husband looking at her with worried eyes.

Dear husband, could it be that he suspects that she has a fear of starting a job?

How is that possible?

You know, in later generations, she was a very powerful woman!

Even without any help from anyone, I was able to start from the bottom several times.

What's more, now she has the love of her natal family, the care of her husband's family, and the constant concern of her dear husband.

Tang Xinyi, you should be satisfied!

"Is that all?"

"If my wife needs me, I can find a job in town."

"But you know, I'm usually lazy. The thought of working every day like this makes me a little scared!"

"So let's wait a little longer. Once I can accept the daily routine, I'll find a job and stay with my wife, okay?"

As for work, Jiang Yanzhi felt that no other job could earn more money than what he was doing now.

But he didn't want to tell his family about these things, so as not to make them worry.

It was even more impossible to tell his young wife, although with her cleverness she should have guessed something, but since she didn't ask, Jiang Yanzhi felt that there was nothing wrong with it.

"I'm just saying, it depends on you!"

"You don't have to work, but I hope you don't give up studying. I heard from my mother-in-law that you graduated from high school, right?"

Suddenly remembering that the college entrance examination would be resumed in 1977, Tang Xinyi felt that they didn't have much time left.

"Yeah, I've been graduated for two or three years."

"I didn't study hard when I was little. I was good at math, but I was a bit lagging behind when it came to memorizing texts!"

He doesn't like Chinese class, he thinks it's boring. But he really likes math, physics and chemistry, that's what he calls interesting!

"I remember that my teacher always asked me to recite the text, but I couldn't do it every time, which made my classmates laugh at me!"

"At that time, I was thinking, it would be great if I could skip the Chinese class!"

Thinking about what happened in school, Jiang Yanzhi still felt very uncomfortable.

I guess those classmates still remember how he couldn’t recite the text back then. I hope I’ll never meet those brats in my life.

"Husband, I think our country needs to develop, and it must lack talent."

"You said that all the educated youth in the city went to the countryside, and the children in the countryside can't go any further after high school!"

"If you want to go to school, you have to rely on the village's recommendation quota. Although there are not many high school students in rural areas, there are still many!"

"Are the talents promoted by this quota enough for our country to consume?"

Tang Xinyi certainly couldn't say with certainty that the college entrance examination would be resumed, because then she would have no way to explain why she had the ability to predict the future.

Most of her understanding of this era comes from the content of the novel.

Before this, I had not seriously studied the history of this area. I just understood the general trend, but I didn't remember the specific details.

The best way is to let your dear husband realize the problem himself.

With her help, I believe my husband will be able to get into university with me.

I believe that with the experience of later generations, there is no way I can lag behind the people of this era.

"Yes, my dear, where do we find the talent our country needs? Can a small Workers', Peasants' and Soldiers' University really meet the nation's demand for talent?"

Just think about it, the Qingliu Brigade had to come to the Qingshan Brigade to ask for people just to learn the tea-making skills.

Although there is a reason why they have not reported it yet, the higher-ups are still unaware of it.

But even if we knew, we probably wouldn't be able to send anyone down until next year.

Village chief Zheng just didn't want his uncle's family to get the tea-roasting job, and the team leader also had his own selfish motives.

Perhaps these two even wanted to embezzle the credit for discovering tea.

Jiang Yanzhi couldn't do anything openly. If he couldn't get rid of these two village officials in one fell swoop, it would not be a good thing for his uncles' families if he stepped forward.

"I think one day the country will reinstate the college entrance examination!"

"Think about it, if the college entrance examination is not reinstated, where will the future of millions of students be?"

"We can't just throw all the talent we've painstakingly trained for over a decade back into the countryside to farm, right?"

"When it comes to farming, these weak scholars with pens are no match for us ordinary people."

"Isn't this just destroying the fruits of your hard work?"

Tang Xinyi spoke of what would happen in the future in a speculative tone.

She hopes her dear husband can take this seriously. She believes that with his intelligence, he will definitely be well prepared.

"Wife, I think what you said makes sense!"

"We worked so hard for so many years to graduate from high school. There's no reason for the higher-ups to block our path to progress!"

"It seems that we still can't let our guard down when it comes to studying!"

"I'll go find some math, physics, and chemistry books. We can read them when we have free time. Just in case you need them one day in the future, it's safest to keep the knowledge in your head!"

Jiang Yanzhi had never thought about this problem before. All he was thinking about was how to make more money.

After his wife's reminder today, Jiang Yanzhi felt that he had underestimated her before.

The daughter-in-law's vision is no smaller than his.

After returning home, I went straight to my father-in-law to get a certificate of food transfer.

From now on, Tang Xinyi will also be a public servant.

Next, he packed up his things and took them to the house that Jiang Yanli rented in town.

In the future, if they get off work too late, the two of them can stay in town for one night without having to walk at night.

The common people of this era were simple and honest, and were busy earning their wages in the fields.

There are also some idle scoundrels who tie red ribbons on their arms and sing red songs everywhere during the day.

I could never stay at home peacefully at night and had to hang out outside all night.

What exactly did you do?

Who knows!

I heard that young girls had gotten into trouble on the roads leading to towns from various rural areas.

Some are during the day, some are at night.

But no one can tell whether such trouble will come to him.

So if there is something going on at home, Jiang Xian or Jiang Yanzhi will pick her up whenever Jiang Yanli gets off work late.

If everything is fine at home, it would be safer to stay in town directly after get off work late.

This was Tang Xinyi's first time coming to Jiang Yanli's residence.

This was originally a large courtyard, divided into three parts, each with a separate door.
