Pei Yuanzheng's gentle yet firm eyes conveyed his truest thoughts to Ruan Niannian.
"Okay." Ruan Niannian finally made up her mind to go to school.
As for what major to study, her insights today gave her some ideas, "I want to study fashion design."
Pei Yuanzheng understood why she wanted to study fashion design after a little thought, and he showed his full support.
"Sister, aren't you going to take the college entrance examination too? Perhaps you can study the same major. The collision of ideas may make your studies more colorful."
His suggestion made Ruan Niannian's eyes light up, and she quickly took out the letter paper and wrote a letter to Ruan Sisi.
Ruan Sisi originally joined the factory because she was interested in making clothes. She probably took the college entrance examination with all her might, and didn't even think about what major she would study.
In order to take care of her family nearby, she would definitely choose a university in Suicheng, and the Silk College of Suicheng University just met most of their needs.
"Wife, let's write it tomorrow. It's hurtful to your eyes to leave the light on at night." Pei Yuanzheng felt a little distressed.
But he knew that this was the path of progress that Ruan Niannian had chosen, and he could not stop her. All he could do was support her to the greatest extent possible.
He was even considering whether he should ask Political Commissar Lu from Beijing City to help get some study materials.
Ruan Niannian listened to the advice and immediately put down the pen. "Okay, let's take a rest today. I'll think about how to tell her tomorrow. Anyway, there's still a lot of time, so there's no need to rush."
She still has a long life ahead of her, whether it is to maintain health or seek development, she must seize the opportunity and enjoy the best life!
Ruan Niannian and Ruan Sisi exchanged letters. Ruan Sisi would send some teaching supplementary books to Ruan Niannian from time to time. Since she was in the city, it was always more convenient for her to get something than Ruan Niannian.
Not to mention that Ruan Zhengyang is there to support them.
Seeing Ruan Niannian immersed in study most of the time except for eating, sleeping and coaxing the baby, Pei Yuanzheng also felt very motivated.
He took Pei Qingyang with him and, using his connections, went to Xi County, where he acquired a central location in the county seat as the venue for his business.
The direction of Ruan Niannian's breakfast shop was also adjusted. Li Jinhua, who had been hiding behind the scenes, was persuaded by her to take over the commune's breakfast shop, while Wu Xinghua went to the county town.
I set out early in the morning at daybreak every day and don’t get home until almost noon.
Pei Qinggang was so distressed that he kept wanting to help Pei Qingshan generate income and make political achievements. He hoped that Pei Qingshan would be promoted to the county seat so that he could be with his wife and Wu Xinghua wouldn't have to run back and forth so tired.
In the blink of an eye, it was September. Those who were more informed at home had already received the signal that the college entrance examination had been resumed and began to get textbooks and supplementary teaching materials everywhere.
Most of the educated youth wanted to escape the poverty and backwardness of the countryside by getting into college and return to the city to start a new life.
On October 12, the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination was published in the newspapers. All major mainstream newspapers reposted the news and competed to report it, which completely set off a craze for the college entrance examination.
Happy and enthusiastic:
"I knew it, I knew it, the country will never give up on us, we finally have a chance to return to the city!"
"I must pass the exam and go back home. I can't stay here for another day. I have to study! I have to work hard! I want to go home!"
"Dad! Mom! I will definitely get into college through my own efforts, make a name for myself, and let you live a good life in the future!"
Sad and desperate:
"Eleven years! Eleven years! Why is it only now being restored? I have been in the countryside for ten years and have forgotten everything I should have forgotten. How can I take the college entrance examination?"
"Why? Why? Why did the college entrance examination have to be resumed only after I chose to marry and have children in the countryside? If I return to the city, what will happen to my children? Who will take care of them?"
Cruel and resolute:
"In order to return to the city, I will do whatever it takes! How can that village woman be worthy of me? When I pass the college entrance examination and return to the city, I can have any woman I want."
"Children? You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. What's the use of a child for the sake of returning to the city? I will have children in the future, but if I miss the opportunity to return to the city, I may lose it. I can't hesitate!"
…
No matter what their mentality is, no matter whether they have learned it, not learned it, or have forgotten it, they are all fighting and working hard to return to the city.
However, most people are powerless.
Firstly, they have been away from school for too long and have worked in the fields for too long, so many people have forgotten what they learned.
Secondly, teaching materials are difficult to obtain. Slightly better places can still get old textbooks from scrap yards and bookstores. But in outdated places, like the Heping Commune where Ruan Niannian is located, it is almost impossible to find a book.
Many leading cadres donated generously to provide students with opportunities to review.
Pei Qingshan is no exception.
Secretary Peng will be promoted at the end of the year. He is just one step away from securing his position as the successor to the secretary. He has the income, but what he lacks are tangible political achievements in other areas that can convince people!
Pei Qingshan was extremely worried about the college entrance examination. Other commune leaders with connections were all looking for channels to get textbooks and materials, but he, a mere peasant, had no idea where to start.
I was so anxious that my mouth was full of blisters. I couldn't eat or sleep.
Seeing his anxious look, Liu Ping couldn't help but roll her eyes, "Pei Qingshan, Pei Qingshan, you are really promising. How difficult is this? You thought about it for so long."
Pei Qingshan's eyes lit up instantly, and he jumped up and hugged Liu Ping, "Wife, I know you have a way. You are much better than me. Tell me quickly, where can I get the book?"
