The next day, Gao's wife, sporting dark circles under her eyes, told everyone she met that her daughter-in-law had gone mad, sharpening a knife in the middle of the night to take everyone down with her.
Upon hearing the news, the aunties, who had been given a lot of advice by Ruan Xianxian, felt even more uncertain.
Just like that guy said, the Gao family really did cause trouble. I'm not sure yet, let's wait and see!
The woman sharpened her knife for three days, during which time she was locked in a room and forced to dismantle the bed and windows, leaving the broken pieces of wood on the ground to continue sharpening.
The women weren't afraid of being locked up either; the old mud-brick houses in the village were the kind that could be kicked down if you kicked them a few times.
Yesterday, she kicked down a wall, went berserk, and set fire to a pile of firewood, completely driving the entire Gao family to a mental breakdown!
With such a commotion, the fire naturally didn't ignite, but it couldn't stop the woman from laughing maniacally.
"Keep trying to stop us. If we don't succeed today, we'll torment each other for the rest of our lives."
"You can kill me, but think about the consequences. Be careful not to offend the brigade leader and have your whole family come down to keep me company."
The Gao family was terrified by her reckless behavior and held an emergency meeting that night to decide that the second son should divorce her, as the Gao family could not afford to have such a troublemaker.
He was unwilling in his second year of high school, but his mother forced him to get a divorce because he was a "filial son and virtuous grandson".
Wang Yan successfully returned to the educated youth settlement to prepare for the college entrance examination. When no one was around, she solemnly thanked Ruan Xianxian.
As for the children...
In her own words: What's wrong with staying in the countryside? When I make something of myself in the future, I'd be happy to come to the city with my husband and enjoy a comfortable life.
Those who hate me, let's go our separate ways.
Ruan Xianxian nodded, clearly aware of the situation.
In the same situation, she would make the same choice as Wang Yan.
With successful examples, the daughters and daughters-in-law each showed their unique talents.
Some sat down to negotiate with their in-laws, while others wrote pledges promising not to abandon their husbands and children even after getting into university…
In short, thanks to the intervention of Ruan Xianxian and Hu Heshuo, the Pingtou Brigade achieved a positive outcome.
Whether or not they have the ability to take the college entrance exam, they all want to try their luck.
What if it works!
The brigade entered an unprecedented wave of learning, and from time to time, some young people with questions would come to the Iron Triangle Courtyard.
The three women were generous with their knowledge, and when they taught others, they would also review the knowledge points themselves, and occasionally they would have a flash of inspiration.
Of course, those who didn't even have a primary school diploma but still came to make up the numbers were unceremoniously grabbed by the collar and thrown out by Ruan Xianxian.
The outcome was good, but according to Miyano, the situation outside was not optimistic.
Mao Dun's conflicts often erupted between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law, but there were also brigade leaders who took a liking to young educated youths and wanted to keep them in the brigade to have children for the men.
They suppressed the youth at every turn, assigned them tasks, and left them no time to study.
In contrast, the students in the Pingtou Brigade preparing for the college entrance examination are fortunate!
Filling out forms and undergoing physical examinations, the three shared the same goal: Tsinghua University!
Finally, the day of the exam arrived.
It was snowing heavily that day. Thanks to Gong Ye, he borrowed a few soldiers and two military vehicles from his father, along with a tractor, and used them to pull the commune's examinees straight to the examination hall.
On the bus, Wang Yan was restless.
She didn't cry when she went to the countryside, she didn't cry when she got married, and she didn't cry when she was tormented by her in-laws for ten years. But now, thinking about not being able to get into university and possibly being trapped in the village for the rest of her life, she cried!
Ruan Xianxian closed her eyes to rest.
When they arrived at their destination, everyone got off the bus first, leaving Wang Yan behind, who was trembling with fear.
Are you afraid of dying?
Wang Yan said firmly, "I'm not afraid. There's no one in the world more terrifying than the Gao family."
"That settles it then." Ruan Xianxian smiled. "You're not even afraid of death. If you don't pass the exam this year, you can try again next year. What could be more terrifying than being trapped in the Gao family?"
Wang Yan stopped trembling, her eyes shining with an unprecedented light, and she gripped the military green satchel tightly in her palm.
"I see.
Comrade Ruan, thank you for your long-term help.
If I, Wang Yan, have a future, I will never forget this kindness I have received today!
Ruan Xianxian raised her hand and patted her shoulder, winking playfully, "For this favor, I'll give you another chance."
Wang Yan was one of the few people in the educated youth settlement, besides Zhao Di, who had shown her kindness in her previous life.
Unfortunately, she herself was imprisoned and could not offer much help, but Ruan Xianxian remembered it and had been waiting for this opportunity.
She whispered in a low voice, "For the questions you can't answer later, you should praise the motherland, the leaders, and the people, and recite the Little Red Book from memory."
Meeting Wang Yan's astonished gaze, he said, "Believe me, no one will dare to reject your exam paper. Fill out your college application now, and you'll have a good outcome."
After saying that, she jumped out of the car and let Miyano organize her stationery bag.
They encouraged each other as they entered the examination room.
Behind her, Wang Yan's eyes welled up with tears again. She forced them back, got off the bus, and took firm steps.
During the three days of the college entrance examination, six people squeezed together to stay in a small courtyard in her county town, with boys in one room and girls in another.
On the last day, as Ruan Xianxian walked out of the examination hall, she was like a wild horse that had broken free of its reins, and even Gong Ye couldn't stop her.
She snatched little Yunxi from her grandmother's arms, who was taking care of her because of her exams. The little girl was one year and one month old and was growing more and more beautiful.
She grew up in the best-looking parts of her parents' bodies, and when she sits there still, she looks even more like a doll than her mother.
She drinks from the sacred spring water and eats food carefully cooked by her father. Her big, grape-like eyes sparkle with intelligence, and she lets her exuberant mother lift her up and spin her around.
The little mouth giggled and giggled, "Mommy's great, so great!"
In that instant, Ruan Xianxian felt that all her college entrance exam results were far away, and all she could think about was her precious child!
As Miyano slowly walked out of the examination hall, she stopped a short distance away and looked at the mother and daughter, one big and one small, in front of her. She felt that her life was complete.
He stepped forward and embraced the mother and daughter.
