Chapter 169 The whole village is boiling

From the moment the postman Deng Changzhong roared into Naye Village, the news that Deng Yunheng had been admitted to Peking University spread like wildfire. In less than twenty minutes, it spread throughout Naye Village, and even several neighboring villages received the news one after another.

At this time, in front of Deng Shirong's house, all the people from Naye Village, from the elderly to children, as long as they did not go out to work in the village, gathered here.

This was an era when buying a Phoenix brand bicycle could attract half the village to come and watch. Deng Yunheng was the first college student in the village, and he was admitted to the top Peking University. People who got the news could not sit still and naturally ran over to watch the fun.

"Yunheng, you're awesome! This is Peking University, one of the best schools in the country. Being admitted to this school is just like passing the imperial examination in ancient times. You really bring honor to our Naye Village and our Deng family!" Team leader Deng Yunjun stood in front of Deng Yunheng and praised him highly.

Deng Yungui also praised: "Yunheng, you are really amazing. Not only did you create history for our Naye Village, but you also created history for Bangjie Brigade and even the entire Songshan Commune. Apart from you, we haven't heard of anyone in our commune being admitted to Tsinghua University or Peking University."

Deng Changzhong smiled and continued, "I know this better. Since the country resumed the college entrance examination, including this year, our commune has produced a total of 14 college students, but only Uncle Yunheng was admitted to top universities such as Tsinghua University and Peking University."

The other villagers also spoke one after another, using extremely straightforward language, almost praising Deng Yunheng to the point of praising him like a flower.

Deng Yunheng didn't know what to say except to be humble.

On the other side, Guan Yongying, who was holding one of the twin sons, Dai Fanglan, who was pregnant, and Ou Guohua, who had just got married in May, surrounded Deng Yunzhen and Zhang Xiuping, and kept praising Deng Yunheng.

As a father, Deng Shirong was naturally surrounded by people, and nice words kept coming out of the villagers' mouths.

Not long after, the brigade secretary Deng Shi'an, who received the news, also rushed over.

Deng Shi'an is already in his sixties. He is not only the secretary of the Bangjie Brigade, but also the patriarch of the Naye Deng clan. Needless to say, his reputation is very high.

So when they saw him coming, everyone came out to greet him.

Deng Shian walked up to Deng Shirong and said with a big smile, "Old Nine, congratulations, you really gave birth to a good son. Yunheng was admitted to Peking University, which really brought honor to our Deng clan. I plan to let the clan pay for Yunheng to celebrate well, what do you think?"

Nowadays, in the entire Naye Deng family, there are definitely no more than five people who are qualified to call Deng Shirong the ninth, and Deng Shian is undoubtedly one of them.

Deng Shirong smiled and said, "Secretary, we have to celebrate, but the clan doesn't have much money. If I use it to celebrate for my Yunheng, I will feel bad. I'd better pay for the dinner myself!"

Deng Shian waved his hand and said, "Old Nine, you are being too polite. You are also a member of our Deng clan. Now that Yunheng has been admitted to a top university like Peking University, this is the biggest happy event in the clan in decades. If the clan does not express any expression at all, it would be too unreasonable.

So, you don't have to refuse. No matter what, we have to let the clan pay for Yunheng's celebration. This will make our Deng clan more united. Only when we unite can we have strength and make our Deng clan develop better and better. Don't you agree?"

Deng Yungui was the first to agree, "The secretary is right. Yunheng's admission to Peking University is the greatest joyous event for our Deng clan in decades. It is very necessary for the clan to pay for the celebration. Uncle Jiu, don't refuse."

Deng Yunjun nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle Jiu, we all know that you don't want to add burden to the clan, but Yunheng's admission to Peking University is a great event worthy of celebration for the whole clan, so the money should indeed be paid by the clan."

Others followed suit, thinking that such a happy event should be paid for by the clan.

Deng Shirong stopped refusing and nodded, saying, "Okay, then I'll listen to the secretary. I'll pay for a troupe to come over and perform, so we can have a good few days."

Deng Shian smiled and said, "That's fine."

Once the tone is set, the next step is to discuss the details.

In just half an hour, a celebration plan was decided upon, which was basically the same as what Deng Shirong had previously envisioned.

After all the villagers left, Deng Shirong looked at his second son and said, "After lunch, you will ride your bike to inform your third aunt and two uncles, and invite them to come over for your college wine in three days. Tell them about the play, and ask them to bring their clean clothes and stay at home for a few days."

Deng Yunheng nodded and said, "Got it!"

Deng Shirong looked at his eldest daughter-in-law again and said with a smile, "Sister Ping, when Yuntai comes back from work this afternoon, tell him to ride his bike to your parents' home tomorrow and tell your family the good news. Invite them to drink Yunheng's college wine and watch the drama."

"Okay, Dad!" Zhang Xiuping responded happily.

For a married woman, the more powerful her husband's family is, the more face she will have in her parents' family. And vice versa, the more powerful her parents' family is, the more face she will have in her husband's family.

…

noon.

Deng Yunqiang's home.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Seeing her husband and father-in-law coming back from work, Guan Yongying greeted them and said impatiently, "Dad, Brother Fu, Uncle Yunheng from the Jiugong family has been admitted to BJ University!"

Deng Yunqiang and his son were both shocked when they heard this.

Before the country resumed the college entrance examination, they father and son would definitely not have known how awesome Peking University was. But after the news of the country's resumption of the college entrance examination reached the village a few years ago, the few high school students in the village and the educated youth who had not yet returned to the city all went crazy. They studied hard and desperately, just to get a glimmer of hope of getting into university.

At that time, taking the college entrance examination became the most watched event in the village.

Where there is attention, there is naturally discussion. The two famous top universities, Tsinghua University and Peking University, were remembered by the villagers at that time.

So, when Deng Yunqiang and his son heard Guan Yongying say that Deng Yunheng was admitted to Peking University, they were both shocked.

Deng Changfu's eyes widened as he asked, "Yongying, is this true?"

"Of course it's true. The postman delivered the admission letter from Peking University this morning. The whole village ran over to watch. Even the brigade secretary came..." Guan Yongying told her husband and father-in-law everything that had happened in the morning. Deng Yunqiang and his son were so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths.

Deng Yunqiang said with a shocked look on his face: "If you can become a government official after graduating from a technical secondary school, then when Yunheng graduates from Peking University, how high of an official can he become?"

Deng Changfu was also shocked and said, "I don't know, but it should be higher than the commune secretary, right?"
