After about an hour and a half, Shen Anning drove Geng Yue to the gate of the County No. 1 Middle School and took out her things. Because today was the first day of school, parents could also help send things into the dormitory building. Geng Yue had her high school entrance examination transcript and admission notice, so after packing her things in the dormitory, she could go directly to the classroom to report.
"Yueyue, go to the classroom first. Don't keep the teacher waiting for too long. It's your first day here, so you should leave a good impression on the teacher." Shen Anning helped deliver the things to the dormitory and let Geng Yue go first.
"An Ning, let me accompany you. I have met the school principal once before."
Shen Anning pushed him directly to the stairs and said, "No need. I'll go to the principal's office later. You go to the classroom first. Be obedient and study hard."
After pushing Geng Yue to the classroom, Shen Anning walked around the campus alone. It looked quite big, with a small playground. The teaching building and dormitory were also two-story buildings, which were quite special and had a bit of European architectural style.
After most of the people who sent their children had left, Shen Anning found the principal's office, which was the easternmost room on the first floor of the teaching building.
"Boom, boom, boom,"
"Hello, is anyone there?"
"Come in."
Shen Anning pushed the door open and saw that the room was simply furnished. "Hello, is this Principal Zheng?"
"Who are you?"
He walked to the table and stood still. "Hello, Principal. I'm an educated youth sent to work in the countryside in Fangshan Commune, Heishan County. My name is Shen Anning. I was admitted to high school in Beijing, but I only studied for half a year before being sent to work in the countryside. However, I have always wanted to finish high school. With the approval of the village committee, I hope to transfer my high school enrollment here. I hope you can give me a chance."
Zheng Guangming looked at Shen Anning, neither humble nor arrogant, and his first impression was okay, "Our school has had a case like yours before, but you need to take a test. If the results are okay, then our school can accept you."
Shen Anning agreed readily. After all, he had lived for many years, so doing a test paper was no problem for him.
The test paper Zheng Guangming took out was the entrance examination paper for the freshmen of high school two years ago. All the subjects were on one test paper. Shen Anning glanced at it and found that it was not a difficult problem, especially the mathematics, which was very simple and required almost no thinking. Shen Anning did it from beginning to end. Except for the composition, there was no problem with the other subjects.
It took about an hour for Shen Anning to finish all the questions and handed the test paper to Zheng Guangming, who corrected it on the spot. Except for a few mistakes in Chinese, the rest were all correct. Zheng Guangming was very impressed after correcting the paper. It was such a pity for him. If the college entrance examination had not been cancelled, he would definitely be a good seedling for college.
"Okay, Shen Zhiqing, I accept you as a student on behalf of the school. I know that you educated youth cannot come to attend classes, but you must remember to study while working. You must take the school's midterm and final exams every year. Only if you pass can you be issued a high school diploma."
Shen Anning was very happy, “Okay, please rest assured, Principal, I will definitely take part in the school exam.”
Because the school had just started, Shen An Ning had to start over from the first year of high school. He paid five yuan for tuition and textbook fees, and received a set of first-year high school textbooks from the logistics department. Hearing the sound of students reading in the classroom, he did not disturb Geng Yue anymore. He left a small package at the guard post, which contained a pound of egg cake and two pounds of rhubarb rice. After leaving a note for the guard, Shen An Ning left. Nowadays, the guards are very responsible. They eat the country's food and will not engage in corruption. Otherwise, if they are found out, they will be sent to prison.
Putting the few books in her hand into the backpack, Shen Anning thought that since she had finally come to the county, she must go shopping, although she had nothing missing.
Thinking that the last time he came to Geng Chengyi's house was before the Chinese New Year, he had to visit him this time. Afraid that no one was at home, Shen Anning went directly to the armed forces department and took out a vegetable basket from his backpack, which contained a pound of sachima, a pound of ox tongue biscuits, and two strips of bacon.
Sure enough, when Geng Chengyi saw Shen Anning brought so many things, he refused to take them no matter what. "Uncle Chengyi, don't worry, there are still a lot left at home. These are all sent by my aunt and uncle. Please accept them quickly."
Shen Anning was very strong, and Geng Chengyi couldn't argue with her. He smiled helplessly and accepted the things. The guard at the door glanced at them several times.
Shen Anning told Geng Chengyi about his trip to the county to find a school to enroll in, and received affirmation from him.
"Okay, uncle, I'll be leaving first. Don't see me off. Go back to work." Shen Anning pedaled out, and Geng Chengyi looked at him with a mixture of laughter and tears.
I rode my bike to the scrap collection station. Although I never thought that I would get rich by picking up bargains at the scrap station and become successful, it was still worth taking a look. Maybe I would get unexpected gains like last time.
There were few people at the scrap collection station today, only the gatekeeper. Shen Anning took out a dime and stuffed it in. "Hello, uncle, I'm here to find some newspapers and scrap wood."
"Come in."
Shen Anning watched the gatekeeper stuff the money into his pocket without even raising his eyelids.
With empty hands, Shen An Ning walked in and felt empty. No wonder only the old man was there today. The other staff should have shipped the things out.
Anyway, she was alone, so Shen An Ning explored each room one by one, looking for a piece of wood. This time, there was nothing special, just an ordinary piece of wood, unlike the one she took in town last time. She rummaged through the garbage pile and first found some newspapers, stacked them up, and put them aside.
After searching for a long time, I found an ordinary mahogany box, but it had a layer. I put it away first and walked to the door with the newspaper to weigh it.
The quantity was not much, so the old man charged her 1.2 cents. Shen An Ning picked up the newspaper and put it in her backpack, then went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a pound of Changbai cake and a pound of Luguo. She didn't need anything else, so she didn't stay in the county town for long. Today she entrusted her little niece to Aunt Sufen, so she had to go back quickly, otherwise the little girl would probably make a fuss.
