Sitting in the classroom, her hands and feet were cold, but Jiang Wanyue's heart was burning.
As soon as the test paper was handed out, she lowered her head and started to do the questions. These questions were much simpler than those in her previous life.
She wrote furiously.
The college entrance examination lasted for two days. When I came out of the examination room, the sun had not yet set. The golden light shone on the earth, making people see hope in the distance.
Three people from the Song family took the college entrance examination, so the whole Song family went to the county town to pick them up.
Yang Yulan hurriedly asked her second son: "Jianhua, how did you do in the exam? Are you confident?"
Song Jianhua scratched the back of his head and said embarrassedly: "It's so difficult. Mathematics is the most difficult. I don't know either."
Song Laoer's son said guiltily: "I also think it's very difficult. I'm afraid I won't be able to pass the exam."
Zhou Xiugui looked at Jiang Wanyue: "Wanyue, what about you?"
When I asked this question, many people nearby leaned over to listen.
Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "I don't know until the results come out. Let's go back first."
Song Dahai said generously: "What are you going to do? Since we are in the county, we should have a good meal. Let's go, my old couple will treat us to a meal at the state-owned restaurant."
There were more than ten or twenty people from the Song family, and they all went to a state-owned restaurant. There were only four dishes they could order, so they ordered two plates of each dish, and everyone couldn't stop eating.
For so many people, the meal cost less than ten dollars.
Jiang Wanyue once again sighed at how cheap prices were in this era.
We also met Lin Jin's family at the state-owned restaurant. Both Lin Jin and Tian Dawei had taken the college entrance examination. The couple were comparing answers. Lin Jin must have made a mistake and was so angry that she slapped Tian Dawei twice. She was a little dissatisfied and came to Jiang Wanyue: "What is the answer to the last math question?"
Jiang Wanyue gave a number, and Lin Jin cried out, "It's over. I made a mistake. I can't get into university."
Jiang Wanyue asked curiously, "It's just one question that I got wrong. It's not a big deal. By the way, which university did you apply to?"
These days you fill out your application form first and then take the college entrance exam. That means you have to choose the university you want to attend in the future when you have no idea about your academic results. This is much more difficult than filling out your application form after the scores are released in later generations.
"I applied for Hu Province University." Lin Jin sighed, "Luckily I filled in the second choice, Normal College, so I should be able to get in."
Tian Dawei also asked Jiang Wanyue a few questions, and both of them gave the same answers.
"By the way, Wanyue, which school did you apply for?"
Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "Capital University."
When these words were spoken, everyone eating in the state-owned restaurant was stunned.
Because of the college entrance examination fever, during this period, even people who could not read knew what Capital University meant. It was the highest institution of learning in the country.
How dare anyone apply to this university?
So confident?
I want to see which one is so awesome!
"Isn't that Director Jiang?"
"So it's Director Jiang. Now I understand."
"He's so talented. Going to a university in Beijing is nothing."
After finishing her meal and returning home, Jiang Wanyue sat in the car and found that her parents-in-law seemed to be hesitant to talk.
When she got home, she smiled and said, "Mom and Dad, if you have anything to say, just tell me."
Zhou Xiugui sighed: "It's a good thing that you can be admitted to Beijing University, but if you go to such a far place, what will happen to your three children?"
"I was just about to tell my parents about this." Jiang Wanyue thought for a moment and said, "After I decided to take the college entrance examination, I thought about how to arrange for my three children. I couldn't just leave them at home, so I decided to keep them with me. Wherever I go to college, they will study there. The four of us, mother and children, will not be separated."
"Okay, okay, that's good!"
Zhou Xiugui and Song Dahai were overjoyed.
Although they knew that the fourth daughter-in-law was not an irresponsible person, their own biological son Song Desheng abandoned his wife and children before, so they were still a little worried that the fourth daughter-in-law would abandon her three children after she had a bright future.
Fortunately, nothing like that happened.
After being happy, Zhou Xiugui frowned again: "But you also have to go to school, how can you handle it?"
"So, I have another unwelcome request." Jiang Wanyue said sincerely, "The country takes into account that most college students will bring their families with them, so it allows family members to go to college in the city with them. Mom, can you go to the capital with me?"
"Me?" Zhou Xiugui was shocked. "Go to the capital? Can I go to the capital in my lifetime?"
For a simple countryman, going to the capital is like going to the place where the emperor used to stay, which feels unreal.
While she was still in a daze, Song Dahai slapped her on the shoulder: "Wanyue is waiting for your answer."
"Go, go, I'll go!" Zhou Xiugui grinned, "It's only natural for a grandmother to take care of her grandson. Wanyue, just go to college without worry!"
Not long after, the commune began to receive admission letters from various universities.
In their Xiaojing Brigade, there were twelve educated youths, eight of whom were from the village, who were admitted to university. Even if it was only the worst school, it was enough to bring honor to the family. The admission rate of their village was the highest in the entire county, and even in the entire province.
It happened to be Chinese New Year, and the village was filled with joy and firecrackers were set off everywhere.
This year, Jiang Wanyue also arranged for the film studio to come to the brigade to show movies and perform operas, and the lively performances lasted until the first month of the lunar year.
In March, I have to report to the university.
During this period, Jiang Wanyue arranged all the work and let the deputy factory director take over. She was still the factory director, but her future task was to open up the market in Beijing and open their stores in every place in Beijing.
At the same time, she also handled the transfer procedures for the children.
At the end of February, we were ready to set off for the capital.
