On the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, five days before the Chinese New Year, the admission letter had not arrived yet, but a reporter from the provincial newspaper came.

"Your Xiangshui Village Brigade is truly a great place with many talented people. Seven talents from Imperial University were born at once. Not only are there two top scorers in science who tied for first place with super high scores of 393, but there is also a top scorer in liberal arts!"

The team leader and the village chief accompanied the reporter from the provincial newspaper. They listened to people's praises along the way and were very happy. Even their worries about this year's extremely cold weather were alleviated.

The villagers who braved the cold to come out and watch the fun were also proud to hear that their team had produced three top scorers.

"I heard that you approved early vacation for the educated youths at the critical moment of autumn harvest in order to support their college entrance examination. You are so courageous!"

The provincial newspaper reporter also inquired about the news before coming. No one from this educated youth team failed to pass the college entrance examination this year, except for these seven students from the Imperial Capital University. Although the rest were a little worse, they all reached the threshold of college. If one person passed, it can be said that he is very good, but if so many people passed, it proves that this team must have something unique. It has been a hot spot in the college entrance examination in recent years.

"That's right! They have come all the way to our Xiangshui Village Brigade and are now part of our brigade. Of course, we cannot delay the future of these kids at this critical moment. Farming and studying can both contribute to the country!" The brigade leader said honestly, his face full of wrinkles from smiling.

Section 149

"What kind of people are these three top scorers usually?"

The team leader was full of praise, of course: "They are all good kids. Not only are they willing to work hard in the fields, they are also smart and lovable! Moreover, these seven kids usually have a good relationship. Look, this is the educated youth site of our team. It used to be a large hall, and there are small rooms in the back for these kids to live in!"

"Wow! This house is so grand!" The provincial newspaper reporter took a photo.

When Yi Qingqing and the others heard the news, the team leader took them aside one by one and introduced them to the reporters while praising them.

"This is Yi Zhiqing. Not only is she good at reading and writing, she is also good at working in the fields, and her cooking is praised by everyone..."

"This is Yun Zhiqing. Although he doesn't talk much, he works very hard..."

"This is Qian Zhiqing, the teacher of our brigade's literacy class. He has published many articles in newspapers and is willing to endure hardships..."

"This is Li Zhiqing, he is generous and cheerful, and also a good comrade..."

"And this is Wang Zhiqing. He has made great progress since he went to the countryside. This is Chen Zhiqing and this is Xie Zhiqing..."

"Look at how energetic they are. They are all good kids!"

After the captain finished praising, the villagers around him echoed him one after another, and no one sang against it.

Even if the country does not attach importance to the college entrance examination in the future, the Chinese people's admiration for scholars is engraved in their bones, especially these farmers who have not received much education.

They haven't read many books, but they know that reading is good.

What is this top scholar? He is the smartest among the scholars. This halo is incredible.

It was the first time that Yi Qingqing discovered that the captain was so good at boasting, and he never said the same thing twice.

Li Mengxue was dumbfounded. She had never felt so popular in Xiangshui Village. Was she really so generous and open? Wasn't it true that she was so generous that she gave away all her work points and asked others to work for her?

The reporter from the provincial newspaper said that they all got admitted to Imperial Capital University, and three of them were top scorers. The admission letters should arrive in two days.

This was like a reassurance to Yi Qingqing and the others, and the seven of them cheered.

Seeing their appearance, the reporter from the provincial newspaper interviewed them: "I heard that the seven of you are good friends? Did you review together?"

There was nothing to hide about this matter, and everyone talked about the general process of the review, including the fact that they had established the Imperial University College Entrance Examination Study Group.

After the interview, the reporter took a group photo of the seven of them at the entrance of the educated youth site to conclude the interview.

This time, even the team leader started to worry about Yi Qingqing and her friends' admission letters.

In this era, letters were delivered by postmen to every commune and brigade, and the state also equipped them with bicycles. However, the speed was much slower. There was often only one postman in a large area, and letters might have to accumulate for a while before being delivered, and parcels were not delivered.

All the packages sent by Yi Qingqing and her family were only sent to the county town.

However, the admission letter will be sent to the candidate's place of food relations by default.

Therefore, the admission letter should have been delivered to the brigade by the postman, and the brigade leader would then ask someone to pick it up.

The admission letters for seven people were together. The team leader took them and excitedly handed them to them, leaving no one missing.

"You have brought honor to our brigade. You are all great! You all went to college in the same brigade. You should continue to take care of each other. When you have time and work in the future, you can come back to visit. This is your second home!"

The captain said with emotion.

After the New Year, they will go to college, not just the seven of them who did well in the exam, but everyone else as well.

The youngest had stayed in their brigade for more than three years, and the longest had stayed for seven or eight years. In just a few months, the educated youth site would be vacant.

Although these educated youth caused a lot of trouble when they went to the countryside, after a long time, it was hard to bear to see them leave in large numbers suddenly.

But it's all for the future, and the captain is also happy.

Having stayed here for several years, they have indeed left with very good memories. If there is a chance in the future, Yi Qingqing still wants to come back to visit her fellow villagers.

When they received their admission letters, it was already the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, and the Chinese New Year was just two days away. Some of the other educated youth arrived earlier than them.

This year is the last year that Yi Qingqing and her classmates will spend at the educated youth center. Coupled with the joy of going to college soon, they celebrated this year in an exceptionally grand manner.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, Li Mengxue said mysteriously: "I found a good thing at the scrap yard. Guess what it is?"

"What?"

"Hey, hey," Li Mengxue took out a small square thing from her suitcase. "I found these playing cards at the scrap yard. They're still in good condition. I don't have to worry about having nothing to do tonight!"

She originally thought that there were no playing cards in this era, but she didn't expect that people could make these. This deck was not taken from the space, but was actually a Butterfly Poker deck that she found at the scrap yard.

God knows how much she wants to play cards every year during the New Year’s Eve. She has even become so bad at playing idiom chain games!

But now there are eight people and only one deck of cards, so naturally the four girls play cards, and the men assist in the back, in groups of two.
