Chapter 371: Changing Destiny
Fu Jingyou grinned and lifted up Chen Guifen with a look of joy.
"Auntie, where's my wife? Someone's here from the county! She passed the exam, she passed!"
"What?"
"What?!"
"Wasn't Xiaoliu's wife not mentioned in the admission notice? Why did you say she passed?"
Not only was Chen Guifen shocked, but the other members who heard the news were even more shocked.
"Wait... that's Special Agent Hu, right? And who are those people?"
Finally, the people who were watching the excitement turned their eyes to the people who had just turned the corner of the pond and were getting closer and closer with the sound of banging and hammering.
"Could it be that those people are here to look for Xiaoliu's wife?"
Seeing that there were more people coming over with bamboo poles and banners, someone shouted:
"Where are the people who can read? Where are the educated youth comrades? I just saw you there... Who among you can read? Can you show me what's written on that banner?"
There was a commotion outside the door.
In the room, Fu Jingyou had already let go of Chen Guifen, and then, according to what Chen Guifen said, he went to the backyard to find Lu Miao.
There was a lot of noise up ahead.
Lu Miao took the child to the backyard to feed him.
A group of educated youth were in the backyard, playing with Dabao and Erbao while doing some trivial work with Lu Miao.
Everyone gathered together to chat and have fun, and the atmosphere was quite good.
Fu Jingyou was overjoyed. He went into the backyard, took Lu Miao's hand and walked out.
"What are you doing?"
The porridge in Lu Miao's bowl was almost spilled.
Fu Jingyou took her bowl, casually pushed it onto the kitchen table, and continued to pull her out.
"I told you you couldn't fail the exam! People from the county came with banners!"
Not caring whether anyone saw it or not, Fu Jingyou held Lu Miao's face and kissed her excitedly on the face.
"No. 1 in the province, Miaomiao, you are the No. 1 in the province!"
"What?"
Lu Miao was stunned and was led out the door by Fu Jingyou in a daze.
"Provincial No. 1!"
Geng Xiaoyun and others heard the noise and followed behind with their children to see what was going on.
The people from the county had already arrived at the door, and Hu Zhiyuan had already spread the news without He Hongjin asking any questions.
He first introduced the leaders who came one by one, and then pointed to the big words on the banner and read them word by word.
"Provincial No. 1!"
He Hongjin's eyes widened.
"Yes, Captain! I was puzzled when I didn't get Comrade Lu Xiaobao's admission letter last time!"
"Just yesterday, news came from above that there are outstanding comrades in each province who have achieved outstanding results. The top three will receive additional rewards from the province and county, so the rewards will be given out a little later!"
Hu Zhiyuan explained with a smile, looking so happy that those who didn't know him would have thought he was the one who got into university.
So that’s what it is!
The members of Dahe Village showed understanding on their faces, tilted their heads and whispered:
"I was saying, Xiaoliu's wife is so capable! How could she not pass the exam?"
"That's right, and did you hear that? The provincial champion! In the past, the champions would marry princesses!"
"Xiao Liu is so lucky to marry such a capable person!"
The members were talking at once, and He Hongjin listened with his head buzzing. He still couldn't imagine what the results of the provincial champion would be.
Chen Guifen reacted quickly, took out the firecrackers Fu Jingyou had bought for the New Year and set off several strings, laughing and shouting:
"Oh, what a great news! What a great news!"
The women in the village pulled Chen Guifen aside and complimented her:
"Auntie, your family is so lucky to have raised Xiaoliu so well and marry him off to such a good wife!"
People around gave a thumbs up.
Chen Guifen waved her hands, grinning from ear to ear, "How could that be true? The child's abilities are all his own!"
The county leaders looked around and thought that the He couple were Lu Miao's parents-in-law. They stepped forward, shook He Hongjin's hand, and congratulated him repeatedly:
"Old comrade, you are a talent! You have cultivated excellent talents for the country! You have made great contributions!"
He Hongjin laughed dryly, his old face turning red with embarrassment.
This is all the stubborn girl's own ability, how can it have anything to do with him?
But they are all family, and when outsiders complimented and praised his children, He Hongjin became really happy again, grinning and rubbing his short hair and laughing:
"Haha, no, no, that's all the child's own ability!"
He Hongjin saw Fu Jingyou and Lu Miao coming out of the house out of the corner of his eye, and he quickly waved to them.
"Xiao Liu, stubborn girl, here! Come here quickly!"
Fu Jingyou walked closer holding Lu Miao's hand.
He works in the county and the leaders are familiar with him.
When they saw him holding Lu Miao's hand, several leaders immediately knew that this girl was the provincial top student they were looking for!
"Comrade Lu Miao, this is your admission letter. Congratulations on being admitted to the Beijing Military Region University with an excellent score of 381!"
There are five subjects in total in the exam. Lu Miao took the liberal arts exam, which tested Chinese, mathematics, politics, history and geography.
History and geography are minor subjects, and the two subjects are combined into one test paper with a full score of 100 points.
The full marks for several other subjects are also 100 points.
The total score of the five subjects is 400 points. Lu Miao scored 381 points. Even if the 12-point math arithmetic questions are not removed, her total error score for the four test papers is only 19 points.
The results are really quite excellent.
Lu Miao was stunned for a long time.
Fu Jingyou took the admission letter and handed it to her.
The small leader opposite handed a thick red envelope to the big leader.
The leader took it and handed the thick red envelope to Lu Miao:
"This is the province's intention. It's a reward for the provincial champion. Three hundred yuan!"
The crowd took a collective breath.
Three hundred yuan!
All the members were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped.
Three hundred yuan!
That’s three hundred yuan!
Life in the production team has been better in the past two years.
The members participated in collective work, and with the money they saved from raising chickens and pigs, they could save about ten yuan by the end of the year after exchanging it for enough food to fill their stomachs.
But it’s three hundred yuan!
If they save ten yuan at a time, how many years will it take them to save three hundred yuan?
Twenty or thirty years!
But these three hundred yuan alone are not enough.
Lu Miao took the first red envelope, and the smaller leader opposite him stuffed a smaller and relatively thinner red envelope into the larger leader's hand.
"Just now that was the provincial government's decision, now this is the county government's decision."
The leader handed the envelope to Lu Miao again and said with a smile:
"The county originally wanted to give you a bicycle, but since you already have one, they decided to convert the reward into cash."
"Here are two hundred yuan, as well as some industrial coupons and foreign exchange coupons. Buy whatever you want. This is a reward and support from the county organization!"
"When you go to college, grow up, and become a talent to build our country, don't forget that you came from this small place."
As the leader spoke, he turned around and patted Fu Jingyou on the shoulder.
"Looking at the long term, the fate of these young and old people in the village may depend on your generation to change it in the future!"
