Before Jiang Suinsui revealed the answer, Song Yuxue, who had been waiting by the side, could no longer hold back and quickly raised her hand and said, "I know, I know! Brother got first place! And first place in the province!"

Jiang Suisui smiled and said, "Good girl, Xiaoxue, you got it right! Is your brother awesome?"

Song Yuxue: "Awesome!"

Jiang Suisui touched her head and encouraged her, "Xiaoxue should study hard like her brother and get first place in the exam in the future."

Song Yuxue nodded, and looked at Jiang Suishun with longing in her eyes: "Well! I have to learn from Sister Suishun too! My brother said that it was Sister Suishun who taught me well."

Jiang Suisui raised an eyebrow and looked at Song Weizheng, saying, "Huh? Comrade Xiao Song still praises me so much in private?"

Song Weizheng hugged her, lowered his head and whispered in her ear: "Without the encouragement of Teacher Sunsun, I would not be who I am today."

Jiang Suisui pursed her lips and smiled, feeling a little happy: "Okay, okay, stop being so sweet."

She took Song Weizheng and walked into the house, picked up another envelope on the table, and said, "This was sent by the city leader who delivered the notice today. He said it's a reward for the first place. You have one and I have one too. You never thought about it, did you? You can make money by studying!"

Song Weizheng opened it and took a look. It wasn't much money, only a few dozen yuan, but it was indeed a pleasant surprise. He weighed it in his hand and felt that it was more valuable than what he usually earned.

Jiang Suinsui has begun to think: "This money is enough for tuition, travel expenses, and living expenses for a period of time. We haven't even used the money we saved. By the way, the notice says that school will start in the spring. Time is a bit tight. We have to leave for Beijing after the New Year. We must hurry to pack our luggage. I also have to say goodbye to Cuizhu, and you should also remember to say goodbye to Tiezhu..."

In Jiang Suinsui's fond imagination, her second Spring Festival in Dayan Village passed in a lively and peaceful manner.

There are still many people coming to pay New Year's greetings today, but more of them are just passing by to ask Jiang Suisui for advice.

Either ask her how she learned it, or remind her not to forget her fellow villagers when she becomes successful.

Surprisingly, the original Jiang Suinsui's biological mother, who had not shown up for many years, came to the door. She cried and hugged Jiang Suinsui, calling her her sweetheart and obedient child, which made her very embarrassed. In the end, she was sent away by Grandma Jiang.

Grandma Jiang sighed, "For some relatives who are not related to you at all, just ignore them and go to school. As for your mother, she gave birth to several sons later. She didn't raise you, so it's not your turn to raise her. If she comes again, I will send her away for you."

Jiang Suisui was moved and hugged Grandma Jiang, saying, "Grandma, I will recognize you. When I become successful in the future, I will take you to the city to enjoy a good life. If you don't want to live in the city, I will build you a big house in the village so that you can live comfortably."

Grandma Jiang was delighted to hear this: "Okay, okay, I'll wait for my family to take me to enjoy happiness."

After the Spring Festival, Grandma Jiang started to help her pack her luggage. She packed several large bundles of clothes and quilts. Seeing this, Jiang Suisui was so busy that she said, "Grandma, the weather will be warmer in a month or two. We don't need to bring all the thick winter clothes, right? The same goes for quilts. They are too big and take up too much space. Why don't we just not bring them? I'll buy some when we get there."

"How can that be possible?" Grandma Jiang said disapprovingly. "I heard that Beijing is much colder than here. What if you don't bring more and get frozen there? And how can the quilt you bought be better than the one we made ourselves? It's a complete waste of money!"

Jiang Suisui looked at the luggage piled higher than her height and said helplessly, "But I can't carry so much..."

Grandma Jiang: "Let Song Weizheng carry it, you just need to carry the lighter ones."

Jiang Suisui thought, even if Song Weizheng could carry so much luggage, he didn’t have that many hands…

Jiang Suishun couldn't persuade Grandma Jiang, so he had to ask Song Wei Zheng for help. No one knew how he persuaded her, but in the end Grandma Jiang actually agreed to take only some simple clothes and go into battle lightly.

But on the last day of her departure, Grandma Jiang still stuffed a big bag of food into Jiang Sui Sui's arms, and said worriedly: "I prepared some steamed buns and eggs for you, all fresh and hot, as well as dried fish and bacon from the winter sun, and pickled vegetables I just pickled. Take the steamed buns and eggs in the car to eat, don't let them go bad. Take the dried fish, bacon and pickled vegetables to school and eat them with your meals. Take care of yourself, don't get hungry or frozen!"

Jiang Suisui felt like crying after hearing this. She sniffed and went forward to hug Grandma Jiang: "Grandma... I can't bear to leave you."

Grandma Jiang smiled and patted her on the back: "You are already 19 but still act like a child. Grandma can't bear to leave you. Remember to write back when you leave. Even if I can't read, I can find someone to help me read."

"Yeah!" Jiang Suishun nodded vigorously.

Grandma Jiang was still worried, so she pulled Song Weizheng along and told them, "Take good care of Suisui on the way. I heard there are a lot of pickpockets on the train, so you should hide your money. Buy a blanket and daily necessities as soon as you get there, don't delay. Suisui has told me about your mother and your sister. Our two families live close to each other, so it's convenient for us to visit each other. You don't have to worry, we will take care of each other."

Song Rulan also stepped forward and said, "Yes, A Zheng, if you take good care of Suisui and yourself, we will be relieved."

Song Weizheng nodded and said solemnly: "Okay, don't worry!"

Finally, under the earnest gazes of Grandma Jiang and Song Rulan, and with Song Yuxue constantly waving goodbye, Jiang Suisui and Song Weizheng embarked on the journey to Beijing to study.

·

When Jiang Suishun just left, she looked back every three steps, reluctant to leave.

She thought that she would be as happy as a bird set free on the day she passed the college entrance examination and left. However, after staying there for more than a year, she had already developed an indelible affection for the people and things in the village.

Song Weizheng touched her head and comforted her: "Don't be sad, we will have a summer vacation in half a year and then we can come back."

Jiang Suisui said gloomily: "Hmm..."

However, after experiencing the bumps of the ox cart, the swirls of the car, and the crowded train station, her melancholy finally dissipated.

Jiang Suisui looked at the crowd at the train station and said in amazement, "There are too many people!"

Is this the flow of people in the 1970s? Why does it feel more terrifying than in the 21st century?

Song Weizheng put his arm around her shoulders and said, "There are a lot of people here, hold on tight and don't get lost!"

Jiang Suinsui nodded quickly. She held the bag in one hand and tightly grasped Song Weizheng's clothes with the other. With his arms as a shield, she avoided the fierce crowding and collision with passers-by, and finally got on the bus safely.

Although it was still the cold weather of late winter and early spring, Jiang Suishun was sweating.

After getting on the bus, Song Wei Zheng helped her find a seat and sit down first, and then went to put the luggage away.

The train was no more crowded than the rest of the country. There were still a lot of people, and the luggage was even piled on the ground. Jiang Suisui walked along, almost on tiptoe, looking for a place to step.

After finally finding a seat and sitting down, she just breathed a sigh of relief when a middle-aged woman holding a child suddenly came over and said righteously, "Girl, move in."

Jiang Suisui was also confused, and subconsciously moved closer. Then the man sat down rudely, squeezing Jiang Suisui so hard that she leaned further inside, causing dissatisfaction among the people sitting inside.

Jiang Suisui looked down and saw that most of the limited seats were occupied by the middle-aged woman, so she could only sit in the gap between the seats.

She couldn't help but reach out and poke, whispering: "This elder sister..."

"What are you doing?" The eldest sister turned around to look at her, and the child in her arms also turned around, and with a "wow" sound, started crying in front of Jiang Suisui.

"Oh, don't cry, don't cry." The elder sister quickly coaxed the child, pulled the collar, and fed the child in front of everyone, "Don't cry when you're full."

Jiang Sui Sui: !!!

While feeding the baby, the elder sister chatted with Jiang Suishun idly: "Sister, how old are you? Are you married? Do you have children?"

Jiang Sui Sui: …

When Song Wei Zheng came back after putting away his luggage, he saw Jiang Suishun squeezed in the middle of the seat, chatting and laughing awkwardly with the older sister next to her.

When Jiang Suishun saw Song Weizheng coming back, she immediately rushed over as if she had seen a savior, with helplessness revealed in her eyes.

Song Wei Zheng walked forward and took a look, then picked up his ticket and found his seat, only to discover that it was also occupied by someone else.

He frowned and looked around. It was noisy and crowded.

After thinking for a while, he said to Jiang Suisui, "You sit down first. I'll look ahead and come back soon."

Jiang Suinsui nodded and watched him leave the car and walk to the front.

The elder sister asked while teasing the child: "Is that your man?"

Jiang Suisui smiled awkwardly and said, "No... she's my boyfriend."

"Hey, that's the same idea." The elder sister said casually, "You're a good boy, and you look really energetic. Are you two going to visit relatives?"

Jiang Suisui shook her head: "No...we are going to school."

"Oh my!" The eldest sister exclaimed in amazement, "He's in college? That's amazing! He's a talent!"

She coaxed the child in her arms and said, "My dear, look at your sister. She is so successful. You should also take advantage of her and go to college for me in the future."

As she said this, she was about to stuff the child into Jiang Suinsui's arms.

Jiang Sui Sui: !!!

She was at a loss as to whether to push or catch the child. Before she could react, the eldest sister stuffed the child into her arms. Jiang Suisui could only stiffly stretch out her hands to hold the child to prevent him from falling.

The eldest sister: "Sister, please help me look after the baby for a while, I'm going to the toilet!"

Jiang Suisui just watched her elder sister leave her seat, leaving herself and the little kid staring at each other with eyes rolling around.

After sitting like this for a while, Jiang Suishun felt like she was sitting there until the end of time, and Song Weizheng finally came back.

He saw Jiang Sui Sui holding a child in her arms and couldn't help laughing and asked, "What happened?"

Jiang Suisui quickly called out to him, "Hurry, hurry, hurry! Help me pick up this child, my legs are numb!"
