The next morning, Tian Wenjun's life seemed to have returned to what it was more than twenty days ago.
From now on, she will have to go back and forth between these two points.
But that's all we can do.
Chen Baoguo also set off for the border, and He Damei also started working.
Nothing seems to have changed, but in fact everything has changed.
Tian Wenjun and He Damei officially started working, and Zhang Guilan was also happy.
The state-owned restaurant is back to normal.
In early July 1978, Chen Liye entered the college entrance examination room. Among 6.1 million students, the admission rate was less than 1.8%.
Chen Liye was taking the exam in the examination room while Chen Xiaolan was waiting outside.
Chen Kaifang and his wife were also worried, but they did not go to the city.
A few days later, Chen Liye finished his college entrance examination, followed by Chen Xiaolan's high school entrance examination.
The examination time is different in each province, but the difference is not too big.
As for Tian Wenjun, there are not many people in the restaurant these days.
That day, she and He Damei were sitting in a restaurant to enjoy the cool air. The weather in June was extremely hot. Tian Wenjun was holding a fan in her hand and fanning herself constantly.
He Damei looked listless. Chen Baoguo had been absent for two weeks. He Damei thought he should be back soon.
Wang Daqing came out from the backyard and said, "The college entrance examination in our county has been going on for the past two days, and the school gate is full of parents."
Wang Daqing took a plate of washed tomatoes and placed it in front of the two men.
He Damei said: "With so many people taking the college entrance examination, how many people can pass it? It's really too difficult."
Wang Daqing asked, "Your uncle is also taking the college entrance examination this year, right?"
"Yes, he studies so well, he will definitely pass the exam."
Wang Daqing chuckled and said, "I washed some tomatoes for you two, try them.
This is not from our restaurant, I brought it from my home."
Wang Daqing explained, and Tian Wenjun and He Damei couldn't help but laugh.
Tian Wenjun said: "Thank you."
Tian Wenjun took one and ate it slowly. Wang Daqing asked, "By the way, has Jiang Cuihua in your compound always lived with her brother?"
Tian Wenjun said: "Yes, she is helping her elder brother and sister-in-law take care of the children."
When Wang Daqing heard this, it seemed that what Jiang Cuihua said was true.
"She also said her man was dead, right?"
Tian Wenjun stopped eating tomatoes and looked at Wang Daqing.
It seems that Jiang Cuihua got along well with Wang Daqing and others in the restaurant, and she told them all these things.
However, this woman is too honest. Why does she say everything?
Before Tian Wenjun could say anything, He Damei said with a smile, "Old Wang, are you about to bloom? Are you attracted to Jiang Cuihua?"
Wang Daqing said seriously, "Nonsense, I'm just asking."
He Damei smiled even more happily.
Tian Wenjun looked at Wang Daqing for a second longer. She could tell that Wang Daqing liked He Damei.
However, Damei is married now, and Wang Daqing is not young anymore, so it is normal for them to want to get married.
In fact, it’s better for Wang Daqing to do this. Some windows don’t need to be broken.
If the secret is exposed, we will have no friends anymore.
He Damei said: "Lao Wang, you have to strike first, otherwise when she finds a partner, you won't have anything to do with her."
He Damei's words were heartbreaking to Wang Daqing. He suddenly felt that the tomatoes in his hand were no longer sweet.
Zhang Guilan, who worked in the office, heard the voices of several people talking, came out and said with a smile: "I think Damei is right. If you like her, then ask Wenjun to arrange a marriage for you two. If you two end up together, it will be great!"
Don’t you think so?
Tian Wenjun didn't say anything. He Damei smiled and said, "Sister Zhang, you are right. No matter what happens, you have to strike first."
After all, Wang Daqing is older. If he were a youngster, either his face or ears would turn red.
Wang Daqing simply said, “You women always create trouble when you open your mouths.
I'm just asking casually, you guys chat, I'll go back to chopping wood."
Wang Daqing slipped away first, and Tian Wenjun looked at Wang Daqing's back thoughtfully.
She couldn't help but wonder, are these two people suitable?
Wang Daqing squatted in the shade of the backyard, looking at the blue sky and white clouds above his head.
Is it useful to strike first?
It seems to be of no use.
Zhang Guilan smiled at Tian Wenjun and said, "Wenjun, you know what, these two people look really good together.
The people in Daqing are not bad. After all, he is in his thirties and almost forty. It seems unrealistic to introduce him to a virgin girl. Jiang Cuihua is actually fine.
What do you think? "
Tian Wenjun said: "Sister Zhang, this matter is really hard to say."
Zhang Guilan asked, "What's wrong? Does she have a boyfriend?"
"That's not the case."
"That's all right. I'll do some ideological work for Daqing later. You can also ask Jiang Cuihua. You know what, I have a pretty good impression of her."
Tian Wenjun said, "Sister Zhang, a forced melon is not sweet. I don't think Brother Daqing is interested. Let's not randomly match them up."
Zhang Guilan said: "That's hard to say, you can ask first."
Tian Wenjun didn't say anything. What she feared most was being a matchmaker. How did this happen to her?
Wait until she gets around to asking.
After the sun went down, when Tian Wenjun rode her bicycle to the gate of the compound, the frame in front of her bicycle was filled with a bunch of wild flowers, which she had picked on the way.
When she pushed her bicycle to the bottom of the compound building, she was suddenly hugged from behind. She looked back and saw Feng Xueyan with two ponytails, wearing a purple skirt and a pair of pink plastic sandals.
She tilted her little face up and smiled sweetly.
"Auntie, I'm back, did you miss me?"
I haven't seen her for more than four months. This little girl seems to have grown a lot taller, the baby fat on her face has disappeared a little, her hair has grown longer, and she looks taller than before. She looks more like a city girl.
Tian Wenjun reached out and rubbed her head: "Ah, my Xueyan is back."
"Yes, Auntie, I also left some fruit candies for you. Try them, they are so sweet."
Feng Xueyan peeled off the candy wrapper, grabbed the corner of Tian Wenjun's clothes with one hand, stood on tiptoes with difficulty, and pushed the candy to her mouth with all her strength.
"Auntie, lower your head and I'll feed you."
Tian Wenjun held the bicycle with one hand, bent down and was about to open her mouth.
Chen Jianguo appeared from nowhere, picked up Feng Xueyan from behind and held her in his arms.
This time, Tian Wenjun had to look up at her.
Chen Jianguo, who looked down on his own soldiers, smiled at Feng Xueyan and said, "Call me daddy."
Feng Xueyan giggled and called "Dad" in a baby voice.
Jiang Dahai, who was passing by, said, "You shameless bastard, just give birth to your own child."
Chen Jianguo raised his foot to kick Jiang Dahai, but Jiang Dahai dodged it. Feng Xueyan laughed even more happily.
She put the candy to Tian Wenjun's mouth again, and Tian Wenjun opened her mouth and ate it.
Of course, children's candy is sweet.
Chen Jianguo put Feng Xueyan down, and Feng Xueyan smiled and said, "Auntie, I'm going back first. I'll come to see you in the evening."
