Cen Zihu winked at his two younger brothers, and the three of them immediately held Cen Zixiang down. Chen Ye went up and started tickling him. Cen Zixiang had a lot of ticklish spots, and he couldn't stop laughing.
Adults are happy to see children playing and fighting. It is good for family members to be close to each other. This is much better than having brothers and sisters cross-eyed all day long.
The song ended and the crowd dispersed. Even the lively atmosphere had its end. After seeing off my eldest uncle and second uncle, and then my adoptive father and four brothers, this bustling courtyard suddenly became quiet, making people feel a little melancholy for a moment.
It was late at night and Chen Ye couldn't sleep, so she got up and sat by the window on the second floor, looking up at the moon in the sky. She felt like she had just woken up from a dream, mainly because she was too happy, so happy that it seemed unreal.
She had never thought that the whole family could be so harmonious, without quarrels or petty calculations, everything was so natural, harmonious and happy that she felt like she wanted to indulge in it and not want to wake up.
She felt somewhat fortunate to have such a relative who did not care about personal gain, would not exchange with her on an equal footing, was only concerned about your own good, and could tolerate all your shortcomings.
It would be great if this kind of family affection could last forever, but she knew that was impossible. People are always changing. What is good now will change after having new children. She can only hope that this kind of harmony can last as long as possible.
This should be the first time in her life that she suffered from insomnia. She was so happy that she dared not close her eyes, for fear that if she closed her eyes and opened them again, she would find that everything was just a dream after all.
Chen Ye smiled and shook her head. When did she start to be so sentimental? Didn't she warn herself not to indulge herself because the consequences of wrong belief were not something she could bear.
She was afraid that when she lost everything, she would completely let the devil in her heart break out, and then she would no longer be herself.
A long sigh was heard in the darkness, and a slender figure gradually walked out of the soft moonlight, and the whole figure gradually disappeared into the darkness.
…
"Little sister, what did you say? Say it again?"
Cen Zixiang's incredulous voice came from the receiver. Chen Ye quickly moved the receiver farther away, almost deafening her ears.
"Hey, hey, hey, little sister, are you still listening?"
“Hey, hey, hey…”
"Ahem, well, fourth brother, please keep your voice down. I can hear you. Didn't you expect this? Why are you so surprised?" Didn't my fourth brother expect this?
"No, little sister, how can I not be surprised? I remember the news was announced in October. How come it's several months earlier?"
Chen Ye glanced at the empty office. Fortunately, Uncle Qi was a very particular person. She came over to call Uncle Qi and he made an excuse to go out. Otherwise, if someone heard what she said, they would think too much about it.
"Ahem, what are you talking about, Fourth Brother? Isn't this the time every year when high school sophomores graduate? Wouldn't it be perfect to resume the college entrance exams now?"
If she wasn't on the phone, she would definitely say, "Are you stupid? We are not from the same world, and there is something wrong."
In fact, her grandfather had already revealed this news to them, but it had never been confirmed and they had never told anyone else. This morning, after listening to the radio, she quickly called her fourth brother.
You know, the villagers don't have the habit of listening to the radio. If she didn't tell them, they wouldn't know when the news would come out. Fortunately, the village installed telephones last year, otherwise she would have no place to notify them even if she wanted to.
Cen Zixiang finally came to his senses and looked around quickly. Fortunately, the captain and the others were not there when he came to call, otherwise he didn't know how much they would think after hearing what he said.
But he was still a little confused. He felt that his memory was not that bad. The college entrance examination should have been announced in October, and there was only half a year between the first and second college entrance examinations.
Could it be that someone has changed the current situation and prompted the college entrance examination to be moved forward by several months?
"Well, sister, is this news confirmed?"
Chen Ye rolled his eyes and said, "Are you sure I can call you? I heard about it on the radio this morning. I think you guys will get the notification too, just a little later."
Cen Zixiang was grinning so hard that he looked silly. He used to be eager to graduate quickly so that he could go out and live a life of idleness and waiting for death, but now he can't wait to take the college entrance examination tomorrow so that he can return to the city he has longed for. Woo woo woo, his life has been difficult these years!
"Hahaha... By the way, little sister, when is the college entrance examination?"
Chen Ye...what an idiot.
"Registration should start in the next two days, July 15th. Don't forget to register, and be careful of others. Don't be stupid and get yourself into trouble."
Her fourth brother has some brains but not much. He tries to act covertly and sometimes he gets into trouble. This guy seemed quite smart when they first met, but why did he become dumber the longer he stayed in the countryside? Is it because the environment is too simple?
"Hehe, don't worry, your fourth brother is very smart."
Chen Ye rolled his eyes again and said, "Listen, listen, only a normal smart person can say this."
"Okay, the phone bill is expensive. You have review materials there too. Study hard and we can go to the same school."
"How about you just come over to the city so we can review together? Ask Gao Erge if he wants to come over with you?"
Since last year, the six grandparents in the cowshed have left one after another. There is no point for the two of them to stay in the village. They could have joined the army directly, but isn't there news that the college entrance examination will be resumed?
Both of them graduated from high school, and they can be considered cultural soldiers if they join the army directly, but their starting point is completely different from those who graduated from regular military academies.
We have waited for so many years, and one or two years won’t make a difference. After all, the two of them have made great contributions, so there will be no obstacles for them to enter at any time.
"Let's see. We can both review in the village. What do you think? Should we review directly here, or review while working?"
"I'll tell Uncle Qi later. I can't leave until they find the right person, but I don't think it will take long."
"Why don't you come back here to review after you quit? If you're tired, you can go for a walk in the mountains and change your mind."
Chen Ye had never really thought about this, but now that he thought about it, it seemed like a pretty good idea: "That's fine, let's talk about it after I quit my job. That's it, I have to hang up now."
"Okay, okay, let's get in touch later. Now, hang up. I need to tell everyone this good news right away."
Chen Ye put down the receiver with a smile on her face. She seemed calm, but in fact she was very happy. The resumption of the college entrance examination meant that reform and opening up would begin. In the future, she would no longer have to be cautious and hesitant in doing anything.
