Li Bowen brought them to a small restaurant they had never been to before. After entering the restaurant, the first thing they saw was a narrow staircase. Going up to the second floor was where they would eat.

This place is far from the school, and it's not lunch time, so the room seems a bit deserted.

After sitting down, they simply ordered a few dishes and sat down to chat.

Li Bowen asked Ye Changsheng: "What volunteers did you apply for? Were you accepted?"

Ye Changsheng: "I didn't expect that I would do so well in the exam. My first choice was the National Defense University in Harbin. The other two choices were farther from home, but the admission scores were not as high as mine."

Li Bowen smiled: "Your score is a bit dangerous. I remember that the admission score of this school in our province last year was 701 points. However, the math questions in our province this year are very difficult, and the average math score is also the lowest in history. You still have hope."

Fortunately, I didn’t take the college entrance examination, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to get into a key university.”

Li Bowen is very knowledgeable about this aspect and usually puts a lot of effort into it.

놛 asked Ye Xiaoxiao again.

"I only filled out one application, which was Jinghua University."

Li Bowen admired the other party's confident look.

Of course, what I admire more is the other party's strength.

"Your grades are so good, our school is really lucky."

Li Bowen heard everything from Wang Ying. It seemed that her desk mate just listened casually during class every day.

Moreover, the teaching resources in Class 1 were the worst in the whole grade. Not only did the other party's grades not decline, but they also helped Wang Ying improve.

Li Bowen had to admit that sometimes the academic genius and the academic master were on the same level.

Ye Xiaoxiao just smiled. She had picked up the trap herself and gained her life again.

After the dishes were served, everyone ate and chatted, and by the end, there was really no sadness in leaving.

Finally, Wang Ying hugged Ye Xiaoxiao.

"If you...return to Baichuan, you must come to see me."

Ye Xiaoxiao hugged back: "Of course."

When Ye Xiaoxiao and Ye Changsheng returned home, Ye Changyuan and Zhang Xiaoni were already waiting at the door.

Zhang Xiaoni: "I thought you were staying at your relatives' house this semester, but it turns out you are renting a house outside."

Ye Xiaoxiao opened the door and said, "It has expired. I will check out tomorrow."

Zhang 괗尼 also stayed here with Ye Xiaoxiao and the others for one night, waiting to go back to Baishi Village together tomorrow.

Anyway, her grades are so bad, maybe she can only get married in the future. Looking at her grades today, she had no hope for herself, and now she is completely desperate.

Before going to bed at night, Zhang Xiaoni expressed her thoughts.

Ye Xiaoxiao advised her: "There are opportunities everywhere now. It's better for you to learn a skill than to wait at home to get married."

Zhang Xiaoni: "But I don't know how to do anything. I don't even have the qualifications to work in a factory."

Today's workers have stable jobs and need city hukou.

Ye Xiaoxiao: "Why don't you open your own shop? There are so many self-employed people nowadays. You can learn how to be a hairdresser."

Zhang Xiaoni had never thought of taking this path before.

Now I feel like she really needs to learn a skill, otherwise she won’t be good at growing vegetables or looking good, which means she won’t be good at anything.

Zhang Xiaoni tossed and turned all night, not knowing what she had figured out. The next day she woke up with dark circles under her eyes.

Ye Xiaoxiao was talking to Aunt Sun who lived next door. It was summer vacation at school and the college entrance examination results were out, so the family decided to go back to their hometown and stay for a few days.

Sun Yuzhen held Ye Xiaoxiao's hand and said, "I never thought that our compound would have a top scholar."

Ye Xiaoxiao: "Thank you Aunt Sun for taking care of me during this time."

This time it was Sun Yuzhen's turn to feel embarrassed. She was only paid to do the job, which was not really a favor.

Now I feel a little regretful for taking the money. If I can maintain a good relationship with the top scholar, she will also have face.

However, Ye Xiaoxiao didn't care about these things. If Sun Yuzhen refused to take the money, she would not take advantage of others.

Ye Xiaoxiao checked out of the house, and there were still some things left at home, so she packed them all up and took them away.

The bed was made by my brother-in-law, and it was of very good quality. Ye Mei said she didn't want it, so we left it to the landlord.

As soon as the door was locked, Ye Xiaoxiao bid farewell to this house completely.

…

The admission notice came out very quickly, especially for a top scorer like Ye Xiaoxiao. The admissions office of Jinghua University directly called the president's office.

Yu Deshui immediately expressed on behalf of Ye Xiaoxiao that she was willing to study in Beijing.

The situation at Ye Changsheng's place was more complicated, because it was a military academy, and they not only investigated academic performance, but also family background.

Fortunately, the Ye family has a good family background.

Three generations of his family have served in the military, and none of his relatives have committed adultery or crimes, so he doesn't have to worry about political review.

Ye Xiaoxiao and Ye Changsheng's admission letters were delivered together, and their school start times were similar.

The moment Ye Changsheng received the notice, he was a little afraid to open it.

I'm afraid this is not the school I want to go to.

Ye Xiaoxiao was getting anxious watching from the side.

"Fourth brother, please open it and take a look."

Ye Changsheng tore it open directly, and inside was the notification letter he had been dreaming of.

Ye Changsheng's hands were shaking slightly.

"Ah!!! Brother Sheng, you passed the exam!"

Ye Changyuan was happier than anyone else and ran around holding the notice.

Miao Cuifang: "Why are you running? Show me."

There was no suspense on Ye Xiaoxiao's admission letter, the four words "Jinghua University" shone brightly.

The whole family held the two notices in their hands and were reluctant to put them down.

"Okay, okay, our Ye family has admitted two universities at once."

Even Ye Jianguo, who was usually serious, smiled.

The old man in the family, Ye Baishun, wanted to let the whole village see this honor.

"We should make a copy of this notice and stick it on our wall."

Grandma Zhang Cuiyun also echoed, "Post it on our family tree."

Ye Xiaoxiao did not join in the heated discussion among the elders. After all, this was a happy event.

Ye Xiaoxiao, Ye Changsheng and Ye Changyuan were sitting in the yard talking.

"I decided to report in two days."

Ye Changyuan suddenly said.

Ye Xiaoxiao: "I didn't read Brother Yuan's letter of introduction. Which province is it from?"

Ye Changyuan: "It's Jinhai City, which is very close to the capital."

Ye Xiaoxiao was a little surprised, "It can't be the navy."

Marine training is very hard.

But it's the same for all branches of the military. Jinhai City has a good environment, so it's best for Ye Changyuan to go there.

Ye Changyuan patted his head and said, "Lu Zhi asked me to go there to adapt for a while. If it doesn't work, I will try another place. But I will definitely cherish this opportunity and stick to it no matter how hard it is."

Ye Xiaoxiao: "As long as you don't get seasick, Brother Yuan, it will be fine."

If seasickness is really severe, it is a psychological problem and cannot be overcome.

Ye Changyuan: "When I was a kid, I went fishing on the river with my dad. I don't get seasick."

Ye Xiaoxiao: "Uncle also knows how to fish?"

Ye Changsheng: "My uncle used to be a professional fisherman. When I was a kid, we had fish every month. But it was too far from home. When my grandparents got older, my uncle returned to the village."

Ye Xiaoxiao felt that she still knew too little about this family and was unclear about many things.
