“No, brother, I’m just happy.” Shen Chu Ning said, wiping away tears.
She was indeed happy.
Their family's life was getting better and better as she dreamed. If she and her elder brother could go to college, then their life would not be too bad in the future.
Shen Zhengxu breathed a sigh of relief. When he thought that both he and his younger sister were on the list, he was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes.
The phone bill was very expensive. Shen Qingsong felt bad about the bill, but also wanted to say a few more words to his daughter.
He quickly asked Shen Zhengxu to give him the phone, and he quickly asked a bunch of questions about whether Shen Chuning was okay, whether Xiao Ruirui was okay, and whether his family was okay.
Of course Shen Chu Ning agreed to everything, and finally talked about the New Year.
"Dad, we won't go back for the New Year this year."
Before, when she was thinking that she couldn't go back and could only buy some New Year gifts and send them back, she didn't think it was a big deal.
Now when she talked about it with her father and elder brother, she felt a little depressed and her nose was a little sour.
This is the first time she has spent the New Year so far away from home.
During the Chinese New Year last year, although she had already married Zhou Yubai, their two families lived in the same village and it only took less than half an hour to walk back home.
Now we are so far away that it takes five days to go back by train. It will take another five days to come back after the New Year, so it will be delayed for ten days on the road.
Only then did Shen Chuning truly feel that it would not be easy for her to go home in the future.
Shen Qingsong hasn't seen his daughter for a long time. Now he knows that he can't see her even during the New Year, and he feels very bad.
But he could also feel his daughter's low mood through the phone line and hurried to comfort her.
But before he could speak, he heard Shen Chuning sniffing over there and said in a muffled voice: "Dad, I miss you."
Shen Qingsong suddenly felt a pang in his heart and his eyes turned red.
But before he could say anything to his daughter, a hurried figure ran into the brigade office.
"Uncle Chen, are you guys calling Ning Ning? It's a good opportunity for me to take advantage of you and talk to Ning Ning."
As Lu Qiaoqing spoke, she could not wait to snatch the phone from Shen Qingsong's hand, and shouted excitedly to the other end of the phone with a voice full of joy: "Ningning, I'm in, I'm in!"
Shen Chuning was just immersed in the depressed mood of not being able to go back home for the New Year.
Now, after being yelled at by Lu Qiaoqing, all the depressed mood was gone.
Lu Qiaoqing was like a loud speaker, talking to her about the matters concerning the educated youth camp on the other end.
This time, all the staff members of their educated youth center signed up for the college entrance examination.
But in the end, she was the only one on the physical examination list.
The worst one was Wang Yumeng.
Shortly after registering for the college entrance examination, the county education bureau received a real-name report against Wang Yumeng from the capital.
After the staff came to the village to investigate, they found that the contents of the report were basically true, and directly cancelled Wang Yumeng's qualification to take the college entrance examination.
And that letter of complaint was sent by Chen Ziyun.
When Lu Qiaoqing talked about this, she felt happy. Chen Ziyun and Wang Yumeng were really biting each other.
Finally, Shen Chuning asked Shen Qingsong to help her tell the teacher the good news that she had passed the physical examination.
Due to geographical conditions, the transportation and communications of Xiaohe Village Brigade are much more backward than those of Cihang Village Brigade.
The Xiaohe Village Brigade did not have its own telephone, so Shen Chuning could not call Peng Kaiyuan. If Peng Kaiyuan wanted to call her, he had to go to the commune.
Although Qingyuan County is located in the southwest and is not as cold as Liaobei City, Peng Kaiyuan is old after all, and it is not easy for him to walk such a long mountain road to the commune to call her.
Feeling sorry for the phone bill, neither the Shen family father and son nor Lu Qiaoqing said anything more to Shen Chuning. They hung up the phone after saying goodbye.
"Uncle Shen, this is my phone bill just now, take it."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Qiaoqing quickly took out two dollars and gave it to Shen Qingsong.
Shen Qingsong quickly refused, "My daughter, I can't accept your uncle's money. You are talking to our Ningning, there is no reason for us to ask you to pay for the phone call."
Shen Qingsong insisted on not accepting it, and Lu Qiaoqing did not force him.
She thought that after she told her family the good news, they would definitely send her some good things. Then she could take some to the Shen family, which would offset the phone bill.
The news that Shen Chu Ning was on the medical examination list quickly spread in the village.
For a while, although she was not in her hometown, her myth was being spread everywhere in her hometown.
Especially for this college entrance examination, two people from Cihang Village Brigade, Shen Zhengxu and Lu Qiaoqing, were included in the physical examination list, which was the first in the surrounding villages.
As soon as the physical examination list came out, the team had already started to put up banners to celebrate for Shen Zhengxu and Lu Qiaoqing, and now there was another Shen Chuning.
In one family, two brothers and sisters were put on the physical examination list. The Shen family's deeds caused a sensation in the surrounding area, and the leaders paid more attention to it.
In the next few days, everyone from the brigade cadres to the commune cadres to the town committee came to express their concern.
Shen Qingsong had never seen so many officials in his life. While he was excited, he was still a little scared.
Fortunately, Shen Qingfeng was there, and the reception for leaders at all levels was handled very decently.
In addition to leaders at all levels who came to express their concern, Shen Fengxia also came to the door carrying large and small bags.
