When Song Zhi and the others heard this, they all felt heavy-hearted.
In addition to the physical pain that the ten-year movement brought to people, it also caused more psychological devastation.
If Song Zhi had not lived his life again and knew that the resumption of the college entrance examination was imminent, Rong Zhengqing and the others would probably never touch the textbooks again.
And Ran Qiu will also embark on a path of no return like in his previous life.
There are not many people in society who still have hope for the future like them.
Song Zhi clenched his fists, looked at Teacher Qian seriously, and said word by word, "I believe that day will come."
Teacher Qian was slightly stunned, his eyes were slightly red, but his eyes were clear and bright.
"I trust you."
These bold words greatly boosted morale, and during the following study period, everyone worked more seriously than before.
The impact of this learning attitude is that the number of wrong questions is reduced.
Rong Zhengqing looked at the new test paper he had just completed. He had only made a few mistakes in the fill-in-the-blank questions, and his face was full of disbelief.
“I only made a few mistakes?”
Teacher Qian nodded with a smile, "Yes, among the four of you, you have made the most progress. Keep up the good work, and you may be able to catch up with Song Zhi soon."
In response to her praise, Rong Zhengqing scratched his head embarrassedly, his ears slightly red.
"Teacher Qian, I just want to make progress. I can't even think about surpassing Song Zhi."
After all, her IQ is there. No matter how smart she is, it is only compared to ordinary people.
Nie Jinmei grinned, and her pretty features looked even more lively.
"I'm not like you. I just dare to think. Song Zhi, you have to keep working hard too. Maybe one day I'll surpass you."
Song Zhi curled up the corners of his lips and raised his chin with some pride.
"Then I'll wait for you."
The happy and fulfilling study time is always short, and there is only a trace of light in the sky outside shining on the earth.
The four of them said goodbye to Teacher Qian downstairs, holding their books.
"Hey, Captain Tang is here." The sharp-eyed Nie Jinmei was the first to notice Tang Junhe standing at the corner and nudged Song Zhi with her elbow.
Song Zhi looked in the direction she pointed and saw Tang Junhe standing not far away carrying a large package.
Looking into her eyes, he walked over with his long legs.
"Is get out of class over?"
Song Zhi nodded, "What are you doing here?"
"Waiting for you." Tang Junhe took the book from her hand naturally and nodded to Nie Jinmei and the others.
"It's getting dark and the road is hard to walk on. She's staying at my place tonight. I'll arrange for someone to take you back."
Rong Zhengqing subconsciously glanced at Ran Qiu's expression and waved his hand to refuse, "No need to trouble the other comrades, we know the way back, and Song Zhi told us a small road back to the village, which is very quick."
Hearing this, Tang Junhe's eyebrows twitched strangely.
The path...
He quickly glanced at Song Zhi, then looked away a little awkwardly, cleared his throat and said, "Okay, I'll send someone to pick you up for class tomorrow."
This time Rong Zhengqing didn't refuse and nodded with a smile, "Thank you for troubling Captain Tang."
Song Zhi was not very resistant to staying overnight again because she saw the package in Tang Junhe's hand.
Although she has space and is not short of supplies, what if this was sent by her father to Tang Junhe to help pass it on?
"Song Zhi, let's go back then." Nie Jinmei said and waved at her.
"Okay, be careful on the road then."
It was the same process as last time. Song Zhi sent the three of them to the camp gate, told them to be careful on the road, and then stood there watching their backs...
She inexplicably felt that Ran Qiu seemed unhappy tonight.
This was indeed the case. Not long after leaving the camp gate, Ran Qiu's mood became depressed again.
He lowered his head, his shoulders slumped slightly, and his facial expression was very calm, but everyone could see from the crowd that he felt powerless from the bottom of his heart.
Nie Jinmei and Rong Zhengqing walked side by side beside him, looking at his profile in silence.
Although Ran Qiu usually lives a hard life, his back is always straight, with a sense of pride that comes from his bones.
But now he seemed to be crushed by reality.
Nie Jinmei didn't know what to say. Tang Junhe's feelings for Song Zhi were too obvious.
He did it for her own good, so he let them benefit as well. If it weren't for Captain Tang, they would definitely not have met such a good teacher.
So they can't take advantage of others and then say bad things about them, and feelings are their own business, no matter how many comforting words you say, it will be useless.
As someone who has had the same experience, Rong Zhengqing can fully understand Ran Qiu's helplessness at this moment.
The three of them walked back to the village along the small road in silence, and it only took half the time.
When I got home, it was almost dark.
Dabao, Erbao and Sanya were playing "Eagle Catches Chicken" in the yard, and their giggling made people smile.
Seeing them coming back, the three little ones stopped playing games and ran over to greet them.
"Brother Qiu, you are finally back. San Ya missed you so much."
"Brother Qiu, Erbao misses you too."
"Dabao also thought about it..."
The three little rascals all raised their heads in unison, waiting expectantly for him to respond first.
But Ran Qiu just smiled gently, ruffled their hair, put down his things and went into the kitchen to cook.
Rong Zhengqing pulled Nie Jinmei and said, "Let's go help Ran Qiu. Let's finish eating and rest early."
The three little ones stood in a row, looking at each other.
Dabao frowned, looking like a little adult, "I think Brother Qiu might be in a bad mood."
San Ya said aggrievedly, "I feel the same way. Brother Qiu didn't even hug me."
"I know, Brother Qiu must be too tired from studying. We should do some work for him so that he can rest early."
Erbao suggested seriously, "I think we should just sweep the yard. Sanya, have you locked up the chickens?"
"Then I'll go check..."
"I'll get the broom..."
The three little ones immediately took action. Ran Qiu took Nie Jinmei and the others to cook dinner in the kitchen, while the three little ones were busy outside.
When it was time for dinner, Ran Qiu was greeted by three little cats.
He laughed helplessly and said, "It's windy today. Even if you sweep the floor, it will still get dirty."
"Ah..." The three little ones looked at the clean yard with regret.
"But you deserve praise for taking the initiative to help me. I'm very happy. I'll treat you to some candy, but I can only give it to you tomorrow."
Ran Qiu patiently instructed: "Dabao, take good care of your younger brothers and sisters. Now take them to wash their hands and prepare for dinner."
The three little ones walked out obediently.
Nie Jinmei and Rong Zhengqing exchanged a glance. With the three little ones interrupting him like this, Ran Qiu probably wouldn't think about that anymore...
Ran Qiu had something on his mind and didn't feel like making complicated dishes. He just fried some spicy and sour cabbage and some scrambled eggs with mushrooms and was done with it.
But thanks to his good cooking skills, Nie Jinmei and Rong Zhengqing, who had been thinking all day, still ate too much.
