Song Zhi noticed her expression and comforted her, "Don't think too much, we will all pass the exam."
Rong Zhengqing was still not very confident. When he looked up, he found that everyone was looking at him encouragingly.
Their gazes were like a warm current, making her whole body warm. She nodded heavily, feeling more confident in herself.
After the children had eaten, they ran to the yard to play.
Three little guys of the same age gathered together, playing some game, and their laughter filled the whole yard.
Song Zhi put down his chopsticks and quietly watched the three little ones playing outside. He turned his head to look at Ran Qiu beside him and asked, "Ran Qiu, have you thought about who will take care of the three of them when you go to college in the future?"
The three little ones are still very young, and it would be impossible for them to live alone if Ran Qiu is not at home.
"I plan to pay someone to help take care of it."
Ran Qiu thought for a moment before answering.
"Dabao and his friends will be eight or nine years old after the Chinese New Year, so they will have no problem taking care of themselves."
Although he said so, Song Zhi saw the sorrow that was about to overflow from his eyes and knew that he must be worried about them.
Even if he paid someone to take care of the three little ones, when he was not at home, no one would know what was happening to them, which was really unsettling.
"Are you willing to let me help you?"
Song Zhi looked at him and asked.
Ran Qiu looked back at her with a hesitant look, and his hands on his knees were slightly clenched.
It’s not that he didn’t trust her to help, but he didn’t want to trouble her.
She always helped with so many things, and he owed her so much that he could never repay her in this lifetime.
Song Zhi knew Ran Qiu's personality and didn't care about his expression, so he continued speaking.
"My father's factory has a full-time primary school for employees. I can find a way to use my connections to get Dabao and the other two to attend the staff primary school."
Tsinghua University is in Beijing. Ran Qiu can take them to Beijing when the time comes and visit them often in his spare time, so that the three little ones will not stay in Anyang Village and become left-behind children.
She was afraid that Ran Qiu would be worried, so she added another sentence.
"I studied there when I was a child. The environment and teaching quality are both very good."
Ran Qiu did not agree.
He looked at Song Zhi, who was always thinking about them, and just smiled and said, "Let's talk about it later."
This means a polite decline.
Nie Jinmei and Rong Zhengqing were listening nearby and looked at Ran Qiu in surprise.
In their opinion, this is much better than hiring someone to look after the three little ones.
Song Zhi was not surprised.
She knew Ran Qiu's character well. He would not ask for help easily unless it was absolutely necessary.
She didn't force it, but just said, "Think about it again. If you've made up your mind, tell me directly and I'll find a way to arrange it."
As she spoke, she looked at the three little ones who were laughing and playing in the yard and added another sentence.
"It's definitely better for them to go to the city to study than to stay in the village."
Ran Qiu naturally understood this principle, but he still did not give in.
If he needs her help for everything, wouldn't that make him even less worthy of her?
But on the other hand, it is the future of the three little ones. Being able to go to school in the city is also a rare opportunity for them.
For a moment, he was extremely conflicted.
More than half a month after the exam, Song Anshan suddenly sent a telegram.
"Zhizhi, are you and Zizi doing well lately? Several teachers from the admissions office have come to Changli recently to ask what major you plan to apply for. If you have a favorite major, please reply quickly and you can be admitted early."
After reading the telegram, Song Zhi's face was full of joy. Since someone from the admissions office went to the factory to contact Song Anshan, it proved that her application to Tsinghua University should be approved.
After she returned, she told Nie Jinmei and the others the news, and they were all happy for Song Zhi.
"Great! It seems like you did very well in the exam, Zhizhi."
But after Song Zhi got the news, they became even more nervous and were all looking forward to waiting for his news.
Soon, there was feedback from Nie Jinmei and Rong Zhengqing's families.
Within two days, they all received telegrams from home one after another.
"My parents asked me to go home as soon as possible. They said that the admissions officers from various universities came to my house and asked me which major I planned to apply for!"
Nie Jinmei excitedly shared the news with everyone.
Rong Zhengqing just happened to come back from outside and immediately agreed happily, "Me too."
When Song Zhi heard their good news, she was sincerely happy for them.
"Looks like we all need to go home," she said.
"Then let's go together and ask the captain for leave."
Rong Zhengqing's face flushed with excitement, and his fingers were shaking with excitement.
If Song Zhi had not dragged them to take the college entrance examination together and led them in reviewing, she would never have believed that there would be a day when she would be able to change her destiny through knowledge.
After graduating from university, the road will be wider.
No matter what she chooses to do in the future, she will definitely achieve something, and she won't have to continue to be an educated youth in Dongyang Village every day and waste her best years.
The three of them went to find Long Deshou together. After they explained the reason, Long Deshou was very surprised.
"Is what you said true?"
He looked at the three of them in disbelief, the flesh on his face trembling with emotion.
If there were really three college students in the brigade he managed, it would be responding to the call of the country and an extremely glorious thing.
Not to mention that according to what they said, since someone from the admissions office came to their door, it proved that their grades must be excellent.
I'm afraid that the graduates are still college students from famous universities.
When he thought of this, Long Deshou's face flushed.
There are several college students from prestigious universities on his team, and he also benefits from it.
"Of course it's true. We just received a telegram from home, so we wanted to ask for leave and go back to discuss it with our family."
Song Zhi and the others nodded.
Long Deshou agreed without hesitation.
When seeing them off, he also gave them some thoughtful advice.
"Be careful on your way home!"
After getting the leave application, they returned home and began to pack their things.
Song Zhi found a big box and put all his daily necessities in it. When he saw Xiao Qingbai's things, Song Zhi began to hesitate.
After returning, he will definitely have to confront his stepmother Lin Wanru. It is inconvenient and unsafe to take Xiao Qingbai with him, but Song Zhi is also worried about leaving him behind.
She was suddenly caught in a dilemma.
But she had another reason to go home. She wanted to go back and discuss the matter of choosing a major with Song Anshan.
Although Song Zhi has decided to apply for economics, economics is still a niche subject and there are only a few applicants nationwide.
She talked about the role of economics, and Nie Jinmei and the others believed her vision, but Song Anshan couldn't understand it.
