On the way home, Sun Ye became happier and happier. The college entrance examination would be resumed, and his elder brother happened to be in the second year of high school, in the graduating class, and would graduate almost immediately next June.
The teacher did not tell me the specific time for the resumption of the college entrance examination, but it must be soon, otherwise the teacher would not have been in such a hurry to let her take the graduation certificate exam.
He couldn't help but smile and ran all the way back home.
When he returned home, the house was silent. Sun Ye slapped his head and was so happy that he was confused. Everyone in the family had gone to work, so there was no one at home.
After Sun Ye closed the gate and made sure that no one could see her anymore, she covered her mouth with her hands and roared silently, but she still couldn't vent her inner excitement. She couldn't help but spin in circles, and not satisfied yet, she jumped a few times and danced.
I have never experienced such excitement before. The thrill spread from my hair all the way to my toes, like an electric current running through my body. My eardrums are bulging and my whole body is trembling. I just want to stay in this moment forever.
Sun Ye walked lightly to the room and opened her cabinet. There were several books inside, all given to her by Teacher Liu.
I picked up a book, opened the window, let the light from outside in, and tried to calm my excited mood. I couldn't concentrate on reading any book in this mood.
Really, as she thought, the words were still those words, passing by her eyes but not her heart. She puffed up her cheeks, exhaled deeply, and let out a breath to relax, which was a little comfort.
Sun Ye knew that he could not accomplish anything at this moment, so he closed the book, placed his hands on the table, closed his eyes, and silently recited Jingling Sen's meditation technique after a long absence.
Fifteen minutes later, Sun Ye slowly opened his eyes with trembling eyelashes, and there was no trace of excitement on his face.
Time seemed to pass very quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already morning. Soon, Sun Ma and the others would be off work for lunch.
I closed my sore eyes, got up and went to my private plot to pick some green peppers and cucumbers. The vegetables in the plot were crowded together and looked very fresh.
She still knows how to cook. As for the vegetables, she just washes and cuts them. She doesn't want to waste food, and she doesn't want to poison everyone's taste buds.
When Mr. and Mrs. Sun came back and saw Sun Ye at home, they didn't feel anything unusual. After all, Sun Ye was the first to come back at noon every day.
After dinner, Sun Ye helped his mother clean up the dishes before telling her the bombshell news he had learned in the morning. Sun Ye was sure that if he had told his mother and the others as soon as they came back, they would not have to eat.
"Dad, Mom, the teacher said the college entrance examination will be resumed."
A calm voice without any emotion was heard, just like when someone said they had eaten.
But Sun's mother almost couldn't hold the bowl steady, and it fell straight out of her hands. Her mouth was so wide open that an egg could fit in it.
Fortunately, Sun Ye was prepared. He was quick-eyed and quick-handed and caught the bowl that fell from the air steadily, saving the bowl from being shattered.
"Ye Zi, what did you just say? Mom didn't hear clearly."
Mother Sun's lips trembled and her voice shook as she spoke. Sun Ye could understand this very well. She was like this when she first heard the teacher say that. She even walked with her hands and feet trembling when she went home.
Dad Sun wasn't in a much better condition. He just sat there blankly, not moving.
Sun Ye then raised his voice and repeated: "The college entrance examination will be resumed!"
"Recover well, recover well."
That was all Sun Ma could say. Sun Ye took the chopsticks from Sun Ma's hand and went to wash them first. This would be the time for Sun Ma and the others.
"Ye Zi, does this mean that the boss can take the college entrance examination?"
"Well, big brother can take the college entrance examination."
Some time ago, everyone in the Sun family was worried about Sun Sen's future. Not to mention whether the eldest brother was happy about asking a high school student to farm, even Sun's mother and father felt very uncomfortable. Farming was too degrading to the eldest brother. They didn't train the high school student to farm like themselves.
But I didn't know the way around the city, and I was so worried that I couldn't sleep for several nights.
If you can pass the college entrance examination, everything will be solved. It is easier for college students to find a stable job than high school students, and they are guaranteed to be assigned a job. As long as you pass the exam, you really don’t have to worry about anything.
"Ye Zi, when will the college entrance examination be held?"
"Well, it should be soon. The teacher didn't say, so I guess it won't be more than three years at the longest."
"It'll take another three years..."
"Mom, we've been here for so many years, are you still afraid of three years? Maybe it won't take three years."
"Then I have to go tell the eldest brother to study hard and stop messing around."
Sun's mother said that wind would turn into rain, wiped her hands on the hem of her clothes, and was about to walk towards the town.
"Mom, don't worry. My eldest brother has always been steady and reliable, and he's very studious. You can just let him know when he comes home for the holidays or goes to the market."
“…”
"That's right, just sit down and listen to what Ye Zi has to say."
"Mom, I want to take the college entrance examination too."
"You? College entrance exam. It's not that Mom doesn't trust you, but Ye Zi, you've only just graduated from elementary school. You haven't even finished junior high or high school. How can they let you take the college entrance exam?"
"Ye Zi, if you want to continue your studies, then when school starts in September, let's take the junior high school admission notice to the town and see if they'll accept you."
"Mom, Dad, don't worry. The teacher said he would help me find a way to get my junior high and high school diplomas, and then I can take the college entrance exam."
"Really? How can we thank Professor Liu? We have nothing at home..."
Sun Ye fell silent after hearing this. She really owed her teacher a lot and had no way to repay him.
"How about we go to the old house and ask Mom. She'll probably know." Seeing that Mom was indeed distressed, Dad Sun couldn't help but suggest.
"Everything is up to the Queen, can't we make our own decisions?"
After being frustrated, Mr. Sun stopped talking and just muttered to himself that what he said was not wrong, why was he so angry.
"Ye Zi, if you want to take the graduation exam, then you will..."
"Don't worry, Mom. I know most of the knowledge in junior high school."
Speaking of this, Sun Ye can guarantee it. Over the past few years, through the history recorded in books, she has probably understood many things, and integrated them with what she learned in the Elf Forest. As long as it is not particularly tricky, she can handle it with ease.
"leaf…"
Mother Sun touched Sun Ye's hair with a complicated expression on her face. She owed Ye a lot.
"Oh, Mom, don't spread the news about the college entrance exam so carelessly. The teacher said that the documents haven't been sent out yet, so anything is possible."
"Huh? Oh."
"Does that mean there's a possibility of not taking the college entrance exam?"
Sun Ye nodded. It was indeed possible, but Sun Ye also understood that the possibility was very small. It was indeed time for dawn.
………
That day, the three members of the Sun family were having dinner. The moonlight was bright outside, and a layer of white gauze was floating in the air, so they could see the situation on the road clearly.
There was a knock on the courtyard door. The three of them looked up from their bowls and looked at each other. Why were there people coming at this time? The dinner time was a little late today. Normally, there would be a cool breeze in the courtyard at this time.
"It's Professor Liu, come in quickly!"
Sun's father's voice was heard outside. Sun's mother and Sun Ye looked at each other, as if they had sensed something. They quickly put down their bowls and chopsticks and walked out of the main room.
"teacher."
"Professor Liu is here."
"Ye Zi, go pour Professor Liu a bowl of boiled water, and bring in the peaches hanging above the water tank."
After hearing this, Sun Ye immediately went to the kitchen to pour water and get peaches and put them on the table. As for the food on the table, Sun's mother pushed it to a corner.
Professor Liu didn't beat around the bush and directly stated what the Sun family of three wanted to know most:
"Ye Zi, come with me to town tomorrow morning. I've already communicated with the principals of the junior high and high schools. Ye Zi will take the exam as soon as she gets there. If she passes the junior high school exam, she'll take the high school exam. If she fails, then what..."
Everyone present understood what Professor Liu had left unsaid. If you can't even pass the junior high school entrance exam, let alone the college entrance exam, don't waste your time and effort if you can't pass.
"Of course, I believe Ye Zi can definitely pass the exam."
"Professor Liu, you see, it really troubles you so much, running around everywhere for Ye Zi..."
"Yes, yes, thank you so much."
"Teacher, drink some water."
Only then did Sun Ye notice that there was dust and dirt on the cuffs of Professor Liu's shoes and trousers. Thinking about how the teacher usually dressed neatly and cleanly, he realized that he might have just returned from town.
Seeing that Professor Liu drank the whole bowl in one gulp, he must be thirsty, so Sun Ye poured him another bowl and he drank it all.
"No need to pour it, these are enough. I came here just to inform you, Ye Zi, sleep well tonight and behave well tomorrow."
"I know, teacher, I will try my best."
Sun Ye replied in a deep voice, if she didn't study hard, how could she be worthy of her teacher who worked all night for her, and how could she be worthy of her parents? She would not let them down.
Sun Ye secretly clenched her fists and decided to give it her all tomorrow.
"Okay, then you guys eat first, I'll go back."
"Professor Liu, don't be in such a hurry to leave. If you don't mind, please have a meal with us."
"No, no, I ate in town. I'm leaving now."
"Wait a minute, Professor Liu. Take these peaches home and check your stomach if you get hungry tonight."
Mother Sun picked up the peaches on the table and quickly went to the kitchen to get a basket. She then ran to the cabinet in the room and took out almost two pounds of bacon and put it all in the basket.
"What's the point? I'll just take a few peaches. As for the meat, I'll leave it for Ye Zi and the others to eat."
Professor Liu realized that the basket was a bit heavy when he picked it up. He looked carefully and saw the meat lying safely at the bottom.
"Professor, we're so grateful for your help, Ye Zi. We wouldn't be able to rest easy if we didn't do something. It's just some meat, and we don't have much good stuff. We thought this meat would be good for us, so you could ask Grandma Lin and the others to stir-fry it from time to time to add some flavor."
Even so, Professor Liu accepted the basket, which represented the Sun family's full sincerity.
Sun Ye went to bed early this time, but he couldn't fall asleep because he was thinking about tomorrow's affairs, so he had to force himself to sleep.
The next day, Sun Ye was full of energy. Although he didn't sleep much last night, at least he got some sleep.
Sun's mom and dad had two big dark circles under their eyes. They were relieved to see that Sun Ye was in good condition. They all sighed in their hearts: Ye Zi is still stable!
Sun's parents took a day off to accompany Sun Ye to the exam. The group of five rushed to the town early in the morning, and Lin Qianjin from the educated youth point also went with them.
In the office, Professor Liu exchanged greetings with the principal and took out a test paper for Sun Ye to take. As long as Sun Ye could score 80 points or above, he would be given a diploma.
Sun Ye sat alone in the office. She first quickly browsed through the exam content and breathed a sigh of relief. It was not difficult. She had learned it all.
