The people in the yard would occasionally glance at Sun Ye who was standing under the eaves, and then talk to Sun's father and mother.
There were many people talking at a high volume, and Sun Ye heard that most of the compliments were directed at her, with a bunch of good words being spoken of her. Sun Ye smiled, believing that her parents would take good care of her.
You could tell by the smiles on their faces. They talked with such gusto, yet others didn't seem to mind. They even leaned in to listen, afraid they'd miss a single detail and be outdone by another child. After all, this was Sun Ye's learning habit. Maybe if they followed his lead, their own child would catch on and become a high school student.
In such a great event that brings honor to the family, an old farmer can also be the Wenquxing!
It was already dark when the crowd slowly dispersed. I believe the team will have something to say tomorrow.
Now, only a few branches of the Sun family were left in the courtyard. Old Mrs. Sun said, "Everyone has learned what they need to know. Go home. Your father and I will stay at the third brother's house for one night."
"Okay, then we'll go first."
Finally, there were no people around, and Sun Ye walked over from under the eaves, picked up a broom by the wall, and swept away the dirt and dust in the yard.
After showing off her daughter, Grandma Sun went back to her room, changed into her normal clothes, and prepared dinner.
This time, Sun Ye can't even help with the assisting work. In the words of Old Mrs. Sun, these hands are for writing, and they can't be wasted like this.
But just for this one day, she was told not to interfere. Things should continue as they should normally. It is not good to spoil her too much. It is not good to just stretch out your hand for clothes and open your mouth for food and clothing.
Sun Ye had no choice but to leave the kitchen and take a walk in the yard. It would be useless to ask her to read or practice calligraphy at this time. After a day of exams, she should relax her mind.
The evening breeze was particularly comfortable, caressing Sun Ye's cheeks. The clouds in the sky were gorgeous and their color changed from red to orange, reflecting the red in Sun Ye's eyes.
On the other side of the sky, the wind was light and the clouds were scattered, in clusters of various shapes, as soft as cotton.
The clouds on both sides split the sky into two halves, clearly separating them.
Sun Ye sat there, thinking of nothing, his mind flying up to the sky with the wind, soaring freely.
With a peaceful expression, the breeze blew up Sun Ye's black hair, making it swirl in the air. The sleeves of her clothes seemed to have turned into wide sleeves with exquisite embroidery, appearing and disappearing.
It seems like a moment, but also like a thousand years.
“It’s time to eat!”
The hustle and bustle of the world brought back his thoughts that had been wandering for a long time. Sun Ye blinked, stretched his weak body, and trotted into the house.
Tonight, Sun's mother actually took out the seaweed that had been stored for a long time and added an egg to it. Maybe more than that, the consistency should be about two levels, Sun Ye thought uncertainly.
"Today is a good day for our family, it's a pity that Sun Sen and Sun Lin are not at home..."
"Eat yours. They don't want to study. This is a critical moment."
When Sun's mother glanced at Sun's father who was looking disappointed, she knew that this man could not have a happy life.
"Grandma, are Brother Wen and Brother Wu planning to take the college entrance exam? Why aren't they at school?"
Sun Ye never saw his eldest cousin in junior high school, which shouldn't be the case.
"Oh, don't mention it. Your two cousins are just lazy in school and can't understand what the teacher says."
"Then your aunt got angry and said that if you couldn't concentrate on your studies, you should go home and farm as soon as possible. That way you could save some money and have more food."
"Look, the two brothers came back home for the second half of the semester and are working on the farm with the team."
"When did this happen? How come we don't know?"
Mother Sun asked, she really hadn't seen the two brothers when she went to the fields, and she thought they were studying.
"Just a few days ago, your eldest sister-in-law was too embarrassed to say that out of four brothers, only her son dropped out of school early, while the second wife was gritting her teeth and holding on. Sigh."
"Why are you talking about this? Today is Ye Zi's happy day. It's embarrassing to bring this up."
"Okay, eat your food."
After hearing this, Sun Ye didn't mention it anymore. He felt it was a pity for his cousins. They were all very smart when they were young, but how could they become stupid when they grew up? He couldn't understand it.
"Well, the third daughter-in-law's cooking is delicious. Her cooking skills have improved!"
Old man Sun put a piece of cabbage in the innermost part, nodded continuously, and wanted to change the subject. Although it was true that the mother-in-law was saying bad things, it was not something an old woman should say out loud.
"Master, if it tastes good, eat more. You can also pick a few plants from the fields when you go back tomorrow."
Sun Ye picked up his chopsticks and put a few more pieces of frangipani into the bowls of Old Mrs. Sun and Old Man Sun, making the two old men laugh so hard that they couldn't stop.
We slept soundly all night and woke up at dawn.
When Sun Ye got up and washed up in the morning, he accidentally saw Lin Qianjin and his teacher riding bicycles across the small road, and they disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Looking at the sky, it’s still very early, just around six o’clock. I wonder where the teacher is going so early in the morning.
Sun Ye's task today is to read. As for going to work, her mom and dad are determined not to let her. Sun Ye has no choice but to give in to their wishes, but if she finds an opportunity, she will still do her best to help.
After breakfast, Mr. and Mrs. Sun and Old Lady Sun went to work together. As for Sun Ye's request to bring some bok choy, he just made an excuse and said he would pick them when he had time.
When Sun Ye had some free time, he first reviewed his books for a while. His eyes felt a little sore, so he looked into the distance.
She couldn't just read books like this all the time without moving around. It just so happened that she hadn't had time to wash last night's clothes, so she took her grandparents' clothes to the river as well.
The river water was still a little hot in the summer. Sun Ye found a shady place where the sun couldn't reach, hung his clothes with ash, and started smashing them with a stick.
There seemed to be a car bell. Sun Ye turned around and saw that it was indeed Lin Qianjin. He came back alone and did not see the teacher.
Sun Ye shook his wet hands to clean the water stains, stood up, and said to Lin Qianjin who was coming towards him:
"Brother Lin, where are you going so early in the morning? Why isn't the teacher with you?"
Lin Qianjin's long legs stopped the car, scratched his head, and said, "I'm not going anywhere, just walking around nearby."
Sun Ye’s first reaction was that she couldn’t understand what this guy was saying.
When I saw Lin Qianjin tapping the ground with his toes, I knew that this guy was lying. I discovered this little lie by accident.
"But I saw you taking the teacher to town this morning, and you didn't even hear me when I called you."
Sun Ye deliberately spoke half-truthfully. She always felt that this guy was holding something against her, and it was directly related to her. Don't ask her why she knew it, her intuition told her.
"Ah, you saw it."
"Brother Lin, can't you tell me? Or can't I know?" Sun Ye pressed on.
"Well, I don't know if I can tell you."
Sun Ye raised his eyebrows, knowing what was going on. It seemed that the problem was not serious and there was still a possibility of knowing it.
"Then just tell me, I'll know sooner or later, right?"
"Too."
Sun Ye nodded, Brother Lin was indeed a good man.
"Even if you want to take the graduation exam, the principal can't just say you can take it whenever you want. Professor Lin agreed to teach them for a month before the two principals agreed."
"If you ask me, this principal is truly cunning. He's just taking advantage of the fact that teachers need diplomas. Professors at Shuimu University don't even have enough time to do experiments every day, yet they insist on teaching. At this point, everyone who teaches is just reading from a textbook..."
Lin Qianjin kept talking a lot, but Sun Ye had already turned a deaf ear to him. She really thought that she could get a diploma if she had the ability, but she didn't expect there would be such a "deal".
"Ye Zi, I'm leaving first. I'm afraid Jianwu won't be able to handle the research institute alone. Let's talk again when we have time."
Lin Qianjin's car had gone a long way when Sun Ye finally reacted and said, "You go ahead."
Sun Ye washed the clothes absentmindedly, thinking about the two graduation certificates. If she had known earlier that the diplomas were obtained in this way, she would have definitely not taken the exams. It would have been possible for her to pass the exams by going to school step by step.
I feel more and more indebted to my teacher, and I want to do something for him but I don’t know where to start.
The teacher has everything he needs. He has spent most of his life on research and experiments. Perhaps a breakthrough can be made in this area.
After this incident, Sun Ye also understood that there is no free lunch in the world. If you want to get something, you have to pay something. Not everyone is your parent and will give you unconditionally.
At night, Sun Ye estimated that the time was about right, so she decided to go to the educated youth site in person to express her gratitude to the teacher, even though it was of no value.
Inside the room, Sun Ye stood still. Professor Liu was looking through some documents in the dim light. He asked, "What can I do for you?"
"Teacher, I understand."
"What do you know? Why are you being so serious?"
"Teacher, are you teaching so that I can pass the graduation exam, teacher..."
"Oh, you're talking about this. It's not worth a big deal. It's not a bad thing. Teaching and educating people is just a matter of convenience. It's okay to agree to it."
Professor Liu deliberately spoke lightly, but Sun Ye could hear it. How could someone who could not leave the institute to do research unless he could find time to teach?
"Teacher, really, I don't know how to express my gratitude."
"Teacher Liu, thank you!"
"If you study hard and get into a good university, you will be worthy of me."
"I won't let you down."
………
One year later.
It has been a month since the college entrance examination documents came down, and the exam will officially start in October. Sun Ye has been preparing for a whole year, and he feels like the heavy stone in his heart has finally been settled.
The teachers at the educated youth training center were also reviewing their textbooks at this time. Even Sister Lanlan, who had already graduated, stopped working and joined the reviewing army.
Because of this, Sister Lanlan had several fights with her brother, aunt and others, and Sister Lanlan won by being able to continue her studies.
The Sun family gathered a group of grandchildren, and Sun Ye was the only one with the most complete review materials, which were not available in the town now. Sun Ye, who had first-hand information, was instantly attracted.
"Ye Zi, look, this question is like this, why do I feel something is wrong?"
"Here I am, Sister Lanlan."
Sun Ye is now helping everyone review while also consolidating his own foundation, which is beneficial rather than harmful. It is a bit lonely to study alone for such a long time.
"Here's the thing, you need to use this formula, but there's a trap in the question..."
Sun's mother and father, who were listening outside the house, looked at each other and left quietly.
