Chapter 38: Guaguaguaguaguaguagua doesn't listen to Xiang Yao's words, he will suffer the consequences next year...
Xiang Yao never dreamed in her previous life that one day she would be able to recreate the beautiful scenes in the TV series.
On both sides of the road are irregular fields framed by ridges, some of which are square and some are round.
The green seedlings sway in the wind, gently creating waves.
The air is fragrant, the kind of fragrance that comes from squeezing juice out of green grass, faint and elusive.
The sun is not too hot anymore, and the breeze is quite pleasant.
The sky is high and the clouds are vast. Half of the mountains in the distance are exposed in the sun, and the other half are hidden in a dark blue color.
Their bicycles moved alone on the dirt road, their wheels rolling at a steady pace.
Under the gaze, there is a vast and flowing world, pure nature, which intoxicates the wind and the heart.
Especially, especially since there was a tall, handsome young man in a white shirt sitting in front of him...
Xiang Yao poked the shirt on the young man's back that was blown up by the wind, and felt an urge to sing out loud.
But she finally held back and asked curiously, "Nie Baichuan, were you still studying before you came to Xiangjiawan?"
Nie Baichuan hummed, "I was a freshman in high school that year."
Although his father did not take off his hat, he still kept his job with salary, so his schooling was actually going quite smoothly.
And given his personality, not many people in school can bully him.
Xiang Yao calculated and felt something was wrong: "How old are you this year?"
Nie Baichuan: "Twenty."
Xiang Yao said doubtfully, "I remember someone on the team said that you and your father returned to your hometown eight years ago, right? You didn't study after you came back."
Nie Baichuan: "Yeah."
Xiang Yao's eyes widened: "Eight years ago you were only twelve years old! How could you be in high school?"
Before she came here, she knew that some universities had junior classes, which were full of geniuses. But now there is no college entrance examination, so there should be no such thing as a junior class, right?
Moreover, Nie Baichuan did not start college in the junior class at the age of twelve, but was in the first year of high school at the age of twelve.
She herself was a first-year high school student at the age of fifteen, and most of her classmates were around the same age.
After graduating from high school at the age of eighteen, they went to different universities, and graduated again at the age of twenty-two, entering the same society.
Nie Baichuan said, "I skipped two grades in elementary school. I started junior high school at the age of ten and high school at the age of twelve."
Xiang Yao blinked and understood.
He skipped grades in elementary school. Now junior high and high school only take two years to complete, so it seems normal to go to high school at the age of twelve.
Uh, no, this person is already a young genius, a good student, and is not within the normal range!
Hey, someone like Nie Baichuan probably won't have to worry about writing a graduation thesis in his entire life...
Xiang Yao's eyes felt empty, and he couldn't help but sigh silently when he thought of his unfinished graduation thesis.
After thinking for a moment, she said, "I remember your father used to be an associate professor and a key researcher at the design institute. No wonder you were able to skip a grade!"
With a father like this, he must have given his son a lot of special treatment.
Nie Baichuan laughed briefly, his tone tinged with humor. "My skipping a grade has nothing to do with my dad. He's very busy every day and doesn't really care about my studies."
Xiang Yao: ...
Xiang Yao was silent for a moment: "I understand. It's purely due to your outstanding intelligence and self-reliance."
Nie Baichuan: "Thank you so much."
Xiang Yao: ...
She felt that Nie Baichuan had become a little naughty. What was going on?
Xiang Yao decided to change the subject: "Nie Baichuan, do you still remember your high school courses?"
The college entrance examination will be resumed soon, and she feels that someone with strong learning ability like Nie Baichuan should not be buried in the impoverished Xiangjiawan.
Nie Baichuan nodded: "After I came back, my father often gave me lectures."
The main reason was that his father was not used to going to bed too early, and in his early years he would always mutter about various principles in the shabby little house at night.
The father and son were lying together, and he was simply forced to listen.
That knowledge can’t be forgotten even if you want to.
Xiang Yao considered his tone and said, "You must study hard. The knowledge you learn will not let you down."
Nie Baichuan was silent for a second, then sneered, "Studying hard is actually useless."
Xiang Yao immediately retorted: "How can it be useless? Of course it is useful!"
Nie Baichuan: "Then tell me, what's the use?"
In recent years, the majority of people have been sending educated youth to the countryside, which indirectly proves that studying is useless.
I can't get into university, and I can't go back to the city just because I have read a lot of books.
Xiang Yao gazed at the boundless blue sky and said, "Reading is incredibly useful. Building bridges requires knowledge, building bicycles requires knowledge, and future information technology, infrastructure, and every industry will require knowledge."
She said softly, "So, the country will definitely not let educated youth stay in the countryside forever. Economic development requires those educated people to be the leaders of the times, and social development requires a large number of people to go to the cities to build the country."
By then, not only will it be no problem for educated youth to return to the city, but countless migrant workers will also rush to the cities and build high-rise buildings and wide roads with their own hands.
Nie Baichuan pondered for a moment and slowed down his pedaling.
After a while, he said, "Do you really think so? What is your basis?"
You know, ever since the blank paper hero appeared in 1973, the theory that studying is useless has become popular and one of the most trendy ideas.
In the eyes of most educated young people, cultural knowledge has become a vassal of life, and the role of knowledge is completely denied.
And now, Xiang Yao, a girl who grew up in the countryside and dropped out of high school, said in a serious and pious tone that knowledge is useful, that the country will not abandon educated youth, and that the future needs knowledge to build...
Nie Baichuan wanted to know where her confidence came from and what her determination was based on.
Xiang Yao nodded firmly: "I really think so. As for the basis for my claim, I don't have any."
Of course there are, like the exam in the winter of 1977 that millions of young people took, the great changes in the times brought about by knowledge since then, and the incredibly happy lives of people in later generations...
But Xiang Yao couldn't say it, couldn't describe the brilliant pictures in her mind.
Nie Baichuan stopped talking, seemingly not believing it.
Xiang Yao was not discouraged. It was normal that no one believed her. She was not an authority. She was just a country girl with little knowledge.
However, a minute later, Xiang Yao suddenly reacted.
She poked Nie Baichuan on the back and asked suspiciously, "Nie Baichuan, are you trying to trick me?"
Nie Baichuan didn't expect that she actually realized it. He raised his eyebrows and didn't deny it: "You found out."
Xiang Yao pouted her mouth, looking like a little goldfish, puffed up.
"Just study hard," she said unhappily. "You'll know better later."
If you don't listen to the advice of the elderly, you will suffer the consequences.
If you don’t listen to Xiang Yao’s words, you will suffer next year!
Nie Baichuan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Although he knew that the other party was joking, Xiang Yao didn't know why his heart started beating a little faster.
She was really hungry.
Even ordinary words can convey unique emotions.
Xiang Yao blinked and laughed at himself.
The big villain will compete with the hero for the heroine in the future. She is just a small fry, so don't even think about him.
…
I have to say, two wheels are much faster than two legs.
The original plan was to get to Xiangjiawan before dark. Xiang Yao had had enough of the melons today and didn't want to listen to another live sex show like the last time.
Thanks to Comrade Nie Baichuan's enthusiasm, we arrived before five o'clock, when the sun had not yet set.
roadside.
The bicycle stopped, Xiang Yao jumped off, thought for a moment, and said, "Are you free the day after tomorrow? Can I come to you to deliver the goods the day after tomorrow?"
She will be working harder these two days and find more time to harvest the fruits in the melon field.
Nie Baichuan was indifferent: "Okay, come find me when the time comes."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "Just tell my dad if I'm not around. I'll come find you later."
Xiang Yao nodded: "Then it's settled!"
Nie Baichuan: "Yeah."
Neither of them was the type to waste time. Now that they had arrived at the place and had finalized the matter, they didn't say much and turned around to go back home.
When Xiang Yao returned to the old Xiang family's yard, everyone in the family was out, and only his second cousin Ye Fang was collecting clothes in the yard.
Xiang Yao didn't say hello, carrying a heavy cloth bag filled with sweet potatoes, and prepared to deliver the things to his room.
Her second sister-in-law is very arrogant and never looks at her straight in the eye. She will not curry favor with someone who is not welcome.
She felt relieved that no one paid any attention to her.
But today, perhaps because the sun was rising from the west, Xiang Yao ignored Ye Fang. However, Ye Fang, holding her arms full of clothes, greeted her: "Xiang Yao, you're back."
Xiang Yao raised an eyebrow, extending his hand not to hit the smiling person: "Yes, second sister-in-law."
Her family only knew that she went to her grandmother's house in Shiniu Brigade to visit Liu Qiaoyun, but they didn't know that she rushed to the county town early in the morning before going to Shiniu Brigade.
Ye Fang smiled faintly and nodded: "I'm glad you're back. I was worried that you might have encountered something on the way."
Xiang Yao curled his lips: "Nothing happened, the journey was smooth."
It was just that she was being chased by red armbands while doing black market transactions in the county town, and she also got into trouble in the Shiniu Brigade. It was nothing, she was not tired at all.
Ye Fang: "That's good. I'll take your clothes and put them on your bed too?"
This time Xiang Yao was really shocked.
In the past, her second sister-in-law would never help her put away her clothes. It would be good enough if she would throw her clothes on the ground immediately when putting away her own clothes.
After all, sometimes there are not enough clotheslines, and she can really push her wet clothes aside, resulting in nothing getting done all day.
Now she collects her clothes and asks if she should put them on the bed?
Wow! This is really...
When things are abnormal, there must be something fishy!
Xiang Yao silently became alert, but still kept a smile on her face: "Okay, thank you, second sister-in-law."
Ye Fang also smiled: "You're welcome, we're all family, it's only natural."
If it wasn't in front of others, Xiang Yao would have wanted to be sarcastic.
We are all family~As it should be~
Tsk, why didn’t I realize this before?
She doesn't care. Let others do whatever they want. Her main strategy is to counter each move with a countermeasure.
Anyway, if soft tactics don't work, try hard tactics, and if hard tactics don't work, just use a knife. What is she afraid of?
Ye Fang didn't seem to do anything else, and actually sent Xiang Yao's clothes to her room.
When Xiang Yao washed her hands, tidied herself up, and returned to her room, she saw that her clothes were all on the bed, neatly folded.
Xiang Yao looked around the room and saw no signs of rummaging.
She blinked and put the matter aside.
