Chapter 112 Chapter 112 Second

Update After the announcement of the resumption of the college entrance examination, the night school of the embroidery factory suddenly had many more students. Considering that the educated youth also needed to study, the embroidery factory hired several retired teachers from county high schools and changed the original evening and weekend classes to full-day classes.

As long as the students' own time allowed, they could even stay in the temporary classroom to study from morning to night, and they only needed to pay a certain amount of money to eat in the canteen specially allocated for them in the factory.

There were so many people in the factory all of a sudden. Even though the preliminary work had been done very carefully, such as the temporary classrooms were all near the administrative building, away from the workshop, and fenced off to form a closed area, and special canteens and dormitories were set aside for teachers and trainees to use, so as to prevent trainees from affecting the normal work of the factory, but no matter what, the pressure of security was still very high.

However, the people in the security department had no complaints. College entrance exams, this hadn't happened in more than a decade. The trainees were so hardworking, so what was wrong with them helping with some logistics and security work?

Who knows, this night school run by their factory could produce a group of college students!

Besides, these people work so hard that they forget to eat and sleep every day. They walk with their eyes wide open while reciting. How can they have the energy to do anything messy?

As long as we keep an eye on them and don't let them go the wrong way or bump into a tree, it's almost done. There's no need to worry too much about them doing anything weird.

Shortly after the announcement of the resumption of the college entrance examination, the examination time in Southern Province was quickly set. It was on December 10, 11, and 12, leaving only about a month.

When the students saw that the examination time was imminent, they worked even harder. Some of them simply lived in the classroom with mats and quilts. When they were sleepy, they wrapped themselves in quilts and slept for a while. When they woke up, they continued to study.

The winter in Southern Province is not that cold, but sleeping in an empty classroom in November and December is enough to freeze you to death, but at least you will get sick.

After Shen Moer heard about this, she asked the factory to vacate some empty rooms in the dormitory area, with lights on and hot water available 24 hours a day, and finally drove those desperate people back to the dormitory.

The cadres and employees of the embroidery factory generally have higher education, so many people want to take the college entrance examination this time.

At first, some people were still hesitant, but after the registration was opened, the factory office heard that their director Shen had also registered, and the factory was suddenly in an uproar. In disbelief, many people who were originally hesitant gritted their teeth and put fifty cents in their pockets to register.

The registration fee is only 50 cents, so just think of it as giving yourself a chance. After all, you won't feel bad if you lose 50 cents. If you can pass the exam, it will be different.

In fact, no one knows what the difference is.

Some people who don't want their daughters-in-law and sons-in-law to register sneer and say that after graduating from university, they will go to work in state-owned factories. They are already working, so why bother?

But every time at this time, those who were originally undecided will say: "According to what you said, graduating from university may not necessarily make you a factory director, but why did Director Shen register? It shows that studying more is definitely good, otherwise the factory would not have spent so much effort on night school."

The sarcastic people were speechless immediately. You can't say that the factory director has a problem with his brain, right?

They thought so, but they didn't dare to say it.

Although Shen Moer signed up, except for a few summary and improvement classes occasionally, she usually followed the routine and didn't read until late at night.

She had already spent several years more than others. If she still couldn't pass the exam, she could only reflect on whether she was too stupid.

Fu Mingze was even more excessive. Relying on his good brain, he only took two hours every night to review his homework, and the rest of the time he was diligently taking care of the children.

Little bean Liangliang had no idea what kind of historical moment his parents were going through. He ate and slept every day, and his little face became rounder and rounder. With a pair of big dark round eyes, he looked like a New Year picture doll. Maybe he

was too fat. For a moment, it was really hard to tell who this child looked like.

However, Fu Mingze firmly believed that his daughter looked like his wife. Now she was a chubby baby, and when she grew up, she would be a beautiful girl like her mother.

Since his granddaughter was born, Shen Shaoyuan would draw a picture for her almost every few days. Other children would go to the photo studio to take a picture when they were one month old or one year old, but every month, Xiao Liangliang would have a picture that could rival a photo.

When Shen Shaoyuan was proud of a painting, he would bring the painting to Xiao Liangliang and let his granddaughter appreciate it together.

And every time at this time, the little friend Liangliang would stare at the chubby child in the painting with her black grape-like eyes, and then spit.

By the beginning of December, Shen Moer and Fu Mingze both felt that they should relax a little, so they stopped reading and went back to Yangliu Brigade as a family of four on weekends. After

Lingjiang City Embroidery Factory was listed, Shen Moer asked Lu Dongyun and the others to work in the factory. They were not formal workers and were still called "labor reform", but they were given an independent workshop and a floor of independent dormitories.

Now the house in the brigade headquarters is empty again, without the busy scene before. Instead, the aunts and grandmas in the village are used to coming here to chat. As long as the sun comes out, the yard in front of the brigade headquarters is full of people.

The harvest in the village has been getting better and better in recent years, and many families have one or two workers, so everyone's life has become better, and even fighting and quarreling have become less common.

The old ladies sat together and chatted, and they all talked about getting something good to replenish their families after the autumn harvest, or they heard that the sparrow market has reopened, so they will go to check it out during New Year's Day and start to stock up on New Year's goods.

Seeing Shen Moer and the others return to the village, everyone was very happy, and they immediately surrounded Fu Mingze who was holding the child.

Xiao Liangliang, who was hiding in the quilt, was exposed in front of a group of aunts and sisters-in-law.

The little boy squinted his eyes at first, and after slowly waking up, he opened his eyes wide like a kitten, shook his hands wrapped in a small blanket, kicked his little feet, and showed a toothless smile.

"Oh, this child is so good-looking, with such big eyes and a smart face. He looks blessed."

"The parents are good-looking, how can the child not be good-looking? Look, he is not afraid of strangers at all!"

...

The child's father stood there expressionlessly, and the aunts and sisters-in-law did not dare to get too close. They stood at an arm's length, looked at him curiously, and then praised the child in various ways.

This child is really cute. Even though life has been better in the past two years, they have never seen such a chubby baby in their countryside!

You want to say that this is a daughter-in-law and not a son? No one in their Yangliu Brigade dares to say such a son-in-law thing now. Their brigade has produced several female factory managers, whether it is Shen Moer or Li Xinmei, or Principal Cheng's wife Xing Fangjie, which one is not better than the old men's sons?

After Fu Mingze praised them one by one, he carried the daughter-in-law into the yard.

The orange tree planted in the yard two years ago has produced about a dozen fruits this year. At this time, the oranges hanging on the tree are already red. Little Liangliang is held by her father and stands in front of the orange tree, tilting her head to look curiously. Fu Mingze picked an orange, put it in front of the lady, and said, "This is an orange, you can eat it next year."

Little Liangliang spit out another string of saliva.

Shen Moer was still chatting with the aunts and sisters-in-law outside.

Aunt Chen's hair had turned a lot whiter, but she looked very energetic. She pulled Shen Moer and sighed, "You are a noble lady in our Chen family. Xinmei came back a while ago and told me that ten years ago, even if she had ten times the courage, she would not dare to think that she could become the deputy director of a state-owned factory! And our Maomao, if you and Zhou Zhaodi hadn't been urging him all the time, he would never have studied. Now he said that he will also take the college entrance examination next year and become a college student."

"Are you and Fu Zhiqing leaving? I heard that you two have signed up for the college entrance examination. I know you two will definitely pass. Oh, I really can't bear to leave you two."

Aunt Cai interrupted and said, "I see that you are getting more and more confused. The exam hasn't even started yet. Why are you saying all this? In my opinion, isn't it a good thing that Moer and Fu Zhiqing can get into college? They are young people. If you want to go to college, you want to go to the capital, Shanghai, or even farther places. How wonderful! We don’t have this opportunity, but they do. Oh, I’m so jealous.”

Another mother said, “Speaking of the college entrance examination, I ran into Shen Lingling two days ago and asked her why she didn’t register even though she’s a high school student. There are four teachers in our primary school, and I heard that the others have registered, but she hasn’t.”

"Well, I used to think Shen Lingling was a smart, educated, and intelligent person, but since she got married, I think she has become more and more confused. Her son Zhang Junliang always goes out with his cousin in the commune, but she doesn't care. She only pampers her son Zhang Pengpeng all day long. My goodness, a five or six-year-old child is spoiled to the point of being lawless."

"To be superstitious, I think she seems to have been bewitched by that Zhang Junliang. Two days ago, I heard her say that her son Zhang Junliang was going to take the college entrance examination and would be a college student in the future. She spoke as if Zhang Junliang had already passed."

Someone said, "She is actually the same as her mother. They both look smart but are actually very confused."

The topic soon changed to other places. Shen Moer sat aside, listening to their parents gossiping about this year's harvest, which type of seeds has a high yield, how many people are looking for partners after the autumn harvest, how popular the girls and boys in their Yangliu Brigade are now, and how they don't know how many pounds of meat they will get when they slaughter the pigs this year... It seemed that her heart, which was a little anxious because of the approaching exam, calmed down unconsciously.

The family spent a day of "rural life" in Yangliu Brigade. Before leaving, Shen Shaoyuan took out a small pot of wine from his room.

Fu Mingze was no longer surprised. His father-in-law's room was like a treasure bag, and the wine he brewed himself was said to be endless.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the day of the exam arrived.

Because there were so many applicants in Liuqiao Commune, the county simply set up an exam site in Liuqiao Commune, so everyone didn't have to rush to the county town in the cold weather.

At the end of the third day of the exam, Shen Moer came out of the exam room and saw Fu Mingze standing at the door waiting for her. She walked over quickly: "Fu Zhiqing, how was it, did you do well in the exam?"

"Wow, not well in the exam, I failed the exam, I failed the exam!"

A hysterical sobbing suddenly sounded next to her. Shen Moer was startled and turned her head subconsciously to see a tall and strong man who burst into tears and snot.

Shen Moer: "..."

It was quite a contrast.

Then soon, there were cries and sobs all around. Some were crying because they had failed the exam, and some were just venting the emotions that had been tense for more than a month.

For a while, the campus of the Commune Middle School was filled with sorrow.

Shen Moer suddenly felt guilty and dared not mention whether she did well in the exam. She went over and grabbed Fu Mingze's hand and left.

But at this time, Fu Mingze did not forget to answer her question: "You did well in the exam. There was no question that you could not answer. How about you?"

Shen Moer: "..."

Although I could do it, it might be better to talk about this at home?

What if you look at the eyes of the people around you?
