“Maybe.”
"Okay, don't be angry, I'll fry some spicy chicken for you tonight," Fu Shinian coaxed.
"Really?" Tong Yiya asked
"Of course, if we don't eat the chickens at home now, it will be difficult to deal with them when we return to the capital. It's better to kill one every few days and eat it all," said Fu Shinian.
"Forget it. What kind of family is this? You kill a chicken every few days and eat it. Why don't you make it into a dried chicken and take it back for our grandparents and parents to taste. This is a free-range chicken we raised ourselves," said Tong Yiya.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. Let's kill one and try it later," said Fu Shinian.
"Yes, leave the chicken legs and wings alone and make clear soup for the children," said Tong Yiya
"Okay, I'll make a note of that."
When Fu Shinian went to kill the chicken, Tong Yiya went to the kitchen to boil some hot water so that she could use it to scald the chicken feathers.
The family of four ate chicken in the evening. Tong Yiya and her friends had spicy chicken, and the two children had braised chicken legs and wings, just enough for each of them to get a chicken leg and a chicken wing.
Later, the people from the educated youth point did not come to see Tong Yiya and her husband again, because they were afraid that she would go to the team leader and cancel their half-day work and half-day rest for review.
Without the interruptions from others, Tong Yiya and the other two's review life went by very quickly, and they knew the textbooks by heart.
After such a period of time, the college entrance examination in 1978 finally arrived.
Early in the morning of that day, the team leader took the people from their village who were going to take the college entrance examination and went to the town on a borrowed tractor.
The examination venues for several people were all in the town’s middle school. People from several nearby teams who were taking the college entrance examination all took the exam in this school.
A group of people arrived at the place early. After getting off the bus, the three of them gathered together and drew a line between themselves and the educated youth.
Those people didn't come up to them shamelessly. The three of them encouraged each other and waited to enter the college entrance examination.
Soon the school gate was filled with people, and the invigilators inside began to let people in.
The three of them were not in the same class. Although they were nervous, it was still within control.
Tong Yiya asked the captain's wife to help take care of her two children these two days. The two children also knew that their parents had exams these two days, so they were very obedient and followed the captain to stay at his house without crying or making a fuss.
Two days of the college entrance examination passed quickly. When the students left the examination room, some looked happy, some looked depressed, and some looked for people to check answers with as soon as they came out. When they realized that their answers were different from everyone else's, they started crying bitterly.
Tong Yiya and the other two just wanted to relax. The couple had been out for two days and hadn't seen their children. They missed them a little, so they didn't stay in school for long. They went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some food that the children liked, and then the three of them returned to the village first.
Yuanyuan and Xiaoyueliang, who were playing in the captain's yard, saw Tong Yiya and the others when they appeared at the other end of the intersection.
"Mom and Dad are back, Grandma Xiuwen," Yuanyuan shouted happily.
"Really? Let me see. Oh, they're really back." The captain's wife walked to the gate of the yard and looked outside. Seeing that there were really three people, she took her two children out to greet them.
When Tong Yiya and Fu Shinian saw the children, they took a few quick steps and caught the two children who were running towards them.
"Baby, have you missed mom and dad these days?" Tong Yiya hugged Xiaoyue and kissed her and asked
"Yes, I missed my mother very much at night, but I knew that my parents were busy these two days, so I didn't cry. Mom, am I the bravest child?" Little Moon asked
"Yes, Yuanyuan and Xiaoyueliang are both the bravest children," Fu Shinian said with a smile, holding Yuanyuan in his arms.
Yuanyuan was a little unwilling. He originally wanted to side with his mother, but his sister and father tricked him and he was intercepted by his father.
But now, hearing his parents praising him and his sister, he reluctantly forgave them in his heart and leaned obediently in his father's arms.
After kissing the child, Fu Shinian put Yuanyuan down, picked up the thank-you gift they had prepared, walked to the captain's wife, handed it to her and said, "Aunt, thank you for helping to take care of the two children these two days. Xiaoya and I prepared some small gifts, and I hope you don't mind."
"Oh, the two children are very well behaved. I took them in because I liked them. What other gifts are you giving me? Take them back and give them to the children." The captain's wife refused.
"This is what I should do. Please accept it, Auntie," Tong Yiya said.
"You are always so polite. I don't want to go to your house next time," said the captain's wife.
"Auntie, you have to come. If Comrade Deng is admitted to the same school as us in the future, your family will have to keep in touch with us. Otherwise, I want to eat some authentic pickled cabbage, but I can't find a place to get it," Tong Yiya said with a smile.
"You, then I'll borrow your good wishes. I hope you can get into Sandu High School," said Aunt Xiuwen with a smile.
"Then auntie, we'll go back first. We'll get together again in a few days." Tong Yiya thought about the two days of the college entrance examination. The three of them were tired, so she wanted to go back.
"Okay, you two are tired these past two days, go back and have a good rest," said Aunt Xiuwen.
The two of them returned home with the children and did a simple cleaning. Fu Shinian went to cook dinner. The family ate early and then washed up and rested.
At night, the two children were unwilling to sleep alone and they took up the seat next to Tong Yiya, which made Fu Shinian very angry. But in the end, thinking that they hadn't slept with their mother for two days, he endured it and slept under his own quilt.
After a night's rest, they all recovered. The next step was to pack up some things that they didn't need now, as well as the dried vegetables and various dried meats they had prepared, and send them back to Beijing one after another.
There are only a few things left that the two of them can take, and after the notice arrives, they can go back to the city directly.
This year they are planning to go back home to celebrate the New Year. The elders in the family haven't seen their two children for many years and they miss them terribly.
A few days after the college entrance examination, the captain's family invited Tong Yiya's family to a gathering. They discussed that after the notification letter came out, if Deng Jianwen was admitted to Beijing University, he would go to Beijing with them to take a look, rent a yard first, and then come back to pick up the captain and his wife.
The captain can also take advantage of his visit to Beijing to hand over his duties.
Of course Fu Shinian and the others did not refuse. If Deng Jianwen were with them, there would be more people to protect the child.
There have been many human traffickers on trains in recent years. They will prepare a sleeper berth, but they are also afraid that when Fu Shinian goes out to fetch water, someone will target Yuanyuan and Xiaoyueliang.
More than half a month later, those villagers who took the college entrance examination received admission letters from universities one after another, but Tong Yiya and the other two never received one.
