"The county has specially allocated a quota for workers, peasants and soldiers to study at the university for our village. Anyone who has graduated from junior high school can apply."
"Then the village committee will vote to decide who will receive the spot."
After the village chief finished speaking, the villagers in the audience didn't hear the conditions, but heard that they were college students, so they still went for free.
"Oh, your second child is the right age, hurry up and sign him up."
"That's right. He was just studying well in school and even got a certificate of honor."
"Forget about your second child. Didn't you hear the village chief say that he must graduate from junior high school?"
A woman spat out the melon seed shells in her mouth and said, "The Zhou family, your family is beaten by you every time even for studying. Let alone going to college, no one can even recognize a complete word. I'm afraid it's embarrassing."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone burst into laughter.
Zhou's daughter-in-law was unhappy when her son was ridiculed in public.
"You're such a talkative woman! My second child is a great student, and you're the only one spouting nonsense all day long."
After saying that, he wanted to take action, but was stopped by the people around him.
The educated youth heard the village chief officially announce that there were indeed places available at the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University.
Unfortunately, there is only one.
However, more than one person was moved.
There are only two young people in the village who have graduated from junior high school.
One is Yang Baoguo from the village chief's family, and the other is Wang Ji, who broke off the engagement with Song Lan.
As a married man with young children, Yang Baoguo's wife certainly didn't want her husband to travel so far to go to school.
Even Yang Baoguo himself didn't want to go to junior high school. He was forced by his parents to go to junior high school. He actually didn't like going to school.
My younger sister Yang Xiaoxiao had good grades and her family was willing to let her go to school, but there was a school strike and she had to go home after only two months in the third year of junior high school.
The news of Wang Ji's gambling spread throughout the village, and people with a bad reputation naturally would not go there.
Undoubtedly, this quota fell on the educated youth.
As for who it is?
That night, the village chief's door was knocked three times.
Some come with things in their hands and leave with things in their hands.
Some of them have serious faces. They come with smiles on their faces and leave with gloomy faces.
Some left empty-handed, looking very proud.
Not only was there unrest in the village chief's house, but even the old accountant's house in the village had uninvited guests.
......
Xu Zhiyi just saw Gan Tiantian at home with a smile on her face.
"Zhiyi, Brother Fang Kai doesn't plan to compete for this spot this time. He said he won't leave me alone in the village."
As she said this, Gan Tiantian's face flushed.
"Is he reluctant to part with you as his sister, or is he reluctant to part with you as his girlfriend?" Xu Zhiyi's words had hidden meaning.
Gan Tiantian didn't pay attention to the second half of the sentence and subconsciously continued, "Of course it's me, your sister..."
"Of course it's my sister. How could there be any partner?" Gan Tiantian's eyes were wandering, and she didn't look at Xu Zhiyi.
It's still stuck.
Xu Zhiyi and Shen Zhaodi looked at each other and knew what was going on.
The two of them didn't say anything, but smiled meaningfully.
Gan Tiantian just felt her face getting hot, especially when she thought about what she asked Fang Kai yesterday afternoon.
Fang Kai touched her head and said, "You are here. If I go and you are bullied, no one will stand up for you. I can only feel at ease when I am by your side watching over you."
The affection and seriousness in his eyes when he said this made Gan Tiantian's heart beat faster.
"I...I understand." Gan Tiantian nodded quietly.
She knew that Fang Kai would definitely not abandon her, but it seemed like there was something else that she hadn't figured out yet.
"Zhao Di, what do you think?" Xu Zhiyi was afraid that he had teased too much and Gan Tiantian would cry again, so he changed the subject.
Shen Zhaodi shook her head and said, "I'd rather not sign up. There's only one spot, and it's hard to grab it."
Last night, several educated youth from the educated youth point went out carrying their belongings.
Shen Zhaodi had no money and no belongings, and there were people in this place that she couldn't let go of, so she didn't do that useless work.
"It's okay. The country needs to develop in the future, and development requires talent. As long as we study hard, there will always be opportunities."
Xu Zhiyi spoke vaguely, but still advised them not to put down their books easily.
"During this period, you should be careful and don't go to crowded places alone. Who knows if someone will do something bad because of this quota."
Gan Tiantian was a little frightened and confused, and asked uncertainly, "No way?"
Instead, Shen Zhaodi seemed to be thinking about something.
"People's hearts are fickle, especially when their own interests are at stake. They are the most vulnerable to the test."
Xu Zhiyi has seen a lot in the end times. Human hearts cannot stand the test. If you are not careful, you may be betrayed and stabbed in the back by people close to you.
"If you really don't want to participate, then it's best to let everyone else at the educated youth site know and believe what you say."
Xu Zhiyi said something inexplicably.
"Why?"
\"To avoid accidental injury."\" Xu Zhiyi looked at Gan Tiantian with a smile.
Gan Tiantian felt that Xu Zhiyi's smile was inexplicably creepy.
She didn't quite understand, so she went back to ask Brother Fang Kai. Brother Fang Kai knew everything and would definitely know what Zhiyi meant.
The atmosphere at the educated youth site has been very strange recently. Before, when we ate together, everyone would chat and laugh, but now everyone eats separately and doesn't talk much, as if there is some kind of barrier between them.
Except for Luo Mei, everyone else was in a weird mood all day long.
Xie Tang seemed not to notice the strange atmosphere among the crowd, and still acted like a good sister as usual.
Xie Tang has always been kind-hearted. Most of the educated youth at the educated youth site have received her care and attention, but they still treat her the same as usual.
After finishing their meal, Xie Tang called out to Gan Tiantian, "Tiantian, have you told Zhiyi? Has she signed up?"
Gan Tiantian said doubtfully, "No, Zhiyi said she won't sign up. She doesn't want to participate."
Xie Tang called Gan Tiantian and asked this question in front of everyone.
After hearing Gan Tiantian's answer, the educated youth who had been listening attentively were delighted. As long as Xu Zhiyi did not participate, their chances of being selected would be much greater.
They were concerned about Xu Zhiyi because they knew her contributions to the village and her good reputation among the villagers.
And, most importantly, Xu Zhiyi saved the village chief's grandson and was indebted to the village chief's family. If Xu Zhiyi wanted a spot, it would be easy.
What does it have to do with them?
"My brother Fang Kai, Zhaodi and I haven't registered yet. We won't participate in the election." Gan Tiantian thought of what Xu Zhiyi said and just blurted it out.
As to whether they believe it or not, I don’t know.
Suddenly, there were four fewer people competing, and the biggest competitor wasn't even participating, which made the others feel that their chances of getting a spot were even greater.
Soon, Gan Tiantian understood what Xu Zhiyi meant by the so-called test of human heart.
