The two of them followed everyone to the educated youth site.
The people who came this time included not only the educated youth who were originally in the educated youth point, but also some who had already started families in the village, and two other villagers whose families also had high school students, but they didn't know whether they could take the college entrance examination.
After arriving at the educated youth point, everyone carefully studied the contents of the document in the newspaper, and then found that in addition to the application conditions, the examination time was also determined, which was in December.
That means they only have less than two months to review.
As a result, everyone is a little anxious. After so many years in the countryside, many people have almost forgotten what they knew, and they don’t know if it is too late to review it now.
For a moment, a sense of urgency spread in everyone's heart.
"How can these two months be enough? I don't even have a book right now!"
"Me too. I have forgotten all the knowledge. How can I take the exam?"
"Oh, I regret this. I don't know if it will be too late to ask for leave tomorrow to buy books."
"I want to go, too."
...
...
…
Seeing that everyone was anxious, Gu Xiangnan, the person in charge of the educated youth center, took the initiative to speak:
"Don't worry, we feel that we are running out of time, and so do others, so we are all still at the same starting line.
There is not much work left in the village now. I will discuss with the village chief later and from now on, we educated youth will not work anymore and should make the best use of our time to study.
If that doesn’t work, we can study together, divide into groups, and those who know can help those who don’t, which can also deepen their impression.”
Everyone thought his suggestion was good and agreed.
Afterwards, Gu Xiangnan, as a representative, raised this matter to the village chief, and the village chief agreed. After the notice came down, the village chief knew that these educated youth probably could not be retained, so why not leave a good impression.
The next day, the educated youth went to the county town together to buy books.
Lu Xia and the others also went there. Buying books was secondary. The main purpose was to see if they could buy some other exercises.
When I arrived at the county bookstore, I saw that it was full of people, and the line outside was already fifty meters away.
Lu Xia even wondered if all the people in the county who were going to take the college entrance examination were here.
But no matter how many people there were, no one left. They were just a little anxious, afraid that they would not be able to buy it.
Sure enough, when it was finally their turn after waiting in line for several hours, the bookstore was almost empty.
In the end, Lu Xia and Jiang Junmo just bought some ink and draft paper and left.
The educated youth were a little disappointed, but fortunately the bookstore promised to get the books as soon as possible and they could come back to buy them in a few days.
But no one gave up. I don't know who suggested going to the scrap collection station. Everyone thought it was a good idea, but when they got there, they found that the place was also full of people. Fortunately, there were more people than in the bookstore.
At this moment, everyone no longer cared about their image and rushed in to fight with others.
Lu Xia found a place with few people. He didn't see any books useful for the college entrance examination, but he did find two famous foreign classics in English. These things are not allowed to be read in this era.
But Lu Xia still secretly put it into the space.
Everyone gained something this time. At least the high school textbooks were finally complete, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Afterwards, they went to the post office to send letters, and asked their family members to help them find books.
After returning, Lu Xia went to Sun Shengnan's place to pick up Kang Kang. After hearing about the prosperity of the bookstore, she realized how precious the books Lu Xia had given them were.
So he took the initiative to say: "The book you gave me before was written in great detail and is suitable for self-study. I think it is better to return it to you. It is so rare."
Lu Xia smiled and said, "It's okay. Look, we have finished reading all the books in this series."
Sun Shengnan felt relieved after hearing this.
