Chapter 530 Eleven Years



Chapter 530 Eleven Years

At the end of 1977, Xia Zhizhi returned home to celebrate the New Year.

Last year, two leaders passed away one after another, and new leaders came to power. In the second half of this year, the college entrance examination was resumed. At that time, Xia Zhizhi was in Hong Kong, so naturally she did not catch up.

Her family wanted to contact her and ask her if she wanted to come back and take the college entrance examination with her family.

But she was fooling around outside and there was no way to contact her.

Although the elders of the Xia family were anxious, they had no choice but to give up. Anyway, she couldn't catch up this year, so she could try next year. As long as she wanted to take the exam, she would be able to pass it.

Xia Zhizhi's third sister-in-law, cousins, and even her uncle's nephews who were of appropriate age all went to take the college entrance examination.

When she returned home, Pan Wenjun also pulled her aside to discuss: "Zhizhi, do you want to go to college? If you do, then we won't go out next year and we can prepare for the exam at home, okay?"

Pan Wenjun didn't have any specific requirements for her to achieve a lot, but she calculated that she was already 27 years old this year.

Either she should get married and start a family, or continue her studies. She has to find a serious job. She can't continue to mess around like this.

It's no wonder her family urged her. Even in the next few decades, this age would be considered late for marriage, let alone now.

She traveled through time in March of 1966, and the next two months were the special decade.

She had a good memory, and the memories of her battle of wits and courage with the Xia family when she was in Yang City were still vivid in her mind, as if it happened just yesterday.

But in a flash, 11 years have passed.

Those turbulent days are finally over. When Xia Zhizhi came back by bus today, she saw the young people on the street. The vigorous vitality on their faces were full of longing for a bright future.

"Time flies so fast." Xia Zhizhi sighed.

"Isn't it fast? Life goes by in the blink of an eye." Pan Wenjun touched Xia Zhizhi's hair lovingly.

As soon as Xia Zhizhi got home, she resumed her simple dressing style, with two pigtails hanging down in front of her chest. She was almost 30, but dressed like this, she looked very young and like a student. If she told others she was 18, they would believe her.

Xia Zhizhi neither agreed nor refused to take the college entrance examination. Of course, at her age, there were many ways to learn knowledge.

She didn't yearn for campus life in this era, so it was naturally impossible for her to spend time going to college.

She just patted Pan Wenjun's hand and said, "Okay, Mom, I understand. Don't worry, I will think about it carefully."

Pan Wenjun looked at Ah Ju behind Xia Zhizhi again.

This child really is the same, following Xia Zhizhi closely for decades.

Even Pan Wenjun, as a mother, found this unbelievable.

As long as people are a little more mature, they will understand that no one in this world lives entirely for another person.

Xia Zhi, this child, completely goes against human nature and really lives for Xia Zhizhi.

Pan Wenjun thinks her daughter is a bit of a scumbag. Of course, she doesn't have this adjective yet. She just thinks she is a bit bad.

More than 3,000 days and nights, even an ice block would have melted, right?

Pan Wenjun asked Xia Zhizhi tentatively, "Next year, you will be 28, almost 29, and Ah Zhi will be 30. It's time for you to think about your life, even if your mother is pushing you. Besides, your grandparents are old, and to put it bluntly, they still have a few more years of good life. You can't let them not see you get married."

Xia Zhizhi looked at Pan Wenjun seriously and said, "Mom, I know that getting married, having a family and having children is a very happy and blissful thing from a certain perspective, but it is only one way to be happy. It is an option in life, not a must."

Pan Wenjun was considered a very open-minded parent in this era, but after hearing the implication of Xia Zhizhi's words, she still found it hard to accept: "How can this be possible without getting married?"

Xia Zhizhi advised her to be more open-minded: "It's not a crime, and it's not against moral conscience, so why can't it be okay?"

"Then when you grow older, you will be alone..." Having said this, Pan Wenjun paused and looked at Xia Zhi next to him. He should not be lonely.

Xia Zhizhi's meaning was quite clear. She just didn't want to get married, but she didn't remain chaste.

In fact, there are some old revolutionary female comrades in the army who have never married and have been fighting for the revolutionary cause all their lives.

Even in some places in the south, many girls comb their hair and never get married.

From an outsider's perspective, Pan Wenjun admires them very much.

But that's how people are. Once it involves their loved ones, their level of acceptance will naturally decrease.

There is no way. After all, the child is so old, I can't control her, and it is impossible to really tie her up and beat her. What else can I do?

Anyway, whether they accept it or not, Xia Zhizhi is like this. So it is better to be more open-minded, so that your life will be better.

In this regard, the person who was most open-minded was Xia Sihua.

There are three brothers in the Xia family. As for the daughters of the eldest and the second brother, Xia Sihua will not be mentioned. After all, she is just a niece, and there is a layer of distance between them. Their parents will take care of their education.

As long as his own daughter doesn't do anything wrong, what does it matter if she is a little rebellious?

After all, the Xia family has a good family background, so even if the daughter never goes to work and just runs around playing, she will never be hungry.

She has nephews and nieces, so she won't be left without anyone to take care of her when she gets old.

If that's the case, why bother with it?

Xia Sihua spent several days doing ideological work for his parents and daughter-in-law, and finally made everyone feel a little relieved and tacitly agreed with Xia Zhizhi's idea.

Xia Bangguo was still deceiving himself by thinking that as for the relationship between Xia Zhizhi and Xia Zhi, although they slept in separate rooms when they returned home, who would know when they were out? They were all young people here, so wasn't that the same as a young couple?

It's just that we didn't have a wedding and didn't get a marriage certificate.

There are many older people who live their lives without ever getting married or getting married.

They can think whatever they want.

As long as he doesn't talk about her, Xia Zhizhi doesn't care about anything else.

She gave the clothes she brought back to her nephews and nieces.

Little Wang Zhao is already in the last year of kindergarten and will be in the first grade next year.

This girl will grow up to look like her mother, with a pretty oval face, a high nose bridge and big eyes.

Xia Zhizhi brought her a lot of clothes.

Xia Qingqing took the clothes and tried them on her daughter one by one, saying, "She is so old, you don't need to buy so many clothes for her. She grows fast at this age, and she won't be able to wear them after a few times, which is a pity."
