In October, good news came from above.
The "Four" Gang was shattered.
It also marked the end of the 10-year "Cultural Revolution".
The whole country was in a frenzy because of this great news.
The whole country is celebrating.
Even Shanghe Village, far away in the northeast, is no exception.
The villagers, including the educated youth, all happily announced the good news to each other.
After ten years, the haze that had hung over everyone in the country disappeared.
During these ten years, everyone saw what those people did. Although many people chose to protect themselves when they were in power and did not dare to refute anything, everyone has a scale in their heart. Everyone knows what is right and what is wrong, but they just don't dare to express it.
After all, everyone has family and relatives.
Many people have been retaliated against for speaking out for justice.
Therefore, many people choose to remain silent in order to protect themselves and their families.
And now, those guys are down, that’s great!
Among them, the educated youth who went to the countryside were particularly excited!
Because the educated youth all thought that the Cultural Revolution was over, then there was hope for them to return to the city, right?
Who doesn't want to go home?
In this strange place far away from home and relatives, they don’t even dare to get sick!
Because other educated youth also had to go to work or do jobs in order to fill their stomachs!
Who has the time to take care of a sick person like you?
It’s great that they can kindly give you the first glass of water when you are sick, and add a bowl of rice for you when you eat!
When there is not enough food to eat or money to see a doctor, you can't find anyone to borrow money from. After all, you are surrounded by a group of poor educated youth who have no money!
Therefore, going home has always been the greatest wish of the educated youth!
Now that the Cultural Revolution that lasted for ten years has finally ended, their wish to return home should no longer be fulfilled!
All the educated youth had high expectations for this idea, but the reality was not as they wished.
The reality is that even though the Cultural Revolution ended, the Up to the Countryside Movement did not stop, and more educated youth were still being arranged to go to the countryside.
The old educated youth wanted to go back to the city, but they couldn’t; the new educated youth didn’t want to go to the countryside, but they couldn’t either. For a while, the entire group of educated youth was upset!
Xu Nanxing knew that the movement of sending educated youth to the countryside would continue for another two years before it would stop.
It is probably impossible for the educated youth who have no connections to return to the city now to do so.
The most recent way that will allow many educated youth to return to the city through legal channels is the first college entrance examination to be resumed next year!
One more year!
During this period of time, Xu Nanxing has been reading books and doing exercises diligently to prepare for the college entrance examination!
However, she also knew that there was something wrong with her background. Although there would be no requirements for candidates to register for the college entrance examination that would be resumed next year, Xu Nanxing could still register for the college entrance examination at that time.
However, it’s different when the admission letters are issued!
At that time, it’s not just your test scores that count; political review is also a very important criterion.
When I watched "The Great River" that year, the protagonist Song Yunhui and his sister Song Yunping had to choose one of them to go to college because of their poor family background. Even though they both got into college, they had to choose one of them because of this reason.
Therefore, Xu Nanxing did not put all her energy on the domestic college entrance examination. She also set her sights on the American college entrance examination, which is the SAT.
And Hong Kong is one of the SAT test centers!
