Chapter 229 Notice
Not only the commune where Ku Shui Village is located, but all parts of the country are now paying attention to the issue of the college entrance examination. The college entrance examination admission notices have been sent from the school to all parts of the country through the post office. The journey is long and the delivery time is slow. Some notices even have to take more than a week on the road, and very few can be delivered directly to the admitted candidates. Most of them are sent to the village team or commune school and then handed over.
Some people were working in the fields when the notice arrived.
Some are training in the army, some are working on factory assembly lines, and some are feeding their children at home.
Another ten days passed. Two of the people in the town who took the college entrance examination received notification letters. They were both educated youth who had gone to the countryside. The rest had not received them yet, so it was estimated that there was not much hope.
Erhe also didn't receive it.
In the first few days, Wang Xiu would often ask about the notice, but later he stopped mentioning it for fear that Erhe would think too much.
Erhe actually has a good mentality. If she didn't pass the exam, she didn't pass it. Her skills are not as good as others, but it also shows from another perspective that there are still many excellent people.
There are some regrets, for example, she cannot go to Beijing, and then face the possibility of separation from He Zheng.
But it doesn't matter. If she is sure that she failed the exam, she can go to the capital with other reasons. There will always be a chance.
On this day, Erhe and Zou Zhou were studying spring shirts, while Wang Xiu and Su's mother were busy hatching chicks. That's how it is in the countryside, there is always work to do all year round, whether in the fields or at home.
"Erhe——"
When Erhe first heard Liang Wenwen's voice, she thought she was hallucinating. That was not the case. Liang Wenwen was in the provincial capital and had not sent a telegram to say she was coming over. How could she suddenly hear her voice? Erhe did not take it seriously until she heard another voice from outside, "Erhe,"
"grandmother?"
Erhe recognized the voice, put down her things and walked out. It was Aunt Nie and Liang Wenwen who came into the yard.
Liang Wenwen was wearing a light blue sweater and standing in the yard, looking pretty. She had a cloth bag slung over her body and was holding an army green luggage bag in her hand, smiling at her.
"Erhe, I'm here to see you!"
Liang Wenwen did not send a telegram to Erhe in advance this time. When she arrived in the county town, she went to find Aunt Nie according to the address and asked Aunt Nie to accompany her.
The weather was getting warmer, and the two of them were feeling quite warm as they walked.
Erhe was also very happy. "You two... didn't even tell me you were coming. Grandma, are you tired from walking?"
"Not tired, not tired. It's nice to chat and laugh with Wenwen."
"Come in and sit down."
Erhe led the people into the house. Zou Zhou had already heard the noise and said to Erhe, "I'll go make some tea and some snacks for you. How about egg vermicelli?"
Aunt Nie and Liang Wenwen both said there was no need to rush, and Zou Zhou had already gone into the kitchen.
Now that Erhe is pregnant, Zou Zhou helps with some of the manual work that he can do.
Erhe also told Zou Zhou not to do these things, but Zou Zhou always said that Erhe helped her and what she did was nothing.
Erhe could only follow her.
"Erhe," she came back to her senses and found Liang Wenwen looking at her with a smile. Erhe felt strange being stared at by her. She looked at Aunt Nie beside her. She was also looking at her with a face full of love and a little pride. Erhe couldn't help but reach out and touch her face, "Grandma, Wenwen, why are you looking at me like that?"
"Of course...thump thump thump—"
Under Liang Wenwen's manual dubbing, she solemnly opened the cloth bag on her body, took out something wrapped in red cloth from it, and untied it.
"Erhe, congratulations, you've been admitted to Beijing University of Technology."
When Liang Wenwen opened the cloth bag, she guessed that there might be an admission letter inside for her. If it wasn't for this, Liang Wenwen wouldn't have made the trip in person.
But what is Capital University of Technology?
Erhe was a little confused.
"Come quickly and get your admission letter." Liang Wenwen handed over the letter with both hands.
Erhe took it. At this time, the notice was just a thin piece of paper, but the font on it was still very beautiful. Erhe stared at the words "Beijing University of Technology" for a long time.
"Erhe, why are you unhappy?"
"To be honest, I'm quite happy, but why don't I remember applying to the University of Technology? Did I become stupid because of pregnancy?"
She is a girl studying at an industrial university?
And he's also a science idiot.
"Well," Liang Wenwen couldn't find a better explanation, "the school wouldn't make a mistake. Maybe you really made a mistake when filling it out."
"Okay, I've got a university to go to anyway." Erhe's brain was struggling to think. Perhaps it was because of her pregnancy that she felt lazy and didn't want to think about anything too demanding. She read the admission letter again and again, then placed it on the table. Of course, she didn't forget to check on her good friend. "Wenwen, what about you? Let me guess. Did you make it to Huaqing University?"
"Yes," Liang Wenwen nodded heavily, "I also received the admission letter to Huaqing University. My dream has come true. I am finally going to study in Beijing."
Besides being happy, Liang Wenwen is full of anticipation for her future university life and a desire to absorb more knowledge.
"Congratulations to you, little talent! You are truly amazing!"
Huaqing University. It is no exaggeration to say that in the era when she lived, even with the efforts of the entire province, there would not be many students who could be admitted to Huaqing University in a year. Liang Wenwen was admitted to Huaqing, which means she was at least among the top few in the province, and maybe even the top scorer. It's a pity that the scores of this college entrance examination were not announced.
Both of them were very happy. Aunt Nie was also happy, saying that the He family had never had a college student.
At this time, Zou Zhou had cooked the egg vermicelli and brought it out. Wang Xiu and Su's mother had just finished their work and came to the front.
"I was wondering why the house was so lively. It turns out that my in-laws' grandmother and Wenwen came over. Now that you're here, don't leave. Stay at home for a few days."
"Aunt, I thought the same thing. I'll stay a few more days this time. I'm sorry to trouble you." Liang Wenwen smiled sweetly.
"What's there to be embarrassed about? Feel free to stay here." Wang Xiu said, glancing at a piece of paper on the table. Unsure if it was something important, she didn't touch it. "What is this?"
Liang Wenwen smiled and didn't respond. Of course, Erhe had to talk about this matter herself.
Erhe said she received encouragement from her friends, "Mom, this is my admission letter. I was admitted to Beijing University of Technology."
"real?!!"
Wang Xiu's eyes widened, and she danced with excitement. She almost rushed over to hug Erhe, but thought of her current health and quickly stopped herself. "Buddha bless you, Buddha bless you, I can't hold it in any longer. I have to tell Lao He the good news right away. You guys sit down, I'll be back soon!"
His happiness was so obvious that he disappeared without a trace after saying it.
Everyone was laughing, and Su's mother also looked at Erhe, "I knew you were smart, you're amazing."
Erhe smiled modestly.
Su's mother thought of something and looked at Liang Wenwen. "You came from the provincial capital. I heard from Wang Xiu that you and Su Chuan also know each other. It is said that he also took the college entrance examination. So which university did he get into?"
No matter what, Su Chuan is the son of the Su family, and Su's mother hopes that he can live a good life outside.
