Yu Sui just got on her bike and went out.
She first went to the post office, called the brigade in her hometown, and asked Secretary Zou to help call Yu Hemiao to answer the phone.
Because the calling process would take at least half an hour, Yu Sui agreed to call again after half an hour.
I foolishly waited at the post office for another half an hour, and finally heard Yu Hemiao's voice.
Yu Sui: "Sister, you should all know about the resumption of the college entrance examination. My school will definitely sign up. What about you? Have you signed up yet?"
Yu Hemiao just asked excitedly, "Second sister, we received the letter you wrote last time. Mom and Dad were so happy to know you gave birth to a son. They asked me to send you a small quilt and a small cotton-padded jacket. They were specially made by a cotton craftsman. Did you receive it?"
Yu Sui: "Sister, the little quilt and the little cotton-padded jacket are not important to me at all. I called you long distance specifically because I care about your future. Please tell me first, have you signed up?"
Yu Hemiao stammered, "... Mom wouldn't let me register. She said I'm already sixteen and have children, and that we have so much land at home..."
Hey, these people have no foresight at all!
Yu Sui was so angry that she almost threw the phone away. Before Yu Hemiao could finish, she said angrily, "That's all nonsense! Tell your mother that I insisted you sign up. If she dares to stop you, I won't recognize her as your mother! Go sign up right now. The deadline should be coming soon, right? Go sign up as soon as you hang up the phone today!"
Yu Hemiao was soft-hearted and quickly agreed, "Okay, okay, don't be angry, Second Sister. I will definitely sign up right away."
Yu Sui: "After registering, I'll continue reviewing. Have you been studying hard since I left?"
"Yes. I do. Every time I wait for my mother to fall asleep, I read a book."
"That's right. No matter what others say, you have to have your own opinions. Your mother has her reasons, but that's not a long-term vision. Don't you know how to stick to what's right? This is the last time I'm going to tell you about the college entrance exam. You have to be determined and work hard. If you want to be a hopeless person, then no one can help you."
"Second sister, don't be angry. Why are you so angry? Did something happen?"
"Nothing. It's just that you're so stubborn and never change your mindset that it's annoying."
"I'm sorry, second sister, for making you worry. I... will try my best to change." Yu Hemiao admitted her mistake with a good attitude.
Yu Sui didn't say anything more: "That's it, hurry up and sign up, study hard, bye."
Yu Hemiao became worried: "Don't! Second sister, are you okay? Did Xia Linsheng help you after you gave birth? Was it too tiring?"
"It's okay. I can handle it myself. You should study hard. Also, I wrote you a list of colleges a while ago. It tells you how to fill out your application and which schools are most important to you. You should research it yourself. Don't take the saying that women hold up half the sky as empty talk. You have to work hard to have a good life. I'm rushing home to see the kids. That's all."
After saying that, Yu Sui hung up the phone.
She really missed her children, so she was anxious to finish her work and go home early.
When I go out, I seem to be full of courage, but once I really go out, I start to worry about my children. This is probably the nature of being a parent.
Yu Hemiao felt uncomfortable on the other end of the phone.
Her second sister cared about her so much and still worried about her after giving birth to a child. From now on, she must work hard and not let her second sister worry about her anymore.
The Yu Hemiao team borrowed bicycles and went to the village, took the bus, and went to the county town to sign up.
Because I didn't know where to report it, I asked a lot of people, took a lot of detours, and spent several days before I got it done.
By the time she got home, it was already dark.
Sun Yuying was busy on the stove, while Yu Lanlan was sitting behind the stove, lighting the fire.
Sun Yuying flew into a rage when she saw her come in: "Where have you been? There's no one in the fields, and no one at home. Fortunately, you still have Lanlan to help you take care of Xiaoye, otherwise the child would have starved to death!"
Yu Hemiao: "I went to the city to register for the college entrance examination."
"You! Didn't I tell you not to waste your money? How much does it cost to register? There's no way you'll get in!"
Yu Hemiao: "Mom, my second sister called and asked me to register. Mom, I have the review materials, and I was a good student when I was in school. Why do you think I can't pass?"
Sun Yuying rarely heard her gentle eldest daughter argue, so she immediately became angry: "How old are you? You are so old and you still don't listen to advice."
"How old? I'm still under the age limit for taking the exam! Mom, I must take the exam, and I must pass!"
"You! If you pass the exam, what will happen to the child?"
"If you're willing to help, just keep an eye on him. I'll be a government official after I graduate from university, and I'll give you whatever money you want for babysitting!"
"What if I don't want to?"
"If you don't want to, my second sister says she won't recognize an ignorant woman like you!"
"What, what, you, you, you guys..." Sun Yuying was so angry that she couldn't say anything for a moment. She picked up a rice spatula and wanted to hit Yu Hemiao: "How dare you say that to me? I'll beat you to death, you traitor!"
At this moment, little Yu Lanlan jumped out from behind the stove and stood in front of Yu Hemiao: "Grandma, don't hit my mother. My aunt said that my mother will definitely be admitted to university. Only if she is admitted to university will she have a future, we will have a future, and you will have someone to rely on!"
The child's little face was raised high, so anxious and brave.
Sun Yuying looked down, her eyes wide at first, and then she added to Yu Lanlan, "Grandma, let Mom take the exam. If Mom passes, I can take good care of my younger sister. I want Mom to take the exam. If Mom becomes a college student, she can also go out and see the world like my aunt. How wonderful it would be!"
Sun Yuying thought of her little daughter from the far north, and her anger gradually subsided: "Forget it, whatever you want, you are all traitors!"
This matter just passed like that.
Yu Hemiao, however, enjoyed the joy of successfully refuting the question for the first time.
It turns out that refuting something can really help you gain benefits.
She can still do this in the future.
As for Yu Sui, she went to the printing factory directly after leaving the post office.
The three girls were all dark-skinned but had tall frames. When they saw Yu Sui, they were very shy and avoided looking at her.
Especially the leader of the three, named Henu Qingge, his face would turn red every time he saw Yu Sui.
He seemed to want to say hello, raised his hand to his face, shook it, and then put it down helplessly.
Yu Sui nodded encouragingly at him: "He Nu, don't be nervous, just go about your business. I'll talk to Han Duomi about a few things and then I'll leave."
"...Okay, Director." Henu responded in a low voice and walked away. In the corner, the other two young men smiled at him enviously.
