"How about we each keep a list of honors and tell each other if we see anyone's name." Another educated youth who came with Xu Ning suggested.
"OK."
Soon, several people crowded towards different honor lists.
The waiting time is long and painful, especially when the answer is about to be announced, as if waiting for the verdict at any time, it is unsettling.
Chen Lishu walked back and forth, her clenched fingers even trembling slightly uncontrollably.
Due to academic issues in her previous life, she was unable to find a stable job for a long time after her divorce, and could only do the dirtiest and most tiring jobs. Having an academic degree became a deep desire in her heart.
Although academic qualifications are no longer so important to her in this life, she still hopes to fulfill her dream of going to college.
"Wang Tiegang, I saw your name!" Ding Chen's voice suddenly came from the crowd.
"Really? Where is it? Let me see." Wang Tiegang heard his name and immediately went to Ding Chen's side happily.
"Really, I really passed the exam!" he shouted excitedly.
At the beginning, the policy required aspiring young people to go to the mountains and countryside, and he became one of them. He only farmed the land every day. Seeing that his future was hopeless, the country suddenly announced the resumption of the college entrance examination. The only way out for them was to enter the university.
"Ding Chen, Sister Xu Ning, I saw your names!" Soon, Gu Xingping said loudly.
Chen Lishu paid close attention to the movements in the field. However, after a long time, she did not hear the sound of registration from them again, and her eyes gradually dimmed.
"Lishu, Lishu, I saw your name——"
Xu Ning carefully read the honor list in front of him from beginning to end, and finally saw the three words Chen Lishu in the last corner, and immediately shouted excitedly.
When Chen Lishu heard her name, her brain suddenly buzzed, and then there was a brief blank.
"Where is it? Let me see."
After reacting, she eagerly squeezed into the crowd to get to Xu Ning's side. She looked uncertainly at the honor list. When she saw the three words Chen Lishu in the direction of Xu Ning's finger, Chen Lishu grinned unconsciously.
She, she really passed the exam! "Lishu, where are you going?" Xu Ning watched her stare at the honor list for a while and suddenly turned around and ran away, chasing after her to ask.
"I'm going to call my lover."
When she knew she had passed the exam, she immediately wanted to share this joy with Gu Xingdong.
The phone rang for a long time and no one answered. Just as Chen Lishu was about to hang up, someone suddenly picked up the phone: "Hello?"
It wasn't Gu Xingdong's voice.
"Please find Battalion Commander Gu, I am his lover."
When Wu Zheng heard Chen Lishu's voice, he immediately said happily: "Brother and sister, I am Lao Wu."
"Brother Wu, is Xingdong here?"
"He has taken people out for training. He has not been in the camp for the past two days. Is there something urgent for you? Why don't you tell me first and I will tell him when he comes back."
Chen Lishu was slightly disappointed when she heard that Gu Xingdong was not there, but she quickly said with a smile: "It's nothing important, I won't disturb Brother Wu."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Lishu came out of the phone booth, followed by Gu Xingping and Xu Ning.
"Lishu, we are going back to the village, are you going back?" Xu Ning asked with a smile.
Now that they are admitted to college, they will definitely have to return to the city. Not only do they have to send good news to their families, but they also have a lot of things to pack.
Chen Lishu nodded: "I will go back to the village with you."
She also wanted to tell Li Xiulan and the others the good news about being admitted to college to make them happy.
So after the aunts and sisters separated from Ding Chen, they returned to Qingshan Village with Xu Ning and the others.
"Mom, my third sister-in-law has been admitted to college!"
As soon as she opened the door, Gu Xingping couldn't wait to report loudly.
"What? What did you say?"
Li Xiulana's hand shook at the sole of her shoe, and a drop of blood was immediately poked out of her finger. She didn't care about it, just put it in her mouth and sucked it, then quickly threw the thing in her hand and went to the kang.
When she saw Chen Lishu entering the door behind Gu Xingping, Li Xiulan quickly walked over and held her hand: "Lishu, is what Xingping said true? Have you really been admitted to college?"
Chen Lishu smiled and nodded: "Mom, it's true. We just checked the results in the city."
"Oh my god, that's a college student. There is smoke coming out of our old Gu family's ancestral grave, and there is a college student!"
Li Xiulan happily walked around in circles twice, then turned around and went back to the house, and started calling people in a series of voices: "Boss, second wife, you two, come out quickly, Lishu is admitted to college."
"Xiao Song, take your brothers and go outside to look for your fourth uncle and ask him to find your father and your father. He said there is an emergency at home. How can we collect food at this time..."
Chen Lishu looked at her busy figure and couldn't help but laugh.
"Mom, I'll go back to my parents' house first."
I must tell my in-laws about this good thing. Li Xiulan said repeatedly: "Go, go, remember to ask them to come to the house for dinner tonight."
Chen Lishu came out of home and went all the way to Chen's house. Chen Mandun and Wu Chunmei heard that she had been admitted to college. They were startled for a moment, and then they began to be happy for her.
When her younger sisters heard that she was admitted to college, they were happy but also full of yearning.
"Sister, when I grow up, I will also take the college entrance examination and go to university in Beijing." Chen Lifei said.
"I also want to go to school and earn money to sell meat for my mother." Chen Lijuan hugged Wu Chunmei's thigh and said with a raised face.
Wu Chunmei was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear.
"Do you know where you got admitted? When will the notice come out? When will school start?" Chen Mandun asked with concern.
"I don't know exactly where to take the test. I have to wait for the physical examination to ask for the score of the inquiry group. The notification will probably be delayed for a while. After the political review materials are submitted, they will need to be reviewed by the school." Chen Lishu patiently told everything she knew.
Tell the couple again.
…
The news that a college student was born in the village spread like wildfire, and almost everyone in the village heard about it.
It would be fine if she just passed the educated youth examination. After all, she is from the city and has nothing to do with them. But it is different now. Chen Lishu has been admitted to university, and she is a native of their village.
No matter what happens in the future, whether everyone can borrow the polish, but they are all people from their own village, and they always feel that their faces are honored.
Zhang Changhe and his wife stopped eating and hurried to the Gu family to congratulate them.
Those are real college students, who are equivalent to getting an iron job after receiving the notice. Whatever they do in the future will be controlled by the state, especially Chen Lishu is Zhang Xiaoju's sister-in-law, so she will definitely be able to help her to some extent in the future.
In the evening, the Gu family arranged eight dishes. In addition to the Gu family and the Chen family, there were also Zhang Changhe and his wife and Li Maocai and his wife in the front yard.
There was no room for a table, so another table was moved from Li's house.
