Wearing books in the 70s: the delicate educated youth have material space

Chapter 112

After catching up with old friends and talking about daily life, Cheng Xu patiently waited for the resumption of the college entrance examination after seeing off her family for another year.

After waking up, she just held a book and read. Cheng Ran, who stayed at home to build a house, couldn't understand her anymore.

"Do you want to go to the Workers', Peasants' and Soldiers' University?"

She held the book and said, "I don't want to."

Cheng Ran: "You study so seriously just to learn knowledge?"

"Live and learn until you are old. Brother, you have to practice the habit of learning knowledge throughout your life, so that you will not be eliminated by society." How could she say that the college entrance examination was about to start? She could only use things around her as examples: "Look, Han Chen is a highly educated person, and my sister-in-law-to-be is also a highly educated person. Sibo went to a better high school than the two of us. We are the ones at the bottom of the family in education. If we don’t improve ourselves, our status will easily become lower in the future."

This was the truth, but Cheng Ran always felt something was wrong. His brother-in-law, Han Chen, trusted Xu Xu to be at the top, and Xu Xu had directly climbed to the top of the family by relying on her good cooking skills. To say that he was the only one with a lower status. None other than.

Cheng Xu's study did not consist of three days of fishing and two days of drying the web. In addition to going to the propaganda office every month to paint, she would go home and study. Sometimes when people in the village passed by her house, they would see her reading in the yard with the door open. .

In September of the same year, the central government held a meeting in Beijing and officially announced in October that the college entrance examination would be resumed!

The document was distributed to various cities, and the enrollment targets for the resumption of the college entrance examination are workers and farmers, educated young people who have gone to the mountains and countryside or returned to their hometowns, demobilized soldiers, cadres, and fresh high school graduates.

When the news came out, there was an uproar.

The Liujia Village Educated Youth Center was in chaos.

When the college entrance examination resumes, they can take the exam and return to the city. Everyone has been away from school for many years and has forgotten all the knowledge, let alone not having a book around them.

The most urgent task is for them to pick up the books again and start learning.

"Have you bought the book?" someone asked.

People who bought the book looked wary, while those who didn't bought the book looked at who had bought the book. It was obvious at a glance what they were thinking, but now one more person taking the exam means one more competitor, and no one wanted to talk.

"There are no books in the town now. It has been several days since the news about the opening of the college entrance examination reached us. There are many students in the town, and everyone has already bought them. It is our turn."

"If you go to town to look for books, it's better to borrow books from Cheng Xu."

Cheng Xu has been studying since the beginning of this year. Occasionally, you can see her studying hard when passing by. At first, everyone said that this person would have nothing to do if she didn't work, but it turns out that she was prescient.

Some people couldn't help but wonder: "Tell me, did she know that the college entrance examination would be resumed this year?" Otherwise, Cheng Xu had never seen her love reading so much before.

Someone once asked her why she suddenly started reading. Cheng Xu replied that her younger brother at home had knowledge but was too embarrassed to ask the teacher at school. As a sister, she couldn't bear that her younger brother couldn't learn knowledge well, so she learned and taught her younger brother by herself.

"It's impossible. She started learning at the beginning of the year. It's been more than half a year. How could she know so far in advance? She's not a prophet."

Some people didn't believe that she could know in advance, and just thought that she was lucky and a blind cat met a dead mouse.

"She has been studying for so long, we should be able to borrow books."

Someone went to Cheng Xu with the intention of giving it a try.

"You want to borrow a book!"

Cheng Xu lazily leaned against the door and asked the girl opposite. The man was very nervous and kept looking at her, fearing that she would not agree.

"I don't have any extra books."

The expressions of the female educated youth can be seen at a glance, ranging from nervousness to disappointment.

Since there was no chance, she could only think of other ways. As she turned to leave, she heard the people behind her talking.

"There are still two months until the college entrance examination. Although I don't have any extra books to lend you, you can take a copy and see if you are willing."

The female educated youth did not expect that there would be a turn for the better: "Yes, yes, thank you Cheng Xu, thank you for being willing to help me." She kept bowing to Cheng Xu to thank her for her willingness to help.

Copying books also allowed her to memorize knowledge points. She immediately asked the village chief for leave and went to the town to buy a book and copy the books.

The female educated youth ran very fast. Cheng Xu smiled softly. She continued to study, and the knowledge points in the book were already familiar to her. Han Chen also taught her small things every week. It can be said that she was confident in this college entrance examination. Get into college.

As for top schools, she doesn't want to go to them. She still has a very clear self-awareness.

Letting this person copy books is to provide an idea for these people with limited brains. Although she doesn't like some people in the Educated Youth Institute, she can also lend a hand to others who have no enmity or enmity with her.

If you are a good person, these are all resources.

The female educated youth's behavior of copying books made other people who couldn't buy books know what to do. They copied the books by changing the books and copying them by midnight. Those who returned the books after half a month all yawned and thanked Cheng Xu.

The whole family knew that Cheng Xu was going to take the college entrance examination. Han Chen had research in hand and couldn't leave, so he asked his sister-in-law He Yueyue to accompany Cheng Xu.

He Yueyue and Cheng Ran held a wedding banquet in May, found out they were pregnant in August, and are now four months pregnant.

After knowing that He Yueyue was pregnant, Cheng Ran didn't want He Yueyue to go to work. He was worried that He Yueyue would forget to eat at work and be obsessed with research. He had also been to the research institute. When he saw the researcher dragged to the cafeteria by his assistant, Cheng Ran was afraid that He Yueyue was one of them.

She knew what was going on with her body, and He Yueyue didn't agree to take a vacation. She didn't take a vacation until she finished handling the matters at hand. However, no one could take care of her when she went to the city. Her parents-in-law and husband both went to work, and her parents were next door. City, after much deliberation, He Yueyue returned to Liujia Village.

Cheng Xu and He Yueyue take care of each other.

"Sister-in-law, don't go when I'm going to take the exam. What will you do if the car is crowded with people?" The exam place is in the county. Cheng Xu has to find a place to live in advance. He Yueyue is worried and wants to go with her. .

Cheng Xu was worried. There were so many people going to the county at this time, what if her nephews and nieces were crowded.

He Yueyue was even more worried about Cheng Xu: "No, I don't have a big belly. I'm even more worried about you going to the county alone. What if there are bad people where you live."

Since marrying Cheng Ran, He Yueyue has been promoted. She used to treat Cheng Xu as a friend, but now she treats her as a child, and she doesn't feel at ease anywhere.

"It will be fine. Don't worry. I wrote to Sibo and asked him to come back and accompany me. He will be waiting for me at the station today." Sibo's school will be used as the college entrance examination venue, so he got a few days off. Cheng Xu had already agreed with him that he would come back to accompany her in the exam.

He Yueyue felt relieved when things like this happened in the town: "Okay, then I won't follow you. Do you have enough money? I'll get it for you." She touched her pocket to get money for Cheng Xu.

Cheng Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Sister-in-law, I'm such an old man and married. Han Chen's salary is all mine. He can't live without me, so just put your mind at ease and wait for me to go home after the exam."

"I called Sister-in-law Yang to come home these days and asked her to stay with you. Don't be embarrassed to talk about your problems. I gave her something to help." Cheng Xu didn't know what discomfort his sister-in-law had after being pregnant. , because He Yueyue came back not long ago, and he was afraid that something might happen to the pregnant woman alone at home, so Cheng Xu asked Sister-in-law Yang to help.

He Yueyue: "I understand. Bring your things, Bi, and don't forget to bring your admission ticket."

Cheng Xu had already packed up, and Sister-in-law Yang also came to the house when she left. She went to the county with confidence, and saw Sibo when she got off the car.
