Chapter 217 Everything Goes Smoothly
The exam was held at the only high school in Fengyang County.
There were quite a lot of people.
There were parents at the door, holding their children's hands and telling them to do well on the exam.
These days, it's rare to find a few college students in an entire county. Getting into a junior college is already quite an achievement, let alone a proper bachelor's degree.
If a family produces a college graduate, it's a source of great pride and a life-changing event. After graduation, they're guaranteed a job and housing. If they find a partner in a similar company, their future is secure, and their children will benefit as well.
Inside the textile factory.
Wang Yinhua is working in the workshop. As the group leader, she not only has to operate the sewing machine, but also solve problems within the group. Sometimes she's busy here and there, constantly moving back and forth.
However, it's not all work-related. When we're busy, we can still chat a bit, mostly about the people and things around us.
Sure enough, several of her workers were talking about their children taking the college entrance exam today.
"My son usually does well in his studies. His teacher said that with his abilities, he has a good chance of getting into university. Our whole family is counting on his abilities."
"I'm so envious. My son is not doing so well. He barely made it to high school, couldn't get into college, and has no job. My wife and I are discussing whether we should get him married sooner or find him a job, but these days jobs are hard to come by."
……
As Wang Yinhua passed by, she overheard several people whispering about their children taking the college entrance examination. She paused, suddenly thinking of her own daughter, and couldn't help but feel worried.
By now, Sui Sui should be in the exam room. I wonder how the exam went?
Xu Fei, the youngest son in the family, had been tutored by his son-in-law and barely managed to get into the affiliated middle school of the textile factory, which gave her a temporary sense of relief. Now, she just had to see how Sui Sui did on her exam.
I hope everything goes well.
Soon, the morning exam ended.
Xu Sui didn't go back to the Qin family. Instead, she took her food coupons and went to a state-run restaurant for a meal. After eating, she recalled the situation of reviewing her papers before handing them in today. Those questions were the ones she had highlighted for herself before, so there shouldn't be any major problems. She was pretty much set.
Then there's the afternoon, and tomorrow.
Before the exam results were released, Xu Sui did not dare to let her guard down. After finishing her meal, she went back to take the afternoon exam, and everything went smoothly in the afternoon as well.
After returning to the Qin family home that evening
Xu Sui still didn't tell the Qin family that she had gone to take the exam. No one in the Qin family took the college entrance exam, and they didn't inquire about the specific date of the exam.
Apart from Grandma Qin, who often went out for leisure, no one noticed what Xu Sui had been doing for two or three days in a row.
In the blink of an eye, the college entrance examination is over.
Next comes the wait for the admission notice, which is a long process, usually taking one or two months to get results, and sometimes even longer, given the inconvenience of transportation in those days.
Xu Sui only told Wang Yinhua and Qin Yunzhou about this.
After the college entrance examination was completely over, Wang Yinhua was afraid of putting pressure on her daughter, so she didn't dare to ask too much about the exam. However, based on her understanding of her daughter, she should have a good chance of getting into a university in Beijing.
The thought of having a college student in the family, and that this student being her own daughter, even before the acceptance letter arrived, already filled Wang Yinhua with joy. She even considered throwing a small party to celebrate once her daughter received the letter.
"Mom, what are you laughing at here?" Xu Fei, who was playing with his nephew, suddenly noticed Wang Yinhua sitting on a chair sewing shoe soles, and then suddenly started laughing at herself.
He couldn't help but abandon Jinbao and run over to ask.
Wang Yinhua was furious. She slapped him on the forehead and said, "What are you saying, you brat? All you do all day is play, play, play. If you had even a fraction of your sister's skills, I wouldn't have to worry about you so much."
"If it weren't for your brother-in-law, someone like you would be lucky to even have an elementary school diploma."
Xu Fei clutched his head where he had been hit and quickly tried to dodge, crying, "Ouch, ouch, ouch! Mom, please stop hitting me, it hurts!"
"I wish I were as smart as my sister, but who told you and Dad to give me a brain like this? How can you blame me? You should blame yourselves for not giving me a smart one."
"It's not like I wanted to be this stupid."
Upon hearing this, Wang Yinhua became even angrier and pulled the person over to hit her twice more.
"You still have the nerve to talk? You're always going astray, spending all your time in the black market. Let me tell you, there are some things you shouldn't touch. That's not a place for someone your age."
This eleven or twelve-year-old boy is completely unruly and acts like a little rascal. He's so annoying!
Neither of her two sons was easy for her to handle.
Xu Fei quickly dodged, "Okay, Mom, stop hitting me, stop hitting me. I know I was wrong. I will never go to those places I shouldn't go to again."
He passed the entrance exam for junior high school, and his sister finished her postpartum confinement. He needed to find her to fulfill his promise, and since it was summer vacation, he had plenty of time.
the other side.
After the college entrance examination, Xu Sui sold her job for a total of 1,000 yuan. Li Chunhua, who had previously wanted to buy the job for 700 or 800 yuan, came to her door several times after hearing the news.
However, it was no use coming to her. Xu Sui had already gone through all the procedures with someone else and had received the thousand yuan. There was no room for regret. Li Chunhua originally thought that Xu Sui was young and easy to bully, and that she was an acquaintance, so she wanted to negotiate the price, since it was not a small amount.
To her surprise, the person simply turned and left without saying another word to her, and soon the job was sold to someone else.
After her family found out about this, they all blamed her. They were so angry that they ignored her for more than half a month, thinking they had finally gotten a daughter who would have an office job.
When Xu Fei ran to the Qin family.
Xu Sui had just deposited 1,000 yuan into her savings account when she returned from outside.
As soon as I got home, I saw my younger brother, Xu Fei, in front of the cradle, playing with the two children with a rattle.
You have to admit, he's got a knack for entertaining kids. Both children were lying in their cradles, laughing as they watched the rattle-drum, while Du Mei sewed clothes and watched the children from the side.
"Sister, sister, you're finally back."
"I've done what you promised me last time. When are you going to teach me?" Xu Fei's eyes lit up as soon as he saw Xu Sui return. He immediately put down the rattle and ran over.
Xu Sui hadn't forgotten about this, of course. She smiled and ruffled Xu Fei's hair. "Okay, I'll teach you."
"You wait here for a bit, I'll go back inside to get something."
After saying that, she went into the room, took out several basic mechanical structure introductions from the bottom of the cabinet, as well as some introductory mechanical books and some of her own notes, and put them in Xu Fei's hands.
"Don't be fooled by the fact that repairing something seems simple; there are actually quite a few things involved in the design. If you want to learn it, you must first lay a solid foundation."
"These are some of the most basic introductory courses. You have to study them carefully. After you finish junior high school, if you are still interested in this field, you can take the entrance exam for a vocational school specializing in mechanical engineering. After graduation, you can work as a technician in a machine factory."
"The technician's monthly salary is not low, it's even higher than Mom's."
