Chapter 299 A Multitude of Horses Crossing a Single-Plank Bridge (Part 3)!
Yang Mingu stared at his son-in-law with wide eyes, thinking to himself, "Are you stupid?"
Luo Jianguo said:
“Dad, didn’t I tell you before that my problem will be solved soon? Maybe I can go back to Beijing in a year or two. Of course, I will definitely not abandon Wanqing and the children. I will take them with me. Now that Xiaoqing has the opportunity to go back to Beijing first, I think we should let her try. If she passes the exam, she will be a college student and can work in a government agency after graduation. That will definitely be better than her current situation.”
"Father, you should come live with us in Beijing too. The conditions there will definitely be better than here in northern Shaanxi."
Yang Min sighed and said:
"No matter how good things are outside, nothing beats home. Shaanxi may be poor, but our roots are here, and we can't leave. Alright, you two have made your own decision, so go ahead and do what you think is right."
Of course I'd love for my daughter to live in the city. If she could stay there, my precious granddaughter would definitely have a bright future. I may be reluctant to let her go, but her future is the most important thing.
The news of the resumption of the college entrance examination swept across the country like a raging tornado. The educated youth who had been working in the fields threw down their hoes and pickaxes, picked up books they had abandoned years ago, and began studying. Some even went home. Study materials became scarce, and Xinhua bookstores in county towns were packed. Those who couldn't get any had their families do everything they could to buy study materials and send them to them.
There's no need to worry about review materials in Wangjiagou. Luo Jianguo, now the brigade secretary, personally drove a donkey cart to the commune post office to bring back the review materials mailed from Beijing. The whole shelf was full. This was all arranged in advance by Yuemin, who was in the army and had Xiaobai handle the mailing from Beijing.
They were transported back to the educated youth settlement and distributed to everyone.
"Hurry up and take a look! Our review materials are the most comprehensive here, covering every subject, including past college entrance exam papers. If you don't understand something, ask Teacher Zheng and Teacher Jiang. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so cherish it!"
Like an elder, Luo Jianguo carefully gave instructions, then sat down to one side, skillfully rolled a cigarette, lit it, and leisurely began to smoke.
One educated youth said:
"Jianguo, why aren't you studying? Don't you want to take the exam anymore?"
"Of course I'll take the exam, but I'm only half-baked. I'll probably be one of the first to fall into the river, so I won't compete with everyone else. After all, I'm the Party Secretary, and I have to have a selfless spirit of dedication."
He has a good attitude; if he can't pass the exam, he can't pass it.
Everyone laughed. If you don't want to learn, you don't want to learn. Why do you have to make it sound so refined and unconventional?
Zheng Tong joked,
"Jianguo, if Wanqing gets into university and goes to a big city, what about you? Staying in this remote mountain village, aren't you afraid your wife will fall for someone else?"
"oops!"
Luo Jianguo took a couple of puffs, exhaled a thick cloud of smoke, and remained completely calm.
"Then we'll accept it. The highest level of love is letting go, understand, everyone? However, my wife probably won't. After all, I'm using my daughter to control my wife. She can run away, but she can't escape my control. She can't get out of my grasp."
"Hahaha……"
Everyone laughed again, "I say, Jianguo, you've learned quite a wide range of knowledge, going from the Three Kingdoms to Journey to the West."
"That's it, that's it!"
Yang Wanqing came over, her face slightly flushed, and slapped someone, looking annoyed.
"Stop smoking, study properly, don't try to slack off, hurry up."
"Okay, okay!" He quickly stubbed out his cigarette; he was now completely henpecked.
