Back To Qiqi Farming To Raise Children

  Chapter 55 Resuming the College Entrance Examination

  Xu Shiyan took his daughter-in-law to Qianchuan to watch the parade, and happened to miss a big event.

  On October 21st, the superiors announced a policy that the college entrance examination will resume this year, and all candidates who meet the requirements can take the exam.

   Once the news was announced, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

  Especially the educated youths who have been sent to the countryside, many of them are preoccupied with thinking about applying for the exam.

  Xue Xiulin and Wei Mingrong on the Xu family's side were educated youths sent to the countryside.

  However, both of them graduated from junior high school, and they didn't study well at the beginning, and now they are both married and have children. Even after knowing the news, they didn't think about signing up.

   Xu Shixiang, on the other hand, immediately expressed his desire to sign up after hearing the news.

  Xu Shixiang has graduated from high school for several years, and has been unwilling to work in the agricultural team to earn work points. He finally had this opportunity, so he naturally couldn't miss it.

  If he let go of his previous temper, Xu Chenghou would probably curse again when he heard that the fifth child was going to take the college entrance examination.

  This year's college entrance examination is at the beginning of December, and the time is very tight. Xu Shixiang must start reviewing immediately if he wants to take the exam.

   You must know that Xu Shixiang is still very popular in the team, and he earns a lot of work points.

   Xu Chenghou felt very distressed when he thought that his son would not be able to earn work points while preparing for the exam.

  But since the third son was arguing about the separation of the family, and the younger couple went out to live alone, life is getting better and better. Xu Chenghou reflected on himself when he had nothing to do.

  The more I think about it, the more I feel that he may be old, and his thoughts and vision cannot keep up.

  So this time when the fifth child said he was going to take the college entrance examination, Xu Chenghou just sat there smoking for a long time without saying a word.

  Xu Chenghou didn't speak, and the rest of the family couldn't speak rashly, but Xue Xiulin and Wei Mingrong's sister-in-law didn't like it.

   There are a dozen or so members of the Xu family living together, and there are only a few men who can earn work points. If Xu Shixiang signs up for the college entrance examination, he will have one less labor force.

  The sister-in-law wanted to talk, but didn't dare, so they reached out and poked their respective men.

   Both Xu Shixian and Xu Shian knew what their daughter-in-law wanted to do, but they couldn't say it directly, so they could only wink at their respective daughter-in-laws.

   "Okay, you all don't have to frown and fix those things, I'm not too old and dizzy to see clearly."

   Zhou Guilan has been in charge of the family for so many years, how can she not guess what her son and daughter-in-law are thinking? Speak immediately.

   "The fifth child signed up for the college entrance examination, I agree, this is an opportunity, a rare good opportunity."

   Although Zhou Guilan is illiterate, she is very knowledgeable, much better than the average rural old lady.

   "If you can really pass the exam and go to university, you will be a person on public food in the future, and you will no longer be a mud leg.

  Being able to leave the countryside, without having to work in the fields all day long, and sit in an office to receive wages, is a good thing that others can only dream of. "

   "Old five, you go to the commune tomorrow morning to ask for the registration form, and then tell your Uncle Zhao, and then go home and read the book to review.

   Work hard, if you can be admitted to university, our old Xu family can be regarded as a glorious ancestor. "

   The real master of the Xu family is Zhou Guilan, and the old lady said that this matter is considered a certainty.

   "You guys, you don't have to feel that you are at a disadvantage.

  I said before that when the fourth child gets married, we will separate and live separately in the spring of next year. "

   Without waiting for the daughter-in-laws to make a fuss, Zhou Guilan directly spoke clearly. Now, the two daughters-in-law lost their temper.

  Xu Shiyan on the mountain didn't know what happened at home. Even if he knew about the resumption of the college entrance examination, he didn't have the heart to take the exam.

  At this moment, he is on the mountain, guarding the stove pit to burn walnut pine cones for Su Anying.

  In the afternoon, when Xu Shiyan was digging traps and shooting guns outside the venue, he picked up some walnuts and shot a few pine cones.

   This is the best thing about the mountain, it is far away from the village, there are few people coming, and there are many kinds of mountain products.

  Su Anying is pregnant, and it is said that pregnant women eating more nuts is good for their children.

  So when cooking just now, Xu Shiyan buried two pine cones in the stove pit, pulled out the pine cones after they were cooked, and the charcoal in the stove pit was quite prosperous.

  So Xu Shiyan grabbed a large number of hickory nuts, dipped the front tip in cold water, and inserted them vertically into the charcoal fire.

   After a while, you can hear a snap, and the front tip of the walnut splits.

  When the pine cone is cooked, put it upright, lift your foot and kick hard, the pine nuts inside will burst out, and use your hands to pick the rest to find it.

  One big pine cone can produce almost two taels of pine nuts, and two pine cones are enough for Su Anying to kowtow all night.

  Fresh pine nuts are sweet and fragrant when they are cooked, and they are more delicious than dry and fried ones.

  Su Anying held a pair of pliers in her hand, pinched them open one by one, and pulled out the pine nuts inside and piled them together.

   While Xu Shiyan was not paying attention, he stuffed it into his mouth.

   "I won't eat it, you can just eat it." Xu Shiyan froze for a moment, then laughed.

   "Eating it is good for your health, especially for your children. It is said that eating more nuts will make your children brighter and smarter."

  He has no desire for snacks, he eats when he has it, and forgets if he doesn’t.

  For him now, nothing is as important as Su Anying and the child in her belly.

   "There are so many, and you even burned walnuts. This way of eating, I guess I will be a ball before the baby is born."

  Su Anying looked at her slightly protruding belly. It's only been a few months, and she feels like she's gained weight several times.

   "It's okay, even if it becomes a ball, it will be the most beautiful one."

  Xu Shiyan smiled, picked out a walnut from the stove pit, picked up a knife and chopped it down along the opening, just in time to split the walnut in half.

   "Get an awl, pick the walnuts yourself, and I'll go out for a walk."

  After all the walnuts were split open, Xu Shiyan got up and went out for a walk with a gun on his back.

  The site of the big house is not big, and with the newly planted mallet field in autumn, it is only about two thousand feet long.

  In this year, the roads in the ground are wide, so after conversion, it is about fifty or sixty acres of land.

  Xu Shiyan carried a gun on his back, and held a flashlight in one hand, strolling around the field, shaking the grass outside with the flashlight from time to time, and then checking whether the sticks clamped around him were damaged.

   In the evening, you have to go for a walk, basically you have to go around the venue and some main places inside.

   Especially those places that are more convenient for people to come in, or where there are tall trees that can hide people, you have to check carefully.

   Avoid someone sneaking into the ginseng field and stealing ginseng in the middle of the night.

  Although Xu Shiyan set up various traps around the venue, he didn't dare to be careless. He wandered around wherever he should go.

  If he lost the mallet in his hand, it would be a shame.

  Xu Shiyan wandered around the venue for half a circle, everything was normal. Xu Shiyan was relieved, and walked back around the other side.

  Just as he wandered to the southeast corner of the venue, he suddenly heard a bang, followed by a hog-killing howl.

   It was the ground gun that rang out. Hearing the sound, the wild boar should have been wounded.

  Xu Shiyan was shocked, and immediately ran towards the place where the gun was fired with a gun in his hand.
