ger. We can discuss this later. Let us first receive the envoys!"Having been reminded by Zhang Zhang, everyone remembered that there were still envoys from the other two countries in the hall. Everyo...That day, all six of them gathered at Lianyi's home. They took out a complete set of mock exams for the National College Entrance Examination and each did their own subject they were good at. After finishing, they each copied thirty copies to prepare for the next day's exam.
The point where the Red Guards gathered was dark, leaving only Chen Jia Shu there to lick his wounds. His eyes grew increasingly sinister.
On the threshing floor that day, villagers spontaneously brought tables, chairs, and benches. Twenty or so kids, eighteen or nineteen years old, all high school graduates, came to test their abilities.
After it was confirmed that only these people would be taking the exam, Ripples organized the first language test. Twenty children took the test; some were confident and prepared, others looked anxious and struggled, and some even gave up halfway through and left.
The first round is over, only ten children finished the entire test. Next is the math exam organized by Jian Guo Qian, and Ripples will be grading the papers on the spot.
The exam continued until dinner time. Only five children persisted to the very last session, and their scores were tallied and announced immediately after the final physics test ended.
"You five, give it your all in the remaining three months, there might be a chance. Come to the educated youth point tomorrow to review together."
Qian Jianguo waved his hand and said directly.
These five children, who had attended high school for a year or two, were thrilled by this opportunity. They flushed with excitement and cheered loudly, rushing to their parents to seek praise. The parents' eyes sparkled with smiles as well.
Zhao Fengshou was also very pleased. Originally, he thought it would be good to have one or two, but now there were five, exceeding his expectations. Moreover, the young intellectuals were easy to teach and considered a good outcome.
Then Qian Jianguo privately found the captain and suggested that Chen Jia Shu move out of the educated youth point. His reasons were very sound: they wouldn't disturb each other, and if the children fell behind in their studies, they could stay at the educated youth point. Out of five children, there were four boys and one girl. If they all stayed, it would indeed be a bit cramped.
Zhao Fengshou readily agreed, saying he would make arrangements. The next afternoon, he had Chen JiaShu move to a small house next to the warehouse, which was just right for helping look after the warehouse. He also gave him two extra work points. Chen JiaShu, though unwilling, could only leave the educated youth point.
Over the next three months, everyone threw themselves into a tense sprint. They only worked half days because they were all preparing for the entrance exam. They only relaxed for two days after taking the exam.
Once the preliminary exam results were out, the five young people from the Zhiqing point and the couple from Lianyi, along with the two children who participated in the guidance program, all passed. The village was filled with joy. Although passing the preliminary exam wasn't a guarantee of admission, it was a stepping stone to entering university. Therefore, everyone celebrated.
The only one who seemed unhappy was probably Chan Ka-shui. He had almost smashed everything in the small house that could be smashed.
Although the mock exam was passed, the upcoming official exam is the real test. The young intellectuals immediately adjusted their mindset and, based on their mock exam scores, started to identify and fill in their gaps, striving to improve their scores for the official exam.
The two boys who passed the exam went straight to live at the educated youth point. They had walked ninety-nine steps, just one step away, they had to give it a shot. Besides, there were many review materials at the educated youth point, and they could still look at them for a while in the evening.
Both parents of the two children readily agreed with both hands and feet, even taking on all the cooking so their children could eat well and free up the time for the young intellectuals to give their own children more guidance.
Qian Jian Guo and they didn't refuse either, it was the final sprint moment, they were all doing practice questions made by ripples, wishing there could be forty-eight hours in a day so they could squeeze out more time, naturally, that would be the best.
And at this moment, Chen Jia Shu sat in the small house, holding the medicine powder bag in his hand, his eyes gloomy as he looked towards the direction of the educated youth point.
The day before the exam, little Zhao Guoqing knocked on Lianyi's family door.
Zhao Jingcheng opened the door and was a little surprised to see Zhao Guoqing.
"I came to look for Wu Zhiqing."
Zhao Guoping raised his head and said.
"Come in!"
He immediately led the young boy into the house. Everyone was doing homework, and upon seeing that it was the former captain's son, they put down their pens and prepared to go for a walk in the yard, making room for the couple to entertain guests.
"None of you leave, when National Day comes, come find me to talk about things, you all listen."
Ripples dropped the pen from his hand, turned his somewhat stiff neck, and said directly.
Everyone was taken aback and immediately turned their attention to Guoqing.
National Day, you say!
During the National Day celebration, some people looked a bit nervous. He swallowed nervously before speaking.
"Wu Zhiqing, I've been watching Chen Zhiqing in the warehouse as you said. He hasn't gone out much lately, just working in the warehouse. He clocks in and out on time, but today he asked someone to go to town to buy a bag of rat poison. He said there are rats in the warehouse, chewing on everything."
"Did you hear me"
"Listen carefully, he told Zhao the accountant,"
Have you bought the rat poison back yet
"It's back, brought by Uncle Zhao Wu. He just waited until after work, and I didn't see him putting medicine in the storage room."
"Alright, I understand! You should go home now!"
Ripple finished speaking and took out a palm-sized bag of bunny candies from behind the cabinet, stuffing them all into Zhao Guoqing's hands.
Zhao Guoqing was a little surprised and a little unexpected, he looked up and asked Lianyi:
"All this for me"
"Here you go, take it back to Aunt Zhao and have her give you one every day. Don't eat too many though, or your teeth will get cavities."
Ripple smiled and instructed.
"Thank you, sister-in-law!"
Zhao Guoqing immediately tucked the bag of candy into his pocket and excitedly left the courtyard.
Not until the door closed again did Wang Xiufen speak with a displeased expression:
"Chen Jia Shu won't be up to his old tricks again, will he"
"That despicable villain, he's plotting something sinister. Get ready to be screwed over."
Zhang Qiang clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying.
"He's not brave enough to poison us, is he"
Zheng Xinyu frowned and said.
"Who knows! If it doesn't kill us, it will definitely prevent us from taking the exam tomorrow smoothly!"
Sun Sheng frowned and said.
"Now he hasn't done anything, all of this is just speculation, there's no evidence, it's just a stir up, we are not in the right either, and it wastes our energy."
Jian Guo Qian spoke directly.
Have you all prepared your admission tickets and exam supplies Put them with me. Go home early tonight and get some rest. Come to my place tomorrow morning after washing up for breakfast. Don't touch the food from the educated youth point.
"I'll have Jingcheng fetch a watchdog from the village in a bit. He'll help keep watch tonight. If anything happens, you'll be alerted because watchdogs have incredibly sensitive ears and he'll let you know."
After thinking for a moment, Lian Yi directly said.
Zhao Jingcheng nodded in agreement, already thinking about who to borrow a dog from.
"Xiu Fen and Zheng Xin are staying with me tonight. Jing Cheng, you guys go back to the rural youth point and stay there. Everything is focused on tomorrow's exam."
"Great!"
This time everyone agreed, checked their admission tickets and tools, and handed them all to Lian Yi. The four big men then returned to the educated youth point.
At three o'clock in the morning, when people are at their most tired, a dark figure slowly crept outside the educated youth point.o I don't want to miss this opportunity."Of course, Mom, don't worry. Me and Juanzi have saved some money too, just in case it's not enough, we want to borrow some from Mom.Once the house is divided,...
