Chapter 178: Sister-in-law is on holiday
Chapter 178 My sister-in-law is on vacation
She originally thought that with her grades, she would be able to get the admission notice from Nanjing University in a short time, but the winter solstice arrived in a blink of an eye, and people from other villages had already received the admission notice.
There are also educated youths who have obtained the educated youth point in Panshi Village.
Chu Ge even got the admission notice from Beijing University.
Beijing University…
The best universities in the country.
It is a place that is out of reach for many people.
Although Chu Ge was not from Panshi Village, he was still an educated youth working in their Panshi Village.
Su Changjiang, the team leader, Xu Youcai, and Wang Tiezhu all brought gifts to the educated youth to say congratulations.
The villagers also came one after another to see the admission notice and Chu Ge, the top pick.
That battle was more lively than when the number one scholar passed the exam in ancient times.
Within two days, Chen Huihui also received the admission notice from Beijing University of Technology. Although Beijing University of Technology is only an ordinary undergraduate university.
But in this era, college students have to be distributed after graduation.
Being admitted to university means that you can eat commercial food and be a national cadre.
Su Changjiang, the team leader, Xu Youcai, and Wang Tiezhu went to the educated youth center as usual. Although the gifts were not as many as those given to Chu Ge, they did not say a word less on the occasion.
These days, the villagers don't seem to be afraid of the cold anymore. They are either at the educated youth point or on the way to the educated youth point.
There is no time to visit the east and west houses.
Shen Zhihuan's admission notice has not yet arrived, which makes Su Changjiang and Zhang Fengxia somewhat regretful.
They also noticed the second daughter-in-law's efforts.
But sometimes hard work is one thing and luck is another.
Other than lamenting their bad luck, the two of them didn't know what to say.
Failing in the college entrance examination was already uncomfortable, and for fear of Shen Zhihuan overthinking it, Su Changjiang and Zhang Fengxia privately told Zhou Xiuqiao and Su Zijun more than once not to talk about the college entrance examination and admission notice at home.
So as not to irritate her.
It's almost the twelfth lunar month, and the weather is getting colder and colder.
The snow in the mountains is also getting thicker and thicker. From a distance, it is just white.
There was no snow on the country road, but it was still so cold that people were shivering.
There is no work in the fields, the popularity of the college entrance examination admission notice has subsided, and most of the villagers who have no excitement to watch are huddled at home and shut up.
Shen Zhihuan's body was already weak, and it became even more difficult when winter came.
Two days ago, I went to the brigade headquarters to answer a call from Xiao Weidong, and I caught a cold when I came back.
A high fever broke out before dark, and Su Changjiang was so frightened that he ran all the way to Doctor Hua's house.
After drinking two bowls of decoction, the high fever subsided a little.
That night, Zhang Fengxia and Zhou Xiuqiao stayed by her bedside.
For fear of a recurrence of her condition, it was not until dawn that Shen Zhihuan's fever completely subsided, and the two of them went back to the house to rest.
After that day, Zhang Fengxia and Su Changjiang refused to let Shen Zhihuan go out.
The charcoal basin in Shen Zhihuan's house was always burning brightly.
Even when Su Lili came back from vacation, she complained that her parents were partial.
"Second sister-in-law, can I sleep with you tonight? It's too cold in my room."
Just after breakfast, Su Lili grabbed Shen Zhihuan and acted pitifully.
"No!" Before Shen Zhihuan could speak, Zhang Fengxia, who was cleaning up the dishes, already objected. "Second brother is not at home, what's wrong with me and second sister-in-law keeping company?" Su Lili pouted.
"What's wrong? You can roll from the head of the bed to the end of the bed while sleeping, and the quilt can be rolled from the bed to the bottom of the bed. If you're like this, don't bother your second sister-in-law." Zhang Fengxia said rudely.
Zhou Xiuqiao, who was helping clear away the dishes at the table, couldn't help laughing.
"Whose child doesn't sleep like that?!" Su Lili frowned.
"Have you ever seen a fourteen- or five-year-old girl call a child?" Zhang Fengxia snorted, "I tell you, don't pester your second sister-in-law, she is weak and you will make her sick. Look, How can I deal with you?"
Seeing her own mother clearing the dishes and going to the kitchen, Su Lili pestered Shen Zhihuan again.
"Second sister-in-law, just try to sleep with me for one night. If I'm really that bad at sleeping, just kick me out of bed, okay?"
"If you're not afraid that your second brother will carry you to the back mountains to feed the wolves, you can pester your second sister-in-law." Su Changjiang, who was about to go out to the brigade headquarters, glanced at his little girl with drooped eyelids.
"Dad, can you bear to watch me being carried to the back mountains to feed the wolves by my second brother?" Su Lili approached Su Changjiang and held his arm.
"Why should I not tolerate someone who is lazy and has no contribution to the family?" Su Changjiang broke away from Su Lili's hand and straightened the hat on his head.
Su Lili stamped her foot angrily.
"Am I the biological child of you and your mother?"
"I hope not. Throw you out and save one person's rations to feed some chickens, pigs, etc. It's no better than feeding you." Su Changjiang chuckled.
"father…"
Su Lili refused and just called out.
There was a knock on the door of the courtyard.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law..."
Upon hearing this, Shen Zhihuan couldn't help but frown.
Zhou Xiuqiao and Zhang Fengxia, who had just finished cleaning up the kitchen, also frowned upon hearing this.
Unsure of what was going on, Su Lili trotted to open the door.
"Lili, when did you come back?" As soon as the door opened, a delicate female voice came in.
Hearing this voice, Su Changjiang couldn't help but frown.
It's almost the twelfth lunar month now. As mentioned above, the educated youth can return to the city early to celebrate the New Year...
"I came back yesterday, Sister Huihui. I heard that you were admitted to Beijing University of Technology. Congratulations." Su Lili said with a smile.
During school holidays, Su Hongying and Zhao Xiaotao brought Chen Huihui here several times. The two were similar in age, and Chen Huihui was good at speaking and debating, so they got along pretty well.
"Lili, your sister Huihui has been admitted to college, so you have to work hard! Don't be like some unpromising people who can only stay in this mountain valley for the rest of their lives." Su Hongying seemed to be afraid that the people in the room would listen. Missing, he said in a loud voice.
"Su Hongying, are you talking about yourself or your little girl who hasn't even finished junior high school?" Su Changjiang looked at Su Hongying with a serious face.
Remember what you eat and not what you take.
I haven’t picked up the lost face yet, and I feel uncomfortable again.
The pride on Su Hongying's face froze, "Brother, you haven't gone to the brigade headquarters yet?"
"I know you are coming, why don't I greet you at home?" Su Changjiang's expression was cold.
If he wasn't at home, how could he see his good sister's face and her sharp words with a gun and a stick.
"Brother, I just want Lili to study hard and not be like her, Sister Xiaotao, who dropped out of school before finishing junior high school and has no future." Su Hongying twisted the corners of her coat and explained with a blushing face.
"Uncle Su." Chen Huihui pursed her lips and called out delicately.
"Chen Zhiqing is here too. Sit inside, it's cold outside." Su Changjiang curled his lips with a smile.
After saying that, he turned to look at Zhang Fengxia, "My dear, I know if the charcoal fire in Huan's room has been replenished, but don't put it out."
