Teacher Hong Xiaofang finished correcting the homework, locked the classroom, and walked on the way home, faintly remembering a few words of singing by Hong Jianyuan's little old man, "There is a girl named Xiaofang in the village, who is good-looking and kind, with a pair of beautiful big eyes and thick and long braids. Whenever she thought about it, she was so angry that the roots of her teeth itched. That day, when he passed by the door of Hong Yan's house because of his big braids, he was seen by the hateful little brother and made up a song to sing. The little doll thought it was funny, so she sang it.

It's only been a few days, and I'm afraid the whole brigade will sing. However, she was faintly a little excited. Although there are only four sentences, the tune is catchy and ...... Pretty interesting. I don't know how the little ghost snorted. She listened, the lyrics were still unfinished, far more than four lines, but in any case, the little ghost just said no, and sang casually.

It's been fifty-one days since school started, yes, it's been fifty-one days, and Teacher Xiaofang has almost counted the days. Teacher Xiaofang finally touched the door and basically stood on the podium. Every night when she came home and had to take out her high school textbooks to review, she was very tired. Many times, she thought about how reliable a child's words could be. But good and self-denial, just because a child can talk about such a major thing as the college entrance examination and has foresight, she dispelled the idea of giving up. "It is better to believe what you have", as Hong Yan said, even if there is no such thing as the college entrance examination, you can consolidate knowledge, improve knowledge, and enhance education and teaching ability.

She had already looked for newspapers through various channels, and of course, it was already two or three days late when it came to her. However, radios are still not easy to find in this day and age. She still got one from her brother-in-law, and the national news broadcast at half past 6 o'clock became a must-listen program for her.

When she passed by Hong Yan's house, she resisted the urge to ask Hong Yan why there was no news yet, and she had already asked around the bush several times. I was even laughed at by a little kid once: "Teacher Xiaofang is an adult, why can't you hold your breath?" "Teasing her to make her a teacher.

When I got home, I looked at my watch, 6:20. My mother went to the field to spread rapeseeds, and my father was picking up manure to water the vegetable field. She opened the door, put down the satchel on her shoulder, and filled the cup with a thermos bottle, and then she turned on the radio. No one in the family can use the radio, not even the younger brother. The adjusted channel is ZY People's Radio.

The radio sound is clear, there is no current sound and clutter. The music of "Singing the Motherland" sounded, and the next thing was the news broadcast. "Listeners, good evening, this is the national news broadcast program of **People's Radio. First of all, please listen to the summary: China's autumn grain harvest has been bumper...... The central government decided to resume the college entrance examination...... "The college entrance examination was resumed, and the college entrance examination was indeed resumed." Teacher Xiaofang's heart was pounding, and reason told her to listen carefully.

The news on the radio has never been so attractive, and Xiaofang listened attentively, "Why are there so many important meetings, leaders' inspections, and visits?" "Anxiously waiting, it's never been so slow." According to Xinhua News Agency, the State Council has approved and forwarded the Ministry of Education's "Opinions on the Work of Recruiting Graduate Students in Institutions of Higher Education in 1977" and "Opinions on Recruiting Graduate Students in Institutions of Higher Learning," which will hold a college entrance examination within the year...... and the "Opinions" point out that it is necessary to comprehensively and correctly implement Chairman M's educational policy that 'education must serve proletarian politics and must be integrated with production and labor' and that 'the educated people will develop in moral, intellectual, and physical education and become educated workers with socialist consciousness.' It is necessary to adopt effective measures to effectively select and promote outstanding young people. It is necessary to implement the principle of walking on two legs and open up the road widely; It is necessary to insist on voluntary registration, conscientiously conduct cultural examinations, and select the best. We should produce talented people and produce results as soon as possible, accelerate the fulfillment of the major strategic task of 'building a contingent of proletarian intellectuals,' and make contributions to building China into a great modern socialist country by the end of this century. The Opinions stipulate that...... Have a high school diploma or equivalent to a high school diploma...... Those who meet the enrollment requirements can register with their own units and fill in two to three application preferences according to the school and subject category. Communes, factories and mines, institutions, schools and other units will be reviewed according to the enrollment conditions, and those who meet the conditions will be reported to the county (district) admissions committee for approval and participate in the unified examination...... This year's enrollment was postponed to the fourth quarter, and the 1977 freshmen were admitted by the end of February next year. Since 1978, regular colleges and universities have been recruiting students in June and opening in early September......"

"Smack!" Teacher Xiaofang turned off the radio, stepped over the high threshold, and shouted at his father who came back with an empty bucket: "Dad, it's been reported, it's been reported, the college entrance examination has been resumed, and the exam is really going to be taken at the end of this year." ”

After Teacher Xiaofang finished shouting, she rushed out of the dam, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. Hong Maojiang looked at his daughter who was far away and shook his head. It's good news, and before he can say it, his daughter ran away. What like a big girl who has become a teacher?

Hong Yan was jumping in circles with his younger brothers and sisters at this time, and he was hugged by a person who rushed up, "College Entrance Examination...... College Entrance Examination ...... There is news...... "As for the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination, I was hugged tightly, and I could clearly feel the elasticity and majesty of the other party's chest, as well as a faint fragrance."

"Sister Xiaofang, be calm, be calm......" Hong Yan struggled and said. Teacher Xiaofang finally felt the squeeze on her chest, her breath was not flat, and her pretty face was even redder. I had to let go of the little man in my arms.

"Hong Yan, the radio has already broadcast the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination. The document says it's the fourth quarter, and now it's the fourth quarter, and the specific time is not clear, but the registration has begun, and I'm so happy, really happy...... "...... couldn't hold Hong Yan's head again, and kissed him on the forehead.

"Sister, I want it too!" Rongrong saw that her brother was kissed, and she also wanted one.

"Good! Come little beauty! Kiss...... And the little handsome guy, poo...... And this little handsome guy, ......" Teacher Xiaofang kissed them one by one.

"Rub, Sister Xiaofang, pay attention to hygiene......" Hong Yan Xiaofang said, but there was a sly smile in her eyes.

"I don't mind, I'm happy, what's wrong!" Teacher Xiaofang did wave her hand and didn't mind.

"I mean, it's uncomfortable!" Hong Yan looked distressed and nodded his forehead with his finger.

"You ......" Teacher Xiaofang choked.

After the rejoicing, it's time to think about the next questions. It seems that Teacher Xiaofang has not thought about this problem yet!

"Sister Xiaofang, the news has been confirmed. So what are you going to do? Hong Yan brought a stool for her to sit down. She held Rong Rong in her left hand and Xiao Zheng in her right hand.

"What else can I do? Keep up the review! The day after tomorrow I have to go to the commune to sign up, and I need to pass the examination, and the school's class can only be watched by Principal Lan for the time being. "Teacher Xiaofang has not thought about it." It's so slow to review! There are a lot of things that I didn't understand in school, and it was even harder to read them on my own. Several times, I fell asleep while looking at the textbook on the table. Speaking of falling asleep, Teacher Xiaofang smiled suddenly.

Hong Yan can certainly understand. In this era, there is no pressure of the college entrance examination in the future, and the school classes are intermittent, and both teachers and students must have perseverance to persevere. Otherwise, Teacher Xiaofang is over 20 years old. Like her, who can insist on finishing high school, she is eager to learn and improve, so she has the best to take the college entrance examination. Because of this, Hong Yan reminded her in advance.

"Sister Xiaofang, I think you can substitute teach in the brigade primary school, the family must have gone through a lot of hard work. The brigade should also have great expectations, and I hope that you will persevere in primary school and teach the children in the brigade. The members of the brigade hope that their children will not only not be blind, but also hope that they will have a good future. Hong Yan said in a more formal tone.

"You know I've been going to school, and I really don't know how to do the farm work on the team. At home, you can only cook, wash, feed pigs, and other simple things. The brigade happened to need a substitute teacher, so my dad found the secretary of the brigade to negotiate with the captain, and he had to promise to stick to it. It's only been less than two months, and I'm going to ask for leave and be delayed. Teacher Xiaofang seemed to be a little sorry for delaying the normal teaching of the school and delaying the children's learning because of her own affairs.

"Sister Xiaofang, actually...... I still recommend that you fight against the odds and give it a go. Of course, I didn't quit as a substitute teacher, but took leave to go to the county to attend a tutorial class and concentrate on coping with the college entrance examination with all my might. You have the advantage of being young and fresh out of school and having formally completed three years of formal high school education. It is estimated that there are many 'old three' candidates who took the college entrance examination this time, and they have been dropping their textbooks for more than ten years, and it is much more difficult to pick them up than you. There are also many junior high school graduates who are preparing to take the college entrance examination, and there are many people in factories and mines, who do not have such good conditions as you. After this village, there is no such shop. I suggest that you make it clear to Principal Lan and Teacher Hong Maolin and ask them to take care of the class. Such a big thing, they can definitely understand it, and the brigade can understand it. They are all veteran teachers, and the first grade class is not a problem. However, it is best to find someone who has a strong sense of responsibility to take care of the class and avoid accidents. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if you can't get your wish in the college entrance examination, you can still come back and continue to substitute teach, right? ”

Of course, Hong Yan hopes that Xiaofang can realize her dream of going to university. In his previous life, he didn't know if Teacher Xiaofang had taken the college entrance examination, maybe she had taken the college entrance examination but failed, in short, she did continue to substitute teach in primary school later. This time, since he had already said in advance that he had prepared more than a month in advance, he simply gave her some small suggestions. It's up to her to decide whether to adopt it or not. Perhaps, she values substitute teachers very much, or maybe her father does not approve of her taking the college entrance examination, and everything depends on herself.

Although he has now basically reached the point of not forgetting. The knowledge forgotten in high school can be learned in a month at most. Hehe, of course, Hong Yan is not stupid enough to expose his knowledge to tutor her,

The first college entrance examination after "Wen G" was in winter, but it was the spring of education. This is not only a matter of resuming the college entrance examination, but also conveys the idea of attaching importance to talents and education from the "Admissions Opinions", and at the same time releases political signals, such as the application conditions are not limited by "ingredients" and "bloodlines", which cannot but be said to be progress. This kind of unified selection of the national college entrance examination has also laid the groundwork for the future college entrance examination controversy. However, Hong Yan believes that no matter how much argument is debated in the future, the resumption of the college entrance examination after a ten-year hiatus is progress in itself.
