Chapter 55 The college entrance examination is resumed

Xu Shiyan took his daughter-in-law to the Qianchuan ginseng field to see the ginseng, and happened to miss a major event.

On October 21, the higher authorities announced a policy to resume the college entrance examination this year, and all eligible candidates can take the exam.

As soon as this news was announced, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

Especially the educated youths who went to the countryside, many of them were thinking about applying for the exam.

On the Xu family's side, Xue Xiulin and Wei Mingrong are both educated youths in the countryside.

However, both of them graduated from junior high school, and their studies were not good at the beginning, and now they are married and have children, even if they know the news, they have no intention of signing up.

It was Xu Shixiang, who heard the news and immediately said that he wanted to sign up.

Xu Shixiang has graduated from high school for a few years, and he has been unwilling to work in the agricultural team to earn work.

If he put aside his previous temper, Xu Chenghou heard that the fifth child was going to take the college entrance examination, and he would probably curse again.

This year's college entrance examination is in early December, and the time is very tight, and Xu Shixiang must start to review immediately if he wants to take the exam.

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

Thinking that his son couldn't earn work points when he was preparing for the exam, Xu Chenghou was also very distressed.

But since the third son broke up, the little couple went out to live alone, but life is getting better and better, Xu Chenghou has nothing to do and reflects on himself.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that he might be old and couldn't keep up with his thoughts and vision.

So this time, the fifth child said that he wanted to take the college entrance examination, but Xu Chenghou didn't say anything, and sat there and smoked for a long time.

Xu Chenghou didn't speak, and the rest of the family didn't want to speak rashly, but Xue Xiulin and Wei Mingrong were unhappy.

The Xu family, old and young, has more than a dozen people living together, and there are only a few men who can earn work.

The two of them wanted to talk, but they didn't dare, so they reached out and stabbed their respective men.

Xu Shixian and Xu Shi'an knew what their daughter-in-law was going to do, but they couldn't say it directly, so they could only give their daughters-in-law a look.

"Okay, you don't have to scramble your eyebrows one by one, I'm not so dizzy that I can't see anything clearly."

Zhou Guilan has been in charge for so many years, can she still guess the thoughts of her son and daughter-in-law? Speak immediately.

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

Don't look at Zhou Guilan's illiterate, but she is very knowledgeable, much better than ordinary rural old ladies.

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

Being able to leave the countryside and not have to work in the fields all day long, sitting in the back office to receive a salary, is a good thing that others dream of. ”

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

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

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

"You guys, don't feel like you're at a loss.

As I said before, when the fourth child gets married, we will split up in the spring of next year. ”

didn't wait for the daughters-in-law to make a fuss, Zhou Guilan directly picked out the words and said them clearly, and now, the two daughters-in-law lost their temper.

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

At this time, he was on the mountain, guarding the stove pit to burn walnut pine tower for Su Anying.

In the afternoon, when Xu Shiyan was digging traps and gunning guns on the periphery of the field, he picked up some walnuts and shot a few pine towers.

The mountain is so good, far away from the village, there are few people coming, and there are many kinds of mountain goods.

Su Anying is pregnant, and they all say that pregnant women eat more nuts is good for their children.

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

So Xu Shiyan grabbed a large number of pecans, dipped the tips in front of him in cold water, and inserted them vertically into the charcoal fire.

After a while, a snapping sound could be heard, and the tip of the walnut in front cracked.

When the pine tower is cooked, it is put upright, and if you raise your foot and kick it hard, the pine nuts inside will burst out, and the rest will be picked up by hand to find it.

A big pine tower can produce almost two taels of pine nuts, and two pine towers are enough for Su Anying to knock for one night.

Fresh pine nuts are cooked with a sweet aroma, and they are better than fried when they are dry.

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

Taking advantage of Xu Shiyan's inattention, he stuffed it into his mouth.

"I don't eat it, you just eat it." Xu Shiyan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.

"You eat it is good for the body, especially for children, it is said that eating more nuts makes children have bright eyes and are smart."

He doesn't crave any snacks, he eats them when he has them, and he doesn't have them.

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

"So much, you also burned walnuts, such a way to eat, it is estimated that I will become a ball before the child is born."

Su Anying glanced at her slightly bulging lower abdomen, it has only been a few months, and she feels that she has gained weight several times.

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

Xu Shiyan smiled, picked out the walnuts from the stove pit, picked up the knife and chopped down the opening, just split the walnuts in half.

"Find an awl, you can pick walnuts and eat them yourself, and I'll go out for a walk."

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

The big house is not large, and with the newly planted mallet in autumn, it is only about 2,000 feet.

In these years, the horse road is wide, so when converted, it is about fifty or sixty acres of land.

Xu Shiyan carried a gun on his back and a flashlight in one hand, strolling around the venue, shaking the grass outside with a flashlight from time to time, and then looking at the sticks clamped around to see if there were any defects.

In the evening, you have to walk around the ginseng field, as well as some major places inside.

Especially those places where it is more convenient for people to enter, or where there are tall bushes where people can hide, 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 field, he didn't dare to be careless, and he had to go around everywhere he had to go.

If he loses the mallet in his hand, it will be a big shame.

Xu Shiyan walked around the venue for most of the time, and everything was normal. Xu Shiyan was relieved, and walked back around the other side.

Just as he was wandering to the southeast corner of the field, he suddenly heard a thud, followed by a pig-killing howl.

It was a gunshot on the ground, and listening to that movement, it should have injured a wild boar.

Xu Shiyan was excited, and immediately ran towards the place where the gun rang out.
