Now that the college entrance examination is over, the most important thing has been completed. All that’s left is to wait for the test results.

Zhu Xiaomin wrote a letter back: Get the admission letter, come to the city as soon as possible, and buy tickets in advance.

The educated youth began to devote all their efforts to training new people and preparing to take over their work, while Zhu Xiaomin and He Lanfang also made a detailed organization and summary of the work at hand.

According to the original arrangement, He Lanfang was seconded to be Zhu Xiaomin's assistant for only half a year. Now the time was up, and she had to return to the administrative office to finish this part of the finishing work. However, because she had to take the college entrance examination, she did the finishing work as usual and put the matter of transferring back to the administrative office on hold.

The same goes for Zhu Xiaomin. She had made outstanding achievements in Cijiaokou Commune, and with two years of work experience, the bureau had decided to promote her to deputy section chief, but had to put her college entrance examination on hold.

Several people in the department couldn't help but feel sorry for her, but Guo Hongtao came over and said coldly: "Xiaomin, even if you go to college, won't you be assigned a job after graduation? You will have to start from scratch and it will take you four more years. I think it's better if you don't pass the exam."

What nonsense is this?

Several people shook their heads helplessly.

Zhu Xiaomin smiled and retorted: "Sister Guo is right, but if I stay here, Sister Guo will be under too much pressure. If I go to school, wouldn't it be better for you to stay? I don't know if you have the ability to be promoted to this associate subject."

Guo Hongtao's expression changed: "What do you mean you go to school and I stay? How do you know I can't pass the exam?"

Zhu Xiaomin smiled and said, "You think it's better if you can't pass the exam. Then you definitely won't pass. It's called heaven granting man's wishes."

She hopes that she won’t pass the exam, not that she won’t pass the exam herself!

Guo Hongtao turned pale with anger.

Jiao Xianglan interrupted from the other side: "Hong Tao, which school did you apply to?"

Guo Hongtao raised her chin and said, "I applied for the capital."

Jiao Xianglan asked again: "How did you do on the exam?"

Guo Hongtao said proudly: "Need I tell you? I wrote a lot."

Writing a lot and doing well on the test are two different things.

Zhu Xiaomin and He Lanfang looked at each other and saw a smile in each other's eyes.

After summarizing the work of the past two years and sorting and organizing the materials, Zhu Xiaomin thought about it and drew up a detailed plan for the future development of each team in Cijiaokou Commune. She asked He Lanfang to copy a copy, gave one to Liu Zhuangzhi so that the person who would take over her work would have a direction, and sent the other copy and a letter back to the educated youth site.

After finishing all the work, it was already approaching New Year's Day. Zhu Xiaomin had nothing to do. Apart from spending a lot of time with her son, she also planned to go to Beijing.

When they left the village, Xie Jing could already call "Dad" and "Mom" fluently. Now that his birthday had passed, Lu Yi still couldn't speak. Zhu Xiaomin was a little anxious. She held her son and taught him repeatedly every day, but Lu Yi just gave her a pure and innocent little expression and ignored her.

The day before New Year's Day, Lu Mingzheng's letter finally arrived. He started by saying that he had just left the laboratory, and then apologized to her, saying that he had a mission during the New Year and probably wouldn't be able to come back.

Zhu Xiaomin looked at it and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Well, she chose it herself.

Next, Lu Mingzheng asked about her and her son's situation. What he was most concerned about was naturally the college entrance examination, and he was excitedly looking forward to her coming over to reunite with him.

Given the frequency of his research, even if she went to Beijing, how much time would she have for them to reunite?

Zhu Xiaomin sighed, thought about it, and wrote a reply.

With a child and a wife named Jiang, she needed to prepare a place to stay in the capital in advance, and she had to set a specific range, which was a mandatory task assigned to Lu Mingzheng.

Hearing that Lu Mingzheng was not coming back, He Lanfang couldn't help but ask: "Xiaomin, are you going back to the educated youth camp to celebrate the New Year?"

Thinking of the bustle of the youth education center and looking at her surroundings, Zhu Xiaomin really yearned for it. But after thinking about it, she shook her head and said, "The road is too unsafe, and there are children here. I won't go back. After the New Year, they should be here soon."

Although each school starts at a different time, they are all basically in February. Around the Chinese New Year, everyone will receive an admission notice.

Thinking of the car accident that Xie Chengzhi almost encountered last year, He Lanfang nodded immediately: “Well, in this kind of weather, the village is also bare, and it is not as comfortable as in summer.”

Zhu Xiaomin looked at her with a smile: "I know Mrs. Jiang will not be unaccustomed to rural life, how come you, a city girl, also like the village?"

He Lanfang pursed her lips and smiled: "I can go to the countryside with you, and I don't have to work in the fields. I can eat fresh fruits and vegetables every day, and I can move freely in the yard as big as the educated youth's site. How can I not get used to it?"

makes sense!

Zhu Xiaomin nodded: "Yes, the hardship in the countryside lies in the daily labor. Simply speaking, the living environment is different from that in the city."

They decided to celebrate the New Year in the city. Lu Mingzheng would not come back this year, and Miao Shiwen and Xie Chengzhi were not around. Zhu Xiaomin and Jiang Sao only prepared food for a few days. They spent the day hanging out with neighbors, and at night, when the iron gate was closed, they took the children to have New Year's Eve dinner and stay up until the end of the year.

Worried about her college entrance examination results, He Lanfang came back after the third year of the Chinese New Year and went to the Education Bureau every day to find out whether the results had been announced.

Zhu Xiaomin had been watching her for a few days, then sighed and pulled her back, "This exam was decided hastily from top to bottom, and the college entrance examination results may not be announced in time. You just need to see if you get an admission letter."

For this exam, not only did many places not announce the results, but many places also did not have time to send out the admission notices, and instead notified them via telegram or phone call.

After hearing what she said, He Lanfang ran for another two days and suddenly came back with an envelope with a look of excitement: "Xiao Min, I'm from Beijing, and it's for you. It's...an envelope from Tsinghua University." When she said the last few words, her voice trembled with excitement.

Zhu Xiaomin's heart skipped a beat. She hurriedly took the envelope and saw the four red words printed on the lower right corner of the envelope. She was indescribably excited and quickly opened it, only to find that it was an admission letter.

She was admitted to Tsinghua University!

Even though she was mentally prepared, Zhu Xiaomin was still indescribably excited. She hugged her son and shouted, "Xiaoyi, we are going to Beijing. We are going to see Daddy."

Although Lu Yi didn't know what was going on, he was also infected by her joy and shouted excitedly: "Dad, Dad."

"Xiao Yi?" Zhu Xiaomin was stunned, and asked in surprise, "Xiao Yi, what were you talking about just now? Say it again."

Lu Yi stared at her with wide eyes for a while, then lowered his head and went back to fiddling with the toy in his hand.

Zhu Xiaomin looked at Mrs. Jiang, then at He Lanfang: "Did you hear what I just heard?"
