The Fat Wife of the 1980s Awakens
Chapter 229 Everyone’s Attention
Xu Xiufang raised her eyebrows slightly and winked at Xie Yi beside her.
Xie Yi noticed their gazes, a sneer appeared on his lips, and he was about to step forward.
Zhou Qifeng quickly pulled Gu Tingting and the child over and hurriedly left the scene to avoid unnecessary trouble.
“It’s really off-putting.”
Xie's mother grumbled in dissatisfaction.
"The way they look at their mother is like a poisonous snake."
Erbao frowned, clenched his fists tightly, and showed his unwillingness to admit defeat. "I really want to teach them a lesson!"
As soon as these words fell, Erbao heard his father patting him lightly on the head, accompanied by a voice of praise: "You have guts!"
Erbao grinned when he heard that, his little face filled with pride.
Xu Xiufang asked curiously: "Dad, do you know their specific scores?"
"Gu Tingting scored 144 points, and Zhou Qifeng scored slightly higher, 197 points."
Father Xie answered succinctly.
Xu Xiufang understood that this result was both unexpected and reasonable.
In this world without the halo of the protagonist, Zhou Qifeng and Gu Tingting lost the opportunities that could change their destiny, and were unable to know the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination in advance.
Coupled with the passage of time, most of the previous knowledge has been forgotten. It is not easy to get high scores by just one month of review.
With such a score, even going to a junior college, let alone university, seems out of reach!
Even though the results had been announced, Xu Xiufang still decided to go to the county town to visit Xie Chunyan.
At this time, Xie Chunyan had been pregnant for more than four months. Perhaps due to her advanced age during pregnancy, this experience was particularly difficult for her. She had difficulty eating and suffered frequent morning sickness. She was in great pain.
This matter made Feng Dongling very anxious. He took her to the hospital for examination many times, but the doctors said that this was just a normal reaction during pregnancy and advised her to go home and rest.
Xu Xiufang has been confined to her home to prepare for the college entrance exam. It was only recently that she accidentally discovered that Xie's mother was behaving strangely, as if she was hiding some unspeakable secret.
An accidental call almost frightened Xie's mother to the point of falling, which revealed Xie Chunyan's secret.
It turned out that Xie's mother secretly found a so-called "witch" to pray for blessings.
After learning about the situation, Xu Xiufang rushed to visit Xie Chunyan. She saw that Xie Chunyan looked haggard and her belly was unusually bulging, as if she was six or seven months pregnant. So she suggested that she go to the city hospital for further examination.
As for what happened next, it is unknown.
Now that the college entrance examination results have been announced, the family is in a good mood and decides to take this opportunity to go to the county town to relax.
Since I came to the county town, I naturally had to go to the school gate to check the transcript posted.
The list was posted on the mottled gray wall at the high school gate, and the bright red paper was densely recorded with the scores and rankings of each candidate.
At the top of the first list, Xu Xiufang's name is prominently listed, like a bright star leading the crowd. Following closely behind her is Dabao, who ranks second in the county and second in the city, equally brilliant.
Several bright banners were hung above the school, the most eye-catching of which read: "Warmly congratulate Comrade Xu Xiufang for winning the top prize in Hongning Province in the 1977 National College Entrance Examination."
Following closely was a banner congratulating Dabao for his outstanding achievement of fourth place in the province, which was equally eye-catching!
Although Xie's mother was not well educated, she felt both proud and doubtful when she saw the words on the banner. She asked Xu Xiufang half-doubtingly, "Xiufang, does it say you and Dabao?"
"Yes, that's right."
Xu Xiufang gave an affirmative answer, with confidence and pride shining in her eyes.
Being the top scorer in this year's college entrance examination, this honor is like a bright star, and naturally became the focus of everyone's attention.
The news was like an unstoppable wind, and wherever it passed, there were looks of amazement and curiosity.
The people around him, who were originally talking to each other, seemed to be drawn by some invisible force and cast eager and admiring glances at him.
Under this spotlight, some men were unconsciously attracted by Xu Xiufang's gentle and beautiful face. Their eyes flashed with amazement inadvertently, as if a spring breeze was blowing on their faces, brightening their hearts.
Xie Yi, who was standing next to Xu Xiufang, was calm and composed. Their temperaments complemented each other, and they were like a perfect match from a painting. This harmony and beauty made people involuntarily feel awe, and they did not dare to approach casually and destroy the peaceful picture.
At this time, the two girls in neat school uniforms seemed to muster up all their courage, stepped out of the crowd, shyly but firmly stepped forward, and finally stopped in front of Xu Xiufang, with uncontrollable excitement and admiration in their voices: "Excuse me, are you Comrade Xu Xiufang?"
Their eyes sparkle with a desire for knowledge and achievement.
Xu Xiufang smiled gently, and that smile was warm and kind, like the warm sunshine in spring, which instantly brought them closer: "Yes."
Her answer was brief but powerful.
The two girls were delighted when they heard the confirmation: "You are amazing. Your college entrance examination score was only 5 points away from full marks! Can you share your study methods and experience?"
Their expressions are pure and innocent, and their words are full of yearning and pursuit for success.
Xu Xiufang looked at these two hopeful faces and felt pity for them. She then talked to them without reservation about her experiences and insights in preparing for the exam.
Her sharing was sincere and practical, and unexpectedly attracted more listeners. Everyone gathered in a circle, holding their breath, afraid of missing out on any valuable experience.
Perhaps because of Xu Xiufang's approachability, and the atmosphere created by the first two female students, many men who had originally kept their distance were gradually attracted. Some sincerely wanted to seek advice from the top scholar, while others were attracted by Xu Xiufang's inner and outer beauty, and they all approached her.
One of the handsome boys, Lei Pingle, made no secret of his admiration for Xu Xiufang. Taking advantage of the gap in the conversation, he forced a smile and took the initiative to introduce himself: "Comrade Xu, hello, I am Lei Pingle, and I am also a candidate for this year's college entrance examination. I am fortunate to have won the third place in the county. I wonder if you have found someone you like?"
His words were filled with a hint of expectation and uneasiness, and like a stone, they caused a thousand ripples, and the audience around him immediately burst into a booing.
No matter when and where, emotional topics can always quickly ignite people's curiosity and enthusiasm, not to mention the emotional belonging of the top scorer.
Xu Xiufang was slightly stunned. She didn't expect someone to ask such a direct question, and Xie Yi was standing next to her at the moment.
Due to the crowded crowd, Xie Yi put his hand lightly on her shoulder. It was a gentle yet firm protective gesture that not only kept the distance between the two of them, but also prevented her from being pushed.
