"Brother, have you got Jinfeng's admission letter?"

"How can it be that fast? I went to the post office yesterday afternoon to ask. The letter will not arrive at the county post office until this morning. I will go to check it out at lunch time."

"Then I will go to the post office and wait. I guess everyone will feel uneasy if they don't see the admission letter."

"Okay, you go first. I can't take a leave from my factory, but you can leave half an hour earlier at noon. I will go to the post office to find you then."

The tractor was driving on the not very wide asphalt road in Quyang County.

The scorching sun fell on everyone, and everyone was tense.

Their old Meng family has never had a college student. This is the first one in history.

After running around for so long, I hope everything goes well today and nothing will go wrong.

Near noon, there were many people queuing at the door of the post office waiting to pick up letters and packages.

Meng Haisheng asked Meng Jinfeng to queue up. He went to another window to buy a few stamps and found a place with few people to stick on the letter of denunciation.

He put the letter into the mailbox instead of mailing it at the counter.

After waiting for half a day, Meng Jincheng came over, and there were two people in front of Meng Jinfeng.

It was finally Meng Jinfeng's turn, and all the brothers of the Meng family surrounded him.

"Comrade, I want to check if there is a letter for me."

Meng Jinfeng, who was lying on the counter, was so nervous that he stuttered.

The girl sitting at the counter rolled her eyes when she heard Meng Jinfeng say this.

"Where are you from? I don't think you are a resident near the post office. Letters from other places will be delivered to your door by the postman."

"If it is a large package, where is your parcel slip?"

Meng Jinfeng's face turned red when he was asked.

"I came from Muping Town, and I don't have a parcel slip."

The girl behind the counter was even more unhappy when she saw that Meng Jinfeng had nothing but his name.

"We don't just mail it to you. You don't have anything. Where can I find it for you? Go home and wait. It's your parcel. It's sure it won't get away."

When Meng Haisheng saw the little girl's attitude, he didn't want to help find the letter.

He was about to go up and talk to her when he suddenly saw a pile of stamps next to the little girl.

The bright red color directly hurt Meng Haisheng's eyes.

In 1980, China issued a stamp that influenced the Chinese philatelic market for decades - the Monkey Stamp.

There are 80 Monkey Stamps in a set, with a face value of 8 cents.

After it was issued, it was scattered in post offices across the country.

Before 1984, Monkey Stamps did not attract much attention. Many of the letters mailed in the post office were affixed with Monkey Stamps.

Later, a four-piece Monkey Stamp was issued, which was more exquisitely made. Although the face value was also 8 cents, the four-piece set was a special stamp, and a set cost 2.4 yuan.

Many post offices cannot sell a whole sheet of stamps, so they ask the staff to buy them back to complete the sales performance.

The girl at the counter put so many stamps on her hands, which was obviously a task given to her by the higher-ups.

"Comrade, are you selling the stamps on your table? I like stamp collecting. I wanted to buy a whole sheet of monkey stamps before, but I couldn't buy them."

The girl, who was impatient just now, instantly showed a touch of joy on her face when she heard that Meng Haisong wanted to buy stamps.

"Sell them, I sell these stamps in sheets, 6.4 yuan per sheet, these small ones are more beautiful and more expensive, 2.4 yuan per sheet."

Hearing the price, Meng Haisheng smiled in his heart.

So many monkey stamps, it's like the God of Wealth is forcing money into his pocket.

Suppressing the joy in his heart, Meng Haisheng asked the girl to count them.

There are 55 large-sheet monkey stamps and 120 small-sheet voting stamps.

So many stamps cost a total of 640 yuan.

This amount of money is several years' salary for ordinary workers nowadays.

But for Meng Haisheng, it is only less than 100 kilograms of earth yuan.

The girl who was counting with a calculator was afraid that Meng Haisheng would not buy.

"Comrade, if you feel that so many stamps are too many, you can buy a few less."

"This pile of stamps is the task of our entire post office. It doesn't matter if you can't buy it all by yourself."

"Not much, I want all of them."

Meng Haisheng took out a pile of big unity from his slightly dirty black leather bag, and quickly counted out 640 yuan and handed it to the girl at the counter.

"Can you help me find an envelope to wrap it up? My leather bag is too dirty."

With such expensive stamps, Meng Haisheng wanted to lock them in a safe.

"Okay, then I'll give you an envelope for free."

Meng Haisheng bought so many stamps at once, which directly alarmed the entire post office, and many post office staff came to watch the excitement.

Taking this opportunity, Meng HaishengThe student talked about helping Meng Jinfeng find the admission letter.

"It seems that there is really an admission letter today. Wait for me."

The person who spoke was the driver of the postal truck.

This morning, he helped unload the mailbags. When he sorted the letters, he also told his colleagues that there was a university admission letter in the letter.

When Meng Haisheng and his colleagues heard that there was really an admission letter, the string in their hearts instantly tightened again.

I hope this admission letter is from Meng Jinfeng.

After a long time, the driver came hurriedly with a kraft paper envelope.

"I found it. Is your name Meng Jinfeng?"

"Yes, it's mine."

Looking at his name on the envelope, Meng Jinfeng's eyes instantly turned red.

In order to get this admission letter, he has been living in dire straits these days and almost couldn't make it.

After Meng Jinfeng signed in a hurry, he opened the envelope in front of everyone.

A thin admission letter was displayed in front of everyone.

"You are quite capable, young man. There are only a few college students in our county this year. You can be admitted to Dongtai University, that's why."

The driver gave Meng Jinfeng a thumbs up.

The Meng brothers surrounded Meng Jinfeng and came out of the post office.

"Haisheng, take me back to the factory. Even if knives fall from the sky this afternoon, I will take half a day off."

"Let's go to the market to buy some meat and firecrackers later. I will go back to the village to set off a few firecrackers to let everyone in our village see that our Meng family finally has a college student."

"Okay."

Meng Haisheng agreed very readily. He drove the tractor to the county market with a car full of laughter.

Today is not only a good day for Meng Jinfeng, but also a good day for the whole Meng family.

Meng Haisheng is not a stingy person. He bought some braised meat and several bottles of beer with his own money, and prepared to set up a table at Grandpa Meng's house at noon today to celebrate Meng Jinfeng's admission to university.

Meng Haisheng celebrated happily, while Meng Jinshan's family, whose college entrance examination results were cancelled, was shrouded in gloom.

"Meng Guoliang, what did you tell me at the beginning? You said our son would definitely be admitted to Dongtai University. Now, not only did he fail, but his college entrance examination results were also cancelled."

"With such a big incident, how can I let my son go back to school to repeat his studies and continue to take the college entrance examination next year?"

Meng Guoliang's wife Xiong Liyun yelled at Meng Guoliang, and the sound could be heard throughout the building.
