After dinner, his parents went out for a walk. Sun Qianchao was chatting with his brother-in-law in the back room, and his brother Sun Qianwei was also sitting beside him.
"Why haven't you and my sister taken the exam yet? I advised you before. Now, aren't you eager to see us go to college?"
Wu Pingfan drank a lot tonight. He had gotten along well with his father-in-law and his family over the years, and he was also happy that his two uncles could go to college.
Hearing his brother-in-law ask this question, he shook his head and replied: "Your sister and I have also considered it, but neither of us is that material, and we can't read the book at all, so we'd better not be embarrassed and conspicuous~"
"Besides, at this age, even if I pass the exam, I don't have the intention to do it. The eldest brother looks like he is eight years old now, so he can still get them together~"
Everyone has their own ambitions, and the sister's family made the right choice. Sun Qianchao didn't give any advice. He wanted to chat with his eldest brother, but when he turned around, he saw that he drank more than his brother-in-law, and he was already lying there almost asleep. .
I could only turn around and continue: "Brother-in-law, help me persuade my dad later!"
"This old man will be 53 after the New Year. Although he is in good health now, it is not normal for him to be such a laborer. I have always said that I can find connections to find a more relaxed position for him!
"We have contacted each other and asked him to guard the gate at the lumber factory. Our family is not short of money now, so we don't want to be in bad shape. But this old man is very stubborn and he just doesn't agree~"
"I'll think of a way after the Chinese New Year. There's going to be some movement over there. Old Wu will be transferred from politics soon. Then I'll find a way to arrange a good position for our dad to retire in!" Wu Pingfan said with a smile on his face. Full of smiles.
Because the hardships have finally come to an end. In the past year and a half since the old man was transferred to a casual position, life in his own unit has been difficult. Although he has not been dismissed, he has been walking on thin ice all day long.
"Uncle Wu is going to be transferred. This is a good thing. Where is he going to be transferred?" Sun Qianchao was also very happy.
Wu Pingfan smiled and replied: "Transfer to the province and serve as deputy chief of justice!"
"Thanks to Mr. Ma Shouchang this time. He is also working in politics and law in the province. He thought of some old friendship and said a word of help. Otherwise, the old man would probably have to work idle until he retires~"
"In the final analysis, Uncle Wu has the ability himself. Otherwise, for a principled person like Mr. Ma, no matter how kind you are to him, you will definitely not help him!"
These words are also sincere. Wu Guoqiang has indeed done a lot of practical things over the years, which is many times better than those who just eat nothing.
The two chatted for a while, and then saw their grandson's father and grandma coming back with glowing faces. After that, Wu Pingfan and Sun Xiaoli returned to their home with their children.
Sun Qianchao and his wife did not leave at night because Yu Hong was too happy and drank too much, so he, his father and his eldest brother slept in the back room as before, while his mother, sister-in-law, sister, and several children slept in the big house.
After sleeping here for a while, Sun Qianwei also felt a little more awake, lying on the bed and chatting with his brother.
"Catch up, I'm afraid it's going to be a little troublesome for you this time. I'm studying out of town. Please take care of your sister-in-law, children, and our parents~"
When Sun Ganchao heard this, he pretended to be displeased and said, "Brother, what are you talking about? Aren't they my parents too? You don't have to worry about my sister-in-law and nephew!"
"I can rest assured that you can handle things, but your sister-in-law's school is quite far from our home. She probably has to live on campus and can only go home on weekends, so Chenchen will have to work hard for our mother to help take care of her for a while~"
Sun Qianwei also felt sorry for his mother, but there was nothing he could do. Both he and his wife had to go to school, and he really couldn't take care of the children.
"Our mother also enjoys it. One granddaughter and two eldest grandsons call her grandma all day long. The old lady is also very happy!"
"By the way, brother, I have something to ask you. Why do you suddenly want to become a regular student?"
After Sun Qianchao said that, he didn't wait for his brother's reply for a long time. He thought he had fallen asleep, so he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
But in fact, Sun Qianwei was not asleep at all, but it was just inconvenient to say some things. The reason was very simple, that is, living in the countryside for nearly ten years had made him see through it.
It has not been easy for my brother to support the family these years, and now it is his turn. I thought about it for a long time when filling out the application form. I wanted to continue to be a teacher more than once before, but in the end I chose the National People's Congress.
…
After the New Year, the time flies so fast. In a blink of an eye, it’s the day when my eldest brother goes to school to report. The family bid farewell at the train station because he is going to the capital, so he needs to leave a few days in advance.
At this time, I realized the benefits of Lao Wu's reign. My brother-in-law Wu Pingfan directly got a sleeper ticket from Jichun to the capital. If it had been a year ago, it would have been a no-brainer.
A few days later, Sun Qianchao had to go to report. After getting up this morning, he sat on the sofa with a look of helplessness after breakfast.
Because his wife Yu Hong was helping her pack her luggage, and now there were two bags on the ground, she still packed them in the bedroom.
In the end, I couldn't hold it back anymore, so I got up and walked to the bedroom: "Daughter-in-law, that's it. Jiangliao Normal University is in Jichun. Our eldest brother went to the capital and didn't even pick up these luggage!"
"And why did you put those summer short-sleeved shirts for me? It's as if I won't come back. Although it's far away from our home, I'll be back in less than an hour by bicycle!"
"Uh..." Yu Hong was a little embarrassed when he heard this.
Then he asked a little sadly: "Catch up, our home is not too far away, do you have to live on campus to do hafe?"
Seeing this, Sun Qianchao stepped forward and hugged his wife, explaining: "Daughter-in-law, don't worry, I will be back on the weekend. I live in school for the purpose of studying. Running back and forth takes up too much time~"
My home is indeed not far from Jiangliao Normal University. In fact, I can live at home, but I still have accommodation at the school.
The reason for living on campus is of course not to study as mentioned just now, but also because university is another society where you can meet many capable people. Those who can pass the exam this time are not ordinary people.
In the end, under Sun Qunchao's strong request, he successfully lost one of his three luggages. There are still some advantages to going to school in this city, that is, he went to report on his bicycle instead of taking a car.
After arriving at school, Sun Qianchao was already out of breath. It wasn't that he was in poor health, it was mainly because Yu Hongfei had to hand over the public food last night. That guy was more ruthless than a tigress, and he was beaten seven or eight times.
Sun Qianchao locked his bicycle in the shed because he came directly. Unlike students from other places, someone would pick him up at the train station and he didn't know where to go to report.
After looking around, there happened to be someone who came to park his bicycle. He looked about 35 years old, wearing a Chinese tunic suit, and a pen in his breast pocket.
Because of the delay of ten years, there is a strange phenomenon in these years, that is, you can't tell whether he is a student or a teacher just by looking at his age, so he is still more cautious in addressing him.
"Hello, comrade, excuse me, I am a local freshman and I came here directly. Do you know where I should report?"
The man in Mao suit nodded, looked up and down, and replied: "Go to Building 1, assign a dormitory first, and then..."
The reporting process was also relatively simple. After finishing the work, I went directly to the dormitory and followed the stairs to the third floor. The door happened to be open. As soon as I entered, Sun Qunchao sighed, because the environment was simply indescribable.
There are two canopy beds on the left and right sides of the dormitory, with several tables in the middle. It is easy to transition from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to transition from luxury to frugality. I am used to sleeping with my wife in my arms every day. It is indeed difficult to accept that I suddenly have to sleep in bunk beds...
