"Brother, are you ready? We have to leave quickly." Zhao Shichu checked his stationery again to make sure there was nothing missing, and then started calling Zhao Shijian.
Today is the first exam after the resumption of the college entrance examination. Zhao Shichu has been waiting for this day for two years.
Zhao Shijian came out of the house and said, "Have you brought all your things?"
"We've got them all." Zhao Shichu nodded.
"That's good." Zhao Shijian took a breath and pushed the bicycle out of the courtyard. After Zhao Shichu came out, he locked the courtyard door and drove Zhao Shichu out of the village to the examination center in the town.
There were quite a few candidates taking the college entrance examination in the village. In addition to a dozen educated youths, there were also local students in the village who had studied there. When Zhao Shijian was driving Zhao Shichu on the road, he even said hello to familiar people.
Everyone paid great attention to this college entrance examination. They got up early and walked to the town. Zhao Shichu saw many people walking in a hurry with solemn expressions along the way.
She soon saw a familiar woman.
"Brother, is that woman just now Wen Yishu?" Zhao Shichu asked Zhao Shijian in surprise.
"It's her." Zhao Shijian replied.
"How did she become like this now? She is dark and thin, and she is exactly the same as before. What happened?" Zhao Shichu was really confused.
"Maybe it's because I didn't live well after getting married." Zhao Shijian said casually.
Zhao Shichu remembered that Wen Yishu rarely worked with everyone since she married Li Jianguo two years ago. In addition, the Zhao family was far away from the Li family, so after Wen Yishu got married, Zhao Shichu rarely worked with everyone. When I saw her, I naturally didn't know why she had changed.
"Didn't she get married just to escape from labor and find a man to rely on? Why is she so haggard? Did Li Jianguo treat her badly?" Zhao Shichu wondered.
Zhao Shijian said: "Have you forgotten Li Jianguo's troubled mother and several sisters-in-law? Although Wen Yishu is a bit cautious, she is no match for those women, even though she doesn't work in the fields very much. They earn work points, but they still have to do a lot of work at home. When life is not going well, they naturally become haggard."
"...That's really pitiful." Zhao Shichu shrugged, but this was what Wen Yishu was willing to marry in the first place, and she couldn't blame others.
"She is also going to take the college entrance examination today, right? Li Jianguo actually agreed to let her go? Are you not afraid that she will run away after passing the exam?" Zhao Shichu felt that even if Li Jianguo could be persuaded by Wen Yishu, other Li family members may not want to see Wen Yishu go. Test.
"Who knows?" Zhao Shijian shook his head.
The brother and sister chatted and soon arrived in the town. Their examination rooms were both at the middle school in the town. It took some time after they found their respective classrooms, so they found a quiet place and took the time to review. focus.
On the other side, Wen Yishu, who was still walking on the road, also saw the brother and sister Zhao Shijian. Watching them speed away briskly on their bicycles, she felt so complicated and uncomfortable in her heart.
If Zhao Shijian she married two years ago was so good, he would definitely not treat her like Li Jianguo did. In fact, she regretted it on the second day after marrying Li Jianguo. She thought that even though the people in the Li family were worried, they could just endure it for a few years and get through it. Who knew that she still overestimated her patience? He underestimated the level of excellence of the Li family.
And Li Jianguo is not much better. He has a strong sense of machismo. He believes that women should do everything at home and obey their husbands in everything. No objection is allowed, otherwise it will be unruly.
Wen Yishu could barely tolerate this. She just had to pretend to be gentle and submissive in front of him. However, Li Jianguo didn't talk about everything. As long as his mother or several sisters-in-law said anything about Wen Yishu, he would assume it was her fault without saying a word. It was Wen Yishu's fault that she was forced to apologize and confess to her mother-in-law or sister-in-law, which she couldn't bear, so the two quarreled and quarreled.
Whenever this happens, Wen Yishu can't help but compare Li Jianguo with Zhao Shijian. When she married Zhao Shijian in her previous life, where did she suffer such grievances? Zhao Shijian is not a macho man. He has a gentle temper and never loses his temper with his family members. He is also willing to do housework. He and Zhao Shichu always keep the delicious and useful things close to her...
This comparison showed that Li Jianguo was becoming more and more inadequate, and Wen Yishu became more and more dissatisfied with him. But she was already married, how could she still get divorced? The price was too high for her to bear, and it was still five or six years before Li Jianguo became rich. She couldn't bear it anymore, so she had to put her hope in the college entrance examination, hoping to get into college and get out of her current predicament.
Li Jianguo was afraid that she would run away after getting into college, so he naturally disagreed with her taking the college entrance examination. Wen Yishu spent a lot of words and made a promise that she would take him to the city with her after getting into college, so he reluctantly agreed.
Wen Yishu touched her dry, yellow and skinny hands, and thought of the beautiful, fair and slender fingers that Zhao Shichu had just seen holding her satchel. She felt sour and jealous, and once again regretted why she didn't continue to pester Zhao Shijian. If she had married It's Zhao Shijian, so now he can take care of his fingers as well as Zhao Shichu...
Zhao Shichu didn't know that Wen Yishu was envious and jealous of him. This college entrance examination was not difficult for her at all. She passed the exam very smoothly. After the last test, she was completely opposite to the other candidates who looked like a concubine. She looked relaxed. And comfortable.
After Zhao Shijian also came out of the examination room, she quickly asked: "How did the exam go? Brother, are you sure you will pass?"
Zhao Shijian nodded, with a faint smile on his face, and said, "I did pretty well. This college entrance examination is not as difficult as I thought."
"It seems that brother is very confident." Zhao Shichu joked, "You think it's not difficult, but others don't think so. Look around you, there are a lot of depressed expressions."
Zhao Shijian looked at the candidates who were coming out one after another, and found that there were not many who looked as relaxed as the two brothers and sisters, and more of them looked depressed and sad.
"Then let's keep a low profile." Zhao Shijian said quickly. If you sneered at this time, you would be easily beaten with a sack.
"Oh! Judging from Wen Yishu's appearance, she doesn't seem to have done well in the exam." Zhao Shichu had sharp eyes and inadvertently saw Wen Yishu with a bloodless face. Her face was extremely ugly, and she hurriedly walked out with her head lowered. .
Zhao Shijian glanced at it and said, "Don't pay too much attention to other people's affairs."
"Okay, okay." Zhao Shichu said.
After the college entrance examination, there was no need to review again. The study that had lasted for two years suddenly stopped, and neither Zhao Shijian nor Zhao Shichu felt accustomed to it.
Now they just need to wait for the results to come out and receive the admission notice - they don't think they will fail the exam.
