"Whether we are sincere or not is a matter between us. Madam and aunt, you haven't settled your own family matters well, how can you have so much energy to care about me?" Zhao Shichu said sarcastically, and then looked at Wen Yishu aside, "Why? You educated youth, didn't your mother-in-law and sister-in-law ask you to feed the chickens and do the laundry today? Why are you free to come out and chat with everyone?"
As soon as she said this, Wen Yishu blushed with embarrassment. She loved face most. Although she had always been bullied by her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law at home, she never wanted to be known to others, especially the brother and sister Zhao Shichu. Marrying is to live a good life. Who knew that life would be more difficult than when she was single? How could she face Zhao Shichu and Zhao Shijian?
At this moment, Zhao Shichu's words exposed her self-deception. Why didn't she feel embarrassed and speechless?
"...What does it have to do with you whether I feed the chickens or wash the clothes?" Wen Yishu shouted guiltily, "This village is not your home, why can't I come and chat with people?"
Zhao Shichu sarcastically said: "Then how Ye Song repays our family is none of your business? You should worry more about yourself."
Zhao Shichu denounced Wen Yishu and the villagers who were gossiping, and left quickly. She was too lazy to talk to these people. Anyway, they would leave here soon to go to college.
The admission notices from Zhao Shichu and Zhao Shijian arrived on the same day. As soon as the postman arrived at the village, he started shouting excitedly: "The admission notice from Beijing University is here! It's from Zhao Shichu and Zhao Shijian!"
When the people in the village heard the postman's words, whether they were fellow villagers or educated youths, they immediately became excited. They could no longer care about the work at hand and surrounded the postman one after another.
"Is it really the admission notice from Beijing University? Or is it from the two brothers Zhao Shijian?"
"Notice from the postman, you must have read it wrong, right? How could the brother and sister be admitted to Capital University?"
"This is impossible! This kid Zhao Shijian dropped out of junior high school before finishing junior high school. How could he be admitted to college!"
"And Zhao Niu'er, she doesn't like to study either."
…
The postman was surrounded tightly by everyone, so he had to get off his bicycle, push the bicycle towards Zhao's house, and say to everyone: "Everyone, give way! I'm going to Zhao's house, don't surround me so tightly..." "
As soon as he said this, the people surrounding him made way for him to push his bicycle towards Zhao's house.
"Comrade postman, did you read correctly? The admission notice really belongs to the brother and sister?" someone asked anxiously.
The young postman immediately replied confidently: "I can't be wrong! The names of Zhao Shichu and Zhao Shijian are written on the envelope of the admission notice. I read it several times!"
"Those brothers and sisters are really lucky..." someone said sourly.
Another educated youth who also took the college entrance examination asked anxiously: "Besides these two notices, are there any other schools?"
"That's not true, but you don't have to worry too much. Notices from other schools will arrive one after another." The postman comforted.
A group of people followed the postman to Zhao's house. It was winter and there was not much work to do. Zhao Shichu and Zhao Shijian were both at home. Children had already come to Zhao's house excitedly after what the postman said at the end of the village. He had told the brothers and sisters in advance. , so they already know that they are really admitted to college.
Zhao Shijian was so excited that he rushed out of the door to greet the postman and asked with a trembling voice: "Comrade! Do you really have my admission notice?"
"Are you Zhao Shijian? Yes!" the postman said, taking out two letters from his bag and handing one to him, "Here you go."
】
"There is another letter from Zhao Shichu." The postman said again, and Zhao Shichu quickly said, "It's me, give it to me."
The postman immediately said with envy: "So you are still brother and sister. You are so awesome. You have both been admitted to Beijing University."
"Zhao Shijian! Open it quickly and take a look. We haven't seen the admission notice from Beijing University yet!" Someone shouted to Zhao Shijian out of curiosity.
"That's right! Open our eyes too!" Someone else echoed.
So Zhao Shijian opened the letter on the spot, read it by himself, and was urged to read the notice once, and then the notice was passed around in everyone's hands.
While everyone was talking to Zhao Shijian and Zhao Shichu with congratulations, jealousy or admiration, suddenly a sharp female voice came from outside the door: "Impossible! How could Zhao Shijian and Zhao Shichu be admitted to Beijing University?! It must be a fake. !”
Then Wen Yishu, who rushed in with a pale face and a look of disbelief. As soon as she said this, the voices in the yard suddenly stopped. Everyone looked at Wen Yishu in shock, who seemed to have been hit hard. She didn't understand why she was upset when the Zhao brothers and sisters were admitted to college.
"Wen Yishu, the admission notices for my sister and I are absolutely true. Why do you say that our brother and sister can't pass the exam? My sister and I have been reviewing every night since we learned that the college entrance examination was resumed, and we have never slacked off for a day! Moreover, , now that Mr. Ye has been taken back by his son, I am not afraid to say it. Most of my sister and I’s homework were taught by him. Mr. Ye used to be a university professor, and he was more than enough to teach us both. We passed the exams It's normal to go to college. If you don't pass, you'll be sorry for his careful teaching." Zhao Shijian said to Wen Yishu seriously with a cold face.
"Old man Ye was asked to teach me, no wonder! Let me just say, they obviously dropped out of school long ago, why did they suddenly get admitted to college..."
"Damn! Why didn't I think of asking Old Man Ye for guidance before? Oh my, what a pity. If I had known I would have gone to Old Man Ye too!"
"These two brothers and sisters are so stupid. They secretly went to Old Man Ye to ask for advice without telling us. It's so selfish..."
"Are you mentally ill? At that time, Old Man Ye had not recovered his identity and reputation. It would be a big risk to ask him to tutor you. Do you dare to go?"
…
After listening to Zhao Shijian's words, everyone talked a lot. Those who took the college entrance examination were annoyed that they did not think of asking Old Man Ye for advice. Those who did not participate thought they knew the reason why the Zhao brothers and sisters were admitted to college. Wen Yishu listened. , my heart was filled with mixed emotions and my mind was churning.
She looked at Zhao Shijian blankly, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she murmured: "I missed another opportunity? I missed it again..." As she spoke, she suddenly covered her face and whimpered. I started crying until I was out of breath.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion, not understanding why she was crying in front of Zhao's house. Zhao Shichu could understand a little or two about her psychology. Didn't he just not expect that he could ask Ye Song for homework? It seems that Wen Yishu must have failed in the college entrance examination this time, otherwise she would not have collapsed and cried in front of herself and her elder brother.
