Hua Cui put her arms around Zhao Qiming's neck and kissed his earlobe intimately. She watched as the skin turned red visibly, gradually becoming hot, and then spread to the entire face.
"This is my reward, do you like it~"
The color of Zhao Qiming's exposed skin deepened by another degree. He did not answer. Hua Cui pinched him dissatisfied, and then he nodded slowly and replied implicitly: "I like it."
Hua Cui thinks it's fun to tease Brother Xiao Ming occasionally.
"Brother Xiao Ming, we are going home."
Although the college entrance examination has officially ended, there is still some time before the results are released. Hua Cuike heard that some families will do anything to keep their wives.
Hua Cui had no intention of breaking up with Zhao Qiming right now. What if he was reluctant to leave alone and secretly made a stumbling block?
For example, withholding her acceptance letter.
Huacui decided to draw more cakes to confuse people: "Brother Xiao Ming, don't worry, when I am admitted to college, I will be doubly good to you and my daughter!"
"...Okay."
Hua Cui originally buried her head in Zhao Qiming's back. In winter, when the wind in the valley was strong, his back became her "warm haven" to avoid the wind.
When she heard his answer, she suddenly looked up strangely. Zhao Qiming was looking calmly ahead. He stepped on the bicycle pedal to avoid a quagmire on the road.
Is it her delusion? Why did he feel like he was smiling?
A very strange laugh.
Huacui didn't worry too much. When she returned to Zhao's house, Li Guifang knew that she had finished her exam in the morning and specially cooked a large table of dishes at home.
The Zhao family is sincerely happy for Hua Cui. Everyone has seen her efforts these days. Even Chen Lili has pulled Niu Niu more than once and asked her to follow Hua Cui's example and study hard to serve the society in the future.
Hua Cui stood in the yard rubbing her hands to breathe. She didn't have a down jacket. The winter here relied on her whole body to be upright and wrapped in layers of cotton-padded sweaters.
Li Guifang quickly greeted her: "Is it cold outside? Come in and warm yourself up first."
Huacui really loves and hates the most primitive way of cooking fires in rural areas. Li Guifang likes to light fires in the side room. Pieces of bacon are hung on the wall. The fire lit below can not only keep warm, but also smoke the meat.
The fire burns loudly and vigorously, and your body will be toasted in no time. The only drawback is that you cannot "take into account the overall situation."
At this moment, Hua Cui felt like a duck in an oven. She turned around so that her body could be heated more evenly.
Her movements are a little cute and a little funny. She turns left to grill her right half, and then turns right to grill her left body. From time to time, she turns 180 degrees to face the fire to grill her back, and then repeats this set of actions.
Li Guifang didn't know that there was a word called "cute", and she didn't even know what "the landowner's silly daughter" meant. She just thought that these actions were particularly fun on Hua Cui, which made her laugh for a long time last time.
Hua Cui was leaning over the fire to warm herself up. Li Guifang came in and saw her and reminded her: "Don't get too close. Be careful of the fire burning your hair. Come out to eat as soon as it's warm."
"Yeah, I know~"
The table was full of dishes, which was no worse than the New Year's Eve dinner. It was enough to show that Li Guifang valued Hua Cui, and she was really happy for her.
Even Zhao Fuguo, who was always taciturn at home, specially took out a wine glass to celebrate the successful conclusion of Huacui's college entrance examination.
The results haven't been released yet, but everyone is convinced that Huacui will not be bad, unless God is not discerning!
Huacui didn't drink, so Zhao Qiming did all the work for her. She silently accepted the blessings from the elders of the Zhao family.
If, she thought, if Li Guifang was still willing to be kind to her from the bottom of her heart after she and Xiao Ming's brother Goodbye, then she wouldn't be able to come back to the village to see her every year and festival.
Although the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has broken down, they can still be best friends.
Hua Cui thought so happily that she almost made herself laugh.
After dinner, Guan Yingying couldn't wait to come to her for answers, and Huacui told her all the answers she could recall.
Guan Yingying clenched her fists nervously, frowning for a while while listening to the answer, and then relaxed her brows for a while.
Finally, she patted her chest gently: "It's better than I imagined. I thought I did it all wrong."
Hua Cui curled her lips: "If you don't believe in yourself, you have to believe in me. You are my student!"
Speaking of this, Guan Yingying couldn't help but be grateful for the help Huacui gave her. She couldn't express her gratitude, but said sincerely: "I definitely wouldn't be able to do it without you. Thanks to you!"
Huacui shrugged and said nothing. For her, it was just a little effort. Guan Yingying had taken good care of her before, and now she could repay her.
"I hope I can get my results soon, otherwise I won't be able to eat anything these days."
"Then it's over. You'll be hungry for a month."
Guan Yingying's eyes widened: "It's been so long."
"It may not be accurate, I'm just guessing." In later generations, it took about ten or twenty days for the college entrance examination to be completed and the results to be released. Even with the participation of machines, this era was all done manually. Hua Cui deliberately relaxed the time limit by ten days.
Guan Yingying now trusts Hua Cui so much that she grits her teeth: "Forget it, wait, if you can really pass the exam, it will be worth starving for a month!"
Anyway, when I first went to the countryside, it was common to be hungry, but now my life is better. "No, no, sister Yingying, but I will feel bad if you lose weight due to hunger."
Guan Yingying was stunned for a moment, then she covered her heart.
It’s no wonder that everyone likes Huacui, she’s so considerate to the core of her heart, who can resist this? She can't anyway!
You’re not hungry anymore, you’re not hungry anymore, you must eat stronger!
*
The days pass with the anticipation of many candidates. The enthusiasm brought by the college entrance examination is slowly fading, and everyone has returned to their normal life.
There are even people who don’t understand the college entrance examination and think that this matter will never happen again. They can’t help but laugh in their hearts. They thought it was so great when there was such a big fight some time ago, but now they still have to work in the fields!
cut!
Huacui's prediction was about the same time. One month later, the college entrance examination results came out. Chen Guiyi was the first person in the village to receive the admission notice. At that time, she was carrying a bucket to water the vegetables in the yard.
The postman in navy blue overalls knocked on the door of her courtyard, and Chen Guiyi opened the door. The postman first said "congratulations" with a smile, and then handed her the admission notice in his bag.
"Chen Guiyi, right? This is your admission notice, right?"
"Hmm... um..." Chen Guiyi was a little dazed, nervous and excited. She took the notice completely based on her body instinct and stared at the notice in her hand carefully. She read it three times before confirming that she had really passed the exam. !
Chen Guiyi's breath was suffocated. As if she suddenly reacted, she dropped the water ladle in her hand and rushed out of the door holding the notice.
Her younger brother was squatting at the door and cracking pumpkin seeds. Seeing this scene, he rolled his eyes: "Tsk, I passed the exam just because I passed the exam. What's the big deal!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone suddenly kicked him in the butt. After all, it was his precious son. Chen Daqiang didn’t use too much force. He hated iron and said: "You still have the nerve to say it!"
"How dare you kick me!"
"I am your father, so I can't kick you?"
"It won't work even if your father comes!"
"This is outrageous."
There was another commotion, and the postman frowned at the two noisy people in the yard. He suppressed the disgusted and bored expression on his face and walked away silently.
Anyway, he is only responsible for delivering the notice, as long as it is delivered, nothing else has anything to do with him.
On the other side, Chen Guiyi held the notice and the first thing she thought of was Hua Cui. She had no one else to share it with, and she just wanted to be the first to tell Hua Cui the good news.
"Wow, have you received the notice?"
Chen Guiyi nodded heavily: "Yes!"
"Congratulations!" Hua Cui was naturally happy for her.
Li Guifang poked her head over. Some time ago, Chen Guiyi came to the house to help every day. She stopped coming without saying anything after the exam. It was Hua Cui who refused her over and over again and stopped coming again. Li Guifang had a good impression of her, and she was a diligent and sensible child.
But she was more worried about Hua Cui: "What about Cuicui, why hasn't she gotten the notice yet?"
Chen Guiyi said hurriedly: "Auntie, don't worry, it may just be a matter of time. I am the first in our village, and the others are still behind."
Li Guifang thought the same thing. All these students had passed the exam. There was no reason why the teacher who was a teacher had not passed the exam. There must be more to come.
A few days later, all the candidates in the village got their admission notices one after another. Even Guan Yingying got the notice that she had been thinking about two days ago, but Huacui still had no movement.
Li Guifang was so anxious that she walked around the room: "Is there something wrong? Everyone else has received the notice, why doesn't Cuicui? It shouldn't be."
Zhao Fuguo was helpless by her nagging: "Don't be anxious, Huacui is not anxious, why are you anxious?"
Li Guifang glared at him: "What can she understand if she is heartless? If there is any problem, it must be solved early. What if it is too late later?"
"What problem can there be? The country attaches so much importance to this matter, there can be no problem! Maybe it is just that the speed is a bit slow."
"I still feel something is wrong. Why is it that other people are not slow, but our turn is so slow? That's what you said."
Zhao Fuguo couldn't answer, and he felt strange, so he persuaded Li Guifang to calm down and wait a few more days. If there was no news, they would think of a solution.
Seeing that everyone else had received the admission notice, there was still no news about Huacui. Many people in the village speculated that Huacui might have failed to get into college. People who had been rejected by Huacui in the past took the opportunity to ridicule her.
"If you can't even go to college, you still have to teach others. Don't delay others. Fortunately, our children didn't go there in the first place!"
Of course, there are more people who are clear-minded and rational, and they were laughed at by the crowd as soon as they said this.
"Didn't your child also fail the exam?"
"You say grapes are sour when you can't eat them. Who almost knelt down at someone's door and begged for advice?"
"I think even if they can't pass the exam, they are still better than your children."
"Besides, there is still time. What if someone passes the exam?"
There are all kinds of rumors outside, whether they are true or false, Hua Cui doesn't care, and she doesn't feel nervous or not, she just lives her life as she wants every day.
With that bite in her head, Li Guifang felt that she was really not in a hurry while the emperor was in a hurry.
Zhao Qiming was also puzzled as to why Huacui was the only one who didn't have an admission notice. Instead of asking Huacui if she was unhappy, he got up early in the morning and rode to the county town to ask about the situation.
"How do we know this? Just wait patiently if you don't receive it, or you didn't pass the exam." The staff in the bureau are quite impatient. There have been too many people asking about this matter in the past few days.
I really don’t know what to do!
If you haven’t received the notice yet, you probably didn’t pass the exam!
