Qin Lingling filled the cups of the two of them with water, and was about to go to the kitchen to cut watermelon and give them time to chat alone.

But when she was about to leave, Jiang Xiaoben shouted: "Sister-in-law, you don't need to go out, I have something to tell you, I want to talk to you."

Qin Lingling nodded and replied, "Then I will take the watermelon to soak it cold, and I will come in later."

When Qin Lingling left, Jiang Xiaoben talked about family affairs.

"Yaoyao, my parents agreed to go to the Shenzhen market."

"real?"

"Yeah." When Jiang Xiaoben said this, he expressed a little excitement. After only a moment, he hesitated and said: "But..."

"But what?"

"But if I really go to Shenzhen, we will have to wait a long time to see each other."

Gu Yao was taken aback, and didn't say anything.

She had thought about this issue before, but she didn't take it to heart soon, thinking about it is not a big deal, anyway, they are not married yet, so it's okay for them to work harder and harder.

But thinking about not seeing Jiang Xiaoben for too long, she was also quite reluctant to bear it.

Qin Lingling just came over and pulled Gu Yao's thoughts back.

She gave up her position and shouted: "Sister-in-law, sit here."

After that, she quickly stripped the lotus seed that Jiang Xiaoben had brought to her sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law, you eat this lotus seed, it's delicious."

Qin Lingling took it and said thank you.

She has always kept her sister-in-law about Gu Yao, so after Qin Lingling sat down, Gu Yao repeated what Jiang Xiaoben had just said to her.

"Little Ben is going to Shenzhen?" Qin Lingling asked.

Jiang Xiaoben nodded, "Well, I have this plan."

"Why do you want to go to the Shenzhen market?" Qin Lingling asked back.

It is still in 1977. After the conference was held in 1978, Shenzhen City was listed as the first choice for reform and opening up, and that place changed rapidly.

Of course, although Shenzhen City is still called a small fishing village, it is not a small place compared to their county town. The city closest to Hong Kong City and its unique terrain make it the first choice for many people to work and set up factories.

Jiang Xiaoben told Qin Lingling about what he had learned from his cousin, saying that there would be more opportunities if it was close to Hong Kong City. With the end of ten years of sports in the past year, many places have been developing rapidly. Now, he also wants to go for a while to see if there are other opportunities.

He said, "I can't take Yaoyao in the countryside all my life, I want to go for a break."

Despite the fact that the situation is still unstable, many people who are brave enough to secretly do business have already made a lot of money. From the beginning, Jiang Xiaoben was not a person who lives in the countryside, so he was naturally moved. .

This is the first time that Qin Lingling has learned about these things from Jiang Xiaoben's mouth, knowing that this is an aspiring man.

"When do you want to go?"

Jiang Xiaoben shook his head, "It hasn't been determined yet, but I should go after this year!"

He knows that it always takes some time to plan and set off.

Qin Lingling nodded, "It's good if you have a plan in your heart, and it's good for a man to go out and break through. Then Yaoyao, what do you think in your heart?"

With the support of his sister-in-law, Gu Yao said without hesitation: "Sister-in-law, I don't understand this, but since Jiang Xiaoben wants to go, let's go. As he said, you can't live in the countryside forever."

Although in recent years, the poor, low and middle peasants like them have made them proud of themselves, but at the same time they are proud, they actually yearn for a prosperous and relaxed life in the city. No one wants to be born to work and be exhausted. To live a lifetime, everyone wants to go to the city to enjoy a better life, especially when radio, television and movies are popular, everyone's yearning for the city is stronger than that of later generations.

With the support of the two sisters-in-law, Jiang Xiaoben was very happy and said, "I should go with my cousin then, Yaoyao, you can have a better life when I earn money."

"Well, I believe you."

After Jiang Xiaoben had finished speaking, Qin Lingling went to cut the watermelon, sent it to the two, and a few yuan to the next door, and then went to work on her own affairs, leaving the rare time for the two to get along.

Jiang Xiaoben didn't stay long, and soon rode his bicycle back.

Gu Yao was in a daze when Qin Lingling came back.

"What's the matter?" Qin Lingling came in carrying a basket and asked.

"Sister-in-law, I'm actually a little bit reluctant." Gu Yao muttered with her hands on her chin.

Qin Lingling knew that she was referring to reluctant Jiang Xiaoben to go to Shenzhen.

"But he wants to go, there must be his reason, I can't be so selfish."

Gu Yao knew that what Jiang Xiaoben thought was right, so even if she felt uncomfortable now, she still felt that she should do it like this.

Qin Lingling patted her shoulder, comforting, "Don't worry, when he goes to the Shenzhen market, maybe you want to follow him, too. Then you can be together too!"

"Ah? Sister-in-law, can I go too?" Gu Yao obviously didn't think of this level.

Qin Lingling smiled and said: "Yes, he can go, why can't you go? Now the country is getting better and better. Maybe next year, there will be many policies that are good for us, and then you can also go. Anyway, there is much hope in the future, so you don’t have to worry about it."

Because he could glimpse the development of history, Qin Lingling expressed a hundred approval for Jiang Xiaoben's desire to go to Shenzhen.

After the reform and opening up in 1978, the Shenzhen market will undergo earth-shaking changes. If Jiang Xiaoben is a capable person, in that city full of opportunities, no matter how bad it is, he should be able to make a little money.

Qin Lingling stayed at home for more than a month as the busy farming double grab came to an end.

It was already the end of August, and Qin Lingling was all black.

During this period, Yang Qin visited her several times, borrowing books and returning books, and brought a lot of fruits to visit her every time.

Qin Lingling didn't dare to take credit, only saying that she hoped her books would help Yang Qin.

Looking at the distance to announce that the time for the resumption of the college entrance examination is coming soon, Yang Qin finally couldn't help talking to Qin Lingling about the college entrance examination at this moment. After all, it is soon before the college entrance examination is announced. Someone is a bit more powerful, and should be able to receive some wind.

"I heard that various conferences are being held urgently above. It is very likely that the college entrance examination will be resumed." Although she knew that the college entrance examination was about to resume, Yang Qin was very excited when she said this.

You know, she was fascinated by a man in her previous life, and followed him stupidly. When she recovered from the college entrance examination, she did not choose to learn to participate in the college entrance examination, and missed the important moment that changed her life.

So this time, she did it again, and she had to study hard to say everything.

Speaking of which, when Yang Qin studied **** the farm before, many people laughed at her secretly. She was stupid. She has graduated from high school and is not young anymore. There is really no need to study so seriously. No one tells you about you when you read books. Everyone is a kid who desires knowledge, but you are a bit silly to review all the books in all subjects.

People with good relationships will persuade her not to spend too much energy on this aspect, and to enjoy group activities with other educated youths instead of studying alone in the dormitory.

Those who had a bad relationship with them laughed at her behind their backs, sometimes even mocking her face to face.

Yang Qin knows what those people say about her being stupid, but no matter how stupid she is, she feels happy and worth it. On the contrary, those who scold her behind, she thinks they are ignorant.

Nowadays, the meeting held above on the restoration of the college entrance examination is somewhat related to the families of many educated youths on the farm. As long as someone knows this, it is easy to pass it on.

In the past half month, more and more people have heard about the "recovery of the college entrance examination", and many people have become nervous, and secretly said: "Is the college entrance examination really going to be resumed?"

Although there is no definite notification about this matter, everyone can see the tremendous changes that have taken place during the year. Therefore, even if the college entrance examination is restored, it is not surprising.

Until now, when everyone looked at Yang Qin again, they realized that Yang Qin's hard work was really not stupid. On the contrary, she was too prescient!

Many people are looking forward to the restoration of the college entrance examination to change their lives. This will look at Yang Qin again, and they dare not despise it. On the contrary, they are a little surprised how she has foreseen all this so long ago?

Of course, Yang Qin told them that he simply wanted to learn and hoped that one day he would return to the city and have the opportunity to be a teacher in the future.

Some people retorted that even if she was a teacher, she didn't have to learn everything, and that was not to be an all-round teacher. Yang Qin only smiled, without explaining much.

And soon, some people also studied with Yang Qin, for fear that the college entrance examination would really resume, and they would not be able to keep up with the freshmen.

Many people have returned their knowledge to their teachers, and learning again is not so easy. Yang Qin quickly became their teacher, solving problems and explaining.

Of course, some people worry about the resumption of the college entrance examination and fail to keep up with the pace and are studying hard, while others do not believe that the college entrance examination has been cancelled for ten years and suddenly resumed.

Gradually, the farm was divided into two factions, one is believed to be able to take the college entrance examination, and studied hard with Yang Qin. And this part of people accounted for a minority. Most educated youth have gone to the countryside for many years, and this knowledge has already been returned to the school, so most of them don't believe it.

When Yang Qin said this to Qin Lingling, unlike others' doubts, Qin Lingling nodded without hesitation and said: "I have heard about this too, and it should be implemented soon."

Yang Qin was taken aback, "Have you heard that too? Who did you listen to?"

Of course Qin Lingling hasn't heard of it, because most people don't know about the education conference held in the country, but people who have their own way can hear about it.

When Yang Qin watched in surprise, Qin Lingling had to lied and said, "Doesn't I have relatives in Yangcheng? I heard from a relative that they know a lot of people in their family, but I heard that it is unclear."

"Oh, I see."

Yang Qin was dubious about Qin Lingling's words, but no matter what, the two of them worked hard and they were all useful.

Before leaving, Yang Qin also told Qin Lingling to study hard.

"If we really resume the college entrance examination, we will be able to seize the opportunity, even if we can't recover, we know a little bit more knowledge, can we be a teacher in the future?"

"Um."

"If we can be admitted to university, the future will not be easy."

Yang Qin thought of those college students who were admitted to the university after the resumption of the college entrance examination in his previous life. The country where they studied was supplemented, and the country where they graduated was allocated. The better.

Thinking of these, Yang Qin feels that this life is still full of hope.

After sending Yang Qin away, Qin Lingling should also prepare to return to the army to reunite with Gu Zheng.

On the day he left, Gu Yao still cried.

Qin Lingling repeatedly said that she would be back soon, which was considered as coaxing Gu Yao.

The other Gu Guoqiang and Gu Chunhua also looked reluctant. Gu Guoqiang asked how soon she could come back? Qin Lingling said, coming soon.

When he was leaving, Gu Guoqiang suddenly pulled her aside and asked her seriously with curiosity, "Sister-in-law, can I join the army and serve as a soldier?"

Qin Lingling was taken aback when he was asked, and thought of Li Dani's abuse of him at home before being kicked by a donkey.

Hurriedly asked: "Why do you suddenly ask like this? Do you want to be a soldier?"

Gu Guoqiang thought for a while and nodded seriously, "Sister-in-law, I think so, I want to be a soldier."

"It's very tiring to be a soldier, not as easy as you think."

Gu Guoqiang scratched his head, "I know too, but I don't want to be in this village for the rest of my life, I want to go out."

Although Gu Guoqiang is a bear kid and very distressed, he doesn't want to stay in this mountain village forever.

He doesn't like farming. He doesn't like to go to work in the fields every morning and go home at night.

Thinking that people would be like this all their lives, he felt that it would be better to serve as a soldier and fight a war instead of spending his entire life in the countryside. There was no hope.

Because of this, Qin Lingling asked Gu Guoqiang seriously about his thoughts, asking if he really wanted to be a soldier?

And from Gu Guoqiang's words, Qin Lingling understood that this bear kid didn't really want to be a soldier. He simply felt that there was no hope in Xiaogu Village for the rest of his life, and that he didn't eat well and dressed well.

Their family is not like other families. There are more powerful relatives in the city who can help each other. They don't. If they rely on themselves, they can only work in the countryside for a lifetime. Therefore, he wants to join the army to enter the barracks and get rid of the status quo.

Seeing his thoughts, Qin Lingling quickly persuaded: "If you just don't want to spend your entire life in the countryside and want to go out and do something about it, then you should not be a soldier. Being a soldier is not a joke, it is very hard and tiring. You bear kid definitely can't stand it, and you will have to come back then."

Qin Lingling told him that if conscripts entered the army, if they did not have particularly strong capabilities, they would not continue to serve. After the end of the voluntary year of joining the army, they still had to return home, and then they had to return to their original lives.

Gu Guoqiang didn't expect it to be like this, "It sounds like it's not good to be a soldier after hearing this!"

"Anyway, if you just want to get rid of your current life, then don't think about being a soldier. It's not something you can do with a single shot of your forehead. The allowance is not as much as you think. You need to earn it yourself. Yes. If you simply want to leave Xiaogu Village and go out, then you can stay at home for two years. After two years, your sister-in-law will take you out."

"Really?" Gu Guoqiang's eyes lit up suddenly, and he looked at his sister-in-law in disbelief, "Sister-in-law, what you said is true, you want to take me out?"

"Really." Qin Lingling nodded, "I assure you, as long as you stay at home for the past two years, I will take you out in the future."

In less than two years, there will be more opportunities outside. Let alone Gu Guoqiang, even Gu Chunhua wants to take it out. When that happens, she will develop her career and bring a few small children to live a good life.

Although Qin Lingling's words moved Gu Guoqiang's heart, after he was excited, he still said uncertainly: "Sister-in-law, are you lying to me? Can you really take me out?"

"certainly."

"Then my sister..."

"You don't have to worry about her."

"Oh." Gu Guoqiang didn't think too much, seeing that it was Qin Lingling's promise. It can't be a lie. His sister-in-law is different from his mother.

"Well, then I will believe you once, and hope you don't let me down."

With Qin Lingling's promise, Gu Guoqiang was relieved.

After Qin Lingling arrived in Yangcheng by car, she did not return to the army to reunite with Gu Zheng, but planned to stay in Yangcheng for one more day.

After reading many of her books, she was ready after all, so she was going to return it, and went to the largest bookstore in Yangcheng by the way to continue looking for books.

The time for the college entrance examination is getting more and more advanced, she just wants to study harder, the title Liang Zhu is biting, no matter what, she must pass the college entrance examination this time.

Following the memory, Qin Lingling found the compound where the Zhang family was located. Because it was not a frequent person, the guard at the gate of the compound had to inform the Zhang family after inquiring, and only after confirmation, could it be released.

The two elders of the Zhang family didn't expect to see Qin Lingling again soon.

All the small ones at home have gone to work, and there are only two elders.

Qin Lingling bought a watermelon and some longan she brought to the elderly.

Seeing her big bag, Mr. Zhang just saw someone and said quickly: "You kid, how come you bring so many things?"

Qin Lingling smiled and replied, "There are not many. I brought the longan myself, and there are some books that I want to return to the third brother."

When the weather was hot, the two hurriedly called her into the house to do it, and then asked Sao Zhao to blow the fan at Qin Lingling.

Qin Lingling smiled and said thank you, and also explained her intentions. One is to return the book, the other is to visit the two elders, and the third is to go to the bookstore to buy books, and then return to the army tomorrow.

Speaking of buying books, the old man had the news he had heard, and said to Qin Lingling: "Lingling likes reading so much, then you really have to read hard this time. Grandpa heard that this is already discussing the resumption of the college entrance examination. Your child is suitable for the college entrance examination, but should he study hard?"

The old lady also said: "Yes, it's all being discussed above. Although this matter has not been passed down yet, but eight or nine are not separated from ten, you are studying hard now, maybe you can still take the exam, the fourth child, also prepares tried."

Zhang Ruimin is the youngest. He is nineteen this year. Although he works as an accountant in a factory and his salary is pretty good in all aspects, the Zhang family hopes that Zhang Ruimin can study and then take the college entrance examination. As for the third brother Zhang Ruixin, he is 23 this year. He said he doesn't want to. Learn to take the college entrance examination again.

Don’t think Zhang Ruixin has only reached the second year of high school, but he has learned a lot of knowledge by himself. In addition, although there is no college entrance examination, there are still many schools with college students. It is just that these college students are not admitted to the college entrance examination, but are specially recruited. Zhang Ruixin It's a special move, but in the end it didn't obey the distribution.

After all, this matter has not been released yet, so although the Zhang family knew about it, they didn’t say it. Only if they knew it, let’s forget about it, lest after saying it, if the resumption of the college entrance examination fails, then others will be happy and have to complain. .

As for Zhang Ruimin, he has been studying hard since he heard about the resumption of the college entrance examination, thinking that if he can resume the college entrance examination and enter the university, then he will be the icing on the cake. If he fails to pass the exam, then he will continue to be his accountant. It's okay to go home with the third brother.

Being so concerned by the two elderly people, Qin Lingling only responded, "Then I really have to study hard. If I can really resume the college entrance examination, then I can also take the university entrance examination, and my job will be better in the future."

"Yes, yes, learn more knowledge, it's always correct," the old lady said.

The old lady's family is considered to be a scholarly family, so she also went to school when she was young, but it was not called a school at that time.

The old man has never read a book, but in order to be able to keep up with the old lady, he learned a lot of knowledge by himself, and also practiced a very good calligraphy. Now that he is older, he has begun to be elegant and play various kinds of chess. Painting and calligraphy, the old lady disliked what he did all day.

"By the way, I brought something for both of you." Qin Lingling said mysteriously.

The old man heard the sound, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he looked at Qin Lingling's opened bag, "What good thing?"

Qin Lingling took out the plastic jar, which contained the cut beans.

"That's it, capers, there is nothing good in the home country, and the bamboo shoots are gone, I just pickled some capers, the fried meat is delicious, or you can eat it when you eat the porridge in the morning."

The author has something to say: there are two more
