Chapter 35

The next day, the provincial party committee compound.

The usually quiet Lao Ma's house was rarely lively, and the laughter never stopped. The old couple had a great time playing with Congcong and Yueyue.

Near noon, Qu Xiuzhen suggested making dumplings.

Qu Xiuzhen has a vigorous personality, everything is prepared at home, so she can do it as soon as she says it, and immediately distribute the work. Wang Zhong is in charge of kneading the dough, Qu Xiuzhen is in charge of rolling the skin, and Zheng Juan is in charge of making dumplings.

As for Lao Ma, it would be good if he didn't make trouble, so Qu Xiuzhen arranged for him to take care of the children.

Ma Shouchang was quite happy at first, playing outside with his two children, but after playing for a while, the two children saw how busy the place was, so they insisted on coming over, and even volunteered to make dumplings with Zheng Juan.

The two little ones usually help Li Suhua make dumplings at home, and in this respect, Zhou Cong's talent is not bad.

The two little guys stood around the table, standing on a small stool, each holding a piece of bamboo and a dumpling wrapper.

"Grandma Qu, look!" After a while, Zhou Cong held the similar-looking dumpling in his palm like offering a treasure, and handed it to Qu Xiuzhen to claim credit.

"Congcong is really good, and the bag is so pretty."

"Grandma Qu, Grandma Qu, this is mine!" Feng Yue was not to be outdone.

The smile on Qu Xiuzhen's face was kind and bright: "Yes! Not bad, Yueyue's bag is also very good!"

Ma Shou also felt itchy when he saw it, so he picked up the dumpling wrappers and wrapped them up. The dumplings were crooked, and he was ashamed to compare them with the two smaller ones.

Seeing the old urchin and the two little urchins playing vigorously, everyone also showed cheerful smiles on their faces.

Satisfied with food and drink, Qu Xiuzhen and Zheng Juan were cleaning up the mess in the kitchen. The two children were brought to the yard by Wang Zhong and Ma Shouchang. Looking at the two children.

"After the exam, how do you feel? Are you confident?"

Although Ma Shouchang was not in charge of education, he knew the importance of education. Not only did Wang Zhong save him, but he and Qu Xiuzhen loved and recognized him both in terms of character and ability.

"I've done everything I know how to do. As for the result, that's not something I should worry about." Wang Zhong was very calm, "But this time the topic is simple, and the result should be pretty good."

Ma Shouchang raised his finger and pointed at Wang Zhong, and said with a smile: "Others fill in their volunteers, they all fill in three or four schools. If one fails, you can go to another one. It's good for you, kid. You fill in Mizuki for all three volunteers. Are you not afraid of not having enough points and falling off the list?"

"I'm lucky if I get it, but my life is lost!" Wang Zhong said with a smile.

"It's an old saying, it's better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. Mizuki is one of the top universities in the country. I didn't dare to think about it before, but now that I have the opportunity, of course I have to give it a try. If Mizuki can't go, Those other universities, it doesn’t matter if you don’t go.”

"Hahaha!"

Ma Shouchang patted his thigh, pointed at Wang Zhong, a little excited: "Good boy, have ambition."

"This spirit is high enough, it suits my appetite! Hahaha!" There was another burst of laughter as he spoke.

"As a human being, you have to pursue something."

After being happy for a while, Ma Shouchang suddenly asked curiously: "By the way, I see that your articles and novels are very good. Why didn't you want to go to the Department of Literature, but applied to the Department of Architecture instead?"

Wang Zhongdao: "Writing articles and novels are all for the sake of supporting the family. Besides, our country is in dire straits, and we are far behind in terms of infrastructure construction compared to the beautiful country and the big brother in the north. There is still some interest in this line of work, if you can really learn something and contribute to the realization of the construction of the four modernizations in the future, it will be worthwhile."

This is not nonsense to fool Ma Shouchang, Wang Zhong does have this meaning.

And no one stipulated that after Wang Zhong went to Shuimu, he could only learn the professional knowledge of civil engineering.

In the universities of later generations, there are two majors but three majors. There are too many people with several degrees at the same time. Others can, why can't I?
"Yeah, you kid has the right idea in his mind, but I'm overthinking it."

······
The results of the college entrance examination came out soon, and the admission letter of Shuimu University was also sent to Lao Zhou's house.

But Li Suhua was overjoyed, and her son was also the number one student in the college entrance examination in Jiangliao Province, with a total score of 495, perfect scores in mathematics, physics, and chemistry.

The news that Lao Zhou's youngest son was admitted to Shuimu University spread throughout the entire optical film in just half a day.

It has become a great thing that everyone talks about.

That is Shuimu University, like Yanda University, the top university in the country, being admitted to Shuimu University is just like getting a Jinshi before, this is a big event that is enough to honor the ancestors.

The surprise is much more than that.

Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong also sent telegrams back. They also took the college entrance examination. Zhou Bingyi was admitted to the Department of Philosophy of Yanda University, Zhou Rong was admitted to the Department of Literature of Yanda University, and even Hao Dongmei was admitted to the local medical school in Jichun.

His son, daughter, and daughter-in-law are all about to become college students. Li Suhua was so happy that he almost felt overwhelmed with excitement.

The news that the three sons of the old Zhou family had all been admitted to college caused a complete sensation in the entire optical film.

Everyone said that old Zhou's house was smoked from the ancestral grave, otherwise how could three stars of Wenqu pop up all of a sudden.

Li Suhua is walking on the road now, people are floating.

Zhou Bingyi also made a special trip to the mountain city to visit his father, Zhou Zhigang, who was supporting the construction of the third front line, and told him the good news personally. Zhou Zhigang was so happy that he couldn't sleep for several days, but he was still in good spirits. Old Comrade Zhou ate meat for three consecutive days for the first time.

He told everyone that his three sons and daughters were admitted to Yanda University and Shuimu, and received countless congratulations and envy.

On the side of the text film, this Spring Festival was much more festive than usual. Wang Zhong even bought two firecrackers specially, which made Zhou Cong scream excitedly, clamoring to buy firecrackers to set off.

But after being happy, what awaits the old Zhou's family is a hard parting.

Wang Zhong bought a train ticket for the sixth day, and Zheng Juan had already helped Wang Zhong pack his luggage on the fifth day.

Knowing that Wang Zhong will leave on the sixth day of the new year, Li Suhua's mood will not be very good immediately. Fortunately, there are still grandchildren and granddaughters, so she is not too sad, but just reluctant.

His son went to Yanjing to go to university for the sake of his future. Although Li Suhua was reluctant to give up, he didn't want to hold his son back.

On the morning of the sixth day, after breakfast, Wang Zhong was ready to go out with his luggage.

Li Suhua originally wanted to send it to the train station, but was rejected by Wang Zhong.

Letting Li Suhua send Wang Zhong alone is not at ease. If Zheng Juan is brought along, Guangming will not be able to take care of the four children at home alone, especially the two little troublemakers Zhou Cong and Yueyue.

It would be too troublesome to bring them all, so Wang Zhong simply refused to let them send them. Anyway, if all goes well, the family will be reunited in Yanjing soon.

Before going out, Li Suhua's eyes filled with tears again, and he took Wang Zhong's hand and told him again and again: "Be careful on the road, you must keep the money and ticket close to you."

Before leaving, Wang Zhong went to exchange a batch of national food coupons.

"Don't worry, Mom!" Wang Zhong patted Li Suhua's hand and replied softly.

"Congcong, Yueyue, you two are little adults now, I'm not at home, you have to help grandma and the others take care of your younger siblings, study hard, understand?"

"Understood!" The two cubs responded in unison.

"Especially you, Zhou Cong!" Wang Zhong still didn't forget to teach his own monkey with a straight face: "Listen to mom and grandma, don't cause trouble for me, do you hear me!"

Zhou Cong immediately stood upright, and repeatedly assured: "Dad, don't worry, I will be obedient."

Feng Yue also said crisply: "Uncle, don't worry, Yueyue will be obedient."

Wang Zhong held Zheng Juan's hand, and said softly, "I'm leaving, you can take care of me at home for the time being, and I'll send a telegram to inform you when my side settles down."

Zheng Juan looked at Wang Zhong and said, "Don't worry, there are me and Mom at home!"
