Quick Travel: Is it OK to recycle yourself?

"You two have both graduated from high school. If you have an idea, you can go back and read more books and prepare first. It will always be a good idea. But I am not 100% sure. It depends on you."

These two people really treated her like her own sisters, so she just kindly gave them a reminder, and she didn't care whether they believed it or not.

Everyone in the city knew that a leader from the provincial government had come to inspect a while ago, so Qu Nannan took this as an excuse to bring it out, otherwise how could she explain it.

The brother and sister looked at each other. They really believed it. The situation seemed to be much more relaxed this year. Their father also said that it couldn't be like this forever. If society is to develop, changes must be made and the power of educated youth is needed.

It seems that my father was right.

Huang Zhi nodded seriously: "I believe what you said. If society wants to develop, it cannot do without talents. However, people who only graduated from high school and junior high school cannot do some jobs. People with higher education are needed."

Qu Nannan ate a fish ball that was handmade by a robot and was particularly chewy. "Yes, that's what they said. Do you have any ideas?"

Huang Zhi thought for a while and said, "I want to give it a try. I don't want to get married too early because I want to wait a little longer. I don't believe it will always be like this. It will change one day. I didn't expect that I would wait so long."

After the last incident, Huang Quan has started working at the police station, but he is still a temporary worker and has not been converted to a regular employee.

"I want to try it too, but my grades are average and I don't know if I can succeed?" He didn't have much confidence in himself. When he was in school, there were not many people who studied seriously. Everyone was like that, and no one really studied seriously.

"What about you?"

"I know how to take the exam, and I'm a good student. I can't work in a state-owned restaurant for the rest of my life. I want to go out and see the world."

If she fails to pass the college entrance examination, she will have to wait another two years if she wants to go out. She doesn't want to stay in this small city and live a life that she can predict the end of. She would rather go out and see the world.

"Okay, then the three of us will work hard together. I haven't touched a book in several years, and I don't know how much I can remember." She was about to give up this year. It seemed like there would be no end to the wait.

If Nannan hadn't mentioned this today, she would have planned to take off her shoes after the New Year, find a man to marry and live the same life as her mother.

"Okay, you two can come over to my place and study together. I'm keeping all the textbooks. When spring comes, I'll go to the scrap yard to see if there are any other review materials. I've checked the bookstore, but there's nothing useful."

"That's great. I heard that you were always the best student in school. It's a good opportunity for us to review together. We can ask you if we have any questions."

"No problem. I will tell you everything I know."

The three of them were talking and eating, and before they knew it, they had finished all the food on the table. Huang Zhi kicked her brother and said, "Go clean up, and sweep the snow while you're at it."

Huang Quan curled his lips but didn't dare to resist. He started to clean up directly. Qu Nannan didn't stop him. Every time the two of them came over for dinner, it was the responsibility of the brother and sister to clean up the dishes.

The two girls leaned on the warm kang and talked. Huang Zhi picked up a book on the side and asked, "Is this the book you translated this time?"

After the treasure incident, Qu Nannan told Uncle Huang that she wanted to take on the translation job. Uncle Huang agreed because he liked children to learn. Qu Nannan only took on English and Russian translations and said she couldn't do any other translations.

"Well, since I have nothing else to do, I might as well just kill time."

In the previous small world, she had studied various languages ​​for nearly thirty years and could be said to be quite proficient in them, almost as good as speaking her mother tongue. It was very easy for her to translate them. She would take out a little time every day to translate some of them so that her progress would not be too fast to attract attention.

"Do you think these things will be tested if the college entrance examination is really restored?" Huang Zhi was a good student in school, but she didn't know English. They teach Russian here.

Qu Nannan shook her head: "It will be in the exam, but it probably won't be a major subject. I guess there may be special majors that need to take this exam. If you need it, I can tutor you in this."

Huang Zhi shook her head in resistance: "I was almost tortured to death when I was learning Russian. I don't want to learn another language." Her tongue became tied when she spoke a foreign language.

"Why do I feel like your house is warmer than mine?"

"Really? It might be because we were eating the pot in the house just now."

How can it not be warm? There is a heating stone in the corner of the room. Even if there is no fire in the room, the room will always be at the most comfortable constant temperature.

"Maybe. Have you finished knitting that sweater?"

Knitting sweaters is another skill that Qu Nannan learned after making clothes. It is much easier to learn than making clothes: "I am almost done with the edges. I can wear them during the Chinese New Year. Have you finished knitting all those?"

She just needs to knit for herself, but Huang Zhi has to knit sweaters for the whole family, including Uncle Huang and Aunt Huang. It is more troublesome to take apart the old sweaters, wash the wool, and knit again.

"I only have one sleeve left. The rest are done. I can finally take a break. I always feel like I have more work to do in the winter."

"It's the same in every family. Sister Zhi, can you teach me how to make shoes in the spring?" Anyway, there's plenty of time, so I might as well learn as much as I can.

"Making shoes is very tiring. Do you really want to learn it?"

"Learning, knowing more is always better than knowing nothing."

"Okay, I'll teach you after I finish what I'm doing. There's a movie tomorrow, do you want to go? Our company will issue the tickets."

Qu Nannan shook her head. She would rather stay at home in such a cold weather. Not only was it cold, but the strong wind also made her face hurt. "No, I won't go out to the warm house to freeze?"

"Then I won't go either. I've already seen it. Let Quanzi take his friends to see it. It's really cold in the cinema."

The cinema here is small and shabby. After going there once, Qu Nannan swore that she would never go there again. The room is dark, damp and has a strange smell. I don’t know why people are so addicted to it, and every show is sold out.

"I'll come to see you tomorrow. Your house is warm and I can keep you company."

"Come on, it just so happens that I can't even enjoy eating at home alone."

The brother and sister stayed at Qu Nannan's place until it was almost time for dinner before going back. After seeing the two off, Qu Nannan went to take a look at Qu's father's room. This room was cleaned very cleanly by a small robot every day, but it was very cold because there was no fire.

On the night of New Year's Eve, while everyone was setting off firecrackers and secretly burning paper money, Qu Nannan burned all of her belongings and put the remaining ashes in a small box. She planned to visit Qu's father and mother tomorrow to see if there was a chance to bury the box with them.
