Dreaming of Lion Rock: Recipe in Hand

That day, Chunni came back from selling cold-cooked rabbit and went to find Yang Anzhang to ask him if he had any information about rabbit grass.

Fortunately, the captain was very efficient and he got some alfalfa seeds from the county livestock farm.

Although this alfalfa cannot be fed directly to newborn rabbits, it can be fed to adult rabbits.

Chunni was overjoyed, but Yang Anzhang also said that the seed would have to wait until the next meeting to be distributed.

Chunni was chatting with Yang Anzhang about raising rabbits when someone outside called out "Captain".

"Captain, captain, the commune asked you to attend a meeting!" Soon, the person who called came into the house. It turned out to be Accountant Zhu from the village, who had just returned from doing some business at the commune.

"Go quickly. I heard something big happened." The accountant urged hurriedly.

It was indeed a big event. Yang Anzhang convened an emergency meeting as soon as he returned from the commune. Everyone in the brigade who was over ten years old had to participate!

"Dear fellow villagers, dear educated youth colleagues, please be quiet!"

It’s the same beginning.

But today the captain's face was unusually serious.

"In September of this year, our country's Ministry of Education held a national college admissions work conference in Beijing and decided to resume the national college entrance examination, which had been suspended for more than ten years, to select talents to go to university through a unified examination and admission based on merit."

When they heard that the college entrance examination was resumed, the lazy educated youth suddenly became serious and started asking questions at once.

"Don't worry, the news is indeed true. If you have any questions, please ask me one by one." Yang Anzhang was sweating all over his forehead after being asked so many questions.

"Can we take the exam?" some educated youth asked anxiously.

"Yes. The candidates for this year's college entrance examination are mainly workers, farmers, high school graduates, and educated youth."

There was a loud bang, like a thunder in a clear sky, or like a huge rock falling on a calm surface of water, which broke the tranquility of Lion Rock and shook the entire Lion Rock.

The resumption of the college entrance examination was like a flame that instantly ignited the hearts of the educated youth. Some of them cried, some laughed, thinking that they could never return to the city by taking the college entrance examination.

For these educated youth who went to work in the countryside, the college entrance examination was like the last straw that a drowning man grasped.

The families who married the educated youth looked unhappy.

Among this group of educated youth, some have thrown away their textbooks ten years ago, and the cultural knowledge has probably been returned to their teachers long ago.

The college entrance examination is like a single-plank bridge. Everyone is trying to get up, but only a few can make it.

Yang Anzhang cursed in his heart, fearing that the college entrance examination would cause unrest in the Lion Mountain community.

His concerns were not wrong. In the following months, the village and the educated youth center were in chaos and bustle.

"The specific time of the exam has not been determined yet. However, once the educated youth pass the exam, no one can stop them from going to college, otherwise they will bear the consequences themselves!"

Yang Anzhang glanced at the families of the educated youth who were ready to make a move.

After these ten years, even the most dishonest families no longer dare to cause trouble.

The educated youth cried with joy, but Chunni's home remained as peaceful as ever.

Chunni returned home and shared the good news of the resumption of the college entrance examination with Xiazhi and Qiuguo who came back late.

Qiu Guo was looking forward to the college entrance examination, but Xia Zhi looked like he had something to say.

"Xia Zhi, you are a man, just say whatever you want to say. Don't be shy like a girl!" Chun Ni looked at Xia Zhi with amusement.

"Sister, my grades have not been very good. I plan to drop out after junior high school. This way you can go to college." Chunni didn't expect that her brother, who had always been carefree, could be so thoughtful and considerate.

"I don't need your help. You are still young. At your age, you should study hard and learn some knowledge. Knowledge is a wealth that no one can take away from you." Chunni insisted.

"Forget it, I can't concentrate on studying anyway. But sister, you have good grades and have never given up studying. You can take the exam. What if you get admitted to university?" Xia Zhi persuaded Chunni instead.

"It's not that easy." Chunni also thought about the college entrance examination.

Chunni was a little embarrassed. She had lost a lot of time for study in order to make money.

Ahem, it must be because there are no study materials in the Food Sutra.

She hadn't seen Lao Ma's serious face for a long time and she missed him for some reason.

She should just work hard at cooking and accumulate more points to see if she can get the college entrance examination review materials.

Having someone urging you to study is both pressure and motivation!

Wait, what is her next dish? Shredded pork with fish flavor. Meat? I can only buy a piece from the black market next time.

"elder sister."

Xia Zhi's voice brought Chun Ni back to her senses. Yes, now we are discussing about going to college!

She had attended college in her previous life, albeit a second-tier university that was not very good, but she had truly experienced college life, so she was not that interested in going to college.

As the breadwinner of the family, even if she was lucky enough to be admitted to university, she would not abandon her family.

Forget it, take one step at a time.

"Just because I like reading doesn't mean I can get into college. We'll talk about that later. If you really don't want to study anymore, come home after you get your diploma."

She is not a dictator. If Xia Zhi doesn’t want to read, then she doesn’t have to.

If you don't want to study anymore, you should go home and learn how to farm. After all, you need to have the ability to make a living.

Xia Zhi got what he wanted, so he encouraged Qiu Guo to study hard and go to college.

Qiuguo is not like her brother. She likes reading very much. Why not read if she can?

"Sister, I will go to college in the future, become a city dweller, and then take you to the city to enjoy a good life." Qiu Guo opened his big eyes, his face full of sincerity.

Dong Lin raised his hand and said, "And me, and me. When I make a lot of money, I will let my brothers and sisters buy whatever they want."

Chunni is so happy! Her brothers and sisters are so sensible. She will work hard to earn more money so that they can eat and dress better and let others see that they have a good life even though they don't have a father or a mother!
