Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

They didn't go to the educated youth settlement to get involved with those people, nor did they discuss their study progress with the villagers.

She only studies at home with Akahoshi.

Akahoshi had already learned this knowledge; he only needed to review politics and the main history of this era.

While reviewing on his own, he also studied with Gu Yuzhi.

Seeing that Gu Yuzhi always had a book in his hand, Chixing took over the task of cooking and taking care of him.

The brigade leader wrote down all the people who had signed up in his notebook and exempted them from labor tasks. These were all people from his village, and he would also get credit for them if they passed the exams later.

Gu Yuzhi learned that all the educated youth would participate, and that the young people from the village who had gone to school together would also go.

Gu Yuzhi, who only had a junior high school education and had never taken this kind of test before, began to feel nervous.

He reviewed his study materials repeatedly every day, and he practiced several different solutions to the math problems he was most interested in.

Finally, he even pulled Akahoshi aside and asked Akahoshi to give him a test, wanting to know how good he was.

Akahoshi felt both heartache and anger when she saw the dark circles under his eyes.

This person is like a learning machine; they used to know to put down the book when it got dark.

Now he studies late into the night, completely ignoring the fact that he is alone on the empty bed.

Chixing pushed him down onto the kang (a heated brick bed), pulled the quilt over them, and then rolled over to pin him down.

"Sleep should be a balance between work and rest."

Gu Yuzhi frowned and struggled: "No, I like studying. If you don't give me questions, I'll do them myself."

At worst, he could just do the practice problems again, Gu Yuzhi thought the routines were probably all the same.

But Akahoshi wouldn't let him get up, and started tearing at his clothes as he held him down...

In a daze, Gu Yuzhi was once again firmly entangled by Chi Xing until she drifted off to sleep.

The next day, Akahoshi still gave him a new set of papers.

He had 250 modify this exam paper according to the historical context, so it was definitely much more difficult than the college entrance exam papers of that time.

Gu Yuzhi assumed it was a set of exercises sent by Chi Yang, which Chi Xing had previously hidden away.

As usual, Gu Yuzhi set a time limit for himself, and after finishing, he went to find Chi Xing to have him correct his paper.

Teacher Chi was meticulous and found several mistakes, and "severely punished" the students.

Gu Yuzhi didn't get up until noon the next day.

Before we knew it, the day of the college entrance examination arrived.

On a freezing cold day, Chi Xing and Gu Yuzhi entered the examination hall.

Everything went very smoothly. When Gu Yuzhi received the test paper, she was extremely nervous and thought that the wrong paper had been given to her.

These questions were much simpler than the ones Akahoshi had given him.

Little did he know that Akahoshi deliberately made the questions more difficult in order to "punish" him.

In addition, Chixing naturally wanted Gu Yuzhi to adapt to the exam atmosphere as soon as possible, fearing that he would be nervous when he actually took the exam.

This time, Gu Yuzhi was genuinely not nervous and answered the questions seriously as soon as he received the test paper.

Chi Xing handed in his paper early and waited for him. After Gu Yuzhi finished the test, he carefully checked it many times until he was sure there were no problems before handing in his paper.

He guessed that the stars were already waiting for him outside, and sure enough, he saw the red star as soon as he came out.

They ate at a state-run restaurant and then went to take the second exam in the afternoon.

After the stressful college entrance examination ended, they didn't discuss the answers with others. Instead, they returned to their village to continue their peaceful lives, waiting only for the results and admission notices to arrive.

In this era, students still apply to universities first and then take the exams. Along with the Peking University admission notice, the city party committee leaders also arrived.

The village produced two top scholars.

When the news spread, the villagers all rushed to the village committee to see.

"Oh my, it's Chi Zhiqing and Gu Yuzhi? Is it really them?"

"How can there be two top scholars? There are two top scholars?" someone asked, puzzled.

The person next to him answered excitedly, "You don't understand, do you? The educated youth in the red was the top scorer in the liberal arts, while Yu Xiaozi was the top scorer in the sciences."

"What? Exams are divided into these kinds of parts?"

"Of course, I just heard the brigade leader say that he is the top scorer in our province, which is a great honor for our village chief."

That makes sense. Even city leaders have come, which proves that this top scholar is indeed real.

Chi Xing and Gu Yuzhi received commendation from their superiors and a subsidy of two hundred yuan each.

Back home, Gu Yuzhi was still in disbelief, staring blankly at the admission letter from Peking University.

“Xingxing, I really passed the exam.” His voice was calm.

Chixing hugged and kissed him: "Yes, Ayu is really amazing. We can go to school in Beijing in the future."

"Great, it's true, Star..."

Gu Yuzhi's hands were still trembling slightly as he held onto Chixing tightly.

After the New Year, the two of them took their grandmother on a train to Beijing.

This was Yang Guixiang's first time taking a train, and also her first time traveling far from home.

To put her two grandsons at ease, Yang Guixiang did not insist on staying in the village, but followed their arrangements and went to Beijing together.

They refused the Chi family's offer to stay and rented a beautiful courtyard house near Peking University.

Gu Yuzhi was thinking of buying it when he had more money, but for now he could only afford to pay the rent.

Akahoshi knows Ayu well and wouldn't sell the house to him without his consent.

Thinking about future property prices, Chixing still secretly bought the courtyard and put it in her own name, waiting for Gu Yuzhi to buy it.

When Gu Yuzhi and his roommate started a company together and earned their first pot of gold, they used the money to buy a house.

He then realized that the owner of the courtyard had become Chixing at some point. Adhering to the principle of cash on delivery, Gu Yuzhi stared wide-eyed as he stuffed all the money into Chixing's hands.

This made Chi Xing laugh for several days. Gu Yuzhi held his anger in, but couldn't help secretly enjoying himself.

The feeling of money going from one pocket to the other is actually not bad, but the thought of Akahoshi, the conman, makes me angry again.

But think about it, Xingxing lied to him for his sake. If he gets angry like this, Xingxing will definitely feel wronged.

So, before Chixing could even beg for his forgiveness, Gu Yuzhi went over and hugged Chixing, saying:

"Okay, I was just kidding. I'm not angry."

Akahoshi's eyes crinkled with laughter, and she couldn't help but gloat to 250: "See? See? I told you Tama wouldn't get angry."

250: ...

Pshaw, love-struck! Two absolute love-struck geniuses!!

Gu Yuzhi runs a trading company. His classmates provide the capital, he provides the technology, and the Chi family protects him. Even though it's just a small private company, no one dares to trip him up.

On the first day that Chi Xing brought Gu Yuzhi home, the Chi family guessed the relationship between the two, since Chi Xing had previously said that he did not like women.

Unexpectedly, he met someone who shared his ideals. The Chi family felt fortunate and grateful that Gu Yuzhi had been by Chi Xing's side for so long.

Chi Xing was like she had married Gu Yuzhi, moved out of her family home to live with him, and would go home to visit her parents whenever she had free time on weekends.

The two young people were very busy, so Yang Guixiang was taken to live with Chi Jia's parents.
