Reborn in 1979, with a female educated youth lying next to me.

"What?"

Zhang Dalaba squeezed out a single word, and the handful of sunflower seeds in his hand involuntarily fell to the ground.

In an instant, sunflower seeds fell all over the ground.

But Zhang Dalaba hadn't recovered yet.

The people chatting with Zhang Dalaba nearby were also dumbfounded!

Registered mail!

Liu Jiade!

University acceptance letter!

Good heavens! Old Liu's youngest son got into university!

Aunt Liu started swallowing nervously, while Aunt Zhou stared blankly as if she were possessed.

Seeing this scene, the postman couldn't help but ask, "What happened? Are Liu Jiade's family members here?"

"No, we're all from the same village, but we're not related to Liu Jia."

Zhang Dalaba replied absentmindedly.

"Oh, then you all go ahead with your work. I'll go deliver the registered letter to the production team and have the team leader broadcast it over the loudspeaker."

"Stop broadcasting! You can't find Liu Jia. He just drove off in his tractor, and we don't know when he'll be back!"

After regaining his senses, Zhang Dalaba's face turned extremely ugly, and he glared at the postman several times as he spoke.

"Okay, thank you."

According to regulations, registered letters must be delivered to the recipient in person, or at least placed in a very secure location.

Moreover, the postman already knew that this was a university admission letter, and naturally knew the significance of this registered letter. After speaking, the postman got back into his vehicle and hurried towards the production team.

"What did I just say? Old Liu's third son is really capable. He owns a factory and goes to university. He's bound to have a bright future."

"Even our village can produce a golden phoenix. From now on, when we mention Liu Jia, we'll all be proud."

"Don't say anything more, hurry up and prepare the eggs. We'll send them to Old Liu's family later as a token of our appreciation."

Upon hearing that Liu Jia had been admitted to university, Zhang Dalaba expressed his deep resentment, and then he figured out a new principle.

These days, it's rare to find a college student even in a long stretch of villages. Now that Liu Jia has been admitted, the village will definitely take it very seriously.

That's secondary.

The important thing is that after Liu Jia graduates, he will definitely get a government job, and might even become an official.

If this person becomes an official, he will no longer be an ordinary citizen.

There's a saying that goes, "When one person attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs rise to heaven." When one person becomes an official, all their relatives and friends will benefit from it.

Who knows, there might be a day when we need Liu Jia again.

If you don't curry favor now, when will you?

Zhang Dalaba was all smiles, his eyes narrowing into slits as he spoke.

The other women who had been gossiping also became more active.

Although they didn't say it aloud, they were all plotting how to get closer to the Liu family.

Liu Jia has been admitted to university; he's sure to have a bright future.

"Oh dear, I was so busy chatting with you guys that I remembered I haven't fed the chickens at home yet. I'll head back now."

Aunt Zhou patted her bottom and jogged back home.

Aunt Liu was clearly restless after seeing Aunt Zhou leave.

"I still have water boiling on the stove, I have to go back and check on it. If the water boils and the pot boils dry, it will be a real problem. I don't want to ruin another pot of mine."

After hurriedly throwing out those words, Aunt Liu scurried back home.

Zhang Dalaba's mouth twitched into a wide grin as he spat fiercely on the ground.

Those two old hags, neither of them had any good intentions!

What do you mean by going back to feed the chickens, or being anxious to see if the pot is boiling? They're all just excuses!

Even a fool could imagine that they're preparing eggs right now!

I was just agreeing with myself that Liu Jia was no good.

Now, as soon as they saw Liu Jiade's university acceptance letter, the two of them were more anxious than anyone else.

WTF!

Then, with another cold snort, Zhang the Big Horn hurriedly went back.

……

When the postman arrived at the production brigade, he first found Zhou Fengshou.

Upon learning that the registered letter was Liu Jiade's university admission notice, Zhou Fengshou was so excited that tears almost streamed down his face!

"Comrade, wait a moment. I'll make a announcement over the loudspeaker. If Liu Jia doesn't come, then have his family come, okay?"

"Okay, I'll wait here."

Seeing that the postman readily agreed, Zhou Fengshou stumbled and ran towards the broadcasting room.

"Attention all members, attention all members! We have some good news to announce: another college student has emerged from our Xili Village! It's Liu Jia!"

"Liu Jia's university admission notice is currently at the production brigade. Comrade Liu Jia, please come to the production brigade immediately."

"Comrade Liu Jia, please come and collect your university admission notice!"

"Comrade Liu Jia, please come and collect your university admission notice!"

Zhou Fengshou's voice was so excited that it trembled as it came from the loudspeaker.

Liu Jia passed the exam!

Another college student has emerged from Xili Village!

If Guo Xiaoyan hadn't divorced Liu Jia, then the village would have produced three college students!

Even though Guo Xiaoyan is no longer from Xili Village, the fact that there are two college students here has already brought tears to Zhou Fengshou's eyes!

What was supposed to be a short broadcast turned into a nearly ten-minute broadcast by Zhou Fengshou.

Whether it was those who had asked for leave instead of going to work or the commune members who were working in the fields, they all heard the good news that Liu Jia had been admitted to university.

Liu Yutian is weeding in the field.

Upon hearing the broadcast from the loudspeaker, Liu Yutian gripped his hoe tightly and froze on the spot.

"Brother, aren't you overjoyed? Did you hear that? Liu Jia's admission notice has arrived!"

"Old Liu, is there some kind of auspicious smoke rising from your ancestral graves? Sanzi, this kid is no ordinary person!"

“Yesterday I was wondering, how come our three sons, who are so smart and well-educated, didn’t pass the exam? Impossible! I never thought it was because the admission notice was delayed.”

"The Liu family has made a name for itself; your Liu family has truly brought honor to your ancestors!"

"With such a joyous occasion at home, shouldn't we host a banquet? When should we set a date? I'd like to come and help out; I'm a great cook!"

"That's right! If we don't treat everyone to a couple of days of fun, we'll be letting our fellow villagers down!"

The men who were weeding with Liu Yutian congratulated him and joked with him.

Hearing them repeatedly say that Liu Jia was the top scholar, Liu Yutian couldn't stop smiling.

How could I not be happy?

From now on, Liu Jia will no longer have to toil in the fields, and he will be able to afford to eat commercial grain!

Seeing everyone looking in his direction, Liu Yutian was so excited that he gasped for breath.

"Please, please!"

After saying this, Liu Yutian felt much more at ease.

"Old Liu, don't just stand there. Didn't your third son go out? Hurry up and go get his college acceptance letter. You have to keep that safe."

Among the group, someone said something, though it's unclear who it was.

Liu Yutian finally came to his senses and hurriedly took two steps forward.

"Old Zhang, could you watch my hoe for me? I'm going to the production team!"

"go Go!"

Liu Yutian ran all the way to the production team, his heart pounding with excitement.

About ten minutes later, Liu Yutian arrived at the production team.

The courtyard was quiet; apart from a few bird calls, there was no other sound.

Liu Yutian looked around but couldn't find the postman's bicycle, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.

"What happened? Could it be that they took the notice again?"

Liu Yutian muttered to himself, and his footsteps became much lighter.

Seeing that the door to the broadcasting room was open, Liu Yutian decided to go inside and take a look.

Just then, footsteps suddenly came from behind.

Before he could turn around, Liu Yutian heard Liu Jianye's voice.

"Dad, what brings you here?"

"Are you here to pick up Sanzi's admission notice?"

"I came here after hearing the announcement. Did you get it?"

Liu Jianye immediately launched into a barrage of questions, then jogged over to Liu Yutian's side.

Liu Yutian shook his head.

"No, there's nobody here."

"Who said no one's here? I've been waiting for you guys for ages. Sanzi, is something wrong?"

As Zhou Fengshou spoke, he walked out of the house, holding a filtered cigarette in his hand.

Seeing Zhou Fengshou, both Liu Jianye and Liu Yutian became somewhat anxious.

But Zhou Fengshou laughed.

"We waited and waited and they didn't come, but now two of them have come all at once. Did you know I had filtered cigarettes?"

"Wait here, I'll get you two."

"And by the way, I'll bring you the three boys' university acceptance letters!"

Zhou Fengshou spoke with a relaxed tone and walked with light steps.

Not long after, he came back out of the house, carrying an envelope and a form.

Liu Yutian was so excited that his hands started to tremble.

Liu Jianye wished he could crane his neck to see ahead.

"Jianye, please sign here. Who took this registered letter? They need to sign it."

"Row!"

Taking the pen from Zhou Fengshou, Liu Jianye smoothly wrote his name.

The registered letter in my hand was very light; I guessed it only contained an admission notice.

But Liu Jianye felt a heavy weight on his heart.

Since the resumption of the college entrance examination, how many people have put in a lot of effort and stayed up all night to study for this piece of paper?

But how many of them can actually get into university?

Liu Jianye had never seen Liu Jia engrossed in his studies, but during that time, he noticed that the light in Liu Jia's room was always on.

Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and the lights are still on.

Now, this kid's efforts have finally paid off.

Worth it!

"Jianye, have a smoke too. This is the cigarette that Sanzi gave me last time!"

Zhou Fengshou and Liu Yutian had already lit cigarettes.

In the past, Liu Jianye would never have accepted the cigarette in this situation, but today was different.

Today is a day of great joy!

What's wrong with smoking a couple of cigarettes?

"Thank you, Uncle Zhou!"

Liu Jianye smiled and took the cigarette without hesitation.

Now, without him having to say it, everyone in the village knows that Liu Jia has been admitted to university.

Only Liu Jia didn't know.

Thinking about all this, Liu Jianye wanted to go to the village entrance to wait for Liu Jia!

……

After picking up Li Zhenhe from the Hongxing Supply and Marketing Cooperative, Liu Jia went to the library.

Find a spacious place to park the tractor, and Liu Jia turned to Li Zhenhe and spoke.

"Brother Li, wait here for me for a moment. I'll give the notice to Guo Xiaolan and then come back."

"Okay, go and come back quickly."

"understood."

Liu Jia had long since let go of the fact that she didn't get into university.

It's not that I don't care, but I really don't have time to think about those things right now.

There are just too many things to do. Even if I deal with them one by one, dealing with the disappointment of not getting into university has to take a backseat.

The task was considered complete once the notification letter was handed to Guo Xiaolan.

To Liu Jia's surprise, Guo Xiaolan didn't come to work today!

"Comrade, am I too early? Has Guo Xiaolan not arrived yet?"

"Could you please check if Guo Xiaolan is definitely not coming to work today?"

The girl across from me had two braids and wore a trendy bright red hair clip.

Hearing Liu Jia ask this, he initially wanted to impatiently decline.

But when the girl looked up and saw Liu Jia's face, she suddenly changed her mind.

I've really never seen many young men this tall and with such handsome features.

For no apparent reason, the girl's heart started pounding, and two blushes rose to her cheeks.

Seeing the girl opposite him staring blankly, Liu Jia urged her again anxiously.

"Comrade, could you please take a look and see if it's alright?"

"Okay... alright, wait here for a moment, I'll ask the others."

The girl was certain that Guo Xiaolan wouldn't come today, otherwise she wouldn't have covered for her.

But since they said that and sincerely asked me to take another look, then I'll take a look.

It's worth asking a few more questions just to have a chance to talk to such a handsome young man.

Before long, the girl walked back, somewhat shyly.

"Comrade, Guo Xiaolan is indeed not at work today. If you need anything, why don't you let me know first and I'll pass on your message?"

"No need, thank you!"

After Liu Jia finished speaking, he quickly turned around.
