Surprise! The rough husband is the hidden boss of the period literature

Chapter 428 College Entrance Examination Tutoring Class
It took Qiu Linghua a while to come to her senses. She rushed at Kong Lijuan, yelling, "You good-for-nothing! If I don't discipline you for a day, you'll be climbing on the roof and tearing off the tiles!"

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law got into a fight.

The child fell headfirst off the kang (a heated brick bed) and immediately stopped breathing.

Kong Lijuan turned pale with fright, kicked Qiu Linghua away, ran towards her son, picked him up, and ran towards Xu Qinghuan's house.

"Xu Qinghuan, please save my son!"

The room was crowded with educated youth who were studying, but they quickly hid in the east wing, just like they were doing underground work.

"What's going on?"

Xu Qinghuan felt annoyed by Kong Lijuan, but felt sorry for the child.

Such a young child, getting into trouble every few days, their life is really too cheap.

"She fell!" Kong Lijuan couldn't even speak.

She was holding the child, her whole body trembling.

Xu Qinghuan took the child from her arms, examined him, and then placed him on the kang (a heated brick bed). She first gave him a pill the size of a soybean, and then inserted acupuncture needles into several acupoints. After a while, the child woke up and cried out loud.

Kong Lijuan swayed unsteadily, then collapsed onto the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) and cried, "If anything happens to you, Mom doesn't want to live anymore!"

Xu Qinghuan then noticed her. She looked like she had been in a fight, with several bloody marks on her face, disheveled hair, and torn clothes, looking utterly unkempt.

Xu Qinghuan took out the needle. "The child is fine now. Keep a close eye on him and make sure nothing goes wrong."

Kong Lijuan then thanked Xu Qinghuan, "Thank you!"

She pulled out a little over two yuan, saying, "That's all the money I have."

Xu Qinghuan took the money. "Go back now. It's cold. Make sure the child is kept warm."

After that day, Kong Lijuan came to Xu Qinghuan's house to study every day, and no matter how hard they tried to chase her away, she wouldn't leave.

At first, everyone found it difficult to adapt, but over time, they were inevitably moved by her persistent spirit, and she studied very seriously.

Her child is very well-behaved. Sometimes when he cries, Kong Lijuan ignores him, but Xu Qinghuan gives him some food and drink, and he stops crying. Then he takes a toy and plays with it for most of the day.

Jiang Xingcan often observed him and probably couldn't believe that a child could be so quiet.

April has arrived again in the blink of an eye. After a long winter of hibernation, it's time to prepare for spring plowing in Northeast China.

In Shangjiang Brigade, tractors were used to till the fields. Dong Liangcheng directly arranged for several commune members to clear the land, without assigning any work to the educated youth.

By this time, the production team and the factory would approve any leave requests from the educated youth.

Everyone in the Shangjiang Brigade knew that the educated youth were studying hard to prepare for the college entrance examination.

Jiang Xingcan and Jiang Chijing will be able to walk if they wear less clothing.

The children were playing together.

Kong Lijuan's child was clearly not sociable; he was a very quiet child.

When Xu Qinghuan was distributing fruit, the other children would rush to grab it, but this child would stand quietly at the back, drooling as he watched, but he wouldn't go up to ask for any.

He seemed to know that the world wasn't very kind to him.

Xu Qinghuan always saves the biggest piece for him, "Yangyang is very well-behaved, Yangyang eats the biggest piece."

At this time, he would smile shyly and look at Xu Qinghuan with a gleam in his eyes.

Jiang Xingcan is a domineering girl. Whenever she sees her mother being nice to Sun Shuangyang, she gets jealous and comes over to squeeze the child, taking over her mother's embrace.

However, it must be said that after staying with Xu Qinghuan for a while, the child recovered significantly. He didn't get sick, gained some weight, and became more cheerful. The situation was slowly changing, and everyone could feel it.

Previously, eggs could only be sold to purchasing stations. Now, if you take eggs to the city, someone will come and buy them, and the price is much better than at the purchasing stations. At least there won't be any deliberate price suppression.

Chen Dewen returned from Shanghai in March and said that there were already individual vendors doing business on the streets there, selling steamed buns and mantou from carts.

Chen Dewen did not get all the money back. After communicating with the organization, each department store lost a little money, totaling about 30,000 to 40,000 yuan. This was far from the million yuan stipulated in the contract, but it was money he got for free.

In accordance with the factory's regulations, Jiang Xingye gave Chen Dewen a 3% commission on the compensation.

Normally, sales commission is 1%, but for claims, the process of collecting payments is much more complicated than for normal sales, so the commission cannot be calculated as normal.

Therefore, Xu Qinghuan proposed a commission rate of three percent.

Otherwise, nobody would want to claim the compensation.

Chen Dewen made a thousand or so yuan on this trip, and even though he lost a little, he still made over eight hundred yuan, which was enough to break even.

He was quite happy.

“The policies are definitely changing. If you can’t pass the exam and get into a factory in the future, starting your own small business is also a viable option,” Chen Dewen said to a few close friends while sitting in the main room of the Jiang family home.

"I really want to see what the city is like now," Qiao Xinyu said longingly.

"Anyway, the trend has been set," Chen Dewen said.

"Things will only get better from now on!" Xu Qinghuan encouraged.

"Yes, things will definitely get better and better." Chen Dewen ran a hand through his hair. "Brother Ye, are you still doing business in Shanghai?"

Jiang Xingye said, "It's up to you. It depends on how you arrange it. If you want to do it, then do it according to the normal procedures. There are so many cities in the country for you to choose from. If you don't want to do it, then stay home and study. You've been running around alone for a while now, which has been quite tiring, and you haven't been able to keep up with your studies."

Chen Dewen doesn't want to study. He's a terrible student, and now he's a father. How can he possibly study with any effort?

Qiao Xinyu slapped him across the face. "You better stay home and study hard. This time, almost everyone will pass the exam. If you don't, you'll be the only one left in Shangjiang Brigade."

"Is it that serious?" Chen Dewen was terrified.

Xu Qinghuan said, "First, you should work through the 'Self-Study Series' properly. Then, you should have Xinyu explain the essay topics we discussed. Write them carefully, and I'll take a look."

She looked at Jiang Xingye and said, "Once the policy is finally released, our brigade will open a tutoring class, and I will give everyone some pre-exam cramming."

The factory had a mimeograph machine, but it was a very rudimentary machine. All you needed was wax paper and ink. Xu Qinghuan asked Jiang Xingye to buy some wax paper, and she would cut and print the papers at home whenever she had free time.

The entire Shangjiang brigade's preparations for the college entrance examination were thus launched in a grand and vigorous manner.

Xu Qinghuan categorized and summarized the math, physics, and chemistry questions, and based on different question types, she made a set of papers for each subject every day, with a number of questions similar to those in the college entrance examination.

But a set of test papers basically consists of only one type of question.

With repeated practice like this, almost everyone's abilities improved by leaps and bounds.

Xu Qinghuan only corrected Jiang Xingye's papers every day. His papers were basically full marks. Then everyone would correct their papers against Jiang Xingye's. If they really couldn't understand, they would ask Jiang Xingye or Xu Qinghuan.

Men usually consult Jiang Xingye, while women consult Xu Qinghuan.

Of the new educated youth, only Cao Xiurong and Fang Boran integrated. The rest of the educated youth, for some reason, worked diligently every day and no one spent time studying.

Xu Qinghuan was extremely surprised.

Cao Xiurong disagreed, "What? They just think that the policy hasn't been implemented yet, and since we're not very experienced after going to the countryside, if we upset the production team, we might be forced to farm. We'd be workers in the city anyway, and the treatment in Shangjiang Brigade is better in all aspects. We have jobs, so why bother going to school!"
