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

Chapter 430 Vigilance
On the way to the Jiang family home, Jiang Xingye held Xu Qinghuan's hand.

"Which university did you attend before?" Jiang Xingye asked.

"Yan University School of Medicine," Xu Qinghuan said.

"what about now?"

"I definitely need a diploma; that's what society values ​​in the future. I'll stick with Yenching University's medical school; it's easier there, and I won't have to put in much effort. Things are different now; I have two kids to take care of. What about you?"

"I'm going to the same university as you, but I want to study science and engineering."

"Hmm, let's go with Peking University then. Peking University's math department is very strong. Are you going to study math or mechanical engineering?"

Which one is better?

"It depends on your preference. I personally find learning math very challenging; I feel that people who can learn math are all incredibly smart."

Jiang Xingye has been trained by Xu Qinghuan in many types of math olympiad problems, and his thinking is far more advanced than before. He has also read almost all the books in Xu Qinghuan's space, and he has his own ideas about what major to choose.

"I am very interested in mathematics, but I do not plan to pursue scientific research in the future."

Therefore, he did not plan to choose mathematics.

Xu Qinghuan was just saying it casually.

"Choose a major that you like and are willing to dedicate your life to, because it is easier to succeed if you like it, and you will have the fighting spirit for your whole life if you like it."

Jiang Xingye looked at her intently. There was only one cause for which he was willing to dedicate his life: Xu Qinghuan.

He would never forget the thought in his heart when he married her: his princess should live in a castle.

So what does everything else have to do with him? Just like when he set up a factory in Shangjiang Brigade, his original intention was simply to save Xu Qinghuan from having to work in the fields.

If she were the only one who didn't have to work in the fields, she would inevitably face a lot of pressure. But if everyone else didn't have to work in the fields, then she would truly be the one who didn't have to work in the fields.

As media outlets in various provinces reported on the resumption of the college entrance examination, the examination dates for each province were quickly set, with the vast majority scheduled for December.

A chorus of wails!
Except for the Shangjiang Brigade.

The educated youth in Shangjiang Brigade started reviewing two or three years ago. To this day, some of them have completed several rounds of review, while the least experienced are now in their third round of review.

After Xu Qinghuan explained the key points of each subject using mind maps, everyone had a very clear overall understanding of each subject.

After class, everyone memorized these key points repeatedly and then recited them from memory.

When you do more practice problems, you'll be able to easily find the knowledge points needed to solve them.

After that, there was an exam every night.

Mathematics, physics, chemistry, and Chinese language classes are taught in turn.

Xu Qinghuan also elaborates on some literary knowledge used in Chinese language exams, based on the question types on the test papers.

Every day is tiring, with work during the day and studying at night, but everyone feels very fulfilled. As they become more proficient in exams and their scores rise, everyone's hearts are filled with anticipation for the upcoming college entrance examination, rather than tension and fear.

On November 10th, all provinces began accepting applications for the college entrance examination. All the educated youth in Shangjiang Brigade who wanted to apply registered.

Duan Qingmei did not register because she had not studied at all.

Before the new educated youth arrived, she lived alone while the male educated youth studied, and she knew nothing about it.

When the new educated youth arrived, some started reviewing their studies. When she tried to review, she found herself falling behind in everything. She had offended all the educated youth; no one was willing to mentor her. When she asked for help with problems she couldn't solve, people only mocked her. Even when they offered guidance, it was just a few casual words telling her which formula to use.

But Duan Qingmei hasn't touched a book in many years, and even if you teach her step by step, she might not know how.

Early in the morning, only Duan Qingmei, an old educated youth, and a few new educated youth came to work at the factory.

Qiu Linghua, holding a handful of melon seeds, squatted by the door again. When she saw Duan Qingmei, she said, "Oh, Duan Qingmei, aren't you going to register? Aren't you going to take the college entrance exam? What's wrong? Don't you want to go back to the city? You should have said so earlier. Auntie will find you a handsome young man, and you'll be the wife of Shangjiang Brigade from now on."

Some brigades restricted the registration of educated youth; newly arrived educated youth, or those who had only been there for a few days, were not allowed to register.

Those who were former educated youth and had ties to the production brigade were not allowed to register.

However, the Shangjiang Brigade does not have this rule; anyone who wants to register can take the exam.

Duan Qingmei smiled and said, "Auntie is such a good mother-in-law. Kong Zhiqing has already signed up. I heard that she is doing quite well in her studies. If she passes the exam, your family will have a college student. Sun Laizi is so lucky."

Qiu Linghua's expression changed. She chewed the pumpkin seeds in her mouth, swallowed them, and said, "If she has the ability, why shouldn't I allow it? No matter what, even if she gets into university, she's still my grandson's mother. Does she think she can go to heaven?"

It's clear that this family intends to cling to Kong Lijuan.

Duan Qingmei sneered inwardly and was about to speak when Zhou Guizhi came over, glared at her, and said, "Qiu Linghua, you're not so smart after all. Why are you stopping those educated youth? Your grandson came from her womb. She might not be nice to anyone else, but she won't be nice to your grandson."

"In the future, when your grandson becomes successful, even Sun Laizi will have someone to take care of him in his old age. Do you really think your Sun Laizi could be so capable as to marry a woman like Kong Zhiqing?"

Qiu Linghua then realized that she had been instigated by Duan Qingmei, and laughed, "Duan Qingqing, if Kong Qingqing passes the exam and wants to divorce my son, I'll just let my son marry you. After all, you're a woman!"

Duan Qingmei glared at her, ignored her, and went into the factory.

Qiu Linghua was truly terrified and clung to Zhou Guizhi, saying, "Your Xu Zhiqing has also registered. What if she passes the exam but your Xiaoye doesn't, and Xu Zhiqing wants to divorce your Xiaoye?"

That's impossible, Zhou Guizhi thought to herself.

She had heard Jiang Xingmei say that her brother was more capable than all the other educated youth, only slightly less capable than her sister-in-law.

“My Xingmei has also signed up!” Zhou Guizhi said. “If you want to keep Kong Zhiqing here, what’s the use of stopping her? Let your Sun Laizi learn from my Xiao Wu and be a little better.”

People's hearts aren't made of stone. Once warmed, they'll be close to you. Even if you and your spouse do divorce in the future, you won't end up like enemies!

Qiu Linghua wouldn't listen to these words. "That little wench of hers, if it weren't for my Sun family, she wouldn't be living so well all these years."

Zhou Guizhi glared at her and said, "Which educated youth in Shangjiang Brigade is doing badly? I'm not saying this to be mean, but Shangjiang Brigade has been doing just as well as the city these past few years. In the city, people with money can't even buy grain, but Shangjiang Brigade has both money and grain. What effort has your family put in?"

Qiu Linghua was so scolded that she didn't dare to lift her head.

Qiu Linghua went to find her son, but Sun Laizi wouldn't listen to her.

"Brother Ye said, you can't confine someone by trapping them; tying someone up is illegal. If she wants to leave, who can stop her? Let her go. I can marry someone better after she leaves. Who doesn't want to marry into Shangjiang Brigade these days?"

"I'll save up for another two years, build a big brick house, and there will be plenty of young, unmarried women coming to my door without asking for a dowry. Who wants a sent-down youth? They're all old women by now."

Sun Laizi was full of confidence, which comforted Qiu Linghua.

However, Kong Lijuan heard about Duan Qingmei's sarcastic remarks to Qiu Linghua, urging her not to let her daughter-in-law register. She was furious and wanted to fight Duan Qingmei, but Shen Jinju persuaded her not to.

"At this crucial moment, don't cause any unnecessary trouble. Now that you've registered, just be careful and make sure no one locks you in the house and makes you miss the exam."
