Chapter 373 The Poor Educated Youth Forced to Go to the Countryside 45

"Gu Zhiqing, I heard that you have high school books here, can you lend me a few?"

"Sure, these are all the books I've read, pick a few."

"Okay, thank you Gu Zhiqing! I'll give it back to you after I finish reading it. Don't worry, I won't write anything nonsense in it."

"Well, it's okay."

"Gu Zhiqing, Xia Zhiqing..."

"Okay, we've looked at all of these, just take them."

Ever since the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination was broadcast, all the educated youth have been frantically looking for books.

However, before this, most of the books in people's hands were thrown away, and only a few who loved reading and were reluctant to do so did not throw them away.

So, finding books is a very difficult thing.

Everyone rushed to the county town to look for books. However, no matter how fast the educated youth in the team ran, they could not be faster than those who lived in the county town.

Almost all the books that could be found in the county had been searched, and even the scrap yard had been emptied out, leaving only real garbage.

Seeing that they were worried about books, Gu Qian discussed with Xia Fangli about lending out the books they had read before.

Of course Xia Fangli had no objection. After all, most of these books were bought by Gu Qian, and she only shared a small part of the cost.

Besides, we all came from the city, and we all know the pain of having no freedom in the countryside, so we all want to go back.

It would be great if their books could help more educated youth get into college.

Because the college entrance examination was reopened, not only the educated youth wanted to participate, but some people in the team who had been to school also wanted to participate.

The brigade took into consideration that many people had to take the college entrance examination and needed time to study, so they reduced the working hours of young people, and of course their work points were also reduced.

It’s up to you to choose. If you want to spend more time studying, you will get fewer work points.

Most people in the Youth League Institute chose to shorten their working hours and reduce their food and clothing in order to study.

As long as I pass the exam, I can leave here completely, and the temporary hardship is nothing.

The same goes for Gu Qian and Xia Fangli. They are not short of money and will not starve to death even if they don't work.

Not long after, it was time to register for the college entrance examination. The two asked for leave from the team leader and went to the county town.

When they arrived at the registration point, they showed their identification to the staff and then they were given registration forms.

After filling in the previous information, when it came time to fill in the college entrance examination application form, Xia Fangli hesitated.

"Qianqian, are you sure you're going to choose Capital University?"

"Yes!" Gu Qian nodded firmly, "But don't worry, there are several volunteer places. My first choice is Capital University, and the next ones will be other schools in the capital."

There was a flash of hesitation and confusion in Xia Fangli's eyes, and then it turned into determination.

"Then I'll also apply to Capital University!"

The two of them made their decision quickly. They chose the same school but different majors.

Gu Qian basically chose the Chinese department. She thought she would just do some literary work in her life, which would be easy and not complicated.

Xia Fangli chose economics.

In fact, she also wanted to choose the Chinese Department like Gu Qian at first, so that they could be classmates.

But Gu Qian knew that after they graduated, it would be the time for economic development. Even if Xia Fangli didn't understand this aspect, with her watching over her, she would always be able to get a share of this huge market full of opportunities.

Therefore, Gu Qian did a lot of analysis for Xia Fangli, told her the benefits of this major, and also clearly told her that she did not choose it because she was not interested in economics.

Of course, she did not force her, and finally let Xia Fangli make her own choice.

Xia Fangli herself was not very sensitive to money and economic matters, but she could feel that what Gu Qian said was true.

Although she has never lacked money since she was a child, she cannot lose it because she knows the importance of money.

She felt that what Gu Qian said made sense. One doesn’t have to study economics to work in economics, but having a major would be more convincing.

After making up her mind, she decisively chose economics.

Half a year passed in a flash, and soon it was the eve of the college entrance examination.

Gu Qian and Xia Fangli both followed the people from the educated youth compound and took a bus to the county town.

They found a hotel together and booked rooms with the note issued by the team leader. Two people stayed in one room, and Gu Qian and Xia Fangli stayed in one room.

"Qianqian, are you nervous?"

"Don't be nervous!"

"I'm so nervous! This is the college entrance examination, and it's my first time since I recovered. I'm really panicking! What if I fail or something unexpected happens in the examination room?"

"No, no! Why are you scaring yourself when the exam hasn't even started yet?"

"I've never experienced this before. Everyone is so nervous!"

"Just remember not to eat anything messy before the test, don't eat anything that has been touched by others, relax, and follow the rules and requirements during the test. Don't be afraid!"

"I'll be careful. If I forget, remind me."

"I will definitely be watching you. Just remember to keep calm, and you won't be nervous during the exam. You will only think about how to solve the questions in front of you."

"Uh-huh!"

The next day, Gu Qian and Xia Fangli followed everyone and arrived at the examination room on time.

Seeing the candidates around her who were either nervous or full of expectation, Xia Fangli took a few deep breaths and tried to calm herself down.

After entering the examination room, the test papers were distributed.

Gu Qian quickly glanced through the questions and found that the current college entrance examination questions were still slightly simpler than those decades later.

But many of the solutions now are very different from those later. The difficulty lies in trying not to write them too differently so as not to attract other people's attention.

Xia Fangli's hands were shaking a little at first, but when she remembered Gu Qian's words, she looked at the test paper in front of her, slowly calmed down, and immersed herself in answering the questions.

Everything went smoothly during the exam, and after finishing the last subject, both of them walked out of the exam room breathing a sigh of relief.

No matter what the result is, at least this period of hard preparation for the exam has come to an end for the time being.

"Qianqian, we're finally done with the exam!" Xia Fangli rushed out of the examination room, with tears in her eyes, and hugged Gu Qian, who had handed in her paper early and was waiting for her outside.

Gu Qian smiled and patted her on the back, "Yeah, the exam is over, you can relax now."

"Yeah!" Xia Fangli nodded while crying and smiling.

“I believe we can all go further!”

"Yes! We can all do it, I can do it!"

After the exam, everyone couldn't calm down for a long time, some were sad, some were excited and happy. Everyone chattered all the way to the state-owned restaurant, ready to reward themselves with a good meal.

Since the AA system is not advocated now and food is precious, everyone orders their own food.

In order to eat more, Gu Qian and Xia Fangli each ordered different dishes.

Gu Qian ordered the special pot-fried pork and braised pork.

Xia Fangli ordered dumplings and sauerkraut vermicelli.

These dishes were not cheap, and both of them spent a few dollars.

The other people around were envious of the generosity and generosity of the two female educated youth.

Even if they were celebrating, they wouldn't dare spend money like this.

If they fail the exam, they will have to continue staying here; if they pass the exam, they will need tuition and living expenses, and they will still have to tighten their belts.

However, some people ordered meat dishes. As long as the male educated youth were not in particularly difficult circumstances, they all ordered meat. After all, it was a rare opportunity to have a good meal.
