Chapter 155 Admission
Author: cool beauty
It was almost half past eleven when the contractor came.
Zhao Laosi and Zhao Feifei had just returned from delivering stew to a dozen families, and the family was about to sit down for lunch.
Xiao Hong saw the contractor coming in and asked Xiao Fang to greet him.
Xiao Fang is much more courageous now, and of course he will not be frightened even if his eyes and ears are affected.
"Uncle, serve your own food here." Xiao Fang smiled at him and said, "I'll serve you the food."
Xiao Hong asked her to make this dish, a large bowl of shredded pork, eggplant and fried peppers, a plate of cold kelp, and egg soup with luffa, seaweed, shrimp, and eggs.
Although there is no big fish or meat, the oily look makes people appetizing.
The stir-fried eggplant and pepper go very well with rice, and you can also chew some fragrant shredded pork.
There is oil, vinegar and chili in the cold seaweed, which makes it very fragrant.
The soup will be more fragrant and have a bit of meaty flavor.
People nowadays have big appetites, especially the contractor who has been working very hard for a long time. These two big bowls of rice and these dishes can also satisfy him.
Xiao Fang had been paying attention to the movements of the foreman. When he saw that he had finished eating, he quickly put down his bowl and chopsticks and asked, "Are you full?"
"When you're full," the foreman asked in disbelief, "Are you going to be like this tomorrow with two dishes and one soup for one dollar?"
"That's for sure. The dishes will be changed, but the prices won't change."
The foreman paid a deposit of five yuan and agreed that twelve people would come over to eat tomorrow.
The plasterers he found were all good, and he wanted to keep them working, so he decided to pay 50 cents for them, and they would pay the remaining 50 cents themselves.
This way they will definitely be happy and they can win over people's hearts.
When Xiao Hong saw Xiao Fang sending the person away, she hummed a tune and put the money in the drawer, and reminded her: "There are more than one house building here now, why don't you ask other people?"
"I'll go right away." Xiao Fang felt a little guilty, feeling that she had thought too little and was not as long-term as her sister.
Xiao Hong looked at her leaving figure and was thinking about his little Jiujiu.
She deliberately found something for Xiao Fang to do.
To everyone, she can say that she is training Xiao Fang.
Of course this is actually true.
There is also an unspeakable little thought. She wants to go to the provincial capital. If she doesn't find something to trip up Xiao Fang, her family will definitely ask her to accompany them.
Now that Xiao Fang is busy, she can go to the provincial capital alone.
She wanted to take the opportunity to exchange the little yellow croaker for money so that she could buy a house and have a place to stay.
She was not going to tell her family about this unexpected fortune.
I don’t want money to make my family have other thoughts.
She also didn't dare to use money to test human nature.
Moreover, she is applying for a university before the college entrance examination. As an older sister, she can find something to do for her younger sister, which can also distract her and prevent her from getting too nervous.
Nowadays, key universities basically do not accept second choice applicants.
If your first choice is not admitted, then even if your second choice score is sufficient, the possibility of not being admitted is very high.
This resulted in everyone not daring to go higher after estimating their scores.
Even if Xiao Fang usually gets good grades, she doesn't dare to be complacent.
Moreover, they all chose schools in provincial capitals, and did not go as far as to go to famous universities in the capital or other cities.
The provincial capital can be considered their hometown after all, and there are more than 20 universities, which are enough for them to choose from.
Xiao Hong chose four universities and four majors with the lowest admission scores in the past. She felt that if her scores were not good enough, she would spend money to go to a technical school.
Now we are waiting to see if we can be admitted.
She wants to find a house closer to her school.
And Xiao Fang also started to be busy with the fast food business.
Now she has taken over the lunch business of the house builders, and even nearby merchants will order fast food for a change.
As a result, the uncle's family didn't have enough vegetables, so Zhao Laosi made an agreement with the villagers that each family would take turns to harvest the excess vegetables.
Although it is only a few cents per catty, you don’t have to worry about feeding good vegetables to pigs, and if you harvest them forty or fifty catties, you can earn three or four yuan.
During this period, Yan Hong also called her, and Xiao Mengqiu also called to care about their results.
Days passed day by day, and on the afternoon of July 16, the postman's voice came together with the sound of bicycle bells: "Is there anyone there? Get the admission notice."
Grandma Zhao ran out with a speed that was not suitable for her age. She smiled like a chrysanthemum and asked loudly, "Comrade, is this the admission notice for my granddaughter?" She was afraid that others wouldn't hear her.
Although he was asking someone, he stretched out his hands tremblingly to receive it.
These days, the family has been looking forward to the arrival of the admission notice, but they have not said it at home, for fear that the Xiao sisters will be nervous.
Now that she has finally received the admission notice, Grandma Zhao can't wait to show off her granddaughter's potential with drums and gongs.
The Xiao sisters also came out. The postman was very responsible and looked at their ID cards before giving them the admission notice: "Congratulations!"
Going to college means stepping out of the agricultural field and half-stepping into the government agency.
Therefore, the neighbors who heard the noise also gathered around and praised them with smiles.
Xiao Fang got her wish and was admitted to Provincial University.
Xiao Hong was shocked when she saw that she was admitted to the Agricultural University.
She just didn't want to turn her back to the loess and face to the sky, so she wanted to go to the provincial capital.
When she first applied for this application, she had to make up the numbers. She first applied for Jiaotong University, Kindergarten Teachers College, and Industrial and Commercial University. Who would have thought that she would be admitted to the Agricultural University.
However, facing everyone's surprised looks, Xiao Hong felt that her personality could not be broken: "I just want to contribute to the villagers, improve the quality of crops, and cultivate more and better fruits."
Yes, that's what she thought at the time.
Because there are so few fruits available now, she was greedy when filling out her application form. She especially wanted to eat mangoes, fresh lychees, longans, strawberries, etc.
Then, as if possessed by a ghost, he filled out the Crop Science program at the Agricultural College.
Grandma Zhao absolutely believed that Xiao Hong was capable of going to a better university. She could only look at her with regret: "You are really too honest kid."
Xiao Fang knew about her sister's achievements, but she would not undermine her and would just laugh on the sidelines.
In any case, it was a great joy for the two sisters to be admitted to college. Zhao Laosi closed the business the next day, bought a lot of good food and went back, and entertained his family, brother and sister-in-law for eight tables.
After I came out, I invited the neighbors I was friends with to have a meal.
Even Xu Xiushan brought his sons to join in the fun and invited them to eat at his house tomorrow: "Our children are classmates now and will still be classmates in college. This is really rare. We have prepared a few tables for lunch tomorrow.
Your whole family is coming."
Xiao Hong also received a call from Yan Hong before, knowing that they would also find time to come over, and specially invited her to visit the provincial capital then.
