During this period, Pei Xiaohong and a group of educated youths from Yongfeng County who returned to the city attended the college entrance examination remedial class review at County No. 1 Middle School every night.

Even Liang Ming, who had vowed not to take the college entrance examination, suddenly signed up on the last day of registration: "Whether you can pass the exam or not, the most important thing is to participate, right? It's a donkey or a horse pulling out for a ride, just work hard.

It can also be regarded as a test of one's own level.

If you can’t get into college, you can get into a technical secondary school.”

As the current "No. 1 Secret of Yongfeng County", Liu Yan is even more busy.

Not only did he still stick to his job, but he also had to provide tutoring and review for more than 30 comrades who signed up to take the college entrance examination in the tutoring classes organized by the county party committee and county government agencies every day after work.

When I got home in the evening, I had to turn on another small stove for Fan Lili and add some extra meals...

Under Pei Changyuan's mobilization, encouragement and leadership, every secretary of the county party committee and county government leaders, as well as most young people in various units of the county party committee, enthusiastically signed up to participate in this college entrance examination and tutoring class.

They also signed a letter of commitment with the Organization Department of the County Party Committee and the Personnel Bureau to return to their original workplace after graduation.

Yongfeng County's approach has set a precedent for Jiangning Province's talent training model in the future to encourage young public officials to actively apply for college and return to work after graduation.

…

On this day, Pei Changyuan said to Liu Yan: "The exam is less than a month away. From tomorrow on, you'd better stop following me. I'll give you a long vacation and study hard!"

"Secretary Pei, you really don't need it! Normally tutoring everyone is equivalent to reviewing by yourself!"

"Where did you get this confidence? If you fail to get into Yenching University, or if you don't do as well as others, you will lose face to me, Pei Changyuan!"

"Don't worry, Secretary Pei, I'll do both work and exams correctly, and I will never embarrass you.

Besides! I have learned a lot while working by your side for more than two months. To be honest, I really can’t bear to leave you.

After I went to college, apart from coming back for a visit every year during the holidays, I couldn’t be by your side for four years. Why don’t I take advantage of this time to learn more from you and listen to your teachings..."

"Look at your mouth...Okay! You can take charge of it yourself and speak up when you have something to say.

I know that you, Haiyang, and Xiaofan are all determined to get admitted to Yenching University or Qinhua University.

If Xiaohong can pass the Yanjing exam with you this time, and her mother and I are not around, you and Haiyang will have to help us take good care of Xiaohong."

"Don't worry! Secretary Pei! Besides, I heard that the educated youth from Yuanping applied for the university in Yanjing, not just the four of us..."

"When you arrive in Yanjing, if you encounter any problems, just give me a call.

In Yanjing, I have several old leaders and comrades-in-arms who can help you in the future."

…

After reviewing day and night, on December 10 and 11, 1977, more than 5.7 million candidates across the country poured into the college entrance examination room that had been closed for more than ten years...

At around seven o'clock in the morning, the entrances of various schools were already crowded with male and female candidates waiting to enter the examination rooms.

Even though there is still more than an hour before the exam starts, those who came early will not be allowed to enter the exam room.

However, everyone still waited at the school gate early, fearing that they would miss the time and lose a rare opportunity.

Although no one knows what these candidates went through in order to take the college entrance examination...

But everyone knows that every one of them cherishes this hard-won opportunity.

Although the winter in Jiangning Province is extremely cold this year, it still cannot stop everyone's enthusiasm for the college entrance examination.

At this moment, the cold wind like a knife was nothing at all. Everyone kept talking and laughing about the college entrance examination with friends they knew or didn't know, and their words were full of excitement and expectation:

"You said that now that the college entrance examination has been resumed, will you no longer need a recommendation to go to college?"

"That's for sure. The college entrance examination has resumed. What else do you recommend?!"

"In my opinion, the college entrance examination is better and fair!"

"That's right. It's fair to select the best based on test scores!"

"Yes, we all compete on the same stage. What we compete for is strength and level. We win with openness and lose with sincerity..."

The word "kao" is like a command, cleaning up the sewage of "study is useless" in the past ten years, and also setting off an upsurge of respecting knowledge, respecting talents, and promoting universal learning...

At this moment, the loudspeaker in the examination center rang:

Attention, all candidates...Attention! According to regulations, you can enter the examination room in fifteen minutes.

Now, all candidates are reminded to take their admission tickets, pens, inks and other exam equipment, and then line up and wait for orderly admission...

The broadcast lasted for several minutes before it ended. At this moment, the candidates at the school gate immediately started to move, preparing to line up to enter.

At 8:15, as the door of the examination room slowly opened, the candidates who had been waiting at the door immediately filed in.

Young candidates from Yuanping Brigade walked into the unified examination room set up in Tianyuan Commune Middle School.

Liu Yan, Fan Lili, Pei Xiaohong and the educated youth who had returned to the city to work in the county entered the examination room set up in Yongfeng County No. 1 Middle School.

At nine o'clock sharp, the college entrance examination, which had been suspended for ten years, officially began!

…

In an instant, the air in the entire examination room seemed to freeze.

Some of the candidates lowered their heads and meditated, some wrote vigorously, some bit the end of their pens, some looked at the questions in a daze, some had relaxed expressions, and some had nervous expressions...

Apart from everyone's rapid breathing, only the rustling of pens was heard.

"Read the questions carefully and do it first if you know how to do it. Don't be nervous."

"Remember to review the questions after you finish. I believe everyone can do well in the exam."

Every invigilator always smiles and constantly gives confidence and encouragement to every candidate.

During the break at the end of each exam, familiar candidates will gather together to discuss and communicate with each other.

"Oh! It turns out to be so simple, why can't I figure it out..."

"Great! We both answered the same question."

"The tutor explained that question during the review..."

"It doesn't matter! This is the first exam. Try to catch up in the subsequent exams..."

Outside the examination room, there are candidates who are full of joy, some who are dejected, some who are silently meditating, some who are passionate, some who are looking at the sky in silence, and some who lower their heads and rub the ground with the toes of their shoes...

…

Two days later, the 1977 winter college entrance examination, which attracted the attention of the whole country, finally came to an end.

The two months from review to exam came and went in a hurry.

When I walked out of the examination room, I saw the clear sky and smelled the fresh air, and I suddenly felt that everything was so beautiful.

However, while most people feel relieved, they suddenly feel uneasy.

I don't know if my results are ideal, and my mood suddenly becomes heavy again.

The excitement is mixed with nervousness, the nervousness is mixed with expectation, and the expectation is mixed with worry. I am on edge, and I feel really bad.

"How are you Lili? How do you feel about yourself?" Pei Xiaohong, who was standing outside the examination room and had come out a few minutes early, hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Fan Lili who had just walked out and asked.

"Overall, I feel it's okay. In fact, I finished it half an hour in advance, but I'm still worried and checked it several times."

"Did you estimate the score?"

"After a conservative estimate, the total score should be more than 470 points. I guess there will be no problem..."

"Wow! That's great, Comrade Fan Lili! It seems you have no problem getting into Yenching University."

"By the way, Sister Xiaohong, how are you?"

"It's almost the same as your feeling. The error is only about 10% at most!"

"Great! Your Qinhua dream can come true! We can go to Yanjing together..."

Then, Yuan Shanshan, Tan Yuanyuan, Li Xiaoming, Liang Ming, and Wang Qiang also came out one after another. Everyone talked to each other and communicated with each other.

"It seems that there is not much difference between the two of us. After all, Liu Yan compiled the review question outline. Between 350 and 400%, there is absolutely no problem."

"I don't know what Zhou Haiyang and the educated youths in the Educated Youth Point are like..."

…

"It seems that everyone is feeling good. Don't think about anything else. Just wait for the physical examination notices from your respective schools!" Liu Yan said as he walked towards everyone.

Then he said to Pei Xiaohong: "Xiaohong, tomorrow I have to go to the countryside with Secretary Pei for investigation. Remember to contact Haiyang and the others and ask how the candidates in Yuanping are doing..."

"Okay!" Pei Xiaohong continued: "By the way! My brother is back from the army.

My parents asked everyone to come to our house tonight and have a meal together as a way of comforting us."

"Okay! Let me show off my skills tonight and let you have a taste of my craftsmanship..." Liu Yan said with a smile.

With that said, everyone walked out of the examination room of Yongfeng County No. 1 Middle School, chatting and laughing.
