The Ordinary Man's Guide to Fast Travel

In November, fill in the application form.

After discussion, the Chao family and the Gu family decided to focus only on schools in Beijing.

After estimating the scores, Gu Fufeng and Chao Yao's scores should be similar, and Chao Jianguo's may be lower, but no matter how low it is, it is still much better than others.

Gu Fufeng finally decided to apply for the mathematics major at Qingdao University. He believed that mathematics was a widely useful major.

Chao Yao applied to the Department of Clinical Medicine at Qingdao University. She wanted to become a doctor. Such technology would be extremely useful whether in modern times or in ancient times.

Chao Jianguo finally listened to Chao Yao's advice and applied for the major of computer science and technology.

Not long after, the three were notified to take a physical examination and political review. The candidates of their year did not know their test scores, and it was impossible to announce the admission score of that school.

Not publishing college entrance examination scores is a part of admissions discipline. Even the college entrance examinations of all years ten years ago were kept confidential to the candidates, and the candidates had no way of knowing their own scores.

They did whatever the notice told them to do, and only when they received the notice to report in March were they finally sure that they could go to college.

Chao Wujun and his wife took Chao Jianguo and Chao Yao's notices and read them over and over again.

When I read to the end, I started to cry while laughing.

"Good, good, good. The country is good, the policies are good, and there is finally hope for the future!"

Lan Lan touched the name on the notice and wiped her tears with her sleeve.

Colleges and universities do not charge students tuition and accommodation fees, and the state regularly issues scholarships, so the brother and sister do not have to worry about food and clothing while studying.

They went to Beijing City in advance. At that time, the residential buildings in Qiansanmen were still under construction. Given their family's situation, they could not afford to buy a house for the time being. However, this did not prevent the Chao family and the Gu family from joining in the fun and taking a look.

These houses will basically be completed by the end of the year, and this will also be the first time that high-rise slab-type residential buildings and high-rise tower residential buildings will appear in Beijing.

Gu Fufeng looked at the almost completed house in front of him, moved closer to Chao Yao, and whispered to her:

"Yaoyao, I'll buy it for you later!"

Chao Yao was stunned for a moment, his eyes moved, he smiled slightly and nodded.

"Okay."

After the two families looked at the first three houses, Gu Xingxing went to find the editor of the newspaper.

He had written in advance to inquire about renting a house. The two families came from far away, so they couldn't be left without a place to live.

Houses cannot be bought and sold freely now, and private transactions are even more impossible.

You can’t rent a house whenever you want, and housing is scarce.

Fortunately, Gu Xingxing solved these problems in advance, and their two families can continue to be neighbors.

The rented house is not big, and the family can only live in a house of about 50 square meters.

No one would mind this, as the children had all gone to school and they were the only ones left at home.

When school started, the two families sent their children to school together.

Chao Wujun and Lan Lan sent Chao Yao to the dormitory first, and the other people in her dormitory had already arrived.

Chao Yao changed her previous image of wearing patched and gray clothes and instead wore a slim-fit beige cashmere sweater and trousers of high-quality material, and a camel cashmere coat on the outside.

The same went for Chao Jianguo and others. Chao Yao dressed them up nicely.

You are already eligible to take the college entrance examination, and you will no longer be dragged out to fight at any time or place.

The whole family started to grow bolder and as long as I didn't dress too out of line, there was no problem.

She is less than sixteen years old now, but her height has grown to 1.7 meters, which is considered very tall among all the girls.

When the other three people in the dormitory saw Chao Yao, their eyes were involuntarily attracted.

"Wow! Your clothes are so pretty!"

A female classmate wearing a big cotton-padded jacket hurried over. She looked to be around thirty years old and had a daughter who was less than one year old with her.

Chao Yao responded gently: "Thank you, your daughter is also very cute."

"As expected, good-looking people are always sweet-talkers. I am happy when I hear you say that. My name is Chang Lanfang, Lan for orchid and Fang for fragrant. What's your name?"

"My name is Chaoyao, Chao means sunrise, Yao means distant."

Lan Lan then picked up a bag of fruit candies that she had prepared long ago and distributed some to the other three people.

"My daughter will live with you for several years from now on. These are some gifts for us. Our home is far away, so I didn't bring anything else. Please forgive me."

Another female classmate, who was wearing a dark blue cotton-padded jacket, peeled off the candy wrapper and put one into her mouth.

"It tastes good. Where are you from?"

The question was asked bluntly, but Chao Yao did not sense any malice.

She remained calm and said, "We are from the mountain city, not far from here. Comrade, what is your name?"

"My name is Ge Chunmei, Ge for kudzu root, Chun for spring, and Mei for plum blossom. I'm from Jing City, and my family is small, so I can't invite you to my house, but if there's anything you want to know about Jing City, I can tell you anytime."

There was still one female classmate left, and her skin looked dark, probably due to excessive exposure to the sun.

The clothes he was wearing were strangely bulky, and it was winter, and he looked a little pale from the cold.

She lowered her head slightly and stood up.

"My name is Liu Yinran."

"Hmm? Which 'Yin' and which 'Ran'?" Ge Chunmei suddenly asked.

"You've been in the dormitory for so long, and you don't need to introduce yourself. Now you've only said a name, and I don't even know what the three characters are."

Liu Yinran's palms were cold and she was shaking constantly.

She lowered her head, saying nothing and not answering.

"Forget it, forget it. You're like a mute, saying nothing. You'd better not say anything. We will know it later anyway."

Chao Yao frowned. Why does Ge Chunmei's mouth feel like a knife?

"Comrade Liu, you are too nervous, so you don't know how to reply, right?"

Chang Lanfang has a loud voice, with a festive tone.

She saw that Liu Yinran's body was stiff, and knew that the child might have experienced some setbacks.

Liu Yinran looked to be only in her early twenties, and in her eyes, she was no different from her younger sister.

"My...my...'Yin' is the 'Yin' in 'Fragrant grass like a veil', and 'Ran'...is the 'Ran' in 'Out of the mud but unstained'."

Her voice was trembling, her speech was stuttering, and her movements were unsteady.

Chao Yao's gentle voice sounded, "Yinran, don't be afraid. We will be classmates in the future. We must study hard together and contribute our own strength to society! We have the same goal and will be good partners in the future. By the way, what is your major?"

Liu Yinran raised her head and glanced at Chao Yao secretly, then looked at Chao Jianguo and his wife who were busy making the bed and clearing the table behind her, her eyes full of envy.
