With this promotion, Zhu Lin's salary also increased. She was originally just a clerk, which was a fourth-level clerk treatment. The Medical Research Institute itself is a degree system, so her monthly salary was 49.5 (college students participating in work, level 22). However, after the adjustment, she was successfully converted to a regular employee, and her salary increased to 56 yuan, plus the 15 yuan college student subsidy, the total is 71 yuan.

He Yuzhu calculated that his family is now a working couple, with a legal monthly income of 188.5 yuan. For a normal life, yuan a month is enough for buying food. How much can two people eat? Oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, etc., at most spend or yuan. As for daily necessities such as toothpaste, soap, and towels, even if they are changed more frequently, yuan is the maximum. Everyone likes cleanliness. Now there is a bathroom, so they should build it!

In addition, there are clothes and shoes, which are also indispensable in life. Zhu Lin likes literature and art and is happy to pursue fashion. Women should be pampered. He Yuzhu is much simpler. A T-shirt can last a whole summer, so what's wrong with spending 30 yuan?

With this calculation, a family of two needs at least fifty yuan per month to get by. Haha, isn’t that too extravagant?

For example, the third uncle's family only had 30 yuan a month in the past. I really don't know how they managed to survive. He Yuzhu admired them very much. Of course, later on, the children all started working. Although they all separated and lived on their own, they still had the legal obligation to support them. So each family gave the third uncle and his wife 5 yuan a month. Together with his pension, they saved a lot over the years.

Now that He Yuzhu has a system mall, apart from buying clothes and shoes, and occasionally some non-staple food to show off, he basically doesn't have to spend any money on anything else. It can be said that now in the Siheyuan, their family is definitely the richest~

……

On the third day after Laba Festival, it snowed heavily in Kyoto. It was also on that day that He Yuzhu finally received the university admission letter. The postman delivered it directly to the steel rolling mill. When he arrived at the security department, many employees had already gathered there. They had also taken the college entrance examination, but some were excited while others were disappointed. There was nothing he could do because reality was so cruel.

"Director He, your letter!" He Yuzhu took the envelope, and he was a little uneasy.

The admission notice is very simple. It only says that the Municipal Supervisory Committee will forward it to Comrade He Yuzhu. You have been approved by the Municipal Admissions Committee to study information and engineering at Peking University. Please report to the school between March 1978 and 3, 22 with this notice.

Below are the official seals of the Admissions Committee and the school. There are also a few other things to note: when reporting in, you need to bring your organization, household registration, and grain and oil relations, your own daily necessities, three one-inch photos, etc.

"Why is it Peking University?" He Yuzhu said to himself, "Obviously my first choice was Tsinghua University!"

The psychological gap is a bit big.

It's not that he thinks Peking University is bad, but he thinks it's easier to get things done at Tsinghua because he has acquaintances there, and Professor Xu is there to keep things in check. He Yuzhu's target is the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and he originally thought he could get some benefits, but now his hopes are dashed.

"Everyone, come and see, Director He has been admitted to Peking University!" Someone with sharp eyes sneaked a peek at He Yuzhu's admission letter and immediately exclaimed.

Everyone gathered around.

"Really? Director He, you are amazing!"

"Director He, you have to treat us!"

"Director He, you can go to school while still working!"

"..."

"..."

Well, it’s hard to have peace and quiet this time. He Yuzhu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Sure enough, in less than an hour, everyone in the factory knew that he had been admitted to Peking University. People who knew him or not all rushed to the cafeteria office to join in the fun. It was a scene so exciting that the threshold was almost broken by the crowd.

"Director He, please share your experience with us!"

"That's right, I'll take the exam next year too!"

"Ha ha!"

"..."

He Yuzhu laughed and said, "No test, but I do have a piece of advice!"

When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up and they hurriedly asked, "Director He, what advice can you give me?"

"Go home and look in the mirror first to see if you are the right material!"

Everyone was stunned, and then burst into laughter.

"Ha ha!"

"You're making fun of us!"

At this time, the phone rang. It was the factory director's secretary calling, asking He Yuzhu to go to the factory to handle something.

"Go away, go away, go away!"

When he arrived at the factory director's office, not only was Director Hou there, but Secretary Kuang was also there. He Yuzhu quickly greeted them, "Director, Secretary, what's the matter with you calling me over?"

The two big men looked at each other and laughed a few times. Finally, Secretary Kuang spoke first. He smiled and said, "Comrade He Yuzhu, you are amazing. You got into university without any noise!"

"No, no, it's mainly because of the kindness of you two leaders!" He Yuzhu flattered him. He was not familiar with this big boss and was somewhat restrained.

"Haha, you kid!"

Factory Director Hou was watching from the sidelines and was laughing: "Okay, there are no outsiders here, so don't be restrained, sit down and talk!"

I've been waiting for you to say this!

After He Yuzhu sat down, Director Hou said seriously: "I asked you to come here this time to congratulate you on your admission to university. You have won honor for our factory, which deserves praise!"

He Yuzhu waited quietly for what to come.

I only heard the factory manager say: "The second one~"

As he spoke, he looked at Secretary Kuang and motioned for him to speak.

"This is the second one!"

Secretary Kuang took over the conversation and said in a dignified manner: "Comrade He Yuzhu, after our investigation, you have met the requirements for joining the party, so we have decided to accept you into the party organization. Now we want to hear your opinion!"

Join the party?

He Yuzhu was confused. He didn't mention it earlier or later, but had to wait until I was admitted to university to mention it. What did he mean? Was he trying to trap me?

Although joining an organization is a glorious thing, it will definitely have an impact on your future development. At the very least, if you want to be a profiteer, you can no longer do whatever you want.

Forget it, let’s just deal with it first. By the time I graduate, I don’t know whether the factory will still be there!

"Thanks for the organization's trust, I have no objection!" He thought for a moment and said, "It's just that I will go to school after the New Year, and I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of the work in the factory!"

"As long as you have no objection!" Director Hou took out an application form and said to He Yuzhu, "The section chief under you is called Qian Defa, right? How is his work?"

Damn, Lao Qian is going to be promoted!

"He works diligently and has a positive attitude. He is a rare talent!" Director He lied without blushing.

"That's good. After you leave, let him take over your job first!"

"If I go to school while working, will I still get paid?" He Yuzhu asked the question that concerned him most.

"Haha, I knew you would ask that!" Director Hou took out a form and said, "Don't worry, your salary will be paid as usual. The steel mill is still waiting for you to make great progress in the future!"

Well, what this sentence means is that when you graduate you will have to go back to the steel mill to carry bricks.

Damn it, I knew it was a trap!

He Yuzhu filled out two forms and wrote an application to join the party. With the guidance of the two big men, he wrote nearly three thousand words. Then he would wait for the party's political review and external investigation. There was no problem with his history, and his social relations were not complicated. Apart from an unreliable father, his background could not be simple.

At noon, the factory office wrote an article for the radio station to read out, which was specifically to praise the employees who were admitted to universities, colleges and technical secondary schools. It hoped that everyone would have the courage to work hard, achieve greater success in school, and add luster to the steel mill.

To celebrate this event, the canteen specially added a dish - Four Joys Meatballs, which symbolizes the four joys in life: passing the imperial examination, meeting a beauty in a foreign land, wedding night, and meeting a sweet rain after a long time. Many young people in the factory are still single, so this saying is too appropriate, haha~

Compared to the bustle of the factory, the Siheyuan was no less lively. When the news that He Yuzhu had been admitted to Peking University came back, many people could not believe it.

"Did Shazhu get into college?"

"Unbelievable!"

"Is this a mistake? How did Shazhu get into college? He's not as good as me!"

"..."

"Bah, you ungrateful thing. If my Dongxu hadn't given you two steamed buns, you would have starved to death. What's more, you can't even take the college entrance examination in your next life!" Jia Zhang cursed in the house.

Huaihua looked envious!

Xiaodang looked jealous!

The widow looked so lonely!

But the three of them have a common mentality, that is, this honor originally belonged to their family. They all have a stupid dad, a stupid uncle, and a stupid pillar. How come this stupid guy suddenly became smart?

How great it would be in the past, you would form an alliance and our family would suck your blood, and we would have fun together, how perfect!

……

In the yard, the third uncle chased He Yuzhu and insisted that he treat them to a meal. This was an agreement, and now it was time to fulfill it. The third uncle was more enthusiastic than anyone else.

"Don't worry, Third Uncle, we have prepared the peanuts and melon seeds!" He Yuzhu took out a bag from home and said to the Third Uncle with a smile, "Please come to the front and back yards to say hello!"

"Okay!" The third uncle ran to call for help happily.

Soon, all the idle people gathered in the middle courtyard. Some people who were curious even brought over a table. He Yuzhu poured peanuts and melon seeds on the table. The neighbors rushed over and snatched away all the food in minutes.

"Zhu Zi, congratulations!" An old lady has recovered from her illness and now comes out to join in the fun.

He Yuzhu looked at Yi Zhonghai standing in the distance and laughed inwardly, thinking that this old man was quite reserved.

"Thank you, Auntie, come and have some candy!"

"Oh, that's enough, Zhuzi!" An old lady laughed so hard that she couldn't open her eyes.

He Yuzhu was chatting with everyone while observing his surroundings. Suddenly he saw Jia Zhang sneaking around and finally running back home with her hands covering her pockets. It seemed that she had gained a lot. It was really a good deal for this old woman.

"Uncle Silly, I want to borrow your book!" Huaihua has become very shy and dares not speak loudly.

He Yuzhu asked with a stern face: "What did you call me?"

Huaihua realized that she had said the wrong thing and quickly changed her words: "Uncle He!"

"Ok!"

He Yuzhu stared at her for a few seconds, until Huaihua felt uneasy, and then he said, "I can lend you the book, but you have to remember to return it, understand?"

"Got it~"

At this time, Xiao Dang was unhappy: "Silly uncle, what is our relationship? Look at you carefully reading a few old books!"

She still likes the old Sha Zhu, there is no way, the current He Yuzhu is too unfamiliar, Xiao Dang is not used to it.

But the only two words she responded to were: "Get lost!"

"Humph!"

Xiaodang stomped his feet in anger and ran away.

When Zhu Lin came back from get off work, He Yuzhu told her about joining the party. Zhu Lin was a party member, so she had no objection.

"Haha, we will be gay from now on!"

He Yuzhu's mouth twitched: "Don't make a fuss, we are obviously husband and wife, and we can't change it in this life!"
