Xiao Yi paused, his breathing became heavy, he looked back at the pair of bright eyes looking at him in the darkness, and said with difficulty: "Well, I'm leaving."

There was silence in the darkness for a long time, and finally, Ji Qinglan threw back the quilt and got up.

"I send you."

"No need, it's cold outside. Yu Ting will pick me up outside the village entrance." Xiao Yi stopped her.

"I'll take you to the village entrance." Ji Qinglan said, and then Xiao Yi was reluctant to let go of his hand.

They clasped their hands together, unwilling to separate for a long time.

"Okay." Finally, Xiao Yi compromised.

The two of them walked hand in hand with flashlights on the quiet village road. The cold wind was raging and icy raindrops were falling from the sky.

The road was very dark and they couldn't see the road ahead; the road was also very short, so short that the two of them could see the beam of light from the lane ahead shining on the roadside.

Yu Ting was already waiting there. When he saw the two of them coming, he couldn't help but step forward and greet them, "Brother Xiao, sister-in-law."

Two villages outside, the car has already stopped outside the village;

Ji Qinglan: "Comrade Yu, thank you for your hard work."

"You're too polite, sister-in-law. It's not hard." Yu Ting shook his head quickly. He had been transferred to Yanjing with Xiao Yi a long time ago, and he came back with him this time.

Xiao Yi said to Ji Qinglan: "Go back quickly and don't catch a cold. I'll wait for you in Yanjing."

"Sister-in-law, let's meet in Yanjing." Yu Ting also said quickly.

Ji Qinglan nodded and said to the two of them, "Be careful on your journey."

Xiao Yi didn't get into the car until Ji Qinglan's figure disappeared into the darkness. Soon, the car disappeared into the dark fields.

Before Ji Qinglan had time to feel sad, in the morning, Luo Hongyu came over on her bike with Luo Hongxing.

Come over and check answers with Ji Qinglan.

Yin Hong, Zhang Jing and six other educated youth from the educated youth point also came over to check answers. Also coming were Li Changlin's youngest son and eldest grandson who were taking the college entrance examination this year, as well as some candidates from the Honghe Brigade.

They all regarded the Ji family as their base and came over to ask for answers.

Sixteen people chattered, discussing the past exams, sharing their answers, some happy, some sad...

However, facing them, Ji Qinglan could only spread his hands, helpless.

Don't treat her as the answer to the test, she can't do it!

The group of people did not get the expected answer, but they were not disappointed. Instead, they discussed their own answers. When they found out that their answers were different from others, they couldn't help but worry.

In the end, everyone was in a bad mood, with sadness on their faces.

This was also the reason why Ji Qinglan was unwilling to answer. This time, from the announcement of the resumption of the college entrance examination to the examination, it was only two months, and they were fighting a battle for which they were not adequately prepared.

Not only them, many people cannot get good grades.

Luo Hongyu didn't have this worry. When answering the questions, she felt that she had encountered all these questions before. Her godmother had also explained the questions to her, so she was very confident about this exam.

Yin Hong applied to Yenching Minzu University, and Zhang Jing and her boyfriend applied to a normal university in the provincial capital. Except for Yin Hong's application to a key university, the admission scores of the schools Zhang Jing and her boyfriend applied to were relatively low, so it was easier for them to get in.

The group of people were having fun for a long time before leaving.

Luo Hongyu and her brother were left behind, and Luo Hongxing was sent to the cowshed. Luo Hongyu was very excited and said to Ji Qinglan, "Godmother, I think I will definitely pass the exam this time. I got all the questions that they didn't get right."

She saw everyone's reaction just now, but luckily she held back. She always remembered her godmother's teachings, that one should keep one's emotions to oneself, especially not to show one's happiness when others are frustrated and sad, as this would make others jealous...

"Really? Are you so sure?" Ji Qinglan asked her.

Luo Hongyu nodded affirmatively: "Well, my answer is correct."

After the exam yesterday, she locked herself in the room, looking up answers in her books.

"Godmother, thank you. If it weren't for you, I would definitely not have passed the exam." Luo Hongyu hugged Ji Qinglan's waist to express her gratitude.

"It's too early! I don't even know if I'll pass the exam, but I'm already thanking you. What if I don't pass..."

"Impossible, I will definitely pass the exam." Luo Hongyu interrupted her confidently.

The next few days are just waiting.

I'm looking forward to the day when the results will come out.

However, until the end of December and the beginning of January, there was no news about the college entrance examination results.

Ji Qinglan almost thought that she would spend the New Year in the Honghe Brigade.

The Honghe Brigade returned to peace, and the educated youth who had taken leave started working again.

On January 10th, Ji Qinglan took his son to visit relatives in the county town.

Li Miaofang was resting at home and invited Ji Qinglan to her home for dinner.

At the Luo family, Grandma Luo was as enthusiastic as ever, and she and Li Miaofang prepared a large table of dishes.

He kept picking up food for her and Ji Xincheng, worried that they were not eating enough, and his words were full of gratitude.

Before the college entrance examination, Luo Hongyu had been reviewing with Ji Qinglan, and her grades improved significantly.

Director Luo also came back. He and Grandpa Luo each poured a small glass of wine and sipped it slowly.

That year, Director Luo picked a few ginseng roots from the wild ginseng that Luo Hongyu brought back and used them to make wine. He and Grandpa Luo would have a drink from time to time.

After lunch, Ji Qinglan took her son home. On the way, she unexpectedly met Chen Hui, the boy who had sexually assaulted her in the examination room.

Chen Hui was walking with a few young people. When he saw Ji Qinglan riding a bicycle towards them, his eyes became sharp and contemptuous, and he snorted softly.

A young man with a flat head nearby saw him and couldn't help asking him, "Brother Hui, who is that? Do you know him?"

"A woman who doesn't know what's good for her." Chen Hui sneered.

The young man with a flat head had a playful look on his face. He rolled his eyes and said with a low laugh, "Brother Hui, do you want me to help you teach her a lesson?"

"No need, she's just a country woman." Chen Hui glanced at Ji Qinglan.

Chen Hui's eyes were filled with resentment. Ji Qinglan was such an ungrateful woman. She covered the answers tightly during the exam, so that he couldn't see any of them. He almost got warned by the invigilator.

Ji Qinglan did not take Chen Hui seriously. She did not even see Chen Hui in the crowd. After all, Chen Hui looked like an ordinary person and his height was not impressive. He was just an ordinary person in the crowd. It was really difficult to notice him.

As soon as she returned to the Honghe Brigade, a child ran up to her and told her that there was a phone call for her and asked her to go to the village committee as soon as possible.

When Ji Qinglan heard this, he guessed that it might be Xiao Yi. He grabbed a handful of candy for the child and took his son to the village committee.

When they arrived at the office, Liu Yumei saw that she was out of breath from running, and teased her, "It was Comrade Xiao who called. He said he would call back in 20 minutes. You look so anxious. Take a break first. There are still 10 minutes left."

Ji Qinglan smiled awkwardly and glared at Liu Yumei unhappily. The child who delivered the message did not tell her that she would have to wait twenty minutes before calling back.

Liu Yumei started to giggle, causing others in the office to join in the fun.

Ji Qinglan ignored these people and went straight to the telephone room to sit and wait.

Ten minutes later, the landline rang on time.

Ji Qinglan couldn't wait to pick up the phone, and it was indeed Xiao Yi's voice on the other end of the line.

"Qinglan, you passed the exam, congratulations."
