We are all reborn, who will be your control group?

Under Xie Guiqiu's desperate eyes, Wen Qin started reviewing in the afternoon.

He even asked Jie Mingxia to get a piece of wood and write on it with chalk, "166 days until the college entrance examination."

Hang it next to the calendar.

"Sister-in-law, are you serious?" Xie Guiqiu felt that the chicken legs in the bowl were no longer fragrant.

"Of course it's true. Let's review it together."

"Can you spend the New Year well before going to school?" Xie Guiqiu lay on the table and refused to move. "I don't want to wash dishes and I don't want to study."

"Then let's exchange our notes? I actually want to see my cousin's notes."

Xie Guiqiu jumped up immediately: "I'll go wash the dishes."

In the afternoon, the dining table was cleared away and moved by Jie Mingxia to the door of the main room, where the lighting was better.

Seeing the two of them start reading, Xie Mingxia went out again.

The machinery factory has already closed for holiday at this time, and I don’t know what Xie Mingxia is busy with.

However, Wen Qin still believed Jie Mingxia and did not ask.

Wen Qin first glanced at the books on mathematics, physics and chemistry. He was able to understand them, but he had to memorize the formulas again.

Chinese and politics are okay, but some textbook content needs to be memorized again.

Wen Qin took the adult college entrance examination and attended cram school in his later life. When he picked up the textbooks again, he found that they were still in good condition and he had not returned them completely to the teacher.

Plus, I had the biggest cheat in my hand, so I wasn't panicking.

Xie Guiqiu is in a miserable situation. It has been three years since she graduated from junior high school. Her grades were just so-so at the time, and now she can only remember 70% or 80% of what she learned. Without a teacher to tutor her, it is too difficult for her to study on her own.

Wen Qin saw her flipping through the textbook with a bitter face, so she had to comfort her: "It's okay, if you don't pass this year, you can take it again next year. If you can't pass next year, there's always the year after next. You can always pass. Besides, it's not bad to get a major."

Xie Guiqiu looked at Wen Qin in disbelief: "Sister-in-law, are you a devil? What if I can't pass the exam in this life?"

Although Xie Guiqiu later replaced Li Mingxia and went to the machinery factory, she went crazy because of Ye Pin's incident, and the machinery factory went bankrupt and reorganized. Her final ending was not really good.

Wen Qin said word by word: "Then take the exam for the rest of your life."

It gets dark early in winter. Xiaxi is a little far from the town, and the Xie family didn't turn on the lights. Wen Qin put away all the books and didn't let Xie Guiqiu continue reading: "Watch your eyes."

Then I went back to cooking.

What I made today is pickled fish. I don’t have black fish this time, so I used the sliced ​​black fish that Jie Mingxia brought back yesterday.

It's such a big fish. The fish head will be used to make fish soup tomorrow, and the fish tail will be braised tomorrow. Fish is a must for New Year's Eve dinner here. The fish belly will be sliced ​​and used to make pickled fish today.

The sauerkraut used was from a seasoning packet purchased online, and Wen Qin had pickled the cabbage and radish that Jie Guiqiu had exchanged for yesterday, so they would be ready to eat tomorrow.

When Xie Mingxia came back, he was carrying several crucian carps and two pairs of black leather shoes.

"Where did this come from?" Crucian Carp was not surprised, but this pair of leather shoes could not be bought just like that.

"I asked someone to go to Shanghai to bring them. I was going to give them to you on the wedding day, but their ship broke down and I was late. I was out again and left the things at the factory." Xie Mingxia was very fair, giving his wife a pair and his sister a pair. "Now they are just right for the New Year."

Fashion is a cycle. The style of the shoes is similar to the Mary Jane shoes of later generations. They are pretty good-looking. The materials and workmanship are so expensive that you can't get them without hundreds of dollars. Nowadays, they are not cheap either. Not only do you need money, but you also need tickets.

"Where did the ticket come from?" Wen Qin asked. After all, they were married, and she had to have some idea of ​​how Jie Mingxia made money, otherwise she would not know if something went wrong one day.

"My comrades in the army knew I was getting married, so they gathered for me." The light from the kerosene lamp was orange-yellow, and it sprinkled on Jie Mingxia with an indescribable warmth. He was much taller than Wen Qin, and he just lowered his head and stared into her eyes, without any avoidance or concealment.

There was a small spot in Wenqin's heart that seemed to melt a little.

"I told my sister before that I wanted to go to the county to sell egg pancakes to make money, but my sister scolded me."

Wen Qin suddenly changed the subject, and Jie Mingxia was a little puzzled.

"My sister said that since I'm married now, I need to do things and can't just think on my own. I need to discuss it with you." Wen Qin raised her head and looked directly at Jie Mingxia. "Later, I decided to move to the city. The county town was no longer suitable, so I wanted to go to college. Not only did I want to go to college myself, but I also wanted Jie Guiqiu to go to college. But I didn't discuss it with you either."

Xie Mingxia seemed to hesitate for a moment, but finally raised his hand and touched her head: "You are doing this for Gui Qiu's own good. Even if you discuss it with me, I will agree."

Wen Qin shook her head: "No, my sister is right. No matter whether this matter is right or wrong, I should discuss it with you. Just like when you suddenly brought something back today, I would panic and wonder where these things came from. I can't just take care of myself and ignore you, right? We are husband and wife now, and we are a family."

"Xie Mingxia, I'm sorry."

For Wen Qin, this "I'm sorry" was an apology that was thirty years late. From the moment she heard the news of his sacrifice in the south, and from the moment Wen Qin was reborn in this era, she had been looking for an opportunity to say "I'm sorry" to Jie Mingxia.

"Whatever I do in the future, I will consider our family. My family is no longer just my father, my brothers and sisters, but also you and Jie Guiqiu." Wen Qin said calmly. Jie Mingxia seemed a little confused at first, but then became a little excited.

Although Jie Mingxia quickly hid his hands behind his back, Wen Qin still saw that his hands were trembling slightly.

"Since you've said that we are a family, you don't have to say sorry." Xie Mingxia turned his head away and didn't look at Wen Qin again, but Wen Qin saw that his ears were a little red.

Wen Qin smiled: "Well, so now I want to discuss something with you, and by the way, I also want you to help me."

Xie Mingxia then turned around and said, "Go ahead."

"I just want to do some small business." Wen Qin spoke slowly, observing Jie Mingxia's reaction.

The crime of speculation and profiteering still exists today, and many people are almost afraid to even talk about doing business.

Fortunately, Jie Mingxia was obviously not that kind of person. He was very calm and just frowned slightly. Wen Qin knew what was going on.

"I saw someone in the county selling sweet potatoes in the hospital. Before, I also asked Guiqiu to take the flowers and exchange them for vegetables."

Xie Mingxia's frown finally relaxed: "Do you want to start a hair flower business?"

Wen Qin shook her head: "My sister knows an aunt in the county. Her daughter is getting married next year and she wants some embroidery, but she doesn't have the skills. I remember there is an aunt Zhang in the village who has great skills. We can exchange her with grain. Do you think it's feasible?"
