Chapter 251 Goose Father
Xu Jing stood in front of the window, staring at the trumpet on the tree not far away, like a chick.
Xu Jing occasionally sent letters to his friends, and they all sent them to the school. Although Xibao Middle School is remote, there will never be any remoteness in Taqian Village.
And if someone sends a letter to his home, he will never use Xu Jing's name.
So, as long as I think about it, Xu Jing's heart thumped wildly, as if she had just started a 100-meter race.
However, before Xu Jing could go out, Xu's father in the yard suddenly dropped his bowls and chopsticks and rushed out.
Xu Jing's room opened the window and looked towards the vegetable field in the middle of the village. In a few seconds, he saw Xu's father running wildly.
Although Xu's father was always dull and honest, he ran very fast, but his movements were a bit strange. When he ran, he was not like the swinging posture of clenching his hands in physical education class and placing his fists at his waist, but instead his arms were upright and his palms were spreading back and forth, like a big goose with his wings hanging down and running wildly.
Xu's father's peers often joked about him because of his father's posture. As he was older, Xu's father rarely ran anymore and walked slowly whatever he did.
But today, he didn't care about anything, he forgot everything, and ran with his fastest pace, like a desperate big goose
One minute.
Two minutes.
Three minutes later, Xu's father appeared again like a big goose. He held a letter in his hand, and the letter with two palms wide swinged with his body.
Behind Xu's father was the village chief, the accountant, and several idle men chatting in the village department.
The village chief, accountant and idle men also ran away, but their speed was too slower than Xu's father.
Xu's father ran up the slope, passed through the open space, and went straight to his own courtyard. When he passed the vegetable field in the central village, he stepped in, but as if he didn't see it, he ran out deep and shallowly, and even if he crushed several vegetables, he didn't care.
Xu Jing tightly pinched the corner of her clothes with both hands, and if she didn't pay attention, she made a "crunching" sound.
"Letter! Read the letter." Xu's father rushed into the courtyard panting, and the sweat beads on his forehead fell down drop by drop.
"Girl, come to see the letter." Xu's mother pulled Xu Jing out of the room. She didn't know the words and was eager to know what was written in it.
Xu's father pinched the letter tightly with three fingers, as if he was pinching an eel, for fear that it would slip away.
Xu Jing took a deep breath and gently opened the letter.
There are three pages of paper in the envelope.
The top one is like a stacked certificate with a few simple notifications printed:
Comrade Xu Jing: With approval, you have been admitted to the physics major of Beijing Normal University. Please report on August 27, 1983.
Xu Jing read it once and then again, but she was afraid that she had missed a certain point and got something wrong.
The other two sheets of paper in the envelope are introductions to the school and major, which was a pioneering move in the early 1980s, so that candidates can understand what the school and major they are about to register for are like.
Xu Jing read them greedily, fantasizing about scenes of himself living on campus.
"What is it said?" Xu's mother couldn't help but ask.
Xu Jing raised her head with tears in her eyes, couldn't help it anymore, and cried out with a "wow" and shouted at the top of her lungs: "I've passed the exam, I've passed the exam..."
"I've passed the exam, really got it?" Xu's mother grabbed her daughter's hand and wiped Xu Jing's tears with her sleeve.
Xu Jing nodded again and kept saying, "I passed the exam, I passed the exam."
"I've passed the exam! Xu Lao Sijie, after so many years, I finally got through." The relatives were also happy for Xu Jing, throwing out beautiful words like they didn't have money.
Xu's father was sweating heavily on his forehead, his legs and feet trembled slightly, and he could no longer stand, and his body fell backwards involuntarily.
A young man hugged Xu's father with a "yo" voice and said with a smile: "The fourth uncle is so happy."
Xu's father still couldn't speak, his lips trembled twice, and with the help of the other party, he slowly fell on the threshold of his own house.
Uncle Qiu and the people he brought were a little embarrassed. Uncle Qiu handed a cigarette to Xu's father and smiled and said, "Brother Xu is capable, and finally let you get through. I think this is better. Xu Jing goes to study, and our family pays her to study. When she graduates, if she is assigned to go back to Pingjiang or Nanhu, we will have a wedding. If she goes to another place, I will recognize a daughter and have three years of college and technical school, and there is no delay..."
"Lao Qiu." The village chief just entered the door. At this time, he sat next to Xu's father, hugged Xu's shoulders, and smiled: "The admission notice for college and technical secondary school was not issued at this time."
"What?"
"The kid from the fourth family is taking the college entrance examination, not a technical secondary school, you understand." Village chief Xu Sanba took out a tobacco rod from behind his waist, knocked hard on the threshold, and said, "Your sick man, marrying someone's college student, are you not sick, are you? You still have to pay the tuition? There are hundreds of people in our Taqian Village, but they can't afford a college student?"
"What?" Uncle Qiu was stunned. The calmness and sophistication he pretended to have disappeared without a trace.
The village chief sneered and said, "Xiaojing, what school are you taking? Tell us Uncle Qiu."
Xu Jing raised a crying face, a little shy and proudly said: "Beijing Normal University."
"The university in Beijing!"
"I'm going to go to Beijing to go to university!"
"The old fourth family will be a capitalist in the future."
With Xu Jing's words, good words for not having money were sent again.
At this time, the village heard the sound of horns and saw Xu's father running wildly, and all the villagers came to the door curiously.
In the past few years, in addition to the creditors collecting debts, the Xu family has never had so many people coming to the house. Xu's mother was so happy that she was at a loss and the room was full of wandering around.
The neighbors did not hide their own personalities, and accompanied Xu's mother to be happy, and took the melon seeds and candies hidden from home to the Xu family to greet the villagers.
The village chief even patted Xu's father on the shoulder and sighed, "Beijing Normal University is amazing, amazing."
Xu's father seemed to have recovered, and he awkwardly pinched a cigarette and said, "Tell me what's wrong with this school?"
"Let your girl tell you." The village chief shouted: "Xiaojing, tell us about your school."
"I'll read it for you." Xu Jing washed her face with a towel, and her face seemed to be covered with oil, and said shinyly: "Beijing Normal University is abbreviated as Beijing Normal University. It is a national key university directly under the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China..."
"The key point is the key point!" A wife with children shouted.
Xu's father said: "Just just listening to key universities, what does the key mean?"
"The key point is that the university that the country supports is the best university in China, with a total of 88." Xu Jing had heard Yang Rui say before, and then explained with his neck raised.
The village chief laughed and said, "It is the national university ranking, among the top 88 universities."
"Beijing Normal University is more than 88, maybe it can be 20 or 30 miles away." Xu Jing didn't dare to say more, and his voice was a little weaker.
"Where can I be assigned to Pingjiang?" Xu's father asked anxiously.
"At least it will be assigned to Pingjiang." The village chief was not very clear, but at this time, he had to say good things.
Xu Jing raised her head and suddenly felt that the sky was different and the earth was different. Even the wind blowing through the trees became warmer.
"Fourth brother, look at this..." Uncle Qiu squeezed in from the edge of the crowd and looked at Xu's father with a bitter face.
Xu's father smiled and said, "Look, Xiao Jing looks like this, it's hard to say where she is assigned to you. Maybe she will be assigned to Beijing. Besides, if you have to study for four years in undergraduate studies, don't let your Xiao Lei wait."
"Yes, don't wait. Xu Jing from our Taqian Village doesn't need you to find a job." Some of Xu Jing's aunts said with a loud laugh.
Uncle Qiu's face was flushed, nodded and said yes, turned his face, and said to Xu Jing: "Xiaojing, don't blame you Uncle Qiu. I just want to make a marriage with your family because you have the ability. You have a good future now, and Uncle Qiu is happy for you..."
"Uncle Qiu, it's okay, no one blames you." Xu Jing also said a beautiful sentence.
Uncle Qiu nodded repeatedly and said, "It's good if you don't blame me, it's good if you don't blame me."
As he spoke, he was squeezed out by the excited young man.
Three thin pieces of paper were cherished by them and were very curious.
An admission letter is like a ticket to heaven, with endless magic.
