Chapter 677: I also want to take the exam
And at this moment, the Song family could be described as having a good atmosphere.
Song's eldest daughter-in-law let her brother-in-law and her own daughter go to keep Lu Qiaoling company, while she and Song's second daughter-in-law cooked in the kitchen.
Song's second daughter-in-law looked at Lu Qiaoling, who was laughing and talking in the living room, and pouted: "Eldest sister-in-law, you are just biased."
Song's eldest daughter-in-law frowned; people with bad mouths really couldn't hold it in for a few minutes.
How old was she; they weren't children anymore.
Besides, she was just a sister-in-law, not her own child; even her own children didn't listen sometimes.
How was she supposed to manage or teach her?
So Song's eldest daughter-in-law also said with a smile: "You think I'm biased? Alright, you go to the living room and talk to them, and let Qiaoling come over to help me cook.
Go on, why don't you go?
What's the meaning of this?
Are you just saying it with your mouth, or do you want me to call her?
If you don't want to do it, you can leave too; I can handle the kitchen by myself."
Song's second daughter-in-law was stunned for a moment; she thought her eldest sister-in-law would be as easy to talk to as before, and she would just mutter a few words and that would be it.
She didn't expect her eldest sister-in-law to speak so sarcastically.
For a moment, she stood there stunned, holding vegetable leaves, and only after a long time said: "She's here for the first time, so I'm embarrassed to call her to the kitchen to cook; eldest sister-in-law, you really know how to make things difficult for people."
Song's eldest daughter-in-law automatically ignored the second half of her sentence and said directly: "You also know that she's here for the first time."
Song's second daughter-in-law didn't say anything.
Song's eldest daughter-in-law didn't continue to say anything.
This sister-in-law of hers just had a bad mouth; to say she had bad intentions, she really didn't. Many times she loved to be lazy, and if she did some work, she would complain while doing it, belonging to the type of person who works hard but gets no thanks—truly indescribable.
Lu Qiaoling, sitting on the sofa, was smiling, her expression unchanged, but the movement of her hands paused.
Second sister had told her about Song Shaowen's second sister-in-law.
This person was hard to judge; whether at the unit or at family gatherings, she liked to be lazy and shirk work, and doing even a little bit more made her uncomfortable. If she had any opinions in her heart, she couldn't hold them in and would say them out.
Such a person couldn't ruin things, but she was quite annoying.
She had been prepared for this, and besides, she was different from before; her ears were sharp, and sitting on the sofa, she had heard the conversation between the eldest and second sisters-in-law.
But so what?
In any case, you, Song's second sister-in-law, wouldn't dare to come into the room and tell me to do this or that, right?
Lu Qiaoling sat steadily on the sofa, not taking this little interlude to heart at all.
At this time, Song's eldest brother brought up the college entrance exam.
"... It's finally restored; starting this year, this is selecting talent for the country. This opportunity is truly too rare; many people don't know how many years they've waited for it. I remember Qiaoling also got a high school diploma; I entrusted someone to get a set of textbooks, so take some time to review. Even if you don't take the exam, it only has benefits and no harm for yourself."
There were simply no review materials on the market.
Even the various textbooks and review materials at the scrap collection station had been bought out.
Lu Qiao had long since gotten a set of review materials for those in the family who needed to take the exam.
And even if she didn't open her mouth, many people would take the initiative to send her review materials.
Qin Hengzhi didn't need to take the exam; he had graduated from a military academy, but Old Master Qin in Beidu still mailed a few sets of review materials.
There were quite a few young people in the food factory and the industrial products factory preparing to take the college entrance exam.
Lu Qiao let Lu Qiaoling count the young workers who wanted to take the exam and let them leave work two hours early every day to go back and review their lessons.
Then the night school here invited three more teachers.
The night school that Lu Qiao had organized and built had never lacked young workers for tutoring, and now that it was said the college entrance exam was restored, even more people came to study here; not only was the classroom full, but even the hallway was full of people, and those without seats brought their own small stools.
This competition was also quite fierce.
But it had to be said that the college entrance exam was the fairest competition in this world.
Lu Qiaoling had a bottom line in her heart regarding the exam.
Because she had such an amazing second sister.
She first thanked Song's eldest brother, looked at Song Shaowen, and said with a smile: "Shaowen, I haven't had time to tell you yet; I'm preparing to take the exam, and my second sister has already prepared the review materials for me."
Song's eldest brother breathed a sigh of relief and was also reassured.
The future era would be an era of scientific knowledge.
Not studying would lead to no way out.
Song's second sister-in-law, who was distracted, walked out of the kitchen quickly, widened her eyes, and looked at Lu Qiaoling: "You want to take the college entrance exam? If you get in, what will you and Shaowen do? If you go to university, will you still get married??"
Before Lu Qiaoling could speak, Song's eldest sister-in-law also hurried out, glared at her, and said: "If you don't understand the situation, don't talk nonsense; widen your eyes and look carefully at those relaxed conditions..."
Song's second sister-in-law rolled her eyes and said casually: "Eldest brother, I also want to take the exam; can you give me a set of review materials?"
Song's second brother over there couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Song's eldest brother patted the stack of books on the table and said very generously: "It's truly great that you can be so proactive in seeking progress. Originally, this was prepared for Qiaoling, but since Factory Director Lu has already prepared them, this set of idle materials is just right for you. From now on, study hard, and the family will definitely support you."
Then he looked at Song's second brother: "Old Second, from now on, you take over all the housework and let your wife study with peace of mind."
Song's second brother didn't know what kind of character his wife had.
Holding back his laughter, he solemnly guaranteed to his eldest brother: "Eldest brother, don't worry, I'm not that kind of ignorant person. As long as my wife is diligent and wants to take the college entrance exam, I guarantee 100% support for her."
Lu Qiaoling glanced at Song's second sister-in-law.
Second sister had told her about Song's second sister-in-law; although she graduated from junior high, it was purely luck that she muddled through, and she was the person who hated studying the most.
As soon as she saw a book, her head would ache.
Her daughter was in elementary school, and Song's second brother was the one who tutored her homework; she had always stayed as far away as possible.
Because she couldn't even solve elementary school word problems.
Sure enough, Song's second sister-in-law's expression changed immediately; she had just been saying it casually—so many books, let her study? Forget it!
Song's second sister-in-law hurriedly said: "I was just joking just now; how could you take it seriously? Oh my, I have to go pick vegetables, I won't talk to you anymore."
Then she hurriedly dived into the kitchen.
Although she wasn't very willing to do work, compared to studying, she still preferred doing work.
Song's eldest sister-in-law looked at her sister-in-law with a smile that wasn't a smile, didn't pay attention to her, but asked Lu Qiaoling: "Then which school do you plan to apply to?"
It was a pity that Qiaoling hadn't worked for five years; if she had worked for five years, no matter which school she got into, she could go to school with a salary.
And now there were also scholarships.
Speaking of which, the university students who had just resumed exams were truly happy.
Not only was there no tuition, but they were also given living expenses—how good that was. ===== CHAPTER 678 =====
