Ephemeral clouds and works

Chapter 339: Sharing News

    

if they want to remedy it, it's too late.So when Wan Liang received a call from the lion, he didn't hesitate. He dressed up and went straight to Yun Yi's high-end residential area.After they met, Lia...In fact, Chen Jia Shu had to leave because his provisions were not enough to last until spring. He hinted at Wu Lian Yi several times, but she never took the initiative to help him. He was already a bit resentful of Lian Yi.

After all, before this, he didn't need to speak. As long as he showed a hesitant look, Wu Lianyi would take the initiative to ask him. When she learned that he was hungry, she would be heartbroken and take out her own things to help him. Milk powder, canned food, snacks, and candy always kept his pockets full. Now, it's like he hasn't seen her at all.

He didn't dare to bring up the topic of borrowing food on his own, after all, Pan Nuannuan had previously retaliated against Wu Lianyi because she couldn't borrow food.

Since the ripples healed, he made several advances, but she ignored them all. Moreover, the remaining three female educated youths always acted together, leaving him without a chance to be alone with Wu Lianyi, let alone confess his feelings.

In order to avoid hunger, he could only respond to the call of the village head and go hunting with experienced hunters from the village. Since this trip would last three days and three nights, everyone brought their own food supplies and asked the female educated youth to prepare some portable dry rations.

Wang Xiufen and the others discussed it and decided to support the male educated youths with some food, and then let them exchange it for game at a later time. Everyone agreed.

Zhao Jingcheng was part of the team this time. His family had been hunters for three generations, and after three years of natural disasters, he was the only one left. It was his hunting skills that kept him from starving to death.

Last time he suffered such a bad defeat because he had a cold and flu. He stayed in the cold house for three days, and finally couldn't stand being hungry anymore, so he went up the mountain to catch rabbits. As a result, he was beaten by Ripples.

Liàn Yī thinks that Zhào Jǐngchéng has a much higher chance of hitting the prey than anyone else, so she adopts the strategy of casting a wide net and prepares some dried food cakes for him as an advance payment for the prey.

The entire Red Flag Commune was bustling with activity. Even the men who usually gathered under the elm tree to boast were nowhere to be seen. Three days later, under the guidance of an old hunter, over eighty able-bodied men from the village, armed with hunting gear, set off in a grand procession towards the mountains.

The young intellectuals fell silent upon being told. Only three female young intellectuals were present, and they weren't willing to go out either. They stayed inside the house sewing clothes.

"Ripples, I've noticed that Chan Ka-shui has been looking for opportunities to talk to you lately. Does he have a crush on you"

Zheng Xin asked boldly.

He was interested in my food.

Ripple gave them a helpless look and told them directly.

"He also borrowed food from you"

Wang Xiufen wasn't surprised at all. After all, Wu Lianyi had always been the one to take the initiative before. Ever since experiencing the hurt from Pan Nuan Nuan, she had become more careful with her own finances.

He didn't say it outright, but he hinted at it. I didn't pick up on it.

"Ripple, don't blame me for being straightforward. You used to be the one who proactively lent him money. Why are you ignoring him now"

Zheng Xin pricked her hair a couple of times with a hairpin.

"Before, I thought he was special to me. I couldn't bear to see him hungry, so I helped him. But ever since the Pan Nuannuan incident happened, I've seen through him."

Ripples said, not without disappointment.

“I was injured and bleeding, all the fellow知青

gave me some food. Two eggs, a pack of noodles, and you two even managed to find some red dates from somewhere. It's all just to help me recover and replenish my blood. I, Wu Lianyi, will remember this kindness.”

But Chen Jia Shu, who has helped me the most in my daily life, gave me a handful of yellow wildflowers. He said it was to cheer me up, claiming I couldn't eat or drink them. I'm stupid if I don't see through his superficiality. He just wants favors from me without wanting to give anything back.

At this moment, sarcasm and disdain were evident on Lian Yi's face.

Wang Xiufen and Zheng Xin exchanged glances. In fact, when they first saw Chen JiaShu holding that flower, they also thought it was a bit tacky. However, since Lian Yi had been injured and was lying in bed at the time, they didn't say anything, so as not to make it seem like they were stirring up trouble. Even close friends need some boundaries.

"It's fine! It's fine! You noticed it too, I wanted to give him a couple of digs back then, but Sister Wang pulled me back."

Zheng Xiru said, relieved.

It seems she still cares about Ripple.

"You are bystanders, clear observers. It's my fault for being in the middle of it all. You're afraid to say anything that might upset me, so you hesitate to remind me. I understand. In the future, if I make mistakes again, you two remember to remind me."

Ripples said with a smile.

"Okay, we'll keep that in mind, you and I."

Both of them laughed heartily and agreed.

Immediately, ripples subdued the sound and said to Wang Xiufen and Zheng Xin:

"Xiufen Jie, Zheng Xin, after I recovered from my injuries, I went to the town to call my family. My family told me some good news."

"What good news"

"You two are involved too!"

The ripples sold a trick.

Her words immediately caught both of their attention. They stopped what they were doing and curiously looked towards Ripple.

“The resumption of the college entrance exam has already been studied by relevant authorities. It will be restored soon.”

"Really"

"You can't coax people with ripples!"

Wang Xiufen and Zheng Xin both wore expressions of mingled surprise and delight.

Of course it’s true, my mom said it happened just one or two years ago. She’s already found my high school textbooks and exercises and will send them to me next time.

You two should contact your families immediately and have your textbooks sent over. We are about to begin reviewing now, otherwise, once the news spreads, it will be difficult to find the textbooks, not to mention that we have limited time for review.

Ripple generously offered her advice.

"This is easy to handle. My siblings at home have high school textbooks, I'll just ask them to send me a set."

Zheng Xin is a doer. She has already taken out the letter paper and was about to write back when she was stopped by Lianyi.

On the other side, Wang Xiufen was more composed. She was the first to speak:

Ripples, can even peasants like us who went to the countryside be eligible for the exam Are there any age restrictions

"That's our legitimate way out. Because the college entrance exam has been suspended for so many years, after its resumption this time, there is no age limit for enrollment, everything depends on your grades."

That's great!

Wang Xiufen received the prompt, and then she looked at the pressed letter paper, waiting for Lian Ri to explain.

"This message hasn't been released to the public yet. If it gets out through your letter, and you're caught leaking information, what will happen Won't that implicate my mother"

Ripple said helplessly.

"Ripple's right, we can't burden Auntie."

"So, it's best to give them a call and say that the village is preparing to have us educated youth teach the children how to read during the winter when everyone is free. We need textbooks, so you could send all of them from elementary school to high school. We can start reviewing from scratch, which will lay a solid foundation. What do you think"

"Ripple thought it through very carefully. We just need to get a complete set of books for the three of us, and we'll take turns reading them."

Wang Xiufen's eyes were shining.

After discussing everything, the three men boarded a bullock cart heading out of the village and to town the next day. They went to a public phone booth and made calls, sticking to their pre-arranged story and not raising any suspicions. Then, they happily returned to Hongqi Commune.

Three days later, the hunting squad finally returned from the mountains. However, the atmosphere was strange. They carried their prey straight to Captain Zhao's house.f your decision.After speaking, Lian Ri chuckled, revealing her eight white teeth, along with a murderous aura.She is not the original her, she is Ripple Ancestor, the ceiling of combat power in Kunlu...
