Chapter 35
Because it was the first college entrance exam, everyone who had to take the exam took it very seriously. The other villagers also regarded this matter as a major event.
There were only 10 people in the village taking the exam. Eight of them were nervous wrecks, restless at home all day, while the other two, Su Fei and Liang Hao, did whatever they pleased at home, busy as bees.
The villagers saw that Su Fei and Liang Hao were calm and composed, doing what needed to be done without showing off.
They didn’t pretend to be burdened with worries all day, so the others, especially the three purely rural children in the village, were criticized for being lazy. Their parents took Liang Hao and Su Fei as examples.
Su Fei and Liang Hao’s success attracted another wave of envy, but they didn’t care. Both of them were busy as bees.
“…Buy a TV?…Radio…Sewing machine…” Su Fei kept muttering to herself about what she wanted to buy.
Suddenly, she thought of the one thing she couldn’t stand: the toilet issue.
“I want to buy a flush toilet!!” Su Fei said excitedly. This was something she couldn’t tolerate.
Liang Hao sighed and closed her mouth helplessly. “You’re probably going to college soon. If you get everything so well-equipped, do you still want to go to school?”
Then she kept complaining in her heart about how Su Fei had managed to live until now, living such a bourgeois life.
Amidst the bustling wedding preparations, Su Fei and Liang Hao took care of external matters. Ningning and some boys prepared other things, like making new bedding…
“Wow, is this a color TV? It’s so nice to watch TV dramas!” A group of men and boys gathered at Ningning’s house, some came to help with chores, and some came to see the excitement after Su Fei exchanged for a TV.
“It’s really interesting, Sun Wukong is so powerful!” The children were especially noisy, and this TV was a big deal in the village.
From morning till night, the TV was on all day. Whether there were programs or not, these children and adults stayed in Ningning’s house.
Ningning and Su Fei never drove anyone away from watching TV at home. It made the atmosphere at home particularly lively.
The children and adults were also very willing to come to Ningning’s house to play. The spacious house, superb decoration, warm atmosphere, and especially the attractive TV, made these children and adults reluctant to leave.
Soon, the day of Su Fei and Ningning’s wedding arrived. The villagers had been watching TV at Su Fei’s house all along and had never asked for electricity bills. So the villagers were super enthusiastic about Su Fei and Ningning’s wedding.
Finally, on the day of the wedding, Su Fei and Liang Hao, accompanied by a group of unmarried young women, circled the village to welcome the groom.
Some young men also came to block the door, insisting on receiving red envelopes before letting them in, making the atmosphere of the wedding very lively.
“Hurry up and give them all the red envelopes!” Su Fei commanded, holding the red envelopes, and began to distribute them to these young men.
“No way, we still need more red envelopes!” These boys had never encountered such a situation where they were asked for red envelopes, but seeing the lively atmosphere and the early hour, they kept clamoring for big red envelopes.
“Quick, someone come and take them away!” Su Fei saw that giving money didn’t make them grow up, so she had to resort to non-violent non-cooperation.
“Great!” A group of unmarried young women who came later rubbed their hands in excitement and rushed towards the group of young men. Scared, these young men quickly ran away.
Su Fei and Liang Hao went straight into the house and began to escort Ningning out. Ningning in the house was already prepared. As soon as he heard Su Fei speak, he hurriedly followed them out.
“Ningning, I’m here to pick you up! Let’s go together,” Su Fei said excitedly, holding a bouquet of fake flowers in her hand.
Ningning took the flowers calmly and said, “Let’s go then.”
A group of people followed behind them, chatting and laughing, circling around the village and returning to their house.
Basically, there weren’t many wedding rituals in the village, so everyone started the wedding banquet. It started before noon, and most of the people inside followed the custom of giving gifts. Based on the value of the gifts, the members of the Red and White Affairs Committee arranged their seats accordingly.
According to the distance, the seats could be divided into three categories. That is to say, the more valuable the gift money, the better the wedding feast.
The best wedding feast, of course, was the one for the newlyweds. This table mainly belonged to the parents and relatives who followed them. Since Su Fei and Ningning had fewer relatives, they chose the ones they were closer to, to sit at this feast.
The Ning family sent a gift and a whole family came to the wedding banquet. The members of the Red and White Affairs Committee thought Ning Daxiong was really stingy.
Although conditions are better now, opportunities to eat meat are still relatively rare. So when they saw meat and vegetables at the wedding feast, basically every feast had them. It can be said that the only sound heard throughout the banquet was the sound of everyone eating.
Just as everyone was enjoying the food, Village Chief Ning came over on his bicycle, looking especially excited.
“Come and see, someone in our village has been admitted to university! Su Fei got into Beijing University! It’s the first one in the whole city!” Village Chief Ning started talking as soon as he entered the village.
People who were enjoying the wedding banquet heard the news and started discussing it.
“Ningning has really hit the jackpot! He’s going to become a city dweller, and he’s going to Beijing!” People exclaimed while continuing to eat.
Su Fei was also surprised to hear this news because she had never achieved such good results in her past life. She had only attended an ordinary undergraduate school. She never expected to have the chance to enter a nationally renowned university this time.
“Let’s drink to that! Today is truly a double blessing. Everyone, enjoy the food and drink. If it’s not enough, we’ll have the kitchen add more!” Su Fei said excitedly.
“Let’s consider this meal as a celebration for Su Fei’s academic success. We’ll continue eating tonight.”
Su Fei saw Village Chief Ning coming over and quickly invited her to sit in the main seat.
Ningning and Su Fei went to toast together, of course, the alcohol they drank was diluted with water.
The young people and other exam takers were anxious to know their results. But unexpectedly, the Village Chief started eating, after all, she had been hungry all day.
In the lively afternoon, after packing up, it was already late evening. Everyone had a keen sense and quickly left. After all, a moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold, and no one would want to delay the couple’s good time.
“Let’s talk about it tomorrow if there’s anything,” Su Fei and Ningning quickly closed the door.
The two glanced at each other, then blushed and turned their heads away. Their hearts were pounding!
In the end, Su Fei was the first to hold Ningning’s hand, although she had no experience, she had seen pigs run.
