After more than a month of intense preparation for the exam, in November, He Xiaoyun participated in the first round of the college entrance examination. In this exam, some candidates were selected to participate in the formal college entrance examination in December.
After the exam, Xiaoyun had a certain degree of assurance about her situation.
Resuming the college entrance examination in the first year, neither the number of questions nor the degree of difficulty can be compared with the later college entrance examinations. Perhaps the current students do not find it easy, because their teachers hardly teach this knowledge in their middle school classes. But for He Xiaoyun, it's very advantageous.
Although nearly ten years have passed since her high school days, she still has a foundation. Coupled with her two years of self-study, He Xiaoyun estimated that she can enter a university. It only depends on her rank and grades whether she can enter a good college.
Thinking of this, Xiaoyun was relaxed. After all, she didn't have any grand ambitions. For example, she just needs to be admitted to the country's best university. For her, it was the unattainable existence in her past.
This is a deep mark left on her in her previous life. At that time, because of the economic poverty and the backward education, their entire county couldn't produce a student who could be admitted to the Capital University. He Xiaoyun's grades at that time weren't top-notch, so she didn't dare hope to pass.
This time, her goal is to be admitted to Capital University. After all, Wei Jianwei and her child are here, and she doesn't want to attend too far.
After leaving the examination room, Wei Jianwei came to take her home. To take care of the examinee's mood, Jianwei dared not ask what happened inside the examination room.
He Xiaoyun saw his hesitation and stopped, and said with a smile: "I feel pretty good, and I should be able to pass the exam."
Wei Jianwei's expression loosened, and a smile appeared in his eyes: "Should we celebrate?"
"It's too early to celebrate," He Xiaoyun laughed, "Let's wait for the results."
Back to the family building, He Xiaoyun went to Xu Lanxiang, "Sister Xu, let's accumulate sauerkraut tomorrow!"
At this time last year, their sauerkraut had already accumulated. This year, for her exams, everything was pushed back. Now, He Xiaoyun finally felt her shoulders lighten up and started to get busy.
Xu Lanxiang watched her expression, hesitated for a moment, and finally did not mention the examination. She just nodded and said: "Okay, Lizhen also said that she'll be doing it too, let's do it tomorrow."
That night, He Xiaoyun ate well and slept soundly. The next day, Wei Jianwei and Wei Yuanhang were sent out and she went next door. Huang Lizhen came earlier than her and was talking to Xu Lanxiang.
"How about your younger sister, did she do well?"
Huang Lizhen shook her head: "I was at my mother's house yesterday, and when I saw her face, she looked sad, and I knew she must have failed the exam. What about Xiaoyun, have you asked her?"
"I don't dare to ask. She came to me before and looked very relaxed. I don't know if she did well in the exam or if she failed it."
"Oh, let's not ask anymore, so we don't put her under psychological pressure. We will know it after a while."
"I think so, too."
As soon as they finished speaking, He Xiaoyun came, and the two stopped talking about that topic. After some time, they stored their winter vegetables away and bought new year goods, and in a blink of an eye, the year was ending.
During this period, He Xiaoyun heard some cynicism about her exam results, but she let it be. For some people, instead of wasting words and arguing with them, it was better to put the facts in front of their faces.
Wei Jianwei joked with her: "Even if there is another person named He Xiaoyun, it is unlikely that her husband is also named Wei Jianwei."
He Xiaoyun calmed down but finally couldn't help it. She jumped and hugged Jianwei's neck and cheered: "I passed! I'm going to be a college student soon!"
Wei Jianwei looked at her with a smile, hugging her with his hands to prevent her from falling down. He Xiaoyun was still happy, holding the man's face in both hands, she solemnly said: "From now on, please call me college student He!"
Before she finished speaking, she couldn't help but laugh, "Hahahaha..."
Fortunately, Wei Yuanhang hasn't finished school yet, otherwise, seeing his mother clinging to his father like a monkey might leave a shadow on his little heart.
He Xiaoyun lowered her head and touched Wei Jianwei's forehead, feeling unprecedented peace and satisfaction in her heart.
The news quickly spread in the family building. Xu Lanxiang and the others came to congratulate He Xiaoyun. He Xiaoyun laughed and responded.
Before her words were finished, there was a lively noise from the corridor, followed by someone knocking on the door.
It turned out that leader Zhang's son, who was in the opposite building, was admitted. His mother and wife were very happy, and she(mother) bought sweets to share in the opposite building.
One of them(Zhang's wife) saw He Xiaoyun at Xu Lanxiang’s house and immediately said to her lover, Leader Zhang, “There's a woman who did good in the examination in this building. Old Zhang, you see, this is Commander Wei’s wife. She got third place in the entire capital. "
When Leader Zhang's heard it, he curiously looked up at He Xiaoyun and praised: "I've heard the name of sister-in-law for a long time ago. You're beautiful and well-cultured, Chief Wei is so blessed!"
"Thank you for the praise." He Xiaoyun smiled shyly.
Another person who came with them said, "I just don’t know what’s going on. The others have already received their admission notice, but Comrade Xiaoyun’s hasn't come yet. Sister-in-law, do you think the leader has forgotten it?"
"How can they forget?" Head Zhang's wife smiled, "Maybe it's just a little bit late, she will definitely receive it soon."
"Could it be that something was wrong? I heard that there were a lot of people in this exam, so many points were wrongly counted. Could it be that Comrade Xiaoyun's score was calculated wrong?" (You're getting slapped on the face biatch)
Another person immediately said: "Knowing that Comrade Xiaoyun did well in the exam, everyone is happy for her, if it's found out that they made a mistake, how hurtful it would be."
He Xiaoyun watched their performance silently, and Xu Lanxiang rolled her eyes when she heard their funny skit, wishing to sweep these people out.
Leader Zhang's wife felt that something was wrong, and was about to say something when the door suddenly slammed open.
Xu Lanxiang’s eldest daughter rushed in from outside, patted a newspaper on the table, and excitedly said: "Mom, look at this! Aunt Xiaoyun is in the newspaper! I met the uncle postman downstairs, and he was about to give Aunt Xioayun her admission. The notice is from Capital University! Aunt Xiaoyun is too good!"
Xu Lanxiang had already known this a step earlier. At this moment, she was very calm, watching the changes in the people's faces' quietly, and she felt pleased.

At a meeting in the Headquarters one day, Wei Jianwei’s leader patted him on the shoulder and said, “Your wife's very good! Old Wei, you have done a good job supporting her, and you're deeds are indispensable!"
Wei Jianwei was a little surprised. Jianwei didn't doubt He Xiaoyun's strength, but he didn't expect that she would do better. The others were even more surprised. Lin Yuefei walked over and punched Wei Jianwei's arm, "Old Wei, your wife is so powerful! You can finally release your bated breath."
Wang Liqiang also said: "Old Wei, you have to treat us!"
The others also ask Wei Jianwei to treat them. They are all envious and sour. This old Wei, he married a beautiful and virtuous wife, but that doesn't matter, what matters is his wife actually became a college student! He doesn't want them to live anymore, right?
At noon, Wei Jianwei returned home and told He Xiaoyun about it. He Xiaoyun couldn't believe it.
"You aren't teasing me, right? With my ability, could I really rank in third place?"
After the exam, He Xiaoyun did feel pretty good and confident about her results. But this is the capital. He Xiaoyun always thought that this place must be full of talents, and there are surely great gods hidden in sight, so how can she squeeze into the top three?!
He Xiaoyun felt that a big pie(opportunity) fell from the sky, and it happened to fall into her arms, smashing her dizzy. She couldn't help but confirm with Wei Jianwei again: "Are you sure your leader is right? There is no other person called He Xiaoyun, right?"

He Xiaoyun lowered her head and touched Wei Jianwei's forehead, feeling unprecedented peace and satisfaction in her heart.
The news quickly spread in the family building. Xu Lanxiang and the others came to congratulate He Xiaoyun. He Xiaoyun laughed and responded.
Now that Xiaoyun knows that her university admission is stable, she only needs to wait for the admission notice afterward. However, before the notice came, they welcomed two unexpected visitors.
There was a man and a woman, the admission teacher from the Capital University and the reporter of the Evening News. He Xiaoyun was not quite sure what they wanted. After having tea, she asked, "What do the two guests want with me?"
The admission teacher is straightforward: "We know Comrade He's grades, and we would like to ask if you have the intention to study in our school."
"But, I didn't report to your school..." He Xiaoyun hesitantly said.
Capital University in Xiaoyun's heart is the flower of Gaoling(unattainable) and her white moonlight(first love), so even if she filled a few schools in the form, she didn't dare to fill it in randomly.
After knowing her grades and results, Xiaoyun regretted it a little, because, with her ranking, she should be able to attend that school.
The admission teacher took a sip of tea and said, "Don't worry about this. As long as you agree, the school can adjust for you."
It's not rare for students with outstanding academic performance to be intercepted by first-class universities.
He Xiaoyun didn't know there were such operations.
After experiencing the treatment of those champions and top students of later generations, who were vying for the treatment of famous universities, He Xiaoyun felt that she had become a sweet pastry(so many people want to bite~), and she couldn't help but feel happy.
So she nodded without thinking about it for too long. After all, Capital University is what she dreams of. People always go to higher places, and Xiaoyun has dreams too!
After the admission problem was solved, the female reporter of the newspaper followed up. She wanted to interview He Xiaoyun and published her story from being a rural woman to a female college student in the newspaper as a typical example of striving to inspire other women.
He Xiaoyun blushed a bit, what ambitions? She actually didn't think about this too much, there was only her obsession to enter Capital University. She felt that there was really nothing to praise her about, let alone give some talk about the value of learning.
He Xiaoyun's refusal became modesty to the other party, and the reporter made her determination firm to report this news even more.
In the end, He Xiaoyun couldn't help but answered some questions, and repeatedly emphasized that most of the results of her exam were because of luck.
He Xiaoyun's performance has made the other two(reporter&teacher) feel better about her. It's rare to see someone who is humble after having such a big achievement.
In the evening, when Wei Jianwei returned home, He Xiaoyun hugged him again and was happy for a long time.

Wei Yuanhang just didn't understand. Going to school is indeed quite interesting. He can play with other children, but why does his mother want to play with others when she is so old?
The little kid thought quietly in his heart, I should go to Rongrong less and spend more time with my mother.
As a result, He Xiaoyun soon discovered that her son had suddenly become clingy.

The little kid thought quietly in his heart, I should go to Rongrong less and spend more time with my mother.
As a result, He Xiaoyun soon discovered that her son had suddenly become clingy.
In the entire military region, He Xiaoyun was not the only one who was admitted to the university. Others received notices before the Chinese New Year. Only hers was late.
He Xiaoyun knew it was because of her rank, but others didn't know it. They only knew that she had not been admitted to any universities.
From the moment Xiaoyun decided to take the college entrance examination, there was some gossip in the family area, and there was no lack of contempt about her participation, until the news that she had taken third place in the exam came, those people(bitches) temporarily shut their mouths.
But with good news(admissions from universities) from other people, there's still no movement with He Xiaoyun, and various rumors have appeared again.
He Xiaoyun went to the water room to fetch water, and she heard people chatting in full swing.
"Didn't you say that she got the third rank? Why are there no universities after her?"
"Who knows? Head Zhang's son of the opposite building received the notice yesterday."
"Up to now, examinees have received what they should have received. Eh, she won't lie about this, right?"
"It's the news that came from the camp. No matter how good the future is for Commander Wei, would the regiment command favor them like this?"
"This is definitely a mistake."(It's not.🙄) The other person firmly said, "I said it earlier, how can a rural woman who hasn't gone to high school take the college exam and ranked third? It must be a mistake from the top, so there's no news afterward."
Xu Lanxiang also heard the wind(rumors) and especially comforted He Xiaoyun: "All they said are big farts. Don't take it to the heart. Maybe your admission notice will be here tomorrow."
He Xiaoyun forgot to talk to Xu Lanxiang about the previous admission teacher's visit. Seeing that she(XL) was so indignant for herself, He Xiaoyun embarrassedly said: "Actually...I'm already admitted to the university I'm striving to. I met the teacher from Capital University two days ago. He came to me..."
"What university? Capital University?!" Xu Lanxiang raised her tone and stared at her. After a long while, she stretched out her finger and poked her(HX) forehead, "Well, well, well, your tone is quite bright!"
He Xiaoyun held her forehead and smiled in kindness.
Xu Lanxiang said in a huff: "I'm almost angered half to death when I heard those people gossip. If it's okay with you, I will spread this good news around. Just don't hide it and let me know."
"I just wanted to surprise Sister Xu." He Xiaoyun quickly explained.
"There's no surprise, but there's a shock." Xu Lanxiang hummed.
He Xiaoyun was at a loss and could only say good things to make up for it. Fortunately, Xu Lanxiang was only annoyed for a while and soon became proud again, "This time, I see what those gossipy women have to say. Just because others have accomplished what they can't, they continue to gossip maliciously? Hmph!"
He Xiaoyun knew it was because of her rank, but others didn't know it. They only knew that she had not been admitted to any universities.

T/N: Finally, a face slapping situation. How nice to see some drama.
