70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 249: The News of the College Entrance Exam

Xu Mumu’s notes sold extremely well. Huo Qingze came to find Xu Mumu once and mentioned the sales here.

Hearing what Huo Qingze said, Xu Mumu once again felt the benefits of having connections. Huo Qingze had directly preempted the markets of several nearby provinces, and sales were very good.

The main reason was that at this time, many people couldn’t buy textbooks. Xu Mumu’s notes had summaries of various knowledge points and explanations of typical question types, which were very useful.

It was also the first time someone had sold study materials like this, so naturally, the market was good.

Although the news of the restoration of the college entrance examination had not been formally announced yet, people in the brigade, especially those who had studied and the educated youth, had started reviewing. Since there was such a big commotion this time, it’s very likely that the college entrance exam would be reinstated. Opportunities favor those who are prepared. If you review a lot now, when the college entrance exam comes, maybe what you’ve reviewed will appear on the exam.

When arriving at the shoe factory, Du Yu was already waiting here early.

"Mumu, is the college entrance exam really coming back?" Du Yu still felt a bit unreal. Ever since the rumors started, Du Zhen and Qin Jie had confined Du Yu at home to study seriously.

"I think so." Xu Mumu said with a smile, "By the way, how’s your study going?"

"Not bad, my head is now full of various formulas and some messy stuff, it’s giving me a headache," Du Yu said with a bitter face. Actually, they were quite lucky. They had just graduated, and Du Yu’s grades were still good, so it’s not like they could forget everything immediately.

Compared to other educated youth or those who graduated from high school several years ago, they had quite an advantage.

"Hang in there." Xu Mumu patted Du Yu on the shoulder, walked into the office, and looked at her notes left there.

"Mumu, I’ll bring my books here to study. I don’t want to study alone. Watching you study so diligently, it really motivates me." Du Yu looked at Xu Mumu, and his eyes lit up. Every time he studied with Xu Mumu, he felt particularly motivated and could ask Xu Mumu about things he didn’t understand.

"Then you should go ask your mom if she allows you to come." Xu Mumu said calmly, not minding whether Du Yu came or not.

"I’ll go find her now." Du Yu immediately turned and left.

"Mumu, you and Du Yu have such a good relationship." Zhao Meili looked at Xu Mumu enviously and winked at her. Du Yu would often come to find Xu Mumu, and they speculated that Du Yu might have feelings for Xu Mumu.

"It’s all right, Zhao, I have a partner." Xu Mumu shrugged and explained. She had heard them discussing her and Du Yu several times.

"You have a partner? From the factory?" Zhao Meili was taken aback, then looked at Xu Mumu with gossiping eyes.

They were quite envious of Xu Mumu. She was capable, did her work quickly and well every time, and now that the news about the college entrance exam was out, it was said that Xu Mumu had excellent grades and might pass the exam to become completely different from them.

They were even speculating on when Xu Mumu would resign, as she was just a temporary worker and hadn’t been made permanent yet. Resigning wouldn’t affect much.

However, if Xu Mumu resigned, their work would increase a bit.

Not long after, Du Yu returned with his books.

Qin Jie came along too. She looked at Xu Mumu, "Mumu, for the next few days, hand over your work to Zhao to handle. You concentrate on tutoring Du Yu, and I’ll take care of your salary."

"Sure." Xu Mumu didn’t refuse. The work wasn’t something only she could do. Tutoring Du Yu allowed her to review too, which was quite good.

Moreover, she was indeed considering resigning. Staying there was a waste of study time.

The two of them started reading in the office, and Xu Mumu was a relatively fast reader.

As they read together, they didn’t find it noisy. Du Yu would actively ask Xu Mumu about things he didn’t understand instead of thinking alone slowly.

Xu Mumu didn’t mind and even marked key points for Du Yu.

Seeing both of them studying so earnestly, Qin Jie was very pleased. She only had one son, Du Yu. Now that the college entrance exam was imminent, she naturally hoped Du Yu could do well. Every parent wants their child to succeed.

The days of revising always flew by, and soon it was October.

On October 21st, major media outlets announced the restoration of the college entrance examination and disclosed that this year’s exam would be conducted nationwide in a month.

A bit more than a month’s revision time was seriously too short. There wasn’t much to revise. Luckily, the news had leaked out early. Especially here in the provincial capital, materials had been available for a while.

Reading the newspaper with large print about the college entrance exam restoration, Xu Mumu felt her heart surge with excitement.

"Only a little over a month to review." Du Yu looked at the newspaper with a headache, feeling even more urgency.

This first year of the college entrance exam restoration had no restrictions on age, background, marriage, etc., which was good news for everyone.

"You’ve been reviewing for so long and are a fresh graduate. What are you worried about?" Xu Mumu said with a smile. From the review during this period, she could tell Du Yu was very serious, and his foundational knowledge had become more solid.

Xu Mumu was quite confident in Du Yu taking the college entrance exam. Whether he could reach the top line depended on his own abilities.

After discussing resignation with Qin Jie, Qin Jie didn’t make things difficult and quickly processed the paperwork for Xu Mumu, also giving her some extra wages.

Grabbing her salary, Xu Mumu happily put it away. Now she had some money on hand. She wanted to buy a house.

Huo Qingze had expanded the notes business extensively, surely earning a significant amount. The thought of soon receiving a substantial amount of money thrilled Xu Mumu.

Returning to the brigade, Xu Mumu immediately went to find Yin Yang.

"Mumu, are you hot?" Yin Yang waved a palm fan for Xu Mumu.

"Not hot. Have you prepared your stuff? Let’s go register." Xu Mumu said excitedly.

"All ready long ago." Yin Yang chuckled lightly.

When the newspaper released this news, people at the educated youth point had all gone to register, even Huo Qingze went early. He waited here for Xu Mumu, ready to go together.

There were many people registering in the brigade. When Xu Mumu and the others arrived, quite a few were still waiting to register.

In the crowd, Xu Mumu noticed Xu Xue waiting, saw her confident demeanor, and smiled faintly, not paying further attention, but starting a conversation with Yin Yang.

Most of those waiting here were educated youth, and quite a few were already married. Naturally, they all didn’t want to miss this opportunity to return to the city. However one tries, even getting into a junior college would do.
