The Tempting Educated Youth Married to a Rough Man
Chapter 329 - 325: Resumption of the College Entrance Examination
The news about the resumption of the national college entrance examination was officially announced three days later.
Bao Wenxuan got the news and was so excited that she almost went crazy.
Holding a newspaper, she sprinted all the way to the Xiao Family’s house. Seeing Wen Ran, she rushed over and hugged her, jumping up and down in joy.
Mrs. Xiao: "!!!"
Stop it!
She’s getting old and really can’t take such shocks, quickly put her good daughter-in-law down.
Mrs. Xiao was so startled she wanted to tear Bao Wenxuan apart.
Oh my, this is really frightening!
Ranran looks like one person, but she’s actually three!
A full three people, with twins in her belly.
Ah, no, she has her beautiful twin grandchildren in there; they absolutely mustn’t get hurt.
However, when Bao Wenxuan gets excited, it’s rather terrifying. At least Mrs. Xiao didn’t dare to physically pull her, fearing it might create a problem from nothing.
Mrs. Xiao raised her hand but didn’t know where to start, so she could only circle around the two, exclaiming long and short sighs.
Until Bao Wenxuan calmed down on her own.
Mrs. Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say something to Bao Wenxuan, but then she saw her suddenly kneel on the ground.
The words at the tip of her tongue were swallowed back.
Forget it, better not to provoke her at this crucial moment.
Bao Wenxuan hugged Wen Ran’s belly, first bawling her eyes out, and after she finished crying, she started kissing Wen Ran’s belly, "Smooch, smooch, I knew you two little darlings are godma’s lucky stars.
Wah wah wah, sweetheart babies, once you’re born, godma promises to give you the best of everything!"
Wen Ran: "..."
She rubbed her forehead.
Well, the good news has indeed arrived, but it seems to have made people happily crazy.
Bao Wenxuan’s symptoms looked like they were getting worse, so Wen Ran decisively raised her hand and gave her a quick hit on the back of the neck.
With that, Bao Wenxuan collapsed.
Wen Ran calmly caught her, held her up, belly sticking out, and gave Bao Wenxuan a princess carry, "Mom, can you move the little blanket from my recliner? I’ll let her lie down for a bit and rest.
She’s just too happy, emotions got the best of her."
"Oh! Okay, okay."
Mrs. Xiao hurriedly arranged the recliner comfortably for Bao Wenxuan, and once she was lying there limply, Mrs. Xiao didn’t look at her anymore.
Instead, she continuously fussed over Wen Ran, "Are you okay?"
Wen Ran calmly replied, "What could happen to me? I’m perfectly fine."
She then patted her belly, smiling sweetly, "The little ones are fine too."
"Goodness, this is beyond terrifying."
Assured that Wen Ran was healthy, Mrs. Xiao wiped her brow, "Alright, you can rest now."
"Mom," Wen Ran spoke softly, "Can you make some mung bean soup? I remember we still have some ice in our cellar, right?
Take them out, let’s have some iced mung bean soup; it’s so hot right now, we need something to beat the heat."
Even though it’s already autumn, outside the weather is still stiflingly hot, making it hard to breathe.
Eating something cold and refreshing makes both the body and mind feel good.
"Sure," Mrs. Xiao replied cheerfully, "I’ll make it for you. Are you still reading? Want me to bring out a small table for you to use for a bit? "
Wen Ran: "... Okay."
The situation has come to this, there’s no hiding from it now.
She has to pick up the books she’s been reading intermittently.
As for Chenxing, she’s already reached the stage of obsessive studying.
If it weren’t for Hongguo and Shen Yueyue dragging her out today to catch small fish and shrimp to feed the chickens.
This girl would still be holding her book, obsessing over it.
Honestly, Li Yang is quite impressive.
With just one sentence, he got Xiao Chenxing to work hard.
Previously, Xiao Chenxing studied with Hongguo, and even though Hongguo gave it her all, Xiao Chenxing was beside her anxiously dawdling.
But even so, the results were good.
At least, what Xiao Chenxing learned at home was several times more than at school.
However, compared to the current state, Wen Ran still feels that the previous dawdling Xiao Chenxing was really frustrating.
The attitude is clearly different.
Bao Wenxuan slept for an hour, and the mung bean soup was still not done stewing when Xiao Chenxing and the others returned.
"Sis!" Xiao Chenxing originally planned to greet them and go back to her room to study.
But, when she saw Bao Wenxuan lying on the recliner, eyes closed, asleep.
Her footsteps momentarily stopped.
She was somewhat unsure, "Sis-in-law, why is Sister Bao sleeping at our house?"
Wen Ran rubbed her belly, calmly closed her book.
She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, oh boy, finally someone came; she finally found a chance to lazily relax.
Turning her head, she spoke earnestly to Xiao Chenxing, "The news about the resumption of the college entrance exam is confirmed to be true.
Your Sister Bao just couldn’t remain calm. So excited about such good news, she went a little crazy.
I saw her heading in a bad direction, about to truly lose it, so I had to knock her out to calm her down."
After hearing this, it took Xiao Chenxing a while to react.
While everyone was still baffled, Wen Ran clenched her fist to cheer on the kids, "So, what lies ahead is an even more difficult battle!"
At that moment, with a loud clatter, the metal basin holding the small fish and shrimps fell to the ground, Hongguo checked again and again in disbelief.
"Sis? Did you just say the college entrance exam is re- restored?"
"Yes!"
"The college entrance exam is restored?!"
"Indeed!"
After confirming multiple times, even as gentle as Wen Ran is, she was a bit fed up.
Faced with Hongguo opening her mouth again to inquire, Wen Ran swiftly grabbed her puckered lips.
Gently, "Alright, alright, little mouth, close up, don’t ask anymore.
It’s really true, the college entrance exam is restored, you have a chance to change your fate.
So, let’s stay quiet, okay?"
Hongguo nodded, then raised her head, a bit dazed, "Sis, but I’m still at the elementary school level."
Wen Ran: "..."
Every day, saying things that make people want to die.
Taking a deep breath, Wen Ran sulked, "Don’t worry, we’ll figure it out.
But I don’t have much network or connections in the county town.
As for education, I guess we’ll have to wait until your brother-in-law comes back, then we’ll sit down and think it through."
We’ll need to carefully sift through Xiao Chenye’s circle of acquaintances.
See if there’s anyone useful inside; if there is, we’ll spend money to get the high school diploma.
Maintaining relationships for so long, it’s time to make them work.
However, it’s no big deal!
Even if it’s a big deal, it’ll be okay, Hongguo’s household registration is tied with mine, so even if she doesn’t go to college, she can still come with me.
