Back to 1980: Please Love Me Again

Chapter 65 Central Institute of Finance and Economics
Zhao Wenqiu finally stole 100 yuan from Zhao Wenmu.

70 is the repaid salary, and 30 is the compensation.

It is used to compensate Zhao Wenmu for hurting her young heart.

She was very happy when she left, and it's been a long time since she felt the feeling of letting the third brother suffer!

so happy.

As the days passed, each day of the Zhao family was dull and fulfilling, and the crayfish stalls in the convenience market had entered a very stable state.

About 400 catties of crayfish and crabs are consumed a day, plus more than 100 catties of side dishes.

Zhao Wenlin's peaches were all sold out, and more than half of them were sold at the crayfish stall.

Much higher than the price at the farmer's market.

Even so, the average is only 6 cents, a total of more than 2000 catties, and the income is less than 130 yuan.

In the past, the annual income of Zhao Wenlin's family was only so much, which was considered a very good year.

Now, it's just six and a half days' wages for the couple.

Gradually a smile appeared on Zhao Wenjun's face. The younger brother paid her salary, and she saved most of it, and had money to buy some things for the family.

The people in the village are very kind, and no one talks behind their backs.

Everyone knows who is the parent of food and clothing, but no one dares to agree with anyone who dares to arrange Zhao Wenjun.

Zhao Xin also lived in Shanqian Village. The Zhao family regarded her as a relative. She was obviously an urban girl who had never been in the countryside and was very curious about everything in the village.

Her memory never showed signs of recovery.

Zhao Wenmu did the same thing, and felt that she had to go to night school with Zhao Jing, so as not to delay her studies.

So Zhao Jing and Zhao Xin prepared for the exam together, and they complemented each other.

Zhao Wenmu also noticed that this girl had either graduated from high school, or had actually gone to college.

Loss of memory does not affect the mastery of knowledge.

It shouldn't be difficult to get into night school.

Zhao Jing, Zhao Xin, and Zhao Wenqiu, three people who have no blood relationship, seem to be sisters, and get along very well.

In mid-August, the commune's postman and a commune cadre suddenly appeared in Shanqian Village.

Then, under the leadership of Zhao Xuelei, they came to the old house of the Zhao family.

"Comrade Zhao Xuehai, congratulations! We are here to deliver the admission letter to Comrade Zhao Wenqiu!"

The cadres of the commune shook Zhao Xuehai's hand and said happily.

Zheshan Commune has only received three admission notices so far, and only Zhao Wenqiu is from the capital.

There are also the words "Central Institute of Finance and Finance" and "Central Finance and Finance Cadre School" on the envelope!

The words "central government" and "cadres" dazzled this commune cadre's eyes.

What's this?It's too dazzling!

Liu Sufang quickly went to Zhao Wenmu's place and called Zhao Wenqiu back.

I heard that the person who sent the admission letter came. Zhao Wenmu, Zhao Jing, Zhao Xin, Zhao Wenlin, Liu Xiumei, Zhao Wenguang, and Song Yun all rushed over.

Zhao Wenmu also found someone to report to Shandongtou Village, and asked Zhao Wenyan and Zhang Zhenshan to rush over.

Their old Zhao family's ancestors have been muddy for generations.

Zhao Wenqiu is the number one scholar!

It has to be celebrated.

In front of the whole family, commune cadres, and the postman, Zhao Wenqiu opened the envelope.

She looked very casual, as if this was an ordinary thing, but the light in her eyes still clearly showed that she was very excited.

After all, she was just a little girl.

In the face of major events that can change your life, it is impossible not to be excited!
When the envelope was opened, there were only a few yellowed papers inside.

One of them reads:

Freshman Admission Notice Caizhaozi No. 1980046

Zheshan Middle School, Pingyang County, Qilu Province, (Zhao Wenqiu) You have been admitted as a student majoring in public finance in the Finance Department of the Central Institute of Finance and Finance. Please report to the school from September 9th to September 17th according to the requirements on the admission notice. Go through the admission process.

Central Institute of Finance and Economics
1980. 8, 12

The other pieces of paper were the admission notice, letters requesting local governments and railway departments to assist new students in enrolling, etc.

"Third brother, I passed the exam!"

The little girl raised the notice in her hand and shouted happily.

Zhao Xuehai took the notice excitedly, and tremblingly handed it to the commune officials.

The commune cadre took it with both hands, looked at it carefully for a while, and said loudly happily:

"That's right, it's the admission notice from the Central Institute of Finance and Economics!"

Zhao Xuehai's courtyard was full of people inside and outside.

Hearing the word "central", the crowd burst into cheers, and countless envious and even awe-inspiring eyes turned to Zhao Wenqiu, a little girl under 18 years old.

How do the simple villagers know that this "central" is not that "central", they only know that this word is infinitely lofty.

"Little sister, congratulations!"

The faces of the Zhao family were filled with sincere joy.

Zhao Wenqiu never said what school she applied for. Zhao Wenmu thought that she applied to a certain southern industrial university just like in her previous life.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the capital, and it was the Central Institute of Finance and Economics.

One of the eight major financial institutions in New China, known as the "Finance Whampoa".

In 2020, some people may doubt its status in the arena.

But in the 1980 years from 2010 to 30, absolutely no one dared to question it.

This is definitely the cradle of China's financial and financial cadres!

It's clearly written in the family's name!
In her previous life, Zhao Wenyan wanted Zhang Yuanming to study here, so Zhao Wenmu made a special investigation and knew a lot about this school.

It is a good thing that Zhao Wenqiu can go to the capital to study and enter here!
What he didn't know was that Zhao Wenqiu was actually not interested in machinery or industry, but she preferred finance and economics.

Thinking about the achievements of this girl in her previous life, Zhao Wenmu understood.

In this life, Zhao Wenqiu can choose his favorite major.

that's nice!

The sound of crackling soon resounded everywhere in Shanqian Village, and every household took out firecrackers that were not used up during the Chinese New Year to celebrate this joyful moment.

In any case, there is a college student in the village, and everyone is proud of it.

The Zhao family was very happy, and immediately left the commune cadres and the postman to have a happy meal together.

Not only that, Zhao Xuehai and his wife also decided to hold a grand banquet two days later, and entertain the whole village.

That night, the Zhao family happily went to various households in the village to send invitations, which was actually a verbal announcement.

"Uncle Chen, I will invite you to dinner at my house the day after tomorrow, remember to come!"

"Okay!" Uncle Chen turned his head to catch some big carp.

"Er Niu's mother, tell your guy, remember to come to my house for dinner the day after tomorrow."

"Uncle Song, tell your family that you will come the day after tomorrow!"

……

Naturally, the villagers would not miss this opportunity to be happy.

Old Zhao's family has really changed their fortunes, and they don't know how prosperous they will be in the future!
The production team of Shanqian Village held a meeting that night and decided to reward Zhao Wenqiu with 50 yuan for a fat pig.

Early the next morning, Zhao Wenqiu happily went to take the pig home.

In the afternoon, the pigs were slaughtered.

Because it is a pig rewarded by the production team, it is intended to be used for the next day's running table, so there is no need to apply to the production team for killing pigs.

Otherwise, you can't kill pigs casually, and you have to pay some money to the team.

Butchering pigs is a technical job. There are only one or two pig butchers in the village who can kill pigs. Only they can kill pigs, and only they have the tools for killing pigs, such as pig knives and tappets (to loosen the pig’s skin, for blowing air), plane (for scraping pig hair), bone chopping knife, etc.

Otherwise, if the pig is not killed, it may run away, and it will be funny for the whole family to run around chasing the pig.

Pig killing is a lively and festive event, surrounded by a group of children.

The three brothers Zhao Wenmu grabbed the pig desperately. One pulled the ear, the other dragged the pig's tail, and the other held down the leg, and pressed it hard against the pig slaughtering stool.

The butcher's stool is a wooden couch stool similar to a shoe in front of the bed, wider and shorter than ordinary benches, and the butcher puts a basin under the pig's head to catch the pig's blood.

Then he swiftly took out the long and narrow butcher's knife, and the children screamed in fright and hid behind the door in the house.

The three sisters Zhao Wenqiu, Zhao Xin, and Zhao Jing were also watching from the side, but now they also turned pale and hid away.

After a few howls, everything returned to calm.

When the people who were scared away reappeared, the pig had been hung up, its body was white and clean, its hair had been cleaned, and its blood was taken away for disposal.

Pig blood is a good thing. It can be used for stir-frying, making blood sausage and blood jelly. In winter, Qilu people like a bowl of hot pig blood powder skin soup the most.

The white, pink and tender white-striped pigs hung there, and the pig butcher took the boning knife and began to cut and process them.

Just like paoding butchers deboning cattle, professional butchers have a sense of beauty when deboning. The smoothness and naturalness are amazing.

On the morning of the third day, the whole village had a banquet to eat pig-killing dishes.

When the villagers came to the banquet, they would more or less bring some gift money. In name, it was to celebrate Zhao Wenqiu's admission to university, but in fact it was to help her pay for her tuition.

In this day and age, the tuition fees of many rural college students are actually collected by the whole village.

The Zhao family is not short of money now, so naturally they are not worried about tuition fees.

But the tradition of helping each other will always be there.

Of course, not only people from Shanqian Village came, but Zhao Wenqiu's uncle, second uncle, and three aunts' whole family from Liu Sufang's side also came with their families.

There are Zheng Guangming, Zheng Meiyun brothers and sisters, Li Guofu, Wang Youming's master and apprentice, Yang Yuping and Pang Qingyun also asked Zheng Guangming to send gifts.

The Zhao family carefully registered the gift money of each household, and these favors will all be returned in the future.

Everyone also brought some millet and eggs, and several hunters including Uncle Chen and Uncle Song also brought a lot of big carp and pheasants.

Zhao Wenmu set up a few large pots in an open space, and cooked pot after pot of crayfish, spicy crab, and big fish stewed in an iron pot with his little apprentices Gangzi and Zhao Wenyuan.
The open-air flowing water mat needs this kind of fireworks.

Even the protagonist Zhao Wenqiu couldn't help but stir up a pot.

In the end, Zhao Wenyan forcibly dragged her away.

Zhao Wenqiu is not only the first college student in the old Zhao family, but also the first college student in Shanqian Village. With the development and prosperity of Shanqian Village, this honor has always been engraved in the history of the village.

Finally, according to the statistics of gift money, I received 97 yuan and 6 cents.

Of course, the gifts from the Zhao brothers and sisters were not included.

This figure was unimaginable in the past. Almost every family in Shanqian village paid 1 yuan.

Brothers Zhao Wenlin, Zhao Wenguang, and Zhao Wenmu took 100 yuan each, and Zhao Wenyan, Zhao Wenjun, Zhao Jing, and Zhao Xin 50 yuan each.

Zhao Wenqiu held the 597 yuan 6 and couldn't close his mouth with a smile.

Not to mention the tuition fee, the four-year university tuition fee and living expenses will not cost so much!
