Bai Fumei in the '70s

Chapter 116

On New Year's Eve, the countryside was silent.

There were not many sources of entertainment in the city, and everyone was too poor to afford firecrackers and slept separately after a full New Year's Eve meal.

He Songbai warmed his girlfriend's feet with hot water and washed her feet. He took the water over for her to take off her shoes and soak her feet with satisfaction.

He Songbai asked, "Is it too boring to spend the New Year in the countryside?"

In fact, if it wasn't for the elder sister's accident, this should've been the happiest New Year he ever had. All because this was the first new year he spent with his girlfriend, she was with him in the fire room like a family, this feeling made He Songbai's heart feel hot like an iron.

He greedily enjoyed this kind of warmth, hoping that time would go slower and slower. He had never hoped that he would spend every new year with her in the future.

"I'm used to it, and it's not the first day to come to the country again." Zhao Lanxiang said softly, with inexpressible tenderness in her voice.

He seemed to have endless apologies for her, "This year you will definitely be taught by your uncle and aunt..."

"When are you going?"

Zhao Lanxiang couldn't help thinking when she heard the words, she wanted to wait for Wu Yong's things to come to fruition. Without a day's results, she could not go home with peace of mind. In fact, many things have piled up, and she has no way to weigh, just follow intuition.

For example, she didn't go home during the New Year, nor she opened the all the letters sent to her.

Zhao Lanxiang narrowed her eyes in confusion, and said vaguely, "Well... I don't want to toss about it. I will wait for the spring break to go through the admission procedures. After all, I can go home in February.

He Songbai heard a rapture of joy in his heart. He wanted to say something to his girlfriend, and even wanted to kiss her, but she closed her eyes tiredly.

He leaned over and tucked her in bed, and couldn't get enough of staring at her sleeping quietly.

Finally, he kissed her cool fingers exposed outside the quilt.

Zhao Lanxiang spent five days in the country continuously. On the sixth day the post office opened for business, she rushed early to send a telegram to her parents that she would not go home during the Spring Festival holiday. In addition to mentioning the good news of being admitted to Z, she will return directly to G City when the school starts in February.

Zhao Yongqing and Feng Lian were very happy. This news made up for the regret that they did not see their daughter in the New Year.

Feng Lian said with a smile: "Niu Niu really grew up. Last year she told me to go to the countryside, I wish I could break her leg."

"It's all right now, she took the exam back to us by herself, and I feel relieved now."

"Let's celebrate when she comes back." Zhao Yongqing made a decision.

Busy and plain days always pass quickly. On the sixth day of the Chinese New Year, Zhao Lanxiang took He Songbai and rummage through the post office to find the admission notice. This time they looked for the letter carefully.

Even with the postman who sent letters in this area, she repeatedly searched for it several times, but she did not find the admission notice of He Songbai.

Zhao Lanxiang asked the post office, "Did you lose any letters?"

The staff at the post office checked nervously and replied: "No, there are only nine admission notices in Qinghe County this year. The Ministry of Education has taken care of it and is afraid that these notices will be lost. Let us remember The list is down, it's all here, there really isn't this Comrade He."
