"Zhang Meng, are you dumbfounded?" Seeing Zhang Meng's engrossed look, Xu Ning raised his hand and poked her in the face.

Looking back, Zhang Meng looked down at dozens of color photos in front of her. After a while, she murmured, "Xu Ning, I think I have found my future. I want to design a house."

"House design or interior design?" Xu Ning asked.

"...interior design." Zhang Meng thought for a while and said, "I want to design the interior design of the house in the future."

"Great, I will support you spiritually." Xu Ning was very happy for Zhang Meng, "You have to work hard. When my family buys a house in the future, I will ask you to help us design it."

"It's done." Zhang Meng nodded vigorously.

Before, she felt that her future was a blur. Although she was studying well now, she still couldn't find her direction. After seeing these photos, Zhang Meng felt that a door to a new world suddenly opened before her eyes. I really want to design the brick house at home.

"I've never been in contact with this, but since you want to go in this line of work, you must have some foundation in art. There are also art schools in the imperial capital, so it should be like this. You can consult your head teacher when the time comes, he must know a lot." Xu Ning said.

Zhang Meng nodded, "I understand, I will work hard in the future if I can't do it now, and my family's conditions are not very good. I heard that it costs a lot of money to learn this, but I also heard that there are people who study while working part-time when they go to university. Just be tired, I have a stubborn temper, and if I want to learn, I have to put it into action. Now we are in the third year of high school, and the college entrance examination is half a year away. We should study hard first. There are three months of summer vacation. When the time comes, I will find a part-time job and earn a little money. a little."

"Why don't you just come to my factory, and you can earn fifty or sixty yuan a month, and put up trademarks with Jiang Xiaohui. I heard from brother Zheng that the tuition fee for the first year of college is only one hundred and eighty yuan, and the key is The state also provides living allowances after entering university, and there are forty or fifty quick money every month, you only need to earn enough for the first year of university tuition, and you will spend less than a few dollars in the future."

Zhang Meng suddenly felt like dreaming, "The country will give you money every year after you get admitted to university?"

"Yeah, Brother Zheng has a subsidy of tens of dollars per month, and there is also a subsidy for food. He said that as long as you don't waste extravagance, the food subsidy given to you by the general state is enough for you to eat. In fact, going to college doesn't cost you money. of."

"That's really great." Hearing this news, Zhang Meng suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, which means that she only needs to study hard now. Xu Ning wants to go to the imperial capital. The university in the capital of God is still difficult, unless there is a chance to enter the top ten in the grade, in that case, you may be able to fight for the capital in the capital.

The main reason is that she has been good friends with Xu Ning for so many years, and she will be reluctant to part with them for several years in the future.

Therefore, the next six months will be to work hard, work hard and work hard.

Xu Ning didn't know before that you don't need to pay money to study in college, and you can even make money. Moreover, as long as you don't waste extravagance and waste in college, you can't spend what the state gives you. Package distribution, although the domestic private economy has begun to develop, but state-owned enterprises still occupy the majority. These college graduates have directly entered state-owned enterprises after graduation and have a stable income. When you get married, the state will allocate a house to you, although the area is not large. The better ones are sixty or seventy flats, and the poorer ones are thirty flats, but at least you also have a city hukou, so you don't have to continue to face the loess and your back to the sky.

As for the one hundred and eighty yuan paid during the school term, it is the book fee and other miscellaneous expenses. It is only paid in the first year, and the rest is not needed.

And Xie Zheng also told her that now is a good time, and the university will start charging fees in a few years.

In her previous life, Xu Ning was confused and didn't know when the university charged fees, but she still remembered that when Hua Hua and Xiao Zhong were in college, they couldn't live comfortably without a small 20,000 yuan a year. Conditions are pretty good.

Many years later, there are very few college students in rural areas, and it is both joy and worry for the family members to step out of a college student. The joy is that their child has a good future, and the worry is how can they get so much tuition fees? .

Therefore, if a college student can come out of a village, it can almost be said to be a great joy for the whole village. People in the village will chip in a little bit of money to send this college student out.

In the future, this child may be able to repay the village when he is successful. If he meets a white-eyed wolf and lives well outside, if he is not sure, he will look down on the folks and elders who sent him out, then he can only stare blankly.

On the Mid-Autumn Festival, they went back to their hometown for a reunion festival, and then Xu Ning and Zhang Meng returned to school.

Xu Ning still maintained the old pace, but Zhang Meng's class teacher, Teacher Qi, found that Zhang Meng, who was the top three in the class, seemed to work harder.

Moreover, Mr. Qi was also asked by Zhang Meng a lot of things, all about architecture and art.

Teacher Qi graduated from a normal university. After graduation, he returned to teach in a local high school. He has been a junior for twenty years. Zhang Meng is still the first student who wants to enter the Academy of Fine Arts, but this child has no art foundation at all. This made Teacher Qi's hair turn gray with worry. He wanted to persuade Zhang Meng, but he also knew that the student's character was firm, and that the student's academic performance was really good and stable, so he thought maybe he could give it a try.

Because he didn't know much, Mr. Qi simply learned from his colleagues at the school, and then got in touch with old classmates who hadn't been in touch for many years, asking questions about the Department of Architecture and perhaps the Department of Fine Arts.

It can be said that I really broke my heart.

After figuring it out, Teacher Qi approached Zhang Meng several times for one-on-one conversations.

Zhang Meng also knew that Teacher Qi had a high moral character, and she was very grateful to see this teacher working so hard for her.

"Teacher, do you think my grades have the ability to be admitted to the Imperial University?"

"..." Teacher Qi was a little dizzy, didn't he say that he wanted to go to the Academy of Fine Arts? "Emperor University's admission threshold is very high, unless you can get the top three results in next year's mock exam, but the results you get in our school are not counted, at least the score must not be low. If you can pass the college entrance examination The top ten in the city, you have a great chance to enter the Imperial University, don't you want to go to the Academy of Fine Arts?"

"Well, I want to study interior design in the future. This is a new profession in our country. Xu Ning said that the prospect of this profession is very good, and I like this profession very much. Teacher Qi, you know, I just thought about it before. I have studied hard, and I have never planned what to do in the future, but I saw the decoration of a house in Xu Ning’s family some time ago, and I found it very attractive. Although I really want to go to the Academy of Fine Arts, I am still very interested in the industry of housing construction. She is unfamiliar, so I discussed it with Xu Ning, and she suggested that I should not jump so high all at once, at least start with architecture, and then I will see if I have a chance to enter the Academy of Fine Arts after I get started in this field.”

Teacher Qi is not disgusted with Zhang Meng's mouthful of Xu Ning. After all, Xu Ning's grades are here, and every exam is close to full marks. It can be said that such a student is admitted to Emperor University. Rather as a goal, maybe you will be more motivated.

You must know that their school has been established for many years, and no student has ever been admitted to the Imperial University.

But that's okay, step by step.

"Then you have to work very hard in the future. In fact, the architecture department does not have to go to Imperial University. There are still many universities in China with very good architecture departments. While studying, you should also pay attention to resting your mind and not being too tense. "

"Thank you, Teacher Qi."

Knowing about Zhang Meng's dream, Xu Ning would have dinner with Zhang Meng every day at noon, and study in the classroom with a book, sometimes in the first class of science, and sometimes in the first class of liberal arts.

The two of them were a little quiet when they were in the science class, but when they went to the liberal arts class, many people would gather here when they saw Xu Ning, and even the classroom would become noisy, because the two of them spent more time in the science class many.

Seeing that Xu Ning worked so hard with such good grades, the other students were also infected and worked extra hard.

Seeing the students working so hard, nothing is more gratifying than the teachers. With such a strong learning atmosphere, the teachers are also full of energy.

The snow is falling, the winter is coming, half of the last year of high school is over, and the winter vacation is coming as scheduled.

This year's winter vacation is a bit late. Of course, the start date of next year will also be on the eighth day of the eighth day, but there are a lot of homework left by the school, all of which are papers.

Xu Ning talked to her parents that night, and while her parents were cooking, she plunged into the space to do her homework.

In the kitchen, Qin Xuejuan was thinking about her daughter, and said to her husband, "You said we should buy a car and drive after Ningning graduates next year?"

Xu Jianjun was very surprised. He knew that his wife was rich now, but buying a private car still made him feel a little awkward.

Not to mention the villages and towns below, even in the entire county, there is currently only one public car, which is used by the county leaders when they go to meetings above. If you want to use it for private affairs, it is absolutely impossible. Reporting you is light , You are only a young official, but you act like a corrupt official, don't you want to do it?

Now private purchase of cars is legalized, but not everyone can afford it. It is really too expensive.

My wife was able to take a car when she was young because her family was rich, but now even if you want to buy it, it is not easy. Now there are more and more rich people in China, and as bicycles have perished in the country, two-wheeled cars are now the main products in China. There are not many means of transportation, even motorcycles.

Now if you buy a motorcycle and go back to Xiangshan Village, it will attract the whole village to watch, let alone a car.

"Juan'er, it can be said that domestic cars are very difficult to buy now. Although the country has introduced the legalization of private cars, it still requires a lot of procedures. It will take at least a month or two, and it may not be possible to buy. Up, supply exceeds demand."

This Qin Xuejuan is really not very clear, her husband is a government servant after all, he knows more about such things than herself.

She thought that as long as she had money, she could buy it, but now it seems that she really took it for granted.

"Then let's wait a little longer." She wasn't depressed either, she just said that casually just now.

"Well, wait a little longer."

Just after copying a dish, Xu Ning came in from the outside.

"Aren't you doing your homework?" Xu Jianjun asked.

"I've finished writing, and I've been reviewing for a long time." Xu Ning stepped forward to take over and help his mother cook, and then he can have fun.

"Ningning will take the exam in only three or four months after the Chinese New Year, and I suddenly feel very nervous." Qin Xuejuan poured a bowl of shrimp paste beside her, cracked two eggs into it, and added two drops of sesame oil, ready to put Steam in a pan.

Shrimp paste and scallions are Xu Jianjun’s favorite. A piece of cornmeal pancake, a serving of small salted fish, two scallions, and a bowl of shrimp paste mixed with eggs. It’s really a good meal. In this era of rural areas, it can be regarded as a meal. It's a very good meal, at least it's much more comfortable than eating fried Chinese cabbage all day long.

"Are you afraid that I won't pass the exam?" Xu Ning asked with a smile.

"Even if you can pass the exam, mom will be nervous." Qin Xuejuan didn't want to dampen her daughter's enthusiasm.

Xu Ning is still very confident in herself, she doesn't worry too much, she will not relax when it is time to work hard, if she really fails the exam, it can only be her own problem.

This Spring Festival, Grandpa Jiang's family came back from the imperial capital, but maybe this is the last year for their family to return to Xiangshan Village.

No matter where Xu Ning goes to university next year, Xu's family will probably move to the imperial capital. The house has been renovated. Wouldn't it be a waste not to live there?

Yu Chunhua only has a son like Xu Jianjun left. She doesn't need to take care of her son, but there are also grandchildren. They are also reluctant to stay in the countryside.

Since Xu Ning was about to take the college entrance examination, Xie Zheng didn't do anything shy when he came back this time.

But Xie Zheng seemed more nervous than Xu Ning, so he pulled her to talk to Xu Ning about the college entrance examination this year.

"Ning Ning, this year's college entrance examination is a national unified examination paper. The total score is 710 points, 120 points for language, 100 points for other science subjects, and 70 points for biology. However, it is said that this year's physics is difficult, but again It is difficult for someone to answer it, usually you do more exercises, I bought you some books on this subject from the imperial capital, you should read more at ordinary times, and you must carefully review the questions during the exam, and you must not be careless."

"Of course, I don't need to say anything about the previous pre-examinations. In short, the admission score for the science department of the Imperial University this year is 618 points, but because you want to enter the medical department, you need to add at least 30 points to the score line. I remember that this year's exam questions were not easy. This admission line may fluctuate, and it is still easier to take the imperial university now than it will be more than 30 years later. Now our country is in the early stage of development, and many state-owned enterprises in the country are short of talents. Now the country provides jobs, not to mention college students. It’s even easier for high school students to get a job than in the next few decades, and there are still many types of vocational schools that have separated their students, so as long as you are not nervous, you will be fine, and my brother will wait for you in the imperial capital.”

Xu Ning just listened quietly, Xie Zheng also told him a lot of things, as for leaking questions or something, it was impossible, Xie Zheng was not a candidate for this year, even if he knew the exam was difficult, he didn't read it Pass this year's college entrance examination paper.

But in the following time, Xu Ning couldn't be free anymore. He stayed with Xie Zheng from morning to night every day, listening to him give himself lectures. Except for the other subjects of Chinese, Xie Zheng felt that everything could be involved. Yes, Xu Ning will let Xu Ning think about it first, and if it doesn't work, he will explain it to the girl.

However, in the past ten days, Xie Zheng is gratified. From a zero foundation before to a solid foundation now, her efforts will definitely not be in vain.

Xu Ning has really worked hard. Although it is only five or six years since she was reborn, she has spent at least ten years on her studies. She spends a lot of time in the space and continues to study. When it is time to work hard Absolutely dare not relax, she has suffered enough from being uneducated.

It may not be worth much in the era when college students are flooding in later generations, but in this era, college students are rare, and it is already very arrogant to be able to admit twenty or thirty college students in a high school.

Xu Ning returned to the county with his mother on the seventh day, and the third year of the eighth school officially started.

After that, the atmosphere in the third year of the school became tense, and many students stayed in the classroom to read and study at noon.

Xu Ning also read the information that Xie Zheng brought back to her with Zhang Meng. As for the college entrance examination, she did not disclose it, only she knew it.

If you say it out, people ask you how you know that this year's college entrance examination is a unified test paper, how do you know that this year's physics is particularly difficult? She couldn't answer at all, it might as well be as it is now.

Other people's future belongs to others, she can't control it, and she doesn't have the compassion to manage it. Now she only needs to take care of herself and Zhang Meng.

Xie Zheng's family left on the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, so they returned home and called Qin Xuejuan to say they had arrived home safely, and also said that Qin Xuejuan should take care of Xu Ning's diet, and that the next few months would be the most tiring for Xu Ning when.

Although Qin Xuejuan felt that Xie Zheng didn't need to say these words, she was relieved that the child was worried about her daughter.

At the end of March, the mock exams started. The current mock exams are different from the later ones. If you fail to adjust well after taking the mock exams three times in a row, you are not eligible to take the college entrance examination. She also heard this from Xie Zheng during the Spring Festival.

During the exam, Xu Ning was very relaxed and didn't feel nervous at all.

Review the questions carefully, answer the questions carefully, browse through them from beginning to end if you still have time after answering, and hand in the paper when the time is up.

The process was so smooth that it even gave her the illusion.

On the third day after the exam, the results came out, Xu Ning was still the first in the school, but what made Xu Ning happy was that this time Zhang Meng actually squeezed into the top ten position in the grade, which was Zhang Meng's best exam Yes, after learning of this result, she was so happy that she almost jumped up.
