The 70s Novel: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Lie Down-Chapter 248: The College Entrance Exam Arrives

Chapter 248: Chapter 248: The College Entrance Exam Arrives

As soon as Jiang Huilan and Huang Tianyu left, Cheng Xue started gossiping.

"What’s going on, Aunt? What’s her situation? And how did she end up with Uncle Huang?" Cheng Xue’s eyes sparkled with curiosity, but as she continued asking, she suddenly became worried, "Why did she end up with Uncle Huang? He’s not a good person. What if he bullies my cousin?"

"What are we eating today?" Wang Miaomiao’s eyes glimmered. She had no answers to Cheng Xue’s string of questions, so she diverted her attention for a while.

"Oh... Aunt Li made some chicken soup for you to nourish your body; hurry and have a bowl." Saying this, Cheng Xue hurriedly opened the containers she brought. Right now, nothing was more important than Wang Miaomiao.

Mr. Jiang and Jiang Zhongyi had already moved to the courtyard house, and Aunt Li and Aunt Zhang naturally followed them.

The hospital meals certainly couldn’t meet the nutritional needs of a pregnant woman, so Aunt Li and Aunt Zhang’s presence was indeed a great help.

"Wow, there’s even carrots and corn in the soup..." Wang Miaomiao looked at the bowl Cheng Xue filled to the brim for her. It was packed and looked appetizing, "Aunt Li’s cooking is really good..."

Wang Miaomiao had a good appetite and didn’t experience the usual nausea that pregnant women have. She was pleased, believing that the baby inside her was considerate, and her child would be obedient and understanding.

After lunch, Cheng Xue remembered the earlier topic, "Aunt, what do you think, can my cousin and Uncle Huang work out?"

Wang Miaomiao asked, "What do you think?"

Cheng Xue pouted, looking a bit disheartened, "I think it’s unlikely. I’m sure my aunt won’t agree. Her ideal son-in-law definitely wouldn’t be someone like Uncle Huang."

Wang Miaomiao was noncommittal, recalling the first impression of Bai Li. Back then, Bai Li seemed markedly different from now.

Is this the reality of a daughter-in-law caught in tense in-law relationships? When people harbor grievances, their temperament can change, becoming less likable...

Well, at least now, Zheng Zhen has a place to stay, and Jiang Peng’s house can regain some peace, right?

"Actually, regardless of whether the family agrees, what’s important is Hui Lan’s wishes." Wang Miaomiao, coming from a later generation, felt that parents would ultimately yield to their children, and children’s thoughts should be respected.

It’s her life, after all. Shouldn’t she decide how she wants to live it?

In the evening, Jiang Yan brought dinner and came to take over from Cheng Xue. Wang Miaomiao shared everything with Jiang Yan. Not surprisingly, he agreed with her perspective. And in his eyes, Huang Tianyu wasn’t all bad. Men and women seemed to have different perspectives on people.

Two days passed, and Wang Miaomiao was discharged and returned home, feeling reborn. Her spirits lifted immediately.

Indeed, anywhere is better than staying in a hospital. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Wang Miaomiao’s hospitalization was unexpected, and with Sunshine Middle School nearing exams, Jiang Yan definitely wouldn’t be at ease letting her work there with her current health.

Therefore, Jiang Yan directly took leave for her until after the students’ exams and the holiday.

Wang Miaomiao thought about the upcoming days and felt delighted. Truly, being a teacher was great; the holidays were a joy.

The upcoming days involved eating and sleeping to nurture the fetus. Of course, during her free time, she also worked on storyboards, reviewed high school knowledge, and strived to make progress. It seemed leisurely, yet everything was in order.

This continued until the school term began in September. By then, Wang Miaomiao was over four months pregnant and showing a noticeable belly.

The two classes she had led last year performed well in their final exams. Although she didn’t stay with them until the end, her excellence was undeniable.

For this reason, she received the Excellent Teacher Award for the first time. Impressive! In Wang Miaomiao’s heart, she suddenly had a deeper feeling towards the educational career.

This year, she was still in charge of two seventh-grade classes.

Time quietly passed, and in October, on the 21st, Chinese media announced the restoration of the national college entrance exam. They revealed that this year’s exam would take place nationwide in a month.

Instantly, the entire country celebrated. Students everywhere were joyous and excited. Books on high school subjects flew off the shelves of major publishers. Especially the Physics and Chemistry self-study series; even with the printers working overtime, they couldn’t meet the students’ demands.

Of course, Wang Miaomiao had plenty of these books, and she had stocked up on some. For friends in need, she generously provided them at the original price.

"Sis, the college entrance exam is really happening." That day, unsurprisingly, she received a call from Wang Jia Bao.

"Yes, have you made up your mind?" Wang Miaomiao cared a lot for this younger brother. She hoped he would make good plans for his future by choosing a good major.

"I’ve made up my mind. I’ll take the exam. You’re right; having a degree is really important." Wang Jia Bao’s words were firm and serious.

Listening to him, Wang Miaomiao sensed something unusual, "Jia Bao, did something happen to you?"

Now she was quite sensitive. The baby moved a lot every day, and she eagerly communicated with the baby through her belly.

Wang Jia Bao just laughed, "What could happen to me, sis? You focus on your studies, I need to work hard too."

In the end, Wang Miaomiao couldn’t get anything out of him. Children grow up and have their own ideas. She was just the sister, and at times, she could give advice, suggestions, encouragement, and comfort, but he also had to be willing to accept it.

Wang Miaomiao worked very hard. Since the news broke on October 21st, information on the exam dates, registration, locations, etc., gradually became available. The exams were set for December 7th and 8th, leaving very little time—just over a month.

When the day arrived, Wang Miaomiao, with a big belly, dressed like a ball, entered the examination hall.

Jiang Yan was extremely busy recently, regrettably missing this crucial time for his wife. Fortunately, Jiang Zhongyi and Mr. Jiang were there to take Jiang Yan’s place and see her into the exam hall.

"Miaomiao, don’t be nervous. Do well in the exam. Dad and Grandpa are waiting at the door for your triumphant return." Despite worrying about her belly, Jiang Zhongyi and Mr. Jiang also saw her hard work.

This past month, she had put in a lot of effort just for these two days. As her family, they were bound to support and encourage her.

It was a pity that Cheng Xue and Jiang Huilan weren’t in the same exam room as Wang Miaomiao, so she had to go in alone.

The two exam days passed quickly. For those well-prepared, like her, each subject was quite straightforward.

She took the tests smoothly, expecting her results to be promising.

As she walked out of the campus, she smiled contentedly. University, here I come...

Life once again offered choices. She wouldn’t let it go easily and would definitely put in her best effort.
