The 70s Novel: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Lie Down-Chapter 249: Dreams Come True

Wang Miaomiao supported her big belly with one hand and slowly made her way to the school gate, all the while paying attention to the people coming and going to avoid bumping into anyone.

Halfway there, she was greeted by a handsome man, it was Jiang Yan, "Miaomiao, you’ve worked hard."

Wang Miaomiao exclaimed in surprise, "How come you’re here?"

It was the end of the year assessments, and his more than a year of effort hinged on this moment.

"I’ve finished everything, don’t worry." Jiang Yan was pleased with his performance, and he had heard that this assessment was likely to result in a promotion.

Major life events are approaching for me. Career-wise, I’m due for a promotion and wealth, and in life, a joyful welcome to a child... how can I not be joyful?

"I came to pick you up on purpose. I’ve already reserved a place at Dongxing Building, let’s have a meal at the restaurant to celebrate your successful exam completion." Jiang Yan carefully supported her as they slowly exited the school gate.

Jiang Zhongyi and Grandpa Jiang were already waiting.

"Dad, Grandpa, thank you for all your efforts these few days." Wang Miaomiao first thanked the two of them. They had accompanied her to the exams and were there waiting when she came out. Especially Grandpa, at his advanced age, though she had told him many times he didn’t need to pick her up, he insisted on coming.

"We didn’t do much, just came to wait here, that’s nothing compared to your hard work. Are you tired? Are you hungry?" Grandpa Jiang looked at her belly, smiling kindly.

Not long ago, Liang Meizhi gave birth to another little girl, named Jiang Shanshan.

Honestly, Grandpa Jiang was understandably a little disappointed. After all, the Jiang Family had four girls in a row, and not a single boy. Even though Grandpa Jiang wasn’t biased towards boys over girls, he was concerned about the continuation of the family line.

When Wang Miaomiao recently underwent a prenatal checkup and the ultrasound revealed the joyful news of twins,

it thrilled everyone in the Jiang Family. Two babies meant more hope. Learning that Wang Miaomiao and Wang Jia Bao were expecting a boy and a girl, the light in Grandpa Jiang’s eyes and the smile on his face never faded when he saw Wang Miaomiao.

Oh, just after getting married they’re already expecting, and two at once no less, it’s no exaggeration for the Jiang Family to treat their daughter-in-law exceptionally well.

"Hmm... not tired, but hungry." Wang Miaomiao felt their care and stopped with polite talk. She deeply appreciated the elders’ kindness and resolved to repay them with filial piety in the future. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

The group made their way to Dongxing Building in grand style, where Wang Jia Bao and Liu Jianmin were already waiting at the entrance.

"Jia Bao, Jian Min, why not go inside?" Jiang Yan carefully led Wang Miaomiao at the front, Jiang Zhongyi supported Grandpa Jiang slowly from behind, with no urgency.

"Sister, Brother-in-law, Uncle, Grandpa Jiang..."

"Cousin, Cousin-in-law, Uncle, Grandpa Jiang..."

Wang Jia Bao and Liu Jianmin called out obediently. Wang Jia Bao quickly ran over to support the other side of Wang Miaomiao, while Liu Jianmin hesitated for a moment before also coming over to support Grandpa Jiang on the other side.

Grandpa Jiang didn’t refuse his kindness, gratefully laughing and thanking him. Liu Jianmin blushed slightly, shyly saying it was nothing.

The group entered the private room and took their seats.

"Jia Bao, Jian Min, how did you do?" Wang Miaomiao inquired about their situations.

Wang Jia Bao, feeling confident, said, "I think I did well, at least I filled up the entire test paper."

Liu Jianmin thought for a moment and nodded, "Not bad, thank you for the materials, Cousin."

As soon as the government released the news, Wang Miaomiao gave him the materials she had prepared for a long time. After over a month of review, coupled with his own strong foundation, he performed well this time and was expected to get into a good university.

He wasn’t like Wang Jia Bao, whose grades were generally average, and Wang Miaomiao had discussed future plans with him when he was quite confused. She simply advised him not to give up on studying and wait for opportunities.

Although he didn’t understand her meaning at the time, he listened. Being a diligent and hardworking person, he believed his efforts would pay off.

"No need to thank me, both you and Jia Bao are my brothers; I just hope you succeed."

Wang Miaomiao then asked about their preferred universities.

To everyone’s surprise, Wang Jia Bao wanted to apply to the National Defense Science and Technology University, which is very impressive.

Liu Jianmin’s first choice was the Political and Legal University of China, hoping he could fulfill his wish.

As for Wang Miaomiao herself, her family’s courtyard house is close to Beijing University, and she planned to apply there to make it easier for her to take care of the children later. She intends to stay at Beijing University and become a professor.

The Jiang Family men supported her decision.

With laughter and conversation, time flew by.

After a while, Cheng Xue, Cheng Hongbing, Jiang Peng, Bai Li, and Jiang Huilan, along with Jiang Shulan, also arrived, making it just right with twelve people at the table.

"Come, the kids have all worked hard these past days, let’s toast to their success in entering their dream schools." Jiang Zhongyi raised his glass, offering blessings for their bright future.

Everyone raised their glasses to celebrate, and the atmosphere quickly warmed up.

Bai Li looked at Wang Jia Bao and Liu Jianmin diagonally across from her, thinking that both young men were quite good. But with the generation difference, it was a pity...

Bai Li felt distressed, especially with Jiang Huilan’s marriage situation, which had been a continual setback for her. The deputy battalion commander she introduced earlier was not only disliked by her daughter but also scorned by her mother-in-law, and Jiang Peng resented her for it.

They all said her daughter’s opinion mattered most, and if she didn’t like it, don’t force it, respect her decision.

What nonsense... She had her daughter’s best interests at heart, and listening to her might lead to unforeseen events. She heard that lately, that Huang Family boy was pursuing Huilan, making her even more anxious.

Like a toad lusting after a swan, who does that boy think he is.

However, after the deputy battalion commander incident, she realized her daughter didn’t like rough-type men. This narrowed the range but also made it more specific...

Bai Li hadn’t given up on finding her a partner yet, while Jiang Huilan was being pestered by Huang Tianyu, sneaking around daily to avoid Bai Li finding out, living miserably. The man clung to her like a persistent band-aid.

The meal left everyone happy and satisfied, and the next step was to wait for the acceptance letters.

Finally, 5.7 million candidates across the country entered the college entrance examination hall, which had been halted for eleven years. Ultimately, 273,000 candidates became the lucky ones of the era, becoming part of the inaugural group of university students after the restoration of the college entrance examination.

As for Wang Miaomiao and others, they were very fortunate and got into their dream schools.

Wang Miaomiao got into Beijing University’s Foreign Languages Department, majoring in English and minoring in French and German. Her English was already excellent, so choosing an English major was like having a superpower, allowing her to pick two extra electives.

Cheng Xue and Jiang Huilan both chose Business Administration at Beijing University. The two of them are determined to make Xuelan Clothing bigger and stronger.

Wang Jia Bao realized his wish of getting into National Defense Science and Technology University’s Military Science program, with a promising future after graduation.

Liu Jianmin got into China Political and Legal University’s Political Science, seemingly planning to pursue a political career in the future.
