Chapter 271 Countdown to the College Entrance Examination

Hearing Shen Xiaoxiao's words, Dai Xingyun, who had also curiously come over to check the question, nodded repeatedly in agreement: "That's right, Xiaoxiao's explanation makes perfect sense. Xiahou, why don't you try calculating it again using the method she suggested?"

Xiahou Jie nodded, and then, following Shen Xiaoxiao's problem-solving approach and hints, he picked up his pen again and carefully recalculated on the draft paper.

Before long, a happy expression gradually appeared on his face. He excitedly slammed his hand on the table in front of him and shouted, "Haha, I really got the right answer!"

"Xiaoxiao, you're amazing! Back then, we were about the same level, but now it seems you're much better than me. I feel like you could totally be my teacher and guide my studies."

Shen Xiaoxiao's lips curled up slightly, revealing a playful smile, and she teased coquettishly, "Are you really going to call me teacher? Then I won't be polite!"

At this moment, Xiahou Jie shook his head helplessly, pointed at Shen Xiaoxiao, and said to Dai Xingyun with a speechless expression, "Xingyun, look at your little one, how can she be so naughty? Aren't you going to do anything about it!"

His tone carried a hint of complaint, but it was mostly playful banter between friends.

Hearing this, Dai Xingyun couldn't help but laugh and chimed in, "Haha, I think Xiaoxiao is right. With her abilities, she can definitely be your teacher, so you should obediently call her teacher!"

As he spoke, he winked at Xiahou Jie, clearly joking.

Upon hearing this, Xiahou Jie's eyes widened, and he feigned anger, shouting, "So, you two are ganging up on me! Just because I haven't found a wife yet, what's so great about that! Humph, you just wait and see!"

After saying that, he turned his head away angrily, pretending to ignore them.

However, not long after, Xiahou Jie turned around and said confidently, "Once I find a girlfriend, I will definitely give you two a good beating."

"We'll show off our love in front of you every day, and you'll experience what it's like to be fed dog food!" As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them couldn't help but burst into laughter, and the whole room was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

And so, the three of them laughed and joked, enjoying the relaxed and pleasant moment to the fullest.

Before we knew it, night had fallen, and soft moonlight streamed through the window onto the ground.

In the evening, Shen Xiaoxiao's father, Shen Zishan, and mother, Ma Aning, specially prepared a sumptuous dinner to reward the three young people who were studying hard.

"Xiaoxiao, Xingyun, Xiahou, eat more to nourish your brains," Ma Aning said with a smile as she served them food.

Filled with gratitude, Shen Xiaoxiao gazed tenderly at her busy mother and said softly, "Mom, don't bother, we'll pick them up ourselves."

Dai Xingyun and Xiahou Jie quickly echoed Shen Xiaoxiao's words.

At this moment, Shen Zishan smiled and said kindly, "Eat more, and as before, finish your meal and quickly review your studies. Leave the rest to us."

Upon hearing this, Dai Xingyun and Xiahou Jie quickly stood up and nodded repeatedly in thanks: "Uncle, Aunt, thank you so much! You work so hard every day, thank you for your hard work."

Ma Aning waved her hand gently, a kind smile on her face, and comforted them, saying, "This is nothing! The more time you spend reviewing, the more confident you will be during the exam."

"As long as we see you all successfully get into your dream universities, all our hard work will be completely worth it!"

Changing the subject, she seemed to remember something, frowned slightly, and showed a hint of worry. She then added, "However, you must not put too much pressure on yourselves."

"If we can pass the exam, that would be wonderful, but if we don't, it's not a big deal."

Upon hearing this, the three exchanged glances and then replied in unison, "Don't worry, Uncle and Aunt, we will do our best to reach our full potential!"

For some time afterward, the three of them were required to stay home and study, and never set foot in the fields again.

He asked the brigade leader for leave and went around borrowing textbooks and materials, throwing himself wholeheartedly into the intense review.

Influenced by them, other educated youth followed suit, and for a time, the whole village was filled with a strong learning atmosphere.

Everyone is putting in their best effort to prepare for the upcoming college entrance examination challenge.

Time flies, and tomorrow is the college entrance examination.

The three of them, Shen Xiaoxiao, didn't touch their textbooks today. Ma Aning prepared a table full of delicious food.

"After you finish eating, you little ones should go back and rest early. Tomorrow is the moment that will determine your fate!"

"You've all reviewed the material thoroughly by now, so don't touch those textbooks tonight."

As Shen Zishan spoke, a fine layer of sweat involuntarily appeared on his forehead. It was the dead of winter, and he was clearly very nervous.

"Uncle, you're absolutely right! We've indeed reviewed all the necessary information, and now we really need to relax a bit."

Xiahou Jie nodded in agreement, and then deliberately stretched out a big yawn to show that he completely agreed with the suggestion.

As everyone's mindset gradually calmed down, the initially tense atmosphere slowly eased.

The group began to eat the food on the table, chatting and laughing. In no time, the table full of delicious dishes was completely devoured.

After the meal, Dai Xingyun stood up as usual to prepare to clear the dishes, but at that moment, Ma Aning rushed forward and grabbed his arm tightly.

"Oh dear, I'll wash these dishes today. You should go home and get some rest so you can have plenty of energy for your exam tomorrow!"

"It's just a few bowls, I can wash them in no time, let me wash them!" Dai Xingyun said softly, a warm smile playing on his lips.

"That won't do! I have to do the dishes today! What if you accidentally hurt your hand while washing the dishes? Wouldn't that affect your exam tomorrow?"

"Old man, stop standing there and come in here to lend a hand!" Without saying a word, Ma Aning snatched the bowl and chopsticks away, said these words, and then hurriedly turned around and walked briskly into the kitchen.

Seeing this, Shen Zishan quickly followed behind into the kitchen.
