Chapter 729: I’m truly afraid that my two sons might go astray.

At the mention of this topic, Lin Tang’s gaze flickered.

"Tsk! "

She let out a meaningful tsk, hesitating as she looked at Lin Zhiming.

Lin Zhiming was incredibly curious.

Even though he knew it probably wasn’t anything good, he was still irresistibly curious.

"Little Aunt, what’s wrong with you?"

"Sigh!" Lin Tang let out a long sigh.

She wore a look of helplessness.

"I didn’t want to say it, but since you asked, I’ll tell you. I hope it doesn’t hurt your pride."

Lin Zhiming’s heart tightened, and he stuttered, "No, it won’t. Go ahead, Little Aunt."

"I knew Zhiming would be the most magnanimous," praised Lin Tang before she continued, "I was just thinking that Zhicheng and Zhixuan are so promising, they will definitely go to big cities to develop in the future. By then, they will settle down in the city, marry wives who are culturally compatible and beautiful as flowers..."

"And you..."

"Stay in your hometown, spending your days with your wife picking wild vegetables, eating them steamed, boiled, stir-fried, wearing patch over patch, blushing with shame when your brothers return home..."

"Doesn’t this picture seem a bit tragic?"

Lin Zhiming: "..." In reality, he might not have to live such a miserable life.

Thinking this, the image in his mind became even clearer.

Truly terrifying!

"Little Aunt, surely it won’t be that tragic for me?" His self-doubt kicked in.

Lin Tang shrugged, "Who knows?"

Having said that, she turned to Gu Yingzhou, "Zhouzhou, didn’t you say you are about to be transferred to Jing City?"

Gu Yingzhou didn’t know what his wife was scheming but cooperated as usual and nodded, "Yes, soon."

Lin Tang glanced at Lin Zhiming, who was clearly startled by the news, and said to her husband, "Once I settle down in Jing City, I want to bring Mom and Dad there to live. What do you think?"

This was both a heads-up and a plan she had harbored for a long time.

She admitted she was a mama’s girl and couldn’t be apart from her mother.

Having her parents by her side was such a blissful feeling!

"Good," Gu Yingzhou nodded resolutely.

Over the years as Lin Tang’s husband, he could of course see her intentions.

After agreeing, he continued, "Mom and Dad don’t want to stay far from you, so they’ll definitely be willing to go. Next time we return to Jing City, let’s make some preparations first. We should also pick out schools in advance; the schools there are good. Let’s get Zhicheng and the others to transfer too; it’ll be better for their future."

From the time they married, Gu Yingzhou took every word Lin Tang said to heart, even the jokes.

The previous statement was clearly something he had thought through seriously.

Lin Tang felt sweet inside, and it showed on her face.

It was obvious from the pretty face that had not changed since her girlhood.

Time had not brought her any signs of aging but had rather added to her maturity and elegance.

"Thanks, Zhouzhou~!" Lin Tang said, leaning on Gu Yingzhou’s shoulder with a smile.

"It’s what I should do," Gu Yingzhou said gently, smiling.

Over the years, it wasn’t just Lin Tang who had changed. Gu Yingzhou had also changed a lot.

The harshness about him had diminished considerably, especially since they had children. He had become unexpectedly tender with the passage of years.

As the couple spoke affectionately, Lin Zhiming fell back into self-doubt.

His little aunt’s words lingered in his ears, and the more the young man thought about it, the colder he felt.

Suddenly he asked, "Little Aunt, if I take your advice and think hard, can I also go to Jing City with you?"

Lin Tang spared Lin Zhiming a glance and asked as if offhand, "What if you can’t figure it out right away?"

When it came to the critical moment, Lin Zhiming’s mind worked incredibly fast, "...Then I’ll stay in school and keep studying."

That was Jing City, after all.

As long as he could go to Jing City, he’d be willing to stay in school for ten or eight years!

Seeing Lin Zhiming’s resolve, a satisfied smile appeared in Lin Tang’s eyes.

"Deal!"

In fact, regardless of whether Zhiming figured it out or not, she would have taken him to Jing City for a look.

Traveling to different places at a young age is very beneficial for one’s growth.

She also hoped that this method would motivate Zhiming, even just a little.

After all, those with higher education levels have more options than those with lower ones.

Lin Zhiming was as excited as if he’d been injected with adrenaline and his face flushed, "I’ll start thinking tonight."

That was Jing City, after all.

He heard there was the Great Wall, and you could even watch the flag-raising ceremony...

Lin Tang slapped Lin Zhiming’s shoulder approvingly, "Hmm, take your time, no rush."

It would be best if he could figure it out by the time he graduated from high school.

After consoling the confused young man, she and Gu Yingzhou left for their eldest uncle’s house.

Lin Fu was lounging in a chair in the courtyard, catching a breeze, when he heard footsteps and opened his eyes.

"Tangtang and Yingzhou are here," he said with a warm smile.

"Uncle," Lin Tang and Gu Yingzhou greeted him.

Lin Fu sat up and beckoned the couple over, "Come and sit. Where are Ajing and Alin?"

Lin Tang replied with a smile, "They ran off to play in the village."

Lin Fu feigned a stern look, "What kind of talk is that? You’re a mother now, how can you still speak so carelessly? It’s normal for children to want to play. You and Yingzhou shouldn’t be too strict with them."

Lin Tang helplessly said, "...It’s not us being strict with them; it’s them being strict with us."

"We’re not," Lin Tang sighed.

With so many people spoiling their two sons, she really worried the boys might turn out spoiled.

After a few inconsequential remarks, Lin Tang broached the real reason for their visit.

"Uncle, we’ve received some news that we thought about and decided to tell you."

Seeing his niece’s serious expression, Lin Fu immediately sat up straight and asked, "What news?"

Lin Tang lowered her voice, "...The college entrance examination is about to be restored."

"What?!" Lin Fu’s voice shot up, and he sprung out of his chair, shock written all over his face.

Knowing the gravity of the situation, he held back the barrage of questions that nearly tumbled out of his mouth.

Once he had calmed down a bit, he took a swallow of saliva, his eyes burning with intensity, "Is this true?"

"Yes," Lin Tang nodded, then informed him about the approximate timing of the first college entrance examination and the registration requirements.

When Lin Fu heard that the registration criteria would break through class barriers, his eyes suddenly moistened.

He was overwhelmed with emotion.

He felt incredibly happy for those who had wasted nearly a decade in the countryside and were no longer young.

"Good, good! This is great news. I’m so happy..." Lin Fu said excitedly.

Lin Tang, seeing her uncle nearly in tears, quickly changed the subject, "Uncle, we can’t talk about this openly yet. What does the brigade plan to do?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Fu snapped back to reality.

He thought over a few plans in his mind but found none completely satisfying and asked Lin Tang and Gu Yingzhou, "What do you two think?"

Lin Tang said, "We brought back some books. The brigade could set up study groups based on them, study that material, have monthly assessments, and give rewards for good performance. This will foster healthy competition. We can start preparing now, so when the notice comes, everything will happen naturally."

After all, it wasn’t the first time the brigade had organized such an event.

Gu Yingzhou looked approvingly at his wife, "That’s a good plan. It’s akin to helping Professor Chu and others legitimize their work in brigade building while improving living conditions on the side."

"That’s right~!" Lin Tang raised an eyebrow smugly, accepting Comrade Gu’s praise.
