Li Yungui sighed, filled with gratitude towards the Wei family.
"Dad, all the educated youth in the county took the university entrance exams. Luckily, the educated youth from our village have left."
"Do the educated youth leave after passing the exams?"
"I suppose so."
"They really had it tough, coming from thousands of miles away, having to work to support themselves, and without the awareness to study early.
You all must be grateful to your Teacher Jiang for the rest of your lives."
All four young men nodded. "Yeah, without Teacher Jiang, what would we have done? We wouldn't have learned much in just over a month like everyone else," sighed Hongjun.
Cheng Lin snickered, "By then, we wouldn't even have had the courage to register for the exams."
Hongling also nodded. "Yeah, I came over from the city and had just started primary school. Without Teacher Jiang, I probably would only know how to write my own name."
"Yeah, definitely no courage to register."
