Rebirth 77: From Beachcombing to Becoming a Tycoon and Spoiling My Wife

The following day, Yang Bai handed out the final exam papers.

Two sets of math and physics/chemistry materials.

A set of mathematical history.

The three women are still taking their exams in their respective rooms.

Yang Bai wandered around, moving between the three houses.

Zhang Ning was the first to hand in her paper.

Yang Bai nodded slightly as he graded the test papers. "Not bad, perfect score in math, 97 in physics and chemistry."

"This score is definitely enough to get into Beijing Medical College."

Zhang Ning's lips curled up slightly as she twirled a pen under her chin.

"I hope so."

The two women handed in their papers one after the other.

Qiao Manman sat down next to Zhang Ning and asked.

"Ningning, what were your scores?"

Zhang Ning picked up the test paper and said, "385 points."

Qiao Manman took the test paper, gasped, and exclaimed in surprise.

"385 points? That's only 15 points away from a perfect score. You'll definitely get into Beijing Medical College, congratulations Ningning!"

Su Wanqiu also gave a thumbs up.

"Ningning, you're amazing. Strive to become the top scorer in the province."

Zhang Ning waved his hand, "No, it's enough for me to get into the Beijing Medical College, how dare I dream of becoming the top provincial scholar or anything like that."

She didn't know exactly how difficult the college entrance exam was.

Yang Bai's analysis yesterday made sense, but it's always good to stay vigilant.

While the three girls were chatting, Yang Bai changed all the grades.

He opened the exam paper and announced.

"Su Wanqiu, Mathematics 91, History and Geography 99."

The moment the results came out, Qiao Manman looked at Su Wanqiu with disbelief. "Wanqiu, your scores are just as good as Ningning's! Are you really determined to apply to the art academy?"

"Such a good score is such a waste." The total score of 374 points, although different from the scoring standard of previous years' college entrance examinations, is close to a perfect score. Looking at all the top universities in the country, Su Wanqiu is more than qualified to be admitted.

Even at the top-tier Beijing Academy of Fine Arts, her score would still be a waste of her talent, which is a great pity.

Su Wanqiu looked at the finished garments on the sewing machine, gently shook her head, her eyes resolute and calm.

"Making and designing clothes is my dream. I have already set my goals in my heart and will not change my life trajectory because of my grades."

People have different definitions of success, but for her, realizing her passion is the greatest success.

Now, she has added another goal to her life: to take good care of her family.

No matter what lies ahead, her original aspiration remains unchanged and has never wavered.

Yang Bai looked at Qiao Manman and tapped the table.

"Comrade Qiao Manman, you are in the most danger. Math 60, Physics and Chemistry 60."

"Your test scores were quite balanced."

Total score: 289 points.

He didn't remember the admission score for Shandong Ocean University in his previous life, but it was currently the top oceanography university in the country.

It certainly won't be too low.

Qiao Manman scratched her head and laughed, "Hehe, well, I tried my best, don't worry. In the last month or so, I'll study hard and guarantee to improve by at least ten points!"

She held Zhang Ning's hand, pouting.

"Ningning, you'll teach me, right?"

Zhang Ning sighed helplessly, pointing at her head with his finger and saying, "I'll teach you, you little idiot."

Qiao Manman grinned, revealing her bright white teeth, and said with a grin, "Thank you, Sister Ningning."

Yang Bai returned the exam papers to their respective hands.

"Study the wrong questions carefully, especially Qiao Manman's. Don't be careless."

If it were the second year of the college entrance examination, Qiao Manman would definitely not have had it so easy.

Because there is a year to review, the difficulty of the college entrance examination increases significantly the following year.

They still benefited from the era's advantages.

"OK."

Qiao Manman immediately opened the test paper to check the wrong questions.

Su Wanqiu approached Yang Bai and said, "Yang Bai, our art students still need to go to the capital to take the art exam. If it's time, will you come with me?"

Yang Bai nodded in agreement.

The journey to the capital is long and arduous, so it's best to have someone accompany you.

Thinking of the capital city, where he studied in his previous life, he was familiar with the roads there.

I haven't been to the capital city yet in this life, so I'll go there to accompany the examinee and have some fun while I'm at it.

"To the capital?"

Qiao Manman's eyes lit up instantly, and she raised her hand, saying, "I want to go too!"

She had only been there twice in her entire life.

My memory is a bit hazy.

I only remember that there were many fun things there, such as towering city walls and the Great Wall.

Yang Bai pointed at the test paper and said, "You should learn the difficult questions first."

He smiled and shook his head, saying that if he couldn't learn it this year, he would have to learn more next year.

Qiao Manman pursed her lips, picked up her pen, and continued writing furiously.

As night fell, Yang Bai sat in the courtyard playing the violin, its melodious music filling the air. Smoke curled from the stove, and the sizzling sound of cooking filled the air, creating a peaceful atmosphere in the courtyard.

Just then, a series of hurried and chaotic footsteps suddenly came from outside the courtyard gate.

Liu Dade flung open the courtyard gate, his face contorted with anxiety, his forehead covered in cold sweat, and he was panting heavily. His voice was frantic: "Yang Bai, something terrible has happened! Chen Dahai has been arrested!"

"What?"

Yang Bai suddenly stood up, put down his violin, and his expression became serious: "What exactly happened? Sit down and tell me slowly."

Upon hearing this, Su Wanqiu, Zhang Ning, and Qiao Manman all looked incredulous, their hearts tightening instantly. Su Wanqiu quickly stepped forward and poured Liu Dade a bowl of warm water: "Have some water first, calm down, and speak slowly."

Liu Dade picked up the bowl and gulped down water to calm his rapid breathing. He had just witnessed the militia taking Chen Dahai away at the dock, and he was extremely anxious. He had pedaled his bicycle back at breakneck speed, almost causing the pedals to derail.

"I don't know the specific reasons, but the militiamen from the commune who took Dahai away said they found 5,000 yuan in cash in his home and suspected him of illegally selling village collective property!"

"The village's collection team also brought out an account book, which clearly recorded the details of various collective materials that were lost a few days ago."

Upon hearing this, Yang Bai's brows furrowed instantly, and a strong sense of unease arose in his heart.

Five thousand yuan? Absolutely impossible.

He spoke with certainty that resources were scarce in those days, and there were very few things that could be resold on the market. It would take years of accumulation to save up five thousand yuan by selling collective resources.

"Back then, Dahai was down on his luck and almost got his hand chopped off. He couldn't even afford a thousand dollars."

"This is absolutely a deliberate frame-up."

Yang Bai pressed further in a deep voice, "Did the militia or Dahai say anything else?"

Liu Dade lowered his head and thought carefully. After a moment, his eyes lit up: "Before Dahai was taken away, he hurriedly asked me to tell you that the things were placed in the place you usually kept. He said it in a very vague way, and I didn't understand what he meant."

"The place I often hold..."

Yang Bai pondered in a low voice, rapidly reviewing all the scenes in his mind.

He first ruled out his own home and the residences of his female relatives. The only place where he and Chen Dahai usually spent most of their time was on the fishing boat.

In an instant, he suddenly understood.

Yang Bai immediately stood up, speaking rapidly, "Hurry! The person who framed Old Chen is most likely also watching this place. If we're too late, it'll be too late!"
