Reborn in 79, the educated youth wife regretted her divorce.

Chapter 47 Getting into Yenching University

Jiang Yang felt a warm glow in his heart as he watched his parents cry tears of joy.

Jiang Dashan and Lin Xiulan immediately began packing their things, preparing to return to the village to share the good news.

After seeing his parents off, Jiang Yang headed to the clothing store.

Meanwhile, Li Wen, still caught up in her excitement, rushed off to find Emily.

"Emily, I have great news for you! Jiang Yang has been accepted into Peking University!"

Emily's eyes widened in surprise. "Really? That's amazing! He's so talented! I'm going to write an article praising him!"

Li Wen excitedly grabbed Emily's hand, "Great! You have to write it! Let everyone know how amazing Jiang Yang is!"

Then, she rushed to the state-run restaurant and found Yang Fen.

"Sister Yang, Jiang Yang has been admitted to Peking University!" Li Wen announced excitedly.

Yang Fen was stunned for a moment, then slammed her hand on the table. “That’s wonderful! This is a huge joyous occasion! I have to celebrate properly! Let’s set up a few tables at the state-run restaurant and have a proper banquet for him!”

The news spread like wildfire through the county government office building.

Upon hearing the news, the deputy county head immediately put down the documents in his hand. "Jiang Yang, this young man, truly has a bright future! I must go and congratulate him in person!"

The directors of the Cultural Bureau and the Industry and Commerce Bureau also received the news and expressed their desire to congratulate Jiang Yang in person.

Jiang Yang returned to the clothing store, sat quietly behind the counter, and examined the admission notice in his hand.

Yenching University, China's top university.

Entering this university was just a new beginning for him.

He wanted more than just a college degree.

Instead, in this era of rapid change, seize opportunities and build a successful career.

Jiang'an County is too small to contain his ambitions.

Jiang Yang stretched, and countless possibilities flashed through his mind.

At this moment, Li Wen pulled Yang Fen and rushed into the clothing store.

"Jiang Yang, congratulations on getting into Peking University! I knew you could do it! We have to celebrate properly this time!" Yang Fen said with a smile.

Before Jiang Yang could respond, he heard a commotion outside the shop.

The deputy county head, the director of the cultural bureau, and the director of the industry and commerce bureau arrived together, followed by a large crowd of onlookers. The small clothing store was instantly surrounded by a huge throng of people.

"Congratulations, Comrade Jiang Yang! You've brought honor to our Jiang'an County!"

The deputy county head smiled broadly and held Jiang Yang's hand tightly.

"These young people are truly remarkable! Young people should have this kind of drive!" The director of the Cultural Bureau exclaimed in admiration.

"You are the first Peking University student in our county! This is a momentous occasion that will bring honor to our family!" the director of the Industry and Commerce Bureau said excitedly.

Jiang Yang was a little embarrassed by this sudden display of force, and his cheeks flushed slightly.

"Jiang Yang, don't worry. When you leave Jiang'an County to study in Yanjing, we will definitely send you off with great fanfare! The future of Jiangjia Village and even Jiang'an County depends on you!" The deputy county head patted Jiang Yang on the shoulder, his tone solemn.

“Yes, you are the pride of our county!” The other two leaders echoed.

Jiang Yang quickly and modestly replied, "It's all thanks to my parents' good education, my hometown's nurturing, and the leaders' attention."

The three leaders were moved by his sincere attitude and burst into laughter.

The surrounding crowd joined in the commotion, offering auspicious words.

For a moment, the small clothing store was filled with a festive atmosphere.

Yang Fen suddenly clapped her hands and suggested, "Jiang Yang getting into university is such a great joy, we must celebrate it properly! Why don't we set up a few tables at the state-run restaurant and have a good banquet for everyone!"

"Great!" everyone cheered.

The three leaders also expressed their support and called on everyone to take the time to share in the joy.

Jiang Yang looked at the enthusiastic faces around him and was deeply moved.

People in this era are so simple and honest, unlike the people around him in his previous life, who were scheming against each other and prioritizing profit above all else.

He felt incredibly lucky.

After the laughter and chatter subsided, the three leaders asked everyone to disperse on the spot, and that the time for the graduation banquet would be announced at a later date.

As the crowd gradually dispersed, the shop returned to its usual tranquility.

Jiang Yang asked Li Wen and Emily to stay.

He went behind the counter, poured two glasses of water, and handed them to the two men.

"I asked you two to stay here today because I wanted to discuss the clothing store with you," Jiang Yang said bluntly.

"The clothing store business is so good right now, I want to strike while the iron is hot and expand the business further, open a few more stores, and ideally cover all the surrounding counties."

Jiang Yang paused for a moment, then continued, "I don't trust anyone else. Sister Yang Fen is busy with the state-run restaurant, so I can only rely on the two of you, as well as my childhood friend Zhang Neng and his wife from the village."

"Don't worry, I'll definitely take the clothing store business to heart," Emily readily agreed.

"This was originally a project we were working on together."

Jiang Yang nodded and then turned his gaze to Li Wen.

"After working with me for so long, don't you trust me?" Li Wen asked with a smile.

Jiang Yang smiled upon hearing this.

Looking at Li Wen and Emily in front of him, he felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

"Keep the clothing store up as I said before, please take good care of it," Jiang Yang emphasized again.

"Don't worry, leave it to us." Emily patted her chest confidently.

She got up to say goodbye, preparing to go back and continue writing her article about Jiang Yang.

Before leaving, she gave Jiang Yang a meaningful look and said, "Jiang Yang, you are truly a legend."

Jiang Yang just smiled and didn't say anything more.

He understood what Emily meant. From being abandoned by his wife and becoming a notorious "son-in-law" to a successful person who had gone to university, his experience was indeed legendary.

After Emily left, Li Wen helped Jiang Yang organize the shelves and take inventory.

The two worked silently, occasionally exchanging a few words, creating a relaxed and harmonious atmosphere.

As darkness fell, the streetlights along the streets gradually came on.

Jiang Yang and Li Wen finished their work, tidied up briefly, and then stepped out of the store.

Jiang Yang rode his motorcycle home with Li Wen on the back.

When he arrived at Li Wen's house, he stopped his motorcycle and said, "We're home."

Li Wen did not get out of the car immediately. She put her hands behind her back, her face flushed, and she hesitated to speak.

Jiang Yang noticed Li Wen's unusual behavior and his heart skipped a beat.

Is he about to confess his feelings?

"that……"

After stammering for a while, Li Wen finally mustered up her courage and said, "Jiang Yang, I... I really envy you for getting into university..."

Jiang Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

It wasn't a confession of love after all.

Li Wen continued, "Although I work at the Industry and Commerce Bureau, it's all thanks to my dad. I was thinking... could you teach me some college entrance exam material before you leave Jiang'an County? I want to... go to Yenching University too..."

Jiang Yang looked at the girl in front of him with slightly flushed cheeks and secretly felt fortunate.

Thankfully, it wasn't a confession of love; he really doesn't want to get involved in those romantic relationships right now.
