1742 Invalid Proof

"Such a major thing has happened at home and your eldest brother is still at work? Tell him to come back immediately!" Xu Ju roared.

"There are also many things to do in government services. Compared to our family's issues, the country's issues are more important and need my eldest brother's attention more. Eldest Aunt, don't you think so?" Qiao Mei said to Xu Ju with a dark expression.

Any matter related to the country was definitely a big deal and Xu Ju was almost tricked by Qiao Mei. If Xu Ju really said anything bad about the country, she would be arrested and criticized.

She did not expect the third son's wife to be such a tricky person. She had to be careful when dealing with this woman. Before Qiao Mei came home, Wan Wen had already told Xia Wen about what was happening at home. Not long after, Xia Wen returned with his briefcase.

"You're finally back! Did you cheat my child! At the end of the day, you're still our relatives! Why are you doing this to our family!" Xu Ju said as she grabbed Xia Wen.

"What exactly happened?" Xia Wen asked Xu Ju, feeling confused.

"The recommendation letter you gave us is fake! The background proof is also fake! They don't want to accept our Xu Jiao anymore! Why did you do this to us!" Xu Ju asked angrily.

After Qiao Mei entered the house for so long, she finally knew the "major thing" that Xu Ju was talking about. She had thought that it was something very important, but it turned out that it was about the issue of Xu Jiao going to school.

"Didn't Eldest Aunt already verify whether the documents are real or not? I don't know why you're asking such a question," Xia Wen said.

"Then why don't they allow her to be enrolled!" Xu Ju questioned.

In the beginning, when Xu Jiao went to complete the admission procedures, they asked her to go home and wait patiently for a while. Unexpectedly, the school suddenly called up after a week and said that they were no longer doing admissions. They were not going to accept her this year.

Only then did Xu Ju know that the government had just issued a notice to resume the college entrance examination. Anyone could take the college entrance examination. As long as one could pass the political background checks, one could sign up to take the examination. There was no restriction on age or status!

As soon as this policy was introduced, the entry route of admission by class background was immediately removed. It was useless even if the prospective students had proof of class background. The college entrance examination was implemented for the entire country and there was no such thing as proof of class background in the future.

"This is also the first time I'm hearing about this," Xia Wen said.

"You have to think of a way for me! You must let my daughter go to university!" Xu Ju said as she pointed at Xu Jiao.

Xia Wen shook his head and said apologetically, "There's really nothing we can do about this. I also just know of it now. The Xia family has already done the best we can do. All you can do is to let Xu Jiao take the college entrance examination."

"The college entrance examination? I don't want to take the college entrance examination! I want to go to Capital University!" Xu Jiao sat on the ground and rolled around as if she wanted to die.

"Your Xia family is resourceful and knows so many people. How can there be no other way?" Xu Ju asked.

"Our Xia family always follows the procedures and never gets in through the back door. Your earlier situation is already an exception. Now that the policy has changed for the entire country, there's nothing we can do," Xia Wen explained.

"Alright! All of you are really capable! You're all bullying our family!" Xu Ju pointed at the Xia family members and said fiercely.

Qiao Mei picked up an apple and ate it as if nothing was going on. Xu Ju looked at Qiao Mei and said to Xia Wen, "You must have done this on purpose! If you don't know, why would she want to take the college entrance examination without using proof of class background? You must be lying!"

Qiao Mei frowned slightly. How could this woman criticize her about everything? She could even be implicated when the whole issue had nothing to do with her.

"It's my choice to take the college entrance examination and it has nothing to do with my eldest brother. Don't spout nonsense here. Our family has always done whatever you say and we give you whatever you want. Now that we're helped you, you don't want to listen and even blame us. There's no such logic in the world," Qiao Mei said.

"It's your choice? Stop bragging! You haven't even gone to school for a day! You're illiterate so how can you take the college entrance examination? How can you pass it?" Xu Ju said mockingly.

"I went to elementary school and did self-study for junior high school. Why can't I pass the examination?" Qiao Mei questioned.

"In that poor and remote place of yours, even if you go to school, you're still considered uneducated! My daughter is already in her third year of high school and still doesn't have the confidence to pass the college entrance examination. As if you can do it," Xu Ju said.
