Transmigrated to a Period Novel as the Genius Antagonist's Birth Mother

Chapter 80: Register

Chu Xia placed the admission letter on the table, and both Cen Zhengnian and Cen Huai'an leaned in to read the characters on the admission letter.

Cen Huai'an now recognized many characters. He pointed to the top characters and, with a childish voice, read them one by one, 'Imperial Capital College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Notice of Student Enrollment.'

Cen Zhengnian rubbed his hair, looked at the admission letter, and was happier than when he knew he could go to the university for workers, peasants, and soldiers. The smile on his lips remained.

"What does it say in the instructions?" Cen Zhengnian asked Chu Xia.

Chu Xia handed him the paper: "Registration requires bringing the admission letter, household registration, and a transfer certificate for grain and oil."

There weren't many instructions, just a piece of paper. Most of them were about what to bring when registering, as well as explanations about travel expenses, shipping fees, scholarships, and the like.

After Cen Zhengnian finished reading, he put the admission letter and instructions back into the envelope and said, "The admission letter must be kept safe, don't lose it."

He took it to the bedroom, placed it in the drawer where he usually kept important documents, and turned to Chu Xia, saying, "It's safer here."

Chu Xia: "Okay."

At this moment, Cen Huai'an also received letters from his friends in the Northwest and Bangzi. Xiao He knew the most characters, and he wrote mostly in characters in his letters.

In the letter, he said that he also wants to go to college. 

Hu Pandeng wrote in both characters and Pinyin, expressing his envy. He asked his parents, who never went to college, about it. He also wanted to see what college was like. He mentioned that when Cen Huai'an goes to college with Chu Xia, he must write to show him!

Bangzi and the others wrote a bit more characters, still with drawings. The content of the letter conveyed one message: Wait for us, we will also get into college! We'll come to the capital to find you!

Cen Huai'an wrote letters to each of them again, mentioning that his mom received the admission letter. 

After finishing writing letters to everyone, Cen Huai'an shook his hand: "My hand is so tired, and it's sore."

He realized that having too many friends is also a burden. In the future, he decided not to write so many characters in each letter.

Summer is rainy, and the weather can change in an instant. One moment, it's a bright and sunny day with the sun shining high, and the next moment, dark clouds suddenly gather, and a torrential rain pours down.

Chu Xia is inside the house reading a book when she senses the sudden darkening of the sky. She looks up from the window and sees large raindrops falling outside.

"An'an! Come help me collect the clothes!"

While calling out, Chu Xia runs into the courtyard. The clothes hanging on the line are already dry, but because of the sudden rain, several wet spots appear on them.

Cen Huai'an hears the call and immediately rushes out. He uses a stool to reach the lower-hanging clothes.

The family's clothes are not many, and in less than a minute, they are all brought into the house. As soon as they enter, the rain outside intensifies instantly. It's as if water is pouring down from the sky, even though it's only mid-afternoon, the sky becomes so dark as if it's about to turn night.
