Eleven was hot enough to wear short sleeves, and at the end of October it was cold enough to wear a sweater. On the day of choosing a mentor, Jolene deliberately wore a red sweater jacket (given by her sister-in-law) to make herself look scrappy.

I heard that in the past, tutors were arranged according to the admission grades, and the students with the highest grades were of course assigned to the more famous teachers. This year is different, students have (ostensibly) autonomy to choose their own tutors.

Jolene also understands that the choice of students is not very meaningful, and everyone will definitely choose the gods of academia in one go. But there are more monks and less meat, and in the end, they must be distributed according to their grades.

Qiao Lin can still see Liu Zhengcheng often, and they both belong to the English department, one majoring in translation and the other majoring in linguistics. When they were in public classes, the two often met, and the dormitory was not too far away.

There is no competition between the two of them, and Liu Zhengxin no longer always targets her, and often takes the initiative to greet her. But the kindness she showed was still the kind of feeling that the leader felt for his subordinates, so every time she saw her bow and greet, Jolene always wanted to turn around and leave.

Of course, she can't be so ungraceful, and she can still get by on face.

After a long time, the people around Jolene also noticed this problem. Her new friend, Xiao Jiang, said, "Hey, how do I feel, what kind of minister is that graduate student union...... She always looks down on people, does she?"

Don't feel it, she just looks down on it.

Jolene only smiled wryly, not wanting to mention her again.

However, Liu actively entered a better school, and the circle was better than before, so she still restrained a lot. Probably ridiculed by the group a few times, she no longer shows off her previous travelogues, and she no longer brags about her achievements, in short, in front of her new classmates, she is still quite low-key.

The mentor was about to be chosen, and Jolene called out to Xiao Jiang to go together. The two of them got on the elevator with a smile, and a few girls were discussing: "Eh~ Have you heard of it, there are still three students from the English department." ”

"Cut, what has become of our school, and the students of Sanben are also accepted?"

"That's it, mixed with the students of Sanben, so what have we become?"

Although they were laughing at themselves, the burst of relaxed laughter still made Xiao Jiang blush, and she shrank into the corner. The three schools that do not enter the stream, born in remote mountainous areas and rural areas, are the two labels that cannot be torn off from her, and they are also the source of her inferiority.

Jolene took her hand and motioned for her not to be timid, then cleared her throat and whispered, "Since...... It's your own problem that people like us have fallen together, right?"

……

The elevator was just on the first floor, and several girls turned blue and walked out of the elevator unwillingly.

Qiao Lin still held Xiao Jiang's hand and encouraged: "I'm not wrong, those people who have a sense of superiority are now in class with us...... Anyway, it's not our fault, is it?"

Xiao Jiang Wan'er smiled: "Actually...... We're pretty good, aren't we?"

Jolene held her head up triumphantly and strode forward.

These people around Jolene who are studying in graduate school are very powerful with the "bosses". It is said that my sister's "boss" is a well-known chemist, but Jolene doesn't know him at all. Sun Ruiyang and Qiao Nan's "boss", Qiao Lin has met a few times, because they often appear on TV as experts to popularize medical or military knowledge to the audience. Qiao Lin thought it was powerful, but their disciples had long been accustomed to it.

Jolene also wanted to talk to a more powerful "boss", and she even fantasized that if she learned anything in the future, the "boss" would take her to attend and introduce herself to other bigwigs...... Ah, if she crosses into martial arts, then she is a famous disciple next to the "boss", and she is no longer an apprentice who is wiped out in the crowd.

Those scenes are exciting to think about, but back to reality, she doesn't have that much choice.

Xiao Jiang secretly asked her, "Qiao Lin, will you choose Professor Cui?"

Jolene shook her head very resolutely in denial: "Although she is the most famous in our department, I will not choose her." ”

"But she's so powerful, she's published a lot of books......"

Qiao Lin thought for a moment and asked, "Then does she have any particularly famous disciples?"

Xiao Jiang searched in his mind for a long time, but finally found no answer.

Grandma's three children are all teachers, and Jolene knows too well the character that a good teacher should have. From the moment she deliberately made it difficult for her in the examination room, she was disappointed in this teacher.

Jolene also asked herself, was she too cautious?

Be careful, be careful!

While waiting for the results of the graduate school entrance examination, Jolene was so tormented that she was about to suffer from anxiety. She believes that her own strength can be, but judging from her past life experience, she feels that it is not so easy for her dreams to come true. What's more, she still had a-for-tat confrontation with that Professor Cui in the examination room, and she couldn't wait to kick herself out of Peking University, right?

When the admission results came out, she was still submitting her resume to the publishing house, and if she failed to pass the graduate school entrance examination, she would at least have to find a job to support herself. But at that time, it was too late to find a job, and many good units were already full. Unless she is super lucky, she can pick up the slips and find them in a large company, but there is a high probability that she will have to work in those small companies that are just starting out.

On the day the results came out, she was still out for an interview, ran for a day, hungry, but did not receive an offer. On the subway back, seeing the sunset falling little by little, she remembered those Japan that was sad to the bone, and expressed it in Japanese, probably - no matter how hard you work in life, you can't see hope.

She was depressed, and Sun Ruiyang sent her a screenshot, which was the admission result of the graduate school entrance examination. When she saw the words "to be admitted", she blinked in disbelief, and as a result, all the tears fell onto the screen of her mobile phone.

She called her boyfriend's phone tremblingly and asked, "Xiucai, do you plan to admit ...... What does that mean? Is it still possible to be brushed off?"

"Little fool! Proposed admission is admission, as long as you don't give up this opportunity, the school can't want you. ”

That day, Qiao Lin must have been like Fan Jinzhongju, crazy and crazy, and she smirked at everyone she saw. It is said that she drank a lot of alcohol, and it was Sun Ruiyang who carried her back to the dormitory. But where she bought the wine and how she drank it, she had no memory at all.

For this reason, Sun Ruiyang also taught her a lesson - a little happy thing is crazy like this, if he is not around, she is taken advantage of by others, what should she do?

Jolene was very embarrassed, she also wanted to accept the good news lightly, tell the good news to others elegantly, and it was best to put on an atmospheric posture of "just this little achievement, it is really not enough to worry about...... But she couldn't, she just cried with joy and was drunk unconscious.

After her epilepsy passed, she chatted with Murong and talked about the whole process of getting the admission notice. Murong's first reaction was: "Hey, Jolene, your boyfriend really cares about you." ”

"Why did you mention him again?"

"You forgot to check the results, he helped you find them!"

Jolene only then remembered that because she was afraid of facing failure, Jolene taught her boyfriend the heavy responsibility of checking grades. She really can't remember the time period when she checked her results, but Sun Ruiyang remembered it very clearly, helped her brush it every day, and helped her brush the good news as soon as possible.

Qiao Lin laughed happily again, and Murong quipped: "Your current school, but you are on an equal footing with him, so he doesn't have a sense of crisis?"

"No, he is already so powerful, how can he have a sense of crisis?" Qiao Lin thought about it, Sun Ruiyang not only tried his best to help her, but also put a lot of effort into Wei Chenglin. When it comes to "selflessness" to his relatives and friends, he has done better than most people!

When it comes to "selflessness", Jolene also practiced it once. When she graduated, she gave all the reference books as high as her thighs to a student she admired, and only kept the notes as a souvenir. The student was stunned, and even asked if the graduate students who were admitted to Peking University should read so many books?

Qiao Lin faintly put on a × and said, "I haven't counted those papers I have done, come on, I'm waiting for you at Peking University!"

Qiao Lin had thought many times that Professor Cui would not let her enter this major. She thought that the reason why she was able to come in was not because Professor Cui admired her talent, or because she was acting like in an idol drama - hey, this student is so good and has a personality, you managed to get my attention!

In reality, such a plot is almost non-existent. Especially after entering the school, Qiao Lin obviously felt the coldness of Professor Cui, and did not show any welcome or appreciation. Jolene got the chance to enroll, so she didn't care about it anymore. But she guessed that Cui didn't welcome her, but in addition to Cui, there were several teachers in this major, and they could probably give a fair score, so that Qiao Lin had a chance to make her dream come true!

Before Qiao Lin chose a supervisor, she also asked Sun Ruiyang's opinion, and Sun Ruiyang also told her not to be obsessed with fame, but to try to choose a professor whose research direction is in line with her own. It is best to find out the character of the professor in advance, and the kind of person who oppresses students must not be chosen.

Jolene sat in the classroom, got the form, and quickly wrote down a person's name. That person was none other than the male teacher who waved at her in the examination room.

Judging by his appearance, Jolene thought he should be a little old, at least in his forties. However, in the first class of the semester, he introduced himself, saying that he was a post-80s generation, that year he was just 32 years old, and it was only one year after graduating from his doctorate.

……

His hair was terribly bald, and there was a patch of gray hair on the back of his head. Facing the surprised and somewhat dull eyes of the students, he said, "Don't panic, when I was twenty years old, there were already children calling me uncle." ”

……

After listening to his lectures, Jolene found that he didn't care about his appearance, and he often told his students to pay attention to hair loss. Jolene boldly recommended him some anti-hair loss shampoos, but he laughed twice: "No matter how strong the shampoo is, it can't save a brain who engages in simultaneous interpretation." ”

……

Jolene shivered and touched her hair. Fortunately, there is still a thick handful, and it doesn't hurt to drop some.

Later, Qiao Lin added his WeChat, the young professor's surname is Huang, but his WeChat name is called "Big Rhubarb", and his avatar is also a big yellow dog. When the students read out his WeChat name, he asked with a smile, "Does it feel like a Chinese pastoral dog?"

……

The students were noncommittal, and he said sadly: "To be honest, I used to have a dog called Rhubarb. ”

……

Again, the students looked at each other, not knowing what to do. He took a sip of water before he said, "Although my WeChat name is rhubarb, you can't call me that, you have to call me Teacher Huang." ”

Compared with other professors, Comrade Rhubarb is very young and his research achievements are not so rich. Not long after he returned to China, he didn't accumulate much of the network resources in this circle. Therefore, he was humorous and easy-going, but no one wanted to be his disciple.

After Jolene filled out the form, Rhubarb glanced at her, intentionally or not. Just like when he waved at himself, Qiao Lin also waved at him, smiling like a flower, as if to say-Teacher Rhubarb, please take care of him in the future!
