Chapter 370: Timely Encouragement (I)
Jolene later learned about her boyfriend's rejection of her paper, thinking that his months of hard work had been in vain, and she felt sorry for her boyfriend.
According to Sun Ruiyang, his paper is directly refuse, and there is no room for revision. After studying for so many years, this is the first time he has encountered such a setback, and he is very distressed - is it really his own strength?
On the train back to her hometown, Jolene told him a lot to change it and apply for a lower journal. Although Sun Ruiyang did not respond, Qiao Lin knew that he was unwilling.
"Jolene, you just know, go home and don't tell anyone!"
Jolene tugged at her lips and said with difficulty, "Why don't you sew it up!"
Sun Ruiyang was successfully amused by her and touched her bangs.
Qiao Lin returned home, just in time for Baoqing's thank-you banquet, and Baoqing insisted on calling his good friend Zhao Leilei over. Zhao Leilei was not very happy, but Baoqing invited him warmly, and he was not easy to refuse. After arriving at the hotel, I didn't feel anything when I saw Qiao's family. But when I saw the teacher, I still couldn't raise my head.
His homeroom teacher, Lao Hou, patted him on the head: "You did very well in the exam, why don't you pull a few of them? Young people, you must have the vigor of young people!"
Zhao Leilei reluctantly raised his head and smiled at the teachers, and that smile perfectly explained what it means to be "forced to open".
The results of this pair of brothers who are difficult to take the college entrance examination are actually quite good. Baoqing kept getting injections during the college entrance examination, and he was interviewed after the exam, which can be described as "popular" in one fell swoop. But the Li family was sweating in their hearts, for fear that he would not do well in the exam, which would not match the image of a teenager with excellent character and learning created by the media, and he would be ridiculed again.
Fortunately, Baoqing was very competitive, and his grades were so good that some people's jaws dropped - he scored the highest score ever, which was more than 70 points higher than the first line. Baoqing himself couldn't believe it, and checked it several times before he was sure that it was his own results.
This score is more than enough to apply for the school he has longed for, and he can even apply for the best military medical university and choose a key major.
Bao Qing cried with joy and told every relative and friend the good news. Baoqing's parents also rarely raised their eyebrows and insisted on letting those relatives who looked down on their family come to the house to drink. Those people also had a sour jealousy, but they also had to sigh in their hearts - the son of the sick seedling really had two sons.
The reporter of Gangcheng TV is very dedicated, and after the results came out, he also made a follow-up report on Baoqing's deeds. In the face of overwhelming praise, Baoqing did not lose himself, he was still as shy and introverted as ever, but in the dead of night, he would grin and giggle - in fact, I am really amazing!
After the college entrance examination results came out, Baoqing called his good friends as soon as possible, and Zhao Leilei said a few "", but he just refused to mention his own results.
Baoqing was a little angry: "No matter how well you do in the exam, why don't you tell me, we are still not good friends?"
Zhao Leilei sighed for a while before he said: "I just passed the first line, and I can't go to all the schools I want to go to." ”
Baoqing chuckled in his heart, and said hurriedly: "What about the other military schools? Let's talk about it, we want to go to the military academy together." ”
Zhao Leilei rubbed a piece of confetti into a twist and said: "If I go to a not very good place, I still feel a loss." ”
On the night when she received the application guide, Zhao Leilei's mother called Li Lanzhi and said that she couldn't find her son, and she didn't answer his phone. Li Lanzhi knew that he was hiding from adults, so he asked Baoqing to call him, and Baoqing said that Zhao Leilei was on the playground of No. 2 Middle School.
More specifically, hang upside down on the parallel bars and look up at the starry sky.
Li Lanzhi didn't understand why he did that difficult action, and after finding him, she realized that the kid should want to control his tears.
(I don't know which idol drama I learned from.) )
There are three people who went to find Zhao Leilei, Li Lanzhi, his homeroom teacher, Teacher Hou, and his mother. As soon as Zhao's mother saw her son hanging upside down, her legs became weak, for fear that he would be careless and knock his head into his neck, and he would not be able to take care of himself from then on.
However, as soon as Zhao Leilei heard the footsteps, a carp sat up and turned his back to the adults, leaving only a stubborn and lonely back to them.
Mother Zhao was in a hurry, drank him a few times, and asked him to come down quickly. Zhao Leilei's voice was a little strange, and he said, "As soon as you leave, I'll come down." ”
Mother Zhao couldn't help but stretch out her hand to hammer him: "There is still a teacher here, are you ashamed?"
Zhao Leilei didn't speak, but shrugged his shoulders. He jumped off the parallel bars, walked to a corner, and sat down on the ground.
Although there was still a teacher by her side, Zhao's mother couldn't control her anger and kicked him twice: "What are you doing here? Go back quickly!"
At such moments, the parent's rough behavior can easily irritate the child, so that the child can make more extreme choices. Thinking of this, Li Lanzhi hurriedly stopped her, squatted down, and persuaded Wen Yan: "Lei Lei, there are too many mosquitoes here, and it's about to rain again, is there anything to go back and say?"
Zhao Leilei hugged his knees and buried his head in his knees, his shoulders still shrugged. The elderly teacher Hou also squatted down, grabbed his shoulder, and said, "You kid, didn't you do well in the exam, why are you crying?"
Zhao Leilei's voice was muffled, and he defended: "I didn't cry." ”
"Still hard-mouthed?"
Zhao Leilei raised his head at this time, and said with red circles in his eyes: "I just regret it, I regret dying." ”
"Even if I start studying a few days earlier and memorize a few more English words, I can improve my score by more than a dozen points, so I will have the confidence to apply. ”
"But it's too late to say anything now, and with my score, I can't go to the school I want to go to. ”
Li Lanzhi has been teaching for many years and has seen too many students crying because of the failure of the college entrance examination. But Zhao Leilei is different, he didn't lose, and it can even be said that he played very well. But he still regretted it, because he woke up too late.
Mother Zhao also wiped away her tears: "Teacher Li, you say, what should I do with Lei Lei?"
The score was not enough, and Li Lanzhi had no other way, so he had to coax him to the office first, and then dialed his son's phone, hoping that Qiao Nan could give him some advice.
After Qiao Nan received the call, he was also quite embarrassed, and said with a wry smile: "Teacher Li, aren't you all responsible for the college entrance examination consultation meeting in the second middle school? You are an expert in the college entrance examination, I am not." ”
If I can find a suitable one, will I still ask you? I told him that he should apply for a major in the second school, and his future development will be very good, but he won't listen!" Li Lanzhi looked at Zhao Leilei and signaled that this was meant for him, but Zhao Leilei was not touched. Li Lanzhi had no choice but to say to her son again: "You persuade him and let him die!"
Li Lanzhi was given a headache by Zhao Leilei, so she threw this little burden to Qiao Nan. Zhao Leilei didn't want others to hear him calling, so he took the phone and went to the bathroom.
He still wiped his tears and sniffed, but his tone was extremely firm: "Brother, it's useless for you to tell me anything, I just want to go to you." ”
Qiao Nan almost squirted out the water: "Are you obsessed, why do you want to pester me?"
Regarding the various drawbacks of joining the army, Qiao Nan had already made it clear to him. When he persuaded his blind date daughter to retire, he had a set of rhetoric that "children should be born and raised by themselves, and be ready to be widowed at any time", and when persuading children not to have too many illusions about his profession, he also had a set of rhetoric of "bitter, tired, dirty and dangerous, and completely free at all".
After finishing speaking, he said: "So, Zhao Leilei, what you think is a cool profession is actually very boring, boring, and dangerous, why do you have to come?"
"Then why do you have to stay there?"
Qiao Nan was choked all of a sudden.
In fact, he has been away from home for many years, and he has not had much contact with Zhao Leilei. In his impression, Zhao Leilei is the more persistent one among his many little fans, and he is the youngest group of regulars in the wonton shop. Since he was in junior high school, he has lived with his sister on Jixiang Road, and he usually has no family to take care of him, and he eats almost all three meals a day. Old Qiao is kind-hearted, not only cares about his food, but also often says a few words to him, and he is willing to listen.
Every time Qiao Nan came home, he would take a group of boys to Qiao's house for dinner, showing off that he knew an older brother who was an officer in a very mysterious army. In a very ignorant period, he also asked Qiao Nan, how to use M4 to defeat opponents using AK and AWP?
……
Qiao Nan hasn't played CS for a long time, where can I get the answer?But that kid always pesters him to ask questions, and it doesn't matter if he is rejected, he is super thick-skinned. Qiao Nan was helpless, thinking to herself, Zhao Leilei is really more grinding than Qiao Lin!
Grinding can also be understood as a kind of persistence!
Gradually, his identity changed from Qiao Lin's younger brother and Qiao Nan's little fan brother, to Li Baoqing's good brother, and then to a student that Li Lanzhi attaches great importance to, and finally to a counterattack model often cited by the Jixianglu education industry.
Such a person is actually determined to join the army, and he wants to defect to him, Qiao Nan can't figure out why this kid is so persistent.
"Zhao Leilei, you really don't need to follow my path, your score is not bad, there is a lot of room for choice......"
"Brother...... When I was in elementary school, I learned taekwondo and participated in competitions in the district, but then I gave up. When I was in junior high school, I heard that sports specialties could be given extra points, and I regretted it. If I had persevered for another year and won a place in the city, my parents wouldn't have to pay so much for me to go to school. ”
"I wasted a lot of time in junior high school and spent a lot of money in high school. During that time, my dad and my grandmother scolded my mom and my grandma every day, saying that they were incapable and didn't manage me well. If...... I wasn't so promiscuous, wouldn't my parents' relationship be better? wouldn't my mom have to be scolded so much?"
"If I was too young to understand what regret meant, I know now. Even if I study hard since you gave the seminar, my grades will definitely go up a few points. That way, I wouldn't be as embarrassed as I am now. But now that I've ruined my bowels, I can't turn back time. ”
"Brother, after the results came down, I really thought about it a lot. If I don't want to go to university, I will probably be like my dad in the future, opening a store, buying, shipping, eating, sleeping, beating my wife, and opening my eyes and closing my eyes for a day...... If I live like that for the rest of my life, I am very unwilling. I don't know what other people are like, but every part of the road I've walked now, as long as I look back, is full of regrets. So, I have to make a choice now, I want to be like you, to be a person who is needed...... I think it's ...... meaningful."
