Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Call from My Father

On Wednesday afternoon, as the bell rang for the end of class, the college dogs with stiff muscles and muddy heads walked out of the classroom one after another - the linear algebra quiz had just ended, and everyone looked tired, including Jiang Yucheng and the few rubbers in their dormitory. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Fatty, how does the test feel?" Niu Niu asked with concern.

"What's going on?... Jiang Yucheng replied with little confidence

Of course, the meaning of university tests is different from that of secondary school tests - without the unified review and preparation of all students, students can better appreciate the results of their own planning of learning content. Jiang Yucheng realized it now, because he knew that his plan was no plan, and if he thought about it, the class was barely listened to, the homework was written to deal with, and he was a monk for a day, but he didn't really learn much in his head.

Generally speaking, after the college dog exam, there are about three situations: after the exam, remember all the questions you answered incorrectly, which means that you did very well in the exam; remember all the questions you answered correctly after the exam, which proves that the test is very dangerous; after the exam, you don't know anything, which means that you are going to kneel this time - Jiang Yucheng is now in a state of remembering the questions you answered correctly but being a little confused, in other words, it is very dangerous.

In principle, most of the disciplines in the Department of Chemistry are unattached -- even calculus, usually only those who come to Renmin University in the name of "international students" and have a melon-faced face that they can't even understand Chinese. Linear algebra alone is an exception within an exception. The course was so difficult that last year fifteen of the thirty or so people in the previous class hung on a lamp pole.

Because of this course, the teachers of the Department of Mathematics of the School of Information have received titles such as "Little Queen of the Hung Subject", but in fact the teachers do not really enjoy hanging more people - on the contrary, the teachers themselves hope that the fewer people they will hang on, the better. According to the regulations of the Northeast People's University, "the failure rate exceeds the warning line" is itself a kind of teaching accident. Therefore, in order to allow as many people as possible to pass the exam, the teachers can also be regarded as eight immortals crossing the sea to show their magical powers-Jiang Yucheng, the teacher of their class, is a typical example.

The teacher set a rule that 30 per cent of the usual grade was given to the final grade, and the weight of the final grade was cut from 70 per cent to 30 per cent – and the remaining 40 per cent was given by the results of two quizzes. Jiang Yucheng's class conducted such a quiz in class. Because Jiang Yucheng has put all his energy on writing and the girls around him in the past two days, Jiang Yucheng can only be pessimistic about this quiz. In other words, the role of the quiz itself as a "safety net for preventing failures" has been weakened a lot because Jiang Yucheng's score is too weak.

However, not everyone is so anxious about their grades - for example, Mr. Wang is in a good mood at this time because of his good performance, so he saved up a face of "confess leniently, sit in prison" expression, grabbed Jiang Yucheng and asked:

"Fat fuel, from the truth!--What the hell is going on with that little girl who drove a BMW car last week~~~?"

"Oh, you said Yu Baochen..." Jiang Yucheng looked listless, "Did you see that?" I thought you couldn't see anything other than the computer screen.

"Hey!~~~ I'll just say that you must have a problem!" Teacher Wang became more and more unrelenting, shaking his head, "Say! What is the relationship between you and her!"

Teacher Wang is so happy, his optimism is almost contagious to Jiang Yucheng - but when he thinks of Yu Baochen himself, Jiang Yucheng wants to lament again, and he can't help but tease:

"I don't know what you think - we're just using each other. ”

"Utilization?" Teacher Wang suddenly became energetic when he heard this, "After a weekend, you kid has still grown up?

"What's the matter..." Jiang Yucheng was still as listless as ever, "I don't dare to mess with that kind of girl, I'm afraid that she will explode my chrysanthemum." ”

This frightened him all of a sudden-no matter how well-informed Mr. Rao is Wang was, he couldn't imagine what kind of power the innate god general was, so it was impossible to understand what Jiang Yucheng meant by this. However, Mr. Wang really deserved to be Mr. Wang, he thought about it for a while, and began to ask the bottom of it again-"Eh, by the way, why didn't you see the senior girl who was always with you before?

"......" Jiang Yucheng didn't reply for a while - if Yu Baochen's matter was to make him have both bitterness and happiness, his relationship with Xiaoqi recently had reached the point where he couldn't even smile bitterly. Compared with Shanshan, Xiao Qi is more generous to him, and usually talks to him very calmly, but Jiang Yucheng is not so easy - the previous guarantee in front of Xiao Qi has formed a very big pressure on him. Now he must work hard to make his lies come true and write something that will convince Xiaoqi. And in this way, I have to use Yu Baochen's power - these two guys, neither of them is a fuel-efficient lamp......

When Mr. Wang saw that he didn't answer, he thought that he was pretending to be deaf and dumb and wanted to get by, and when he was about to ask carefully, Niu Niu stopped him:

"The fat man is in a bad mood when he looks at it, so you better forget it. ”

The reason why Jiang Yucheng is in a bad mood is largely due to Yu Baochen - it is really tiring to cooperate with her. Her own thinking is always imaginative, but she never thought of taking care of Jiang Yucheng, who was staying on the ground and following hard. The ideas are one after another, which sounds good, but Jiang Yucheng can't write so many ideas well, if you want to ask her how to write them, she typed on the penguin:

"I'm writing for you, not for you. ”

It would be nice if you could write it for me—Jiang Yucheng snorted. It seems that Yu Baochen also wrote two biographies for "War Queen's Project", telling the stories of the black history of the Cold War that she made up, one "The Scalpel over the Barents Sea", and the other "The White Lily over Stalingrad" - to be honest, these two short stories, in Jiang Yucheng's opinion, each of them are particularly good, basically not much worse than the god Wu Nana. However, she resolutely disagreed to work on the text, and only after Jiang Yucheng wrote the original manuscript did she start to revise it, pointing out that it was not good here, and it was not right there. However, perhaps her requirements were stricter than before—Jiang Yucheng felt more and more that her guidance was a little difficult to understand. At this time, Yu Baochen would explain repeatedly, and bury Jiang Yucheng with all kinds of rhetorical techniques with unknown meanings. When it finally proved that everything was in vain, she would hold it for a long time, and then burst out with a sentence:

"Woohoo! Man and human soul are incompatible・・・・・

Speaking of which, since Yu Baochen officially established a cooperative relationship with Jiang Yucheng, her attitude towards herself has also undergone a second huge change - but this change cannot be completely said to be a good change: her attitude towards Jiang Yucheng has become more and more straightforward, or simply rude. In the past, she would say "I think it's better to write like this......" or "You think this will work...... for chapters that need to be revised", but now, she just says, "What the hell are you writing this?"

Jiang Yucheng worked hard to write a text, and he was directly criticized like this, and he was naturally very annoyed in his heart. Of course, Jiang Yucheng knew that the quality of his writing was indeed very unbearable - but in any case, it was also the fruit of his own labor, and he was said to be useless, and a sense of thankless futility arose, which really made Jiang Yucheng want to shout:

"Lao Tzu is gone!!"

But you can't really quit...... Jiang Yucheng also knows that he is not working for money or interest, but for his family and life, and Yu Baochen ...... No matter what her purpose is, it is also to further improve the quality of her works. As long as your goal remains the same, you have to stick to it - unless you give up completely. Sometimes when he is extremely tired, Jiang Yucheng really has such a thought-

But it can't be. If you give up like this, not to mention that the relationship with Shanshan is irretrievable, even Xiaoqi is afraid that she will look down on herself completely - after all, she first pretended to be forced in front of her, but she failed to pretend to be forced, and she was not accepted if she was soft-now she can only rely on lying. If he can't even stick to the lie, then his whole image is about to completely collapse in Xiaoqi's heart. Even Yu Baochen's guy, Jiang Yucheng didn't want to show weakness in front of her, the more she was picky, the more Jiang Yucheng wanted to show her. It is also for this reason that there are almost no cases of him "borrowing" from other people's works lately - because he does not want Yu Baochen to have to admit that it is someone else's passage when he points out that "this paragraph is well written......

Jiang Yucheng shuffled his heavy steps and stepped out of the west gate of the school when his cell phone rang - the number displayed was quite strange, he had never seen it before. After Jiang Yucheng picked it up, he asked, "Hey?", and after a while, a not very clear answer came from there:

"Hey, Yucheng?"

Only then did Jiang Yucheng know that this was an international call from his father, although the signal was somewhat attenuated, but she would not hear her father's tone wrong:

"Well, it's me, Dad. ”

The voice on the other side was still as majestic as ever:

"Your mom misses you, let me give you a call. ”

"Well, I know. Jiang Yucheng replied, "My mother misses you too." ”

The first thing that came from the other end of the phone must have been the father's usual opening words -- the so-called "your mother" here should refer to his own biological mother! Jiang Yucheng thought so. Jiang Yucheng never believed this sentence. After all, no matter how much my mother stays in the country, I just need to call directly if I really want to do it - why do I have to go around in such a big circle and let my father call!

Maybe the father also understands how the son will understand, but maybe this is the characteristic of father's love, according to the vocabulary of the house world, maybe it can be called "tsundere"?

"How's your health lately?"

"It's good, I'm good, Aunt Han and Shanshan are also good. ”

"Yucheng, you're not too young," his father began to fiddle with his "three things" again, "You can't always stay at home and participate in more extracurricular activities - your school doesn't often have some lectures or something, it's good to have time to listen to more." ”

"Hmm. Jiang Yucheng agreed casually.

"You still have to work this side of learning - if you don't plan to graduate and look for a job directly, then you have to get your grades higher, so that you can hope to keep your graduate school and the lessons of the first semester can't be repeated. His father's advice progressed to the second of the "old three" - Jiang Yucheng almost hung up in calculus in the first semester because of "dereliction of duty", and finally floated low in the sky because of his relationship with the teacher. Of course, Jiang Yu became his own justification - this had nothing to do with writing online articles, because he had not yet entered the pit at that time. On the contrary, after starting to code, the score of Calculus II steadily increased to 70 points.

"Well, got it. ”

Jiang Yucheng replied nonchalantly. , What my father said was indeed right, and my extracurricular life, which I was almost devoted to in online articles, did seem a little monotonous. But the constant repetition of this correct nonsense made him feel annoyed by his father -- but what was the point of confronting him over the phone?

In Jiang Yucheng's view, many things are not what you want to do -- why doesn't he want to get a girl out of the ranks of ** silk? Why doesn't he want to be like Mr. Wang, brush his GPA to 3.9+, and also step into the ranks of school masters? (Note 1) But the reality is so cruel -- no matter how hard he tries and how much he studies on his own, he can't pass the math test of 3.0. On the contrary, people like Mr. Wang, who usually play DOTA, go to D8 and watch wool films, have never studied, but when it comes to the exam, they can always get a good score of 3.7 or 4.0... After all, there is a gap between people - this must be admitted.

What's more, Jiang Yucheng felt that what his father said was a contradiction at all - even if he was not busy with codewords, his total time was limited. My father wanted to let me participate in more extracurricular activities and I had to study hard -- but these two things were inherently different and could not be taken into account. The total time is certain, and if you take care of this end, you must give up the other end...

Note 1: According to the GPA calculation method of Renmin University, a score of 90 or more corresponds to a full score of 4.0, 80 to 90 is a score of 3.0 to 4.0, and so on, with a score of less than 60 being a failing grade and a grade point of 0
