Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Protégé
The women's volleyball team of the first class won the championship in the whole school competition, which won glory for the first class and the physics department. The professors of the Department of Physics are impressed by the first class of things, and they attach great importance to the plateau.
These professors are not experts in playing volleyball, but they are not outsiders. It is often said that there can be no revolutionary action without revolutionary theory, and they have a deep feeling that theory guides practice. They saw that behind this volleyball tournament, there was an idea that played a leading role. Every comment published by Takahara predicts that it is a signal that the professor is not only a must-see, but also often ponders the article. Winning or losing is only a superficial thing, and they see what is behind it. Although Gao Yuan did not play, he was the commander and planner behind the scenes, he armed the team with a scientific idea, he applied scientific knowledge to practice, this is a great doer. The first class of women's volleyball team won the championship, and the plateau contributed indelible.
As soon as the competition ended, Professor Wang of the Department of Physics immediately sent an invitation to Gao Yuan and invited him to come home for a light meal. Because Gao Yuan's last article on answering questions and solving doubts is simply a good academic paper with ingenuity. Gao was originally Professor Wang's most proud protégé, and he was proud of such a good disciple.
Gao Yuan gladly went to the appointment.
Professor Wang lives in a small courtyard. Professor Wang stood at the gate of the small courtyard to greet Gao Yuan, who hurriedly greeted Professor Wang.
Professor Wang clasped Gao Yuan's hand and stepped into the small courtyard where he lived. The small courtyard is planted with flowers, plants and fruit trees, which is a bit of a rural mountain taste. In particular, in the northwest corner of the small courtyard, there is a mound of soil more than one meter high and four or five square meters in size, which is planted with layers of flowers and plants. If this mound is enlarged and said to be a mountain full of flowers, then Professor Wang's bedroom is at the foot of the mountain. It's really scenic and beautiful. Professor Wang took Gao Yuan on a tour of his courtyard and then his residence.
From the outside, it is a large tiled house with a polygonal shape. There are doors in different directions. Inside, you will find a living room, a dining room, a bedroom, a study, and a small working laboratory. Some of Professor Wang's experiments were done in this small laboratory. Professor Wang is sometimes resting at home. He suddenly realized a certain problem, and immediately went into his small laboratory. He is the one who finds the problem, solves it immediately, and does not let the problem stay overnight. Professor Wang's professionalism inspires every student.
The restaurant already has delicious food prepared. Professor Wang invited him to a treat, and Professor Wang's wife, Professor Hu, and his daughter, Wang Yan, accompanied him.
When the four of them were seated, Gao Yuan took out a folded piece of cardboard from his arms and handed it to Professor Wang with both hands.
"Professor Wang, I have nothing to repay on the plateau, I know that next month is your old birthday, and I made a greeting card myself to express a little bit of my student's heart."
Professor Wang took it, opened it, and nodded his head with a smile on his face. When his daughter Wang Yan saw it, she immediately stretched her head over and said with a smile:
"Dad, let me see it too."
"Let's show you, look at your Brother Gaoyuan, what an all-rounder."
Wang Yan took it and took a look, only to see a birthday guy with his mouth open, and said with a smile:
"Happy birthday to Professor Wang."
She was just about to say that there was nothing special, but she suddenly found that this birthday guy was extraordinary. Take a closer look, this birthday guy is actually composed of four Chinese characters of "plateau dedication".
Wang Yan smiled and passed it to Professor Hu.
"Mom, test you, see what Brother Gao Yuan's painting means?"
This Mrs. Wang, Professor Hu from the Department of Biology, picked up this piece of paper, just changed the angle and distance, and said with a smile:
"Gao Yuan, you are full of artistic cells, and you are also very good at planning."
Professor Wang smiled and said yes.
Gao Yuan said with a smile:
"I'm an imitator, not my originality, I can only parrot it."
Wang Yan hurriedly said:
"Daddy, put this card under the glass pane of your desk. I'm sure none of your colleagues will have such a greeting card there. Unless ......"
Wang Yan set his sights on the plateau at this time.
Takahara immediately understood what he meant. He said in his heart: What a clever girl. Immediately following Wang Yan's words, he said:
"This is my first clumsy work, and my first whim, and there will be no second time."
Professor Wang smiled and waved his hand and said:
"Go ahead, press to the middle of the glass pane, and come back to eat."
Wang Yan replied yes and flew out like a little swallow.
Professor Wang looked at his daughter's back, nodded with a smile, and shook his head again:
"Gao Yuan, look at my daughter, although she is only two years younger than you, she is like a kindergarten child, and she can't grow up."
Gao Yuan explained with a smile:
"She does this every day, isn't it just to make you two elders happy? If you put her in another environment, she would have been more calm and sophisticated than anyone else, because you have set an example for her. ”
Professor Wang smiled and said to his wife:
"Wow, wife, look at the kid Gao Yuan's opinion, it's just different from ours. It seems that we are really old, and there is a big and deep generation gap between us and young people. ”
Professor Hu also smiled and asked:
"Gao Yuan, do you mean that the older we are, the more childish and ridiculous she becomes?"
Gao Yuan laughed:
"Yes, two opposing extremes, there will be a new harmony. Isn't this the law of the unity of contradictions? She has to be childish and ridiculous to make you happy, your mentality is good, and you will naturally live a long and healthy life, this is her wisdom and filial piety. If a family of three is all following the rules, not smiling, not lively enough, and more than serious, can there still be laughter in this family? Some people say that home is the nest of tired birds, and others say that home is a haven for small boats. Let me say that home is a treasure land full of warmth, care and laughter......"
"Okay, Gao Yuan, your explanation has answered the question I have been thinking about for many years, and it has also relieved me of a piece of my heart disease. In the past, I always worried that she was naïve and ignorant, had no life experience, and was a child who didn't grow up. Without us, she would not have been able to gain a foothold in society. It seems that my worries are unfounded. We want to thank you. ”
Professor Wang smiled and said, and stretched out his hand to the plateau again, holding it tightly.
