Chapter 43: At first glance, it looks like a bitter master of a fraud case
Wen Yan checked for a while, and finally determined that the Beijing area in 03 was no longer a 3+ liberal arts and sciences comprehensive model, but a 3+ liberal arts comprehensive or science comprehensive.
And since 03, the college entrance examination has begun to become June every year, one month earlier.
If she signs up this year, she can only take the college entrance examination in '04......
Has there been any change in the college entrance examination policy in 04?
Wen Yan always felt as if something had happened, but he really couldn't remember it.
It is impossible to predict the future of the information checked on the Internet.
Not to mention that the current network is far less developed than in later generations......
She sighed, and finally stopped thinking about it so much.
Anyway, I have already decided to start the college entrance examination again, even if it is difficult, just overcome it bravely!
Fortunately, starting this year, it is already possible to register online.
She sent a message to Xu Changwei, informing her that she had decided to take the college entrance examination again, hoping that he could give some advice on reference books.
At this time, Xu Changwei was probably in class, so he didn't reply to her message in time.
Wen Yan was not in a hurry, and started to make zongzi with Clarissa in high spirits.
On a whim, Alyssa even had the idea of wrapping a rose-filled rice dumpling......
"I think it's going to be a dark dish!" Wen Yan said.
Roses are good, but you can't add everything!
But Lissa insisted on this, and she could only go along with people.
She believes that even if the rice dumplings will be difficult to eat, the teacher will not hesitate to eat them all.
In the past, when there was any unpalatable food at home, my father praised her and Aunt Alyssa with an extremely helpless expression, and then ate it all.
Wen Yan couldn't help but laugh when he thought about it...... Why does she always compare her father to her teacher?
Unsurprisingly, at lunchtime, Lissa and Wen Yan ate zongzi.
For the zongzi wrapped in roses, Kalisa really gave up: "I don't think this zongzi is unpalatable, but the appearance of it after cooking is too terrible...... I'm a person who has a passion for beauty! β
What else can Wen Yan do, of course, it is for Xu Changwei to stay for dinner!
"This egg yolk dumpling is very delicious! This sweet bean paste is also very delicious...... "After taking a bite of each flavor of zongzi, she was full of praise: "This rice dumpling with nothing is super delicious with honey!" Oh, my dear Yan Bao'er, what an angel you are! These hands of yours must have been kissed by God...... It's so delicious, just like your dad! β
Her eyes were full of nostalgia, as if she was going to eliminate the zongzi one by one with the weight of two people.
"It's a pity, this zongzi is too easy to eat, otherwise I'd love to try the mooncakes you made......"
Alyssa rubbed her stomach, very reluctant to leave the table, and cleaned up the kitchen with Wen Yan.
"That one will eat the same tomorrow, you can leave it for a while!" Wen Yan said with a soft smile.
After tidying up the kitchen, Lissa went upstairs to work, and Wen Yan went to the bookstore.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the bookstore, I received a call from Xu Changwei: "I just made a book list, where are you now?" At home? I'll ask your brother to send it to you......"
Wen Yan: ......
"I just arrived at the door of Xinhua Bookstore." She said a little helplessly.
"I'll let your senior brother come over!" Xu Changwei said.
After saying that, he hung up the phone in a hurry.
Wen Yan originally thought that the person who came over would be An Jun, after all, he usually saw him being called by Xu Chang, but he hadn't seen anyone else.
Unexpectedly, the person who came over this time turned out to be Su Xiangwen......
"Is that you?"
The two men spoke in unison in surprise.
Su Xiangwen smiled and said, "It turns out that you are the old ...... Professor Xu is full of praise for his proud protΓ©gΓ©! β
Wen Yan snorted, still looking at him curiously.
"Lawyer An, Lawyer An suddenly has some urgent matters, so ask me to send you something." Su Xiangwen said with a smile.
Today he was dressed more decently, although the clothes were still old at a glance, and they were obviously washed and the color could not be seen.
Wen Yan didn't think much about it, he just thought that he was some kind of bitter master of An Jun...... even thinks that he may be a small boss who has been deceived into a huge debt in business.
It is estimated that it is still a transnational fraud case.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have found An Jun, an international lawyer, to file a lawsuit.
What's more, a few years ago can be regarded as a wild era, there is not too much foreign investment, and the owners of many large and small factories are seeking enterprise reform and foreign investment......
So she felt that her brain supplement was more and more reasonable, and she looked at Su Xiangwen with a little more regret in her eyes for a while.
Su Xiangwen only felt that this rumored little junior sister had a very rich expression.
He was a little reluctant to leave for a while: "I see that what you wrote above seems to be some high school reference books...... Is it for the younger siblings in the family? β
"No, I bought it for myself, and I plan to take the college entrance examination again." Wen Yan didn't shy away from it.
Since she decided to take the college entrance examination again, the inferiority complex that bound her in the past seems to have been broken all at once.
She can already say very calmly that she has not gone to school and has no education.
Many people may find it strange that 02 years ...... It's not just academic qualifications, it's really unreasonable for her to be so obsessed.
But after all, she is a person who has walked for nearly a century.
She went through that chain of contempt from nothing to something......
Even many times later unemployed, it was because she had no education, and she didn't do any technical work, and when she was a little older, she became a "worthless" person.
In changing jobs again and again, academic qualifications are like a nail, which is desperately pierced into her heart.
As soon as I hear it, my whole body hurts.
"You're going to take the college entrance exam?" Su Xiangwen was really surprised.
He looked at the person in surprise: "But aren't you Professor Xu's protΓ©gΓ©?" β
"The correspondence class I studied at Beijing University happened to be this year's class, and Professor Xu led ...... class."
Wen Yan smiled faintly: "Professor Xu accidentally saw the translation I made, and felt that I was worth cultivating, so he gave me more guidance." β
She said, "I want to take the graduate school entrance examination of Professor Xu, so I will take the college entrance examination!" β
This is half-true, but Su Xiangwen believes it 100%.
He smiled bitterly, and he didn't know what he was thinking, but he sighed with emotion: "Professor Xu is indeed ...... He has always been generous to his students and does not expect anything in return. β
Wen Yan smiled, but didn't answer.
Su Xiangwen said again: "However, the college entrance examination policy in the capital this year has changed slightly, and besides, you will also sign up for next year's college entrance examination this year at the earliest, right?" Although the books recommended by Professor Xu are very practical, some of them are no longer applicable to next year's policy......"
As he spoke, he enthusiastically pointed out a few books on the list: "Don't get me wrong, I, I am...... Our village is relatively remote and poor, there is no school in our village, including the nearby town, and the road from our village to the town is relatively long, so many parents, especially girls, are reluctant to send their children to school. β
Su Xiangwen pursed his lips, a little embarrassed: "After graduating from university, I returned to my hometown, cleaned up a classroom in our village, and served as a teacher myself. The children of the village, big and small, are all taught in this classroom, so ...... So I'm going to pay special attention to that information. β
He lowered his head slightly: "I hope they can all have the opportunity to get out of this poor and remote village and go to a bigger city to find a broader future!" β
"It's great!" Wen Yan said sincerely.
Su Xiangwen smiled bitterly: "It's not great, at most it's young and frivolous, I think I have a lot of ability, big enough to change the world, but in the end, it's nothing......"
"Didn't anyone succeed in the test?" Wen Yan asked.
"Of course there are ......"
Su Xiangwen looked at the person, and then smiled bitterly again: "There is a girl who was admitted to Jicheng University last year. β
"That's great, it also shows that your persistence is not meaningless, you really have the ability!" Wen Yan said.
Su Xiangwen shook his head: "But in the end, she didn't go to school......"
"Huh?" Wen Yan looked at the person in surprise: "Why?" β
"Because there is no money at home." Su Xiangwen smiled bitterly: "Our village is very poor, the per capita annual income is less than 800 yuan, and when we go to school, the tuition fee is a big problem, even if the tuition problem is solved, there are living expenses...... As soon as the child's parents heard that they needed so much money to go to school, they said that they would not agree with her to go to school, and that it would be better for her to go out and work with them if she had that time. β
His expression became more and more bitter: "Maybe her parents moved her, no matter what I said later, I would find a way for her to study, she insisted on not going, and finally went out to work in the city with her parents, I heard that life is not bad now." β
Perhaps it was this incident that shook his faith.
"So I think, perhaps, what I really need to do is not to build a simple classroom in the village, but to make money, so that everyone in the village can make money, so that they don't have to choose one way to make money when there are so many roads in front of them."
Su Xiangwen smiled bitterly and said sorry: "I'm sorry, I talked too much......"
"It's fine."
Wen Yan smiled: "I think your idea is also right." β
Su Xiangwen laughed a few times, looking helpless: "I don't think you are really good at comforting people." β
"That's probably because I'm not comforting you!" Wen Yan said.
Su Xiang nodded and hummed: "That...... Need my help recommending a reference book for you? β
"Yes!" Wen Yan did not refuse.
It's not that I believe in Su Xiangwen much, but I think it's not bad to have one more alternative.
The two of them walked into the bookstore one after the other, and Su Xiangwen was very serious about helping people choose reference books, and even found those listed on Xu Changwei's book list.
"You want to buy all the liberal arts and sciences?" Su Xiangwen looked at the pile of books that were well-written and reasonable, and couldn't help but be curious.
Wen Yan snorted: "I'm not sure if I'll choose liberal arts or science in the end, so I'll probably have to see which one is easier for me first?" β
"Aren't you going to work as a translator in the future?" Su Xiang asked.
Wen Yan shook his head: "Maybe I don't plan to, maybe I will do a side job." β
She will definitely do business in the future.
Translation will probably be a hobby, just pass the time and make some money by the way, just do it full-time!
"Does Professor Xu know about your decision?" Su Xiangwen asked with a smile, faintly gloating.
Wen Yan blinked his eyes: "I know!" He was so angry! also deliberately took one of his most proud protΓ©gΓ©s as an example, saying how unscrupulous the other party was and how much it hurt his heart. β
Su Xiangwen: ......
He couldn't tell why, he had an illusion, as if the person Wen Yan was talking about was him.
He was a little speechless, so he could only deal with it with a smile, and after helping Wen Yan finish picking out the book, he found the topic again: "I have some notes that I made before, and some of the more common exercises that I summarized by myself, do you want to take a look?" β
After speaking, he couldn't help scratching his head, and said a little embarrassed: "However, my home is far away from the capital, and it is estimated that it will be later to give it to you......"
"Okay!" Wen Yan said: "Then I will thank you in advance!" β
Su Xiangwen took the opportunity and said, "Then we ...... Leave each other's contact information? β
He had a little restraint on his face, and was looked at by Wen Yan with a smile, and he lowered his head very embarrassedly.
"Okay!"
Wen Yan smiled and stretched out his hand: "Give me your phone!" I'll enter the number! β
"I, I don't have a mobile phone......" Su Xiangwen was momentarily embarrassed.
"Then ......" Wen Yan was also surprised, but she quickly looked as usual, and took a pen and paper: "I'll write the number to you!" β
"Thank you!"
Su Xiangwen was very grateful and embarrassed.
Wen Yan smiled and said that it was okay, and after writing down the number, he handed it to someone.
After the two of them separated at the door of the bookstore, Wen Yan left in a chic manner, but Su Xiangwen looked at the direction where the person's back disappeared and did not come back to his senses for a long time.
He raised his hand and gently stroked the phone number paper that Wen Yan handed him, and finally left with relief.
As soon as Wen Yan got home, he heard Xu Changwei scolding.
It was no one else who was scolded, it was An Jun, who was said to have something......
"Teacher, do you really regard this place as your home now, and you will come back after class?" Wen Yan snorted twice, as if he was really dissatisfied.
Xu Changwei choked, glared at An Jun, and then looked at Wen Yan with some embarrassment: "That, ...... today"
He hesitated, and finally only held back one sentence: "Got the book list?" β
"Hmm."
Wen Yan shook the book in his hand, and then shook the vegetables in his other hand: "I took so many books to the vegetable market, and I was sinking to death!" β
"I seem to ...... Didn't write that much for you, did you? Xu Chang didn't reach out and take the book, and he didn't say it with certainty.
Wen Yan snorted: "Some of them were recommended to me by the little brother who sent the book list, he said that he was more experienced, and said that he would send me the notes he made in the future......"
She seemed to be speaking defenselessly, with a shallow smile on her face, but she actually kept observing the faces of Xu Changwei and An Jun back and forth.
"No way!"
Xu Changwei was really excited, and was about to say something, but was stopped by An Jun: "Teacher, young people's affairs, just let young people make their own decisions, you are old, don't follow blindly involved!" β
"!"
Xu Changwei couldn't help but burst into foul mouth, and was about to pull An Jun away and continue to say something to Wen Yan when Kalisha happened to come back from outside.
She frowned slightly: "Why are you here again?" β
Xu Changwei choked, and it took a while to calm down, take a deep breath, and laugh hard: "The water pipe at home burst, and the furniture and beds in the house are all soaked. β
After he finished speaking, he waited for Kalisa to refuse.
Unexpectedly, the other party just let out a faint sigh, so he ran to the kitchen and asked Wen Yan what he was eating.
Wen Yan said with a smile: "I bought some green vegetables, as well as meat, and we ate steamed vegetables in the evening, with the cold fritters left in the morning, it was delicious!" β
Alyssa cheered happily, and then helped Wen Yan choose the dish.
