Chapter 23: Plans can't keep up with change

Gu Qi couldn't imagine that she still had such a good consciousness, and raised his eyebrows in surprise.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Yes, it's definitely good to learn more. Knowledge is not only the best power, but it can also change destiny. ”

When Chen Xingling heard the word "fate", he couldn't help but think of the tragic fate of the heroine of the original book.

Stay in this big mansion all your life, from morning to night, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, you will always be entangled in miscellaneous trivial housework, and you will not be idle all day.

In fact, she never thought about changing, but because of her own narrow-mindedness, lack of courage to change, and her fierce and vicious mother-in-law, she had to succumb to the status quo.

On the other hand, she loves Gu Qi very deeply, and is willing to be the woman behind him, help him guard the house, and help him take care of the elderly and children, so she has been enduring humiliation and persevering, and finally can't stand it and commits suicide.

The current Chen Xingling naturally would not succumb to such a bad fate at will!

Her life can only be firmly controlled in her own hands!

Chen Xingling asked curiously: "Is it difficult for you to go to university?" What majors are there? ”

Gu Qi shook his head indifferently: "I didn't resume the college entrance examination at that time, I skipped elementary school and junior high school, and when I was about to graduate from high school, I made an exception and went to the shipyard." My file says I graduated from high school and didn't go to college. The college entrance examination was just resumed a while ago, and many people didn't have time to participate. It has been officially announced that it will be held again in July next summer, and the future college entrance examination will be held in July. ”

"Oh?" Chen Xingling couldn't help but ask, "Then can I participate?" ”

These words stopped Gu Qi and he was also surprised.

"You...... Want to take the college entrance exam? Go to Yucheng University? ”

Yucheng is one of the largest cities in the south, with a long history and rich cultural heritage. Because of its unique port location, there were many overseas Chinese who used to study or do business abroad, and it was once one of the important bases for the development of education and literature.

In the past, Yucheng University was once a famous university in the whole country, and its site was in the center of Yucheng, and almost everyone in Yucheng recognized it.

Although Chen Xingling's hometown is on the remote seaside, he has been to the city two or three times, and he is no stranger to Yucheng University.

"I've only seen it from afar, but I'm still quite yearning for it."

Gu Qi's shipyard is not far from Yucheng University, and I have heard colleagues mention it before, saying that spring enrollment will be carried out after the Chinese New Year.

In addition, the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination has spread all over the streets, and many high school students who have gone to the countryside or dropped out of school or are in school are eager to take the test.

His eldest sister Gu Xuan was planning to take the college entrance examination in July, but she was still very hesitant and didn't know how to review and prepare.

Not only that, when his younger brother Ah Yi comes back, he will persuade him to give it a try next year, if not, he will continue to take the test the year after tomorrow, and he can't give up such a great opportunity.

When Gu Qi heard his wife say that she longed for college, he was a little incredulous.

"You...... Want to go to college? It's true? ”

When he got married, he didn't have the opportunity to test her knowledge reserves, but he only heard his eldest brother joke that she was not serious about studying at that time, and often failed exams, and the junior high school graduation certificate could only be obtained after a few re-examinations.

Chen Xingling lowered his eyes and made a look of regret.

"In the past, I was too naughty, I always felt that reading was too boring, and I missed a lot of good opportunities to learn. Later, when I saw that you could study abroad, I was happy for you, but I was worried that the distance between me and you would get farther and farther. So as long as I have free time at night, I secretly study, and occasionally I go to bed late at night. I have read and studied all the books on this shelf, even the most difficult math I insist on self-study, and I have already learned the content of the texts. ”

Gu Qi looked at her in a slight stunned manner, his face was cold and calm, but he was already a little moved in his heart.

Over the years, he has taken care of his studies and promotions, and his whole family has been abandoned to her, and the children have also been thrown to her, not only have he not taken good care of her, but he doesn't even know that she is under so much pressure in her heart.

Just in order not to distance herself from him, she studied hard for more than three years!

What a lot of pressure and perseverance does it take for a person who doesn't like to learn to persist in self-study for so long!

His heart moved freely, and he put down the pen in his hand and gently held her still red and swollen hand.

"Xing'er, you and I are husband and wife. As long as there is no distance between our hearts, nothing can separate us or pull us apart. ”

Chen Xingling's eyes were full of small red hearts, and he nodded and nodded busily.

Wow~~ This is the first time that the handsome pot husband has taken the initiative to confess!

So, she was so dizzy that she almost floated, and then what Gu Qi said her ears heard but didn't put half of the sentence in her head, until Gu Qi thought about letting her go to the next class to study, and finally came back to her senses.

"Transfer? Where to transfer? Chen Xingling asked, "Is there a middle school in Yucheng?" ”

Gu Qi explained: "There is a 'Chongwen Middle School' in the city, which is located by the moat in the south of the city. Do you recognize? ”

Chen Xingling: "Oh? After a while, he blurted out: "I know, I studied there for two years in junior high school." ”

Chengnan is far away from the small fishing village where they live, and if it weren't for the fact that several brothers took turns rowing to take her to and from school, she would definitely not have been able to persevere.

"That middle school still has a high school." Gu Qi explained: "It's also a two-year system. Two of the apprentices I took with me graduated from there. ”

Chen Xingling immediately understood, and said, "Okay, I'll go to the second class of high school after I go back." ”

"Can it be done?" Gu Qi was a little apprehensive and reminded: "If you are taking liberal arts, you must not only take the examination of Chinese, mathematics, but also politics and history. ”

Chen Xingling grinned and said, "No problem! If you don't feel at ease, you can find a question to test me, and if I still lack something, you can help me with the revision! ”

"Hmm." Gu Qi was very happy to agree, "I don't know how the enrollment results of Yucheng University are, I'll find someone to inquire when I go back." ”

She wanted to continue studying, and he definitely raised his hands in agreement.

The ancestors of the Gu family were all Confucian merchants, who had been running shops and doing business for generations, and had always attached importance to the education of their children's younger generations.

His father was no exception, insisting that his four children study, and before he died, he did not forget to tell him that he must let his two sisters read more children's books and never be illiterate.

Chen Xingling turned around and poured him a glass of water and handed it to him.

"You get busy first, and then come and help me tutor when you're done."

Gu Qi nodded.

Perhaps because of his excellent mood, he unconsciously wrote much faster, and it took less than half an hour to complete the rest of the drawings.

He carefully checked it twice, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong, he quickly rolled up the drawing and put it in a paper tube on the side.

Then, he cleaned up his desk, took a high school Chinese textbook from the shelf, and turned around.

"Xing'er, you canβ€”"

I saw that Chen Xingling had already fallen asleep wrapped in a quilt, breathing evenly and steadily, and it seemed that he had been asleep for a long time.

Gu Qi: "......"

He closed the cap of the fountain pen, got up lightly, smoothed the corner of the Chinese textbook, and stuffed it back in.
