Chapter 218: Firmness and Confusion
A week later, on Sunday, at half past twelve o'clock.
Lu You rarely went to accompany his girlfriend, but returned home.
Lu You changed into slippers at the entrance and walked inside, shouting, "Mom, I'm back." ”
"When you come back, wash your hands and get ready to eat."
Lu You came to the restaurant and looked at the kitchen, only to see Shen Yuyin wearing an apron around his waist, standing in front of the gas stove and working, and Lu Jianyan was also helping beside him.
As for the two aunts in the family, they took Lu Jingshu back to the mansion a few days ago to accompany a few old people
"How many times have you said that you can't empty the pot, it will burn the pot."
"Stir-fry greens, don't put too much oil."
"Turn on a small fire, otherwise the vegetables will be fried."
"Look, you see, you've been told to turn on a low fire, and this green vegetable has shown signs of burning."
Shen Yuyin couldn't bear it anymore, so he immediately gave Lu Jianyan a kick and scolded: "Get out of you!" If you don't fry the vegetables, you won't fry them, and you'll be blind here. One more word, I'll blow your dog's head with a spatula! ”
Lu You silently turned around and walked downstairs. Lu Jianyan and Shen Yuyin's daily bickering, he is no longer surprised. It's not even called bickering, it should be called flirting between old husbands and wives.
Back in the room, Lu You put down his schoolbag, took off his heavy down jacket, picked up the mobile phone on the bedside and sent Tang Wan a message of safety.
Ly: I'm home.
Wan: OK
Wan: Wait for half past two to go to Fu Gui Yuan?
Ly: I'm fine.
Wan: I'll see you at half past two.
Wan: (*)*)... :* love you~
Before he had a girlfriend, this kind of expression Lu You looked so disgusting. Now that I'm with Tang Wan, every time I look at it, the corners of my mouth can't help but rise, and I can't wait to let her send a few more.
Sitting on the edge of the bed and smirking for a while, Lu You came back to his senses, and suddenly remembered that he still had lunch, so he hurriedly ran upstairs.
When he arrived at the restaurant, Shen Yuyin happened to serve the last dish.
"It was really on time. Eat with your own soup with chopsticks. ”
Lu You took his usual porcelain bowl and lifted the lid of the casserole, and a strong but unsmoking smell of mutton and a faint fragrance of radish came to his nose.
Eat mutton in winter to nourish blood and warm the stomach.
Filling the bowl with a full of mutton and clear soup, Lu You carefully picked it up and walked to the seat to take a seat, and then feasted.
Shen Yuyin scooped up a spoonful of clear soup, took a small sip, stretched out his hand to the other side of the dining table, and said, "When you go out to find Tang Wan, remember to bring that thermos bucket, which contains the soup I left for her." ”
Lu You picked up a piece of mutton with skin, crawled around in the saucer, and asked, "Do you know that I will go to her later?" ”
"Is it hard to guess what the love brain thinks?"
"Makes sense."
Lu You nodded approvingly, and then asked, "You told me to come back at noon today, what are you doing?" ”
Shen Yuyin picked out the medicinal residue in the bowl with chopsticks and said, "I found someone to find out about your competition these days. According to your results, you should be stable into the national training team and get a guaranteed place, right? ”
"If nothing happens, it's nine out of ten."
"Have you ever thought about which university you plan to go to, what major you want to study, and what kind of industry you want to engage in in in the future?"
"I've thought about it for a long time."
Lu You replied without thinking: "Go to Capital University, study mathematics and applied mathematics, strive for master's and doctoral studies, and engage in mathematics research after graduation." ”
Shen Yuyin never expected that Lu You really had a clear goal for the future, and all the educational rhetoric that she had prepared in her mind turned into useless work, and she felt like a clown.
"You...... Can you say that you haven't thought about it and pretend to be very confused about the future? Otherwise, I always feel that I have spent a week reading the education book, and it is all in vain. ”
Lu You stopped his chopsticks and looked at Shen Yuyin speechlessly.
"You're outrageous! I've only seen people who are crammed for exams, and it's the first time I've seen this education child cramming. ”
Rao is Shen Yuyin is cheeky as a city wall, and he was also a little ashamed of what Lu You said.
"Oh, I didn't expect it! At first, I thought that I would wait until your senior year of high school to discuss this issue with you, so that you would have a chance to be sent before you were halfway through high school. ”
"I know my business, so let your heart put a hundred hearts."
Lu You drank the mutton soup in the bowl, got up to serve the rice, and said, "If I need your help, I will naturally speak." ”
Lu Jianyan was very satisfied with his son's consciousness and said, "Since you said so, your mother and I won't ask too much." When you enter the national training team and sign a contract with Capital University, I will give you a big gift. ”
"A big gift?"
Lu You turned his head sideways and asked curiously, "What kind of gift?" ”
"You'll know then."
……
The other side.
After lunch.
Zhao Huijuan cut the peeled apple in half, and then handed Tang Wan a piece.
"Here, dessert."
"Okay, thank you."
Tang Wan stretched out her hand to take it, and immediately opened her mouth to nibble off a third, leaving a neat row of tooth marks on the apple.
"Did the school send a notice about the date of departure?"
"I said it this morning."
Tang Wan swallowed the apple flesh in her mouth and said, "Depart on the 22nd, take the high-speed train at half past eight in the morning, and arrive at half past four in the afternoon." ”
"Isn't it exam number 26? Why did it pass four days earlier? ”
"The teacher said that he should go over a few days earlier to adapt to the environment to prevent the exam from being unaccustomed and affecting the state."
"That's right. After all, it is an exam in an unfamiliar environment, and there must always be a buffer time, and it is almost three or four days. ”
Zhao Huijuan threw away the apple core in her hand and continued to ask, "How sure are you about the exam?" ”
"How so?"
Tang Wan leaned back in the chair, and after a little thought, said, "Look at your luck." If the question hits my strengths, it's fine. ”
Tang Wan's part of expertise is geometry. If the geometry type of problem is simple and can find ideas at a glance, she has no advantage at all.
"What about Xiao Lu? How's he doing? ”
"You don't have to worry about him."
Tang Wan took another bite of the apple and said vaguely: "As long as you know, I can't beat him if I tie him up." ”
Tang Wan thought for a moment and added, "Of course, it's limited to mathematics. ”
If I were in bed, I would be able to suck him dry by myself!
……
In the distance, Lu You, who was eating normally, inexplicably felt a chill piercing his spinal cord, and the whole person was uncontrollably excited.
Shen Yuyin saw him stop his chopsticks and asked suspiciously, "Why don't you eat it?" Is my food hard to eat? ”
"Nope."
Lu You shook his head and said, "I thought of something. ”
"What's the matter?"
"Mom, how were your grades in high school?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the table suddenly froze.
Shen Yuyin slowly turned his head and said expressionlessly: "Son, Nepal has said a word, I think it makes sense. 'When you stare into the abyss, the abyss is staring at you'. People who know too many things don't live long. ”
Lu You hesitated for a moment and said, "Mom, is there a possibility that the person who said this is called Nietzsche." ”
Shen Yuyin was so angry that he slapped the table and said loudly: "In my worldview, he is called Nepal, what's the problem!" ”
"No problem, as long as you're happy, he can call him Brother Ni."
Looking at Shen Yuyin, who looked like a fried lion, Lu You chose to back down very well, and he was so bored that he didn't dare to say more than half a word.
……
Back to the Tang family's living room.
Zhao Huijuan suddenly smirked when she saw Tang Wan, a little confused. But she had more important things to say, so she put the doubts behind her.
"Wanwan, if you get a place to apply, have you ever thought about which school to go to and what major to study?"
Tang Wan was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at the apple core in her hand, not knowing how to answer. Zhao Huijuan didn't urge, and waited quietly for her to think.
There was silence for a long time, until the remaining flesh on the apple core was almost completely yellow, and Tang Wan spoke: "I didn't think about it. ”
"Let me ask another question. Is there anything in particular you'd like to do? That is, ideals, dreams and the like. ”
Ideals and dreams, Tang Wan must have.
When she was in elementary school, she would watch TV dramas, and she always liked to fantasize that she was the heroine of TV dramas, and wanted to be an actress with outstanding acting skills in the future.
But when she grew up, she found that a little person like her, who only has appearance and no background, is estimated to be eaten and wiped clean in two days after entering the entertainment industry, and there is not even any scum left.
When she was in junior high school, Tang Wan changed her mind and wanted to be a surgeon who saved lives.
However, after being bullied, she found that she did not have that spirit of fraternity and could not treat all lives equally.
There was even a time when she felt extremely dark that some people should not live in this world.
And now, Tang Wan's considerations have changed again.
"I think that every day I lie in bed in the future, the money in my bank card can grow by 1,000 yuan on its own."
What is taking advantage of the youth, working hard and hard, the days will get sweeter and sweeter, all of them are hypocritical, but they are just the big pie painted by ZBJ for the workers.
Only by giving up involution and collectively rotting is the best choice for contemporary people.
Zhao Huijuan frowned, slapped Tang Wan on the shoulder, and said angrily: "I'm asking you about your ideals, not asking you to make a wish!" Be practical! ”
Tang Wan pursed her lips and muttered in a low voice, "What's wrong with what I said?" It's totally achievable! ”
"What did you say?"
"No, nothing!"
Tang Wan hurriedly raised her voice and said perfunctorily: "My ideal is to find a good job after graduation, and then save money to buy a car and a house, and be filial to you and my father." ”
Listening to her seemingly serious, but actually uncaring words, Zhao Huijuan sighed and said helplessly: "Wanwan, I talked to you about this topic, not to say that I want to put pressure on you or anything."
I hope you realize from now on that you are no longer a child, you can no longer blindly study for the purpose of grades, and it is time to think about how to go in the future. ”
"But I really don't know what to do in the future."
Tang Wan lowered her eyes, and her tone was full of confusion.
"Since elementary school, my teacher has told me to study hard, and those with good grades have three good student awards and small gifts, so I can get a lot of awards and exercise books every semester.
When I arrived at junior high school, the teacher said that I should study hard and strive to be admitted to a key high school in the high school entrance examination, so I was in the top ten in the city, and many people praised me for being amazing.
In the previous year, on the first day of Chunhua, the head teacher told us that we had worked hard for more than 1,000 days to be admitted to the ideal university.
So far, in the past ten years of study, more than 100 teachers, including you, Tang Jing and my father, all want me to get good grades.
But no one has ever said what I got good grades for. All this time, I have been like a puppet, following the route you have set.
How could I be able to do it now that I am suddenly asked to be independent and let me plan for the future on my own? ”
Zhao Huijuan was speechless for a while, and then she realized that the good girl in her family seemed to be happy and happy, but she had no heart or lungs, but in fact, she also had unknown difficulties.
Tang Wan stood up silently, threw the apple remains in her hand into the trash, and walked to the room without saying a word.
When she was about to walk out of the living room, she stopped again, turned to Zhao Huijuan and said, "Mom, I'm not blaming you when I say this.
On the contrary, I am grateful to you. If it weren't for your education, let alone any ideals and dreams, I wouldn't even have the qualifications to discuss the choice of a future.
It's just that I need a few days to think about future plans before I can give you an answer. ”
Zhao Huijuan looked at Tang Wan's eyes, her eyes were extremely soft.
"Well, I see, you can think about it. If there is anything you want to ask, you can always come to me. ”
"I will."
