Chapter 166

How would Liang Feng know the answer to this question?

As for the student who had informed him before, no one knew where he had gone.

Liang Rui entered the office with a nervous heart. Liang Feng was afraid that he would lose control. He also knew how hard he had worked in the last few months. He was afraid that if he really failed the exam, he would have a bad temper again and cause a scene in the office.

So I followed him in.

However, as soon as they entered, Teacher Lin was sorting out the test papers and scores. Seeing Liang Rui's timid look, she waved, "Come here."

Liang Rui didn't dare to do that. After hesitating for a long time, he finally went over. The first thing he said was, "Teacher, if I don't get into No. 1 High School, please don't scold me. I really tried my best."

In the last two and a half months, he was almost extorting himself to death.

But, if you still fail the exam.

Liang Rui just admitted that he was unlucky. After graduation, he went to roast sweet potatoes.

"no."

Teacher Lin couldn't help but smile at his nervousness. "You've been admitted to No. 1 High School. Not only that, your score is quite high. Now you have more options."

"What?"

Liang Rui said subconsciously.

"Technical secondary school." Teacher Lin handed over a piece of paper. "Your scores are good enough for both the Finance College and the Sewing Machine Factory Technical School."

In case Liang Rui didn't understand this, she also explained, "These days, the scores for technical secondary school entrance exams are no different, and you don't know if you can get into university after completing high school. But if you study for two years at a technical secondary school and graduate, you will definitely be able to find a job that will accept you."

"So, do you want to consider it?"

Teacher Lin really treats Liang Rui as half his own child, which is why he recommended him like this. Liang Rui is not like Liang Feng, who can concentrate on studying. Liang Feng will definitely be able to get into university after graduating from high school. At the very least, based on his grades, he can still get a recommendation place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University.

But Liang Rui is different. This kid was born with a bad knack for learning. Even after he finally got the hang of it, he was still haphazard in his efforts.

Without a firm grasp on the subject, I had no idea whether I could persevere through the two years of high school, let alone whether I could even go to university.

That's why Teacher Lin recommended Liang Rui to attend a technical secondary school and assign him a job after graduating in two years. Liang Rui might not be good at studying, but he definitely knows how to handle things. After graduation, such a child is naturally good at handling things.

After hearing this, Liang Rui was stunned for a moment, "I want to take the high school entrance exam and go to college."

"I know." Teacher Lin looked at him, "Liang Rui, are you sure you can persist for another two years like you did in the high school entrance exam?"

Liang Rui really doesn't know this.

He doesn't speak.

"So, take the advice your teacher gave you and discuss it with your parents when you get home, okay?"

“No matter what decision you make, the teacher will support you in the end.”

Liang Rui took the paper and asked, "Teacher, did I get into No. 1 High School?"

Teacher Lin nodded. "He passed the exam. He was admitted despite having the lowest score."

As soon as these words fell, Liang Rui breathed a sigh of relief, "That's fine."

"It's precisely because you got into No. 1 High School that I suggest you go to a technical secondary school. While you might not be able to go to university after two years of high school, it's different. After two years of studying, you're guaranteed a job."

Liang Rui pinched the paper and said, "I understand."

"I'll discuss it with my family when I get home."

"By the way, teacher, did Liang Feng pass the exam?"

Liang Feng also has an exam, so he came to participate.

"First."

These two words fully demonstrate Liang Feng's ability. After the departure of Jiang Nanfang, the academic genius, Liang Feng finally stopped being the perpetual runner-up. He successfully advanced to the top of his grade, but this first place was not like the previous Jiang Nanfang's first place that was so far ahead of the others.

"Then why don't you recommend him to go to a technical secondary school?"

Liang Rui tried to hold back, but couldn't help but ask.

Teacher Lin subconsciously said, "Based on Liang Feng's qualifications, he will definitely go to university in the future."

As soon as these words fell, Liang Rui's face darkened, "I can read it too."

“I don’t want to go to technical secondary school.”

"I want to go to high school and take the college entrance examination."

After saying this, he threw the paper on Teacher Lin’s desk and ran out.

Obviously, what Teacher Lin said before had stimulated Liang Rui's self-esteem.

Jiangnan Fang can go to university.

Liang Feng can also go to university.

The only exception was Liang Rui. Liang Rui had clearly scored high in the exam, but his teacher suggested that he go to a technical secondary school.

This is looking down on him.

Liang Rui ran away, so Liang Feng naturally couldn't stay. He hurriedly apologized to Teacher Lin and chased after him.

After running for a long time, I finally found Liang Rui at the door.

Liang Rui broke off a branch and scribbled something on the ground out of boredom. Liang Feng couldn't understand what he was saying, so he gasped and called out, "Liang Rui, Teacher Lin doesn't mean to look down on you. She just made the most suitable recommendation for you based on your personality."

Liang Rui, "I know."

He didn't even look up and continued drawing with the branch. "But even though I know, I'm still a little angry."

"Liang Feng, you know what I have done in the last few months. I worked so hard just to get into a high school and go to university in the future."

"But Teacher Lin told me to give up studying at No. 1 High School and go to a technical secondary school instead."

Liang Feng's scalp tingled at his questioning. He couldn't answer at all and could only whisper, "Why don't we go home first? Go back and ask Auntie for her opinion?"

In Liang Feng's opinion, there is no problem in this world that his aunt cannot solve.

Liang Rui hummed, broke a branch, threw it high up, and finally it was placed on the branch of a big tree.

Instead, there is a feeling of going back and forth from where you came from.

After finishing all this, Liang Rui went home with Liang Feng. Jiang Meishu knew that Liang Rui would have his high school entrance exam results today, so she didn't even leave the house. She asked Comrade Wang to boil a pot of mung bean water, which was now chilled in the well.

The weather in early July is the hottest in the capital.

Jiang Meishu was worried about Liang Rui's grades, so she had no mood to watch TV. She paced around the house, fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan.

Liang Rui and Liang Feng came in at this time.

As soon as she saw them, Jiang Meishu's eyes lit up, "How is it?"

She ran over.

Liang Rui looked unhappy.

Liang Feng too.

Jiang Meishu immediately had a bad guess. She comforted Liang Rui, "It doesn't matter if you didn't do well in the exam. I've talked to your dad. At worst, we can just repeat the high school entrance exam for a year and then take the entrance exam for a high school next year."

Liang Rui didn't expect Jiang Meishu to even think of his escape route. He was stunned for a moment, and then he said sullenly, "I passed the exam."

"What?"

Jiang Meishu was at a loss.

"I got into No. 1 High School."

Jiang Meishu was stunned. She groaned, "You got into No. 1 High School, why are you still so depressed?"

She happily walked over to Liang Rui, holding his face and tearing him apart. "Smile, kid! You finally got into the school of your choice. That's a good thing, right? Why do you still look so unhappy?"

Liang Rui was so upset by her that he felt extremely complicated. He sounded a little aggrieved, "Although I was admitted to No. 1 High School, Teacher Lin suggested that I not go to No. 1 High School and go to a technical secondary school instead."

"What?"

The smile on Jiang Meishu's face disappeared immediately. "What technical secondary school? Impossible, Liang Rui, you can't go to a technical secondary school."

"You have to go to high school so you can get into college in the future."

Others didn't know it, but she didn't know it either. In the 1970s and 1980s, vocational school graduates were indeed popular. After two years of vocational school, they could get a job guaranteed by the government.

But not in the future.

In the future, academic qualifications are king. Not to mention technical secondary school, even junior college is not enough. Everyone is desperately trying to get academic qualifications, such as undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral degrees.

Roll it as high as you can.

The technical secondary schools that are popular these days will be eliminated in the future.

Jiang Meishu was afraid that Liang Rui would be persuaded by Teacher Lin and go to a technical secondary school, so she immediately became serious and said, "Liang Rui, don't even think about it. You have to go to high school and take the college entrance examination in this life."

"Liang Rui from the Liang family is destined to be a college student. My Liang Rui is a natural-born college student."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liang Rui's eyes turned red. He didn't dare, nor did he want Jiang Meishu to see him cry, so he could only squat down, hug his head, and his shoulders trembled for a long time.

"Teacher Lin said that my qualifications are not suitable for high school and college entrance exams."

Jiang Meishu suddenly became angry, "She farted."

"What's wrong with you? You study so hard and you're so smart. If you're not suitable for college, who is?"

"Don't listen to her. We don't want to go to technical secondary school. If we do go to school, we'll go to No. 1 High School and then go to university."

She half bent over and pulled Liang Rui's shoulders to pull him up. "You are perfect for college."

"Liang Rui, you are a college student."

At this moment, Jiang Meishu was building up Liang Rui's confidence, and she was also planting an invisible seed in Liang Rui's heart.

Take root and sprout one day in the future.

Jiang Meishu didn't know that the seed she planted would grow into a towering tree in the future. Whenever Liang Rui was confused and faced a choice, he would remember this day.

On this day, Jiang Meishu told him in an extremely firm tone, you are a college student, you are born to go to college.

Liang Rui's beliefs that had collapsed into pieces were picked up and put together piece by piece by Jiang Meishu.

Give it to him in its entirety.

Liang Rui's eyes were red. "But I'm not good at studying."

"He's not determined and he loves to play."

Jiang Meishu looked at him with a smile, "But you got into No. 1 High School."

"You're amazing! You've used these last few months to get into No. 1 High School."

"Liang Rui, you are really amazing."

Liang Rui didn't dare to look at Jiang Meishu's smiling face. He was afraid that he would cry. He forced himself to turn his head and look outside. Where Jiang Meishu couldn't see, a tear rolled down from the corner of his eye.

“What if I fail the exam in the future?”

Jiang Meishu thought for a moment and said, "There is nothing you can't do if you want to do it."

"If you really can't pass the exam," she said in a more serious tone. "Liang Rui, our family is well-off and can afford to support you in repeating the school for three to five years. If you still can't pass the exam, then just come back."

"Go sell roasted sweet potatoes. I'll buy you a shop so you can have business without being exposed to the wind and sun."

"Liang Rui, you are still young. Although studying is the quickest way for you, it is not your only way. So don't be afraid. Just keep moving forward. Your dad and I will be watching you from behind, waiting for you, and supporting you."

When Liang Rui heard this, he could no longer hold back his tears.

Jiang Meishu accompanied him in crying. Seeing this, Liang's mother next to him slowly retreated, not forgetting to call Liang Feng out as well.

Waited outside.

She sighed, "You've all worked hard during this period, especially Liang Rui, who has put in a lot of effort. It's normal for him to feel mentally broken."

She thought for a moment and said, "Liang Feng, you spend a lot of time with him on weekdays. When the time comes, think of a way to enlighten him more."

Liang Feng nodded, "I know."

While Liang's mother was still worried, Jiang Meishu had already comforted Liang Rui. At least on the surface, that was the case. In the evening, Jiang Meishu told Liang Qiurun about Liang Rui's situation.

Liang Qiurun was silent for a long time before he whispered, "You did a great job."

"Jiang Jiang, if you hadn't discovered it in time," he said solemnly, "Liang Rui might have taken the wrong path."

For a teenager, any action at a crossroads in life can change his life.

Liang Qiurun was very glad that Jiang Meishu was there when he was away. Jiang Meishu fulfilled his parental responsibilities for him. Perhaps he also saw the importance of it. Liang Qiurun thought for a moment and said, "I'll spare half a day tomorrow morning and go to school with you, and take Liang Rui with us."

Jiang Meishu, "Do you mean to take Liang Rui with you to apologize to Teacher Lin?"

"Yes," Liang Qiurun said, "Teacher Lin's intentions were good. At least it was for Liang Rui's own good. But it hurt Liang Rui's pride. He left Teacher Lin and walked away. No matter what, it was not right."

Jiang Meishu shook her head. She saw through it all. "It's impossible to ask Liang Rui to apologize to Teacher Lin."

"Liang Rui has an arrogant personality and a strong sense of self-esteem. Teacher Lin has already hurt him by asking him to apply for a technical secondary school."

"I know." Liang Qiurun whispered, "We parents want to apologize to Teacher Lin for all her hard work for Liang Rui over the past two years. We are also grateful for her advice and suggestions for Liang Rui. However, our parents' final opinion is to respect our child's enrollment in high school."

"I agree with you." Liang Qiurun's deep eyes showed a hint of deep thought and foresight. "Jiang Jiang, in this day and age, a technical secondary school isn't enough."

"We have them all in our unit. All the real technical backbones are university graduates."

"Even though they've graduated from college now, you know what? The 1968 batch of college students still learned something in school. Even if it was only for one year, it was enough for them to come to the factory and crush others."

"So Liang Rui will definitely go to high school and take the college entrance exam in the future."

"Even me, too."

Jiang Meishu exclaimed, "You're going to take the exam again in the future?"

Liang Qiurun smiled, his eyes soft and gentle, "If I have the chance, I'd like to improve my education. When you have nothing else to do in your life, it never hurts to read more."

Jiang Meishu admired him so much.

"How about if there's a chance in the future, you can come along?"

Jiang Meishu shook her head, "No, no."

She was driven crazy by the college entrance examination in her previous life, so why should she take it again in this life?

Is she tired of living?

Jiang Meishu felt that it was not easy to start a new life. Of course, she wanted to just lie down and do nothing. It would be pretty good if she could turn over and make some money from time to time.

As for letting her work harder and take the college entrance examination again.

sorry.

Can't do it.

Seeing her resistance, Liang Qiurun stopped talking about this topic. However, the next day, he did what he said and early in the morning, he and his wife took Liang Rui to the Meat Processing Factory Middle School.

Liang Rui was still a little resistant.

Liang Qiurun was very calm. "One should always finish what he started. Go get your transcript and talk to Teacher Lin. She taught you for two years after all."

Liang Rui was stubborn and said, "I won't!"

Seeing that the father and son were about to quarrel again, Jiang Meishu pinched her brows with a headache, "Liang Rui, we are going to school to pack our things and visit Teacher Lin."

"Didn't you say she wanted you to take the technical secondary school entrance exam? Let's go find him today and tell him in front of her that your parents support you in going to high school and taking the college entrance exam."

"Would you like to come with me?"

It's clearly the same thing, but when Jiang Meishu says it, it feels completely different.

Liang Rui, who was initially somewhat resistant, hesitated for a moment before changing his tone, "Did you and my dad go to school to vent your anger on me?"

Jiang Meishu glanced at him, "What else? If we as parents don't avenge our children, what are we doing here?"

Liang Rui was stunned for a moment, and he said uncomfortably, "Then I'll reluctantly go with you, but let me make it clear first, I'm just here to watch the fun."

Jiang Meishu pulled his arm and said, "Of course, of course. Today, just watch me and your dad take action."

Liang Rui raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Then I'll go ride a bike."

"No, your dad is driving. He even took a leave of absence, saying he wants to see you through. He'll take you to Roulianchang Middle School and pick you up after you graduate."

As soon as he said this, Liang Rui's previously hard attitude towards Liang Qiurun softened. After he got in the car, Jiang Meishu and Liang Qiurun deliberately stayed behind. She whispered to Liang Qiurun, "Don't be so forceful next time. Speak more gently, not in a commanding tone. Liang Rui will cooperate with you."

She didn't understand why Liang Qiurun, who was usually a very gentle person, was so serious in front of Liang Rui.

Liang Qiurun did not refute. He just nodded softly. He had to admit that in some aspects, Jiang Meishu was much better than him.

When they arrived at school, there were actually not many students there, and only the teachers were still doing their end-of-term summaries.

When Teacher Lin saw Liang Qiurun, Jiang Meishu and the others coming over, she was surprised and stood up. "Director Liang, Comrade Jiang, why are you here?"

Jiang Meishu acted as a mediator. She smiled and pulled Liang Rui's wrist, "Didn't it this child who told us that you suggested he go to a technical secondary school?"

"Teacher Lin, I know you analyzed the child's personality and recommended him to attend a technical secondary school for his own good."

These words made Liang Rui a little unhappy. He frowned. Jiang Meishu pinched his wrist and signaled him not to be anxious.

Sure enough, the tone changed in the next sentence.

"However, I discussed it with Lao Liang. We're not in a rush for our child to start working early, so we'd rather he continue to study. We don't ask for anything else. We just hope that while he's still young and doesn't have the ability to discern, he can gain more experience and knowledge in a relatively simple environment like school, so he can avoid danger."

This is what parents are.

A parent who always considers the future of their children.

When Teacher Lin heard this, she was stunned for a moment, "Since you have made up your mind, that's fine."

She smiled and said, "I just recommended it to Liang Rui. I didn't mean to make the decision for him."

Seeing that Liang Rui still looked unhappy, Teacher Lin said helplessly, "I didn't just recommend it to you, take a look."

She handed over a lesson plan book.

Liang Rui looked down and saw that the name and score of every student in their class were listed, and at the end there was a note indicating the path that was suitable for each student.

Some went to No. 1 Middle School, some went to No. 2 Middle School, some went to technical secondary school, and some dropped out of school.

There are fifty-five students in their class, and Teacher Lin has recorded the future path of each student.

This made Liang Rui feel complicated. He thought that Teacher Lin looked down on him, but it turned out not to be the case.

It turns out that Teacher Lin was just worrying about them.

However, Liang Rui was too proud to open his mouth to apologize. Jiang Meishu noticed something, so she took Liang Rui's hand and patted it. Then she said to Teacher Lin, "Teacher Lin, this child was anxious and misunderstood you. His father and I apologize to you on his behalf."

Before he finished speaking, Liang Rui spoke anxiously, "You don't need to apologize."

"I'm here to apologize for what I did wrong."

He walked up to Teacher Lin with a heroic and confident look, "Teacher Lin, I originally thought you looked down on me, so I left in anger. Now I don't think so anymore. Thank you."

He bowed and said, "Thank you for worrying about my future and the future of all fifty-five students in our class."

How could such a rebellious student suddenly become so well-behaved?

Especially when Liang Rui bowed to apologize, Teacher Lin was a little surprised. She raised her hand to help Liang Rui up and said, "Okay, you don't have to apologize. It's my fault. I was too blunt at the time and hurt your self-esteem."

"Liang Rui, the teacher also apologizes to you."

This made Liang Rui subconsciously avoid it.

Teacher Lin looked at him jumping up and down and couldn't help but smile, "I have something I want you to do for me, is that okay?"

Liang Rui hummed, "You say."

"Xu Wenqing, a classmate of ours, was admitted to No. 1 Middle School, but because his family is poor, his family wants him to drop out. I'd like you to accompany me on this journey."

Seeing Liang Rui was a little puzzled.

Teacher Lin explained, "Xu Wenqing's family may be a little unreasonable. At the critical moment, I need you to use force to help me deter them."

Liang Rui, "?"

After a while, he asked quietly, "Teacher Lin, do I really look like a bad guy?"

Teacher Lin looked him over and said, "He doesn't look like a good person anyway."

"If you go to the Xu family with me, the Xu family will have to think twice before they want to do anything to me."

Liang Rui, “…”

In the end, he finally agreed and made an appointment with Teacher Lin to visit his home the next night.

When Liang Rui, Jiang Meishu and others left school.

Liang Ruidu walked outside, but suddenly turned back to look at the school gate, "Mom and Dad."

He suddenly shouted.

This left Jiang Meishu and Liang Rui a little confused.

Liang Rui whispered, "Thank you."

Thank you.

It made me feel what it was like to be loved.
