"A primary or middle school teacher won't do. You need to strive to become a university teacher, preferably a professor, or even an academic giant."
"If you could become a great teacher like a renowned Confucian scholar of our time, with students all over the world and a high status, that would be even better."
Zhou Ling looked at her mother's dreaming of the future with a sense of helplessness. Had her mother forgotten that nowadays universities were basically worker-peasant-soldier universities?
University professor?
University professor?
Weren't they basically all transferred to lower levels?
An academic giant?
Zhou Ling certainly had such ambitions, but she knew very well that she had no chance of realizing them.
But her mother was right; opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared.
If she doesn't work hard and isn't ambitious, she won't be able to seize any opportunities.
"Mom, don't worry, I will study hard and when I have the chance, I will fulfill what you said and bring honor to our ancestors." Zhou Ling hugged her mother and promised her.
Chen Suwen leaned back tactically, tilting his head far back to keep her from getting too close.
"Mommy, Grandma, what are you doing? I want a hug too."
When Song Qing, carrying her schoolbag, saw her mother and grandmother hugging and cuddling, she quickly ran over and asked to join them.
"Okay, come here and give me a hug." Zhou Ling picked up her daughter and placed her between herself and her mother.
Chen Suwen: "..."
"Alright, alright, stop being so clingy. You should all go to work or school, and stop sticking to me."
Chen Suwen saw her daughter and grandson off, then thought for a moment and went out again, intending to check on the "miserable state" of Pang Yadong and his wife.
Along the way, she heard the family members in the compound whispering and discussing the "miserable situation" of Pang Yadong and his family.
"I heard that Deng Linlin had diarrhea at home until her legs were weak. She was taken to the hospital and she even had diarrhea in front of everyone. The smell was awful."
"Um... could you please not say things like that while other people are eating?"
"Who told you to come here with your rice bowl to listen to us? You know perfectly well what's been going on lately, yet you brought your rice bowl to listen, and now you're blaming us for talking?"
"Exactly, if you don't want to listen, then leave. Bring your rice bowl and come listen to us. Now you're telling us to stop talking?"
"Ignore her and keep talking."
"Didn't Deng Linlin lose face big time? She deserved it, for looking down on people before."
Deng Linlin, relying on her status as a city dweller and the fact that her brother was a minor leader in the Party Committee, always acted arrogantly and looked down on others.
After arriving at the family compound, she didn't really get along with everyone. Apart from those who wanted to curry favor with her, everyone else's relationship with her was just so-so. Some even hoped she would embarrass herself or suffer misfortune.
Now that everyone sees her in trouble, they feel relieved.
"I heard that Deputy Battalion Commander Pang was the same; he actually soiled his pants during training."
"Wow, that couple is so unrefined."
"I heard that the soldier who fought with Deputy Battalion Commander Pang that day had no appetite all day. He was obviously disgusted."
"What a terrible thing! How could that couple be so inconsiderate?"
"Exactly! They don't care about hygiene or safety, how can they endanger others?"
"I really feel sorry for that soldier who was disgusted, and the doctors and nurses at the hospital, they must have been disgusted too, right?"
Chen Suwen calmly walked past a group of gossipy family members and headed towards the hospital.
She was going to check on how badly those two people were suffering. As for their child, that was just a side effect; the child only had mild diarrhea and slightly itchy skin, nothing serious.
But because they are young, although they have recovered a lot after taking medicine and getting injections, they are still feeling sickly.
Chen Suwen had no guilty conscience at all.
In the original storyline, only her grandson and granddaughter knew how much suffering they endured after losing their father and their mother was also in an accident.
