How can a relationship be used immediately?
If Wen Ying doesn't meet the passing score, it will be too late to use Teacher Lin's connections at the last minute. Teacher Lin's mother-in-law only has a few places each year, and it will be difficult to decide who to give it to.
Deng Shangwei meant to lay the groundwork early so that he could speak after the high school entrance examination scores were announced.
If Wen Ying does well in the exam and can get into the provincial key school without taking any backdoor, that would be the best outcome.
If Wen Ying doesn't do well in the exam, it will be easier to talk to Teacher Lin with the preparation she has put in place.
Deng Shangwei was able to transform from a fishmonger into a multi-millionaire boss. He must have his own set of experiences in how to interact with others.
"I'm not asking you to take Xiaoying to use the back door. I'm asking you to visit Teacher Lin and ask him to help introduce a tutor. If we find a tutor ourselves, how can we find a better one than Teacher Lin?"
This is the preparation laid by Deng Shangwei.
By using the excuse of remedial lessons, Teacher Lin can be mentally prepared. If Wen Ying does not perform well in the high school entrance examination, it will not be awkward for her to ask Teacher Lin for help in getting an admission quota.
Wen Ying immediately understood Deng Shangwei's subtext, but Chen Li had to think for a while before she understood.
Because Wen Ying had been struggling in the Magic City before her rebirth, and had dealt with so many cunning people, how could she not see through Deng Shangwei's tricks?
On the contrary, Chen Li gradually returned to her family after her youngest son Deng Hao was born and Deng Shangwei's business grew bigger and bigger. She was not as perceptive as Wen Ying.
Wen Ying thought Deng Shangwei’s suggestion was great.
To be honest, Wen Ying doesn't need to take English classes. Her performance in English in the high school entrance exam was absolutely above average.
With the vocabulary she has mastered, it is more than enough to cope with the college entrance examination.
What she needs to improve are other subjects!
After she started working, her English did not decline but improved, because English is also used in her work. However, when it comes to subjects like mathematics, physics and chemistry that require formulas to solve problems, Wen Ying is now confused.
It has been nine years since I graduated from university. It would be a miracle if I still remember all the subject knowledge I learned, right?
Anyway, Wen Ying was not a top student in her previous life, so she doesn’t feel any psychological pressure to consider herself a poor student now.
After comforting herself, Wen Ying told Chen Li her idea. If Teacher Lin could help, she might as well make up for several subjects at once. The reason Wen Ying gave was to consolidate the junior high school knowledge and preview the high school knowledge in advance.
Chen Li hesitated: "Is it too hard? Can your body handle it?"
Wen Ying nodded, "Aunt, let me try first."
Chen Li felt that Wen Ying was very sensible.
Many children learn passively, and there are not many who learn actively like Wen Ying. Wen Ying is so self-conscious, but her sister Chen Ru is still not satisfied. If it were Deng Jie or Deng Hao, Chen Li would be so happy!
At 3:30 in the afternoon, Chen Li carried a large bag of seafood and took Wen Ying to Teacher Lin's house.
Wen Ying is a little fat, but when she goes to visit someone, she should try to dress herself neatly and cleanly so as not to embarrass her aunt Chen Li in front of Teacher Lin.
Teacher Lin lives in a villa area. There are more than a dozen small villas hidden deep in the community, with green walls as shields to block the prying eyes of other residents in the community.
Today is the weekend, Chen Li called in advance, and Teacher Lin was waiting for Chen Li and Wen Ying to come home.
Teacher Lin’s villa is different from other villas. There is a garden in front of each villa in the community. Wen Ying walked along and found that most of the villas’ gardens were cultivated to grow vegetables, and those that did not have vegetables planted fruit trees. Chinese people have always been so practical. It has nothing to do with being rich or poor. As long as they see land, they can’t help but want to grow some vegetables... Growing vegetables in villas is not uncommon. In the future, there will be people growing vegetables on balconies and rooftops!
Wen Ying also read a news report that parents of international students who accompanied their children to study in the United States reclaimed a piece of wasteland at Yale University to grow vegetables. It was really amazing.
But there are no vegetables planted in the yard of Teacher Lin’s villa. There is a large lawn that is neatly cultivated with a prominent American style, which was rare in China in 2004.
"Has anyone in Teacher Lin's family studied abroad?"
Wen Ying asked casually, and Chen Li was surprised, "How do you know that Teacher Lin's husband returned from studying in the United States?"
"Aunt, I guessed."
"Oh, you're pretty good, guess again—"
Chen Li wanted to tease Wen Ying, and the door of the villa opened. A young woman in her twenties stood at the door and greeted Chen Li: "Sister Chen, you came as soon as you came, and what else did you bring!"
"You know I don't have anything else at home, but these are all I have, and they're not expensive, so I'm just asking you to try something new."
The person speaking is Teacher Lin.
Teacher Lin has long hair and wears glasses. The clothes she wears would have been a high-end brand in 2004, but in 2019 they are not something that ordinary white-collar workers can afford. However, the style is very low-key.
Teacher Lin has a pretty appearance, but she is very elegant and the skin on her face is as tender as a peeled egg.
Wen Ying looked at Teacher Lin, and Teacher Lin was also looking at her.
"Hello, Teacher Lin, my name is Wen Ying."
Wen Ying was very open and confident, and Teacher Lin also smiled, "Come in quickly, it's hot outside."
Today was the weekend, and only Teacher Lin and the nanny were in the villa. No one else was there. The nanny brought a fruit plate to Wen Ying and the others. Chen Li and Teacher Lin exchanged pleasantries for a while before getting down to business, talking about hiring a tutor for Wen Ying.
Tutoring fees are not a problem, the teacher must be competent. Chen Li believes in Teacher Lin’s recommendation.
Teacher Lin also roughly knew the economic situation of Chen Li's family. People living in this community were not that poor.
In 2004, all kinds of holiday tutoring classes in Chengdu were already springing up everywhere. Some parents liked to send their children to tutoring classes, while some parents liked to hire people to give tutoring at home. The latter usually hired college students. Chengdu is the capital of Sichuan Province, so there is no problem in finding college students from good schools to serve as tutors.
Teacher Lin asked Chen Li which one she wanted, and Chen Li looked at Wen Ying.
"Teacher Lin, I want a high school teacher like you to tutor me. Even college students from good universities may not be able to teach students. High school teachers like you are professional."
That's the truth.
If Wen Ying wants to hire college students for tutoring, such as students from the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China or Sichuan University, Teacher Lin can easily find them. He also has resources for students from other prestigious universities.
Not all teachers graduate from prestigious universities, but when it comes to teaching students, teachers are the most professional.
A teacher doesn't need to be a jack of all trades, as long as he or she is good at the subject he or she teaches!
Wen Ying's words made Teacher Lin couldn't help laughing.
Teenage students don't flatter others, so what Wen Ying said must be true, and Teacher Lin was of course happy that the students recognized it from the bottom of their hearts.
"So which subjects do you want to take?"
"Mathematics, physics, and chemistry."
Wen Ying not only talked about the subjects she wanted to take tutoring classes, but also explained her intentions. In addition to preparing for high school math, physics, and chemistry, she also wanted to consolidate the knowledge she had learned in junior high school.
Teacher Lin said that he remembered it and would tell Chen Li the result in the next two days.
Chen Li talked with Teacher Lin for a while, looked at her watch, and then took Wen Ying away.
Teacher Lin wanted to keep them for dinner, but Chen Li naturally declined. Teacher Lin sent them to the door, and a tall and thin boy pushed open the iron gate of the garden.
Wen Ying almost bumped into the young man.
Wen Ying was stunned when she saw the boy's appearance.
…Oh my God, why is it him?!
