Chapter 197 Rejecting the Quota from Capital Medical University
Actually, she had discussed this matter with Dean Kong. The college entrance examination was coming up soon, and Dean Kong told her that she could take the exam.
With a degree, no one will question her anymore.
But Dean Kong was worried about something else.
Given Jiang Ning's level of education, could those university professors really teach her?
Jiang Ning chuckled softly and said calmly, "I can get my university degree myself, so you don't need to worry about it."
"Take an exam?" Old Master Shen felt like he was hearing a joke. "How can you take the college entrance exam with only an elementary school diploma?"
Now that things have come to this point, Jiang Ning explained, "There used to be a teacher in our village who was sent down to the countryside. Although I couldn't go to school during those years, that teacher continued to teach me."
She said this to justify her extraordinary abilities.
Now Old Master Shen had nothing to say. He thought Jiang Ning came from the countryside, couldn't read a single word, and only knew a little about being a barefoot doctor.
Now that he had become a daughter-in-law of the Shen family, he naturally wanted to give her some prestige, at least so as not to embarrass her too much.
Professor Qi had already offered to recommend someone, but he hadn't expected the other party to refuse, which made him a little embarrassed.
He couldn't help but say, "Young lady, the admission score for Capital Medical University is not low. You should think it through carefully. Otherwise, if you don't get into university, there won't be any more spots available."
Jiang Ning didn't react much.
Why should she argue with an old man about whether or not she can go to university?
These people are inexplicable.
She neither proactively asked someone to recommend her to a university, nor did she mention wanting to apply to Capital Medical University.
Taking advantage of their age, they formed preconceived notions.
Jiang Ning glanced at Old Master Shen.
It's true that birds of a feather flock together.
Even Dean Kong wasn't as baffled as them.
Grandpa Shen agreed with Professor Qi's words. He looked at Jiang Ning and said, "Shen Mo's wife, you need to think this through carefully."
Who would have thought that the other party would be so unyielding?
“No need for that,” Jiang Ning said.
Old Master Shen was so angry that his chest hurt again.
He missed his eldest son's family a lot during the years they were sent to the countryside, but now that they're back, they're all more infuriating than the last.
Now even his grandchildren and younger generations can talk back to him.
"Alright, then the recommendation slots are gone." Professor Qi said in a displeased tone, "Don't regret it if you don't get into Capital Medical University."
With elders in the family, the younger generation naturally doesn't say much.
Hearing the other person say this, Xu Jin couldn't hold back her fiery temper any longer.
"Professor Qi, is it? Ningning hasn't even taken the exam yet and you're already cursing others for failing. How can Capital Medical University have a teacher like you?"
Previously, when Grandpa Shen and Professor Qi each said they could give Jiang Ning a spot at Capital Medical University, she was able to hold her temper.
Although she felt that Jiang Ning didn't need anyone's recommendation, she even thought that probably no one could teach Jiang Ning, and that Jiang Ning would be more suited to teaching at a university.
But when Jiang Ning refused, the professor seemed to lose his composure, feeling that her refusal was a slap in his face, and even said that Jiang Ning wouldn't pass the exam.
Seeing that Jiang Ning had no intention of accepting the spot, Xu Jin couldn't bear it any longer and retorted without hesitation.
Mother Shen chimed in, "Xiao Jin is right. What right do you have to curse my daughter-in-law to fail to get into university?"
The two of them, like protective mother hens, retorted angrily.
Professor Qi was so angry that his face turned red, and he finally stormed off.
Old Master Shen looked at the family with exasperation, slamming his cane on the ground as he said angrily, "I risked my reputation to invite them here, and you've driven them away? What are you trying to do?"
Shen Mo said, "Grandpa, you don't need to worry about my wife."
"I'm doing this all for your wife's sake!" said Old Master Shen.
"Grandpa, you're doing this for yourself, aren't you?" Shen Mo said calmly, but pointedly. "You look down on my wife and think that her background is bad and tarnishes your reputation."
Upon hearing this, Old Master Shen was stunned for a moment. He felt a burning pain on his face when a junior exposed him like this. He shouted angrily, "You unfilial son! Are you trying to anger me to death?"
Shen Mo said, "I wouldn't have said these things if you weren't targeting my wife."
He doesn't interfere in his wife's affairs, but that doesn't mean he'll stand by and watch her suffer.
He could figure out what the old man was thinking with just a little thought.
It's unacceptable to humiliate his wife for the sake of some so-called reputation!
He can't even say a harsh word to his wife, so these people are even less likely to.
Even his closest relatives.
Grandpa Shen was so angry that his chest ached. Shen Pianran immediately went over to comfort him, "Grandpa, don't be angry. If your second sister-in-law wants to take the college entrance exam, then let her take it herself. Whether she passes or not is her own business. Don't get upset over such a small matter!"
Shen Pianran thought to herself that Jiang Ning was an idiot.
To be able to get a spot in university from a professor is a blessing that many people would rather die for.
The opportunity was right in front of them, yet they still pushed it away.
He even shamelessly claimed that he could get into university on his own.
Although universities have only recently reopened and the score requirements are not too high, she doesn't believe that someone from a rural area can get into university.
Jiang Ning must have said she wanted to take the exam herself just to save face.
To throw away a precious spot just to save face is nothing short of foolish.
In the end, Mr. Shen left in anger, and the event concluded.
Mr. and Mrs. Shen comforted Jiang Ning. Mrs. Shen said, "Our Ning Ning is so capable, she doesn't need those vain reputations to gild her. Don't listen to what the old man said."
Mr. Shen also said, "A diploma is important, but real skills are more important. These hands of yours can heal the sick and save lives."
Father Shen gave a thumbs up.
Jiang Ning felt a warm glow in her heart.
Since they ate dinner too late, Mr. and Mrs. Shen invited them to stay overnight.
Jiang Ning was digesting her food in the yard when Shen Mo was called into the house by his father.
Seeing that it was getting late, Xu Jin stuffed a bunch of medicine into Brother Shen's hand before leaving.
The moon was beautiful tonight, and Jiang Ning was in the open courtyard watching the moon while waiting for Shen Mo.
The Shen family's courtyard was quite large, and there was a small pond near the front house where several fish were kept.
Jiang Ning was sitting by the pond when she looked down and saw a dark shadow suddenly appear behind her in the water.
Jiang Ning's expression darkened. Just as the other person raised their hand, Jiang Ning suddenly dodged to the side, and the figure behind her missed its target.
Jiang Ning suddenly regretted dodging too quickly. She should have waited until the other person pounced on her before dodging, otherwise the person would have fallen into the water.
Shen Pianran never expected that she would miss her target.
She still remembers the humiliation Jiang Ning caused her this morning!
He originally intended to push Jiang Ning into the water to get revenge, but she managed to dodge it.
"Trying to push me?" Jiang Ning crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow.
"Which eye of yours saw me trying to push you?" Shen Pianran would of course not admit it. She was only annoyed that she hadn't moved quickly enough and Jiang Ning had dodged it.
Shen Pianran said arrogantly, "I didn't push you into the water, so what, do you want to complain?"
Jiang Ning saw Shen Mo walking behind Shen Pianran, and suddenly tilted her head and smiled, "No need to complain, your words have already been heard."
