Chapter 79: The same university
Zhai Da took the dark, rough hand and patted it gently: "Fan Junwei is a very good person. Don't always think that he will be bullied at school. With his physique, who would dare to stand there!"
Wu Guizhen's slack old eyes smiled like crescent moons: "Really? Xiaowei is very strong..."
At this time, Fan Junwei came out, carrying a plastic bag of apples: "Grandma, what are you two talking about?"
Zhai Da smiled and said, "I'm praising you."
Wu Guizhen stepped forward and slid the bag over: "Why is there only so little..."
Fan Junwei didn't reply, but laughed: "Not a few..."
In fact, there weren’t many apples in that box that were presentable and good-looking.
It's all in this bag.
Fan Junwei said to Zhai Da, "Let's go. I'll take you out."
Zhai Da waved goodbye to the old man.
The two of them walked about two hundred meters toward the intersection when Fan Junwei said, "If you want to take a taxi, this is the most convenient place. Here's the apple for you."
Zhai Da took it without hesitation.
A taxi passed by on the opposite side of the road. Zhai Da waved his hand, and the taxi obviously slowed down and went to the front to find a place to turn around. Zhai Da remembered something and said to Fan Junwei:
"You know I can do magic, right?"
Fan Junwei nodded.
"I also know a little magic."
Fan Junwei: ...
"I'm embarrassed by the long silence."
"Uh...I do, really."
Zhai Da snapped his fingers, and something appeared in his hand, which he placed in Fan Junwei's hand.
【Tough Man Shaver】
"I'll lend you this. Remember to wash it before use. If you shave with it regularly, good luck will come to you."
Fan Junwei fell silent again, but finally accepted the garbage that Zhai Da picked up in front of him.
In fact, he doesn't have much beard. It's rare for a man of his age to have a lot of beard. At most, his beard is relatively thick among the hairs.
Not taking care of himself on a daily basis is also a major reason why he looks a bit sloppy.
Zhai Da emphasized: "Don't forget to use it, and take good care of it."
He hoped that this equipment, which was of no use to him, could help Fan Junwei.
At least... sparring in the gym doesn't hurt that much.
Fan Junwei nodded and said seriously: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
On the system interface, the ownership status of [Tough Man Shaver] also changed to "temporarily lost" and "activated".
The taxi turned around and stopped in front of the two of them. Zhai Da got in, waved to Fan Junwei, and finally said:
"If you can hold on to that part-time job, then do it. If you can't, don't force it. After the college entrance examination, I plan to do something and ask you to help me earn money."
Fan Junwei didn't understand why, but he still promised: "I may not be able to help you, but if you call me, I will definitely come."
The bumpy car drove on the way home.
Zhai Da took out a yellow apple from the plastic bag.
It’s not big, not good-looking, and the skin has scars on it, just like Fan Junwei’s grandmother’s hand.
I don't know if it's a benefit for sanitation workers or a donation from the fruit shop owner.
Abandon.
Zhai Da wiped it and took a big bite.
But very sweet.
————
When Zhai Da returned home, Lu Wei and Yu Xiaoli were already busy in the kitchen. The tempting aroma of food filled every inch of the space and finally invaded every corner.
Yu Xiaoli turned around and saw Zhai Da raising the plastic bag in his hand: "A friend gave me some fruit, it's so sweet."
"Really? I'll try it after dinner. Which friend of yours? Wu Yue?"
"No, he's a very manly friend."
After carrying the apples into the kitchen and putting them in the refrigerator, Zhai Da said casually:
"Did you finish your clothes shopping? Did it go well?"
Yu Xiaoli said without even turning her head: "How can it not go smoothly? It's not difficult to buy clothes for Xiaowei."
Zhai Da looked at Lu Wei and said, "What are you wearing? Show me."
Yu Xiaoli turned around and glared at Zhai Da, and then Zhai Da remembered.
Looks like I went to buy underwear...
Seeing Lu Wei's tilted head, Zhai Da quickly added, "That was a joke."
At least in front of my mother, it has to be a joke!
At the dinner table, Yu Xiaoli suddenly said:
"Xiao Da, you and Xiao Wei have been studying hard. I wasn't sure whether you were really studying or not, so I didn't dare ask too much. After all, you fainted once, didn't you?"
Zhai Da was speechless. This was impossible to get over, right?
But it is true that Yu Xiaoli has never asked him any questions about studies since he fainted, for fear that he would be stressed.
As for Lu Wei...this girl is also a little taciturn. Unless Yu Xiaoli asked, she never mentioned her work at the factory.
"Now that the subject level test is over, it's time for me, as your mother, to ask the truth. Where are you two at?"
Finally, he added, "I'm talking about studying... Of course, it's best to report other situations to me so I can be mentally prepared."
Lu Wei put down her bowl and chopsticks, sat upright and looked at Zhai Da. When something like this happened, it was obvious that Zhai Da was here to make the decision.
Zhai Da organized his words and it was almost time to report the results of the battle to his mother.
"Then let me be frank. Your son, I have accumulated a lot of experience and my talent has been awakened. The results are quite good so far. I have secured a 211 place and am still making rapid progress."
Silence...a long silence.
Yu Xiaoli: "Are you done joking? Okay, let's get down to business. How are your grades?"
Zhai Da raised an eyebrow. "Not a word of this is a joke. My test score is 372, and I'm estimated to get two A's on the required subject tests. This year, our provincial first-tier admission score is only 340. If that's not a sure thing, what is?"
Yu Xiaoli was like a parrot: "Are you done joking? Okay, let's get down to business..."
Zhai Da stood up and took out the test paper from the study and handed it to Yu Xiaoli: "Look at it yourself."
Yu Xiaoli looked at him blankly for a long time, and finally there was a hint of belief in her eyes.
"But... the last time I asked for leave for your evening study session, the teacher only said that you had made progress in Chinese..."
"The test results hadn't come out yet. If you still don't believe me, you can call the teacher. I even moved my seat.
The third row."
Just when Zhai Da thought his mother would praise him, Yu Xiaoli took Lu Wei's hand and said, "Xiao Wei...you are really amazing!!"
Zhai Da: ...
Lu Wei quickly declined, "No, Mr. Yu, Zhai Da teaches me English and Chinese, and I teach him science. We...work together."
Zhai Da clicked his tongue twice. "Lu Wei also got two A's on the compulsory subject tests. As for the college entrance exam... I can guarantee she'll score above 400..."
With 160+40 in math, Lu Wei should have no problem getting 190. As long as she gets 160+120 in Chinese and English, she can get around 200 under Zhai Da's guidance, and the total score of 400 will be a sure thing.
Yu Xiaoli had heard of the new 2008 regulations but didn't understand much. She knew that you could get into a 211 university, but she wasn't very clear about what 400 points meant.
Zhai Da explained, "Let's put it this way. Lu Wei and I both have a 985 university as our foundation, and we're probably the best among them. I'm a little behind, but I'm still confident that I'll be an average 985."
Yu Xiaoli's face flushed visibly, and she was obviously excited. But before she could say anything, Lu Wei suddenly shook her head and spoke quickly:
"You and I...go to the same university."
There was no expression on her face, and Zhai Da couldn't tell what she was feeling.
But Zhai Da wasn't surprised: "Your score is likely higher than mine. Although it's higher, it may not be much higher. But it's not strategically sound to insist on applying to the same university. It might waste your score."
Lu Wei didn't say anything, just shook her head.
Zhai Da asked seriously, "Have you ever thought about what would happen if it was Tsinghua University or Peking University?"
If he remembered correctly, there was an unlucky guy who was rejected by Kyoto University because he got a B in his subject. This news was widely circulated in the "08 Victims Exchange Group", so he remembered that the admission score of Kyoto University this year was around 415.
Tsinghua University should be about the same, and Lu Wei has a chance to challenge this level.
It would be a waste to bring Lu Wei down to the same level as him just to go to the same university.
Lu Wei just kept repeating the same words while eating: "Same university."
Seeing that the two of them were having a hard time continuing the conversation, Yu Xiaoli stepped in to help.
Filling out the application form is still a bit far away for her, and she hasn't digested today's news yet.
"Oh my god... our family is going to have two college graduates? And top-tier universities?!"
Both verbally and emotionally, she has already treated Lu Wei as her own family.
As for whether it is a daughter or something else...it has not been divided so finely at the moment.
Zhai Da smiled and said, "That's what I mean."
Yu Xiaoli laughed and laughed...and then she started to blame Zhai Da.
"Child, you are studying hard, why don't you tell your mother?"
Zhai Da: ...
Do you want to listen to what you're saying? When did I ever study behind your back?!
At most, it is because the results are still improving and have not been reported seriously. After all, small tests do not have that strong "credibility".
He had originally planned to have a systematic discussion with Yu Xiaoli after the third mock exam, with the credible transcript in hand.
