Chapter 451
When Lin Wang came back, Su Miao and Su Yuanzheng had already sold him more than a dozen bowls of sweet soup, and the first customers who bought it had already finished it.
Lin Wang hurriedly thanked them, his eyes full of gratitude, and then went to collect and wash the dishes swiftly. Only then did Hu Xiaodie and Meng Jiajia arrive late.
Su Miao asked, "Xiao Die, Jia Jia, why are you here so late? There are so many people lined up in front! How long do you have to wait?"
Hu Xiaodie had a bitter face and looked annoyed. "Miao, I'm so unlucky today! There's a road under construction in front of my house. It's all gravel, and there's a fish pond next to it. When I went out today, I fell into the pond with my car!"
"Ah?! Are you okay?" Su Miao and Lin Wang exclaimed at the same time.
"Fortunately, I can swim, but that pond with dead fish stinks! I immediately ran home to wash my hair and take a shower, but it still stinks now." Hu Xiaodie curled her lips, her face full of disgust.
Meng Jiajia shook her head helplessly and took over the conversation: "We agreed to meet at the street corner, but I waited and waited and didn't see her, so I went straight to her house to look for her. Before I even got to the door, I saw her father and her brother fishing for bicycles in the fish pond."
"Pfft! Sorry, I really can't help it." Seeing that Hu Xiaodie was safe and sound, and hearing the funny details of the accident, she really couldn't hold back her laughter.
Hu Xiaodie looked at the score checking queue that was as long as the Great Wall of China and was about to cry. "I don't think we can check our scores today. We definitely can't cut in line. We'll be scolded to death."
"I came early and looked around, but I didn't see Guodong. Isn't he here to check his scores?" Su Miao said puzzledly.
Meng Jiajia whispered, "I heard he has a relative who works in the Education Bureau. He might be able to help them check their scores directly. His three brothers took the college entrance examination, which is impressive."
"I was just about to say that if you see him, tell him to look at the red list over there. He scored 623, which means he can get into a key university."
"Wow!!! He did so well in the exam??? I want to go and see, come on! Let's go and see together." Hu Xiaodie excitedly pulled Su Miao and Meng Jiajia to see the list.
Lin Wang looked at their backs as they ran away, then lowered his head and continued to fill the sugar water.
The next second, Su Yuanzheng took the bowl from him and said with a smile, "Go and take a look. Maybe your name will be on it next year."
"Thank you, uncle!" Lin Wang said gratefully, and then caught up with his classmates.
When he arrived at the red list, he saw Hu Xiaodie and Meng Jiajia standing there blankly. He asked, "What's wrong? Didn't you find it?"
Hu Xiaodie said with a dazed look on her face, "Miaomiao scored 700...huh? Only one or two points were deducted for each subject? I couldn't even get that score in an open-book exam."
"And this is the score based on the paper. She can also get an extra 10 points for ethnicity," Meng Jiajia added.
Lin Wang smiled and nodded. "I already knew that. She's always been so talented. It would be strange if she didn't get this score. But you've been here for so long, are you sure you don't want to queue up first? You don't want to check your scores?"
Hu Xiaodie whispered, "Jia Jia, I just saw Zhang Yan in the crowd. Let's go over and quietly give her the admission ticket so she can help us check it."
"Okay! That's a good idea." Meng Jiajia nodded in agreement.
The two of them went to Zhang Yan. Su Miao carefully looked at the list again and said regretfully, "If I had tutored Jia Jia earlier, maybe she could have made the list. I don't know how Zhang Yan handled the mistakes in her composition in the end."
"I heard that due to the type of questions this time, many students encountered this problem. She is not an isolated case. The higher-ups should make a fairer decision."
For the next hour, several people chatted while selling sweet soup. When the sweet soup was sold out, Zhang Yan also checked the scores.
When Hu Xiaodie and Meng Jiajia saw the scores she wrote in the notebook, they jumped up excitedly!
This score was much higher than their usual mock exam scores! This was all thanks to Su Miao's guidance during the final sprint.
Hu Xiaodie pounded her tricycle in frustration, saying bitterly, "I actually passed the undergraduate entrance line? The line is 480, but I scored 481! How could I possibly be this capable? I'm so pissed off!!! I didn't even apply to an undergraduate university!!!"
Meng Jiajia scored 612 points. Her teacher had previously helped her analyze the admission line of Xi’an University, and this score was likely a sure thing.
"I'll let you be bolder! Report it conservatively, right?" She had no place to vent her inner excitement, so she raised her hand and punched Hu Xiaodie twice.
Seeing them hammering back and forth, Lin Wang said distressedly:
"Xiaodie, it's okay to apply like this. At least you're guaranteed to get into your first choice. If you take the risk and apply for undergraduate studies, you might be assigned to a major you don't like. Um... could you please stop hammering my car for now?"
Zhang Yan kept looking at them and smiling without saying anything, then she noticed Su Miao was looking at her.
"Look, these are my grades." Zhang Yan turned a page of her notebook, which recorded her grades in various subjects.
Su Miao looked carefully and saw that his total score was 502. His performance in other subjects was normal, but his Chinese score was very low.
"You got a zero for your essay, right? Luckily, your foundation in other subjects is very strong. Even without the essay score, you've already passed the undergraduate entrance exam."
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "After the exam, my homeroom teacher told me that many students violated the rules when writing their essays.
If you write your full name, the score for the entire subject will be invalidated. For someone like me who did not write his full name but whose name is related to his, the essay score may be calculated as zero.
I just checked and it's exactly as the teacher said."
"Fortunately, the entire subject was not invalidated. I'm very lucky. Which school have you applied to? Can you get in with your current score?" Hu Xiaodie asked.
"I applied to Xiamen University, but my score is really high, and I don't want to be adjusted. I guess I won't be able to get into my first choice."
"What about your second choice? If you can get in, will you go? Or repeat a year?"
"My second choice is the University of Geosciences. My scores should be about the same. If I can be admitted, I will go there too."
"The Geological University is also a very good school. It seems that you can all go to college this year. You are all top students!" Lin Wang said enviously.
Su Miao said, "It will be your turn next year. I'll give you all the notes I've compiled in a couple of days."
"Let me tell you, Su Miao's notebook is amazing! You know my previous scores! In just that one month, Su Miao helped me raise my score by a hundred points!
It's not just me, Jiajia and Guodong too, you must study hard!"
Lin Wang originally thought Hu Xiaodie was performing exceptionally well, but he didn't expect that there would be special treatment for the top scorer. So he said excitedly, "Thank you, Su Miao! I want to see the magic manual too!"
"No problem! If you have any questions, you can ask me. School still has some time before it starts, so I can help you with some tutoring."
Su Miao feels that the classmates and friends he interacts with are all very good, and he is willing to help them to the best of his ability. People who work hard deserve a good result.
