Chapter 79: Doubts
Chapter 80: Doubts
My parents sat on the sofa in silence, but it was my grandmother, who was lying on a recliner basking in the sun, who spoke.
"Humph, I knew this would happen. How could a girl like you who doesn't stay at home and runs around everywhere pass the exam like this? Oh, it's good enough that I didn't cause you any trouble. You're still dreaming of going to college like the Wen family's kids. Don't you even consider your own abilities..."
Ever since grandma came to their house, she has been sarcastic and mocking every day. She feels uncomfortable if she doesn't provoke Fang Qing and her daughter. Before, Fang Qing lived in the school dormitory, and Fang's mother found an easy job for herself. The two of them were away from home all day, and there was only a young nanny to serve her every day. Old Mrs. Fang never had a chance to show her strength, but today, after hearing the news brought back by her son, she finally had the chance.
Old Madam Fang raised her eyelids and saw her granddaughter standing stupidly at the door. She was immediately furious. "Look at yourself. You wear a skirt every day and show your legs to whom? Why don't you change your clothes quickly? You didn't even get into college, and you still have the nerve to go out and play?"
What? Didn’t pass the exam?
Fang Qing dropped the luggage in his hand to the ground with a thud. He quickly walked up to his father and said with a trembling voice, "Dad, my results are out? What does it mean that I didn't pass the exam? Where did you hear the news? Isn't there still a few days left?"
Father Fang held his head in his hands for a long time without saying anything. After a long while, he sighed, "Qingqing, tell me the truth. Was this exam difficult? Didn't you usually do well in mock exams? Why did you get such a low score this time?"
As he spoke, Fang's father took out a piece of paper with Fang Qing's grades in various subjects on it. Fang Qing grabbed it and looked at the numbers on it but couldn't understand them. He read it over and over again several times before he understood the meaning of these numbers.
"Mathematics, 105, Chinese, 98, foreign language, 103..."
Fang Qing read it while shaking his head, "No, this is not my score. The exam was not very difficult this time. Except for the last two big math questions that took up some time, the other questions were about the same difficulty as the usual mock exams. Even if I did badly on the exam, I couldn't have scored like this... Dad, believe me, I really wouldn't have scored like this..."
Father Fang thought that she could not accept this result, and sighed, "It's okay, it's okay. It's just an exam, and there will always be times when you don't perform well. Don't take it too seriously. No one blames you. At most, Dad will continue to support your studies. Go to school tomorrow to apply for repeating the year. You will definitely be admitted next year..."
Fang Qing stood up and said, "Dad, you have to believe me. No matter how badly I do in the exam, it won't end up like this!"
Father Fang's face darkened, and he pointed at the report card on the table, "Then explain to me, what's wrong with these grades? Could it be that someone switched your test paper? You just didn't pass the exam, right? At most you can study for another year, but is that all you can do? You're hysterical when you encounter a little setback. This is a disgrace to our Fang family!"
Fang's father stood up angrily, slammed the door and left the room. Fang's mother sighed, picked up the report card on the ground and wiped her tears, "Qingqing, even if we don't believe it anymore, the results are out, we have to admit that this is your result."
"Mom! Even you don't believe me? Don't you know what my grades are like? The test paper is not difficult this time. I can't answer like this even if I close my eyes! There must be something wrong here!"
Fang's mother also got angry, "Then what do you want us to do? This is the unified score. Could it be that your score is wrong? There are so many candidates in the country, how could it be such a coincidence that your score was changed? Qingqing, our family has the conditions to support your study now. At worst, we can repeat the year and we will be able to pass the exam next year..."
Fang Qing couldn't hear anything in her mind. She recalled the entire process of the college entrance examination, even the original test questions. The more she thought about it, the more she was convinced that she would never score like this. There was no problem with the entire process, so how could the result be like this?
This huge question made Fang Qing unable to sit still any longer. She threw down her backpack and ran out the door, heading straight for the residence of her homeroom teacher, Teacher Zhang.
At this time, Teacher Zhang was puzzled looking at the report cards of the students in the class.
Fang Qing's grades have always been stable. Even if he performed poorly in the exam, he shouldn't have scored so low. With a score of just 500, he can't even get into a second-tier university, not to mention that Fang Qing applied to the best university in the capital...
"Teacher Zhang, are you home? I'm Fang Qing, I have something urgent to discuss with you!"
Teacher Zhang opened the door and let Fang Qing in. "Why are you here so late? Just in time. Have you seen your results? What happened to your results? Did you have problems during the exam, or were you not in good condition during the exam?"
Fang Qing panted and shook his head, "Teacher Zhang, I swear that I didn't let any unexpected circumstances affect the exam, and the questions this time were not that difficult. I would never have scored like this! This can't be my score!"
Teacher Zhang frowned and sat down. She had heard from her senior sister before that two years ago a parent bribed people from the Education Bureau and tried to falsify the test scores and was arrested. At that time, she was surprised that there was really someone so bold. Could it be that her students are encountering such a thing now?
Seeing Fang Qing's panic, Teacher Zhang took a deep breath and said, "I know about this matter. I will find a way to help you check it as soon as possible. You should rest well at home during this period and wait for my news."
After saying goodbye to Teacher Zhang, Fang Qing walked back like a ghost and happened to meet Wen Ling. Wen Ling knew something had happened when she saw her like this. "Qingqing, what's wrong with you? Today's results are out. How many points did you get?"
But Fang Qing acted as if she didn't hear anything and just kept walking forward. Wen Ling was shocked to see her like this, so she pulled her away from the street and walked her home, only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
"Aunt Fang, what's wrong with Qingqing? Did something happen?"
When Fang's mother told her that Fang Qing had failed the college entrance examination, Wen Ling immediately jumped up to refute, "Impossible! Only 500 points. The worst student in our class scored more than 540 points. It's rare for Qingqing to score 600 points. How could she only get such a low score? There must be something wrong!"
After hearing what Wen Ling said, Fang's mother began to doubt, "Could something really have gone wrong?"
Wen Ling nodded vigorously. "There is definitely something wrong. This can't be Qingqing's result. Auntie, please ask someone to check the test paper! I heard that someone has impersonated someone else before. Qingqing has such good results that she can easily get into Capital University. If someone replaced her..."
Fang's mother got anxious when she heard this. "How could such a thing happen? That won't do. I'll ask your uncle to ask someone to check the results and find out what's going on! Thank you, Xiaoling. Auntie won't entertain you..."
Fang's mother called her husband, and after discussing it, they went to the home of the director of the county education bureau overnight...
