Chapter 289: College Entrance Examination Results Released
She was particularly keen on buying all kinds of dresses for Shen Xuewei, as if she were dressing up a real-life Barbie doll.
She looked Shen Xuewei up and down, but felt it wasn't enough.
"Oh dear, why did you tie your hair up like that? It's only shoulder-length, do you really need to tie it up? It's just a little tuft, it looks so ugly, let it down."
Shen Xuewei protested, "Auntie, it's hot!"
"Don't worry about the heat, listen to me, put it down. It'll be boring if you put it down. By the way, I have a headband that would suit you..."
"These shoes won't do, get a new pair. I just bought you some last time. And your lips seem to be missing something too. I have a few unused lipsticks, I'll pick one out for you..."
Chen Fanglan pulled Shen Xuewei to the dressing table and started tidying her up, laughing from ear to ear.
"See? Not bad, right?"
The girl in the mirror had very clear and bright eyes.
Her features weren't exactly stunning, but they were clean and delicate.
What's most captivating are her almond-shaped eyes, with a lighter shade of black pupils that seem to shine like they're holding stars when she looks at people.
She simply sat quietly with her eyes lowered, the small shadows cast by her long eyelashes exuding a special clarity.
With the passage of time, that dark-skinned, thin little girl has unknowingly transformed into a radiant gem.
Shen Xuewei looked at herself in the mirror and suddenly felt that the girl in the mirror was somewhat unfamiliar.
It's me, yet it doesn't seem like me.
However… she pursed her lips and smiled slightly.
This version of myself seems pretty good.
The two left home and drove for nearly an hour before finally stopping in front of a 4S store.
Chen Fanglan led Shen Xuewei into the 4S store, and they picked up the car an hour later.
Shen Xuewei looked at the four-circle logo on the car. Hmm, Audi.
My aunt is also doing well; she bought a car worth over 300,000 yuan without hesitation.
Shen Xuewei looked on with some envy. Although she was rich, buying a car wasn't something she could do so quickly.
Firstly, I'm not old enough, and secondly, I'll be going to university soon, so I'll have very few opportunities to drive. It's better not to buy one now and just buy a better one after I graduate.
Chen Fanglan was extremely excited about buying her first car. She happily circled the car and waved to Shen Xuewei to get in.
"Weiwei, get in the car, your auntie will take you for a drive."
Shen Xuewei asked cautiously, "Auntie, do you have a driver's license?"
"Nonsense, why would I buy a car if I don't have a driver's license?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Xuewei finally felt somewhat relieved and reluctantly got into the car.
Ten minutes later, Shen Xuewei sat in the passenger seat, her whole body stiff, gripping the roof rails tightly, tears streaming down her face.
"Auntie, please, please let me off the bus!"
Shen Xuewei spoke these words with a trembling voice, staring at the rear of the car in front of her that was extremely close, feeling that her life was in danger.
Chen Fanglan turned the steering wheel, and the car quickly sped onto another lane, weaving past other vehicles before finally managing to reply to Shen Xuewei. "Oh, what are you afraid of? I already told you I have a driver's license. Just sit tight, we'll be back in Luli County soon."
Shen Xuewei closed her eyes in despair, feeling that every minute and every second was unbearable.
Chen Fanglan probably brought the movie plot into real life.
People who have just gotten their driver's licenses are either incredibly daring, driving at high speeds and overtaking other vehicles without any fear, like Chen Fanglan.
Alternatively, one can be cautious and practice driving slowly on less crowded roads before daring to increase speed, just like Shen Xuewei in her previous life.
Fortunately, Chen Fanglan had only recently obtained her driver's license and was still under the new driver protection period, so she drove back to Luli County without any major incidents.
As soon as the car stopped, Shen Xuewei couldn't wait to unbuckle her seatbelt, open the car door, squat down by the roadside, and vomit profusely.
She vowed that she would never get into Chen Fanglan's car again so easily.
Chen Fanglan sighed and shook her head, muttering, "Is my driving skill really that bad?"
She thought it was pretty good, much better than that kid Chen Fangyang.
Shen Xuewei ignored her. After vomiting, she felt empty but full of energy, and she went upstairs unsteadily.
After that, Shen Xuewei continued to stay in the county, diligently writing every day and keeping an eye on the stock market.
Seeing the stocks in her account constantly rising in value gave her even more energy to write.
The day before the scores were to be released, Shen Xuewei had already returned to Fuxing Village.
After spending one night in Fuxing Village, Chen Fangli took her back to Xiaoli Village on her bicycle the next day.
Grandpa Chen called them several times, asking them to come back together on the day they checked their scores.
With a college student on the way, Chen Fanglan and Chen Fangyang even returned home the day before, and the whole family was waiting for the results.
Shen Xuewei edited a text message using her admission ticket number and the last four digits of her ID card, pressed the send button, and sent the message. Several people crowded around, holding their breath and looking at Shen Xuewei's phone with expectant expressions.
"What score do you think Weiwei will get on this year's college entrance exam?"
"It should be no less than 610 points. Her scores in several mock exams and monthly exams have all been above 610 points, and she can even occasionally score above 620 points."
"What if I suddenly do poorly on the test this time?"
As soon as Chen Fangyang said this, the people in the room looked up and glared at him at the same time.
Chen Fanglan raised her hand and pushed him out.
"Go away, get out of here! Don't say such unlucky things. How can you curse people like that?"
Looking at the group, Chen Fangyang shamelessly walked back.
"It's my fault, okay? I won't say anything."
Shen Xuewei's phone rang, and a text message popped up, causing everyone's eyes to widen in surprise.
"Look, the scores are out! They're out!"
"Chinese 133, Math 109, English 125, Humanities 258, Total 625..."
Looking at the total score, Shen Xuewei breathed a sigh of relief and a bright smile appeared on her face.
Okay, with this score, she can choose from many schools, and it's almost ten points higher than her estimated score.
Based on last year's college entrance examination scores, she should be able to get into the university she wants.
The college entrance examination situation varies from province to province, with the difficulty of the exam papers varying.
If we look back ten years or so, after the information explosion, this score might not seem very high.
But by today's standards, it's already quite impressive.
It's worth noting that last year's top scorer in the provincial liberal arts exam didn't exceed 650 points, so this year's situation should be similar.
In her previous life, Shen Xuewei was severely unbalanced in her studies, and she was also bad at math. Although she did well in Chinese and humanities, she only scored nearly 480 points in the end.
With this score, you can basically only get into a junior college, and maybe some undergraduate colleges with slightly lower admission scores can admit you.
However, without exception, the tuition fees for these schools were outrageously high, beyond her means at the time.
So, after much deliberation, I chose to attend a junior college.
In this life, I started by learning English from scratch, which was a weak foundation, and changed my fate of only being able to score in the fifties.
Furthermore, with money in hand, she could attend tutoring classes during winter and summer vacations to catch up on math, which she wasn't very good at. Ren Qinan and her teachers would also explain problems to her regularly, which is why she was able to get this score.
Although she only scored 109 points, she had done her best.
This was her fatal weakness, and she was often called to the math teacher's office...
