Chapter 194 Examination
The squab and barbecued pork rice that they packed home received unanimous praise from the old couple and Wang Xiuren.
Although it took a little while to be packed and the skin of the pigeon became a little soft, the overall flavor was still very good.
"This restaurant is good. Let's go there for a meal as a family this weekend." Wang Xiuren said as he chewed a piece of honey-glazed barbecued pork and swallowed it.
This decision was supported by the whole family.
Since returning from Huizhou last year, Lin Qiu would take his whole family to eat at any good restaurant he found. Whenever there was a holiday, he would take Wang Shan to other places to collect materials and sketch.
Now my family has become accustomed to eating out and traveling.
…
There are only eight days left on the countdown to the high school entrance examination on the blackboard in the classroom.
Wang Shan felt that the days passed very slowly and she wished she could take the exam right away so that she could use the vacation to go out and see the world.
When I was young, I always complained that time passed too slowly.
Only when I reached middle age and became a parent did I realize that time flies. In the blink of an eye, my daughter is about to go to high school.
On the day of the high school entrance examination, after Lin Qiu and his wife sent their daughter to the examination room, they went for a walk in the park near the school.
Wang Xiuren saw the old men and women singing and dancing in the park, so he started a conversation: "In another 20 years, when we are old, we will also go to the garden to sing and dance."
Lin Qiu nodded in agreement, "You sing and dance, and I'll just sit by and watch."
Lin Qiu felt that he would never have the courage to sing and dance in public, and he couldn't even imagine it.
Wang Xiuren shook his head helplessly, "Do I have to move a rocking chair for you so that you can sit aside and watch?"
"It's not impossible." Lin Qiuguang thought about it and felt happy. "If it's summer, please prepare a parasol and a fan for me, and buy me a popsicle."
Lin Qiu remembered that when he first came to Pengcheng, he pushed his bicycle and sold popsicles from street to street.
At that time, I was not afraid of the sun or the heat, and I was only thinking about making money. Even when I was thirsty, I was reluctant to take out a popsicle to quench my thirst.
Now I really don’t know how I managed to hold on.
"Here, have an ice cream!"
Wang Xiuren saw a store in front of him, walked quickly there, bought two ice creams, walked back, and then delivered the ice creams to Lin Qiu.
"You should buy two ice creams." Lin Qiu took the ice cream, tore open the bag, took a bite, and held it in his mouth.
The soft cream melted in his mouth, the cool and sweet feeling made Lin Qiu relax his brows.
Wang Xiuren was not afraid of freezing his teeth. He took a big bite of the mung bean popsicle and chewed it. "I like mung bean popsicles. They are refreshing."
The two people walked slowly along the shade of the trees and soon finished their popsicles.
Wang Xiuren saw someone selling watermelons, so he ran over and bought two slices. After he finished eating the watermelons and found a place to wash his hands, it was time for the first exam.
If you didn't know, you would think they were here for a date.
"Let's go, Shanshan will be leaving the examination room soon!" Lin Qiu urged as he wiped the watermelon juice from Wang Xiuren's mouth with a tissue.
After the bell rings, you cannot leave the examination room until you have submitted your test paper.
Wang Shan hates squeezing in a crowd, so she waits until almost everyone has left before slowly walking out.
Seeing the parents waiting at the school gate, he ran over, his face showing joy that he couldn't hide: "The Chinese test was not difficult, and I think the composition was well written."
"This is a good start!" Wang Xiuren grinned at his daughter.
Lin Qiu was also very happy, but she still reminded her daughter: "The math questions in the afternoon are the easiest to drop your score. No matter how difficult the questions are, you must check them carefully. The simpler the questions, the easier it is to make mistakes."
Wang Shan calmed her somewhat restless heart and nodded in agreement.
Lin Qiu was actually quite relieved because Wang Shan's grades had always been very stable with almost no major fluctuations.
In fact, children like these are the ones that their parents can be most at ease with. Otherwise, their academic performance would fluctuate greatly, which would make parents very tired.
The family got in the car while talking and went straight home. Zhou Qing had already prepared dinner and was waiting for them at home.
After dinner, Wang Shan was allowed to rest for a while, and then sent to the examination room at the appointed time as she had another exam in the afternoon.
The couple accompanied their children to take the exam for three consecutive days. Such a big scene attracted the attention of other parents and students. After all, these days, everyone is busy with work, and few parents would accompany their children to take the exam for three consecutive days.
Wang Shan was very satisfied. She enjoyed the feeling of being cherished by her parents.
After three days of exams, Wang Shan slept for a whole day at home and then waited for the results.
At the same time, Wang Xiuren faced another exam after more than ten years.
Carpentry is very simple nowadays. You can become a master by learning from a master for two years. Some people even dare to call themselves carpenters after only learning how to hang ceilings. But getting a carpentry certificate is not an easy thing.
Wang Xiuren has basically no problem with practical operation ability, but theoretical knowledge is a difficult thing for him.
He is quite self-aware and has a clear understanding of his own cultural level.
So Lin Qiu took Wang Shan's high school entrance exam more seriously and accompanied Wang Xiuren to read every night.
Whenever Wang Xiuren was distracted, he felt a little ashamed when he saw Lin Qiu sitting next to him reading seriously.
It is totally wrong that he caused his wife to stay up all night to take the carpentry certificate exam, but he was actually distracted.
He could only bury his head and struggle to the end with those boring theoretical knowledge.
After studying hard for nearly half a month, I took the carpenter certificate exam.
The examination for the carpenter certificate is divided into two parts: the theoretical examination for the manual carpenter professional qualification and the operational skills assessment, which can be completed in one day.
When Wang Xiuren was taking the theoretical knowledge test, he felt like he had almost pulled out all his hair. After the test, he walked towards Lin Qiu with a pale face.
In fact, after coming to Pengcheng, he has worked really hard, from working for others to now contracting his own construction site.
Others may not know how much he has paid in the process, but Lin Qiu, the person next to him, knows it clearly.
So while waiting for the results, she held Wang Xiuren's hand and comforted him: "No matter how you do in the exam, you will always be the best in my heart!"
After these words came out, Wang Xiuren felt that the carpenter certificate was no longer important, but he whispered: "I think I should be able to pass."
Fortunately, there are not many people taking the carpentry certificate exam, and unlike the high school entrance examination results, you don’t have to wait for many days. You can know the results on the same day.
After returning home and having lunch, Wang Shan learned that her father’s test results would be out in the afternoon, so she wanted to go with him to see the results.
The old couple also joined in the fun.
So, the whole family went straight to the carpentry certificate examination site.
The examiner who announced the results teased, "Wang Xiuren, did you know that you got first place in the theory exam and specially called your family over to congratulate you?"
