Chapter 224 Ice Disaster
After Wang Shan collapsed once, she quickly recovered with the comfort of Lin Qiu and Wang Xiuren.
The focus continues to be on painting, but cultural studies are also taken very seriously.
Lin Qiu and Wang Xiuren became increasingly concerned about their daughter's mental state, and Lin Qiu even went to Ayun to seek advice.
Maybe Ayun mentioned this matter inadvertently when she was talking to Ahao on the phone, so Ahao even made a QQ call to Wang Shan to share with her how he overcame the psychological barriers caused by fluctuations in his grades.
Wang Shan listened carefully to Ah Hao's advice, tried hard to calm down and relax, and even went for a half-hour jog in the community every morning.
Then she found that her learning efficiency was constantly improving, and during her daily jogging, she was able to capture scenes that she had not noticed before, and her perception was also enhanced.
So, she no longer focused on the test results and focused more on the problems that arose.
As parents, Lin Qiu and Wang Xiuren were the first to notice the change in their daughter's mentality.
Seeing their daughter's mentality developing in a good direction, they were sincerely happy and specially treated Ayun and his wife to a delicious meal to repay Ahao for his advice.
The days of hard work are plain and fulfilling, and in the blink of an eye it is New Year's Day again.
According to the notice on the time arrangement of examination work in Guangdong Province in 2008, the examination time for art subjects is January 13.
As a candidate from Pengcheng City, Wang Shan was assigned to the Dongfeng East Road Campus of Yangcheng University of Technology, which was a bit far from her home, so Lin Qiu and Wang Xiuren took Wang Shan to stay at the Yangcheng China Hotel two days in advance.
The hotel is close to the test site, making travel convenient.
On the day of the exam, Lin Qiu and Wang Xiuren were more nervous than they were when they took the exam themselves, but they pretended to be calm for fear of adding pressure to their daughter.
Wang Shan, on the other hand, felt calm.
She resolutely and bravely embarked on the journey that she had to complete, a journey that she loved and pursued.
The color test lasted for three hours in the morning, which was Wang Shan's forte, so after the test, a smile appeared on her calm face.
Needless to say, Lin Qiu and Wang Xiuren felt much more at ease.
In the afternoon, there are exams on sketching and quick sketching. The sketching exam lasts three hours and the quick sketch exam lasts half an hour.
Sketching and quick sketching have been Wang Shan's focus in painting over the past six months, so she thinks she has performed quite well, especially in quick sketching. It turns out that Mr. Guo's special training is very effective.
Even so, after the exam, she found herself extremely calm.
Lin Qiu and Wang Xiuren could not get any information from their daughter's calm face. Although they had confidence in her, they were still somewhat nervous.
However, neither of them asked any further questions. They took her to a nearby hotel for a delicious meal and then rushed back overnight.
Because Wang Shan has to catch up with tomorrow's class.
Normally, they should have winter vacation at this time, but since they are about to face the college entrance examination, the school requires them to make up for the winter vacation.
The winter of this year seemed to be particularly cold, and even the temperature in Pengcheng dropped a lot. According to statistics from the Meteorological Bureau, this was the year with the lowest winter temperature in Pengcheng since 1995.
At the beginning, many southerners who had not seen such beautiful snow scenes for many years ran outdoors to happily take photos and repost them on Weibo, thinking that this was the Chinese version of "Frozen".
What no one expected was that what everyone was waiting for was not the lovely Anna, but Elsa with frozen tentacles.
The ice and snow cover, obstructed power grid and paralyzed traffic have had a direct and serious impact on production, life and transportation in most parts of the south.
Zhou Mei even called the old couple to tell them that it was freezing raining in their hometown, and that there was thick ice on the roofs and roads, and even icicles hanging on the eaves. She told the old couple not to rush back to their hometown, but to wait until the weather got better and the ice melted.
When the old couple heard that their home had been hit by an ice disaster, they hurriedly asked about their children.
Zhou Mei patiently told them about the children's situations.
Lin Huan had his holiday early, and when he came back, it had just started to drizzle, and the road was not icy, so he got home smoothly. If he had two more days, he would have been stuck in school.
Lin Rui was in junior high school at home. After the Meteorological Bureau announced that there would be a long period of freezing rain, the Education Bureau organized the final exams early, so he was not affected by the natural disaster.
Lin Min and Lin Rui, a brother and sister, were the most affected. Not only did they experience a power outage at school for several days, but the school eventually could no longer hold on. They had to walk fifty or sixty miles carrying their schoolbags and dragging their suitcases to get home.
The old couple felt relieved when they heard that their children were at home.
They told Zhou Mei and the children to be safe and not to go out because the road was icy and if they accidentally fell, they probably wouldn't be able to get to the hospital.
Zhou Mei and several children agreed.
Then both parties hung up the phone.
In the next few days, the old couple watched TV and paid attention to the disaster situation in their hometown.
As the year draws closer, most migrant workers are eager to return home, and going back to their hometown to celebrate the New Year is their common wish.
However, with the airport closed and the highway blocked, migrant workers flocked to Yangcheng Railway Station.
However, due to the obstruction of key railway transportation lines, 136 trains traveling south and north were unable to run, resulting in the Yangcheng Railway Station, which could only accommodate 40,000 people, having 400,000 people stranded, with noise and shouting heard one after another.
"It's really crowded and noisy." Lin Ting couldn't help but sigh when he saw the news report.
Zhou Qing watched the crying child being squeezed on TV and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, "What a sin! How could such a disaster happen out of nowhere?"
"I guess all the trees in my hometown are frozen, not to mention the rapeseed in the fields!" Lin Ting also sighed.
"This damn God, how can we farmers who only know how to farm live?" Zhou Qing cursed the sky, "Now the electricity in my house has been out for a week, and all the candles on the street have been sold out. I don't even know if there will be electricity on New Year's Eve."
"The news said that the power bureau has sent a lot of workers to repair the damage. It's really not easy in this icy and snowy weather."
"Yes, it's not easy for anyone. People at home are looking forward to their children coming home from work, those who work outside are worried about their families affected by the disaster, and those who are repairing the circuits are also worried about their families. I hope the ice disaster will end soon!" Zhou Qing clasped his hands together, chanted "Amitabha", and prayed for the gods' blessings.
