"Yes, your sister is going to college." Sun Rongfang said to her son.
"No, with her grades, can she get in? We might as well call her class teacher and ask." Xie Changrong never believed that his daughter could get into medical school, or rather, he didn't want to believe it.
The neighbor next door suddenly came to their house and shouted, "Mr. Xie, your family is amazing, you have a talented girl, your Yingying got the first place in the exam."
"First?" asked Hsieh Chang-jung.
"Top scorer in science. Don't you know? Hasn't your Yingying come home yet? All the teachers in her school are saying that your Yingying got the top scorer in science." The neighbor laughed loudly and was very happy. In the future, he could boast to everyone that he was the neighbor who was the top scorer in science.
Bang! The microphone in Sun Rongfang's hand fell to the ground.
Xie Changrong's mouth was wide enough to swallow a large duck egg.
"Dad, my sister got the first place in the exam. What should we do?" Xie Youtian asked while pulling his father's clothes.
"No, no, no." Xie Changrong said with a cold sweat, "Yingying just came home, and she didn't say she got the top score in science."
...
...
"How many points did she get in the exam?"
"Seven hundred and twenty-one."
"That's right." The neighbor slapped his thigh. "Their teacher said that 721 points is the score for the top student in science."
"Did you see it wrong?" Xie Changrong turned to ask his wife.
Sun Rongfang picked up her daughter's report card and looked at it carefully, then showed it to her husband and neighbors.
The neighbor glanced and said, "That's true, Mr. Xie, congratulations!"
Xie Changrong was completely stunned. After all, his previous plan was not to send his daughter to medical school, but to send her to a teachers' college or to let her get married.
What are the benefits of going to medical school? It seems that there is no benefit to him. Only his wife wants his daughter to be a doctor. He only wants his son to be a doctor. So his wife is happy that his daughter becomes a doctor, but Xie Changrong is at a loss.
"Yingying, can she go to medical school with this grade? What do you mean by top medical class in the country?" Xie Changrong pulled his neighbor aside and asked.
The neighbor thought he was stupid, looked at him and said, "Mr. Xie, is that what you are worried about? You are just too happy for your daughter. The top scorer in science, which university would not want her? They will definitely scramble for her! Your Yingying can go to study wherever she wants."
It doesn't matter where my daughter goes to school. Xie Changrong turned around and grabbed his wife and said, "Let Yingying go to the Normal College. He said he wants Yingying wherever she goes."
When the neighbor heard him say this, he glanced at the couple and said, "You should think carefully about which university to let Yingying go to."
Sun Rongfang only remembered what Liu Hui said: "Her class teacher said that she has applied to the medical school and that cannot be changed. No matter how she scores on the exam, she will be accepted to that school."
Liu Hui regretted it so much!
The chattering outside made Xie Wanying realize that she, not Zhao Wenzong, was the top scorer in science. No wonder Liu Hui looked at her with a very wrong look in the school office.
Outside, my parents continued to argue.
Xie Changrong said to his wife, "How can our family afford to send Yingying to medical school? I just asked my neighbor, and he said that medical school takes five years. Normal colleges have three and four years. Wouldn't it be better for Yingying to study for three years and then work?"
"Didn't I tell you? It can't be changed. Her class teacher said so." Sun Rongfang said.
"It doesn't matter. The top student in science can go wherever he wants. That's what the neighbors said." Xie Changrong confronted his wife.
