Chapter 499: Government-sponsored Study Abroad



Early the next morning, Zhou Ya was about to go out to buy breakfast for herself and Xu Jiangang.

Then five elderly people, Lin Shulan, Zhou Baoguo, Shen Qingsong, Grandpa Rong and Grandma Rong, came hurriedly with the triplets, carrying breakfast.

When Lin Shulan first heard Shen Chuning talk about Zhou Ya and Xu Jiangang last night, she was happy because Zhou Ya finally let go of her worries and started a new life.

But later, as she lay in bed, the more she thought about it, the more scared she became.

According to Ningning, when Xu Jiangang arrived, those vagrants were already ready to kill Yaya to silence her.

When the third brother arrived, Xu Jiangang had been stabbed twice in the stomach by the vagrant.

She couldn't imagine what the consequences would be if Xu Jiangang arrived a little later, or the third brother arrived even later.

With such fear in mind, Lin Shulan hardly slept the entire night.

Even in the middle of the night, she wanted to rush to the hospital to see Zhou Ya and Xu Jiangang.

But thinking about it, if she came to the hospital at that time, it would only disturb Zhou Ya and Xu Jiangang's rest, so she endured it.

But she got up early this morning and cooked some shredded chicken porridge with chicken soup and chicken and brought it over.

"Yaya, are you okay?" When Lin Shulan saw Zhou Ya, she immediately looked her over carefully from head to toe.

Zhou Ya felt warm at heart when she saw Lin Shulan's concerned look. "Second Aunt, I'm fine. Nothing's wrong at all."

Lin Shulan was relieved to see that Zhou Ya was really fine and had no skin injuries.

Zhou Baoguo added, "Yaya, you don't know that your second aunt stayed up all night in bed after she found out about you last night. She got up before five this morning and said that you and Xiao Xu were either frightened or injured, and she had to get you some good supplements."

Lin Shulan slapped Zhou Baoguo in anger, "You old man, are you out of words? Why are you talking to a child like this?"

Zhou Baoguo was justified in being scolded by the old woman this time, "Then you have done these things for the child, shouldn't you let the child know?"

Zhou Baoguo is not the type of person who would silently sacrifice for his children.

He may not ask for anything in return, but he feels that what he has done for his child must be known by the child.

What's more, he said this not only to let Zhou Ya know how worried Lin Shulan was about him, but also to show off how good his wife was.

They were not the only family in their village who had lost brothers and were left with helpless children.

But other families’ daughters-in-law, if they are a little better, would just give their nephews and nieces something to eat and make sure they don’t starve to death.

The bad ones, after giving their nephews and nieces a bite to eat, not only treat them like slaves, but also take their anger out on them for every turn, causing the men to suffer as well.

How could there be someone like his wife who truly treats her niece as her own daughter?

Zhou Baoguo felt particularly proud when he thought that he had such a good wife.

After Lin Shulan glared at him again, she was too lazy to pay attention to him and turned to ask about Xu Jiangang's situation.

Xu Jiangang quickly tried to sit up and greet his elders.

Naturally, the elders stopped him immediately and told her to just lie down.

Xu Jiangang smiled cheerfully and said, "Aunt, I'm actually fine. Although I was stabbed twice, my internal organs were not injured. I have thick skin and flesh, so I can just rest for a few days."

Lin Shulan was filled with gratitude towards Xu Jiangang, and naturally expressed her thanks generously.

Xu Jiangang felt a little embarrassed. He rubbed the back of his head and said, "Auntie, don't be so polite. There is one thing you may not know. I..."

He swallowed his words halfway through and looked at Zhou Ya, "Can I speak?"

Zhou Ya instantly understood what he wanted to say to his uncle and aunt.

Her face instantly flushed, but she still nodded gently and responded, "Yeah."

"Hehe..." Xu Jiangang grinned, laughing happily like a fool, "Auntie, let me introduce myself to you again. My name is Xu Jiangang, and I'm Comrade Zhou Ya's boyfriend!"

Xu Jiangang's happy and honest appearance immediately made all the elders in the room laugh happily.

The confused triplets looked at each other, then at this adult, and then at that adult.

Although they didn't understand why the adults were laughing, they also smiled happily with their eight newly grown small teeth showing.

Shen Chu Ning continued to live a life between school and home, and felt that time passed very quickly.

That day, Shen Chuning just came out of the laboratory and ran into Wang Yunxian who came to see her excitedly.

"Ningning, good news! The list of students who will be sponsored to study abroad is out, and your name is on it!"

This is indeed good news, but it is not a surprise to Shen Chuning.

When the experiment of improving mobile phone batteries was successful, Wang Yunxian attributed all the credit to her.

It was said at that time that if she wanted to study abroad on government scholarship in the future, she would have the opportunity.

On the triplets’ first birthday, Wang Yunxian also mentioned that the number of government-sponsored overseas study places for their class was almost confirmed.

At that time, Shen Chu Ning also thought about whether she should go if she was included in the quota.

But in the end I never made up my mind.

Wang Yunxian saw her hesitation, and her excitement instantly turned into nervousness.

Shen Chuning is the best student in their class and also his most proud student in all his years of teaching.

He really hopes that Shen Chuning can study abroad, bring back advanced Western technology, and lead the development of the motherland's communications industry.

But he also knew the situation of Shen Chuning's family. There were old people and young children. It was too late to let Shen Chuning go abroad to study for such a long time...

"Ningning, you should think carefully about studying abroad. Our country is far behind the West in terms of communication technology. We need a leader who has mastered advanced Western technology to come back and lead our people of insight to make achievements in communications and catch up with the West."

As the two walked towards the school gate, Wang Yunxian analyzed with Shen Chuning.

Shen Chu Ning nodded and said solemnly: “Professor, don’t worry, I will definitely consider it carefully.”

In the evening, while everyone was having dinner, Shen Chu Ning told everyone about this.

After she finished speaking, the dinner table suddenly fell silent.

Finally, it was little Ruirui who broke the silence first, "Mom, what does studying abroad mean?"
