After walking around, the two got in the car and prepared to go back. Qin Yuhuan sighed softly: "This house is really lively. It can be decorated and lived in comfortably."
"Yes, I think the orientation of my uncle's house is also good. The neighbor next door just enlarged the windows, so the lighting is much better."
Neither Qin Yuhuan nor Ziyi could figure out what Qin Changping was thinking. He didn't have to pay for the decoration himself, he had everything, and yet he could still live in such a miserable state.
"So, whether it's my dad or my mom, they can actually live a good life, Xiaozi." Qin Yuhuan looked out the window. As the car started, the light outside the window gradually stretched into a long line. "They shouldn't be so kind, or... listen to me. I still say that. I have given solutions for every step they take, but they never listen to me."
"My mother... was sold to Western Province by her father. Later, she ran away. On the train, she saw the marriage advertisement my father had posted in the newspaper, and she married him."
Over the years, Qin Yuhuan has been the family's emotional trash can so many times that she can almost recall every detail of her parents' acquaintance and marriage. "After they got married, she discovered that my father had a hand disability and was psychologically inferior, so he had a bad temper and was abusive. She wanted a divorce. I was just born then, and she couldn't take care of me, so she ran away. She ran a long way, but couldn't bear to leave me, so she ran back and gave birth to Qin Yushu."
"If I could travel back in time, I would definitely tell my mother to run away and never come back. I should stay in Changping alone and not take me to Licheng."
"I've been attending school in Licheng since I was a child. My household registration was still here when I was young. Because of my household registration, I couldn't go to a good school. I almost couldn't even get into No. 1 Middle School. I worked hard and ranked first every year. I also took the top spot in the middle school entrance exam. My junior high school principal took all my awards and transcripts to the Education Bureau to fight for me to go to school."
"Later, my household registration was transferred here, but because I'm Han, I was deducted 20 points. A few years ago, my uncle and his family had a fight with my mother and threatened to report me to the Education Bureau as a 'gaokao immigrant.'"
Qin Yuhuan scoffed, "Isn't that ridiculous? I've always been top of my class. I have enough awards to cover a whole house. All my school records are in Licheng, proving I went there all the time. Yet they want to report me."
Somehow, Ziyi suddenly grasped a tricky point, "I want to ask a question off topic?"
Qin Yuhuan tilted his head: "What?"
"You've always had good grades. Many students from No. 1 Middle School's experimental class go on to Peking University and Tsinghua University every year. Why did you end up going to Jin University like me? Did you fail the exam?"
Jinan University is not bad, it is one of the top 3 universities, but the top 2 universities are either Tsinghua or Peking University, and there are more than three top 3 universities. There are at least five top 3 universities in China.
Ziyi chose Jin University because her parents lived in Jincheng, not because her scores were low. She wasn't obsessed with Peking University or Tsinghua University. So what about Qin Yuhuan? Even without the extra 20 points for being a minority, Qin Yuhuan would have been a solid candidate for Peking University or Tsinghua University.
Qin Yuhuan suddenly got stuck: ...
[Note 1: Uncle is the second uncle. The eldest uncle has passed away. The eldest aunt is the eldest uncle's wife. In the setting, she has remarried and is not the second uncle's wife.
2: Qin Yusu's intelligence is affected but she is not severely mentally retarded. She can take care of herself, communicate, live independently and normally, and does not need a guardian. However, her comprehension is not as good as that of normal people, her learning ability is relatively low, and she is mildly mentally retarded.
3. Gaokao migration refers to students who receive education in an educationally developed province and then move to an educationally underdeveloped region to take the Gaokao exam, thereby taking advantage of the fact that the exams are easier to prepare due to the educational disadvantages of the region, or that the standardized exams have lower cutoff scores.
