"That's right, he's the top scholar in the country. In his time, our Xinyi would have been an official in the imperial court, and might even become a prime minister in the future!"
Fu Bailu took out a newspaper and handed it to Yan Hua, "This is what I bought earlier. I'll give you one."
"I bought it too." Mrs. Yan Hua didn't answer.
She and Political Commissar Xu got the newspaper very early and read the report carefully.
I know that in this report, Qiao Xinyi said that some words were deliberately meant to embarrass her ex-father. Once this newspaper came out, his ex-father probably didn't have the face to leave the house.
Yan Hua chatted with Qiao Xinyi for a while and then went back. After all, she also took the time to come here to deliver a message.
Because of the news, Qiao Xinyi did not go out at noon to buy a ticket for Fu Bailu. After one o'clock, waves of guests came to her house.
Even the Minister of Education came to her home in person, gave her a bonus, and took a photo with Qiao Xinyi.
After seeing off the last few guests in the evening, Qiao Xinyi sat on the sofa with a sore throat.
Fu Qingshan walked briskly back home with his hands behind his back. As soon as he entered the door, he saw his wife and son slumped on a recliner in the yard, looking half dead.
Fu Linzhou fanned her with a palm-leaf fan, and Fu Zeyu put small pieces of cut watermelon into her mouth.
When Fu Qingshan, such a big man, came in, none of the two kids even glanced at him.
"So tired?" Fu Qingshan was suddenly amused and a little hurt.
"I'm not physically tired, but mentally tired. A large group of people came in batches, and I said the same thing over and over again. I smiled for the whole afternoon and my face was almost stiff." Qiao Xinyi sighed.
Fu Bailu smiled and continued, "I got a lot of bonuses, and they are all in envelopes. I haven't opened them yet to see how much money is in them."
"It's at least a few dozen yuan, and at most no more than one or two hundred yuan." Fu Qingshan said as he was about to take over Fu Linzhou's job, but the child glared at him, pouted, ran away and stood in another direction.
"You are truly my good nephew." Fu Qingshan had never received such treatment.
He moved a chair and sat down next to Qiao Xinyi and asked her, "Do you remember Minister Zhu?"
"I remember." Qiao Xinyi didn't have Alzheimer's disease. If she hadn't met Minister Zhu in Tongan County, Qiao Xinyi wouldn't have been able to get her junior high and high school diplomas so easily.
"He said he wanted to invite you to give a speech at the No. 1 Middle School in the city and Tong'an County High School to share your college entrance examination results with everyone and exchange your study methods and experiences with everyone."
Fu Qingshan is not the kind of person who makes decisions on his own. "If you agree, I'll call him back and ask him to arrange a time. If you don't want to go, I'll use the excuse that the baby is too young to be alone."
Minister Zhu is in the next city, which is in the same province as the provincial capital but a different city.
If someone else had made this invitation, Qiao Xinyi would most likely have refused given her current state of being tired.
But when the person turned out to be Minister Zhu, Qiao Xinyi agreed without even thinking about it.
Qiao Xinyi deeply respects leaders like Minister Zhu, who has always been committed to the cause of education and cultivating talents for the country. If he wants to do something, he must have his reasons.
After all, when Qiao Xinyi came here, strictly speaking, the first person to extend an olive branch to her was Minister Zhu.
But Qiao Xinyi really didn't expect that she agreed so readily, which made her almost busy like a top during the summer vacation.
She and Fu Bailu took Xiao Zhou and Xiao Yu to stay in their hometown for five days, during which time they went back to burn incense for Fu Qingshan's mother and ancestors.
Just after I came back and rested for two days, the principal of the key high school in the provincial capital came to visit with the director of the agricultural machinery factory.
We also invited Qiao Xinyi to give lectures at schools to share her learning experience.
For the sake of the director of the agricultural machinery factory, Qiao Xinyi agreed.
Just as they agreed, the director of the textile factory came to visit again the next day.
By the time Qiao Xinyi received the admission letter from Peking University, she had almost visited all the schools in the provincial capital.
Fu Qingshan started his vacation on August 20th, and he bought an early train ticket for the 21st.
Early in the morning on the 20th, Fu Qingshan drove to the post office and packed up some things that were difficult to take on the train but had to be taken to Beijing.
As soon as Fu Qingshan left the house, Mrs. Zhu came.
"Old Zhu, I heard from Captain Fu that you are going to Beijing tomorrow?"
Mrs. Zhu came with gifts for the four children. When Qiao Xinyi saw this, she knew she had something to ask her.
"Yes, I bought a train ticket for tomorrow." Qiao Xinyi nodded and asked Fu Linzhou to bring a chair for the guest to sit on. At the same time, she asked, "How is your Xiaoyu's hand recovery?"
Zhu Xiaoyu is the name of Zhu's sister-in-law's son.
"I've removed the plaster. The doctor said my hand has recovered well and I'll be able to hold a pen when school starts."
There was no smile on Mrs. Zhu's face when she said this, "Xinyi, I came here today to ask an unwelcome favor. I would like you to help me persuade the child and encourage him."
"Me?" Qiao Xinyi was slightly stunned.
"Yes." Mrs. Zhu nodded gently. "The child has always admired you. He even asked your little boat for a photo. It was the photo of the three airplanes you won. He also started to be particularly interested in studying after the National Day last year."
"In the last semester, his grades improved rapidly, and he did better each time on the exams." Mrs. Zhu couldn't help but shed tears when she said this, and she quickly lowered her head to wipe away her tears.
"The scores of the children in the family compound who did well in the exams this time were lower than Xiaoyu's in the last few exams before the college entrance examination. So if it weren't for his grandmother, Xiaoyu would definitely have been admitted to university this year."
"His grandmother was making fun of the neighbors in her hometown, but it seemed like her words touched Xiaoyu. When his father and I were chatting at home last night about him repeating a grade this year, he suddenly told us that he would not repeat a grade. He said that he was not destined to do so, no matter how hard he tried, it would not work."
This sentence is like an invisible weapon to Zhu's wife, a mother.
The more Zhu's wife spoke, the more she cried. "His father said he was old-fashioned and that repeating a grade was non-negotiable. Xiaoyu said that if he was forced to repeat a grade, he would die."
If it weren't for the previous incident of jumping off the building, Captain Zhu and Mrs. Zhu might not believe such words from a child when he was angry.
But Zhu Xiaoyu really jumped off the building, and his whole family knew that he really dared to die.
"I talked to Xiaoting, and we both felt that Xiaoyu had worked so hard to get into college. Xiaoting said that her brother had told her before that he realized it too late and that he might not be able to get into his ideal university even if he worked hard for a year.
However, he planned to take the college entrance examination first, and then study hard, so as to get into the university he wanted to go to when he took the postgraduate entrance examination. ”
"Xiaoting didn't find out which university her brother wanted to go to, but seeing how much he loved the photo of the airplane, Xiaoting and I guessed that he wanted to go to a key university like aviation or science and engineering."
"Since he has a goal in mind, he shouldn't give up so easily." Qiao Xinyi said, "For him, he can just work hard for another year and then go straight to his ideal university."
"Xiaoting and I think so too." Mrs. Zhu nodded repeatedly.
The mother and daughter chatted for half the night last night and did come up with some clues.
"Xiaoting said that her elder brother couldn't face the teachers and classmates at school because he felt too embarrassed." Since Mrs. Zhu came to ask Qiao Xinyi for help, she naturally didn't hide it from Qiao Xinyi.
"Xiaoyu had a stomachache on the day of the exam, but he didn't want to give up the exam, so he kept trying to hold it in. Later..."
