Chapter 135: The Face That Came to Your Door Is a Waste of Time 2
"Taotao, I heard that you returned to the city only after you were admitted to a university. Which university did you get into? If you return to the city, your fiancé will have to go back to the countryside. What will you do with your life in the future?" Auntie said with pretended worry.
Su Tao's grades weren't as good as Siqi's before, and even if he got into university now, it probably wouldn't be a high-end one. With the resumption of the college entrance exam, a large number of educated youth who passed the exam and returned to the city have been separated, resulting in many couples and families being torn apart. Aunt Fang Hanyu didn't believe He Chuan could get into university at all, and Su Tao had just admitted that they met him in the countryside. How could a farmer from the countryside possibly get into university? It was so difficult back then, and the acceptance rate was so low.
Aunt and others were waiting for Su Tao's answer with a gloating look on their faces. Just as Su Qi was about to explain, he was stopped by Su Tao.
"As for me, I didn't perform well enough. I didn't do very well on the test." Su Tao paused for a moment, then, noticing the satisfied expressions on the faces of his aunt and the others, continued, "I barely managed to rank third in the liberal arts department in City C and was accepted into Peking University."
My aunt and the others felt as if they had been punched. They felt a tightness in their chests and couldn't breathe. They said weakly, "I didn't perform well this time. Didn't I do very well in the test?"
Zhou Siqi was the quickest to respond, saying, "So you're going to live with your future brother-in-law? How pitiful~"
"No, He Chuan got the top scorer in science in H Province and will go to Peking University like me, so we won't be separated. Sorry for your worry." Su Tao said with a smile.
What? Provincial champion in science? Is that true?
Zhu Heng also didn't believe it. He had personally experienced the difficulty of the previous year and knew it very well. Moreover, after so many years of interruption, how could he possibly have scored so low on the exam? He questioned, "You guys are not lying, are you?"
He Chuan's sharp eyes swept over him instantly, and he said coldly: "You failed the exam because you don't have the ability, it doesn't mean that others can't pass the exam either."
Zhu Heng was suppressed by He Chuan's momentum and whispered, "I'm just saying. How can it be so difficult to get into Peking University, and two people get in at the same time?" He was still not convinced and didn't believe that He Chuan could get in.
Su Tao returned to her room and pulled out her and He Chuan's Peking University admission letters from her wallet and handed them over. The aunt and the others stared at the letters intently, as if trying to see a hole in them. In the end, they had no choice but to believe the truth, nearly spitting out blood in anger.
After Su Tao took back the admission letter and put it away, he admired the sullen faces of his aunt and the others while eating his meal happily, adding more dishes to He Yanzhi from time to time.
Little He Yanzhi looked at the bloody battlefield and ate her meal silently with understanding.
Su Xu and Su Qi were equally shocked. They only knew their daughter and son-in-law had been admitted to Peking University, but they hadn't realized their daughter had actually placed third in the liberal arts department in City C. Their future son-in-law was even more impressive, having achieved the top scorer in science in Province H. What was a provincial champion? There were only a few provinces in China, and provincial champions were even rarer.
Su Xu and Su Xiao suddenly wondered what kind of luck their daughter had. A koi? She'd find a son-in-law as good as her in the next village.
Su Yu had originally had some issues with He Chuan, but after being completely swayed by He Chuan's impressive moves, she no longer had any issues. Where could one find such an outstanding son-in-law? It was right for his daughter to be brought home and settled down earlier. Didn't he notice the jealousy from the people across the street?
I have to say that Aunt Su Tao’s fighting ability is still very strong. She has fought with her mother for so many years and she quickly adjusted her state.
