Xiao Huzi and Gu Xuan both breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Chen Xingling with expectant eyes.
Chen Xingling was in a complicated mood. He stopped and said, "Go drink some water first. I'll go to the kitchen to help with cooking."
After saying that, she went to the kitchen.
Gu Xuan: “…”? ? ?
Little Tiger laughed happily: "Aunt Xuan, let's continue reciting. I have read the annotations and can recite them. I like the sentence "The unexpected turn of events" the most. I thought I was going to be beaten the first day! Who knew that the unexpected turn of events finally allowed me to escape!"
Gu Xuan still couldn't react, and asked in a low voice: "Brother and sister-in-law - do you agree?"
"Yes!" Little Tiger narrowed his eyes and smiled: "They didn't object, no objection means they agreed! I've already said that I'm going to study, not to make trouble, mom and dad will not disagree. Other children are in their teens and teens before taking the college entrance examination, but I was working hard and silently striving for it when I was four years old. I'm so cute, so active and motivated, shouldn't mom and dad be happy and proud? Look! They all happily agreed."
Gu Xuan glanced at him and ruthlessly pointed out: "My eldest brother and sister-in-law both look helpless. I can't tell how happy and proud they are."
Forehead?
Little Tiger laughed apologetically: "It's okay, they just can't accept it temporarily. My parents have always been very receptive, they are not ordinary people. Once they get over it, everything will be fine."
Gu Xuan knew the true level of his nephew and whispered, "Others have studied for so many years, but they are still not as good as you who have only studied for more than a year."
"I have a bad memory!" Little Tiger told the truth.
He could remember everything he had seen, and if he wrote it down carefully, he thought he could remember it for a lifetime.
The math problems his father gave him were very interesting, unlike the simple math problems in the teacher's textbooks. He could remember them after calculating them once or twice, and he could also draw inferences from them, so it didn't take much effort for him.
Gu Xuan sighed softly upon hearing this, but did not dare to envy, because he could not envy it.
Talent is something God has given to us, and it is a gift from nature. It is not something that anyone can get just because they want it.
For example, even though she is extremely hardworking, busy from early in the morning to late at night, and most of the nights she has to study late at night and do exercises silently, but what she has learned for a few days is not as good as what her older nephew can learn.
Comparing yourself to others will only make you angry. You can't compare yourself to others, so you can't compare yourself to others.
The only thing I can do is to encourage myself and say that God rewards hard work. I have no talent, no problem, if I don't study hard, my grades will definitely get worse.
She had no intention of competing with her older brother and nephew, who were gifted with talent, and was content with her current situation - the teachers at school were teaching her carefully, there were people to take care of her and teach her at home, and she only needed to study hard.
Compared with her former classmates, she is considered quite lucky.
Many of my classmates were unable to continue their studies, most of them because their family conditions were too difficult to support a high school student.
She has always been supported by her elder brother to study. Even though she failed the college entrance examination last year, her elder brother and sister-in-law still insisted that she repeat the year and take the exam again instead of persuading her to give up if she failed and work for a few years before getting married.
In the past, I studied randomly without any method. I relied entirely on rote memorization from morning to night, but the effect of my study was not very good.
Since coming here, the study and living environment has become better, and the food and drink are more nutritious.
Not only that, her sister-in-law also secretly took her to deal with the difficult menstrual problems, so that she could study without any worries.
In addition, the eldest sister-in-law also gave her her college entrance examination notes from last year for her to review, summarizing the key points, difficulties and highlights of the exam clearly.
She no longer studied blindly like a headless fly, but followed her sister-in-law's notes. She grasped the method well and the learning effect was soon shown.
It’s just that she is not smart enough and easily forgets what she has learned, so she has only made some progress. At best, she can only be considered middle level in the class and cannot leap to the upper level for the time being.
Xiao Huzi just flipped through the notebook, then said he remembered it, and threw it back to her.
Hu Zi could do all the test questions now, and his score was higher than hers. That was why she dared to persuade her elder brother and sister-in-law to let her nephew have a try.
His level is good enough to get him into university, but he is asked to go back home and write “one, three” with a bunch of kids. Isn’t this a waste of talent?
Just when she was daydreaming, Xiaohuzi had recited another ancient Chinese article and asked her if she knew who wrote "On the Snake Catcher".
Gu Xuan: "...Uh--He looks like Han Yu, right?"
"No." Little Tiger explained seriously: "It's Liu Zongyuan from the Tang Dynasty. He is one of the Eight Great Masters of Tang and Song Dynasties, a prose writer, philosopher, and thinker. He is known as 'Liu Hedong', and is called 'Han Liu' together with Han Yu, 'Liu Liu' together with Liu Yuxi, and 'Wang Meng Wei Liu' together with Wang Wei, Meng Haoran, and Wei Yingwu."
Gu Xuan nodded: "I'll go look for it."
Little Tiger reminded: "This paragraph is in the notes my mother gave me. Aunt, you must remember it carefully later. Also, you haven't finished memorizing Zhou Dunyi's "On the Love of Lotus". You must remember to memorize it. Especially the two most important sentences - emerging from the mud without being stained, washing in the coolness without being coquettish."
"Um, which dynasty is it from?" Gu Xuan smiled bitterly, "I can only recite the Tang Dynasty at the moment, is it from the Later Tang Dynasty?"
Xiao Huzi shook his head: "No, it's from the Song Dynasty - the Northern Song Dynasty."
Gu Xuan could only answer, then picked up the book and continued to recite.
As Xiao Huzi gulped down the water, Tuqi asked, "Aunt Xuan, which university are you going to apply to in the future?"
The questions his nephew asked were always wild and unconventional, and Gu Xuan had already gotten used to them.
She shook her head: "I don't know yet... There is only Chongqing University here, but its score is too high. For teacher training majors, it may be a little lower. However, I still don't have the confidence to pass the exam."
"I'll help you review." Xiao Huzi suggested: "Let's take the entrance exam for Chongqing University together."
Gu Xuan felt his scalp tingling and shook his head: "With my current academic level, I can get into even the worst major in Chongqing University."
Little Tiger rolled his big round eyes and whispered, "It's okay, I will help you review. Let's take the Yuda exam."
"Yu Da is a very famous university in the south." Gu Xuan explained: "It has a long history and many majors. If you can pass the entrance exam, it will be a great honor."
Little Tiger shook his head: "No, if it was close to home, I could come home every day, skip classes - and I could be classmates with my mother."
Forehead?
Gu Xuan looked at the little guy in front of him and smiled softly.
No matter how smart my nephew is, he is only a four-year-old kid. Other children of his age may go to their mothers to act like a spoiled child every day. He is reluctant to leave home and hopes to go home for dinner every day and see his parents every day, so he wants to take the entrance exam to Chongqing University.
With his rapid learning speed, it should be no problem. But she... just didn't have much confidence in herself.
Little Tiger patted his bulging little chest and raised his chubby chin.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it!"
After a while, Li Ying came.
Everyone cleared the dishes and started to eat dinner.
Gu Qi is not an ordinary person. He accepts new things and new ideas very quickly.
"Since you have already agreed on the terms with Principal Li, then you can take control of it yourself. We can discuss the outcome after the midterm exam."
"Oh oh." Little Tiger buried his head in his food and muttered, "Then it's settled."
Chen Xingling looked at his son who was already interested and could take the food by himself. He didn't know what to say and just picked up a big chicken leg and gave it to him.
"Eat more, then go play in the yard for a while, then go upstairs and take a shower."
Little Tiger answered obediently.
After dinner, Gu Qi was helping his son memorize words when he suddenly remembered something.
"Yinmo, finish memorizing the words for these fruits and go upstairs to take a bath."
Little Tiger nodded and asked, "Would you like to take a shower with me?"
"Let's talk about it later." Gu Qi walked back to the study without even turning back, "I have something to discuss with your mother."
Chen Xingling was doing homework in the study. When she saw Gu Qi come in, she thought he was here to read a book, so she continued to write and ignored her.
"Xing'er, Lao Guo came to me and told me something the other day..." Gu Qi lowered his voice, "It's about his new house. Maybe you'll have to wait for a while."
"No?" Chen Xingling looked up suddenly and asked, "Why? He doesn't want to build it anymore?"
Gu Qi raised his eyebrows, then smiled slightly.
"How did you guess so quickly? To be specific, it's not that you don't want to build it, but you want to postpone it for a year or two."
Chen Xingling rolled his eyes and asked, "Why? Keep postponing it? Don't you want to build it? If you don't want to build it, you can just say so directly. It doesn't make any sense."
It was said before that it would be the end of January or the beginning of March of this year, and we had already made an appointment with the workers. Now that we were about to start construction, they suddenly said that it would be postponed!
