Chapter 191 Promise to Keep a Secret
"The harvest is not bad, but not as much as yours." Tang Xinmei nodded in satisfaction. They didn't bother digging winter bamboo shoots. If they could dig up a few dozen kilograms, they would be lucky. They could sell them for a few yuan at the purchasing station, and their income would be much higher. "The food is ready, let's go eat."
"Thank you, Sister Xinmei." Qiao Mo put the winter bamboo shoots in the corner of the kitchen, washed up quickly, and then went to have dinner.
Just as they had cleared the table, the Tang siblings and the Wu brothers came over together. When Chen Ran and the others saw that they had arrived, they also came over with their written test papers and stools.
Qiao Mo and Tang Xinmei also went back to the room and took out their dictation papers. Everyone sat around the table, first checking the answers, then discussing the questions that had different answers, and finally estimating their own scores.
"Momo, you're really awesome." Seeing that Qiao Mo had estimated a high score of 360 in the four subjects, Chen Ran gave her a thumbs up.
"Momo, your efforts over the past two days have been in vain." Tang Xinmei looked at her enviously. With such a high score, she could go to any university. "Momo, do you really not want to go to Kyoto University or Tsinghua University?"
"I want to go back to Donghai. The climate there is more suitable for me." Qiao Mo shook her head. Her grandparents were all from the south, and she didn't want to go to the north to suffer from the cold.
"Then go to Tunghai University, it's also a famous school." Chen Ran encouraged. She was planning to apply to the law department of Tunghai University and wanted Qiao Mo to go to Tunghai University as well so that they could become alumni.
"Although Tunghai University is a famous university, its foreign language major is not as good as that of University of Foreign Languages. If possible, I still want to go to University of Foreign Languages." Qiao Mo shook her head and decided to put Tunghai University as her second choice.
"Brother Wang, Brother Wu, where do you want to go to school? What major do you want to study?" Chen Ran knew that what Qiao Mo said made sense, so he stopped trying to persuade him and turned to ask Wang Jiaming and Wu Shudong.
"I may not be qualified enough to go to Tunghai University, but I plan to put Tunghai University as my first choice. I hope that with luck I can meet the admission line of Tunghai University. My second choice will be Tunghai University." Wang Jiaming thought of his family's indifference and didn't want to stay in Hunan Province.
Seeing that they were all going to Donghai University, Wu Shudong hesitated for a moment and decided to go too: "I'll go to Donghai with you. My first choice is Donghai University, and my second choice is Donghai University of Science and Technology."
"Sister Xinmei, how about you?"
"I want to be a teacher in the future, but my degree is not ideal, so I plan to apply to Donghai Normal University." Tang Xinmei knew that the government subsidies for students in normal colleges were higher, and she wanted to study Chinese, so she chose a normal university without hesitation.
The Tang siblings and the Wu brothers also expressed their ideas based on their birthdates and asked everyone to help them choose similar schools.
After making the decision, everyone stopped worrying and chatted for a while before sending the Tang siblings and the Wu brothers back.
The few of them returned to the small kitchen, and Qiao Mo asked Wang Jiaming, "Brother Wang, how much is one pound of bamboo shoots if we send them to the purchasing station?"
"One pound for one yuan. We don't want the ones with broken skin or those that are too small." Wang Jiaming and Wu Shudong go up the mountain every winter to dig winter bamboo shoots and send them to the purchasing station. They are very familiar with the tricks there.
"I have a friend here who buys bamboo shoots. He charges two taels of silver per pound, but he doesn't want the ones with broken skin or those that are too small. Do you want to send them to him?" Qiao Mo asked tentatively.
