Forty-ninth published

After seeing off the two teachers who came to recruit students, Tao Xiuying felt very moved that her children were gradually growing up.

Chen Xi said: "If the fourth sister goes to Nanyang No. 1 High School to study, there will be a bonus!"

The Chen family naturally ignored the requirement of getting a bonus, and they were very confident in Chen Wan's ability.

Chen's mother said, "It doesn't matter whether you give a bonus or not. The key is whether it depends on whether it fits or not." After that, she complained again: "The school now doesn't know what's wrong. You just use the money to talk about it. What will happen in the future if this continues!"

Although Chen's mother only has the level of education in junior high school, she is also a sensible person and is never confused about big and small matters.

Although she takes money very carefully, compared with her child's future, money is just a trivial matter.

In Chen Ma's eyes, money is earned by blood and sweat, and wasting money is absolutely not allowed, but no matter how much money you pay for your children's future, it is worth it.

A poor family in a remote rural area who supports four children to study, can be imagined.

Chen Qiaoshan was silent. Many people in later generations saved money and spent their entire lives. In order to send their children to study abroad, they would do whatever they wanted to sell their houses and cars. Many of them were bankrupt. Perhaps the ending was not so good, but they had no regrets. This was Chinese-style parents.

Westerners may find it difficult to understand this practice, but they are willing to accept it. A word of pity for parents in the world expresses the ups and downs of being a parent.

"The second brother has a bonus for the college entrance examination, and the fourth sister has a bonus for the junior high school entrance examination. It turns out that studying can make money!" Xiao Wu's sigh was abrupt, and his words were a little naive, but it made the Chen family laugh.

Chen's mother rubbed the little girl's forehead and said angrily: "Yes, studying can make money. When can you make money for your family?"

Xiaowu said slyly: "It's enough for the second brother and the third sister and the fourth sister to make money. With money at home, I don't need me to make money!"

"You damn girl, you are just too jealous!"

...

The next morning, just after breakfast, Chen Jianguo rushed over on his motorcycle.

"Second uncle, is someone looking for my second brother again?" Xiaowu was very happy. Her second brother was the most proud of her. The teachers and classmates at the school knew that her brother was the top scorer, and she was very angry in the class now.

"Xiao Wu, go and call Qiao Shan out!" Chen Jianguo was very anxious this time. He used to come here and left after reading a message. This time it was very different from usual.

Chen Qiaoshan heard the noise in the room and walked out with a crutch and asked, "Second uncle, what's wrong?"

"There is a school for you!"

Chen Qiaoshan was a little surprised. He would go to school to fill out his application form in two days. What would he do to him now? He asked: "Is it my class teacher or my classmates looking for me?"

"It's not your high school, it's a university. The teacher from Tsinghua University called you!" Uncle Er didn't stutter this time, and said everything he should say in one breath.

When the Chen family was exposed, they had different expressions when they heard the news. Tao Xiuying was very happy, but Chen Weiguo's face was a little unnatural.

The three sisters of the Chen family were all very excited. That was Tsinghua University. No matter how poor or remote the countryside, even if they were students, they knew that it was the highest institution of learning in China.

"Uncle Second, why don't you push me? My legs are not convenient, so I won't bother back and forth!" Chen Qiaoshan didn't want to answer this call. On the one hand, he was concerned about Chen's father's mood, and on the other hand, there was no need to deal with this. Since he had already made a decision, why bother to go for a waste of time?

The second uncle didn't say anything, staring at Chen Weiguo. After all, he was the head of the family in name, and parents still had to make decisions about such a big deal. Tao Xiuying didn't say anything. She had no idea about which university her son went to.

Chen Weiguo said, "You might as well go and have a look, after all, they have called. You are not young anymore, so you can make your own decisions wherever you go!"

Chen Qiaoshan didn't know what to say, so he got into his second uncle's car directly, but the sisters had a small dispute. At most, he could take another person with a motorcycle. There were too many monks and too little porridge. All three of them wanted to go over and watch the fun. However, Chen's mother spoke, "Don't go, if you want to go, just walk over by yourself!"

Well, the typical three monks had no water to drink, and no one dared to resist Tao Xiuying's authority, so the three sisters had to obediently respond. Fortunately, the second uncle's house was not very far away, and it was only a few minutes' walk.

Chen Qiaoshan first arrived at his second uncle's house. After waiting for a while, the three girls came over panting. It was really difficult to be like this hot day, and they were all sweating profusely.

Chen Qiaoshan smiled and said, "Why are you running so urgently? I will definitely wait for you to come!"

Chen Wan complained: "It's not Xiaowu yet, I ran away in a hurry!" Chen Yue was a little embarrassed, and it was rare to refute.

Second aunt quickly brought a basin of cold water that had just been dug up and said with heartache: "Wipe quickly, it's such a hot day, why are you doing so urgently!"

"It's better for the second aunt!" Xiao Wu said sweetly, and there was no one else to coax him wherever he left!

After the three of them were breathing, Chen Qiaoshan directly called back the phone with no hands-free.

"Hey, hello!" There was a woman's voice on the other end of the phone.

"Hello, I'm Chen Qiaoshan."

"Hello, Student Chen, I am a teacher from Tsinghua Admissions Office. My surname is Wang. First of all, congratulations on your good results in this year's college entrance examination. Our Tsinghua..."

Teacher Wang praised Chen Qiaoshan for a while on the phone, and then boasted about Tsinghua University. The meaning is very clear. We are very high-end in Tsinghua University, and your grades are also very good, and we are just right.

Chen Qiaoshan felt quite disappointed. The enrollment level of Mr. Wang from Tsinghua University is too average.

Although he had never been a teacher or did enrollment work in his previous life, he was just selling his products to foreign businessmen, and enrollment was selling his school to graduates. The two were similar.

Sales cannot be achieved by simply introducing the transaction. The most important thing is communication skills with potential customers. The seller must first interact with the buyer to understand the other party’s actual needs, and then show the advantages of their products based on the other party’s psychological needs.

The teacher Wang on the opposite phone was obviously unqualified. She was talking throughout the whole process. Chen Qiaoshan just cooperated occasionally and said no interaction at all. But then again, Tsinghua University is a big temple and would not take a student too seriously.

In the end, Chen Qiaoshan did not give a accurate letter, "Thank you, Teacher Wang. I probably know the situation. I will go home and discuss it with my parents!" This was a tactful refusal. He could not say, "I don't like you, let's go to you!"

After hanging up the phone, the second aunt asked curiously: "Dashan, why didn't you agree to him? Tsinghua is famous for being accused of!"

"I know, I know!" Xiaowu rushed to say, causing Chen Qiaoshan to be puzzled and asked, "What do you know?"

Xiao Wu said proudly: "I know you want to apply to Peking University's finance department!"

Chen Qiaoshan looked at Chen Xi and felt helpless. There was indeed no secret between the three little sisters. At that time, he specifically reminded Chen Xi to keep it secret first. Unexpectedly, Xiao Wu would know after looking back.

Chen Xi noticed his gaze and shook his head with a chuckle.

When he got home, Chen Jianguo took out a stack of newspapers and handed them to him, saying, "I took them back yesterday. I forgot to send them to you in the pack!"

Chen Qiaoshan hurriedly took it over and looked around. A prominent title came into view: The top scorer in the college entrance examination was brave and seriously injured and no one cared about it!

The following pictures occupy a large area, which is a photo of Chen Qiaoshan bandaging in the village clinic.
