Chapter 126: Visiting to Congratulate
"No wonder I have seen online that many college students with mathematics majors have joined the financial investment world. They probably rely on probability and statistics to study algorithms for making money in stocks. After mastering complete knowledge of probability theory, You can also try one or two.”
Qin Ke thought a little funny while holding a spatula and skillfully frying the last dish in the kitchen.
"Zi——!" The oil splashed, and the aroma of fried pork with green pepper overflowed.
It is said that all the cooks in Qin Ke's family are men. The main reason is that his father Qin Yanghui is reluctant to let his wife Shen Qiuyi cook, saying that it will dirty her hands. Therefore, as long as Qin Ke can remember, it is his father Qin Yanghui who cooks. .
——But once, after Qin Ke saw his mother's cooking skills, he was very lucky that it was his father who cooked, otherwise he and his sister would not live to be this old.
You know, his mother scrambled an egg until it was as fried as black charcoal, and added half a can of sugar and salt, and then added chili oil, sesame oil, tomato sauce... The taste was something Qin Ke would never forget.
From then on, whenever his father went out to purchase goods or deliver goods and had no time to cook, Qin Ke would rush to cook. The reason he used was "I'm afraid that my father, who is a doting wife, will say something about me when he sees you cooking."
As for his little sister? Qin Xiaoke would only eat the food he cooked while shouting, "Brother, the food you cooked is the most delicious." Chef man...
Hey, I won’t mention it anymore, it will be full of bitter tears when I mention it. Qin Ke grew up in such a "bad" environment.
But it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. Anyway, his cooking skills have been honed in this way, and his level is no longer lower than that of his father. His father once joked: "Qin Ke, one day we won't be a hardware store, we might as well partner up How about opening a restaurant?" Qin Ke of course rolled his eyes. His goal is to become a god of learning admired by thousands of people. Who wants to be a chef who never sees the light of day and only sees the smoke!
Qin Ke prepared the meal and brought it to the dining table in the living room, but did not see his grandfather. Lin Haibo pointed to the balcony and whispered mischievously: "Old Shen is smoking on the phone outside. Let's sneak over and listen. What did he say?"
Qin Ke turned around and looked through the glass door of the balcony. He saw Mr. Shen's face was flushed. He didn't drink alcohol but was as red as if he had drunk half a catty. He held a lit cigarette in his hand and did not drink it. He had it in his mouth and was just talking on the phone, seemingly still smiling.
This is a vivid expression that rarely appears on my grandfather, who has always been known as an iceberg.
Qin Ke couldn't help but become curious, and quietly approached Lin Haibo, a humorous old naughty boy, along the blind spot in Shen Tieshan's field of vision.
Soon I faintly heard my grandpa's voice.
"Hey, Lao Zhang, I'm Lao Shen. It's okay. I heard that your grandson is also a sophomore in high school this year. How did he do in the final joint entrance examination?"
"Ninety-seventh in the city? That's pretty impressive! This kid has a bright future! My grandson also took part in the joint entrance examination... How did he do in the exam? Just barely, he seemed to have scored 1235 points. I can’t remember because I’m too old. I only heard that he was second in the rankings... I’m not very satisfied with his results. He’s only 1 point behind the previous one! If he works harder, he can move up a rank, so I say he is I just don’t do things carefully enough…”
"Hey, Teacher Qi, I haven't seen you for a long time. Is your daughter also taking the high school entrance examination in Yuanzhou this year? Oh, she didn't do well in the exam, only over 900 points? Then she needs to work harder. Speaking of which, my grandson will take the exam this year.
I also took part in this joint examination, and said the questions were more difficult... His score? Hey, don't mention it, he just scored 1235 points, which is far from a perfect score! This kid has no idea all day long, he only cares about playing basketball, not at all
You don’t even concentrate on studying! It’s better for your daughter to worry less. I heard that she studies until very late every day? Girls are good..."
Qin Ke wanted to laugh when he heard it. This was the first time he saw his grandpa talking so much. His voice was amplified later without even realizing it, and he was showing off in various ways. He kept making phone calls one after another.
I'm afraid I've long dreamed of such a day.
At the same time, a sense of warmth flowed through Qin Ke's heart.
This was probably the childish side that my grandfather would never reveal openly in front of him, the childish side that was excited to show off his achievements.
Lin Haibo was also very happy to see it, and then he sighed: "Qin Ke, actually today, Team Leader Shi and I came to Qingping Town. It was invited by your grandpa, just to ask us to train more rigorously and index you."
Mathematical Olympiad, so that you can achieve good results in the national competition."
Qin Ke's eyes were a little hot: "Well, I guessed it... My grandpa has been like this since I was a child. He is very arrogant and has a very awkward personality."
When he was a child, he didn't understand why his grandfather, who was obviously in good mental and physical health, retired early and returned to this small town to retire after he entered elementary school. He also came to his house from time to time to find fault with him and was dissatisfied with him.
.
What impressed Qin Ke the most was that since the first grade of elementary school, his grandfather would come to his house every time he took a quiz or exam, take out his test paper, find out the wrong questions one by one, and constantly make him angry.
:
"Qin Ke, you did something so simple wrong? Isn't it just XXX knowledge point? It's on page XX of your book."
"Didn't you do this question in the last exam? The conditions just changed. How could you still get the last step wrong?"
"This question is obviously for free points. You have solved it all before. Why can't you solve this little question at the end?"
"You have to use your brain for this question and be flexible. Don't be like your parents and stick to the end..."
Qin Ke, who had always been strong, studied hard just to prevent his grandfather from looking down on him. His grades got better and better, and he eventually became the top academic in the town.
Later, when he grew up, he realized that if his grandfather had not carefully studied every textbook he was studying, how could he know so clearly what knowledge points were on which page?
After thinking about all this, Qin Ke no longer feared or hated his grandfather. Instead, he liked to quarrel with his grandfather with a playful smile. This became a unique way for the two of them to get along...
Qin Ke retreated lightly. Before leaving, he asked, "Professor Lin, I'm going back first. Please wait until my grandpa finishes making a phone call before asking him to come back for dinner."
Lin Haibo was startled, and then he couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Qin Ke's back again.
This child is too attentive. He wants his grandpa to have more time to laugh like this...
…
According to Shi Cunyuan and Lin Haibo's original plan, Qin Ke would go to his grandfather's house in the following evening and the next morning to listen to them explain important information and precautions about this National Mathematical Olympiad.
But the plan couldn't keep up with the change. Early the next morning, Qin Ke, who was still wanting to sleep for a while, was woken up by the sound of firecrackers. As soon as he went out, he found out that it was the leader of Qingping Town, together with the principal and teacher who taught him at Qingping Junior High School. They all came to congratulate him, and the town even arranged for people to invite Shen Tieshan, Professor Shi, and Professor Lin.
It turned out that the news that Qin Ke had won second place in the city in the final joint examination had spread, and since he happened to be in the town again, the town leaders immediately decided and brought people to visit him to express their condolences.
