"Didn't pass the exam?" Su Jianmin became excited, "No way, my daughter will definitely pass the exam!"
The staff at the admissions office smiled and said: "I have heard the same thing more than a dozen times in the past two days. Let me tell you, the admission rate for the college entrance examination this time is very low. There are only 300 or not 500 candidates in our entire town, right?"
As a result, I only received three acceptance letters.”
After he finished speaking, he added: "I think you are quite young. Your daughter should be in her twenties, right? It doesn't matter if she didn't pass the exam this time. There will be another college entrance examination this summer. You ask her to review quickly and prepare for the summer."
Take the test again."
"Is there a college entrance examination in the summer?" Su Jianmin was stunned for a moment.
"Yes, the college entrance examination is supposed to be in the summer, but this winter is a special case."
He took a sip of tea and casually chatted: "The weather here in Guangdong is warm. It doesn't matter whether it's winter or summer. I heard that many educated youths in the north braved heavy snowfall to take the college entrance examination and almost froze to death due to the heavy snow.
"
"Ouch, is there such a thing?" Su Jianmin couldn't help but hear the gossip.
Bai Lu frowned at the side.
When she heard that her husband wanted to chat with others, she dragged him away.
"I asked you to inquire about Jinbao's admission notice. Why are you talking about other people's affairs?" Bai Lu said displeased.
"Let's chat casually," Su Jianmin said, "You just heard what he said, there will be another college entrance examination in the summer. If Jinbao really doesn't pass the exam this time, then he can wait until four months later and take the exam again. Anyway, our Jinbao
I'm still young, so don't be in a hurry."
Bai Lu was anxious, "Do you also think that Jinbao didn't pass the exam?"
"Ah? This is not a question of whether I feel it or not. The main reason is that Jinghai University is indeed difficult to get into..."
Before Su Jianmin could finish speaking, his daughter-in-law blamed herself: "I shouldn't have suggested that Jinbao apply to a university in Jinghai City at that time. Alas, I didn't understand the situation. I didn't know that there were so few students from other provinces. Jinbao applied for it.
At the time, we didn’t provide any help or reference.”
"We were in Zhiyuan at that time. I thought that Wen Nian would be able to help Jinbao choose a good school. Who would have thought that Jinbao would choose the best school?" At this point, Su Jianmin comforted his wife and said,
"Don't think about it. If you fail, just take the exam again."
Bai Lu said with a worried tone: "I'm worried that Jin Bao will be hit..."
They returned home by donkey cart.
Su Xiaowu saw them at a glance and asked quickly: "Did you get Jinbao's admission notice?"
"Not yet, maybe it will take a few more days," Bai Lu said, "I will go to town to ask in a few days."
A woman with a hoe on her shoulder passed by their house, happened to hear their conversation, and shouted: "Don't ask!
Those who have passed the exam have already received their notification letters. My cousin lives in the county. Her two sons took the college entrance examination. The eldest son did not receive the notification letter, but the younger son received the notification letter a week ago. Now they have packed their bags and are ready to go.
Going to college."
"For schools in other provinces that my Jinbao applied for, the notice may have been issued a little later..."
"Oh, I heard someone say that your Jinbao applied to Jinghai University, right? I told my cousin and husband about this, and they said it was impossible to pass the exam. You also let your daughter fill in the application randomly.
Ah, parents don’t take good care of themselves.”
Su Jianmin looked embarrassed, "No, what about that? Which school does my daughter choose to attend? What did you tell your cousin?"
"Didn't I just have a casual chat with my cousin? Besides, it was the educated youth who spread the word first, cough! So what, I have to leave first." After the woman finished speaking, she put the hoe she had put down on her shoulder again.
On my shoulders, I walked away.
Su Xiaowu said angrily: "It must have been spread by that Fan Jiajia, it's really annoying!"
After saying that, he pushed open the courtyard door forcefully, "I have to go find those educated youths and tell them to shut up and stop talking about Jinbao."
His father grabbed him in time and said, "You will only make people laugh if you go. This is how the countryside is. Everyone likes to talk about other people's affairs when they have nothing to do. We pretend that we didn't hear it. After a while, no one will talk.
Already."
"Dad," Su Xiaowu frowned tightly, "Did Jinbao really not pass the exam?"
"I don't know. Hey, let's go in first..."
Jinbao was taking a nap when he heard someone walking into his room and slowly opened his eyes.
"Dad," she woke up, looked at her father with squinted eyes, and yawned, "are you and mom back?"
"Well, yes," Su Jianmin said cautiously, "Jinbao, your mother and I went to the admissions office to inquire. We don't have your admission notice yet. It may have to wait until early March. If you don't have it by then, then
…”
Before her father could finish speaking awkwardly, Jin Bao said clearly: "I understand."
"Jinbao, your mother and I both believe that you did very well in the exam, but it's just that Jinghai University is too difficult to get into."
"Maybe I didn't do as well as I thought," Jinbao said. "I don't even know what score I got."
"I asked about my scores, and the person from the admissions office said I couldn't check my college entrance examination scores this year."
Having said this, Su Jianmin patted his daughter on the shoulder comfortingly, "It's okay. There will be another college entrance examination in the summer. You can prepare well for that exam. Dad believes that you will definitely pass."
Jinbao nodded, "Yeah."
Seemingly thinking of something, she asked: "Yes, Dad, have you called Third Brother?"
"When I called him, he said he got the admission notice the day before yesterday and was going to report to school on the 25th. He planned to quit his job and then go home for three days before going to Jinghai City," Su Jianmin said, "I remember he said
The school he applied for is Jinghai Academy of Fine Arts."
"Well, I know, Third Brother told me before..." After saying this, Jinbao's eyebrows arched, he couldn't help but clapped his hands, and said sincerely, "Great, Third Brother finally got admitted to his ideal university.
College!"
Su Jianmin sighed, "He still wants to go to Jinghai City with you."
"It's okay," Jinbao patted his father on the shoulder, "You also said that there will be another exam in the summer, which will only last four months. I will study hard starting from tomorrow. If I can't get into Jinghai University, I will
Find another one that is easier to pass."
Su Jianmin touched his daughter's head and said, "Jin Bao, if you feel uncomfortable, just cry if you want. There's no need to force a smile. Although your mother and I are worried that you will be sad, your behavior makes us even more worried..."
"But I didn't want to cry, really." Jin Bao said.
At that time, she just felt that the test paper was too easy and she felt that her grades were very good, so she confidently applied for Jinghai University. In fact, she had no obsession with Jinghai University.
If she had to say she was sorry, she felt sorry for Yao Hua.
Yao Hua organized such detailed knowledge points for her, but she was not admitted.
At the entrance of the village, a passenger bus stopped. After two men in Chinese tunic suits got off the bus, one of them covered his mouth and looked very uncomfortable, probably due to motion sickness. The other asked the villagers on the roadside: "How are you?
