Li Xiulan
After this meal was finished, Wang Xiaohua and his family, as well as Zhang Sheng, Niu Chunsheng, and Niu Lin Xin, went to tour the Forbidden City together, then he found them a guesthouse near the university for them to stay one night, and the next day sent them back.
When seeing them off, Wang Xiaohua couldn't help but sigh.
They haven't even returned to the county town yet, and this kind of trouble has already been stirred up.
If they actually get back to the county town, what will happen then?
But life, after all, is about growing and experiencing on the road of encountering trouble and solving trouble.
If it's smooth sailing all the way, it would instead appear boring to the extreme.
Wang Xiaohua, alone, took the subway from the airport back to the university.
He sent a text message to his eldest brother:
"Big Brother, at the dinner table today, you did something I found a bit incomprehensible. I've told you long ago, Niu Lin Xin and I are not people of the same world. Please don't randomly arrange marriage alliances for me in the future."
Regarding this meal, if one were to say who Wang Xiaohua had the biggest grievance against in his heart, it wasn't Zhang Sheng, nor Niu Chunsheng, nor even the tactless Niu Lin Xin, but his eldest brother Wang Dashan.
Zhang Sheng stepped away to make a phone call, so why did you pull Niu Lin Xin over?
Isn't this acting recklessly!
It both offended Zhang Sheng and made him, Wang Xiaohua, lose face!
At this moment, Wang Dashan, waiting for his flight at the airport, saw the text message Wang Xiaohua sent, his brows furrowed slightly, and he felt a bit unhappy.
He felt he was doing this for Wang Xiaohua's own good; it was fine if Wang Xiaohua didn't appreciate it, but he even blamed him — this was a bit petty.
However, although he was unhappy, he didn't take the matter entirely to heart either; only in his capacity as the eldest brother, he replied to Wang Xiaohua with a single sentence:
"Third Brother, you need to put some heart into your major life event of marriage. Mom is hoping you'll start a family and establish a career soon."
Wang Xiaohua, seeing the text message Wang Dashan sent back, didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Because from the content of this text message, he could judge that Wang Dashan hadn't realized his mistake in the slightest.
But this was also to be expected; after all, his eldest brother's character was just like that.
It's easy to change the landscape, but hard to change one's nature.
Even if one could make him submit temporarily, it's impossible to change this character of his.
Forget it, won't bother arguing about it.
Anyway, it didn't bring him any loss.
But if his eldest brother persists in his own way and does similar things in the future, he will still refuse, even directly refuse to his face.
He won't say that for the sake of his eldest brother's face, he'll choose to compromise.
Because previous events have served as lessons, letting him know that the price of compromise is truly too great.
Wang Xiaohua returned to the dormitory and discovered Wen Lingyun was packing luggage.
Wang Xiaohua was a bit surprised:
"Lingyun, you haven't graduated yet, are you leaving already?"
Wen Lingyun smiled and said:
"I'm going to Japan for an academic exchange. This afternoon's flight. In the future, there probably won't be much time to come back. Even if I do come back, it'll only be to pick up the undergraduate graduation certificate."
"So rushed?"
Wang Xiaohua felt a bit reluctant to part.
Wen Lingyun patted Wang Xiaohua's shoulder:
"At noon, the four of us in the dorm, let's go eat a meal together. I've already greeted Wei Qian and Wan Zhiyuan."
"Okay!"
Wang Xiaohua agreed readily.
In a blink, it was noon mealtime.
Wang Xiaohua rode a shared bike to a restaurant outside the university.
Wen Lingyun and Wei Qian had already arrived long ago.
Wan Zhiyuan said he still had a bit of business to handle at the laboratory, and would come over a bit late.
Wen Lingyun then said:
"No need to wait for him, let's just start. When he arrives, we'll just make him down three cups as penalty!"
Wen Lingyun had the waiter serve the dishes, and also served half a dozen beers, and then the three people ate and chatted.
"Xiaohua, I heard you're not planning to continue graduate study. Is it true?"
Wen Lingyun suddenly asked about this matter.
"True. I've already tested for the Selected Graduate position back in my hometown."
Wen Lingyun sighed:
"That's quite a pity. Although your aptitude isn't enough, you win in diligence. If you stayed at Tsinghua to continue graduate study, maybe in the future you could become a good professor."
Wang Xiaohua smiled wryly:
"Don't you belittle me."
Wen Lingyun, however, said:
"Even Wei Qian is planning to do graduate study. His grade point average isn't enough, he can't get the recommended admission for graduate study qualification at this school, but he plans to test for graduate study at another school."
Wang Xiaohua was a bit surprised:
"Wei Qian, really or fake?"
Because Wei Qian had never mentioned this matter before.
He hadn't even made any preparations for the postgraduate entrance examination.
Every day he either drifted among various clubs, or was busy dating, switching girlfriends.
Wei Qian smiled embarrassedly:
"It's true! Mainly my ungrateful biological father said if I don't study as a graduate student, there's no difference from a waste of space, and threatened that if I don't study, he won't care about me anymore. Actually, I thought about it carefully, if I don't study for a master's, I wouldn't know what to do after graduation either, so I can only reluctantly go take the exam."
Wang Xiaohua heard these words, and for a moment felt myriad emotions in his heart.
Without a doubt, Wei Qian is extremely fortunate.
He has his family as a safety net.
When he was lost, they could help him make the correct choice.
Unlike Wang Xiaohua, standing at the crossroads of life, he can only make the choice himself.
If he chooses correctly, then it's fine.
If he chooses wrong, that lifetime might just be like that.
Wei Qian then said:
"Xiao Hua, your grade point average is so good, not taking the recommended admission for graduate study, honestly, is really a waste!"
Wang Xiaohua then said:
"Everyone has their own aspirations."
He didn't want to mention his giving up the recommended admission too much, because the more he mentioned it, the more it would shake his inner heart.
And he had already made his choice.
Even if he regrets it now, it's already too late.
Although the recommended admission list hasn't been formally finalized yet, on the supervisor's side, the quotas have already been set.
Because according to traditional habit, recommended admission students need to go communicate with the supervisor in advance.
"Speaking of which, Wei Qian, which university are you preparing to take the graduate exam for?"
Wang Xiaohua asked Wei Qian this one sentence.
Wei Qian then said:
"I haven't decided yet, still considering these few days, whether to test for Fudan University, or test for Sun Yat-sen University, mainly uncertain whether to go to Guangzhou, or go to Shanghai, Beijing this place, I won't stay, switch to a new environment, lest I run into Yun Shu, how embarrassing would that be."
Wei Qian said it lightly, with a smile on his face.
But everyone could see, in his heart he still has Yun Shu.
After all, she was his first love girlfriend.
It's just a pity some things, once missed, can never turn back.
Yun Shu now already has another boyfriend, during the graduation photo time, Wei Qian originally wanted to go find Yun Shu to take a group photo, but seeing her boyfriend by her side, he didn't have the nerve to disturb them.
Lest her boyfriend misunderstand, adding unnecessary trouble for her.
Wen Lingyun eating dishes said to Wei Qian:
"Then you absolutely have it in the bag, steady as a rock! After all, whether testing from Tsinghua University to Fudan, or testing for Sun Yat-sen University, those are all testing downward for graduate study, as long as the initial exam score line is passed, there's no big problem!"
