Chapter 293 Its fine now, as you wish!(1/2)
In the past, Yao Pinghua felt that eating at home was a kind of enjoyment, especially when his mother cooked the dishes he liked. No matter how heavy his studies were on weekdays, he would not feel tired.
But after tasting the food in the Seventh Canteen, he suddenly realized that he had eaten too little good food before, and the meals his mother cooked could only be regarded as filling food at best.
However, although the food cooked by his mother was not as good as Qi Canteen in terms of taste, Yao Pinghua still accompanied his parents to finish the dinner.
He is still seventeen or eighteen years old, and he will feel hungry if he doesn't eat. What's more, this is a meal that his mother put a lot of effort into cooking.
When the dinner was about to end, Lao Yao seemed to suddenly remember something. He turned his head to look at Yao Pinghua and asked:
"Xiaohua, you're going to fill out your college application form in the next two days, right? Have you decided which school to apply for?"
In the homes of many other recent college entrance examination students, there is no need to ask such questions at all.
Although domestic university enrollment plans are increasing year by year, and the proportion of college students in society is also increasing, being admitted to a good university is still a life leap for an ordinary civilian family, no less than a "fish leaping over the dragon's gate".
Therefore, once a child in the family takes the college entrance examination, those with poor grades may take it lightly.
But some students with good grades may not have even started the college entrance examination, and their families may have begun to wonder what kind of university their children should be able to get into based on their usual scores.
Once the college entrance examination is over and the scores and provincial rankings are released, there is no need to even think about which school or major the child should apply for. You can directly fill in the applications according to the colleges and universities that parents have considered before. You can't go wrong!
However, the situation in Yao Pinghua's family is a little different from other families.
Lao Yao and his wife were originally high-achieving college students. They received higher education in their early years, and their ideas about college were different from ordinary people.
For others, college may be a life-changing opportunity.
But to Lao Yao and others, university is just a place to receive higher education, and there is not much worth paying attention to.
They just want their son to do what he should do at the age he should be. For example, now that he is 18 years old, he can go to college.
Oh, well, just go to college.
As for which school their son goes to, they don't really care at all.
What they care about is what their son can learn through the experience in college.
Anyway, I have saved hundreds of millions and a listed company waiting for you there.
If your kid has the ability to go out and try his luck, your father will protect you...
If it succeeds, of course it would be best, but if it doesn’t succeed...
Then you, kid, are not at a loss. Can't you come back and inherit your father's and my billionaire net worth and the listed company?
Yes, that's what Lao Yao thought.
Therefore, he never paid attention to his son's college application and did not refer to it for him.
What's the point? You can't get into top universities like Mizuki and Peking University anyway, so the rest of the other universities don't matter.
My son can go wherever he wants and let him choose.
When her son's father asked about this, the mother's attention was immediately attracted and she looked at her son with concern.
Although my mother's thoughts are not much different from Lao Yao's in general, she is the mother of her child after all, and she has similar thoughts to the mothers of candidates across the country.
Even though his son has grown up, he has never left his side.
If he really went to a university far away from home all of a sudden, wouldn't he have to worry about him all the time, fearing that he would be hungry, thirsty, or be bullied?
Therefore, she had to quickly find out which university her son was planning to apply for. If the school was too far away, she could at least give him some advice.
We don’t ask for a university close to home. This is unrealistic, but my son, the furthest thing is that he can only go to a nearby province to study at university!
It's too far away, and it's not easy for mom to run to school to see you!
Yao Pinghua had already finished his meal and was about to go back to his room when he was suddenly asked by his father and stared at by his mother with stern eyes. Even if he was not afraid of his parents on weekdays, he was somewhat unavoidable at this moment.
Somewhat nervous.
He hesitated for a moment and then said reluctantly:
"Jiangzhou University."
After a pause, he added, "Biological science major."
"Yeah, pretty good."
Lao Yao nodded with a smile on his face. Just when he was about to open his mouth and continue to say something, the smile on his face suddenly froze, as if he had just reacted at this moment, and he suddenly felt a knot.
"You, what did you just say? Jiangzhou University?
Is it the Jiangzhou University in the university town in the eastern suburbs of Jiangzhou City?"
He looked at his son sitting in front of him with a surprised look on his face, and his heart was full of surprise.
He had known for a long time that his son had never been willing to stay at home, so he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to go to college to stay away from home and enjoy the unfettered freedom.
When he got to college, he could do whatever he wanted. He no longer had to hear his mother nagging in his ears, saying he couldn't do this or that...
Although my son failed in the college entrance examination this time and was at least 20 or 30 points lower than the usual mock exams, with his grades, it is still possible to go to some relatively good universities outside the province.
Of course, Jiangzhou University is not bad either. It is the only "211" university in the province, so it still has some strength.
But it happens to be right at the doorstep!
What kind of stimulation did the son receive that makes him unable to even think about "flying far away" that he had always dreamed of?
When her son's mother heard this, her face was filled with surprise, her eyes lit up, and she shouted happily:
"Son! Have you really applied for Jiangzhou University? I knew that, son, you would never leave your mother too far. This is great!"
Yao Pinghua responded dully:
"Well, isn't this what you have always wanted? Now it's fine, it's as you wish!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Silly boy, it would be great to be closer to home. You don't have to worry about not being able to buy tickets when you go home during the Chinese New Year!"
Mom said with a smile,
"Besides, if you want to go out for a walk, you can go wherever you want during the winter and summer vacations."
She didn't think too much about it. As long as her son stayed not far from her, that was good news.
At this moment, she was even a little "lucky". Fortunately, her son did not do well in the college entrance examination. If he had performed too well and scored too high in the exam, even if she wanted her son to stay at Jiangnan University, it would be impossible.
It is impossible for her to deliberately prevent her son from studying at a better university because she is reluctant to leave her son. That would be too selfish.
Of course, this kind of joy like a mouse stealing oil can only be hidden in her heart. She would never dare to reveal it.
Otherwise, if my son really found out, wouldn't I, as a mother, be extremely embarrassed?
"Why do you suddenly want to apply for Jiangzhou University?"
Mom was full of joy, but Lao Yao still didn't understand. He said thoughtfully,
"Actually, based on your grades, you can try schools such as Xiamen University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and Jinmen University. Relatively speaking, these universities are much more famous than Jiangzhou University, and their employment prospects after graduation are also different.
Very broad.”
After a pause, he remembered what his son had just said about "majoring in biological sciences." After thinking about it for a while, he continued,
"Furthermore, Jiangzhou University's major in biological sciences is very average. If you really want to study this major, you might as well go to universities like Xia University and Han University.
Xia University's biological science major ranks seventh among universities nationwide, and Han University's biological science major ranks tenth. The key is that the admission score of Han University's major in Jiangzhou is not high. If I remember correctly, it was admitted last year.
The admitted candidate only scored 608 points."
Although Lao Yao doesn't care which university his son goes to, being able to enter a better university is obviously more beneficial to his son's future development.
As for her son’s mother, she just wants to keep her son by her side...
What a loving mother but a loser!
He didn't even bother to talk about her!
"Dad, you are behind on news."
Yao Pinghua raised his head and glanced at Lao Yao with some surprise. He didn't expect that his father usually ignored him, so he thought he didn't care about him.
Unexpectedly, Lao Yao's previous words revealed that although he usually didn't say anything, he still cared about himself very much in his heart.
Otherwise, how could he know the major rankings of those universities so clearly?
Thinking of this, Yao Pinghua couldn't help but feel moved in his heart, and even his usually stiff tone softened a lot.
“Jiang University’s School of Life Sciences made a new move in the first half of this year and hired an international expert in the field of biological sciences from one of the world’s top 100 universities.
I heard that this expert is very powerful, and he is also a big figure in the field of international biological sciences. It is said that Mizuki and Beijing University are very coveted.
Oh, by the way, Jiangnan University also held a biological science seminar and exchange meeting in the first half of the year. At that time, it attracted experts and scholars in the biological science field from Mizuki, Beijing University and other major domestic universities.
I also heard that after this seminar, an old professor from Huanong was impressed by this external expert, and took the initiative to propose to the leaders of Jiangnan University that he hoped to stay at Jiangnan University to teach and educate people, and work with Jiangnan University.
Let’s work together with this external expert to study and explore the latest fields of biological sciences.”
"Oh? Is there anything else?"
When Lao Yao heard what his son said, he immediately became interested. He sat up straight and asked quickly,
"Do you know the name of this external expert? Which school does he come from?"
"It seems to be a university where the sun never sets. I don't remember its name."
