() "Chinese 125, Mathematics 146, English 138, Science Comprehensive 287, total score 696. Second in class, tenth in grade? This... can't this be true?"
Liang Guizhu looked at the name on the report card carefully in disbelief. Su Lin, yes, it was absolutely true, it was the name of his son Su Lin.
"Old Su, Old Su... you... wake up... look... this is Xiao Lin's report card... Xiao Lin got the second place in the class... and the tenth place in the grade!"
He shook Su Guorong vigorously, but Su Guorong was so drunk that he could not wake up so easily. Liang Guizhu pinched Su Guorong's nose excitedly, making him breathless. Then he coughed a few times and woke up in a daze.
"What to do? I still want to drink..."
Su Guorong's voice was still drunk, and Liang Guizhu became angry when he saw it, and cursed: "Keep drinking, as big as you are, I will drink you to death sooner or later. Lao Su, wake up quickly and look at this report card. It belongs to our Xiaolin. I passed the tenth grade exam."
Liang Guizhu picked up the tea cup on the table and sprinkled a little water on her husband Su Guorong's face. Only then did Su Guorong wake up.
"What? Xiaolin's transcript?"
Su Guorong slowly took the report card from Liang Guizhu's hand. When Su Guorong took a look at it, his eyes widened and he said in surprise: "Xiao Lin passed the tenth grade test? My son passed the tenth grade test?"
Suddenly, Su Guorong was completely sober from the wine, and he grinned, "My son has a lot of potential."
"No wonder this little brat dared to make such a bet with Xiao Tang the night before yesterday. It turns out that he already knew it in his heart, so I thought he was bragging."
Liang Guizhu was smiling as she took the report card. She had completely forgotten about her previous layoff.
"Dad, Mom, the food is ready, come and eat!"
At this time, Su Lin came out of the kitchen with soup. Seeing that his father was awake, he said, "Dad, you have just sobered up. I will get you some sobering tea."
Looking at his father's already gray hair, Su Lin felt sour and worried. Over the years, I have made my parents worry a lot. From now on, I must become sensible and bring a better life to this family so that my parents can enjoy happiness.
"Xiao Lin, don't bother, come on, come on, come on... Sit down, let's talk while we eat. Is this transcript really yours? Did you really get the tenth place in your grade this time?"
Liang Guizhu quickly greeted Su Lin and asked, holding the transcript in her hand.
"There is no other person named Su Lin in Jian'an No. 1 Middle School. Mom, this is my transcript. This time I really passed the tenth grade. Moreover, I will definitely do well in the college entrance examination and get into a prestigious university. .”
This was the first time since Su Lin entered high school that he saw such expectations in his mother's eyes. He felt warm in his heart and vowed to get good grades in the college entrance examination.
"Okay, Xiao Lin, you are ambitious. As expected of my son, work hard. Although dad is laid off, as long as you get into a good university, dad will support you no matter what."
Su Guorong was also completely out of the haze of being laid off, and said seriously, "Isn't it just a job! Dad has been driving for more than ten years, and he is still worried that he can't find a job? The family's expenses are temporarily as high as yours With your salary and some savings, it will be enough for your first year of college tuition."
"Lao Su? Are you...really laid off too?"
From the words of Su Guorong who woke up, Liang Guizhu confirmed that her husband was also laid off and unemployed.
"Yeah? Guizhu, won't you be laid off too? Didn't your factory say there won't be any layoffs this year?"
The couple confronted each other, and now the situation of the Su family is clear. Both of them are laid off and unemployed at home. The Su family has no source of income and relies on savings of tens of thousands of yuan. If Su's father and Su's mother don't find a job quickly, they will be left with nothing.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry. I will find a way to pay for college. After the college entrance examination is over, I will also find a way to make money. I will be eighteen soon. I am an adult. I will not I won’t ask you for more money. I will also support this family.”
Seeing the sadness creeping onto his parents' foreheads again, Su Lin said decisively.
"Nonsense! Xiao Lin, you don't have to worry about family matters. Your task now is to focus all your attention on your studies and perform well in the college entrance examination. Dad has his own way to solve the money problem."
Su Guorong showed his father's pride at this time and said.
"I can make money by relying on the ability to pause time, but it's hard to tell my parents now. Even if I say I can make money, they won't believe it, so let's leave it like this for now. Anyway, I can't let my parents do it anymore. Heartbroken."
The meal was enjoyable and enjoyable. Although the Su family suffered a bolt from the blue and both Su's father and mother were laid off, Su Lin's rapid improvement in grades gave the family new hope.
After dinner, Su's father and Su's mother were in the yard, chatting with some neighbors and asking them which employers were hiring recently. Neighbors also expressed surprise and sympathy at the fact that both Su's father and mother were laid off. Those who could help agreed to go back and ask if their workplaces needed anyone.
"Uncle Su, don't tell Xiao Lin about this. Xiao Lin is about to take the college entrance examination and it will affect his grades."
Ye Xingzhu, who was in the yard, said with some worry.
"Xingzhu, Xiaolin already knows. However, now our Xiaolin has grown up and is sensible. His grades have also improved a lot. I believe there will be no problem in the college entrance examination this time and he will definitely be able to get into a good university."
Usually when talking about Su Lin in neighborhood chats, Liang Guizhu always spoke with an attitude of hating iron but not steel, but today he was uncharacteristically saying that Su Lin's grades had improved and he would have no problem getting into a good university. This makes the neighbor uncles and aunts strange.
"Could it be that Xiao Lin really improved in this exam?"
Ye Xingzhu was also happy.
"Yes! Xiaolin's grades have improved a lot this time, and he is ranked tenth in his grade!"
Liang Guizhu said loudly that she had not praised her son like this in the yard for a long time since Sulin's grades in high school dropped sharply.
"Wow... the tenth in the grade? Isn't Xiaolin from Jian'an No. 1 Middle School? The tenth in the grade can be admitted to a key university!"
"Not only key universities, but also the best Qingbei and Yanjing universities are possible."
"I remember that Su Lin's grades were not very good before? Why did he do so well in the exam all of a sudden?"
…
Liang Guizhu's words were astonishing. He ranked tenth in his grade. What kind of concept is this? Jian'an City has a population of more than 500,000, and Jian'an No. 1 Middle School is the best high school. The number of people admitted to a university every year is about 150. The tenth place can already be admitted to the first grade of domestic universities.
Naturally, the neighbors knew about Su Lin's previous achievements, and many even knew about the bet between Su Lin and Tang Zhongwang the day before yesterday.
"Impossible! With your Su Lin's grades, how could it be possible to get to the tenth place in the grade in one go? It's probably impossible to get into the top 100."
It was Tang Zhongwang's father who said this, looking unconvinced. Originally, in this courtyard, only his son and Su Lin went to Jian'an No. 1 Middle School. In the past, Su Lin had good grades and suppressed Tang Zhongwang. Now, Tang Zhongwang has the best grades. Every time he gets good grades, he gets a lot of praise from his neighbors. But this time, Su Lin actually stole the limelight.
Tenth grade? Just based on Su Lin's grades, which had been rubbish for three years, was he able to pass the tenth grade? Go dream! It must be bragging! I won’t make a draft even if I’m bragging.
"By the way, Old Tang, isn't your Zhongwang also studying in Jian'an No. 1 Middle School? How much did you get in this exam? Aren't Zhongwang's grades always pretty good? The last one was promising."
"I just asked my Zhongwang, and he told me that the results haven't come out yet. He just finished the exam yesterday. How could the results come out so quickly? Obviously, brother Su, are you afraid that you have been deceived by your Su Lin? He deliberately made his grades sound better, but the grades haven't come down yet. How does he know that he passed the tenth grade exam? Based on Su Lin's previous grades, do you think it's possible?"
Indeed, when Tang Zhongwang went home today. Tang's father had asked him about his test scores, but this time Tang Zhongwang failed in the test. His English answer sheet had no marks at all, and his ranking plummeted. He had no choice but to evade his father and lie to him that his scores had not come yet.
Of course, Tang's father really thought that his grades were not good enough. When he saw Su's father and Su's mother showing off Su Lin's grades in the yard, how could he not laugh at them? In his opinion, Su Lin must have lied about his results.
"The results haven't come out yet? Then...that report card Xiaolin showed me? Did he get it himself?"
Because Su Lin's improvement in grades was a bit incredible. When Su's mother heard Tang's father say that his grades had not improved again, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that Su Lin was lying to the couple. Immediately, Su's mother became angry. Without saying a word, she went home and grabbed Su Lin's ears.
"Little bastard, have you lied to me again? The results of your Jian'an No. 1 Middle School's senior high school exam haven't come down yet. Where did you get the report card? I thought you had grown up and become sensible, but I didn't expect you to be so young. lie."
Liang Guizhu was really angry this time. Just now, she was proudly praising Su Lin's grades in the yard, but she was immediately exposed by Tang's father. She lost all face. The key is that Su Lin actually lied about his grades. What's more, She was so angry that she couldn't stop feeling angry.
"Hey, hey, hey... Mom, please let go of your hand first. Who did you hear that the grades didn't come in? If the scores didn't come in, where did I get the report card?"
Su Lin was reading a book seriously in the room, and was caught out by his mother inexplicably. He felt really depressed.
"Transcript, look at this transcript and ask, did you get it yourself?"
Mother Su flicked the report card, and so many people in the yard looked at it, especially Father Tang, who looked like he was watching a good show.
"Mom, look, this report card has the official seal of our school, and it is printed in this standard every time. How can I get it by myself? Who did you hear that our results haven't come down yet? Let him come out Confrontation.”
After finally passing the exam, Su Lin was so depressed that he was still not believed! Turning around, he saw Tang's father looking at him with a smile and said, "Xiao Lin, it's wrong for you to lie like this. Our family Zhongwang has already told you that the results haven't been announced yet, so where did you get the report card?"
It turned out to be Tang Zhongwang, and Su Lin understood it instantly. But why did Tang Zhongwang tell Tang's father that his grades hadn't come in yet
"By the way, at the end of the English test, I erased the test number on Tang Zhongwang's answer sheet. His English score was probably only a dozen points. Could it be that he was afraid that his parents would find out about his poor score and lied about it? Come down?"
After thinking about it for a moment, Su Lin understood the cause and effect. Holding back his anger, he looked at Tang's father and said, "Uncle Tang, I remember I made a bet with your family Zhongwang the night before yesterday. I don't know if I can count on it." ?”
"That bet?"
Although Tang's father was not present that day, he certainly knew about the bet between his son and Su Lin. The bet was on whether Su Lin could get into the top 50 in his grade. Whoever lost would have to call the other person grandpa.
"Hmph! It's just a kid's thing for you, but...since it's a bet, it must be counted."
Seeing Su Lin's confident look, Tang's father still lamented that young people were too ignorant, but he didn't believe that Su Lin could really get into the top fifty of his grade, so he nodded.
"Okay, since Uncle Tang said so, please go and ask your Tang Zhongwang to come out. Whether my grades are down and whether I am ranked tenth in my grade, call him out and we'll find out after a confrontation."
Seeing Tang's father fall into the trap, Su Lin chuckled. At this time, Tang Zhongwang seemed to have heard the movement in the yard, and he listened with his ears tilted behind his door. Su Lin spotted him at a glance and shouted to him: "Tang Zhongwang, grandson, come out and call grandpa!"
