Chapter 16: Genes split?
"Is this Xu Qingzhou you?" Xu Shouyun still felt a little dazed. He had lived for decades and he had seen many things, but this was really something he had never seen before.
Xu Qingzhou munched on a bun and nodded, knowing that it would take time for them to accept this fact.
"It's more than 70 points higher than last time. Is this normal?" Wang Xiaping looked away from the transcript and looked at Xu Qingzhou.
"Abnormal." Xu Qingzhou shook his head, sighed, and continued: "Unless... I am a genius."
"Virtue." Wang Xiaping rolled her eyes, put down the report card, and stared at Xu Qingzhou with scrutiny, "Tell me what happened. Don't say it's because the test paper was easy."
Xu Shouyun looked at his son seriously, waiting for a reasonable explanation.
Seeing that the old couple had a serious expression, as if they were going to have a trial, Xu Qingzhou quickly ate the bun in his hand, thought for a moment, and said:
"In fact, learning has a bottleneck, or in other words, it is a process from quantitative change to qualitative change. The accumulation of quantity in the previous three years led to qualitative change in the recent period, breaking through the bottleneck, so my grades have reached a new level."
"So mysterious?" Wang Xiaping felt incredible. After careful thinking, she realized that Xu Qingzhou had changed a lot during this period of time. He had become more sensible and would go to the library every day on weekends with a notebook.
"The things that scholars do are so magical." Xu Qingzhou laughed.
Xu Shouyun frowned and thought for a moment, thinking it made sense, and nodded, saying, "Lao Liu's child did score more than 40 points higher than usual in the college entrance examination last year."
Wang Xiaping agreed with this statement and looked at the report card again.
While his parents were admiring his achievements, Xu Qingzhou stood up, washed the dishes, wiped them and put them back in the cabinet.
"Please sit down for a moment, let's have a small meeting." He walked out of the kitchen and saw his mother turning off the TV and waved to her.
Xu Qingzhou sat down obediently on the side of the sofa.
Wang Xiaping took the report card, looked at it again and again, and then asked: "Can you maintain your grades?"
"It may be a little difficult." Xu Qingzhou looked embarrassed.
"This is a qualitative change, not a deterioration. How can your score drop back to the original score line?" Wang Xiaping stared.
Xu Qingzhou spread his hands and said, "Actually, I think my score can be improved a lot in the next exam. It's quite difficult to maintain my current score."
Wang Xiaping was stunned for a moment, then she reacted and slapped Xu Qingzhou with the report card, "You little brat, are you itching for trouble?"
"Now that your grades have improved, you should change your target college for the college entrance examination." Xu Shouyun said, "With your previous grades, you were pretty sure you could go to Shu University. If you tried harder, you might be able to get into Zhejiang University. Now with your score, Shuimu and Peking University are probably the best choices."
"What do you think?" Wang Xiaping asked.
"I want to study mathematics in college, and if nothing unexpected happens, I would like to choose Peking University," said Xu Qingzhou.
"Mathematics?" Xu Shouyun frowned. "Don't you prefer physics? Why do you want to study mathematics?"
"Mathematics talks about logic, and physics talks about cause and effect. Generally speaking, mathematics should be considered the foundation of physics, because physics is an experimental subject, and science must involve the deduction of formal logic, which is mathematics," Xu Qingzhou explained.
"It's very confusing. If you want to learn physics well, you have to learn math well first," said Wang Xiaping.
Xu Qingzhou gave a thumbs up and praised: "As expected of my mother, you have summarized it well."
"Stop talking nonsense." Although Wang Xiaping was cursing, she was really happy in her heart, thinking that all the efforts over the years were worth it. The family meeting was over. Xu Shouyun and Wang Xiaping didn't give Xu Qingzhou much advice. They reached a consensus a long time ago that the previous experience was not suitable for Xu Qingzhou's current life. They might not know as much as Xu Qingzhou about many things. As long as the general direction was correct, there would be no problem.
He watched TV with the old couple who were still in a daze, reminded them to go to bed early, and then got up and went back to the room to read.
living room.
"Is this really our son?" Wang Xiaping whispered to Xu Shouyun. His son had changed so much during this period of time. Specifically, he had become so mature that he seemed to have grown up in an instant.
Xu Shouyun stared at the report card for a long time, and finally came to a conclusion: "My genes are a little split."
Xu Qingzhou sat down and turned on his cell phone.
There was a friend request on QQ from Zhang Yuxin.
Xu Qingzhou ignored it and played Plants vs. Zombies for a while, then put down his phone and looked at the math notes he had sorted out in the library during this period.
After the exam, the first two days were spent discussing the test paper. There was no slacking off throughout the entire third year of high school and the atmosphere of the college entrance examination was maintained. The relaxation after the exams in the first and second years of high school was long gone under the pressure of the college entrance examination.
Xu Qingzhou's life went on as planned, except that he was paid a little more attention. Many people said that if there were no college entrance examination, high school life would be the most memorable.
For Xu Qingzhou, it is equivalent to not taking the college entrance examination, so he can enjoy the last part of his high school life to the fullest.
The only change was that after school in the afternoon, there were two more people eating together, Song Yao and Ding Jiahui.
Looking at the rice on Guo Ziyang's plate, Ding Jiahui said, "You've been hit hard, but you still have such a good appetite?"
"I'm turning my grief and anger into appetite." Guo Ziyang curled his lips.
After spending some time together, he and Ding Jiahui became familiar with each other and were no longer as reserved as before.
Guo Ziyang is not a self-pitying person. Although he suffered a critical blow, he was still happy in his heart that his good brother's grades had improved.
"Xu Qingzhou, I'm just interviewing you. High school life is so busy. How do you find the energy to learn college knowledge?" Ding Jiahui used chopsticks as a microphone for the interview.
"Multitasking." Xu Qingzhou said seriously: "For example, when watching a TV series, memorize some words; when playing games, devote half of your attention to math problems. Don't stay up late. If you really can't do it, pull an all-nighter. This way it doesn't count as staying up late."
"Oh my god, Zhouzi, you are really studying secretly!"
“Is it really useful?!”
Guo Ziyang gritted his teeth and Ding Jiahui was shocked.
Song Yao shook her head helplessly, thinking that these two people were really hopeless, and she believed it.
After dinner, Guo Ziyang went to the canteen to buy a notebook. Xu Qingzhou was standing at the door waiting for him. Young figures in blue and white school uniforms walked by.
The melody of "Hometown" is floating on the campus radio.
The sunset in the sky shines on my face again
Once again reflecting my uneasy heart
What kind of place is this that is still so desolate?
That endless journey is so long
