Chapter 3881 Chapter 3883 [The big tree attracts the wind]
The next day, Xiang Nan returned home, and sure enough, the college entrance examination results had come out.
Although Xiang Nan did not exert all his strength, he still scored 420 points, ranking among the best among the candidates in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, more than 100 points higher than the undergraduate level.
Such results can be said to be quite good.
Xiang Nan was a little dumbfounded when he saw this result. He didn't want to get high scores in the exam, so he deliberately lowered his scores.
It is unbelievable that the quality of candidates in the 1970s was so poor. The total score for the six subjects is 500 (English is not included in the total score and will only be used for reference during admission), but the undergraduate score is only 310, which is equivalent to just passing the passing mark.
So Xiang Nan excelled and scored a lot higher than the undergraduate score. Such extraordinary achievements made him an instant celebrity in the county.
After all, a young man who has not graduated from elementary school took the college entrance examination for the first time and got higher grades than many high school graduates. It is simply unbelievable.
“Chen Daguang is really amazing. I heard he didn’t even graduate from elementary school. How could he achieve such good results?”
"Our county really has a talent. It is said that he is the top scorer in the county college entrance examination."
“Why?” Qiao Gu was a little confused.
Because he originally wanted to get a decent score in the exam, be inconspicuous, and go to university. And he has already decided that he will apply to Jiangzhe Normal University.
He is not being alarmist. Such achievements and sudden fame will indeed bring him trouble.
…
“Dagang, you are so amazing, you actually got such good results in the exam.” When Qiaogu learned that Xiang Nan did so well in the exam, she immediately came to congratulate him.
Honestly speaking, she quite likes Xiang Nan.
He is tall, handsome and capable, he is loyal, gentle and considerate to others, and he has taught her so many skills. She will definitely like this kind of boy.
"Because people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong." Xiang Nan explained, "A big tree attracts the wind and can easily cause trouble."
Luo Yuzhu also soon learned that Xiang Nan was admitted to university, and couldn't help feeling envious and sighing at the same time.
However, she also knew that her conditions were too poor and she was not worthy of others at all, so she could only bury this feeling in her heart.
Moreover, a big tree attracts the wind. Such achievements can easily lead to jealousy and attacks. After all, going to college is not easy these days. And the trend of irritating some people and laughing at others has never been stopped.
But now that he has scored such a high score, it is not appropriate to apply for the Normal College. It would be more suitable to apply for Zhejiang University or Fudan University, but that would be far away from home.
This university is located in Jinhua, which is only a hundred miles away from Yiwu and can be returned in one day. Being so close, we can take care of anything at home at any time.
"I would rather not do so well in the exam." Xiang Nan shook his head and said.
Now that she knows that Xiang Nan did so well in the college entrance examination and will definitely go to college in the future, she knows that the gap between them is even greater, and she can only give up even more.
“He hasn’t even graduated from elementary school, how come his grades are so good?”
Is it a sin to do well in an exam?
It's like Peng Jinxi, the male protagonist in "Riding the Wind and Waves", who finally got into college, but was reported by someone who was interested. As a result, the university he finally got into was ruined.
"No, Brother Daguang, you are such a kind person, so good people should be rewarded with good things. How could anyone harm you?" Qiao Gu advised. "I hope so." Xiang Nan nodded.
…
Subsequently, Xiang Nan went to fill out the application form.
He chose to apply for Fudan University, Zhejiang University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University and several other universities, and all of them were majored in finance, which made it more logical for him to do business in the future.
Just a few days after the registration, Chen Jinshui, Chen Jintu and others also rushed home.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I returned home, I heard the news that Xiang Nan had successfully passed the college entrance examination and passed the undergraduate admission limit.
Chen Jintu was naturally overjoyed, "Oh, my good son, my good son, you have really made dad proud. Well, there is smoke coming out of the ancestral grave of our old Chen family, and a scholar has emerged."
Chen Jinshui, Chen Jinzhu, Chen Mantun and other fellow villagers also felt honored.
“Okay, our Chenjiacun has never produced a single college student in all these years. This time it’s really our ancestors who showed up.” Chen Jinshui said with a smile.
“Daguang is a kid who has been smart since he was a child. Now he will become a college student and become a city dweller. After becoming rich, don’t forget about our fellow villagers in Chenjia Village.” Chen Jinzhu also said with a smile.
“Da Guang, you are really good. Congratulations.” Chen Jianghe said with admiration.
But now he has successfully passed the university entrance examination and has been leaping over the dragon's gate since then, which really makes him both envious and admired.
"Don't say that, everyone. There are still many variables. The admission notice hasn't arrived for a day, so I don't even dare to say that I will be admitted to college." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said. He was not as optimistic as everyone else.
After all, there were many factors that affected the college entrance examination in the 1970s. Even if you passed the exam, you might not be able to go.
Just like in "Dajiang Dahe", siblings Song Yunping and Song Yunhui were both admitted to college, but because of their poor background, only one of them could go to school.
In "Riding the Wind and Waves", Peng Jinxi was also reported for doing business and lost the opportunity to go to university. So he didn't receive the admission notice for a day, and he didn't report to the school for a day, so he couldn't do it accurately.
Seeing what Xiang Nan said, Chen Jinshui nodded and said, "Da Guang is right. He has failed in his efforts. When the official defeat is announced, we will help Da Guang celebrate. Before that, everyone, please don't worry. So that the tree will not attract the wind.”
When everyone heard this, they all nodded.
…
As the saying goes, whatever you are afraid of will come to you. Xiang Nan's worries were indeed not groundless.
Soon someone came to report him and demanded that his admission be revoked.
After hearing about it, the county also took it seriously and sent people to the village to conduct an investigation.
Xiang Nan naturally denied this. He had never been caught anyway, so he refused to admit it.
As the captain of the brigade, Chen Jinshui also led the villagers to help Xiang Nan cover up, saying that he had been working at home and studying for these years, and it was difficult to get into college. He must not mistakenly believe the rumors and ruin the child's life.
Chen Jintu was so angry that he wished he could find the whistleblower and give him a slap in the face. Is it easy for my son to get into college? It took hundreds of years for Chenjiacun to produce such a talented person. Those people actually wanted to destroy him, and he would risk his life to fight them.
Zhang Jiuxiang cried every day and wiped away his tears for his son's grievances. What an honor it is for my son to go to college. Those people are so evil-hearted that they actually went to complain. It's really hateful.
Qiaogu felt very sorry for Xiang Nan, "Brother Daguang, those people are so abominable. They really don't do anything about human affairs. They saw that you were not satisfied with your admission to university, so they went to report you. They are all villains."
After Luo Yuzhu heard about this, she was very worried for Xiang Nan. For this reason, she even hit the villain with the sole of a broken shoe, hoping to help Xiang Nan drive away the villain, get rid of the bad luck, and get admitted to college.
