Chapter 184 Exam
Chapter 184 Exam
Zhan Yu tied the donkey cart under the shade of a tree on the roadside and asked the old man at the mail room for half a bucket of water for the donkey to drink.
After Zhan Yu arranged the donkey cart, the old man at the mail room door brought Zhan Yu and Zhan Mengyan into the mail room.
Zhan Yu chatted with the old man at the mailroom door for a while and found that a teacher had come to work.
"Uncle, can I take a walk around the campus? Just to get familiar with the environment and find the classroom for the exam." Zhan Mengyan asked the old man who was the security guard at the mail room.
When the old man at the mailroom learned that Zhan Yu was from Xinxing Township, he asked Zhan Yu if there was an old military doctor named Zhan in Xinxing Township who had participated in the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea. Zhan Yu smiled and told him that he was the doctor. The old man at the mailroom was very excited. He said happily: "My child, look at me and your father. We are so good at talking that we have forgotten about you as a candidate. Go ahead, get familiar with the examination room. After you finish the exam, come to the mailroom to find your father. I feel that you must not have any relatives to visit in Jianye Township. It's just right that your father is waiting for you in the mailroom. I heard that your father is the famous Doctor Zhan in Xinxing Township. I was lucky enough to meet him today. It's really "no effort is spared when you find it after searching everywhere". When you all enter the examination room and pass the exam, I will ask your father to feel my pulse."
Zhan Mengyan went to familiarize herself with the examination room. Soon, candidates who were going to take the exam entered Jianye Middle School one after another. Some candidates were holding books and reciting something in front of the examination room, which was really "sharpening the gun before the battle - it's not fast but it's bright"; some candidates were so nervous that they paced back and forth in front of the examination room; some candidates admired the colorful roses blooming in the flowerbed of Jianye Middle School... Zhan Mengyan was very interested in watching the bees and butterflies attracted by the fragrance of the flowers dancing around the flowers.
"Ding-ling-ling, ding-ling-ling..." The exam time has arrived. The candidates lined up with their admission tickets and walked into the examination room.
Zhan Mengyan handed in her test paper before the end of the exam and ran to the mail room to find Zhan Yu.
Zhan Yu was writing a prescription for the old man who was guarding the mailroom. When he saw Zhan Mengyan coming in, he dropped his pen in surprise and said, "Mengyan, the bell for the end of the exam hasn't rung yet, why did you come out? Are the questions too difficult and you don't know them? Then you should think about it for a while. Why did you come out before the time is up?"
The old man at the mailroom door saw Zhan Yu's face change from surprise to reproach, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Brother Zhan Yu, don't blame the child first, ask the child what's going on. This is just a Chinese test, and there are still four subjects to be tested: mathematics, English, physics, and chemistry. It doesn't matter if you do well in one subject, you have to look at the total score."
"Mengyan, tell me quickly, how many questions do you not know how to answer? You didn't answer them all? Why did you leave the exam room so early?" Zhan Yu asked hurriedly.
"Dad, why are you always so unconfident in me? I know all the questions. I answered them and checked them over and only handed in the test paper when I felt there were no problems." Zhan Mengyan said aggrievedly.
Zhan Yu sighed with relief and said, "Meng Yan, you scared your dad. Didn't your mom tell you last night to check your papers several times before handing them in? Don't come out so early for the next few subjects. You must check your papers several times after finishing them. Go back to the examination room and prepare for the next exam."
"Okay, I understand." Zhan Mengyan said as she walked towards the examination classroom.
"Mengyan, my niece, come on. Your father and I are waiting for good news from you. Your uncle will make you something delicious at noon." The old man who is the security guard at the mail room said to Zhan Mengyan.
"Thank you, uncle." Zhan Mengyan turned around and bowed to the old man who was the security guard at the mail room to express her gratitude.
"Ding-ling-ling, ding-ling-ling..." The bell for the end of the exam rang, and Zhan Mengyan followed the candidates out of the examination room.
Old Liu, the doorman at the mailroom, looked at the candidates coming out and said to Zhan Yu, "Brother Zhan, when you see my niece Meng Yan later, don't ask her about the test questions or how she answered. Based on my experience over the years, most elders don't ask about important exams before all subjects are finished, which will affect the candidates' mood. A bad mood will affect the test results of the next subject."
Zhan Mengyan came to the mail room. Zhan Yu listened to the advice of the mail room guard, Old Man Liu, and did not ask Zhan Mengyan whether the test questions were difficult or how she answered them. Instead, he handed the hot buns to Zhan Mengyan and said, "This is the bun that Uncle Liu, the mail room guard, gave you. He also asked his wife to make chicken stewed with mushrooms for you. His family lives nearby. After you finish the last two exams this afternoon, we will go to Uncle Liu's house to thank Aunt Liu. I will take her pulse and check her condition."
"What are you thanking me for? Today, I'm so lucky to have you, the famous doctor Zhan, to treat my wife. Mengyan, eat it while it's hot. Try this chicken soup. It's so fresh and refreshing. I guarantee that after drinking this chicken soup, your hair will be fresh and refreshing all the way to your heels. This is your aunt's specialty. She cooked it all morning."
