After returning home from the parent-teacher meeting, Pei Yin came to Xiang Nan's room.
Xiang Nan is sitting at home reading a book. With a cup of tea and a book, my life was very pleasant.
"Hey, Mom, are you back from the parent-teacher meeting?" He heard the voice, looked up and saw Pei Yin, and asked with a smile.
Pei Yin's face looked a little ugly, and he nodded silently.
"What's wrong? What happened? Did my grades fail?" Xiang Nan asked confusedly when he saw this.
"No, you did very well on the test." Pei Yin said slowly, "Yiyi, let me ask you, who is Lin Miaomiao?"
"My classmate, sit in the back seat of me." Xiang Nan was stunned for a moment, then replied, "Mom, what are you asking her for?"
"Are you very close?" Pei Yin asked again.
"Yes." Xiang Nan nodded, "We often play together during the holidays."
Pei Yin was startled. Unexpectedly, my son answered so simply and without any disguise.
"You are often together..." She muttered, almost not daring to ask anymore.
"Mom, I know what you want to ask." Xiang Nan smiled, "We are not alone together, there are Jiang Tianhao and Deng Xiaoqi, the four of us are playing together. Besides, I don't have puppy love now, so you can rest assured. alright."
Pei Yin blinked, "Oh, were you guys playing together yesterday?"
"Yes." Xiang Nan nodded, "Look, I even took photos."
Xiang Nan handed the phone to Pei Yin and said, "Look, the girl with short hair is Lin Miaomiao, the girl with ponytail is Deng Xiaoqi. The boy with short hair is Jiang Tianhao."
"Oh." Pei Yin looked at Lin Miaomiao and Deng Xiaoqi carefully and found that the two girls were quite pretty. "Yiyi, you should have less contact with girls. After all, study is the most important thing now. "
"I know, Mom." Xiang Nan nodded and sighed in his heart.
Pei Yin is really a bit of a control freak. His grades are not only first in the class, but also first in the entire grade. Even nationwide, he is considered to be first-rate.
But she was still dissatisfied. She was afraid that he would fall in love prematurely and that it would affect his studies. She also had to control his social life. She felt even more cruel than Song Qian. At least Song Qian didn't stop her from interacting with Fang Yifan before she misunderstood Yingzi's puppy love.
…
"By the way, Yiyi, today the teacher also talked about the separation of arts and sciences. From the second year of high school, you will have the separation of arts and sciences." Pei Yin said again.
"Mom, you didn't say anything, I will definitely choose the right one." Xiang Nan smiled.
Although he is still promising in studying literature, studying theory is more in line with Qian Sanyi's expectations. After all, he applied for the Physics Department of Tsinghua University, which shows that the idea of "serving the country with science and technology" has long been deeply rooted in his bones.
As for Lin Miaomiao, now that her science scores have caught up, she may not necessarily study literature again. To put it bluntly, even if she chooses articles, it’s actually not a big deal. Xiang Nan majored in arts and sciences, and he had topics to talk about when talking about literature, so he could be downwardly compatible with her.
Of course, the premise is that Lin Miaomiao can be admitted to a good university. Otherwise, even if he can be compatible with her, the Qian family cannot be compatible with her.
"Well, mom also supports you in choosing science." Pei Yin nodded and said, "I think grandpa will also have the same idea."
…
Sure enough, on New Year's Eve, when Qian Shouzhong asked Pei Yin and Qian Sanyi to go home for New Year's Eve dinner, he was very happy and supportive when he heard that Xiang Nan wanted to choose science.
"Yiyi, although you studied both arts and sciences and your grades are very good, grandpa still supports you to choose science." Qian Shouzhong said with a smile, "Because our Qian family has always had a tradition of serving the country through science.
I originally expected your dad to take over my class, but I didn't expect that although he graduated from a prestigious university, he regarded wealth as his life and became a philistine businessman. Therefore, I can only place my hope on you. "
"Don't worry, grandpa, I will definitely work hard to realize your wish, choose science, and become a pillar of the country." Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan quickly expressed his stance.
"Okay, very good, he is indeed my good grandson." Qian Shouzhong smiled, "By the way, your uncle Yuwen also sent an email two days ago, concerned about your studies. He also said that after you graduate, I hope You come to work in his laboratory.”
Xiang Nan was stunned and realized that Jiang Yuwen was Mr. Qian's favorite student and he had been very good at studying since he was a child. After graduating from college, he was admitted to the California Institute of Technology and then worked in the Automation and Robotics Laboratory. He has made outstanding achievements over the years, published many important papers, and is an elite talent who has become famous in related fields.
In addition, Xiang Nan also knew that Jiang Yuwen was Pei Yin's suitor and had a crush on her since childhood. After learning that Pei Yin and Qian Yukun were divorced, he began to pursue her crazily.
To be honest, even though he has been secretly in love for decades, his infatuation to marry someone else is quite touching. But his performance was a little greasy.
In particular, the earthy love words kept coming, such as "I will give you two ways now, one is for you and me to try, the other is for me to try for you", and "this family will have two patterns in the future, one is for me to stay" You go, or we all stay" and so on.
He doesn't sound like a science guru, but rather like an oil king from the Middle East. He is so oily that it makes people uncomfortable.
"Thank you Uncle Yuwen for your concern." Xiang Nan nodded, pretending to be very happy, but in fact he was a little disdainful.
California Institute of Technology is indeed a top international school. But he didn't really care, after all, he was also someone who had been there.
Moreover, based on what he knows, in the field of astrophysics, he is definitely unparalleled in the world. That's why he didn't care about going to Caltech.
…
Just as he was talking, he heard the doorbell ring.
Qin Hanzhi walked over and opened the door, only to see his son Qian Yukun and his daughter-in-law Tian Lili standing outside the door.
"Mom, happy New Year~" Qian Yukun said with a smile, and then walked in carrying large and small packages of gifts.
"Mom, happy New Year~" Tian Lili also smiled and shouted sweetly, and then followed Qian Yukun into the house.
"Yukun, wait a moment..." Qin Hanzhi saw this and quickly stopped him.
But Qian Yukun was quick on his feet and had already walked in, "Dad, Lili and I saw you coming."
Qian Shouzhong was chatting with Xiang Nan in the study, and when he heard the voice, his face suddenly darkened.
"Grandpa, don't be angry." Seeing this, Xiang Nan quickly comforted him.
Qian Shouzhong's health is not very good. He has high blood pressure, high blood fat, and heart disease. If it gets too much stimulation, something could really go wrong.
"Sanyi, go ahead and let them go." Qian Shouzhong nodded and then ordered.
Xiang Nan nodded, walked out, and waved to Qian Yukun, "Dad, come here, I want to tell you something."
"What's the matter, son?" Qian Yukun walked over curiously.
"Dad, grandpa is not in good health and cannot be stimulated. So he asked me to tell you to leave first." Xiang Nan lowered his voice.
Qian Yukun was greatly embarrassed when he heard this.
The reason why he came to visit today was to use the festive energy of the New Year to get his father to accept Tian Lili. But I didn't expect that my father's character would become stronger as he got older, and he would become more and more aggressive as he got older. Even during the Chinese New Year, he would not let his son come home.
Especially in front of his son, he lost all face as a father.
