Chapter 7 Poor Parents in the World
At nearly 5 o'clock, Wu Bin returned home. As soon as he opened the door, he smelled a tangy fragrance.
"Mom, it's time to get my hair done."
Wu Bin put down his schoolbag and went straight to the kitchen.
"You're back, come on, come here and have a taste." Wu Bin's mother, who was washing vegetables in the kitchen, shouted.
"Hey, come on!"
Wu Bin walked into the kitchen, picked up a spoon, scooped out a bowl of hoof soup, blew a few breaths, and took a sip.
"Is it salty?" Wu Bin's mother turned her head and looked at Wu Bin and asked.
"Not salty, just right, very fresh."
After Wu Bin finished speaking, he was about to take a second sip when he heard his mother suddenly ask again in a sultry tone, "Isn't it salty?"
'Oops, something's not right. ’
Wu Bin, who smelled the strange smell in his mother's words, poked his head out of the kitchen and glanced at his father, who was sitting on the sofa watching "Happy Show", and found that he also had a bit of dissatisfaction on his face.
Wu Bin, who understood what was going on, took another sip of the soup and said, "I didn't feel it when I drank too little just now, but I did feel it was salty after the second sip. Well, it was too salty!"
"Hey~ let me tell you!" Wu Bin's mother's voice immediately raised, "Your dad, you must add two more spoons of salt after tasting it. He is becoming more and more powerful now, and he has all the stinky habits in the workplace. Home is coming!”
"What bad habits have I come back with! Why do you always get on top of things?" Wu Bin's father immediately expressed his dissatisfaction upon hearing this.
"Why, did I say the wrong thing about you?"
Seeing that his mother was about to pick up the spatula and run out of the living room, Wu Bin quickly stopped her.
"No, Mom, I'll go talk to Dad and calm down."
After saying that, Wu Bin ran to the living room and said loudly and deliberately: "Dad, this is your fault. Go and apologize quickly."
"I didn't do anything wrong, I said..."
In the middle of Wu Bin's father's words, he suddenly saw Wu Bin secretly raising his index finger and making a "1" gesture.
"This..." Wu Bin's father thought for a moment after reading it, and then raised two fingers.
Wu Bin thought for a moment and nodded.
Wu Bin's father was a drinker, but his drinking capacity was not very good. One time when he went out to attend the wedding of his neighbor's son, he secretly drank a few glasses of white wine. He was so drunk that he passed out. Wu Bin pinched him for a while before he woke up. From then on, Wu Bin's mother strictly prohibited him from drinking.
But there is one situation where an exception can be made, that is, Wu Bin has two drinks with his father, two votes to one, and thinking that it can enhance the relationship between the two fathers, the most Wu Bin's mother can say is "Don't drink too much."
What Wu Bin gestured to his father just now was that if he was willing to give in this time, he would have a drink with him.
After finally settling the deal with two cups, Wu Bin's father ran to the kitchen, coughed slightly and said, "My dear wife, I was wrong. You are still good at making soup. I shouldn't have interfered. I shouldn't have interfered."
"Stop doing this, put the dishes on the table and get ready to eat."
Wu Bin's mother also knew that she was in some wrong, and now that she had a lot of face, she naturally didn't say much.
After resolving a "family crisis", Wu Bin silently sat down to drink soup and continued to read his English book.
But he hadn’t read it for a while when Wu Bin’s mother came over and knocked his book down and said, “Why are you so pretentious while eating?”
"Who are you pretending to be reading?" Wu Bin said and picked up the English book.
"Hey, the acting looks pretty good. Do you want to add some pocket money?"
Naturally, Wu Bin's mother didn't believe Wu Bin's words. How could she know that her son was having trouble studying?
"I don't mean that. I just suddenly found studying interesting."
Wu Bin's mother was immediately amused and said, "Okay, okay, mom is waiting for you to get admitted to Tsinghua University." ""
Wu Bin didn't expect her mother to believe him right away, so she simply continued to immerse herself in reading.
"You're excited, aren't you?"
Wu Bin's mother said that she was going to snatch Wu Bin's book, but was stopped by Wu Bin's father who was bringing rice.
"It's always a good thing for children to read, so don't dampen their enthusiasm."
"It's not like you don't know that your son didn't even read when I chased him with a broom before, but now you can like him?"
However, although Wu Bin's mother still said she didn't believe it, she took her hand away from the English book.
‘Reading is indeed a privilege. ’
Looking at his biological mother who stopped talking, Wu Bin couldn't help but sigh in his heart. In the past, even if he took out his mobile phone to read a few messages during dinner, he would be talked about for a long time.
After dinner, Wu Bin drank two glasses of yellow wine with his father. When he returned to his room, he took out the sets of papers Liu Yushan gave him from his schoolbag, looked at the questions for a while and started working on them.
During this week, Wu Bin was dealing with functions almost all the time. At the beginning, he was able to do a few finger functions and comprehensive application questions on functions very smoothly, but then the abstract functions that troubled him the most became a bit annoying.
Moreover, Liu Yushan and he emphasized that because abstract functions can comprehensively test students' understanding of the concepts and properties of functions, and also integrate the definition domain, value range, monotonicity, parity, periodicity and images of functions, so It appears very frequently in the college entrance examination and is the top priority in learning.
Originally, Wu Bin's knowledge of functions was not that comprehensive. It was a headache to prove this kind of question, but he couldn't leave it blank, so he had to do the math.
In the end, Wu Bin solved the problem with great difficulty using the yuan-changing method. The feeling of victory was of course wonderful. Wu Bin happily drank a sip of Wangzai milk to celebrate.
After celebrating, Wu Bin stretched and continued to challenge the next question.
In 2008, a city built 1 million square meters of new housing, including 250,000 square meters of affordable housing. Relevant departments plan to increase the area of new housing every year by 5% compared with the previous year, of which 100,000 square meters of affordable housing will be added every year. Under this plan, when is the first year that the area of affordable housing built in that year exceeds half of the area of new housing built in that year?
Wu Bin touched his chin, thought for a moment, and started doing calculations on the scratch paper.
Assume that the area of newly built housing in year 1+5%)x
Finally, the known conditions are substituted into the verification...
"That is, X=4." Wu Bin tapped the test paper with his pen.
So the answer is 2012.
Wu Bin, who easily solved a problem, couldn't help feeling a little swollen, and continued humming a little tune.
…
At 2 o'clock in the morning, Wu Bin's mother got up and went to the bathroom. When she came out, she found that the light in Wu Bin's room was still on. She couldn't help but shake her head, "She said she wanted to study hard, why not stay up all night playing games."
After saying that, he walked over and pushed open the door of Wu Bin's room, "What time is it? I'm still not sleeping! I see you... huh?"
Wu Bin's mother was about to scold her, but she found that Wu Bin seemed to be... doing papers? Judging from the densely written draft paper on the table, it didn't look like he was pretending, or he didn't need to pretend to himself. After all, she had already made it clear for this son that she only wanted him to be kind-hearted. As long as you're healthy, it's good to be in good health. If you don't have the talent to study, then it won't work.
"Oh, I'll go to bed soon." Wu Bin turned his head and said with a fairy look on his face.
"Oh, you kid, you don't work so hard." Looking at Wu Bin who looked tired, Wu Bin's mother expressed distress in her tone.
"I have a poor foundation, so I have no choice but to fight." Wu Bin smiled at his mother.
"Are you hungry? I'll cook you something to eat."
"It's really good. Do you have any wontons?"
"Yes, I will pack it for you now, just wait."
20 minutes later, Wu Bin was eating hot wontons stuffed with cabbage and pork, and said while eating: "Mom, go to bed, I'll just finish making this roll."
"Mom, I'm not sleepy, I just want to stay with you for a while." Wu Bin's mother touched Wu Bin's head, "It won't affect you, right?"
"It doesn't matter. If you want to accompany you, just sit here."
Wu Bin carried a small chair to his mother.
"It's okay, I'll just stand and watch for a while."
"Okay, then I'll continue with the questions."
Looking at the expression on his mother's face, Wu Bin couldn't help but feel a little sad. Although she always said verbally that it was okay if she didn't like studying, and that only a good mind can gain a foothold in society, but she was actually very worried in her heart. After all, in this real society , it is really difficult to survive without a good diploma.
