Chapter 725 Competing! (Seeking monthly votes)

In this era, students who can get into top universities are definitely among the elite.

Putting everything else aside, he's definitely smart.

Don't be fooled by those period novels!
Since the resumption of the college entrance examination, the first three cohorts were indeed relatively easier to pass!
Even for time travelers, unless they happen to be in their final or second year of high school and are top students, they still need to put in a tremendous amount of effort to review.

In novels, it seems like getting into Tsinghua or Peking University is an easy task.

But the truth is that the first and second classes of the "Old Three Classes" were mostly academic prodigies.

They may have been working for a long time, or they may have been farming in the countryside for quite some time.

However, it was thanks to his own learning talent and occasional accumulation of knowledge that he was able to soar to great heights after the college entrance examination was reopened.

It wasn't until the third cohort that top-performing graduating students truly emerged.

The later you get into a top university, the more difficult it becomes.

By 1985, the difficulty of the college entrance examination had changed dramatically.

Given the pitifully low acceptance rate, those who can get in based on their genuine abilities are truly highly intelligent individuals.

Those who can secure government-funded overseas study opportunities at top universities, where highly intelligent individuals are concentrated, are naturally among the elite.

Similarly, even Wu Zhi was quite impressed when he heard that his colleague's son was studying abroad on a government scholarship.

However, he didn't know what his third daughter-in-law's intention was in suddenly bringing this up.
He had nothing more to say to his youngest daughter-in-law.

As long as she doesn't harm Wu Aijun and her children's education doesn't go too far astray, let her do whatever she wants.

"Our sales department head used his connections to send his son to study in the United States!"

The third daughter-in-law continued her performance, her delicate face full of envy and longing: "According to him, as long as you have enough money, there are specialized agencies that can help your children study in the United States!"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became heavy.

Wu Zhi had a headache. He rubbed his forehead and said irritably, "The two little ones are still too young, aren't they?"

"It's not too late to think about this after they finish college or high school!"

"Dad, the sooner we go abroad to study, the better!"

The third daughter-in-law retorted, dissatisfied, "I've heard that quite a few people have already sent their children abroad to attend primary school!"

"Oh, since you're so envious, why don't you try it yourself? I won't object, okay?"

Wu Zhi said in a cold tone, "You and Ai Jun are both thirty years old, so I can't interfere too much!"

"dad!"

The third daughter-in-law panicked and waved her hand, saying, "That's not what I meant!"

Just kidding, if it weren't for Wu Zhi, their father-in-law, providing the expenses for going abroad, where would their family have come from?
"Aijun, what are your thoughts?"

Wu Zhi ignored his anxious third daughter-in-law and looked directly at Wu Aijun: "Do you also want to send the two younger ones abroad to study?"

"I do not mind!"

Wu Aijun waved his hand and said, "As long as she doesn't bother me, I'll let her do whatever she wants!"

"Aijun, those are your two children. Don't you think about their future?"

The third daughter-in-law was dissatisfied and retorted, "The education system in the United States is much better than that in China!"

"Don't try to label me, I can't take that responsibility!"

Wu Aijun said indifferently, "Do whatever you want. Anyway, I neither support nor oppose it, and I'm not going to reveal all my secrets!"

"Dad, look at Aijun..."

"Go argue at home!"

Wu Zhi bluntly rebuked him: "I just want to know, if we send the two younger ones abroad to study, can you afford the expenses?"

“We’ll need Dad’s help with this!” the third daughter-in-law said matter-of-factly. “Anyway, Dad doesn’t have any other expenses, and I heard that the Gulou Factory has a certain amount of foreign exchange reserves…”

"So how much do you need?"

"Fifty thousand dollars, please. After all, the two younger ones are too young, and I need to go with them to accompany them to school!"

"Then you don't need your job!"

"Why would I need to work if I could make a lot of money in the US?"

"So, you're planning to divorce Aijun, right?"

"How could that be? We're so old, and we have two children!"

"So what were you thinking, taking both children abroad with you? Did you consider Aijun's feelings?"

"How could he possibly feel? As long as his two children have a better future, I think he should accept it!"

Awesome!
Wu Zhi looked at his third daughter-in-law, who was speaking so confidently, and didn't know what to say. She was simply an absolute oddball.

At that moment, he felt a pang of sympathy for his third son, Wu Aijun.

He married a wife who was all looks but no brains.

But they are also particularly prone to being led astray by others, and who knows how many bizarre things they have encountered at home?
"Have you considered sending the two younger ones to study at Nanhua University?"

Wu Zhi forcibly suppressed his displeasure and asked directly, "If we went to study in Nanhua, there wouldn't be so much trouble!"

"Dad, America is the world's number one superpower!"

The third daughter-in-law blurted out, "What does Nanhua have to compare with the United States?"

"Hehe, you certainly have excellent taste!"

Wu Zhi sneered, "Anyone who didn't know better would think you were some kind of genius!"

Seeing that his third daughter-in-law was about to say something, he waved his hand and said leisurely, "This year, let's go to Nanhua as a family for the New Year!"

Wu Aiguo repeatedly asked him to come over for the New Year, but Wu Zhi never agreed.

However, for now, he felt he could take his third son and his daughter-in-law to see what Nanhua was like.

As for the rest, he couldn't be bothered with them.

"The two younger ones are still young, there's no need to rush their schooling!"

"When you get back, you can have a good discussion with your parents and see what the plan is!"

"As for the money at home, you can rest assured. It's not as much as you think. You'd be lucky to get five thousand in cash!"

After saying that, he waved his hand, indicating that his third daughter-in-law could get lost.

I really don't know how to evaluate this third daughter-in-law.

"Dad, are we really going to Nanhua for the New Year?"

After his mother, Zhang Li, pulled his wife away, Wu Aijun seemed to suddenly come to life, his face full of excitement as he asked her questions.

"Let me call your older brother and make sure this is all settled!"

Wu Zhi said irritably, "I don't know what your wife is thinking, actually wanting to take the two kids to study in America by herself!"

"If something really happens to her, she'll be completely helpless there!"

"Ha, isn't it just that you want to compete with your colleagues?"

Wu Aijun, who knew the inside story, said disdainfully, "Dad, you went to great lengths to get her transferred to the department store in the city, and you think you're something special, trying to compete with your colleagues at the department store!"

"She doesn't even consider who those people are. Anyway, I'm too lazy to argue with her about this stuff!"
