Chapter 20 Ideals and Money

Hearing his son's answer, both Lin Guowen and Yang Rong were stunned.

For a family of three in 5, an income of 2017 yuan is considered to be the entry stage of the annual income of a well-off family. For their family, it is obviously a lot of money, especially Lin Guowen himself is a city worker. A stock-level cadre of a certain bureau in Li, and Yang Rong only teaches in an elementary school in Jincheng, and the combined salaries of both parties are not high.

For Lin Xiao, the 5 yuan is obviously the largest income he has earned by his own ability since he was born almost 18 years ago. He can resist such a temptation, especially when he promised to study there. , and a monthly subsidy of 1500 yuan.

You know, after the school rewarded Lin Xiao with 2000 yuan last time, he happily refused it, especially when he heard Lin Guowen say that the money was at his own disposal.

So, this made the couple even more confused.

Of course, the son has the idea of ​​a son, and Lin Guowen also wants to know what Lin Xiao thinks.

"Xiaoxiao, are you sure? Neither your mother nor I will ask for the 5 yuan. The 5 yuan will be yours in the future." Lin Guowen said.

Hearing what Lin Guowen said, Lin Xiao's eyes lit up, but soon he became entangled again, 5 yuan, he has never seen his bank card balance exceed 5 digits in his life.

But he finally said: "No, anyway, I believe I can earn more money in the future."

"Haha, very good, very ambitious." Lin Guowen praised, and then said: "However, Dad wants to know why you don't want to go."

Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm used to being in Jincheng."

"I'm used to being in Jincheng, so I won't be able to easily earn 5 yuan in the future. Will you stop going out because you're used to being in Jincheng?" Lin Guowen shook his head: "As a man, you have to cultivate yourself, manage your family, rule the country and the world. Planning, and, you are so smart, would you like to stay in Jincheng in the future? The world is so big."

Father Lin smiled and said, "So, this shouldn't be the real reason?"

Lin Xiao scratched his head and said, "Well, actually, I'm... Well, I don't want to leave you, and I have so many friends and classmates."

"This reason doesn't work either. When you go to college in the future, don't you have to leave me and your mother? If you go to Xijing now, you can just experience a person's life in advance and learn how to communicate with your roommates. And you have friends and classmates here, after you go to a new place, you can meet more friends and classmates, don’t you have more friends and classmates? You should have heard this sentence if you want to make more friends .”

Lin Guowen looked at Lin Xiao's appearance and shook his head: "Forget it, you have your own considerations, and I support your choice."

Yang Rong also rubbed her son's head, and said softly, "Mom also supports you."

Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment after hearing what his parents said, and finally said: "Okay, actually, I want to stay here, but I just think... the education in our province is unfair, so that ordinary high schools like our school can't get it." Some better resources, so now I can at least help our school get some attention. If possible, as a student of Jincheng Middle School, I will become the province's top science student next year. This can also help the school improve the situation, at least in the future Can get some better students or something."

In getting along with Ding Ping, he has always been able to see Ding Ping's helplessness for the imbalance in education. For example, when he entered the provincial team in the league, he could only be rewarded with 2000 yuan, while in other schools, he could reward him at will. For tens of thousands of dollars, schools like those in Xijing can offer him these generous conditions directly.

Therefore, he chose to stay in Jincheng High School. In this way, at least he did not add another drop of oil to the phenomenon of educational imbalance. He also hopes, or believes, that this situation will always disappear in the future.

When he heard his son's words, Lin Guowen was immediately moved. He didn't expect his son to have such ideals and beliefs.

Such ideals and beliefs can already be called lofty, and this is what Lin Guowen, a party member, has been admonishing in the process of educating Lin Xiao.

People can do it for money, but they must have something in their hearts that is higher than money. It can be belief or ideal, but in short it must not be money. When such things conflict with money, money should be given up.

He laughed, patted Lin Xiao on the shoulder, and said heartily: "Okay, a man should do something and not do something, Xiaoxiao, Dad is proud of you."

Yang Rong's eyes were a little red, she covered her mouth with one hand, touched her son's face with the other hand, and said, "As expected of mother's son, he is promising!"

Lin Xiao smiled, and lay in the arms of his parents, and said, "Then... I lost 5 yuan this time, can dad make up for it?"

Lin Guowen was stunned, and laughed and cursed: "You boy, you have blackmailed me!"

……

Afterwards, Lin Xiao still received a reward of 2000 yuan from his father.

His father also officially responded to the school in Xijing, expressing that Lin Xiao was unwilling to go.

A total of four schools contacted Lin Guowen, the High School Affiliated to Xigong University, Xijing Middle School, Gaoxin Middle School and Tieyi Middle School.

Among these schools, the High School Affiliated to Xigong University offered the best conditions. Of course, other schools also offered tens of thousands, and the other benefits were similar.

Knowing that Lin Xiao rejected the invitation, these schools naturally subconsciously thought that other middle schools had given better conditions, so some schools even asked how much other schools offered, and they were willing to give more. learned that Lin Xiao rejected all their school invitations.

This makes these schools a little unbelievable.

Why did Lin Xiao reject them?

They basically knew about Lin Xiao's family and the situation of Jincheng Middle School, so it was impossible for them to refuse all of them.

However, there is nothing they can do about this situation. It is impossible for Lin Guowen to tell the reason why Lin Xiao did not go. Maybe it will attract jokes from these big city people. You are an ordinary student with no background. Can it face the social environment?
Of course, after knowing that other schools have not succeeded, the people in these schools can be relieved, as long as the rivals are not successful.

So, this matter is over.

……

The time came to the Saturday of the first week after the midterm exam. This day was November 11th, and there was only one week left before Lin Xiao went to Xijing to gather.

However, on this day, the third year of Jincheng Middle School held a parent-teacher meeting.

Every parent meeting will invite the parent of a student to come on stage and talk about how to raise children.

The parents of the invited students are naturally parents of students with good academic performance.

And this time, Lin Xiao's parents were invited without any surprise. Yang Rong happened to have time, so she came to attend the parent meeting.
