Chapter 251 Mountain Climbing ([-])

This time, there was a warm fire in front of his eyes.

Sitting next to him were his parents and younger sister, his mother looked worried, while his father was serious.

After a while, the father said:
"You're going to take the college entrance examination, and I won't stop you, but you also have to know that it's very difficult at home now."

"Your mother and I are not in good health, and your sister is still unmarried, and we are still supporting you. Therefore, even if you pass the exam, we really don't have the money for you to go to a university in a big city."

"You can only rely on yourself, you know? The city is not like our country. It's not easy to get a bite. I heard that the children of the Wang family couldn't stay in the city after passing the exam. They came back this year to plant landed."

"If you want to study and contribute to the country, we all support it, but you have to see if we can afford it!"

The moment his father finished speaking, a huge flow of information suddenly flooded into Ye Zhou's mind.

But this time the information flow is different from the past, it contains not only information, but also extremely complex emotions.

fear, hesitation, dread, inferiority, cowardice
These emotions were presented in Ye Zhou's mind very realistically. At this moment, he really experienced the emotional fluctuations that shook him --- even if he knew that he was in a simulation, he was powerless to resist it. kind of fluctuation.

Yes, father was right.

I am just an ordinary child from the countryside, even if I have some talent in reading, so what?Can I pass the college entrance examination and enter the university?

My competitors are not just these children in the countryside, but all candidates from all over the country!

They are different from themselves. Their living conditions since childhood are much better than their own. The textbooks that I have read countless times are just an introductory book for them. For them, it's as simple as everyday food.

Why should I think that I can be stronger than them?
impossible.

Taking a [-]-step back, even if I was really lucky, got a good grade in the college entrance examination that just resumed, and was admitted to a university, what should I do after that?
go to school?What money do you use to go to school?To exchange the harvest of the parents' hard work at home, and then let them go hungry?

No, it's not just that.

Even if the tuition fees are borne by the state, it is said that the university has to pay at least 30 catties of grain every month, and their family cannot afford the 30 catties of grain.

If I went, would I really starve to death in the city?
will you?

Unaccompanied, helpless, bizarre, indifferent city.

I have never been to a city that I have never really understood its true appearance.

Perhaps, giving up is the best choice.

Maybe, I should just stay in the small mountain village honestly, farm the land with my parents, and my life will probably get better and better in the future?

Such thoughts emerged one after another, and Ye Zhou almost lost his position, saying "I'm not going".

But in an instant, it seemed like a thunderbolt flashed through his mind.

He couldn't help it, it was his only chance.

The choice he has to make is definitely not just as simple as affecting the fate of a family.

At this moment, or at that moment in history, the decision he makes will greatly affect the progress of the entire China in the field of quantum computing.

Although from this point of view, he has not yet figured out how the impact occurred.

"I must go!"

Ye Zhou replied firmly.

Father sighed deeply, and continued to speak:
"Then go. I know that you won't be reconciled if you don't make a foray, but you have to remember that if you really can't survive, you can come back. We still want you to take care of yourself!"

Ye Zhou nodded silently.

For the time being, he doesn't know the experience of the identity master he simulated, so he doesn't have the confidence to say "I will definitely make a good name for myself" such rhetoric.

Mother didn't speak, but stood up to pack Ye Zhou's luggage.

"Mom, let me come."

Ye Zhou said with some difficulty.

At this time, his mind was still being pounded by complicated emotions, worrying about his parents, responsibilities to his family, and attachment to his homeland.
All these emotions are intertwined, even though he has made a decision, but this decision is not firm.

Maybe it only takes a small disturbance, and his emotions will collapse again.

And this disturbance came very timely.

There was a knock on the door of the room, and it was the only mountain village teacher in the village who walked in.

"Ms. Li, you are here, sit down quickly."

Ye Zhou looked at the man wearing glasses, and the other party just happened to look at him.

After a while, he opened his mouth and said:
"Ye Zhou, I know that you want to go to university and want a chance to stand out, but I also have such an opportunity here."

"The County Art Troupe is expanding its enrollment. They need calligraphy teachers, mainly to participate in the activities of the Children's Palace and teach the children in the Children's Palace to write."

"The pay is high—several times higher than what I'm making now, and it's a respectable job, and you can reach a lot of people through those kids."

"Your handwriting is very good, I think you should try it."

"Do you know what I mean? You don't have to read books to get ahead."

Hearing this, Ye Zhou was taken aback for a moment.

He knew that Teacher Li was right.

Not just because of his memory in the simulation, but because of his foresight looking back decades into history.

In this era, as long as a young man who is educated and good at calligraphy, as long as he gets on the line of the art troupe, it is almost impossible for him to develop well.

Not to mention that this line is in contact with the children of the Children's Palace. It goes without saying that they know the family background of these children who can enter the Children's Palace.

It really is an opportunity, and a big one at that.

If you really follow this path, does it matter whether you read or not?

On the one hand, it is to go to a foreign country and struggle to survive in a strange city; on the other hand, it is to immediately receive wage subsidies for the family, and there are also excellent opportunities for development.

I am afraid that any reasonable person knows which side to choose.

However, Ye Zhou happened not to be a truly rational person.

He is an idealist.

He wants to do bigger things, to achieve greater results, to be a scientist, to do research, to completely change the country and the world.

The only question is, can you do it yourself?
Contradictions and chaotic thoughts intertwined in Ye Zhou's mind, and gradually, a hallucination seemed to appear in front of his eyes.

What he saw in front of him was no longer the cramped hut, but the snow-covered mountain that he had climbed in his childhood.

However, the present mountain is made up of all negative thoughts, all obstructions, and all desires for utilitarian pursuits.

At the foot of the mountain is a life of security, tranquility, and possibly abundance.

Behind the mountain is a wider and more profound world that he pursues.

His ideal is behind the mountain.

But if he wants to realize this ideal, he must first climb over the mountain in his heart.

To climb a mountain.

Ye Zhou hugged his head. What he felt at this moment was [-]% real pain.

The pain that comes with choice.

He is climbing.

He was climbing extremely slowly and with great difficulty.

The obstacles on this mountain were eliminated one by one by him with absolutely rational thinking, but what supported his will was a kind of perceptual idealism.

Responsibilities to the family?This does not conflict with his pursuit, and even after he has learned something, he can better take on this responsibility.

Attachment to homeland?People always want to grow, and they always want to drift.

Fear of strange cities?He asked himself, for his own ideals, even if he sacrificed his life, why should he be afraid of a city?
Another option?No, that was never his choice, he was never content with it.

After a long time, Ye Zhou finally raised his head.

His eyes were extremely bright.

"I want to take the college entrance examination, I want to study mathematics, I want to study physics, and I want to do research."

"I'm going to change this country, and then let our country change the world."

"Dad, Mom, I just can't be filial at this time, not forever."

"Your son is an eagle, and the eagle is destined to fly over the snow-capped mountains, and now, the mountains are here."

Looking at the complicated eyes of everyone opposite, Ye Zhou was relieved instead.

He climbed up this mountain.
