Chapter 5: Preparation
It was a few days more to the Civil Servant entrance test.Since Dong Xuebing had promised his mother, he had to do his best.
After dinner, Dong Xuebing returned to his room and startedto go through all the cupboards and drawers, looking for something. He found a stackOptically answer sheet and a stack of writing papers from under his bed. He hadused these Optically answer sheets during his high school days. he placed the sheetsand paper on his desk and prepared his stationaries, like eraser and 2Bpencils. He started training his memory. ABCD, 1234...
This was the only way Dong Xuebing could pass the CivilServant Test. Although the chances of him passing was less than 20%, he wasdetermined to try.
The next morning.
Dong Xuebing woke up on the couch among the stacks of answersheets. He immediately continued practising. "AABDDCCABDC..." He closed his eyesand started to rattle off the answers from his mind.
Dong Xuebing's mother felt he was being weird and asked:"Xuebing, what are you doing?"
Dong Xuebing coughed and replied: "Preparations."
His mother looked at him: "Didn't you bought the revisionmaterials for the test? Why are you looking at those old answer sheets?"
"Oh... don't mind me. I know what to do." If Dong Xuebingcould still use Back on the day of the test, all his efforts will not bewasted.
Practice... Practice... Practice...
One hour... Two hours... 3 hours...
Ring, ring, ring. Dong Xuebing's handphone rang. He took alook at the caller ID and it was an unknown number. "Hello?"
"Hi, are you Xiao Dong?" The caller asked. He sounded quiteold.
"Yes, you are...?"
"My surname is Hu."
Dong Xuebing replied: "Oh... You are Grandpa Hu? How's yourhealth?" You'll discover the inception of this content at n0v@lbin★
"Thanks for asking. I am feeling good. Haha... are you busytoday? If you are free, can you come over to the hospital to accompany me?"
Grandpa Hu was very knowledgeable. His explanations were clear and easy to understand.
After a few hours, Dong Xuebing got more comfortable withGrandpa Hu. He was able to talk freely. "Sighed... The person who set thesequestions is too much. Why did he set such difficult questions? Is he trying tomake things difficult for us?" Dong Xuebing grumbled. "I had practiced the past year's questions and noticed that the questions were getting harderand harder each year. It is easy for the one who set these questions. He justmoves his mouth. But we are the ones who are suffering. Who did we offend?"
Grandpa Hu frowned and did not say a word.
"Huh?" Dong Xuebing was shocked. Did I say the wrong thing?
After a while, Grandpa Hu said: "You should not be sayingthese. If these questions are easy, then what's the use of having this test?There will only be one or two vacancies, andif all the candidates scored full marks, they wouldstill have to compete with each other. Itwill still be the same." Grandpa Hu flipped open a reference book and pointedto the page: "My son and I are scholars. But he is more capable than me and hadbecome a professor years ago. Look, he is the one who set most of last year'sShanghai Civil Servant Test's essay questions."
Dong Xuebing realized that when he grumbled about the personwho set the questions, he had also scolded Grandpa Hu's son indirectly.
Shit. Me and my big mouth...
Oh yes, I still have not use"Back" today.
Back!
...
The time returned back to one minute ago. Dong Xuebing couldfeel his mouth moving. He should be in the middle of saying something. GrandpaHu who was listening to him frowned. Dong Xuebing looked at his facialexpression and knew that he had used Back too late. "Errr... Grandpa Hu, wheredid I stop?"
Grandpa Hu smiled weakly and said: "You are saying that theone who set these questions is making things difficult for you all."
"Yes." Dong Xuebing immediately thought of how to continue."Making things difficult for all of us."
Grandpa Hu knitted his brows.
"But..." Dong Xuebing continued and picked up the revisionbook who contains all the past years'questions. "But two years ago, Beihe Province and last year's Shanghaiquestions was quite meaningful. Look at the questions. Although it isdifficult, but from the questions, youwill know that the person who set these questions have a higher standard ofeducation. If I encounter these questions during this year's test, I will haveno grumbles even if I can't answer them."
Grandpa Hu stared blankly at him for a while and burst outlaughing: "Xiao Dong... I will tell you something. My son is the one who set theessay questions for last year's Shanghai essay questions."
Dong Xuebing pretended to be surprised: "Ah?"
"My son is more capable than me." Grandpa Hu stroked hisbeard and smilingly said: "Haha. Xiao Dong, I will teach you how to answeressay questions, and I promise you willscore high marks."
"Really?"
"Of course. If you can't pass, you can come and look forme!"
