From July 3rd to 11th, the International Chemistry Olympiad was held in Norway.

Xu Haiyuan accompanied the team leader and other students to compete abroad. After several days of competition, Xu Haiyuan finally won the gold medal with perfect theoretical scores and the highest operational scores.

When the news spread back to China, everyone was crazy with joy.

Xu Shiyan and Su Anying received countless congratulatory calls, and many people shouted for Xu Shiyan to prepare a banquet for guests.

Xu Shiyan and his wife were naturally extremely happy that their son had achieved such outstanding results.

What’s the point of setting up a banquet? Who needs the money for the banquet?

Xu Shiyan readily agreed that when Xu Haiyuan comes back, he will definitely treat everyone to a drink.

On July 23rd, Xu Haiyuan finally returned to Donggang after celebrating his achievements and commending him all the way.

The most solemn welcome ceremony was also held here in Donggang, with gongs, drums and lanterns to welcome Xu Haiyuan home.

"Good boy, you've made Donggang look good this time.

The World Gold Medal, let alone our small town, even in our county and city, has never heard of it."

The secretary of Donggang Town and the principal of Donggang Junior High School came forward in person. One brought flowers to Xu Haiyuan, and the other put a ribbon on his head.

Especially the principal of the junior high school, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

Xu Haiyuan was once a student of Donggang Junior High School.

A middle school in such a remote town not only produced several national champions, but also a world champion. Any principal would have jumped for joy.

Ever since Xu Haiyuan set foot in China, he has been used to these welcoming ceremonies.

"Thank you, principal, and thank you, Uncle Song." Xu Haiyuan bowed to the two of them calmly to show his gratitude.

The welcoming ceremony was quite normal up to this point, but in the next second, many of Xu Haiyuan's classmates from junior high school and elementary school came rushing towards me with cheers.

Everyone immediately lifted Xu Haiyuan up, threw it into the sky, caught it, and then threw it again and caught it again.

The crowd burst into cheers, and everyone clapped and laughed.

Xu Haiyuan was really confused now.

There were so many celebrations and commendations along the way, and they were all so polite. How could he have imagined that after returning home, everyone would do this to him?

This feeling of being thrown in the air and caught again is really not a good feeling.

"Okay, okay, please spare me, this thing is too scary."

Xu Haiyuan quickly begged for mercy. He didn't want to be thrown around like a ball.

"Stop, put it down."

Huang Shuqing was the leader of this group. When he said stop, everyone stopped throwing Xu Haiyuan hard and gently put him on the ground.

Then, the classmates came forward and hugged Xu Haiyuan one by one.

"Awesome, we are proud to have a classmate like you."

"Squad leader, if you become prosperous in the future, be sure to think of us. We will all join you in the future."

"Yes, yes, we can rely on you. You were our class leader before, and you will still be our leader in the future.

Whatever you tell us to do, we will listen to you. We can do whatever we want from behind the wheel."

Everyone was talking about anything, but everyone's admiration and blessings for Xu Haiyuan were sincere.

These young people, who are only seventeen or eighteen years old and less than twenty, are clear and innocent. Everyone regards Xu Haiyuan as their idol, the person they admire the most.

Xu Haiyuan only felt that his eyes were a little uncomfortable and sour at the moment.

Xu Haiyuan has always been calm and composed, with maturity and wisdom far beyond his peers. The celebration parties he held all the way back failed to impress him.

However, at this moment, Xu Haiyuan only felt that his throat was a little blocked, his heart was swollen, and an indescribable emotion was rolling in his heart.

"Good brothers and good classmates, I am proud to have you."

Xu Haiyuan patted the other person's back with his backhand and blinked hard to make himself feel better.

"Let's go, let you take a look at our celebration banquet today."

Huang Shuqing, Yang Jianguo, Sun Yu and other friends who had grown up together came forward, surrounded Xu Haiyuan, and walked towards the gate of the market.

Xu Haiyuan still felt strange. Shouldn't he be asked to go home and visit his grandparents first? Why did he come to the ginseng market?

As soon as he entered the Canshi Compound, Xu Haiyuan was stunned by the scene inside.

In the open space of the Shenzhen City Courtyard, a large shed, stove and eucalyptus boards were erected on the south side.

A dozen cooks in white coats and white hats were busy cooking.

From the shed to the north, the entire open space in the courtyard is filled with tables, chairs and benches of all kinds.

Not only are the round and square ones at home standing aside, but there are also school desks.

Two or three wooden double desks can be put together to form a large desk.

No need to ask, this must be because there are not enough dining tables, and I don’t know who came up with the idea to use the desks as dining tables.

Looking around, the huge open space was filled with tables, probably at least a hundred tables.

Xu Haiyuan couldn't help but be speechless, dear, is this a little too grand and extravagant?

Is this okay? His father won't be reported for this, right?

"What are you doing standing around? Come here, Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu are waiting for you over there."

Huang Shuqing and others dragged Xu Haiyuan to the front and middle table together.

Sitting here are Xu Chenghou, Su Weizhong, Chu Xuanhuai, Han Wenzhong, Su Weicheng, Zhou Anping, Zhou Anfu, Zhao Dahai, Yu Shouguang and others.

Chu Xuanhuai came back with Su Anying, Xu Jinping, and Yang Haoyu.

Su Anying's study at the Business College has ended. She does not need an internship to find a job, so she has one year less than ordinary junior college students.

Xu Jinping and Yang Haoyu are studying at the High School Affiliated to the Provincial Normal University, and have already completed the entire senior high school curriculum this semester.

When they learned that their brother had won the award, how could the two of them stay still? Together with Su Anying, they accompanied Chu Xuanhuai back to celebrate Xu Haiyuan.

"Grandpa, grandpa, master, eldest grandpa, grandpa Han, eldest uncle, second uncle."

The people sitting at this table were all old men, and Xu Haiyuan called people one by one.

"Hey, good boy, come quickly and sit next to grandpa."

When Xu Chenghou saw his eldest grandson coming, he immediately waved to his grandson with a bright smile and asked the child to sit in front of him.

"It's been half a year since I left. Why do I feel like I've grown taller? I seem to have lost weight.

Isn’t it bad to eat well when you go abroad? Do you have the habit of eating foreign food?”

Xu Chenghou was very curious when he saw his grandson. He never noticed fat or thin people, but this time he could also tell that his grandson was thin.

Xu Haiyuan followed his instructions and sat down next to his grandfather, looked around and asked in a low voice.

"Master, how many tables have been set up today? My dad is so arrogant, isn't he breaking any discipline?"

Xu Haiyuan was a little worried, but his father didn't want to get into trouble because of this.

"It's okay. We won't accept any gifts. We're just hosting a few banquets to make it fun."

Xu Chenghou waved his hand. He had heard from his son and daughter-in-law. It seemed that Xu Shiyan had asked the leader for permission and the superiors had given permission.

Xu Haiyuan felt relieved after hearing this.

So I sat obediently between my grandfather and my master, chatting with a group of old men.

Anyway, Xu Haiyuan would answer whatever people asked him, and he was very obedient.

"Have you decided which school to attend? Have you really decided to study medicine?" Chu Xuanhuai looked at his eldest grandson with pride.

"Actually, there is no need to be too obsessed with studying medicine, you have already obtained the qualification certificate.

With your current medical skills, you are already much better than those who graduated from medical school.

Otherwise, it would be good to major in chemistry in Qingbei. Even if you want to take over your family's business in the future, there will be no conflict."

Chu Xuanhuai was actually quite conflicted.

On the one hand, he hopes that Xu Haiyuan can inherit his mantle and pass on Chu's medical skills.

But on the other hand, seeing Xu Haiyuan show his amazing talent in chemistry, he felt that it would be a pity to only let Xu Haiyuan study medicine.

"Master, my ambition since childhood has been to study medicine, and this has never changed." Xu Haiyuan laughed when he heard this.

"Whether you win awards in chemistry or physics, this is an experience during your student days.

To put it in a less pleasant way, winning an award only means that I can do the questions.

It does not mean that I will be able to create or achieve much in the field of chemistry in the future."

"There is no causal relationship between me winning the award and my future study in medicine.

After returning to China this time, many universities in the capital have contacted me, and my attitude has never changed. I want to study medicine."

Xu Haiyuan has made clear plans for the future and will not make changes just because he won one award.
