000, a 17-year-old boy in Hunan, Wei Yongkang, was admitted to the master's and doctoral program in the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He became the youngest among the students who have been studying for the master's and doctoral program in the past years. People say he is a "child prodigy".
However, what people unexpectedly expected was that in June 2003, the Chinese Academy of Sciences suddenly decided to cancel Wei Yongkang's qualification for master's and doctoral studies and return him to his original home.
What is the reason for this?
-
1983, Wei Yongkang was born in an ordinary family in Huarong County, Hunan Province. His father Wei Bingnan was disabled in the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, and was paralyzed in bed and unable to take care of himself.
His mother Zeng Xuemei has a high school education and is an ordinary worker.
In 1970, after the launch of the first artificial satellite, , in my country, was successfully launched, Zeng Xuemei admired scientists very much, but she had no chance. Therefore, the birth of her son Wei Yongkang gave Zeng Xuemei unlimited hope, and she also wanted to train her son to become a scientist.
While Wei Yongkang was two or three months old, Zeng Xuemei taught him to read and often read Tang poems for him.
Although Wei Yongkang could not speak at that time, this early education still achieved good results.
Under Zeng Xuemei's close professor, Wei Yongkang, who was less than two years old, has known nearly 2,000 Chinese characters, and can even make short sentences and write diaries according to the rhythm of the tone.
The extraordinary ability of her son to accept Zeng Xuemei was very pleased. She immediately made a decision to send her son to school in advance.
When I first entered the school, the teachers in the school felt that Wei Yongkang was too young and could not study.
Zeng Xuemei asked the teachers to give questions to Wei Yongkang, but Wei Yongkang quickly calculated it, so the school finally accepted him.
However, due to the age difference, Wei Yongkang could hardly play with his classmates. It was still because he was too young and he could hardly finish any class at school carefully.
Because Wei Yongkang is too young, he does not adhere to classroom discipline. Sometimes the teacher teaches classes on it, and he suddenly runs under the chair to play with things.
But whenever the teacher shouts him to answer the question, he can always answer it, so the teacher has no choice but to do it.
Under the marvelous eyes, Wei Yongkang completed his primary school studies in just two years.

In order to allow Wei Yongkang to study hard, Zeng Xuemei did not let him do any work at home.
Once, Wei Yongkang was studying in the bedroom, and Zeng Xuemei was preparing supper for the whole family. When it was time to dinner, Wei Bingnan, a father who was paralyzed in bed, said to his son: Go and bring the bowls and chopsticks.
Results After hearing this, Zeng Xuemei said to her husband with a stern voice: "Yongkang 's hand holds a pen, not for these, he is not a slave."
Wei Bingnan believes that it is good for him to do some housework for a child.
Just like that, the couple started arguing.
In the end, due to Zeng Xuemei's persistence, Wei Bingnan still gave in. Since then, Wei Yongkang has the privilege of not doing housework at home.
In addition to not allowing Wei Yongkang to do housework, Zeng Xuemei didn't let him go out to play on weekends, so she let him read books at home, but she was not allowed to read books that had nothing to do with study.
Wei Yongkang has a special interest in books, especially books about history.
Once, he was reading a history book. Zeng Xuemei happened to encounter this scene. She immediately shouted: "Why do you want to read these useless books? You are not a social science person. Why do you read these books? You are not allowed to read these books that have nothing to do with learning in the future."
said, and she snatched the book and tore it off.
Wei Yongkang felt very aggrieved. He ran to the bookstore angrily, bought a lot of books on mental illness, and then opened the pages of the books and placed them in front of his mother's desk.
When my mother came back, she saw the books on the table and asked him what they meant. Wei Yongkang said, "These books are the most suitable for you to read."

11991, Wei Yongkang, who was only 8 years old, skipped several levels and entered a key middle school in the county. Because he needed someone to take care of himself in life, Zeng Xuemei proposed to the school to accompany him. The school made an exception and arranged for Zeng Xuemei to accompany him. When he was in the second year of junior high school, Wei Yongkang, who was only 9 years old, participated in the Huarong No. 1 Middle School entrance examination merit admission examination accompanied by his mother, and successfully promoted to a high school student with excellent results.
In high school, in order not to delay her son's reading, Zeng Xuemei helped Wei Yongkang squeeze the toothpaste every morning, and even she personally feeds Wei Yongkang.
Under the "careful care" of his mother, Wei Yongkang studied in high school for 3 years. For three years, his grades have always been among the best in the class.
Not only that, he also won various awards and certificates, including " Olympic Competition Chemistry Second Prize and Third Prize", "Physics Competition Second Prize", "(Hope Cup) National Mathematics Invitational Competition" and so on.
996, Wei Yongkang, who was only 13 years old, took the college entrance examination and finally achieved a good score of 606 points, ranking eighth in the grade, and was admitted to the Department of Physics, Xiangtan University, Hunan.
That year, the state-owned catering company where Zeng Xuemei worked went bankrupt. So after being laid off, Zeng Xuemei once again packed her luggage and went to Hunan Xiangtan University with her son Wei Yongkang to continue to be her son's accompanying school.
Considering that Wei Yongkang is really too young and cannot take care of himself, the school specially arranged for Zeng Xuemei to be a handyman in to subsidize the family income, and also allocated a one-bedroom and one-living room housing for their mother and son to use for free.
When asked why Zeng Xuemei insisted on accompanying her study, she explained this:
I hope Yongkang can devote himself to studying wholeheartedly and I will solve his worries.
When he grows up and gets married, he can officially leave me, and naturally he has the opportunity to exercise himself.
In 2000, Wei Yongkang received scholarships from the school and successfully graduated from university. After that, he received a letter of admission to master's and doctoral degree from the Institute of High Energy Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
both Wei Yongkang and Zeng Xuemei were very happy about this. Zeng Xuemei immediately stated that she would go to Beijing with Wei Yongkang.
But this time, Wei Yongkang refused. At that time, he was 17 years old and thought he had grown up and did not need his mother to accompany him to study, so he went north alone to study.
However, at this time he did not know that what awaited him would be a major crisis in his life.
suddenly lost the care of his mother, and Wei Yongkang was completely unable to arrange his life and study.
In life, he didn't know how to take off his clothes when he was hot, and didn't know how to add clothes when he was cold. One winter, he actually went to Tiananmen in single clothes and slippers for a walk; in addition, he never cleaned up the room, and threw dirty socks and clothes everywhere, causing the whole house to smell bad.
In his studies, he often stayed alone in the dormitory to read books, so he forgot to take exams and write graduation thesis. For this reason, he got zero points in one subject.
2003, Wei Yongkang was persuaded to return home by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, on the grounds that he had poor self-care ability and was not adapted to the knowledge structure of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. When Zeng Xuemei heard about it, she rushed to the Chinese Academy of Sciences with great enthusiasm and scolded Wei Yongkang in a scattered manner. At that time, she wanted to let him die.
The mother's words hurt Wei Yongkang's heart. Since then, the mother and son have hardly communicated much.

After bringing Wei Yongkang back to Huarong County , Zeng Xuemei felt ashamed. She arranged for Wei Yongkang to live in his aunt's house, while she stayed at home and cried every day without leaving the room. After
, she even burned some of the information she had accumulated for her son over the years and even beat Wei Yongkang.
The first time in his life was beaten by his mother, Wei Yongkang was both sad and lost, and he had the idea of running away from home.
On August 2004, he ran out of the house with more than 800 yuan he had accumulated.
In the next 39 days, he went to 16 provinces and cities, and went to Hangzhou, Ningbo , Zhoushan , Yulin and other places. Finally, when he was in Yulin, he was penniless, and the police took him back to his hometown.
Seeing her son return safely, Zeng Xuemei's heart finally fell to the ground. At the same time, she began to think about what she had done wrong before.
And after Wei Yongkang left this time, great changes have also taken place. He knew the difficulties and hardships of life. In the days after
, Zeng Xuemei began to teach Wei Yongkang to do housework frequently. Gradually, Wei Yongkang could take care of himself and even buy groceries.
Not long after, Wang Peiqun, deputy director of Huarong County People's Congress, invited Wei Yongkang to work at the People's Congress. So in the next year, Wei Yongkang got up at 7 a.m. every morning, arrived at Huarong County People's Congress on time for half a day, and went home to read books in the afternoon.
In August 2005, a letter from Shanghai made Wei Yongkang and his son very happy. A professor named Xing invited Wei Yongkang to study for his graduate school.
This time, her mother Zeng Xuemei no longer asked to accompany her to study, but she hoped to send Wei Yongkang to Shanghai, but she was firmly opposed by Wei Yongkang.
In desperation, Zeng Xuemei secretly got on the train, curled up in the train toilet, and secretly escorted her son.
But when the train arrived at Suzhou , Zeng Xuemei discovered that Wei Yongkang had already got off the train halfway and changed to other trains to Shanghai alone.
After arriving in Shanghai, Wei Yongkang not only gained growth, but also gained a love.
From childhood to adulthood, Zeng Xuemei was determined to train Wei Yongkang to become a scientist, so she has always instilled into Wei Yongkang the idea that "beauties are poisonous snakes and will pull you into the water."
and even though Wei Yongkang grew up so old, he never chatted with the girl seriously.
But after arriving in Shanghai, Wei Yongkang fell in love with a girl at first sight.
The girl's name is Fu Bi. During the summer vacation of 2005, she went to Shanghai to play with her sister. The place where her sister lives was very close to where Wei Yongkang lived, so the two met.
After meeting, Wei Yongkang pursued Fu Bi fiercely, but Fu Bi never replied.
It was not until two years later that after Fu Bi graduated from university, he went to work in Shenzhen. Wei Yongkang immediately quit his job in Shanghai and followed him all the way to Shenzhen, which won Fu Bi's heart.
On National Day in 2008, the two entered the palace of marriage hand in hand. A few years after marriage, Fu Bi gave birth to a man and a woman for Wei Yongkang, and Wei Yongkang also faded out of the public eye and lived an ordinary life with Fu Bi.
Until November 17, 2021, Fu Bi posted an obituary on a forum with her personal account, and we only learned that Cai Yongkang, who was only 38 years old, died of illness.
Wei Yongkang was born on June 17, 1983 in Huarong County, Hunan Province. He died of sudden illness on November 9, 2021. My dear husband received enthusiastic care and selfless help from many relatives, classmates, friends, netizens and people from all walks of life. Here, our whole family expressed our deep gratitude!
This is scheduled to be funeral in Longhui, Hunan on the morning of November 18, 2021, and his beloved wife Fu Bi cried.
is written at the end:
As a mother, Zeng Xuemei puts her good wishes on her children and hopes that Wei Yongkang can change this status quo of the family. I think it is understandable;
But she asked Wei Yongkang to grow up completely according to her own plan and tied him around with the "umbilical cord", which also led to Wei Yongkang being unable to take care of himself and being persuaded to leave by the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Therefore, as parents, we should not interfere with our children too much, and we should learn to let our children act according to their own wishes. Only in this way can children realize what their life is like and be able to spread their wings and fly high.
What do you think?
