Sitting on the platform were the group leader of the second-year junior high school students and the homeroom teachers of each class.
"Dear parents, this is the last time we will hold a parent-teacher meeting for all students. The main purpose is to talk to you about the choices that students are facing now."
In our second year of junior high school, there are fewer than two hundred students. More than one hundred of them are studying hard with the goal of getting into high school, vocational school, or university. The rest are thinking of getting their junior high school diplomas so they can go home and take over the family business or find their own way in the world.
Let's start with those who don't plan to continue their education. Have parents considered that the government now supports university entrance exams, provides subsidies, and guarantees job placement after graduation? So how many job opportunities are left for children who don't go to school?
As parents, have you thought carefully about what will happen to your children in the future? At fifteen or sixteen, can they really do a good job? If they don't work and wander around in society, won't other problems arise?
Parents preparing for school entrance exams, have you carefully reviewed your children's grades to have a clear understanding of their abilities? Today, the report cards have been distributed. Let's see if your child has a good chance of getting into their desired school in the next month or so.
Children are the future of the country and the hope of every family. We hope that parents can pay more attention and work with the school to improve their children's learning.
Regardless of which path they choose in the future, as their parents, please show them as much care and concern as possible before they reach adulthood.
After the grade-level group leader finished speaking, the homeroom teachers of each class talked about the current situation, without naming names, but just mentioning some phenomena.
"Alright, that concludes today's class meeting. If any class has any questions, please communicate with your child's homeroom teacher."
Gu Ye didn't expect the first parent-teacher conference to end so quickly. He felt that his two children were fine and there was no need to communicate with the teacher separately.
The homeroom teacher of student number 69 didn't really plan to say anything to her parents. There were a few other students whose grades weren't ideal and needed to be communicated with.
Gu Ye left the classroom and headed towards the library to see where his wife worked.
"Honey, I've finished my parent-teacher meeting."
"So fast? What did the teacher say?"
Bonnie was surprised to see Gu Ye here, so she quickly invited him in.
"They didn't say anything, just some phenomena, nothing much to do with our child. The homeroom teacher was talking to some parents, and I came out since I didn't have anything else to do. I wanted to see where you work."
Gu Ye looked at the room full of books; the environment was quite nice.
"Are you going back to the army later? If not, just buy groceries and cook. The kids want braised pork."
"I'm not going back. I'm going to the market to buy groceries in a bit."
Gu Ye didn't stay long. This was where Bao Ni worked, and he felt relieved after seeing it.
"Okay, make a cold dish. I want to eat your shredded cabbage salad."
"Okay, I'm leaving."
Gu Ye left to buy groceries at a nearby market and then went home to cook.
"Bonnie, your man's aura is something else!"
Teacher Ma watched Gu Ye's departing figure and thought, "He's really different."
"It's alright, the clothes are the main plus."
Bonnie also thought her brother looked incredibly handsome in that outfit, but he shouldn't be too flashy; he should keep a low profile.
"No, there are many soldiers in our army, but few have the temperament of your man."
As Teacher Ma spoke earnestly, Bonnie's smile grew wider and wider.
Gu Ye went to buy groceries, and Commander Xu, who had been called away by the teacher, walked out of the classroom of Class 3, Grade 8 with a gloomy expression.
The report card in my hand felt even heavier. According to my son's homeroom teacher, if Xu Yi doesn't work hard in the next month or so, his chances of getting into the school's high school are slim.
The military academy there has a relatively high level of education, and students from several surrounding schools compete to get in. If you don't get into the high school affiliated with the military academy, your chances of getting into university are even lower.
"Xiao Xu, why do you look so listless?"
At the entrance of the family compound, Chief of Staff Liang, who had just finished get off work, called out to Brigade Commander Xu.
"Chief of Staff Liang, sigh, I just went to Xu Yi's parent-teacher conference. His grades aren't very good, and I'm worried about him!"
"By the way, your son Xu Yi is in the second year of junior high school and will be taking the high school entrance exam soon. Now that the college entrance exam has been reinstated, he really needs to focus on his studies. If he doesn't go to university, the gap in his future will be significant. Let me see their report cards; how are they doing?"
Brigade Commander Xu handed over the report card, and Chief of Staff Liang looked it over from top to bottom. Gu Yun Chu's grades immediately caught his eye. He remembered that the two younger children at home had mentioned it just a few days ago.
"Is this Gu Yun Chu from Commander Gu's family? Her grades are really impressive!"
Chief of Staff Liang was quite surprised to see that Gu Yun Chu's scores in all subjects were close to perfect.
"Yes, their two kids are in third and fifth place in their grade, it's really enviable."
Commander Xu recalled Commander Gu's ever-present smile, and realized that there was no comparison!
"This is truly a man of both literary and martial talents. This Gu Yun Chu defeated both your Xu Yi and my Liang Qi. I never expected that she would not only be strong in martial arts but also have excellent academic performance."
Chief of Staff Liang was also envious; his son was doing well, but his daughter's grades weren't so good.
"Who said the Gu family's daughter defeated both my Xu Yi and your Liang Qi? When did this happen?"
Commander Xu really didn't know; Xu Yi hadn't mentioned it when he got home. He was afraid of losing face.
"About what happened a few days ago, my Liangqi said that even Ma Zijun might not be able to beat Gu Yunchu. I don't know how Commander Gu teaches his children; they're so outstanding, it's truly enviable!"
Chief of Staff Liang returned the report card to Brigade Commander Xu and went home with a sigh.
Commander Xu was even more heartbroken now. His son was really something; he didn't say a word about it when he got home, probably because he was afraid of losing face.
