Seeing that Tian Shenggen had behaved well, Li Dahua loosened her grip and said to Tian Tian with a smile, "Tian Tian! Help me teach Shenggen well. I don't want him to get high grades. Just let him get into the third grade. I don't ask for more."
"I'll try my best!" Tian Tian said with a smile, but she was very curious in her heart. To be honest, the difficulty of studying nowadays is not very great, and everyone is more tolerant towards students. They will not pursue how many points you get in the exam, as long as you can pass it.
Except for those with extremely poor academic performance, there are very few people who repeat a grade in the lower grades. I don't know how many points Tian Shenggen got in the exam to have to be repeated in the second grade for three consecutive years.
After waiting for Li Dahua to leave, Tian Shenggen rubbed his ears and followed Tian Tian to her home reluctantly.
"Fourth grandma! Third aunt, young aunt!" Although Tian Shenggen was a little naughty, he was still very polite when meeting elders, and greeted Old Lady Tian and Lin Meiyu one by one.
"You're here!" Lin Meiyu greeted with a smile, "Come in and learn from your brothers and sisters. If you need anything, just tell Auntie."
Tian Shenggen nodded to them and followed Tian Tian into the house. When he was a child, he often followed Tian Ligang to Tian Tian's house. In addition, the layout of the houses in their team was similar, so he was quite familiar with Tian Tian's house.
Tian Tian looked at Tian Shenggen who was standing next to her with a stern face. She was really curious and asked in a low voice: "Shenggen, how many points did you get in the final exam this time?"
Tian Shenggen's already stinky face turned even stinker. He said two words stiffly, "Twenty points!"
"What?" Tian Tian couldn't believe her ears. "Twenty points for math?"
Their exams now actually only include Chinese and math, and the total score added up to 200. It's impossible that the total score of the two is only 20 points, right?
Tian Shenggen said stiffly: "Two subjects!"
Tian Tian was dumbfounded. The questions nowadays were extremely simple. For example, the Chinese language questions were basically words from quotations. Even people who couldn't read could say a lot of words and could get dozens of points with their eyes closed.
If she got 20 points in math, she could still understand it. She still remembered that when she first entered high school, she only scored 30 or 40 points in her first math test. Later, when the classes were divided into science and arts classes, the new class teacher implemented the tactic of solving a large number of questions for them. Only then did her math scores improve.
"Brother Shenggen! You're here!" Tian Zhuo greeted Tian Shenggen enthusiastically when he saw him coming.
"Hmph!" Tian Baobao snorted disdainfully and turned his head away from Tian Shenggen. The two of them had always been at odds with each other and had fought many times outside.
Tian Shenggen ignored Tian Baobao, nodded coldly at Tian Zhuo, took off his shoes and climbed onto the kang.
"Today we are going to learn two more difficult characters." Tian Tian wrote a "撇" and a "平" on the newspaper and marked the pinyin on them. "Can you read these two characters according to the pinyin, and then use the pinyin in the Xinhua Dictionary to find two phrases?"
Tian Tian pushed the newspaper in front of them. During this period, she had been teaching Tian Baobao and Tian Zhuo simpler words with fewer strokes, or teaching them pinyin and numbers, or letting them read the Chinese textbook by looking up the dictionary. She seldom taught them words with more strokes like "笔".
If she hadn't thought that Tian Shenggen was already in his second year and should learn something more difficult, she would still take Tian Baobao and Tian Zhuo to study and play at the same time.
Tian Shenggen glanced at the two words written on the newspaper and snorted disdainfully, "It's such a simple word, but you still need to learn it. Isn't it just a left stroke and a right stroke? It's like a turtle. What's so difficult about it that you need to learn it now?"
Tian Zhuo immediately looked at Tian Shenggen in admiration, "Brother Shenggen you are so awesome!"
Tian Shenggen looked at Tian Zhuo with an inexperienced look in his eyes, "What's so great about knowing just two words? You can't make a living or earn money with it!"
When Tian Tian saw that Tian Shenggen knew these two words, she asked Tian Baobao and Tian Zhuo to look them up in the dictionary themselves, and she took out the math problem and handed it to Tian Shenggen.
Tian Shenggen looked down, scribbled a few times on the newspaper with a pen, and told Tian Tian the answer.
When Tian Tian heard this, she did some calculations in her mind and found that the answer Tian Shenggen gave her was completely correct.
"No!" Tian Tian was a little puzzled. The questions given to Tian Shenggen were actually some questions at the back of the textbook. They were quite difficult for a second-grade student. Since Tian Shenggen finished them so easily, it meant that he should be a good student. How could he get such a low score in the exam? He has stayed in the second grade for three years and is about to stay in the fourth year. This is too dreamy.
"If you can answer this question, how come you only get such a low score in the exam?" Tian Tian asked puzzled.
Tian Shenggen sighed, feeling like he was the only one sober while everyone else was drunk. "Sister Tiantian, what's the point of going to school? My dad and my uncle Lisong have both been educated, but now they are still in the brigade."
