On his way back to school, Sun Zhengguo checked his watch and realized that classes hadn't even started yet. He couldn't help but admire Ding Qizhen for arranging things so perfectly and saving so much time.
Sun Zhengguo then went to the office to cancel his leave with the homeroom teacher. Teacher Zhao was relieved to see Sun Zhengguo return early and asked with concern, "How is your uncle Yi Zhonghai?"
"Thank you, teacher. My uncle saw me and is feeling much better now."
The two didn't chat, and Sun Zhengguo rushed off to class.
Back in the classroom, Sun Zhengguo saw the countdown to the college entrance exam hanging on the wall, which was already below one hundred. He decided to take a break for a while and wait until after the exam.
Time always flies when you're studying. Before you know it, it's time to go home. On his way home, Sun Zhengguo even ran into Yi Zhonghai.
It seems this person can't be ignored! We only mentioned him twice today, and now we've run into each other. If Teacher Zhao were to see this, with Sun Zhengguo's old man still alive and kicking, I wonder what he would think.
Sun Zhengguo didn't linger, only saying, "The old man is off work," before turning and leaving.
Watching Sun Zhengguo's departing figure, Yi Zhonghai felt a little annoyed. "That little brat from the Sun family is so rude. He saw me, an old man from the courtyard, and didn't even offer me a ride. I don't know how Sun Dajiang raised him."
Back home, Sun Zhengguo started doing his homework. When his mother, Lin Wencui, came home and saw her children studying, she didn't say a word and went straight to cook.
After dinner, without the adults saying anything, the group went back to their studies. Sun Dajiang and his wife exchanged a glance and couldn't help but smile happily.
Time flies, and the weather gradually gets warmer, indicating that spring has passed and summer has arrived.
"Brother, this weather is so hot! I'm sweating buckets just sitting here. I don't know how you can sit still. Why don't you go out for a walk?"
Holding a palm-leaf fan and covered in sweat, Sun Zheng'an sat on the edge of the bed, rambling on and on.
"If you're feeling hot, why don't you go for a walk? I'll finish these questions first, then I'll go out for a stroll."
With only a few days left before the exam, Sun Zhengguo wanted to practice more questions, so he declined his younger brother's offer.
"Okay! I won't stay with you then. I'm going out to cool off."
After his younger brother left, Sun Zhengguo buried himself in his troublesome exercises.
Half an hour later, Sun Zhengguo got up and rubbed his temples, only to find that his back was soaked with sweat. He then fetched a basin of cold water and started wiping himself down. After he finished, he looked at his watch and it was only a little past 8 o'clock.
If it were winter, I would already be in bed by now, but it's summer now, and it's too hot to sleep.
"Sigh! Let's go out for a walk! It's so hot today."
Having made up his mind, Sun Zhengguo, imitating his younger brother, took a palm-leaf fan and walked outside while fanning himself.
Upon arriving at the compound, Sun Zhengguo heard a commotion coming from the entrance of the courtyard. He guessed that people who couldn't sleep were cooling off at the entrance, so he went over to investigate.
"Let me tell you, and you might not believe me, but our eldest son is praised by his teachers. He's definitely going to get into a vocational school this time. Once he graduates, hey! He'll be an official, haha..."
"Second Uncle, you'd better just wait and enjoy your good fortune! That's why you call yourself Second Uncle! You're capable, a senior worker in the factory, and your son is capable too; he'll become an official as soon as he graduates."
Before Sun Zhengguo even arrived, he heard Liu Haizhong praising his son, with a professional straight man standing beside him.
Following the sound to the door, Sun Zhengguo saw that at least half of the people in the entire compound were there; it was quite lively.
Seeing the old guys bragging and joking around, Sun Zhengguo didn't go over to them, but instead went to the young people's side.
Xu Damao was enjoying the cool air with his younger sister when he saw Sun Zhengguo arrive, and he jokingly said something.
"Oh my! Our college student is here! We were just talking about you, and here you are."
Seeing that Xu Damao was teasing him, Sun Zhengguo took the opportunity to ask.
"Oh! Come, come, old classmate, tell me, what have you been talking about me about? Let me have a laugh!"
Xu Damao was dumbfounded. I was just being polite, why did they take it seriously? But who is Xu Damao? He can just spout nonsense.
"Hey! We're all waiting to see when you pass the exam with flying colors and become the first college student in our courtyard. How about it? College student, you won't disappoint, will you!"
Xu Damao countered, "If you pass the exam, it proves that I, Xu Damao, have a keen eye for talent. If you fail, well, you'll be making a fool of yourself!"
Seeing Xu Damao's smug look, Sun Zhengguo didn't indulge him.
"What a joke! How could I possibly disappoint you? You, Xu Damao, just wait to kneel down and lead the horse!"
Although Xu Damao didn't know what kneeling and leading the horse meant, he knew it certainly wasn't a compliment, and continued to argue stubbornly.
"You, how can you be so ungrateful? I'm not talking to you anymore, hmph!"
After saying that, he took his younger sister, Xu Xiaoling, and went home.
"Hahaha……."
Seeing that Xu Damao had left in anger, Yan Jiecheng and the others laughed heartily.
After Xu Damao left, Sun Zhengguo started chatting with a few young people nearby. They talked until 10 p.m., and only went home to sleep when Lin Wencui came to urge him.
The next day, Sun Zhengguo changed his usual lazy habits and arrived at school early in the morning to prepare for the final sprint for the college entrance examination.
When Sun Zhengguo entered the classroom, he found it already full of people. Looking at the countdown board on the wall, there were only 3 days left. No wonder all the students had come. Sun Zhengguo didn't have time to look around and sat down to start studying.
With the college entrance examination approaching, students are nervous, and so are teachers. Sure enough, the homeroom teacher, Mr. Zhao, arrived at school early in the morning and is currently watching from outside the classroom window. Of course, the result is quite satisfactory.
In the first class of the morning, Teacher Zhao walked into the classroom empty-handed. Looking at the dozens of students below the stage, Teacher Zhao began to speak.
"Students! There are only 3 days left until the college entrance examination. I have seen your hard work, and I hope you can continue to persevere. Even if you don't get in in the end, at least I have tried my best and will not regret it! Good luck!"
"Clap clap clap..."
A round of applause erupted from the audience.
Teacher Zhao pressed down on his hands, signaling the students to stop, and continued speaking.
"Alright, we've covered the material we were supposed to teach. Starting from this lesson, we will no longer lecture. Instead, students will ask questions themselves, and we will address any areas they don't understand until they have grasped the concepts. Now, please raise your hands to speak."
As soon as Teacher Zhao finished speaking, a student raised his hand to ask a question.
"Okay, Chen Lijun, what's your question?"
When Chen Lijun heard the teacher call his name, he stood up and spoke.
"Teacher Zhao, I've never been able to solve this system of equations. Could you explain it to me?"
"Okay, I've actually explained this problem many times before, so let's talk about it again today. Let's talk about the coefficients c, b, and d of this problem..."
Afterwards, the students kept asking questions, and Teacher Zhao patiently explained them, which brought the atmosphere to a climax.
All the students in the senior year of high school have entered the final sprint.
Strive for your future!
