Chapter 109
Many students from other township high schools do not plan to take competition courses, nor have they attended competition classes, even though they have always known that Wuzhong and No. 1 High School are key high schools among key high schools. However, those who were selected to take the exam are all among the top ten students in their respective high school grades, and the top ten students in their respective subjects. They are also the treasures of their teachers in their respective high schools.
Now, after receiving the competition test papers, these favorites all looked pale.
Looking at the people from No. 1 Middle School and Wuzhong, especially the people from Wuzhong, they actually had a relaxed smile on their faces and called out to Song Peifeng: "Peifeng, let's go out for lunch?"
What they mean by eating out is actually the small restaurant outside their school gate. Not only is the food cheap and good, but the food is also clean because the food is cooked right outside the door and everyone can watch the whole cooking process. If it is not clean, no one will continue to eat there.
They still have the mind to eat?
They went to look at the people from No. 1 Middle School. How did they know they were from No. 1 Middle School? Because they were poor students, most of them wore their respective school's summer uniforms. The summer uniform of No. 1 Middle School was sky blue with white tops and sky blue trousers underneath.
When it was originally designed, the summer uniform for girls in No. 1 Middle School was also going to be skirts, but this was rejected by Director Zhang of the No. 1 Middle School, and all students, regardless of gender, were given pants.
Girls in No. 1 Middle School are not allowed to wear skirts at school.
After the students from No. 1 Middle School left, the students from Wu Middle School looked at their backs as they returned to No. 1 Middle School. Suddenly, someone curiously asked the students around him, "Do you think Jiang Ning from No. 1 Middle School likes Pei Feng?"
The student being asked was stunned for a moment: "How should I know this?"
"Didn't you see it? That day in the restaurant, she smiled at Song Peifeng. There were so many of us sitting there, but she only greeted Song Peifeng. Today, there were so many people in the class, but she saw Song Peifeng at a glance and smiled at him."
The student who was asked blinked and said, "Among the group of people, not only did she see Song Peifeng at first sight, I also saw Song Peifeng at first sight!" His eyes suddenly became strange, and he moved aside to an arm's length away from the student who was talking: "Damn, you don't think I like Song Peifeng too, do you?"
As soon as he shouted loudly, everyone around him looked over, with an expression of having just eaten something big.
What? Is there any boy in Wuzhong who likes Song Peifeng?
When Jiang Ning came to Wuzhong for her last exam in the afternoon, a girl she didn't know poked her arm with the tip of a pen and shared with her with a look of astonishment: "Hey, did you know that there is a boy in Wuzhong who likes Song Peifeng?"
Jiang Ning was shocked. No, how did you know such a secret thing?
The surprise in Jiang Ning's eyes was too obvious. The girl said, "They said it themselves. Many people heard it."
Jiang Ning was puzzled for a moment. She had never heard of Song Peifeng having such a work style problem in her previous life.
She had worked in the Discipline Inspection Commission for a period of time in her previous life, and that period completely refreshed her understanding of the officialdom. The darkness of the officialdom was far from being as pure and flawless as shown in novels, TV dramas and movies.
For example, the plot shown in "Storm" is child's play compared to reality, because the plots that can be broadcast have all passed the review. The real world is far more exaggerated than you can imagine. They know many things in their hearts, but they cannot say them because of tacit understanding, insufficient evidence, and other reasons.
But even so, she didn't hear any problems with Song Peifeng.
There is no problem with money, no problem with women, could it be...
She couldn't help but turn her head to look at Song Peifeng, and Song Peifeng happened to look up at her.
People around: ... The juice source is from the Koukou group, and there is no way to sort out more juice sources in the 52nd issue. You can come to consult
It has begun, it has begun, the ultimate showdown between No. 1 Middle School and Wuzhong!
They seemed to see the lightning and thunder between the two people's eyes.
The girl who poked Jiang Ning's arm sat next to her. She had met Jiang Ning before in a math competition, but she had never spoken to her.
She was the only girl in their high school who attended the preliminary examination for the competition. At noon, she heard a lot of gossip about Wuzhong but had no one to share it with. She told Jiang Ning about it because she had seen her on the podium during the Qingming Festival.
In the past, Jiang Ning had never looked at Song Peifeng carefully. His impression of him was still that of a young talent who was being specially trained by his superiors in his previous life and had a promising future.
It was not until this moment, when she saw the young version of Song Peifeng, that she realized that he was also very handsome.
The first thought in her mind was that it was normal for a boy to like him.
It's no wonder that she had such thoughts in her mind. It was because when she was in JW in her previous life, she saw so many weirdos in the officialdom that they refreshed her worldview. There were leaders who were promiscuous with both men and women, there were leaders who treated their units as harems, and there were female leaders who had twenty or thirty lovers. There was nothing you couldn't imagine that you wouldn't encounter in reality.
After seeing so much, if Song Peifeng really had some unknown hobbies, she could fully understand it and would not be surprised.
Of course, there is no need to think that all crows are black just because you have seen too much darkness. Throughout history, in every dynasty, there have been darkness, but there have also been many people who care about the interests of the world and justice and are dedicated to serving the people. There are people who stick to their principles like her, and naturally there will be many more who are still sticking to their principles. She is just an ordinary one among them.
In any place, in any world, where there is light, there is shadow.
Her leader once called them heroes of the dark night.
The boy at noon was almost feeling awkward because someone was always watching them.
I was originally wondering whether Jiang Ning liked a boy named Song Peifeng from their school, but now I was speechless because of my classmate's train of thought.
In other words, the people in No. 1 Middle School turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside, and Jiang Ning didn't like gossiping, so the matter didn't spread in No. 1 Middle School.
But in other high schools, this gossip spread like wildfire and spread to all the high schools below.
Although it was summer vacation, the students who were going from their second year to their third year of high school were still in school. Their vacation lasted only about half a month during the double harvest season. Even in the township high schools, there were still students in the key classes who stayed in school to continue their classes. So, the gossip spread directly.
There are really too many hot topics in this gossip. The first one is about Wu Zhong. Wu Zhong, this is Wu Zhong’s gossip. The second is the gossip about Song Peifeng, the best and most handsome boy in Wu Zhong. Finally, there is the gossip about two men.
This caused more heated discussion than Song Peifeng's premature love affair with a girl.
This piece of gossip can be said to have gathered all the hot spots and discussions.
It's not so bad in Wucheng because it's summer vacation and there aren't many people in the school. Those who are going from sophomore to senior year of high school are not in the same grade as them. Wuzhong, No. 1 Middle School, and No. 2 Middle School usually have strict control over grades and everyone focuses on studying. They rarely spread gossip. But it's different in the township high schools below. Their schools gather all kinds of students with good and bad grades from the villages below. Their qualities are mixed and they are particularly fond of this kind of gossip.
Basically, once one person knows about it, almost everyone in the school will hear about it.
If they were someone they didn't know or had never met, they might not have much interest, but who could blame them all for having witnessed Song Peifeng's charisma in his Qingming Festival speech this year?
At first, some people didn't believe it, but when everyone was telling the story with such detail that Song Peifeng and his friends didn't even know about it, everyone in the school knew about Song Peifeng's gay incident in Wuzhong.
When the news reached Director Wang Suoping of Wuzhong, he was so angry that he almost yelled, "Absurd! This is absolutely ridiculous! Which school spread this rumor? This incident is too bad! Such incidents of spreading rumors about others must be dealt with vigorously!"
But he was still worried, so he went to ask a few boys in the competition class what was going on. After finding out what was going on, he severely criticized them, especially the boy who asked gossip: "You don't focus on studying hard, but only pay attention to these crooked ways!"
It was not until this moment that Song Peifeng realized that such gossip had actually happened outside when he was unaware, and his face couldn't help but darken.
The boy who had asked Jiang Ning if she liked Song Peifeng came to apologize to Song Peifeng very embarrassedly, "I really didn't know that the news would spread like this. At that time, I just felt that..."
He really just asked his classmates out of curiosity. After all, who doesn’t have curiosity? Who knew that his classmate's train of thought was so unique and different from others? It would have been fine if it was just different, but he even shouted it out in public.
Everyone was listening without any beginning or end, and suddenly heard a boy shouting something like "I like Song Peifeng". Everyone automatically ignored the words "You wouldn't think so" and remembered the words "I like Song Peifeng" that the boy shouted. That's how the misunderstanding spread.
Of course, there are people who maliciously spread such gossip and rumors, hoping to see some fun in Wuzhong.
The other boy who was being questioned also blushed after learning about such gossip, and even felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Song Peifeng.
Song Peifeng also clarified with the boy who started gossiping and Director Wang in a very serious manner: "I haven't said a word to the girl named Jiang Ning from No. 1 Middle School that you mentioned so far. Please don't speculate about others without reason. This will be very troublesome to me, her, and others. We are all students, and our current goal should be to study first, not other things!"
Director Wang was also very angry and said, "Our Wuzhong and their No. 1 Middle School usually have their gates closed, and students can't even go out. If it weren't for the competition exam, they wouldn't even have seen each other once. Even so, you can still make some groundless speculations. I think you are too idle. Let's see how many points you can get in this competition!"
High school teachers of this era are very strict about preventing students from falling in love prematurely and will never allow it. Just from the fact that boys and girls walk on separate staircases in No. 1 Middle School and that boys and girls are divided into groups for classes, you can tell how strictly both schools prevent this.
This is not only about hoping that students will focus all their energy on studying and improving the school's admission rate, but also because high school students are at the peak of their physical development and are most likely to develop vague feelings for each other as they spend every day together in school. If it's just a secret crush that doesn't affect their studies, it's fine. But if something really happens and something bad happens, then their entire high school's reputation of several decades will be ruined.
If something really happens, which parent would dare to send their children to their high school? And if something happens, it will be a huge blow to the girl's reputation.
Therefore, Director Wang took this matter very seriously and said to the boy who spread the gossip in the first place: "I can not give you a demerit for this matter for now. A demerit will be recorded in your file, and it may affect you for the rest of your life. But the impact of this matter is too bad, and it must be reported and criticized! You should also write a 3,000-word self-criticism and hand it in. If this matter is not handled well, you will definitely be punished in the future!"
The boy was so frightened that his face turned pale.
Whether it is a public criticism or a record of demerits, it is not something a teenager of his age can bear, especially a student with good grades like him. Moreover, with the punishment of record of demerits or public criticism, he probably won't get his scholarship this year.
He had not expected that his momentary curiosity and gossip would cause such a great impact. He did not dare to complain because Director Wang said that his disciplinary action had not yet been recorded in his file, but was just a criticism notice within the school. If it were really recorded in his file, it would affect his future studies and civil service examinations, and his whole life would be ruined.
At this time, many people, including college students, still have the idea that they will be guaranteed a job after graduation.
The job assignment means a stable job. But once a demerit is recorded in the file, he may lose the stable job, and he may not even be able to go to university.
Such an impact is simply not something he can bear at the moment. That is why, although Director Wang was so angry, he did not say that he would punish him. But at the same time, he could not let him off lightly, so he announced that he would criticize him in a school-wide notice.
Song Peifeng, who is always good-tempered and smiling, handled the matter very seriously this time. He had no intention of pleading for his classmates. Instead, he was very angry.
He must show the outside world that this bottom line cannot be crossed.
Song Peifeng was so angry, and coupled with the severe punishment given to that classmate, the entire competition class fell silent for a moment. No one dared to gossip anymore, and everyone focused on their studies.
Wuzhong has a strict teaching and academic style, and they don't like to talk about these gossips. Occasionally, some girls peek at Song Peifeng, and when they know about it, they will push the people around them and let them see for themselves. They know it in their hearts, but they won't say it out loud.
After the evil wind in Wuzhong was suppressed, Director Wang went to No. 1 Middle School to talk to Director Zhang about the incident and complained, "This incident was originally caused by students from your school. If she hadn't been smiling at Song Peifeng from our school, our students wouldn't have had this misunderstanding and were curious about their relationship!"
Director Zhang was furious when he heard this: "You're talking nonsense!"
"Why don't you fix your school's atmosphere? Why do you blame our students? This has nothing to do with our students! Our students are cheerful and lively, and they are in high spirits. Smiling at your students is polite and graceful!"
Director Zhang defended the students of his school without any ambiguity: "I know the students of our school! From the first time I saw this student, she liked to laugh. If I saw her not laughing, then there was a problem. What does this show? It shows that the students of our school have a good mental outlook! You can't clean up the bad habits of the students in your own school, but you blame our students. I don't think you have the nerve to do that!"
Director Zhang of No. 1 Middle School is not tall, while Director Wang of Wu Middle School is about 1.8 meters tall, with a round head and a thin body. When Director Zhang slammed the table and scolded him, he wished he could jump onto the table and spray him in the face!
Director Wang also knew that this matter could not be blamed on the students of No. 1 Middle School. The reason why he said that was because he was afraid that the girl from No. 1 Middle School really liked Song Peifeng from their school and would come to remind Director Zhang and shirk his responsibility. It was really their school's students gossiping about others and spreading such rumors, which was too unpleasant to hear, and made him feel embarrassed in front of Director Zhang.
Director Wang is only fifty years old, while Director Zhang has reached retirement age this year. In fact, he is his predecessor, but No. 1 Middle School and Wu Zhong have been fighting for many years. No matter whether it is school examinations or meetings at the Education Bureau, they always compete with each other every time they meet. They have become accustomed to it over the years.
Director Zhang originally wanted to find Jiang Ning to ask about the situation, so he walked to the competition class, stood outside the window, and watched the students inside attending class.
There were no more than twenty people in the class. Jiang Ning sat in the middle, looking at the teacher intently with a serious expression.
Perhaps she felt the gaze of the person outside the window, but she turned to look at Director Zhang. When she saw it was him, a faint smile appeared on her face, and she turned back to continue listening to the teacher.
Director Zhang immediately stood up.
Yes, yes, that’s right. Is it wrong for students in their school to love laughing? Who has a stern face all day long? Even a polite smile can lead to such a mess. It's obvious that the school spirit of Wuzhong has been ruined.
Director Zhang, a small man, went back with a high and proud look on his face.
He is already of retirement age. Logically, he should have retired in the first half of this year. However, this class of senior high school has not graduated yet, so he cannot let go and continues to work as the director of the Academic Affairs Office at the school. In fact, the work of the Academic Affairs Office has basically been handed over to Director Xiao Wang.
There is no problem with Director Wang's ability. He is almost 40 years old, which is the prime of his life. His only bad point is that he is too gentle.
When he meets someone like Wu Zhong and Wang Suoping, he is worried that he cannot win the argument with Wu Zhong, so he has to come.
In her previous life, when Jiang Ning entered No. 1 Middle School, Director Zhang had already retired. She knew Director Zhang because he would occasionally come to the school to visit and sit in the office, but due to his poor health, he stayed in the hospital most of the time. Occasionally, she saw him and heard people say that he was the director of the school's Academic Affairs Office. Only then did she know that this little old man who was always smiling and amiable when greeting and talking to students was once the director of the school.
While Jiang Ning and the others were in class, the teachers at No. 1 Middle School Wuzhong had already graded the results of the three preliminaries in the county.
Just as many teachers had expected, Wuzhong was basically far ahead of the others, and it completely crushed many township high schools that were just there to keep up the pace.
But the teachers at Wuzhong remained silent after seeing the results from the preliminary rounds.
They knew that Jiang Ning had very good grades in school exams. After all, he had once scored one point higher than Song Peifeng from their school.
But they didn’t know that Jiang Ning’s performance in the competition was also so good.
