Chapter 121



School starts.

Because of her teaching duties, even though Zhou Xiu found time to write test papers every day, she only finished 87 out of 100 papers. After returning to City C, Zhou Xiu stayed at home comfortably enjoying the air conditioning and spent two days finishing Lao Wang's test paper.

System: [Ding——Complete Mr. Wang’s math competition simulation test with an accuracy rate of 73%, and receive a reward of 300 RMB. 】

The reward returned to its original standard, and Zhou Xiu curled her lips.

On the last day before school started, Zhou Xiu donated the 56,000 RMB she received as a reward for writing 100 test papers to a project to support out-of-school children in mountainous areas.

On the first day of school registration, there were many new faces in the school.

The military training for the new batch of first-year high school students has just ended, and many younger students wearing camouflage uniforms can be seen everywhere on campus.

As soon as Zhou Xiu walked into the campus, he saw the enrollment sign standing at the school gate.

The image ambassador on the enrollment sign was changed from Lu Lingshan to Xu Qing. In the photo, Xu Qing is wearing Yude’s school uniform, smiling and holding a sign that reads “Waiting for you at Yude”, with a gentle and elegant temperament.

When the students in Class 24 saw the enrollment board, they started to complain:

"Isn't this our monitor? He looks pretty photogenic."

The boy said regretfully, "I thought I would see Xiuxiu...at worst, Sister Xu will do."

"Hahaha, Sister Xu is not suitable. She is a poor student." said a boy.

As soon as he finished speaking, Huaxu twisted his ear and said, "Are you itchy?"

Lan Xin tapped the enrollment sign and said, "This year's class monitor's WeChat account is going to explode. How many girls will come to him just for his face?"

Everyone noticed Zhou Xiu and greeted her good morning.

Du Feiyang showed his white teeth and said with a smile: "Xiu Shen, long time no see, I miss you so much!"

The other poor students gnashed their teeth. Didn’t they just separate two days ago? Du Feiyang posted updates every day throughout August, as if he wanted to flood his circle of friends with them. His cocky look made people want to smash his head.

"Pretend, keep pretending. Don't think I don't know that you guys went out to play together during the summer vacation!"

After everyone finished laughing and complaining, they went upstairs back to the classroom together.

The freshmen looked at this group of students who were all wearing the school uniforms they had modified. The girls were wearing well-cut waist-hugging short skirts, revealing a pair of long legs. The boy threw away his tie and unbuttoned two buttons, looking rebellious and unruly.

After they left, the freshmen sighed silently, "They are so cool! Isn't the density of good-looking people in our Dayude too high?"

Not only is the ambassador good-looking, but the group of passers-by who just glanced at her were also fascinated by her. It was truly a feast for those who love beauty.

"Tsk—just a bunch of bad students."

The senior students of Yude explained to them, "That is Class 24 of Senior 3. It is the most beautiful class in the whole school."

As for...bad students?

They said seriously, "They are not bad students. The one in there just now is Xiu Shen from Yu De. Do you know Xiu Shen?"

Zhou Xiu completed the registration procedures, received the books, and then held a class meeting. The theme of the class meeting was summer social practice.

The students shared their social practices during the summer vacation one by one. The forms were varied and very exciting. At the end of the speech, the students' eyes turned to Zhou Xiu, Xu Qing, Hua Xu and other people who went to the mountainous areas to teach.

Du Feiyang went up to the podium with his mobile phone and played a video to show their social practice assignments.

The VCR was edited by Xu Qing. The familiar scenes switched frame by frame. Several students who had gone there to teach were stunned. They didn't expect that Xu Qing had taken so many shots without them knowing.

These experiences are still vivid in my mind, as if they had just happened.

Jingen was holding his homework and calculating a linear equation with his fingers when Du Feiyang hit him on the head. Fifteen-year-old Jingen said: My parents just want me to be able to read and count.

In the dim and dilapidated classroom of Xiushui Village Primary School, under the podium are pairs of eyes eager for knowledge; there is a brother who carries his baby sister to class, there are primary school students who bend down to drink stream water, and there are children who spread out their palms, with thick calluses on their palms.

The style of the VCR changed, and the scene was the students of Class 24 teaching primary school students for the first time; the first child who borrowed a book laughed happily and said thank you loudly to his brothers and sisters; the primary school students who ate the love lunch for the first time and were moved to tears; the primary school students washed their hands obediently and sat in the library to read for the first time...

Before they left, they wrote a letter to themselves ten years later, writing about their dreams when they grow up, "I want to study", "I cherish the opportunity to study", "I will never give up", "I want to go to the city to see the city..."

When the VCR ended, many people fell silent and the classroom was completely silent. Those students who had participated in teaching in remote areas turned their heads and wiped their tears silently.

Yu Qingyan raised her head, tears welling up in her eyes, "Fuck, do you have to cut it so sentimentally?"

The video freezes at the last frame, "I hope that people with dreams can persevere."

"And I wish you all a passing grade in your monthly exams!"

Everyone burst out laughing, and Du Feiyang, who was on the podium, immediately held back the tears that were just brewing.

Miss Li applauded and said, "This is a very meaningful practical activity. Everyone is great!"

There was thunderous applause from below the podium, which lasted for a long time.

Those students who did not participate in the event because they were abroad or traveling during the summer vacation, or were unable to spare the time, felt very complicated after watching this VCR.

It's impossible to say I'm not envious. Just watching a video is so exciting that I can feel the happiness through the screen. Just imagining the regret is like missing out on a hundred million.

In a small place like a picture scroll, every day is so interesting and fulfilling, and there are so many delicious foods...

After the class meeting, other poor students found that those students who had participated in the teaching support actually started studying on the spot.

The serious look on Du Feiyang's face made him look like a top student in a rocket class. Some took out the newly distributed textbooks and started to prepare for the lessons. Some of them wrote down the math homework for senior high school students in advance, and some of them copied the basics of Chinese and memorized chemistry...

Other poor students: "..."

Who could have thought that one day I would be out of tune with you just because I don’t like studying.

After school, Zhou Xiu handed in the competition assignment she had written during the summer vacation to her teacher. When I handed in my homework, the teachers in the office were chatting.

They were discussing Yude's college entrance examination results this year.

The head teacher of the Rocket Class frowned and said, "The last exam was terrible. Only five students in the arts and sciences combined were among the top 100 in the province."

There was a strong condemnation in his words.

The Super No. 4 Middle School next door has 58 students ranked among the top 100 in the province in science alone. In comparison, Yude’s college entrance examination transcript this year can only be described as “miserable”.

Another teacher said: "The source of students this year is probably very poor."

Because of Yude’s Waterloo-like college entrance examination results, a large number of high-quality freshmen this year still flowed into No. 4 Middle School.

Fortunately, I have some support from academic competition results, otherwise I can’t imagine what would happen.

Zhou Xiu had just handed in her competition assignment. Lao Wang drank a sip of wolfberry tea with little interest. He said, "Zhou Xiu, do you really hate me giving you so much homework?"

A string of question marks slowly appeared on Zhou Xiu's face: "???"

Lao Wang said indifferently: "You won't be able to do so much homework in the future."

The situation this year is already very bad. With the expansion of super high schools, Yude has been declining and its student source has been getting worse and worse. The teachers in the teaching and research group unanimously agreed that they should not spend too much energy on competitions, but should focus on preparing for the college entrance examination.

Old Wang no longer had his usual high-spirited smile on his face. He flipped through the test paper that Zhou Xiu had completed. He should have felt relieved and satisfied at this moment, but the more he looked at it, the more heartbroken he felt.

He didn't expect Zhou Xiu to finish these test papers, but she did. Zhou Xiu is too hardworking. This kind of determined child is suitable for competition.

Not doing homework?

Zhou Xiu, who was about to lose her source of income, shook her head and said, "No, I like it very much."

Test papers are money, and Zhou Xiu likes writing test papers to the same extent that he likes money.

Lao Wang sighed, "You should have heard it just now. This year's college entrance examination results are not ideal. The school has changed its strategy and wants to shift the energy of academic competitions to the college entrance examination, and no longer squeeze out the study time of gifted students. The class teacher will talk to you later."

Zhou Xiu said seriously: "But the two are not contradictory."

After hearing this, the grade leader thought: There is indeed a conflict between the two. What's more, Zhou Xiu participated in two competitions, so how could it not affect his studies?

If Zhou Xiu used this kind of skills to learn English, she would definitely be in the top 20 in the province.

Although Mr. He from the biology group was full of regret, he could only say, "Zhou Xiu, study hard for the college entrance examination."

Zhou Xiu said: "It doesn't matter, I still have time to write the competition paper."

But Zhou Xiu's words did not comfort Lao Wang, and he waved at Zhou Xiu.

Zhou Xiu was called in for a talk by her class teacher. In addition, the top students in each class were also called in for a talk by their class teachers.

Miss Li first handed Zhou Xiu a new list of scholarships for the mock exams. "You should try your best in every mock exam. The school attaches great importance to this year's college entrance examination. You should devote some of your energy from the competitions to the college entrance examination."

She said to Zhou Xiu and Xu Qing.

Zhou Xiu was stunned when she saw the scholarship for the mock exam. "The first place in the city's mock exam will receive a 200,000 yuan reward, the second place will receive a 180,000 yuan reward, the third place will receive a 150,000 yuan reward, and the fourth place will receive a 100,000 yuan reward..."

In fact, the “sky-high scholarship” is enough for the college entrance examination reward. Even the mock exams have scholarships, and the school is also anxious to achieve results.

Zhou Xiu's dark eyes became deep, and he held the scholarship list for a long time without saying a word.

Zhou Xiu asked the teacher: "Why?"

Miss Li said: "This year, our school didn't recruit any students who got all A+ in the high school entrance examination. It would be great if you can get into the top ten in the province next year. Just one of you will be great. Zhou Xiu, you have a bright future. Come on..."

Although Yude Middle School finally had a chance to show off in the competition, it could not withstand the mess of this year's senior high school entrance examination. The top students were scared when they saw it and just turned around and applied to No. 4 Middle School.

No. 4 Middle School fought an exceptionally beautiful comeback battle. No matter how Yude's competitions rise or how much scholarships are boasted, No. 4 Middle School's performance remains as stable as a mountain.

Lao Wang's expression was vague, and Zhou Xiu felt a little anxious. The head teacher handed over the scholarship list, and Zhou Xiu understood it instantly.

Zhou Xiu accepted the A4 paper and promised her head teacher earnestly: "I will work hard."

Compared with the huge rewards for the three mock exams, the 260,000 yuan for the first place in the mathematics league...is suddenly not enough.

system:【……】

Hey, hey, hey, young man, your thoughts are a bit dangerous!

Zhou Xiu folded the list and left the office.
