Chapter 3



Zhou Xiu walked into the office, found her teacher and asked, "I don't know how to do a math problem, is the teacher available?"

Teacher Huang teaches Mathematics to Class 24. He himself has also taught regular classes for more than ten years and has never moved. Although teaching in the Rocket Class and Wynners Class has high benefits, it is nowhere near as leisurely and worry-free as teaching in ordinary classes.

He closed the stock app he was browsing and asked with little interest, "What's your question?"

Zhou Xiu pointed to the final question.

"It's no use studying this question, so don't write it. Do you have anything else to do?"

Teacher Huang's wandering eyes moved back to the stocks on the web page.

He didn't think the students in Class 24 were very capable. They played games and slept in class every day. The funny thing was that there was a girl in the class who only knew how to put on makeup all day long.

Instead of wasting your patience on them, you might as well pay more attention to the stock market.

"How can it be useless?" Zhou Xiu asked.

She couldn't ask the final question, so she settled for a geometry question.

Teacher Huang took a look at the test paper. This was a difficult question deliberately set by the mathematics group leader, which was far beyond the level of the students in Class 24. It’s not that he looks down on Class 24. In fact, Class 24 is just a place where a bunch of rubbish rich second-generations gather to waste time.

He frowned and said, "Do you know the properties of harmonic quadrilaterals? Recite them to me."

Zhou Xiu shook his head.

Teacher Huang handed her a pencil and asked, "Can you help me find the wrong point?"

Zhou Xiu shook his head again.

Teacher Huang was so angry that he said, "You don't listen carefully in class, but you pretend to be diligent after class. Your precious time is wasted by students like you. Go back and copy this theorem a hundred times and give it to me!"

Due to the scarce educational resources in the countryside, Zhou Xiu had never been exposed to this knowledge.

She met the teacher's contemptuous gaze, the indifference in which was embarrassing.

"Teacher...I..."

"Are you still making excuses for your mistakes?"

Zhou Xiu said seriously: "I didn't."

She clenched her fists in her sleeves silently and walked out of the office with the test paper.

[Young man, if you want to change other people’s views of you and make the world recognize you, you need to change yourself first. 】

Zhou Xiu stopped at the office door.

The system also said: [If you stop carving, even rotten wood cannot be broken; if you keep carving, even gold and stone can be carved. Most people have average talents, but they can often make up for it through acquired efforts. Young man, do you want to give up? 】

Zhou Xiu clenched the test paper, turned around and walked back into the office.

Zhou Xiu walked towards Teacher Huang's position, and just as Teacher Huang was about to start lecturing with a stern face, he passed him by.

She saw a male teacher sitting leisurely in the corner of the office, so she boldly handed the test paper to him.

"Hello, teacher. I don't know how to answer a few questions. Can you teach me?"

"Oh, can you show it to me?"

The teacher, who was over fifty years old, seemed a little surprised, but he quickly got straight to the point.

It seems that he doesn't care whether Zhou Xiu is his student or not.

Teacher Huang opened his mouth.

Half an hour later, Zhou Xiu stumbled over and solved his confusion. She spent ten minutes organizing her thoughts and filling out the test paper at the table next to her.

When the test paper was filled in, there was no sound from the system indicating that the task was completed.

Zhou Xiu clenched her pen, took a deep breath, and shamelessly asked the kind old teacher.

"Teacher, can you help me mark the paper?"

Not only the old teachers were surprised. Teacher Huang was also stunned. He was angry and furious.

He thought that this poor student was deliberately trying to intimidate him. Otherwise, she would look for anyone else but the teacher with the weirdest temper in the grade group.

The old teacher asked: "Are grades important?"

Of course it is important.

This concerns the important matter of whether Zhou Xiu will walk or take a car back tonight. She knew that she couldn't count on Teacher Huang, who was obsessed with stocks, to grade her test papers.

The old teacher didn't hesitate for long, picked up the red pen and quickly started correcting Zhou Xiu's work.

The test paper is worth 100 points, no more, no less, exactly 80 points.

The bright red eighty fell, and at that moment the system instantly made the sound of completing the task. Zhou Xiu felt that there was no music in the world more beautiful than this.

[Ding——The accuracy rate of Mr. Wang’s math test paper (32A) reaches 80%. Please receive a 5 RMB reward. 】

Zhou Xiu put his hand in his pocket and felt around.

I touched a thin banknote.

She smiled knowingly: "Thank you, teacher."

After Zhou Xiu left, Mr. Huang shirked responsibility and complained to the old teacher:

"That student is so ignorant. She has wasted a lot of your time, right? This kind of student is so difficult to teach. She forgot the theorem I just taught her a few days ago."

Teacher Huang didn't even know that Zhou Xiu had interrupted the class today.

The old teacher said calmly, "How could that be? Although her basics are a little weak, her logic is OK. She got 80 points on the test paper."

Eighty points?

The smile on Teacher Huang's face suddenly froze.

Paper A has always been given to students in the Rocket Class and the Winners Class, especially the last few questions, which are just for the group leaders to play with, and are occasionally used to select talents for the competition class. Although Zhou Xiu took advantage of the situation by asking the teacher for the solution to a big problem.

But it doesn't mean that she can solve all the problems she had done before.

"Haha, then you must have made the test paper easy this time. Xi Shaoyuan from Teacher Wang's class would probably get full marks just by writing casually."

The old teacher said coldly: "He, he got zero points."

Break time.

Although he earned the money for the trip back to the Xi family by taking shortcuts, Zhou Xiu still spent some time to thoroughly understand the knowledge points of these big questions. The notes filled two full pages.

The classmate woke up and saw Zhou Xiu working so hard. He yawned and asked, "You have such good grades, why don't you go to the rocket class?"

The basis for her judgment was simple and crude: since he could come to Yude to study despite his poor family background, he must be an excellent student.

Zhou Xiu corrected her honestly: "My grades are average."

Highlights: "Tsk."

The academic master is so hypocritical.

After school, Zhou Xiu took the subway and bus to return to Xi's home and received a call from home.

The Xi family's aunt informed her with a strange look on her face: "Xiu Xiu, your family called you."

Zhou Xiu took the phone.

"Zhao Di, you are in a blessed place now. I heard that the Xi family is very rich. Don't just focus on studying..."

A cold and hard voice came from the microphone, which scared Zhou Xiu.

Hearing this, Zhou Xiu hung the microphone in the air and ignored the nagging and greedy voice inside. When Zhou Xiu was forced to drop out of school some time ago, it was this sharp voice that said:

"What's the point of a girl reading so many books? She will still marry someone else in the end!"

In the dream, the Zhou family repeatedly emphasized to "Zhou Xiu" that she should have a good relationship with the Xi family, especially Xi Shaoyuan.

"Xiu, you have to cling to the young master of the Xi family. If you follow him, you will be rich in this life."

Xi Shaoyuan's driver had already returned from his job. At this moment, he had just finished running and came back from outside, just in time to see Zhou Xiu making a phone call.

The country girl had a cold and impatient look on her face as she held the phone in the air, not wanting to answer the call from her family at all.

It is completely different from trying to please and flatter the Xi family.

Xi Shaoyuan's gaze lingered on her for a moment.

Zhou Xiu listened to her family members advising her to please Xi Shaoyuan, and when she looked up she saw his cold and lazy eyes.

Zhou Xiu was somewhat relieved that Xi Shaoyuan couldn't understand her grandmother's dialect, otherwise she would have to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Zhou Xiu hung up the phone. I felt a chill in my heart and became alert: It seems that I should listen to less brainwashing calls like this in the future.

Isn’t it good to study hard? She is not as naive as "Zhou Xiu". She can get rich by studying, why should she rely on a man.

[Well said.] 】

[Congratulations to the young man for establishing a correct world view.] 】

kitchen.

While cleaning up, the Xi family's aunt muttered, "Zhou Xiu's family is very strange. They ask questions here and there. Not only about the lady, but also about the young master. They want to get to the bottom of everything."

They don't care that much about their own children. The greedy face was clearly revealed.

Aunt Niu and Zhou Xiu are half-fellow villagers, and she can understand some of Zhou Xiu's local dialect. She was the one who answered the call from Zhou Xiu's family just now.

Aunt Niu was very disgusted.

She began to worry about this sudden appearance of the country girl.

The aunt couldn't help but become alert: "Madam is too careless. She doesn't care about the age of the children. They are already teenagers and still play with them..."

Once a poor girl has seen wealth and luxury, I'm afraid she won't be driven away even by beatings or scoldings.

The butler smiled and said politely: "If the young master was so easy to approach, he would not be a young master."

"I hope the young master can be more cheerful. One more person at home means more life. Don't you think it's good? I think the lady probably thinks so too."

Aunt Niu suddenly fell silent.

The young master grew up under their care, and it's really pitiful to say.

His parents divorced when he was five years old, and he grew up with his mother. Mrs. Xi didn't really care about him, and the way this mother and son got along was very strange. Sometimes she was so busy that she almost forgot she had such a son.

The housekeeper said, "If we are really worried, we can knock on it."

Actually, there is no need to knock.

Zhou Xiu hung up the phone early and wanted to get some water when she heard these words. It turned out that only Xi's mother was slow to react; the others had already been on guard.

Zhou Xiu swallowed, suppressed the urge to drink water, quietly left the kitchen, and went back to her room to do her homework.

[System, I need to preview my homework!] 】

[Come on, young man!] 】

When Zhou Xiu was in the countryside, she had already prepared one-third of mathematics. Mathematics was the subject she was best at. When she was forced to drop out of school, she had nothing to do and read the textbooks a lot.

Zhou Xiu finished her regular homework for tomorrow.

At the same time, a ding sound rang in her mind, [If the accuracy rate of daily homework reaches 90%, you will receive a 15 RMB reward. 】

Zhou Xiu felt her pocket and found two bills inside. She found a paper box and put them away carefully.
