Chapter 36



When Qi Yaguang heard this, he looked at Lu Lingshan in surprise.

She never paid attention to the family background of her classmates, and she had no idea what kind of bus they took to school.

"No wonder. Thank God - he doesn't look like someone who would pay attention to this kind of information."

Qi Yaguang thought of this and suddenly said, "That table belongs to Zhou Xiu!"

She was closest to Xie Shen at that time!

Qi Yaguang recalled the time when he got Zhou Xiu’s thermos. The four words on it should have been “Hope Project”, but the irony was that Zhou Xiu was wearing all branded clothes at the time and she was actually assigned to Class 24. This is what confuses Qi Yaguang the most.

Although the students in Class 24 idled around all day and always ranked last in exams, they were the real rich second generation in terms of family background.

And why did Zhou Xiu go to Class 24?

In fact, this was purely an unintentional mistake on the part of Xi's mother. She originally wanted to put Zhou Xiu into the Wynners class, but unfortunately the head teacher of the Wynners class rejected her sternly after seeing Zhou Xiu's grades. As a result, Miss Li became the one who took over.

She thought that one more or one less poor student in the class wouldn't make much difference, so she agreed for the sake of Xi's mother.

Qi Yaguang said: "I never expected that the clothes she wore before didn't look cheap."

Lu Lingshan smiled.

Not only is it not cheap, Zhou Xiu lives in the Xi family, and her food, clothing and other expenses are all based on Xi Shaoyuan's standards. She is more wealthy than many girls. If I hadn't investigated, I wouldn't have known that Zhou Xiu was just a country boy.

night.

When Zhou Xiu returned home, she saw her parents lying on the bed exhausted, and her mother was massaging her father's back.

She carefully analyzed the advice of her class teacher and decided that if she couldn't get the scholarship, it would be safer to apply for an additional subsidy for poor students.

When Zhou Xiu finished her homework and was about to fill out her poverty application form, she discovered that it was missing.

Fortunately, Zhou Xiu still remembered what materials were needed to apply for poverty subsidies.

On the weekend, she went to copy a series of documents including her parents' proof of employment in the city and proof of income.

On Monday, she went to Miss Li again to ask for an application form. After receiving the application form, Zhou Xiu filled in her information on the spot and attached supporting documents.

This happened to be discovered by Lao Wang next door.

Lao Wang silently withdrew his gaze, thinking about the last time he gave her a test paper, but she forced a hundred yuan on him.

Teacher Wang often gives test papers to the top students in the class. Although the test papers only cost a few dozen yuan, they are just a drop in the bucket for them. The gift is meaningful even though it is small. The teachers don’t care, and the students care even less, and they won’t specifically pay the teachers for the test papers.

Lao Wang couldn't help but think of a saying: the poorer the child, the more ambitious he is.

Rocket class.

Lao Wang praised Xie Cheng's homework in class and took some time to comment on his ideas. Then he criticized some students whose math performance had declined, including Lu Lingshan.

Lu Lingshan usually scored above 120 points in math tests, but her math scores declined after joining the Mathematical Olympiad competition class.

This is something that is unexpected.

Lao Wang warned seriously: "Not every student has the talent like Xie Cheng. If you can't achieve good results in Mathematical Olympiad, the math in the college entrance examination is actually your real way out."

The top students are used to being scolded by Lao Wang and have become immune to such remarks.

After class, Qi Yaguang sat next to Lu Lingshan. She had a stern face and seemed to be tirelessly writing test papers and homework.

She said comfortingly, "Don't take Lao Wang's words to heart. Last time, he scolded me in public for not being as good as Zhou Xiu."

"Li Simiao and Xu Haobo were also scolded by him. You just haven't adapted to the rhythm of our class yet. It will be fine after a while..."

Xie Cheng was sitting not far from Lu Lingshan, and his break between classes was interrupted.

He opened his eyes lazily and said, "Teacher Wang didn't scold you. You are indeed not as good as Zhou Xiu."

Qi Yaguang, who tried to give examples to comfort her best friend, was choked by Xie Shen, whom she admired.

After all, her math level is among the top five in her grade, and math has always been her pride. Lao Wang criticized her calculations as being too poor and not as good as Zhou Xiu, but Xie Shen, what's going on?

Xie Cheng paused and suggested: "Lu Lingshan should focus on the math for the college entrance examination."

Qi Yaguang turned his head and saw Lu Lingshan clenching the pen in her hand, her face turned pale, and she leaned over the table and started crying delicately.

Qi Yaguang and Xie Cheng said angrily, "How come I am not as good as Zhou Xiu? I am in the top ten in my grade, and she is outside the top 100."

Everyone looked at Xie Cheng with curiosity, surprise and accusation.

"Thank God, how can you talk like that?"

You made even the most beautiful girl in class cry. Is there anything wrong with people studying hard?

After crying, Lu Lingshan wiped her tears and continued to write the test paper. Her level of diligence was beyond reach.

Qi Yaguang patted her friend's shoulder and comforted her, "Don't cry, hard work is useful. Zhou Xiu also relied on hard work to improve her grades."

"Although she is annoying, you can learn from her study method."

The smile on Lu Lingshan's face froze on her lips before it could even bloom.

Does she still need to learn from Zhou Xiu?

After school.

Lu Lingshan went to the office to help the class teacher organize documents, application forms and a series of other chores. There are always a lot of chores like this at the end of the semester, and Rocket's homeroom teacher also happens to be the grade director.

She started to sort out various identification materials, and halfway through, she suddenly found the materials submitted by Zhou Xiu.

A week later.

Zhou Xiu was called to Miss Li's office, and Miss Li returned her documents. "Your family is not a particularly poor household, and you lack information about your place of origin, so you cannot apply."

Zhou Xiu was stunned for a moment, sighed, and took his things back.

The system slowly said: [Young man, am I not doing enough to help the poor? 】

[Ding——The Galaxy Interstellar Poor People Support Foundation is dedicated to serving you. 】

Miss Li said: "Forget it if you don't get the grade. Go back and take the exam well and try to get a scholarship—"

Having said this, she suddenly stopped talking.

She thought of Zhou Xiu's grades, and realized that she was still far from getting a scholarship. Saying these words sounded like she was comforting a deaf person.

Zhou Xiu nodded.

System: [Young man, we don’t want poverty subsidies, we want scholarships! 】

Zhou Xiu folded her watch. She shouldn't have pinned her hopes on applying for poverty subsidies. After this path was completely cut off, Zhou Xiu's goal of getting a scholarship became clearer.

【good. We go get scholarships. 】

After returning home, Zhou Xiu put his poverty materials in a plastic file bag. As a motivation, always remind yourself to cherish time.

Use your strength to change your predicament with integrity.

She valued time so much that she didn't even have the energy to finish her winter vacation homework in advance, and had to postpone it indefinitely before the final exam.

Huatuo saw that Zhou Xiu went to the office and immediately became very serious when he came back.

In the past, we would occasionally take a break and go for a walk outside during breaks, but now, these activities have been completely cancelled.

After everyone had lunch at noon, Zhou Xiu was still trying hard to make use of the time to study.

Students in the second year of high school are not forced to attend evening self-study classes, especially those who live outside the school. But Zhou Xiu took part in evening self-study for the first time and studied until ten o'clock every day.

No one from Class 24 came to the evening self-study class. The entire classroom was empty, with only Zhou Xiu standing alone.

One day, the boys from Class 24 stayed in school to play a few more basketball games and did not disperse until eight o'clock. After the breakup, one or two people returned to the classroom to get their schoolbags.

I didn't expect that the lights were on in the classroom. When I walked in, I saw Zhou Xiu studying there.

Du Feiyang was frightened and the basketball in his hand suddenly fell to the floor.

"Xiu Xiu, why are you still here?"

Zhou Xiu turned a deaf ear and immersed himself in studying.

Tan Ming also didn't like to put his belongings in the basketball team's locker room, because there were a lot of girls blocking it every day. In the teaching building, these students didn't dare to be so presumptuous.

He also followed Du Feiyang back to the classroom to get his belongings.

Du Feiyang was shocked when he saw Zhou Xiu's back as she studied hard. He walked out of the corridor and called Huaxu to tell her about it.

Huatiao spent a long time on the other end before saying, "Why don't we come to the evening study session tomorrow night as well."

“I can’t study at home.”

Huaxu also felt the pressure of the final exams. Even though she had to face her tutor’s long face every day after school, she had no interest in studying. But sitting next to Zhou Xiu and seeing how seriously she studied and did her homework, Huateng felt particularly motivated to study.

Du Feiyang hung up the phone and said to Tan Ming: "I'm not going back. You can go back by yourself today."

"I will study with Xiuxiu."

Tan Ming just drank a sip of water, and Du Feiyang's words slowly appeared on his face: "???"

"Du Feiyang, are you crazy?"

Tan Ming's eyes moved between the two people. A grown man said such words late at night. If there was no spark between the two of them, Tan Ming would have mistakenly thought that Du Feiyang had a crush on Zhou Xiu.

Du Feiyang put down the basketball and spread out his homework book: "I'm not crazy. Have you forgotten? I want to prove that I am not a piece of barbecued pork."

"Xiu Xiu is right. We must believe in the power of hard work."

Tan Ming packed his schoolbag neatly and said, "Whatever you want."

Before Tan Ming left, Huaxu also hurried to the classroom with his schoolbag. Tan Ming was even more speechless: They all seemed to have been bewitched by Zhou Xiu.

The next day, everyone around Tan Ming was using Zhou Xiu's review materials.

Du Feiyang treated Zhou Xiu's chemistry information as a treasure and recited it at least three times a day.

He couldn't help but say, "Zhou Xiu only scored around 70 points in the last monthly exam on physics and chemistry. Do you think this... is useful?"

Yuan Ruoyi looked up blankly: "Comparing the chemical formulas in the textbook, they are all correct. They should be useful, right?"

If she memorizes all of this, it would be a huge improvement if she could score around 70 points in the final exam.

Du Feiyang raised his head and looked at Tan Ming in surprise, "Really? You haven't read the information compiled by Xiuxiu yet?"

It is understandable that Yuan Ruoyi, who is obviously a poor student, cannot distinguish between good and bad. Tan Ming's grades are in the upper middle range in the class. If he reads carefully, he should be able to distinguish between good and bad.

Alas——Du Feiyang sighed.

Huaxu finished drinking the milk and inserted a straw into Zhou Xiu's milk.

She said calmly, "Even if Xiuxiu's physics and chemistry are not good, her math and biology should be good. I don't see you."

"Tan Ming, please take some time to read it. Otherwise, it would be a shame if you drag down the whole class in the final exam."

The group of poor students around Tan Ming nodded proudly.

It’s not that they are overconfident, they really think they can do well in the final exam and that they have all the information they need.
