After Xi Shaoyuan left, Zhou Xiu took the lunch box to wash.
Liu Mei asked anxiously, "Xiu'er, Master Xi is gone?"
She whispered, "Your father will be hospitalized for two weeks this time. Thanks to him for helping to pay the bill, the medical bill is more than 10,000 yuan..."
Zhou Cheng said, "Xiu'er, take Dad's card and go to the bank to withdraw the money and return it to the young master of the Xi family."
Zhou Cheng thought of the 6,000 yuan he won from scratching the lottery last time. This kind of money earned by chance would eventually have to be spent somewhere else.
The money in this bank card is all Zhou Cheng's hard-earned money. Zhou Xiu felt it was heavy in her hand and was speechless.
The system spoke at this time, instructing Zhou Xiu: "Tell them that you bought medical insurance for them, and that 70% of the medical expenses can be reimbursed this time. As for the remaining three thousand yuan, you can handle it with the scholarship you received for the monthly exam. 】
Zhou Xiu frowned slowly, a questioning look on his face.
She remembered that her parents did not have medical insurance.
The system remained calm and continued: [I will compensate them now, but the money will really be deducted this time. Don't worry, social security is real social security. After this time, all medical expenses can be reimbursed. 】
[Ding——The system balance was re-settled, 10386.8 was deducted successfully and has been transferred to Xi Shaoyuan’s account. 】
At home, a stack of banknotes was suddenly missing from the box that Zhou Xiu used to store money.
Zhou Xiu's eyes showed warmth, and she told her parents what it said.
Zhou Cheng and Liu Mei were overjoyed to hear this, but they were not suspicious at all, because their daughter had been very capable since she was young and she was always worried about other people's affairs.
"What a great thing! Xiu'er is really hardworking. She did well in the exam and even won a scholarship from the school." Zhou Cheng couldn't stop smiling when he heard this.
He felt so proud that even the severe pain in his legs was relieved.
Xiu'er is much more ambitious than her cousins and sisters. Even if all of them were put together, they would not be as successful as her.
"Xiu'er is really thoughtful and has bought social security for us all," said Liu Mei.
Zhou Xiu returned the bank card to her father and said, "Don't touch the money in the card."
Zhou Cheng still gave the card to his daughter, and said with a fierce face: "Xiu'er has the ability to get a scholarship, use it to buy some notebooks and clothes, Dad still has this little money."
Zhou Xiu did not argue with Zhou Cheng. He accepted the card and left the hospital with the lunch box.
…
On Monday, Xi Shaoyuan discovered that Zhou Xiu had indeed transferred the medical expenses to him using a bank card. He raised his eyebrows and looked at the 10,386.8 yuan on his phone in silence.
This little bit of money was just a drop in the bucket for him and not worth worrying about. If Zhou Xiu hadn't reminded him to transfer the money, Xi Shaoyuan would have forgotten about it.
However, this amount of money was a lot for Zhou Xiu, and he felt a little painful after the system deducted the money. She counted the thin stack of bills in the box and frowned.
Zhou Cheng's legs were indeed in trouble, and Zhou Xiu was worried about letting him continue working on the construction site. Moreover, in Zhou Xiu's dream, Zhou Cheng also fell seriously ill due to a broken leg.
Zhou Xiu didn't even dare to let him do heavy work at the construction site. In this way, getting the scholarship at the end of the semester means even more to Zhou Xiu.
For the poor, there is never enough money.
On Tuesday afternoon, Class 24 had two self-study classes.
Old Wang knocked on the window next to Zhou Xiu, signaling her to open it.
He casually handed her a test paper and said with a smile: "Zhou Xiu, your class happens to have two consecutive self-study classes, so do this test paper well."
"When you're done, go to the next class and give it to me."
In the behind-the-scenes footage of Zhou Xiu memorizing her lessons, I saw that Lao Wang was taking care of her and gave her a test paper to write. I didn't know whether I should feel sorry for her or not.
She bent over the table to stifle her laughter.
When the poor students around saw this scene, they were both envious and afraid of this special care.
The teacher in the key class is so terrible. He loves to give students test papers to write.
Zhou Xiu closed the chemistry textbook and started writing the test paper. During the self-study class, she almost fell asleep while writing.
Because Zhou Cheng injured his leg during this period, Liu Mei and Zhou Xiu had to take turns to keep watch over him in the hospital.
After Zhou Xiu finished writing, he glanced through it. These were the weekly test papers for the Rocket Class and the Winners Class. These two classes were the guarantee of the school's key rate, and they had been very strict since the second year of high school. The difficulty of the weekly test papers was similar to that of the final exams.
Zhou Xiu finished the test paper before get out of class ended and handed it to Lao Wang.
Lao Wang used the third class to efficiently correct the test papers of two classes and distributed them.
After getting the test paper, Zhou Xiu took a look at her score, 135 points. Although it was not a low score, Zhou Xiu was not satisfied with the result. She was careless and chose the wrong answer on one of the multiple-choice questions, which resulted in a five-point deduction.
She checked the answers carefully and corrected the mistakes.
The next day.
Lao Wang reviewed the test papers in the Rocket Class and praised Lu Lingshan by the way.
"Lu Lingshan did well in this exam. She was brave enough to face her shame. It was surprising."
In this exam, Xie Cheng still ranked first with 145 points. The second place is Xu Haobo with 143 points. The third place was the dark horse, Lu Lingshan.
Xie Cheng and Xu Haobo have always been good at math, so it didn't cause much reaction, but Lu Lingshan scored 140 points this time.
The students in the Rocket Class were all surprised and looked at Lu Lingshan with admiration. In just half a month, the class beauty studied hard and was doing test papers all the time.
Although he was scolded by Xie Shen, he turned around and caught up with him immediately.
Like the second Zhou Xiu.
It turns out that studying hard is really useful, and hardworking people are so charming.
Especially since Lu Lingshan is so pretty and studies so hard. Even more admirable.
Immediately, a student from the Rocket Class secretly took a photo of Lu Lingshan’s test paper and posted a message describing how hard she had worked that month. The younger students in the school finished this bowl of chicken soup before the end of the semester.
"Senior Lu really is worthy of being a goddess."
"She is good at studying and beautiful. She is truly a model student with both good character and excellent behavior."
Some students in the Rocket Class secretly said, "Xie Cheng shouldn't say that about Lu Lingshan."
"Comparing Zhou Xiu to her is really too derogatory."
"Zhou Xiu only scored 135 points this time." Someone mentioned it inadvertently.
Lu Lingshan pursed her lips, smiled and said, "Thank God, you are right. He was the one who woke me up with his scolding."
"Thanks to his encouragement."
As she said this, she glanced at Xie Cheng.
Xie Cheng lay on the table and took a deep sleep. He didn't hear any of the discussions at all.
After class, Qi Yaguang took the math homework book to Wen Na's class and passed by Class 24. She glanced at Zhou Xiu.
Zhou Xiu happened to be sitting in the first group seat by the window.
She looked through the window in the corridor, looked at Zhou Xiu who was memorizing with her chin on her hand and said, "I heard that you only got 135 points this time, right?"
"Is it because Lao Wang praised Zhou Xiu too much that she became proud?
I’m telling you, don’t do this. I’m waiting for you to perform amazingly well in the final exam. Even Lingshan scored 140 points this time. At the end of the semester, everyone will show their true strength. My classmates will not give in to you easily. ”
Huaxu replied on behalf of his deskmate, "Just wait and see you on the Honor Roll. Why are you so concerned about Xiuxiu?"
The behind-the-scenes footage really makes me feel that Qi Yaguang truly loves Zhou Xiu.
She always knew Zhou Xiu's score in every math test. Even Huaxu couldn't remember how many points Zhou Xiu got in the exam, but Huaxu felt that Qi Yaguang probably remembered it better than anyone else.
These top students are terrible.
I was bored and started browsing Weibo, and unexpectedly saw the comments from Lu Lingshan’s crazy fans again.
After Qi Yaguang left, she asked Zhou Xiu: "Is Lu Lingshan good at math? Why is she so boastful?"
Zhou Xiu yawned sleepily and hummed lightly: "It should be okay, I haven't paid special attention to it."
Seeing that the final exams were approaching, Zhou Xiu had been so sleepy that she often lay on the table to catch up on her sleep. She touched Zhou Xiu's head with heartache.
"Don't stay up so many late nights when you get home. You'll be more efficient studying during the day."
Zhou Xiu saw that Huaxu had misunderstood and had no intention of explaining the family affairs to her.
She nodded, "I will, I know my limits."
Zhou Cheng will be discharged from the hospital in a week. Although he won't be able to sleep well due to the night watch, Zhou Xiu can make up for it during the daytime breaks.
Zhou Xiu reviewed his mistakes several times and sighed.
If I do like this in the final exam, I won't be able to get the mathematics scholarship.
Zhou Xiu knows her own strength. Xie Cheng is like a huge mountain that cannot be shaken for the time being, and Xu Haobo's level is slightly higher than hers.
If the test paper is of moderate difficulty, especially if the amount of calculations is slightly more, this situation may not be the case.
The ideal situation is that these two students get first and second place, and Zhou Xiu gets third place, so that she can also get a scholarship.
Unexpectedly, even Lu Lingshan has become a dark horse and squeezed in. The difficulty of this weekly test paper is indeed quite high, slightly higher than the monthly exam.
With a score of 140, one's ability cannot be ignored, and the result was so outstanding that Zhou Xiu was a little surprised.
The scholarship is not worth mentioning to them, but it means a lot to Zhou Xiu.
If Zhou Xiu made this kind of mistake again in the exam and missed the scholarship, she would be heartbroken.
Xu Qing, who was sitting next to him, heard the conversation between the two and also remembered the appointment for the final exam.
He couldn't help but frown as he watched Zhou Xiu yawning sleepily all the time recently.
…
After Huaxu finished talking to Zhou Xiu, he browsed Weibo out of boredom. It's better not to watch it. The more you watch it, the angrier you get.
In the last school sports meet, Zhou Xiu defeated Lu Lingshan to win first place in several sports events and also got full marks in the monthly math exam. This time, her fans unsurprisingly mentioned Zhou Xiu.
"How did that girl who was known to be good at math and sports score now? She seems to be unknown now and there is no follow-up?"
"The senior student scored better than her in math, but she actually tried to frame her by accusing her."
“That’s disgusting.”
Huatidits found the source and ordered the students in Rocket Class to delete the original post.
She complained in her circle of friends with a speechless look on her face: "Lu Lingshan is beautiful on her own, why does she always drag Xiuxiu to step on her?"
Zhang Qi explained from below: "Don't you know that Zhou Xiu from your class is very popular with Lao Wang. Lu Lingshan was criticized by Lao Wang some time ago and he tactfully persuaded her to withdraw from the Mathematical Olympiad class."
Highlights: "..."
It turns out that Lao Wang not only loves to give Zhou Xiu test papers, but also makes her very hateful.
Xu Qing asked in the comments: "What has Zhou Xiu been doing recently? Why is she so sleepy in class?"
Hua Xi didn’t know, so she replied to him in private chat: “Is she too nervous about this exam and studying too late at night?”
Xu Qing shook his head. He intuitively felt that although Zhou Xiu was diligent and hardworking, she was definitely not the kind of person who only studied hard. She would never stay up late to study to improve her grades.
However, Xu Qing quickly understood what was going on.
A few days later, when Xu Qing was on his way home by car and passed by the People's Hospital, he accidentally glanced out of the car window and happened to see Zhou Xiu walking into the hospital with a lunch box.
Xu Qing passed this road every day after school, but this was the first time he met Zhou Xiu here.
He got out of the car and wanted to stop Zhou Xiu to ask about the situation.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Xiu disappeared in the blink of an eye. After a while, he found the ward Zhou Xiu went to.
Zhou Xiu's father limped and complained in front of the bed, "Hey, I'm not a cripple."
"I've already said I can go home. I've asked you two to serve me. What a hassle! Xiu'er is going to have her final exams soon, and I won't be able to sleep if you keep watch over me."
Zhou Xiu smiled and said, "But without us, what if you fall or get hurt in the middle of the night? And will you still be able to live here for another month?"
"It's almost there, Dad, just bear with it for a while."
Xu Qing raised his eyebrows, understood, and left the hospital.
That night, Zhou Xiu took out her textbook to review. I unexpectedly learned that because the roads are slippery in winter and the number of orthopedic patients has increased, the hospital has added medical staff on night patrol.
There was an extra male nurse on night shift in Zhou Xiu's father's ward. The new male nurse was very enthusiastic. At night, he helped Zhou Cheng go to the toilet, turn over, and change dressings. His service was meticulous.
The next night, Zhou Xiu was sent back home by Zhou Cheng to sleep.
