Chapter 6767 [Update 1]
Jiang Hehua was also looking at the grade rankings on the bulletin board of No. 1 Middle School. Like many people from Wu Middle School, she actually didn't take the people from No. 1 Middle School seriously.
She had good grades since she was a child. When she was studying at Linhe Primary School, her grades were always in the top three in the class. When she was in junior high school, she was also in the top ten in the grade. When she came to Wu Middle School, her grades still did not drop. She could rank in the top 30 in the grade in Wu Middle School, and occasionally in the top 20.
The two bulletin boards of No. 1 Middle School were placed on both sides of the main entrance of the teaching building. They had to pass these two bulletin boards to go to the examination room. She was really just taking a casual look, and didn't expect to see a name that surprised her on the grade rankings.
If this person's name was lower, such as in the middle of the two lists, or at the bottom, she would not have seen it. But her name was so obvious, the only two-character name in the top ten - Jiang Liu.
She was shocked.
What's so good about her grades?
She recalled Jiang Liu's grades from childhood to adulthood.
Jiang Liu was two or three years younger than the children of the same age in the class, and even entered school at the age of three or four. As a result, she was the little one in the class since she was a child, sitting in the first row of the classroom. The students in the class were much taller than her, and no one would take her to play skipping rope or jumping rubber rope.
She was too young.
The age difference was too big, which meant that Jiang Xi's comprehension was much worse than that of her older classmates. Her grades were not good, but not bad either, and she was just average. There were more than 70 students in her class, and she was completely submerged in the crowd, like a transparent person.
She and Jiang Xi were not familiar with each other, mainly because among the girls in the village who were still in school, there were only her, Jiang Xi, and Jiang Gangqin. The villagers would inevitably compare the three of them together, and she had always been the one who stood out from the crowd, so Jiang Xi and Jiang Gangqin, who also had average grades, played together more often.
Sometimes Jiang Xi and Jiang Gangqin came to play with her, but she was also reading and studying at home, and had never gone out.
She was also in a key class in junior high school, while Jiang Xi and Jiang Gangqin were in ordinary classes.
Jiang Xi was admitted to No. 1 Middle School in the junior high school entrance examination. She was quite surprised. Jiang Xi was admitted to No. 1 Middle School?
Although No. 1 Middle School is not as good as Wu Middle School, it is also a well-known key high school in Wucheng. She thought that Jiang Xi could only get into No. 2 Middle School at best, but she didn't expect that he could get into No. 1 Middle School, and Jiang Gangqin didn't go to high school and went directly to junior college.
Now the little transparent person in her memory has actually made it to the top ten of the No. 1 Middle School's performance rankings. This makes her feel absurd and unreal, thinking that they may have the same name and surname. After all,
there are many people with the surname Jiang here.
But there are fewer people with the surname Jiang and also named Xi.
Because people of their generation usually name their children something like Hua, Juan, Xia, Qin, or Zhaodi, Laidi, Pandi, Daidi, Yindi, Youdi. She has only seen one Jiang Xi in her life. Is it possible that Jiang Xi, who happens to be in No. 1 Middle School, is it really possible that they have the same name? She looked at the
score after Jiang Xi again, which was over 600 points.
The score is very high. Even if she takes exams normally, her score is just like this, and she can't even get such a high score.
Maybe the test paper of No. 1 Middle School is simpler, she thought so, and turned to enter the examination room.
Students from Wu Middle School entered No. 1 Middle School one after another, and students from No. 1 Middle School also went to Wu Middle School one after another.
Students of both schools live on campus. The teaching building and office building of No. 1 Middle School are located on the outermost side near the school gate. Inside are the cafeteria, the girls' dormitory, the staff apartment area, and the boys' dormitory.
Jiang Bai, wearing a set of clothes that Jiang Xi had prepared for him, walked among the crowd.
He walked out of the boys' dormitory in the innermost staff apartment area, passing by the football field, basketball court, girls' dormitory, cafeteria, and teaching building.
There were so many people, so many boys, but Jiang Bai, walking in the crowd, felt as if a light had hit him, separating him from the people around him.
After so many days of holding his head high and his back straight, and with enough meat and nutrition, his height has soared again, and he is now 1.81 meters tall. His skin is white and shiny, his lips are moist and red, his eyebrows are cool, and his temperament is calm. Among a group of people with cold and dark colors, he is like a beautiful boy who walked out of a mural in a movie.
The students of Wuzhong really don't want to embarrass themselves by looking at the students of No. 1 Middle School.
After all, Wuzhong and No. 1 Middle School are sworn enemies, and they think they are superior to No. 1 Middle School and don't take the students of No. 1 Middle School seriously.
But they really can't help but look.
Isn't this too beautiful?
That clothes looks ordinary, why does it look so good on him? So fashionable?
"Do you guys look at that guy? Does he look like a Hong Kong star?"
"Who is that guy?"
"Is he also a student of No. 1 Middle School?"
some girls asked quietly.
"I don't know. I've never heard of him."
The students of Wuzhong and No. 1 Middle School really have no contact with each other.
The gates of the two schools are usually tightly closed. The management of Wuzhong is no looser than No. 1 Middle School, only stricter. It is rare to see Wuzhong students out shopping on the street. At most, they buy something in the store at the school gate on Sundays and then go back to their own school.
Jiang Bai is even more of a stay-at-home guy. If Jiang Xi hadn't opened a store at the school gate, he would have spent half a semester in the classroom, dormitory, and cafeteria without stepping out of the school gate. Besides, Jiang Bai was just ordinary good-looking before, not as good-looking as he is now, as if he was glowing.
Those students from Wu Middle School who pretended not to care and looked away after just one glance couldn't help but secretly turned back to take a few more glances. Many girls secretly envied him in their hearts.
Why doesn't their school have such a good-looking guy? If
I had known earlier when filling out the application form for the high school entrance examination, I would have chosen No. 1 Middle School.
There are too few things that students can use for entertainment these days. If a girl secretly hides two extracurricular books, it would be like a treasure that can be borrowed by all the girls in the class.
What about "Reader", "Youth Digest", "Martial Arts", "Flower Season and Rainy Season", which girl has not read a few campus short romance novels? Originally, it was difficult for them to find the shadow of sweet love in novels in the boring high school life, but after seeing Jiang Bo, the male protagonists of the romance novels they had read suddenly walked into their reality.
There really are such boys!
Until Jiang Bo crossed the road, there were students walking from Wuzhong on the way. When they looked back at him, they didn't see the person in front of them, and they stepped on the shoes of the person in front of them and bumped into him.
The girl who was bumped into was also embarrassed because she was also stealing glances at Jiang Bai.
But they just looked at it, and after that, they all went to find their corresponding examination rooms.
Jiang Xi also took his admission ticket and found his corresponding examination room.
The examination rooms were all messed up. Jiang Xi and several students from Class 3 were assigned to the same examination room. The tables and chairs in the examination room were also pulled apart, and there was a short distance between each seat.
When Jiang Xi sat down, he found that all the chairs were placed in the opposite direction, that is, they were facing the blackboard at the back, so as to prevent students from leaving any books in the desk drawers and being seen by the candidates, although the teachers had already asked the students to clear them out.
In the morning, there were math and Chinese exams, and both subjects were not in the same examination room.
Mathematics took her a little longer, but she finished Chinese half an hour earlier. After checking it again and making sure there were no problems, she put the test paper aside, picked up the draft paper that was handed out, and wrote the manuscript of "The Great Song" on the paper.
The students of No. 1 Middle School took the exam at Wu Middle School, and the teachers who supervised the exam were teachers from Wu Middle School. There were two teachers in each exam room, one in front and one behind. Sometimes the teachers would walk back and forth, or stop to look at the test paper of a student to see how they answered.
Although the test papers were jointly set by the deans of the academic affairs offices of several schools and their senior teachers, the main people who set the questions were still the teachers of Wu Middle School and No. 1 Middle School, and the teachers of No. 2 Middle School also set some.
Except for the senior year, which was completely in accordance with the college entrance examination standards, the rest of the first and second years of high school took into account the course progress of other high schools and made certain adjustments.
Among these schools, the teaching progress of No. 1 Middle School and Wuzhong must be the fastest, and the teaching progress of the key classes of the two schools is at the forefront.
The invigilators of Wuzhong were also observing the students
of No. 1 Middle School to see how they were learning. As they walked, they walked behind a student's desk in No. 1 Middle School and watched the student put the test paper aside after finishing it and write something on the draft paper.
He thought that what the student wrote was a draft of the composition, and finally copied it into the composition grid. He picked up the test paper she put aside and took a look. The composition was finished, and the handwriting was neat and powerful. It did not look like a young girl himself, but looked like the calligraphy of old teachers like them who had practiced calligraphy for many years. It was vigorous and powerful, wide open and closed, beautiful and grand.
The composition is also very well written. There is no trace of smearing or editing, and it is written in one go.
He originally just took a casual look at it, but unexpectedly he was directly attracted by her composition. He looked into it. The writing was spicy and sophisticated, but also graceful. From his perspective, such a composition would be deducted even one point for him.
After he put down the test paper, he looked at the girl again.
Is it a girl?
He walked from the back to the front. At this time, he could only see the boy's short hair, and the snow-white ears under the short black hair. Seeing
such white ears, his first reaction was that it was a girl.
He put the test paper back and looked at the name on it - Jiang Xi.
As soon as the invigilator picked up her test paper, Jiang Xi turned over the draft paper and covered it with her hand, not letting the invigilator see that she was writing.
The teacher saw that she turned over the draft paper and pressed it with her hand. He was about to put down the paper and leave, but suddenly his heart moved, worried that she was cheating. He reached out and pulled the draft paper away.
During this period of time, everyone was studying hard. There was only one day on the weekend. The seven main course teachers each assigned a test paper homework, and there were seven papers for seven courses.
Even a big test like the joint entrance examination would take a whole day to finish. Seven test papers had to be done on the weekend. In reality, how could it be a weekend? What is the difference from normal classes? With
so much homework, she simply couldn't spend two hours in the morning and two hours in the afternoon in the Internet cafe, because there were many people in the afternoon, but there were few machines in the Internet cafe, and there was no computer for you to go online. She could only complete the 12,000 tasks in two hours in the morning and send them to Wang Yong.
After that, the whole weekend, except for delivering lunch to Grandpa Jiang at noon and night, was all spent on reviewing test papers.
It was the same for Jiang Bai. He originally wanted to take advantage of Sunday to go to his sister's store to make some extra money, but the bad news of the joint entrance examination came. The senior high school student who originally had one day off was gone! His ten yuan was gone too.
But he still dressed very well every day, according to the matching of his sister for him, without any care.
Especially on the day of the joint entrance examination, he could only dress like this and walk around No. 1 Middle School, but now he could walk around Wu Middle School and play games at Wu Middle School!
He wanted to sell the men's clothing in his sister's store to the boys in Wu Middle School!
Jiang Bai, who was obsessed with money, had been studying harder recently and walked more confidently. He was no longer the Jiang Bai who always kept his head down and read quietly. He held his head high and was in high spirits all day long. His life was full of hope. What he looked forward to most every day was the arrival of Sunday.
Thinking that after the joint entrance examination, boys from Wu Middle School would come to his sister's store to buy clothes, he wished he could go around in front of all the boys in Wu Middle School and show off his clothes in all directions.
So after the two exams in the morning, the students of Wuzhong returned to their own school, had lunch, and came to No. 1 Middle School again in the afternoon. When they saw Jiang Bai again, they found that he had changed his clothes. His clothes were different from those in the morning!
But he was still so handsome!
Jiang Bai was still walking in the crowd so energetically. In order to show his clothes in all directions, he even went to the teaching building, returned to his class, and took a pen from his seat.
At this time, the teaching building of No. 1 Middle School was full of students from Wuzhong.
In the evening, they finished dinner and returned to No. 1 Middle School to continue the exam. When they saw Jiang Bai again, he had changed his clothes again!
Why do they remember it so clearly?
Because the boys in Wuzhong don’t look at his face, they only look at his clothes. The reason why
he can dress so handsomely must be because of his clothes!
After seeing Jiang Bai change his clothes three times a day, they envied him for being rich and having so many nice clothes. At the same time, they had a new understanding of why No. 1 Middle School could not pass the exams better than Wu Middle School.
If all the students of No. 1 Middle School were like that guy, spending all day and night thinking about dressing up, how could they compete with Wu Middle School for the title of the best high school in Wucheng? Look at Wu Middle School, they study all the time. The teachers' slogan is: study until you die!
They get up at five in the morning to run and recite the text and practice English. When they return to the dormitory at night, they still recite silently after turning off the lights. How can the students of No. 1 Middle School want to compete with Wu Middle School? They
can't help but feel more proud! Chest up!
In one day, the joint exam was finally completed. The exam papers were unified this
time, which means that the ranking of the students from several high schools will be clear after the results of the joint exam are released. The exam was on Saturday, and they were given a day off after the exam. That is to say, after all the teachers and students had been studying for half a month, they finally had a day off, a holiday without any homework. Everyone was relieved.
Because there was only one day off, no matter whether it was the students of No. 1 Middle School or the students of Wu Middle School, they did not go home, but studied in school.
The monthly exam was over, the joint exam was over, and the teachers did not assign homework. The teachers and students who had been studying hard for half a month were tired of studying, and they all chose to relax and go shopping.
Jiang Bai got up early in the morning, dressed himself neatly, and ran to Jiang Xi's store. He first mopped the store inside and out, and tidied up Grandpa Jiang's bed. Then he took out the electric iron that he had borrowed from Tong Jingang's house and had not yet returned, unpacked a large package, and sat there, like a quiet snail boy, ironing clothes.
One piece at a time, carefully.
Last time, Uncle Wang Yong sent too many clothes. After so many days, he only sold one large package of clothes and two large packages of shoes. There were still four large packages of clothes that had not been unpacked and sold. There were still ten days before the final exam. Jiang Bai was afraid that if he didn't sell them all, there would be even fewer people and no business when the winter vacation came.
Of the four large packages, two were winter clothes. The remaining two were defective summer clothes from last year in Uncle Wang Yong's factory. Some of them had turned yellow, and some had accidentally fallen to the ground and got dirty. They were all new, but they all had some problems. Another one was the inventory that had not been sold out this summer. Uncle Wang Yong packed them all together and sold them to Jiang Xiao at a price per kilogram.
Think about it, there are several pieces of summer clothes in a kilogram, but he only paid Jiang Xiao one yuan per kilogram.
Jiang Xiao could make a lot of money even if he sold the defective clothes at 9.9, 6.9, or 5.9 yuan.
But Jiang Bai didn't know all this. He only knew that if he didn't sell out the goods in the store, the school would have winter vacation. If he delayed until after the New Year, the winter clothes would not be sold.
Who would buy new clothes after the New Year?
He opened the store at seven o'clock. There were not many people in the store at this time. The neighbors nearby had already bought their clothes. The market was basically full. The students of Wuzhong were also eating breakfast in the cafeteria and did not come out.
Jiang Bai waited and waited until eight o'clock. The students of Wuzhong began to walk out of the school gate in groups of three or two. He took out Jiang Bai's tape recorder and loudspeaker, put them at the door, and pressed the play button.
