Chapter 144
The winter vacation passed in the blink of an eye, and Ye Jiayin returned to Nancheng the day before school started.
She lay powerlessly on the bed, looking at Su Miao who was helping her pack her luggage, and said, "My mother is really the most energetic middle-aged woman I have ever seen. She got her driver's license some time ago, and this time she insisted on driving back by herself.
They said you could walk and play at the same time. Wow! I left ten days ago and I just got here now after rushing so hard! My butt is numb from sitting so hard.
Su Miao smiled and said, "Aunt Ye is really brave. The interprovincial highway is sometimes good and sometimes bad, so it's really hard to travel. I hope you didn't travel at night. I heard that the road is not safe after dark."
"I didn't rush before, but two days later I couldn't make it in time, so I drove overnight. Nothing happened, and my mom was carrying a gun!"
Su Miao said in surprise: "Aunt Ye has a gun?"
"Yes, my mother often has to go to places with tough folk customs to collect folk songs, so her unit has issued her with a gun, and she has a gun license."
Su Miao nodded in understanding. The complete ban on guns was implemented in 1996. Before that, many individuals and organizations owned guns, especially some organizations that issued guns to special positions.
However, if the unit issues guns, there will be strict records, and employees who carry guns will also need to be certified.
At this time, Ye Han's image in Su Miao's mind became even more handsome.
Ye Jiayin got up and took out a purple velvet bag from the suitcase and handed it to Su Miao: "I didn't know what to bring you, so I bought some Beijing-style souvenirs. I hope you can come to Beijing to visit in the future. Of course, it would be even better if you can come to study at university."
There are ten commemorative medals in the velvet bag. The medals have a pin that can be pinned on clothes. The pin is connected to a name tag with the name of the tourist attraction written on it.
Under the nameplate hangs a pendant of various shapes, made entirely of metal, with classic scenes of the tourist attractions printed on it.
The Great Wall commemorative badge is in the shape of a heart with the majestic Great Wall inside.
The memorial badge is a five-pointed star with the words "Memorial Hall of the Great Man" printed on it.
The Xiangshan commemorative badge is in the shape of a maple leaf and is printed with red leaves all over the mountain.
…
These commemorative badges are sold at tourist attractions. It is not easy to buy so many different ones! It can be seen that Ye Jiayin put a lot of thought into it.
"Sister Jiayin! I love these medals! Thank you!"
"I'm glad you like it. I originally wanted to bring back some dim sum and roast duck, but the journey was too long and I was afraid they would spoil along the way, so I didn't bring any."
"It's okay, Sister Jiayin. If there's a chance, my dad and I will go to the capital to have a look. We'll be able to eat it then!"
"Yeah, that's right, special snacks have to be eaten locally to taste the real thing!"
The next day was the first day of school, and Su Miao and Ye Jiayin made an appointment to go to school together as usual.
From today on, the two officially became classmates. As a new classmate, Su Miao had to go to the office to report to the head teacher, so Ye Jiayin went to the classroom first.
During class, Mr. Wu, the head teacher of the third-year training team, brought Su Miao to the classroom and introduced him to the classmates.
"Everyone, we have a new student this semester, Su Miao. Su Miao passed the advanced placement test and joined our junior high school training team. From now on, she will prepare for the high school entrance exam with everyone. Please welcome her with applause."
There was intense applause in the classroom, but Su Miao noticed that the classmates had different expressions. Some were friendly and welcoming, some were full of curiosity, and some seemed dissatisfied with it, and even rolled their eyes secretly. It seemed that her arrival might have broken some kind of balance.
"Alright, in order not to disrupt the class, let's use our spare time to get to know each other. Su Miao, your seat is over there by the window, come sit over there."
Teacher Wu pointed to the seat assigned to Su Miao, which was on both sides of the classroom with Ye Jiayin.
Su Miao walked to his seat and sat down, putting his schoolbag in the drawer.
The training team's courses are faster than those of other classes. All the new courses were completed last semester, so there is no need to distribute new books.
After Su Miao successfully skipped a grade, the Academic Affairs Office gave her all the textbooks for the second and third grades free of charge, allowing her to study on her own during the holidays so that she could keep up with the pace when school started.
Teacher Wu is a Chinese teacher. Today she will start to review all the knowledge points from the first grade of junior high school.
At this time, Su Miao took out his third-year junior high school textbook and planned to memorize classical Chinese texts.
Then I suddenly found two small lines of words written on the upper left corner of the desk:
Where there is a will, there is a way.
If we burn our boats and cross the river, we can climb to the top of Kunlun Mountain tomorrow.
The handwriting is beautiful, and I think it was left by an ambitious senior sister.
This little discovery excited Su Miao, and he began to review without distraction.
"Student Su Miao, the teacher is already reviewing the first grade knowledge today. Why are you still reading the third grade book? Is it because you haven't laid a solid foundation yet?"
Suddenly, a female classmate on Su Miao's right spoke in a loud voice, as if reminding Su Miao that he had picked up the wrong book, but the meaning behind her words made people feel something was not right.
Sure enough, her voice attracted the attention of the teacher and classmates. Some students started talking about it, saying that Teacher Wu disliked students who did not have a solid foundation and wanted to skip grades just because of a temporary extraordinary performance. Now he might be dissatisfied with Su Miao.
Some students also think that even in such a situation, it would be better to just remind them quietly. Saying it out loud in public is like complaining and is not polite.
Ye Jiayin looked at the female classmate who was speaking and frowned.
Teacher Wu stopped writing on the blackboard, turned around and looked in Su Miao's direction. He said in a calm tone, "Zhang Qi, since Su Miao has just been promoted from the first grade, she is already very familiar with the first semester of the first grade. It would be a waste of time for her to follow our tutorial, so I allow her to review at her own pace, not only for Chinese, but also for other subjects."
After saying that, he turned around and continued his lecture.
Su Miao's skipping grade test paper was the only one in the whole school. The difficulty of the questions was exactly in line with the standards for the high school entrance examination, but she actually got full marks!
Even if we select the best students from the current training team, it would be difficult to achieve such results.
Teacher Wu is not a pedantic person. She understands the principle of teaching students in accordance with their aptitude and individual differences. Different trees require different planting methods. Therefore, she has already communicated with the school leaders and teachers of various subjects.
After hearing this, Zhang Qi nodded slightly to show his understanding, then turned to Su Miao and said with a smile, "So that's how it is. Then, classmate Su, you should work hard."
In the eyes of others, her calm attitude seemed to indicate that she was just giving a kind reminder.
But Su Miao was keenly aware of her true emotions hidden beneath her calm exterior. Zhang Qi noticeably increased the force of the pen in her hand. If the textbook paper had not been of high quality, it might have been torn long ago.
Su Miao shook her head helplessly. The tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop. It is true that where there are people, there is struggle. It seems that it will be difficult for her to spend the first half of the third year of junior high school peacefully without being disturbed by troubles.
