The incident of acting bravely and righteously has had a significant impact on Shen Qingqing.
When the flag was raised on Monday morning, Principal Mo removed the part where she personally participated, leaving only the part about discovering the bad guys and cleverly informing the teachers, which led to the police rescuing the students who were almost kidnapped. She then gave a very strong commendation to all the teachers and students of Wangling Elementary School.
They even made her stand on the flagpole to receive praise, so that all the teachers and students could see her.
This situation, where she was facing social embarrassment head-on, made Shen Qingqing so embarrassed that she wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.
For the next two whole days, she was subjected to intimidating stares whenever someone passed by.
Shen Qingqing got used to the awkwardness, and on Wednesday afternoon after school, she politely declined Chen Man's invitation to wait for her to go home together, telling her that she was going to the principal's office to see a teacher.
Chen Man expressed her regret, waved, and left.
Shen Qingqing carried her schoolbag upstairs and headed straight for the principal's office.
The second-grade Chinese teacher and Mr. Zesong were already waiting for her in the principal's office.
"You're here?" Teacher Zesong was making tea when he saw Shen Qingqing come in and poured her a cup.
However, Shen Qingqing couldn't drink tea; it would cause her insomnia, so she could only wave her hand and say she couldn't drink it.
"Alright, the test papers are already laid out over there for you. There's one Chinese test paper and one math test paper. You have an hour and a half. We'll time you. Grab your pen and go over to start." Teacher Zesong didn't insist. He pointed to the test papers on his desk and told Shen Qingqing to go over.
Shen Qingqing put down her schoolbag and took her pencil case separately.
After receiving the test paper, Shen Qingqing noticed that there were several questions at the back that she hadn't learned this semester, but she wasn't sure if they were from next semester or second grade.
After all, the memories were from so long ago that she couldn't remember when she learned some of the basic knowledge.
However, Shen Qingqing did not ask any questions and simply completed everything step by step.
She thought about it and figured it was probably a test the teachers were giving her to see if she could really skip directly to the third grade.
Shen Qingqing didn't mind showing it off early, so she finished in less than half an hour.
"Teacher, I'm done." Shen Qingqing put down her pen and raised her hand to signal to the two teachers.
Chen Zesong was still chatting and drinking tea with the second-grade Chinese teacher when he didn't expect Shen Qingqing to finish so quickly.
Chen Zesong, in particular, was extremely surprised after glancing at the time, because Shen Qingqing hadn't been able to answer questions this quickly during the previous Chinese unit test.
These are two test papers. One side of each paper contains first-grade material, and the other side contains second-grade material.
Although the questions were relatively simple for second graders and had some connection to first graders, they were still beyond the curriculum for Shen Qingqing at her current level.
Chen Zesong and the second-grade Chinese teacher exchanged a glance, then stood up together and walked to the principal's desk. They each took a red pen from the pen holder on the desk, picked up a test paper, and began grading.
Shen Qingqing packed up her pencil case and put it back in her schoolbag, then sat quietly on the single sofa to wait for the results.
The result, of course, was still two perfect scores.
After Chen Zesong finished grading the papers with the second-grade Chinese teacher, the smile on his face told Shen Qingqing the result without him even saying a word.
"Good, Qingqing, another perfect score! You've maintained that well, including answering all the second-grade questions correctly. That's really impressive. Have you studied the second-grade textbook at home?" the second-grade Chinese teacher asked kindly.
Shen Qingqing gave an ambiguous answer: "I have seen it."
How can watching it in a past life not count as having watched it before?
The two teachers exchanged a glance and concluded that she must have studied at home on her own.
"It's good that you've seen it. Although you'll still be in first grade next semester, you can look at more second-grade books. When the semester ends, we'll do the second-grade final exam directly. If you pass, you'll go to third grade with the second-grade students, okay?" the second-grade Chinese teacher said.
Shen Qingqing nodded obediently, indicating that she understood.
After finishing the exam, passing the grading, and having said everything that needed to be said, Shen Qingqing was finally allowed to go home.
Thursday is over, and it's time to head to the provincial capital for the semi-finals.
This time, the team was still led by teachers from Yanqi Elementary School. However, compared to the five people in the preliminary round, there were only three girls left in the semi-finals: Shen Qingqing, Ye Ziqi, and Wu Zeyi.
Although the number of participants decreased, Yanqi Primary School still sent three teachers to accompany them, the same three as last time.
The itinerary was the same as the preliminary round, but this time it wasn't as thrilling as the preliminary round.
Go smoothly and come back smoothly. Now we just wait for the provincial competition committee to release the final results.
As the year draws to a close, the weather gets colder and colder. Every morning when Shen Qingqing goes out, she feels a chill in her head and always likes to wear a hooded coat.
Li Xunli originally thought that the order for Zhang Hengyun would not be completed until very close to the end of the year, but unexpectedly, she picked up Chen Manyu as an apprentice and helper. Now, Chen Manyu can help Li Xunli make some very simple circular pendants.
There are two kilns in the porcelain kiln, one managed by Li Xunli and one by Chen Manyu, so they can operate simultaneously.
On the weekend when Shen Qingqing didn't have a competition, she heard that her mother would be able to finish the last batch of porcelain pendants that weekend.
Just then, she finished the first volume of the literacy handbook she was going to give to Chen Manyu. On Saturday, she got up early, huddled in her oversized down jacket, and rode her bicycle to the porcelain kiln.
As soon as he arrived and grasped the handle of the porcelain kiln to push the door open, he was given a sharp electric shock.
My entire fingertip was numb.
Chen Manyu ran out to see what was going on and saw Shen Qingqing covering her hand and about to walk inside.
"Aunt Li, Qingqing is here!" Chen Manyu turned his head and shouted into the kiln. When he turned around, he saw Shen Qingqing holding a small card book in front of him. He tilted his head, indicating that he was puzzled.
"Here you go! This is a small flashcard booklet I made for learning characters. You can learn to recognize characters by following the flashcards. You already know pinyin, so I've marked the pinyin for you. You can carry it with you and take it out to learn characters anytime, anywhere. Once you've memorized all the characters in this book, I'll give you the next one!" Shen Qingqing only stretched out two fingers to hold the string that tied the flashcard booklet together, not daring to fully expose her hands.
