Chapter 79 School Recruitment
Almost every weekend, Qiao Nan would give Zhu Baoguo a science test paper tailored to his situation.
"Oh." Zhu Baoguo, who had already gotten used to Qiao Nan's pattern, took out his pen very consciously and started doing the questions quickly. Mr. Li, who had gone downstairs under the pretext of getting some water, was very pleased to see this.
After the midterm exam, one can imagine how disappointed Mr. Li was when he saw that Zhu Baoguo had failed several test papers.
He knew clearly that his grandson had never studied well, and he told himself more than once that he let his grandson study with Qiao Nan just to make his grandson calm down and avoid getting into trouble all the time.
But at this moment, Mr. Li couldn't help but have expectations in his heart.
Unfortunately, imagination is beautiful and reality is cruel. The grandson's failed test paper was undoubtedly a slap in the face of the Zhu and Li families.
To this end, Mr. Li took some time to talk to Qiao Nan: "Nan Nan, what do you think of Bao Guo's studies? Can he keep up?"
"Grandpa Li, Zhu Baoguo is actually quite smart. It's not difficult for him to keep up with the progress. I estimate that starting next year, Zhu Baoguo's grades will be mostly visible." Qiao Nan said affirmatively.
Mr. Li smiled bitterly: "Nannan, you are still a child, don't talk to me like an adult, and you don't have to comfort me, just tell the truth. I have heard the results of Baoguo's midterm exam, and he didn't pass any of the subjects."
"Grandpa Li, I didn't comfort you. You don't know Zhu Baoguo's situation, so you only look at his score. In your eyes, Zhu Baoguo's midterm exam may be a failure, but in my eyes, it is no different from a perfect score."
"What do you mean?"
"Zhu Baoguo hardly went to school in junior high school. The knowledge he learned was not difficult. Zhu Baoguo learned quickly, but he certainly did not learn the knowledge in junior high school as quickly as he did. Zhu Baoguo got all the answers right on the test paper that I taught him. You expect Zhu Baoguo to get all the answers right for the questions he has not learned, and you also expect him to do too well in the exam. This is unrealistic." Qiao Nan was embarrassed: "Grandpa Li, you may not understand. Not to mention junior high school, even if he is still learning, if he breaks down the content of a certain year, he will not be able to learn the rest. Such students are easily given up by teachers. Zhu Baoguo has learned very quickly, and his IQ must be high."
"Grandpa Li, you didn't criticize Zhu Baoguo because of this midterm exam, did you? If so, Zhu Baoguo would be wronged."
"No, no." Mr. Li was stunned. He didn't expect that it was just a failing test paper, but there were so many tricks and knowledge involved.
It turns out that my grandson failed the test, which was not because he did badly, but because he did well: "Nannan, what you said is true, Baoguo is really that smart, if you were to grade this test, would you really give him 100 points?"
Mr. Li was not an open-minded old man. He didn't understand at first, but after listening to Qiao Nan's words, he understood it now.
"A perfect 100. If Zhu Baoguo had studied hard from beginning to end, his grades would not have been bad, and he would have been the kind of student that teachers like, who can understand things quickly. You know my situation, Grandpa Li, but I never felt that teaching Zhu Baoguo would take up too much of my time. Zhu Baoguo doesn't have to work hard to learn knowledge. Basically, after I teach him once, Zhu Baoguo will understand everything and he won't make any mistakes when doing the exercises."
Anyway, she had never been a teacher before, but she has never been in a bad mood since she taught Zhu Baoguo.
Which teacher doesn’t like students who can learn things easily after being taught?
When Mr. Li, who had just taken on the responsibility of being a grandfather, heard Qiao Nan's praise of Zhu Baoguo, he smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed: "Is Baoguo really that good?"
No, after Baoguo went to school, the teacher only had the role of reporting him. Didn’t the teacher ever praise Baoguo?
Come to think of it, it was always the people of the Zhu family who didn’t know how to take care of children. Look at how well Baoguo is being taken care of by the people of the Li family.
"Okay." Qiao Nan nodded. "In fact, Zhu Baoguo has a bit of a stubborn temper and is quite sensitive. Grandpa Li should understand the reason better than me. For someone like Zhu Baoguo, you have to be gentle and coax him. Don't always look at Zhu Baoguo with doubts, criticisms and disappointment. This is unfair and will make Zhu Baoguo rebellious. Grandpa Li, if you have time, go buy some books on youth psychology. I think Zhu Baoguo has a hard time."
"Haha." Mr. Li laughed. "You are a ghost. You talk in a very complicated way. You know more than me. What book? Youth psychology. OK, I will send someone to buy some books next time and take a look. Baoguo is not easy, but you are more difficult than Baoguo."
Through his grandson, Mr. Li naturally knew how much trouble Qiao Nan had caused by rescuing his grandson.
Thanks to the teacher's trust in Qiao Nan, otherwise Qiao Nan would have been criticized instead of praised in school.
"No, I think I'm fine now. My dad has been... Grandpa Li, thank you." Qiao Nan could feel that her father seemed to have tightened his control over her mother. Not only did her mother no longer let her do housework and keep her too busy to read, but more importantly, her mother would no longer scold her in front of her.
In this world, the only person who can suppress her mother is her father, but the only person who can make her father realize this is Mr. Li.
"Nannan, perhaps the best thing I have done for Baoguo is to find a teacher like you for him. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, don't be polite to grandpa, remember to come to see grandpa, understand?" Knowing that Ding Jiayi wanted to let Qiao Nannan go to school and work to earn money, Mr. Li knew that there might be more trouble for Qiao Nan.
"Thank you, Grandpa Li. But for Zhu Baoguo, as I just said to Grandpa Li, Grandpa Li can also be with the people of the Zhu family. You can't just pamper him, Zhu Baoguo needs affirmation more." It was after Qiao Nan said this that the two ended their conversation.
Mr. Li later thought carefully about what Qiao Nan said, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Qiao Nan was right.
Everyone has been young and foolish at one time. When Mr. Li thought about how he felt when he was young, he really understood what Qiao Nan meant.
Sure enough, even if the Zhu family and the Li family could not completely change their attitude towards Zhu Baoguo at once, it is undeniable that in such an atmosphere, Zhu Baoguo's temper has really improved. He is no longer grinning and glaring like before.
Mr. Li took a sip of the freshly brewed Biluochun tea comfortably, and went upstairs leisurely, so as not to disturb the two people's study.
When Qiao Nan returned home after tutoring Zhu Baoguo, she didn't see Qiao Zijin. Qiao Nan was not surprised, but Ding Jiayi was not at home either: "Dad, did mom send me to school?"
"No, the school called and asked your mom and your sister to go to the school together."
