Line up in order of height, sitting from the shortest to the tallest starting from the first row.
Needless to say, Zhou Xiang was ranked first in height, and the people standing next to her in first place were all taller than her.
Yes! I can’t stop eating milk and eggs. Come on, I must be taller than the 1.62 meters I was in my previous life.
As expected, Zhou Xiang and Xiao Chunmei became deskmates.
No. 1 Middle School has always been a middle school that everyone wants to get into. Every class has always been overcrowded. Single desks are no longer suitable, so they are replaced with double desks, with four double desks in a row, a total of eight rows, although there are only 54 students at present.
Zhou Xiang believed that the transfer students would gradually fill up the remaining desks in each classroom. Then, the distance between desks would gradually become more and more crowded. If students leaning against the wall wanted to leave, only those outside could stand up.
The first wave entered the classroom. After Xiao Chunmei took back her schoolbag, she started talking to Zhou Xiang.
"Hello, Zhou Xiang! My name is Xiao Chunmei."
"Hello! Xiao Chunmei."
"Your backpack is really nice. The zipper is very convenient. Where did you buy it?"
"The capital."
"Ah? You went to Beijing? Did you see Tiananmen Square? Did you climb the Great Wall?"
Before Zhou Xiang could answer, a slight hissing sound came from behind him.
"Sigh! A country bumpkin can go to the capital? If he hadn't participated in the competition, he probably wouldn't have even left Huai County, right?"
Zhou wanted to turn around and saw two girls sitting down diagonally behind him. One of them still had a sarcastic expression on her face.
"It's you! What? You don't want to continue following Mashasha around like a lapdog?"
Xiao Chunmei's eyes flashed with gossip, and she really wanted to know what "licking a dog" meant.
Wan Jing didn't understand what a bootlicker meant, but it was definitely not a good thing.
"You? Zhou Xiang, don't be so arrogant. Ma Shasha still remembers you."
"Remember me! I'm a person that everyone loves and flowers bloom when I see them. There are many people who remember me."
Xiao Chunmei chuckled. This week, she was so angry that she wanted to say something.
"Humph! Just be narcissistic! I'm waiting to see the day you get into trouble."
"Perhaps, you will never see that day, because there will never be such a day."
"Hmph!" Wan Jing had long known that Zhou Xiang had a sharp tongue, and since she couldn't win an argument with her, she stopped talking to her.
When Zhou wanted to turn around, Xiao Chunmei couldn't help but ask, "What does licking a dog mean?"
"A dog licker!" Zhou Xiang raised his voice. "It means following others and fawning over them. Like a dog, you desperately bark at people or things your master dislikes in order to please your master."
"Ah? So disgusting? Isn't he just a lackey?" Xiao Chunmei also didn't like Wan Jing's arrogant look. When she heard Zhou Xiang raise his voice, she cooperated very well and raised her voice in a surprised tone.
"Yes, that's about the same."
This Xiao Chunmei is very interesting. Maybe life in junior high school won’t be as boring as elementary school.
There was a sound of slamming the table from behind, but Zhou Xiang and Xiao Chunmei pretended not to hear it.
"By the way, you haven't told me whether you've been to the capital!"
Xiao Chunmei didn't believe Wan Jing's words. Zhou Xiang's clothes were not bad. What happened to the town? The living conditions seemed pretty good!
"I went there during Chinese New Year last year, so I didn't climb the Great Wall. But I did go to Tiananmen Square, and I even touched the base of the monument with my own hands!"
"real?"
"Of course it's real. I've never been inside the Forbidden City. At the time, I didn't have enough time and it was dark, so I took a look at Tiananmen Square on the north side of Chang'an Avenue."
"No, no, I still don't understand the relationship between the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square."
"Oh! Inside Tiananmen Square is the Forbidden City. It used to be called Chengtian Gate, but it was renamed after the founding of the People's Republic of China. So going to the Forbidden City is almost the same as going to Tiananmen Square. It just depends on whether you buy a ticket to get in."
"Oh! I finally understand. I used to think Tiananmen was Tiananmen and the Forbidden City was the Forbidden City. It turns out they're one and the same. Isn't your schoolbag quite expensive?"
"I don't know, I bought it with other things, probably dozens of dollars!"
For the first time, Zhou Xiang felt the urge to chat with a girl his own age. Xiao Chunmei was different from Li Li. Li Li had a childish temper, while Xiao Chunmei was steady yet lively. Zhou Xiang guessed that she must be the eldest child in the family.
"Huh? A schoolbag costs dozens of yuan, which is an adult's monthly salary."
"It's not actually a school bag, it's called an outdoor sports backpack, so it's a bit expensive."
“It looks very comfortable to carry.”
"Yeah! Everything about outdoor sports must be comfortable and effortless."
The students outside came in one after another, and Ran Qiming walked up to the podium.
"Now we will begin the election of class leaders. Each student can nominate a classmate you think is suitable, or you can nominate yourself."
The students below began to raise their hands to nominate candidates. Xiao Chunmei was about to raise her hand, but was held back by Zhou Xiang.
He asked softly, "Are you planning to recommend yourself?"
Xiao Chunmei shook her head, and Zhou Xiang also shook his head.
Xiao Chunmei gave up.
There are many students in the county town, many of whom are acquaintances or even classmates. Everyone knows each other, so they nominate people for their previous positions in elementary school.
Soon, Dai Dong and Li Zongmei, who came in second, became the class monitor and deputy class monitor.
Liu Zhongfan, who came in third, is the study committee member, Li Manman is the arts committee member, Zou Xiaohong is the health committee member, and Xue Zhendong is the sports committee member.
Ran Qiming's face turned ugly. "I want to know, why can't you see the first place? Are you discriminating against the country students?"
The class immediately fell silent. Xiao Chunmei had been unhappy for a long time, but she felt better after hearing what Teacher Ran said.
"Don't you need me to repeat myself? I want to know the reason. I won't force the outcome to change. I just want to know if you're discriminating against me."
After a moment of silence, the physical education committee member Xue Zhendong stood up.
"Teacher Ran, we're not discriminating between urban and rural areas. It's mainly because Zhou Xiang actually accepted an exclusive interview with the provincial TV station and ditched the municipal TV station. We kind of look down on her. That's discrimination!"
Ran Qiming wiped the blackboard and asked, "Who said that?"
"Big, that's what everyone says."
"Whoever said that, please stand up. I want to see who is slandering you behind your back. Hurry up! Whether school is dismissed today or not is up to you."
About twenty students immediately stood up in the classroom. Well, the five students tied for second and third place were among them.
"Have you watched the provincial TV news?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"Oh! You're all watching yourselves on TV. Who did you hear that from? Let me find the source."
Everyone called out their names, and finally Li Jinghong mentioned Wan Jing.
"Wan Jing? She seems to be a student in our class. Who is she? Why doesn't she stand up?"
Wan Jing was scared when she heard that Teacher Ran was looking for the source, and sure enough, she found it in herself. When she heard Ran Qiming call her name, she immediately stood up and said, "I am Wan Jing."
"Come on, tell me! Why?"
Wan Jing stammered, "I, I also heard it from my uncle."
"Who is your uncle?"
"Deng Hongbin, a reporter from the city TV station."
