Chapter 467 Betting
Wang Weimin stopped what he was doing only when he heard that she needed his help with something.
He realized that this female comrade deliberately wanted him to accept the things, but she used the excuse of needing his help to avoid embarrassing him.
He silently kept this favor in his heart and would definitely repay it if he had the chance in the future.
"Okay, I'll definitely help if I can."
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and then said, "I'm also going to take the college entrance exam next year, but I'm a little lacking in math. Comrade Wang, if you have any suitable materials, I'd like to borrow them from you."
"Of course."
Wang Weimin admires students who are willing to learn, especially female comrades. In this era, the only mission of women seems to be to get married and have children. Only more open-minded families will let girls go to school.
In traditional thinking, boys are responsible for carrying on the family line and bringing honor to the ancestors, while girls have only one mission: to carry on the family line.
He has been teaching for so many years and has seen many talented girls, but unfortunately they were all buried by their parents' words: "Girls will get married sooner or later, there is no need for them to study so much."
This female comrade is not only kind-hearted, but also very motivated. Wang Weimin looked at Su Xiaoxiao with even more admiration.
"Wait a minute, I teach math, and I happen to have a lot of math tutorial books with me."
As Wang Weimin spoke, he began to open the woven bag and search inside. After a while, he took out three thick books and stuffed them into Su Xiaoxiao's hands.
Su Xiaoxiao looked down and saw that these three books had been read many times. There were dense annotations between the pages, and many of the loose pages had been carefully sewn with clumsy needle and thread. The covers were also carefully wrapped with newspapers, and it was obvious that the books were well taken care of.
"Thank you, Comrade Wang. I'll get off at Hai City and I'll have almost finished reading it by then. I'll give it back to you before I get off."
It was obvious that this book was used very carefully. Su Xiaoxiao didn't want to take it away from others, so she thought that she could use the camera function in the game to record it while reading.
She reads very quickly, and it will take about seven or eight hours to get to Hai City, so it shouldn't be a problem.
Wang Weimin was stunned when he heard this. Each of these three books has at least four or five hundred pages. How could he memorize them all in seven or eight hours?
Even if you just browse through it, you may not be able to finish it.
This little girl was really just making up an excuse to give him something.
He quickly said, "Don't be so nervous. I've given you this book. I've already read it all and have memorized it all."
"How could I be so embarrassed? This tutorial book is so valuable. I'm so lucky to be able to borrow it. Don't worry, I'm a fast reader."
After Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking, as if to confirm her statement, she lowered her head and began to read. In a short while, she had flipped through more than ten pages.
Seeing her like this, Wang Weimin thought that this girl was probably just pretending, and he would persuade her to accept the book when she returned it.
The college entrance examination has just been opened, and there are not many review materials on the market.
The review materials that Su Xiaoxiao got were comprehensive across various subjects, and the math section wasn't as detailed.
She was right about one thing. Although she was a science student in modern times, her mathematics was relatively weak.
She chose science because it was easier to find a job with science and engineering majors. In fact, she was better at liberal arts.
However, there is one thing that Su Xiaoxiao is very confident about, that is, she has a very good memory. To exaggerate a little, she can basically remember everything she sees.
Su Xiaoxiao read intently, quickly finishing a book. She returned it to Wang Weimin: "Comrade Wang, I've memorized everything in this book. Please put it away."
Wang Weimin: “…”
Although this little girl was indeed reading the book seriously the whole time, it was only less than two hours, and she only skimmed through the book. How could she possibly remember everything?
Before he could open his mouth, a sarcastic voice rang out from the side: "You little girl, you're not afraid of getting your tongue tangled when you brag. How long has it taken you to memorize it? You probably didn't even memorize the entire first page."
The person who spoke was the old lady who had not taken advantage of the situation just now.
Just now, Su Xiaoxiao's half-eaten sorghum steamed bread almost knocked out her front teeth, and now she looked at Su Xiaoxiao with displeasure in her eyes.
Su Xiaoxiao turned her head and looked at the old lady puzzledly: "How do you know I didn't remember it?"
The old lady snorted coldly, "My grandson is one of the top students in the class. The teachers all praise him for his intelligence. It would take him at least ten days or half a month to memorize such a thick book. How could a little girl like you possibly have such ability?"
Su Xiaoxiao had the urge to roll her eyes: "If your grandson can't remember, you can only say he is stupid. If he is stupid, he should practice more. What kind of skill is questioning others?"
The old lady was immediately displeased when she heard this: "How could my grandson be stupid? It's you, a little girl, who just said you remembered it without thinking. Fine, if you can remember it, then show us a lesson right here!"
The old woman glared at Su Xiaoxiao and said, "If you really memorize everything in this book, I'll give you five dollars, no, ten dollars. If you lose, give me ten dollars. How about that?"
Su Xiaoxiao: “…”
Is there anyone here looking for a hammer?
I can’t say anything else, but she is very confident about her memory.
She immediately responded: "That's what you said."
Wang Weimin was a little confused. No, how could this be a bet?
He thought he had a pretty good memory and didn't dare to make such a guarantee.
It took him more than a week to memorize the entire book, which still shocked several teachers in his office.
He wanted to persuade Su Xiaoxiao: "Comrade Su, and this lady, I think we should forget about the bet. It's not convenient to conduct an assessment in this car."
"Why should I let it go? I think you're all in the same group. This little girl has already agreed. Hurry up and stop wasting time, or just admit defeat and pay the money."
The old woman was convinced that Su Xiaoxiao didn't have that ability, and she felt even more justified.
Isn't this little girl crazy?
Let’s see how she continues to act wildly.
"Comrade Wang, please help me..."
As soon as Su Xiaoxiao opened her mouth, the old woman immediately became unhappy: "You can't let him come. You two are in the same group. Maybe he will let you go."
As she spoke, she looked at the gray-haired old man sitting next to her, wearing glasses and a Mao suit, and said, "Old comrade, you look like a learned man. Please come over and help me."
The old woman was reading a book. Upon hearing this, she turned the book upside down on the table and looked over. "Old sister, what's going on?"
He speaks politely and courteously, and looks like a well-educated person.
The old woman then briefly told him about the bet they had just made.
When the old man heard that Su Xiaoxiao had finished reading and memorizing a thick math book in less than two hours, he immediately became interested: "No problem, I'll be the temporary examiner."
