lyrical essay
After crying, Tong Yun was obviously alive again and ate more at night. Du Yunyan said to her, "That's right."
"Thank you, Auntie, for taking me in. I'm fine now." She said sensibly.
Du Yunyan pushed the plate towards her and said, "If you want to eat Auntie's cooking in the future, just come and visit us. We welcome you anytime."
"Sister, this is for you." Tang Muchen ran out of the room and handed a big paper star in his hand to Tong Yun.
The world of children is very simple. If you want a star, I will make one for you.
Tong Yun patted his head and said, "Thank you."
Tang Muchen liked the beautiful sister, her face suddenly turned red, and she said shyly: "You're welcome."
He climbed onto the dining table and was about to pick up the chopsticks when Du Yunyan saw that his hands were dirty and pulled his ear. "Have you washed your hands? I've told you so many times to wash your hands before eating."
"Mom, please give me some face." Tang Muchen covered her mouth with his hand and said in a low voice.
The area around Du Yunyan's mouth turned black, and she immediately got angry. "You covered my mouth with your dirty hands. You want to be beaten, right?"
Tang Muchen waved his hands and pretended to be pitiful, then quickly jumped off the dining table to wash his hands.
Lin Luo and Tong Yun watched from the side and were amused.
It's time to go to school tomorrow, but Lin Luo hasn't done any of her homework yet. Tong Yun didn't bring any homework back, so she went to bed because she was tired, and Lin Luo had to stay up late to finish her homework.
It rained again in the evening. Tong Yun murmured in his sleep: "Grandma, don't go..."
There was still a composition assignment to be done, so Lin Luo took her notebook to the windowsill and thought about it while listening to the rain.
After finishing writing, it was already early morning, the rain had stopped, the city was submerged in darkness, and everything around was silent. Lin Luo turned on a light for herself, which was the light from her mobile phone screen.
She missed Lin Dayong. "Dad, are you doing well abroad? You're all alone in a strange place, so you must take care of yourself. I hope you can come back healthy."
[By the way, I was thinking about my grandparents today. Didn't you say that they spent several days looking through the dictionary to find my name?]
Actually, I didn't like this name when I was little because my classmates would call me a tigress. You told me that '婋' means a beautiful and intelligent woman, but I didn't understand it at the time. Now I think it's a really good name. Thank you for giving me 'Lin婋'.
I miss them, and I miss you too.
Lin Luo looked out the window at the sky, where a few stars were twinkling. She smiled and said softly, "Good night."
The three days of vacation were so short that it seemed like a dream. No one seemed to have recovered. When Lin Luo arrived at the classroom, it was like a vegetable market with chaos everywhere.
A completed test paper is like a rare treasure, scrambled for by many hands. Those who get the paper are like generals who have won the battle, and they proudly share their holiday experiences while copying.
Fu Xingchuan hadn't arrived yet. Zhu Changyu was sitting in his seat. He was just looking for a test paper to copy, so he aimed at her and said, "Lin Xiao, please help me. Lend me your math test paper so I can copy it."
Lin Xiao returned to her seat and took out the math test paper and handed it to him. "What I wrote may not be correct."
"It doesn't matter, as long as there's copying, I'm not picky."
Lin Luo heard the rustling of pens behind him, and then he asked, "Is Tong Yun okay?"
"Much better, you've been a great help." She said without turning around, looking at the noisy crowd.
"Does Tong Yun like my singing?"
Lin Luo thought about it. She hadn't explicitly expressed her love for him, but she asked Lin Luo to send the audio to her. Lin Luo thought she must like him, so she said to Zhu Changyu, "I like him."
"What do you like?" A clear voice sounded in her ears. Lin Luo turned her head slightly and saw Fu Xingchuan sitting in his seat with a smile on his face, and Zhu Changyu sitting in Ruan Ye's seat copying her test paper.
A faint blush appeared on Lin Luo's face.
"Oh, she said Tong Yun likes my singing. Well! There's nothing I can do, I'm just so charming." Zhu Changyu said narcissistically.
"Who is Tong Yun? Is there something wrong with his ears?" Fu Xingchuan asked lazily, supporting his head with his hands.
Zhu Changyu glared at him and said with gritted teeth, "Tong Yun, you don't even know the school beauty! You are so ignorant."
"Oh." Fu Xingchuan didn't pay attention to his words and looked at Lin Luo. She seemed to have something to say, and Fu Xingchuan was waiting for her to speak.
Lin Luo really wanted to ask him why he asked Tang Muchen not to bully her, whether it was simply because he was kind-hearted or for some other reason, but she hadn't thought of the words yet, and swallowed them back.
At this time, Xu Yangyang came in. She looked listless, so Lin Luo's attention shifted to her first. "Yangyang, what happened? Are you not having fun out there?"
"Don't mention it. I didn't go out at all. The monthly exam results came out on the first day of vacation. I took the exam during my period, and I had stomach pains and was in a bad state. I regressed a lot. When my mom saw it, she locked me up at home to study and didn't let me go out. She even confiscated my phone."
"I haven't even contacted Fang Shao yet. I don't know if he's mad at me."
It’s over, Lin Luo forgot about the monthly exam results.
"Have you looked for me?" Xu Yangyang asked.
"Yeah." Lin Luo felt it necessary to tell Xu Yangyang, "Tong Yun's grandmother passed away."
"When did this happen?" she panicked.
Lin Luo held her hand and said, "On the day of the math test."
"Has he been buried?"
"Well, I'll stay with her."
"How could this happen? I didn't even accompany you to see her off for the last time." Xu Yangyang couldn't accept it for a moment, and cried silently with her hands covering her face.
Zhu Changyu handed her a piece of paper from behind, and Lin Qiao patted her back to comfort her.
Ruan Ye came and saw Zhu Changyu sitting in his seat. He asked word by word, "Why are you sitting in my seat?"
He had a cold face, and Zhu Changyu was a little scared. Fu Xingchuan happened to be a little unhappy and replied to him: "I told him to sit here."
Zhu Changyu smelled a gunpowder smell and was about to get up and go back to his seat when Ruan Ye held him down, "Then you sit down! I'll go to your seat."
"What did you do to him? He has been very obedient to you recently?" Zhu Changyu suspected that they had a fight behind his back, and Ruan Ye surrendered to him because of that.
"Nothing?"
"Then he must have other intentions towards you. Be careful and don't let your house be robbed." Zhu Changyu reminded him.
Fu Xingchuan felt annoyed and didn't take it seriously.
It was the first evening study session, and the monthly exam results hadn't been posted yet. Lin Luo felt a little uneasy. Xia Hongying checked and corrected some Chinese homework and called Lin Luo into her office.
"Your composition is outrageous. It's clearly an argumentative essay, but you wrote it as a lyrical piece."
"Although some parts are quite good, like the quote 'The tree wants to be still, but the wind does not stop; the son wants to support his parents, but they are no longer there,' our exam only tests argumentative essays. Take it back and rewrite it."
"Okay." Lin Luo took it and wanted to leave.
Xia Hongying didn't finish her words, "But your handwriting has improved a lot. It makes my eyes feel much more comfortable. You deserve praise. You should do the same during exams."
"Yeah." Lin Luo stood up straighter.
"Go ahead!" Lin Luo was about to say hello when Cheng Kaizhong came in with a piece of red paper. Seeing her, he said sternly, "Lin Luo, come here. I have something to tell you."
She slowly moved over, and Cheng Kaizhong showed her the report card first.
She saw Fu Xingchuan at the top of the paper. He was still number one in the grade. She instinctively moved her gaze to the bottom, but it wasn't her name. She looked for it and clicked a little higher:
He is the eighth from the bottom in the class, ranked 588th in the grade, and scored 71 points in math.
She breathed a sigh of relief and felt that she had made great progress, but Cheng Kaizhong looked very bad, and she didn't know why?
"What do you think after seeing the results?" Cheng Kaizhong asked.
"I've made progress overall, but this time in math..." She wanted to say that she was affected and didn't perform to her full potential, but Cheng Kaizhong immediately interrupted her: "Yes, the problem lies in math. Do you think I'm unhappy with you?"
"No, I didn't." Lin Luo didn't want to be accused by him, so she quickly denied it.
"Then why are you doing so badly in math even though you've made progress in other subjects? Have you ever thought about that?"
Lin didn't know the specific reason, but simply said, "Because I haven't worked hard enough in math."
At the same time, Tong Yun and Fu Xingchuan entered the office one after another. Tong Yun was holding a physics exercise book in his hand, probably to ask questions, while Fu Xingchuan was there to deliver a homework book to Xia Hongying.
Looking around the office, Teacher Guo wasn't there. Tong Yun smiled at Lin Qiao and was about to leave when her homeroom teacher, Ding Wenxin, called her over. "Tong Yun, what's wrong? Who are you looking for in the office?"
Ding Wenxin's voice was very gentle, and Fu Xingchuan looked back when he heard the name.
Lin Luo looked over there. Cheng Kaizhong slammed his hand on the table and said loudly, "You're wrong. It's because you haven't found the right method and you don't pay attention in class. You're not smart to begin with, and you only use stupid methods to study, so your grades won't improve."
She looked at Cheng Kaizhong and accepted his lecture, but no matter how loud he spoke, Lin Luo could hear the conversation over there.
"I came to see Mr. Guo. I have some questions for him."
"Are you okay now?" Ding Wenxin asked carefully.
"Um."
"Great!" she praised Tong Yun.
There were no other physics teachers in the office. She saw Fu Xingchuan looking at them and asked, "Fu Xingchuan, can you teach her a physics problem?"
"Sure," he said.
"It's been almost two months, how come you can only get such a low score? You've dragged down our class average, and the director even suspects there's something wrong with my teaching. How ridiculous! If it were my fault, how come Fu Xingchuan and Ruan Ye got full marks? You can't even get 90 points."
As Cheng Kaizhong was speaking, Lin Luo glanced to the other side. Fu Xingchuan was teaching Tong Yun a physics problem. Tong Yun would interrupt him and ask questions when she didn't understand. She would almost always understand the problem immediately and would even come up with another solution of her own.
Fu Xingchuan listened quietly and guided her patiently.
Lin Luo envied her. Her previous poor grades were simply because she didn't put all her energy into studying. If she hadn't missed the exam this time, her grades would definitely have improved greatly compared to the last monthly exam.
But what Cheng Kaizhong said about her was right. She only knew how to study using stupid methods and had not really learned to integrate knowledge. So when she was disturbed in the exam room, her brain would shut down and her rhythm would be disrupted and she couldn't get it back.
"I heard that we are going to shoot a promotional video for the school anniversary. The director said they need to find two people, one male and one female, with good looks. I think these two would be good." A female teacher opposite suddenly said, interrupting Lin Luo's thoughts.
She looked at Tong Yun and Fu Xingchuan again. Fu Xingchuan bent over to calculate on paper. Tong Yun leaned close to him to look at the steps he wrote. Their heads were almost touching.
Another female teacher replied, "Handsome men and beautiful women, that's really great. Promotional videos should show such beautiful moments of youth. Let's talk to the director about it when he comes back."
"Um."
Lin Luo pinched herself, and an inexplicable feeling of unease came over her again.
