"Big cousin, as long as you promise me to study hard with me, Tiantian will definitely find a way to improve your and second cousin's grades!"
Pei Tiantian blinked her grape eyes and looked at him pleadingly.
Pei Zihao was somewhat reluctant. He didn't want to study at all. He couldn't understand those books at all.
But he saw that Pei Tianyu and Pei Tiantian were staring at him, as if they would not give up until he agreed.
He said reluctantly: "Then...then let's give it a try."
After successfully convincing the two people, Pei Tiantian finally felt a little relieved.
As long as they are willing, she will find a way to improve their grades.
Pei Tiantian was about to leave when she suddenly thought of something, "Big cousin and second cousin, keep the 500 yuan for yourselves. I don't need any gifts."
Pei Tiantian thought that the gifts Pei Zihao and Pei Tianyu wanted to buy her would probably be dolls or something like that.
She is not a real five-year-old child, so there is no need to buy so many dolls. Why waste the money?
"No, this is the money we earned specifically for you, so we have to spend it on you."
Pei Tiantian was helpless, "If the brothers must buy me something, then buy me tutoring books for grades one to six."
Pei Zihao and Pei Tianyu nodded.
They thought Pei Tiantian was using it for her own study.
I never thought that this set of tutoring books would end up being used on them.
The next morning, Pei Zhiwen took Pei Tiantian and others to school.
Pei Zhiqiang was the last one to go out. He was about to go out to work in the fields with a hoe. As soon as he came down from the dam at home, he bumped into a strange man wearing a black coat, black-framed glasses, and carrying a suitcase in his hand.
I saw the strange man looking around with a confused look on his face.
Pei Zhiqiang knew he was not from the village as soon as he saw his clothes. He asked, "Brother, are you looking for someone?"
The man turned around and said, "Yes, may I ask if you know where Mr. Pei Zhiwen lives?"
"What do you want from my brother?"
"Pei Zhiwen is your elder brother?" The man smiled. "Great, is your elder brother at home now? I want to see him."
Pei Zhiqiang shook his head and wondered if this man came to see his eldest brother specifically for some urgent matter.
So he said, "My eldest brother has gone to work in town and won't be back until the evening. Brother, come with me to the house and wait for him."
"Thank you for your help," said the man.
"fine."
Pei Zhiqiang took the man back home.
The two chatted for a while on the way.
Pei Zhiqiang then realized that this man was Xing Weigang, the editor-in-chief of Story Collection.
It was the magazine that Pei Tiantian submitted her article to.
Xing Weigang was very generous in his speech and behavior, so Pei Zhiqiang couldn't help but have a better impression of him.
But he was still very curious why Xing Weigang came to them in person.
"Is there something wrong with the manuscript?"
"There's nothing wrong with the manuscript, it's great. I just want to meet Mr. Pei Zhiwen and talk to him."
Pei Zhiqiang was a little confused, then he smiled and said, "Editor-in-Chief Xing, you may be wrong. The manuscript was not written by my eldest brother."
Xing Weigang seemed to be surprised. "No? I saw that the sender was Pei Zhiwen. Could it be that the contributor named Anonymous is not him?"
"Really not. Anonymous is the pen name of my niece Pei Tiantian. She is still a student. My eldest brother just helped her mail it to the magazine."
"I see. It seems I misunderstood."
Xing Weigang nodded.
I didn’t expect that Anonymous was just a student.
In an instant, the image of a teenage middle school student emerged in Xing Weigang's mind.
This also made Xing Weigang more eager to see Pei Tiantian.
He was very curious about how Pei Tiantian, a student, knew so many strange things and even wrote them into her novel.
Pei Tiantian didn't know that Xing Weigang had come directly to her house to find her.
At this moment, she was looking through the papers that Pei Zihao and Pei Tianyu had done before, intending to develop a special plan to transform Pei Zihao and Pei Tianyu based on their weaknesses.
Pei Tiantian looked through all their papers and found that they couldn't answer many questions. It wasn't because they didn't know how to do them, but because they simply couldn't understand the questions. Ultimately, it was a problem of comprehension ability.
There are two consecutive math classes in the morning.
After Ma Xiangdong finished explaining the questions, he assigned a few math problems for everyone to do.
Then he patrolled the class with his hands behind his back to see how everyone was doing.
After walking around the classroom and seeing that everyone had a good grasp of this knowledge point, Ma Xiangdong wrote an extended math problem on the blackboard.
Pei Tiantian looked up and saw that it was an elementary school math Olympiad problem about planting trees.
"This is a famous elementary school math problem. Are there any students who want to try it?"
The first person to raise his hand was Ding Qiang. He walked up confidently and counted the number on the blackboard, and the result was 80.
After finishing writing and putting down the chalk, Ding Qiang waited for Ma Xiangdong to praise him.
After all, most people have never seen this kind of math problem.
He has learned it specifically and will never make a mistake.
"Ding Qiang, please go down."
Ding Qiang: “?”
Not getting the expected praise, Ding Qiang returned to his seat somewhat confused.
Ma Xiangdong spoke again: "Is there anyone willing to come up and do the questions?"
"Brother Gu Rong, you go."
Pei Tiantian saw that Gu Rong had already calculated the correct answer in his notebook, so she urged him to go up.
Ma Xiangdong also heard the sound and smiled, "Then let Gu Rong come up and do it."
Gu Rong went up and quickly wrote a line of formula, and then came up with the answer, which was 160 trees.
Ma Xiangdong smiled with satisfaction: "Yes, the correct answer is 160 trees. Gu Rong is very smart."
The eyes of the classmates looking at Gu Rong changed, and chattering sounds were heard.
"Wow, he got the question right that the monitor got wrong!"
"No wonder he was able to skip a grade at the age of nine."
"I never expected that there is someone who is better at math than the class monitor."
Of course, there are also sour voices: "What's wrong with doing the right thing? You are still a mute!"
Obviously everyone in the class now knows that Gu Rong is not unwilling to talk, but he is simply unable to talk.
Gu Rong had no expression from beginning to end, as if the person everyone was talking about was not him at all.
Ding Qiang was stunned and his face turned red instantly.
He actually did something wrong?
This is impossible!
Ma Xiangdong frowned and shouted "Silence", signaling everyone to stop talking. Then he looked at Ding Qiang, "Ding Qiang, do you know why you got it wrong? Look at what my question says. Didn't you notice that trees need to be planted on both sides? You only calculated one side, so the answer is wrong."
"So, sometimes students may not be able to answer the questions correctly even if they know how to do them. They still need to read the questions carefully. If they don't read them carefully or miss them, they will not get any points."
