After the seventh day of the New Year, the adults were busy with their own things. Some went to film, some went to work, and some did business.
Xia Wenyue had already contacted the company that wanted to buy the machine last year. After making a phone call and transferring the deposit, the other party shipped the product directly by train, and it would arrive in about seven or eight days.
During the waiting period, Xia Wenyue sold sesame cakes and handled various trademark and qualification procedures.
At this time, the benefits of Mao Huimei's work were reflected. Although they were not in the same industry, the relevant departments and processes to be found were similar. After consulting her colleagues, she helped Xia Wenyue avoid many detours.
Xia Mian and Mao Huilan became the focus of everyone's attention. After all, they would be taking the transfer exam in a few days.
I don’t know what Xia Wenyue told Xiao Feng.
Anyway, the little guy started to supervise Xia Mian's studies personally and stopped going out to play. He dragged Xia Mian to the studio after breakfast early in the morning.
Because Xiao Feng was still young, he needed an adult to accompany him when he was painting, so Xia Mian set up a desk in his studio. Usually, when he was painting, she would study beside him.
Although it looked like usual at this moment, the little guy was actually using his little drawing board to doodle while accompanying her in her studies.
Xia Mian coughed slightly, and he immediately ran out. A moment later, he came back with half a glass of water and handed it to her, "Auntie, drink some water."
Hearing the voices of Mao Huizhu and Mao Huilan outside asking for apples, he stood up and ran out. Before leaving, he told Xia Mian, "Auntie, study hard."
"Okay, okay." Xia Mian watched the little guy leave, immediately put down the book, and breathed a long sigh of relief. He was watching him so strictly.
Second Aunt's trick was really good, it made her feel embarrassed to slack off.
I had thought that he would play with Mao Huizhu for a while longer. Xia Mian was just about to relax when he heard the sound of footsteps and hurriedly picked up the book.
It's been a long time since I felt the urgency of being monitored by my parents while studying.
Sure enough, it was Xiao Feng who pushed the door open, holding a plate in her little hand, with apples cut into small pieces on the plate.
"Auntie." The child put the plate on her table and said, "Take a break and have an apple."
Exactly the same as when she usually took care of him.
While Xia Mian finds it funny, the only way to relieve stress is to hug the little guy tightly in my arms and rub him.
When the machine Xia Wenyue bought arrived, Yanda High School had already started school. Xia Mian finally ended this sweet torture and went to take the transfer exam with Mao Huilan.
Xia Wenyue and Xia Mian first sent Mao Huilan to the junior high school together. After handing her over to the teacher, Xia Wenyue immediately sent Xia Mian to the high school.
Although Xia Mian repeatedly said that she could do it alone, Xia Wenyue disagreed. "No matter how old she is, she is still a child. How can a child go to school without a parent? Besides, I have to see the teacher no matter what."
Although Xia Mian was helpless, she felt warm in her heart.
There is no division between arts and science in the first year of high school. There are a total of nine courses: Chinese, mathematics, English, politics, history, geography, biology, chemistry and politics. Four courses are tested in the morning and five courses are tested in the afternoon.
There were a total of six students, including Xia Mian, who came to take the transfer exam at the same time. They were arranged to take the exam together in a small conference room.
Most of the questions in the test paper are basic, with one or two advanced questions.
After reviewing for a few months, and with the high-pressure training under Xiao Feng's supervision, Xia Mian did very well.
After finishing the last exam in the morning, Xia Mian went out and saw Sun Yuexin and Li Lizhen waiting at the door.
"Why are you here?" She was a little surprised.
Sun Yuexin smiled and said, "It's the first day of school. I picked up new books and cleaned up. I'm almost done. I heard that the transfer exam is here, so I came to see you."
Li Lizhen asked, "How did you do on the exam?"
Xia Mian smiled and said, "Anyway, everything that can be done has been done."
Sun Yuexin was surprised. "Is there anything you can't do? Are the questions really that difficult?"
Xia Mian tilted her head and said, "No, I can do it."
Sun Yuexin was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter with Li Lizhen, "You are so mean."
Xia Mian took their arms and said, "Let's go home."
When the three of them came down from upstairs, they encountered groups of students.
After walking a dozen meters, Sun Yuexin couldn't help but sigh, "This is the first time I've enjoyed this kind of attention."
Xia Mian raised her hand to smooth her hair and said shamelessly, "Then you'll have to get used to it in the future."
Sun Yuexin couldn't help rolling her eyes, and Li Lizhen burst into laughter.
Xia Mian, who aspires to be a fairy, of course dressed up beautifully on such an important day today.
Besides, she is good-looking and her dressing style is not out of the ordinary. She just has some small details that are not available in this era, such as a thin belt and a simple and rustic homemade sweater chain. In addition, she has a special temperament and easily becomes the focus of her classmates.
The boys and girls walking in front of her kept looking back at her.
Xia Mian sighed contentedly. She would definitely have a wonderful high school life as a little fairy in this life. The grumpy witch and the like would all be gone forever!
When the three of them were about to leave the high school department, they actually ran into Gu Zhou and Tian Xueya.
The two seemed to have made some progress, and the atmosphere was a little ambiguous.
Tian Xueya saw Xia Mian stunned for a moment, then quietly tugged at Gu Zhou.
When Gu Zhou looked over, he and Xia Mian's eyes met.
Xia Mian immediately smiled and greeted them warmly, "School Prince Gu, School Beauty Tian, hello."
Gu Zhou paused, his face slightly reddened, "Hello."
"Hello." Tian Xueya's voice was very soft, as if she was a little afraid of her, and she hid closely beside Gu Zhou.
This action reminded Gu Zhou that Xia Mian seemed to be related to a criminal case. He forced a smile, said a simple hello, and quickly left with Tian Xueya.
Sun Yuexin said angrily, "What do you mean by pretending to be noble? You must be doing it on purpose!"
Li Lizhen's eyes dimmed for a moment, then she frowned and said, "She will definitely say something bad about Xia Mian this afternoon."
Xia Mian shrugged and didn't care. "Who cares? I can't stop her from talking. Let her do whatever she wants."
"Hurry up, I have to pick up my sister."
Li Lizhen knew Tian Xueya quite well. When Xia Mian came out of the exam in the afternoon, the attention she received along the way was no longer just surprise and curiosity.
And dodge and weirdness.
“…”
"Have you really been to jail? You must be kidding."
"But she's so pretty. I don't think it's necessarily her. Aren't there several transfer students here? It could be someone else."
"I don't think so either."
"But everyone says she knows Sun Yuexin and Li Lizhen. There's no one else besides her."
"What? What are you talking about?"
"Let me tell you, there's a transfer student who was in the first grade this year who was in jail..."
“…”
These days, toilets are built in a separate building with blue bricks, with a wall in the middle separating men and women, and there is no sound insulation at all.
So I could hear the discussions on both sides clearly.
Coming out of the bathroom, Sun Yuexin angrily said, "Fuck, Tian Xueya is so fucking disgusting."
Li Lizhen said, "We had agreed not to mention you this afternoon, in case Tian Xueya took advantage of the situation."
"Didn't a lot of people see you at noon? The boys in the class were talking like crazy about this new pretty transfer student who joined us in the first year of high school, and they all hoped she'd be assigned to our class."
"I thought it was bad right then," Li Lizhen said angrily. "Sure enough, Tian Xueya usually wants all the boys to help her clean. But today she was really active, handing brooms and rags, and whispering to the boys all afternoon. She must have said that then."
"Really?" Xia Mian held her face happily, "Everyone says I'm beautiful?"
Sun Yuexin grabbed her shoulders and shook her depressedly, "Sister, wake up and talk about business!"
"Don't worry, don't worry!" Xia Mian hurriedly comforted him, "There's no need to be angry about such outrageous rumors. Once they see me, the real little fairy, they will be defeated."
"She's spreading rumors now, but when the truth comes out, she'll be the one to be embarrassed."
Li Lizhen is not so optimistic. "Rumors are not so easy to dispel. After a long time, who knows what will happen to them."
Sun Yuexin also said, "We heard that there was a female classmate in Longcheng Junior High School. During the physical examination, the doctor said she had a lump in her stomach. Then the rumor spread that the female classmate was pregnant."
"The matter was never fully resolved in the end. Many thugs bullied her because of it. One time, they beat her so hard that she had to be hospitalized. Her parents found out about it and quickly transferred her away."
Xia Mian frowned when he heard this.
"That's right," Li Lizhen said, "Besides, those men become stupid when they meet Tian Xueya. Everything she says is right."
"Those guys who only judge people by appearance!"
Xia Mian said, "Don't worry, I'm not that girl, and I'm right here. She's not the only one with a mouth."
"Besides..." Xia Mian smiled again, holding her face, "If we talk about judging people by appearance, I'm not inferior to her!"
Sun Yuexin was speechless and said, "You are really hopeless. Why didn't I realize you were so narcissistic before?"
Li Lizhen said, "Then hurry up and use your beauty to dispel the rumors."
"Come on, come on, break it right away." Xia Mian said.
Sun Yuexin and Li Lizhen thought she was joking, but she immediately made a gesture to them to keep quiet, and then led them to follow the three boys who were discussing enthusiastically.
“…”
"Really? You really were in jail. Why?"
"I'm not sure. If it's a girl, she wouldn't be fighting, would she?"
"What else could it be? Theft? Fraud?"
"Are you telling the truth?" Xia Mian interrupted in surprise, "Has anyone in our group of transfer students ever been to jail?"
The three boys turned around and saw her, their faces immediately blushing, not knowing whether it was because they were caught saying bad things about others, or because they were suddenly spoken to by a pretty girl.
Xia Mian's face was full of curiosity as she asked, "Who is it?"
It's you!
