After the first class on the afternoon of September 4th, Xiao Zhen took the initiative to greet a female classmate sitting at the same table, who was wearing a tacky white dress. "Hello, classmate. I'm Xiao Zhen, the new transfer student."
My deskmate put away the mirror and replied, "Hello, my name is Yang Husheng. Where did you transfer from, Xiao Zhen?"
"I didn't really transfer schools. I graduated from Yuzhou Primary School in June and was originally scheduled to study in Beijing, but I couldn't stand the cold there, so I came to Shanghai." Xiao Zhen responded calmly.
"How come you're already in the second year of junior high school when you just graduated from elementary school? That's a big gap!" Yang Husheng asked curiously.
"It's normal. I skipped a grade. I still have seven days to go before I turn nine. What's so hard to understand, Sister Yang?" Xiao Zhen said, pulling out "Number Theory"
"Really? You look so tall, but how old were you when you started primary school?" The deskmate took out a mirror as usual and looked at himself.
"I grew up fast. I started school at the age of six. I started primary school in the fourth grade, so I just skipped a grade.
My dad is just worried that I’m too young and will be bullied by the older kids. By the way, how many people are there in our class, Sister Yang? " Xiao Zhen asked, blinking his eyes.
"You are indeed a little different. There are 41 people in our class, and with you in the mix, we have an even number of 42.
So your parents were transferred to Shanghai for work, so you are studying in the Affiliated High School?" Sister Yang was trying to find out the news.
"No, my parents are out of town, and I live alone not far away. My house is still repairing some things."
It's impossible for Xiao Zhen to directly suggest building a standard indoor running track and a constant temperature swimming pool for jogging, as that would easily scare these little girls.
"Do you live alone?" Yang Bagua aroused the desire to chat
"No, there are still a few people. I'm so young and my parents are out of town. How can they let me live alone?
I go to school alone, and it's only 7 or 8 minutes away by bike.
"Ding-ling-ling" the bell for class rang, and the two classmates got to know each other. This class was the Chinese class taught by the head teacher, Mr. Wu.
"Stand up, hello teacher!" the monitor shouted
"Hello, students, please sit down!" After a burst of rustling sounds, the classroom became quiet.
"Since the beginning of this semester, the teacher will tell everyone an idiom before each class, but I won't do that in today's class.
Teacher, let me introduce you to a new student. Xiao Zhen, please come up and introduce yourself.
Xiao Zhen walked to the podium and stood there, then he looked around the classroom and said, "Dear students, my name is Xiao Zhen, and I will be 9 years old on September 11 this year.
I transferred from Yuzhou and skipped a grade to study in Class 2, Grade 2.
I enjoy reading, music, physical exercise and writing.
I hope to work hard and make progress together with all the brothers and sisters in the future."
After Xiao Zhen finished speaking, the students applauded in response.
Teacher Wu hadn't asked him to leave yet, so he had no choice but to step aside after saying this.
"Xiao Zhen started primary school at the age of 6 and skipped a grade to start from the fourth grade.
Due to some arrangements made by his family, he transferred to the High School Affiliated to Fudan University in Shanghai and passed the skipping grade test in the morning.
Xiao Zhen is fortunate to be our new classmate. He is younger than everyone here.
Because his parents are not in Shanghai due to work reasons, his classmates took the initiative to care for him earlier.
It is true what Xiao Zhen said that he likes reading and writing. He has published millions of words of works both at home and abroad.
Therefore, everyone here should be humble and learn more from your brother Xiao Zhen.
In addition, Xiao Zhen said that he likes physical exercise. He is the national record holder for the 100-meter and 200-meter sprints for middle school students.
Okay, Xiao Zhen, you can go down, we will start the class immediately.
The entire class of 40 or so people was shocked, including Yang Husheng, who loved looking in the mirror. Her little deskmate was actually a tough guy! Was he a human? Or an alien?
Next it was class time, and Xiao Zhen gave face to the head teacher and didn't do his own thing.
However, the "Number Theory" textbook that Yang Husheng took out during the break was all in English, and he couldn't understand it.
During the breaks between the three classes in the afternoon, some curious classmates came over to say hello and chat.
After the last class, Xiao Zhen and Yang Husheng were not on duty today, so they packed their bags and went out together after school.
"Sister Yang, is your home far away?" Xiao Zhen asked with a smile
"Xiao Zhen, your schoolbag is really nice. Where did you buy it? I'll ask my mom to buy me one." Yang Husheng was a little concerned about his appearance, but it's better to be clean than to be sloppy.
"This is what my mother bought in London. Do you like it? I'll ask my mother to bring it to you next time." Xiao Zhen said
"That requires foreign exchange! My family doesn't have any foreign exchange. How much is your bag in RMB?" Yang Husheng still didn't give up.
"About RMB!" Xiao Zhen didn't know the exact price.
"A schoolbag is so expensive?" Yang Husheng's parents may not know luxury goods or have never come into contact with them.
"The British pound is very cheap, only a little over 130 pounds." Xiao Zhen said innocently.
"It's too expensive, too expensive. My parents both work at the Yangshupu Power Plant. How much do they earn? I'd have to go without food and drink for a few years to even buy myself a bag. Ugh!" This directly depressed the girl sitting at the same table.
"Sister Yang, do you want to ride a bike or take the bus? The power plant seems a bit far away." Xiao Zhen asked.
"You know it's far. Besides, a bicycle costs more than 100 yuan. My parents are reluctant to buy me one. It's more labor-saving to take the bus. Why don't you just ride a bicycle?" Yang Husheng asked
