In the office, Xu Jie pulled a chair from the seat next to him and let Shi Yunfeng sit down.
He looked at Shi Yunfeng, who was silent along the way, and sighed in his heart.
I don’t know if my method will work?
Will it be counterproductive?
He was a little worried and nervous in his heart.
After all, he didn't pay much attention to students like Shi Yunfeng when he was a physical education teacher.
Providing psychological counseling to students is not what a physical education teacher should do.
If any teacher other than Xu Jie were to be the class teacher, after seeing the report card, listening to other students, and communicating in person, there is a high probability that Shi Yunfeng would be treated as a real poor student, right?
He doesn't like to talk, his grades are not good, he doesn't have many friends in the class...
Such a student is in Class 9 of the second year of high school. If it had been anyone else, he would have given up long ago!
Xu Jie sighed inwardly, and after getting rid of distracting thoughts, he smiled and said to Shi Yunfeng:
"Shi Yunfeng, the teacher asked you, did you participate in the Mathematical Olympiad in junior high school?"
Shi Yunfeng participated in the Mathematical Olympiad competition in junior high school. This is the information Xu Jie got from Cao Shuai.
He heard from Cao Shuai that Shi Yunfeng not only participated in the competition, but also won an award.
But Cao Shuai didn't know the specific situation.
Upon hearing Xu Jie's question, Shi Yunfeng's hands on his legs suddenly shook.
Xu Jie kept watching him, and his small movements did not escape Xu Jie's observation.
After a moment of silence, Shi Yunfeng finally nodded: "Yes."
He said yes and said no more words.
The office fell into silence again.
Looking at Shi Yunfeng's appearance and his rough, exposed hands, Xu Jie just felt distressed.
The heavy blow suffered by the family accident caused this originally lively and cheerful top student to completely close himself off!
At this time, he was just like a walking zombie, living painfully in his own closed world!
When we were in Jihe Village in the afternoon, both villager Wei Dong and Shi Yunfeng's aunt Shi Zhimei once told Xu Jie that Shi Yunfeng had been sensible since he was a child.
Study well, have a good personality, and don't be naughty or mischievous.
His parents used to work in coastal cities, and he has been closest to his grandmother since he was a child.
It is not difficult for Xu Jie to surmise that his grandmother Xu Xiuying is now Shi Yunfeng’s biggest destiny!
The old lady is fine, and there is still room for recovery.
Once the old lady goes west?
Shi Yunfeng is afraid that this will be completely destroyed!
Xu Jie couldn't imagine that if his grandmother Xu Xiuying left, would he do something stupid?!
"Can you tell the teacher what competition you participated in? Did you win any prize in the end?"
Xu Jie asked with a smile.
He wanted to get closer to Shi Yunfeng, or at least make him not hate him.
After another moment of silence, Shi Yunfeng spoke:
"I participated in the 'Hua Luogeng Gold Cup' Youth Mathematics Invitational Competition, and finally won the second prize."
Xu Jie keenly noticed that when Shi Yunfeng said these words, his eyes were no longer lifeless, but a little bright!
There's drama!
Xu Jie was overjoyed!
From getting the news from Cao Shuai, to visiting his home, to asking Zhou Yutong about the Mathematical Olympiad competition, everything was Xu Jie's attempt.
Because he can see Shi Yunfeng's talent!
He has been looking for the breakthrough that can open up Shi Yunfeng's heart!
Mathematical Olympiad and Xu Xiuying are the two starting points for him.
And in Xu Jie's opinion, these two points can be connected into a line!
Hua Luogeng Gold Cup Youth Mathematics Invitational Competition?
Xu Jie raised his eyebrows. He is a physical education teacher. He has never heard of these competitions. It would be great if Zhou Yutong were here!
But Xu Jie knows Hua Luogeng’s name after all!
It shouldn't be too bad to have an event named after this famous mathematician, right?
Xu Jie thought to himself.
He wrote down the name of this event in his mind and planned to ask Zhou Yutong about it early tomorrow morning.
"Very powerful ah!"
Xu Jie smiled and gave Shi Yunfeng a thumbs up.
But his compliment did not make Shi Yunfeng feel any turmoil, and his expression did not even change at all.
Shi Yunfeng has received too many compliments and praises since he was a child!
Xu Jie saw his expression in his eyes. In any case, his willingness to talk to him was a good start.
Even a simple question and answer is better than not speaking at all.
"Are there any prizes for junior high school mathematics competitions?" Xu Jie asked with a smile.
The children in junior high school are only 14 or 15 years old. Xu Jie guessed that there is a high probability that there will be no bonus. A certificate or something will be the most popular!
When he helped the school participate in the long jump competition, he didn't get any cash prize!
Sure enough, Shi Yunfeng shook his head.
It’s fine if you don’t have it, it’s fine if you don’t have it!
Xu Jie smiled secretly in his heart and said again: "There are bonuses in the high school Mathematical Olympiad competition!"
Hearing Xu Jie's words, Shi Yunfeng's whole body trembled.
Xu Jie struck while the iron was hot and continued:
"I went and asked for you. A small worker on the construction site charges 280 yuan a day."
"Even if you don't go to class and go to the construction site to move bricks every day, you can earn 8,400 yuan 30 days a month."
"Let's not talk about whether your body can bear the hardship or not. Let's just assume that you are gifted and can bear the hardship."
"You can earn 102,200 yuan by moving bricks 365 days a year, all year round."
"Do you think it's a lot?"
Shi Yunfeng shook his head.
He is a smart boy.
There are no more classes, the construction site is open all year round, and the workers are open all year round. These preconditions do not exist.
Without these preconditions, the final result will naturally not be obtained.
He was even better than Xu Jie had imagined. But he had just heard that there was a prize for the high school Mathematical Olympiad competition, but he already had other ideas in mind.
No one knows how he felt when he watched his mother pass away!
No one knows what a heavy psychological blow he has suffered!
No one knows how he survived for more than a year!
The top student in junior high school, the top ten when entering school, the winner of the mathematics competition...
How high he stood at first, how badly he fell later!
Accidents, blows, cold looks, ridicule...
The mental torture day and night once made him contemplate committing suicide.
But every time he returned to that empty home, every time he saw his grandma who, even though she was tortured by the disease, still kindly told him to eat well and go to school, how could he be so selfish and ruthless as to leave her before him?!
He can't do it!
He wants to make money to treat his grandma.
He wanted to make money to pay back the relatives and friends who had lent money to his father.
Even if they no longer come to visit him now, even if they now dislike him, Shi Yunfeng knows that it is not their fault!
But after the Chinese New Year, he was only 17 years old.
If you are a minor and have not graduated from high school, where can you make money?
Grandma’s monthly medication alone costs three to four thousand, which does not include hospital check-ups, re-examinations, and treatments.
Auntie has taken enough care of grandma and him!
He wants to do whatever it takes to make money.
Shi Yunfeng shook his head, making Xu Jie extremely surprised.
He had no way of knowing Shi Yunfeng's inner thoughts, so he could only follow the original plan and said to Shi Yunfeng:
"Based on the situation in previous years, if you can win the first prize in the National Mathematical Olympiad Competition, the Municipal Education Bureau, the district, and the school will receive cash rewards."
"It adds up to about hundreds of thousands."
"If you can win the first prize in the International Olympiad Mathematics Competition, the prize money will only be more." www.bǐqυgetν.℃ǒm
Looking at Shi Yunfeng, who had a look on his face, Xu Jie said softly:
"I know your grandma is not in good health, and you want to make money to treat her."
"But if you don't study hard and think about going out to work early to make money, you are actually putting the cart before the horse!"
As he spoke, he took out a prepared bank card and placed it on the table.
"There is 200,000 yuan in this card."
"You can think of it as the teacher's advance payment for the Mathematical Olympiad competition."
"If you are willing to participate in the Mathematical Olympiad competition, I believe you will definitely win the national grand prize or even the international Mathematical Olympiad grand prize!"
"Classmate Shi Yunfeng, I ask you now, are you willing?"
