Two days later, it was the day when Xiang Jin and the others went back to school to collect their final exam results. After breakfast that day, Xiang Jin and Yan Chen made an appointment to go to school together.
After Yang Zhao heard about it, he expressed that he wanted to follow them, and Xiang Lan and the other three children also looked at the two of them eagerly.
Xiang Jin said, "We are going back to get our transcripts, not for sightseeing. What are you going to do? Besides, you haven't seen what their school is like. What's there to see?"
And the same goes for you guys. We are a school, not a zoo. What’s there to follow? If you want to see what our school is like, just study hard. If you go to junior high school in the future, you don’t want to study in a town.
You can take the exam and go to a key middle school, and you will naturally know when the time comes.
Just stay at home, we will be back in the afternoon, Yang Hui, please keep an eye on them, and remember, don't be naughty, or we will come back to deal with you! Grandpa, are you leaving?"
"Oh, okay! There is thick snow on the road, please slow down?"
"Yeah, got it!"
Xiang Jin and the others walked out of the hospital and saw Yan Chen's cousin's car parked on the road not far from their home. Xiang Jin asked, "Is your cousin taking you to school?" The treatment is not bad.
?
Yan Chen said, "He is going to the city, so drop by!"
"Oh, like this?!" Xiang Jin nodded.
Yan Chen followed and asked, "Are you interested in going to the city with us after you receive your transcripts later?"
"You are going to the city? And Brother Haoze will wait for you?" Xiang Jin was a little surprised.
Yan Chen nodded, "Well, he went to pick up something. My uncle and aunt sent it back, but they can only go to the county. I will go to the county to buy some paint and painting paper."
Xiang Jin nodded and suddenly asked, "Don't you always buy your paints and drawing paper from the provincial capital? Why did you go to the county to buy them this time?"
Yan Chen said, "Yes, I have been using paint and paper from a calligraphy and painting shop in the provincial capital, but they have recently sold out. They said that even the latest arrival will not be until after the Spring Festival. They said
If I am in a hurry, I can go to the county town and have a look. They also have a shop in the county town here, so I will go and have a look since my brother is in town today."
Xiang Jin nodded, indicating that he understood, "But nothing seems to happen to me when I get to the county seat?"
Yan Chen asked her, "Didn't you say you wanted to buy clothes for your family last time? Why did you buy them all?"
Xiang Jin shook his head, "That's not the case yet! I originally planned to take them to pick some day when I'm not very busy, but if I go to the county town to buy them for them today, I don't know what they are doing.
How tall and fat are you? What if when the time comes to buy it, it’s too big and it doesn’t fit?”
Yan Chen nodded, "That's true, but you can buy two sets for yourself?"
Xiang Jin said, "It doesn't matter to me. I have been growing taller in the past two years. I bought too many clothes. It will be a waste if I can't wear them by then."
Yan Chen frowned and suddenly asked Xiang Jin, "Hey, there are refrigerators and TVs for sale in the county. Can I buy these two items?"
Summer is here, and she feels that the food ingredients should be better kept in the refrigerator, and if her grandpa is not busy by then, he can still watch TV at home.
Yan Chen nodded, "Yeah, sure!"
The corners of Xiang Jin's mouth suddenly curled up, and then his eyes brightened, "Okay, then I'll go with you!"
"good!"
"The other party should be able to guarantee delivery, right?" If they don't deliver, it will be troublesome.
Yan Chen said, "I don't know, it should be possible. I'll ask when the time comes!"
"Um!"
An hour and a half later, Xiang Jin and the others arrived at the school. After parking the car, Zeng Haoze said to them, "Go, I'll wait for you in the car!"
Xiang Jin and Yan Chen nodded, and then they opened the car door and walked out, entering the campus. Xiang Jin and the others saw that people of all ages had arrived, and everyone was going to their respective classrooms.
In a hurry, Xiang Jin and the others also went to their own classes.
Before the school's commendation meeting, the head teachers of each class had to make some concluding remarks and some precautions after the holiday. So when Xiang Jin passed by Yan Chen's class, he saw that all the students in his class were already seated.
After all, when she returned to her class, the number of people in her class was only about one-third and less than two-thirds.
After comparing the two sides, Xiang Jin immediately came to the conclusion that the Rocket Class was indeed the Rocket Class. Not only was their academic performance far ahead of the whole grade, but they were also very active and fast when they returned to school to receive their final exam transcripts. At this moment
It’s only nine o’clock and there are already so many people there, which I have to say is admirable!
After her previous deskmate moved to the back, there was a vacant space in Xiang Jin's seat, which seemed a bit abrupt. Unexpectedly, when she came back this time, there was a new set of desks and chairs there.
Xiang Jin couldn't help but feel a little confused. Is it because a new classmate is moving in or is a classmate from their class wanting to be her deskmate?
Although he was a little confused, Xiang Jin returned to his seat, then took out a paper towel and wiped the dust on his desk, stool and chair.
She was just halfway through wiping, and then someone came to her to borrow a tissue and asked her about the situation, "Hey, Xiang Jin, do you know what your total score was this time?"
Xiang Jin shook his head, "I don't know, I just came here! Do you think you all already know your results?"
The girl shook her head, "No, they said they just saw Teacher He return to his office with a stack of transcripts, and then quickly left the office and went downstairs empty-handed, so everyone discussed
Do you want to go to his office and take a sneak peek? Do you want to go? If you want to go, we can go together?"
Xiang Jin shook his head, "No, I won't go!"
The girl said, "You are so calm!"
Another girl came over and took the arm of the girl before and said, "I don't mean you can be calm. She has confidence and a plan in mind. I believe I will do well in the exam this time. There is no need to look at it. How can I look like that?"
We are on tenterhooks! Let’s go, we are not traveling together, why are we talking so much?”
The girl from before smiled awkwardly at Jin and said, "Thank you for the tissue," and then she was dragged away by the girl.
Inexplicably, Xiang Jin didn't bother to pay attention to the other party's sarcastic remarks. He opened the desk and sat down. Then he took out a Youth Digest that he hadn't finished yet but had expired for a long time and started reading.
Just when their class was almost full, their class teacher walked in with a stack of test papers. The noisy classroom suddenly became quiet. Everyone looked at their class teacher's unchanging black face.
He lowered his head, not even daring to express his anger.
Xiang Jin and his class teacher looked at the crowd of people below and said, "I don't know what to say to you. How difficult are the questions? I think there are still some people who did very well in the exam?
Needless to say, Xiang Jin has a total score of 7842, ranking first in our class and second in the whole grade. Except for Chinese, which has 97 points, and Politics, which has 5 points, all other subjects have full marks.
Feng Jianguo, Zhang Hongbin, and Luo Liyang did well in this test. Not only did they basically complete all the test questions, but they also made rapid progress, and the rate of wrong questions was reduced a lot on the original basis.
But some people have always had good grades in the past, but this time they failed in the final exam. Yang Lihan, Liu Liqiong, Li Youmei, Fang Zhou, look at what kind of test questions you are taking. Not only are there several questions at the end of several courses.
All the questions were left blank, and even some simple multiple-choice questions and judgments were wrong. How do you usually study, ah?
Especially you, Yang Lihan and Li Yumei. In the past, you could still be among the top few in the class, more than 90 in the whole grade, but now you have fallen to the top dozen or more in the 20th grade.
What's even more shameful is that you are both juniors of more than 200. What do you think you two are doing in class every day?
If you keep going like this, you still expect to take the exam in the future. What will you take? Take the exam! If you really have no time to study anymore, I advise you to get out as soon as possible. This will also save your parents from having to support you to study.
And you work so hard to make money!”
No one dared to say anything, and everyone buried their heads even lower, especially the ones at the back who were criticized by name, with their heads hanging so low that they could only find a crack in the ground to burrow into.
But their head teacher didn't intend to stop there, but continued, "Yang Lihan, your parents are grocery stores. They get up at four or five o'clock every morning and go to the wholesale market to purchase goods. Otherwise, if you get there late, you will have to buy groceries."
Without good food, the hard work of buying food for a day is only a few dozen yuan. Yang Lihan, do you think you can afford them?"
Yang Lihan didn't say anything, but Xiang Jin thought that the other party must feel uncomfortable at the moment, maybe blaming himself, maybe feeling ashamed, but it's no wonder he felt better after being named and criticized in front of so many people!
"And you, Li Youmei, your parents are all farmers. It's not easy for a farmer to support someone to study. I remember how proud your parents were when they sent you to school. They said that you have been a child since you were young.
You study more seriously and work harder than any of your children. They never worry about your academic performance, but look at what you did in the exam this time? You can still afford them.
Your earnest expectation and trust?"
Li Youmei didn't say anything, but when Xiang Jin raised his head, he saw a face that was red with embarrassment.
Fortunately, there were two teachers from other subjects outside waiting to hand out the test papers, so their head teacher didn't lose his temper anymore, but said, "Okay, now everyone, come and take the test papers, and it's up to you.
Whether these questions should be wrong or not, reflect carefully for a while! Zhao Jianguo..."
Those whose names were called followed one by one to the podium to collect their final exam papers. Then Xiang Jin saw those who had gone to collect the papers first come back. Their papers also had scores for all subjects posted on them.
The report card is as big as an A4 paper, and seems to have comments from the teachers of each subject attached at the back.
My dear, this is a holiday that doesn’t let people have a good year! One teacher’s comment is enough, and there are even teachers from all subjects following suit! If a student has a negative comment from a teacher, it doesn’t count.
, but if there are two or more, then you can imagine how frightened and heartbroken the student will be during this winter vacation!
In a short time, Xiang Jin and the others were the first to distribute their English test papers, followed by Chinese, mathematics, physics, chemistry...
However, except for the math and Chinese teachers, who each symbolically said a few sentences each, the other teachers did not say anything, but directly handed out the papers, and then returned to all the questions that they had done incorrectly.
Do it again.
I thought that things in the class were over like this, but unexpectedly, just as the last history teacher handed out the test papers and went out, their class teacher walked in again, holding something like a roll of paper in his hand.
"To make a long story short, although the school has rewards for those who do well in the exam, our class cannot be left behind. Now that I read someone's name, I came up to collect it!" After saying this, their head teacher handed the roll of paper to
Expand.
Everyone said nothing, all looking at him, and then heard their homeroom teacher say, "Xiang Jin?!"
Then Xiang Jin left, and then heard their class teacher say, "First place," and then handed her a certificate and a red envelope, "The class reward is five hundred yuan!
"
Xiang Jin reached out and took it, a little surprised at the same time. She knew that the school had scholarships, and they were said to be quite high. She had also heard that some classes would reward students who did well in the exam, but this was not necessarily the case.
Some will have it, and some won't, so it depends on the wishes of the class teacher. I didn't expect that their class would have it, so it seems that there are benefits to having good grades.
"Li Lintao?!"
Then Li Lintao stood up and walked up.
"Second place will be awarded three hundred yuan by the class!"
Li Lintao reached out and took the certificate and red envelope he handed over, and then heard someone below whispering, "I didn't expect that the gap between the rewards for first place and second place is still a bit big?"
Some people nodded and said, "Well, that's right, two hundred!"
Someone said, "The gap between the first place and the second place is already very big. In the past, the straight-line total score difference between the first place and the second place in Xiang Jin's exam was more than 100 and nearly 200 points."
The difference in bonus is so big, it’s normal.”
"Well, this is true too!"
After Li Lintao heard everyone's words, he lowered his head, and then heard their head teacher calling the third person's name.
"Feng Jianguo?!"
Feng Jianguo immediately stood up from his seat. Perhaps because he didn't expect that he was still in third place, he was a little excited. The movement when he stood up was a bit loud, so he bumped into his desk.
superior.
When everyone saw that he had knocked their desks a lot, they couldn't help but laugh. Feng Jianguo's face suddenly turned as red as a ripe apple.
Their head teacher looked at the people below and his face darkened again, "Laughing? What's so funny? Aren't you the ones who should be laughing? They still have the ability to get third place in the exam, how about you?"
Then no one dared to laugh.
"Feng Jianguo, third place, the class will be rewarded with one hundred yuan!"
Feng Jianguo stepped forward, and when he accepted the certificate and red seal, he heard their head teacher say again, "Keep up the good work!"
After hearing the encouraging words from the head teacher, Feng Jianguo was immediately excited and smiled broadly, "Yes, Teacher He!"
After he walked off the podium, his head teacher said a few more words and asked everyone to go to the playground and stand in line with the class, waiting for the school to hold a holiday summary meeting.
On the way to the playground, someone joked to Xiang Jin, "Xiang Jin, you have made a fortune today. You have received a prize from this class, and you will also receive a prize from the school later."
"That's right, Xiang Jin, you got second place in your grade. The two scholarships you received today must be more than 3,000, right? How about that, how do you plan to spend that much money?"
Xiang Jin said, "You are overthinking. How can there be so much?"
Someone counted on their fingers and asked her, "Why not? The class has already given you five hundred yuan. According to the school's past reward practices, anyone who takes the first place in the grade will get three thousand or more. Anyone who takes the exam will get three thousand yuan or more."
The second place in the grade is worth 2,500 to 3,000, and the third place is 1,500 to 2,000. Teacher He said, if you are the second in the grade, you can get it no matter what.
Two thousand and five thousand, right?"
Xiang Jin said, "You said that was in the past, so how do you know that the reward will be like that this year? What if it is reduced?"
The other party said, "It shouldn't happen, right? There are no special circumstances, how can it be reduced?"
Xiang Jin glanced at each other indifferently, and then fell silent. Just as he walked down to the rest platform on the first floor, he saw two girls from their class walking in front of them, and they were not angry at the same time.
He said authentically, "What's so great? He's not number one, he's just number two, and he'll be the second best in ten thousand years!"
Those who went downstairs with Xiang Jin heard this and looked at Xiang Jin. Xiang Jin ignored him and continued going downstairs.
The second in ten thousand years is the second in ten thousand years. She doesn't care whether the first place is hers or Yan Chen's. Anyway, they are not outsiders. In short, she is the one receiving the scholarship today, not them. They can be upset as they please.
!
A girl came up and comforted her, "Xiang Jin, don't pay attention to what they say."
Xiang Jin said, "I don't care. They didn't mention me by name, so even if they were talking about me, I don't care, because I was happy today and got the bonus, and they are jealous of me!"
The girl laughed twice and said, "Haha, yes, yes!"
Xiang Jin went downstairs and saw Yan Chen, his cousin Zeng Haoze and Yan Fei standing together, not knowing what they were talking about. At the same time, Yan Fei waved to them.
Xiang Jin walked quickly towards them, "What's going on?"
Yan Fei said, "The conference won't start for a while. Why are you standing there so early, absorbing other people's envious and jealous eyes towards you?"
Xiang Jin asked, "How can others be envious, jealous, or hateful of me?"
Yan Fei curled his lips and said, "Don't be so stubborn. When I went downstairs, I heard many people saying mean things to you."
"Oh, then what did they say about me?" Xiang Jin became interested.
Yan Fei said, "What else can I say to you? I'm just jealous that your grades are better than theirs. I want to make a lot of money and go back today."
Xiang Jin curled his lips and said, "Boring!"
Yan Fei said, "Isn't that right? I don't have the ability to get good grades, so why are I jealous of other people? I just can't stand those bastards in the class!"
Xiang Jin didn't want to continue chatting with them on this topic, so he changed the subject, "When did you arrive? Why didn't I see you?"
Yan Fei said, "In the last few minutes before the head teacher entered the classroom, I went through the back door."
Xiang Jin nodded, "Then do you want to go back today?"
Yan Fei nodded, "Yes, but my second uncle told me to wait and go to his place."
Seeing his depressed look, Xiang Jin asked, "What's wrong?"
Yan Fei said, "My second uncle wants to deal with me!"
"Why does your second uncle want to deal with you?"
"I failed in the exam, and my second uncle read the comments about me from teachers in various subjects from Teacher He in advance. Three teachers wrote about me reading novels in class. My second uncle was very angry.
Then he said he was going to deal with me!" Yan Fei said with a sad face.
"Oh, that's a bit miserable, huh?" Xiang Jin looked at him sympathetically.
Yan Fei immediately glared at her, "What's that expression on your face?!"
Xiang Jin said, "I sympathize with your expression!"
Yan Fei immediately yelled, "Shit, I can clearly see that you were gloating over your misfortune?! Xiang Jin, you have such a weak conscience, I'm about to be beaten, and you don't even feel sorry for me."
?”
Xiang Jin said, "It's not like I was beaten. Why should I be sad?"
Yan Fei pointed at her and complained, "But, we are good friends?"
Xiang Jin said, "Actually, you have to put it on yourself to understand things like sadness. Even if others have a good relationship with you, they won't be able to understand it if they don't empathize with you. I am an honest person.
, it is precisely because I regard you as a friend that I don’t lie to you, otherwise it would be hypocrisy.
If you don’t believe me, ask Yan Chen, Yan Chen is also your friend, ask him if she felt sad for you after hearing those words that you were about to be beaten?”
Yan Fei looked at Yan Chen, and Yan Chen shook his head, "No!"
Yan Fei immediately began to cry like he was playing tricks, "Oh, what kind of fate do I have? Why am I so miserable? I have to be punished by my second uncle today, and I will be punished again when I get home.
I was punished by my parents, so all the friends I made here were just sitting back and watching the show."
Xiang Jin and Yan Chen suddenly had black lines on their heads and turned around and left.
Yan Fei opened one eye and waved to them, "Alas, wait for me!"
Yan Chen and his cousin looked funny, then patted him on the shoulder and left.
Yan Chen's total score in the final exam this time was 748. There is no doubt that he is not only the first in his class, but also the first in the entire freshman grade, so in the end it was Yan Chen who got 3,500.
Xiang Jin received a scholarship worth 3,000 yuan, as well as a certificate, a brand pen and a thick leather-covered notebook.
However, Yan Chen and his class did not give out any prizes this time, so the final result was that Xiang Jin and Yan Chen were equal in total amount, and Xiang Jin even got one more certificate than him.
"It's seven past eleven now. Should we eat in the town and then go to the county town, or go directly to the county town and eat again?" Xiang Jin said to the two handsome guys next to him outside the school gate.
.
Yan Chen asked, "Are you hungry?"
Xiang Jin shook his head, "No, I'm afraid you'll be hungry. Your family has breakfast earlier than ours!"
Yan Chen said, "I'm not hungry yet!"
Zeng Haoze walked around the front of the car and said, "Then let's go to the city to eat!"
"Okay, I'll treat you then!" I believe he opened the car door and got in.
After Yan Chen got in, he asked, "Why did you invite me? I'll invite you today!"
Xiang Jin said, "Didn't I tell you before that I would treat you to dinner?"
Zeng Haoze said, "Don't argue, I'll invite you today, and you guys call me brother anyway. How can a brother eat out and ask his younger brothers and sisters to pay for it?"
Xiang Jin said, "We got an unexpected fortune today!"
"Windfall?" Zeng Haoze laughed, "How would you feel if the teachers and leaders of your school heard that you described the scholarship they specially gave you as a windfall?
"
Xiang Jin explained with some embarrassment, "This is a sum of money we picked up, yes, that's what it means."
Zeng Haoze said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore, it's settled, I'll pay for lunch. Now think about what you want to eat for lunch. The county seems to have Western food, Chinese food, and beef and mutton pots!"
Xiang Jin looked at Yan Chen, "What do you want to eat?"
Yan Chen shook his head, "I'm not very familiar with the county's food. How about we find someone to inquire about it before we make a decision?"
