"Zijin, look at Qiao Nan. No matter how bad she is, she never neglects her studies. Your brain is as smart as mom. If you put more thought and energy into your studies, you will definitely be better than Qiao Nan. What can mom do for you?
Even if you are willing to give up, you have to give Mom a voice and let her straighten her back in front of your dad!"
Only when her eldest daughter, whom she wholeheartedly cultivates, becomes successful can she prove that what she has been doing all along is correct.
"I understand. Mom, don't worry, I will definitely study hard. I will catch up with my grades after I enter high school and I will make sure not to embarrass you." Qiao Zijin still felt a little guilty after spending all his family's savings.
"Okay, school starts tomorrow. Remember, it's always good to read more. If that doesn't work, just memorize the textbook. If Qiao Nan can do it, you can do it too."
Thinking about it, Ding Jiayi felt confident, as if she had already seen the day when her eldest daughter would be admitted to college.
"Hey." Qiao Zijin smiled happily, but when she returned to the room, she felt extremely depressed.
Regardless of whether Ding Jiayi was happy or not, the study eventually became Qiao Nan's new room, and Qiao Nan's old room became Qiao Dongliang's study.
Ding Jiayi continued to vent her anger on Qiao Dongliang. Seeing that Qiao Dongliang had made up his mind, that night, she tidied up the small room and made the study look like a study.
However, Qiao Dongliang got off work earlier than usual the next day. The first thing he did when he got home was to rush to Qiao Nan's room to take a look, then pressed the keyhole at the door of Qiao Nan's room and locked Ding Jiayi in.
His face turned blue with anger.
Who is this lock protecting against?
It’s definitely not to guard against thieves, so it’s to guard against her!
Qiao Nan, who was staring blankly at the exam paper in school, didn't know about this. Many classmates in the classroom were discussing Qiao Nan's abnormality in this exam.
Teacher Chen, who originally wanted to talk to Qiao Nan, saw Qiao Nan's sad look and could not say anything else: "Student Qiao Nan, if you don't do well in the exam this time, try next time. Your foundation is still very good."
Yes. And your grades are just not up to your usual standards, and your performance in the class is pretty good. If you have any difficulties in studying, just come to the teacher, you know?"
Qiao Nan has never scored more than 90 points in her math test, but she has always scored full marks.
I got 85 in this exam, which is a very good score for others, but for Qiao Nan, it is really an unprecedented difference.
In this test, there were more than 240 people in the third year of junior high school. Qiao Nan, who had never been in the top ten, was ranked seventh or eighth this time.
If Teacher Chen hadn't paid close attention to Qiao Nan and refused to give up until he found out the ranking of Qiao Nan's single-course scores, otherwise the rankings would have been really clear.
After thinking about it, Teacher Chen walked to Qiao Nan and asked, "Qiao Nan, how did you spend this summer vacation? Have you reviewed it?"
In the past, Teacher Chen had never worried about Qiao Nan's studies, but this time she was "shocked" by Qiao Nan's results.
Qiao Nan didn't know whether she should be sad or grateful. The best person in the class had a score of 92, and she was still in the middle or upper reaches of 85.
It is indeed not an easy task to pick up textbook knowledge again, so Qiao Nan naturally felt depressed.
"The books are all gone."
"No more?" Teacher Chen looked at Qiao Nan in surprise: "Where are you going?"
"Sold by my mother."
After her rebirth, Qiao Nan wanted to understand that she would no longer hide what her mother had done, but she didn't want to use it to gain sympathy. She just wanted the necessary people to understand her situation and pull her in when the time was right.
A handful.
She really needs the teacher's care now, and give her some extra care, otherwise how will she catch up with her grades and return to the level she once had.
Teacher Chen was immediately speechless. The second half of the third year of junior high school was all review, and there were no new knowledge points. The knowledge from the first and second grades accounted for a large proportion of the high school entrance examination.
What kind of parent is this who sells all the books even though he knows his child is about to take the high school entrance exam? Is this intentional?
Thinking of what he had heard recently, Teacher Chen asked: "Qiao Nan, I heard that your sister went to the Affiliated High School to study?"
The Affiliated High School is a good high school in their area, but it's a bit difficult to get in.
"Well, I signed up today and the class officially started." Qiao Nan was stunned. It's true that good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles.
Using money to buy points would not be uncommon ten years later, but at this time, it is still relatively rare, and what her mother bought with money was not points, but human relationships.
When dad finds out that mom went to see that grandpa specifically about Qiao Zijin, he may not know how angry he will be.
"..." Teacher Chen's face tightened, and his expression didn't look good.
He believed that Qiao Nan could go to the Fuzhou Higher Education School, but he didn't believe that Qiao Zijin could go. And there was no need to believe that he didn't believe it. The facts were already in front of him. Qiao Zijin's grades had always been only middling, so how could he possibly go to the Fuzhou Higher School of Education?
.
Teacher Chen didn't want to guess how Qiao Zijin got the opportunity to study at Fu'an High School, let alone use malicious thoughts to speculate on Qiao Nan's mother's intention of selling all Qiao Nan's junior high school books.
But for the child Qiao Nan, Teacher Chen went from not understanding the score of 85 to feeling distressed: "It doesn't matter if the book is gone, the teacher will find a way for you. You have a good foundation, and you still have one year to catch up."
You have to go up. You know the teacher’s home, but if you don’t understand it, you can come to the teacher whenever you have time, do you understand?”
"Thank you, Teacher Chen." Qiao Nan swept away her previous depression and mustered up her courage: "I have already found a way to solve the book issue myself."
"How to solve it?"
"I went to the waste recycling station and bought a set, and I'm reading it myself. If there's anything I don't understand, I have to disturb Teacher Chen."
Teacher Chen smiled happily: "Don't bother me. Qiao Nan, don't put too much pressure on yourself. You must know how to balance work and rest, you know?"
"Yes, I will."
Now that the math scores are known, the next step is Chinese and English.
Qiao Nan's Chinese scores were similar to her math scores, with scores in the 80s, neither good nor bad. However, Qiao Nan came up empty-handed on all the content she had to memorize, and she didn't score a single point.
The classmates who didn't know the inside story saw Qiao Nan failing in two major subjects in a row. Some were gloating at the misfortune, while others were wondering if Qiao Nan had a brain problem, suddenly became stupid, or had a bad desire to learn.
Before, he was the top student they looked up to, but in just two months of summer vacation, the top student has turned into a bad student?
The Chinese teacher is a beautiful and gentle female teacher. Seeing Qiao Nan's test results, Teacher Li was so upset that she didn't sleep well last night. She was thinking about how to criticize Qiao Nan today, so as not to
Qiao Nan always thought that she didn't have to work hard because she had good grades, but she made such a test paper that disappointed her. (To be continued)
