If you compare goods, you have to throw them away, and if you compare people, you are more popular than others.
The students from other schools were sour when they saw it. They are studying in a public school and want to ask the principal to treat them to dinner
Dreams have everything.
The fourth middle school students who had just recalled the test papers and checked the answers with great interest took out their mobile phones and took a look. A student raised his eyebrows unexpectedly: "Tsk, among other things, Yude's treatment is really good."
Yue Shi's friend list also includes former classmates from the rocket class. At this time, she saw a photo of Principal Yude treating guests to dinner and chatting with the students cordially in her space.
There was an indescribably strange feeling in her heart.
A classmate asked back: "What can I do, will you go?"
The top students were stunned, go to Yude? it's out of the question.
If they really went to Yude, they might not be able to adapt.
The posts circulating on the Yude Forum some time ago were a mess. The students' minds are not on their studies, they are either comparing themselves to show off their wealth or marrying a wealthy family, just like social circles.
In contrast, the style of study and discipline of No. 4 Middle School is serious and upright.
The leading teacher of No. 4 Middle School glanced at the photos of these gatherings and looked away.
No wonder the exams are not as good as those of No. 4 Middle School every year. Such arrogance and lust, how can such a school spirit do well in the exam
The teacher in charge of No. 4 Middle School singled out a few students with good grades, "Although the grades haven't been announced yet, you guys still have to start preparing for the provincial team selection."
"The No. 4 Middle School will go all out to compete for the provincial first prize this year!"
The students of the No. 4 Middle School listened, and smiled at each other indifferently, with a tacit understanding.
…
Zhou Xiu breathed a sigh of relief after finishing the biology league exam. She soaked in the library, reading extra-curricular books comfortably.
By the way, Zhou Xiu borrowed two books recommended by Xie Cheng. She recalled her confusion and confusion when writing the biology competition test questions, and borrowed a publication about biology——"Cell".
On Monday, Zhou Xiu brought the newly borrowed book to the classroom to read. As soon as she opened "Cell", her mind couldn't stop being confused, so Zhou Xiu had to ask Momo to help translate it.
Tidbits took the magazine and stumbled in translation for the first time. She flipped through the pages of the book, glanced at the cover and table of contents, and touched Zhou Xiu's forehead in a daze:
"My God, Xiuxiu doesn't have a fever. This is the latest research in the field of life sciences!"
Zhou Xiu woke up like a dream, "It's okay, Xuxu, you look at the translator, I can guess what you don't know."
Trivia: “…”
Tidbits expressed its rejection of this torture.
In the past, when Momo helped translate number theory, I felt a little bit of difficulty, but after all, there are few difficult words in mathematics. However, when I opened a book on biotechnology, I felt full of suffocation.
Tidbits took out a leaflet from the drawer and asked Zhou Xiu solemnly: "Girl, do you want to sign up?"
"You need to be forced to be encouraged. Without a serious game, you will not learn English well."
Zhou Xiu got the leaflet and glanced at it, "Century Cup English Speech Contest?"
Tidbits nodded, "Go and have fun, it doesn't matter if you win the prize or not."
Zhou Xiu never thought of participating in English competitions. Her weakest point is English. How could she use her shortcomings to compare with other top students
Trivia Zhou Xiu said: "We help you revise your speech, what are you afraid of?"
"Xiuxiu, choose to believe in yourself. English is not difficult at all, as long as you are willing to take the first step, you will be fine. Now you can find us to help you translate, and we will not be by your side in the future, what will you do?"
Xu Qing took "Cell" from Zhou Xiu's hand and waved to her, "After school, I'll try to help you translate."
Tidbits stomped her feet, "Squad leader—don't disrupt the stage!"
Xu Qing smiled, "There is no rush for English, take your time, it is enough for Xiuxiu to concentrate on preparing for the math competition."
Zhou Xiu: "..."
She took the flyer and wrote down her name and registration information in a swish.
After school.
Xu Qing opened the biology magazine, wiped the seat at the same table with a tissue, and asked Zhou Xiu to sit down.
He flipped through a piece of paper, and translated it loudly: "Nurr1 protein may be a candidate for drug development, and Nurr1 deficiency may be one of the causes of Parkinson's disease..."
Xu Qing used his fingertips to swipe the sentences he translated one by one. Combined with the translation, it is easy for people to understand the full text.
Fortunately, Xu Qing has similar books in his spare time, and it is not so difficult to translate at this time. There was a faint smile on Xu Qing's face, he saw Zhou Xiu's eyes narrowed in doubt, and stopped.
"Tyrosine hydroxylase is tyrosine hydroxylase, does Xiuxiu understand?"
Zhou Xiu shook his head.
"Then we need to memorize the professional English vocabulary of biology, let's continue..."
After school, the students from the Wynner class next door passed the corridor in twos and threes.
Zhang Qi glanced subconsciously, but unexpectedly saw Xu Qing and Zhou Xiu sitting together to discuss the content.
Xi Shaoyuan also saw Zhou Xiu, and after a glance, he froze in place.
Someone shouted from behind: "Brother Yuan, everyone is waiting for you, come quickly!"
Xi Shaoyuan controlled the turbulent emotions in his heart, turned his head and walked down the stairs as if he didn't see anything.
Zhang Qi leaned on the window and whistled: "Xu Qing, are you going to play?"
Xu Qing chose to refuse.
Although he saw the teasing smile in Zhang Qi's eyes.
Xu Qinggang declined: "I'm not going to play—"
Zhou Xiu heard Zhang Qi's words and said, "Squad leader, you can go to play, it's all right here, thank you for your help."
Zhou Xiu tidied up her textbooks and left the classroom.
Xu Qing picked up her schoolbag and walked up to Zhang Qi. He took off his glasses and glanced at him.
Zhang Qi was taken aback by Xu Qing who took off his glasses, and saw that his eyes were cold and fixed on him.
Zhang Qi coughed, turned around and ran: "Aren't you going? It's fine if you don't go."
Xu Qing said to Zhang Qi lightly: "You probably haven't noticed that Xu Xu is in love with someone from another school."
Zhang Qi: "..."
he does not know! When did this happen! He quickly blocked Xu Qing's way, "Who is it?"
Xu Qing said lightly, "It's none of my business."
He picked up his schoolbag and walked down the stairs.
Zhang Qi blocked Xu Qing's way, "Xu Qing, don't do this, I was wrong. Tell me—"
…
After Zhou Xiu finished eating, he went for a walk on the playground to digest his food.
The system said to Zhou Xiu: [Youth, there is no skill that is easy and readily available.]
[Ding—Watch English movies without barriers, reward 2W RMB.]
[Ding—reach the level of fluent reading of 100 English original works, reward 2WRMB.]
[Ding—reaching the level of fluent reading of English literature, reward 5W RMB.]
By the way, the system searched [100 Best Movies for Learning English] and [100 Best Original Novels for Learning English].
Zhou Xiu who got these two lists: "..."
[In this regard, you are quite generous in rewards.]
System: [The reward is just ahead, waiting for you to get it! come on!]
After returning to the classroom, Zhou Xiu copied the two lists made by the system into the planner. She took out her phone, searched for the first movie on the list and watched it.
In the afternoon, the students of class 24 gradually came to the classroom.
Yu Qingyan poked her head, moved to Zhou Xiu's side curiously, and took a look.
She thought that Xueba was watching a lecture video of a famous professor at a certain university, but she didn't expect to see a man and a woman kissing passionately on the screen.
This is a classic scene in "Roman Holiday". After the absurd and joyful time, the hero and heroine finally face parting, and the hero restrains and sadly kisses the heroine.
Yu Qingyan: "..."
She actually saw Xueba watching a romantic movie! Still such a lingering scene!
Zhou Xiu quickly finished watching the movie and rubbed his temples, "What's wrong?"
Looking at her calm expression, Yu Qingyan suddenly had a thought in her heart: "Are you learning English?"
Zhou Xiu nodded.
Yu Qingyan patted Zhou Xiu's shoulder, "The small screen is nothing interesting, I'll take you to the movies this weekend."
Zhou Xiu also happened to have plans to watch movies, and she handed "100 Most Suitable Movies for Learning English" to Yu Qingyan.
The moment Yu Qingyan saw this list, she couldn't help being amused.
She said: "These classic movies can't be seen in cinemas, but go to on-demand halls or private theaters. Don't worry, leave them to me."
Tidbits also came over and said, "I also want to watch a movie with Xiuxiu."
Tan Ming hesitated for a while, and said, "Want to watch a movie, count me in."
Xu Qing also came to the classroom and heard several girls discussing watching a movie together. He asked, "What are you going to do, can I be one of them?"
Yu Qingyan complied all of them.
"Okay, let's go to the movies together."
Saturday.
After Zhou Xiu finished her homework, she got into Yu Qingyan's car. Yu Qingyan was very excited today, and deliberately put on light makeup.
Even Tan Ming could smell the faint perfume on her body.
Tan Ming frowned, subconsciously moved a few inches to the side. Zhou Xiu got into the car and sat beside Yu Qingyan.
After the scenery along the way became more and more familiar, Zhou Xiu finally understood why Yu Qingyan was so excited.
The car finally stopped at Xi's house.
We stopped in front of the garden with the iconic fountain and pool, surrounded by a green golf course, and the magnificent garden villas came into view.
It was too late for Zhou Xiu to leave, she got out of the car slowly. Thinking about whether to call the housekeeper and notify him in advance.
Huahua and the others had already arrived at Xi Shaoyuan's house, and Huahua happily took Zhou Xiu's hand.
Tidbits sighed while walking: "This is the first time I have come to Yuan Shao's house, it is really big. You should have been here before."
Zhou Xiu nodded.
When she first came to Xi's house, it took a long time to get used to it. It takes half an hour to run around the golf course, and the surrounding area is astonishingly large. It takes a long time to go to study every morning.
Tidbits pushed open the door of Xi's private movie theater. The butler was adjusting the movie. He said with a smile:
"The upcoming movie is "The Shawshank Redemption". If you need anything, please let me know."
Yu Qingyan waved to Zhou Xiu, found a comfortable seat and sat down. Zhou Xiu was relieved to see that the housekeeper did not take special care of her and was very enthusiastic.
Zhou Xiu watched the movie attentively. The movie started with a banker Andy killing his wife, but he didn't kill his wife. All the evidence pointed against him. He was sentenced to life imprisonment.
Deprived of his liberty, Andy is proficient in financial knowledge. With his knowledge, he helps prison guards avoid taxes reasonably, helps inmates set up libraries, and even helps wardens launder money. He has won the trust and appreciation of many people.
He was forcibly deprived of his freedom, but he was unwilling to be imprisoned mentally and physically. He spent twenty years silently digging a tunnel in prison to regain his freedom.
On the super-large screen, Andy's cellmate recalled him and said with emotion: "There is a kind of bird that can never be locked up, because every wing of it is covered with the light of freedom."
Zhou Xiu, who was watching this movie for the first time, froze her eyes and her heart was trembling after hearing this sentence.
She clenched her fists tightly.
Tidbits looked at Zhou Xiu's dazed expression, and couldn't help laughing: "Silly boy, do you look silly?"
She lowered her head to peel the fruit, and suddenly there was a "hiss", and the fruit knife cut her thumb.
Zhou Xiu, who was immersed in the movie, looked up and saw the blood on Tidaloo's fingertips. She stood up quickly and took out a tissue to wrap Tidaloo's thumb.
She said softly, "Xu Xu, wait, I'll go find a Band-Aid."
Zhou Xiu ran out of the theater, subconsciously went to her original room, opened the drawer quickly, and took out a pack of band-aids from it.
Tidbits saw Zhou Xiu running out suddenly, and she followed in a daze.
Zhou Xiu skillfully pasted the band-aid on Tidaloo's thumb, Tidal raised her eyebrows, and asked hesitantly, "How do you...know that there is a band-aid here?"
She glanced around, and the decoration style of this bedroom looked a bit like a girl's room.
Her gaze finally landed on the open drawer, which was Xiuxiu's handwriting.
Zhou Xiu absently put the band-aids back in the drawer, she has already found that the room is still the same, not much has changed.
Her own money box, with the word "Xi" written on the simple box, the money inside was lying intact. Beside it is a jewelry box.
She glanced at it for a moment, it was what Zhou Xiu had seen in a dream.
Zhou Xiu opened it in a daze, and saw the bracelet worth 300,000 that once broke "Zhou Xiu"'s mind.
It looks familiar.
Zhou Xiu stared at it for a while, then thought for a while.
Tidaloo's eyes fell on the bracelet, looked at it for a while, and said slowly: "This is from the same series as Xiuxiu's Christmas necklace."
She came back to her senses when she heard Tidbit's words, her hands felt hot, and she quickly put down the jewelry box and closed the drawer.
