Probably taking into account the inconsistent progress of middle schools in different regions, the Jiangcheng Normal University No. 1 High School's admissions examination for county students in 2011 only included three subjects: Chinese, mathematics and English.
However, because there are fewer subjects, the actual exam difficulty is not low. Mathematics even slightly involves some high school inequality knowledge, but this has appeared in previous years' exams, so it is not unexpected.
Before the exam, Mei Fang, Lin Youxi and Xia Yuan had already done countless questions. They had seen similar question types in this exam, especially the big and difficult questions in mathematics. After the exam, the three of them checked the answers briefly. Except for Xia Yuan who was slightly inferior in mathematics, most of the questions were fine.
Xia Yuan was relatively satisfied with her performance in the exam. After the exam, she kept leaning on Youxi's shoulders and sticking close to her.
"I really envy you guys... I am completely free now."
Xia Yuan had an art test and interview the next day, so she couldn't completely relax. Lin Youxi patted Xia Yuan's hand to encourage her.
The three of them were admiring the campus of Jiangcheng Normal University No. 1 High School. It happened that the school was dismissing for the afternoon and the high school students of Jiangcheng Normal University No. 1 High School appeared one after another.
Jiangcheng Normal School No. 1 has a uniform requirement for wearing school uniforms, but Xia Yuan doesn’t think it’s excessive, and even feels a little envious.
"Their school uniforms are so pretty, they look like the sailor uniforms from Sakura Country! Oh yeah, I heard that many campus-themed youth romance dramas are also filmed here."
"Indeed, it's this environment."
Mei Fang paused and said, "Jiangcheng Normal School No. 1 has always upheld the concept of giving time to students. Not only does it not occupy any holidays and weekends, they never have exams for evening self-study in the first and second year of high school. If you are brave enough, it doesn't matter if you don't come."
"How did they get into so many good universities when they have such a relaxed environment? It's even more comfortable than our junior high school!"
"After all, the students here are the best in the entire Chubei Province. The rest depends on your own initiative. If you don't have enough self-control and rely entirely on the teacher's supervision to study hard, then even if your grades are good, you are probably not suitable for this school."
"You're worried about ruining the game, right?"
Xia Yuan nodded, "Fortunately, we have a three-person team to supervise each other! By the way, who do you think will fail first if we don't encourage each other to study? I vote for Ah Fang."
Mei Fang was very surprised when he heard this, "Ah? Have you always felt this way?"
Xia Yuan nodded, "Think about it, when you were in elementary school, you always skipped your homework, played games and wrote code during holidays. If I hadn't reminded you and supervised you in class every day, and urged you to do your homework, you would never study well!"
"I'm learning efficiently. I can actually learn everything I learned in elementary school in two years, right?"
“But I think I’m important too.”
Xia Yuan puffed up her cheeks, "Don't you think so?"
Forget it, I’m too lazy to argue with a kid.
Mei Fang helplessly spread his hands to express his agreement, "That does make sense... What about you, Youxi? Do you also think I'll fail?"
Lin Youxi shook her head, "I think it's me who is going to fail."
"ah?"
Lin Youxi's words surprised Xia Yuan and Mei Fang, "Do you think so?"
"I studied hard in primary school because of Yuanyuan's encouragement."
Lin Youxi smiled and said, "Yuanyuan has always been my role model and goal. I have been her little follower since I was a child. Seeing her study hard, I will study hard too."
"Those were things that happened when we were kids. They don't really matter..."
Xia Yuan was humble but his face was filled with excitement. He hugged Lin Youxi and kept hugging her. "After junior high school, you will be my role model, the super academic genius Lin Youxi."
"I think a role model is not necessarily someone with the best grades. What matters most is their attitude towards learning. Yuanyuan is still a role model."
"But, learning attitude must also be transformed into actual learning results!"
"I think Yuanyuan has done a great job. Think about it..."
Mei Fang was watching the two girls praising each other and couldn't help but interrupt, "Don't either of you think I can be a role model? I think I'm amazing too."
"Go away, Ah Fang! It's none of your business!"
Mei Fang was chased and beaten by the two girls, and Xia Yuan finally talked about the arrangements.
"I have an exam tomorrow, but I can finish the art test in the morning. I made an appointment with Youxi on the way here to go to Happy Valley after I finish the exam. Ah Fang, you want to come too?"
"Uh, Happy Valley..."
Mei Fang covered her mouth and waved her hands, "I can go with you, but I won't take part in some projects."
"Hey...ah...ah..."
Xia Yuan imitated the tone of the girls in Japanese comics and looked at Mei Fang carefully, "My little classmate Afang, you are not afraid to ride the roller coaster, right?"
"Afang has been timid since he was young, so let's not force him. We can have fun together."
Lin Youxi's persuasion sounded like a mockery, and Mei Fang couldn't tolerate it.
"Hey, what's wrong with you two... Have we watched all those horror movies in vain? I don't know which two little crybabies were so scared that day that they cried so hard after watching a horror movie. They couldn't sleep at night and asked me to sleep with them..."
Mei Fang wiped away her tears while speaking, "Oh, I feel so wronged, so wronged—"
"Well, then it's just like the first time watching a horror movie! We'll be fine after this!"
"Go, why shouldn't I go?" Mei Fang pinched Xia Yuan's cheek and said, "First of all, I'm not forced to go by your provocation, and then-"
Mei Fang was halfway through her words when she was interrupted by a high school senior who came over quickly:
"Hey, who is that? Why aren't you guys wearing school uniforms? Which class are you from?"
Mei Fang and his group quickly explained: "I, we are not high school students yet... We are here to take the entrance exam for special county students."
“Are you junior high school students?”
The senior with glasses pushed her glasses up and looked at the three little ones carefully. One was 1.7 meters tall, one had long legs, and one had a C-cup. Thinking about her own thin and small body, she couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Are all junior high school students so well developed now..."
In order to avoid being too excited and affecting his performance in the exam, Xia Yuan had to end the topic of going out to play early.
Mei Lijun's schedule was tight, and after accompanying Mei Fang to take the exam, he was going to go back home to spend two days with his daughter. Liang Meijuan felt that she should not stay in Jiangcheng any longer and make Xia Xun spend money, so she said that she wanted to take Mei Lijun's car and go home together.
On the morning when Xia Xun accompanied his daughter to the exam, Lin Youxi accompanied Liang Meijuan to the mall to buy clothes. Mei Fang and Mei Lijun, father and son, slept in the room until 11 o'clock. When Lin Youxi and the others came back from shopping for clothes, Mei Lijun took the two families to have a meal.
When Xia Xun and Mei Lijun first met in kindergarten, Mei Lijun was just a small clerk, while Xia Xun was already a well-known and promising young boss in the county.
So, even though he is now the deputy director, and even though Xia Xun's way of addressing him has changed from "Dad Mei Fang" to "Brother Li Jun" and then to "Director Mei", he has been extremely respectful to him along the way. He doesn't like to put on airs in front of Xia Xun, and lets Xia Xun take the lead in everything. The two of them always feel a little unfamiliar.
And now was a rare opportunity for him to take the dominant position in front of several families. His closeness to Youxi's father Lin Guochuan made him feel no sense of distance when talking to Liang Meijuan. They kept chatting at the dinner table. Liang Meijuan was terribly afraid of this deputy director, so she kept nodding her head and did not dare to object.
Although my dad has tried very hard, he now gives people the impression of being more like a noisy uncle next door rather than a deputy director.
"Oh... I really hope that these three children can also be admitted to Jiangcheng Normal University, so that they can take care of each other in Jiangcheng."
Mei Lijun couldn't help but sigh, "Sister Meijuan, you don't know that these three kids grew up together and are almost inseparable. My Mei Fang is also weird. Other boys fight and play games with other boys, but he likes to play with Yuanyuan Youxi..."
"Dad, please stop talking and just eat your meal properly." Mei Fang expressed his dissatisfaction with his father's noisy attitude.
"Oh, your sister Meijuan doesn't know what happened between you two. It's okay for me to talk about it."
Mei Lijun took advantage of the excitement and continued, "I still remember that when we were in the fourth grade, we were planning to move. If it weren't for Youxi and Xia Yuan from your family who kept crying and begging my wife, we would have really moved away..."
Mei Fang felt unhappy when he heard his father bragging. This damn father really didn't mention the Xiali car at all, right
"Yes, yes, do you still remember what happened at that time?"
Lin Youxi nodded, "I remember, Uncle Mei... I was very sad the day I found out. I was having dinner at your house that day, but when I heard about it, I ran away crying."
"Oh, yes, yes, and about that matter, did our boy catch up with you in the end?"
Lin Youxi nodded and said, "I caught up with Uncle Mei. I hugged him and cried, asking him not to leave."
"Oh, I haven't heard of this before!" Meilijun was very happy to eat the melon.
"Is this something you can say, Yes—"
Mei Fang kept winking at Lin Youxi, but Lin Youxi drank the soup calmly without panicking at all.
"Look at my kid. He gets angry when I talk about the past. Why are you always acting like a child? You need to be more mature like Youxi. Hahaha!"
As Meilijun spoke, he burst into laughter again, and these laughs really showed his leadership style.
"Looking at what my kid is saying, I don't know who he will be with in the end... It's hard to choose, right!"
Liang Meijuan was a little flustered after hearing this, "This... It's not good to say this kind of thing, Director Mei..."
"Just call me Li Jun. No need to call me Director. It sounds weird, haha!"
As the family that was trying to get the cabbage, Mei Lijun was not panicked at all and continued to speak freely, "I think you have such a good relationship, you must have thought about this, right?"
"Uncle Mei, we have to focus on our studies now and not think about these things."
Lin Youxi gave a reminder.
"Hahahaha! We're talking about the future."
Mei Lijun said with a smile, "Anyway, uncle thinks that you and Yuanyuan are both excellent. Our kid is very lucky to know you two. First of all, if he dares to treat you badly, I will definitely beat him up. But you guys should not get jealous over this kid. It's not worth it—"
"Dad, it's really rude to talk about this topic again."
Mei Fang stepped on Mei Lijun's foot and said filially, "Aren't you afraid that I will complain to my mother?"
"You are such a... Okay, okay, let's stop talking... Let's eat."
So the two families continued to eat. Lin Youxi did not feel unhappy at all because of Mei Lijun's overly explicit topic. She smiled at Mei Fang and stood up to pick up a big chicken leg for Mei Fang.
It can be said that she is very skilled, like a young wife.
I'm so sorry everyone! I'm late for the update again! I caught a cold and had a severe insomnia last night, so I woke up at 11:30 this morning. I haven't eaten or brushed my teeth yet, so I'm updating here. 3,000 words is not bad, haha.
I will definitely not be late for 6:30 in the afternoon, and if the coal boss wins the championship tonight, I will add another chapter.
