Chapter 6 Surprising Learning
Zheng Shui Rong was shocked, it wasn't that she had a short sight, but it was really because she had never known that her daughter could rank in the class. Her daughter had never told her about her exam results before, let alone ranking, so naturally she didn't know.
Zheng Shuirong's family was poor, but she had attended junior high school. However, her brain didn't work well, so her grades were always very poor. As soon as she graduated, she didn't want to read books anymore. Even in junior high school, it was her mother who used a thin whip to make her finish. Moreover, her daughter's father also had poor grades, so in her subconscious mind, her daughter's grades shouldn't be good either. Therefore, at home, no one would think of asking about Wang Zhen's grades.
But unexpectedly, being among the top five in class was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day to Zheng Shui Rong, who often failed her exams when she was still in school, and her mind suddenly went blank with a loud buzzing noise.
Zheng Shui Rong felt that every time she heard her older sister Zheng Shui Lian boasting about her son's grades, eighth or tenth place, she thought her sister was not only beautiful and smart but also married well and had a smart son with a bright future. However, she never cared about whether her own daughter studied well or not.
Wang Zhen did not expect that one sentence would cause Zheng Shui Rong to feel unprecedented guilt and self-blame, and also laid the groundwork for her own future studies.
"Alright, alright, be more serious from now on. Eat, let's eat." Zheng Shui Rong didn't know how to express the struggle within her heart, nor did she know how to face a child like this.
If she still doesn't speak up like before, just doing things without asking or saying much, perhaps Zheng Shuirong would never think of asking about her achievements in this lifetime. But Zheng Shuirong did ask, and her own daughter didn't disappoint her!
Wang Zhen looked at her mother's momentarily stunned expression and roughly guessed what she was thinking. Perhaps it couldn't change her mom's mind for the time being, but that didn't mean it wouldn't change over time.
So, life is not always fate playing tricks on people, but rather it's oneself who decides one's own destiny!
That night, after dinner, Wang Zhen also cleverly boiled water for Zheng Shui Rong to wash up. After a while, she cooled down and went back to her room to continue studying, making plans for her studies. Wang Zhen was eager to change her future, but still had to take things one step at a time, eating one mouthful of rice at a time, walking one step at a time, and continuing to read books.
It's surprising that my memory is surprisingly good, although it can't be said to be a glance at ten lines and forget, but as long as I look at it a few more times, I can remember seven or eight of them, especially the ones I think are key points, with attention, just one look, can be imprinted in my mind.
The next day.
On the first day of school, Wang Zhen got up and her mother was already gone.
Fortunately, this was just a vegetable market in the town, so all the markets were only open for half a day. After noon, there were not many people selling vegetables on the street, and Zheng Shuirong had to get up early to prepare.
Zheng Shui Rong gets up at 3 am every day, rides that broken bicycle to the wholesale market 30 miles away from the town to pick vegetables, and then sets up a stall in the town's vegetable market. The pot still has some leftover food from her breakfast, Wang Zhen eats some, packs up her books, and casually puts an English book for first-year high school students in her backpack.
For her, it's no longer necessary to attend junior high school classes. It's better to take advantage of class time to memorize more vocabulary words, as English will be essential in the 21st century.
"Wang Zhen!" Wang Xia's voice echoed from outside the courtyard.
Every year when school starts, Wang Xia would call her up and they would go to school together, passing by the outer courtyard of Wang Zhen's residence.
"Ah, here I come." Wang Zhen happily put on his backpack, a new life, starting from now.
Come on! Cheer up! Encourage yourself from the bottom of your heart!
Wang Xia glanced at her and saw that although Wang Zhen's face was still calm, there was a hint of a smile in the corner of her eyes. She teased: "Hey, did you pick up some money today? You look so happy."
Wang Zhen raised her eyes and glanced at Wang Xia, twitching the corner of her mouth: "Let's go, if I pick up money, I'll definitely tell you." Then she didn't say anything else.
"Little Xiaoqin." Wang Guodong called out from behind Wang Xia.
"Good morning, Dongzi." Wang Zhen also responded. Previously, Wang Guodong was not with them, after all, he was two years younger, so the school time was always different. But today, Wang Guodong was taken to school by his sister: "From now on, we're in the same school, let's go to and from school together."
The kingdom east muttered to himself as he walked ahead, "Anyway, I don't want to go with you guys either, the evil old society capitalist is my sister, how can I not go..."
"Slap!" Wang Xia slapped the back of Wang Guodong's head: "Hey, are you still feeling wronged? Is it easy for your parents to make money? I told you to attend school on time, and you still got it wrong!"
"Right, right, sister is always right, I'm wrong, haha..." Wang Guodong suddenly became a yes-man.
Wang Zhen smiled and thought that her life was not so miserable after all, at least there were these two lively siblings to keep her company, and every day was filled with some joy.
Three people walked along the countryside path, laughing and joking, the air was particularly fresh and crisp, the autumn weather made Wang Zhen feel grateful once again, fortunately she had a second chance, otherwise she would still be that foolish person who couldn't appreciate beauty!
Arrived at school, the three of them went their separate ways and agreed to head back together after school.
Wang Zhen walked towards her own seat, and next to it sat Liu Wenbo, the classmate assigned by the teacher yesterday.
The two desks were put together, with classmates in front and back, while Wang Zhen's desk was against the window, so the only passage was Liu Wenbo's position.
"Excuse me." Wang Zhen's indifferent voice sounded in Liu Wenbo's ear.
Liu Wenbo, still in a daze, suddenly saw Wang Zhen and quickly stood up, taking two steps forward. After Wang Zhen sat down in her own seat, she said "thank you" and began to take out the Chinese textbook for morning reading class.
Liu Wenbo didn't know why he had such a reaction, and for a moment, he was secretly annoyed with himself. It was too embarrassing! When someone asked you to give way, you should just do it! And yet, he gave in so quickly. His mind was preoccupied with other things, but his mouth said, "You're welcome, it's only right." After speaking, he couldn't help but want to slap himself.
Liu Wenbo cursed himself for being too cheap!
The head teacher of the early reading class just came to take a look, and saw that all the students were studying hard. Before leaving the classroom, he glanced at Wang Zhen and Liu Wenbo, nodded secretly, and thought to himself: "Not bad, they're still getting along quite well for now."
The first lesson was Chinese class, and the head teacher Yang Yang came to start the lesson. Yang Yang graduated from Normal University and has been teaching for over 20 years, with rich teaching experience. Not only is she the head teacher, but also the director of the school office, so the Chinese scores of Class One, Grade Three have always been the best in the whole grade.
One reason is that Yang Yang has rich teaching experience, which makes students understand, and another reason is that Yang Yang has a violent temper, so students generally listen to him. In 97, students were still very obedient and lovely, unlike the later generations who learned all sorts of things from computers and TVs, at this time, students were still very innocent.
