Rebirth: Those Years When I Was a Bad Student

After the bell rang, when Zhang Yumian was reaching out from the hole in the desk to get a book, he found the test paper at the bottom.

When she took it out and took a look at it, all her long-forgotten dark history came to her mind. This math test paper was the lowest score she had ever received, and she did not guess any of the 30 multiple-choice questions in English correctly, and she missed the answer perfectly every time.

The creatures are even scarier.

I say this because there was a multiple-choice question asking what fish gills are used for, and she actually chose drinking water.

In my last life, I was held back and wanted to prepare for the exams during the holidays. When I was looking for books, I found these test papers. When I saw the answers to the biology questions, I was speechless. That’s why I decided to study hard and make up for my previous shame.

Now it seems that repeating a grade was the best decision I made. Otherwise, I would definitely not be able to go to high school with my grades. If I went out to work, given my mental state at the time, I would have been sold out and still helping others count money.

Zhang Yumian took out her math book and flipped through it. This semester's class was about solving equations, square roots, and inequalities. Because it was just the beginning, the content was relatively simple. As for the other knowledge besides calculation, I believe that after reading the book twice, I should be able to understand more than 70% of it. If it was a high school course, she really didn't have the courage to say this, but there was still some content for the first grade of junior high school.

A moment later, the math teacher entered the classroom and said hoarsely, "I'm sorry, students. I have a cold today and my throat is uncomfortable. I won't teach you now. In this class, we will review the contents of Chapter 2. If you don't understand something, remember to ask. If you fail the final exam, one point will be a penalty. You have to make up for it until you pass."

Zhang Yumian remembered that there would be a new math teacher next semester, so there would probably be no chance.

However, the new teacher is much more difficult than him, and she is the principal's wife. But I have to admit that everyone's grades have improved, and it is true that "strict teachers produce excellent students."

Having not touched mathematics for many years, Zhang Yumian opened the book and read the examples in the second chapter according to the teacher's progress, and then made up for the rest of the first chapter.

More than twenty minutes later, Zhang Yumian finished reading the example questions in Chapter 2, stretched and twisted his neck.

This was a habit she developed when she was a worker. Her neck would hurt if she sat for too long, so she would move around from time to time.

The moment she turned around, she saw someone she was very familiar with, but who might not even know her, Cheng Yao.

How could he not be familiar? This was the person who trapped her youth.

But I didn't even have the chance to say goodbye.

When Zhang Yumian realized she liked him, he was already in high school. Fortunately, her grades improved and she applied to the same high school.

When she enrolled, he was already in his third year of high school. This is the tragedy of being held back two grades.

During every break, I would walk around to the senior high school building or stroll around the playground alone, just for the chance encounter.

He went abroad after graduating from high school and I haven't seen him since.

The last time I heard news about him was when someone in the junior high school class group said that they saw him bringing his girlfriend home. There was a photo of them at the dining table, and there were elders too. It must be a meeting with his parents.

I didn't expect to see him again when I woke up.

At this time he probably doesn't know that his current parents are just adoptive parents and his biological father will be back next semester, but he doesn't know who his mother is.

I heard that his father was a successful businessman, and some of his classmates started to interact with him, but he was still very cold and aloof, like the moon in the water, and there was always a sense of distance between them.

Although we have been classmates for two years, the number of times we have spoken to each other is so limited that it can probably be counted on one hand.

One is timid and introverted, the other is aloof and taciturn, so it's natural that they are amazing.

Ten minutes before the end of get out of class, the math teacher stood up and started writing on the blackboard.

Then he knocked on the desk with the blackboard eraser and said, "Stop for a moment and look at these questions. They are all on the exam. Who will come up and do the first question?"

After he finished speaking, no one went up. At this time, Zhang Yumian remembered that this was a class for poor students, and the top student in the class was ranked outside the top 50 in the grade.

If it weren't for the dark horse Cheng Yao who appeared later, their class would have had no presence in the entire grade.

Except for the top ten students in the class whose grades were decent, everyone else was in a terrible state. It was so bad that after two and a half years, more than half of them did not go to high school.

After thinking about it, Zhang Yumian raised his hand to indicate that he knew how to do it.

Just as she stood up to walk onto the podium, she heard her deskmate Zhang Wentian muttering, "What's wrong with this kid? He hasn't woken up yet. Why are we, a bunch of poor students, running over to join in the fun?"

Zhang Yumian turned around and said, "What's wrong with being a poor student? Even a poor student can turn over a new leaf. A poor student can also become a top student."

Maybe because he has been in society for a long time, Zhang Yumian is no longer as timid as before, and his voice has become louder.

So many people heard what she said, and there was a lot of laughter.

She went on her own and wrote down the answers from 9 to 43, because she had just done a similar question.

Just as I was about to put down the chalk and go downstairs, the math teacher said, "The answer is correct, write down the process."

Zhang Yumian: "Oh"

He turned around and wrote out the process. According to the non-negativity of the absolute value and the square... so... he got the result... After finishing writing, Zhang Yumian walked straight down the podium and returned to his seat. Fortunately, he was back to junior high school. If he was in high school, he would only be an even worse student than before.

In fact, this question is not difficult, and someone will definitely be able to do it, but I don’t know why everyone is unwilling to interact with the teacher at this time.

The math teacher walked to the center of the podium and said, "The idea of ​​this question is very clear. It tests the concepts of absolute value and non-negative numbers, but there is one thing to note..."

Zhang Wentian lowered his voice and said, "Sure, deskmate, now you really need to turn things around."

Zhang Yumian looked at him sideways and said, "Why are you and I sitting at the same table?"

Before, Zhang Yumian was too timid to express her own ideas, but now it is not the same. She has to be comfortable no matter what if she wants to do it again.

Isn't life meant to be a struggle? So this time I must make a flower bloom.

Zhang Wentian gnashed his teeth and said, "What do you mean? I haven't felt wronged at all, but you feel wronged."

Just as Zhang Yumian was about to say something to him, the math teacher came down and looked at Zhang Wentian with disapproval, "You're not paying attention in class. What are you talking about? Do you think you've learned well? Can you get a perfect score on the final exam? Stand outside."

Zhang Wentian even pretended to pick up the math book and pulled the bench back, making a squeaking sound to express his inner indignation.

Zhang Yumian picked up the book to cover half of her face and smiled in an unkind way. Her shoulders were shaking from laughing. Zhang Wentian was so angry that his teeth were itching.

At this time, the math teacher came down and pointed at Zhang Yumian with a book, "Stand up and tell me the idea for the third question."

Zhang Yumian stood up and took a look at the question. She couldn't help but feel relieved. She had just finished reading a similar example question, which avoided the possibility of going out to accompany Zhang Wentian.

Organize the language: "AB is parallel to cd. Since two lines are parallel, the interior angles on the same side are complementary, so..., it can be concluded that the other two angles are 80 degrees and 65 degrees respectively."

The math teacher stared at Zhang Yumian for a few more seconds, adjusted the frame of his glasses and said, "Okay, sit down and listen carefully in class."

After class, Zhang Wentian came back and sat in his seat. He stared at Zhang Yumian and said, "We have been desk mates for almost a year. We were promoted from the same elementary school. How come I didn't realize that you are a top student?"

After thinking about it, he said, "This is not right. Your score in the midterm exam was not as good as mine. You didn't know the answer to the teacher's questions yesterday. How come you suddenly seem to have opened up your Ren and Du meridians?" As he spoke, he gestured.

Zhang Yumian smiled and replied, "This should be the Sunflower Acupoint Pressing Technique."
