Rebirth: Those Years When I Was a Bad Student

Maybe it was really because of the encouragement. When Zhang Yumian walked into the classroom, Zheng Yue and Zhang Wentian were already reciting their lessons at their seats. Seeing this, she suddenly smiled.

It would be nice if they could go to the same high school.

Looking at her serious deskmate, Zhang Yumian took out her notes and gave them to her, because Zheng Yue sometimes liked to daydream in class, just like her in her previous life.

Looking at the secret book given by his deskmate, Zheng Yue felt like he had found a treasure. "Mianmian, you are so kind. I will treat you to jasmine tea."

Seeing Cheng Yao coming in, Zhang Wentian asked, "Do we still need to continue reviewing English in the next two weeks?"

Zhang Yumian replied, "You have to prepare for the midterm exam in the next two weeks, so stop for a moment. I'll tell you the key points of political history, as well as how to answer the big questions."

Zheng Yue exclaimed: "Mianmian, you are the best in the universe. I must have done a lot of good things in my previous life to meet such a good deskmate like you."

Zhang Wentian said sourly, "Why didn't you say it before? Now that you're sitting next to her, you should say it."

It's not that I didn't say it before, it's just that I didn't know how to do it. These skills and methods for answering questions were discovered after she failed a grade in her previous life. When the teacher marks the papers, he first likes the neatness of the papers, and secondly, the big questions at the back. It's useless to write long paragraphs.

The teacher just needs to find the key points and the points he wants.

Zhang Yumian took out his politics and history books and notes and turned around and said, "Let's start with politics. I'll tell you the main points first."

After marking the key points of history, Zhang Yumian took Zhang Wentian's exercise book and said, "You can't just copy down the answers to the big questions like he did. The examiner has to look through so many test papers. At first, he can look for the answers one by one, but he will get annoyed after looking at them too much."

"It is important to be clear and organized. The key is to examine the question carefully. Once you know what answer he wants, fill it in. Another point is that generally one point corresponds to one answer, but this is not absolute. You must learn to summarize the key points and not write down what is not necessary. This will save time when reviewing and you will have less content to memorize."

Zheng Yue suddenly realized, "I wrote so much before, but I was only given one or two points. I saw other people get four or five points for just one or two sentences. It turns out that I didn't write to the point."

Zhang Wentian said, "I've learned it. I'll treat you to a meal after the exam."

Zheng Yue said, "Mianmian is better. Some people are not willing to explain your problems to you even though they have good grades. Not to mention Mianmian, who will break it down for you to review."

Zhang Yumian said, "Isn't there a saying that goes, 'Give someone a rose, and the fragrance will linger on your hand. Besides, we are classmates, so isn't it my duty to help you?"

Zheng Yue stretched out her right index finger and shook it, saying, "No, no, no, it's not like that at all, okay? If you ask Feng Xiaomin, she'll say no, she hopes everyone scores worse than her."

Zheng Yue suddenly asked, "Mianmian, if someone has better grades than you, would you be anxious?"

Zhang Yumian thought for a moment and said, "Of course not. There are many people in this world who are better than you. I won't worry about this because I think a person's biggest enemy should be himself. As long as I am better today than I was yesterday, that's enough. As for other people, you have to know that there are always people better than you. I know my own strengths and weaknesses."

The best state is to do your best. Although good competition is conducive to progress, she always feels that the greatest sense of superiority comes from surpassing her past self.

Those outstanding people are the goals to move forward and the role models to set.

Cheng Yao listened to her words and unconsciously wrote on the paper that a person's greatest enemy is himself.

During the afternoon self-study class, Zhang Wentian said, "Don't say that Wang Shuxia is really amazing. Look at the exercises I just did. I checked the answers and got 70% of them right. I did them all by myself without looking at the answers."

Teacher Wang does have his own teaching methods. I guess the math scores of their class will improve this time, otherwise it would be unfair to them for their hard work during this period.

In order to avoid being remembered by Teacher Wang or becoming her favorite, we spent all our free time in class studying mathematics.

People who don’t know will only think how much they like math, but only they themselves know how much they hate math.

After school, Zheng Yue said, "The exam is in a week. It would be great if I could come to the classroom to review on the weekend. I can ask Mianmian if I have questions."

On second thought, "Mianmian, how about you come to my house on Saturday or I go to your house to do homework."

Zhang Wentian interrupted, "Can I go?"

Zhang Yumian thought it was not impossible.

Cheng Yao said, "Let's go to my house. Grandpa and I are the only ones there."

The three of them looked at him in confusion. Seeing the confusion in their eyes, Cheng Yao explained, "I moved out and now live in Yujing Hua Ting."

Cheng Yao told them about the situation at home again.

Surprisingly, Zhang Yumian acted very calm, as if she had always known about this.

It was not until they left school and separated from Cheng Yao and the others that Zheng Yue asked curiously, "So, Cheng Yao's parents are not his parents. No, how should I put it, it means, he is not his biological child?"

Although Zhang Yumian knew about this a long time ago, she still felt different when Cheng Yao said it today. But it was good this way, at least she had family to rely on and didn't have to worry about life problems.

Zhang Yumian replied, "Yes, that should be what it means."

Zheng Yue felt that Cheng Yao had lived a miserable life in recent years, a rich and noble man fallen into the mortal world.

They agreed to meet at Cheng Yao's house at ten o'clock tomorrow to do homework.

The next day, Zhang Yumian came back from running and took a shower, and then called Zhang Qingfeng to get up quickly. Originally, he said yesterday that Cheng Yao could help them with the questions, so he would not go, and he had to stay at home to look after his brother Zhang Qingfeng.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yao said he could bring his younger brother with him.

Mr. and Mrs. Zhang Guohua said that they would start their break this afternoon, so we went to the store in the morning and had breakfast there.

Thinking they might not have eaten yet, I brought some breakfast from the store over.

After arriving at Cheng Yao's house according to the address, Zhang Wentian and his friends were not there yet. Grandpa Cheng had gone out to play chess with his friends. Zhang Yumian took the breakfast and said, "This is just from my store. If you haven't eaten it yet, you can have some. It should taste good."

Zhang Qingfeng said, "Brother Cheng Yao, good morning"

Cheng Yao took the breakfast and said, "Good morning, thank you. Come in and sit anywhere."

Zhang Yumian took a look and asked, "Do you want to change your shoes?"

Cheng Yao found the slippers that Cheng Mingjiang bought before he left from the shoe cabinet. He bought five pairs when he went to the supermarket last time and wondered why he bought so many.

Cheng Mingjiang said what if some classmates or friends come to visit.

At the time, he thought it was too redundant.

I didn't expect it would come in handy so soon. I smiled just thinking about it.

After entering the room, I found Zhang Yumian and Zhang Qingfeng put their schoolbags on the sofa. Cheng Yao came from the kitchen with a water cup and said, "Drink some water. There are drinks in the refrigerator. If you want to drink, take them yourself. Don't be polite."

When I heard the knock on the door, I turned around and opened it.

Zhang Qingfeng asked quietly, "Sister, it seems that Brother Cheng Yao's family is doing well, why did you go to work on the construction site before?"

Zhang Yumian said, "It was not good before, but it has become better now. I will talk to you when I get back. Do your homework well."

Hearing the voices coming from Zhang Wentian and his friends, Zhang Yumian stood up and went to the door and asked, "You two came together?"

Zhang Wentian smiled and said, "No, we met down there. Someone must have lost his way."

Zheng Yue replied unyieldingly, "Am I lost? I was just appreciating the neighborhood environment."

This Zhang Wentian just knows how to go against her every day, it's so annoying.

Cheng Yao came over and said, "Come in after you change your shoes. Zhang Yumian brought breakfast. Do you want to eat?"

Zheng Yue and Zhang Wentian got up late and had not eaten yet, so they went straight to the dining table.

Looking at the decoration and layout of the house, Zheng Yue sighed that Cheng Yao's biological father was really rich.

The furniture and appliances are all the latest models.

Zhang Wentian thought about his desk mate, and all of a sudden he was like a poor scholar turned into a nobleman as described in an opera.
