Rebirth Must Be Happy

Chapter 57 [057] Third Place (Seeking Today’s Follow-up Reading)
This time, Chen Xingzhu didn't let Xu Jinhuan see her off, and went to wait for the bus with Zhou Wei and the others.

Xu Jinhuan went home alone and told her mother the good news that she still had enough time to practice her cooking skills. After lunch, she took a nap as usual, and then took a piece of candy to take the afternoon exam.

"After the exams tomorrow, we'll have half a day off. Everyone, take a break. Students who have signed up for the campus meeting should also start preparing."

After the afternoon exam, there is only geography left to study tomorrow morning, so the atmosphere in the classroom is very relaxed during evening study.

Fu Qingxuan came to the classroom with a much more casual and relaxed expression. He gave a few instructions in the classroom and seemed to be saying something else. Suddenly, his face changed, and he quickly ran out, covering his mouth. Another sound of retching was heard.

"what happened?"

"You're not pregnant, are you?"

This was not the first time, and the students below were talking about it.

"It's possible!"

"No way, Master Fu is already in her thirties or forties, right?"

"Does Teacher Fu have any children?"

"do not know……"

Tang Jingming saw everyone talking and stood up. It seemed that he wanted to go over and show some concern like Ruan Jingqiu did last time. However, just as he walked up to the podium, he saw the math teacher coming to the classroom door with a stack of test papers.

"Have you finished grading the math papers?"

"It's been two days."

"I wonder how many points I'll get in the exam?"

The students in the classroom immediately became agitated and looked outside nervously.

"Please pass out the test papers."

The math teacher was a thin old man named Wei. He did not enter the classroom but chatted with Teacher Fu at the door. When he saw Tang Jingming coming out, he handed the test paper to him.

However, he still kept a few test papers in his hand and did not give them to Tang Jingming.

Tang Jingming knew that those should be the test papers of the top ten students. This was Old Man Wei's habit of reading out the names of the top ten students and then handing out the test papers. So he agreed and came back to hand out the test papers.

He estimated that his test paper should be among the top ten, and he was in a very happy mood. Seeing that everyone was looking at him eagerly, he found the long-lost feeling of being a class monitor again and said with a smile: "Don't worry, everyone, pass the test paper around."

Instead of distributing the test papers one by one himself, he divided the pile of test papers into several stacks, handed them to the students in the front row, and then passed them around in a messy manner.

"Fuck!"

Li Hang first received his own test paper. Looking at the three bright red numbers "121" on it, he sighed in despair, "So low?"

His scores are usually above 130.

"Much better than me."

Wang Yuan was even more depressed, "I only got 102 points!"

The two of them discussed and turned back to look at Xu Jinhuan and Xie Zhiqiang, "Where are you two?"

"not yet."

Xie Zhiqiang answered nervously. Just as he was speaking, a test paper was handed to him from across the aisle: "Xie Zhiqiang, 92!"

"..."

Although Xie Zhiqiang guessed that he might not do well in the exam this time, he did not expect it to be so low.

He took the test paper, still holding some hope, expecting that it was someone else joking, but then the bright red number "92" came into view.

"So low?"

Xie Zhiqiang couldn't help but grumble, carefully looking at the points he'd deducted, then looked up and asked Xu Jinhuan, "What about yours?"

"I'm waiting too."

Xu Jinhuan spread his hands, still feeling relatively calm. He had already figured it out, and it would be at least 135 or above.

“I think they’ve almost finished sending it out.”

Wang Yuan glanced ahead and said, "There should only be the top ten papers left. How could you possibly be in the top ten?"

Li Hangdao: "I guess someone leaked it."

Xie Zhiqiang overheard their conversation, thinking of Old Man Wei's habits, and suddenly a possibility occurred to him. He craned his neck and took a closer look at the classroom. Most of the students had received their papers, and no more papers were being passed around...

In other words, only the top ten test papers have not been distributed.

"This... is not true?"

Xie Zhiqiang turned his head and looked at Xu Jinhuan with a bit of disbelief.

As his deskmate, he witnessed with his own eyes how seriously and hard Xu Jinhuan had been reviewing during this period. But don't say that this is Suicheng No. 1 Middle School. Even in an ordinary provincial key school, there are many students who are serious and hardworking.

Will I get good grades if I study hard?

Will my grades improve if I study hard?
Although it is not positive energy, the cruel reality is that they are not equal!
Besides, Xu Jinhuan only started working hard after the Qingming Festival holiday, so only half a month has passed...

How can it be?

"Have you all received your test papers?"

Old Man Wei quickly walked into the classroom with the last few test papers and asked as usual, "Did you do well on the test?"

"not good……"

The students below answered weakly, in unison, and very uniformly.

“This test paper is indeed difficult.”

Old Man Wei offered some comfort before turning the tables: "However, I didn't expect you to do so poorly on the test. Our class's average math score was only 128.1, a drop of 7.5 points... Do you understand what that means?"

The old man was chattering away at the top, and the students below were silent.

"I lost 13 points!"

Li Hang complained in his heart. He didn't expect that he didn't even reach the average score this time.

'I lost 16 points!'

Xie Zhiqiang silently calculated the gap in his scores and felt even more upset.

"but,"

At this time, Old Man Wei made another turn, "Although our scores have regressed a lot, our grade ranking has risen by five places to sixth in the entire grade. This is still worthy of praise."

There are more than 20 classes in the second year of high school, and nearly 20 science classes. This ranking is already very high, only one step away from the top five. No wonder the old man looks in a good mood.

"This is mainly due to the fact that some students have made great progress,"

Old Man Wei spread out the test papers in his hand, quickly flipped to a paper, took it out, and then, with everyone looking up at him, called out the name, "Xu Jinhuan... Which student? Stand up, let me see..."

???

Everyone in the classroom looked towards the right back corner of the classroom. They didn't expect to hear this name at this time.

Xie Zhiqiang and Li Hang also looked up and looked back at Xu Jinhuan in disbelief.

Xu Jinhuan was also a little bit unbelievable. It was not because of his own score that he was surprised, but because he was surprised that it was already the second semester of his senior year in high school, and his math teacher didn't even know who he was.

Poor grades are also a label. Does Old Man Wei not care so much about students with poor grades?
When it comes to improving average scores, it is much simpler and more effective for poor students to make progress than for top students!
After all, making a pot of porridge is troublesome, but it only takes a rat dropping or a booger to ruin it.

This exam is a good example. My own improvement in grades has led to a huge leap forward in the entire class rankings...

Xu Jinhuan secretly complained and stood up, "Teacher Wei, it's me."

"Very good, come up."

Old Man Wei looked him over, nodded, and then looked at the students below and said, "I know this score may exceed your expectations. To avoid any doubts, let me explain in advance. After the scores came out, I carefully consulted your homeroom teacher, Xu Jinhuan's invigilator, and other subject teachers. I have basically ruled out the possibility that Xu Jinhuan plagiarized..."

What he meant was that after the scores came out, he couldn't believe it and suspected that Xu Jinhuan had plagiarized, so he tried to find a way to verify it.

The students below suddenly became even more curious. How many points did Xu Jinhuan get in the exam?

"I'll read them in order of scores. First place: Ruan Jingqiu, 150 points."

Old Man Wei began to read out the names from the beginning. He read them out very casually at first, and everyone listened calmly. Although they were surprised that someone could get full marks on such a difficult test, they were not surprised at all. They had long been accustomed to it. "Second place, Bo Shanshan, 148 points; third place..."

When it came to the third place, Old Man Wei paused, then looked at Xu Jinhuan who happened to be walking in front of him, and then looked at the students below, "Xu Jinhuan, 140 points."

Today's follow-up reading data will determine whether there will be recommendations for next week. I hope everyone can help turn to the latest page. The better the results, the more motivation I will have to write. Thank you~
