Chapter 30: Is it true?
Yang Wenmin didn't promise anything on the spot, but Lin An understood that 2,500 yuan a month was paid in advance for a year's salary, which Yang Wenmin could not refuse.
After all, it is not a trivial matter to resign and go to the sea, Yang Wenmin said that it would take three days to think about the time, and he had a conflict with his wife just because he had this idea before, but now he has to implement it in a real way.
It is said that in order to facilitate contact, Lin An would like to have a mobile phone. At this time, the phone bill and mobile phone were relatively expensive, but after the temple fair, he had this economic foundation.
But he lives at home, his identity is just a junior high school student who is about to take the high school entrance examination, and he carries a mobile phone with him all day long, and others will feel uncomfortable when they see it, and once he is discovered by his parents, it is also difficult to explain.
Yang Wenmin, an ordinary teacher, has a bad home environment due to his daughter's illness, and the landline phone is not installed.
The result of the discussion was that three days later, Lin An came to Danshan Town to find Yang Wenmin for an answer. And what the answer will be, the two of them are already very clear at this time.
When returning to Lingshui Town, after passing Changxi, Lin An went to an Internet café by the way, and was used to checking the mailbox, but there was still no movement inside.
On Monday, Lin An, who returned to school, had an uneventful day.
After school in the morning and afternoon, I don't know if Li Man deliberately avoided going back with him again, and as soon as the school bell rang, he left early with his schoolbag.
On Tuesday, Labor Day was ushered in.
The first and second days of the Lunar New Year are all given a seven-day holiday, which is also known as the May Day Golden Week.
For Lin An, this Golden Week holiday is really a long time coming. A few years later, that is, in 2008, the May Day holiday was changed from seven days to three days.
The reality does not allow him to relive this rare long vacation, because the third year of junior high school is the graduating class, and he has to attend classes even if it is a public holiday. In the middle school in the town, if you can be admitted to a few more key high schools every year, the substitute teachers will get more bonuses accordingly, and even the school's students for the next school year will be easier to recruit.
The third year of junior high school students have long been numb to the sudden cancellation of weekends and holidays, and parents have raised their hands in agreement with the school's approach, eager for the teacher to announce that even the morning self-study and evening self-study will continue during the holidays, so that children can have more review time before the high school entrance examination.
Without the noise of the first and second junior high school students, the campus seemed to be much empty, and when Lin An walked through the aisle under the teaching building, he was almost frightened by his footsteps.
Lin An walked to the classroom, the preparatory bell for the morning class just rang, Li Man glanced up, as if to confirm whether the person was in the door or outside the door when the bell rang.
There was buzzing noise everywhere in the classroom, and few students were still reading and reviewing, and they were all whispering to each other. Later, the teacher will announce the results of the preliminary examination, and with this result, you can roughly estimate which high school to apply for at that time, and more accurately narrow down the goal.
Or because of the holiday make-up class, Lin An could feel the cold class leader from afar about this violation of classroom discipline, and he made an exception and did not say anything to stop it.
Before he walked into his place, the classmates sitting behind Li Man consciously moved the desk back, so that he could get into place without touching Li Man's stool, which became an instinct of the students sitting around Li Man.
"Lin An, you went to a relative's house to play on the computer again yesterday? Your mother called my house to look for you, but fortunately I said that you went downstairs to buy something. ”
As soon as Lin An sat down in his seat, Sun Can, who was at the back of the row, poked half of his head to ask for credit, making him want to shoot back the dazzling mushroom head. You don't have to turn your face to look, you can already feel the cold and cold air coming from Li Man's side.
He took the book he wanted to read to the table, leaned on it, and said without looking back, "No! ”
Sun Can gave Lin An a disdainful look, "Hehe, you still want to lie to me, you are so good at sniping, you have practiced it secretly like this!"
Lin An had a bitter face, turned his head on the side of the table, and saw Li Man sitting in his seat "demurely", turning his head to look at the door of the classroom!
"I estimate that I can get into the top 50 of the grade this time, and if I work hard, with my brain, it won't be a problem to get into the first middle school or anything. As soon as he remembered that his family had promised to buy a computer, Sun Can was full of energy and asked Lin An happily, "How did you do in the exam this time, and how many places can you rank?"
Lin An looked at the head with the mushroom head on it, and replied weakly, "Top five!"
"Countdown?!" Sun Can sneered in response to Lin An's cold joke. Lin An's grades are really good, that is relative to him, and his scores in each exam can be ranked about 20 in the whole grade, but this is too far from the top five.
Hearing the word "countdown", Li Man glanced back at Lin An, and seemed to agree with Sun Can's description, and before Lin An could say anything, the head teacher who taught Chinese came in with the test paper.
There was a noise in the classroom, and the head teacher stood in front of the podium and quieted down, looking over expectantly.
The head teacher lifted the heavy glasses on the bridge of his nose, patted the thick stack of test papers on the podium, and said loudly, "The overall score of our class in this exam is better than the other three classes. The first in the grade, still in our class!"
Hearing this, everyone looked at Li Man.
Since the transfer of the second year of junior high school to Lingshui Middle School, she has firmly occupied the throne of the first grade, and every time she has pulled out a gap of twenty or thirty points with the second place, so that the top students who aim for her at the beginning have gone from feeling powerless to accustomed to it, if the head teacher says that the first grade is not in the first class, it is abnormal!
"Needless to say, everyone knows that it's Li Man. She did very well in the test this time, and she got a full score by more than a dozen points, more than 20 points higher than Song Chunfei, who ranked second. ”
Li Man sat quietly in the seat, without a trace of fluctuation in his feelings. It's also something I'm used to.
After speaking, he lowered his head through the top edge of his glasses and looked at Lin An, who was sitting next to Li Man, and said in surprise, "Of course, the most surprising thing for the teacher is that another student in our class has made great progress, which shows that the power of role models is infinite!"
Lin An didn't care about the head teacher's division of credit, he sat up straight, raised his head high, and coughed softly to remind a certain tablemate!
"In this round of review, Lin An, who has made the fastest and biggest progress, has gone from the twenty-third place in the whole grade last time to the top few in the whole grade this time!"
Hearing the teacher say that Lin An's test results this time, Li Man couldn't believe it, and wanted to take the paper over and check it to see if the teacher corrected the wrong test paper or made the wrong mark. In just one month, I still asked for leave every once in a while, how could my grades improve so quickly! I turned my face to look at this tablemate who almost wrote the teacher's praise on my forehead, and I really wanted to kick it out of the window!
The head teacher should want to set up a model of progress, and continued to say, "Among them, English and physics are full marks, these two subjects and Li Man are tied for the first place in the whole grade, and the chemistry score is also better than Song Chunfei in the third class......"
Seeing Li Man frowning and glancing over, Lin An raised his eyebrows proudly.
It was correct as expected, after he finished the exam, he calculated the total score he could get, and felt that this exam was more smooth, and he should be able to enter the top five, and even rank one or two more places. In short, I was saved!
"Lin An, if you get this result, you must not be proud, you must guard against arrogance and rashness and continue to work hard. Also, if you have been asking for leave a little more recently, you should pay attention. Seeing Lin An's eyebrows dancing, the head teacher hurriedly stepped on the brakes, "In the next exam, strive to enter the top three in the grade from the sixth place, then you will have a great confidence in entering the first and second middle schools." In addition, all the students in the class have to learn from Lin An this time, usually run out less after class, and don't be idle when you go home, read more books and review, time waits for no one......"
Sixth place?
Lin An's body froze as he sat upright.
Li Man turned her face and saw Lin An's stunned appearance in her eyes, she opened the large-page information book and put it in front of her, her rosy lips pursed lightly, her thin willow eyebrows stretched, and her lips raised to outline a smile that seemed to be absent.
Lin An turned his head, and put down the information book that blocked his vision, revealing Li Man's cold little face, as well as a pair of colder eyes, with a look of grabbing the handle and waiting to settle the account.
After praising Lin An, the head teacher continued to praise a few students in the class who had also made some progress, and finally called the class representative to come to the stage to help distribute the corrected Chinese papers to everyone for inspection.
At this time, Lin An felt that the clothes behind him were torn off, turned around, and saw Sun Can with a shocked face and asked, "The question I said I wouldn't do last time was felt with my body, is it true?!"
