Chapter 515: Competition

Gu Xi hurriedly shook his head, and then said:

"Not now, it's around the end of November and the beginning of December. ”

"Shhh Xu Maidong gasped when he heard this, "I haven't heard much about taking such a long leave now, isn't it time to start the final review in December?"

Gu Xi then shut up, not daring to say that it might take longer.

Fortunately, Xu Maidong was a very responsible squad leader, and after confirming that Gu Xi was not talking casually, he hesitated: "Then I'll help you ask." ”

"Okay, thank you very much. Gu Xi hurriedly said with a smile.

Compared with Gu Xi, Xu Maidong, who is usually more enthusiastic about student work, of course, sounds more convenient.

"You're welcome, you're welcome. ”

Xu Maidong said casually, but because Gu Xi didn't say anything specific, she still had doubts in her heart.

If a student doesn't want to go home, what does it take for a week to take a vacation?

Of course, it's a big deal to make money.

As a student, Gu Xi must study hard, failing to study in college in the past was a lifelong obsession for her, and for Gu Xi, she must cherish her dream now.

Including Gu Xiaodi, before he had anything more to like, Gu Xi really attached importance to his younger brother's studies, and wanted to buy him all the good things related to his studies.

Gu Xi also used foreign exchange coupons to buy a few of the latest Walkmans at the Friendship Store and sent them back, Gu Xiaodi used them to practice his listening, and Wen Wan usually went home from work to pass the time by herself.

The other one was sent to Tang Tong, she studied very hard at night, and the Tang family is living a lot better now, not like before, but Tang Tong still can't buy a good thing like this.

Tang Tong was going crazy with joy when he received the Walkman, Gu Xi sent the tape together, Tang Tong called Gu Xi while putting his hearing, and he couldn't wait to swear to Gu Xi on the phone:

"Gu Xi, don't worry, I will definitely study hard, otherwise I will be sorry for you to be such a good Walkman. ”

I vaguely heard the wife next to me talking, "You give me the phone, I told Gu Xi, this kid can't spend money like this anymore, how much does this thing cost?"

Gu Xi laughed when she heard this, and she could feel the joy of the few people who received the Walkman, and that was enough for her.

So in the case of not falling behind in learning, making money is also very important to Gu Xi, if she doesn't have money, what will she use to buy what she wants to buy for her relatives and friends?

Of course, after Xu Maidong brought back the news, Gu Xi immediately honestly gathered his heart and prepared to enter the study state.

Xu Maidong also agreed with this, and said casually:

"I think you're right, although I listen to the teacher, it's easy not to give approval for more than a week of vacation, but if you have good grades, then the reason may be enough, of course, it's best to get some results, you are like a junior who has a senior brother, who won the first prize in the competition last year, is the one we want to compete this weekend, and if there is something at home, go back in advance, let alone ask for leave, I heard that the tickets were bought with the help of their counselors. ”

Xu Maidong's tone was very envious when he said it.

College students in this era, although they have a heavier literary and youthful atmosphere, and they look like the eldest and my second child all day long, but they will still admit their real achievements.

So in the eyes of Xu Maidong and others, although the senior brother was treated preferentially, it must be because the teacher cherishes talents that he will do that.

Gu Xi didn't follow the compliment, he was working hard to write, and when he heard the news, he hurriedly asked:

"What game?"

"Huh?"

Xu Maidong was stunned, she actually said it in passing, but since Gu Xi asked her, she had to explain again,

"You just didn't know that it was an English competition jointly organized by our universities in the imperial capital, don't look at it as not national, but in fact, this kind of competition is very recognized in the colleges and universities in the imperial capital, and the importance of winning the first prize is no less than that of the national competition, so the senior brother in the junior year will make the teacher value it. ”

When Xu Maidong spoke, there was inevitably some superiority in his tone that was difficult to hide.

As a student of Imperial Capital University, she is indeed a little proud from the bottom of her bones, after all, not everyone can be admitted.

Gu Xi did not comment on this.

For a school like Imperial Capital University, which has a lot of geographical advantages, it is true that various resources will be tilted here, and it is normal to be confident.

Fortunately, it has been more than ten years since the college entrance examination was resumed, and now the key universities in various provinces are getting better and better, at least Gu Xi feels that the level of students in University A is not bad.

Xu Maidong also remembered that Gu Xi came from other places to exchange, and hurriedly stopped showing off a little in a slightly show-off tone, and said sincerely:

"Do you want to participate in this competition, but I don't think it's the right year for you. ”

"Why?"

"In fact, there are no strict requirements for registration for this competition, anyone who wants to sign up can do it, so the teacher didn't specifically announce it, everyone knew that they had signed up intermittently, but the key is that it didn't last as long as the national English competition, and it basically ended in more than a week from the preliminary round to the finals. Xu Maidong knew that Gu Xi had won the grand prize of the competition, and he made a special mention before further explaining, "And it's okay if you want to sign up now, I know that the registration form will be handed in today, but the problem is that you don't have time to prepare." ”

Xu Maidong carefully said everything he knew, thinking that Gu Xi would retreat after hearing it.

Unexpectedly, Gu Xi didn't think much about it at all, and as soon as he heard that he could still sign up now, he immediately said:

"Then I'll sign up. ”

Xu Maidong: "......"

So she just said it all in vain, didn't she?

But where is Gu Xi willing to let go of such a good opportunity, winning a first prize can give preferential treatment to the teachers in the department, plus she is a student who is an exchange will not be so strict, and the time off will not be easy to catch.

Thinking about it like this, Gu Xi couldn't sit still at all, so he pulled Xu Maidong and rushed to register.

As Xu Maidong said, the competition was coming up on the weekend, but Gu Xi didn't come over until this time, so when he handed in the registration form, the teacher looked at Gu Xi with some surprise.

Fortunately, I accepted it in the end, and just said:

"When you get the question, go back and prepare carefully. ”

Gu Xi smiled and said, "I know, thank you, teacher, I will prepare well." ”

Of course she will, and she's going to win an award.

Of course, Gu Xi also signed up, and on the way back, he knew why he could still register for the weekend competition on Wednesday.

You must know that when she participated in the national English competition before, she couldn't wait to prepare for a semester in advance, and even the school specially assigned professors to open small stoves for them, which is so casual like this.

And this competition is actually led by Imperial Capital University and several other famous universities, and the reason why it is not national and recognized by teachers and students is especially because of its surprise nature.

This is fixed once a year, but in this contest with a speech situation, the topic is announced two days before the competition.
