Chapter 40 The Xu family has a daughter
In the face of Xiao Wenjing's silence, of course Xia Yu didn't ask in detail, but his mind was still stirred up to some extent.
Once he lived again, he thought of a lot of things, and finally couldn't help but say: "People live for a lifetime, plants and trees for a while, the key is to follow your heart and live happily." β
Xiao Wenjing didn't look up, but Meiyu jumped, not expecting Xia Yu to say this. She picked up a wet towel and wiped her hands and said, "That's what you said in your high school essay, little brat!
I really just turned around and left.
Xia Yu smiled helplessly, knowing that she was preoccupied, it seemed that there were many stories hidden behind her optimistic and cheerful personality on weekdays. is also said that according to her education and ability, under normal circumstances, she will never return to such a small company as Polestar Electronics.
In the end, under the watchful eyes of the people on the side of the restaurant, Xia Yu took out a wad of cash to settle the bill, and they were dumbfounded.
The more than 6,000 yuan is not too much, but it is quite thick in your hand, and it is really rare to pay in cash on the Seine.
When he got home that night, Xia Yu took out the letter and prepared to write a letter to his "future girlfriend" Zhang Xiao.
The 10,000-word love letter that has been promised for a long time.
He had already made a decision that even if he would not go to Stanford again this time, he would find a way to get acquainted with her. As for whether we can be together, let's make some more efforts on our own.
Smile, it's me.
Hello, Zhang Xiao, I'm Xia Yu.
Hi, how are you, I'm fine.
β¦β¦
For ten minutes, Xia Yu still hadn't written the beginning, and seven or eight pieces of stationery had been replaced.
After a moment of silence, letting those thoughts emerge from his mind little by little, filtered, precipitated and crystallized, he finally pulled out a new piece of letter again and began to write:
Zhang Xiao, it's me, Xia Yu.
You'll be amazed, but read on.
Let me guess what you're doing, let me think you're in class. Well, it's a good day, good physical education, and a little more English, but it's a pity if you hate physics the most! You're a quiet person most of the time, but I know your little restlessness......
In the middle of the flow of his heart, half an hour passed, Xia Yu moved his shoulders, looking at the full page, there were more than a thousand words. It was difficult to connect it again when his mind was broken, but he didn't force it, and carefully clipped the letter paper into a notebook.
β¦β¦
No matter how much emphasis is placed on education in the first middle school, the baton of the college entrance examination and the score line is still a sharp sword on the head.
As soon as Xia Yu arrived at the school the next day, he saw that the list of the ranking of the preliminary examination in front of the teaching building of the third year of high school had been posted, and seven or eight big lists were densely pasted in the separation of arts and sciences.
In addition, the top 30 in science and the top 10 in liberal arts are listed separately, and the words are very large, and there are photos at the front.
These are the absolute reserves of Huaqing and Yenching Universities, and of course, usually within a hundred people, if they play well, they often appear.
Xia Yu quickly discovered his name, which was among the four hundred and ninety-one, and it was quite easy to find according to the score.
Hu Fei happened to come over at this time, he saw Xia Yu staring at the list, stepped forward and said, "Xia Yu, it's okay, I didn't do well in the exam this time, just work hard next time, you can ask me any questions!"
Xia Yu was stunned and said, "Oh, okay, thank you!"
"You're welcome, are we at the same table! I'm not afraid that you'll overtake me, although it's unlikely. β
Dizzy, this kid is really ...... Well, Xia Yu knew that he was talking like this, and he didn't take it to heart. Looking up, Hu Fei's ranking is twenty-sixth, which is indeed quite strong, and he is also grinning in the photo.
The first class in the morning was Boss Fei's English, and he didn't give a direct lecture at the beginning of the school, so he asked everyone to take out the test paper that had just been examined, and was ready to talk about it from the beginning.
Before the lecture, Fei Jiangsheng first said: "This paper is based on the actual test point of this year's college entrance examination, compiled by several teachers of our first middle school, which is not very difficult, and it is also to test your real level." β
He turned around and drew three lines on the blackboard, then turned around and said, "Let me ask first, how many people have gone back to study it and find their own questions after the answer was sent out yesterday?"
There were not many people raising their hands, probably more than two-thirds.
Of course, Xia Yu was not available, and Hu Fei's hand was raised high. At the second table on the right, Zhang Tianhe also slowly raised his hand.
Fei Jiangsheng nodded, then pointed at Zhang Tianhe and asked, "Zhang Tianhe, you are the only one in our class who failed, but no problem, there is a lot of room for improvement in the future." You said the answer was correct, do you see what's wrong?"
Zhang Tianhe didn't expect to be the first to click on him, stood up and whispered: "This, isn't it more difficult, generally I can go to 80......"
The whole class laughed when they heard it, with a full score of 150, Zhang Tianhe's English score is generally around 90 points, and this time 76 is considered "not playing well".
However, his overall score is still 641, and both mathematics and science are terrifying numbers close to full scores.
Xia Yu saw Hu Fei laughing exaggeratedly.
The first class of the third year of high school is a key class, and there are some partial subjects, but they are really not so strict.
Fei Jiangsheng didn't laugh or criticize him, but said, "You sit down." In fact, this paper is not difficult, so don't be proud if you take the test of 145 or more! Zhang Tianhe thinks it is difficult, because the test points are very complete, and his foundation is average! In fact, the college entrance examination is also like this, there are rarely times when it is difficult, so the foundation is the most important, you know no!"
Xia Yu nodded, it was indeed so.
When the difficulty is relatively high, the test center is more concentrated, and Zhang Tianhe may be able to pass the others by using his luck. However, the lower the difficulty and the wider the scope, the worse the foundation, the more it suffers.
Because it is the first lesson, many people in Fei Jiangsheng can't call their names, and now there is no class committee and class representative in the class, so he basically follows the student number from beginning to end, everyone stands up and talks about a question, of course, listening is not counted.
Xia Yu's student number is No. 18, which is the ranking of the final exam results in the class in the second year of high school.
When it was his turn to speak, it was the third blank in the cloze that happened to be filled-in, in the second half of a long sentence.
ββ¦β¦ The.simple.atmosphere.of.the.officeβ¦β¦γ He read out the whole sentence without hesitation, and his fluent and beautiful voice made many people stunned.
The sound of flipping books, moving stools, and whispering all stopped, and the classroom became extremely quiet for a moment.
Xia Yu, who suddenly understood what was going on, was also a little stunned, but he still stubbornly said: "According to the context, Jim here should be excited, not fear, anxiety and doubt, so choose B, excited." β
Said himself sat down.
Fei Jiangsheng had already known Xia Yu before talking to him, and glanced at him lightly and said: "Xia Yu's speaking is very good, and the listening and composition scores in this exam are also the highest in our class, so you can discuss with him more in the future." This question is really not difficult, choose excited, come to the next one. β
Xia Yu found that Hu Fei's eyes were a little wrong when he looked at him, but he didn't care about him, this person was indeed a little small-minded.
At the end of class, Zhang Tianhe came over and shouted: "Xia Ye, when did you speak English so badly!
Xia Yu punched him and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm going to give you special training, let's pay the tuition first!"
Without waiting for Zhang Tianhe to answer, a very handsome girl also came over and said with a little hesitation: "Hello Xia Yu, my name is Xu Xiao." Now that we're all classmates, can you teach me listening and speaking?"
As soon as these words came out, the two of them were completely stunned, and Zhang Tianhe quietly stretched out his hand and poked Xia Yu behind his back, urging him to agree.
Zhang Tianhe looked envious and sneered: This is a beautiful thing to come to, why didn't anyone ask me about mathematics? No, it seems that there are, but not as good-looking as this girl!
Xu Xiao is not an extremely beautiful girl, but her skin is fair and delicate, her eyes are large, and the lines on her face are soft, and she has a very oriental classical beauty temperament.
Well, the sound is pretty good.
Of course, Xia Yu was also stunned, she didn't remember that this girl was in the class in her previous life, but she was a little familiar, and she was a person who was driven by the butterfly effect?
"Oh, no problem, but I have a relative abroad to guide us to have a conversation, and I haven't summarized the specific learning, but we can communicate more. He replied calmly.
Xu Xiao's voice lowered, a little shy, but a smile bloomed on his face: "Okay, then do you have something urgent after school? Let's take half an hour, oh not fifteen minutes, to do English conversation practice, okay?"
"Uh, no problem!"
After Xu Xiao left, Zhang Tianhe immediately hugged Xia Yu's shoulder from behind, and said exaggeratedly: "Oh my God, Xia Ye, there are beautiful women sent to the door just a few days after school starts, you have opened the protagonist mode!"
"you!" Xia Yu was also a little puzzled.
In his opinion, this girl named Xu Xiao really wants to learn spoken English.
But why did he look at this girl so familiar? He carefully filtered Song Xiao's face in his mind over and over again, but still couldn't recall it.
The atmosphere in No. 1 Middle School is okay, because there are more activities and so much room for communication between boys and girls, and it is much more enlightened than those schools that are strictly forbidden or even militarized.
It was already past eight o'clock after school, Xia Yu was not in a hurry to move, and when the people were almost gone, Xu Xiao quietly walked over: "Xia Yu, thank you!"
Xia Yu smiled and said it was okay, and asked her, "By the way, why do you want to practice speaking?"
Xu Xiaotian smiled: "Go abroad! I want to go to Columbia University for movies!"
Xia Yu was stunned when he heard this, and asked: "Do you want to go to the Yenching Film Academy in China, which is also good, and the most famous thing about Columbia University is business and journalism ......."
Columbia University is Columbia University, located in Manhattan, New York, which has been established for more than 300 years and is also an Ivy League school. A total of 87 alumni and professors have won the Nobel Prize in its history, and the emphasis is placed on graduate teaching, and the difficulty of applying for undergraduate studies is not ordinary.
There have been two presidents in this school, and Xia Yu knows that there will be a third in a few years - Obama, the first black president in American history.
"No, I just want to go to Columbia University!" Xu Xiao's tone was very firm, and there was a lot of determination hidden under his quiet temperament.
Xia Yu didn't ask the reason, and began to talk about some basic practice methods for speaking English. It's nothing more than following the dialogue of the movie, listening to the news, retelling classic sentences, etc., and then communicating with her simply.
About ten minutes later, suddenly there was a vibration sound in Xu Xiao's schoolbag. This girl also secretly brought her mobile phone, but it should be turned on after school.
She smiled embarrassedly and took out her mobile phone to connect: "...... Yes, Dad, I know...... Okay, don't be busy in the factory, let my brother share some ......"
Xia Yu began to pack up his things, and he didn't intend to listen to her words, and suddenly someone appeared in his heart!
When she hung up the phone, Xia Yu asked, "Xu Xiao, is your father's name Xu Jiahui?"
"Ah, how do you know?" Xu Xiao asked suspiciously, he didn't seem to say anything on the phone just now.
No wonder he felt that Xu Xiao's face was a little familiar, that day in the Linghai Electronics Market, Xu Jiahui made a deep impression on him, especially his fiery temper. However, listening to Li De's introduction at the time, he was also a technical master, and I didn't know what happened to his company.
"Oh, my uncle also makes MP3, I followed him to meet your dad, you look a little like him!"
"Hehe, yes, everyone has said that since childhood!"
The two talked casually, thinking that today's communication was okay, Xia Yu asked for her QQ number, promised to go back in the evening and send some information to her, and then prepared to pack up and go home
Suddenly, the front door of the classroom was opened, and a girl walked in, and was stunned when she saw that there were only two people in the teacher, and subconsciously shouted: "Xia Yu, what are you doing!"
