In the days when the principal was away, Xia Xue went to work early and returned late every day. It seems to be a small school, but in fact, there are a lot of trivial things.

The children in this elementary school, in addition to the adopted orphans, are also children from poor families in the town.

Children from good families will be sent to schools in the city, but it is very hard for parents to pick up and drop them off every day.

At noon that day, as soon as Xia Xue walked into the teacher's office, she heard a male classmate confronting the teacher.

If I can't study well, I won't go to school at all! What's the big deal? The male classmate was old-fashioned, but his face was clear-eyed.

Brown, take a good look at your report card! I feel the need to meet your parents. The teacher who had been knocked out of the confrontation stared into Brown's eyes with a sullen face, clearly disappointed by his grades.

But Brown stiffened his neck and refused to humbly admit his mistake. He held his head high in disdain and stared at the roof. But Xia Xue found a trace of cowardice in his seemingly strong eyes.

Xia Xue walked up to the teacher's side, reached out and took the child's report card, and looked at it.

Brown's results are indeed terrible. English C, U.S. History C, Earth Science D、、、、、、 Xia Xue didn't continue to look down.

At the bottom of the transcript, there are also a few cards sandwiched. Xia Xue stretched out her finger and looked at it. God, Brown received 4 "progress analysis cards", which are "fail cards".

As long as the test subject has a D or F, you will receive this bad grade card. What's worse is that there is also a letter from the teacher to the parents attached to the report card.

In this parent notice, the teacher clearly told the parents that Brown's academic performance in the first quarter was disappointing, and if he did not improve in the next grades, then his overall grade in the semester would be terrible.

Teachers suggested that parents should be able to enroll Brown in this year's summer tutoring class to try to catch up on missed homework.

In this letter, the teacher also coldly informed the parents that Brown's class is getting closer and closer to the date of promotion. But Brown's current grades simply can't meet the standards of the academic test, and only God knows whether he will be able to go on to higher education.

Xia Xue whispered softly to the teacher. Go to lunch, I'll leave this kid to me.

The teacher smiled gratefully and said thank you. After getting up immediately, she looked at Xia Xue's pregnant belly worriedly and asked. Xia Xue, are you sure you can?

Xia Xue nodded with a smile and said, no problem, I'll give it a try.

The teacher opened the drawer, took out the lunch, opened the door and walked out.

Brown, can you sit down and let's have a good talk? This transcript will be kept by me for the time being, and will not be handed over to your father. Xia Xue said softly.

Brown's eyes lit up and he looked at Xia Xue. Teacher, is what you just said true? You're really not going to give this report card to my father?

Xia Xue nodded solemnly and said. Don't you believe me? When have I ever lied to you?

Brown thought for a moment, lowered his head in shame, and stared in pain at the report card that had just been sent.

Xia Xue sat down at the desk, patted the chair next to her, and motioned for Brown to sit down as well.

Brown hesitated for a moment, and sat down beside Xia Xue with some embarrassment.

Xia Xue took out the lunch box she brought in the morning from the drawer of her desk, opened it gently, and put it in front of Brown.

Brown looked at Xia Xue in surprise and said. Teacher, you 、、、、、、

Xia Xue took out the tableware for eating, handed it to Brown, and said with loving eyes. Kid, you eat quickly, let's talk while we eat. Don't worry, I've got something to eat!

Brown realized that he was hungry and said, thank you, teacher! He devoured it.

Xia Xue picked up the cup, got up and poured a cup of hot water, and put it in front of Brown. Brown, eat slowly, don't be in a hurry.

Not long after Xia Xue first came to the school, she heard the principal specifically mention Brown's child.

Brown was actually a very smart and motivated child, but his poor family had to make him take on the burden of supporting the family too early.

His mother was seriously ill and lost her ability to work. The hardships of life made his father always frowning, and he also developed a bad habit of alcoholism.

In order to share his father's burden, Brown took a part-time job as a grocery delivery boy at a young age.

On every holiday and weekend, from sunrise to sunset, he rode his bicycle through the streets and alleys of the town, delivering countless goods regardless of the cold or heat.

There are many customers who will look at him with strange eyes, thinking that this young and handsome child has dropped out of school prematurely. All he can answer the customer is an awkward smile, otherwise what else can he say? No one knows all this.

Now, it would be worse for him to hand over that terrible report card to his father.

Xia Xue looked at the child quietly and let out a soft sigh! Such a sensible child must not be allowed to leave school and give up studying prematurely.

After a while, Brown quickly finished his bento and looked at Xia Xue embarrassedly.

Xia Xue smiled, picked up the cup of hot water just now, and handed it to Brown.

Tears of emotion flashed in Brown's eyes. He choked for a moment, didn't say anything, and took a glass of water.

Brown, I'm going to open a dumpling restaurant in town in a few days, would you like to come over and help the teacher? Of course, you can only come on holidays or weekends, and the teacher will pay you the same salary as an adult as any other employee.

Brown exclaimed excitedly, really, teacher?

Xia Xue nodded seriously and looked at Brown with a smile.

Brown smiled happily. Teacher, I'm willing to help you! This way, I can earn money at my doorstep and I don't have to run around to make deliveries!

Xia Xue was amused by Brown's expression. Well, we've settled this matter. In the future, if you are willing to clean, you can choose to clean in the store. If you're willing to help make dumplings, then you need to learn how to make dumplings first, OK?

Well, OK, Mr. Xia! Brown's two flexible and translucent eyes shone with happiness.

Brown, you're being honest with your teachers, are you really going to give up school? You are a good boy who is smart and sensible, and if you are so easily intimidated by the difficulties in front of you, you may regret it when you grow up!

Brown looked down sadly and muttered. Teacher, my grades are always so bad that I think I may not be good material for reading. I didn't tell my father about that report card, for fear that he would beat me up when he was drunk! I came to school today to say goodbye to everyone and don't want to go to school anymore、、、、、、

Why don't you want to go to school anymore? Just because of the poor grades in front of you, do you want to be a deserter?

Teacher, my grades were the worst in my class! Every time the teacher mentions my grades in the class, I feel embarrassed and have no face to stay in school! Brown said bitterly, tears welling up in his eyes.

Xia Xue patted Brown's weak shoulder affectionately and said earnestly. Child, maybe you are underestimating yourself, or maybe you are exaggerating the seriousness of the situation. Actually, it's not as bad as you think.

Brown looked at Xia Xue in disbelief. There was no longer pain and despair in his eyes, but he was instantly filled with confidence.

Xia Xue smiled slightly, looked into Brown's eyes, and said. An unhappy childhood is not necessarily a disaster, but it can also be a great asset in life, depending on how you think of it?

Brown's bright eyes widened and he looked at Xia Xue without blinking.

Xia Xue continued. Brown, I've read all your papers. You have a good foundation in your studies, and as long as you put in a little more time, you will be able to improve your grades in no time. For example, most of the mistakes in your math paper this time are careless calculation errors, but the idea of solving the problem is very clear. This shows that you can listen carefully every time you go to class. It's just that you are busy delivering goods in your spare time, so you don't have time to practice.

Brown nodded movingly, tears streaming down his sleeve no longer.

Xia Xue took out a few tissues, handed them to Brown, and said. Brown, don't you go to deliver goods in the future, and when you have free time, you can come to the teacher's dumpling restaurant to help, how about it?

Brown wiped away a handful of tears and nodded obediently.

When you come to the store, you can come with your homework. After finishing your homework, you can help the store, this is the only requirement that the teacher asks you, can you do it?

Mr. Xia, I promise to do it! At this time, Brown had already turned into a little man, stood up solemnly, half-clenched his fist, and beat his chest on the left side to show his determination!

Xia Xue was amused by the child again. Not only is he smart and smart, but he's also so cute. At such a young age, I knew to share the burden for my parents and try my best to help the family make money. When Xia Xue thought of this, the corners of her eyes were not only overflowing with tears.

What's wrong, Mr. Xia? Brown asked nervously.

Xia Xue hurriedly said. Nothing, the teacher thinks you, you are so sensible, it makes adults feel distressed to look at it! Actually, I didn't have a happy childhood, but I did come through it eventually. Look at the teacher now, isn't it good?

Brown smiled and nodded. Teacher, I must study hard in the future! Anyway, I don't have to make deliveries, so I can spend a lot of time studying.

Xia Xue nodded with satisfaction and said. Brown, there's something for you to trouble right now, can you help?

Absolutely. Brown said briskly.

All right. Starting today, every day after school, you will have to help the teacher bring a note to your parents. It's just that the note written by the teacher to your parents is a secret between us adults, so don't read it on the road!

Brown frowned, thought for a long time, and then said, Okay, teacher, you can rest assured!

In the days that followed, Brown continued to pass notes to Xia Xue.

He didn't know what was written on that mysterious note. It's just strange to find that my father, who had forgotten to smile, showed a long-lost smile on his face from time to time.

It's so weird! Even Browndo's sick mother no longer sighed.

Brown's father would occasionally write a simple reply to Xia Xue.

The content of the letter was public, and Brown saw his father say to Xia Xue in the letter: Thank you, teacher, Brown is the pride of our family! Thank you, teacher, Brown is a good boy and he will change the fate of our family! Thank you, Brown, a genius at learning!

Brown looked at his father's letter to Xia Xue, his heart was deeply shaken, and his confidence in himself became more and more firm.

More than a month later, Brown's studies improved by leaps and bounds, and he never failed his exams again.

At this time, Brown's father had tears in his eyes and unfolded the notes written by Xia Xue to him one by one in front of Brown's eyes.

Brown saw that the note read: Brown has been studying very hard lately; Brown's math scores improved rapidly; Brown was proud of his father, and for the whole class, he gave a speech about his father's unflinching behavior in the face of hardship; Brown said he wanted to use his efforts to change the fate of his family、、、、、、

It turned out to be this note full of encouragement and affirmation, which strengthened the child's positive confidence!

When Jacques heard about this, he said to Xia Xue with emotion. Xia Xue, you may have changed the fate of Brown's life! Otherwise, if he insists on dropping out of school, he is destined to do nothing in this life.

Xia Xue smiled indifferently. Where am I so good? I finally know how hard the principal is doing! How many of these problems does she have to deal with?
