Chapter 39 – Blackboard

“It’s so hot this summer!”

“Isn’t it boiling every summer? Nanlin’s bad weather is amazing! “

Since school started, there have been no complaints about the temperature. Nanlin’s hot weather was impetuous. As soon as the teacher left the classroom, the students couldn’t stop chatting.

In the first class in the afternoon, during the hottest part of the day, the electric fans in the classroom turned extremely slowly, and the accompanying wind was hot. The entire classroom was like a pressure cooker with a fire underneath, and a pile of dumplings in the pot was almost cooked.

Someone in the classroom slammed the fan with a cheap plastic fan that cost one dollar, but it didn’t bring coolness, and the sound of the puff was noisy.

“You Yu, how do you maintain this kind of motionless posture?” Xia Yuanyuan asked quietly.

You Yu said, “The heart is calm and naturally cool.”

Wei Xingxing couldn’t help but comment, “This joke is old-fashioned.”

They still had the heart to talk. Chi Tang didn’t want to say a word, and she felt like she was too hot to even talk. She spent the entire summer vacation at home, with air-conditioning. She now had no air-conditioning at school, and her life was difficult.

Sweaty hands held the pen, and in a short while, even the homework paper could stick to her hand. Chi Tang did her homework for a while. Because of the hot weather and heavy movements, the hand moved aside and the homework paper was not careful. Torn. She just did half of the questions and tore them in half.

Chi Tang simply lost her pen. She didn’t do it!

Although she didn’t say a word, a few people around her could notice the movement. After getting along for a while, Wei Xingxing and the others found that Chi Tang’s temper was not very good. However, she didn’t like to get angry with others, so it was fun to be sulky in her own life.

However, it was not Chi Tang that Wei Xingxing found the most fun, but You Yu.

Seeing Chi Tang lose her pen and leaning on the table in a daze, Wei Xingxing stabbed the same table with her elbow and motioned her to look. “Look, look, they’re about to start again!”

You Yu finished her homework early, and now she took the workbook from Chi Tang’s desk and looked at it, then tore off a torn page, copied the part that Chi Tang had written again, and gave her the homework. Going back, it was very smooth.

It could be seen that Chi Tang did not want to do her homework very much, and half of her homework was damaged in the middle. It was like the game was not saved and needed to be played again. She didn’t want to continue playing. But the same table sent her the game progress back as if she could only continue playing.

Chi Tang silently picked up the pen and restarted her homework, remembering that she hadn’t transferred to Nanlin before. She listened to rebelliousness. She was not a student who made the teacher worry at all. Suddenly, she was annoyed by a small matter like this and stopped doing homework. It was normal for her to study late and leave early. It didn’t matter.

What made her become a talented student who was studying hard every day, doing her homework seriously, and attending classes well? Her desk mate

Seeing that the two roommates in front were doing their homework on the table as if they had nothing, Wei Xingxing in the back row and her deskmate looked at each other, and they saw envy in each other’s eyes.

“Hey, I am envious of having my desk mates help with homework.”

“I’m so envious of my desk mates doing homework.”

OK, everyone had a friend who didn’t want to do their homework, so she couldn’t count on it anymore. Wei Xingxing also dropped the pen, ready to find a kind foreign aid friend.

“Hey! You Yu! ” Wei Xingxing poked You Yu, folded her hands, and said to her: “Everyone was a sister in the same dormitory. Since you helped Chi Tang with homework, please help me write one! “

You Yu: “I didn’t help Chi Tang with homework; I just copied the part she wrote for her. It’s better to do the homework by yourself.”

Thinking of how she did her summer homework, Chi Tang glanced at the same table with complicated eyes and said nothing.

Wei Xingxing looked bitterly resentful: “Oh, I should have known that you are better to Chi Tang than to us.”

Xia Yuanyuan also sighed softly. “After all, we made the wrong payment.”

Zhang Meng also joined the conversation unwillingly and said: “What do you think? Since Chi Tang entered the palace, she has been favored by the sage. She will not die, and you will become a concubine after all.”

You Yu: “?”

Chi Tang turned her head and stared at them silently. “You can’t understand what you are talking about.”

You Yu only reacted, “Oh, were you kidding me just now?”

She smiled, “I can’t help you with your homework, but I can help you check what’s right and wrong after finishing writing.”

Laugh and laugh; you still have to do your homework after you finish talking.

Teacher Ke didn’t let them be free for long, and soon came over to talk about the topic, and then came the most feared part of the students: “Now I want to catch a kid to do the problem on the blackboard. Who is so lucky?”

The quietest moment in the classroom was when the math teacher asked someone to do a problem on the blackboard. No one made a sound, and there was a suffocating silence in the classroom.

Seeing Teacher Ke’s gaze swept over and fixed on her, Chi Tang, who felt the danger, looked at the textbook calmly and expressionlessly, determined not to look at each other with Teacher Ke, and swam the pen in her hand without a trace. She urged her deskmate. Help me! Teacher Ke wants me!

Before Teacher Ke could speak, You Yu raised her hand.

Teacher Ke had always liked You Yu, the academic committee member. As long as she actively raised her hand, she would be ordered, but You Yu always stepped forward to block the gun. Teacher Ke also wanted to see some fresh faces, so this time she ordered two people. “Then you, and Chi Tang, come together.”

Chi Tang: I still haven’t escaped!

She wouldn’t know the question assigned to Chi Tang. Going to the show board was a public sentence, especially when compared with You Yu next to him. You Yu must have finished writing three times, leaving her to die on the podium.

Under all eyes, Teacher Ke was still watching. Even if You Yu discovered that Chi Tang couldn’t do it, she couldn’t do it for her. She could only slow down the speed of doing the questions and was eager for her.

Chi Tang finished copying the title, wrote a solution, and then stared at the title without moving.

You Yu slowed down, and half of the question was written.

Teacher Ke turned her head, picked up the cup, and drank from the podium. You Yu jotted a formula on Chi Tang’s hand with chalk, and the writing was fast. When Teacher Ke took a sip of water, she began to write the beginning of a problem-solving plan. 

It’s nervous to do this kind of insignificant gesture openly under the eyes of your classmates. Although everyone saw it, no one said anything. Chi Tang didn’t have time to think about it, so she quickly copied the two problem-solving steps. Before Teacher Ke turned her head, You Yu erased the two rows of small print again.

The two rows of formulas were like a thread. Chi Tang looked at it and suddenly had some thoughts. She could stumble and continue to solve the problem. Teacher Ke turned to stare after drinking the water. She did not urge her to speed up, although Chi Tang was speeding. It was slow, but she finished this question in the end.

You Yu could finish it early, but she deliberately wrote slowly. Teacher Ke also didn’t urge her, letting her dawdle in front of the blackboard. After Chi Tang was about to write the answer, You Yu wrote her answer at the same time and walked off the stage with Chi Tang.

Chi Tang touched the chalk dust on her hand and looked back at her. You Yu smiled comfortingly at her, and the two returned to their seats and sat down.

Teacher Ke seemed to be ignorant of the slight movements between the two and talked about two questions on the blackboard.

Wei Xingxing quietly raised her thumb to the two little sisters, wondering whether she praised them for making the two hard problems, or praised them for their courage to cheat in class.

Teacher Ke finished class and returned to the office. The teacher sitting opposite her asked her curiously: “Why is Teacher Ke laughing like this? What good things have happened?”

Teacher Ke put a smile away and said, “No, just thinking of two children is kind of fun.”

The teacher shook her head. “Children these days are fun. They are difficult to manage.”

The uncontrollable students went crazy after class, and screams were heard in the office. The teachers were accustomed to doing their own thing.

Chi Tang went to the toilet, and when she was washing her hands, she saw the white chalk dust on her hands. The lines on the fingertips were conspicuous under the white chalk gray.

You Yu, back in the classroom, was still the same as she was before she left. In the boiling class, she was sitting there and writing unusually quietly, incompatible with everything around her, and she was serious enough to not disturb her easily.

Wei Xingxing and the others gathered around to talk and didn’t always talk to You Yu, so You Yu was always quiet.

Chi Tang stood at the door for a moment and walked back to her seat before attracting attention. She knocked on You Yu’s desk with a chill on the hands she had just washed.

You Yu regarded her with suspicion.

Chi Tang: “In between classes, take a break, too.”

You Yu was taken aback for a moment, put down the pen, and rubbed her eyes.

Chi Tang looked at her with her chin and said, “Can you see now?” During the summer vacation, she was a little short-sighted. According to her study method, Chi Tang felt she should go with glasses soon.

You Yu put down her hand and smiled bitterly: “When I have time, it is time to go with glasses.” She whispered: “When the Chinese teacher writes on the blackboard, sometimes the writing is too small and it is a little unclear.”

Chi Tang was surprised: “You can’t see clearly?” But the notes she took every day were very clear, and she would go to You Yu’s notes if she missed them.

You Yu answered according to the truth: “Some are not clear, I guessed based on the context.”

Chi Tang: “…” She was convinced that this kind of note could be guessed and memorized according to the context.

She had to tell her: “So I can’t see clearly, I still have to wear glasses.”

You Yu agreed: “Well, I see.”

Soon it would be the long holiday of November. It was one of the two long holidays, and it was also the most anticipated day for the students. Even if the holidays had shrunk in recent years, the school would still find a variety of titles to make up classes before the holiday and make up the days of the holiday. The enthusiasm of the students for the minor holiday could not be destroyed.

We started discussing it before the holiday in the morning.

During the long holiday of November last year, Chi Tang and You Yu were not very familiar with each other, and they were embarrassed to get along with each other. However, unlike last year, this year they were comfortable asking each other how to spend the long holiday.

You Yu said, “I promised Teacher Ke to make up lessons for the children in her community.”

Teacher Ke and Teacher Fang both live in the community near the school and would stay in the dormitory during the long vacation. Chi Tang didn’t matter; she was free, and she could go back or not.

Both Wei Xingxing and Xia Yuanyuan were traveling with their parents during the 11th long holiday. The family harmony was enviable.
