Zhou Xiaoyun’s Happy Life

Chapter 212 Zhou Xiaoyun’s Ideal

Zhou Xiaoyun thought for a while and decided to speak out what was in his heart. There was no need to hide and say polite words to his close relatives: "Mom and Dad, I want to apply for Yingming High School as my first choice. I am not going to fill in other high schools. Anyway, my grades are tested." Yingming High School is a sure thing. I just want to get into the top 100. I heard that the tuition fee is different depending on the ranking. The top 10 students are free of charge, and the 11th to 20th students are free of charge. I want to give it a try. "

Dabao immediately gave a flattering thumbs up: "You are ambitious! Da Ya, I believe you have the strength."

Xiaobao also said: "Yes, sister, I think so too. You will definitely get what you want."

Erya was not the first to speak, but what she said was the sweetest: "My sister must be the best!"

Zhou Xiaoyun looked around with emotion, and felt that he felt more confident with the encouragement from his brother and sister.

 Zhou Guoqiang nodded in agreement.

Zhao Yuzhen had other ideas. She originally thought that girls should be admitted to a technical technical secondary school or something like that as early as possible, so as not to have high school grades slipping. Besides, can she and Zhou Guoqiang really be able to support several children in this family studying together? The tuition and living expenses are not a small amount.

But seeing Zhou Xiaoyun's determined look, Zhao Yuzhen swallowed back the words that came to her lips.

As long as the child wants to, let her go!

Since then, the Zhou family has also formed a habit of fully respecting their children's ideals and wishes and not interfering with their own choices.

Xiaobao and Erya followed this regulation when they grew up. Zhou Xiaoyun often laughed that his family was a real Mingzhu's home.

 These are all things that I won’t discuss at this moment.

Let’s talk about Zhou Xiaoyun’s life before the high school entrance examination!

 After deciding on his choice, Zhou Xiaoyun was focused on studying and took all the time to review. For students, scores are the first weapon, and other things are not discussed at this time. Being able to memorize one more word, being able to memorize one formula, being able to do one more math problem, and being able to recite a text are all important to you.

Perhaps this final sprint can get the crucial one or two points?

There are really more than one or two people who have this idea, and it can be seen from the learning atmosphere in the class.

 The new class was finished in the morning, and the whole day was spent reviewing, reviewing, reviewing, practicing, practicing, practicing again. Ni Liang jokingly called this "suffering" to see who could survive this hurdle.

The teachers are also very busy. The students’ exercises are printed, corrected and summarized. These three years of hard work are just about the last graduation exam. If you do well in the exam, the bonus is not a big deal, but the sense of accomplishment is also different!

 Zhou Xiaoyun met Zheng Haoran when he was moving his math notebooks. Zheng Haoran was also one of the top students in Class 8. The two naturally chatted for a while when they met.

Zheng Haoran had roughly the same idea as Zhou Xiaoyun. The two encouraged each other for a few words and then went back to class.

 One week before the high school entrance examination, students lined up to take their graduation photos.

　　After lining up so hard, it clicked twice and it was done. When they got the seven-inch photo, everyone was looking for where they were standing.

Zhou Xiaoyun looked at the photos for a long time and finally found himself in the second row.

 The first row of benches are filled with teachers, principals and directors. From the second row to the back, the upper half of the body is exposed, and only heads can be seen in the dense crowd.

 Forget it, put the photos away and enjoy them later when you have time!

Haven’t you seen that Yang Fan and Li Tianyu don’t even play basketball now? They are all studying hard! It’s really hard to say for this last high school entrance examination. It doesn’t necessarily mean that people who study well will do well in the exam, and it doesn’t necessarily mean that ordinary people will not do well in the exam.

 The exam also tests people’s psychological qualities and their on-the-spot reactions. Calmness and carefulness are also very important.

Nowadays, it is no longer popular to give each other photos. The two-inch headshot taken when you graduated from elementary school is of course only a seven-inch full-body color photo.

Zhou Xiaoyun took a break from his busy schedule and went to the photo studio on the street to take a picture after lunch.

Xiaobao followed and insisted on taking a photo with Zhou Xiaoyun. Zhou Xiaoyun giggled and put his arms around Xiaobao's neck and took a photo.

 The photos were given away as a big gift to the class. Everyone was given one, and even Zhou Xiaoyun was given one. In the end, I calculated that I had received more than thirty photos.

 A photo album is full, haha!

 Then, a day off was given for students to rest at home before the exam. Zhou Xiaoyun simply stopped reading and let his brain relax. It was not a good thing if the string in his mind was too tight!

 What are you going to do on this day? I slept late in the morning and stayed at home in the afternoon without going anywhere. I was so lazy that I didn’t think about anything.

When he woke up the next day, Zhou Xiaoyun felt energetic and clear-headed. He took a pencil case and admission ticket and set off.

 The high school entrance examination lasted three days. Except for Chinese and Mathematics, the score was 120, and English, Politics, Physics and Chemistry were all 100, which means the total score was 640.

Zhou Xiaoyun’s examination room was in the first grade class of Yingming Middle School. He basically didn’t recognize the candidates around him, and many of them were from other schools. The only classmates in the same class were Chen Xinran and herself.

Chen Xinran was still reading nervously a few minutes before the exam. Seeing Zhou Xiaoyun's leisurely sitting position, she felt envious.

 Look how confident they are! It's all my fault that I don't study hard at all. Now my eyes are full of things I haven't mastered, and my heart is panicking. Isn’t it okay if you don’t look at it?

Zhou Xiaoyun didn’t ask Zhou Guoqiang to accompany him in the exam, but Xiaobao insisted on following him, saying he wanted to cheer him up.

Zhou Xiaoyun suddenly remembered that he accompanied Dabao during the high school entrance examination last year.

Everyone had adults take the exam with her, but when she got to her house, it was her younger siblings who came to take the exam with her. ha!

However, it’s good to have Xiaobao by his side. After the exam, he and Xiaobao will go out to a restaurant and have a good meal. Zhao Yuzhen’s food expenses have quadrupled in the past few days, saying that he must eat well.

Zhou Xiaoyun thought to herself that I wouldn’t bother cooking. I would go to the restaurant and order two delicious dishes to eat.

 The first test was Chinese, which has always been Zhou Xiaoyun's best course. First, I quickly browse the test paper, then write down my school class name, student number and admission ticket number, and then write the answers on the answer sheet.

This answer sheet is a little troublesome to paint. You have to be careful with the 2B pencil to cover all the letters.

Zhou Xiaoyun was delighted when he saw the title of the essay, "My Ideal"!

This composition topic has been practiced at least twice in junior high school, and three times in total including the time I wrote it in elementary school.

Zhou Xiaoyun thought to himself, I don’t want to be too outstanding. It’s better to be honest and settle down and write a realistic ideal that can get you points! Just write that when I grow up, I want to be a writer, write prose, poetry, and novels, and not follow the crowd and stick to my own thoughts.

This theme is good, and it is indeed what Zhou Xiaoyun longs for most. Therefore, the articles I wrote flowed out very smoothly and naturally, and an 800-word composition came out without even typing.

 After checking the paper twice, it was time to hand in the paper. Zhou Xiaoyun felt quite good about himself and handed in the paper and left the examination room.
