Chapter 17 The Second Unified Examination
During dinner, Ling's mother asked her aunt to go to the store to help. She agreed without saying a word. She didn't even ask how much money she gave a month, but only said she would go to help Ling's mother, which made Ling's mother a little embarrassed. Ling Xiaoxiao knew that her aunt was generous and the one she was most reluctant to take advantage of relatives. She must have thought so, not being a little petty. The clothing store has been open for a week and the business has been pretty good, especially since Ling Xiaoxiao strongly asked to buy a lot of cotton and down jackets, and the profits were quite impressive, so she didn't feel sorry for her salary when she asked Ling's mother to hire someone to visit the store.
"Dad, mom, aunt, please listen to my advice. My mother has to go out to purchase goods at least twice a month, and every time she has to walk for four or five days. In the past few days, it's very hard to watch the store by my aunt alone. In addition, we are all relatives, so we all make money together, right? So I thought, let my aunt use manpower to occupy 20% of the shares, and give her an aunt a salary of 80 yuan each month, and then deduct it from the dividend at the end of the year. What do you think?" Ling Xiaoxiao's idea came from the first time she asked her to ask her to help her see the store.
Ling Dad, Ling Mom lowered her eyes after hearing Ling Xiaoxiao's words and began to think carefully about whether this was possible. However, my aunt was quick to think about it and said quickly: "How can this be done? It's okay for me to come here to help me when I stay at home. Everyone is a relative. If Dashan knows that I still take your money, he will not come back and scold me."
"Dabaoer's idea is good," Ling Dad looked at Ling Xiaoxiao and nodded with satisfaction: "Shuying, you said it well. We are all a family. It is appropriate to help each other. Look, you come and help me with the store, and we are more at ease than asking others. Besides, you have helped others with more experience than Qingping (Ling Mama). It is appropriate for us to do stocks for you. We are also selfish and want you to help us sell goods more with all our hearts."
Ling's mother also reacted at this time, and then said to Ling's father, "Her father is right. We are all a family, we should do business together and earn more money to support the children in college."
Seeing that my sister and brother-in-law were sincere, my aunt refused to refuse, but said seriously: "I know you are all for helping us. I will take over my sister and brother-in-law's kindness. My second sister is right, not for anything else. I have to do it well for Xiao Lingzi to go to college in the future. You can hand over the store to me with confidence."
The matter of asking my aunt to see the store was basically agreed. As Ling Xiaoxiao thought before, her aunt gave her to herself to take care of her, saying that she would go back and repair her bicycle at home and let Ye Ling ride over after school. Looking at Ye Ling's somewhat reluctant expression, Ling Xiaoxiao felt that she would also like to emphasize the study time to Ye Ling later, and she must come over after school and not be allowed to hang out.
Life began to pass as dull as water. Every day, I went home from school and then went home. In addition to taking care of Ye Ling, my life was monotonous and tense. Ling's store's business was getting better and better. The cotton coats and down jackets I had bought before were basically sold out, and a lot of sweaters and sweaters I wore were sold out. Many people came back to find the styles. Ling's mother gathered the payment for the goods and went to Beijing and entered a lot of new goods. However, when she came back this time, she brought Ling Xiaoxiao a Sony Walkman to facilitate her to exercise her English listening.
Ling Xiaoxiao had long wanted a walkman to facilitate her to do listening training at any time. When she took the walkman, she excitedly gave Ling's mother a big hug, and then kissed Ling's mother hard on her face, which made Ling's father's mouth sour.
It is much more convenient to practice English listening with a Walkman. Every day when she goes out for a morning jog, she will put her Walkman in her pocket, running and practicing listening. English listening is also a training in ears. The more she listens, the faster she responds, the more she will be. By the time of the second unified examination, her listening question accuracy has reached 70%.
Ling Xiaoxiao made a review plan for himself. In addition to completing the homework on time every day, the reference books brought back from Jingcheng and Bincheng should be alternately written on several pages every day. When encountering typical questions, they were copied into wrong questions, and all the English words were placed during breaks to memorize. The weaker mathematics and physics were subject to special directional training every night.
A month passed quickly, and soon the second unified examination was ushered in. This time, Fengcheng No. 9 Middle School gave a question. With the first experience, I saw the simulation test of the high school entrance examination again and no one would make a fuss. Even Xu Xiaoying just curled her lips without difficulty. Ling Xiaoxiao no longer had the discomfort when she was just reborn. She would carefully scan the questions and have a clear idea in her heart.
The three-day exam passed quickly, and the test paper was still very fast this time. When the grade list came out, Ling Xiaoxiao found that her total score was nearly 50 more than the previous one. She went up three to seventh place in the class, and also ranked sixty-eighth, and went up to an exam room!
Ling's mother felt so beautiful when she saw her daughter's report card, but the business in her store was getting better and better, and the time to go home became late and later. Ling Xiaoxiao took Ye Ling's lunch and dinner in a small restaurant. Ling's mother felt that she was not worthy of her daughter, so she gave Ling Xiaoxiao a lot of pocket money. She had no time to go out to spend it, so she found a small box to save it all, preparing to take a trip that was about to leave after the high school entrance examination.
Even Ye Ling's pocket money began to increase. When Ling's mother went to purchase goods, she also specially bought a lot of clothes for her. The more the girl dressed up, the more she became, which made Ling Xiaoxiao take care of Ye Ling more strictly, for fear that she would be deceived by those gangsters who didn't like to study.
The results of the second unified examination have improved. During the statistics of the province, each school only reported the average score, highest score, and highest total score of each subject. When the statistics were released, several middle schools in Quanxian ranked at the medium level among all middle schools, but the highest score in the county did not rank in the 100-person list. The 100-person list in the province was almost filled by the junior high schools of three high schools.
With this result, Liang Xuemei once again emphasized the importance of review in class meetings, and advised everyone to devote more energy to studying, be ashamed and be brave. Ling Xiaoxiao flipped through the wrong question book below and passed the solution ideas for each exercise in her mind.
