Cartoonist's Dream

On Saturday, a life-changing day for some students, it seemed that even the clear sky began to float dull air, and depressing continuous drizzle began to fall in the city.You don't need an umbrella to walk in this kind of rain, but your head will be covered with sugar after staying in an open place for a long time.

Li Qihua personally led the team and led the six students who were selected in the preliminary round to Tianmang Primary School by car early.The architectural structure of this elementary school belongs to the type of all the way through. Standing at the gate, you can see the football field, playground and teaching building in sequence.There are two school roads on the left and right sides of the gate, and the outside of the school road is the dormitory for teachers and students.In order to save the precious time of parents, Tianmang Primary School has a student dormitory for lunch break in the school.

At this time, forty outstanding students from various urban areas gathered together in the playground.They are all dressed in casual clothes, and they are grouped together, easily belonging to the school camp.Before the school building opened, they gathered at the edge of the playground and sat on the cement stone circle under the tree roots to rest for a while.

The [-] or [-] students gathered under the largest mango tree were all well-dressed, with red lips and white teeth. They were clearly the Tianmang Elementary School team at a glance.This school has the largest number of students participating in any competition over the years. Half of the students who graduated from Tianmang Primary School have won municipal awards.

This time they participated in the Olympiad rematch!Even if you only get the Excellence Award, it can be regarded as a city-level award, which is enough to add a touch to Xiao Shengchu's resume. [

As we all know, the Olympiad medals are issued in proportion to the results. Sometimes a city can't even get a second prize, but sometimes it can win four or five first prizes in a row.If a student can win the first prize in the Olympiad rematch for three consecutive years, the door of Nanhua No. [-], No. [-] and No. [-] Middle School is already open to him.If they still get a place in the national competition, these awards can be used as a stepping stone for the No. [-] Middle School. The school rarely rejects such outstanding students.

Most of the students in Tianmang Primary School graduated with one or two stepping stones.Their students frequently win awards. No matter what kind of avenue they use, at least 50% of their students have won municipal awards when they graduate, which makes parents with school-age children flock to them.

Just like the comparison of the number of people participating in the Mathematical Olympiad rematch now.Pingnan Primary School is slightly thinner than Tianmang Primary School, Xiangtang Primary School is even more shabby in terms of number of students, and the poorest Qingshan Primary School has 16 students.If Limu was present, he would definitely sigh—no wonder Qingshan Primary School can challenge Tianmang Primary School after the completion of the financial district.

On the eve of entering the examination room, the leading teachers gathered the students together.

"Don't worry about taking the exam later. The teacher is waiting for you outside. The teacher will support you regardless of whether you do well in the exam. Don't go home by yourself after the exam..." Teacher Li began to mobilize before the exam.

From time to time, she looked at the school gate of Tianxiao, Pingnan's strongest seed player, Li Mu, had not yet arrived.He had been notified in advance when he was at school, but it was troublesome for him to take the bus, and all kinds of waiting would take him a lot of time, so he planned to ask his mother to send him here.As a result, it has not been seen until now...

"Next will be our moment to change our destiny. Are we weak—? No! We are stronger than other schools, and we are even stronger than Tianmang! Our facilities are just not good enough! The breakfast is not nutritious enough! But our brains are great!"

While Teacher Li was mobilizing, the teachers of Qingshan Primary School also gave a passionate speech, completely disregarding the face of Tianmang School, as if they were declaring war with Tianmang Primary School.

"Do the questions that you know how to do, and check until the last side before coming out. For some students, this may be the last time you win an award, so try a little harder."

Tianmang Primary School is at ease. Occasionally, students who are alone will join their team one after another. After the last two students join the team, the number has reached 36!

The teacher of Xiangtang Primary School looked at the teams of several schools next to him, patted the shoulders of the only two shortlisted students weakly, and said to the two students in a sighing tone:

"Work hard... Come on..."

Three and 10 minutes before the test, the test room is officially open.

In the first 10 minutes, all the students had entered the teaching building.

******

"Oh, Li Mu, you are here, hurry up, Exam Room No. [-]!" Teacher Li saw Li Mu getting off the car at the door, and immediately rushed forward to urge her.

About 15 minutes before the exam, Li Mu walked into the exam room even though he was late, but still felt that he was ahead of schedule.The seating chart pasted at the door showed that he was sitting in the middle, so he leisurely walked over with a pencil case.

The students of each school were equally distributed to each examination room, and Limu found that he was the only Pingnan student in examination room No. [-].

Sitting in his seat, he recognized several students from Qingshan Primary School at a glance, not because they were acquaintances from earlier times or old friends in the future, but because they were all skinny and thin, and they were still wearing uniforms of elementary school students. [

The poorer the children, the more diligent they are in their studies, and the ordinary clothes are a bit outdated and they dare not wear them out, so they simply wear the school uniforms they usually use for class.

According to rumors, Qingshan Elementary School may also wear such clothes on Saturdays and Sundays.Li Muna served as the fourth cousin of the student council president at the Normal University. After graduation, she was poached by Qingshan Primary School to become a teacher with generous remuneration.I once told him at a family gathering that Qingshan Primary School was very poor at that time, but the math teacher worked tirelessly and gave students free Math Olympiad training every week.

It was the last era of fighting for dreams after going to the mountains and going to the countryside during the special period.

Later, the Qingxu district developed into a financial district, and most of the foreign parents could afford the money, so the training courses began to be only for the children of the gold-collar class.

The Mathematical Olympiad training class is divided into ordinary classes and top classes.The slightly poorer students had to earn a living by picking up junk in the financial district, and they were a little reluctant to even study, or rather to attend training courses.While the development of the financial district has brought prosperity to schools, it has also brought disaster to poor students. It is hard to say clearly whether the economic development is good or bad.

In short, rich parents often send gold-plated tableware and gold-thread wood carvings to the fourth cousin's house, just asking to take care of their children during class.

In Li Mu's memory, at that time, most of the fruits in his family were supplied by his fourth cousin's family.Every Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, parents sent dozens of boxes of fruits to her home one after another.The parents said that if you buy too much, it will rot, and the fourth cousin can't refuse; the fourth cousin said that if you don't eat too much at home, it will rot, and the mother Li Xiuli can't refuse.

Farmers in the less affluent suburbs will send carefully selected golden pumpkins in autumn and winter.

It is specially polished with cooking oil, and then tied with a ribbon with a flower knot.

No charge?On the contrary, it hurt their hearts, making them afraid that they were not polite enough, worried that their children would be put on small shoes at school, and they would be anxious at home.

Received?I feel sorry for my conscience, I really don't want to covet that pumpkin, and I end up giving it to my natal relatives to eat.

In fact, it doesn’t matter whether the parents give gifts or not. To paraphrase the words of the fourth cousin, "I am almost annoyed by the parents!"

That's right, uninformed parents give gifts directly at the school.This is unacceptable. After receiving a box of fruit, it will be distributed to other teachers immediately. If you carry it home, you will feel tired on your shoulders.When the family piled up a pile, I had to call relatives to pick it up, but the relatives were not short of the money for the fruit. Even Li Mu, who was in the career selection period, would repeatedly scapegoat, so she always had to find a way before the fruit rotted. send out.

Pingnan Elementary School also gave gifts, but there were very few parents who gave gifts in Pingnan, and it was difficult to develop a gift-giving habit for the time being. There was no "forced" gift-giving due to psychological pressure.Tianmang Primary School is an aristocratic school, so it is estimated that there are many people who give gifts. At least Limu knows that her aunt gives gifts to the teacher two or three times a year.

It's better to be poor, the gap between rich and poor is smaller, and people live in poverty but are happy.

Just when Li Mu was thinking this way, strange thoughts came from the table on the right.He turned his head and looked over, only to see a tall and thin student clenched his fists flat, very much like the "first set and first form" of the military boxing practiced by Da Shengnan!

It seems to be called "Lung Step Punching Style"?

Because Zai Shengnan only occasionally flipped through the book when he was practicing, Li Mu was not very sure about the name of this move.In short, the move is to spin the right fist forward from the waist and rush forward, at this time, the center of the fist is down, while the left fist is retracted at the waist, and the left foot is stepped forward.

However, this tall and thin brother is adopting the posture before making a move, with his hands closed at his waist and his fist facing upwards.

#I can do it, I can win!I can do it, I can win!I can do it, I can win...

Every time you say it, you nod your head, and your fist rises and falls once.

——Ah, the students of Qing Elementary School. [

Without expressing too much emotion, Li Mu withdrew his faint gaze.But not long after, strange thoughts came from the left back corner.

#Down with them, they are all paper tigers!Defeat them, they are all paper tigers! ...

Amazing, Xiao Qing is opening oe!

Li Mu looked back to the left and saw that he was wearing a school uniform on the exam day, and he also looked like a pole. Because his skin was a bit dark, he couldn't see the dark circles under his eyes.His cheeks were sunken like those of a hungry man who hadn't eaten for months, and his eyes seemed sunken into their sockets due to lack of water.

Seeing this, Li Mu withdrew her idea that "it's better to be poor".But I can't help but wonder if that look is really hungry?Isn't it made up from make-up classes on Saturdays and Sundays?After all, the country has not yet reached the point where it cannot eat rice, otherwise turmoil would have occurred under Maslow's theory of five levels of needs.

But Qing Xiao's behavior is finally unbearable!

#fuk, which school is it? It's so noisy.

This time it was the national curse coming out from behind Li Mu, the voice was a bit louder, presumably the two people who were thinking about it could hear it.The evidence is that their voices are getting smaller and smaller, but they still haven't stopped the terrible oe group mocking * group attack skills.

#I can do it and I can win, I can do it and I can win... I can do it and I can win, I can do it and I can win...

#打到纸虎虎，打了纸虎虎...... Hit the paper tiger，Down with the paper tiger......

#Damn it, fukfukfuk is so loud, damn it.

The swearing student probably saw his own swearing, and was very concerned about Qingxiao's annoying behavior.Li Mu seems to have heard the sound of gnashing of teeth behind him, the heavy pressure or the creaking of the front teeth...
