Rebirth of a Fat Girl's Youth Diary

  While having dinner, Gu Xiang and her mother discussed her own school matters.

  Although now she eats lunch at school in the afternoon, her mother has already made fewer trips.

  But going back and forth like this, taking nearly half an hour each way. And when school lets out, I still have to wait for her outside the school gate for a while. It's really exhausting.

  Mom Gu was unhappy: "I'm driving you and it's still not good enough?"

  "Nothing, I'm just worried you'll be too tired!"

  Her mother smiled and thought her daughter would be worried: "It's okay, Mom is not tired! When you get off school, there are more buses near your school, and I don't even worry about you being alone."

  "Besides, what's there to worry about? I should learn to be independent too."

  Her mother refused to listen: "No way, I'm just not at ease! You're only thirteen years old, what independence?"

  "Your age is fourteen now."

  Gu's mother picked up a piece of braised pork with her chopsticks and handed it to her, saying: "It's pretty hot today, you'll be sweating all over after walking for twenty minutes on the road, and when you get back, you won't even have an appetite for dinner."

  Mom, you're overthinking it, I can still guarantee that I'll eat dinner.

  Gu's mother refused to give in, so Gu Xiang decided to learn how to ride a bicycle over the weekend.

  She was actually able to ride in her previous life, this life just needs to pretend to learn.

  After dinner, Mrs. Gu washed dishes and Gu Xiang helped wipe the table.

  Not long after, Mrs. Gu was preparing to close the shop door.

  During the summer vacation, her mother allowed her to walk home alone, but after school started, she accompanied her every day.

  Gu Xiang returned home and took a bath first.

  She had just changed into her pajamas and was about to start doing her homework when her mother brought in half a watermelon for her.

  Watermelon is red and sweet.

  Gu Xiang didn't use much effort and ate more than half of it.

  Math and language were finished quickly.

  Gu Xiang put English last, and Wang Laoshi's homework assignment was the most.

  Sent an A4 double-sided test paper, all about lesson 1 and lesson 2.

  Many knowledge points even exceeded the scope. The exam is very detailed and meticulous.

  Even someone as diligent as Gu Xiang took a pretty long time to finish the exercises.

  By eight o'clock, all three assignments were finished.

  Yesterday was a big cleaning and physical examination, so I came back very tired. After tidying up in the evening, Gu Xiang went to bed at 9 o'clock.

  It seems like I'll have to buy some extracurricular materials and bring them back home to work on.

  Gu Xiang flipped through her backpack, pulled out her English book and began to recite the lessons for the past two days, then previewed tomorrow's lesson.

  It was almost nine o'clock when Mother Guo washed and peeled another bowl of taros for her, only to see Gu Xiang still there, moving her mouth back and forth as she recited her lessons.

  Mom Gu asked strangely: "How come you have so much homework just after school starts?"

  "Not much, I've finished writing it, now I'll recite the lesson."

  Gu Xiang put down the book and pinched two lotus roots into her mouth.

  Crunchy and sweet, especially delicious.

  By nine o'clock, Gu Xiangshu had also memorized it thoroughly.

  Then flipped through math books for preview.

  Mr. Jiang said before that the students in front had scores above 90, so they must have finished reading all the books.

  She is already one step slower than others in this invisible way.

  At nine thirty, Gu's mother came in and closed her book.

  Gu Xiang cried and laughed: "What's wrong?"

  Mom said seriously: "It's time for bed, you're growing up, sleeping late will affect your growth."

  Gu Xiang said: "Then I was still sleeping at 10:30 in sixth grade."

  "Mom helped her pack the books and draft paper into her backpack: "It's time for exams, special period." Then suddenly changed the subject and said: "Isn't it time to change this backpack? Why didn't you say so before school started today.""

  As they were talking, Mrs. Gu suddenly thought of something: "Wait a minute, didn't you buy any school supplies this year?" She then rummaged through Gu Xiang's backpack and took a look: "You didn't even buy a notebook!"

  Gu Xiang was nonchalant: "I washed my backpack two days ago. There are still a lot of pens from sixth grade that can be used to write. What's the point of buying new notebooks and paper? Books are for people to flip through, right?"

  She's not a kid anymore, can she still mess up the book?

  "Where's your notebook? You have to buy one, right?"

  Gu Xiang took out a stack of new notebooks and showed them to her mother: "I bought them at the school's small store, 35 cents each."

  Her mother gave her 10 yuan a day for pocket money, and her meal expenses were calculated separately, which was basically impossible to spend.

  Gu's mother felt a little heartache for her.

  Although it is said that poor children grow up early, when Gu Xiang seemed to suddenly mature, she felt very uncomfortable in her heart.

  She didn't want Gu Xiang to feel the pinch of life from a young age.

  Gu Xiang saw that her mother's complexion was not good and didn't know what was wrong. She quickly put away the books and stationery, and accompanied her mother to the living room to watch Korean dramas.

  Gu's mother was still watching "Parisian Lovers". Gu Xiang left some saliva on Li Dongjian's face for a while, and then shared the remaining watermelon with her mother.

  At ten o'clock, I brush my teeth and go to bed.

  Gu Xiang lay on the bed and was still thinking about it. Tomorrow, she would go ask Tang Lulu which extracurricular materials were better and buy one back to do.

  The next morning, Mrs. Gu got up early and cooked breakfast before calling out to Gu Xiang.

  Gu Xiang finished a bowl of braised pork ribs noodles made by her mother and sat on an electric tricycle with a full stomach.

  Not to mention, having some hot soup in the morning is really comfortable.

  She arrived at school before the morning reading class had started.

  Tang Lulu and Li Wei both held books and started reading.

  Lin Jiahuan arrived a bit later than her, with a bag of pure milk in her mouth. She almost missed the appointment.

  The morning reading and first lesson were both in English, so Wang Laoshi brought over a stack of books and some white paper.

  Everyone saw her holding a white paper and got a little nervous. Therefore, the recitation sound in the morning reading class was particularly loud.

  When they were out for exercise, Lin Jiahuan complained to Gu Xiang: "Teacher Wang is too intimidating, I don't dare say a word."

  Gu Xiang said: "Isn't that just right? Let you focus."

  "The thought of being taught by her for the next three years makes me feel so gloomy."

  Gu Xiang could only comfort her: "It's okay, Teacher Wang isn't the class advisor. And I think Teacher Wang is actually a good person, she's just a bit strict."

  Lin Jiahuan said: "Where did you get it wrong? Write it 50 times! A long phrase has to be written in a line."

  Gu Xiang actually also felt a bit that just after school started, everyone was so afraid of Wang Laoshi, it's probably not a good phenomenon.

  This feeling became even stronger in English class.

  There is no interaction in class at all.

  Every time a teacher teaches, there will be interactions with students. Now in Class 1, not to mention actively answering Teacher Wang's questions, there are many people like Lin Jiahuan who dare not lift their heads after making eye contact with Teacher Wang.

  The classroom atmosphere is too depressing.

  The consequence of this was that Wang Laoshi began to frequently look at Gu Xiang.

  Gu Xiang could only force himself to interact with her.

  This lesson is particularly difficult.

  In comparison, Mr. Jiang's math class was a breeze.

  As long as you listen carefully, even if you answer questions incorrectly, Teacher Jiang won't say anything.

  In the afternoon's self-study class, Teacher Jiang didn't come, probably because all the head teachers went to a meeting. The discipline in the classroom was very poor.

  Zhao Lei sat on the podium and shouted "Don't talk" several times, but nobody paid attention to her.

  Later, she saw who was talking and wrote their names on the blackboard with white chalk. The class finally quieted down.

  Lin Jiahuan rented a book called "The Wolf's Seduction" from the rental bookstore at the door and hid it in her desk drawer to read slowly.

  Gu Xiang and Tang Lulu, Li Wei are doing their homework.

  Gu Xiang suddenly thought of the reference materials and wrote a small note to pass to Tang Lulu.

  Soon, Tang Lu nodded and handed the note back.

  Gu Xiang raised her head and saw Zhao Lei staring at her.

  Isn't self-study class just about maintaining discipline?

  What's with this fierce stare?

  Fortunately, Zhao Lai still gave her some face and didn't write Gu Xiang's name on the blackboard.

  Halfway through self-study class, Gu Xiang heard a commotion coming from Class 2 next door and nudged Lin Jiahuan.

  Lin Jiahuan pushed the book into the desk drawer with a "thud" like a startled bird.

  The eyes of all the classmates were focused over here.

  Lin Jiahuan felt embarrassed and leaned into Gu Xiang's ear, whispering: "What's wrong? You scared me to death."

  The words had not been spoken yet, and Teacher Jiang already came in.

  Mr. Jiang held a notebook and let Zhao Lei go down, then sat on the podium himself.

  Lin Jiahuan patted her own chest again and said "Scared me to death" once more.

  Mr. Jiang cleared his throat and said, "Just now the head teacher had a meeting, there's something I'd like to tell everyone. You all know that our school has a broadcasting station, right? Now we need to select one boy and one girl to be the hosts, is anyone interested?"

  My classmates were still very enthusiastic and immediately began discussing it enthusiastically.

  Of course, there are also people like Lin Jiahuan who take this opportunity to come and chat with him.

  "Thanks for reminding me, otherwise I'd be in big trouble!"

  "You're also one of them, daring to watch in school, you've got a lot of guts!"

  "I've had this book rented for two days and I still haven't finished it! It's almost due back, all because my aunt came to stay with me after she got into a fight with my uncle. She sleeps with me at night so I couldn't read then either! Sigh, Banjun is just too handsome!"

  Everyone discussed for a while and still didn't come up with what to eat.

  Mr. Jiang said: "If there wasn't self-recommendation, I would have directly assigned someone."

  Tang Lulu and Ning Peng were finally designated.

  Not to mention, both of them are quite pleasing to the eye.

  After finishing this matter, Teacher Jiang called out Zhao Lei, Gu Xiang and other class cadres.

  Several people still don't understand what's going on.

  Mr. Jiang asked them in his office: "What do you think of your teacher Wang?"

  Everyone looks at me, I look at you, but no one speaks up.

  Mr. Jiang pointed at Chai Zi Yu and said: "You're the only boy here, you speak up!"

  Chai Zi said with a smile: "This thing should be asked of Gu Xiang, she is the English class representative after all."

  This is unfair!

  Gu Xiang just wanted to stare him down.

  Jiang Laoshi turned around again and looked at Gu Xiang.

  Gu Xiang said: "Teacher Wang is strict and grasps the rhythm quickly. It's different from the teachers in elementary school, maybe some classmates are not used to it yet."

  Gu Xiang remembers her elementary school English teacher, who would have them practice dialogues in pairs using the textbook scenarios during class, which was quite interesting.

  Teacher Jiang nodded and said, "Teacher Wang used to teach second-year junior high school students. The classmates in the second year were severely polarized. Teacher Wang can help her classmates recognize their own positioning. Now she is willing to come and teach first-year students, which also shows that she values our class 1. If any of you are dissatisfied with Teacher Wang, you must tell me in time, do you understand?"

  That's why some parents of students have reflected their opinions on this matter.

  Also knock them to reflect the dynamics of the class in a timely manner.

  Several people nodded in succession.

  Mr. Jiang said another thing:

  "Next Monday it's our class's turn to raise the flag. This time Zhao Lei, Gu Xiang and Chai Zi Yu will go first, next time Tang Lu Lu and Li Wei you two will go. Alright?"

  Everyone was fine with it after he explained it so openly and honestly.

  Not like in elementary school when we would fight and scheme against each other for the chance to raise the flag.

  Gu Xiang found Teacher Jiang more and more to her liking, not treating them like children, and doing things openly.

  Also heard Teacher Jiang say: "You three remember to practice after school every day, our school has over a thousand people watching."
