Fortunately, Mu Qingyun was able to hold her own, and she behaved as usual. She should study and play. It didn't take long for the strange atmosphere about her in the class to disappear gradually.
After all, the classmates are all fourteen or fifteen-year-old children. Children of this age are pure in mind. They think Mu Qingyun is cool, and they only show childlike curiosity and admiration.
To be honest, it feels pretty good.
Moreover, studying in the third grade of junior high school is stressful, and students wish they had 48 hours a day to review their homework. Others' matters are not as important as their own academic performance.
The half semester passed in the blink of an eye.
As soon as winter comes, students put on their heavy and clumsy winter uniforms, and the midterm exams are just around the corner.
It is visible to the naked eye that the learning atmosphere in the class is getting more and more tense.
Cai Pandi has not gone home at noon for half a month and has been studying at school until after nine o'clock in the evening.
The evening self-study time for other students has also been visibly extended.
For the mid-term exam this year, several junior high schools in Canghai City, where Xiong County is located, decided early on to unify the exams and rank.
In fact, a few years ago, no one in No. 3 Middle School was interested in taking such an exam.
Who wants to run with me every day?
Even in Xiong County, No. 3 Middle School is just a very ordinary junior high school. Every time the city takes the joint entrance examination, No. 3 Middle School is the same as other ordinary middle schools. Not only the results are at the bottom, but among the top 100 students, only one of the top 100 students can get into it. Five, even if the grades are not bad.
But in recent years, after Principal Wang became the principal, he became quite ambitious and relied on his wealth to attract some good students.
Qi Changzhi in their class is one of the results.
It is said that Qi Changzhi has been a scholar since he was a child and has a good reputation. He has lived up to expectations since he entered school. In the first and second grades of junior high school, whenever there are county and city joint examinations, his results are ranked among the best in the city.
The overall performance is far inferior to others, but with Qi Changzhi in the top ten, the reputation of No. 3 Middle School is much greater than that of ordinary middle schools.
This year, he also had Mu Qingyun who volunteered.
Principal Wang and Teacher Wang stood outside the first classroom, looking at Mu Qingyun as if they were treasures, and they dared to even think about being number one in the city.
Mu Qingyun had no idea about the expectations of the two people outside. She was holding a handkerchief to wipe Cai Pan's tears.
"I'm fine."
Cai Pantian shed a few tears, then wiped her eyes and smiled, "I'm not going to cry. What's the use of crying."
"They said that since I'm a girl, it's useless to study. Girls' brains are slow and far less intelligent than boys. They can't keep up after high school."
"They also said that if I continue studying, I will not only delay making money, delay my marriage, but also waste money. I have to go south to work with Sun Xiu from the next village. They also said that Sun Xiu can now earn three to four hundred a month."
"I--"
Every time Cai Pandi went home, she felt that the house was like a big tiger, staring at her with its mouth open, and would eat her alive if she relaxed.
The girls in their village are indeed living their lives step by step as her parents said. Cai Pandui didn't have deep feelings about these before, until her sister dropped out of school and worked part-time like what her parents said. , get married, have children.
Her sister is only twenty-three years old, but the last time she saw her, several of Cai Pandi's classmates called her grandma in unison.
My sister used to like to tie red ropes into pigtails. She was a beautiful girl who could kick hundreds of shuttlecocks without landing, and could do countless tricks with rubber bands.
Her sister decided to get married when she was sixteen and got married when she was eighteen.
In just five years, her beautiful and youthful good sister turned into an old woman in her forties or fifties.
"I don't want to go down the path they forced me to go down."
Fortunately, although her parents forced her to study, her parents were still willing to pay for her tuition.
"But it's only the tuition and fees for junior high school, and they are willing to pay."
Cai Pan looked at the sadness on his face.
Mu Qingyun: "..."
She couldn't help but think of her father, Mu Siping.
Mu Qingyun didn't understand before, but now that she has experienced so much, she can actually understand what her father did.
Her dad was probably just used to it.
She was used to Mu Qingyun working neatly and since she didn't complain about being tired, so her father thought that the labor she put in was easy and not important.
She took the initiative to take care of her seriously ill grandparents during the critical period of her third year of junior high school. She was moved by herself, but she only moved herself.
Dad didn't take this effort seriously at all.
This kind of neglect was the result of her silent labor day after day, month after month. She doesn't complain, so no one thinks she is miserable.
Mu Qingyun analyzed herself and her father indifferently. When she came to her senses, she saw Xiao Cai gritting his teeth in annoyance: "What should I do if my father has to refuse to go to school!"
Mu Qingyun has never met Cai Pandi's father, but he heard some gossip from his classmates. They said that it rained heavily last year and the students were trapped in school for five days. Cai Pandi's father was treading water. , walked more than fifty miles of mountain roads and brought two jars of pickles to Cai Pandi.
The father and daughter stayed together for less than five minutes before her father stepped on water and walked away again.
This is a father who will ask his daughter not to go to school, and a father who will travel all the way just to see his child because he is worried about his daughter.
Cai Pandui's feelings towards her father should be very complicated, at least, not hateful.
Mu Qingyun has never hated Mu Siping before or now.
She read the script in the system and said that in her life script, she would have a bad life in the future. She would be busy at home like an old mother, but she would end up being kicked out when she was no longer useful.
Mu Qingyun didn't quite believe it. At least at the age of fifteen, she didn't believe that she would become a cowardly fool in the future.
She didn't believe her father could be so cruel.
Mu Qingyun now pushed forward from this result in his mind, making some guesses that may or may not be reasonable.
Perhaps the fifteen-year-old Mu Qingyun was still angry and didn't believe that he would be in such a miserable state.
But what if this didn’t happen overnight?
Perhaps, every time she tried to break free, she was interrupted by an accident or something else. She was subtly influenced, her wings were cut off, her eyes were blinded, and she was not allowed to see outside, leaving her alone for a long time. Blinded bit by bit.
If this process were extended to ten, twenty, or thirty years, it wouldn't be too strange for her, who was stuck in the mud, to become what she had seen in the plot.
At that time, Mu Siping had obviously finished self-hypnosis, and the little bit of genuine affection he had for his daughter was finally slowly thrown away.
