Ye Zhiyin took it and took a quick look. It was a math test paper, and it was from junior high school.
"junior high school?"
Xie Wenxiu replied, "Yes, I have just entered the first grade of junior high school."
At this time, Xie Momo's handwriting was still crooked, and there were indeed a lot of wrong questions.
Ye Zhiyin looked at it for a while and then asked Xie Momo, "Do you like mathematics?"
Xie Momo glanced at Xie Wenxiu while wiping her tears, as if she didn't dare to answer.
Seeing that Ye Zhiyin was willing to help, Xie Wenxiu stopped disturbing her and left space for the two of them.
"I'll prepare breakfast while you chat."
After saying that, the person left.
Only Ye Zhiyin and Xie Momo were left in the room.
"He's gone, please tell me."
Xie Momo finally stopped crying at this time, but her eyes and nose were a little red, and she looked very pitiful.
She only felt that the Ye Zhiyin in front of her was particularly gentle, and her voice was also very delicate and pleasant, "I...hate mathematics."
"Why?"
"I can't understand what the math teacher said."
Can't understand? That means the foundation has not been laid properly.
"You don't like the math teacher?"
For some reason, Ye Zhiyin felt keenly that Xie Momo had a resistance to the teacher.
"Teachers only like good students and don't like poor students like me at all."
This is a very real problem.
Although Ye Zhiyin has always had relatively good grades and all teachers like her, she also understands how she will be treated if her grades are not good in school.
Although Xie Momo is still young, her mind is already very sensitive, and she can clearly see the unfair treatment.
"Then do you want to be that top student, the kind that teachers also like?"
Ye Zhiyin's words flowed in Xie Momo's ears like the sound of nature, and her eyes were as bright as the stars in the dark night.
"Is it really possible?"
The little girl was a little uncertain.
"As long as you are willing to believe in me and yourself, that's okay."
Years later, when Xie Momo thinks about this day, she can't help but think of Ye Zhiyin's expression when she spoke.
So confident and generous, giving people a sense of hope and dawn as if they were reborn...
In the next few days, Ye Zhiyin would personally tutor Xie Momo in the morning.
Xie Momo also intuitively felt the charm of mathematics. In the past, she would find mathematics boring and boring after listening to the teacher's spitting explanations, which made her less and less interested in mathematics.
But recently, after listening to Ye Zhiyin’s analysis and solution ideas, it’s like opening up a new world. I no longer have to worry about being unsure of the solution ideas.
The first person to notice her changes was Xie Chi.
Xie Chi's grades have always been relatively good, so he has high hopes from his family. He has always been responsible for tutoring Xie Momo's homework.
What bothered him the most was that Xie Momo couldn't teach him anything and didn't make any progress, which made him very depressed.
Recently, he suddenly discovered that Xie Momo could understand it after he taught it to her once. In the past, she couldn't understand it even if he taught it three or four times.
He thought it was his hard teaching that finally bore fruit, and Xie Momo's sluggish mind finally came to its senses.
So he said proudly, "Sister, you are finally acting like a normal person. It was not in vain that I taught you so long."
Xie Momo, who was lowering his head to solve the problem, suddenly looked at him with confusion, "Second brother, what did you say?"
"You haven't noticed that you have suddenly grown a lot recently. This is all my fault."
Xie Chi, who was still young, had a rare hint of pride on his face.
But Xie Momo's next words instantly shattered all his pride.
"Did you teach me?"
"You heartless person, it wasn't me who taught you for so long. Could it be that the math teacher taught you?"
It's rare to offend the always strict Xie Chi.
Because Ye Zhiyin helped Xie Momo with tutoring very early every day, and Xie Chi went out for a run every morning and recited the text by the way, so he didn't know about tutoring.
As for Xie Ye, I don’t know where he has been recently, and he hasn’t even returned home, let alone him.
Only Xie Wenxiu knew about it at home.
Xie Momo saw that she had made her second brother anxious, so she said slowly, "Second brother, do you know that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world."
"What do you mean?" Xie Chi waited for her next words.
"It means you are not the only one who can teach me."
"Who is it? Mom found a teacher for you, right?"
Although Xie Momo is young, she knows many things. "It's not like you don't know our family's situation. How can you have money to hire a private teacher?"
Xie Chi became even more confused, "Then who taught you?"
Seeing that the curiosity of the second brother was aroused, Xie Momo came to him mysteriously and said, "This person is far away in the world and right in front of you."
"ah?"
Xie Chi turned his eyes around the house. It was impossible for his eldest brother. He had always been indifferent to tutoring homework. He could do it himself, but he didn't know how to teach others.
It’s impossible for mom, so there’s only one person left.
The one who stayed at his house recently.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Xie Momo knew that he understood and didn't hide it.
"I'm not bragging, my sister is better than any teacher. She is my goddess now."
Xie Chi has never paid attention to this guest at home. He feels that it has nothing to do with him.
When he heard Xie Momo's words, he said with a straight face, "Xie Momo, don't forget, she is an outsider, don't turn your elbows away."
In his eyes, everyone except his own family is an outsider.
"What's wrong with outsiders? I only know that my sister is good to me, teaches me how to solve problems, and helps me review my homework. Then she is my benefactor."
"Don't help count the money after being sold."
Xie Chi saw that she was stubborn and didn't care about her. After saying this, he left.
He has never trusted anyone and is wary of anyone except his family.
For so many years, his mother has raised them alone. Without the protection of his father, he must be smart enough, mature enough, and strong enough.
As a man, you must protect your mother and sister.
Although the eldest brother has protected them very well over the years, there are always times when the eldest brother is not at home, so he cannot slack off.
He was afraid that his sister would be deceived and she would be fooled after just a few questions.
Just like that time...
He ran out of the house angrily, ran all the way to the phone booth, threw in a coin, and dialed a number.
"Hello?" He was answered quickly.
"Brother, can you go home?"
"What's wrong? What happened at home?"
"It's about my sister. I can't tell you at the moment. Anyway, please remember to come back."
"Okay, I get it."
Xie Ye put away his phone, glanced at the people who were still playing ball in front of him, and shouted, "I'll go home and you guys can play."
Li Hong, who had yellow hair, glanced at him and said, "Are you still coming out at night?"
Xie Ye said without looking back, "Wait for my call."
I saw him holding his coat in his hand, putting it on the car, then putting on his helmet, and quickly left on the mountain bike.
"Brother Ye, what's going on? Are you in such a hurry?"
"I don't know, maybe there is something going on at home..."
