Chapter 184: Chapter 186: A Match Made in Heaven
And just like that, the sleeping arrangements for her two little followers were pleasantly settled.
Of course, they couldn’t do without revising at night. However, there was no longer any need for Tang Yuxin to guide, everyone studied on their own. When she woke up in the morning, she found that she was always the last to get up. Because in the yard, Xu Miaomiao and Chen Lidong had already started reciting from their books. She rested her hand on the windowsill and then propped her face up.
Just look at how wonderful this is.
Childhood sweethearts.
The emotion built over years.
Indeed, a match made in heaven.
She squinted her eyes and took out a pill from a small ceramic pot on the table. She put it in her mouth, then stretched out her hands and looked at them, now much whiter.
Indeed, now is when the medicine is really taking effect.
“Yuxin, why do I feel you’ve gotten much whiter recently?”
Xu Miaomiao put her own hand in front of Tang Yuxin’s face to compare. Yes, she had gotten whiter. The first time she saw Tang Yuxin, she was a little dark-skinned girl. But now she had suddenly become so fair.
“Winter is here.”
Yes, she lifted her head and looked at the warm sun above, which was also gentle.
She really wished that she could be treated gently in this lifetime, whether as a child or when she grows up.
“Did you apply something?” Xu Miaomiao reached out and sniffed Tang Yuxin’s sleeve, “Why does it smell so nice?”
“Violet scent.”
Tang Yuxin looked at her as if she was a country bumpkin. Violet scent was five cents a packet, one packet could last a whole winter. This kind of violet scent also had another name, Snow Frost. It was a fragrant smell.
Of course, Tang Yuxin also used Snow Frost, a new young girl, just hitting puberty, didn’t need a lot of skincare or cosmetics. During ordinary days, she just needed to keep clean. Of course, the certain fragrance on her was not from Snow Frost. No matter how much Snow Frost she applied, she couldn’t possibly get such a fragrance.
This faint body fragrance was from the Cold Fragrance Pills she had been consuming for almost ten years.
It was only until now that she truly believed in what Chen Zhong had said years ago, about making the skin as white as snow and the bones emanating an exotic fragrance.
Upon hearing this, Xu Miaomiao really believed it. She went home and bought several more packets of violet scented ointment. She didn’t believe that she couldn’t reproduce that fragrance on her own.
The examination the next day didn’t make anyone nervous because of this little incident. After all, they had prepared incredibly well, getting up earlier than others every day and going to bed later. There was no reason they would fail the exam.
So this exam went smoothly for them. The questions Tang Yuxin didn’t guess precisely, but they had studied most of them. So their grades shouldn’t be bad either when the results come.
Only after the last subject was finished did they truly feel liberated. Then they were just waiting for the results before the New Year. Whether this year would be good or not depended on the results of the final exam.
The significance of this score was not minor, as it had to do with how they would celebrate the year. It bore upon matters like whether they would be scolded or whether they would get more New Year’s money.
In their era, Tang Yu’s generation was the first generation of single children in China. When relatives came to visit, the topic would inevitably turn to the children’s education.
Parents of children who were clever and doing well in school would, of course, have face. On the contrary, if a child was foolish and lagging in studies, even the parents would feel shame to go out.
“Sisi, look at what brother brought for you?”
Chen Lidong took out a doll from behind and waved it in front of Sisi. Sisi was so happy that her eyes were almost disappearing from her smile.
“Do you like it?” Chen Lidong squatted down and put the doll in Sisi’s hand.
“Thank you, brother,” Sisi was a well-behaved and polite girl, which made many people fond of her.
Chen Lidong pinched Sisi’s little face, thinking how soft and cute she was, just like freshly steamed buns made by his mother. So soft, so pinchable.
Sisi gleefully allowed Chen Lidong to pinch and rub her face while giggling.
“Chen Lidong, stop bullying Sisi,” Xu Miaomiao couldn’t help but roll her eyes, “Have we come here to study or to flirt with someone’s little sister? Sisi is so young, and you’re not focusing on your studies, only playing.”
Chen Lidong shrugged his shoulders and quickly walked over. They had all decided to study at Tang Yuxin’s place during this winter break. Tang Yuxin had not only helped them improve their basics, made their handwriting prettier, but also stimulated their interest in learning.
Before, they didn’t like studying. Everyone had subjects they didn’t like, theirs just happened to be more. Carelessly, they possibly disliked all nine subjects, or maybe all of them.
But now they found studying all subjects much more comfortable than before. This ease brought them interest. So apart from teaching, Tang Yuxin also helped them develop more significant interest towards studies.
If someone had told them before that they could stop playing, going out, watching TV during vacation, and sit in one place for hours to keep their heads buried in studies, just like at school, they probably wouldn’t have believed it.
But now, see the reality for themselves: they are studying.
They need to review what they learned this semester and preview the materials for the next semester. No, with the freshman year almost over, if they don’t pick up the pace, it would become difficult to keep up in sophomore year. The textbooks for the second semester of the first year were borrowed from Li’s dad. He borrowed three sets, one set for three kids. To return this favor, while Tang Yuxin previewed, she also included the two.
When the results of the final exams were announced, they especially made a trip to the school.
Their homeroom teacher, Mr. Liu, walked in with a smile. Seeing her expression, it looked like their class had done well. Otherwise, at this time, instead of smiling, she would have had a bitter melon face.
“This time, everyone did well,” Teacher Liu looked around the class, “everyone’s grades have improved. The ones that did well should strive to do better, and the ones who didn’t do well should reflect on themselves. Although you are freshmen now, you will soon be sophomores, and once you’re sophomores, you will be very close to being juniors. Whether you can continue to study, or have to drop out halfway, will depend on how you spend the upcoming year.”
