Tree Hole Self-Rescue Guide

All the people are mediocre, ants look up to the clear sky...

"Dad, the top student has made a list of books for me. You can ask Secretary Zhao to buy them and send them to me. Maybe I can get above 800 in the final exam." Brother Wang turned around and smiled foolishly.

Father Wang looked at his son who had suddenly become sensible and sighed. He had never expected his child to have a bright future since he was weak and sickly. He thought that if he didn't do well in school, he could just learn a skill to survive. He didn't expect that a fool would have good fortune. He started studying with Xu Xiaoxiao and Mo Zhichun early on, and his grades were pretty good. Now that he has received such great care from others, he should be very grateful to them.

"Dad, you should stop listening to the bragging of parents from other classes in the future. There are really not many students in the experimental class across the street who scored higher than Xu Xiaoxiao." Brother Wang began to educate Father Wang again.

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. I'll learn from your mutual aid group, and when I get home I'll study English with your mom." To show his determination, Dad Wang sold Mom as well.

All parents came except a few who could not attend. Parents of Class 18 have always been disappointed with their children's grades, but they also know that their children have a short-lived problem, and it is good that they have not gone astray in other aspects. As a person, it is important to be content with what you have.

The head teacher made a table comparing Gu Ye's grades from primary school to midterm exams. Gu Ye's scores in physics, chemistry and biology improved from 500 to 800, and his scores in physics, chemistry and biology improved from a few dozen to 80. The figure in the surveillance camera who was busy doing the questions, and the pile of test papers and exercise books on the desk all made the parents see another possibility.

As the founder of the mutual aid group, Mo Zhichun and Xu Xiaoxiao's achievements are obvious to all parents. But seeing the score of more than 800 on the transcript is still shocking. Especially when their children may not even get half of their scores. They have never bargained in half at the vegetable market, which makes their children lose face. So we will take the opportunity of the parent-teacher meeting to solicit parents' opinions and set up an experimental group within the class. Those who are interested can discuss with the students before signing up.

Of course, there are also parents of students who don’t study at all and are very worried that their children cannot keep up with the high-intensity study plan and raise questions.

"Student Xu, our Li Kai's score of 200 is likely to be less than 800 even if we follow your study plan. He doesn't use his brain to study." Li's father asked, raising his hand.

"That's why we form a two-person mutual aid group. We find two classmates with similar levels and draw up a modifiable study plan based on their learning situation and the expectations they want to achieve," Xu Xiaoxiao explained.

"For example, if Li Kai sets his goal at 400 points, he should lay a good foundation first. When his score reaches 400, he will not be satisfied with 400 points and will raise his goal again and again. If one learns enough in this process, the importance of helping classmates will be reflected. The improvement of each other's grades is both a pressure and a motivation. It's like two people playing a PK game. After winning once, they want to win all the time." Xu Xiaoxiao explained.

“However, this requires two students who trust each other to complete it, and sometimes the pressure of two-person competition can be quite high, especially in the later stages when the improvement in grades slows down, and the mentality may require guidance from parents. So please consider carefully before joining the mutual help group, parents and students.” Mo Zhichun added.

"After spending so much time with my classmates, I feel that the students in Class 18 are all very smart, lively and cheerful, and have a wide range of interests. Maybe they are only interested in studying for a short period of time, or their learning methods are wrong. But they are all good. A small change may lead to a miracle. As a member of Class 18, I am very fortunate to have met this group of lovely classmates." Mo Zhichun praised Class 18 as a group to the parents in the audience.

“There are thousands of paths in life, but learning is probably the easiest one. There are partners who cheer you up together, and a group of like-minded friends. We all have come through the childhood of fighting and quarreling, so I assign an assignment to parents. Take an hour to calmly chat with your children about each other’s plans and views on the future. This parent-teacher meeting is over. Please do not leave the classroom and wait for the children to arrive.” The teacher put the PPT on the last page, looked at the watch, and breathed a sigh of relief. Twenty minutes was just right.

Each parent brought their children to have a heart-to-heart talk, and would look over at Xu Xiaoxiao and Mo Zhichun from time to time.

Xu Xiaoxiao and Mo Zhichun were happy to be free, so they pulled Xu's mother and Mo Wan to introduce Pei Qiubai who was sitting at the back table.

"What Zhizhi said is true, he is indeed much more handsome than your father. Uncle Pei, is your eldest grandson married yet? Do you think our Zhizhi can be your granddaughter-in-law?" Mo Wan scratched Mo Zhichun's nose with his index finger and started chatting with Mr. Pei who was sitting in the seat.

"If they are in love with each other, it's not impossible. Little girl, please don't look down on my Xiaobai." Pei Shangyu stared at Mo Zhichun with a smile.

"Mom, what era is this? Why are we still having arranged marriages? Besides, I'm ready to marry for studying." There's no way to continue the conversation today, so let's go see Lu Xueqin.

"Grandpa, she is shy, don't scare her." Pei Qiubai's warning rang in his ears. The old man thought the little girl was very brave, like a juicy cabbage, but she hadn't yet opened her mind, so his eldest grandson had a lot of work to do.

Facing her father who exuded the aura of "don't get close to me", Lu Xueqian pulled Xu Xiaoxiao to give herself courage. Only then did Lu's father slightly restrain the corners of his mouth.

"Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxue has signed up to join the mutual aid group. She's in the same group with Wang Can, who's at the back. They know each other very well." Father Lu held Lu Xueqian's iron box and exerted force secretly. If his daughter dared to say no, he would take away the mobile phones and computers at home and cut off her internet connection.

"Dad, let go. I was going to join anyway. Xiaoxiao has already made a plan for me." Lu Xueqin rescued the deformed pencil case from her father's hands.

"That's good. Uncle has a meeting at 11 o'clock, so he'll leave first. Come to my house with Zhizhi during the holidays. Your Aunt Li and I will prepare a big meal for you."

Parents are busy with survival and life, working hard to provide a good learning environment for their children, but forget whether what they provide is what their children really need. Maybe it is to have a simple home-cooked meal together, or to say "my son/daughter is great" when their grades improve. How many parents will realize their children's wishes with those unique sticky notes on the desks? I hope it's all of them, after all, every child in Class 18 is worthy of being seen by their parents.

Those who are not interested cannot be taught, and those who are interested do not need to be taught.

The parent-teacher meetings for other classes also ended, and the parents left in groups of three or four, leaving behind a group of students waiting for the get out of class to end and to eat.
