Chapter 410: 106: The Truth_2

"Yes," Ma Xiuping’s voice came through from the other end of the phone.

Zhou Mei spoke in a gentle tone, "Hello Teacher Ma, I’m Miao Yajing’s mother, Zhou Mei."

"Oh, so you’re Miao Yajing’s mom. Hello. May I ask what you need?"

Zhou Mei weighed her words carefully in her mind before responding, "Nothing serious, I just wanted to ask about our Yajing’s recent academic performance."

Upon hearing that her mother did not mention the incident from this afternoon’s self-study class, Miao Yajing breathed a sigh of relief.

Teacher Ma’s voice came through the cellphone, "Miao Yajing’s mom, Yajing is a very intelligent child. She’s always attentive in class and gets along well with her classmates; you don’t need to worry about that."

Not hearing any other kind of response from Teacher Ma, Zhou Mei also relaxed, then continued, "I noticed that her grades dropped by two places this month. Do you know what happened?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Xiuping said with a smile, "So that’s the concern. Miao Yajing’s mom, there’s no need to worry. The drop in this month’s exam scores isn’t related to Yajing. The thing is, our class gained three transfer students this term, and one of them scored 740 points, while the other two scored 718 and 710 points, respectively. These three directly took the top three spots. Actually, Yajing’s exam scores have improved quite a bit! By the way, didn’t you look at her report card?"

Miao Yajing scored 699 points this time.

Hearing this, Zhou Mei was momentarily stunned.

She had only heard that her daughter’s grades had dropped, and had not thought to look at her daughter’s report card...

After those words, Teacher Ma continued, "Miao Yajing’s mom, is there anything else?"

"No, thank you, Teacher Ma."

"You’re welcome. That’s all then, goodbye."

"Goodbye." Zhou Mei hung up the phone.

Miao Yajing was still standing there.

Zhou Mei glanced at Miao Yajing, "Don’t be too proud of yourself. Reflect on why other students in your class could score 740 points, and you only managed 600 points!"

Hearing this, Miao Yajing could not help but retort, "It’s not 600 points; it’s 699 points!"

Zhou Mei was so irritated she laughed, "What’s the difference between 600 points and 699 points? You’re quite proud of yourself, huh?"

Miao Yajing lowered her head again.

Her mother also had a bachelor’s degree.

She had taken the college entrance examination herself.

How could she not know the difference between 600 and 699 points?

She just didn’t want to admit she was wrong.

That’s always how adults are.

After speaking, Zhou Mei continued, "Go back to your room and study, and I’ll call you when dinner is ready."

Miao Yajing nodded, slinging her backpack over her shoulder as she returned to her bedroom.

Watching her daughter’s retreating back, Zhou Mei shook her head helplessly.

Children these days!

They’re becoming more and more rebellious.

As a mother, she had only said a few words, yet Miao Yajing had such a big reaction!

She really didn’t know how to teach her anymore.

With these thoughts in mind,

Zhou Mei couldn’t help but sigh.

Miao Yajing went back to her bedroom to start her homework.

Her room was spacious.

Not only did it have a princess bed, but also a pretty desk.

Actually, there was a study room at home.

Miao Yajing used to read and write in the study room.

But, at some point,

The study room became her younger brother’s toy room.

Since then,

Miao Yajing had never gone to the study room again.

After writing homework for a while, the bedroom door was opened from the outside.

Then, Miao Yachao walked in.

"Sister."

"Sister!"

Miao Yajing, busy with her homework, couldn’t be bothered with this little troublemaker.

Seeing that his sister was ignoring him, Miao Yachao started playing by himself.

He touched this and that,

Until....

Miao Yajing looked up and saw her brother doodling in her classroom workbook.

She immediately stood up, walked over to Miao Yachao, snatched the pen from his hand, and said angrily,

"Miao Yachao! What are you doing? How many times have I told you, this is my classroom work, you cannot draw on it! How am I supposed to explain this to the teacher?"

She knew that her brother did it on purpose.

That’s just how four-year-olds are.

If their family tells them not to do something, that’s precisely what they want to do!

Miao Yachao, frightened by Miao Yajing’s shout, started crying uproariously.

The crying immediately drew the attention of Zhou Mei, who was cooking in the kitchen; she rushed in worriedly, "What happened? What happened?"

Everything was fine just a moment ago, so why the sudden tears?

Miao Yajing was about to explain, but Zhou Mei cut her off, "Jingjing! Are you bullying your brother again!"

Because she was older than Miao Yachao,

every time anything happened, Zhou Mei’s first question was always the same.

"Why are you bullying your brother?" Zhou Mei was really angry. She was busy all day, and now everyone at home was waiting for her to serve dinner. Miao Yajing, as her daughter, not only wasn’t helping but actually making things worse.
