Learning Makes Me Rich Chapter 1

 [She is so poor.]

On a rainy night, the pouring rain drenched Zhou Xiu's body.

She was waiting for her sponsor. The cold, freezing wind poured into her neck, and the young girl's lips shivered and turned white.

She was as thinly dressed as a stubborn and ordinary weed in a corner, and people passing by could not help but look at her in amazement. But she was still reluctant to hide in the KFC to get warm.

The rain poured into her poor-quality plastic shoes, the young girl carried a heavy snakeskin bag, thin clothes, thin shoulders.

Everything about her seems incompatible with this bustling metropolis. At this time, a black car slowly stopped in front of her.

A middle-aged woman walked out of the car holding an umbrella. Her makeup was exquisite like the person on TV. he moment the woman saw the young girl, there was a hint of surprise on her cold face.

"Zhou Xiu? Get in the car." Xi's mother's gaze fell on the snakeskin bag Zhou Xiu was carrying.

Suddenly, Zhou Xiu was embarrassed, and her lips trembled as she explained, "This is a little token of......my parents' support."

Zhou Xiu is not tall, at most one meter six, but the snakeskin bag she is carrying seems to be taller than her, looking comical.

Some time ago, Xi's mother's good sister saved a country girl by chance in the mountains for a picnic.

The good sister narrated Zhou Xiu's story angrily on the phone: "Zhou Xiu is only in senior middle school, she was the first in the school when she took the entrance examination, but did you know? For her cousin’s 50,000-yuan bride price, she was exchanged by her grandma. My dear, she is so young, she is about to marry an old man in his thirties! I paid her the money, that's..."

It is a good thing deed before she finds out she have picked up a hot potato, she thrown it to Mother Xi. She did not have much sympathy as her good sister but providing a little girl's food and clothing is just a matter that can be solved at will.

She said politely: "Get in the car."

Zhou Xiu's snakeskin bag was put in the trunk by the driver, and she got on the car in a daze. After getting in the car, she found that there was a boy in the car.

The boy is wearing a British style light gray diamond check sweater. The sneakers on his feet were clean and spotless, as if they had just been taken off a store shelf.

The leather car cushion in the car is also pure white and flawless. The heating in the car is very sufficient, and people cannot help but yearn for it.

However, as soon as Zhou Xiu lifted her foot, poor quality plastic shoes suddenly cracked the seam, the toe of the shoe with a cracked mouth, revealing the frozen red toes inside. The shoes kept dripping dirty water, Zhou Xiu retracted her toes in embarrassment.

The boy in the car slowly raised his head, his handsome face seemed to be soaked in the sun, his brows eyebrows are raised, with the unique pride and confidence of teenagers.

He looked at Zhou Xiu casually, as if looking at the rubbish on the side of the road. Indifferent and disgusting.

Zhou Xiu's face was a little hot, she skimmed her head and wiped the dirt with the rag handed over by the driver.

"Close the car door and move quickly, I have a meeting to attend later." Xi's mother urged as if giving an order.

Zhou Xiu whispered, "Oh, okay."

---------------------------

Zhou Xiu moved into the Xi's house, and the night was uneventful, no ripples. It was as if there was no extra person in the house, and nothing had changed. Mother Xi rushed to the meeting that night and did not return all night.

The young master of the Xi family, the boy, also did not take Zhou Xiu seriously.

Zhou Xiu took a hot bath, lying warmly under the covers, she had a long dream that night. She dreamed of her nightmarish life.

In the dream, although "Zhou Xiu" escaped the bad luck of marrying the old man in the mountain. However, she fell in love with the young master of this rich family, Xi ShaoYuan.

In the third year of senior middle school, Zhou's dad was seriously ill and urgently needed 50,000 yuan for surgery. "Zhou Xiu" is embarrassed to ask the Xi family for money but can only use the holiday to work hard to earn money.

And Xi ShaoYuan, who celebrated his girlfriend's birthday at the same time, had bought a bracelet worth 300,000 yuan.

When "Zhou Xiu" saw the price tag of the bracelet in Xi ShaoYuan's study and counted the string of zeros, her heartstrings trembled. If she could marry into a wealthy family... all the worries of her life would disappear.

She began to dress according to the type Xi ShaoYuan liked and decided to please Xi ShaoYuan.

In the end, she did not impress Xi ShaoYuan, but people in Xi ShaoYuan’s circle had long been dislike with women like "Zhou Xiu" who wanted to marry a wealthy family.

Finally, "Zhou Xiu's thoughts were discovered by Mother Xi. She was severely humiliated by her, and she was sent back to her hometown to marry an old man...

"I fed, clothed and educated you, and this is how you repay me by seducing my son?"

Thunder flashed outside the window, a silver light flashed, and rumbling thunder sound came down. Zhou Xiu woke up sweating profusely. This dream is too real.

[Hello girl, do not doubt, the dream that I just played for you is the life you will experience next. It must be known that it is useless to rely on the mountains to fall, and to rely on everyone to run. [1] ]

[1] Don't expect a man to be your backer, because he cannot actually give you all your happiness.

[This is the learning system. Young girl, please hurry up and study hard and enrich yourself!]

[It is hard to get a noble son in a poor family. The Galaxy Interstellar Cold Gate Support Foundation Learning System is here to serve you wholeheartedly.] [T/S: That is a long name for a system. LOL]

Sent back to her old home in the mountain valley, what awaits her...… Zhou Xiu, who had just been rescued from the devil's cave, knew nothing more.

In the dream, the woman who gradually turned from clumsy to paranoid, and the one who became crazy for Xi ShaoYang, made Zhou Xiu feel strange and confused. Zhou Xiu did not pay attention to the strange voice in her ears.

In the morning, when she was called up for breakfast by the aunt [maid] of the Xi family, Zhou Xiu saw a well-dressed and neatly dressed Xi ShaoYuan, she was stunned, the night was too hazy last night to see the young master of the Xi family.

His looks were just stunning.

But Zhou Xiu remembered last night's dream, falling in love with him resulting her to be sent back to the mountain valley to marry an old man. Zhou Xiu could not help but tremble and took a step back.

The aunt looked at Zhou Xiu suspiciously.

"You haven't met each other yet? Still so shy, XiuXiu, quickly introduce yourself to the young master."

Zhou Xiu in the dream was very happy, and said a long self-introduction, but did not get Xi ShaoYuan’s response.

Zhou Xiu calmly stated: "My name is Zhou Xiu."

Xi ShaoYuan hummed vaguely. He did not even bother to lift his eyelids, his posture remained the same, and he lazily ate his breakfast.

It seemed that Zhou Xiu was just an insignificant passerby to him. Zhou Xiu sipped the white porridge and thought to herself: Indifference was Xi ShaoYuan's true character.

The aunt of the Xi family sent Zhou Xiu to YuDe Senior Middle School to report. Zhou Xiu walked into her new class with a heavy heart.

Before coming to the big city yesterday, Zhou Xiu was full of expectations for the new school and new classmates. But Zhou Xiu could not be happy about the foreseeable dream last night.

They reject her, despise her, bully her, and have great malice towards her.

Zhou Xiu wore an oversized school uniform, her face was thin, and her long-term malnutrition made her look ordinary and average. Obviously, such transfer students cannot arouse the interest of the teenagers.

"Hello everyone, my name is Zhou Xiu." After a hurried introduction of herself, Zhou Xiu sat down in her seat, and she became a little transparent in the corner.

[Trust me, learning can make you rich, but men cannot.]

[Dear, are you there? Hello. I need your reply here.]

The learning system absorbed the civilization of this era after one night, and quickly adapted to the trend of the times.

Approaching noon, after the last physics class, Zhou Xiu's stomach growled at the right time.

Mother Xi is a very ambitious woman, but she is not meticulous at all in her life. On the first day of enrollment, she forgot to give Zhou Xiu pocket money.

Zhou Xiu and Xi ShaoYuan didn't know each other before, so she would rather stay hungry than deliberately borrow something from him like in the dream, in order to get closer to each other.

She kneaded a ball of wastepaper and diverted her attention by writing the test paper. After writing a multiple-choice question, she pinched her stomach.

[Ding——please try to solve a math problem independently, and the correct answer will be rewarded with 10RMB.] This obnoxious voice sounded again.

Zhou Xiu's eyes fell on the math paper, and she did not believe the words. But better than nothing, Zhou Xiu solved the question.

This is a geometry problem. Zhou Xiu sharpened her pencil, drew auxiliary lines, and patiently solved the problem step by step. She frowned and was so upset that she wanted to throw away the paper several times.

The most prestigious schools are really not comparable to small schools in remote mountainous areas, Zhou Xiu racked her brain.

The girl next to her, named Hua Xu is Zhou Xiu's tablemate. She just woke up and found that there was another student next to her. A quiet girl.

The face is yellow and thin, a look of malnutrition. The morning had passed, and she was so quiet that she did not say a word.

Usually, only the girl is cold to others, no one is cold to her. But for the first time in her life, Hua Xu had a rival. Obviously, her new tablemate is not interested in her at all. She is satisfied. 

At the end of the class, the girl takes out her make-up unhurriedly, patted a little powder and reapplies her lipstick.

The new tablemate did not leave, but directly pulled out the math test paper and solve the question.

The two girls in the back seat, one quietly writing the test paper, the other putting on makeup in the mirror. The two girls are clearly separated, no one is bothering anyone.

The one who made the math problems is the leader of the math department of YuDe, Old Wang, who is notoriously perverted. He usually loves to come up with some strange and bizarre problems to tease everyone, and boringly flipped through the reference answers.

The correct answer is five. Surprisingly, Zhuo Xiu’s answer was right… Hua Xu glanced at Zhou Xiu and knocked on her desk.

"Finish your homework and give me a copy."

Her tone was a little smug. But Zhou Xiu did not care. "You can find it yourself."

[The answer is correct, the 10RMB is already in your pocket.]

The other math problems were also solved in one breath, and Zhou Xiu was ready to rest on the table for a while. But when she unconsciously inserted her hand into her pocket, she felt a piece of money.

When she pulled it out, a gray-blue Mao grandpa was looking at Zhou Xiu with a smile on his face. Zhou Xiu rubbed her eyes and looked startled. Zhou Xiu was convinced that her pockets were empty before, and that the money was indeed "came out of nowhere".

[Dear, please enjoy the fruits of your hard work in time. The fruits of hard work in exchange for knowledge are damn sweet.]

Rely on learning to make money?

This sounds plausible, and the money in her hand convinced Zhou Xiu more! Too crazy! It lay quietly in her pocket, giving a sense of peace of mind.

Various foods appeared in front of Zhou Xiu's eyes, such as hot noodle soup, soft and sweet steamed buns, and eggs with the fragrance of green onions. Zhou Xiu squeezed the money firmly and swallowed.

She hurried to the school cafeteria.

The dining hall of YuDe Senior Middle School is very generous. The soup is free, and the porridge, rice and steamed buns are also free. Even free foods taste good.

Zhou Xiu ordered a portion of meat, and the price of pork went up for ten yuan, which was beyond Zhou Xiu's expectation. She regretted it after ordered the meat, it was a bit expensive.

Zhou Xiu was hungry, the braised pork was fragrant, the gravy was thick, and the stew was fat but not greasy.

She ate five steamed buns with braised pork in one breath and stopped until she was full and hiccup. She rubbed her stomach and squinted, although the meat hurt, but she felt more satisfied than ever.

The second floor of the dining hall, Upstairs Lounge.

"Puff--"

"How long is that girl going to eat, she's already eaten five.”

"She is a transfer student from the next class, and I heard that her family is quite poor. The mug she uses is a donation from Project Hope!"

When Xi ShaoYuan heard the voice, he glanced at it carelessly. He happened to see the poor student his mother sponsored. She had a bowl of white porridge in her left hand, a bowl of rice in her right hand, and an empty tray in front of her. He averted his gaze.

"She looks so skinny. Isn't she afraid of being crushed to death after eating so much?"

Hua Xu, who grew up treating money like dirt, watched as her tablemate went to hit another free serving of fruit and fell into pondering.

Her tablemate seems to...... be a little poor?
