After being reborn, I have seven older sisters.

Li Yufeng immediately stood up and stared intently at the contents of the newspapers.

But after searching for a long time, I still couldn't find the points that Song Chunsheng had just mentioned.

Looking at Li Yufeng, Song Chunsheng thought his homeroom teacher was simply adorable. "Teacher Li, the newspapers pasted on the wall don't have what you're looking for!"

"What?" Li Yufeng looked at him with a surprised expression.

"You just said those ideas came from newspapers. If they weren't these on the wall, then which ones were they? Do you remember roughly which newspaper and time period they were from? I want to find them and take a good look, so that the school leaders and others can learn from them as well."

Song Chunsheng pursed his lips, looking troubled. "The specific time and newspaper name... I really can't remember. Besides, what I said just now wasn't entirely what was written in the newspaper. A lot of it was my own speculation, so it might not be entirely accurate!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yufeng was slightly discouraged, but she quickly rallied.

As long as there is one person who understands her and agrees with her ideas, she feels that all the grievances she has suffered before are nothing.

Moreover, this will further convince her that her tireless work day and night is worthwhile, and that English is not useless as some people say.

Actually, it's just that it hasn't reached the point where it can realize its value yet.

"Chunsheng, we should all have confidence in ourselves. Just like you said, perhaps those words weren't exactly from the newspaper, but at your age, the fact that you can synthesize what you've absorbed from extracurricular reading and produce such refreshing viewpoints and ideas shows that your thinking far surpasses that of most of your peers!"

Li Yufeng picked up the teacup from the cabinet, took a sip, and continued.

"I am truly gratified that you can see the English language will play a huge role in the future."

"Judging from your performance in English class and your test scores, you have indeed done very well, and I am very satisfied. However, if the future of English is really as bright as you describe, then the results you have achieved so far are still far from enough."

"Because you should understand that, as a language, simply reading and writing English well are only the most basic requirements. The most important thing is to be able to understand it and, more importantly, to be able to speak it!"

"I couldn't agree more with you, Teacher. As you said, besides reading and writing, I have also been practicing my listening and speaking skills."

As soon as Li Yufeng finished speaking, Song Chunsheng immediately told her in English that he not only agreed with her idea, but was already putting it into practice.

As Song Chunsheng uttered the English words, Li Yufeng felt as if a dam had been opened, causing her blood to rush to her heart and making her heart beat faster. For a moment, she had the illusion of being back on campus.

Since being assigned to Qinyuan Middle School after graduating from university, she has rarely seen any English words come out of a student's mouth except for morning reading and English classes.

But she saw it right in front of her, and the other person did so without looking at any reference materials, not only without any grammatical errors, but also with such fluency.

"Thank you for your recognition. As your English teacher, I am truly proud of you for speaking such fluent English without any preparation. Can you tell me how you do it?"

"It's actually quite simple. Whenever I'm free, I talk to myself in English, and over time I've become more fluent and made fewer mistakes."

"You're absolutely amazing! May I ask what your dream is?"

Actually, my dream is very simple. I hope to contribute to society when I grow up. I also hope that through my hard work, I can make my family's life happier!

……

While Song Chunsheng and Li Yufeng were talking in English, Song Hongqin, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed like a pair of copper bells, looking at the two of them as if she were a little fool, completely unable to understand what they were saying.

Although Song Hongqin is the class's academic representative, her performance in English class and her exam scores are among the best in the entire grade.

However, when it comes to listening and speaking in English, she is just like those other students who have good English grades—completely deaf and mute.

Not to mention being able to speak, she couldn't understand a single word of even the simplest English conversation.

Therefore, when Song Chunsheng and Li Yufeng communicated entirely in English, Hongqin felt like she was sleepwalking. Apart from watching the excitement, she couldn't understand what the two of them were saying at all!

"Excellent, excellent. You've really impressed me today. I never expected that someone at Qinyuan Middle School could converse with me fluently in English."

"Chunsheng, you've surprised and delighted me!"

As Li Yufeng spoke, she stood up from the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) and went to Song Chunsheng. She took his hand and said in an extremely appreciative tone, "Come on, let's get to know each other again!"

Song Chunsheng let out a soft breath, calming his slightly agitated emotions.

This was the first time he had spoken English face-to-face with someone outside of class, and the person standing opposite him was his English teacher. It would be impossible for him not to be nervous at all.

The reason he speaks such good English is, as he himself said, because when he had nothing to do, he would chatter away to himself for hours.

At first, he would blurt out words one by one, often making mistakes, and his grammatical errors were even more appalling.

But as time went on, not only did his speech become smoother, but he also made fewer and fewer mistakes.

That's why I was so composed in front of Li Yufeng today, which impressed her.

As for his remarks about the enormous uses of English in the future, they were not from newspapers, but from the information about the next 50 years stored in his mind.

After Song Chunsheng calmed himself down, he smiled at Li Yufeng. His calm and indifferent expression showed that he didn't think much of the conversation in English that had just taken for granted.

His expression made Li Yufeng feel that he was a humble and unassuming good student, which made her even more curious about him.

"Chunsheng, if I remember correctly, some of the sentence structures in our conversation just now were from the first semester of the second year of high school. You shouldn't have learned them yet!"

Upon hearing this, Song Hongqin was so shocked that she didn't know what to say.

I thought to myself, "My God, Chunsheng and I are in the same class, and we go to and from school together almost every day. How come he's already learning English sentence structures for the second year of high school? I had no idea. This guy is really... good at keeping secrets!"

Song Chunsheng glanced at Song Hongqin discreetly, then gave Li Yufeng an awkward smile.

Immediately afterwards, he turned around and took out a high school English textbook with a severely worn cover from a row of books on the iron bookshelf behind him, and handed it to Li Yufeng.

Li Yufeng took the book, flipped through a few pages at random, and found that the title page and some blank spaces in the middle had been densely covered with writing.

She recognized it at a glance; most of it was Song Chunsheng's handwriting, but there were a few more elegant characters that she didn't recognize because it was obvious at a glance that they were written by a girl.

When she looked back at the cover, she noticed that the words "Song Chunmiao" were faintly visible in the lower left corner.

Upon seeing this name, she immediately thought of someone—a smart and hardworking girl like Song Chunsheng, who had been assigned to Qinyuan Middle School two or three years ago.

"This is my seventh sister's book!"

Song Chunsheng immediately offered an explanation.

Li Yufeng was instantly surprised, "Song Chunmiao is your seventh sister?"

Seeing Song Chunsheng nod, Li Yufeng immediately recalled some things from her memory that were hard for her to let go of, and couldn't help but sigh, "It's such a pity that your sister couldn't finish high school!"

Song Chunsheng also said with a regretful expression, "I think so too. My sister was an excellent student, but because my fourth and fifth sisters got married one after another, the family suddenly lost two laborers, and my parents really had no choice but to..."

Upon hearing this, Li Yufeng nodded knowingly. "That's just how this era is. There are some things that no one, including you and me, can control. We can only wait for the opportunity to make up for it later!"

"I believe that someone as smart and ambitious as Song Chunmiao will definitely achieve great things and realize her own value in life if she encounters a good opportunity."

Song Chunsheng smiled in agreement, "That's what I think too. I believe Seventh Sister's future will definitely not be mediocre!"

"Teacher Li, what brings you here?"

Just as the two were talking, Song Chunmiao appeared at the door of the west room of the main hall, carrying a hoe and panting a little!
