Capítulo 834: Chapter 833: More Than Just Good Fortune
Jiang Changhai took out three hundred yuan from inside, ready to go give it to the elderly as a gesture of respect; this was a decision their family had made a while ago.
Originally, they planned to wait until the Town No. 1 Middle School’s three hundred yuan scholarship was awarded and then give half of it to the elderly couple.
But since the Town No. 1’s prize money would only be given out at the award ceremony, and they already knew how much the money was, they decided to take half directly from the City No. 2’s prize money instead.
“Let’s go, daughter, let’s head to your grandparents’ place.” Jiang Changhai said happily.
“Okay.” Jiang Mianmian held her father’s hand, and the two happily walked out.
Jiang Changhai rode the bike with his daughter on the back, humming a tune all the way, happily headed towards Stone Bridge Village.
Because of Teacher Fang’s visit in the morning, they were delayed a bit, so it was almost ten o’clock when they reached Stone Bridge Village.
The villagers, who had been working since early morning, were now sitting on both sides of the road taking a break after working all morning.
When they saw Jiang Changhai and his daughter coming back, they warmly greeted them, “Changhai, Mianmian, you’re back? How did our Little Prodigy from Stone Bridge Village do on the entrance exam?”
“Yeah, Mianmian, did you get first place in this exam?”
Although Jiang Mianmian was now almost ready to enter high school, the villagers still enjoyed teasing her like a child, as she was indeed still young.
They were just teasing her kindly.
They all knew that every year, the entrance exam was taken by all students citywide, and even if Jiang Mianmian was brilliant, smart, and talented, it would be hard to outperform those city kids who had received excellent education from a young age.
But they didn’t expect that after they asked, Jiang Mianmian smiled brightly and nodded, saying loudly, “Uncles, I actually got first place again this ti!”
“What? First place again?” The villagers thought they had misheard and asked in shock.
“Yes, this ti in the entrance exam, I got first place again.” Jiang Mianmian repeated.
“That’s right, brother, my daughter topped the city in the entrance exam this ti, she’s the top scholar, right? Impressive, isn’t it? Didn’t let Stone Bridge Village down, right? She’s the pride of our village, isn’t she?” Jiang Changhai’s voice was also loud when he said this.
The villagers, who had finished their work and were cooling off under the trees, ca running over in shock and excitent, asking in disbelief, “Changhai, is it true what you’re saying? Did Mianmian really get first place in the city? Is she the top scholar?”
“Of course it’s true! Why would I lie to you? The Town No. 1 Middle School’s banner is still hanging at the school gate; if you don’t believe it, you can go and see.” Jiang Changhai said with great pride.
“My goodness, Mianmian actually topped the city?”
“This child must be the reincarnation of the Wenqu Star, she’s so smart. Changhai, your Old Jiang Family must have had so luck; with this child, your Old Jiang Family won’t have to worry about anything in the future, just wait to enjoy life.”
“Not just lucky, it’s like it’s burning up; this child must be here to repay kindness, you two must have done a lot of good deeds in your previous life.”
The villagers looked at Jiang Changhai who stood proudly and at Jiang Mianmian who was smiling on the back of the bike, and they all started praising them fervently.
So young guys in the village, who enjoyed good news and a lively occasion, upon hearing the news, imdiately sprinted towards the place where the Jiang family mbers were working.
