The na on the test paper was Sheng Yang, her Yangyang!
“Oh, Mom, that’s what I wanted to tell you. My acquaintance told that Sister got a perfect score on the math test, ranking first in the whole grade.” Sheng Yuxi rushed over and blurted it out, finally relieved.
Kang Weizhen excitedly slapped him on the forehead. “Why didn’t you tell about this great news earlier?”
“Mom, you told to shut up!” Sheng Yuxi was aggrieved.
Kang Weizhen was speechless.
She stared at the paper, her eyes widened, her face taut because of disbelief, and she said to herself, “Is this real? I’m not dreaming, right?”
“Yes, it’s real.” Sheng Yang took a sip of tea, looking indifferent.
Sheng Yuxi kept nodding, almost breaking his neck.
“Yangyang, how did you get such a high score on the test?” Kang Weizhen recovered from her shock and looked at Sheng Yang. The Iron Lady spluttered with excitent.
“I just read over the textbook and studied occasionally,” Sheng Yang said lightly, but then she emphasized, “Although I was in Bailuan Village, I could buy all kinds of books from the Internet, and Granny was very willing to buy books.”
Grandma Liu valued education very much. She suffered from a lack of education when she was young, so she was willing to spend money to buy books for Sheng Yang.
However, aware of her economic conditions, Sheng Yang only used her money to buy one or two books and earned most of the money by herself, which didn’t take much of her ti.
“Oh, I shall thank Grandma Liu for that.” Kang Weizhen couldn’t help but shed tears. “You’re so smart, honey. You’re a really worthy daughter!”
She had always felt it was a pity that she was absent from her daughter’s upbringing and failed to give her a good living environnt, but now these regrets had been alleviated sowhat.
Yangyang was lucky to have been adopted by a good person. Although she had been through a lot of hardships, she was talented, sweet, and considerate. No one could look down on her daughter.
Sheng Yuxi was also excited. He then took out his cell phone and texted his second brother.
“Second Brother, Yangyang got first place in the whole grade on her math exam!!! Perfect score!!!
Sheng Hanjing: “Aweso! Congratulate her for . Tell her not to overstretch herself and take care of herself.”
His tone was mild and intimate, full of care for his sister.
Little Cutie Sheng Yuxi nodded hard. “Yes!”
Everyone was happy, including the servants. It was rare to see Madam so happy.
Kang Weizhen imdiately called her husband and told him this. They talked excitedly on the phone as if they had just fallen in love.
To celebrate his daughter’s success, Sheng You vowed to give all his employees a raise of one thousand yuan to share his joy with them and let everyone know how great his daughter was.
Not long after they hung up, the landline rang again, and Kang Weizhen strode up to the phone and picked it up without even looking at the caller ID. “Hey!”
She was very happy today, so her voice sounded very cheerful.
“Weizhen.” Being hung up on by Kang Weizhen last ti, Madam Sheng was upset for a long ti. She was angry that Kang Weizhen didn’t even call her to apologize! Did Kang Weizhen know how carefully her second daughter-in-law waited on her?
She had decided to give her eldest daughter-in-law the cold shoulder to make her reflect on her mistake.
But today, her second daughter-in-law ntioned that Sheng Yang had just taken a math test recently. She felt that this was an opportunity to persuade Kang Weizhen to take that disgrace of the Sheng Family out of Yan City High School.
If she couldn’t keep up with her classmates, she would lose face and might even have a nervous breakdown.
Now, it should be easy to convince Kang Weizhen. For the sake of her baby girl, it was ti to transfer her to another school.
Madam Sheng comforted herself. Sheng Yang had disgraced the Sheng Family on this exam, but she wouldn’t let this happen again. As long as she left Yan City High School afterward, the business partners of the Sheng Family would soon forget and wouldn’t treat her like a laughingstock while playing mahjong.
“Hi, Mom!” Kang Weizhen was so happy that even her voice sounded as crisp and cheerful as a young girl and she wasn’t guarded at all with her difficult mother-in-law.
Madam Sheng raised her eyebrows.?Why’s she so happy?
After the disgrace returned ho, her eldest daughter-in-law had no demands; she just wanted her daughter to be happy.
Madam Sheng certainly wouldn’t allow that!
Without any rules, she might even make the Sheng Family lose their company!
“Weizhen, did you think about what I suggested to you last ti?”
“Huh? What did you suggest?”
“Transfer Sheng Yang to another school. I an, remove her from Yan City High School.”
Jiang Xinyi was massaging Madam Sheng’s shoulders like a maid. She could clearly sense that Madam Sheng could hardly suppress her inner anger and had beco impatient.
“No way. Why should I?” Kang Weizhen was still smiling. She was a smart person, so she wouldn’t get angry with unworthy people.
Besides, today was a good day.
“Why?! She did so poorly on the exam and you ask why? Kang Weizhen, don’t go too far! Our Sheng Family is a highly-respected family!”
Kang Weizhen sneered. “Mom, firstly, the Kang Family is no worse than the Sheng Family, and my parents didn’t say anything.”
“We’re different.” Madam Sheng quibbled.
“Secondly…” Kang Weizhen glanced around, and when she had ensured that Sheng Yang had gone upstairs to read, she said domineeringly, “Who told you my daughter did poorly on the exam?”
“What do you an? Just because you feel like you owe her sothing doesn’t an you should treat her as a treasure. No one else thinks she’s a treasure! Instead, people view her as a laughingstock!” Madam Sheng said harshly.
“Who dares to treat my daughter like a laughingstock? I swear I’ll make him regret it!” Kang Weizhen enunciated each word, and even Madam Sheng was a bit scared by her tone. Madam Sheng said much less aggressively, “I didn’t an that, but I can’t control how others think.”
Now she disliked Kang Weizhen even more. How dare she talk to her mother-in-law like this? Did she have any manners?
“Haha…” Kang Weizhen laughed loudly. “It’s not that I treat her like a treasure but she IS a treasure! No one can look down on her.”
Madam Sheng was so amused that she laughed. “I’m telling you that Sheng Yue is the only worthy granddaughter of the Sheng Family.”
At this ti, Sheng Yue happened to co back. When she heard this, she turned dark.
“Yueyue, you ca back at the perfect ti. Your aunt must be too ashad to tell us Sheng Yang’s score. Tell —how did Sheng Yang score on the test?”
Sheng Yue looked away, but Jiang Xinyi also nodded to her and motioned for her to say it.
Madam Sheng deliberately put her on speaker to teach Kang Weizhen a lesson.
“Go ahead, Sheng Yue, just say it,” Kang Weizhen said casually.
