Chapter 188: Chapter 188 Too Long, Too Long

Although they now had several hundred yuan in hand, the meaning of the money was different–it was a symbol of their daughter’s honor!

At this moment, Teacher Liu dropped another bombshell, “The principal has already reported this matter to the commune, and they attach great importance to the fact that a prodigy has emerged from Stone Bridge Village. They’ve decided to honor Jiang Mianmian at the end of the month during the commune’s regular meeting and will also provide her with a certain reward.”

This was, in fact, her main reason for coming today to deliver the results.

Due to various happenings over the past decade, many rural people felt that studying was not as good as farming, and that not being able to graduate from junior high school to work in a factory was a waste of money.

Therefore, after consulting with the commune, the school decided to make a big deal out of it–to let the entire commune know that doing well in school could indeed earn money.

This was to motivate the parents to send their children to receive an education at school.

Upon hearing this, Zhaodi’s indifferent expression finally changed: A commendation from the commune?!

In her previous life, this had never happened!

“What?” The Jiang family members were equally shocked, some even thought there was a problem with their hearing.

They looked at Teacher Liu and then at Jiang Mianmian, not reacting for quite some time.

It was Jiang Changhai who reacted quickly, lifting his daughter up again, “Oh my, my precious daughter, you truly are amazing, you’ve made your dad so proud! I’ve lived this long, attended so many commune meetings, and only ever seen others being commended.”

Jiang Changhai was so excited that his face turned beet red, as if he were the one being honored.

Su Wanyu was also brimming with pride and self-satisfaction; many people in the village used to snub her openly or in secret, calling her a hen that lays no eggs, one who had given birth to a loss-making child.

And now what?

Their sons who were being taught to read and write couldn’t hold a candle to her daughter!

Although Su Wanyu usually appeared indifferent and unconcerned about such matters, who could truly be indifferent to the opinions of others?

The children were all looking up at Jiang Mianmian with admiration and awe, believing that anyone being commended by the commune must be incredibly impressive.

Even their village chief had only been commended once.

It was unbelievable that San Ya could be commended like the village chief!

“San Ya, you’re really Grandma’s good granddaughter. Grandma insisted on sending you to school, and it was the right choice! I knew from a young age that you were a smart and sensible child, and look, it turns out I was right.” Having caught on, Zhang Guihua laughed like Maitreya Buddha, her voice full of tender sweetness.

As if to imply that Jiang Mianmian’s success today was all thanks to her wise judgment.

The second branch of the family felt a mix of emotions upon hearing the old lady’s words; if they knew they could, they would have left immediately.

Teacher Liu, seeing the joy on the faces of the Jiang family members, also started to smile.

Their happiness was good; it represented the value they placed on their children’s education.

Jiang Dashan was also very excited, but he didn’t lose his composure, and spoke with a steady voice, “Teacher Liu, we’ve made you witness our foolishness; we’re just a little too excited.”

Teacher Liu waved her hand and said, “It’s okay, I understand. If my family had a child genius, I’d be even happier than you all.”

Of course, having the opportunity to teach such a genius already made her incredibly excited and honored.

“I have another piece of good news to tell you all. We’ve received the latest information that just a few days ago, the country announced the restoration of the National College Entrance Examination!”

Excitement that she could not contain was evident in Teacher Liu’s voice. As an educator, she had been waiting for this day, longing for this day, for far too long.
