Today was the tenth day after the middle school examination, and the day the results were released.
Ziqing walked on the way to school, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, but her mind drifted far away...
He recalled the hopeful eyes of his parents in his previous life, and the disappointed but encouraging faces of his parents. The relatives 'expressions of showing off, arrogance, contempt, and complacency. Finally, there was the cautious look on his parents 'faces when they went around raising money, and the various excuses, difficulties, lessons, and disdain from his relatives.
Thinking of the past, Ziqing's originally clear eyes flashed with a trace of darkness, but in an instant, they became firm.
In fact, Ziqing didn't hate her relatives. Humans were like this. This was the real world. They looked up to those who were stronger than them and stepped on those who weren't. No one was willing to take out the money in their pockets. Who could they blame if they did not live up to expectations?
Although these relatives had all kinds of faces, in the end, they still raised money for Ziqing's school. Humans were selfish, but they were also made of flesh. Even if they were proud that their children were better than others and looked down on others who were not as good as their children, they could not deny that they all came from the same clan and shared the same surname. Therefore, when Ziqing went to university in her previous life, although they often mocked and despised her, it was undeniable that Ziqing did receive their help.
At the thought of this, he laughed self-deprecatingly. People were just so complicated.
She retrieved her report card from school and rejected her homeroom teacher, Wang Min's suggestion to stay in school. Under Wang Min's undisguised disappointment, she turned around and went home.
The parents at home still had hopeful eyes. They looked at Ziqing with anticipation and nervousness. Although they were anxious, they still carefully observed Ziqing's expression.
Zi Qing couldn't help but want to tease her parents. She deliberately pretended to be in a low mood. Her eyes were slightly lowered as she gently slipped into her slippers. When she saw her parents 'slightly disappointed and worried expressions, she gently placed the report card on the coffee table and sat down. Jiang Qin trembled as she reached out to take the piece of paper that would decide the fate of her family and carefully examined it…
Ai Guohua had been paying attention to Jiang Qin's expression. When he saw her nervous expression gradually turning into shock, his heart sank. He turned around and saw Ziqing's amused expression. He felt that something was wrong. At this time, Jiang Qin's expression had turned into joy, and tears of excitement flashed in her eyes.
"Guohua! Look, am I seeing things? A full score of 760, and our Ziqing scored 750?”When he said the last sentence, his voice could not help but tremble.
Ai Guohua grabbed the report card and looked at it in shock. Mathematics: 150, Chinese: 143, English: 150, Arts: 97, Science: 150, PE: 60. After a long time, he raised his head and looked at his wife, who was covering her mouth and crying, and his daughter, who had been comforting his wife. Ai Guohua's eyes were red as well. Good! Good!"
These three words simply contained too much sadness and relief.
Ai Ziqing somewhat regretted teasing her parents like this. Seeing them cry, Ziqing's heart also felt bitter and unbearable. She hugged her mother and cried, venting the helplessness she had felt during this period of time. She used her tears to bury the past and welcome the change in her life! He suddenly felt very relaxed. The future was about to change…
================================================================================================
In the principal's office.
"Principal, there are three top scorers in the provincial middle school examination this year. All of them are from Yang City. Su Xi from our school, Song Xueyi from Xinwai High School, and Ai Ziqing from No. 4 High School.”A young man wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and a gray suit reported to the middle-aged man behind the desk.
The middle-aged man was the principal of No.1 Middle School, Wang Yan. He was in his forties and was dressed in a black suit without a single wrinkle. He looked meticulous. He had a high nose bridge and eyes that shone with wisdom. His lips were slightly pursed and his thick brows were slightly furrowed.”It was no wonder that he was puzzled. There had never been a provincial top scorer in the No. 4 Middle School. Even the city's top scorer had not appeared in ten years.
"Yes, according to the investigation, the student's academic performance has always been below average. He only studied hard on the eve of the middle school examination and suddenly came out on top. It was said that No.2 Middle School and No.4 Middle School had already started poaching people.”The middle-aged man's voice was still meticulous.
"Hmm, looks like he's a little genius? Hehe, interesting. I'll leave this matter to you. You'll be in charge of contacting their families. No matter what, we can't let these two young top scorers fall into their families.”the middle-aged man said with a smile.
"Yes, I know." The young man turned around and prepared to leave. The middle-aged man's voice sounded again,"100,000 yuan."”
"Yes." There was no doubt in the young man's voice because this was indeed a very normal thing that happened every year. In order to poach the top scorer students, the 'bonus' of 50,000 or 100,000 was really a piece of cake. If these top scorers were all in No.1 Middle School, then No.1 Middle School's reputation would soar even more. Even the top scorer of the middle school examination was in No.1 Middle School, so was there any need to worry about not having students? Moreover, nurturing these talents would also bring about great returns in the future. Moreover, the school's achievements could be considered a major stroke in the principal's political career.
Ziqing had been very happy these few days. First, the city rewarded the top scorer with a 50,000 yuan bonus. Then, the city's No.1 Middle School gave a 100,000 yuan bonus to poach people. Both parties signed an agreement. The content of the agreement was that Ai Ziqing was studying at the city's number one high school. During her time at school, Ai Ziqing was obligated to participate in all kinds of competitions, awards, and honors for the school.
To put it bluntly, it was no different from going to school in the past. However, the school required good students to participate in various competitions. He had to participate dutifully. It was just living the life of a good student. It did not matter. Didn't those good students who had been outstanding since they were young also participate in various competitions for the school since they were in primary school and obtain outstanding results and honors?
Looking at her parents 'ecstatic expressions, Zi Qing couldn't help but smile. After the exam results came out that day, her parents went out to make phone calls in ecstasy, telling everyone to treat Ziqing to a banquet to celebrate. After the prize money was paid, her parents agreed to Ziqing's suggestion to go to Suxiang Garden to set up a big table. Ziqing knew that her parents were angry and wanted to take the opportunity to cover up for her uncle and auntie. Otherwise, his parents, who were so simple, would not waste money like this.
Thinking of this, she felt that her parents were really childish. Ziqing wanted to laugh, but she also wanted to cry…Her parents had worked hard all their lives, but they had been wronged all their lives…
But it didn't matter. With her, his parents could finally hold their heads high and live a comfortable life in the future. However, what was more comfortable than being together as a family?
Ziqing saved the 50,000 yuan reward from the city. There would always be a place where she could use the money in the future. The remaining 100,000 yuan was saved by Ziqing's parents, saying that it was for Ziqing to go to university in the future. Her parents 'painstaking efforts made Ziqing more determined to work hard.
