Chapter 652: Chapter 649: But It’s the Hard Truth

"Your Guibao is really impressive, securing the second place in the entire county! Yesterday, the head of the big team was beating gongs and drums, praising Guibao house by house. It really brings honor to the old Chen Family. It also adds credit to our commune!"

"If I were you, having such a promising granddaughter, I’d definitely be chuckling in my dreams!"

...

For so many years, Helian Qiao and Gu Tingyun consistently excelled and came first in the entire school. They also represent the school in a variety of competitions and were recognized as the little geniuses of the village!

Ma Xiulian answered cheerfully, "Yes, I am indeed delighted! So I plan to buy some meat from the town and celebrate with Guibao."

From yesterday to this moment, her smile hasn’t faded.

And there is no attempt to hide the proud expression on her face. She indeed is proud of her granddaughter!

Others also have to admit, the Guibao of Chen Family is truly remarkable!

In recent years, all the villagers have been sending their children to school, but none are able to surpass Guibao and Gu Tingyun.

By noon, all the folks from the old house had arrived.

Zhao Mei, leading Yuanbao, walked in with a beaming smile and praised, "Tingyun and Guibao secured the first and second place in the county, really impressive!"

Perhaps the birth of a son had made Zhao Mei more cheerful over the years, no longer subservient as she used to be.

As she spoke, she looked at her son affectionately.

Yuanbao just started second grade this year. Even though his performance is average, she is already very contented.

Liu Lanzhi looks at the beautifully mature Guibao, both smart and pretty, she can’t adore her more, "Guibao is awesome!"

"Second Aunt isn’t surprised at all because Guibao and Tingyun have always been the top students." Zhou Zhaodi, who is always sweet-spoken, said.

And she speaks the truth!

Even before the results were out, she firmly believed the two children must have done incredibly well!

Her little niece is such a fortunate person, clever and quick-witted!

Helian Qiao listened and accepted all the compliments, cocked up her little chin, and started feeling proud again.

Aside from the big bad dragon, she still is the most extraordinary one!

Once Ma Xiulian returned from the town by sled, a few daughters-in-law helped take the food into the kitchen and started cooking.

When the folks from the Gu family arrived, the dishes were served gradually.

"Time to eat!" Ma Xiulian called out.

Over the years, as the old Chen Family added more members, they set up three tables but it’s still somewhat crowded. A group of younger kids had to squeeze in at one table.

The Gu family members, Chen Dazhu’s old couple and the fourth family sat at one table, people from the old house sat at another.

During the meal, unlike their childhood days, Gu Tingyun and Helian Qiao didn’t have their plates besides them. But everyone still put the best dishes in front of them.

Gu Tingyun was a bit of a cleanliness freak; as a result, he ate less with this setting. During the meal, he would only eat a few plates placed in front of him and only take from the untouched side. Most of the time, he was helping Helian Qiao with the food.

He never drank soup, nor let Guibao drink it, because everyone’s chopsticks had already been in the soup countless times. It’s something a cleanliness freak can’t tolerate.

But in the beginning, he would scoop a bowl of soup for Guibao and let it cool down, or take from the untouched soup in the pot.

Helian Qiao wasn’t as particular as Gu Tingyun. They were all family and everyone was clean.

Moreover, most of the dishes she ate were picked by Gu Tingyun. Little Princess only needed to focus on eating the food in her bowl.

However, after serving her several mouthfuls of meat with chopsticks, Gu Tingyun would always serve her a mouthful of green vegetables.
