Chapter 654: Chapter 651: Boiling Again

Sanni heard this and responded with an indifferent "hmm".

She was happy that Guibao was going to high school in the Capital, but also felt a bit desolate.

She had been trying to earn money to support Guibao, yet she was not as good a student as him!

But Guibao was like a little fairy from the heavens, of course, she was better than her!

The others were genuinely happy for Guibao, even Erni was not feeling envious anymore.

Because the gap between the two of them was just too wide, she herself couldn’t even get into the top school in the county.

She said a little awkwardly, "Guibao, you really are amazing."

Having opposed Guibao for so long and suddenly saying such things, she felt somewhat uncomfortable.

"Of course!" Helian Qiao had never considered her as a rival.

After dinner, the entire Chen Family happily escorted Helian Qiao and Gu Tingyun towards the commune dam.

On the way, they encountered villagers heading to the commune dam. Seeing the Chen family, everyone’s faces held looks of admiration.

The Chen children were the ones who had been admitted to high school the most in the village!

"Guibao, Tingyun, you guys are truly amazing!"

The people of the commune, who had watched the two children grow up, wore kind smiles and gave them thumbs up.

Also, the excellent scores achieved by Tingyun and Guibao had brought great honor and prestige to the commune!

If this had been the old times, they would have set off several strings of firecrackers at the entrance to the village!

The stage was draped with red silk ribbons, it looked like a major event!

Zhao Mancao sat behind a table, lifted his hand and tapped the microphone: "Hello~ hello~"

After clearing his throat to test the sound, his voice echoed off a speaker mounted on a nearby post.

Zhao Mancao began by giving his usual speech, a speech that everyone in the commune could recite from memory.

Every time the school term ended, the commune would convene a large meeting to award cash prizes to the top three students in school. And each time, the speech of Comrade Zhao was almost the same.

"I believe that what I’m about to say is something everyone already knows. Gu Family’s Gu Tingyun and Chen Family’s Chen Jiao took the first and second spots in the county-wide middle-school exams. In particular, Gu Tingyun graduated with full marks in all subjects, bringing great honor to our commune. Let’s applaud and congratulate them!" Zhao Mancao spoke with great enthusiasm and was the first to applaud.

The commune’s honor contributed to his prestige as the commune’s party secretary!

People below the stage also clapped and cheered, immediately, applause thundered.

This was a great accomplishment for their entire commune!

The Chen family members held their heads up high, feeling a tremendous sense of pride!

Helian Qiao lifted her chin, a face of overjoyed pride, and Gu Tingyun remaining as calm and composed as usual.

Ma Xiulian was grinning from ear to ear. Although Guibao consistently achieved top marks in every school term and received commendation, this time it was different.

This time it wasn’t just at the school level!

It was county-wide second place!

Chen Jianjun was equally proud: This was his precious daughter!

Lu Xiaofen, the homeroom teacher, had moist eyes. She was sincerely proud of the two students.

"Therefore! The school and the commune have decided to award each of them a hundred yuan scholarship! The town will also reward Gu Tingyun with two hundred yuan, and Chen Jiao with one hundred yuan as an encouragement!" Zhao Mancao announced loudly.

As his voice fell, the people of the commune were stunned, and the place quieted down for a moment.

How...how much?!!

The next second, it boiled again.

"My goodness, did Party Secretary just say how much? The total amount for the two children would be seven hundred yuan! Seven hundred yuan! That’s more than my entire family earns after two hard years of work!"
