A Little Village Girl in the 70s Relies on Studying to Bring Glory to the Country

Wang Zhaozhao originally had parents. One day, her mother became her paternal aunt, and her father married a stepmother. Later, she gained two more younger sisters: one born to her paternal aunt, a...

Chapter 261 I am just a poor student

The topic of the day in Hebian Village has all been about Wang Dahai's family. In addition to the shadow play and the small silver lock given by Wang Zhaozhao, there is also the big gift from the Qiao family.

The Qiao family’s big gift was only revealed the next day.

I heard that the gift money was 60 yuan, and each child was given a separate gift of 8.88 yuan.

This is only from Qiao Li's parents. There are also uncles and aunts, especially Qiao Li's uncle's family, who couldn't come and asked us to bring gifts of 200 yuan.

"Qiao Li is so lucky! She can earn hundreds of dollars just by giving birth to a baby and hosting a banquet."

"Look at what you're saying. People don't give birth to children just to make money from banquets."

"That's true. But in this case, it's only right for Wang Sibing to invite people to perform shadow puppetry. It's one thing to have a good time, but we also have to show it to my mother-in-law's family and let them know that your daughter is highly valued after marrying into our family."

"That's one aspect. On the other hand, I think that little silver locket that Zhao girl bought is a good one. It also saves face. It saves face for the Wang family and also for the girl's family in front of their relatives."

“…”

Everyone was talking at once, and a very simple matter was given a lot of meaning by them.

In the end, all the criticism was directed at Chen Laoliu.

It turned out that he was jealous of Wang Sibing, so he picked a fight and ended up being humiliated.

Wang Zhaozhao didn't go to the village, but he knew a little about these things, and Wang Baojia would tell him when he got home.

During this period, something happened in their family, but they kept it secret and didn't leak out, so no one in the village knew about it.

Wang Erbing also went to repair the canal.

The public statement was that Wang Jingjing was on summer vacation and could help Zhang Xiu'e with some small jobs. He took this time to earn some work points and also earn tuition fees.

In fact, he had an argument with Zhang Xiu'e and they almost got into a fight.

Zhang Xiu'e was so amazing that she actually went crazy and went to complain to Qiao Li, saying that Wang Zhaozhao was young and ignorant, and so on.

What she meant was that Qiao Li coaxed Wang Zhaozhao into spending money in vain. If Wang Erbing had not passed away quickly, she might have asked Qiao Li to return the small silver lock to her.

Wang Erbing dragged the person back and had a big quarrel with her behind closed door. Finally, Zhang Xiu'e ran out, found Wang Dahai and Xie Ailian, and said that Wang Erbing had beaten her.

Wang Dahai asked Wang Erbing, and Wang Erbing said that he did not hit her. At most, he pulled her back and pushed her a little when he let go.

Zhang Xiu'e was determined to make a big fuss, but before she could go back to Old Zhang's house to get help, Wang Erbing got up before dawn, packed his bag, and went to repair the canal.

Now Zhang Xiu'e panicked and hugged him and cried, asking him not to suffer that hardship.

The matter of going back to her mother's house to ask people to beat Wang Erbing was naturally over, but Wang Erbing was determined and went to repair the canal.

That day, Wang Zhaozhao was explaining a problem to Wang Xingwen and Wang Weiguo when Chen Changlin suddenly came to the door.

Xie Ailian held little Dudu and greeted him. Wang Zhaozhao went to bring a stool for him to sit on. She was about to pour water, but Chen Changlin stopped her and said, "No need to pour water. I just want to tell you something. I'm leaving soon."

"And me?" Wang Zhaozhao pointed at himself.

"Yes, I just came to inform you that I'm going to the commune tomorrow... I'll ride my bike, so you can come with me."

"Oh, okay."

Wang Zhaozhao scratched her head. She thought that those things had come to nothing or had been completed and she was no longer needed. She didn't expect that they were just about to start now.

After agreeing on a time, Chen Changlin left.

"Why are you going to the commune?" Xie Ailian asked her.

"Ah? Didn't I tell you that?" Wang Zhaozhao asked, bewildered. Seeing Xie Ailian narrow her eyes, she quickly smiled and said, "Regarding the exam, our principal said at the time that the commune would also hang banners and hold meetings to encourage every production team to build a primary school."

"What does that have to do with you? Why are you even asked to attend a meeting at the commune? You're just a little brat, sitting in a meeting with the township head and the cadres from the various production teams. What can you say?"

Xie Ailian expressed her extreme incomprehension and looked Wang Zhaozhao up and down several times, but she still didn't understand.

Wang Zhaozhao: “……!”

"Yes, I'm just a little kid, what can I say? I'll just be a figurehead, cooperating with the commune and encouraging the cadres of the production teams to actively open primary schools. When the time comes, I may even have to go to the various production teams to promote and encourage everyone to send their children to school."

“…”

Xie Ailian couldn't help but look Wang Zhaozhao up and down again.

Wang Zhaozhao's mouth twitched. What? Her grandma looked down on her and thought she was no good?

"No matter what, this is worth doing. To be honest, I am accumulating merit." Humph.

I couldn't control myself and was a little bit arrogant.

Xie Ailian rolled her eyes at her and ignored her completely. She turned around and shouted towards the room where the fourth soldier and the others were staying, "Xiao Qiao, Xiao Qiao..."

"Grandma, why are you calling me Fourth Aunt? I'm reviewing." Wang Zhaozhao pulled her and said in a low voice.

Since they learned that Qiao Li had an opportunity to take the exam to become a substitute teacher in the county primary school, the Qiao family found a way to get her some information and teaching materials.

In addition to reviewing knowledge every day, Qiao Li also familiarizes herself with the textbooks and learns how to recite and teach.

This means going to the county primary school, and it was obtained because of Wang Zhaozhao's good grades, so Qiao Li attached great importance to it. The opportunity is an opportunity, but she has to match it with her strength, including gaining a firm foothold in the future.

"Mom, you called me?" Qiao Ze was called out again.

"The team leader just came and asked Zhao to go with him to the commune meeting tomorrow. Can you show her what to wear tomorrow?"

"Ah? Okay."

"Ah? No thanks."

After hearing Xie Ailian's words, Qiao Li and Wang Zhaozhao said at the same time.

Xie Ailian glared at Wang Zhaozhao. "Why not? After all, you're in a meeting with commune cadres, shouldn't you be more careful?!"

"I wear clean clothes."

"Stop talking nonsense! Also, is one of the straps on your plastic sandals broken? It's too late to go to town and buy new ones now. Wait until your grandfather gets home from work and have him heat up some hot tongs so he can iron them for you."

"……oh."

Wang Zhaozhao didn't object to this. One of the straps of her sandals was broken, and it really needed to be branded, otherwise it would be difficult to walk in.

But, her grandma just said that if there was still time, she would like to go to town to buy her new sandals?

Wang Zhaozhao chuckled.

Qiao Li asked Xie Ailian again, and after finding out the whole story, she quickly went to prepare clothes for Wang Zhaozhao to wear tomorrow.

Wang Zhaozhao followed behind and shouted, "Fourth Aunt, there's no need. Really, I'm just a poor student..."

"A poor student can't dress like a beggar." Xie Ailian interrupted her slowly.

Well……

Wang Zhaozhao looked down at herself. How could she be dressed like a beggar?

Her clothes were a little worn from being washed, with a torn pocket and a patch, and one corner of the clothes was ripped and had some frays.

"I'm at home and I deliberately picked old clothes to wear..." He tried to save face.

"hehe."
