Chapter 93 The Consequences of the Farce

Gu Yin went back to the classroom, moved her things back to her dormitory, and then went up to the second floor of the teachers' building to ask the teacher for her summer homework. The door was open, and just as Gu Yin was about to knock to let the teacher know she had arrived, she heard the teachers talking inside.

"I was just about to hand in the report to the principal's office when I saw the principal inside throwing a tantrum, saying that her husband's bicycle tires had been deflated and that someone had chained her car to a nearby tree!"

"Wow, that's terrible! Do you know who did it?"

"I heard but I don't know, nobody saw it."

"It must have been a student. When I first came here, I didn't know any better and interfered with everything. My bicycle ended up with only a basket! Later, I stopped interfering, and my new bicycle is perfectly fine!"

"Those students wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them hooligans! Only the students in the experimental class are real students!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yin turned back and stood on the stairs for about five minutes before forcefully stepping up the stairs.

The clattering sound of sandals on the floor in summer is enough to alert everyone in the house that someone has arrived.

Sure enough, Gu Yin didn't even need to knock; all the teachers looked over.

Gu Yin flashed a standard good student smile: "Report!"

"Come in! Here to pick up your summer homework?"

The person who answered was the Chinese teacher of my second-year experimental class, who was also my homeroom teacher and had previously supervised my exams in the director's office.

Gu Yin nodded: "Yes, Teacher Wang asked me to get it from you."

The teacher handed her the test paper and another sheet of paper: "These all need to be completed. You also need to complete the questions on this sheet. Just hand them to your ninth-grade homeroom teacher when school starts, and she will give them to me."

Gu Yin nodded, took the things, nodded to the other teachers in the office, and left without lingering.

When she got home and saw that both her granddaughters had won first place, the old lady couldn't stop smiling: "Good, good, good! You're both good children! What would you like to eat? Grandma will make it for you!"

Gu Hua thought for a moment and said, "I want to eat cold pig's ear salad! Add more chili and cilantro!"

Speaking of cold pig's ear salad, Gu Yin thought of shredded chicken: "I want to eat spicy shredded chicken, with lots of chili and cilantro!"

Gu Shu and Gu Le both liked these two dishes, so they didn't order any more.

“We don’t have any pig ears at home. Ah Yin, call your mom and ask her to buy three when she comes back tonight! We can eat our fill! I’m going to kill the chicken now. After it’s cooked, I can put it in the well to cool it down! It will taste better when we eat it tonight!” After the old lady finished speaking, she got up and walked towards the chicken coop. Gu Shu followed her up, and then the two of them each carried out a chicken.

Killing a chicken, boiling water to scald it, and plucking its feathers—several people working together completed the task in no time.

The old lady evenly coated the two chickens with the seasoning and put them inside their bellies. Then she placed them in a clean stainless steel container and hung it in the well to keep them chilled.

After cooking dinner, Li Mengxin and the others returned. After the pig ears were braised, they mixed them with the previously prepared sauce, and the fragrant, spicy, and flavorful cold pig ear salad was ready.

The old lady took two chickens out and put them in the pot, along with the broth from the bowl. After cooking for about ten minutes, she took them out, shredded the meat into strips, and poured the prepared broth over them. The delicious and chewy hand-shredded chicken was ready.

Li Xiang and Li Mengxin quickly made cucumber salad and fried peanuts, which were perfect snacks for the men in the family to enjoy with their drinks!

"Hey, the food tonight is great! I just happened to bring back some cold beef salad and braised duck heads! We can have a drink!" Gu Qingming smiled as he entered the house and saw the dishes on the table.

Gu Shu brought out the bowls and chopsticks and looked at the two people who came in. She sighed, "If you had come in any later, I definitely wouldn't have been able to tell! It's so dark! Don't people wear hats at the construction site?"

The construction schedule over there is quite tight, and the two brothers, Gu Qingming and Gu Qingming, haven't been back for the past week. They're only coming back tonight because their grandfather said that both of their daughters got first place in their exams, so they wanted to come back for a celebratory meal! That's why the two of them bought groceries and rushed back.

"The sun is so bright it's making you dizzy! It's incredibly hot! Wearing a hat doesn't help! We've stocked up on plenty of ice, mung bean porridge, and herbal medicine for heatstroke at the construction site lately, just in case they get heatstroke! Your uncle and I are so worried!" The construction period is fixed; once you've taken the money, you have to work as long as it doesn't rain. Even if they try to persuade you, you won't listen. You have other projects to work on, and once you finish this one, you have to rush to the next one!

The old lady sighed, "I'll buy more watermelons and pears when I go over! Please be careful!"

"Mom, don't worry, we know. We've even hired a doctor from the clinic to be stationed there, just in case!" Gu Qinglang said with a smile as he came in after washing his hands.

Hearing him say that, everyone felt relieved.

The food was delicious tonight, and everyone ate to their heart's content. After dinner, everyone sat in the courtyard chatting.

Gu Shu glanced at the popsicle that Gu Le had bought and smiled, "Ayin and Ahua will be in the same class later. Won't Ahua be nervous?"

Gu Hua rolled her eyes: "Why would I be nervous? I'm really looking forward to it! We'll sit together later! We can learn from each other and keep each other in check. I even saw Jiang Gao waving at me!"

"What if Ayin gets first place? Would you be unhappy?" Gu Qingming laughed and teased.

Gu Hua shook her head: "I'm unhappy because my grades dropped, and A Yin got first place. If she got first place and I got second, but my scores kept improving, I would be ecstatic! A Yin is amazing! A Yin, come sit with me later!"

Gu Yin didn't mind and nodded: "Sure!"

The old lady tapped Gu Shu: "What about you? You've been resting for so long, how much have you read?"

Gu Le raised his hand: "He didn't watch much. During the day, he kept dragging me to the river to catch snails and fish, and at night he was playing on his phone and reading novels! Grandma, hit him! He's disobedient!"

Gu Shu quickly stood up and ran back into the house: "I was wrong! I'll only play for a week! I'll hand over my phone starting tomorrow!" After saying that, she closed the door and hid in the room to quickly read the remaining chapters of the novel, hoping to see it finished tonight!
