The dragon tribe's most beloved little princess found herself in an era of scarcity, lacking clothes and food. Fortunately, she had a grandmother who doted on her as if she were the apple of he...
Chapter 467 The best at everything
He now particularly likes this little genius, Guaibao, and feels that he might actually be able to raise someone who will be very successful and contribute to the Party and the country.
The elderly couple and Chen Jianjun were overjoyed to hear this, and immediately praised him with beaming smiles: "My dear child is so great! You got two perfect scores, so smart and amazing!"
If we weren't eating, I would definitely hug my baby and give him a few kisses.
Although my child usually gets 100% on tests and exams, the significance of the final exam is always different.
Helian Jiao held her chin high, proud and confident. She was the best at everything!
Li Zhiqing said with a smile, "I still need to report the results to other parents. You guys continue eating."
He could understand the Chen family's feelings. As soon as the exam ended, he took out Guaibao and Gu Tingyun's test papers and started grading them. When he found that they were all correct, he felt both excited and gratified.
"Teacher Li, please take care. Thank you for making this trip."
After seeing the child to the gate of the courtyard, Ma Xiulian smiled so much that her eye wrinkles appeared: "My sweet baby, what do you want to eat tonight? Grandma will make it for you!"
Chen Jianjun said generously, "Whatever my sweetheart wants, Dad will buy it for you!"
He wanted to give his little daughter the best of everything in the world.
Chen Dazhu was overjoyed. His precious baby was a gift from God, bringing honor to the Chen family!
Helian Jiao said innocently, "I want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs! There's nothing else I want to buy."
"Okay, okay, Grandma will make sweet and sour pork ribs for my little darling!" Ma Xiulian happily agreed.
They also decided to invite the people from the old house and Gu Tingyun's family over for dinner to celebrate.
Just last week, Guaibao and Lao Si went to the reservoir and brought back a bucket of fish, along with two pheasants that Dabai caught, and some pork that the commune had just distributed. Three meat dishes would be enough.
In the afternoon, when she went to the field with her hoe, she told Zhou Zhaodi, who was working in the same field, about it, so that she wouldn't have to make a special trip.
"Second son's wife, go back and tell everyone that we're coming to the fourth son's house for dinner tonight. At noon, Teacher Li came over and said that our little one got two perfect scores, tying for first place in the grade with the Gu family boy! Let's have a family meal to celebrate for our little one!"
"Our little darling is such a smart genius!" Zhou Zhaodi was overjoyed to hear this. "I'll help with cooking tonight."
They grew up eating the same rice and flour, so why are Da Bao and Er Bao, those two rascals, only able to barely pass the test?
Ma Xiulian didn't deliberately lower her voice, and the others in the field heard her and praised her as well.
"Aunt Chen! You are so lucky to have such a smart and studious granddaughter."
"That's right, my grandson said that Li Zhiqing always praised my son for being smart in class!"
"If only my brat were half as smart as my sweetheart!"
...
Some felt a mix of sourness and disdain, like Old Mrs. Song, who kept moving her hands and muttered, "What use is a little girl, no matter how well she studies, if she can't carry on the family line!"
But she dared not speak loudly, for fear of offending Ma Xiulian, who doted on her granddaughter like the apple of her eye.
However, she secretly envied Ma Xiulian for having such a successful son as Chen Jianjun, who made a lot of money as a factory worker.
Why doesn't she have a son who can work as a factory worker and get a government-subsidized food ration?

In the afternoon, the Chen family arrived. As soon as they reached the door, they stopped and looked around the house with shining eyes.
