The total exam time is ninety-five minutes?
Wang Zhaozhao was very surprised. She thought it would take at most an hour, but she didn't expect that she would hand in the paper only 25 minutes early.
I went to the bathroom, washed my hands and cup, drank some water in the bathroom, and took another cup away.
"Niece..." When she reached the school gate, she saw Wang Sibing waving at her from outside the gate.
She ran over, "Principal, Fourth Uncle, have you been waiting here?"
Ninety-five minutes of waiting is a long time.
"How was it? Was the exam difficult?" Wang Sibing asked what Principal Liu wanted to ask.
"Well... anyway, I finished all the questions." If she were at home, she would definitely say it was okay and not difficult, but outside, she still had to keep a low profile, especially in front of the principal.
"That's good, hehe." Wang Sibing felt that he had done all the questions, which meant there was nothing he didn't know, and he would definitely get full marks.
But Principal Liu certainly wouldn't think so, or he wouldn't dare to think so.
Song Huaimin's students had not come out yet. Principal Liu greeted him and left with Wang Sibing and Wang Zhaozhao.
Instead of going back to the guesthouse to check out directly, he said he would invite them to dinner at a state-owned restaurant.
Wang Sibing declined, thinking it was unnecessary. It was only ten o'clock and he could still make it home for dinner.
Principal Liu insisted and said that it was still early and took them somewhere.
Wang Sibing couldn't refuse any longer. Honestly, he was willing to take Wang Zhaozhao to the state-owned restaurant for dinner before returning, but Principal Liu was...
It’s not that he is stingy, he also wants to treat Principal Liu to a meal.
The problem is that their family is a poor peasant. When Wang Zhaozhao entered school last year, he wanted to skip a grade in order to save tuition.
Spending a few dollars on a meal at a state-owned restaurant is unacceptable.
What was Principal Liu thinking? Either he had some wrong thoughts, or he felt burdened by the meal, thinking that he was just gnawing at their bones.
"Principal, where is this...?" Wang Zhaozhao looked at the words 'waste recycling station' and an idea came to him.
In my previous life, when I read novels, there were many stories about times when I went to a scrap recycling station to look for books, or on Taobao, and sometimes I found precious ancient books with gold bars inside.
"When you go in later, don't call me Principal." Principal Liu reminded Wang Zhaozhao and Wang Sibing.
Wang Zhaozhao nodded repeatedly, and Wang Sibing didn't understand why, so he nodded too.
After entering, Principal Liu greeted the people inside in a familiar manner, and it was obvious that he came here often.
The people inside had a lukewarm attitude, which Principal Liu was used to, so he took them to look through the "garbage".
"Don't show it too much if you find something you like. Take it out together later. The staff will watch and charge some money..." Principal Liu whispered to Wang Sibing and Wang Zhaozhao.
Wang Zhaozhao and Wang Sibing had the same starry eyes, which almost stunned Principal Liu.
It was normal for Wang Zhaozhao to have that expression, but Wang Sibing... was really a very simple and honest farmer.
If Wang Zhaozhao knew what Principal Liu thought of Wang Sibing, he would definitely laugh to death.
Her fourth uncle wasn't a wicked person, but was he honest and kind? He was far from that.
Of course Wang Zhaozhao wanted to find a book, but she didn't have a specific goal, so she just flipped through the books randomly. In the end, she picked up a few books, including an English-Chinese dictionary that was in tatters, with many pages missing from the front and back, and all four corners were severely worn.
She was very satisfied with the harvest, and when she saw what Wang Sibing picked, she opened her mouth wide.
His fourth uncle didn't want anything else but a huge pile of used newspapers.
Principal Liu was looking for books and a painting tube, and I don’t know if it contained famous paintings.
In the end, Principal Liu spent one dollar, while Wang Zhaozhao and Wang Sibing spent only eighty cents in total.
Waste newspapers were weighed, four cents per pound. There were thirteen pounds, so that was fifty cents. Wang Zhaozhao's English-Chinese dictionary was really too worn out, and there were a few old books, so they were all worth thirty cents.
Made a profit!
Wang Zhaozhao and Wang Sibing thought happily at the same time.
The staff at the waste recycling station were always indifferent. Wang Sibing asked them for some rope, and they gave it to him. An old man even helped him to divide the newspapers into two bundles.
"Thank you, sir." Wang Zhaozhao thanked him sweetly.
When the old man saw her smiling face, he also smiled and turned away.
Principal Liu then took them to the recycling station, where there was a rusty faucet. They washed their hands and faces and cleaned up a little.
He is different from Song Huaimin. If conditions permit, he will try his best to clean up and look as decent as possible.
I first went back to the guesthouse, put my things down, and when I got to the state-owned restaurant, it was almost time for dinner and it was already 70% full.
They found an empty seat and Principal Liu went to order the food. He didn't ask Wang Zhaozhao and Wang Sibing what they wanted to eat, for fear of embarrassing the uncle and nephew, so he just asked them to order whatever was cheaper.
Braised pork is a must-order. We also ordered a braised fish, a cumin beef, and a seaweed egg drop soup.
Wang Zhaozhao and Wang Sibing were really embarrassed. This meal would probably cost Principal Liu a month's salary.
Even though Wang Sibing now has a way to make some money, beef is still expensive for him.
"Eat quickly, don't feel any pressure. I've prepared a budget for you all, so I won't go over the limit. I didn't even ask you what you wanted to eat. I just ordered what I wanted."
Principal Liu picked up a piece of beef and hurriedly called Wang Zhaozhao and the others to eat. Then he stuffed the meat into his mouth and said with satisfaction, "Delicious."
Wang Zhaozhao and Wang Sibing smiled, picked up their chopsticks and started eating.
We've come this far, the food's on the table, why be so fussy? Just eat it.
The three of them talked while eating, mainly Principal Liu talking, Wang Sibing chatting along, and Wang Zhaozhao listening with his ears pricked up, and only answered when his name was called.
The meal was very satisfying and filling.
Principal Liu, who already knew the exam situation of Wang Zhaozhao and others, was full of emotion on the way back to the guesthouse, and also vaguely mentioned that there were rumors of resuming the college entrance examination.
"Is the principal an old educated youth?" Wang Zhaozhao suddenly asked Principal Liu curiously.
In fact, she also wanted to ask if Principal Liu would participate if the college entrance examination was resumed?
"I... don't count. My ancestral home is in Daling Commune. During the turmoil back then, my family found a way to get me back."
Wang Zhaozhao understood.
If I have the ability to get it back, then I should have the ability to get it back, but I haven't been able to get it back yet...
It seems that their principal is a person with a lot of stories.
"Student Wang Zhaozhao, what plans do you have for your future?" Principal Liu asked her a question in return.
Well.
Wang Zhaozhao pursed his lips. "My plan for the next two years is to start fifth grade next semester. I've already decided on junior high school, and I want to go to the county middle school."
Bang!
Wang Sibing was so shocked that he was only looking at Wang Zhaozhao and didn't pay attention to the road, and bumped into a telephone pole.
