Chapter 235 Riddle



Chikuyama County Cannery

Wang Sibing found their team leader and asked for an hour's leave.

"Why are you asking for leave again?" The team leader didn't seem unhappy, but he did ask for a reason. "You're still a temporary employee, not a regular employee. It's inappropriate to ask for too much leave."

He is just a team leader, and there is a director above him. The factory manager above the director doesn't care about these things, but there are also clerks and so on, some of whom are very nosy.

"Didn't my niece go to the city to participate in a recitation competition? She didn't come back yesterday. Her classmates invited her to the zoo. They will take a bus to the bus station later, and I will go to pick her up." Wang Sibing explained.

"Oh, yes! You took two days off to accompany your niece to participate in a competition in the city. How did it turn out?" The team leader remembered this and asked casually.

Upon hearing this, Wang Sibing became excited.

He chuckled and waved his hand nonchalantly, "That girl... our Wang family has a gifted brain for studying for eighteen generations. She always takes first place in exams and competitions, haha, haha."

Although the team leader couldn't stand his arrogant look, he was quite happy when he heard that the kid was smart and could read.

"Oh, that's great. Your old man is this..." The team leader gave a thumbs up.

As soon as I heard his words, I knew that Wang Sibing often boasted about his niece, and even his father.

"Your niece's academic acumen must be nurtured. She should go to university and make greater contributions to the country and society. The hope of our country lies in the hands of the new generation."

"Hehe, regardless of anything else, I'll sell everything I have to make sure she goes to school. Team leader, what you just said, as my eldest niece would say, is 'A strong youth means a strong country.'"

"Yes, yes, yes! As expected of our niece, what she said is different. A strong youth means a strong country. Not bad, not bad, really not bad."

The team leader excitedly patted Wang Sibing's shoulders repeatedly, and his voice rose several degrees.

Just then the warehouse manager came over and seeing how excited he was, he asked them what they were talking about.

The team leader kept talking excitedly, exaggerating Wang Sibing and his family in every way.

Wang Sibing was listening on the side and felt ashamed of himself. Their team leader was too capable.

"Comrade Wang Sibing, is your eldest niece's surname Wang?" After hearing the team leader's words, the director seemed a little excited and actually asked Wang Sibing such a question.

Wang Sibing: “……!”

"Yes, my eldest niece's surname is Wang." He couldn't embarrass his leader, so he had to answer seriously.

In fact, the director realized it after he finished speaking, and felt a little embarrassed.

"Haha, it's like this. My wife is the principal of the county junior high school. A few days ago, I heard her and the academic dean talk about a student named Wang Zhaozhao several times..."

"Director, my eldest niece is called Wang Zhaozhao."

"Look! Isn't this right?"

Your director is not stupid. I am asking whether your eldest niece has the same surname as you.

The director was a little excited.

But then he realized what was going on. He said his wife was the principal of the county junior high school and was paying attention to your niece. Didn't you understand? Or was he just playing dumb?

At this point, anyone who isn't a fool should strike while the snake is still alive, right?!

The team leader was also suspicious. He glanced at Wang Sibing and asked in surprise, "Xiao Wang, didn't you say that our eldest niece only started school two years ago? She skipped to third grade and is now in the second semester of fourth grade, right? She's already been noticed by the county junior high school so early?"

Wang Sibing forced a laugh. "I skipped a grade in the second half of last year and am now in fifth grade. I'm going to take the joint entrance exam for junior high school soon."

"Oh my goodness, you can graduate from elementary school in just two years?" The team leader's surprise was obviously from the heart, not just a performance.

The director looked at Wang Sibing, his eyebrows twitching, remembering that the team leader had just said he wanted leave because Wang Zhaozhao was going to the city to participate in a recitation competition...

"Xiao Wang, aren't you going to pick someone up? After picking them up, you have to send them back to the village, right? Go early."

"Okay, thank you, Director."

Wang Sibing thanked them gratefully, smiled at the director and team leader, and went to pack up and get ready to go off work.

After he left, the director sighed, "Comrade Xiao Wang is a good guy. He keeps his composure."

The team leader's eyebrows jumped.

"Indeed, he works efficiently, has a sharp mind, and is eloquent." He was telling the truth.

What he didn't say was that his only shortcoming was that he had not been educated and did not know many words, but he was quite studious.

After listening to the team leader, the director said nothing, just patted him on the shoulder and left.

The team leader seemed confused but also seemed to understand something.

The director was a dozen years older than him. He had experienced invasion, war, and the beginning of a new society, and then he had experienced famine and these eleven years...

Like them, they not only hope that the country and nation will become more and more prosperous, but also have a special sense of mission.

The resumption of the college entrance examination at the end of last year was a new ray of hope for the director's wife, a junior high school principal.

hiss……

It seems like the director and Wang Sibing were talking about some kind of riddle just now?

It's indeed a riddle.

The director threw out the introduction, but the topic was given by Wang Sibing.

The team leader had not thought of that level yet, but Wang Sibing knew that the director had thought of it.

That’s great. He happily went to pick up his eldest niece and could also go home to see his wife. Hehe, that’s great.

"Fourth Uncle, did anything good happen?" After arriving at the commune and parting ways with Principal Liu and the others, Wang Zhaozhao immediately asked Wang Sibing.

"Was my performance so obvious?" Wang Sibing asked back.

"Why don't we go to the river and take a picture to see how exaggerated your grin is." It's almost stretched behind your ears, okay?

Wang Zhaozhao could only think of one possibility, "Could it be that you were officially hired early?"

"Not yet, but it won't be long before I'm officially hired." Wang Sibing chuckled, "Hey, niece, let me tell you, I'm super lucky today. When I asked for leave..."

He talked a lot.

After hearing this, Wang Zhaozhao was convinced.

"Fourth Uncle, you have such a smart mind. It's just because you haven't been educated. If you had been educated, you would have been great." This was sincere praise.

In the next few days, their Principal Liu should receive another call from the county junior high school leaders. Given their Principal Liu's shrewdness...

hey-hey.

Wang Zhaozhao gave the same chuckle as Wang Sibing.

"I'll go apologize to Principal Liu tomorrow."

"ah?"

Wang Sibing didn't understand what his niece was suddenly up to. "What have you done wrong?"

Wang Zhaozhao: “……!”

He really is her uncle.

"It seems not..." She thought about it. At that time, Principal Liu told her about the recitation competition held by the No. 1 Primary School in the city and didn't really want her to go. Then, she didn't go, but Song Yanni strongly wanted to participate and forced her to go.

Wang Sibing only now realized that there was such a thing.

No wonder his eldest niece had long ago told his mother that she wouldn't be able to get first place this time...

"Bring some canned food to school tomorrow and give it to your deskmate. She's a nice girl, and she's even invited you to the zoo."

"good."

Wang Zhaozhao nodded. As for the zoo...how should he brag about it when he meets Wang Baojia later?
