In a blink of an eye, it was the day to go to the city to receive the award. The school made a special application and borrowed a bus. Since there were family members traveling with us, the minibus could not accommodate them, so the vice-principal of logistics decided to take the bus.
Wang Zhaozhao was wearing a new white shirt and suspender skirt today, a pair of white socks and small leather shoes, and her hair was tied in two small braids and a pair of bows.
Very beautiful.
"Wow... Zhaozhao, Yanni, you are wearing the same clothes and have the same hair style today, you look so good." When they gathered at the school playground, Chu Honghua praised with surprise and envy.
"Really? Thank you." Xu Yanni smiled.
He looked at himself with satisfaction, then at Wang Zhaozhao.
Qiao Li made the clothes and skirt together, and her mother bought them the same pair of leather shoes after she told her parents about them.
Yesterday afternoon, they agreed to braid their hair in the same way today.
Perfect sister outfits.
At eight o'clock, everyone was there and bus No. 6 took them to Lianshan No. 2 Middle School.
The competition was held at the No. 2 Middle School in the city, and the awards ceremony was also held there.
Today, banners, big red flowers, and small colorful flags were hung at the gate of the No. 2 Middle School in the city. The location was not in the auditorium, but directly on the playground.
The stage in the playground was the same, with banners, ribbons, and flowers of various colors cut out of colored paper.
I don’t want to say whether it looks good or not, but it’s quite festive and has that flavor.
There are many chairs placed under the stage, with a separate area in the middle, which is then divided into family area, student area and social area.
Wang Zhaozhao and the others’ location was easy to find, it was the one that belonged to the single pig.
Everyone came in one after another and the scene was very lively.
Students chatter away, parents can easily chat with each other, and principals and teachers from different schools will get to know each other and say hello.
"Classmate Wang Zhaozhao, classmate Xu Yanni, we meet again." A special smoky voice appeared. Wang Zhaozhao and Xu Yanni turned their heads and saw a soft smiling face.
He sits next to Song Jiangli, so he is the third one.
"Hello, classmate Chen Pei."
Wang Zhaozhao and Xu Yanni responded and introduced Song Jiangli who was sandwiched between them.
I didn’t expect that they actually knew each other and were cousins.
There were eleven seats, six of which were occupied by Zhushan County Middle School, two by the No. 3 City Middle School where Chen Pei was studying, and one was from the No. 2 City Middle School. Once the other two arrived, the seats were full.
Among these eleven people, there are seven girls and four boys.
Seven girls...the top five plus the special prize, and one is seventh.
Six, eight, nine and ten are boys.
"Many people might say that girls excel in essay competitions, which is perfectly normal. The problem is, in math competitions, there are fewer girls, but the top spot is also held by a girl."
While Wang Zhaozhao and the others were having a friendly conversation and getting to know each other, the person looking at their backs and heads kept his mouth busy.
"Honestly, looking at the back of the head, you really can't tell anything."
"Haha, do you think there's a phrase like 'I'm a top student' written on the back of his head?"
"I arrived early and saw their faces. I can only say that their looks are directly proportional to their IQ."
"Really? I won't say anything about the female classmates, but don't those male classmates look ugly?"
“…”
Eleven people were sitting there, and the students from No. 2 Middle School were sitting in the back. Only their backs and the back of their heads could be seen. Some people also wanted to see what was going on.
At around nine o'clock, the audience was already full, and people from the organizing committee and relevant departments had also arrived.
But the staff seemed to be still busy, and someone carried a large black box onto the stage.
Wang Zhaozhao raised his eyebrows secretly. Oh my, what a generous move, they even got some speakers.
Does that mean there will be a microphone?
"It's worthy of being a middle school in the city. It's even richer than our school." Xu Yanni saw the speakers and turned her head to whisper in Wang Zhaozhao's ear.
Wang Zhaozhao nodded, but said, "I think our school will definitely be able to equip it before the end-of-semester conference."
Students can get awards in every competition, and the school also gets some.
Just like their Daling Commune Primary School, in the past, even the summer homework was the teacher giving out questions, writing them on the blackboard and asking students to copy them back and do them. Later, it became a summer homework booklet, which was a resource reward.
I have to say that the microphone and sound equipment are very bad, like thunder, which really hurts my ears.
What’s even more terrifying is that the organizing committee of the competition actually set up a segment where the winners had to go on stage one by one and read their own essays.
It’s simply…
A disaster for the ears, which lasted two and a half hours.
After the show, Wang Zhaozhao and the others took a long time to move.
The first row is too close to the speakers.
When Xu Yanni spoke, Wang Zhaozhao felt as if his ears were filled with cotton and he could not hear clearly.
She puffed out her cheeks several times before she recovered a little. She scratched her ears with her hands and smiled bitterly.
At this moment, the staff actually set up a buffet table on the side.
It was a small banquet specially held for these relevant personnel.
"Wow, the school leaders of No. 2 Middle School in the city are so capable." Wang Zhaozhao first went to get a glass of juice and expressed his sincere admiration.
Xu Yanni grinned, "The leaders of No. 1 Middle School in the city will definitely not accept it."
Chen Pei on the side shook his head, "Not necessarily."
Wang Zhaozhao and Xu Yanni's eyes lit up. What did you mean?
Chen Pei smiled mysteriously and said leisurely, "Because there are no students from No. 1 Middle School in the top ten of this essay competition, their school may not have anyone here today."
Well……
That makes so much sense!
Wang Zhaozhao and Xu Yanni gave a thumbs up at the same time.
They looked at each other and smiled secretly.
For students like them, communication and entertainment at this small banquet are unnecessary; eating is the real thing.
The most important thing is that the meals prepared by No. 2 Middle School are really good.
There is a fried pork chop dish, which is particularly delicious.
There are also seafood, big crabs, oysters, prawns... There is not much quantity, first come first served, until they are all gone, and each person can only have one of each item.
Oh, Wang Zhaozhao and the others were given special care and were packed in separate paper boxes, with three of each kind for each person.
Looks like an extra bonus, a seafood gift box?
"Take it back?" Xu Yanni asked Wang Zhaozhao.
Wang Zhaozhao nodded, "Okay, I'll give it to my grandma and the others later."
Xu Yanni looked over and saw that Qin Honghua was already giving it to her family.
I looked around and it seemed like everyone else was at home...
"I don't want to take it back. Here, you can take it together."
"I don't want it. It would be great if you could take it back and eat it with your parents."
Hearing this, Xu Yanni curled her lips and muttered softly, "They are so busy, eating crabs will take a lot of time..."
Wang Zhaozhao bumped her with his shoulder and said, "Stop saying one thing and thinking another."
Ugh! Her awkward outburst last time didn't seem to have any real effect.
She was a little self-righteous, thinking that Xu's father and mother would come this time.
