Chapter 83 My Sister is Getting Married
Su Luo's questioning attracted the attention of the whole class.
Everyone looked at her at the same time. When Li Jiayi saw it was Su Luo, she immediately stood up and raised her chin in disbelief, "So what if I said something? You dare to do it, but you are afraid of what others will say? Am I wrong? What's your relationship with that boy in Class 8? How did you get into our Rocket Class?"
The quarrel between the two girls aroused the interest of the classmates. Everyone was there to watch the fun and no one interfered.
Su Luo stared at Li Jiayi coldly and told her solemnly, "The boy in Class 8 is from my hometown. We go to the library every day to study. Please don't look at him with your colored eyes. Slandering and spreading rumors is also illegal.
"Also, I jumped directly into the Rocket Class of No. 1 Middle School from the eighth grade, unlike the rest of you who graduated step by step. You questioned my connections, but in reality, transferring to Weinan does require some connections. Everyone in this world needs certain social connections to survive. Can you say you've never used any of them?"
Li Jiayi did not refute. When she was admitted to No. 1 Middle School in the high school entrance examination, she was a few points short. It was her father who used his connections to get her admitted through the expanded enrollment, but her subsequent admission to the rocket class was the result of her past efforts.
Because of Su Luo's calm speech, everyone realized that Su Luo was not an ordinary student, at least she would not allow herself to be manipulated by others.
She has a lot of ideas, clear thoughts, and is neither humble nor arrogant. There seems to be something shining about her.
Su Luo continued, "Relationships only provide us with shortcuts to get from one point to another, but whether or not we can gain a foothold in the Rocket Class depends on our learning ability and strength! Since you all have doubts about my academic performance, then, Li Jiayi, do you dare to make a bet with me?"
"What are you betting on?" Li Jiayi asked unhappily.
"Let's make a bet on the first quiz of this semester. If my score isn't as good as yours, I'll automatically be demoted to a regular class. But if my score is worse than yours, please shut up and stop talking behind my back. Do you dare?"
Li Jiayi was very proud. "Okay! Then it's a bet!"
Everyone saw the bet between the two and was waiting for the quiz to begin.
Because of this bet, both Su Luo and Li Jiayi worked hard secretly. In order to do better than Su Luo in the exam, Li Jiayi would review until very late every day when she got home.
Originally, her grades ranked around 10th in the whole grade. As long as she worked harder and made progress, Su Luo would not be able to surpass her.
Finally, the first quiz after school started arrived, and everyone gave it their all.
On the third day after the test, the scores finally came out.
Everyone went to the bulletin board to check the school rankings, and Su Luo and Xiao Likun also went to take a look.
"I don't know what the results of this exam will be. I'm a little nervous!" said Xiao Likun.
"Hard work will always be rewarded, believe in yourself." Su Luo encouraged him.
The two came to the bulletin board, where a large group of people were gathered, all looking at the results.
Everyone was talking about it, and some were curious, "Who is that number one? Why haven't I seen this name before?"
"Su Luo is the top student in the grade. I heard she is a transfer student."
"A transfer student? Could he be a repeater from the previous class, here to attack us?"
Everyone was talking at once. When Xiao Likun saw that Su Luo's name was ranked first, he was shocked and said, "Su Luo, you're first? Oh my God! How come your grades are so good?"
It’s nothing that Su Luo got first place in the exam, as she was a top student to begin with.
Xiao Likun looked down and found his name. He was ranked 82nd. For him, this was not just a small improvement, but a big step forward.
"Su Luo, I'm 82, did you see that? I've improved!"
"I saw it. Congratulations." Su Luo expressed her congratulations.
At this time, Li Jiayi and several girls came to check the results together.
The female classmates saw Su Luo and said, "Isn't that Su Luo? She's here to see the results too! Is her name in the top 50?"
"Let's see first!"
A few girls came closer, squeezed forward, and finally saw the score ranking list.
Li Jiayi looked down and found her own name first. Her performance seemed to have declined this time and she ranked 12th.
It doesn't make sense. She studies hard every day, but why doesn't she make any progress and instead falls behind two places?
"Su Luo! Oh my God! Is that Su Luo?"
The girl who came with Li Jiayi screamed.
"Where is she?" Li Jiayi asked curiously.
"The first one, didn't you see it?"
"First? She's first?"
Li Jiayi went back to look at the first place and noticed that it was Su Luo's name. "She's actually number one? How is that possible?"
But that's the truth!
After seeing the results, Li Jiayi felt depressed and remembered the bet she made with Su Luo.
"Forget it, let's go!"
She wanted to pull her classmates away, but Su Luo stopped her, "Li Jiayi! Did you see the test results? What else do you have to say now?"
Li Jiayi blushed. "It's just first place, what's so great about that?"
"Being first isn't that great, but it's enough to beat you. Remember our bet? If I beat you, you'll shut up! Stop gossiping! If you're not convinced, then defeat me with your grades!"
After Su Luo finished speaking, she called Xiao Likun to leave together.
Li Jiayi was so angry that she had no idea what to do. It was her fault that her grades were not as good as others!
It was from this day on that Li Jiayi began to work hard and worked even harder to surpass Su Luo.
A month after school started, November 1st soon arrived. Su Luo went home for the holiday and started preparing for her wedding.
Su Luo's four uncles came back with their families to attend the wedding. The Jiang family was in high spirits and decorated the house with lights and lanterns. Villagers from all over the village came to express their congratulations.
Several aunts took turns helping Su Luo dress up. The eldest aunt Song Lijuan brought Su Luo a new wedding dress. After putting on the wedding dress and makeup, Su Luo looked at herself in the mirror and couldn't recognize herself. Is this still her?
"Our Luoluo is so beautiful!"
"There's no other girl as pretty as her in the whole Jiangjiaba!"
"Luoluo is so lucky. She won't suffer in the Qin family. Her mother-in-law is a good person, and the whole family treats her well."
Many villagers also came to join in the fun and came into the house to see the bride, praising her endlessly.
The elderly couple Yao Guixiang and Jiang Houde were so happy today that they couldn't stop smiling. They were chatting with the villagers outside and inviting everyone in to eat their wedding candy.
There were a lot of people gathered in the threshing ground outside the Jiang family's yard, and a few naughty children like Da Wang and Er Wang also came over to ask for wedding candy.
Erwang sighed, "I never thought that Xiaoliu's sister would get married."
Da Wang felt that the candy in his mouth seemed to have no taste. When he learned that Su Luo was going to get married, he felt strange in his heart. He was afraid that it would be difficult for him to see Su Luo in the future!
Jiang Xiaoliu knew his sister was getting married, and he was most reluctant to let her go. He took Su Luo's hand and asked, "Sister Luoluo, can you take Xiaoliu with you when you get married? Xiaoliu wants to play with you."
