“Before I came, relevant leaders in the city called me and said that Leng You not only brought honor to our entire county, but also to our Tongyuan area and the entire province, and asked me to congratulate and thank Leng You on their behalf.
This... is a reward given to Leng You by our county, and this is a reward given to Leng You by the city.
I hope you will keep up the good work and bring glory to your alma mater and hometown after you go to Pingdu University.”
The secretary also took out two thick envelopes and handed them to Leng You.
"Thank you!" Leng You couldn't refuse.
Wen Jiuyue also followed suit and thanked him repeatedly.
Finally, everyone left. Except for Leng You and Hu Liu, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Although everyone had gained different insights over the years due to Leng You, this was the first time they had come into direct contact with such a powerful leader.
The four brothers of the Hu family were curious about the amounts in the envelopes, so Leng You handed them to them to open and check.
The school awarded 500 yuan, creating history. In the past, students who were admitted to key universities would only receive 100 yuan at most, after all, a high school could not afford that much money.
The Education Bureau awarded 1,000 yuan, which also made history. It was not easy for a government office with little money.
The city was wealthy and generous, and directly rewarded them with 2,000 yuan, which made the four brothers of the Hu family sigh in delight.
Leng Humo silently memorized these feelings. No matter from what angle, at least she saw the sincerity.
This money is nothing to her, but for a student in really poor conditions, it is like a life-saving help.
The school registration time is between September 10th and 15th. Today is August 20th. According to the plan, Leng You must arrive in Pingdu before September 1st. Excluding the time spent on the road, he only has about a week left to stay in the county.
Hu Liu insisted on organizing a grand ceremony, but Leng You firmly rejected him.
She didn't like such publicity. So what if it was a big event? She and Wen Jiuyue didn't have any relatives or close friends in this county except the Hu family and Liu Dazui's family. All kinds of flattery with strangers was not what Leng You liked or was used to.
If they really wanted to celebrate, the three families could just celebrate together.
Seeing that Leng You insisted, Hu Liu did not dare to force him, but he still secretly paid for a big meal out of his own pocket and treated his best friends to a big meal.
After the extreme joy, the sadness of separation soon came back again.
The Hu and Liu families were all depressed when they saw Leng You and Wen Jiuyue busy packing luggage and arranging various matters. Grandma Hu, Zhang Meilan, Wu Shuyu and other women even wiped away their tears secretly.
Leng You pretended to ignore the low mood of these people. On the surface, he seemed as calm as ever, but in his heart, he felt an increasingly intense and unrelieved pain.
No matter how hard it is to leave or how sad it is, the day of parting finally arrives.
Early in the morning on August 29th, all the members of the Hu family and Liu Dazui's family came to the courtyard early.
Grandma Hu, Liu Meilan and Wu Shuyu prepared a sumptuous breakfast, but no one ate it, even the little ones.
Hongzao and Wumao were all loaded onto the truck. Leng You specially arranged a truck to transport these "friends" who had been with her for many years, and the empty space on the truck was also used to load some necessary items.
Uncle Xiang drove the jeep to pick her and Wen Jiuyue up, and also loaded some of their more important things and clothes.
No furniture or other items were taken with them, as this small courtyard will be entrusted to the Hu family.
"Youyou girl, you must bring your grandma back to see us during the holidays!" Grandma Hu held on to the car window tightly with her hands and cried bitterly.
"Don't worry, Mrs. Wen and Miss Youyou, I will take good care of this family for you." Grandpa Hu's eyes also turned red.
"Niece, don't worry about the company's affairs. I will call you if there is anything that cannot be resolved. You must take good care of grandma and yourself, and don't let us worry!" Hu Liu, a tough man, actually had tears in his eyes.
"Aunt Wen, niece, we are waiting for you at home." How could Zhang Meilan hold back her tears?
"You must come back, you must come back!" Wu Shuyu cried even harder.
"Niece, we really...really..." Liu Dazui covered his face and sobbed.
"Boss, don't worry, I will keep an eye on my brothers and Xiaoling and prevent them from getting into trouble. We will study hard and not let you down." Boss Hu's eyes were red as he grabbed the car window on the other side.
"Boss, you said that you would take us to Pingdu one day. I've been waiting for it." Hu Laoer wiped his eyes hard.
"Big brother, we will listen to our eldest brother, study hard, and not make our grandparents and parents angry, don't worry." The tacit understanding between the twins made the third and second Hu wipe their eyes in exactly the same way.
"Boss. What should I do because I miss you? I can't bear to let you go now! I don't want to let you go, wuwuwuwu..." Hu Dasi cried loudly.
"Boss, I don't want you to go. I don't want you to go. Wuuuuuu... Wuuuuu..." Xiaoling cried even harder.
"Don't be sad, I will come back with grandma during the winter vacation." Leng You actually didn't want to come back during the winter vacation, but seeing that everyone was so sad, he had to change his mind.
"Yes, we will come back during Youyou's winter vacation. We will definitely come back." Wen Jiuyue held Grandma Hu's hands tightly through the car window and cried inconsolably.
Leng You's words comforted her somewhat.
"Uncle Xiang, let's go!" Seeing that everyone's emotions were getting more and more out of control, Leng You felt equally uncomfortable in his heart, and whispered to Uncle Xiang that this feeling was really bad.
The car drove away slowly.
"You must come back!"
"You must call!"
"Drive slower!"
"Call me when you get there!"
"Boss, I'm going to miss you."
"Boss, don't forget me."
…
The figure at the door became farther and farther away, and the sound became increasingly blurred, until everything disappeared.
Wen Jiuyue covered her face and cried silently, her shoulders shaking.
"Grandma, I'm sorry!" Leng You put his hand on Wen Jiuyue's back, feeling guilty.
She had to leave Daheishan Village where she had lived for most of her life and finally adapt to life in the county town, but not long after that she had to leave again for a completely unfamiliar place.
Leng You knew how big a challenge this was for Wen Jiuyue, and it was even a psychological torment, and of course an emotional separation.
"Silly child, what are you talking about? We are going to Pingdu! Grandma doesn't want to stay anywhere without you.
Didn’t you say that home is where the two of us are together? "
Leng You's words immediately stopped Wen Jiuyue from crying.
She knew Leng You was a sensitive child, and she couldn't let Leng You think too much.
