Mr. and Mrs. Gu Changcheng and Mr. and Mrs. Pei Shengtao each donated ten yuan, which once again moved the villagers.
Aunt Lu wiped her tears and said, "My family will set an example and donate fifty!"
Following the lead of the captain's wife, Qian Mei'e gritted her teeth and said, "My son is serving in the army. As a mother, I should be aware and contribute. I will donate fifty."
The other villagers were shocked by the "selfless dedication" of Gu Wanwan and others. Even Gu Qingtang and the old man in the cowshed, who were the most needy in the village, donated their family savings. How could they remain indifferent? They all donated money. A few donated one or a few yuan, and most of them donated only a few cents. Unlike Qian Mei'e, who had a son who was a soldier and sent money home every month, it was a token of their thought. If they really had no money, they would contribute with their labor.
The educated youth looked at each other. Not donating seemed like a loner, but donating would give them extra points in the competition for the teacher position, so they actively participated and donated just a few cents.

The educated youth did not dare to raise any opinions, because they did not donate as much as Gu Wanwan and the other two.
However, the new and old educated youth have different thoughts about the work of teachers. After all, teachers get paid and do not have to work in the fields. Now, the new and old educated youth who have fallen out with Gu Wanwan are regretting it in their hearts. If they had known that Gu Wanwan was so promising, they should have established a good relationship with her earlier.
Zhao Guoming handed the decision to Gu Wanwan and asked her in public, "Gu Zhiqing, do you have any candidates?"
At this time, Gu Wanwan was like a backbone, and everyone's eyes were focused on her, waiting for her answer.
