Chapter 67
Li Yuanyuan's parents were extremely excited after seeing the report card, and pulled Li Yuanyuan over to thank Su Miao.
"Yuanyuan's total score was 285! It's much higher than the midterm test. I heard that Miaomiao has been helping her with her studies during this period. Uncle and auntie are really grateful to you."
Su Miao and Li Yuanyuan smiled at each other and said, "Uncle and aunt, this is the result of Yuanyuan's hard work. We are promoting each other, and the process of tutoring her is also consolidating my own knowledge. Besides, Yuanyuan and I are not only deskmates, but also good friends. This is what should be done."
Li Yuanyuan's parents exclaimed: "As expected, he is the best in the county. He speaks with great skill."
Su Yuanzheng looked at Li Yuanyuan's score sheet and said, "Every subject is above 90 points. This score should be enough for her to get into Yongcheng No. 1 Middle School."
Yuanyuan's father shook his head: "We don't know yet. We have to wait until the score line for No. 1 Middle School comes out to find out. We also hope to be admitted so that we can still be classmates with Miaomiao."
Su Yuanzheng said happily, "Yes, yes, yes! I hope both daughters can go in together so they won't be lonely. By then, our family will move to Yongcheng. Miaomiao said there are more development opportunities in big cities."
Yuanyuan's mother's eyes revealed longing: "No wonder Miaomiao has become so successful. It turns out she has a father like you who is willing to give up everything to support her. It's a pity that his father and I are both employees of the company. We can't be as independent as you. Every time I think about them leaving their hometown to study at such a young age, I always feel so sad."
"It doesn't matter! I'm here, how can I not take care of Yuanyuan? When the time comes, Yuanyuan will feel like she's back home and come back to eat with Miaomiao."
"Okay, okay! Then we'll borrow Brother Su's good words. Thank you in advance!"
After receiving the results, everyone officially graduated. The textbooks and learning materials have been moved back home, and the graduation photos have been taken and distributed to everyone before the exam.
The classmate whose family had a camera fulfilled his promise and asked his father to take a lot of photos of his classmates on campus. Students who wanted the photos could take the negatives to be developed.
It is not popular in elementary schools to hold thank-you banquets for teachers like in middle schools and universities, so once you leave the school gate, everyone will go their separate ways.
But Su Miao and his father were left behind.
Teacher Meng took them to a large conference room where all the school leaders were present, as well as a few strangers.
The principal waved Su Miao forward and introduced her to the strangers, "Director Zhang, this is Su Miao, and the person behind her is her father. Su Miao, these are all leaders from the Education Bureau. They've come here today to commend you for your outstanding achievements."
Director Zhang shook hands with Su Miao and Su Yuanzheng, and said with a very kind smile, "I just heard from the principal and the homeroom teacher that you have always been top of the class since childhood. You are very talented and study very hard. This is very good! Talent plus hard work can become a tank, helping you to overcome all obstacles and reach your destination."
He took a big red envelope from the deputy director beside him, which contained a thick stack of money, and said.
"Since Zheng received a perfect score in the entrance exam to middle school fourteen years ago, no one else has done so. Today, you finally did it again. This is a scholarship from the County Education Bureau. I hope you can maintain your current academic performance after entering middle school."
The principal said, "Director Zhang, Zheng Hui, our former classmate, is now working at our school! What a coincidence! She's Su Miao's Chinese teacher!"
Director Zhang was stunned, then burst into laughter. "I was wondering, how could we be so close? It turns out we're from the same lineage! Very good! The future is in the hands of young people like you. If you can help support your hometown after you graduate, that would be great!"
Su Miao nodded and said solemnly: "Ning County is where I grew up. If I have the ability in the future, I will definitely give back to my hometown."
Director Zhang handed the big envelope to Su Miao with satisfaction. A young man who was following him, with a camera hanging around his neck, came out and said with a smile.
"Director, Su, let's take a picture. I'd like to interview Su and her father and write a feature story to inspire other students."
Leaders are always busy with their work. This time, in addition to commending Su Miao, they also have other official business.
After taking the photos, the principal talked to Su Miao and Su Yuanzheng for a few words, then led the leaders to his office, and other school leaders followed.
Only Su Miao and his daughter, Teacher Meng and the young man were left in the conference room.
Su Miao pinched the envelope curiously, and the young man noticed. He smiled and said, "Five hundred yuan, specially approved by the bureau. It's the largest scholarship I've seen in the few years I've been at the Education Bureau."
Seeing Su Miao looking up, he continued, "Let me introduce myself. I'm the director of the Publicity Department of the Education Bureau. Just call me Xiao Zhang. I've asked you two to stay here to ask a few questions for a special report."
Being a director at such a young age, your future is limitless. Su Miao nodded and said, "Okay, Director Zhang, we will tell you everything we know."
"Hahaha! Calling me Director Zhang sounds so old-fashioned. Just call me Uncle Zhang."
Originally, this task today could be done by a subordinate, but Director Zhang often heard his old classmate Zheng Hui mention this favorite student and was very curious about her, so he decided to come with the director.
After a long interview, Su Miao made him feel extremely surprised. He did not expect that she was talented in learning and also had excellent emotional intelligence in dealing with people.
She acknowledged her talent and hard work, but did not show any pride. She thanked her family, teachers and classmates for their help, and her words were full of sincerity.
She can accurately describe several of her good friends, their different personality traits and hobbies, and each person comes alive in her description.
She can count the help each teacher has given her, even down to the minute details of how they held the pen while teaching her to write and a caring word.
What surprised him most was her family. He originally thought that such a bright, sincere and outstanding child would definitely grow up in a happy and complete family.
The fact is that her parents are divorced. She has strong feelings and respect for her father, but she has never said a bad thing about her mother.
She admits that most of her learning talent was inherited from her mother, and her current achievements are largely due to her mother's strict requirements on herself when she was a child, for which she is very grateful.
Such a child with a sunny personality can easily warm others and make people around her unconsciously draw closer to her.
He finally understood what his old classmate said: being Su Miao's teacher was her greatest achievement in her life.
