Chapter 132 Scholarship
"He's only 21 years old, what a relief." Zhai's father said without even raising his head. He seemed relaxed now, but four years later, when Zhai Sheng was 25 years old and didn't even have a girlfriend, he wouldn't be as calm as he is now.
On the other hand, the results found by Mr. Li were certainly correct.
When Qiao Nan went to school to get his report card, he saw a bright red banner hanging at the school gate. It read: Congratulations to our student Qiao Nan for getting first place in the provincial high school entrance examination!
"Teacher Li." When seeing the Chinese teacher, Qiao Nan greeted him respectfully first.
Teacher Li looked at Qiao Nan, his beloved disciple, and his face turned red and blue, like a palette. Qiao Nan was very surprised: "Teacher Li, are you feeling unwell today? Do you want to go back and rest first?"
Anyway, the high school entrance exam is over, and even if the teacher of the third grade is on summer vacation, it doesn’t matter if Teacher Li doesn’t come.
"I'm not feeling unwell physically, I'm feeling unwell mentally." Teacher Li said angrily, "Do you know where you lost two points in Chinese?"
"..." Qiao Nan's mouth twitched: "I guessed a little bit."
"You..." Teacher Li said depressedly: "Forget it, forget it. Compared with last semester, you only lost two points this time instead of all points. It's considered that you gave me face and made a lot of progress." After that, Teacher Li showed a smile that was uglier than crying.
Qiao Nan got full marks in all other subjects except Chinese taught by Mr. Li.
This situation is normal for other students, but it is particularly abnormal for Qiao Nan.
Qiao Nan's compositions all received full marks, but she was deducted two points for recitation. These two points were like cutting off Teacher Li's flesh, making him neither proud nor angry.
But when he thought of the jealous looks his colleagues gave him, Teacher Li felt better.
The first place in the provincial capital's high school entrance exam was placed on his own student. The salary of the entire Grade 9 (1) teacher class was doubled this time, and the bonus during the Chinese New Year would also be much higher than usual.
It's not for the money. As a teacher, I hope to teach a few students who can get the first place in the provincial high school entrance examination in my lifetime.
What is this? This is called luck!
It is easy to imagine how much the Grade 9 (1) teacher liked Qiao Nan.
"Hurry up and go in." Patting Qiao Nan's shoulder, Teacher Li and Qiao Nan entered the classroom together.
Teacher Chen, who was already in the classroom, beamed with joy: "I believe that you have all seen the banner at the school gate when you entered. First of all, let us applaud Qiao Nan. Qiao Nan has not only won honor for our Grade 9 (1) class, but also for the entire Pingzhong. Let's applaud!"
As soon as Teacher Chen finished speaking, thunderous applause broke out in the classroom.
No. 1 in the provincial capital. Going out, I knew that I was once a classmate of the No. 1 in the provincial capital. What a proud thing it is.
Among the whole class of students, only Zhao Yu clapped weakly.
"Okay, now everyone take a look at your scores, and then compare them with last year's high school admission score line, and carefully consider which high school you want to apply for. After you go back, you can discuss it with your parents and fill out the application form." Teacher Chen had people distribute the things.
Seeing their own grades, some are happy while others are sad. Some did okay, while others did poorly.
"Qiao Nan, come with me to the office." After distributing all the things, Teacher Chen called Qiao Nan to the office alone: "Have you really thought about it? Have you discussed this with your parents?"
"We've discussed it, and my dad has agreed." Qiao Nan filled out his application in front of Teacher Chen.
Having successfully accomplished Qiao Nan's goal, Teacher Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
The principal of Pingzhong High School had specifically contacted him, hoping that he would do everything he could to keep Qiao Nan in Pingzhong. If Qiao Nan had any requests, he could just ask. As long as it was within the permitted scope, the school would help find a solution.
After hearing what his superiors said, Teacher Chen tried his best to help Qiao Nan get better conditions.
After all, after chatting with Qiao Nan last time, Teacher Chen probably heard that Qiao's family situation is not very good now. The parents are under great pressure to support two children to go to school.
Teacher Chen doesn't want a talented student like Qiao Nan to drop out of school and give up his studies just because his family doesn't have enough money. That would be such a pity.
After knowing Qiao Nan's problem, Teacher Chen wanted to help Qiao Nan get a lot more things.
"Qiao Nan, you got first place in the provincial exam this time, and you brought honor to our school. This is a reward from the school. It's not a lot, just one hundred yuan. But since you decided to go to Pingzhong for high school, the Pingzhong High School Department will also reward you with two hundred yuan."
Teacher Chen took out two envelopes in succession and handed them to Qiao Nan. The money in the two envelopes was a reward from the junior high school and high school departments to Qiao Nan.
"As for what you mentioned before, I have already applied. As long as you are willing to study at Pingzhong, the tuition and miscellaneous fees for three years will be waived, but you have to pay for the meals yourself. The school cannot cover them. Also, if your grades are still so good after you enter high school, the school will give you scholarships every semester. But by then, there will no longer be these one hundred or two hundred yuan rewards. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Don't worry, Teacher Chen. I understand. This arrangement is good." Qiao Nan smiled. In fact, she was really satisfied with this arrangement. It was only 1993. It was not like the 21st century when a grandfather could spend all his money just by going out to buy something.
The three hundred yuan was enough for her to pay for one or two years of tuition. Moreover, the school had waived her tuition and miscellaneous fees. She could save the three hundred yuan and future scholarships for her future college studies.
"Qiao Nan, you really make your teacher proud!" Teacher Chen was a little excited. If Qiao Nan was not a girl, Teacher Chen would have wanted to hug her.
Even if Teacher Chen treats Qiao Nan the same as his own daughter, she is a grown-up girl after all, so it is not convenient for Teacher Chen to do so.
"No, it's Teacher Chen and other teachers who teach well."
"You usually don't talk, but when you do, you know how to flatter me. Okay, let's go back. Remember to keep the money safe, don't lose it."
"Thank you, Teacher Chen. You've worked so hard." Qiao Nan bowed sincerely to Teacher Chen, then left with the 300 yuan award from the school.
"Hey, the top female student in our compound is back? Nan Nan, are you free during the summer vacation? Can you teach our Juan'er so that she can get the first place in the high school entrance exam?"
When a lady in the compound saw Qiao Nan, she showed envy in her eyes and said sourly.
Qiao Nan smiled indifferently, shook his head, and walked home.
