Chapter 478 A Touch of Guilt
Then, everyone saw Zhao Mancang take out two brand-new ten-yuan bills and put them in the hands of the two boys, encouraging them: "My dears, Tingyun, you two have received rewards, but you can't let your guard down. Next year, you must continue to work hard and strive to be number one again!"
I was so excited and thrilled!
They actually gave me ten yuan!
And there will be bonuses next year!!
Li Zhiqing followed up, saying, "The school has also decided to award the two of them ten yuan as encouragement to keep up the good work!"
The crowd reacted even more strongly, as if a new world had been opened up for them.
Whispering and whispering filled the air, creating a cacophony on the dam.
"You get twenty yuan for getting first place, which is more than you can earn working at home!"
“My grandson will be seven years old at the beginning of the year, just in time to send him to school in the commune.”
"Then I'll send my son to school in the spring too; who knows, I might get a bonus too!"
"Only the first place gets a prize. With little geniuses like Guaibao and Tingyun around, even if you send your child there, you won't get the prize."
"Exactly, we still have to waste money buying pens and notebooks."
Upon hearing this, Li Zhiqing cleared his throat and announced loudly, "The school has decided that the top three students in each class during the final exams will receive a bonus!"
This money was, of course, a donation from Gu Qingshan and Jiang Manyun.
Upon hearing this, people's hope was immediately rekindled. Their faces were filled with joy, and their eyes were full of determination. They had to send their children to school!
These parents all think their children are smart.
Although she can't compare to the child prodigies of the Chen and Gu families, she's definitely no worse than the other children, and still has a great chance of winning the prize money!
Then we'll be the ones who get all the glory and prestige!
Li Chunhua immediately decided to send Chen Xiaobao to school next spring.
Zhou Zhaodi felt even more certain that her decision to send Dabao and Erbao to school was the right one. She nudged Chen Jiandang, who was standing next to her, and said, "Look, you don't even have to wait until graduation. You can get money just by taking exams. As long as you study, you're sure to make a lot of money!"
"My wife is brilliant!" Chen Jiandang complimented with a smile.
Zhao Mei and Chen Jianguo thought they would go home and tell Da Ni and Er Ni to study hard and try their best to get into the top three.
Chen Jianmin and Liu Lanzhi weren't in a hurry. Their sons, Yulin and Yuqi, still had several years before starting school, so they would deal with it later.
Seeing everyone's positive response, Li Zhiqing couldn't be more satisfied.

Three days later, in the afternoon, Old Lady Li came again!
She planned to stay at the third brother's house for one night and take Sanni to town first thing tomorrow morning.
Thinking that thirty yuan would soon be in his pocket, he was overjoyed and didn't rush to ask for more.
Knowing that she would be taking Sanni to town to sell the next day, Li Chunhua finally felt a little guilty towards her eldest daughter. At dinner, she stir-fried a plate of cured meat and shared a lot of it with Sanni.
Sanni was immediately shocked, wondering what she was up to.
She didn't think this woman in front of her would suddenly change her mind and start liking a little girl!
Chen Xiaobao immediately protested: "Mom, why are you sharing the meat with Third Sister?!"
There wasn't much cured meat to begin with, and if we share it, there won't be enough for him to eat!
"There's more, you and Jinbao can have it all! Mom will make you something delicious again tomorrow," Li Chunhua coaxed, placing the cured meat in front of Chen Xiaobao.
Anyway, Sanni is leaving, and I'll still get seventy yuan. I can use that to buy a few more pounds of meat for my two sons!
Chen Xiaobao then stopped saying anything and buried his head in eating the cured meat.
