"Classmate Zhao Jiaojiao, when we get back to school, I'll give you a few days off. Go back and rest for a few days. You must be tired these past two days."
Zhao Jiaojiao was holding the radio in her hand. When she heard this, her eyes lit up and she said, "Thank you, Teacher Wang."
If it wasn't so late, Zhao Jiaojiao would have wanted to go back to Zhaojia Village immediately after returning to school.
Zhao Jiaojiao had just gotten off the bus and was swaying all the way, feeling like her whole body was about to fall apart.
When she was about to go back to school, she heard someone calling her, "Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao..."
Accountant Zhao came to the grain station to pay his taxes today. Because there were so many people, the sun was about to set. He finally paid his taxes and was about to go home. From a distance, he saw a familiar figure getting off a bus. When he saw the clothes, he felt even more familiar with the figure and shouted.
"father......"
As soon as Teacher Wang got out of the car, he saw his old classmate and smiled widely, "Third brother, congratulations."
"It's getting late, classmate Zhao, hurry back with your father!"
Teacher Wang waved to them and said he would tell the principal the good news to make them happy too.
"What's that in your hand?"
"Yes, Jiaojiao, why does this thing in your hand look like a radio?" A team leader saw the thing in Zhao Jiaojiao's hand and felt that it looked familiar.
"Dad, I'll get on the bullock cart first and we'll go home."
Accountant Zhao wanted to know what was going on with the radio before going home.
"Jiaojiao, hurry up and get on the ox cart. It's getting dark."
This time, all the ox carts in the team were brought to pay the public grain tax.
"What's going on?"
The others pricked up their ears and listened.
"Dad, Teacher Wang asked me to participate in a math competition, and this is the first place prize."
The first place prize?
"Girl, this radio costs several dozen dollars, and it also requires industrial coupons. Can you win it back?"
"Dad, haven't I been reading all day recently? I didn't tell you because I was afraid you'd worry. I really didn't expect that I could get first place in the exam."
"Jiaojiao is really amazing."
"Yes, reading is useful."
Accountant Zhao looked at the radio. When he was young, he wanted to buy one, but his family had no money. He had started a family and his children were still young, so he had no extra money to buy this thing.
He thought of the pen in his pocket, which was also given to him by his daughter on his birthday. It was a reward from the school.
Now that he has participated in the competition and won the radio, he has mixed feelings.
Along the way, these uncles asked one by one what the exam was and what it was about.
Zhao Jiaojiao didn't hide much, which satisfied their curiosity.
As soon as I returned to the village, this matter reached many people's ears.
When Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Zhao learned that Zhao Jiaojiao had won a radio, Zhao Jiaojiao's eldest uncle and second uncle all came to see.
There is no battery, so it cannot be put in. Actually, there are batteries, but Zhao Jiaojiao didn’t take them out, otherwise her home would have become a movie theater.
"Third brother, when are you going to town to buy some batteries? Let me hear what's playing on this radio." Grandma Zhao spoke directly. In fact, she wanted to take the radio back with her.
"Mom, batteries require industrial coupons. I exchanged the industrial coupons that Donglai mailed back for cloth coupons from other people." Accountant Zhao knew what his mother was thinking.
"Without batteries, I can only look. But third brother, I can come and listen after I get the industrial voucher." Uncle Zhao Er usually doesn't come to his younger brother Accountant Zhao's house unless he has something to do. It's not that they have a bad relationship, but they live a little far away. If he hadn't heard that Accountant Zhao's family had a new radio, he wouldn't have come today.
